Throughout March, Yanqiao's house was bustling with activity.
After moving into a new house, Miwa-chan brought her own hot pot and came to have dinner with Brother Nakamura. The four of them had a lively meal as if they were backstage at a red and white song concert.
Miwa-chan also announced to Iwahashi Shinichi that this specially ordered hot pot was a moving gift for the couple. As for its specialness, the most intuitive thing is that the "Iwahashi Family" logo is printed next to the pot.
Shinichi Iwahashi had so many things to complain about such a gift that he didn't know what to say, "Isn't this something only chain restaurants have?"
"Will it?" Miwa-chan was stunned for a moment, then realized it and nodded: "It seems so." She stuck out her tongue, admitted if she was wrong, and reflected readily, "I didn't expect that it was a bit strange to give it away by accident.
one's gift."
...You haven't given any gifts that aren't weird at all.
Iwahashi Shinichi secretly cursed, but Miwa-chan quickly reconciled with himself, "But fortunately, I brought more than one gift this time. As for this, just think of it as a special bonus, 'Iwahashi, Akina and D.C.T. exclusive hot pot'—"
-How about it?!"
Brother Nakamura smiled and said, "It would be more appropriate if these words were printed from the beginning."
What is said is absolutely true.
Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina nodded repeatedly. Miwa-chan let out a "ha" and started a friendly exchange with Brother Nakamura: "Since Masato-san has such a good idea, why don't you tell me?"
Miwa-chan and Nakamura's cross talk theater - another gift received by the Iwahashi couple.
…
Two of Iwahashi Shinichi's teammates brought the pot to the door. After that, the two of them entertained their respective friends and common friends one after another, and invited Iwahashi Masaaki and Chiyo from Shizuoka, as well as Chieko who lives in Tokyo.
People eat together in their new homes.
Okada Yukiko will continue her travels after the New Year and will not return to Tokyo until April.
It seems that when the time comes, she will have to be entertained alone.
In mid-March, Tetsuro Oda came to Iwahashi's house as a guest to congratulate his friend on moving into a new home. In addition to buying a gift for the puppy Kenta under the guidance of Shinichi Iwahashi, he also had an idea and brought a bottle of sake.
Now, not only the puppy is satisfied, but the puppy's father and mother are also very happy.
……Kidding.
Oda Tetsuro came here with curiosity about the recording studio set up by Shinichi Iwahashi at his home. He couldn't wait to go with the owner and his family to find out.
Although the recording studio at home is small and well-equipped, the equipment used is also first-class and of a professional level. Singers and composers who come to our home as guests can start recording immediately if inspiration strikes when they are tipsy.
Iwahashi Shinichi opened the bottle of sake brought by Oda Tetsuro and called Nakamori Akina, and the three of them drank and talked about music in the recording studio. Oda Tetsuro came to take advantage of the excitement and improvised, and the two of them harmonized for him casually.
It perfectly exposed Shinichi Iwahashi’s lack of singing ability.
It was the first time I heard Iwahashi Shinichi demonstrate his singing voice. Oda Tetsuro looked at Iwahashi Shinichi thoughtfully. After a while, he commented in an unnecessarily rigorous tone: "Iwahashi-kun has a very special
Singing ability.”
Tetsuro Oda had the ability to make serious statements that sounded sarcastic, but were actually speaking seriously.
Akina Nakamori, who was happiest when watching her husband's excitement, burst out laughing at Oda Tetsuro's words.
From this point of view, it would be better not to show off Shinichi Iwahashi's singing talent easily.
…
A few days after Oda Tetsuro visited Iwahashi's house, Misa Saehir came to Tokyo. The staff of GENZO records went to the station to pick him up, together with the staff sent by Watanabe Wan Yumi and Oda Tetsuro's respective offices - Ori
The representative of Tian Zhelang's office was himself, and everyone met in the conference room of GENZO Records.
Misa Saeba's debut arrangements are left to the record company. After her debut, she will participate in TV programs or commercial activities. Watanabe Manyumi's office will handle this aspect. As for Oda Tetsuro, he is responsible for the most important thing, training.
This newcomer has no foundation until she reaches the level to make her official debut.
Vocal lessons, guitar lessons, and physical lessons, etc., are arranged by the record company, and Oda Tetsuro himself participates in the instruction. In addition, there are also composition exercises and lyric writing exercises. GENZO has its own LIVEHOUSE chain store, so the timing is right
From time to time, relevant performances will also be arranged for Zuo Bo Mesa to conduct all-round practice.
