It was almost time to set off. Kamai Sachiko looked at her watch and said, "It seems we're almost leaving."
She is obviously a singer, but her sense of time is so strong that she seems to be the staff member responsible for the singer.
Akamatsu Haruko kept paying attention to the time. After listening to her words, she responded, "Yes." She put down the library she was reading.
We went on a business trip together, and the two girls were placed in the same room.
The two of them had already hit it off, and Akamatsu Haruko was assigned to take charge of Kamaike Sachiko by Iwahashi Shinichi, so they became even more familiar with each other.
After getting acquainted with her, Kamai Sachiko was more lively and outgoing than the shy and quiet person she first impressed. On the contrary, Akamatsu Haruko was pretty much the same as before.
Although the person in charge of Sachiko Kamaike's work is Haruko Akamatsu, in terms of personal interactions, it seems that she always follows Sachiko's pace and accepts Sachiko's initiative.
Even so, this kind of following is not just obedience without any opinion.
Kamatsu Sachiko secretly felt in her heart that it was not so much that Akamatsu Haruko was following her rhythm, but rather that she had Akamatsu Haruko's tacit approval. Whether she wanted to follow her or not, the initiative actually rested in Akamatsu Haruko's hands.
When getting along with Akamatsu Haruko, Kamaike Sachiko occasionally had a strange association. She felt that Akamatsu Haruko's calm look was a bit like Iwahashi Shinichi.
Kamaike Sachiko and Iwahashi Shinichi didn't meet many times, but in her impression, Iwahashi Shinichi seemed to be easy to talk to, but in fact he had a plan in mind, and he always kept the rhythm calmly.
In his own hands, if he is not careful, he will lead him into the "trap" he has set.
Is this what is called employees acting like bosses?
However, after the livehouse performance, Akamatsu Haruko was responsible for summarizing her performance, pointing out the advantages and disadvantages, and putting forward her own opinions. According to her, this well-organized process was taught by Shinichi Iwahashi.
of.
Akamatsu Haruko's career as an agent was completely inspired by Iwahashi Shinichi.
The leader of the band, Tatsuya Hirakawa, joked that Akamatsu Haruko was Iwahashi-san's "eldest disciple".
Sachiko Kamai thought this statement was appropriate and interesting.
"Iwahashi-san wants to go to the show tonight, right?"
Thinking of Shinichi Iwahashi, Kamachi Sachiko couldn't help but ask.
Akamatsu Haruko replied "Yes", thought for a while, and based on her understanding of the relationship between the boss and the boss's former boss, she added: "Watanabe-san will probably go too."
"I'm starting to get a little nervous now."
Kamaike Sachiko took a deep breath, feeling a bit of a sense of urgency waiting for Shinichi Iwahashi to come for review.
She had great respect for Shinichi Iwahashi who gave her this opportunity. Even though the age difference between the two of them was less than a year, facing him was like facing a teacher.
Akamatsu Haruko saw Kamachi Sachiko's little moves, smiled softly, and encouraged: "Cheer up, Sachiko."
At this time, a staff member from the same group came to call them.
…
Kamai Sachiko was nervous about tonight's performance, but not nervous about the upcoming visit.
In this kind of occasion, with the boss leading the way, there is no need for the singer to express himself. He only needs to say hello honestly when he is introduced to the producer.
The process of visiting TV stations is relatively fixed. Previously, Zard and the four of them were taken to see many advertisers, as well as the heads of TV stations in the Tokyo area. They were already familiar with the routine of bowing and announcing their names when meeting people.
process.
After meeting the producer Igarashi, Shinichi Iwahashi and Wanyumi Watanabe greeted him, introduced the band to him, and then presented the band's debut single.
When the single was being pressed, there were regular discs sold in the market, rental discs for record rental stores, and promotional discs that were carried around for promotion to producers like now.
Now it is a promotional disk for the producer Igarashi, it is not for sale.
Producer Igarashi is about forty years old, with a short build and a shriveled face that looks like it has been yellowed by cigarette smoke. He looks a little apologetic, but he is quite talkative and has a good personality.
His first impression of Sachiko Kamaike, the lead singer of the band, was quite good. After she said hello, he straightened up and praised: "Sang, the lead singer, is really refreshing."
The word refreshing is quite accurate.
Being praised by producer Igarashi, Kamaike Sachiko showed a reserved expression.
One advantage of Sachiko Kamaiike is that when she shows any emotion, people don't think she is pretending, but believe that she is really so.
This trait is actually very endearing and makes people feel her sincerity.
Maybe you didn't look at her differently when you first met her, but even so, you will leave a good first impression. Kamai Sachiko is such a girl.
Producer Igarashi looked at the record he received and asked, "Is it a rock band?"
"It's poprock." The person who answered was Iwahashi Shinichi. "It's the kind of rock music that you can sing in karaoke."
"That's it." Producer Igarashi nodded.
The band members sat in a row next to them, and Iwahashi Shinichi and Watanabe Manyumi discussed with the producer Igarashi. The band members could safely install the wooden stakes, but Kamaike Sachiko still had to cheer up.
Whether you want to be the lead singer or not, you often have to take on the important task of being the spokesman for the team.
However, producer Igarashi’s first impression of Sachiko Kamaike was good, which was a good start.
Although Masaki Yoshida had communicated with him in advance, the son-in-law of Watanabe Productions greeted him in advance, and one of the people who came to visit was the second lady of Watanabe Productions. Watanabe Productions was dispatched, and he did not look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face.
, if you want to promote it on Kansai TV, you will definitely be given the opportunity to appear on TV.
However, what kind of opportunity is given, whether it is to avoid losing face or whether it is sincerely believing that the band is worthy of promotion, before that, one must first see the standard of the band and how it makes him feel.
Producer Igarashi went to remove the record sleeve, and Shin Iwahashi took out the prepared portable CD player and headphones.
This time the band’s debut single is on an 8cm format disc.
Last year, this new type of record developed by Sony was put into use.
Its characteristic is that compared with the traditional 12cm record, it is a lot smaller, and the CD box has also "slimmed down", changing from a square to a slim rectangle.
In the same year that it was launched, Johnny's band Mendohu Group used this new thing in the release of their debut single. Riding on the idol's popularity, their debut single sold like crazy last year.
And with the huge sales of the male Dou Hu group's debut single, the charm and broad prospects of this new record have also been revealed to the public and the record industry.
