Chapter 804 812, Why can't there be a Naoki Building? !
When we arrived at the studio, Yoshimura Otomo and Idou Shuichi were already waiting in the conference room. Today was an important day for Shuyou, and neither of them wanted to be absent.
"Naoki-san!" Yoshimura Otomo introduced a middle-aged man in formal attire, "This is Mr. Akimoto Toshiya from Sumitomo Real Estate. He is in charge of the purchase, renovation and relocation of our new headquarters of Sumitomo."
"Akimoto-san, this is Naoki Nagayama, the president of Shuyou~"
Qiu Yuanjun also showed a warm smile: "President Nagayama, it's our first meeting, but your name has already been heard by many people."
"Haha, Mr. Akimoto, nice to meet you, thank you for your guidance!" Naoki Nagayama bowed slightly and said hello, "Thank you for troubling you this time~"
"No, no, no, this is what we should do!"
Qiu Yuanjun did not show any reluctance on his face. After all, with this order, the commission alone was enough to make him smile. What's more, there were also renovation and relocation work to do later. It can be said that all the performance indicators for the first half of this year have been completed!
After a brief exchange of greetings, Yoshimura Otomo said:
"Since we're here, Naoki-san, let's go check it out!"
"Yeah~" "It's time."
Naoki Nagayama and Shuichi Idou both nodded in agreement~
"Hi, I'll get the driver ready to go."
Qiu Yuanjun also hurried out to prepare. He had made all the arrangements for today. In order to pick up three people at a time, he specially rented an extended Lincoln!
Naoki Nagayama and his group walked out slowly from behind, occasionally greeting the studio staff, walking at a relaxed pace, just like students going out for a walk.
"Come to think of it, it seems like we haven't gone out together as a group for a long time." As he was leaving, Idou Shuichi sighed, and looked back at the door of the photo studio behind him, "I never thought that the small Shuyou Club would have to change its headquarters! It turns out that the photo studio can no longer keep up with the pace of Shuyou~"
"Shuuichi-san, you should wait until the new headquarters is confirmed before you express your feelings!" Yoshimura Otomo took the lead and boarded the stretched Lincoln. "We will have to stay in the studio for at least half a year!"
Naoki Nagayama patted Shuichi Idou's shoulder:
"Haha, the studio will still be a part of TreeFriends. We can return to our roots and use it to shoot magazine photos again."
"Forget about adult magazines~" Yoshimura Otomo interrupted, "I want serious magazines!"
"Otomo-san, weren't the photos we took before for legitimate magazines? They were all legal!" Idou Shuichi rolled his eyes while sitting in the car, "Don't forget, those magazines supported us in the beginning!"
"I know, I know," Yoshimura Otomo said perfunctorily to comfort Idou Shuichi, "Anyway, if there are orders, let Shuichi-san pick up his hobby again!"
"."Idou Xiuyi stopped talking~
Naoki Nagayama watched the two bickering with a smile, and then asked Akimoto Toshiya next to him:
"Akimoto-san, where are we going first today?"
"Naoki-san, let's go to the office building in Shinjuku today. It's a 7-story stand-alone building."
As we chatted, the car soon arrived at the bustling district of Shibuya.
This white extended Lincoln finally stopped at a block in Nishi-Shinjuku's 4th chome. If Higashi-Shinjuku is a place with everything from food, drink and entertainment, Nishi-Shinjuku is full of businesses and offices, making it very suitable for starting a company and business receptions.
After Naoki Nagayama got out of the car, he saw tall buildings in the distance, but unfortunately that area was basically not for sale.
Qiu Yuanjun also brought his group to a slightly crowded street, where the office building they were going to see today was.
"Naoki-san, Otomo-san, Shuichi-san, this is it!" Akimoto Shunya said, pointing to a white building in a row of buildings.
Naoki Nagayama looked up and saw a whole row of 7-story office buildings. This white one was very recognizable. It looked like a crowded apartment building in the old city in the future.
In such a core area, the distance between this building and the adjacent buildings is only the width of a car. The low main entrance is hidden at the bottom and can only be seen when approaching.
After walking in, I found that each floor was divided into four large offices. The office areas inside were also divided very precisely, as if to make the most of every square meter of space.
"This office building was built in 50. Originally, there were tenants on each of the seven floors. However, as rents increased, many companies moved away. The landlord wanted to open a foreign trade company, so he planned to sell the building to gather funds."
Qiu Yuanjun also introduced it non-stop.
"It has complete water and electricity facilities, convenient transportation, and is very close to the west exit of Shinjuku Station. The final overall selling price is 35 billion."
Neither Yoshimura Otomo nor Idou Shuichi felt anything was wrong. They were both very accustomed to the atmosphere of this Japanese-style office building and were observing every corner of the office building very carefully.
They even discussed the approximate division of departments and where to put their own offices.
