If Shinichi Iwahashi had drawn a clear line with her after the incident and never said another word about her, then Momoko Kikuchi might not have such thoughts now.
It was precisely because Iwahashi Shinichi chose to lend a helping hand to her in the midst of the turmoil to preserve her dignity and not put her in an embarrassing situation that Kikuchi Momo realized even more how upright and upright he was.
Momoko Kikuchi thought about this clearly. Even if all her inner expectations and desires came to nothing, she would not be disappointed or regretful. Not only that, Iwahashi Shinichi's magnanimity from beginning to end made her feel relieved in another sense.
tone.
When he was being manipulated as a pawn, he hurriedly asked Shinichi Iwahashi for help and received his sincere help. Later, when he was involved in the turmoil and he was in a state of embarrassment, he was threatened by Iwasaki Kayumi and "had no choice".
, but because of Iwahashi Shinichi’s magnanimity, Kikuchi Momoko is determined to never do anything to hurt Iwahashi Shinichi no matter what, even if she becomes the laughing stock of the world.
Iwahashi Shinichi stepped forward to protect her from embarrassment.
The reason for this is because she also made the corresponding choice... That's it, right?
choose.
If being manipulated by her original agency was her inability as an idol. Being used by Iwasaki Ka Yumi and almost falling into her trap was her sorrow as a commodity. Then, she took that step and chose to go
Seeking Iwahashi Shinichi's help was undoubtedly her own willpower that allowed her to take that step and make this choice.
When she was involved in the turmoil and threatened by Iwasaki Kayumi, who had "no choice", she decided that no matter what happened, she would not do anything to hurt Shinichi Iwahashi... This was also a choice she made herself.
She is no longer a pawn to be manipulated and used.
It was her choice to keep herself clean as a response to Shinichi Iwahashi's aboveboard attitude that allowed her to maintain her dignity. It was her own choice that led her to join Yanyin, and now she has the opportunity to star in a TV series with dignity.
When I realized the matter of "choice", ever since Iwasaki Kayumi was encouraged to join the firm she founded, the stone that had been weighing on my heart was finally removed, and the dark cloud above my head finally disappeared.
After Momoko Kikuchi thought about this clearly, she couldn't help but respect Iwahashi Shinichi in her heart.
…
Momoko Kikuchi and Akina Nakamori work in the same office. Although they belong to different departments and are responsible for different teams, they still cannot avoid meeting Akina Nakamori at such large gatherings at the end of the year and the beginning of the year.
During the time since joining Kenyin, I can count the number of times I have met Nakamori Akina on one hand. When she was still an idol, she and Nakamori Akina met more often on TV stations or filming sets.
Since Momoko Kikuchi respects Shinichi Iwahashi, since she has experienced the feeling of "making a choice", since she has decided not to hurt Shinichi Iwahashi no matter what happens, since she must stick to her choice.
Then, she also made up her mind that no matter how Akina Nakamori viewed herself, she would not escape.
Although she said she was open-minded and a little bit cheeky. However, Momoko Kikuchi felt that when she saw Akina Nakamori at the venue and walked towards her, her heart was indeed open-minded.
"Nakamori-san." She showed off her attitude as a junior.
When Momoko Kikuchi was still a girl who occasionally went to her aunt's restaurant for dinner on weekends, and imagined that she would inherit her aunt's small restaurant and become a "female general" in the future, Akina Nakamori, the "Girl A", had already made her debut.
By the time she became an idol, Nakamori Akina had already become someone to look up to. And Momoko Kikuchi also looked up to Nakamori Akina.
"Hello, Kikuchi-san." Akina Nakamori smiled and bowed in return.
Although she is undoubtedly a big star at the top, when she bowed slightly and returned the favor in a soft voice, she still gave Momoko Kikuchi an overly humble feeling.
It's not quite true to say that it's humility. Rather, it's a feeling of "Nakamori Akina is Nakamori Akina, and I am me."
Such thoughts flashed through my mind.
Momoko Kikuchi had seen Akina Nakamori many times, but this was the first time she thought of her in her heart. However, when this thought flashed through her mind, she suddenly tasted the aboveboardness in Akina Nakamori's attitude.
There was neither complaint nor uneasiness, nor defensiveness or hostility, politeness or alienation, just gentle and polite kindness.
