Next Sunday is the 16th, and Akina Nakamori will hold a concert at Yomiuri Land.
The concert venue provided by Yomiuri Land is not large in scale, so the tickets are particularly popular. When the tickets were issued, the phone number was buzzing. Afterwards, the scalpers and lions who speculated on tickets opened their mouths, and there were still people who paid a lot of money to buy them - they may not be able to buy them yet.
Shinichi Iwahashi, the acquaintance, is naturally fearless. Akina Nakamori came to spend the night this time and brought him the tickets for next Sunday's concert.
In the next week, she has a new single to be released. At that time, she will have to prepare for the concert and be busy promoting the new single, so she may not have time to meet with Shinichi Iwahashi.
It has been five months since the last single was released this time. Compared with the previous three to four months of releasing a single, it has obviously slowed down a lot.
Work hard during the rising and peak periods, and enter the stable period. When you feel the downward trend, avoid too frequent actions, play steadily again, and decide whether to maintain the status quo or make a transformation.
This is a well-established practice in the industry, and Akina Nakamori is no exception.
At the beginning of the new year, she started talking to Iwahashi Shinichi. The relationship was gentle and sweet at the beginning. Although due to some external forces, she could not openly love openly, but her mood could not deceive others.
Ever since she started falling in love with Shinichi Iwahashi, Nakamori Akina's whole person seemed to have been rewashed and sparkling. The manager who worked with her most, Omoto, would always doubt in his heart that she looked like she was in love.
Such subtle changes are not only reflected in her personal body, but for her as an "experiential" singer, her own emotions are always projected to a certain extent in her work.
Now that she is her own producer, she has a great say in the selection of songs. Her relationship is going smoothly, her mood and condition are excellent, and when she holds a song selection party, she is particularly keen on songs that are either warm or light.
.
The new song that was finally decided to be released as the A-side is indeed like this, and it sounds hearty and hearty.
Not only was the new single affected by her own mood, but even for this concert, when deciding on the playlist, she even thought about taking "Hard to Break" out of the playlist.
Although this is the song that enabled her to win three consecutive Grand Prizes and is the masterpiece of her singing career. But in her current state, Nakamori Akina feels that she cannot sing that kind of extreme sadness.
…
"What kind of clothes should I wear to watch Shinichi-kun's concert that day?"
Nakamori Akina suddenly asked. Iwahashi Shin swallowed the food in his mouth, "What?" It's not that he didn't hear clearly, but he didn't understand why she suddenly asked such a question.
"There's only one week left." He said, putting another chopstick of rice into his mouth.
It's not too early to decide what to wear that day.
After receiving such an answer, Nakamori Akina was not very satisfied. She glanced at his hand waving chopsticks to bring rice to his mouth and his mouth chewing slowly, and urged him, "Just think about it today, can't you?"
"It's so serious." Shinichi Iwahashi said, a little more seriously.
Nakamori Akina said "Yeah", "It's a very important thing... It's very important to me. I may not have time to see you next week, so I want to make an appointment with you first."
"Decide today."
Iwahashi Shinichi thought for a while and asked: "What do you think I will wear on that day?"
"I want you to dress more fashionably, but don't look like the president-san who just came out of the office." Akina Nakamori stared at his face, as if she had already started matching his clothes in her mind.
"It's not good to be too fashionable. I don't have clothes like that." Iwahashi Shinichi said.
Nakamori Akina nodded, "I understand that."... Such an unthinking response made people really don't know how to react.
"But at least it can't be too inconspicuous..." She smiled and finally told her secret, "I confirmed the area where your ticket was during the rehearsal. Knowing what you were wearing that day, I will
I can see you."
Therefore, it is very important for Akina Nakamori to figure out what Shinichi Iwahashi will wear to her concert.
"Otherwise, I'll let you decide what I wear that day."
Iwahashi Shinichi said with a smile. He didn't care whether it would come true. Just pretend that it was the day of the concert. Akina Nakamori could really find him from the crowd of people in the audience. "How do you want me to wear it? I will wear it on that day."
What to wear."
"Uh-huh."
Nakamori Akina beamed. After clearing the dining table, she couldn't wait to drag Shinichi Iwahashi to his dressing room. She looked as if she was going to make some major changes to her boyfriend.
