Nakamori Akina was like an unreasonable commander, giving him orders.
"Closer?"
Iwahashi Shinichi looked at her confident face, and it was a bit funny to hear her incoherent words. However, he still listened to her words, bent down, and pressed his forehead against hers.
Forehead to forehead, face to face. The wind was cold and cold in the winter night. Because of this, the breath that blew over fell on the face, making it especially hot.
This breath, this heat, and the mischievous curve of the mouth that rises after giving orders.
Nakamori Akina suddenly tilted her head and put her cheek against Iwahashi Shinichi's face.
It was a winter night outside on the road, and the cold wind made both of their faces feel cold. However, after sticking together, their cold cheeks gradually warmed up after a while.
Their faces were close to each other, and Nakamori Akina's breath blew into his ears, tickling him.
"Warm the other side too..." Nakamori Akina muttered, and pressed her other cheek against Iwahashi Shinichi's other side.
In fact, as soon as they separate, her cheeks will become cold again. But she doesn't feel that she is doing something in vain at all. Rather, it is in this "futility" that she finds the joy of acting coquettishly.
"It's like I'm deliberately teasing people." Shinichi Iwahashi suppressed his laughter and complained about her.
"What?" Nakamori Akina deliberately pretended to be stupid.
As soon as he spoke, the warm breath fell on his ears again.
This breath, this heat, and the childish whispers and mischievous cunning.
Iwahashi Shinichi suddenly tilted his head, his cheek leaving hers. But he quickly moved closer and pressed his lips against hers.
Akina Nakamori closed her eyes.
The cold cheeks blown by the wind, and the warm and moist lips that are close to each other.
After they separated, she grabbed Iwahashi Shinichi's arm and pressed her cheek against his, "I didn't do this because I wanted to tease you..."
She deliberately imitated Iwahashi Shinichi's words.
"What's that for?"
Iwahashi Shinichi asked knowingly.
Nakamori Akina laughed when he asked her question. She knew in her heart that he did it on purpose, but the more she did it, the happier she became... Iwahashi Shinichi knew the answer to her question, which meant that he had always known her thoughts.
"It's because I like you." She gently rubbed his face like a cat.
Nakamori Akina said the answer, immediately left Iwahashi Shinichi's arms, took a step back, and looked at him with a smile.
"It's getting late, it's time to go back."
She said, taking a step towards Shinichi Iwahashi.
…
The two of them returned the same way.
Walking through the wall of the mansion, stepping on the dark shadows cast by the trees underfoot. Hearing a small sound, Akina Nakamori stopped and looked around.
Iwahashi Shinichi also accompanied her as she looked around, and a thought came to his mind. Could it be that a reporter was following him?
Akina Nakamori said "Ah" and raised her head, "It came from the branches."
"Really."
Iwahashi Shinichi responded and also looked up.
Nakamori Akina gave an affirmative answer, thought of something, and laughed, "I thought just now that I was discovered by Sangui, a reporter from the weekly magazine."
Iwahashi Shinichi also smiled, "I thought so just now."
However, he was not sensitive enough to think of the paparazzi just because of the slightest noise. He was reminded by her reaction. When it came to dealing with the paparazzi, he could not catch up with Taopusida.
Things came together and the two of them laughed together.
"If I am really photographed, then I will experience the feeling of being in the headlines of last week's magazine."
Iwahashi Shinichi was joking with her, but he was telling the truth. After all, the person photographed with him was a star, and no matter which weekly magazine photographed him, he would be treated as a headliner.
"Yukiko will definitely be shocked when she reads the news."
"Maybe they'll call right away to ask what's going on, and maybe they won't pay attention to us for a while." Iwahashi Shinichi accompanied her to think.
"At that time," Nakamori Akina said, "I will have to apologize to Yukiko properly."
"Of course." Iwahashi Shinichi agreed.
Not only do I need to apologize, but I also need to thank her. Akina Nakamori thought quietly to herself.
Nakamori Akina was thinking about Okada Yukiko's reaction, but Iwahashi Shinichi was thinking about the possible reaction from her office, "When the time comes, your Kenichiro-san may come to the door in person."
He was half-joking.
"Shinichi-kun and Kenichiro-san seem to be very familiar with each other."
