The staff member thought about it for a while and then slowly said: "To be honest, I think it's really embarrassing for such a band to perform here."
Iwahashi Shinichi had never heard such harsh words.
When I was with Miwa Yoshida, both of them were more determined than ordinary people when it came to performing, and they were "almost like no one else" in an ideal sense. Therefore, nothing so outrageous had ever happened.
.
This has never happened to the bands they work with.
After hearing this, the expression of the newly joined bassist Tomohisa Kawazoe changed, and the expression of drummer Masaho Koyanagi was not good-looking either. Only the leader Tatsuya Hirakawa looked normal, and the expression of Haruko Akamatsu who caused the performance accident also changed.
Nothing comes out.
At this time, she was too calm, which was more likely to annoy people than being downcast.
After the staff left, the newly added bassist Tomohisa Kawazoe said stiffly: "I'm going outside to smoke." After that, he walked away.
Iwahashi Shinichi ignored him and only talked to Akamatsu Haruko.
"I'm sorry, I want to ask you, Akamatsu-san"
Akamatsu Haruko raised her eyes and looked at him.
Those eyes were so calm that nothing had happened. Shinichi Iwahashi couldn't help but miss Miwa Yoshida and even Mari Amaya in his heart. In his opinion, although Haruko Akamatsu was very beautiful, she lacked sincerity when dealing with others.
"A shy little lady who loves to cry", Takeuchi Akihito probably had a profound misunderstanding of his cousin.
"Akamatsu-san, do you understand what the show is all about?"
Upon hearing this, Akamatsu Haruko lowered her gaze slightly and did not answer. However, it was not a silence of escape, but rather as if she was waiting for his next words.
"Performances are never only for people who applaud and cheer you. However, they are not only for people who boo and ridicule you."
"If you become complacent because you are cheered, or if you shrink back after being booed, you will never be able to move forward. And the most important thing is, I want you to understand that you are in a band, so please consider the mood of your teammates no matter what.
.”
In fact, it was okay if he didn't say these things. Today he was only asked by Minedao to lead the band once. The band's performance was messed up, which had no impact on him, but he felt uncomfortable not to complain.
After saying this, Shinichi Iwahashi left first to apologize to the person in charge of the club.
After he also left, the air fell into silence for a moment. Koyanagi Masaho looked at Akamatsu Haruko and then at Hirakawa Tatsuya who pulled her in, but said nothing.
The person who broke the silence was Tatsuya Hirakawa. He said to Akamatsu Haruko: "When you are standing on the stage, you should not let the music stop. However, you can continue to sing, and it is not as bad as the end..."
These were the gentlest words Akamatsu Haruko heard tonight.
She did not feel relieved after being comforted. On the contrary, she suddenly felt a heavy burden.
Two days after the messed up performance, Takenouchi Akihito asked Shinichi Iwahashi to meet outside.
"I want you to meet my sister's band." He said on the phone.
Iwahashi Shinichi really wanted to tell him, not only have I met your sister and the band she is in, but I have also witnessed a performance that was messed up because of her.
...Having said that, he still agreed to meet Takenouchi Akihito.
Iwahashi Shinichi clicked on the spot where he had agreed to meet, and entered the store. Takenouchi Akihito was already there. There was no need to go out of his way to find him, his team looked "spectacular" in the store.
Four young men and a beautiful woman were sitting at the same table. It was strange that they could not be seen at a glance.
The first person to notice him coming in was Takenouchi Akihito, who facilitated this meeting. As soon as he noticed him, he quickly waved his hand, "Iwabashi, this way!"
Iwahashi Shinichi approached and Takenouchi Akihito introduced Akamatsu Haruko to him first, "This is my sister, these guys"
Tatsuya Hirakawa smiled and said, "Takenouchi-san, we have met before."
"I've seen it before," Koyanagi Masahiroya said. "Two days ago, Iwahashi gave us a performance."
"Really?" Takenouchi Akihito's expression looked like he had been shot falsely. He smiled and blamed Iwahashi Shinichi, "You didn't tell me earlier." He relaxed again, "This will make it easier to talk."
No, it should be said that it is much harder to say. Everyone present, except probably Akihito Takenouchi, thought so.
Because two days ago, the band had just committed a rare performance accident and made a huge fool of themselves in front of Shinichi Iwahashi.
"Although you may already know him well, I still want to say a few words for Iwahashi. He is the best agent I know, so I want to introduce him to you no matter what, especially Haruko.
"
"Spare me." Iwahashi Shinichi smiled bitterly.
Takenouchi Akihito boasted quite well. However, he did not feel guilty about lying at all. Because he knew Shinichi Iwahashi, his manager, this was really the truth.
"Iwahashi does have some kind of talent." Unexpectedly, Tatsuya Hirakawa, the core figure of the band, was the first to express his affirmation of him, "He knows very well what a 'stage' is. If the band follows Iwahashi, then I have no objection.
"
"Then I don't have anything to say." Koyanagi Changfa said.
Tomohisa Kawazoe said bluntly, "The current band really lacks someone who understands this clearly." This statement was directed at Haruko Akamatsu, because she is someone who urgently needs to understand this.
Akamatsu Haruko did not express her position. She looked at Iwahashi Shinichi and remained silent, as if waiting for him to make a decision.
This was the female lead singer of the band whose ugly behavior he had seen. However, Iwahashi Shinichi remembered more than just the fact that she stopped during the performance. He also remembered that after she stopped, she quickly adjusted herself again.
Continue to finish singing.
She did not run away, although she showed a moment of timidity.
As the first official stage appearance, to achieve this level cannot be said to be a complete failure.
This makes Iwahashi Shinichi not directly judge the band as a "failure" like Mineshima did. On the contrary, he believes that the musicians are talented and Akamatsu Haruko's performance is not bad enough.
In addition, today, when facing Iwahashi Shinichi, who had witnessed her failure with his own eyes, Akamatsu Haruko showed no signs of dodge. This gave Iwahashi Shinichi enough reason to believe that Akamatsu Haruko had room for improvement.
It's good to be solid at the beginning, but being able to come back to your senses immediately after failure is also a valuable trait.
Of course, his tolerance for abnormal is also related to the fact that he is now empty-handed and can't find a better candidate to lead him.
A manager who is not yet experienced enough but can handle daily life, and a band that has just experienced restructuring and failure and needs to adjust, can be regarded as a good pot and a good lid to a certain extent.