Half of these training plans are basic exercises for singer training, and the other half come from Oda Tetsuro's requirements.
In addition to participating in the training, Misa Saeki will also join Tetsuro Oda's office with the title of clerk. Oda Tetsuro also specially prepared a business card for her.
From all aspects, the training of Misa Sabota has a flavor of the Showa era entertainment industry. In today's entertainment industry, there are fewer and fewer companies that still use this model to train new talents.
Since the meeting was held at GENZO, Shinichi Iwahashi showed up and listened to the staff's next arrangements for Misa Sabote, and confirmed that Misa Sabote had no objection to it.
However, Misa Sabota insisted on choosing an apartment of her choice, so the record company did not rent an apartment to her in advance. As a result, she had to temporarily stay in a hotel before deciding where to live.
After the meeting to welcome Misa Sabo, the representative of Watanabe Manyumi's office came over to say hello to Shinichi Iwahashi before leaving.
After returning to the office, Shinichi Iwahashi called Wanyumi Watanabe and informed her: "I will be entrusting you with the management affairs of Misa-chan Sabo from now on."
Watanabe Manyumi was on her way from the TV station to the filming site when she received a call and said to him: "It's really not easy... to let that child go to Beijing."
Iwahashi Shinichi smiled and said, "The person who really has difficulty is Oda-san."
"That's true." Watanabe Wan Yumi also laughed. She changed her words, "However, for the producer to make such a determination and be willing to wait for such a long time for the newcomer, as the people in black behind the scenes, our expectations have also greatly increased."
Mesa Zuobo is like a wild cat, but actually has quite a personality.
Oda Tetsuro was completely obedient to her. Although he was motivated by cherishing his talents and wanting to realize his dreams through her, this kind of tolerance was inadvertent and protected her, who seemed to be erratic and cat-like.
Characteristics.
At the beginning, when Nagato Daiyuki was taken under his command, before the two people had any differences, Nagato Daiyuki also protected Oda Tetsuro's personality in this way.
However, when there was a disagreement between what Oda Tetsuro wanted to try and what Nagato Daiko wanted him to continue, the disagreement was inevitable and eventually turned into a conflict that separated them.
Iwahashi Shinichi held the receiver and listened to Watanabe Manyumi's words, and this incident suddenly came to his mind.
He said casually: "Retaining the personal characteristics of newcomers is the way to retain risks and conflicts."
There was a pause on the other end of the phone, and Watanabe Wan Yumi quickly replied: "However, it is because the entertainment industry has to take such risks that new people full of possibilities emerge."
exactly.
Shinichi Iwahashi certainly agreed with Watanabe Wanyumi's words. He smiled, changed the topic, and said to her: "...The child said that he wants to decide where to live by himself and plans to find a house himself."
Watanabe Manyumi joked: "Normally, when newcomers have nowhere to stay, they will temporarily resort to the home of the senior executive who serves as their protector."
What she was actually talking about was that Shinichi Iwahashi had moved to a new home. When Shinichi Iwahashi sent a moving postcard, he also sent one to her. Watanabe Wan Yumi knew that he had moved to a new home, but she had never met him and it was inconvenient to mention it.
Iwahashi Shinichi said that it had nothing to do with him, "So, thanks to the changes of the times, I saved Wan Yumi-san such trouble."
Watanabe Wanyumi was speechless. It was rare that she was defeated in a back-and-forth battle with Iwahashi Shinichi. After the defeat, she came back to her senses, realized the meaninglessness of this approach, and said to him: "Congratulations not yet."
You are moving to a new home."
Iwahashi Shinichi smiled and said, "Thank you." He joked with Watanabe Manyumi and asked her, "Do you want to give me a gift?"
Watanabe Manyumi thought for a while and replied jokingly: "If you treat me to a drink."
Is this considered a celebratory drink?
As a housewarming celebration, it is indeed a toast to celebrate.
Iwahashi Shinichi agreed, "Of course, you are always welcome."
…
Oda Tetsuro devoted his heart and soul to Misa Sabota, as if he regarded her as his only work, another incarnation of himself in this world, and he was willing to work on her with such meticulous care to make her the most perfect new person in his mind.
