"That's even more enviable! I also want to receive such a gift!" Koizumi Kyoko said in frustration, "Unfortunately, my birthday is still half a year away..."

But...whether any fans would spend huge sums of money to celebrate Kyoko Koizumi's birthday...this was not within her scope of consideration.

As the two sat down, the air in the studio seemed to start to flow again, and everyone started chatting again.

However, there were many people paying attention to the area near Akina Nakamori, and some even came over to chat...Tahara Toshihiko, relying on his familiarity with Akina Nakamori, hurried over and asked:

"Akina-chan...it's Naoki-san, right? It must be his, right?"

Nakamori Akina rolled her eyes, neither admitting nor denying... In this studio full of cameras and microphones, who knows if there is a machine recording the highlights.

"What a big deal! Three airships...it will cost a lot of money!" Toshihiko Tahara also realized it and began to change the topic.

"About a few million?" Yu Hayami answered from the side.

"It should be more than..." Tahara Toshihiko said.

"I really want it...Junjun, please give me one on my birthday!" Kyoko Koizumi interrupted.

"what are you thinking about!"

Then everyone started discussing how much it would cost to celebrate a birthday like this and where to customize it.

Akina Nakamori, who was originally somewhat independent in the circle, suddenly found herself at the center of a group of idols.

The entertainment world is such a realistic place. If you have capital and fame, you will be the center of everyone's attention...and there is no doubt that today's attention belongs to Akina.

Kondo Masahiko originally wanted to join that group, but when he thought that they were all talking about Nagayama Naoki, he felt upset, so he turned to talk to the older host Mari Yoshimura, and asked Mari Yoshimura

Very amused...

.......

Naoki Nagayama, who has been talked about many times by everyone, is at the Samadhiju Teahouse in Shinjuku at this time.

Yesterday afternoon, I went to visit Yuko Tanaka and discussed the publicity matters before the shooting. Today, he specially invited Takeshi Kitano to the teahouse for tea, and by the way, he also invited Masaki Kobayashi.

Inside the private room on the third floor...

"Naoki-san... Why do you think of coming to drink tea with me, an old man..." Masaki Kobayashi smiled and looked at Naoki Nagayama who was pouring tea opposite, "Isn't it the right time for young people to be here all the time?"

Are you thinking about making some big news?!"

The old director pointed to the sky with meaning~

He knew about the relationship between Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori when "Love Letter" was released.

After all, they were friends for many years, and Naoki Nagayama didn't hide anything when they were chatting.

"Hahaha, the news has already come out~" Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "Just let the airship continue flying..."

"Today's young people really have more fun than our generation..." Kobayashi Masaki took a sip of the fragrant top-grade Gyokuro tea. "At that time, the most I could give was clothes and jewelry. If you had money, you would give jewelry."

...At most, they only give away cars and real estate, which is not like now..."

"Times are evolving...and as directors like us, we can even tailor-make a movie as a gift!"

Naoki Nagayama smiled modestly.

"Hahaha, it's indeed a good idea..." Kobayashi Masaki nodded in agreement.

"Actually, I invited Masaki-san here today because I want to ask you about something..." Naoki Nagayama then got down to business, "I also made an appointment with the leading actor of the next movie today, Takeshi Kitano.

A tough guy, and a bit vicious..."

"Ah, him, I know him."

Masaki Kobayashi nodded. He had some impressions of this actor and had met him a few times. After all, although his face was not handsome, it was very recognizable.

"My next movie is called "The Summer of Kikujiro," and it is a comedy..." Naoki Nagayama said, "Takeshi Kitano plays a dissolute middle-aged uncle who is paralyzed by life, but he still has something in his heart.

There is a sense of innocence..."

The plot of Nagayama Naoki-chan and Kobayashi Masaki have been discussed. The story line is very simple, but if you want to shoot it well, you need strong skills.

"So what's Naoki-san's problem?"

"Although Kitano Takeshi is very suitable for this role, he is too young now. The character in my movie is more like him more than ten years later..." Naoki Nagayama said.

"Although you can use makeup to increase your age, but how to make a young actor act like he will be more than ten years later... I would like to ask the experienced Masaki-san for advice."

"That's it..." Kobayashi Masaki lowered his head and thought for a while, "I may need to see the actors before I can have an idea..."

"Well, that's why I invited Kitano Takeya to come over. He should be arriving soon..."

"Then we'll talk about it after seeing it..."

The two of them continued to drink tea and chat about the current gossip.

Within ten minutes, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and Takeshi Kitano, who looked slightly menacing, walked in wearing a proper shirt and trousers...

"Naoki-san..." Kitano Takeshi greeted Nagayama Naoki first, then looked at Kobayashi Masaki next to him, "Director Kobayashi, I didn't expect you to be here too..."

"Haha, Naoki-san specially invited me here today..."

"Kitano-san, please sit down." Nagayama Naoki asked Kitano Takeshi to sit down and poured him a cup of tea. "Because of the filming of the movie, I have some questions, so I asked Masaki-san for advice..."

Nagayama Naoki talked about Kitano Takeshi's role, which made Kitano Takeshi a little confused:

"Me in ten years?"

"What should that look like?"

Kobayashi Masaki looked Kitano Takeshi up and down... At this time, Kitano Takeshi was less than forty, the age at which a man reaches his peak...

The muscles are well developed, the skin is tight, and the whole person's spirit has the hard-core style of a Showa man. If his face were not a bit more fierce, he would look similar to Takakura Ken...

Kitano Takeshi's hair stood on end when he saw Masaki Kobayashi, and then he heard Masaki Kobayashi say:

"In more than ten years...first of all, the hem of the shirt will no longer be tucked into the pants!"

"Eh?!"

Naoki Nagayama and Takeshi Kitano both looked over in confusion.

"Haven't you seen those middle-aged and elderly swingers? They basically wear shirts in summer...and they are very loose..." Kobayashi Masaki said with a smile, "That's how cool you are!

"

He continued:

"Also, Takeshi Kitano, you are too strong... After more than ten years, even if you exercise, you will lose weight... and become the so-called lean..."

"Hi..." Takeshi Kitano nodded subconsciously, this old man did have something.

"You can't keep your back so straight..."

"Don't show your gums when you smile..."

"The hair should also be permed and made a little fluffy, preferably thinner..."

Naoki Nagayama not only listened, but also took out a small notebook and recorded it. This was the accumulation of decades of experience of director Masaki Kobayashi. Even if he had a complete memory of the film, he might not be able to shoot it perfectly.

But he looked at Kitano Takeshi. Other changes in appearance were easy to explain, but this figure... how to become thinner and leaner in a short period of time...

Do you want to be like a certain Batman actor who can freely control his weight? Only eat an apple a day?

This... what if Kitano Takeshi starves to death...