However, Naoki Nagayama became somewhat dissatisfied when he saw that the aisle could only accommodate two people walking side by side. Especially when he saw the window of the office building next to him, which he could basically just step over.
"It's a little small. It's not convenient to bring the equipment in~"
Even the studio didn’t feel so crowded.
Qiu Yuanjun was also paying attention to the customer's expression. After hearing what Naoyama Naoki said, he quickly explained:
"Because I mentioned it when I asked for it before, Shuyou currently has a photography base in Ota Ward and a photography studio in Chiyoda. So this headquarters is only used for office work."
"Indeed it is"
Naoki Nagayama nodded, but even if it was just used for office, there should be storage space and rest space inside.
He thought of the modern companies that will flourish in the future, such as Apple, Microsoft, Alibaba, NetEase, etc. The headquarters buildings are more spacious than each other, and they have public restaurants, open entertainment spaces, and even indoor gardens.
Is it true that Japan is too petty in everything because of its small land area? Even office buildings are so fussy.
"But I think it should be bigger and farther away from the neighbors." Naoki Nagayama looked out the window facing the street, where there was a high-rise building with more than 30 floors.
"No problem!" Qiu Yuanjun was also confident, "The next two places we go to are bigger than this one."
"Hey, let's go take a look."
The land price in Azabu-juban is higher, but since it is a five-story office building, each floor is indeed much larger than the one in Shibuya.
But Azabu Juban has better housing. These office buildings are old and outdated.
Finally, the group arrived in Ikebukuro~
"Naoki-san, this building will definitely meet your requirements!" Akimoto Junye vowed and led the group to the vicinity of the literary and artistic seat.
"Forehead"
Looking at the familiar scenery, Naoki Nagayama whispered to Idou Shuichi, "Shuichi-san, it's not going to be a literary seat, is it?"
"I haven't heard that the cinema is going to move." Idou Shuichi shook his head, "Maybe it's next door."
At the entrance of a solid-looking building in Ikebukuro's 3-chome, an extended Lincoln stopped.
"Mina-san, we're here~" Akimoto Jun also opened the car door and asked everyone to get out.
Naoki Nagayama walked out and saw that it was located right on the corner of the street. It had a new-looking stone facade and was seven stories high, with a clear distinction between the first floor and the floors above it.
"This is a SOHO building that was built two years ago," said Akimoto Jun, who led everyone in from the nearby entrance. "We originally planned to use it as both office and residence, but there are too many young people in Ikebukuro and the rent is not affordable."
"The landlord's company recently needed to focus on international business, so it was put up for sale."
"There are currently no tenants under contract~"
It's just a commercial and residential property, and you're talking about it in such a high-sounding way. Naoki Nagayama curled his lips. It turns out that real estate developers like to innovate in name only.
Although it doesn't look very eye-catching from the outside, once you walk into the office building, you will find that the lobby on the first floor is well divided. There is a front desk and lobby as well as a waiting area and several larger office areas.
The upper floors also have large public areas, but there are also other small rooms that have been divided into small spaces. However, they are all decorated in plain style and can be changed at any time.
Naoki Nagayama took a look and found that there was a balcony on each floor, and there was also a large terrace on the second floor.
"This place is much bigger than the previous two places."
Qiu Yuanjun also heard this and smiled: "Yes, and it's very new. The related power system and sewage system are very good!"
Like the other two places, there are even tangled wires on the street outside the door.
"Shuuichi-san, Otomo-san, what do you think?" asked Naoki Nagayama.
"Well, the appearance is very stable and grand~" Yoshimura Otomo, who is older, likes this point very much, "It gives people a sense of solidity at first glance."
Japanese companies have a tradition of visiting each other, and brokerage firms are even more sociable, so this appearance is a plus.
"Where's Xiuyi-san?"
"I think the space is big enough and we can all fit in one floor~" Yi Tangxiu nodded, "Isn't it a bit wasteful?"
"Haha, Xiuyi-san, we want to develop!" Naoki Nagayama laughed. Shuyou has not stopped recruiting people since the reorganization, and the number of employees is constantly increasing. "Now we are almost 200 people, and there will be more in the future! And the people invested by Shuyou will also be here in the future."
"That's true~" Yitang Xiu smiled.
"With such a large space, we can each have an office!" Naoki Nagayama said on the top floor.
"This"
The three of them looked at each other and laughed. The address of the new headquarters was almost decided!
"It just so happens that the three of us haven't been out for a long time~" Naoyama Naoki saw that it was noon and said to the two of them, "Let's go have a meal!"
"Haha, okay~"
"Don't drink!" Yoshimura Otomo reminded, "We have other work to do this afternoon!"
".What a bummer!"
Outside the TBS Hall, Akina Nakamori finished recording a program and hurried towards the underground garage.
"Akina-chan, why are you in such a hurry?" I happened to run into Koizumi Kyoko.
"Ah, because we have to go to Yokohama this afternoon." Nakamori Akina quickly explained, "So we have to hurry!"