On the other hand, when selecting singers for Tetsuya Komuro's next production, the criteria are unusually sloppy. As long as they have an outstanding appearance and have a certain outstanding feature, they can be candidates.
Becoming a new idol actor or a model in a fashion magazine is a direction that has been decided for a long time.
Mr. Nozaki, who is doing research, is best at selecting actors from among models. This time, in cooperating with the process of finding new talents for Komuro Tetsuya, he gave full play to his strengths and dug them out of fashion magazines for high school students or young adults.
Several female models.
Shinichi Iwahashi and Mayumi Watanabe also acted independently, contacting offices they knew and were familiar with, and occasionally going to clubs or discos for observation.
For the selection of newcomers, it is not necessary to be tall, but the body proportions must be good, and they must have a sense of fashion on the stage. The singing skills do not need to be outstanding. If the tune can be distinctive, it is also a talent worthy of being packaged.
It doesn't matter whether you know how to play a musical instrument or not, and whether you know how to make a sound scientifically. You can even deliberately not correct the singer's vocalization and let her sing in her own voice to create a special voice.
In various senses, selecting singers from small studios is recruiting people in the same way as idols are selected.
Although Shinichi Iwahashi participated in the talks after Saeba Misa came to Beijing, he hardly expressed any opinions during the whole process. In the early training stage, Oda Tetsuro's opinions were the most important.
However, at the meeting to select new members of the Komuro department, Shinichi Iwahashi needs to constantly express his opinions and decide the future of the new models or young idol actors in the resumes in his hands.
Tetsuya Komuro's creative power is strong and he is like a composing machine. TRF's new album, scheduled to be released this summer, has twelve new songs, and he announced that it was completed in just one week.
When the creator's inspiration is at its peak, it is a period of miracle creation. However, being able to create and arrange new songs in such a large batch is also a manifestation of Tetsuya Komuro's music being highly commercialized and streamlined.
For record companies, it is necessary not only to maintain the popularity created by the studio and constantly bombard the public, but also to keep the public fresh.
TRF is an unprecedented mobile disco stage group. Shinohara Ryoko is the Cinderella chosen by chance. What should be the setting of the next newcomer?
Is she good at singing, dancing, or has her own unique personality?
This meeting was held around the selection of new artists. Mr. Nozaki and Wan Yumi Watanabe were both present, and of course Tetsuya Komuro himself was also included. In addition, there were record companies and two agencies responsible for the selection of new artists and singer production.
personnel.
The resumes of the newcomers were circulated one by one, and everyone wrote down their own opinions and selected their favorite candidates, and then discussed.
Everyone present was very attentive and rigorous in this discussion. On the contrary, Tetsuya Komuro, who served as the producer, looked at the resumes of these newcomers. Although he always had an interested smile on his face, there was a trace of it.
casual.
After a round of circulation and discussion, five resumes stood out.
"How about considering this one, Hitomi Furutani?" Mr. Nozaki posted a resume like he was playing cards.
Hitomi Furuya, born in 1976, is seventeen years old. She is now a model for fashion magazines. She has a beautiful appearance and tall figure. If you look at the magazine, she is a pretty expressive girl.
This is a newcomer that Mr. Nozaki dug out of a fashion magazine. Although he has not met Furuya Hitomi in person, according to the staff around her, she likes music, and the singing voice she displayed when we went to karaoke should not be underestimated.
.
Taking all the conditions into consideration, he is actually a very suitable candidate.
If you want to train a singer from scratch, Yanyin may not be good at it. But if you want to find handsome guys and beauties who leave a deep impression on people, Yanyin is definitely worthy of your trust.
In the first round of rounds, Hitomi Furutani received a high score, and Shinichi Iwahashi also felt that this girl needed to be met. As for Tetsuya Komuro himself, although he showed a little carelessness just now, when everyone was discussing Hitomi Furutani,
He also showed a genuine interest in meeting her.
The first point was taken by Mr. Nozaki, and Hitomi Furutani's resume was taken out separately, and she was about to contact her office.
Mr. Nozaki's vision as a talent scout was confirmed, so he turned the topic to Shinichi Iwahashi, "What do Iwahashi-san think about the selection of newcomers?"
Iwahashi Shinichi took out a resume from his hand and said, "The five people selected have outstanding conditions. However, besides these five people, there is another person who interests me very much."
"My name is Kanda Uno, a model from the girls' fashion magazine "Petit Seven"," he said.
