After walking into the Japanese restaurant and asking the receptionist, Cao Zhiqiang was quickly led into a Japanese-style box by a maid in kimono.
After knocking on the door and asking the people inside, the maid in kimono, who was actually the waitress, bowed to Cao Zhiqiang, indicating that Cao Zhiqiang could go in, and then quietly retreated.
During the whole process, the woman in kimono was very quiet and submissive, which made people feel comfortable.
I have to say that purely in terms of service quality, this kind of Japanese-style service really makes people feel comfortable, which is also difficult to achieve in China.
At present, domestic hotel waiters, even in foreign-related hotels, cannot do this. Unless they are waiters from Xiangjiang, they cannot do this.
In the final analysis, this has nothing to do with rich or poor, but the relationship between system and cognition.
After various movements, everyone in the country has basically achieved equality, at least in terms of personality, but this has also led to a decline in the quality of certain services.
At least this kind of high-end hotel service is not available in China at this time. Even those who serve senior leaders are only respectful, but they cannot be as docile and obedient as Japanese women.
If someone in China served guests like this, they would be scolded and said to be a remnant of feudalism.
Of course, after the 1990s, this situation will no longer exist.
Because in the face of materialistic desires, in order to make money, some persistence quickly disappeared, and various high-end services appeared one after another, such as white buildings, red buildings, and various tube services.
However, after all, this is just a small wave of the times. As the times move forward, this kind of low-level service will eventually disappear, at least on the surface.
But I have to say that as a person being served, this kind of service is indeed very satisfying.
No wonder many rich people like to go abroad to make money. In fact, when you are really rich, some enjoyments involving low-level tastes cannot be found in China, but can only be found abroad, such as Japan.
After laughing at himself, Hu Qiang was about to open the door and go in, but found that the door suddenly opened, and then the figure of Nagayama Kozo appeared.
"Ah, Cao Sang, you're finally here." Yongshan Kozo opened the door and said with a smile, "Since you're here, why don't you come in and wait outside?"
Cao Zhiqiang blinked and did not say that he had just been distracted, but smiled and said: "Oh, I am showing respect. After all, you and Sayuri-senpai are in there, and I am afraid of disturbing you."
Nagayama Kozo laughed: "You, you, you are too polite, come on, come in with me, I'll wait for you!"
Soon, Yongshan Kozo pulled Cao Zhiqiang into the house.
The room looks inconspicuous from the outside, but once inside, it is found to be very large. At a glance, it is at least fifty square meters in size.
In a space of fifty square meters, there is only one table, which is filled with all kinds of food, and there are a few short cabinets next to it.
In addition, there is a sliding door at the end, and it looks like there is space behind it.
In short, in such a big place, there is a table full of dishes, but there are only two people, which shows how luxurious this meal is.
If nothing else, considering the size of the private room, this meal is not cheap.
At this time, Sayuri Yoshinaga had already stood up, smiling and nodding slightly at Cao Zhiqiang who came in.
Cao Zhiqiang also nodded quickly to Sayuri Yoshinaga and said hello, and then everyone sat down again under the greeting of Nagayama Kozo.
Normally, in a private room like this, there should be a young waitress in kimono as an escort, but there is not one here, probably because everyone wants to talk about something and don't want others to know.
Since there is no waitress, Nagayama Kozo was most likely doing things like pouring drinks.
But soon, Cao Zhiqiang knew that he was wrong.
It turned out that before he came, Nagayama Kozo only drank tea and chatted with Sayuri Yoshinaga, without drinking or eating.
The reason is that Yoshinaga Sayuri insisted on waiting for Cao Zhiqiang to arrive before starting.
After all, Cao Zhiqiang is the screenwriter, and the script must go through him.
In this case, it is disrespectful to start without waiting for Cao Zhiqiang to come.
Fortunately, the food on the table at this time is basically cold sashimi, and it is all covered with thick ice, so it is not bad at all.
Hearing this, Cao Zhiqiang quickly thanked Sayuri Yoshinaga again for her respect.
"Where." Yoshinaga Sayuri narrowed her eyes and smiled at Cao Zhiqiang, "You are the screenwriter. This is basic respect. It is not just for you, I treat everyone like this."
"Yes, I have learned a lesson." Cao Zhiqiang continued to smile and raised a glass of wine, "Senior Sayuri, no matter what, I am late, so I will punish myself with a drink first!"
After finishing speaking, Cao Zhiqiang gestured to Sayuri Yoshinaga with his wine glass, and then drank it all in one gulp.
Sayuri Yoshinaga smiled and was about to speak when suddenly there was a knock on the door again.
Immediately afterwards, a soft female voice sounded outside: "Guest, can we serve hot food?"
Yongshan Kozo said quickly: "Okay, come up!"
Soon, the door opened, and then three women in kimonos came in one after another, holding different plates in their hands.
