Recently, Assistant Momoi doesn't often read the Assistant Manual silently in her mind.
On the one hand, there are very few situations where she needs to memorize the assistant manual silently. Now, she is very familiar with Iwahashi-san. Not only that, she also takes Kenta out to play for Akina-san and Iwahashi-san from time to time.
The little assistant has already become accustomed to the fact that Iwahashi-san happens to be at home when she sends Akina-san home.
On the other hand, it was because Akina-san told the office at the beginning of the year that she would get married this year.
At the end of the year, after Fengguang celebrated its tenth anniversary, Akina-san officially retired, and her little assistant had no use for her.
When he first entered the industry, he became Nakamori Akina's assistant. Once he followed her, he followed her for many years. To Assistant Momoi, it seemed that the job he was doing was not an "artist assistant" but "Akina-san's assistant"
”.
This means that after learning that Mingcai-san is getting married, all the assistant can think about is that if Mingcai-san no longer needs her, then she will leave Mingcai-san and go to a new place to find a new job.
Work.
At first, such thoughts only occasionally popped up in her mind, and she thought it was funny. But recently, in the little assistant's mind, such thoughts became more and more firm. She made up her mind that Akina-san would retire, and she would also
Will resign.
Not only the assistant, if Akina Nakamori were to retire, then the team that had been surrounding her over the years and the staff responsible for her would all have an important job arrangement vacant, and they would have to be replaced by someone else. Team members of Akina Nakamori
, this item is very bright in the resume. The people in her team who make suggestions are all elites in the industry who are eager to poach.
If Ben, the old manager, is no longer in charge of Akina Nakamori, he will probably become the agency's coordinating manager and will no longer follow any particular artist. After all, in the entire Kenyin, except for the princess Akina Nakamori, no one can always let a person
Senior agents circled around her.
June has entered, and the office has begun to formulate work plans for next year. Some work arrangements for next year are now entering the negotiation stage. For example, advertising contract renewal, or finalizing roles in TV series, this type of work has never been done.
If you make a last-minute decision, you should make preparations at least half a year in advance, or even a year in advance.
Once the work is finalized and until the contract is fulfilled, there must be no surprises during this period.
In June, Yanyin will officially confirm with Akina Nakamori. After getting the expected answer, the finishing work will be done based on the premise that "Akina-san will retire by the end of the year."
Even if a star retires, she still has to keep in touch with the agency. The agency and the record company still have to retain staff who are responsible for communicating with her. On every anniversary, the company will hold celebrations and release a collection, and the TV station may usually
Use her photos, performance footage, and songs.
In addition, if a singer wants to cover a song she has released, although she can directly cover it by paying the Music Association, the polite thing to do is to say hello to the original singer and obtain the original singer's consent.
Therefore, even if Nakamori Akina wants to retire and close the fan club, she will still have to keep her own personal agency and let Kenyin take care of it. The annual royalties will be transferred to her personal agency and serve as a link between her and the industry.
liaison between.
but--
Akina Nakamori does not plan to retire after getting married.
…
Now that the cooperation between Kenyin and Genzo has been finalized, and Akina Nakamori has become Kenyin’s real princess, Toshio Nozaki is not shy about posing as a daughter-in-law.
By June, decisions had to be made on various matters. He personally held a banquet to entertain Akina Nakamori.
From "Star! Birth" to now, ten years have passed, and Toshio Nozaki has watched Akina Nakamori grow up. Now, if you want to show the attitude of an elder, you don't need to rely on disguise. Naturally, you are somewhat sincere.
"How's the progress with Iwahashi-kun?" he asked kindly.
Akina Nakamori was also like a daughter about to be married talking to her elders. She told Toshio Nozaki, "Shinichi and I have decided on a piece of land in Meguro and plan to build a new home there."
"It's a good place." Toshio Nozaki smiled, "I feel more at ease when I heard that Mr. Iwahashi is buying land in Meguro."
His implication is that since Iwahashi Shinichi has the ability to buy land in high-end residential areas, Nakamori Akina will not have to worry about financial problems if she marries him. In this way, she can stay at home and be a housewife without having to work to support the family.
