"Johnny's new idol group, 'Heike Pai', has decided to sign a record deal with Sony."
On this day, Shinichi Iwahashi finished a meeting at the record company and after the meeting, Watanabe Manyumi went to find him. When he returned to the office, he heard her mention this matter.
"Heike faction." Shinichi Iwahashi recalled.
He doesn't pay much attention to male idols.
Watanabe Manyumi reminded, "It's the group that was temporarily introduced by Johnny to attract attention... and Keiko-san of the agency is fully responsible for it."
"Ah." Now he remembered.
However, along with the memory, there was also the uproar a while ago about the news that Kondo Masahiko was kicked out by Johnny's, and Hong Kong singer Amei bought an entire page of "Asahi Shimbun" to collect debts from him.
The name Amei is quite familiar to Iwahashi Shinichi. Not only that, but he has also heard many urban legends such as the big boss behind her is very powerful and people who offend her eat peanuts afterwards.
The legendary eldest sister in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
"This is the first time I have seen the way Xiangjiang people behave." Watanabe Wanyumi thought about it and couldn't help but sigh.
Putting disgraceful things directly on the table, such a drastic method really opened the eyes of Watanabe Wan Yumi, who is Japanese.
Iwahashi Shin smiled but didn't answer.
The distance between Xiangjiang and Tokyo is too far, and the information is not equal. Therefore, people in Tokyo will not know that this unfamiliar "Amei" in their eyes is not only not a small character, but also a ruthless character.
In today's Hong Kong entertainment industry, all kinds of evil forces are rampant. Even if she is not ruthless, none of the big guys behind her are easy to mess with. If you dare to touch their money tree, your life will be in danger.
As for Kondo Masahiko, whom Amei wanted to collect debt from, Iwahashi Shinichi didn't take it to heart at all.
"Kondo has himself to blame. If Daesang hadn't made the wrong move, he might still be in the industry, and he wouldn't be where he is today." Watanabe Wan Yumi said about the Daesang incident and glanced at Shinichi Iwahashi.
In a sense, Shinichi Iwahashi played an important role in getting Kondo Masahiko to this point.
"However," she changed the topic, "Johnis wants to cover up, and everyone in the industry is not a fool. I heard that Marissa is still in the hospital... obviously she is angry with Kondo."
Although everyone in the industry knew what was going on, since Johnny said so, everyone acted in harmony.
Anyway, Kondo Masahiko and the Hong Kong singer Amei who suddenly appeared in the Japanese public eye are like big stones thrown into the water. When there are big waves, the stones will always sink to the bottom, and then the water surface will return to calm.
.
No one will care about these sunken stones, but they will continue to work with Johnny in the industry.
"Is the Heike faction going to sign with Sony?" Iwahashi Shin brought the topic back, "Looking at it from the looks of it, the debut standards given by Jason are not low."
"I heard it's compensation." Watanabe Manyumi told him, "Kondo's recording contract is with Sony. This time Johnny negotiated with Sony and decided to scrap all the records he released, which caused a lot of losses to Sony.
.”
Therefore, this temporary group was formed not only to block guns and train Fujishima Keiko, but also to "pay off debts."
"That sounds very pitiful." Shinichi Iwahashi smiled.
Watanabe Manyumi also smiled and said, "How could someone as calculating as Jason make random moves?" The subject changed, "Because they are a debt-paying group, Sony has been fully entrusted with the production."
"Yeah?"
"It seems that I left it to Sakai Masari-san." Watanabe Manyumi told him the information.
Sakai Masatoshi is a famous idol maker, and not only that, Iijima Mitochi came out from under him.
But Watanabe Mayumi's words only ended here and did not continue.
Although she said half and half was suspected of persecuting cats, Iwahashi Shinichi knew what she meant after thinking about it for a moment.
The Heike sent it to Sony, and Iwahashi Shinichi's production company could consider selling the music to them. Johnny's idols have their own sales base, and selling the composer's music to them is a sure profit.
In addition to this, what's more important is to take this opportunity to get in touch with Sakai Masatori.
The large-scale project that Shinichi Iwahashi plans to produce requires the support of a broad production network. Masatoshi Sakai, a famous producer who covers everything from idols to pop to encore, can be the best helper if he can get it.
To gain the support of a music producer, it is not enough just to have a relationship with employees who work for him.
Although until now, his ideas about the plan are still in his mind and drafts, and he has not yet compiled a plan that is clear enough to be written down.
