It was said that she was accompanying her to Beijing as a guardian, but when she came to Tokyo, Zhangzi was even more excited than her daughter. Zhangzi, who is fashionable, beautiful, and likes liveliness, came to Tokyo, and it was like a giant amusement park. Just looking at it was pleasing to the eye.
A mother who has an innocent personality and therefore lacks a sense of responsibility. However, Hamasaki never complained about her in his heart.
When Ayumi Hamasaki thought about the first time he came to Tokyo, he was dazzled by everything he saw. Looking at his mother's excitement, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is also a manifestation of "heredity".
She is her mother's daughter.
Despite this, when they came to Tokyo this time, Zhang Zi, the mother and daughter who were supposed to have a good rapport, did not understand what her daughter was thinking, let alone her mood when she came to Tokyo.
When Ayumi Hamasaki came to Tokyo for the first time, he went to see Shinichi Iwahashi alone. This incident seemed to have greatly shocked Akiko.
She praised "Ayu is amazing~", but she hoped that when she went to Tokyo this time, she would accompany her daughter to meet Shinichi Iwahashi.
Akiko misunderstood that her daughter had someone she liked in Tokyo, but the truth was even more terrifying. It was only on the way to Tokyo that the mother and daughter gradually realized this.
I participated in the filming of a TV series and was clearly close to my dream of going to Tokyo, but I took the initiative to find the president Ayumi Hamasaki who suddenly appeared. Hidden in this approach was my confusion about the path I was currently taking.
If Ayumi Hamasaki has been shaken in her dream of being an actress, it means either becoming an enemy of the agency and denying its work arrangements for Ayumi Hamasaki, or accepting the reality and living as an actress without talent.
effort.
When Zhang Zi realized what her daughter was thinking, she couldn't help but feel nervous about it. Therefore, she hoped to stay with her to prevent things from developing in a direction that she didn't know about.
However, the more Akiko wanted to act with her daughter, the more Hamasaki wanted to be separated from her mother. It seemed that if she went to see Shinichi Iwahashi with her mother, she would lose the courage to sing to the president-san.
In the morning, Hamasaki went out alone and looked for the phone booth on the street corner.
Although the map that President Sang wrote for her can only be used once. But the first time she went to find him, she relied on herself. Therefore, no matter when, no matter where she is, she can use her own hands to map it.
Draw a definite map and find him.
Just think it yourself.
When Ayumi Hamasaki walked towards Shinichi Iwahashi, he realized that he had some power beyond his imagination.
The second time she went to see the president, Sang, she had more time than the first time. She walked into the phone booth and called the information desk.
The lady at the front desk of GENZO was a little confused by the sudden arrival of this girl. Hamasaki told her, "I am the Ayumi Hamasaki who came to visit before."
When he came here for the second time, Hamasaki came very calmly. But in a sense, this calmness did not come from the experience of coming here the second time, but from the subtle changes in his heart.
The front desk lady showed an expression that she was still impressed by her, but maybe it was just out of politeness, "Iwahashi-san went out and hasn't come back yet..."
President Sang never seems to stay in the company. Hamasaki Ayumi thought to himself, but then he came up with the idea that maybe the reason why he doesn't stay in the company is because he is no longer the "president".
With the determination that she would never leave until she saw Iwahashi Shinichi, she was led by the front desk lady to the lounge.
…
Recently, all the people surrounding Iwahashi-san are young girls.
First, he brought Utada Hikari to the company to work, and then a beautiful doll-like girl came to visit. What Iwahashi-san was doing in private made people curious.
The clerk complained secretly in his mind while quickly reporting the visitor's information.
Iwahashi Shinichi, a young guest who came early in the morning and was waiting for him, heard the clerk tell him the visitor's information. When he heard "It's Hamasaki-san who had visited before", his heart moved. But when he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but feel relieved.
Frowning lightly.
What is the reason for her coming this time?
Last time, Ayumi Hamasaki waited stubbornly, but just to say that she acted in a TV series. From this, you can know how stubborn this girl is.
More than half a year has passed since the last time we met. When I saw Hamasaki again, she looked more like a grown-up girl. Shinichi Iwahashi met her in the reception room, and Ayumi Hamasaki stood in front of him, her hands and feet seemed to be unaware.
It was just as stiff no matter where it was. Realizing this, Iwahashi Shinichi couldn't help but feel a little confused.
The bluffing girl who had always looked unwilling to admit defeat in front of him in the previous few meetings, always with a competitive spirit, that bluffing girl, suddenly disappeared at this moment.
Iwahashi Shinichi finally saw the weak side of her girl from her expression and gestures.
Does Hamasaki know that he is at a disadvantage at this moment?
In other words, when the girl faced him, her attitude finally relaxed. Although only a little.