The three waitresses in kimonos knelt and sat down. After putting down the food, they bowed to Cao Zhiqiang and others again, then slowly retreated and closed the door again.
Yongshan Kozo smiled: "Haha, the food is here and the people are here, let's get started."
Sayuri Yoshinaga and Cao Zhiqiang both smiled and nodded, and then everyone looked at Sayuri Yoshinaga, waiting for her to use her chopsticks first.
This is mainly because she is the oldest and has the most seniority, and this meal is for her, so she moves first before everyone else can move.
Just when Sayuri Yoshinaga picked up her chopsticks and was about to pick up a piece of sashimi, Kozo Nagayama's pager suddenly rang.
Nagayama Kozo quickly looked at the pager, and then said sheepishly: "Sorry, there is an important call. I will make a call first. You can do whatever you want first."
After saying that, Nagayama Kozo stood up and left in a hurry.
As soon as he left, only Cao Zhiqiang and Sayuri Yoshinaga were left on the scene, making the scene a little awkward.
The reason why he is embarrassed refers to Cao Zhiqiang himself.
Because as soon as Nagayama Kozo left, Yoshinaga Sayuri looked straight at Cao Zhiqiang without saying anything, making Cao Zhiqiang a little embarrassed.
Just kidding, even if you are a senior, you have not always looked at people this way.
Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang forced a smile, took the initiative to raise his glass and said: "Senior Sayuri, I respect you."
Sayuri Yoshinaga smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass and touched it with Cao Zhiqiang, then covered her mouth with one hand and drank it with her face turned sideways.
Cao Zhiqiang was not so particular. He neither covered his mouth with his hand nor turned his face to the side, and drank it all directly in front of Sayuri Yoshinaga.
This so-called custom of covering one's mouth and turning one's face away from one's face is only practiced in Japan and South Korea. China has long stopped practicing this practice.
After another glass of sake, Cao Zhiqiang was also a little excited and took the initiative: "Sayuri-senpai, I heard that you want to change the script. I wonder what you mean?"
Sayuri Yoshinaga was stunned. She didn't expect Cao Zhiqiang to be so direct and say this right away.
But soon, Sayuri Yoshinaga smiled, picked up the jug, and poured each other a glass of wine again. Then he picked up two glasses of wine, one for himself and one for Cao Zhiqiang: "Drink this before we talk."
Cao Zhiqiang didn't hesitate. He took it directly and drank it all in one gulp. Then he emptied the cup and showed Yoshinaga Sayuri the bottom of the cup, meaning he drank it all himself.
Sayuri Yoshinaga smiled, turned sideways again, covered her mouth with her hand, and drank the wine in the glass gracefully.
After that, Sayuri Yoshinaga put down her wine glass and took a napkin to wipe her mouth slowly. Then she turned around, smiled and said to Cao Zhiqiang: "That's true. I think the character I played, Satomi Sekiguchi, should be pure and should not be confused with others." That playboy Kenichi Mikami went to bed.
And now that we have gone to bed, we should not go to Nagao Wanji again. Doesn’t this mean that Nagao Wanji is regarded as, well..."
"Spare tire?" Cao Zhiqiang said subconsciously.
"Spare tire?" Yoshinaga Sayuri was stunned, then covered her mouth and smiled, "Yes, it's very vivid, it is true, hahaha."
After laughing, Yoshinaga Sayuri said: "I think that since Sekiguchi Satomi is Nagao Kanji's childhood sweetheart, she should wait for him from the beginning to the end. In this way, it will not only reflect Sekiguchi Satomi's simple kindness, but also the following The ending could also be more reasonable.
For example, since Akana Rika is so good, why didn't Nagao Kanji choose her instead of Sekiguchi Satomi?
What kind of person would he be if Satomi Sekiguchi was a slutty person who used to be in two different situations, being on good terms with Kenichi Mikami and finishing with Nagao at the same time?
Therefore, I hope to remove the scenes where Satomi Sekiguchi and Kenichi Mikami are together, especially the part about having sex.
At the same time, we need to increase the number of scenes between the male protagonist and Satomi Sekiguchi, so that we can show how good Satomi Sekiguchi is.
Otherwise, everyone would wonder why Satomi Sekiguchi was chosen as the male lead in the end. This is unreasonable! "
Cao Zhiqiang frowned, then sighed and said: "Senior Sayuri, what you said is true, but what you said is a normal phenomenon and the thoughts of people of your era, while the story I wrote is the thoughts of modern young people. "
Seeing Sayuri Yoshinaga frowning, Cao Zhiqiang quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you are old. I mean, my show is not going to take the usual path, but it is contrary to what seems reasonable. It turns around, and then makes the inversion feel very reasonable.”
After a brief pause, Cao Zhiqiang continued to explain: "If you read the script I wrote carefully and read it all carefully, you will know that in fact, Nagao Kanji and Sekiguchi Satomi, although they are childhood sweethearts, their feelings are different. .