Genzo has released best-selling singers year after year. Of course Toshio Nozaki knew that Shinichi Iwahashi was rich, but he and Akina Nakamori, who was about to get married, naturally had to use a different rhetoric.
Because the point is not whether Shinichi Iwahashi has money, but to tell Akina Nakamori that she can retire with peace of mind.
However, Nakamori Akina told Nozaki Toshio, "Nozaki-san, can I continue to work after getting married?" The tone of her question sounded a bit mischievous.
It seems that he said this specifically to scare Toshio Nozaki.
Toshio Nozaki seemed to be cooperating with her, showing a hint of surprise, "Do you want to continue working? I really didn't expect this."
His generous response made Nakamori Akina couldn't help but smile. She replied in a brisk tone with a bit of childishness, "I didn't think of it myself."
I wanted to make money to support my family, so I took part in the talent show, entered the entertainment industry, and regarded being a singer or star as an ordinary job. I thought in my heart that I was like a woman who quit her job after getting married.
Like an employee, if she gets married, she will retire and be a good wife who takes care of the house.
As a result, marriage was about to happen, but I changed my mind for many years.
What made her even more unexpected was that she continued to work not to subsidize her family, but because she realized that what she was doing was not an ordinary job. The value of her job could actually provide the public with a better life in an era when dreams were shattered.
Bring comfort.
This was probably also influenced by Shinichi Iwahashi.
Shinichi Iwahashi always talks about "people in the entertainment industry have a responsibility to the public". And it's not just talk.
"I am very happy and welcome that Akina-chan can continue to work." Toshio Nozaki looked pleased and praised Shinichi Iwahashi, "Iwahashi-kun is also so reasonable."
"Yes." Nakamori Akina replied, "Thanks to Shinichi Ari's support."
When talking about the goodness of Iwahashi Shinichi, Nakamori Akina's expression changed. This Nakamori Akina, when she was seventeen years old, had everything written on her face. Now she is twenty-seven years old, and she still attracts people at a glance.
See through her mind.
From this point of view, Iwahashi Shinichi, who can always maintain support and love for Nakamori Akina, knowing that she can give everything for him, but still not thinking wrongly, can be said to be rare in Nozaki Toshio's opinion.
Character.
In particular, from beginning to end, Shinichi Iwahashi never revealed any clues about the Grand Prize incident. This made Toshio Nozaki even more impressed by this young man.
While knowing that Shinichi Iwahashi had character, Toshio Nozaki also knew that this young man was more difficult to deal with than he thought.
Such a person can be cooperated with confidence. However, it is not easy to cooperate with him. Iwahashi Shinichi is a young man who even Nozaki Toshio finds difficult. He is convinced that he can only be friends with him and will never be willing to do so.
The kind of person he makes enemies of.
Nozaki Toshio was concerned in his heart, but his face remained calm. He only smiled and expressed curiosity, "Why does Akina-chan want to continue working? Before, didn't she always say that after getting married, she should be a good wife like Momoe?
?”
Recalling old words, Nakamori Akina smiled, "Of course it would be nice to live like Momoe-san."
If Toshio Nozaki had not mentioned it, Akina Nakamori would not have realized that she had actually not thought about it for a long time, "like Momoe-san, retire at the same time as you get married and be a good wife."
Unknowingly, she seemed to have stepped out of her girlhood. When she looked at Momoe-san's legendary life, she felt longing in her heart. She no longer just looked at her mother's back, imagining the most traditional and warmest life.
Life.
It was being together with Shinichi Iwahashi that allowed Akina Nakamori to dream of her own dreams and plan her own life.
She blinked, and her thoughts flashed through her mind from when she first had the idea of continuing to work, to when she discussed with Shinichi Iwahashi and finally made the decision.
"But," Akina Nakamori replied to Toshio Nozaki, "this job now is also very meaningful."
Nakamori Akina felt ashamed to say words like "meaning" to others, as it was not something she could say. As if she wanted to ease her shyness, she first said her own fault, "It's up to me to say this.
Isn’t it strange? Nozaki-san must think so.”