Thinking of this, he spoke in a gentle tone and mentioned the TV series she said she wanted to participate in when she came last time, "In a few days, your TV series will be launched."
It seemed that the girl who showed weakness just now was just an illusion. The girl who had been working hard and acted like a hedgehog in front of him suddenly came back.
Why do you have to talk like an elder?
However, Hamasaki Ayumi was not angry with his tone because she hated Shinichi Iwahashi as her "elder". Rather, it was because she hoped that Shinichi Iwahashi was an "elder" that she said it to him.
I feel displeased by being treated like everyone else.
Ayumi Hamasaki was thinking about this, and his tone couldn't help but be thorny, as if he was losing his temper at him, and said: "The singer from your company sang the theme song of the TV series, and the actor Watanabe-san played the starring role. And also
The protagonist’s name is also…”
The name of one of the protagonists is "Shinichi Takai".
Listening to this emotional speech, Iwahashi Shinichi couldn't help but laugh and cry, and asked her: "Is there any problem with this?"
Ayumi Hamasaki had the courage to look at him directly, but she could not say the words "it seems like she is surrounded". Unable to speak, her morale could not be maintained. She looked away and said, "It's nothing, I just didn't expect you to be so famous in Tokyo."
strength."
She was discouraged, and Shinichi Iwahashi laughed, but told her seriously, "I'm not as powerful as you think, but I'm not a nobody either."
"I didn't imagine anything." Hamasaki replied quickly.
She had clearly made up her mind to come to see the president, and she was calm and calm while waiting for his return. However, as soon as she opened her mouth, she was like a hedgehog, insisting on confronting him.
Iwahashi Shinichi put away his smile, looked at her, and asked: "Have you received another job in Tokyo this time?"
When Shinichi Iwahashi didn't smile, Hamasaki didn't think he looked serious. On the contrary, when he didn't smile, his expression looked gentle and kind. Even if he was facing him, he still showed such a tolerant expression. Like
Just like father.
Hamasaki shook his head slightly, "No."
Iwahashi Shinichi showed an unexpected expression, thought for a moment, and asked her: "Did you come to Tokyo alone this time?"
"No." She responded briefly, as if subconsciously concealing her mother's existence.
Iwahashi Shinichi thought that she came to Tokyo with someone from the office, so he couldn't answer much, so he nodded empathetically and did not ask any further questions.
He asked instead: "How does it feel to be an actress?"
When chatting with an adult, will the rhythm of the topic be controlled by him? Such thoughts passed through Hamasaki's mind, but he couldn't help but answered obediently: "It seems different from what I imagined."
"Really?" Shinichi Iwahashi showed an interested expression, "What exactly is different from what I imagined?"
Hamasaki's eyes seemed wandering and she looked confused. She said: "I don't seem to be able to play another person."
Iwahashi Shinichi replied: "That's right."
What?
Ayumi Hamasaki suddenly raised his head and stared at the face in front of him. Shinichi Iwahashi began to smile again, and he reminded her, "Didn't you say that? 'No matter what role I play, I am who I am'."
"If you have this awareness from the beginning, then isn't it normal that you can't pretend to be someone else?"
Iwahashi Shinichi's words seemed to be "general", leaving Hamasaki speechless.
Ayumi Hamasaki lost the game, but she got an answer in her heart that convinced her. In fact, the answer itself came from her own mouth.
Rather than pretending to be someone else, I want to always be myself.
Always be yourself, this is the idea of a stage singer. At that time, Shinichi Iwahashi said this, but Ayumi Hamasaki didn't think so. But now...
Could it be that her dream is to become a singer?
She didn't come here to become a singer. However, there is a dream hidden in "singing for this president Sang".
I specially came to the record company to meet him. Although I was still covered in thorns, it was actually to talk about my worries. Iwahashi Shinji realized that he had played the role of a listener and waited patiently for the girl.
When Hamasaki came to his senses, he finally made up his mind.
At this moment, the obsession that pushed her towards Shinichi Iwahashi, the words that she wanted to say but could never say, finally became the words that she had to say. Sing to this president, and then the question will be answered.
.
At this time, Shinichi Iwahashi finally asked her, "Why did Ayu-chan come to me this time?"
"I haven't sung for you yet," Hamasaki said.
Iwahashi Shinichi suddenly heard such an out-of-the-box sentence and couldn't help but be startled.
Finally seeing his unexpected expression, Hamasaki seemed to have realized what she had been expecting. She looked at Shinichi Iwahashi and said again: "You haven't heard me sing yet."
Not for anything, no other reason, just to tell him that I haven't sung for him yet.
Shinichi Iwahashi relaxed his slightly frowned brows and looked at the girl in front of him.
