Nakamori Akina was dissatisfied with his moving around, and held his face with her two paws, looking down at his face, "It's almost twelve o'clock, and you suddenly said you must see me, even yesterday morning..."
She stared into Iwahashi Shinichi's eyes and couldn't speak any more.
"Yesterday morning was yesterday morning, and tonight is tonight." At this time, Iwahashi Shinichi said something nonsensical.
Nakamori Akina was angry and funny, "If it's later, it will be tomorrow."
"Maybe it's already..."
When he said this, Nakamori Akina reached out to touch his wrist, took the one with the watch on it, and raised it to her eyes, "It's twelve o'clock seven."
In other words, at the turn of the old and new days, the two of them were fighting like a cat and a mouse.
"Fortunately, today, no, yesterday was not New Year's Eve, otherwise this ceremony to welcome the New Year would have been too special."
Akina Nakamori was even more convinced by Iwahashi Shinichi's ability to make wisecracks, and burst out laughing. While laughing, she continued to get into trouble with him, "On New Year's Eve, I will go back to my hometown without seeing you."
"Alas." Shinichi Iwahashi sighed in a decent manner, "You've done a really thorough job."
Nakamori Akina glared at him again, "It's not because of Shinichi-kun..." However, thinking of the fragile look in Iwahashi Shinichi's eyes he saw just now, he stopped talking, "Next time, I will take you to see my mother. What do you think, do you want to go?
"
"Okay, of course I want to go." Iwahashi Shinichi said without thinking.
Nakamori Akina held his face and looked into his eyes, "I'm not bragging, my mother is really amazing, she is cheerful, and all the neighbors have liked her since she was a child. What can I say?" I heard Chieko
My mood improved when I talked~'"
"Yeah." Iwahashi Shinichi listened.
Nakamori Akina continued to brag about Chieko, "My mother is also a super cooking expert and has a prosperous shop."
"Yeah, yeah." Iwahashi Shinichi heard her say.
"My mother can also make delicious fried burgers. Among the fried burgers I have ever eaten, there is no one better than my mother's cooking. As long as I eat it, I will be full of energy. When I was a child, I was wronged and had no energy. I would just eat it.
When my mother makes fried hamburgers, I can't stop working hard. After that, I can solve everything beautifully and never flinch from any difficulty."
"Let mother make fried burgers for Shinichi-kun too."
As Nakamori Akina spoke, she suddenly started to shed tears.
It seemed that when Iwahashi Shinichi was awake, he felt and touched his fragility for the first time. He actually didn't say anything, but when I saw his eyes just now, I thought about him running here late at night just to see him.
Her side.
The less he came for anything, the more she thought about those words later, the more she felt sad and felt his loneliness.
Akina Nakamori's tears fell more and more. Iwahashi Shinichi took her hand away from his face and wiped the tears on her face with his cheek.
"Tears are not decorations HoHoHo~" He recited her lyrics dryly.
Nakamori Akina burst into tears and laughed, "There is no such lyrics."
"No?" Shinichi Iwahashi was cheek to cheek with her.
"It's 'But these tears are so sad HoHoHo~'." She also wanted to recite it dryly, but she was used to singing her famous songs, so she still recited the first half, but the second half had the tune.
And because it was sung casually, the tune was not accurate.
While she was shedding tears, she was coaxed by him into singing her own song in a nonsensical tone.
This scene probably looks like some kind of comedy show...
"So, don't cry." Iwahashi Shinichi held her face and wiped away all her tears with the palm of his hand.
Akina Nakamori said "hmm", nodded, stretched out a finger and rubbed his face, "This is mine too."
Iwahashi Shinichi felt the fingertips moving on his face and blinked.
This is the person he chose.
…
Iwahashi Shinichi came in a hurry and left in a hurry, not staying with her for long.
What happened late that night was like an episode, appearing by chance and then disappearing quietly. After that, either Iwahashi Shinichi or Nakamori Akina, the two of them had a perfect tacit understanding, and no one mentioned it again, as if it had never happened before.
Had.
But the two of them had a perfect tacit understanding, and each understood in their hearts that nothing had happened.
However, no one can tell what that little episode will bring.
Time goes forward.