Kikuchi Momoko suddenly thought that Iwahashi Shinichi helped her, which also meant that he had a clear conscience for Nakamori Akina. At this moment, the peaceful and humble Nakamori Akina was doing it because he knew that Iwahashi Shinichi had a clear conscience... right?
Neither of these two people considered Momoko Kikuchi to be a problem.
Shinichi Iwahashi was not here, and Momoko Kikuchi would not be able to find the answer to this question.
But thinking about this, and facing what I discovered about the unquestioning trust between Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina, I couldn't help but feel that my previous determination to "not escape no matter what" seemed a little funny.
However, it was precisely because she was determined to repay the two of them with the same magnanimity that she was able to accept Nakamori Akina's gentle and humble kindness. Kikuchi Momoko felt that this was also a "choice" she made.
”.
Even now, if you ask her what she thinks of Shinichi Iwahashi, she still feels guilty. But because of the "choice" she made, Momoko Kikuchi can still keep her peace of mind until all the ice disintegrates and she returns to nature.
…
At this reception, Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina met face to face, and the people they dealt with afterwards were all industry insiders who were invited, as well as representatives from Dentsu and TV stations who came to attend.
After all, the reception was held in the name of the television production company.
In the new year, production preparations for "Season of the Cutie" are about to begin. The starring role is undoubtedly Akina Nakamori. The role of the other heroine was taken by Watanabe Manyumi's agency. However, her staff can take on the role of the second female lead.
Among the actresses, no one has an image suitable for this role. She has known this for a long time, and she has made up her mind long ago to use this role to replace other roles with other agencies.
As for GENZO, they won the job of scoring and interludes for this TV series. As for the theme song, she is also going to sing the theme song of the TV series starring Nakamori Akina, just in time to create popularity for herself. However, because the TV production company has GENZO
For one copy, if Akina Nakamori sings the theme song, Kenyin will transfer the publishing rights of this single to GENZO.
None of the popular singers who belong to GENZO have any interest in acting, let alone the talent for acting. Iwahashi Shinichi doesn't have the interest to catch up with others. The only exception is Keiko Utoku.
He planned to get Keiko Utoku a guest appearance in one or two episodes of the TV series and be responsible for singing the interlude.
The TV production company Dentsu is involved, and with its help, this TV series is scheduled to be broadcast on TBS TV station. In terms of production, it will naturally be assisted by TBS TV station. If you really want to say it, it once had great glory and "
TBS TV station, known as the "TBS of TV dramas", has suffered defeat in TV dramas for several years.
I couldn't be more pleased with "Lovely Season", which has a strong cast and fresh themes. It's not so much that Dentsu is helping to manage the joints on the TBS TV station, it's more that Dentsu is the matchmaker and provides opportunities for both parties.
Of course, broadcasting on TBS TV station is also a good choice.
On one side is the TV station that wants to revive the glory of "TBS of TV dramas", and on the other side is the TV production company that wants to build a brand. On the one hand, it welcomes innovative attempts, but on the other hand, it wants to find another way to do something different from the existing themes.
The two sides hit it off immediately.
Back then, Shinichi Iwahashi and Wan Yumi Watanabe took the project of "Band Paradise" to TBS TV station to seek cooperation but failed. They went back and forth. As long as their lives are on the upswing, they will reconnect sooner or later.
TBS TV station has its own actor training class, which is positioned to cultivate reliable green actors. In a TV series, whether it is for ratings or sponsorship, etc., the main roles are all handled by the agency.
Star" serves.
Famous and popular actors may not have the acting skills to support a TV series. To be precise, green leaves with reliable acting skills build a strong framework, and then popular actors fill in the content. There are veteran actors.
The Green Leaf actors can guarantee that a TV series, even if it uses popular idols with no acting skills, will not be too outrageous.
Since it is cooperating with TBS TV station, when selecting the characters for "Lovely Season", in addition to the main role that has been pre-booked, the opinions of TBS TV station will also be taken into the selection of other characters.
In addition, because the TV production company has a TV series that has been publicly announced to be in production, other firms in the industry are also actively approaching to see if they can win any roles in it.
Since the establishment of the TV production company was announced to the public, both Yanyin and Watanabe Manyumi have made many new relationships. Even Iwahashi Shinichi, a "music producer who doesn't understand TV dramas," has become an entertainer.
