Backstage today, the only person who knew the true identity of the Giraffe Man was her, apart from his teammates.
On this day, she was going to record a program. On the way to the TV station, Akina Nakamori was in a good mood. She was thinking about meeting Shinichi Iwahashi later, and she was full of expectations.
In fact, even if we meet, we can't say much. At most, we can simply say hello when we pass by each other.
However, Akina Nakamori's good mood did not just come from the fact that she wanted to meet Shinichi Iwahashi, but more from the fact that when she met him backstage at the show, she had to keep the same secret as him.
Backstage, she seemed to be his "accomplice."
This simple and innocent happiness is similar to that of "a primary school student who starts looking forward to going to class the next day the day he gets a new eraser."
While driving, agent Omoto occasionally looked at Akina Nakamori through the rearview mirror.
He worked with her all day long, and recently he felt more and more that something was not right with Akina Nakamori. Of course, it wasn't something bad.
She is impeccable in her work. She was originally a perfectionist at work. Recently, she has become more enthusiastic about her work and her completion rate is excellent. All the staff she works with have affirmed her professionalism.
Outside of work, I feel pretty good too.
Omoto even felt that Akina Nakamori was more cheerful and calm than before.
This kind of cheerfulness does not refer to her attitude towards the people around her or the way she gets along with her outside of work, but the changes in her whole person.
However, on the one hand, she is cheerful and calm. On the other hand, Akina Nakamori occasionally makes people feel a little bit out of control during her breaks or when she goes home after work.
A little bit hopeful.
She has never been the kind of person who can hide her emotions well. As the agent who has been following her for the longest time since she entered the industry, Ben is very familiar with her personality.
Nakamori Akina's whole atmosphere is a little different these days. As an agent who pays close attention to her every move, these changes are all seen by Ben.
Recently, he often wondered whether Akina was in love?
Previously, this idea was just a vague guess, but recently, Omoto's feeling has become stronger and stronger. However, he thought hard and couldn't figure out who Nakamori Akina would be with if she fell in love.
In the artist industry, the people who usually come into contact with the most are the same people in the industry. When Ben was thinking about candidates, he subconsciously started to doubt the people around her first.
However, none of the male idols and singers who often appeared on stage with her could be seen. The staff at the recording studio or TV station who often met with her often could not see the slightest spark with her.
.
Could it be that he is not an industry insider?
With Nakamori Akina's personality, no one can ask her if she doesn't tell her.
Because he knew her well, it was hard for him to ask relevant questions rashly, not to mention that it was only at the stage of speculation, with no clues and no evidence, and it was even harder to rashly testify on her.
In the end, I can only quietly observe her while guessing who this possible mysterious new lover is.
Daben couldn't help but worry about her.
On the one hand, it's because I'm close to her, I've been with her for a long time as her agent, and I'm very aware of her somewhat one-sided personality, so I'm worried about her getting hurt in a relationship.
On the other hand, from an agent's perspective, even if she falls in love, Omoto hopes that the identity of Akina Nakamori's love partner will not affect her career.
However, seeing how good her mood and condition are now, regardless of other things, this love partner should be a good person... right?
I don't have a deep understanding of "love", but I always feel that a good relationship should bring people a good state.
The TV station is right in front of you.
Naturally, Akina Nakamori had no idea what the big manager was thinking.
Arriving at Fuji TV, Omoto took Akina Nakamori, followed by a small assistant carrying costumes and a dedicated makeup artist. The group entered the elevator and went to the floor where "Night Recording Studio" is located.
.
For such a hugely expensive music program, it is not only the production team that has to burn money, but also the singers who have to carefully prepare costumes to match the performance stage.
…
The performance stage prepared by "Night Blast Recording Studio" is really a blessing. In order to match the stage arranged by the program team, the agency carefully purchased the performance costumes. The confusing aesthetic singing costumes designed by Miwa-chan herself were not used.
use.
Even so, because the song costumes were decided with the nods of the three of them - mainly Miwa-chan - it still had a slight circus style, but at least it was a more formal circus.
