"Next time you go to a concert with the belt of your skirt tied around your neck!"
"Isn't it forbidden to mention it next time..."
Nakamori Akina's eyes widened, and Iwahashi Shinichi lowered his head and agreed without conscience, "Yeah, I'll wear it next time."
It made her cry. At this time, no matter what she said, she had to take it as it was.
"I want you to go out on a date wearing it!" She pushed even further.
"Isn't that inappropriate?" Shinichi Iwahashi did not completely give up his struggle, and reminded him tactfully, "It is so conspicuous that everyone passing by will look this way."
"Too……"
Akina Nakamori nodded her head and finally gave up the idea. But she was still unconvinced and complained vaguely to him, "Why can't we go out to play more conspicuously..."
"Whenever you can, prepare some fancy clothes for me to wear and have a good time."
"Then I will prepare something for you that anyone who sees it will have to look back and take another look." Akina Nakamori chuckled, feeling a little more comfortable, and quietly slid over to Shinichi Iwahashi.
"show me."
Iwahashi Shin hugged her in his arms, took one of her hands, and looked at her wrist.
Nakamori Akina started touching him with her feet again and again, muttering and complaining, "Why are you like this..."
"It's not you first..." Iwahashi Shinichi was stopped by her glare.
She plausibly said, "I was joking with you, who knew you were serious about it." It was okay if she didn't say it, but when she said it, she started to get angry with him for his misbehavior just now. When she saw the neck and shoulders right in front of her, she suddenly went to bite him.
Take a sip.
"Well……"
So isn’t this the so-called so-called failure to do something but to be done with it...
Iwahashi Shinichi finally gained the upper hand. He knew that he could no longer offend this kitten that was only one step away from exploding, so he honestly endured being bitten.
After she finished biting, she lost her temper and started acting coquettishly, "I'm so hungry."
Not to mention it was okay, but as soon as I said it, Iwahashi Shinichi also felt empty in his stomach, and looked at the bedside, "What do you want to eat?"
"I don't want to move at all."
Nakamori Akina's eyebrows drooped, and her eyelids that had been crying were a little red, looking like a pitiful little animal. Iwahashi Shinichi saw this and felt heartbroken, but he couldn't help laughing, so he leaned in for a kiss.
Kiss her face.
Akina Nakamori shrank her chin, "What are you laughing at?"
"Akina-san is like a child." Seeing her curled up into a ball, Iwahashi Shinichi felt warm in his heart. He couldn't bear to bully her anymore, so he held her in his arms and patted her gently.
Being treated like a child, Nakamori Akina began to feel unconvinced and reasoned with him, "I'm one year older than you, and Shinichi-kun is obviously a junior..."
While I was reasoning, I began to feel that I was wrong.
Although she is a "older sister", she never seems to have done anything "older". Not only that, she is pampered, cared for and even made to cry every day...
Nakamori Akina simply gave up on herself, arched her arms in his arms, and pressed her eyelids against his chest, "Shinichi-kun is still gentle now." After thinking about it, "You better not wear my skirt belt to go to the concert..."
She didn't want Iwahashi Shinichi to become her property, nor did she want the power of being a controller.
"Yes." Shinichi Iwahashi listened, touched her head, and kissed her hair.
Akina Nakamori hugged him and swayed around, laughing childishly. Finally, her anger was relieved, and things turned around.
Nothing has changed except that the upper part of the year has no appearance of the upper part and the lower part of the year has no appearance of the lower part of the year.
…
Iwahashi Shinichi went to Nakamori Akina's kitchen to see if there was anything that could be eaten that was within his cooking skills. She was usually taken care of by her, a master in the kitchen, and this time it was him who showed off some of his bachelor's cooking skills.
Even so, the bachelor's cooking skills are full of wisdom, and he is not at all afraid of the kitchen of Akina Nakamori, a master of the kitchen.
After using his housekeeping skills to cook something, Iwahashi Shin took off his apron and went to ask her to eat.
Akina Nakamori was huddled under the quilt, curled up in a ball and sleeping soundly. She had a high-intensity concert during the day, and she had a lot of mischief with him as soon as she got home. She must be exhausted.
Iwahashi Shinichi went over to take a look, and saw that she was sleeping soundly. He couldn't bear to wake her up, and he probably wouldn't wake up if she looked like this.
He went to eat by himself, but suddenly felt that eating alone was not interesting, so he stuffed a few mouthfuls into his mouth, opened her refrigerator, and drank some of her wine.
