On this day, Mineda paged Iwahashi Shinichi, saying that he had something to do and wanted to meet him.
Since Iwahashi Shinichi joined Watanabe Productions and "came out" from the underground music circle, he has had fewer opportunities to meet Mineshima.
Even so, whether it was the production of Women's Rock Festival or the production of Band Heaven, Shinichi Iwahashi had received assistance from Mineshima during the early preparations, and he helped promote it in the underground music circle.
Although the two of them are not close friends, they appreciate each other and help each other whenever they need help.
In the evening, Shinichi Iwahashi went to the appointment on time to listen to what Minedao had to say.
We met, had a drink, and exchanged a few words. When Mineshima opened his mouth, he said that Tomohisa Kawazoe had come to him for help and asked him to introduce another band that needed musicians.
Fengdao's words were a bit ambiguous, "He wanted me to help introduce him and join some other band."
With that said, one can't guess whether Kawazoe Tomohisa plans to quit Abnormal and find another career, or whether he plans to work part-time in another band.
Mineshima didn't mean to not speak clearly, but Kawazoe Tomohisa's intention wasn't clear enough either.
He didn't know the internal situation of Genzo, and he didn't know how Shinichi Iwahashi planned to arrange Abnormal. He would tell Shinichi Iwahashi out of a mentality of making it clear in advance.
Shinichi Iwahashi regards Minedao as the person who led him on this path, and for Minedao, a nightclub waiter who was accidentally approached by Mimi Club to help with dancing, he suddenly made up his mind to do it without any experience.
Entering this industry, not only have you not been beaten by reality, but you have also done well. This kind of talent is really eye-catching.
Precisely because he was optimistic about him and believed in his talents, Mineshima felt that he should at least let Iwahashi Shinichi know about such a thing. Not only so that he would not be caught in the middle later and it would be difficult to behave, but also for Kawazoe Tomohisa.
After telling this incident, Mineshima observed Iwahashi Shinichi's reaction and saw that he was very calm and half relieved. From this look, Iwahashi Shinichi either knew about it or had a countermeasure.
…
For Shinichi Iwahashi, it would be better to say that this was something that was expected.
After Haruko Akamatsu decided to quit the band, Abnormal fell into a virtual hiatus. The three members did their own things. They used to perform on stage together, but now it is rare for them to get together.
This state has been going on for a year now, and it is normal for people's hearts to fluctuate. It is like a firecracker with a long letter. Although you don't know when it will explode, it will explode one day unless a little Belgian hero comes.
Destroy it.
Among the Abnormal team, the leader Tatsuya Hirakawa is steady and has his own ideas about the general direction of the band. Tomohisa Kawazoe is full of talent. In Iwahashi Shinichi's view, his talent in music is better than that of Tatsuya Hirakawa.
Also a bargain.
However, Kawazoe Tomohisa is not the kind of musician who is content to stay behind the scenes to provide music and serve as a producer. He has always longed to be on stage. After the band's activities stopped, he was also the person who actively became a support musician.
Now, when I heard this from Fengdao, it was better to say it was sooner or later than suddenly.
While sighing that "it finally happened", another thought in Shinichi Iwahashi's mind was, why did Kawazoe Tomohiro have to endure it for so long, why would he want to move now?
Iwahashi Shinichi remained calm and did not delve into the topic. Instead, he said: "Mineshima-san, it seems that your vision is very accurate."
In the beginning, it was because Akamatsu Haruko wanted to join the band that Mineshima gave up Abnormal, and the band came into the hands of Shinichi Iwahashi. Looking at the subsequent development of the band, it is true as Mineshima said, Akamatsu Haruko almost ruined the band
.
Now, Kawazoe Tomohisa went back to find Mineshima, and he probably remembered the reason for Mineshima's original opposition.
Fengdao knew what he was talking about and smiled: "To be honest, I am really looking forward to how you will bring the abnormal back to life."
If this were said to others, or told to others, it might seem like schadenfreude, but when Mineshima said this to Shinichi Iwahashi, he sincerely believed that Shinichi Iwahashi had such abilities.
In the underground music circle, Mineshima earns commissions by discovering suitable bands and then selling them to record companies. Eyesight is the skill of making a living. He thinks he has a good eye. However, Shinichi Iwahashi has something he doesn't have.
.
That is the ability to solve problems and turn the impossible into the possible.
"Resurrection from the dead." Iwahashi Shinichi made Mineshima laugh at this description.
After thinking about it, I decided to reveal to him, "I am planning a record company here."
"Record company?" Fengdao was really shocked this time.
From the production company to the record company, we knew he had talent, but was it too incredible? However, I was surprised, and felt that it was not surprising that he would reach this point with everything he had done since he entered the industry.
"When the time comes, I'm going to reorganize Abnormal and let the band debut from here."
When Iwahashi Shinichi said this, Mineshima understood why he had no reaction when he heard about Kawazoe Tomohisa. This was all planned.
However, Mineshima thought of one thing, "Are you not going to let Abnormal join Band Heaven?"
"If I join Band Heaven, I won't get anything." Shinichi Iwahashi said straightforwardly.
Even if there were no contract issues with Kamai Sachiko, for him, letting Abnormal join Band Heaven would be equivalent to handing over his trump card.
To gain a foothold in the industry, he must have a work that is completely marked with his mark, and Abnormal is this work. Setting up a record company means that he has to grab a piece of the band trend that he has personally ignited.
"I see."
Mineshima smiled and said, "I really want Kawazoe to hear what I just said."
"There's always a time to tell him." Shinichi Iwahashi didn't take it seriously.
Now that the words have been spoken, Shinichi Iwahashi took advantage of the situation and invited Mineshima, "The record company is newly established and needs a lot of manpower. Do you want Mineshima-san to come too?"
"come together?"
Iwahashi Shin nodded, "Yes, the production is excellent and the sales are excellent."
Faced with Iwahashi Shinichi's invitation, Mineshima was not immediately incited, but hesitated. Now he is cooperating with all the record companies in the industry. If he accepts the invitation, he will only focus on this one in the future.
At that time, the work form and work content will have changed, and it can even be said that the future will be suppressed.
Mineshima promised that Shinichi Iwahashi would not be surprised, and the hesitation was expected of him. However, once the words were spoken, the thoughts were conveyed. As for the answer, there was no rush at this moment.
Shinichi Iwahashi picked up his wine glass as if nothing had happened.
It was a rare meeting, so the two of them put the matter aside for the time being, and chatted every now and then. Mineshima told Shinichi Iwahashi about the underground music circle, some of which he wanted to let him know about the trends, and some of which were just for fun.
Come and make a drinking joke.
"Recently, many underground musicians have been sucked away by the gaming and animation industries," Mineshima said.
