Iwahashi Shinichi didn't expect that she would suggest this.
With Nakamori Akina's personality, once she said it, she probably really wanted to do it. Therefore, even though it was said during a casual chat, Iwahashi Shinichi did not take it lightly.
After thinking about it, I told her, "It would be great to collaborate. However, I neither write lyrics nor music."
He is a producer, not a songwriter. If he is a songwriter, as long as he writes a song that she likes, after she likes it, he will openly and openly participate in the production of the song as a songwriter.
Akina Nakamori holds her own production rights. Although she is not yet in charge of the overall situation, at least she is her own authority when it comes to music production.
Whose song she wants to sing and how she wants to sing it is all up to her. At least she has to nod in agreement.
Although there are several types of producers, some who provide music and some who do not.
But Shinichi Iwahashi is the kind of person who has total authority and is responsible for everything except song creation, including deciding which songwriter to use and which song to release.
In the recording studio, a producer like him is the ultimate authority.
Shinichi Iwahashi has great power, so cooperating with him involves more and more complex things. It is not as simple as Akina Nakamori selecting her favorite song from a bunch of song demos and then making a final decision.
Because he knew these things in advance, even though both of them were in the industry, Shinichi Iwahashi suggested that Nakamori Akina collaborate with an up-and-coming composer like Tetsuya Komuro, but he never considered producing music for her.
Not to avoid suspicion, but because it is not easy to achieve cooperation.
"I know."
Akina Nakamori muttered, "But I still want you to help produce songs...but not because you are my boyfriend."
But I really think that he has a unique vision and a way of making music, and I want him to participate.
Otherwise, given her personality, she would not forcefully drag Shinichi Iwahashi into her team just because he is her boyfriend.
Eight years after debuting, Akina Nakamori has reached the peak of her career as a singer.
But when you reach the peak, you will inevitably face decline. Akina Nakamori is no exception. She is not the kind of person who doesn't understand that when there is a peak, there will be a decline. However, she kept trying to innovate when she was at the peak. It is the same now, and she is unwilling to maintain the status quo.
.
Perhaps big figures in the industry would accuse her of being arrogant when they heard about it, but Akina Nakamori’s idea is that if she wants to create something fresh, she needs to collaborate more with new songwriters and producers.
Shinichi Iwahashi suggested that she collaborate with Tetsuya Komuro, who had just emerged, and she thought of asking Shinichi Iwahashi to help produce the song.
But Nakamori Akina didn't just mention it casually, she really admired him and wanted to cooperate with him.
After corresponding back and forth and getting so many "tasters" from him, Nakamori Akina was very clear about what Iwahashi Shinichi made.
To let a producer like Shinichi Iwahashi produce songs, on the one hand, Warner needs to agree to his participation in Nakamori Akina's song selection and production, and on the other hand, Nakamori Akina herself has to give up her time in the recording studio.
part of the power.
One is a producer who has just become famous, and the other is Taopusida, who has been a producer for several years.
"If you let me get involved, I might have a huge quarrel with you in the recording studio." It sounded like a joke, but Iwahashi Shinichi really thought so.
With Akina Nakamori's personality of being absolutely uncompromising and able to fight with producers in the recording studio, it's impossible for her to really listen to the arrangements honestly after entering the recording studio.
Even if the production rights are really transferred to him, there will be a high probability of a fight due to differences over music production.
We have been in a smooth relationship so far, but if we got into a fight over differences in music in the recording studio, the scene would be so beautiful.
He said this, making Akina Nakamori laugh.
"Even if we have a huge quarrel, I still want you to help produce songs." She thought to herself, "No one gives in to anyone when working, and we quarrel in the recording studio. But as soon as the work is over, we make up with each other tenderly...
"
Akina Nakamori imagined it and found it interesting, "It's like having an office romance."
Iwahashi Shinichi deliberately asked her, "Is this what office romance is like?"
When he asked her this question, Nakamori Akina felt a little guilty. She had never been an office worker, and she didn't know what office romance was about.
However, although I felt guilty in my heart, I spoke confidently, "This is the office romance I imagined with Shinichi-kun."
"Haha!" Iwahashi Shin kept laughing.
