Chapter 663: Good News Keeps Coming

"Nogizaka?"

This name makes the girls reverie.

Although they spend more time at the SMA headquarters building and receive training courses in dance and physical fitness, their vocal lessons are at the SME headquarters building in Chiyoda Ward.

Therefore, they naturally know the fact that Nogi Shrine, which is near the SME company, and the street where the company is located, is called "Nogizaka".

Because of this, they didn't think too much about it, but just immersed themselves in the joy of finally knowing when they debuted...

The days of waiting finally came to an end, which made the three of them more dedicated to various trainings.

And from Uncle Ishida, Sakamoto Kiyoshi, who learned about this situation, was also stunned for a while, and then muttered "unintentionally inserted willows into the willows", and put this matter down temporarily.

The Nogizaka project is not something that can be completed overnight, and it takes time and manpower to implement it.

On the other hand, the matter attracted his attention.

。。。。。。

September 27th, 8 p.m.

At this time, the general company employees, except for some people who work overtime or are ready to stay all night, basically get off work and leave the company.

Not to mention the leader, who walks on time better than anyone else.

However, the operations director's office on the 20th floor of the SMA headquarters building in Shinagawa-ku, is still lit up.

In the office, only Kiyoshi Sakamoto and his agent, Uncle Ishida.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Kiyoshi Sakamoto looked through the glass at the night scene of Tokyo, which had just woken up.

The brightly lit streets and bustling areas are all part of Tokyo's cosmopolitan city.

"But in this city, which never seems to stop, how small people are... ”

Looking at everything outside the window, the loneliness in Sakamoto Kiyoshi's heart suddenly became like a big hand, grabbing his throat tightly, making him a little breathless in an instant.

"Qing, the box office is out!"

At this time, Uncle Ishida's words were like a sharp arrow, smashing the mirror apart and making a loud noise.

This broke the silence in the room, and also interrupted Kiyoshi Sakamoto's fantasy, saving him from the illusion.

"Oh, got it. Shaking his head and fighting his spirits, Kiyoshi Sakamoto walked towards the agent who was sitting on the sofa.

Today is the day when the box office data for the 9th week of the release of "Those Years" is released.

8 weeks after its release, the campus youth film "Those Years", written, directed and acted by Kiyoshi Sakamoto, won a total of 8.45 billion box office.

In other words, as long as it gets more than 50 million at the box office in the 9th week, then "Those Years" will officially surpass "Calling Love in the Center of the World" and become the highest-grossing local romance film in Japanese film history!!

And tonight is the time to witness the record-setting of "Those Years"!

Sitting on the sofa, Kiyoshi Sakamoto motioned for Uncle Ishida to start.

"Here he is ... Reminded the phone, Uncle Ishida pressed the sound button and put the phone on the table.

"The number of screens in "Those Years" this week is still at 406, with an average attendance rate of 87%, and finally won... ”

The voice of his subordinate through the mobile phone, with a slight mechanical and unique "rustling" sound, sounded a little unclear.

It's just that, judging from the very serious expressions on the faces of Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Uncle Ishida, they only care about the next result.

"Eighty-three million at the box office!"

As soon as this number came out, Sakamoto Kiyoshi stood up from the sofa and threw a punch into the void very excitedly, as if roaring at the enemy of nothingness, and shouted with a hideous expression:

β€œYES!”

This series of actions made Uncle Ishida, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, and the person on the other end of the phone also stunned.

Silence, silence ...

However, Sakamoto Kiyoshi ignored their consternation, but picked up his mobile phone and said to his subordinates on the other end of the phone: "It's hard work, let's do this first." ”

"Uh... ”

A dripping sound.,Before waiting for his subordinates to answer.,Sakamoto Kiyoshi hung up the phone.。。。

Although the horror box office at the beginning and the generally praised word-of-mouth made the public very optimistic about the relatively high box office of "Those Years".

However, the public never thought that "Those Years", a rookie director who directed for the first time, with a few "newcomers" who did not have much acting experience, would actually challenge "Calling Love in the Center of the World", which has carved a brand in Japanese film history!

Even Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who is the most confident in the movie, although looking at the box office in the past few weeks, I didn't think that "Those Years" really broke the record of "Calling Love in the Center of the World"!

Between thinking and doing, there is actually a distance between learning from the west.

made his film debut, breaking the record that had been sealed for six years, and Kiyoshi Sakamoto's heart can only be described in two words:

"Happy!"

"Notify all the crew and have a celebration banquet!"

The next day, the headlines of major entertainment news and hot searches on the Internet were all "Those Years" broke the record and became the most in history" news, and the whole screen was swiped!

"The record is ancient, and the new king has been born!"

"At the age of 20, Kiyoshi Sakamoto used a "Those Years" to tell the whole world that he is the new hope of Japanese cinema!" This is deliberately touted.

。。。

The fluidity of the mass media made this news a stir in just one day.

At night, almost all the people who pay attention to the Japanese entertainment industry know that the movie directed by Kiyoshi Sakamoto for the first time won a box office of 8.53 billion, breaking the box office record of local romance films!

That night, Kiyoshi Sakamoto and the entire crew of "Those Years" held a huge celebration banquet in a lobby specially arranged by TV Asahi, one of the filmmakers!

The number of people present is as high as more than 300 people!

In addition to the crew members of "Those Years", TV Asahi and Toho also sent representatives, which can be described as full of voices.

Even the Asahi Shimbun, the company behind TV Asahi, was alarmed!

It can be imagined that the achievements of Kiyoshi Sakamoto this time are such a sensation...

"This is TV Asahi... ”

"Please advise. ”

"This is Toho's... ”

"Please advise. ”

Under the introduction of the agent, Kiyoshi Sakamoto greeted all the big people present, and expanded his network by the way.

At the end of the night, although the waist ached because of the frequent bending and bowing, the harvest was very huge.

Through the intermediary of the president of TV Asahi, he got in touch with one of the most influential newspapers in Japan, the major shareholder behind TV Asahi, Asahi Shimbun!

Not only that, but after the celebration banquet, he received a congratulatory text message.

A text message from Takeshi Kitano。。。
