It looks like a restaurant.

But when I opened the sliding door and walked in, my line of sight suddenly became wider. The large entrance hall could accommodate about ten people, and everything inside was covered with solid-color tatami mats.

Hearing the sound, a female general in kimono came out of the small cubicle next to us and asked us very gently about the room we had reserved.

After Yoshimura Otomo finished speaking, he said to Naoki Nagayama: "It seems like people from TV Asahi have arrived."

"It's earlier than us?"

"They are in Akasaka after all."

Yoshimura Otomo didn't care. It didn't matter if he had kaiseki meals a little earlier or a little later. This was just a gathering among friends.

Everything in Tsujiryu has a room structure. Different guests are in Japanese rooms separated by grid doors. If you want to expand the area, you only need to open the sliding door to create a large room.

Two people were already sitting at the low table in the Japanese-style room. Yoshimura Otomo greeted him warmly as soon as he entered:

"Boss Nakano and Section Chief Otake, I've kept you waiting for a long time."

"Minister Yoshimura is joking, we are just close, and we can't wait for Tsujiru's cooking. Haha~" the older man responded with a smile.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yoshimura Otomo also smiled and said a few polite words, and then stepped aside, revealing Naoki Nagayama behind him:

"Boss Nakano, Section Chief Otake, this is Naoki Nagayama, Shuyu's president Naoki-san, this is Yosuke Nakano, Director of the Planning Department of TV Asahi, and Hiroshi Otake, Section 1 Section Chief of TV Asahi Production Bureau."

"It's our first time meeting you. I'm Naoki Nagayama... Please give me your advice!" "It's our first time meeting you..." X2

After finishing speaking, he turned to Kawahara Takeharu aside: "This is my assistant, Kawahara Takeharu, who is responsible for coordinating artist-related matters."

Takeharu Kawahara no longer bowed to each other. Takeharu Kawahara asked for advice and respectfully handed over his business card, then sat aside without saying a word. It was his job to serve the wine at the wine table today.

Naturally, it was impossible to talk about anything serious at the wine table at the beginning. A few people sat together and started chatting about the kaiseki restaurant called "Tsujiryu".

"This is a store opened by the second generation of 'Tsuji Kaichi', and it has been more than 30 years ago." After all, Nakano Yosuke is older and is more familiar with this place, "When I first came here, the female general who served was

The daughter of 'Kaichi Tsuji' was still a young girl at that time! She was also very beautiful and had a good temperament..."

"Really? Haha~"

The Japanese-style room filled with men instantly felt relaxed. When the middle-aged female general wearing a kimono came in, she couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, time is a knife. Now her temperament is still very good...

Kaiseki Tsujiryu's cuisine, like other Kaiseki cuisine, retains the traditional and serious tea ceremony cuisine. It is famous for its strict requirements on ingredients and cooking techniques, and is famous for its small but refined cuisine.

The Huaili cuisine here tends to be light, without too many exciting seasonings, focusing on sweetness and freshness, pursuing the most authentic taste of the ingredients.

Nagayama Naoki and others tasted the seasonal sashimi, pickled side dishes, rich soup, and perfectly grilled beef... They were almost all in one bite, and at most they tasted ordinary.

.

However, during this period, Naoki Nagayama became familiar with the two people from TV Asahi, and the chat became very relaxed.

After taking the last sip of tea, Yoshimura Otomo said: "It really tastes good..."

"Yes, it really lives up to the name of kaiseki cuisine."

"However, I didn't eat much in the morning, and it's far from enough now~" Yoshimura Otomo said with a smile, "Director Nakano, Section Chief Otake, let's go to the next show!"

"Haha, okay!" Otake Yushi, who is in his thirties, laughed, "I am still a young man, how can this be enough!"

"Shameless! Obviously the real young people are here!" Nakano Yosuke pointed at Nagayama Naoki and said.

Nagayama Naoki also joked: "Yeah, I'm still growing..."

"Hahaha~"

...

A few people left the basement chatting and laughing. In Akasaka, a place full of delicious food, they quickly found a banquet restaurant famous for its various drinks during the banquet...

After a few glasses of sake, it became easier to talk.

While chatting, the topic of TV programs came up. Yoshimura Otomo said:

"TBS's "TEH Best Ten" and Fuji TV's "Night Hit" are both very famous music programs, and their rankings have great influence in the entire entertainment industry."

Nakano Yosuke sighed: "Yes, in comparison, our Asahi is a bit inferior in this aspect."

During this period, TV Asahi also had music programs, but not even a name was left in history, leaving no impression at all in Naoki Nagayama's future memory.

Naoki Nagayama consoled him: "TV Asahi leads the way in criminal investigation dramas and medical dramas. In addition, it has a long-lived program like "Tetsuko's Room", which is still very important in the hearts of the audience."

"Sigh... We can only rely on these traditional TV series and cartoons to survive now. They are only slightly better than TV Tokyo, but..."

Nakano Yosuke glanced at Nagayama Naoki,

"Since "The Three Cat Eye Sisters", TV Tokyo has become more and more active in late-night shows. Variety shows and TV series have made progress in addition to cartoons..."

