Kamai Sachiko stood in front of the phone, half surprised and half confused.
Last time I was invited by Haruko Akamatsu and tried recording for the first time in the recording studio. After leaving the recording studio, nothing changed. She continued to be her model, went to photo shoots, occasionally appeared on TV, and also worked as a show girl in business promotion activities.
The only thing that has changed is that she has a little more contact with Akamatsu Haruko. Of course, it is only to the extent of an occasional greeting phone call.
As for that first experience in the recording studio, Kamaike Sachiko never thought that there would be a follow-up.
Akamatsu Haruko told Kamai Sachiko that she gave her audition tape to Iwahashi Shinichi. After listening to it, Iwahashi Shinichi was very interested in her performance and wanted to chat with her in person.
"I'm sorry, is it convenient for you to come back to the recording studio? Kamachi-san." Akamatsu Haruko asked her.
Kamai Sachiko only paused for a moment before giving a positive answer. So, the two girls checked their schedules on the phone and agreed on a time to meet.
Before hanging up the phone, Akamatsu Haruko said to her, "Kamuchi-san, your voice is really nice."
"Hey?" Sachiko Kamaike smiled at the phone, "Thank you."
Until she put down the phone, she still felt a little strange about the content of the call. In fact, when she went to Genzo's recording studio for the first time, although Kamaike Yukiko knew that the chance was low, she actually also thought in her mind whether she would meet him.
That Iwahashi-san.
However, it was not an expectation to express myself in front of him, but a strange yearning.
In the eyes of musicians in the underground music circle, the name Iwahashi Shinichi has a special status. For Kamaike Sachiko, in her eyes, Iwahashi Shinichi is a person who can make others "dreams come true." Therefore, it also comes from the heart.
Respect him.
At this time, the doorbell of the apartment rang. Kamaike Sachiko recovered her thoughts and opened the door a crack. When she saw the energetic Okamoto Natsuki, she took off the chain on the door and let her in.
"Good morning, Yuki-chan~" Natsuki Okamoto stared at her face and said with a smile, "I see the dark circles under her eyes."
"But actually I do, but I cover it up properly." She added a little nonsensically. They both came back from work in the middle of the night.
Kamachi Sachiko showed an expression that showed that she could not do anything about her, and followed her in.
"Would you like some coffee?" Sachiko Kamaike walked into the kitchen. The kitchen only has a short kitchen counter. This is a typical single apartment that is small and well-equipped.
"Thank you." Natsuki Okamoto sat down on the sofa and looked at her, "Nakano-san wants us to go to the office at four o'clock. What are you going to do during the day? Yuki-chan."
"First go to Shinjuku to watch a movie, then go to eat, then go shopping after eating, and then spend time in a cafe until three-thirty. Isn't this the simplest arrangement?" Natsuo Okamoto had already prepared the draft, and he started talking as soon as he spoke.
Speak out your plans.
Kamike Sachiko raised her head and said, "Watching a movie is quite nice, but I have plans for the afternoon."
"Really?" Natsuo Okamoto joked, "Someone is so fast that he booked Yuki-chan's time before me."
Being teased like this by her, Kamachi Sachiko just smiled, made the coffee, and brought it over.
"Thank you for the treat~ What time did Yuki-chan make an appointment with that person?" Natsuki Okamoto asked.
Kamai Sachiko told her that it was two o'clock in the afternoon. On the phone just now, she and Akamatsu Haruko confirmed each other's itinerary. During the period, they hung up the phone once and asked Akamatsu Haruko to call Iwahashi Shinichi, and then decided to meet today.
This arrangement may be a bit hasty, but Iwahashi Shinichi is very busy now. It is not easy to meet him. He can only make every effort in these fragmented times. Therefore, even the etiquette of meeting and so on have been put aside first.
Went aside.
"Two o'clock?"
Kamai Sachiko changed the topic and asked: "What movie are you going to watch?"
"Is "My Neighbor Totoro" okay?"
If it's two o'clock, it's no problem to go to the movies and eat.
Kamike Sachiko smiled, "Have you already seen it once?"
"If it's Mr. Hayao Miyazaki, it doesn't hurt to watch it a few more times, right?" Natsuki Okamoto said clearly.
If it's Hayao Miyazaki, it's really worth watching several times.