But with such a far-reaching plan, there is no reason to go to Dongfeng until everything is ready. Watanabe Mayumi prepared for a rainy day, and Iwahashi Shinichi also accepted her suggestion.
…
The roller coaster slows down and returns to where it started.
The once blank brain gradually recovered its color. Iwahashi Shinichi heard a voice in his ear, "Are you okay? Shinichi-kun." When he turned around, he saw the cheerful face of Akina Nakamori.
Iwahashi Shinichi nodded mechanically and came to his senses, "...it's okay."
The gap between people is so big.
It was also a roller coaster ride, and Nakamori Akina enjoyed the whole process as if nothing had happened, and even comforted him with a smile afterwards. Iwahashi Shinichi could only start to do psychological construction while waiting in line, but after finishing it, he realized that psychological construction was of no use at all.
.
Only the condolences I received from my girlfriend at this moment were real - even though she was laughing hard.
Fortunately, my mind was just blank, and it was over before I realized what happened. There was nothing like screaming, dizziness, and finally being helped out of the car by my girlfriend.
It was precisely because it didn't happen that Shinichi Iwahashi healed his scar and forgot about the pain. After walking out for a while, he began to vaguely think that next time he rides a roller coaster, he must "avoid shame" and overcome this devouring courage.
The steel serpent.
In mid-March, although the temperature was still a bit low at night, it was comfortable and pleasant during the day, making it just the right time to go out on a date. The two of them checked their itineraries and chose a weekday that was not Saturday or Sunday to go to the amusement park together.
Going to the amusement park together was something we had agreed on a long time ago, and it was finally fulfilled. Akina Nakamori was looking forward to it. The night before departure, she even gave Shinichi Iwahashi advice on the phone, telling him what to wear on the date the next day.
Such clothes.
She was very energetic before setting off, and when she entered the amusement park, she was even more like a crazy child. She was eager to drag Shinichi Iwahashi from south to north, and then from white to black. She played all the various projects before the park closed.
No return.
Taopusida, who was completely immersed in having fun, didn't need to make any disguise and looked just like an ordinary girl.
However, it was not that he was not discovered at all. On the way, he met two or three girls who were together. The other girl passed by them and caught up with them. He asked tentatively: "Excuse me, is this Nakamori Akina-san?"
One was responsible for talking, while the other two secretly glanced at the two of them.
Akina Nakamori said "Hey", "Are I very similar to Akina-san?" She pretended to be stupid as if nothing had happened, and patted Shinichi Iwahashi by the way, using him as a tool for acting, "I just said that we are two
A bit similar, right?"
"..."
Shinichi Iwahashi tried hard to keep his facial expression from breaking down.
The girl opposite was not very sure at first. Seeing her reaction, she gave up the idea and apologized: "Sorry for disturbing you." She left a little disappointed.
Taopusida, who was almost recognized, breathed a sigh of relief... Before he could finish, he heard the chattering discussion of several girls who had not gone far, "Akina-san is not so tacky..."
"..."
Iwahashi Shinichi tried hard not to laugh. Nakamori Akina herself was in a state where she wanted to laugh but was afraid of revealing her secret. As a result, when she turned her head and saw his suppressed smile, she became unhappy and bumped his shoulder with her shoulder.
"Akina-san wouldn't be so rude."
Iwahashi Shinichi imitated the sentence patterns of the girls just now and teased her.
Nakamori Akina glanced at him hard, "That's not necessarily true. I'm actually tacky and rude."
"Really?" Shinichi Iwahashi asked jokingly.
She nodded seriously, "Yeah. Not only that, but there are also many unlovable and unlovable things about her. She is a very troublesome woman."
"It sounds scary."
"Really?" Akina Nakamori asked this time. She was more generous, "But it's too late to say I was scared now."
Iwahashi Shinichi nodded seriously, "Indeed." He looked at her and sang along with her, "So I had no choice but to accept the order."
Akina Nakamori smiled broadly and grabbed his arm, "Let's go, let's go~"
With this energy, she took Shinichi Iwahashi to accompany her to the mountains and sea, and made clear arrangements for him.
…
We spent a day playing in the amusement park and then went to have dinner together in the evening. Shinichi Iwahashi collected a lot of information about restaurants and teahouses from the fat young man, so he happened to go to explore the stores with her.
"When will Shinichi-kun move?"
