Chapter 540 538, I Will Never Understand the Friendship Between Girls

Chapter 540 538, I can never understand girls’ friendship~

In the morning, when Nagayama Naoki went out to visit Taro, he checked the mailbox. There was nothing in it except newspapers.

What kind of gift will you give?

Naoki Nagayama, who was walking on a familiar street, was very curious and absent-minded while walking. Even Taro couldn't help but stop and wait for his master several times.

When he came back from the walk, his pace was obviously faster, hoping to see it earlier.

"Naoki-san, Merry Christmas!"

Kenta Yokota, the owner of the newsstand, greeted them cheerfully. The small newsstand was also decorated with lanterns, as well as elk, snowflakes, red hats and other hanging decorations, creating a very festive atmosphere.

"Ah, Yokota-san, Merry Christmas!" Naoki Nagayama responded subconsciously, and then asked casually, "Is Tokyo still safe on Christmas Eve? Did anything big happen?"

"Haha, except for the news about bosozokus bombing the streets, the rest are just ordinary entertainment news." Kenta Yokota also chatted casually.

"By the way, "The Ring" is Naoki-san's movie, right? There seem to be several reports in the entertainment section discussing it."

"'Midnight Ring'?"

Nagayama Naoki was curious. This movie has been released for almost a week, and those who should comment have already commented. I shouldn't have arranged any promotional materials during this time?

"Hi, it's in the entertainment section of the Yomiuri Shimbun. It is said that many moviegoers were so frightened that they fell into a coma."

"Huh?" Naoki Nagayama was a little surprised. Logically speaking, there had been such big news during the premiere, so everyone should be mentally prepared.

Kenta Yokota asked in a low voice: "Naoki-san, is Sadako really so scary? Can she scare the director to the point of peeing?"

Nagayama Naoki suddenly realized that "Midnight Ring" is a niche movie after all. Although its reputation has begun to spread among some young people, to the public, it is more famous for being associated with the scandal of Fukasaku Kinji.

But it’s already Christmas. Tomorrow, the 26th, most people in Japan will have their annual holiday. By then, students and working people will have time to go to the cinema. That’s when this horror movie will be released!

"Ah, I think it's okay. Yokota-san can give it a try!" he said to the store manager.

"Haha, let my son see it first before talking~"

Kenta Yokota handed over the newspaper, and Naoki Nagayama subconsciously paid.

"Arigado, Yokota-san. Then I'll go back first~" Nagayama Naoki took the newspaper and thought about going back to read it, and hurriedly said goodbye to the shop owner.

When he hurried to the entrance of Yamazakura-in, Nagayama Naoki once again realized that his family had clearly ordered "Yomiuri Shimbun"!

I actually bought an extra copy. "Yokota-san really knows how to do business!"

With such a sigh, Nagayama Naoki bent down and checked the mailbox, taking out all the letters and newspapers, but there was still no trace of the gift. Could it be that Akina had forgotten it?

"Woof woof!" Yutaro suddenly barked twice, and then stopped immediately.

Nagayama Naoki thought he wanted to come in. He looked at the dog's tail wagging vigorously and touched his head: "You are so anxious, are you hungry?"

At this moment, he suddenly felt darkness in front of his eyes, and a pair of cold hands covered his eyes. Naoki Nagayama almost subconsciously turned his hand around and slapped him, a bully in his heart!

"Guess who I am?"

A voice with a changed voice came from behind, and Nagayama Naoki's muscles relaxed.

"Akina! Why are you here!"

Turning around, I saw that it was Akina wearing a windbreaker, a beret, and a dark blue knitted scarf, but her face was flushed by the cold wind.

Nagayama Naoki happily held Akina's hand, felt the coolness, and quickly asked, "Why are your hands so cold? Have you been waiting outside for a long time? Why don't you go in?"

"Because I knew Naoki-san was taking Taro Taro out, so I hid here to give Naoki-san a surprise!"

Akina's face showed a childish look. Sure enough, people who fall in love will become stupid. Nagayama Naoki wanted to pull Akina into the house.

"Ah, that's right. Naoki-san bent down."

"?" Nagayama Naoki didn't know why, but he still lowered his head slightly.

Then he discovered that Akina had taken off the scarf around her neck, and then wrapped it around Naoki Nagayama.

"This is a gift for Naoki-san, a scarf knitted by Akina-sama herself!"

The scarf that had just been taken off his neck carried the body temperature of his girlfriend and the faint scent of shower gel. Naoki Nagayama was very moved and gently hugged the girl who was waiting for praise in front of him:

"Arigado, Akina~"

Although it is normal for lovers to hug each other, it is a bit like being executed in public when you are still in front of your house early in the morning and you can still see pedestrians on the road not far away from time to time.