Akina Nakamori said that his laughter was disturbing her mood. She became angry and broke away from his arms. She held his face with both hands and said angrily: "Don't laugh!"
Iwahashi Shinichi didn't break free, stared at her angry face, and blinked innocently.
This look made Akina Nakamori angry and funny.
...definitely on purpose!
However, facing Iwahashi Shinichi like this, she would not be really angry with him no matter what. Nakamori Akina held his face and stared into his eyes.
The two were quite bored, but they looked at each other patiently for a while.
Finally, Nakamori Akina lost her temper and asked him: "Has Shinichi-kun decided where to move?"
"..." Iwahashi Shinichi remained passively silent.
Knowing that he did it on purpose, Nakamori Akina puffed up her cheeks again. But she still had to be honest first. There was nothing she could do if she took her hand back. The person who made the move first would be at a disadvantage.
Iwahashi Shinichi wanted to laugh a little when he saw her slumped, but tried hard to hold it back.
Enough is enough and don't fan next to a fire that's just about to go out.
"I've booked an apartment over in Shinagawa." He looked around the living room and estimated, "It's about twice the size of the house here." It also has a split bathroom and toilet.
I can take a good soak in the bathtub, and the bathtub is not small.
The kitchen is also larger and the lighting in the room is better.
Although the rent has been rising steadily and the house in a good location is not expensive, it is surprising that it is not expensive. But after Shinichi Iwahashi went to see the house, he felt that "money will not be wasted, but will accompany you in another way."
.
I have made a lot of money from royalties and production fees. After making money, the most immediate thing to do to improve my quality of life is to move to a better and more comfortable house.
"We will move in late March." Shinichi Iwahashi told her, "I have started to deal with things here recently."
Send out what can be sold one after another and throw away what cannot be sold. If you want to take it away together, sort it out separately.
"Um……"
Akina Nakamori also looked at the living room.
Previously, Shinichi Iwahashi said that he would invite her to visit him after he moved, but Akina Nakamori wanted to see where he lives now.
"When Shen Yijun moves, I will prepare a moving gift for you, okay?" She looked at the living room and thought about what she would give him when he moved to a new home.
"Of course that's good." Iwahashi Shin smiled, "I won't refuse anyone who comes, and I will accept whatever you give me."
Akina Nakamori thought about it and discussed it with him on the spot. In her opinion, if you want to give a moving gift, it must be something he can use, and it must not be the same as what he bought.
Rather than being coy about it, waiting until Shinichi Iwahashi moves, and then speculating about buying it, it would be better to make an agreement with him directly.
When moving to a new house, there are a lot of things to change. However, if Shinichi Iwahashi was asked to tell him what he wanted Akina Nakamori to give him, he really couldn't come up with it for a while.
It was Akina Nakamori who came up with a good idea, "Shinichi-kun wants to listen to so many records. How about I give you a new speaker when the time comes?"
Shinichi Iwahashi is currently using a pair of bookshelf speakers he bought cheaply, just for listening.
I moved to a new house and the living room area is larger. It is a good idea to replace the speakers. But if you want to send speakers, the slightly better ones will be expensive, and Akina Nakamori will definitely spend a lot of money.
Taopusida's girlfriend, who makes a lot of money, gave him a set of speaker equipment...
It's really soft and fragrant.
…
"Actually, I've been thinking about moving recently."
The two of them were talking and unknowingly returned to the previous state. Akina Nakamori nestled into his arms again, resting her head on his shoulder.
However, this time we finally stopped talking about simple and boring topics between musicians.
"Yeah?"
The notebook just now had been put back on the bookshelf by Shinichi Iwahashi. With his hands free, he held her in his arms and said, half jokingly and half seriously, "Then I will also prepare a moving gift for you."
As soon as the front foot agreed to give him speaker equipment as a moving gift, the back foot said that he would also move, as if he was reluctant to give him a moving gift and wanted to get a moving gift in return.
Akina Nakamori also found it interesting, "Yes, yes, you have to be ready."
Of course, considering the cost of moving, "moving specifically for a moving gift" is purely a joke. However, Akina Nakamori didn't just want to move on a whim. She had been thinking about changing her place before.
It happened that Shinichi Iwahashi was also moving, so Akina Nakamori discussed with him, "Is it okay if I move to a place closer to Shinichi-kun's new apartment?"
