When Noriko Sakai debuted, SUNMUSIC built her as "the last pure idol". After that, she really made a name for herself and gained a group of loyal fans.
However, she is famous as a pure person, and is limited by this. She is a popular idol, but she failed to become a first-class star. However, after becoming popular for a while, with the arrival of the idol ice age, she also fell into the orthodox idol.
We are facing a bottleneck period. In the past few years, former idols have transformed one after another, and Noriko Sakai has also changed her track and focused on her career as an actress.
Shinichi Iwahashi had a few encounters with Noriko Sakai a few years ago, but they didn't have much interaction with each other. Although he was familiar with her name to some extent, Shinichi Iwahashi didn't do much to her because of it.
s concern.
With the advent of the idol ice age, Noriko Sakai's idol career has not reached its peak, but has reached a trough first. This name recently appeared in his sight again because of a TV series that is currently on the air.
This year's spring TV series "Under the Same Roof" on Fuji TV's spring season immediately gained a huge amount of buzz after the first episode was broadcast, becoming the most popular work in this year's spring season. Noriko Sakai participated in this drama as the main role
TV series.
Since "Tokyo Love Story" became popular, Fuji TV's monthly slot has become the premier prime time slot. "Under One Roof" is Fuji TV's most ambitious work.
Although it is a family drama, this family drama is different from the past, unfolding in a manner that pioneers a new form of family drama.
This TV series is about a big family with six brothers and sisters. After both parents passed away, the children were adopted separately. From then on, they became separated and the big family ceased to exist.
Many years later, the protagonist, the eldest son, has his career ruined due to injury. He returns to his hometown to look for his relatives, hoping to return to the life of his former big family. However, the younger brothers and sisters each live a bad life, and the old family has long since
Falling apart and "reliving his old life again" is just his wishful thinking.
But despite this, the protagonist still holds on to this seemingly wishful belief and works hard for it.
The first episode of the TV series was aired, sparking a huge discussion among the audience, and the ratings have also been rising since then. The screenwriter of the TV series, Shinji Nojima, and the actors who participated in the show have all attracted attention and have bright prospects.
The reason why this TV series has aroused such a strong response among the audience is because it is a family drama about rediscovering the family. At the moment, it hits the fragile hearts of the audience.
After experiencing the bubble era and the bursting of the bubble, in Japan today, big families are falling apart and trust among relatives is lost. The protagonist, who was once high-spirited but cut off his upward path due to injury, is looking for spiritual closeness in the shaky loneliness.
Like some kind of metaphor.
Good works all write about the times. From this point of view, Fuji TV has keenly captured the rhythm of the bubble bursting and the changing times.
When "Tokyo Love Story" was on the air, it meant that Fuji TV had grasped the pulse of the times. Now, the popularity of "Under One Roof" has determined the new TV station pattern, and what follows is the era of Fuji TV.
In such an important TV series, the character played by Noriko Sakai is a character who maintains an unethical love affair with her boss when she first appears. But her background is pure and beautiful. When the protagonist, who is the eldest brother, finds himself,
With support in her heart, she was no longer lonely, so she resolutely gave up her previous life and returned to her family.
Purity idols cannot reach the top if they do not deface themselves. However, how to deface them also requires skills, that is: they must be defaced by external things. Even if they are defaced, they are still pure.
In other words, the more defaced it is, the more it means her purity.
Noriko Sakai played this role, which not only did not damage her innocence, but also enriched her image.
When Iwahashi Shinichi learned that she had received such a role, she admired SUNMSIC's agent in her heart.
I remember that the person in charge of her was Noburo Mizoguchi, Yukiko Okada’s former manager. With such a shrewd and capable manager who helped her break through while also trying his best to maintain her image, she shouldn’t have ended up in such a career.
road.
However, thinking of Okada Yukiko, Iwahashi Shinichi felt that it was not surprising that Sakai Noriko would take such a retreat.
With the popularity of "Under the Same Roof", Noriko Sakai's career will definitely reach a higher level. As a pure idol, the pinnacle that cannot be reached may be achieved through the career of an actor.
Singing and acting is an ideal state, especially for SUNMUSIC, which manages idols. Noriko Sakai has a foundation in the idol era. Taking advantage of her current popularity, continuing to release records may increase the sales of records.
Iwahashi Shinichi had just taken over a real "pure school", and he couldn't help but become interested in Sakai Noriko, who seemed to be a pure school.
Compared with Noriko Sakai, who was born in an unfortunate family but became a naive idol of the purists, who seems to have everything in hand, but is actually shaky, Miki Sakai seems boring.
Shinichi Iwahashi has shown little interest in Noriko Sakai for several years, but now he is curious about her.
