The process of the debut press conference is basically fixed. What to say and what kind of questions to accept are all communicated in advance, so everything goes smoothly.
After the debut plan was announced, it was also announced that the band's debut single would be the commercial song for Glico Pocky. This information would be announced to the world through the media who came to attend the press conference.
After the official talk was finished, Brother Nakamura, as the representative of the band, expressed his attitude to the media, set some lofty ambitions, and said that he would "definitely work hard." Although he was sincere, it would be inappropriate to say these things in this situation.
It is undoubtedly a cliché.
However, with Masato Nakamura speaking as a representative, his identity as the mastermind behind the band is probably confirmed.
Wearing a giraffe hood, the fearless Shinichi Iwahashi showed his composure at the press conference.
The entire debut press conference did not last long and came to an end after fifteen minutes. After the end, in accordance with industry practice, CBS, Sony and U-Miz prepared red envelopes and gifts for the media who came to attend, and also provided other press conferences in the hotel.
Prepare a buffet at the venue, eat well and take good care of the people, and it will be beneficial afterwards. This principle will not change anywhere, especially when facing the media.
…
I held a press conference in the morning and continued working in the recording studio in the afternoon.
At six o'clock, the work was almost in progress. Iwahashi Shinichi remembered that he had made an appointment with Akamatsu Haruko to meet today, so he said hello to his two teammates and the staff of the recording studio and took the first step.
After finding a small restaurant and eating chicken risotto, he headed to Yoyogi's recording studio.
Akamatsu Haruko came one step ahead of him. When Iwahashi Shinichi arrived, she had already made coffee for Kuribayashi Seiichiro who was busy. Iwahashi Shinichi came over and had to prepare it for him.
"Stop being busy now, or you'll have to do it again later." Shinichi Iwahashi stopped her.
Seiichiro Kuribayashi was the only one working in the recording studio, and Shinichi Iwahashi greeted him again.
"Moritomo-san is coming from Kanagawa." Akamatsu Haruko said to him, "I told him the time and place of the meeting."
"Fortunately, our recording studio is not difficult to find." Shinichi Iwahashi said.
The two didn't wait too long. About ten minutes later, Moritomo Arashi knocked on the door of the recording studio.
As soon as he arrived, Kuribayashi Seiichiro stood up and said, "I'm going to have dinner, Iwahashi-san."
Shinichi Iwahashi had no memory of this young man who had participated in the band Tenkoku. It was also the first time for Moritomo Arashi and him to meet. If it hadn't been for Akamatsu Haruko, the two of them probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to sit face to face like this.
Moritomo Rashi is a handsome young man with a bit shy eyes, which counteracts the toughness of his appearance and makes him look very delicate. This kind of young man will probably be quite popular with girls in daily life.
Shinichi Iwahashi looked at him, and Moritomo Roshi also looked at Shinichi Iwahashi quietly.
This producer looked too young, so young that Moritomo Arashi couldn't believe that the band Tenkoku, which has become a hot topic now, was his project. It was also in this program planned by a young man who looked about the same age as himself.
, he failed miserably and was so shocked that he doubted whether he could be a musician.
Akamatsu Haruko went to make coffee and brought it over, and then sat beside him.
When she arrived, the conversation officially began.
As expected, I have to start with the long-past debut of Bolan Band in Heaven.
Now that he mentions this incident, Moritomo Arashi still feels very regretful, "Although I didn't expect to win, I didn't expect to be so embarrassed."
This regret passed in an instant, and Moritomo Rashi continued: "Because I was so embarrassed, I kept thinking after that, would it be different if I appeared later, or if I had to do it again? Of course, I also understand in my heart that the reason for the failure is
It’s not because I’m timid, it’s because the level is far from enough... Especially after I watched many more episodes of the show and saw the level of a truly outstanding band, I felt this way.”
"The thought that I didn't want to win was actually a hint to myself in advance because I was not good enough." Moritomo Rashi said this and paused, "Such constant regret and reflection made me realize that I am
Because I like music and have ambitions for music, I can't let go. So I decided in my heart that I should pursue music as my life goal."
Because of this, he contacted Akamatsu Haruko, and then showed up at Yoyogi's recording studio, where he sat face to face with Shinichi Iwahashi.
"I feel more relieved after hearing this."
Iwahashi Shinichi's words left both Moritomo Arashi and Akamatsu Haruko a little confused.
"When Akamatsu-san introduced you before, you said that you had no intention of taking the stage. Just now you said yourself that you had no intention of winning. I'm still thinking that that would be dangerous." Shinichi Iwahashi said,
"You can't be a professional musician unless you try your best. If Akamatsu-san introduces such a person to me, I will feel very embarrassed."
"But now that you have said that you want to pursue music as your life goal, it makes sense." Shinichi Iwahashi thought for a while, "Moritomo-san, what are the plans of your teammates who are participating in the competition with you?
?”
Moritomo Arashi replied: "Aoki-kun said that if I give up my job and become a band, then he will join me."
"In this case... if you don't mind, how about calling that 'Aoki-kun' next time and performing a show here together?"
Moritomo Rashi gave an affirmative answer, "If I didn't have this idea, I wouldn't be here."
When he said this, his posture finally looked confident.
…
After Moritomo Arashi left, Iwahashi Shinichi remembered it and asked Akamatsu Haruko, "Tell me, how did you get to know him?"
When mentioning this matter, Akamatsu Haruko replied: "Maybe it's fate? We met by chance."
"Fate is mysterious." Shinichi Iwahashi didn't mind this ambiguous answer.
"To be honest, it was fate that Yoshida-san and I met at that time. Like you said, we met by chance and then formed a band... Maybe this Moritomo-san can also become your Yoshida
mulberry'."
Iwahashi Shinichi encouraged her with these words. Akamatsu Haruko listened and felt his pride in discovering Yoshida Miwa.
She smiled.
At this time, Seiichiro Kuribayashi came back from dinner and saw that the young man just now had left, so he asked: "Who was that just now?"
Iwahashi Shinichi looked at Akamatsu Haruko and said to Kuribayashi Seiichiro, "I can't say for sure yet, but maybe we will become colleagues who work together."
"Really?" Seiichiro Kuribayashi smiled, "Then can I relax a little bit?"
"I'll make it easy for you now."
Shinichi Iwahashi stayed in the recording studio, teamed up with Seiichiro Kuribayashi, and finished the work he was doing.
