Tokyo Bubble Life

Chapter 775 Chapter 783, if this matter is not implemented, the entire tree friends will be shocked!!!
In the cold autumn wind, the maple leaves turn red and then fall, the light grass turns brown and withers, and all that remains is the traces of frost on the ground in the early morning.

The continued drop in temperature tells people in Tokyo that winter is approaching.

The "Love Journey" that caused a sensation some time ago has ended. Before winter, everyone had a full meal of dog food and was envious of the love between Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori.
However, what they don’t know is that they may soon face a critical blow from this screen couple again.

"Naoki-san" Sugiyama Toshihiko expressed his opinion at the meeting at the end of the month, "Although I didn't come to Naoki last year, should the re-release of Love Letter be put on the agenda?"

"Love Letter" and "Snow Flower". Representatives of winter romance.
This was the publicity direction that was decided during the filming. Every winter, the movie will be released again.

"Yes," Naoki Nagayama nodded, "Has Zhiyan-san understood the strategy for the premiere?"

"Hi!" Sugiyama answered seriously, "It was released together with the first snow at the premiere. I have to say, I have never seen this promotional method of combining the first snow with a movie before!"

"This is the most beautiful promotion form I have ever seen in my career! Naoki-san is really a role model for our generation!"

Sugiyama Toshihiko was generous in praising Naoyama Naoki, and even the look on his face was very sincere, which made Naoki Naoyama, who was sitting in the main seat, feel a little embarrassed.

"Hahaha, Zhiyan-san is so good at flattering people, he will definitely be successful in the future!"

"Naoki-san is really amazing!"

Realizing that if he continued, this meeting might turn into a boasting session, Yoshimura Otomo immediately returned to the main topic of the meeting:
"Zhi Yan-san, since the previous promotion was so good, then we should prepare in advance this time and keep an eye on the weather changes!"

Then he turned to Naoki Nagayama and said, "Naoki-san, should we communicate with Ms. Akina Nakamori and promote Snow Flower more during the snow?"

"Well, I'll mention it to Akina~" Naoki Nagayama nodded, "And notify all the major record stores. I won't say how long it will take, but on the day it snows, at least they should play this song on repeat~"

"Hi!"

While a few people were talking, an important matter for the end of the year had been decided, and all that remained was the execution.

Next, they discussed the preview of "Hot Blood School 2", the filming of "The Ring 2", and the announcements and plans of various artists.

When Yoshimura Otomo finally decided to adjourn the meeting, only Naoki Nagayama, Yoshimura Otomo, and Idou Shuichi were left in the meeting room.

"."

After a brief silence, they looked at each other, and Yitang Xiuyi spoke:

"Well, let's discuss the most important thing next!"

"Yes. If this matter is not implemented, the tree friends might be shocked!" Naoki Nagayama nodded with a serious expression.

Fangcun Dayou supported his forehead with his hand, looked at the two people's funny faces and shook his head:

"You two! It's just about the year-end bonus, is there any need to be so dramatic?!"

Idou Shuichi rolled his eyes: "How else can we show the temperament of these two famous directors!"

"Yes, yes!" Naoki Nagayama also agreed~
"."

Yoshimura Otomo should be ashamed of himself for starting a company with two such guys!
"Okay, okay, no more jokes." Nagayama Naoki smiled and said to Yoshimura Otomo, "Otomo-san, will the year-end bonus be assessed according to the previous method?"

"It's different now~" Fangcun Dayou handed two documents to the two people next to him, "Since the Shuyou Group was restructured, the affiliations of each employee are different, and the year-end bonuses have also changed."

Shuyou Pictures, Shuyou Entertainment and the headquarters of Shuyou Co., Ltd. have actually been divided into different groups with separate finances, and the year-end bonuses based on revenue are naturally different.

“Since the finances are separated, the year-end bonuses should indeed be different.”

Naoki Nagayama looked at the plan thoughtfully. He thought of his most profitable company this year - Shuyou Capital. He also had to consider giving them year-end bonuses!

"Shuyou Entertainment's main business is brokerage, which also includes dividends from the music label Rebellion."

