563. Nakamori Pickled Cabbage

It is true that Miho Nakayama said that she likes Dreams Come True. She also likes the setting of a giraffe man in the band. This is not a polite statement.

Last year, when she was backstage at the Kohaku Song Concert, Nakayama Miho actually wanted to take a photo with the giraffe man, but it was the first time she was selected for Kohaku. She was nervous backstage and felt it would be too rude to go there rashly.

Nakayama Miho's main job is acting and she also sings part-time. Things like singing skills have nothing to do with her.

Because of this, she had a simple respect for professional singers and could not regard the giraffe man as a mascot for a group photo in a scenic spot. Therefore, she only thought about the photo in her heart.

However, the song that is the first hit of the band's new album and gets the most attention is "Future Vision II", and other songs have much less chance of being sung on TV shows.

It was rare to share the stage with Dreams Come True, and she sang her favorite song this time, so Miho Nakayama wanted to go and see it.

She was going to watch the band rehearsal and say goodbye to Akina Nakamori.

Unexpectedly, Akina Nakamori also went with her, "I heard that the scene of Dreams Come True was very exciting."

Nakayama Miho was a little surprised, but more of a joy to be walking with her idol, "Yes."

Although Dreams Come True has just debuted, it is quite famous in the industry for its strong live performance ability.

On one side, the two idols stood together for Dreams Come True. On the other side, manager Omoto reminded him, "Akina-chan, it's time to get ready."

Unlike Miho Nakayama, who had already changed into stage clothes and was waiting for the show, Akina Nakamori, who had just arrived at the TV station, was still without makeup.



On the other side, the three people standing on the stage are confirming their positions under the instructions of the staff, remembering the position of the camera under the stage. They can accurately capture which camera is filming, and send wink to the camera, doing

For a singer to achieve this, both talent and hard work are indispensable.

Miwa-chan, who was the absolute center, worked hard to write down everything that needed to be remembered. The easiest thing was for Shinichi Iwahashi, who did not show his face, as long as he stood in front of the electronic keyboard prepared for him.

Two teammates who could move freely on the stage came to him to confirm the performance details with him.

Everything was ready, Miwa-chan returned to the middle of the stage, and Brother Nakamura took the bass handed over by the staff. Brother Nakamura used a six-string bass, which was so heavy that he had no friends. He would never carry it on his back when he was not performing, so as not to hurt his shoulders.

The waist is broken at an early age.

Bass sounds good only when it is heavy, so bass players really need to take care of it.

The staff in the audience raised the board, and Shinichi Iwahashi sent the "start" signal.

The song "Starry Sky Reflecting the Sea" (The Sea Reflecting the Starry Sky) was the first live performance in the studio tonight. I had only sung it in the studio before.

Of course, before coming to the rehearsal, after deciding to sing this song, Shinichi Iwahashi and Brother Nakamura rearranged the song for live performance and practiced it in the company's rehearsal room.

The strength of the band is absolutely reassuring. As soon as the rehearsal started, they got into the groove immediately.

all the best.

Shin Iwahashi accompanies and contributes harmonies while looking around the studio. The advantage of wearing a hood is that he doesn't have to control his expression, so he can let himself go and look wherever he wants.

Then, I saw Miho Nakayama and Akina Nakamori standing outside.

The two people stood outside the studio, looking at the stage.

Nakamori Akina's eyes occasionally fell on Yoshida Miwa, who was playing freely on the stage, and after looking around, she fell on the giraffe man who was playing the piano.

Dreams Come True When she was still in the band Tianguo, Nakamori Akina had an understanding of the band's strength. Now that she sees it in person, her understanding of this matter is even deeper.

When Miwa Yoshida stood on the stage and started singing, her whole body exuded a kind of joy. Just by looking at it, you can realize the joy that "singing" brings to her.

For Miwa Yoshida, it seems that the only reason to become a singer is because of "happiness".

When Nakamori Akina watched Yoshida Miwa sing, she seemed to feel the mood of Iwahashi Shinichi when he made up his mind for her. Such Yoshida Miwa has an innocence that makes people want to get close to her and like her.

She tried to understand Iwahashi Shinichi's feelings for Yoshida Mika, but she couldn't control her envy of Yoshida Mika. Compared with her clumsy self, Yoshida Miwa seemed to have a natural aura of being loved.

So she looked away and looked at the giraffe man.