However, the portals are different, and if there is no opportunity, there is almost no chance of dealing with them.
He is also a singer and performer. At the moment, the most realistic thing for Shinichi Iwahashi is to plan with AMUSE to arrange the next record release for Masaharu Fukuyama, who also played the main role in "Under the Same Roof".
matters.
In this TV series, Masaharu Fukuyama plays the younger brother of the protagonist, a mature and cold-blooded doctor. With the appearance and temperament of Masaharu Fukuyama, he was not popular when he was in his teens and twenties, but once he entered the ranks of adult men, he immediately showed his full potential.
For the agency, this type of actor is the real and lasting golden meal ticket.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After all, boyhood is too short. Besides, the true love of a housewife and wife is always a mature man.
From being ignored when he debuted to steadily gaining popularity, Masaharu Fukuyama has now become a highly anticipated and popular actor with the popularity of this TV series. On the other hand, his singing career has also accumulated a lot of popularity.
So far, there is only one single that is really a hit.
This time, there is the popularity bonus of "Under the Same Roof". If used properly, a real amphibious star can be born smoothly.
The TV series is on the air, and AMUSE should pay more attention to this opportunity than GENZO. In order to achieve the goal of pushing Fukuyama Masaharu to greater heights, AMUSE's Ohri Yokichi and Iwahashi Shinichi negotiated to take advantage of this hot topic to
Masaharu Fukuyama releases new single and album.
Fukuyama Masaharu's musical talent is actually limited, and he is not the kind of inspirational composer. But he is good at asking for tricks. When he sings and sings by himself, he only writes songs that suit his voice conditions. Although the person who suggested that he write songs that he is good at is Iwa
Hashi Shinichi, but looking at his subsequent creative ideas, I still have to say that this is a first-class smart person who can not only avoid shortcomings but also exploit his strengths.
Osato Yokichi has great ambitions and vows to create a real "star". He attaches great importance to this opportunity and stated that he will prepare the highest level of publicity for Fukuyama Masaharu, and he is bound to win.
GENZO is only responsible for the production and distribution of Fukuyama Masaharu's music. Of course, Iwahashi Shinichi did not hesitate to support it with both hands and hoped that Fukuyama Masaharu would become a big success.
…
In April, Iwahashi Shinichi not only has to accept new singers and arrange their debut, but also pay attention to the album release plan of the old singers this year. Fortunately, in addition to the new singers who have to be reviewed by him, the singers who have already debuted really need to go through him.
Not many hands.
The single "Don't Give Up" released by ZARD in January exceeded 2 million copies before Ryoko Shinohara's "Love, Heartache, Strongness". It is only a matter of time before the latter reaches 2 million, making GENZO a success in the new year.
At the beginning, he scored two two-million-dollar singles, leading the industry.
"Don't Give Up" was a hit and left a deep mark on the world. However, the promotional period for the single has passed, and the band must gather their emotions as soon as possible and prepare for the next work.
The most popular single since their debut was not an original work by the band, which made the musicians responsible for composing the song feel a bit at a disadvantage. Therefore, when the band held a meeting to discuss the creative ideas for the next single, several
The musician expressed the hope of producing another song with rich connotation.
However, Sachiko Kamaichi raised objections, believing that we should stick to the path we have always taken and produce songs that are close to life. The slogans of love and peace are hollow, and the shouts of cheering are like watching from a distance. Only by staying close to life can we impress the public.
"Don't Give Up" was successful not because it was rich in connotation or philosophy. If someone else sang it, the song might not have achieved such success. From this point of view, the song became the band's most popular single.
, and it’s not because the members lost to Tetsuro Oda.
When it comes to the production route of the song, Kamai Sachiko shows her own opinion and persistence. Although her personality is reserved and shy, when it comes to work, the female lead singer of this band is unwavering and works hard to convince others. Not only that.
, she was finally able to successfully convince her teammates to continue composing music in line with the ZARD worldview at her own pace.
Iwahashi Shinichi later heard about this discussion within the band from Akamatsu Haruko. Knowing that Kamai Sachiko could single-handedly convince his teammates, he felt completely relieved about this band in his heart.
Although the musicians are responsible for composing and are indispensable to the band, the backbone of the band is Sachiko Kamaike. Because she sees the most important thing that makes ZARD become ZARD. Each of the musicians is talented and can write
A best-selling song. However, only by forming ZARD with Sachiko Kamaiike can we achieve higher achievements.
After the band releases a hit single, corresponding considerations must be made when choosing the next single. But now it seems that there is no need for Shinichi Iwahashi to interfere with ZARD's next step, and there probably won't be any need for it in the future.