"Is it Ozaki-san's place?" Nagayama Naoki was a little curious when he suddenly heard a familiar yet unfamiliar name. "Does that place have a lot of dividends?"

"Hi! Ozaki Yutaka has become a popular male singer, and his record sales are very impressive."

Yoshimura Otomo looked at Naoki Nagayama and found that this guy had an extremely good vision. In order to release new songs, he just casually set up a music label and was able to earn the same profit as other small agencies.

Now, Rebellion, the music label with only Yutaka Ozaki, is like Ken-On, which only had Akina Nakamori, a year ago. The cash cow is already showing signs of growth.

"That's great~" Naoki Nagayama smiled happily.

Fangcun Dayou explained in detail the plan to give year-end bonuses to employees of Shuyou Entertainment Branch based on their performance, and specifically mentioned:

"By the way, Naoki-san, according to the plan you mentioned before, we should give the new song to the idol artist with the best performance this year."

"Ah, that song "Time after time ~Flower Dance Street~"

Naoki Nagayama has not forgotten,

“So who’s going to get the song?”

"Based on her performance, it should be Aoyama Chikako"

This year, Chikako Aoyama not only achieved a good result of top ten in the Oricon chart with "ありがとう (Thank You)", but also contributed good acting skills in the subsequent "Blue Sea", making her the most outstanding idol of the year.

"Chikako-chan, ah, just give it to her!" Naoki Nagayama had no objection, and the matter was settled.

"Hey, Naoki-san can give it to her officially when we review the results at the end of the year."

Yoshimura Otomo further explained the plans for the corners, and then it was the part of Shuyou Film.

Yi Tang Xiuyi looked at the distribution plan in his hand with an indifferent expression.
He had no questions about the plan. From the current perspective, Shuyou Pictures was undoubtedly the most profitable business unit of Shuyou Group. No matter how you looked at it, his employees would not receive less year-end bonuses this year.

"For Shuichi-san, you only need to score according to your usual work." Yoshimura Otomo said. Anyway, he knew how many movies he had made this year. "As for the movies that have not yet been released, they will be counted until next year."

"it is good!"

When leaving the meeting room, Komori Masataka found Naoki Nagayama:
"Naoki-san, regarding the preview of "Hot Blood High School 2", I hope Naoki-san can also attend."

"I?"

"Hey, after all, "Hot Blood High School 1" was produced by Naoki-san and Shuichi-san, and the two are the founders of this IP," Komori Masataka said sincerely, "If Naoki-san attends the preview interview, it will bring a lot of heat to the movie."

Naoki Nagayama patted Masataka Komori on the shoulder with relief:

"Masataka-kun has really grown a lot. He has learned to use all his resources!"

If Naoki Nagayama, a celebrity with high traffic, attends the press conference, then the news about the movie will definitely be all over the media. In addition, the IP "Hot Blood School 2" which is in the same vein will also get a lot more exposure.

Naoki Nagayama did not refuse this request. After all, it is the duty of every senior to support his junior director, not to mention that he is the boss of Shuyou.
Seeing that Naoki Nagayama agreed, Komori Masataka was obviously very happy:
"Thank you Naoki-san!"

"By the way, Brother Feng will be here too, right?" asked Naoki Nagayama.

"Hi, I've already notified Brother Feng, and he said he won't be late!" replied Masataka Komori.

"That's good~"

Nagayama Kaede's KTV has now opened in Nagoya, and the two newest branches have opened there, and it is very busy now. I heard that there is a shortage of manpower now, and the "old people" on my grandfather's side are no longer enough.

I was able to take time out to attend the preview this time. On the one hand, it was to support Naoki Nagayama's film, and on the other hand, it was also to commemorate his last film. It is highly likely that he will not come to make a movie in the future.
After the morning meeting, Shuichi Ido quickly ran back to DreamWorks in Ota Ward to continue the production of "The Ring 2", while Naoki Nagayama had lunch with Otomo Yoshimura and then came to Shuyou Capital in Ginza.

Today he helped to arrange an appointment with Haruki Kadokawa to come to Shuyou Capital to discuss the purchase of Fujitsu General's shares.