At the beginning of a new week, the first day was filled with work from morning to night. In the morning, Omoto went to pick up Akina Nakamori. He was a little worried when he saw that she was listless, her eyelids were a little swollen, and she looked like she had trouble sleeping.
"Can you still eat it?"
Akina Nakamori sat in the back seat, looking into the goggles and thinking about how to put on makeup later. Her face looked ugly, but her voice was still full of energy, "No problem, it just looks ugly."
"That's good." Da Ben responded.
At the beginning of the new week, Nakamori Akina's new singles have also begun to be released one after another. The related song promotion arrangements are full. For the first single of the eighth anniversary, the agency and the record company are thinking about stabilizing her momentum. For this reason
Large-scale publicity was arranged.
The program to be aired this week was already recorded last week. What was recorded today and what is being recorded now will not be aired until a week or two later.
Idols rely on singing shows, and the singing shows that idols star in always have luxurious settings, including setting up studios to play games, preparing expensive and gorgeous food, etc., and the expenses are staggering.
When the ratings are high, there is no need to keep it. If the ratings drop, there is no need to retain it.
In April this year, after the TV station readjusted its programs, it cut many idol-centered music programs. The lack of a stage for self-expression was another heavy blow to idols who had already begun to decline.
However, the "idol exposure crisis" has not had a big impact on Akina Nakamori.
Among the top-notch audio programs, although several of them were suffering from growing deficits, and the TV station thought of cutting them off during the meeting, they still survived the major adjustment in April, at least in the past six months.
reserve.
Little idols can't get into this kind of music, but Tao Pu stars are as relaxed and casual as if they were back in their own living room.
Therefore, when the work and exposure of young idols have dropped sharply, Taopu Star can still be busy until late at night during the promotion period.
Nakamori Akina can no longer be regarded as an "idol" in the traditional sense. Her frequency and mode of releasing films, and she also serves as her own producer, are closer to SOLO in all aspects.
singer.
However, although people in the industry no longer regard her as an idol, and programs that are not open to idols will also propose invitations to her. But for the general public, when they mention her, they still regard her as an idol first.
, remembering that she was in the "Flower Group 82" and defeated her idol Matsuda Seiko, Toyotomi Hideyoshi among idols.
Her status as an idol has brought her great popularity and given her the confidence to be ever-changing. But this year, this month, her status as an idol has become a shackle for her.
The reason for this is that since this month, the band has made one big move after another.
At the beginning of a new week, last week's sales war has also come to an end. As expected, P day NCESS and SP day NCESS successfully succeeded DREAM color T-cup E and won the weekly championship.
The expected ranking is not surprising. However, for four consecutive weeks, the number one spot on the singles chart has been occupied by the band, which looks quite spectacular.
This April, Sony Records is going to make a lot of money.
In the midst of this, there is also the male Douhu group, a popular idol who came to the door and was completely cannon fodder, becoming an embellishment in the band's prosperous era.
In this sales war, the male Dou Hu group doesn't even have a chance to show off. It has no other purpose than to set off the band's strength in the future.
He looked cowardly when he was pressed down and beaten the whole time, but he was unable to fight back when he was beaten, which frightened onlookers.
As for Warner, Akina Nakamori's singles have not yet been released on the shelves. After seeing the experience of the male Douhu group, I already felt heavy pressure.
The idols who represented the male Douhu group lost their place and momentum in this sales war, but the band became famous in one battle and became so powerful that the mass media hyped up the arrival of the band era.
And the new single of P-NCESSP-NCESS is not much worse than DREAM Color T Breasts E. Sony is determined to support them to reach the top. In this way, they won the championship in the first week and have great stamina.
If sufficient, we will definitely increase publicity investment in the new week and strive for a second consecutive championship.
Akira Nakamori's album has not yet been officially released for sale, because his status as an idol in the eyes of the public has been lost for a while.
This day to release a new single is not the right one.
In any case, when it comes time to carefully select the release date, regretting that the date for releasing the single is not appropriate is already a sign of going downhill.
But in the final analysis, it is because when the release date was decided, the record company knew that DREAM and NCES were strong, but they did not expect that these two bands could be so strong.
He was so strong that he lifted up the piece of cloth and revealed the band's coming of age on the table.