Iwahashi Shinichi lets her do whatever she wants, and he has a calm demeanor that is not afraid of boiling water - mainly because he has confidence in his wardrobe and does not have to worry about any non-mainstream combinations.
If I went shopping with her to buy clothes, it wouldn't be so indifferent.
Akina Nakamori took the opportunity to dress up her boyfriend and "inspected" his wardrobe for the first time. Looking at her satisfied curiosity, she felt like she had impure motives and was taking the opportunity to pry.
Anyway, she was looking through it in front, and Shinichi Iwahashi stood behind to watch her look through it, and sometimes asked her to pick up a shirt and make gestures in front of her.
The atmosphere is harmonious and harmonious.
Akina Nakamori saw the ties she gave to Shinichi Iwahashi put together with other ties, and couldn't help but laugh, "Did you buy something that doesn't fit well?"
When she bought it, she didn't think that when they were put together like this, she could recognize them at a glance.
The fashionable looking ones are all her handiwork.
"It's okay." Shinichi Iwahashi also smiled, "I went to a meeting before and saw someone wearing a tie with little cartoon octopus patterns on it."
"Really?" Akina Nakamori imagined it and laughed.
Compared with the cartoon octopus, it seems that he can accept anything... She smiled, her eyes fell on one of them, and her eyes lit up, "This one is really beautiful."
It's not too serious, but it's not so fashionable that it can't be worn. The color and pattern even Nakamori Akina thought were tasteful, and she was resigned to it. She picked it up, turned around, and asked Iwahashi Shinichi, "Really?"
Iwahashi Shinichi saw this tie in Nakamori Akina's hand and said "hmm".
That one was given to him by Watanabe Manyumi.
When the two of them went to choose a gift for Mori Masako, Watanabe Manyumi gave him a tie on a whim. After buying the gift, he followed Watanabe Manyumi to visit Mori Shinichi and learned about the Record Awards.
The dice of life are spinning, making people dazzled.
Akina Nakamori looked at Shinichi Iwahashi and suddenly said: "Can you give me this tie?"
"What?"
Akina Nakamori stared at his face and said to him, "I want to use it for my concert costume... There is a skirt with a belt that I don't really like, so I want to try using a tie instead."
"Forget it." He asked Akina Nakamori to tie the tie given to him by Watanabe Mayumi around his waist. Just thinking about the scene made Shinichi Iwahashi think it was too gorgeous.
"This one is nice." Akina Nakamori said again as if she didn't intend to let go. As she said that, she looked at him with her eyes, then put the one back in its place and said nonchalantly, "You're just kidding~"
However, she said it was a joke, and she quietly breathed a sigh of relief. She wanted this tie on a whim, and if Iwahashi Shinichi really agreed, she didn't have the courage to really tie it around her waist.
Is this the so-called "woman's heart"? Nakamori Akina also knew that she was testing him. She knew that testing was not good, but she listened to her nature before reason.
Iwahashi Shinichi saw her reaction in his eyes and said nothing. In a sense, he and Nakamori Akina each experienced and understood what "a woman's heart" is from this tie.
"This one."
Akina Nakamori pointed to one of the ties she bought for Shinichi Iwahashi when she went on a business trip abroad, "Can I borrow this?"
The angry remark just now started. Half of her was thinking about rectifying what had just happened, and the other half began to think that it would be a good idea to wear one of his ties as a belt for her skirt.
In this way, when she performs on stage and changes into an outfit that matches Shinichi Iwahashi's tie, it will be like sharing the same secret with Shinichi Iwahashi in public.
Just like when she stood on the stage and saw Shinichi Iwahashi wearing the clothes she chose for the show, she would think that he was here for her.
Akina Nakamori also thought that at least during the time when she was wearing his tie, when Shinichi Iwahashi looked over from the audience, he could have the feeling that it was for him.
It's like a different kind of date.
"Please use it." Iwahashi Shinichi made a "please" gesture. After thinking about it, "But remember to return it to me after you use it...you still need to use it again." He comforted calmly.
Nakamori Akina's eyes were bright, "Of course."
She took out the tie she had chosen for herself. As if nothing had happened, she began to choose clothes for Shinichi Iwahashi. After choosing for a while, she suddenly sighed, turned around, and puffed her cheeks towards Shinichi Iwahashi.