"Hey~~~ I wanted to have lunch together!" Koizumi Kyoko said regretfully, "Then how about going shopping together on the next day off?"
"Okay! It's settled!" Akina Nakamori agreed happily.
After parting with his friends, he hurriedly walked towards the car. The assistant Ueda Maki who was following him was a little surprised:
"Akina-chan, there's no rush for the afternoon schedule. The shoot starts at three, so you can still eat lunch."
Akina Nakamori said as she pulled the car door, "It's better to arrive earlier. Let's rest in Yokohama!"
"."
Ueda Maki had no objection and turned to the other side to open the car door, but she heard Akina Nakamori's voice:
"Private Masai, Maki-chan, can you please sit up front?"
"???"
"I want to take a short break."
Ueda Maki frowned, thinking that Akina was very strange today. Not only did she look very excited when she was picked up in the morning, but she also looked absent-minded when it came time to record the show.
Are you worried?
The assistant glanced at Akina in the rearview mirror. She looked so carefree and it didn't seem like she had anything on her mind!
Eh?
What did Mingcai-chan take out of her bag? A stack of manuscript paper?
Was it a contract? Lyrics? Fan mail? Or something else?
Why did you start watching it seriously?
Wait, my breathing seems to be a little rapid, and my face is red? !
"Could it be a love letter?!"
The young assistant had a lot of messy thoughts in his head, but fortunately at this time, Ming Xingfang put his luggage away and sat in the driver's seat.
"Akina-chan, where are you going for lunch?"
"Just find any one." Xiao Mingcai didn't even take his eyes off the manuscript paper. "I'm not hungry for now."
"Okay." Ming Xingfang started the car, "In that case, let's go to Yokohama to eat seafood hot pot."
"It's all right~"
"."
Mingcai, who is always greedy, is so careless about food! Ming Xingfang couldn't help but look at it in the rearview mirror.
At this time, Akina Nakamori was completely immersed in the plot of "Paradise Lost"!
I didn't want to bring it out at first, but after reading a few chapters in the morning, I felt very reluctant to leave. So I still brought it out secretly!
The stack of manuscript paper in my hand is all the manuscript paper. It’s Naoki-san’s fault for only writing the first ten chapters!
"Eh~~" "That's too much" "Is the kimono so beautiful?"
The car was driving steadily on the highway, but Akina Nakamori was immersed in the plot of the novel. She was simply a little girl addicted to reading novels!
In the afternoon, Naoki Nagayama parted ways with the others and returned to Yamazakurain by himself.
When I entered the door, I was still muttering:
"The contract, payment and transfer of ownership are expected to be at the end of February. We just happened to have a sum of money in place, so we can have someone design it in advance. Honma-san should not be too busy right now, so we can let Xinhai-chan design the KTV."
"Then we can start construction in March. Three months of renovation."
Since the building is not being built from scratch, the interior decoration should be completed quickly even for such a large office building.
"But it's still a little bit unsatisfactory." Thinking about the appearance of the new headquarters, Naoki Nagayama was a little dissatisfied, "When can I buy a high-rise building in Ginza?!"
“Or maybe just buy the land and build a skyscraper yourself?”
Alibaba has its own industrial park, Tencent has its own building, NetEase has its own building. Even Trump has a building with his own name in Manhattan!
"Is it called Yongshan Building or Naoki Building?"
Naoki Nagayama is thinking too far ahead, but it should not be too difficult to make good use of this year's Plaza Accord and then make good use of the future information revolution.
At this moment, Yingtaro came running over, wagging his tail.
"Ah, Yingtaro, you're alone again!" Naoki Nagayama stroked the dog's head and said with a smile, "Niaotaro doesn't want to play with you either?"
"Wang Wang Wang!"
"I don't know what you mean, but I think you're lonely~"
"Wang Wang!"
"Okay, okay, I'll stay at home with you in the afternoon~"
After Naoki Nagayama walked in, he rested for a while, played with the dog, and then went to the study on the second floor.
"Anyway, hurry up and finish the book. Otherwise, you will always have strange dreams at night."
“Where did I write about?”
Naoki Nagayama opened the drawer, trying to find his manuscript.
"Eh? Where's my manuscript?"
"Where is my thick stack of manuscripts?!"
After searching for a while, Naoki Nagayama had to admit that his manuscript was lost!
"Yingtaro, did you steal it?!"
He tortured the dog next to him, but the dog thought he was playing with him again and wagged its short and thick tail happily, making it bang its tail against the floor.
"Wang Wang Wang!"
After a while, Naoki Nagayama sighed helplessly. Only one person in Yama Sakurain could take his manuscript away.
"Akina, didn't you say that novels like this are hentai? Why did you secretly read them?"
"Is it the person who is reading that is hentai? Or is it the person who is writing that is hentai?!"
"I'll ask for clarification tonight!"