The person in charge of the firm is paying attention to...
However, as a music producer who doesn't understand TV dramas, he is indeed preparing for a TV variety show.
On the one hand, the newly established TV production company is preparing for the large-scale production of "The Cutie Season". On the other hand, it is also scheduled to produce the TV variety show planned by Shinichi Iwahashi.
"When the time comes, I will also ask Dentsu to take care of me." Shinichi Iwahashi lowered his stance.
"Lovely Season" stars Akina Nakamori. With this brand alone, the advertiser she serves as the spokesperson will definitely join in sponsoring the TV series. This is a common practice in the industry.
In addition, there are regular prime-time sponsors and advertisers who are optimistic about the future of this TV series.
However, the new TV series and variety shows are different. They are broadcast in the late night slot of TV Tokyo and have to recruit unknown newcomers. It is really unattractive. Although the cost has been suppressed again and again, it is always better to save money than to save money.
Open source.
Iwahashi Shinichi expected Dentsu to help connect several advertisers, so he naturally had to be humble. Even though the person opposite him who was entrusted to him, when he heard his words, the first reaction was to laugh.
Hiroyuki Narita smiled and said, "It is said to the outside world that Shinichi-kun is the nominal chief producer. Just with this name, sponsors came to him." He may not be flattering and ridiculing him.
Iwahashi Shinichi also laughed, "Brother-in-law Narita said this, I almost really believed it."
"It doesn't matter if you believe it." Hiroyuki Narita said in a relaxed tone. But in another sense, if Shinichi Iwahashi is listed as the chief producer, Hiroyuki Narita will not stand idly by.
Therefore, it is okay for Shinichi Iwahashi to believe it.
Not only did his brother-in-law successfully survive the crisis, he also participated in the establishment of a television production company. With the idea of producing a TV series and variety show, he boldly wanted to move from the record industry to the television industry. Although he had previously made suggestions for variety shows, he was unable to establish a television production company.
Companies are two completely different things.
The outside world has speculated whether Iwahashi Shinichi might produce a TV series. According to Hiroyuki Narita, it is very possible.
Anyway, now that things have happened, whatever this brother-in-law does will not surprise Hiroyuki Narita. Previously, I thought he was going to help Iwahashi Shinichi, but now it seems that with the speed of Iwahashi Shinichi's rise, it won't take long.
He had to rely on this brother-in-law.
Of course, as long as he climbs high enough, he will definitely be on Shinichi Iwahashi's side.
Once interests are involved, the relationship between brother-in-law and brother-in-law becomes closer than ever.
Having said the polite words and taking reassurances, Shinichi Iwahashi and Hiroyuki Narita became more casual and relaxed. While no one was around, Shinichi Iwahashi casually started talking to his brother-in-law about their family affairs.
"Are Narita-sama and Asako-sama going back to Shizuoka?"
Hiroyuki Narita's tone was matter-of-fact, "Needless to say, it's still two days." He answered the question, his eyes lingering on Iwahashi Shinichi's face for a moment, "Could it be," he used a joking tone to cover it up, "are you planning to
Which one should I take back to Shizuoka?"
As he spoke, Hiroyuki Narita thought that at this moment, somewhere in the venue, this "that one" was there. Although Akina Nakamori is famous as a star, Hiroyuki Narita has never seen her in person.
.
"I have such a plan." Shinichi Iwahashi said without thinking. Or perhaps, the reason for thinking without thinking at this moment is because he had already thought about it carefully beforehand.
Even if Hiroyuki Narita had guessed it and heard it with his own ears, he still reacted. Then he thought to himself that now, no matter what Shinichi Iwahashi does again and again, it is not surprising.
No. As far as taking Akina Nakamori back to her hometown is concerned, it is obvious that it will come to this point.
…
The densely packed receptions at the end of the year will finally come to an end on the 29th. From the beginning of December, this process has been a process of slowly unloading the burden.
After the snow on the 23rd, it was sunny from Christmas Eve to New Year's Eve. Moreover, looking at the weather forecast, it was also sunny in Tokyo even on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.
On the 30th, there was a red and white rehearsal for DREAM T-shirt and E. One day in advance, the three band members, plus the supporting accompanist, met at Sony's rehearsal room.