It looked like he was going to stay at her place tonight. However, his girlfriend was fast asleep, and Iwahashi Shinichi was at her house by himself, so he couldn't move around casually, so he was a bit bored.
While I felt bored, I also felt that it was valuable to chat with her about trivial daily life.
Before going to bed, Shinichi Iwahashi climbed onto the bed gently, pulled open a corner of the sheet and got in. Akina Nakamori was sleeping with her back to him, so he came closer and wrapped his body around her from behind.
"Alas." He sighed softly, wanting to tell her that he liked her very much, even more than before.
Although given his personality, he would still feel embarrassed to say such words.
Akina Nakamori knew nothing and fell into a deep sleep.
…
The next Monday, office worker Shinichi Iwahashi was back on track. Akina Nakamori, on the other hand, had three days off after this concert, so she could relax at home.
Iwahashi Shinichi occasionally stays overnight at Nakamori Akina's place. She has his work suit at home to change into, saving him a long journey home to change clothes.
After sleeping, Nakamori Akina's waist and legs were sore, and her face was wrinkled in the morning.
It was Iwahashi Shinichi who showed off his bachelor cooking skills again and made some breakfast that finally made her smile. It not only cheered her mood, but also soothed her hungry belly.
Seeing the way she was eating so much, Iwahashi Shinichi actually had the illusion that he actually had an unknown talent in cooking.
It wasn't until I took a bite that I realized that I was overthinking it.
"Then I'm leaving." Iwahashi Shinichi told her.
Nakamori Akina nodded and asked him: "Shinichi-kun, do you want to come over tonight?"
"I don't know." He wasn't sure. "If it's late, I'll go home directly."
She said "oh".
"It's a three-day holiday. Do you have any plans for Akina-san?" Shinichi Iwahashi asked her.
Nakamori Akina shook her head, "I don't have any plans yet. Anyway, let's tidy up the house first." After thinking about it, she stared at him and hesitated to speak.
"What do you want to say?" Iwahashi Shinichi guessed that she had something to say.
She pouted her lips for a while and said, "I'll clean up the room for you, okay?"
"Is it for this?" Iwahashi Shinichi laughed.
Nakamori Akina, however, had a serious face, "Isn't it okay for this?"
"Okay." He smiled, "You have to help me tidy up the room. It will be a big help."
"I'll even take a look under your bed," she threatened. Early in the morning, she began to attack Shinichi Iwahashi, "...true color!"
I always feel like the old score from yesterday has been overturned again.
"I'm sorry." Iwahashi Shinichi said.
"Don't apologize to me so seriously." Akina Nakamori made him feel uncomfortable, "I don't really blame you..."
"Then let's change it." Shinichi Iwahashi smiled, "Thank you for helping me. I'll show you the bottom of the bed too."
Hearing the last sentence, Akina Nakamori smiled, but she said with disgust, "Who wants to really watch it?"
Shinichi Iwahashi decided to let her do as he pleased. As he spoke, he took out the key to his home, handed it over, and joked, "Keep an eye on your house. You can only open the door when I ring the doorbell. Do you understand?"
"Got it~"
Nakamori Akina lengthened her voice, used her voice acting talent, and imitated the speech of a child - but this was 100% to mock Shinichi Iwahashi's old-fashioned way of speaking.
"I will take good care of the house and no one will open it except you, Shinichi Papa (papa)."
Iwahashi Shinichi's expression was as if he had been struck by lightning, "Don't scare me." If he really became "Shinichi's father", then things would be difficult to end.
"Hahaha!!"
Akina Nakamori made him laugh out loud at his reaction.
…
After leaving the house, Iwahashi Shinichi felt refreshed and happy.
This good mood lasted all day. In the afternoon, Watanabe Manyumi came over. When she saw him, she teased him sarcastically, "It looks like something good happened."
"Have it?"
"It doesn't hurt to listen to it," she joked, "If it's really a good thing, it will make me happy."
Iwahashi Shinichi smiled and did not answer the question, "Did you send the ORIGINAL LOVE song demo to Kenyin?"
"Sent it." Watanabe Manyumi didn't mind him changing the subject, "I also called Nozaki-kun and told him that I wanted to work with Akina-san on a project."
"Yeah." Iwahashi Shin nodded.
"I had a brief chat with Nozaki-kun on the phone. I heard that it was your idea, Nozaki-kun, and I'm really looking forward to it." Watanabe Manyumi said, her tone paused, "Of course, Akina-san's new single failed this time.
