Akina Nakamori and Shinichi Iwahashi have never really had a fight since they started dating.
Usually everyone is busy with their own affairs, and when they get together less and more apart, I think that he is thinking too much, and I can't say enough good things when they meet. Occasionally, if there is a little awkwardness, Iwahashi Shinichi can always find a way to resolve it at the time.
Next to the steady and calm Shinichi Iwahashi, Akina Nakamori was like a child who had taken off her shoes, stretching her feet freely and unpreparedly.
It was the first time that we had a quarrel like this and even scolded him for being "so noisy!"
This first time happened when we were working together. It was the cooperation that she had been looking forward to for a long time, and it was also the first time she worked with him. As a result, there were difficulties at the beginning.
Now, we need to resolve both the quarrel and the work conflict. Nakamori Akina is confused, but she always feels that these two things are actually the same thing. But they cannot be simply classified as one thing.
When she really started working with him, Nakamori Akina realized that her imagination of "cooperating with Iwahashi Shinichi" seemed too good. Iwahashi Shinichi's strength at work was beyond her expectation. And she had always been very optimistic about it.
Iwahashi Shinichi's imagination seemed to be wrong.
Or maybe, it was a gentle and delicate interaction, and there was no chance of discovering this matter.
There was a quarrel over the recording, and Nakamori Akina was angry and aggrieved at the time, and later became annoyed and frustrated. But just like that, when they were saying goodbye, Iwahashi Shinichi came up to her and said "see you next time".
After hearing him say the secret code that only two people knew, Nakamori Akina actually breathed a sigh of relief.
Actually, if you think about it, the quarrel was because of disagreements about work, and nothing else. However, Shinichi Iwahashi and Akina Nakamori had different feelings about this single.
For Shinichi Iwahashi, "cooperation" has been achieved by sending the plan. The next step is to consider how to carry out the plan well.
But in Nakamori Akina's heart, the process of making songs with him is the most important.
However, Shinichi Iwahashi said, "If this single became Akina Nakamori's solo show, it would lose its meaning." Thinking of this sentence, Akina Nakamori felt uncomfortable.
The two people had different "meanings" for this single. Thinking of his words, Akina Nakamori not only felt rejected by him, but also felt that he was inconsiderate of her in this matter.
Nakamori Akina was not disappointed because she saw another side of Iwahashi Shinichi. However, despite being frustrated and annoyed, she couldn't help but think about things. From how to proceed with the next cooperation, to what she would do outside of work.
, what should we do if such differences arise on other matters?
Since the beginning of their relationship, Nakamori Akina has never thought about this item in her mind about her future with him.
Nakamori Akina has a little head, and it's okay when she doesn't think about anything. Once she started thinking about it, she unknowingly got into trouble.
After leaving the recording studio and heading to the next place of work, she felt gloomy and thought about things over and over again.
Just now, she scolded the producer in the recording studio. Now seeing her stern face, neither the boss nor the assistant dared to talk to her and get into trouble.
Omoto was secretly glad that fortunately Iwahashi Shinichi had a good temper and could tolerate the willful Taopusida without any conflicts in the recording studio. At the same time, he was thankful, but at the same time he was worried, not knowing how to proceed with the next recording session.
As long as no one compromises, the quarrel will continue. At that time, you will inevitably have to bow and apologize for Akina Nakamori.
The assistant's mood was even more complicated. Looking at Akina Nakamori's gloomy face, she was also surprised that Akina-san and producer Iwahashi were quarreling. For a while, she wondered how these two people would solve the problem, and for a while, she wondered if it was actually them.
Not that kind of relationship?
However, if it wasn't for that kind of relationship, why would you wear the skirt belt on your hand to go to the concert?
When she thought of the skirt belt, the assistant quickly stopped and stopped thinking about it.
If I thought about it further, I would have accidentally guessed the origin of the tie on Akina-san's waist on the day of the concert.
The little assistant quickly read the assistant manual silently and put away any excess curiosity.
"Mingcai Jiang, it will be here soon." At this time, Oben reminded.
His tone was tactful, "Please come on."
Of course, professionally, there is no need to worry about Akina Nakamori. After changing the workplace, the quarrel with the producer just now was put aside. She was full of energy and went all out.
After finishing work, she checked her pager and saw a message from Shinichi Iwahashi.