"Okay." Iwahashi Shinichi was quite happy.
It's close, making it easy to visit. Moreover, the new apartment he chose has a nice environment and is suitable for walking.
He was happy, and Akina Nakamori was also happy, "I want to choose a house with a wider living room and a balcony. It needs to be spacious."
"Yeah." Iwahashi Shinichi listened.
She thought about the new apartment in her mind and suddenly remembered something, "The staff told me that the spacious living room is very convenient for raising puppies."
"Puppies run around everywhere, so they definitely like spacious places."
Akina Nakamori asked him: "Does Shinichi-kun like dogs?" She said "dogs" in a colloquial language only spoken by children.
"When I look at other people's dogs, I think they are very cute and lovable." Iwahashi Shinichi said, "But I have never raised one." Obediently listened to the words and asked casually: "Are Akina-san planning to raise a dog?"
She nodded again and again, "Isn't it cute that little puppy that will run to your feet when you first get home, wagging its tail and gently biting your trouser legs?"
Listening to this description, I have a pretty good idea of raising a dog.
As for the reality, it is probably not within the scope of her consideration.
"A puppy like this would be quite cute." Iwahashi Shinichi replied.
Akina Nakamori was about to make a move, "It would be nice to really raise a puppy." She was dishonest in his arms again, turned to look at him, and said with a smile: "In the evening, we can take the puppy for a walk together."
"What kind of dog should I get?"
Iwahashi Shinichi didn't have any special feelings about walking the dog with her, he just felt that it was quite... at home.
"I don't know, I haven't decided yet, let's do some research first." Akina Nakamori threw a bunch of uncertain words and used the word "investigation" solemnly.
"If you bring it back, you have to take good care of it, so it's better to be cautious."
Artists' working hours are irregular, and sometimes they have to travel far and abroad. If you really raise a dog, you will definitely have someone to help take care of it.
While Nakamori Akina was hesitating whether she could take care of her, she was tempted by the imaginary little dog that "ran over and bit her trouser legs after being ignored for a day."
After getting started, she couldn't stop, so she plunged into the ditch of how to raise a dog, and began to imagine a puppy that hadn't appeared yet, of unknown breed and personality.
Imagination is always beautiful.
But in a sense, imagining raising a dog next to Iwahashi Shinichi is actually a manifestation of gaining a sense of security.
Iwahashi Shinichi felt a little bored after hearing what she heard about the personalities of several small dogs, so he quietly reached out and tugged on her trousers.
"Why?"
Nakamori Akina turned to look at Iwahashi Shinichi, and instantly figured out what he was doing, and burst into laughter in his arms. After laughing enough, she hooked her arms around his neck, leaned over, and touched his lips lightly.
lips.
She narrowed her eyes and stared at him intently.
Iwahashi Shinichi saw her movements, and suddenly his mouth went dry. He tightened his arms around her and put his lips to hers.
When they separated, their breaths were a little confused.
Iwahashi Shinichi stretched out his hand and wiped the saliva from her mouth first. Nakamori Akina couldn't help laughing under his palm. After he finished wiping, she brought her lips over and rubbed against his mouth.
"Hahaha!"
Nakamori Akina was like a child who had just finished playing a prank, leaning in his arms and laughing non-stop. She was laughing hard and her face was red. She seemed to be using her laughter to cover up her shyness.
Iwahashi Shinichi lowered his gaze and saw her graceful and protruding collarbone.
He suddenly stretched out his right index finger and lightly touched her collarbone.
Unexpectedly, she was suddenly attacked by him. Nakamori Akina was startled for a moment, but she quickly came back to her senses. She held her breath and felt Iwahashi Shinichi's fingers sliding back and forth between her collarbones and placing them on the small nipple between her collarbones.
On top of the nest.
As if he had found a perfect place for his fingers, Shinichi Iwahashi stopped.
He pressed it down a little harder.
Nakamori Akina's back tensed up, then relaxed. She stared intently at Shinichi Iwahashi's face, feeling his fingers.
The finger slowly slid down along the small dimple, towards her sternum.
The neckline of the sweater shows its excellent elasticity.
Shinichi Iwahashi vaguely felt the sound of her heartbeat, the sound was on his fingertips.