Toshio Nozaki deliberately made an innocent expression and picked up the wine glass, "Would I think so?"
"It must be strange for Akina Nakamori to say something like this." She complained to herself. After she finished complaining, she became serious again, "But when it comes to answering the reason for continuing to work, the answer to the question is really like this."
I liked Akina Nakamori's attitude about continuing to work. It was obviously her own decision and not Shinichi Iwahashi's request for her to continue working.
Toshio Nozaki admired Shinichi Iwahashi in his heart for being able to support his wife in continuing to work even after getting married, and not caring about being judged by the outside world as a man who needs his wife to make money.
However, considering his consistent unconventional behavior, it is not surprising.
Akina Nakamori will continue to work even after getting married. Toshio Nozaki couldn't be said to be unhappy when he received such an answer, but he didn't feel happy about it either.
It is certainly a good thing that the firm's signboard does not need to be taken down. However, Toshio Nozaki also knew in his heart that when he was negotiating with Shinichi Iwahashi, it was based on the premise that Akina Nakamori would retire after getting married. Kenin would lose them.
The biggest money tree, and Iwahashi Shinichi was the one who took away their money tree - it was on this premise that they negotiated.
However, Akina Nakamori actually wants to continue working.
Although this matter was announced after the negotiations were concluded and the cooperation was established, Yanyin could not act as if it was nothing, and the two things should be treated as one and the same.
The reason why Nozaki Toshio wanted to confirm that the choice of "continue working" was due to Nakamori Akina's own ideas, rather than Iwahashi Shinichi's instigation, is because if this matter was instigated by Iwahashi Shinichi behind the scenes, this young man had bad intentions.
.
However, Shinichi Iwahashi is obviously not that kind of person.
Nakamori Akina didn't know what Nozaki Toshio was thinking, so she told him her thoughts on work arrangements after marriage, "Although I will continue to work after getting married, my first priority must be family."
Nozaki Toshio put away his thoughts and acted reasonable, "That's natural. In any case, from now on, Akina-chan will be the true hostess of the family. If you can't take care of your own family, you won't be able to work with peace of mind.
"
"Besides, the office here sincerely hopes that Akina-chan can live a happy life. Therefore, the premise of arranging work for you must not affect the lives of Akina-chan and Iwahashi-kun." Nozaki Toshio said.
For Nakamori Akina, nothing makes her happier than receiving blessings and understanding. Before getting married, there were a lot of blessings around her, which made her truly realize that she was moving towards happiness.
Nozaki Toshio got the accurate information from her, and he began to think in his mind that he would entertain Iwahashi Shinichi again. Or maybe the young man was already prepared and had the conditions in mind.
In this way, Yanyin also needs to make plans in advance and accept the move calmly.
In any case, even if Akina Nakamori's decision to continue working after marriage forced Kenin to consider how to deal with Shinichi Iwahashi, it would be a good thing for Kenin that she did not choose to retire after marriage.
Among the super idols of the Showa era, Momoe Yamaguchi deserves to be number one in terms of legends. Since her retirement in glory, the public's highest expectation for the career of a female idol is to marry a good man and retire in her prime.
Later, Seiko Matsuda, a super idol, broke these rules and chose to continue working even after getting married. After giving birth to a daughter, she still managed the idol career with ease, putting her younger generations to shame.
Of course, Akina Nakamori is also a super idol. And this super idol has chosen a path that is different from others. She has successfully transformed from an idol and has maintained her popularity. She is top-notch as a singer and first-class as an actress.
Now that her wedding is approaching, she has no intention of imitating her legendary predecessors. Rather, she is already a legend now. And, it seems, she will take another brand new path.
For Yanyin, as long as the firm's first sign is still there, even if she does nothing, it can bring real benefits to the firm.
Toshio Nozaki put these thoughts aside and continued to be the kind elder. He told Akina Nakamori, "Although we don't know yet when you and Iwahashi-kun will be naturalized, the press conference after naturalization will be held no matter what.
Let this side prepare."
Nakamori Akina replied with a smile, "Of course. When the time comes, I'll take care of everything."
