1042, all those who come to audition are future movie stars!!(2/2)
"Thank you, director..."
Finally he was sent away~
The unlimited artist training class in the early 1980s produced countless stars in Hong Kong in the future. Naoki Nagayama met the gentle Wu Qihua here, and even Miao Qiaowei, Xu Jinjiang...
Liu Fanggang almost called over all the handsome and younger actors, and asked Naoki Nagayama and his team to interview more than a dozen of them in one morning!
By noon, it was finally almost over.
"Yongshan Sang, please take a rest first." Liu Fang just came over and said, "Our sister Fang has booked a banquet at the Mayflower Restaurant to welcome Yongshan Sang..."
This is what Fangtai said before, catching the wind and washing away the dust!
Nagayama Naoki didn't mean to refuse. Guests did as they pleased, and he took Komori Masataka and Kijima Kyor and got into the prepared car.
In the private room of the Mayflower Restaurant, Nagayama Naoki once again saw Fang Yihua and a very old gentleman.
"Director Nagayama..." Fouta stood up and introduced as an intermediary, "This is my husband, Mr. Run Run Shaw of Shaw Brothers Pictures!"
"I have admired you for a long time!" Nagayama Naoki shook hands and said, "I have heard about Mr. Shao's fame in Neon..."
Run Run Shaw is 79 years old and is not in good health, but he still speaks very clearly:
"Director Nagayama's reputation is astonishing... It is rare for an Asian director to win an international award such as the Palme d'Or!"
"No, no, that's too much praise~"
After the two greeted each other, they sat down and chatted about the results of today's audition.
"There are many young talents in Hong Kong, and all of them are excellent..." Naoki Nagayama said, "But judging from the performance this morning, there are only one or two who fit the role of the new movie "Tiger of Ginza"..."
Run Run Shaw laughed:
"Haha, don't jump to conclusions so early. We at Shaw Brothers also have many artists who haven't had time to come over yet!"
Fang Tai answered from the side:
"We still have some connections in Hong Kong, and there are many young and potential artists in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Director Yongshan can take a look..."
"Thank you both very much!"
Nagayama Naoki raised his glass and toasted the two Shaw brothers.
Both of them are very enthusiastic, not only because of the request from the director of Fuji TV, but also because Naoki Nagayama is a famous director. He is also the head of the Shuyou Group and is now a shareholder of Fuji TV.
It can be said that Hong’s influence in the entertainment industry is already great.
Hong Kong is just a city. Compared with the neon entertainment industry, Hong Kong’s entertainment industry is not on the same level. In addition, the entertainment industry in mainland China is about the same.
If Shaw Brothers can get on well with Neon's tree friends and reach cooperation in the future, it will be of great benefit to both parties.
After all, Mr. Shao was already over seventy years old. After drinking a glass of wine and talking for a while, he began to show signs of fatigue, so he stood up and said goodbye:
"Mr. Yongshan, I'm not in good spirits, so I'm going to be rude..."
"It's an honor for me to have Mr. Shao come!"
Naturally, Nagayama Naoki would not be rude. For such an old man to welcome him and even toast him, it was already a great honor.
After watching Mr. Shao instruct Fang Yihua to entertain Nagayama Naoki well and then leave, the atmosphere in the box began to become active again.
After drinking, eating and chatting, TVB accompanied the reception staff to toast again and again, making Komori Masataka and Kijima Kyor's faces quickly turn red.
But Nagayama Naoki is just a little tipsy~
"Director Yongshan, have you been to Hong Kong before?"
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Youta began to chat with Naoki Nagayama about more everyday things.
"No, this is my first time here...but I know some Hong Kong artists."
"Haha, no wonder I was photographed by the paparazzi yesterday~"
Fang Yihua naturally knew that Naoki Nagayama and Jackie Chan were photographed together.
"I wanted to go shopping yesterday and happened to bump into Jackie..." Naoki Nagayama shrugged, "It's very common to be photographed by the paparazzi."
"Yes...Director Yongshan married a big star after all...Japanese doll"
"Hahaha~"
Although Nakamori Akina's reputation in the mainland is not as great as Yamaguchi Momoe's, her songs have spread to Hong Kong. Xu Guanjie's single "Japanese Doll" has been released, and Akina's title of "Japanese Doll" has also spread in Hong Kong.
However... there is no ambiguity in Japanese dolls in this era. In later generations...
Nagayama Naoki shook his head:
"If Akina knew that she was so famous in Hong Kong, she would definitely be surprised~"
"I heard you're pregnant?"
"Yes, I will be born in a few months!"
"Congratulations!"
"Thank you so much~"
"...."
This meal lasted until two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and the two servants were drunk.
Nagayama Naoki made an appointment with Youta. Today, he has met the members of the unlimited artist training class. Tomorrow, he will introduce some famous artists or potential artists in the Hong Kong entertainment industry to meet, not limited to male or female artists.
Let’s not talk about whether it is suitable for the role this time. After getting familiar with it this time, if there is a chance, we can cooperate in the future!
Under the escort of the driver, Naoki Nagayama and the other three returned to the Peninsula Hotel to rest... In the evening, they also had other plans!
After returning to his room, Naoki Nagayama felt a little confused, but decided to call Akina in Tokyo before going to bed.
I called a public phone booth at the airport after getting off the plane yesterday, but I haven’t called today yet!
.......
"Moses Moses..." Nonaka Mori's voice came from the microphone, "This is Yamazakura-in."
"Mrs. Nonaka, it's me..."
Nagayama Naoki said directly,
"Are Akina awake from her nap?"
Nowadays, Akina's body is getting heavier and she is easily tired mentally. She has to go back to sleep in the morning, go to bed at noon, and still have to sleep at night. It's like sleeping in an arhat.
"Hey, she's awake. I'll call her right away..."
Nonaka Mori wisely called the hostess.
After waiting for a while, I heard a familiar voice coming from the microphone:
"Naoki-san?"
"Akina..." A smile appeared on Naoki Nagayama's lips unconsciously, "Did you miss me the day after I was gone?!"
"No!" Akina said arrogantly, "I don't know how comfortable it would be to sleep on a big bed alone!"
"Ha~ You're so tough!"
Naoki Nagayama shook his head, he obviously slept with his arms in his arms every night!
"Hmph~"
After a little bickering, Naoki Nagayama talked about today's experience. He had already auditioned many candidates, and there were still a few days left to meet with different people, etc.
"We just had dinner, and there may be a drinking party tonight...so I'll give Akina a call now."
"Hey~~~ Is there a drinking party tonight~"
Akina caught the key word.
"This is how business entertainment is~" Nagayama Naoki comforted, "I have three days left in Hong Kong and will be back soon!"
Akina actually knew that with her husband's status, he would have a lot of social activities after he went out, so he just acted coquettishly:
"Naoki-san, please take care of your health and not drink too much..."
"More importantly, don't be taken advantage of by women who appear out of nowhere!"
"...."
Nagayama Naoki was speechless...but continued:
"Mingna is also very famous in Hong Kong! There is a song called Japanese Doll, which specifically mentions your name..."
"Oh? Really?"
Akina is not very familiar with Hong Kong, but she is very happy to hear that she is famous there~
"I'll bring you an album when I go back!"
"Naoki-san is the best!"
"..."
The phone call continued for another half an hour without realizing it. When the drunkenness set in, Nagayama Naoki hung up the phone and fell asleep on the hotel bed...
Chapter completed!