Shinichi Iwahashi was fearless even though he had a hood on his head. When he noticed Akina Nakamori looking towards him, he also turned towards the direction where she was standing.

Nakamori Akina noticed that Iwahashi Shinichi looked over here from time to time, and immediately understood that he had discovered him. With the hood blocking it, he could look over without any scruples, but through the hood, he couldn't see his expression. Everything was completely hidden.

Rely on guesswork.

However, knowing that he was looking over on purpose, even though she couldn't see his face, was enough to make Akina Nakamori feel better. Unable to see Shinichi Iwahashi's face, she recalled his usual appearance in her mind, and couldn't help but reveal a little smile.

smile.

However, the direction she was standing in was also the direction Nakayama Miho was standing.

"It seems that Mr. Giraffe discovered that we were watching."

Miho Nakayama looked like a good girl, enjoying the band's rehearsal. When she found out about this, she was a little embarrassed, and while talking, she went to see Akina Nakamori.

As a result, I saw Akina Nakamori looking at the Giraffe Man with a smile on her face.

"We are too close." Nakamori Akina looked away and looked at Nakayama Miho.

"That's true." Nakayama Miho also smiled, "It would be strange not to be discovered if we stand so close."

However, there is no doubt that the professionalism of the band has not been affected in any way. Miwa Yoshida and Masato Nakamura did not pay attention to people outside the stage at all, and did not pay any extra attention to them.

While the two were chatting quietly, even the giraffe man turned his head and focused on the stage.

"Do you also like the setting of Mr. Giraffe in the band, Akina-san?"

Miho Nakayama remembered how Akina Nakamori looked at the giraffe man with interest just now, and asked casually.

Without waiting for an answer, he said cheerfully, with a little joy that he and his idol both liked the same thing, "I also like Mr. Giraffe very much."

"What?"

Akina Nakamori was stunned and couldn't help but glance at the giraffe man on the stage who didn't know anything.

Why is it so popular...

Miho Nakayama shared her thoughts, "It feels like there is a dreamy feeling in the band because of Giraffe-kun's presence..."

She spoke freely in front of the idol she liked and trusted.

The idol she liked and trusted, while poking at the ignorant giraffe man with his eyes, felt that this scene was a bit funny in his heart, and responded to Nakayama Miho's words.

"Mingcai-chan, it's time to get ready."

Agent Omoto came over to urge her again. Just now Miho Nakayama was coming to watch the rehearsal of Dreams Come True, and Akina Nakamori said "wait a minute" and came over to watch the rehearsal with her.

It’s time to go back now, right? Obviously nothing has been prepared yet.

"I know, let's get over it."

This time, Akina Nakamori agreed happily. She said goodbye to Miho Nakayama and went to her lounge to prepare for the next stage. Miho Nakayama, who was not in a hurry for the rehearsal, stayed and continued to watch the band's rehearsal.



The performance on the stage ended, the music stopped, and the staff gave the "Okay" instruction. Brother Nakamura took off the bass, Shinichi Iwahashi left the electronic keyboard, and the three of them walked off the stage to meet the producer.

At night, the music producer from the top recording studio talked to them about the results of the performance just now. There is no doubt about the band's live ability. The producer here can only praise them.

Everything went perfectly during the rehearsal, and the band immediately took the photo studio and returned to the lounge.

The rehearsal of the song medley that opens the night in the explosive recording studio will not start until a while later. During this time, we have to be on standby at the TV station.

That's how it is when participating in live broadcasts, you have to wait non-stop.

When the rehearsal for the song medley was over - the song Dreams Come True was assigned this time was Hikari Genji's famous song "Palora Galaxy" (Galaxy Paradise).

This song was written and composed by Asuka Ryo, a member of the duo Chuck and Asuka. This group is responsible for the production of Hikaru Genji's songs. Asuka Ryo himself is talented and has provided many hits for Hikaru Genji.

It can even be said that the songs they wrote for Hikaru Genji are of such high quality that almost anyone who sings them will become popular.

To support an idol, you must have a strong team behind you.

The song "Galaxy Paradise", with its high quality and high popularity, became the best-selling song on the singles chart last year, with 870,000 copies sold.

In an era when single sales are generally not very prosperous, these numbers can be called miraculous, and Genji Hikari is undoubtedly the most dazzling idol last year.

If it hadn't been for Kitagawa's announcement that his artists had withdrawn from all judging awards a year before, when Johnny's flip-flopped at the Grand Awards, this single would definitely have won last year's Record Awards.

