Chapters 1374 and 1383: Beware! Full House has become a house full of Sadako!!
Keiko Fujita, a real estate agent who was once rumored to be kept by Naoki Nagayama, is now the head of real estate management and investment business under the Shuyu Group. From another perspective, she really was kept by Naoki Nagayama!
However, because they frequently need to travel to different places to view properties and need to directly interact with clients, they only have a main branch in Shinjuku.
"so."
Keiko Fujita rested her chin on her hand and looked at the silent Kijima Kyō and Komori Masataka, who had come with him.
"You're looking for a high-end garden like Yama-oka-in to use as a filming location, right?"
"Hi, preferably one that blends Eastern and Western architectural styles, with a modern look."
Masataka Komori added,
"Just like Naoki-san's Yama-okain, you know Yama-okain, right?"
"Of course!"
Keiko Fujita's face was full of pride.
"I handled the purchase and decoration of Yama-zakura-in Temple!!!"
Upon hearing this, Masataka Komori and Kyoro Kijima immediately became respectful. It seemed that this Keiko Fujita was a very senior figure, an elder even more senior than them!
The two of them originally wanted to contact a real estate company like Mitsui Fudosan, but after Yoshimura Otomo reminded them that their own family also had a real estate business, they finally got Fujita Keiko's contact information after several attempts and then arranged to visit her!
This flagship store in Shinjuku is very low-key; the brand name is "Koi-ka Real Estate." It doesn't fit the "tree friend" vibe at all! Why not just call it "Tree Friend Real Estate"?
Such a lucrative real estate business is something I've hardly ever heard of within the Shuyou Group!
In fact, this was specifically instructed by Naoki Nagayama. The money was originally intended for purchasing real estate, and he was repeatedly told to keep a low profile as the bubble was about to burst.
Otherwise, the resentment after the bubble bursts and housing prices collapse will find its way into those who made money from real estate!
"I'll have to think about that."
Keiko Fujita took some documents out of the cabinet and started looking through them.
"It's not easy to find a garden like Yamazakura-in in Tokyo!"
"Please, Fujita-san!"
Kyū Kijima and Masataka Komori bowed very respectfully.
"Other cities are fine too, as long as they are in bustling urban areas."
"That's it"
Fujita Keiko suddenly had a flash of inspiration,
"Oh right, you two are both in the film industry, right? You were involved in 'The Ring,' weren't you? The garden in Kyoto that was originally the location for 'The Ring' would actually be quite suitable."
"After the renovation, the scenery and everything is great, very upscale, and it's still empty!"
Keiko Fujita said with great interest,
"Buyers these days are too timid. They only used it as a filming location for a short time, and then they got scared and left it vacant. It's going to become a haunted house and a liability!"
"If you guys go and film this, especially a romance film, it would be perfect."
Keiko Fujita nodded her chin.
"What was that saying again? 'To bring good fortune'?!"
"Maybe we can even sell that courtyard!"
"."
Kijima Kyō and Komori Masataka exchanged a glance, their minds replaying the filming of "Ring," and they couldn't help but shudder.
Especially for Masataka Komori, who filmed the sequel, he felt a chill when he returned to that courtyard. Now they're going to film a romance movie there?!
Is this a film about a love story between a human and a ghost?!
Warning! Full House has become a house full of Sadako!
"No, no!" Kijima Kyō quickly waved his hand, "The energy in that place isn't quite right, let's not go!"
"Yes, yes. Let's not go there."
Masataka Komori quickly declined, explaining that he had fallen seriously ill after filming the sequel.
"For 'Full House,' it's best to choose a house that's romantic and cozy."
".Oh well!"
Keiko Fujita's face showed disappointment.
"Then let's choose this Western-style house in Azabu-Juban. It used to be the residence of the British, but they moved away later. The house has been modernized and the decoration is very high-end!"
"Do you want to go and take a look?!"
"Hi! Thank you for your help, Fujita-san!"
Naoki Nagayama saw the news in the newspaper in the morning.
Sure enough, someone found the tourist who took the photos, bought the photos of Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori, and published them in the newspaper.
However, we were in a hurry at the time, so the photos weren't very clear; all we could see was that it was indeed Akina Nakamori's face.
"The Nagayama couple went for a spring outing in the plum garden; Nakamori Akina was six months pregnant and her figure was plump."
Akina muttered the sentences from the report with resentment, as if she had suffered some kind of blow.
"Sigh, I guess I was told off after all."
