The much-anticipated February 13th has finally arrived.
Early in the morning, Iwahashi Shinichi appeared at Wangan Plaza. After four days of intensive construction, the originally empty venue was now complete.
It was still early to leave the show, but you could already see the audience who came to take seats. They were not afraid of the cold wind blowing from Tokyo Bay in winter, and they were very energetic.
Today at the Wangan Plaza, a total of 1,500 on-site staff were dispatched, distributed in various locations of the venue. Most of them are temporarily hired hourly workers. The proportion of students is extremely high. This is because Iwahashi Shinichi, who hired
The idea of using students as part-time workers to advertise in disguise.
The salary for temporary workers is 12,000 yen a day, but some people find it too little, and after the salary is settled, they change their minds and say they won't come.
The hiring of temporary workers was outsourced to a specialized part-time company. When Iwahashi Shinichi was dealing with the people there, he heard them complain that twelve thousand a day was already a good price. In the future, the labor rate would increase, and maybe even fifteen thousand would not be available.
If a person does a job and is paid less, the boss will be unhappy and say, "I'm not here to do 3k."
The so-called 3k refers to the three k's: dirty (kitanai), tired (kitsui), and dangerous (kiken). People who engage in this kind of work are like rats in the sewer, unable to see the sun.
The nightclub where Shinichi Iwahashi worked employed this kind of workers. After closing time, before dawn, they would go in through the back door to clean up. After cleaning, they would leave quietly without letting the guests see them.
Those engaged in this type of work are either foreign workers or poor laborers from the valley.
Don't say that the Japanese have a humble attitude. The premise of humility is that you will still interact with you in the future and your status is higher than him and can always be higher than him.
On the way up, you have to maintain the upward momentum and then lead to and stay at the top. If you go downhill, you will find that everything you have has is in vain.
...This actually applies everywhere.
So, fight hard! Brave young men!
Shin Iwahashi straightened his suit, hung his work badge around his neck, and walked backstage. He was in charge of the logistics of the main stage today, so it would be best if it didn't conflict with his subsequent performances and he would just go on stage directly.
For today's performance, Miwa Yoshida started preparing the costumes to be worn in the performance a long time ago, and also used her "ingenuity" to design her own costumes, vowing that she has loved design since she was a child.
Iwahashi Shinichi had seen her poster design talent as a "blackboard newspaper expert", so he didn't believe this statement from the beginning. After reading the design draft, he was surprised to find that there were people in the world who knew less about fashion design than him.
People are here, and the meaning of their meeting is really to regain each other's confidence.
Complaints are complaints. Iwahashi Shinichi previously rejected Yoshida Miwa's poster with one vote. This time, he did not act dictatorially and rejected all her costume design sketches. Instead, he called Nakamura Masato and the three of them discussed Yoshida's decision.
Meihe's design has been improved.
Apart from things like posters, Miwa Yoshida’s clothes are part of her stage style. This free and unrestrained idea coexists with her unconstrained musical talent. Iwahashi Shinichi doesn’t think this personality should be obliterated. Besides, fancy clothes
It can also leave an impression on the audience.
"Shinichi-kun's clothes..." Yoshida Miwa finished tossing herself and wanted to get her idea on him.
Iwahashi Shinichi quickly shook his head, "I was so busy that day, there was no time to change clothes." He didn't stop her behavior because he didn't wear it.
Brother Nakamura, please help Miwa-chan realize her design dream! I will withdraw first!
In the afternoon, singers who came to participate in the music festival arrived at Wangan Plaza one after another. The temporary backstage space was insufficient. Except for the big-name singers, other singers were almost shared by two or three groups.
Iwahashi Shinichi only passed by his two teammates and exchanged a few words.
Yoshida Miwa rarely saw him in a suit. She took his arm, looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "Shinichi-kun looks stylish in a suit."
Iwahashi Shinichi pretended to be displeased, "Don't you look like this normally?"
Miwa Yoshida laughed and said, "No, he's very handsome usually." After a pause, "...but, do you really want to dress like this on stage in the future?"
This tone made it seem as if the person wearing the strange clothes was not herself, but Shinichi Iwahashi.
"Yes." Iwahashi Shinichi gave an affirmative answer.
…
I bought a ticket at naon no yaon, and Daikokumoji passed through the ticket entrance and entered the music festival venue at Wangan Plaza. At this time, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and the music festival had already started.
But even so, I only arrived after checking in at the hotel, confirming the route with the service desk, and setting off immediately.
All the important guests had arrived after dark, so Daikoku Moki was not in a hurry. He entered the venue, stopped in front of the stalls at the venue, and browsed the products sold at the stalls for a while, without rushing to the front.
The winter wind was chilly, but it was nothing compared to Hokkaido, where she had lived for seventeen years. She came to Tokyo all the way from Sapporo, Hokkaido, to watch this music festival.
Daikoku Moki was born on the last day of 1969, so even though it was already 1987, there was still a long time before he turned eighteen.
She has loved music since she was a child and decided early on to go to Tokyo after graduating from high school and work hard to become a singer. Therefore, she didn’t pay much attention to her studies. When she was in high school, she found a part-time job in a musical instrument store, and then joined a
An amateur band, singing in local livehouses during extracurricular time.
It was a student band, and every time a teammate graduated from high school, either to further his education, or to pursue his dream in Tokyo, he would have to face a turnover of members. In another year, she would graduate from high school and leave the band.
The members of the band often joke with each other that this band is a "job internship", a place for internship to confirm whether they want to continue working hard on the road of music.
As a result of Daikuro Moki's own internship, he hopes to become a professional singer and sing throughout his life.
Last year, Joan Jett came to Tokyo to perform. Daikoku Moki wanted to come to Tokyo, but was unable to do so. Therefore, during those days, she paid special attention to the news about the concert.
At the last show of the Budokan, Joan Jett announced that she would attend the music festival. Daikoku Moki heard about this through the radio station, and she was very excited and looking forward to it.
From that moment on, she decided that she must come to this music festival. Not just for Joan Jett, who was not able to see it last time, but for all the singers who performed on the stage.
After killing time for a while, more and more people flocked to the Wangan Plaza, and the people who had been wandering around to kill time also began to gather towards the audience area.
Daikoku Moki followed the flow of people and walked to the audience area in front. From a distance, he heard the introduction from the other side of the stage: "Next, there is a band from the Rabbit Country..."
A foreign band? Daikoku Moki was a little interested and pushed forward.
