The backstage of the Record Awards was still crowded, but this time the rehearsal was much simpler than that of Red and White.
There is not much interaction between singers, so they are all separated, not like Hongbai, where everyone is crowded together.
While walking through the venue, Shinichi Iwahashi met Akina Nakamori again, but it was from a distance.
So, if we are in the same circle, the most indispensable thing is the opportunity to pass by.
…
The opening figure of this Red and White Song Contest is Oginome Yoko, the singer of the Red Group, who sings the song "daninghero".
This little sister... was born in 1968, two years younger than Shinichi Iwahashi, so it's okay to call her little sister.
Despite her young age, Oginome Yoko actually made her debut as a singer as early as 1984. Although it is said that you need to become famous early, although she debuted early, she became popular not too early. She struggled for a long time without making any splash, until she released this song "
"daninghero" became an instant hit.
By the way, the song "daninghero" is also a cover dance song. Times make heroes.
Compared to Ishii Akemi, Oginome Yoko's stamina is much better. After becoming popular, the subsequent trend is also remarkable, and now she has become one of the popular idols.
As a symbol of popularity, Oginome Yoko came in a hurry from the stage of the Record Awards. Although the important awards do not accept songs written and composed by Waiguo Ren, other links are not blocked.
We had a tight schedule for the opening ceremony, and my little sister was still wearing clothes from the Record Awards.
The young and beautiful girl twists and dances, which is so pleasing to the eye at any time, even if she is dancing in the square.
However, the stage in 1986 seemed a little crude to Shin Iwahashi. Not only that, when Yoko Oginome was twisting and turning, the singers from the red group who were supporting her danced along with her. It felt really strange.
Earthy and cute.
After singing a section, the host helped add narration from behind, "Look, Yoko-chan is going to change her costume quickly."
Then, the girl started to shake her skirt, and took off the white fluffy gauze on the skirt, revealing the red and white hem like chicken feathers inside. This quick change of dress was really... no technical content at all.
Shinichi Iwahashi was happy to watch the excitement. The one-click costume change with high technical content is awesome, but the clumsy costume change of a young girl has a different kind of fun.
Having said that, the two major shows were chosen on the same day, so these popular singers had a lot of trouble.
At this time, it shows that Morishin has the advantage of being the finale tonight. At least he, the manager, has time to watch Yoko Oginome's performance and complain.
The red group is over, and the white group's first appearance is Johnny's male idol group Boys, singing "Masquerade". As if to counter the red group's quick costume change, the white group's boys came on stage.
The first thing is also monthly redemption
A more clumsy, non-technical Yue Dui, and then revealed a shiny, colorful performance costume with chicken feathers that is hard to complain about and has weird aesthetics.
I should be at home, not at the venue.
I want to laugh when I look at you but I can’t.
However, although the aesthetics of the youth team's costumes were thrown away and not brought with them, the dancing skills are really strong. Iwahashi Shinichi praised the youth team for their good stage performance in his heart, while complaining in his heart about the unsightly costumes, which turned out to be magical.
I felt a twisted sense of joy, feeling that the clothes seemed to be... okay?
Is this how Johnny "poisoned" Japanese aesthetics...
Just after watching the performance of the youth team, Shinichi Iwahashi set off, taking Shinichi Mori, who had finished the opening and was about to run in both directions, to the TBS studio.
The studios of the two TV stations were neither close nor far apart, and it was New Year's Eve, which put Shinichi Iwahashi's driving skills to the test.
When we arrived at the TBS studio, it was only a few minutes before Mori Shinichi made his debut. Fortunately, male singers' clothes were easy to change, and male enka singers didn't have to wear kimonos like female enka singers to make their debut, so,
As early as in the car, he changed into a suit again.
Shinichi Iwahashi was backstage, checking Mori's progress through the monitor. When he finished his performance, he immediately greeted him and led him to the parking lot and back to nhkhall again.
At this time, the Kohaku Song Festival had entered the second half, but for Mori Shinichi, it was just right. The costume designer and makeup artist took their time to re-make him up and send him performance costumes.
At this time, Iwahashi Shinichi was finally able to take a breath and just waited for the Kohaku Song Concert to end and send Mori Shinichi home.
After that, from the first to the third day, he can take three consecutive days off.
Perhaps he was exhausted from running back and forth between places. After returning to the red and white backstage, Shinichi Iwahashi seemed to be in sage mode. He had no interest in the performance in front of him and couldn't complain anymore.
…
In this Red and White Song Contest, the White team finally won.
With the chorus of "Hotfly Light", the closing song of "Unforgettable Tonight", this year's Red and White Song Festival came to an end.
After the show ended, the singers went home and rushed to the next show. The backstage was noisy. The costume designer and assistant left separately, and Iwahashi Shinichi was responsible for sending Mori Shinichi home.
In the car, Shinichi Mori chatted with Shinichi Iwahashi, "Iwahashi-kun, do you want to celebrate the New Year alone?"
"Yes."
"Where are you from?"
"Shizuoka City." Traffic was rolling on the street, and Shinichi Iwahashi drove carefully and steadily.
Mori Shinichi said "Oh", "It's quite close to Yamanashi." His hometown is in Yamanashi.
Shinichi Iwahashi listened quietly. He had not yet returned to Shizuoka, and he had never been to Yamanashi. These two places were still unfamiliar symbols to him.
The topic has finally come to an end. It is more of a question and answer than a chat.
The car arrived at Qingshan and drove uphill for a while, which was Shinichi Mori's residence. The car stopped and Shinichi Iwahashi escorted Shinichi Mori inside.
After entering the gate, you can already see the bright lights inside. This magnificent mansion is currently only occupied by Mori Shinichi, his wife Mori Masako, and Mori Shinichi's mother.
After getting married and retiring, this was the first New Year that Masako Mori spent with her husband. Her solemnity could be felt by Shinichi Iwahashi when he saw the pine branches and straw circles hanging on the door to symbolize the New Year.
Masako Mori greeted her husband at the entrance who had just finished the Kohaku Singing Party.
In addition, she also prepared two handheld paper bags, which were New Year's gifts for Shinichi Iwahashi from the couple.
"Iwahashi-kun, Happy New Year." Mori Masako held up the paper bag with both hands.
Mori Shinichi also smiled and said: "Although I am celebrating the New Year alone, don't be too careless."
Iwahashi Shinichi had a good harvest, so he accepted the two handbags, said goodbye to the Somori couple, and returned to his single apartment.