"Isn't this normal? Your body will always change when you're pregnant, you can just lose the weight back later!"
Naoki Nagayama comforted him.
"Like when Hua Jiang was born, didn't she lose weight back to her original weight in just a few months?!"
"!!! Naoki-san, do you know how hard it is to lose weight?!"
Akina accused him with an angry look.
"Five months, five months! Do you know how I spent those five months?!"
"."
Naoki Nagayama was helpless.
"Isn't it just getting up in the morning to run, doing yoga in the morning, having chicken breast and salad for lunch, and going dancing in the evening?!"
"I'm with you, Akina!!"
Actually, losing weight isn't difficult for Japanese people; they can just eat the same amount of food as a normal person! And Akina even got Naoki Nagayama to work out with her!
"."
Akina was speechless. Indeed, Naoki Nagayama was often with her at that time. However, pregnant women can get angry and blame others when they are pregnant!
"It's all Naoki-san's fault!!!"
"Hey hey hey it's all my fault! But before that, let's eat first, okay?"
Xia Hua would occasionally glance up at her parents between meals, and thought they were really being ridiculous, how could they be distracted by such delicious food!
Unlike her, who never stopped holding the spoon!
"one more bowl!"
"You can't eat flower jam anymore, it'll make your stomach bloated!"
"."
As Naoki Nagayama continued flipping through the newspaper, he came across a strange story in the entertainment section: Is Jurassic Park real or fake?
"Some young viewers went boating to the island after watching the Jurassic Park trailer, wanting to explore it, only to be caught by security and sent back in disgrace!"
This kind of minor matter of arresting someone naturally didn't need to be reported to Naoki Nagayama, so he only found out about it now.
"Hmm?" Akina looked over with great curiosity. "Jurassic Island?!"
"Even from the nearest prefecture, Ehime, it would take at least ten minutes by boat, right?! You think you can just row there?!"
“Yes!” Naoki Nagayama exclaimed, “Human potential is indeed limitless!”
"He seems to be a high school student!"
"That means the potential of immature teenagers is limitless!"
Naoki Nagayama had high hopes for this young man named Kojiro Hoshino, believing he might one day be able to compete in the Olympics.
"It looks like this promotional video is really good and realistic!"
Akina nodded in agreement:
"Naoki-san, I want to go see the preview screening too!"
"no problem!"
After leaving home and arriving at the Tree Friends Building, Naoki Nagayama went to his office to put his things away as usual, only to find Eiichiro Watanabe waiting for him there.
"Eiichiro, come in quickly. Why do you have such dark circles under your eyes?"
Naoki Nagayama quickly led him into his office.
"The second phase of marketing for Jurassic Park should be almost finished, right? Is there still so much work to be done?!"
"The promotional work for the second trailer is proceeding according to the established plan, and the workload is not significant!"
Nowadays, most of the advertising in Japan involves finding channels and placing ads. Once you've found a few monopolistic advertising companies and prepared the materials, most of the work is done.
"I worked overtime last night to write a new promotional plan. I wanted to show it to Naoki-san this morning!"
"oh?!"
Naoki Nagayama, having taken off his coat, took the proposal and sat down to read it.
"This is actually using rumors and anecdotes?!"
Naoki Nagayama couldn't help but laugh when he saw the rumors in the proposal, such as "a mysterious company on Jurassic Island," "dinosaur cloning technology," and "that guy really built a park, and everything is just like in the book."
This kind of conspiracy theory-like and funny meme is similar to the Rothschild family, the Illuminati, and the Knights Templar, which have been circulating in Europe and America for a long time. If we take it to a more fantastical level, maybe there will be something like the Holy Grail, the Apple of Gold, or the Brotherhood of Assassins!
It has that internet meme vibe!
"Hahaha, have I become the real mastermind?!"
Naoki Nagayama was looking at one of the stories,
"Using cloning technology to create a clone army and rule the world?!"
"."
Eiichiro Watanabe laughed awkwardly.
"Otomo-san said Naoki-san wouldn't mind, so I created these stories."
"Haha, I never expected Eiichiro to be so talented!"
Seeing that Naoki Nagayama didn't seem to care, Eiichiro Watanabe explained:
"Actually, it also incorporates a lot of discussions from the audience. These people are the most talented!"
"Yes, yes, the people are the most creative!"
Naoki Nagayama closed the plan and said,
"It's okay, just promote it like this."