…
He takes care of everything in GENZO. Outside of GENZO, there is another job that must be done by Shinichi Iwahashi, waiting for him.
This year, DREAMS E TRUE will hold its second circus tour. Previously, KIRIN announced that he would only return to the circus tour for a limited time. In the next few months, Shinichi Iwahashi will put on the giraffe hood again and perform live performances.
In order to hold a circus tour, a new album must first be released.
According to the rules set during the first circus tour, this new album will come with song voting tickets. The audience will choose their favorite song from the songs released by the band since its debut, and finally vote according to the rules.
The results are used to determine the concert playlist, the order of performances, the performance specifications of each song, etc.
When the first circus tour was held four years ago, not long after the band debuted, there were not many songs to choose from in order of ranking, but it is different now. The more songs to be selected, the less enthusiastic the audience will be to participate.
The higher. Although the team probably knows which songs have the highest number of votes, for the audience, this is a precious "participation".
On the fifth anniversary of his debut, plus his second circus tour, and after DREAMS E TRUE entered the new system, Giraffe Man participated in the tour as a "limited appearance" for the first time, which was full of topics. The album has not yet started production, but has just been released.
Once the release information is released, it has attracted the attention of the public.
At a time when Tetsuya Komuro was born, various solo singers broke out, and new bands continued to emerge, DREAMS E TRUE, which immediately became the headlines as soon as there was new information, is a well-deserved national band.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The circus tour is the highlight, so after quickly handling the backlog of work at hand, in mid-April, Shinichi Iwahashi returned to DREAMS as a band member
E TRUE, was involved in album production and tour meetings, either going to Sony's recording studio to report or going to the Sony Records building for meetings every day.
Although the band's production talent changed from "KIRIN" to "DREAMS E TURE" when the contract was renewed with Sony, the theme of the new album has always been decided jointly by the three people.
After becoming a producer, Miwa-chan still had no interest in attending record company production meetings. She only focused on the recording studio, the stage, and every place where she could only sing. Nakamura-san, on the other hand, has been
After renewing his contract with Sony, he began to actively participate in work other than record production, consciously increasing his weight behind the scenes.
After the band became popular, the three of them each had their own arrangements outside of the band's work, especially Iwahashi Shinichi, who was busy with work. Except for the record production and promotion period, the three of them did not meet together as often in private.
Not much. The last time we had dinner together was when Shinichi Iwahashi moved into a new house. Miwa-chan came to the house with a pot, and Brother Nakamura went to help him and Akina Nakamori celebrate.
However, no matter how many times we meet, Miwa-chan is still the same Miwa-chan, and she will never lose her bravery as a mouse carrying a gun.
She is full of anticipation for the upcoming circus tour, like a primary school student who will go on the autumn tour the next day. Although the first show of the tour is scheduled to start in July, at this moment, even the album with voting coupons has just begun.
Make.
Even so, it did not dampen her enthusiasm.
The album has not been released, and the audience's voting tickets are still missing. She started to calculate which song will win the first place this year.
""Future Vision II" is the number one song on the karaoke on-demand list, probably this one."
"However, Masato-san's "The Decisive Battle of Jin Yao Ri" is also very impressive now..."
For some singers, if they sing a hit song too many times, they will feel like they want to vomit. But Miwa-chan’s optimistic personality is fully reflected in this place. She is happy to sing whatever everyone likes to listen to, no matter what the requirements.
How many times did she sing it? Not only that, she also plausibly said, ""Future Vision II" is played millions of times in karaoke every year. I only sang it a few times."
Although Shinichi Iwahashi didn't understand her logic in connecting the two things together, fortunately, he was just listening to the fun and didn't think about the true meaning of Miwa-chan's words. He listened to Miwa-chan's words carefully
After thinking about it, he joked and complained: "What kind of people are there to sing such difficult songs in karaoke?"
"What's wrong? As long as you're happy, it'll be fine." Miwa-chan retorted seriously.
Yes. When you sing DREAMS E TRUE songs, you will definitely be very happy. When you sing songs off-key, you will be twice as happy.
While Shinichi Iwahashi was complaining secretly, Miwa-chan's thoughts were already racing to the next step, and she decided that if she won "Fight at Golden Sun", she would arrange a special celebration session for Nakamura-san at the concert.
When Miwa-chan is full of energy, people around her will inevitably suffer. Thinking of the explosive behavior she might do, Iwahashi Shinichi secretly felt worried for Brother Nakamura.
It is not only the gift of fate that has a secret price tag, but also the victory when the opponent is Miwa-chan.
…
During a break in recording, Miwa-chan pulled open the chair opposite Shinichi Iwahashi, propped up her elbow with one hand, and looked at him. It was clear from his appearance that he had bad intentions.