"Naoki-san, Haruki-san is expected to arrive in a while~" Yoshimura Otomo sat on the sofa in Naoki Nagayama's big office, looking at the scenery outside, "Sure enough, the scenery in Ginza is very nice! It's much more open than the studio!"

"Isn't one of our tasks next year to move to a new headquarters?" Naoyama Naoki smiled, "Then Otomo-san will be able to see a similar view!"

"An entire office building! Naoki-san is really generous!"

The matter of changing Shuyou’s headquarters has been discussed for almost a year, and we have several alternative buildings. However, it is very troublesome to buy an office building in the center of Tokyo!

"We will become stronger and stronger~" Naoki Nagayama laughed.

While the two were chatting about their daily lives, Nakai Yuta also walked in:
"Naoki-san, the meeting room is ready and all the relevant materials are ready."

"Well, then we just have to wait for Haruki-san~" Nagayama Naoki looked at Nakai Yuta and thought of what happened in the morning, "Yuta-san, speaking of which, have you considered the year-end bonus issue of Shuyou Capital?"

"Year-end bonus?" Nakai Yuantai seemed to be reminded, "Oh, yes, year-end bonuses are given out at the end of the year."

"."Yoshimura Otomo was somewhat speechless, "Hasn't Yuan Tai-san ever given out year-end bonuses before?"

"Well, I worked at Mitsubishi Bank right after I graduated, but I was asked by Naoki-san to start a business not long after I started working there. I never received a year-end bonus."

Nakai Yuta recalled that he had worked in the bank for less than two full years, and was sent abroad for half a year. After that, he and Naoki Nagayama made a fortune by investing in stocks in the United States and became a billionaire.
After that, I resigned and helped to establish Shuyou Capital. To be honest, I never even received a year-end bonus, which makes me feel a little regretful!
Naoki Nagayama laughed: "Then it's your turn to distribute it to the employees! Are you still a little excited?"

"Naoki-san," said Nakai Yuta, "We are an investment company. According to convention, the bonus is determined by the final boss! Communicate with employees on comp day."

"?What's the meaning?"

"That is to say, everyone's total salary is decided by you!" Nakai Yuanta looked at Nagayama Naoki, "and the amount is entirely up to you."

Generally speaking, the total remuneration of an investment bank is composed of base salary and bonus. The bonus ratio is several times higher than the base salary. However, the process of excessive bonus is not transparent and the boss has absolute discretion!!!

"Why is this happening to me again?" Naoki Nagayama scratched his head, looking very annoyed.

"Yes, and it requires secret one-on-one communication between the boss and the employees, including me." Nakai Yuta smiled, "Naoki-san, I'm waiting for you to give me a bonus!"

"."

Naoki Nagayama felt like he had dug a big hole for himself.

The three of them chatted in the office for a while, and then Kanai Tsukaka from the front desk came over and knocked on the office door:
"Naoki-san, Enta-san, and Director Yoshimura, the people from Kadokawa Group have arrived."

"Oh, you're here already~" Naoki Nagayama said to the other two people, "Let's go, today is the day to make a lot of money!"

"Haha~"

Several people walked to the conference room, pushed open the door, and saw Kadokawa Haruki and three shrewd and serious subordinates waiting there.

"Haruki-san!" Naoki Nagayama and Haruki Kadokawa shook hands. "Welcome to Shuyou Capital."

"It's a really nice place." Kadokawa Haruki said politely, and then introduced, "The three people next to me are Kadokawa's legal team."

Naoki Naoyama nodded and introduced:
"Well, next to me is the head of Shuyou Capital, Nakai Yuta. And Otomo-san, haha~"

"Haha, yes, and Otomo-san~"

Haruki Kadokawa also laughed, and the originally serious atmosphere in the meeting room was diluted.

After distinguishing the host and the guest and sitting down, Kadokawa Haruki began to speak:

"During this period, we have learned about the merger between Fujitsu and General Air Conditioning." It was a secret before the merger, but it was much easier to find out after the merger. "Naoki-san, you now own 10% of Fujitsu General's shares! That's amazing!"

"Haha, Mr. Haruki, do you know the details of our acquisition?" Naoki Nagayama said with a smile.