Akina Nakamori remembered that she had met Shinichi Iwahashi at a New Year's reception held by the office, and the introducer at that time was Kenichiro Nozaki.
"Kenichiro-san is in the production team of Band Tenkuni." Shinichi Iwahashi said.
But they met earlier, at a reception that Watanabe Wanyumi took him to at Atami.
If Wanyumi Watanabe and Mr. Nozaki hadn't been juniors in college, they wouldn't have had the chance to send the band Heaven's plan to Kenyin.
If Band Paradise had not been produced, there would be no friendship with Mr. Nozaki, and he would not have been able to be so thorough during the Grand Prize incident.
The dice of life are spinning around, but I never thought that the numbers would come out like this.
"Yes."
Akina Nakamori remembered it after he reminded her. She told Shinichi Iwahashi, "I will also set up the video recorder in advance to record Band Paradise and watch it when I have time."
"Do you like Band Tenkuni so much?" Shinichi Iwahashi asked.
She nodded, "You can often see amazing bands on the show. Of course, there are also weird performances that make people wonder, 'What are they doing~'. It's very interesting."
"And the producer is Shinichi-kun. Every time I hear Ken-san Yoshida making fun of you during his reviews, I'm very happy."
According to this, she would go out of her way to watch the TV series Yue Jiu. Even if she had a lot of things to complain about, she would still watch it until the end. This is probably because the theme song of the TV series was sung by a band produced by Shinichi Iwahashi.
"Thanks to Yoshida-san, I seem to have been nicknamed 'Iwahashi-kun off-screen'." Iwahashi Shinichi himself felt a bit bitter when he mentioned this uncool and unbranded nickname.
Well, my girlfriend sprinkled a little salt on the wound.
However, although Akina Nakamori likes to watch Ken Yoshida make fun of him, Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe are already ready to quit the show.
After returning from Osaka, the two of them followed their previous agreement. Shinichi Iwahashi would not show up, and Watanabe Manyumi was responsible for reconciling with Ikuo Subo and sending this program out as a sign of sincerity, while he was responsible for preparing a proposal for a new program.
One is responsible for solving threats externally, and the other is responsible for preparing new projects internally, and they both believe that the show will not last long. The fate of the show Band Paradise has long been decided secretly.
After weighing the pros and cons, Iwahashi Shinichi and Watanabe Manyumi decisively chose to give up Band Paradise.
Now, seeing how much Akina Nakamori likes this show as a viewer and having close contact with the audience, Shinichi Iwahashi truly feels "a pity" that he will personally destroy Band Paradise.
"but,"
Nakamori Akina suddenly brought the topic back, "If it's true that he was photographed by reporters and made Shinichi-kun hit the headlines, if that's true, I'd be sorry."
After she finished speaking, she made a naughty expression at Shinichi Iwahashi.
But the exaggerated reaction seemed to be concealing some uneasiness.
Just now, when she mistook the sound of tree branches for someone following her, Akina Nakamori was really worried. Although she and Shinichi Iwahashi joked about it, they didn't let go.
Although Shinichi Iwahashi wears a vest and plays the role of a giraffe in front of the stage, his main identity is that of a man in black behind the scenes. It is also his identity as a producer that makes him famous in the industry. For those behind the scenes, exposure is quite redundant.
Not only is it redundant, but it will also be affected in turn because the romantic partner is a Taoist star.
Shinichi Iwahashi was quite ambitious, "Not everyone has the opportunity to make headlines... Besides, it can even scare Yukiko." He sensed Akina Nakamori's uneasiness and added in a lively tone.
When she thought about being photographed, her first reaction was to apologize to him. Shinichi Iwahashi knew exactly what Nakamori Akina was thinking.
She didn't care about his existence being known, but was worried that he would be hurt because of her.
Such thoughtfulness moved Shinichi Iwahashi.
But really speaking, once a relationship with a small producer is exposed, it will not be of any benefit to Akina Nakamori. There is a high probability that she will gain a lot of nothing, as well as fans. How will the company view it?
She also brought real troubles.
Although he never said it, Iwahashi Shinichi had the consciousness to protect her. He set the meeting place in the office and ran to a wealthy residential area to block the road.