Sachiko Kamaiike couldn't refute and nodded in agreement. The two girls packed up and went out to watch a movie in a cinema in Shinjuku. After watching the movie, they went to have dinner, enjoying the holiday after work.
It was almost half past one o'clock when Natsuo Okamoto and Sachiko Kamaiike said goodbye.
"I'll just go shopping and take a look myself," she said.
Kamai Sachiko looked apologetic, but Okamoto Natsuki didn't let her say what she wanted to say. She said optimistically: "However, if you are shopping at boutiques, you can have a lot of fun shopping alone."
It didn't count for him to say so, but he asked Kamachi Sachiko, "You think so too, Sachi-chan."
Kamai Sachiko nodded, the items displayed in the boutique counter were pleasing to the eye just by looking at them. She was also an ordinary 21-year-old girl, and she had the same ideas as Natsuki Okamoto on these matters.
Besides, the modeling job they are engaged in, as they are at the bottom of the entertainment industry, is a job that requires them to fight against their ideals and self-esteem to a certain extent.
Therefore, using the money earned as a model to buy good things to reward yourself can also be regarded as a kind of spiritual self-reward.
Girls who work in this industry earn more and spend more. In addition to the need to keep fashionable at all times due to their career, or the vanity of young women, there is also such a subtle factor in it.
"Then, I'll go hang out at Yuyayouya by myself." Natsuki Okamoto reminded her before parting, "You have to be at the office at four o'clock, Yuki-chan. Don't just go on a date and tell her about this."
forget."
Kamike Sachiko replied with a smile: "I will never forget it."
…
This morning, Shinichi Iwahashi had a meeting at CBS Sony to attend.
DreamseTrue's debut single and album are now enjoying quite good sales momentum. After their debut single "thebestten" debuted, it successfully broke through the top ten barriers and even reached the third place.
Driven by tour bonuses and singles, the sales of the album have also steadily increased. On-demand radio stations have also begun to request songs from the album. Little by little accumulation has allowed the album to have a taste of breaking into the top ten, setting a new record.
The debut single and debut album both entered the top ten of the charts in the same week. This is a personal record that is not great but is very impressive.
The debut single and album are in great shape, but I won’t just do nothing here and wait until the sales are over before taking action. I have just debuted, and I need to continue to produce works to maintain exposure and attention.
Today's meeting at CBS Sony was discussing the title of the new album and new single.
At this meeting, CBS, Sony, and U-Miz all sent people to come forward, and the three members of the band were also present. Nothing can be decided in one meeting, it is just to determine a few general directions.
However, the performance since debut has been good, and everyone has full confidence in the next single.
After seeing the good effects brought by the Glico commercial song, both the record company and the agency also intend to continue this model for the next new single.
It doesn’t have to be just an advertising song, it can also be the theme song of a TV series or variety show, an episode, etc.
In the golden age of television, every time a song was played on television, it was unknown how many viewers heard it. This effect was better than many publicity methods.
It was past 12 noon when the meeting ended. After having a working meal, Shinichi Iwahashi went to Yoyogi's recording studio. When he arrived, two girls, Haruko Akamatsu and Sachiko Kamaiike, were already on the sofa in the recording studio.
Sitting down.
Shinichi Iwahashi pushed the door open and came in. He saw two girls. He knew that the one with Akamatsu Haruko was Kamaike Sachiko. He smiled apologetically at the two of them and said, "Sorry, I'm late."
The two girls stood up from the sofa together and bowed to him.
Akamatsu Haruko said to Iwahashi Shinichi, "Kamachi-san and I have just arrived."
Iwahashi Shinichi glanced at the coffee table calmly. It was clean, and he knew that the statement "just arrived" did not seem to be a social rhetoric.
"I can testify that I just arrived." When Seiichiro Kuribayashi heard Iwahashi Shinichi arrived, he walked out with two cups of coffee and said to Iwahashi Shinichi.
Freshly brewed coffee cannot deceive anyone, as witnesses and evidence gather together.
However, Iwahashi Shinichi didn't answer his question, and instead asked him jokingly, "Where's my cup?"
Seiichiro Kuribayashi put down the two cups in his hands and replied calmly: "My cup hasn't been brewed yet." He went in to make coffee again.
…
Iwahashi San is much younger than expected.
Kamaike Sachiko quietly went to look at Iwahashi Shinichi and thought to herself. Judging from his appearance, he is only a few years older than her at most. However, at such a young age, he is already a respected producer.