"I'm not too sure about this, but I heard about Naoki-san's confrontation with the board of directors at the shareholders' meeting. I heard that Fujitsu General's chairman added two seats in a row, but it didn't stop your share acquisition."

"Well, that's because they didn't dare to fight to the death. That was already a critical period for mergers and acquisitions~"

Kadokawa Haruki opened his eyes wide: "Could it be that Naoki-san really knew the inside information before?"

"About this point," Naoki Nagayama showed the legendary half-smile on his face, and then gave the opportunity to Nakai Yuta to show off, "Yuta-san, please tell Haruki-san!"

Nakai Yuta immediately became excited and started talking about the "taxi story" with several people from Kadokawa.
Haruki Kadokawa across the street seemed to be listening to a fairy tale.
Hearing from the taxi driver that the two companies were communicating frequently, he guessed that there was news of a merger? And then he took a desperate gamble and took out a loan to buy the shares of the general?!

In the end, I actually made the right judgment!!!

Is this a joke from an investment bank? ! !

Even jokes can’t be so exaggerated!!
Not only Haruki Kadokawa, but even the three senior legal advisors on the opposite side widened their eyes. It was the first time they heard such a story in all their years of working in the industry.

"Naoki-san," Kadokawa Haruki looked at Nagayama Naoki and said doubtfully, "You didn't make up a story to deceive me, did you?!"

"Haha, Haruki-san, just go ahead and investigate, otherwise I'll get arrested for insider trading!" Nagayama Naoki smiled, "Maybe you'll get the next merger intelligence!"

"."

Kadokawa Haruki stopped talking, but in his mind he was calculating how much it would cost to acquire the taxi company.
The subsequent meetings went very smoothly because of the advance communication, and the final signing was also very smooth.

Kadokawa Group used 300 billion and 1% of Kadokawa Shoten's shares to buy 5% of Fujitsu General's shares from Shuyou Capital, along with two seats on the board of directors.

The funds will be paid in installments throughout next year.
After all, even for Kadokawa Group, it is not easy to obtain 300 billion in working capital in a short period of time!

Naoki Nagayama still owns 5% of Fujitsu General's shares, and he will express his intention to sell them at the year-end shareholders' meeting. If there is no major shareholder to acquire them, he will slowly sell them off on the stock market.

"Congratulations, Haruki-san," Naoki Nagayama said as he shook Haruki Kadokawa's hand before leaving. "Kadokawa will enter the industrial sector in the future."

"Haha, I really want to buy all the other shares!" Kadokawa Haruki shook his head. It was a pity that the capital was not enough.

"Haruki-san, if you know anyone who wants to buy it, please let me know. I'll accept anyone who comes."

Naoki Nagayama said as he saw Haruki Kadokawa out.

“This makes me think about it.”

Kadokawa Haruki also responded seriously that if he wanted to move from the publishing industry to the home appliance industry, he would also need some allies.
It would be best if the cross-holding stakeholders are willing to do so.
When only Nakai Genta and Yoshimura Otomo were left in Shuyou Capital, Naoki Nagayama was surprised to find that it was already past four in the afternoon.

"Time flies so fast!"

Looking up through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the sun has already started to set!

Nakai Yuanta sat on the sofa like Ge You and breathed a sigh of relief: "Naoki-san, in just a few hours, a transaction of more than 300 billion was completed! It's unbelievable."

"It's only 300 billion, what's there to be afraid of?" Naoki Nagayama said with a smile, "We still have 300 billion to close the deal!"

"As expected, if you spend too much time with Naoki-san, you won't even be sensitive to numbers!"

Yoshimura Otomo also sighed. He claimed that he had seen a lot of the market, but this was the first time he had ever experienced a transaction of this magnitude.

"There will be more in the future!" Naoki Nagayama comforted the two old friends.

"More?"

"Yes, I feel that the international situation will change next year. Japan's economic situation is so good, the exchange rate between the yen and other currencies may change."

Naoki Nagayama vaguely mentioned the Plaza Accord next year.
"Keep more money on hand, there are still many opportunities to make money."

“?!!” “!!!”

Nakai Genta and Yoshimura Otomo looked at each other in surprise and decided to prepare according to Nagayama Naoki's instructions. They already knew very well that this was a super, super thick golden thigh!