He naturally didn't care. Anyone with a certain amount of social experience wouldn't believe such rumors, which were just casual conversations. As long as it could increase the popularity of "Jurassic Park," that was fine.
"Hi!"
After receiving the proposal, Eiichiro Watanabe nodded and bowed repeatedly.
"I'll get on it right away!!"
I couldn't help but feel grateful; it's so great to have a boss who doesn't spoil the fun!
Watching his subordinate's disappearing figure, Naoki Nagayama shook his head. Having experienced the information explosion of the internet age, what did such rumors matter to him?!
Mark Zuckerberg, the founder who controls the world's largest social media platform, has been accused of being a lizard man!
After a brief moment of deliberation, Naoki Nagayama hurried downstairs to the editing room and began working diligently on the film's editing.
There are only two weeks left before the test screening, so the time is a bit tight!
Sugiyama Yoshihiko was originally a spy sent by Kadokawa to the Shuyu Group.
However, in recent years, with the rapid development of tree enthusiasts, the positions of the two sides have long been reversed, and the so-called nail has long lost its meaning.
Moreover, a wise bird chooses its tree to perch on. His current qualifications and background are all with the Tree Friends organization; whether he wants to return to Kadokawa is another matter entirely.
Starting last year, the higher-ups put him in charge of overseas distribution. With the support of his friends, he was able to establish an overseas distribution subsidiary and become its president, a powerful regional leader!
This year, he received even more support from higher-ups, allowing him to operate the distribution company in Los Angeles while lobbying the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Hollywood, hoping to get "Departures" into this year's Oscars.
Although the Oscar selection process appears fair on the surface, requiring over 5000 members to vote, it is like any film competition: if the right people are involved, the selection results can be manipulated!
Of course, this tactic doesn't involve such underhanded methods as directly altering vote counts. Instead, it involves using well-known film figures or film media outlets to express their opinions or publicly promote their views, thereby influencing all members.
Not all members have watched every single movie!
"But... what's going on at headquarters?"
Sugiyama Yoshihiko was somewhat uneasy at this moment.
"You want me to cooperate with Xiu Yi-san's actions?!"
"Is Shuichi-san coming to Hollywood? Is headquarters dissatisfied with my work?!"
"But we've almost spent all the money on lobbying, and the selection is in March!"
Because Shuyu Pictures and Shuyu Capital are separate entities, Sugiyama Yoshihiko was unaware that Shuyu Capital also had a Nakai Genta in New York, and that he had over $20 billion in funds there.
"Looks like I'll have to talk to the president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences tonight!"
There are no decent people among those involved in the film industry. As the president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and an American at that, he's naturally involved in everything from gambling and prostitution to drugs and prostitution.
Since arriving in Los Angeles, Sugiyama Yoshihiko has had quite a few interactions with him.
"However, this time there might be some blood involved!"
Fearing that his actions would displease headquarters, Sugiyama Yoshihiko decided to offer even more benefits!
How could a high-ranking official in charge of a region not be corrupt when he controls the profits and losses?!
Otherwise, why would everyone want to go from being a wage earner to a powerful regional official?!
Meanwhile, in New York, Nakai Genta was filled with excitement.
"Shuichi-san is coming to America!"
This means that his return to China is getting closer!
"We'll need to use some more funds, about five million US dollars?"
Seeing that there was only so much left, Nakai Genta didn't hesitate at all.
"Give it to him! Give it to him!"
"Just numbers!"
Even though they were restricted from leaving the country, Shuyou Capital's investment business did not stop. With its huge capital scale advantage and Naoki Nagayama's command, the funds in its account are now tens of millions more than when the stock market crash just ended!
No wonder some people say that once you reach a certain level of capital, you'll never lose it!
Now, if Nakai Genta wants to, he can artificially create a stock with consecutive limit-up days, attracting a lot of speculative capital to join in, and then cashing out at a high price to reap all the speculative capital!
However, due to the stock market crash, the US now has a circuit breaker mechanism, so this is no longer possible.
However, simply buying low and selling high has already made Tree Friends Capital a lot of money!
Nakai Genta has lost count of the zeros in the company's accounts!
"Shuichi-san came here with the Japanese Prime Minister. He will go to Washington first."
Nakai Genta silently made his plans.
"They will put pressure on us from above. I need to work with my legal team to prepare contingency plans!"
"Forget it, I'll go to Washington earlier and catch up with Shuichi-san then!!"
"And while we're at it, let's also let Shuichi-san experience the warmth of America!!!"