Having seen his convincing works, Kamaike Sachiko had no such distrust in the face of his youth.
When Iwahashi Shinichi came in, he was just joking around. Kamaike Sachiko observed the interaction between him and Kuribayashi Seiichiro, and first got an impression of Iwahashi Shinichi as an approachable and gentle person.
In any case, Iwahashi-san, who is similar in age and approachable, is definitely easier to relax than Iwahashi-san, who is much older and stern.
Kamai Sachiko was no exception and thought so.
"Iwahashi-san, this is Kamachi-san."
At this time, Akamatsu Haruko served as the introducer and introduced Kamachi Sachiko to him.
Kamike Sachiko bowed to him, "Hello, I am Kamike Sachiko."
"Hello, my surname is Iwahashi." Shinichi Iwahashi bowed slightly and handed over his business card.
Sachiko Kamaike took the business card, carefully checked the title printed on it, and put it away. After a moment of hesitation, she said: "Um, I've been watching the band Heaven you're planning."
"Really?" Shinichi Iwahashi was very happy to hear what she said, "Do you like the band?"
Sachiko Kamaike showed a hint of embarrassment, remembering that when she was a student, in order to join a band, she went to the bands formed by boys to ask if they needed a female vocalist.
At that time, her love for the band was able to overcome her inner shyness, allowing her to take the initiative to approach that world that seemed to belong to men. Just like now, her love for the band Paradise allowed her to overcome her inner shyness and take the initiative to express her love for Shinichi Iwahashi.
Support for the program.
However, these thoughts could not be told to Shinichi Iwahashi when they met for the first time, so she just replied: "Yes, I like it very much."
Iwahashi Shinichi caught the micro-expression on her face and was a little curious about what she was thinking at that moment.
If you look at it this way, Sachiko Kamaiike is indeed a beauty. She works as a model and her manners are quite good. Haruko Akamatsu is already a great beauty. Sachiko Kamaiike is no inferior to her when standing next to her.
Not only that, after becoming a model, compared to when I was an office worker in a real estate company, my impression has also changed. But that is not a bad change.
Being at the bottom of the entertainment industry does not give her the temperament of a low-level model. In other words, such a girl makes people feel that she is not very compatible with the job of a photo model.
Why did you think of going from working as a clerk in a real estate company to becoming a model?
Kamaike Sachiko couldn't remember the guest he met by chance, and Iwahashi Shinichi didn't mention it, so he suppressed the matter for the time being.
…
After the greetings, the three of them took their seats. Kamaike Sachiko and Akamatsu Haruko sat on the sofa, while Iwahashi Shinichi moved a chair.
"I listened to Kamachi-san's demo tape that I left here." Iwahashi Shinichi tried his best to get to the point.
Kamai Sachiko bowed slightly politely, as if she was showing off her humiliation, and also seemed to express her apology for using their recording studio as an outsider.
"Do you like annlewis's songs?"
"Yes, I think Annlewis-san's style is very varied. However, my favorite songs are the songs after she transitioned to rock style..." Sachiko Kamaike said her thoughts calmly like a primary school student being asked questions by the teacher.
"Indeed, when listening to Annlewis's "Roppongi Hearts", I never thought she had also sung "Goodbye My Love."" Shinichi Iwahashi agreed.
"The song "Roppongi Hearts" sung by Kamichi-san is very touching," he said. "After I listened to Kamichi-san's demo tape, I thought that such a voice would be very effective if I sang rock music."
"I'm very curious. After hearing good things, I wanted to meet him in person. I heard that he was a friend of Akamatsu, so I took the liberty of asking her to help introduce him." Iwahashi Shin was half-joking.
"Just now Kamachi-san said that he likes the band Tianguo, and also likes Annlewis after transitioning to rock style. So, you must like rock music very much, right?"
Kamike Sachiko replied: "Yes, I like it very much."
Noticing that she was a little nervous, Iwahashi Shinichi thought about it and used this as an introduction to change the topic.
"So, among the bands that played in Band Tenkoku, is there anything impressive about Kamachi-san?" Shinichi Iwahashi smiled, "It's rare to meet a loyal audience of the show, so I also asked me to collect the audience's thoughts on the spot."
When Sachiko Kamaiike met, she first confessed to Shinichi Iwahashi that she liked the band Tenkoku, which made the current topic easier to carry on.