After hugging her gently for a while, Nagayama Naoki quickly pulled Akina into the gate of Yamazakura-in.

"Mingna, have you had breakfast?" she asked as she walked towards the house.

"No." Akina touched Yutaro's head and smiled, "I came here as soon as I got up in the morning~"

"No work today?" Nagayama Naoki opened the door.

"Because the party last night was at midnight, I can rest in the morning and there will be an announcement in the afternoon."

Nakamori Akina was explaining when she suddenly stopped because she saw a pair of women's shoes in the shoe cabinet at the entrance!

All kinds of thoughts suddenly came to Akina's mind. Scenes from urban dramas she had watched before suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, including one-night stand, cheating with the male protagonist, and a third love affair.

"Naoki-san, whose shoes are these?"

"Ah?" Nagayama Naoki had already changed his shoes and was helping Yutaro take off the dog leash. When he turned around and saw the shoes, he was suddenly stunned.

"Ah Bai. I forgot."

"?" Akina felt that her head was in a state of confusion. Could it be because she didn't spend Christmas Eve with Naoki-san?

At this time, both of them heard a female voice coming from the kitchen in front: "Are you back? Breakfast is already ready."

Then, the sound of slippers came over, getting closer and closer.

Then, a girl's face was revealed, and the two people at the entrance stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes. For a moment, Yamasakura Yin fell into a strange silence.

Yingtaro looked left and right, and saw that his master was no longer untying the dog's leash. He had no choice but to twist twice, take off the remaining leash, and then pass between several people with a bang. , he is going to eat dog food.

"Ah, breakfast is ready." Nagayama Naoki reacted, looked at the two girls, and twitched the corners of his mouth, "Tsuruko, did you cook more? Akina happened to not have breakfast either."

".?!"

On Christmas morning in Showa 58, Tsuruko Nagayama discovered a big secret about his brother!

At the dining table of Yamazakuin, Nagayama Naoki, Tsuruko and Akina were eating breakfast in silence.

Although it is a traditional Japanese breakfast of white rice, miso soup and side dishes, Naoki Nagayama has already adapted to it.

The rice is definitely enough. The dishes were originally only made for two people, but if they are evenly mixed and add a little pickles, they will be almost full.

Nagayama Naoki originally wanted to read the newspaper, but when he saw Tsuruko on the dining table looking at Akina with his eyes, his little girlfriend was timid and scared at this time, and did not even dare to look at Tsuruko. .

Alas, I can’t stand it!

"I mean Tsuruko. He just eats when he eats. He always keeps an eye on what Akina is doing."

Tsuruko finally changed the target and asked Naoki: "Ni-chan, are you and Akina-chan dating?"

"Isn't this already obvious?" Naoki Nagayama didn't hide anything. Girls all came home early in the morning. What else could he say? "What's wrong? Can't I fall in love?"

"That's not the case." Tsuruko poked her rice bowl with her chopsticks. "It's just that the person I always saw on TV suddenly became Ni-chan's girlfriend. It feels unreal."

"Haven't you met Akina several times~" Nagayama Naoki said, "We even went out to play together!"

"It's very strange that someone I know suddenly becomes Ni-chan's girlfriend!"

"." Nagayama Naoki shook his head and could only let Tsuruko slowly digest it.

It was a very difficult breakfast, but I finally finished it.

The three of them sat in the living room and rested for a while. However, Akina Nakamori was a little restless at this time. Seeing Tsuruko was actually nothing. After all, they were all acquaintances, but this time she added the identity of her boyfriend's sister. .

However, they were all young people who knew each other. After a stalemate with each other for a while, they still spoke:

"Mingna, your face seems a little red. Is it an allergy?"

"Ah, maybe there was a cold wind in the morning. I have sensitive skin."

"That's not possible, let's protect it with face cream."

With that said, Tsuruko took Akina to the second floor to whisper. Naoki Nagayama, who was left in the living room, shrugged and began to read the newspaper alone.

There have been a lot of reports about "The Ring" in newspapers, but in addition to praise, there are also some very strange reports that compare "The Ring" with other movies released this year, and they are both disparaging and disparaging. The level of this movie seems to say that this horror movie is just scary for the sake of being scary.

"Tsk, who is causing trouble behind this?" Nagayama Naoki sneered, "Horror movies are not for the purpose of horror, then I might as well make literary films!"

"Besides, I have already introduced Miss Sadako to you."

Such a disgusting little trick is a bit disgusting. Nagayama Naoki thought for a while and decided to ask Otomo-san to find someone to counterattack in the newspaper tomorrow, so as to give the public some Sadako shock!