"What's wrong?" Shinichi Iwahashi looked at her face, which looked like she was tired of this game.
Nakamori Akina didn't answer, she stretched out her arms and ran into his arms. The two of them were used to hugging each other, and Iwahashi Shinichi habitually put his hands on her waist, but——
"Don't move, don't move." She ordered.
Shinichi Iwahashi was speechless and motionless. Akina Nakamori circled his waist in a decent manner, and gestured to measure upward. Shinichi Iwahashi allowed himself to be manipulated, looking at the ceiling.
"I'll buy you some clothes next time." Nakamori Akina muttered, "Let Shinichi-kun be more fashionable."
Buy him clothes and dress him up from head to toe... Just saying some coaxing words is not enough.
The little rich woman Taopusida wants to buy clothes for her, which seem to be fragrant and soft again...
But when it comes to his own external image, Iwahashi Shinichi still tries hard to make demands, "Forget about the ones that are too fashionable."
"We'll talk about it then." Nakamori Akina probably did it on purpose and refused to agree to him. She said angrily, "You can't not wear it after you buy it."
It was difficult to refuse, and it was difficult to agree immediately. Iwahashi Shinichi felt that his teeth were a bit sore.
Nakamori Akina knew that she was being unreasonable, but she felt relieved to demand a meal so arrogantly and unreasonably. There was a sense of pleasure in confronting an imaginary enemy and beating the opponent to pieces.
Spiritual victory.
...Although it didn't make sense from beginning to end. She gave Iwahashi Shinichi a hard time and felt comfortable, but she felt that it was unreasonable to treat him like that. She got into his arms and hugged him tightly.
I definitely won't buy him clothes that are too fashionable...but I can't say that now.
Iwahashi Shin didn't move at all, as if he was still waiting to be measured.
This is probably intentional...
Nakamori Akina had been dating him for quite some time, and knew that Iwahashi Shinichi occasionally had such a bad taste in tit-for-tat. She felt angry and funny, so she bumped his chest with her forehead, and she ended up first
Dizzy.
She is a person who will take action if she disagrees. She is obviously very weak, and there is a high probability that she will not be able to defeat the opponent and will be killed first, but when she gets stronger, she still ignores her.
"Haha." Iwahashi Shin kept laughing.
After making her suffer a little, he put his hand on her back.
Nakamori Akina herself felt it was funny, she smiled against him for a while, hooked her arms around his neck, pursed her lips at him, and waited for him with a smile.
Iwahashi Shinichi brought back one hand, put his thumb and index finger together, and pinched her lips gently.
"Boom!"
This time, she was punched by Akina Nakamori. After being teased again and again, she couldn't bear it anymore and hit Shinichi Iwahashi. She looked at his smiling face angrily, hooked his neck hard, and pulled him towards her.
, and pressed his lips firmly.
…
Finally, after all the hard work, both of them felt happy, and finally decided on the clothes they would wear for the concert next Sunday. Akina Nakamori helped him find the clothes he had chosen separately, "Don't forget them," she warned.
"Don't worry." Iwahashi Shinichi agreed.
Nakamori Akina was in a happy mood and turned to look at him, "There is also a tie..."
Iwahashi Shinichi said "Yeah", "Don't forget to take it when you go back."
"It's not that." Nakamori Akina shook her head, "It's the tie you need to wear on Sunday."
Iwahashi Shinichi looked at her.
"I'll give you another one later," Akina Nakamori said to him.
"Do you want to buy again?" Iwahashi Shinichi answered. Seeing her happy look, it was understandable.
Akina Nakamori smiled and said, "If I have time to meet, I will bring it to you in person. Otherwise, I will mail it to you." In two days, there will be a new single as a "taster" to be sent to Shinichi Iwahashi.
…
Before noon, Akina Nakamori returned from his place.
In the afternoon, Iwahashi Shinichi set out for Yokohama with a sentimental opportunity. Fujifilm was hosting a business there, not only playing golf, but also preparing a reception program tonight.
Not only did he go, his brother-in-law Hiroyuki Narita was also invited.
This collaboration between DREAMS E TRUE and Fujifilm was a great success. Not only did the TV commercial drive the sales of the single, but the single also in turn boosted the sales of disposable cameras.
Fujifilm's treat is the end of this cooperation, or a celebration.