However, now, they have decided to do a circus tour, obviously to regard this circus style as the band's characteristic.
Therefore, everyone from the staff of the office to Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamura-san has acquiesced in this fact. Even when the production of tour costumes begins, Miwa-chan’s opinions will be listened to.
That's probably what it means to break a pot and break a bucket... I'm just kidding.
Compared with the three of them, who are not very well-dressed, Miho Nakayama, who is wearing a fluttering skirt that is quite orthodox idol style, looks quite like a star.
In the TV series Yuejiu, she is a somewhat cute female college student. But leaving the setting of the TV series and appearing here as "Idol Nakayama Miho", she is indeed quite exquisite.
However, Miho Nakayama, who has such a star-like air, is quite interested in this new band that looks unreliable. After exchanging pleasantries, she took the initiative to tell them that she really likes the band's new album.
"In the new album, my favorite song is "Starry Sky Reflecting the Sea" (The Sea Reflecting the Starry Sky)," Miho Nakayama said.
The three members of the band thanked her, and Miwa-chan took the initiative to tell her, "We will sing this song on the show today."
Hearing what she said, Nakayama Miho showed an expectant expression.
An idol who is less than 20 years old, no matter how well-mannered and sophisticated she is, still shows her age-appropriate moments. Miho Nakayama obviously really likes the band's songs.
But it is this natural expression that makes her look lively and lovely. She is both an idol and a living person.
Shin Iwahashi wore a condom and liked no one, so Nakamura brother became the main social person of the band backstage. He took the initiative to propose to Nakayama Miho that he would give her the band's album later.
Miho Nakayama readily agreed, thanked the band, and said that she also brought the new album she had released previously.
During the promotion period, when singers go to make announcements, their managers often carry a dozen new albums with them, ready to give them away at any time. On such occasions, after the singers finish speaking in a few words, the managers who follow them will help keep it in mind and wait.
When we go back later, we will give each other albums.
After a few polite chats, Nakayama Miho took the initiative to talk to Giraffe Man, "I really like the idea of Giraffe Man in the band."
I don’t know if this was a polite statement or a sincere one...but no matter what, Iwahashi Shinichi thanked her.
Having said that, if Miho Nakayama really likes the setting of the giraffe man, then the person who really made the contribution should be the ingenious Miwa-chan - she must be so proud of it.
In short, the responsibility for wearing the headgear belongs to Shinichi Iwahashi, and the credit for the popularity belongs to Miwa-chan. Although this credit is really not worth fighting for.
People were coming and going in the corridor, and Nakayama Miho suddenly said "Hey", "It's Akina-san."
The tone and expression were obviously different from when he came over to greet the band just now. Shinichi Iwahashi looked at this reaction, and for a moment he thought of the appearance of Nakamura-san when he met the Southern Star on the show.
From the looks of it, Miho Nakayama is a fan of Topo Star.
This is not surprising either.
When Miho Nakayama debuted, it happened to be the peak period of Akina Nakamori. Japanese idols generally debut early. Sometimes, even though they are only a few years apart in age, they still deserve to be said, "I grew up listening to your songs."
Nakayama Miho is five years younger than Nakamori Akina. When she was in junior high school, Nakamori Akina had already become popular. Boys and girls of the same age talked about various topics in school, and star chasing was definitely not missing.
It’s normal to become a fan of Akina Nakamori.
Iwahashi Shin moved his eyes away from Nakayama Miho's face, and followed her towards Nakamori Akina, who was coming here. The advantage of wearing a hood is that you can have no worries, and you don't have to worry about being discovered, and you can look at whoever you want.
Even so, when Nakamori Akina looked over and her eyes lingered on his side, Iwahashi Shinichi still felt like he had been discovered.
I want you to guess my current expression.
Iwahashi Shinichi came up with this idea a little unreasonably. But at the same time, the eyes that stayed on his side moved away. Nakamori Akina smiled and greeted Nakayama Miho, and then said hello to the three members of the band.
…
The two have had the experience of sharing the same stage several times before, but this is the first time they have participated in the same program since they started dating.