Nagao Wanji believed that Satomi Sekiguchi was his bride from the beginning, and felt that she was the most suitable for him, but Satomi Sekiguchi was not like this at the beginning.
And compared to the dull Nagao Kanji, most women, especially girls like Satomi, prefer bad men like Mikami Kenichi.
Men are not bad, but women don’t love them.
As for why Nagao Kanji did not choose Akana Rika, this is more complicated.
Nagao Kanji and Sekiguchi Satomi are both young people who came to Tokyo from a small town. Their views and thoughts on love are different from those of big city girls like Akana Rika.
To put it simply, Nagao Kanji likes Akana Rika very much and is attracted to her, but Nagao Kanji is still a bit chauvinistic after all, so the bride he really wants is not someone like Akana Rika, but Sekiguchi Satomi.
This is the difference between love and life.
As for Satomi Sekiguchi, she is a traditional Japanese woman who likes Kenichi Mikami, so she quickly gave everything she had.
It was only after she discovered that Ken Mikami was attracted to another woman, and saw it with her own eyes, that this traditional female characteristic made her unbearable, so she turned to Nagao Wanji.
A traditional woman who falls in love with a playboy will naturally have to give her all.
And facing a playboy, it is too difficult to keep oneself as pure as jade, which is also unreasonable.
In addition, this is also a kind of imperfect beauty.
Sometimes, the character design is too perfect, but not realistic enough or attractive enough.
Sayuri-senpai, you also have a lot of acting experience, how could you not understand this? "
Yoshinaga Sayuri frowned and was about to speak when the door suddenly opened.
Immediately afterwards, I saw Yongshan Kozo walking in embarrassedly and said: "Sorry, it's a little urgent. I have to rush over right away. I won't eat this meal for now.
But Sayuri-senpai, you also know that Cao Sang is the screenwriter, and his words are more useful than mine. If you have anything to discuss with him.
As long as you negotiate with him and say hello to me later, I will listen to you whether you want to change it or not. "
Speaking of this, Yongshan Kosan looked at Cao Zhiqiang and waved his hand: "Um, Cao Sang, please take a step to speak."
Cao Zhiqiang was stunned, nodded to Yoshinaga Sayuri, then quickly stood up and walked out of the room with Nagayama Kozo.
After leaving the room and coming to the corridor, Nagayama Kozo pulled him aside and whispered: "Cao Sang, Sayuri-senpai is begging you, you must convince her, otherwise, this scene will not be filmed. .”
Cao Zhiqiang frowned: "Persuasion? Sorry, I always stand firm. If she insists on changing the show, then..."
"Don't refuse in a hurry." Nagayama Kozo waved his hand and whispered, "Cao Sang, I actually feel that Sayuri-senpai doesn't have any objections to your script. She did this on purpose. It was a drunkard's intention and not the wine. ah."
"On purpose? The drunkard doesn't care about drinking?" Cao Zhiqiang asked in surprise, "What do you mean?"
Yongshan Kozo smiled playfully at Cao Zhiqiang: "Well, you will know it soon."
Speaking of this, Nagayama Kozo suddenly took out a box of things from his pocket and patted it in Cao Zhiqiang's hand: "Well, keep this, just in case."
"What is it?" Cao Zhiqiang opened his hand in surprise and found it was a box of DUREX.
After seeing this thing, Cao Zhiqiang immediately raised his head with wide eyes: "You, what do you mean?"
Nagayama Kozo smiled playfully at Cao Zhiqiang again, then patted Cao Zhiqiang's shoulder and whispered: "That's what I mean! Anyway, take this with you. When you really need it, at least you will be prepared."
"No, you, you..." Cao Zhiqiang said speechlessly, "I'm just here for a show, why would I use this?"
Nagayama Kozo sighed: "Cao Sang, you are too naive! You don't really think that a professional actor like Sayuri-senpai would act like a big name just for the sake of his role, right? Even if he acts like a big name, he doesn't show off right away. Playing a big role, right?
And it's useless no matter how much others try to persuade her, she has to have you come and tell her in person. It's already obvious what this means. "
"Are you overthinking it?" Cao Zhiqiang frowned, "I had a good chat with Sayuri-senpai before, but we were just talking about characters and scripts?"
Hearing this, Nagayama Kozo shook his head: "You, you... forget it, no matter if I am overthinking it or not, there is nothing wrong with you preparing in advance.
It's good to be useless, but if needed, at least it won't cause trouble. "
Speaking of this, Nagayama Kozo smiled: "Okay, that's it. I'll leave first. You must take good care of Sayuri-senpai. You must satisfy her and convince her. Only in this way can this scene continue. Push on.
Anyway, please! "
After half-bowing to Cao Zhiqiang, Nagayama Kozo smiled and left, leaving only Cao Zhiqiang in a daze. (End of chapter)