It is said that before and after the Record Awards, some fanatical fans of Hikaru Genji went to Johnny & Associates to protest, and offered various "sympathies" to Kondo Masahiko who was knocked to the ground after an attempted black-box operation and could not stand up.

However, this is all a "family matter" of Johnny & Associates.

The singing skills of the beautiful boys who are just genji are hard to compliment. The production team behind this kind of idol group often writes songs based on their vocal range and singing ability.

But even so, this kind of tailor-made song will have a new style if it is sung by a singing demon like Miwa-chan. In the singing part of the song, if you are not careful occasionally, you will contribute something like a slap in the face.

Performance.

By the way, in front of Dreams Come True, the person who sang their song was Miho Nakayama.

Miho Nakayama's singing skills are extremely touching, and she relies entirely on her cuteness and beauty to support her stage performance. However, the songs written by Miwa-chan are particularly difficult to sing. For her, it can be said to be a quite and unforgettable experience.

Having said that, by arranging Dreams Come True between two idols who have no singing skills, I really don’t know whether to say that the program team is having a bad taste, or that the program team is causing trouble.

After the song duet was over, Nakayama Miho came over to apologize to the band.

This attitude made the three members of the band look at this popular idol with admiration. Iwahashi Shinichi thought that with such a character, no wonder he could stand out from the idols of the same period.



The rehearsal for the joint singing session is over, and then we are waiting for the live broadcast to officially begin.

When they returned to the lounge, their manager reminded them about sending a record to Miho Nakayama.

When this matter was mentioned, Miwa-chan remembered it and casually mentioned, "When we were rehearsing in the afternoon, both Nakayama-san and Nakamori-san were watching."

Although she adopted a ignoring attitude, she didn't really ignore it. Rather, she had control over everything on and off the stage.

"Anyway, let's go deliver the records first." Iwahashi Shinichi said.

After all, Nakayama Miho is the "senpai" who debuted several years before them. She is not old and has a high seniority. We had previously agreed to send each other records, and as a junior, Dreams Come True had to take the first step.

The three of them took their records and went to visit Miho Nakayama.

Today, the band had a lot of interactions with Miho Nakayama, and now they went over to visit. Miho Nakayama looked very happy and relaxed.

Although she is a senior, she is still young after all. In front of the three of them, Miho Nakayama cannot afford to act like a "senior".

We exchanged pleasantries again and exchanged records.

Dreams Come True has three people here, and Nakayama Miho sent three of them in one go.

After changing the records, Brother Nakamura thanked Miho Nakayama for attending their rehearsal - as the band's representative, Brother Nakamura was perfectly responsible for the task of communicating with the stars in the industry.

“Really wonderful!”

Speaking of the rehearsal in the afternoon, Miho Nakayama was not stingy with her praise, "When I saw a performance like that, I felt like I must go see such a band live."

"Thanks."

After the band thanked her, Iwahashi Shinichi took the initiative and said, "Nakayama-san, the band is scheduled to tour this year. If you don't mind, how about I send you the tickets for the Tokyo show then?"

This time, it was Nakayama Miho who thanked them.

However, the giraffe man took the initiative to talk to her. Nakayama Miho looked at his hood and asked, "The giraffe man always dresses up like this. It must be very hard, right?"

"It's a specially made headgear, so it's no problem." Shinichi Iwahashi explained.

Nakayama Miho nodded, remembered something, and said to Iwahashi Shinichi: "Not only me, Akina-san also likes the setting of Giraffe-kun in the band."

"Akina-san also likes it?"



After chatting for a while, Brother Nakamura said goodbye at the right time, and the three of them left Miho Nakayama's lounge.

When they returned, their manager had already brought back lunch boxes for them.

The luxurious setting was a blast in the recording studio at night, and the lunch boxes provided were of a very high standard, which made people feel like "We want to come to participate not only because the program has high ratings, but also because the lunch boxes are delicious."

This is the second time the band has participated in this show, so they know the specifications of their lunch box quite clearly.

Miwa-chan really likes the bento at the recording studio at night. She was a little hungry during the rehearsal just now, so she was already planning the dinner there.

But now, she opened her chopsticks but didn't move.

After thinking about it, he teased Iwahashi Shinichi, who had already taken off his hood: "Akina-san also likes Giraffe-kun."