While they were complaining, the two people who went upstairs actually walked down the stairs arm in arm. Suddenly, the awkward atmosphere turned into best friends, and it didn't seem out of the blue at all.

"What's wrong?" Akina asked, looking at Naoki Nagayama's surprised expression.

"You guys, why are you reconciled?"

Tsuruko said from the side: "Hagani-chan, we didn't quarrel! It's just like this!"

".I will never understand the friendship between you girls!" Nagayama Naoki raised his hands in surrender.

"How about we go shopping now?"

Nagayama Naoki feels that he can’t understand girls’ jumping thinking

This Christmas is actually very difficult for Fukasaku Kinji.

On the one hand, he was really undergoing treatment, but on the other hand, due to the scandal, he had to choose to temporarily isolate himself from the entertainment industry and recuperate at home.

Therefore, there are no more flattering juniors in the company, no more flattering "friends" in the entertainment industry, and no more pride and joy in the spotlight.

Even Keiko Matsuzaka, who has been in love for many years, cannot come to see him because of his wife Nakahara Kusanae at home.

He has nothing left.

"Honey, there's a visitor. It's Fumio Ishikawa from the Academy Awards Selection Committee." Nakahara Kusanagi knocked on the door of the study, and then walked in with a shrewd middle-aged man.

"Director Fukasaku, Merry Christmas~" Fumio Ishikawa bowed to the old man on the chair and greeted him.

"Ah, Ishikawa-san." Kinji Fukasaku was not too happy. He waved his hand to let his wife, who was pouring tea, go out. "How's Ishikawa-san?"

He and Fumio Ishikawa had only met a few times.

"I'm here on behalf of President Tomoyuki Tanaka to visit the pillar of the Japanese film industry." Fumio Ishikawa complimented.

"Hahaha, pillar. Shouldn't it be a laughing stock now?" Hearing the compliment, Kinji Fukasaku felt a little better, but still laughed at himself.

"No, no, it's just a small scandal." Fumio Ishikawa advised, "People in the entertainment industry will not deny Director Fukasaku's talent and achievements because of this, and President Tomoyuki Tanaka won't either."

In fact, Kinji Fukasaku is often exposed to sex scandals, which is not a big deal in the entertainment industry. If it weren't for the fact that this "being scared to incontinence" hurt his dignity as a director and a man, he wouldn't have stayed at home for so many days.

"Yeah," Kinji Fukasaku nodded. He had read today's newspaper and knew that during this period, Tomoyuki Tanaka had been suppressing the spread of "Midnight Ring" in the media.

This time it was for the exchange that Yamada Yoji had discussed last time: "Then thank President Tomoyuki Tanaka for me. His works are also the role models that our younger directors have been learning from. I have contacted some friends and will re-examine "The Makioka Snow"."

"President Tomoyuki Tanaka will be very happy to hear this." Ishikawa Fumio nodded. Today's purpose has been achieved. He decided to continue to exchange a few words and then say goodbye.

At this time, Kinji Fukasaku sat up straight with a serious face: "Ishikawa-san, what small moves has Juyou Eiga made recently? Have they hyped me up?"

"Juyou Eiga. Director Idou Shuichi seems to be in contact with a group of people from the film academy recently, and seems to want to use "Hot Blood High School" to impact various awards." Ishikawa Fumio continued to think, "As far as I know, Juyou Eiga has not actively used Director Fukasaku's scandal to hype it up."

"Is that so?" Kinji Fukasaku's face changed. If he were in a different position, he would definitely use the opponent's scandal to achieve the greatest benefit.

All directors will contact friends in a small circle to impact movie awards, and there is nothing wrong with Idou Shuichi's approach.

It's just that "Hot Blood High School" was also a movie that Kinji Fukasaku manipulated, and now all resources are used to suppress "Midnight Ring", so there is no way for that movie.

When Kinji Fukasaku came to his senses, he saw that Fumio Ishikawa had finished his cup of tea, so he said:

"I'm sorry to bother you to come over today. Please thank President Tanaka for me."

Fumio Ishikawa also understood:

"Hey, it's great to see that Director Fukasaku is fine. I believe I'll see you at the film selection soon.

Well, I'll take my leave today!"

Kinji Fukasaku bowed slightly, and after watching his wife send him away, he called out:

"Wife"

"Bring the phone book in my room. I want to call President Kido of Shochiku."

He still wanted to prevent "Hot Blood High School" from winning the award!

Kinji Fukasaku was different from Shuyou Eiga. He decided to do his best and use whatever means to deal with his enemies!