In the reserved restaurant, the two of them sat facing each other.
"This Saturday," Shinichi Iwahashi told her, "Everything that needs to be sent out for processing has been sent away one after another, and everything that needs to be packed has been sorted out."
Thinking of something, "If you come to my place now, you won't feel neat."
As soon as she mentioned going to his place, Nakamori Akina couldn't help but look at Iwahashi Shinichi's face. While looking at him, she seemed to be worried that he would guess what she was thinking, so she changed the subject and said, "I left Shinichi-kun's address.
Give it to the audio store and deliver it on Saturday."
"OK."
Iwahashi Shinichi agreed and asked her, "What do Akina-san want when moving to a new home? I'll also give you something useful."
Previously, Akina Nakamori said that she also planned to move, but later she actually sent a task to her agent to find a new apartment.
It is common for artists to move. If they are not popular and become popular, they will have to live in a more expensive house. If they are popular, they will fall into a trough. If their popularity disappears, their consumption will have to be downgraded.
In addition, in order not to be stared at by weekly reporters or fanatical sasaeng fans, they have to move from time to time. Considering this, when celebrities become famous, they first spend a lot of money to buy new houses for their family members, and then themselves
But I rent a house.
Nakamori Akina said she wanted to move closer to Shinichi Iwahashi's new apartment, but she didn't want to be neighbors upstairs or downstairs. The new address she finally chose was about a dozen miles away from Shinichi Iwahashi.
Minutes, neither near nor far.
"Um……"
Akira Nakamori put his chin on his hands and thought for a while, "I want something useful in the kitchen."
"Something that can be used in the kitchen?" This range is quite broad. Iwahashi Shinichi thought about it, "Pots, pans, and the like?"
It was okay not to say it, but once he said it, his superficial understanding of the kitchen was exposed. Nakamori Akina secretly smiled and did not embarrass him, "I will tell you what to give when I prepare to move and take inventory of things."
"Okay." It's so direct and it makes me happy.
The two people have the same idea on this matter, and they both focus on practicality.
Iwahashi Shinichi doesn’t drink when driving, and he didn’t ask for alcoholic beverages for dinner.
Anyway, it was still early, and Akina Nakamori said she wanted to dance. Halfway through dinner, Shinichi Iwahashi called MAHARAJA to reserve a private room.
One of the reasons why MAHARAJA stands out among the luxury discos is its exquisiteness and thoughtfulness.
When we first opened the store, we held various activities to attract customers with discounts, and then invited customers to apply for membership cards. After applying for the cards, we would send birthday greetings from time to time, provide regular discounts, and call to negotiate and resolve any issues. We relied on service to win and capture the hearts of customers.
Iwahashi Shinichi did not apply for a membership card when he went to socialize and dance with people in the industry. However, after dancing with Akina Nakamori once or twice, he became a gold card member of MAHARAJA for convenience.
MAHARAJA is a favorite place for many people in the entertainment industry. The boss is extremely considerate and has also opened a special channel for gold card members. As long as you pay enough, you can avoid meeting ordinary customers.
Falling in love costs money, let alone falling in love with Taopu Star.
After the happy meowing, the relationship between the two of them is still the same as before. They are both very busy at work, so if they don't have time to meet, they will make a phone call. When they have a little free time, they will go out to drink tea and walk across the street in the dead of night.
If we have more time, we can go have a meal and dance together.
Nakamori Akina heard from Okada Yukiko that Iwahashi Shinichi was a master dancer, and later inspected the goods in person and confirmed it.
However, there is no change in the way of getting along, but you can still feel that the attitude towards each other has changed subtly. For Shinichi Iwahashi, the most intuitive feeling is that Nakamori Akina and him are closer and closer
Already.
Went to MAHARAJA to dance for a while, Iwahashi Shinichi sent Nakamori Akina home.
The car drove into the parking lot of her apartment. Akina Nakamori looked at him and said, "Shinichi-kun, would you like to go up and have a cup of tea?"
He picked her up early in the morning and stayed together all day. At night, she still refused to say goodbye to him. Rather, it was precisely because they had been together all day that she didn't want to let go at this moment.
This dependence on him became especially clear after Meow Meow passed away.
"I want to drink some oolong tea." Shinichi Iwahashi said, unbuckled his seat belt and walked into the elevator with her.
Once and twice, I got acquainted. When I arrived at her house, I sat on the sofa and waited for her to bring tea after she was busy running around.