It also worked.”
"Shenyi-kun," her tone was joking, but her words were sincere, "there are quite a few people in the industry who regard you as a Midas touch."
"Spare me." Iwahashi Shinichi shook his head.
Last week, Akina Nakamori's new single lost to PRINCESS PRINCESS. As a newly released new song, it was defeated by a single released in its second week. The gap between the two is about 15,000 copies, so there is no room for loss.
No.
Following her is DREAMS COME TRUE.
If this continues, sooner or later, she will be surpassed by DREAMS COME TRUE.
Over the years, Kenyin's signature singer has been Akina Nakamori. Although Ishii Akemi, who beat her masterpiece "DESIRE - Passionate-" in 1986 to win the singles crown that year, is also a singer under Kenyin.
But after all, it is a one-stop shop that will be withdrawn when the weather gets hotter.
When Akina Nakamori was launched, it seemed that Kenyin showed its ability in promoting singers. But except for Akina Nakamori, there was no such long-term glory, which seems to illustrate another fact.
That is, Nakamori Akina's success was not due to Kenyin, who was still trying to cross the river by feeling the stones at that time.
Now, Akina Nakamori is starting to go downhill. As for Kenyin, they must be trying to find an opportunity to inject heat into her and take a second uphill climb.
Watanabe Manyumi called Nozaki Kenichiro. Although it didn't play into his mind, at least it provided an idea that could be tried and an opportunity to try.
Of course, whether it can be realized in the end depends on the attitude of Yanyin, Akina Nakamori herself, and Warner. All three parties are indispensable.
Not only that, the most important thing is Nakamori Akina’s own thoughts.
She holds the power of her own production. When it comes to record production, she is sometimes so willful that it causes headaches, and people from the agency have to apologize to the parties involved.
But even so, despite being so stubborn, no mistakes were made.
Although Kenyin is an agency, we have to admit Nakamori Akina's talent and admit that her success cannot be copied. One of the important reasons is that there will never be such a singer with such a strong opinion and accurate ideas.
Similarly, Yanyin, which has grown up to this day, is no longer the rookie firm that could be led by a mere idol. No newcomer would dare to do so, and no newcomer would be allowed to act so willfully.
"Nozaki-kun knew that I was also signing actors, and he still wanted to communicate with me." Watanabe Manyumi mentioned, "He also went to see "Kitchen" and praised our Inamura Izumi."
The movie "Kitchen" was released at the end of March, but Shinichi Iwahashi didn't go see it, and since it was a movie funded by Watanabe Manyumi & Associates, it was not convenient for him to get involved.
Listening to her talking about it now, it seems that the reputation has been good since it was released, and Izumi Inamura's presence in the movie has also attracted quite a lot of attention.
ZARD's new single became the theme song of "Kitchen", and the band also appeared in the movie as the hero and heroine's favorite band. The movie can gain good reputation and play a good role in promoting the band.
Watanabe Manyumi only briefly mentioned one or two words about the movie, and casually told Iwahashi Shinichi that Nozaki Kenichiro was currently focused on the actor department of the management office, and often thought about signing new actors and becoming famous.
"However, with Yanyin's energy, it is not difficult to recruit popular actors from other companies to open up the situation." After hearing this, Shinichi Iwahashi said casually.
With Yanyin backed by a consortium, it would be easy to reach out to other firms to recruit people.
"This is completely different from U-MIZ." Watanabe Manyumi laughed at herself for not getting an appointment from Kamai Sachiko's manager.
Iwahashi Shin nodded and agreed: "Indeed, U-MIZ can't compare."
"There's no need to go so far." Watanabe Wan Yumi accused him with a smile.
But this is the case. Backed by Watanabe Productions, Watanabe Mayumi’s U-MIZ must abide by the rules and cannot poach people...
Of course, accepting a star after his contract has been successfully concluded is another matter.
Listening carefully, it seems that Kenyin plans to shift the focus of the agency's business to actors. Not only that, Kenichiro Nozaki also plans to establish a good relationship with Watanabe Manyumi's U-MIZ.
This is how things are in the industry, there are opponents everywhere and friends everywhere.
"anyway."
Watanabe Manyumi looked at Iwahashi Shinichi, "The song you chose is really amazing."
"Um?"
She smiled and said, "Slimy."
Iwahashi Shinichi laughed and said to her, "Wanyumi-san's vision is so accurate." He sincerely praised her.
The song demo I sent to Yanyin was a song called "Kiss".