Ordinarily, there have been cases where we met backstage when we knew our identities. However, as the relationship has changed, it still feels different to meet on such an occasion again.
Akina Nakamori knew who the Giraffe Man was, but no one else backstage knew.
Two of Shinichi Iwahashi's teammates knew who he was, but they didn't know that she actually knew it too.
When Nakamori Akina thought about this incident, she felt it was interesting, as if she was working with Shinichi Iwahashi, as his accomplice, and keeping two secrets with him at the same time.
She found a subtle pleasure in this somewhat mischievous thing.
Backstage, Akina Nakamori saw the giraffe man at a glance. No matter what the occasion, he was undoubtedly the most conspicuous one. However, her eyes paused for a moment at Shinichi Iwahashi and then moved away.
When greeting the three members of the band, Akina Nakamori couldn't help but look at Miwa Yoshida while talking.
For Miwa-chan, Akina Nakamori is a "familiar stranger". Familiar because she is so popular and everyone in Japan knows her name. Strange because she has never been with her before.
intersection.
But for Akina Nakamori, Miwa Yoshida is also such a "familiar stranger".
Shinichi Iwahashi sent her every single and album of his band. She listened to every song by Miwa Yoshida and wrote down her thoughts on the lyrics and music she wrote in a letter and sent it to Shinichi Iwahashi.
She knew that Miwa Yoshida was an important teammate and friend of Shinichi Iwahashi. It was because of meeting Miwa Yoshida that Shinichi Iwahashi decided to enter the entertainment industry.
In fact, the reason why she made up her mind to take a step closer to Shinichi Iwahashi was because of Miwa Yoshida.
Nakamori Akina thought many times in her mind about what kind of girl Yoshida Miwa was and how she viewed Iwahashi Shinichi.
However, although I have thought about so many things in my heart, I have only rarely had the opportunity to talk face to face.
Even if we meet face to face now, we can only exchange a few pleasantries, that's all.
Nakamori Akina looked at Yoshida Miwa, and Miwa-chan was also generous. While accepting her gaze, she also reflected her own gaze back to her.
Standing face to face, Yoshida Miwa is surrounded by the giraffe man.
The two of them stood quite close...
Miwa-chan looked cheerful and could not guess that Akina Nakamori looked at her because she was very curious about her. However, she felt that Akina Nakamori's eyes were not malicious -
To be honest, it sounds like a simple curiosity.
But the look Yoshida Miwa gave back to Nakamori Akina was neither curious nor uncomfortable. It was quite pure...pure and innocent, and contained a little kindness.
She still had a smile on her face.
Growing up in a harmonious family with plenty of laughter and laughter, and being pampered by her family, Yoshida Miwa has never lacked love since she was a child. There is a "loved" light in her body that attracts others to come closer to her.
.
Akina Nakamori exchanged glances with her, and for a moment, she suddenly envied Miwa Yoshida.
This "confrontation" of eyes actually only lasted a few seconds.
The backstage is so busy that we can't afford to have so many people stop here and do nothing.
Dreams e True still has to go to rehearsal, so it’s not good to delay it any longer. After greetings, the three of them said goodbye to Akina Nakamori and Miho Nakayama and walked to the studio.
Akina Nakamori watched the backs of the three of them, with Miwa Yoshida walking in front and her two teammates a little behind. Although they were not walking side by side, it did not prevent her from turning around to say something to Shinichi Iwahashi from time to time.
You can tell from one glance that the relationship between the band members is good.
Shinichi Iwahashi was wearing a hood, and Akina Nakamori couldn't help but wonder what his expression was now.
I'm watching you from behind...
She quietly poked the ignorant giraffe man in the back with her eyes.
However, with some thoughts in her heart, Nakamori Akina's eyes fell on Yoshida Miwa, and she remembered the light she had just felt in her body, the kind of light that is used to being loved only by people who grew up being pampered.
Facing Miwa Yoshida like this, she couldn't control it and felt a sense of inferiority in her heart.
"I want to go to the rehearsal of Dreams e True."
At this time, she heard Miho Nakayama standing next to her say this.