However, the day came when he was actually photographed. Since he was going to fall in love with a Taopusta, he was naturally prepared to be followed by paparazzi and have his name, photo and biography published in magazines.
In addition, you have to endure possible criticism and accept the reality that it will be regarded as a "love of bad character" - in popular terms, "soft rice is really delicious".
After all, Akina Nakamori is a true Tao Pu star, who has already booked something that will become a big deal, while he is just a young producer with a certain reputation.
But it does smell good...
Of course, I am talking about the smell of perfume on her body today.
Akina Nakamori laughed at his words - but rather than being funny about the joke, it was more because the open-minded attitude conveyed in his words made her feel a lot more relaxed, so she laughed.
Shinichi Iwahashi doesn't care about being photographed by a weekly magazine, nor does he regard being exposed as a trouble.
This kind of attitude made Nakamori Akina feel confident.
"I want to protect Shinichi-kun..."
However, she only thought about it in her heart and was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
Nakamori Akina couldn't say anything to Shinichi Iwahashi, who had been helping her, that she wanted to protect him. What's more, wasn't the criticism he might face brought by her?
She doesn't want Shinichi Iwahashi to become the focus of media gossip and be slandered and slandered because of her relationship with her. However, if one day he is actually photographed, she will admit it openly.
Although she did not discuss this topic in depth, Nakamori Akina made up her mind first.
From the perspective of protecting each other, the two people who decided to date were quite willing to risk their lives.
…
After the ratings of the Yuejiu TV series came out, Fuji TV also sent a copy to the record company. Even if they are only responsible for singing the theme song, they can be regarded as a serious TV series relationship party.
After all, on the cover of zard's debut single, under the title song, there is a sentence like "The theme song of Fuji TV drama "Falling in Love with Your Eyes"".
The ratings of the first episode were 19.8, which was a good start even for a TV show during the showtime period. Nakayama Miho herself is currently popular and has always had good popularity with the audience. Among the cast members who participated in the show is Maeda Koyo
super popular idol.
In addition, Momoko Kikuchi's "big transformation" in the TV series also became a topic and was speculated before the broadcast.
Momoko Kikuchi, who was very popular as a purist in her peak period, has a high level of national recognition, and her contribution to this TV series is as topical as Miho Nakayama and Kohiro Maeda's "popular male and female idols playing against each other" gimmick.
The high ratings of the TV series mean that more viewers have heard the theme song sung by zard.
Along with the fax of the ratings, there are also phone calls from viewers compiled by the TV station after the TV series was broadcast.
"The one who gets asked the most is Kikuchi Momoko-san."
Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe divided the received items into two, then exchanged the information in their hands with each other, and exchanged relevant opinions.
Watanabe Manyumi said, "The character played by Kikuchi Moko-san in the TV series seems to be quite impactful because it is completely opposite to the traditional purist line, so the audience is very concerned about it."
"However, although the topic is enough, the evaluation of her performance is quite polarized. It is not easy to transform." Watanabe Wanyumi thought of something and casually mentioned: "Kikuchi-san formed a band, does Shinichi-kun know about it?"
"
"It seems like it's called 'rum' or something like that?" Shinichi Iwahashi had vaguely heard of it.
Watanabe Manyumi corrected him, "It's called 'la·mu—'."
"Okay, la·mu——." Iwahashi Shin corrected his mistake as soon as he realized it, and repeated it like a student.
However, even a producer like him, who deals with bands all day long, can't remember the name of the band. Needless to say, he knows that "the sales volume is probably not very good."
"It should be said that it was a disastrous defeat."
Watanabe Manyumi told him, "I released a few singles. The first one was better, but after that it was not popular. Now the band has actually stopped activities, and the musicians have gone their own way."
"Well."
"After the failure of transitioning into a band, Kikuchi-san's agency seemed to regard this Yuejiu as a last-ditch battle."
"No wonder I took on such a contrasting role."
As Iwahashi Shinichi said this, he thought about the plot and the after-viewing experience that Akina Nakamori relayed to him, and he was a little worried. Don't try too hard this time and the result will be unflattering.
"La·mu—How about putting it aside first." He shook the portion in his hand.