Nagayama Naoki was a little embarrassed... Suddenly he heard the name "Cat Eye Sisters". Did TV Tokyo actually start paying attention to the late-night slot because of this drama?

"Well...it was just an accident."

"I heard that Naoki-san is also very successful at Fuji TV. Not only did he plan "Twilight Meow Meow", but also the recent interesting "Newspeak Buzzword Award" was also planned by Naoki-san?"

"Haha, it's just the right time."

"There are still two TV series with very good ratings!" Yosuke Nakano exclaimed: "It is really enviable for Fuji TV to cooperate with an outstanding creator like Naoki!"

Otake Yushi, the head of the first section of the production bureau, said under the influence of wine:

"I heard that in addition to Fuji TV, Naoki-san has cooperated with TBS and TV Tokyo. Apart from NHK, the only one that has no connection with TV Asahi is TV Asahi. Are you looking down on our TV Asahi?"

"This is nothing!" Nagayama Naoki quickly explained and quickly toasted to the two of them.

Then he looked at Yoshimura Otomo and asked with his eyes →_→:

"Didn't Otomo-san mention to them that this time we came here just to talk about program cooperation?"

Yoshimura Otomo also gave a look (◎o◎):

"No, it's just a meeting with friends today to get acquainted with each other for a while. Regarding the program, I think it's better to talk about it after we get familiar with it."

In fact, according to Yoshimura Otomo, today is just the first meeting. We will meet again in the next few months before we can talk about the program. Generally speaking, this is the normal negotiation process in the entertainment industry.

Just like falling in love, how can one say "I want to sleep with you" as soon as the scene begins! It's not Ah Q!!

Seeing that the faces of the two TV Asahi people were a little red, and they were still wondering why they didn't meet earlier, Naoki Nagayama felt... It seemed that his attitude could be a little higher!

He drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and said vaguely:

"Yes, if we had gotten to know Director Nakano and Section Chief Otake earlier, we might have been able to collaborate with TV Asahi on the great idea we just planned."

"What's a good idea?"

"Ah, it's a program that I originally agreed with Nippon Broadcasting Corporation to compete with "THE BEST TEN" and "Night Hit"."

Naoki Nagayama pretended to have drunk too much and spoke without hesitation, "NTV has been suppressed by Fuji and TBS since the establishment of the channel. I am very unhappy!"

Audio program? NTV? Arena?

Such keywords suddenly touched Nakano Yosuke's rationality. The battle-hardened man quickly swallowed a few mouthfuls of spicy dishes to stimulate his nerves, and then continued to inquire:

"What kind of sound is it?"

"Ah, the name is "Music Station". It is a chart-based music program sorted by a unique algorithm, and it also has many unique program modules..."

Nagayama Naoki began to talk about the general process of this program. The attractive points made Yosuke Nakano and Yushi Otake, who are professional producers, return to the high ground of reason and start to evaluate.

However, this program is a super audio program that has been tested by history, so it naturally has its excellence that people can recognize. Yosuke Nakano and Yushi Otake nodded their heads after listening to it.

"Just hearing this is very attractive. Have Naoki-san's ideas been perfected? I really want to know the whole show!"

Naoki Nagayama drank another glass of wine, as if he had relaxed:

"Ah, yes, I remember the planning document is in the car."

Then he said to Kawahara Takeharu who kept pouring wine: "Takeharu-kun, go to the car and get that plan!"

A question mark appeared on Takeharu Kawahara's head. Isn't the plan in the briefcase in the room? Or did you ask me to bring it over?

At this moment, Yoshimura Otomo, who had long understood his friend's thoughts, interjected:

"Naoki-san! That's for NTV! I haven't shown it to them yet!"

"What!" "Minister Fangcun, you are no longer a friend!" "You don't believe us?!"

After Nakano Yosuke and Otake Yushi heard this, they immediately became "angry" and began to drink. They said that if they were not shown it first today, it would be a bad idea!

After having several drinks with Fangcun Dayou, he could only agree with a "headache": "There is really nothing I can do against you, Mr. Wu Chun, go get it, it's in my briefcase..."

.”

"?" There was also a copy in Otomo-san's briefcase? Although Takeharu Kawahara was still puzzled, he just went to get it silently.

Nagayama Naoki continued to exchange cups with the two people, while still talking about Yoshimura Otomo:

"What are Otomo-san afraid of? Show Nakano-san and Otake-san what's going on! TV Asahi has its own music program, and they won't steal our planning!"

"Yes, yes, we are just curious!"

Nakano Yosuke and Otake Yushi seemed to regard Nagayama Naoki as a stupid young man with no experience in the world, and started drinking heavily.

"I want to see what's so special about Naoki-san's creativity..."

Yoshimura Otomo is still complaining over there: "But it's all Naoki-san's fault. He said that it can't be made public until it is completed. I made those people who don't know anything wait for a long time! We have agreed with NTV that the program must be planned before being released.
To be continued...