In the new week, not only is Nakamori Akina the biggest opponent for P-Day NCESSP-Day NCESS to win the title for the second consecutive week, but also vice versa. Kenyin and Warner regard P-Day NCESSP-Day NCESS as a strong threat to Nakamori Akina.
As a singer, you are more sensitive to the trends in the industry. Recently, the strength of the band has become a topic, and it is impossible for Nakamori Akina not to know.
Besides, the band that plays one of the protagonists is DREAM. Akina Nakamori is fully aware of the situation in the music industry these days.
She debuted as an idol and became an idol. But her boyfriend only did things that made things difficult for the idol.
His debut was a legitimate idol who broke out of "STAR! Birth". After that, it was a production band music festival, and then a production band audition. Now, the band he produced and participated in has become a great success, ushering in the "Band Era"
"Arrival" topic...
It’s as if she’s here specifically to have trouble with her idol and to end the idol era. Is the severe situation she will face next week caused by her boyfriend?
However, she thought of Iwahashi Shinichi's fragile appearance last night, and she only had a simple thought in her heart, that is, she hoped that he would succeed, and she would not even feel that the situation she had to face was so difficult.
After recording the program, on the way to the next location, Akina Nakamori thought of these things that she didn't know whether to call coincidence or fate. Instead of worrying about the situation she had to face, she felt a little funny.
Daben glanced at the rearview mirror and asked casually, "Have you thought of anything good?"
Akina Nakamori replied in a long tone, "Yes~" and told Ben, "I'm thinking of something good."
Hearing this tone, I am indeed very happy.
Daben was a little curious and asked one more question, "What's the good thing? Can you tell me about it?"
Nakamori Akina is a person whose emotions are easily written on her face. However, although it is easy to see, it is not easy to express it.
Da Ben has worked with her for a long time and knows her little temper. It was rare for her to be so cheerful today, so she asked one more question.
It was okay not to ask, but as soon as I asked, the thought of being "refreshed" towards her disappeared.
Nakamori Akina put the topic back, "I can't tell you, Omoto-san." She was like a child who was guarding her food, refusing to give her candy to others, and refused.
As long as she said so, there would be no room for negotiation.
I was shocked, but I also felt that it was expected, so I didn't take it to heart.
The traffic lights ahead started to flash, and Omoto slowly stepped on the brakes. He glanced at the rearview mirror and saw Akina Nakamori taking out a book from her handbag.
You can tell it's an origami book without even looking.
Reading origami books while on the move has become her habit and pastime.
Akina Nakamori is a person who goes all out when it comes to things she likes, and slows down when she doesn't like them. She doesn't even want to pretend, and is very childish.
She started reading origami books last year, and she is still doing it this year... She really likes it.
…
In the new week, P-day NCESS and SP-day NCESS successfully won the weekly championship and launched a charge towards the second consecutive championship.
Since Shinichi Iwahashi wanted to see the sales trend of DREAM colored T-shirts and E, as well as ZARD, which continued to sell them unhurriedly, he would not skip the P day NCESS SP day NCESS that topped the list.
Looking at their sales momentum, plus Sony's full support for their daughter, it won't be a problem to sell 100,000 or 80,000 copies this week.
In that case, it would be a bit embarrassing to choose Akina Nakamori to release a single this week.
First, the male Douhu group, which represents the new power of idols, was defeated by DREAM T-shirts. If Nakamori Akina, who represents the idol, loses to P-NCESSP and NCESS, it will become a stepping stone for the era of the band just like the male Douhu group.
The new generation is vulnerable, and the veterans cannot resist the arrival of new trends.
For Nakamori Akina, if she is really snatched away from the weekly championship in the second week by P-Day NCESS and SP-Day NCESS, it will be like exposing her "downhill" issue to the public, which will have a great impact on her momentum.
.
Iwahashi Shinichi was thinking about the inappropriate single she chose for this day.
Or maybe it wasn't that she chose the wrong day. Originally, Sony postponed the release date of the former by two weeks in order to prevent infighting between NCESS and DREAM.
If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have had a head-on battle with Akina Nakamori this week.
The band that Iwahashi Shinichi participated in was very popular, but it inadvertently affected Nakamori Akina's film release plan.
I don’t know whether this is a coincidence or fate.
However, while worrying about Nakamori Akina, Iwahashi Shinichi also felt that "the time has come."