Iwahashi Shinichi glanced at her and asked casually: "What's wrong?"
Miwa-chan discussed with him, "When will Shinichi-kun invite Masato-san and I to your home again?" It was a discussion, but it was no different from making a direct request.
"I finally ordered such a special pot, wouldn't it be a pity to keep it there?" She was very reasonable.
Iwahashi Shinichi replied deliberately: "That's right, it's a pity not to use it all the time. Akina and I will eat hot pot more times, and it just so happens that the house is busy right now..."
When Miwa-chan heard the first half, she was still gearing up and preparing to tell Shinichi Iwahashi about the use of the custom-made hot pot about the size of the sandbags. When she heard the second half, her attention was immediately attracted and she asked: "
What's happening?"
"Are Shinichi-kun and any of Akina-chan's relatives visiting recently?"
Miwa-chan had long forgotten about her hotpot.
If this guy's curiosity is not satisfied in time, he will definitely go in a strange direction. Iwahashi Shinichi knows her personality well and reveals the correct answer as soon as possible: "My friend's daughter is staying at home recently."
"Really?" Miwa-chan nodded, and her thoughts returned to the hot pot topic just now, "Then next time you go to Shinichi-kun's house to eat hot pot, you should bring a cake as a gift."
Iwahashi Shinichi admired her brain circuit, but still reminded: "If you want to bring a gift, I'm afraid you have to bring two."
"I have one portion of Masato-san, of course two portions." Miwa-chan replied quickly, looking at Iwahashi Shinichi's face, she suddenly came to her senses, "Could it be that there is more than one child staying here?
"
Seeing Iwahashi Shin nod, Miwa-chan commented seriously: "In just a few days, great changes have taken place around Shinichi-kun."
"..."
Perhaps the purpose of not seeing each other for a while is to prepare more topics for Miwa-chan to talk about and make her popular.
Now that it was brought up, Shinichi Iwahashi told Miwa-chan about the two children who were currently living at home. As for later, she and Nakamura brother went to the house to eat hot pot. Utada Hikaru and Hamasaki Ayumi saw the members of DREAMS E TRUE with Sanque
How to react when a person comes to visit is another matter.
After hearing the whole story, Miwa-chan said with emotion: "Shinichi-kun and Akina-chan are really amazing."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What's so great about this?" Iwahashi Shinichi was confused.
Miwa-chan offered up her precious fallacy and said plausibly: "Not long after we moved into our new home, we let others move in one after another instead of enjoying our world together. Isn't it amazing enough?"
Iwahashi Shinichi was speechless. Miwa-chan became more enthusiastic and sighed, "I wonder if Shinichi-kun and Akina-chan's lines are too thick for this."
...The one with the thick lines is you, right?
Miwa-chan seemed to be really troubled by this. She thought about it carefully and showed a look of realization, "Could it be because you have been dating for so long that you don't have the freshness of being newlyweds?"
Iwahashi Shinichi quickly interrupted: "It's too unwise to say that."
Miwa-chan nodded, "That's right." After thinking for a while, he thought he was smart and added: "Then think of it as Shinichi-kun and Akina-chan, the two of them are experiencing the life of having two adolescent daughters at home in advance."
"...However, adolescent daughters can easily hate their father. Please be careful, Shen Yijun, and don't do anything that will make you hate your father!" she reminded kindly.
Miwa-chan is truly a genius when it comes to making people angry.
…
Iwahashi Shinichi finished frying soybeans with Miwa-chan in the recording studio. He felt a mixture of anger and amusement, mixed with a little bit of exhaustion and weakness after being bullied.
After finishing the recording, Shinichi Iwahashi said goodbye to his two teammates and went to meet Akina Nakamori. As soon as they met, he couldn't help complaining to his wife. Unexpectedly, the wife listened to Miwa-chan relayed by Shinichi Iwahashi.
But he laughed hard and showed no sympathy.
"Miwa-chan is quite considerate of others." She stood on Miwa-chan's side.
Shinichi Iwahashi was reluctant, "Really?" He raised his eyebrows and looked at Akina Nakamori. For a moment, it seemed that from her words, he could taste a little regret for letting girls live in his home one after another.
Nakamori Akina nodded, but did not answer the question directly. She asked instead: "Isn't this the kind of character Miwa-chan is?"
"That's true." Shinichi Iwahashi also complied with his wife's words.
At this moment, the two of them were dining in a restaurant in Minami Aoyama.
Today, Shinichi Iwahashi and Akina Nakamori both had jobs. Seeing that their schedules would work out well, they simply put the two girls at home aside and made an appointment to have a meal outside after get off work.
