Director Kosugi and Kondo Masahiko, although the two sides used different rhetoric to persuade her to withdraw from the Grand Prize, they both wanted her to make concessions.
The only difference is whether it should be given to Hiroshi Itsuki or Masahiko Kondo.
When she realized this, Nakamori Akina suddenly felt an indescribable loneliness, a kind of sadness that she was always being asked for by others.
When I was a child at home, as a member of a large family, neither the eldest nor the youngest, in order to win the attention of my family and to be praised, I always sacrificed my own personality and put other people's will before my own.
After entering the entertainment industry and debuting as an idol, I met Kondo Masahiko and received his protection and care, so I fell in love with him. However, the good times did not last long. Soon after we started dating, my boyfriend began to have sex with others.
Before he could get the stable life he longed for, he first had the trouble of being betrayed repeatedly.
Despite this, Nakamori Akina, who has never been treated as the first priority in her life, when she was hurt, she thought about the care and attention that Kondo Masahiko had given her, and she still missed his original love.
When she was young, everyone in the family crowded into the small living room to watch TV, and no one paid her any extra attention. She deliberately imitated the comedians on TV and made her family laugh.
If the family atmosphere is like this, can other things be changed with such efforts? Just like the moment when no one paid attention to her family members, they smiled and praised her at that moment and focused their attention on her.
.
It doesn't matter whether it's worthless or anything else, if you get something you've never gotten before by chance, you'll never forget it.
However, no one told her that life requires such patience.
She has to endure the excessive demands and betrayal of her family, she has to endure her boyfriend's flirting, and she has to passively think about others. The value of life seems to always be giving, and no one has ever been on her side and thinks of her first.
Is it really possible to live a dedicated life like this? Akina Nakamori asked herself.
Director Kosugi spoke with great assurance, and Kondo Masahiko spoke with great fanfare, but in the end, she still had nothing to change, let her devote her life to it.
In a dilemma, feeling forced and having difficulty breathing, Akina Nakamori recalled very clearly the day she met Shinichi Iwahashi in the recording studio.
That day, after inviting him to listen to the recording, he said to himself: "This is a song that cannot be sung a second time."
Akina Nakamori heard the concern in his words and felt the sincerity and tenderness with which he treated others.
This person knows how to think about others...
Director Kosugi told her that if she didn't believe him, then go ask the agency. If she showed hesitation about participating in the Grand Awards, the agency would definitely let her go because they didn't want to offend the entertainment industry.
If the firm really supported her to withdraw from the Grand Prize to make way for others, as Director Kosugi said, it would be a great harm to her.
If the agency that she has always believed in and is trusted by her is not thinking about the artist, but only thinks about preserving her own agency, if that is the case, she will lose her trust in the agency and she will no longer be able to continue working together as before.
Go down.
Nakamori Akina was in a dilemma and could not ask the office for its opinion on this matter.
In such a dilemma, Iwahashi Shinichi's sincerity towards others shone like a precious gem, making her involuntarily want to seek his help in her heart.
However, she and Iwahashi Shinichi were not familiar with each other.
What has always been connected between them is a thread as thin and unpredictable as a spider's thread. I don't know how hard it can withstand the pull, and I don't know when it will break naturally.
This kind of unknown connection, which will be broken when it is unknown, makes Nakamori Akina unexpectedly lose the need to take risks when she is in front of him. She becomes calm in her heart and is not afraid to be herself in front of him.
If Iwahashi Shinichi knew what she was thinking, I wonder what he would think.
However, it would be nice if I could meet him and discuss this matter with him.
Nakamori Akina prayed in her heart that she could see him again. However, once she had the idea of taking the initiative to meet, she realized how weak a relationship without burden is.
When I went to work at a TV station or recording studio, I didn't consciously think about meeting Shinichi Iwahashi. I just turned around the corridor or entered and exited the elevator. I occasionally thought that I might meet him here, and then I thought about what a coincidence.
While saying hello.
But now, when she goes to the recording studio in Shimbashi, or to TV Asahi, she always thinks in her heart that it would be great if she could meet him. Every time she sets out with hope, she always leaves in vain.
And return.
We meet again and again based on feelings and fate, so we don't have to carry any baggage and can communicate calmly. However, once we lose this fate, it means that we have lost the opportunity to see each other again forever.
And in the midst of such repeated requests, Akina Nakamori vaguely realized that she was so eager to meet such a person who would think about her. Behind this matter, hidden was the desire to make way for others and the desire to continue to contribute.
aversion to life.
…
Akina Nakamori knew that Shinichi Iwahashi participated in the production of a program called "Band Paradise". When she wanted to meet but couldn't, on Saturday night, when she went to the recording studio to record, she went to the tea room during her break.
, turned on the TV.
The timing was perfect, the opening animation had just finished playing on TV, and the camera panned across the representative seats behind the examiners. Akina Nakamori caught a glimpse of Shinichi Iwahashi sitting there.
He was whispering to the female representative sitting next to him. Before Nakamori Akina could see clearly, the camera returned to Miyake Yuji. He introduced:
"At the beginning of this issue, representatives from Crown Records and Polystar Records sat in the audience with the dream of signing their favorite new artist... Of course, it's just a dream now."
Akina Nakamori was amused by Yuji Miyake's words.
Manager Ben came over with a cup, a little surprised, "Do you still watch Band Paradise, Akina-chan?"
"Well, I just happened to change the channel." Akina Nakamori said.
"Really? Speaking of which, my children and my wife were very happy chasing her."
"Mrs. too?"
"That's right, these participating bands are very interesting... probably there are handsome guys to watch." Ben smiled, "I heard that bandman is very popular."
On the TV, Miyake Yuji finished his witticism and turned to the topic, "Well, in order to make your dreams come true, today's program will begin. Let's invite the first band."
Akina Nakamori smiled, didn't answer anymore, and turned her attention to the TV.
