It is rare to meet a producer like Shinichi Iwahashi unless someone recommends him.
Backstage at the concert, the only people who could come in were either people from sponsors, people from the local television industry, or celebrity artists who had greeted them in advance.
Iwahashi Shinichi came to the show on a whim. Now, when he appeared backstage, he inevitably exchanged a few words with the people who came to visit him backstage.
Iwahashi Shinichi was not familiar with the entertainment industry in Kansai. Therefore, he was extra polite to the people he met. Of course, it was backstage at Akina Nakamori's concert, and the people who came to support her were none.
I couldn't tell the priority. I exchanged business cards and said a few polite words, and that was it.
If we have a chance to interact with you later, that will happen later.
After the show started, the backstage became more and more busy. The staff were in a hurry, and the people who came backstage before the show came and went. The whole backstage was like boiling water, lively, but orderly.
An elegant but fashionable woman walked through the narrow corridor and entered the backstage. At first glance, she looked as beautiful as an actress.
It's hard to get a ticket for Akina Nakamori's concert. Besides, if you are an ordinary young actor, you have no chance to get a ticket through an agency. However, this woman's face is not one that you can often see on TV.
face.
People come and go in the lounge. To a certain extent, it can be regarded as a social stage. You exchange pleasantries with those you have connections with, and you also accept the admiration of those who come backstage to meet your idols. At the same time, you also tacitly allow others to treat the backstage as
Be their social gathering place.
"Hello, Akina-san."
The woman has a beautiful smile and elegant posture, like a lady who was born in a noble family and married into a famous family. She is full of charm, like a drop of water that has not yet dripped.
Akina Nakamori met such a woman for the first time, so she reacted a little because she felt strange.
After coming back to his senses, he nodded to her politely.
To be honest, this kind of woman whose actions and gestures have nothing to do with girls from ordinary people's families, when she appeared in front of Nakamori Akina, this shopping street kid, more or less, didn't know how to deal with it.
Of course, this kind of not knowing how to react does not mean that I feel that I am at a disadvantage. It just seems that I have met people from another world.
"Thank you for your hospitality, I am Hitomi Kuroki." The woman announced at the door.
At concerts where relevant people are present, old managers usually know in advance who will come backstage. They also say hello to Nakamori Akina in advance before introducing people to them.
Therefore, even though Nakamori Akina didn't know how to react because of Hitomi Kuroki's temperament and charm, she didn't know who the visitor was, and she was immediately able to speak kind words to the former Takarazuka Opera Troupe's top performer.
…
It was all smooth sailing for Hitomi Kuroki when she was in the Takarazuka Opera Company. She joined the troupe at the age of 21, and the following year she was appointed by Mao Daichi, the top male actor in the Moon Group, to become her partner, and she quickly rose to the top.
Mao Daichi was the most popular performer in the Takarazuka Opera Company at that time. This talented male actor, who was rare to see in decades, was not only very popular among Takarazuka lovers, but also attracted ordinary people with her charm.
, and then pay attention to the theater troupe she is in.
This kind of Mao Daichi is like the male protagonist in a school idol drama who is adored by all the girls in the school. Hitomi Kuroki, who was promoted as an exception, is naturally the heroine who successfully attracted the attention of the domineering president.
Such Hitomi Kuroki, after becoming Mao Daichi's partner, also became a standard idol drama actress who was bullied, grew up amidst various setbacks, and became more and more firm in her relationship with her male protagonist, and finally became successful.
main character.
The pair worked well together, and because of their sparkle, there were rumors that the two fell in love over the show. Later, in 1985, they did something unprecedented, both of them quit the troupe, setting a precedent for the troupe.
However, after leaving the Takarazuka Theater Company, Hitomi Kuroki's soaring good luck seemed to have left her. She first starred in the movie "Incarnation" originally written by Junichi Watanabe, in which she boldly dedicated herself to art.
An actress who came from the Takarazuka Opera Company, she is determined to sweep the former Kiyomasa into a corner. Of course, it also shows her ambition. Although with her performance in this movie, she won
She won the Newcomer Award at the Japanese Oscar, but after that, her development was unsatisfactory. There is no doubt that she is an unpopular actor.
But things have changed slightly this year.
This year, thirty-one-year-old Hitomi Kuroki got married to a clerk at Dentsu Kansai Branch.
…
"It turns out to be Iwahashi-san." Kuroki Hitomi took the business card and bowed to Iwahashi Shinichi, with a smile on his radiant face.
Her expression seemed a bit innocent. Her round eyes gave her a somewhat inexperienced look. But there was no doubt that she was full of charm in every move she made.
Shinichi Iwahashi took her business card and glanced at her face.
"Hei Mu-san." He nodded in return.
"It's really unexpected to meet Iwahashi-san." Hitomi Kuroki's eyes flashed with charm, "It's unexpected and I feel lucky at the same time." She said with a smile on her face, "I have always liked Iwahashi-san's production.
singer."
Being looked at like this, even Iwahashi Shinichi felt that she was very charming, thinking that she was the "chun girl" appointed by Watanabe Junichi after all. He politely thanked her, "Thank you Kuroki-san for your support."
"What will Producer-san think about when he is praised in person?" Kuroki Hitomi suddenly asked.
Shinichi Iwahashi did not expect that she would suddenly say such a thing. It was hard to associate it with her elegant appearance. However, her eyes that were not familiar with the world seemed innocent at this moment, making people believe that they were just out of appearance.
Out of curiosity.
He was stunned at this moment when he was hit by the ball thrown by Kuroki Hitomi, thinking about what to say, but the woman opposite him had already shown that smile again.
She seemed to have said nothing and nothing had happened, saying, "As an audience, you can't help but feel lucky to be able to express your feelings to your favorite producer in person."
There was a smile in her eyes. At this moment, Iwahashi Shinichi realized that Kuroki Hitomi was not actually smiling, but just had such a pair of smiling eyes.
Kuroki Hitomi slightly bowed to Iwahashi Shinichi, "...I'm sorry."
Iwahashi Shinichi came to his senses and realized that she was leading the way. However, he didn't know what the person in front of him was thinking or what he wanted to say. It seemed that Kuroki Hitomi enjoyed teasing others.
.
However, it seemed that she was just out of pure curiosity. Iwahashi Shinichi didn't like this feeling of uncertainty.
He nodded to Kuromu Tong, "I'll excuse you now."
After leaving Hitomi Kuroki, Shinichi Iwahashi raised his wrist and looked at the time. He walked outside the door of Akina Nakamori's lounge. The door of the lounge was closed.
The old agent, Ben, was standing outside.
Shinichi Iwahashi guessed that Akina Nakamori was inside preparing to go on stage, so he just said to Omoto, "I'm going to the front."
