Sentaka Mori was not shy, so the answer given by Shinichi Iwahashi was also frank.
Because he was too frank, Senri Moritaka realized more clearly that Shinichi Iwahashi had no bad thoughts and was not a "gentleman."
While in the recording studio, Chisato Moritaka asked Shinichi Iwahashi if her conditions were bad.
But this is not so much her denial of herself, but rather the negative impact that Shinichi Iwahashi's series of operations have had on her.
And when Chisato Moritaka was able to ask these questions, there was a breakthrough in solving the problem of poor communication.
"Actually, Sekusi's idols are not new at all. They have been like this from the past to the present. And mini skirts are not anyone's patent. Most female idols have worn mini skirts." Shinichi Iwahashi said.
"If I just want to turn mini skirts into your selling point, that doesn't work."
Sentaka Chisato listened carefully.
"So, before I explain this matter, I first have to correct you on something that you may have made a mistake about. That is, even though you put on a mini skirt, it does not mean that you are going to be a Seku.
Idols of the West or idols who are sweet and coquettish. Moreover, the feeling you give me is different from those people. I don’t think you Sekusi, nor do I think you can win by relying on coquettishness.”
"Why?"
"There are many beautiful girls, and there are many cute girls, but compared to others, you have a rare and cheerful temperament. This is your magic weapon to win."
Iwahashi Shinichi explained, "Even if you wear a mini skirt, don't let people think it's Sekusi's. Even if you become an idol, you won't be sweet and coquettish, but healthy and full of vitality."
"So, the reason why I asked you to wear a mini skirt is not to force you to show the side of Sekusi, but to hope that you can show the healthy and energetic side of you. To use an analogy.
Say, like a bodybuilder or an athlete."
This was the first time he praised Sentaka Senri so directly.
In the past, her words were always to the point and merciless... When I asked Shinichi Iwahashi why he asked her to wear a mini skirt, Chisato Moritaka was not shy, but now, she feels embarrassed for this compliment.
"is that so……"
"That's right." Shinichi Iwahashi said firmly, "The judges of Pocari Selection also said that you have a positive, generous and energetic image, and I think so too."
"When you stand on the stage, you don't think about how to use this beauty to arouse the audience's imagination, but you think about how to use this beauty to impress the audience. This is the real meaning."
"Besides, not everyone is qualified to have such healthy and energetic beauty. This kind of beauty is innate with you. It is a part of your life and a part of your own strength, just like luck is a part of your strength.
That way.”
"For example, if someone comes from a wealthy family, wouldn't it be stupid to insist on drawing a clear line with their family in order to pursue the so-called self in life? Origin is also a part of oneself."
"Indeed..." Sentaka Senri couldn't deny it.
The topic of mini skirts has been discussed so far. Iwahashi Shinichi did not go further, but circled back to answer the two questions raised by Chisato Moritaka at the beginning.
"You ask me what I think of you..." He thought for a moment, then raised the chestnut, "Let me tell you a metaphor that sounds a bit strange. The ronin guy who packs fish at Tsukiji Market studied hard and finally passed the exam.
Attended the University of Tokyo.”
"This sounds great and inspiring, right?"
"Is there such a person?" Senri Moritaka looked surprised, "If it can really be done to this extent, it would be amazing."
"Perhaps there really is such a person somewhere in this world?" Shinichi Iwahashi smiled, "If there is such a person, it would really make people want to get to know him. But if it were the other way around, the guy who graduated from the University of Tokyo wouldn't
When you go to find a job, you go to Tsukiji Market to package fish without thinking about whether this will really happen. In short, it’s terrible, right?”
"It's very bad." Chisato Moritaka nodded.
"I was thinking about this issue when I was looking at your route."
"me?"
"You asked me how I view you, and what position I have for you... First of all, I made the plan based on the premise that you have broad potential. I believe you have such potential, and the future is promising."
"But now is not the time."
"Because of this, rather than letting you continue to be a powerful person and have people criticize you for being a powerful person, it is better to put down your status and start accumulating from the most basic place. First use what you have, and then put it into practice."
The things you don't have yet are slowly being perfected... Don't you think it's stupid for someone who comes from a wealthy family to insist on drawing a clear line with his family?"
"..."
"The plus-point system will only create expectations in people, and the minus-point system will only make people dislike it or not. Artists who are at the peak of their popularity when they debut will have a hard time in the future, and small people who start at the bottom will have a hard time.
Everyone says you have a bright future, right?"
After Iwahashi Shinichi said this, he stopped talking and picked up the coffee.
Sentaka Senri did not answer, but looked thoughtful. She unconsciously fiddled with the ice cubes in the cup with a straw, and the ice cubes rattled and clinked.
This unconscious little action exposed her childish side.
Chisato Moritaka thought about Iwahashi Shinichi's words, understood what he said, and understood his intentions.
At this time, she suddenly thought that maybe the reason why she has reached this point is because, in her own opinion, her acting career is based on a points deduction system. When she debuted, she had a bad start, and her points were points deducted first, and her lyrics were denied and she was deducted again.
, so much so that when I heard that I was going to wear a mini skirt, I had such a big reaction that I directly deducted my score to a failing grade in my heart.
However, after Iwahashi Shinichi took over her, he waved goodbye to the past, cleared her points directly, and then tried to find ways to find the shining points in her so that the points could be added slowly.
Add it slowly, and sooner or later it will be full.
She seemed to hear what Shinichi Iwahashi said behind the scenes.
The knot in Chisato Moritaka's heart was unknowingly loosened when he was competing with Shinichi Iwahashi. From the moment he left the recording studio, to sitting here and opening up and speaking out what was on his mind, he was finally able to slowly untie it.
.
Although it has been tied for a long time, there are still traces that cannot be recovered after being untied. However, as long as the knot is untied and can flow smoothly, sooner or later it will recover.
Chisato Moritaka has such resilience, Shinichi Iwahashi believes so from the bottom of his heart.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have put so much effort into enlightening her.