When leaving the recording studio, he said "see you next time", and Akina Nakamori herself also replied "see you next time".
…
"Iwahashi-san seems to be in a bad mood."
Nanno Yoko looked at his face and whispered.
Asking her to say that, Iwahashi Shinichi responded as if nothing had happened: "Yes?"
"Am I talking too much?"
Minamino Yoko was a little embarrassed that she had crossed the line. Thanks to Okada Yukiko, the two of them were very familiar with each other. After talking about it and working together for a while, they became familiar with each other.
Usually, during the breaks at work, we would chat for a while.
On this day, Shinichi Iwahashi met with Nakamori Akina during the day to record a recording, but was choked by her. In the evening, he came to see Minamino Yoko again.
Minamino Yoko's part has almost been completed, and there is only a little bit left that needs to be re-recorded. Today I will re-record this time, and the recording studio session will come to an end. After that, Iwahashi Shinichi will have almost no chance to contact her again.
As for choreographing dances and promoting songs, it has nothing to do with him.
Unlike the tit-for-tat quarrel with Akina Nakamori, the atmosphere here was calm and natural. During the production of the song, Iwahashi Shinichi had all the power, and all three girls were at his disposal. After the only shortcoming, Fuyumi Sakamoto, found the status, the progress was rapid and smooth.
.
It's not like today's recording session with Akina Nakamori, where she only had to pounce on me.
However, in the recording studio, you must restrain communication and disputes. It is not fun to quarrel, and you cannot say what is on your mind.
After leaving Warner's recording studio, Shinichi Iwahashi thought about it later and felt that his attitude towards her just now was too tough.
He looked at Minano Yoko, who was embarrassed for talking too much, and changed the subject, "As of today, Yoko, your recording part is all over."
Nanno Yoko nodded slightly and smiled at him, "Thank you for taking care of me during this time. Thank you."
She really means it.
Even though Matsuda Seiko suddenly attacked and her independent plan was thrown into chaos, during this period, she was able to take a breather in Iwahashi Shinichi's recording studio, which made Minamino Yoko feel grateful for his invitation.
But when he heard her thank you, Iwahashi Shinichi's already unhappy mood became even more unhappy.
The last time I heard Minamino Yoko say "thank you", it was his invitation that was unintentional and prompted Sony to take over her independence. Now, Matsuda Seiko seized the opportunity to rush out and ruined Minamino Yoko's independence plan.
Hearing her say "thank you" again reminded me of how energetic she looked when she said "thank you" to him last time.
"Yoko."
Shinichi Iwahashi asked her, "What are your plans now regarding the contract?"
This is the first time since they have been working together that her contract dispute has been mentioned so straightforwardly. Although both parties were tacitly aware of it, Minamino Yoko was still stunned for a moment when she was suddenly asked.
After reacting for a while, he smiled and said, "I plan to think of another way."
Her smile didn't look forced at all. From this smile, she seemed to see her tenacious character.
If Sony gives up accepting Minamino Yoko, she will have only two options in the future. Either she can be independent and set up a personal agency, or she can go back and bow her head to Mizukura Junichi and continue to stay.
However, if you don’t have a backer and are banned by the Music Association, then setting up a private practice is no different than waiting for death.
But now, Matsuda Seiko's action has cut off the possibility of reconciliation between Minami Yoko and Mizukura Junichi. Now, even if Mizukura Jun himself is willing to reconcile with her, Yinxie, who is waiting to scare the monkey, will not let him go.
Minamino Yoko.
When the Music Association was first established, it was claimed to be an alliance to prevent unfair competition. The various agencies that joined agreed to prohibit poaching from each other and prohibit accepting artists who had not satisfactorily terminated their contracts with the original agencies.
Later, as expected, it became an organization where offices joined together to exploit artists.
"If," Minamino Yoko looked at Shinichi Iwahashi and whispered, "if it really comes to a point where it can't be ended, I will give up on terminating the contract."
Sony, on the other hand, has decided to protect Seiko Matsuda and will withdraw its protection from Yoko Minamino. Not only that, in order to sell off the Music Association's face, they may even persuade her to apologize to Shunichi Mizukura...
Without being able to help her become independent, if Yoko Minamino returns to Shunichi Mizukura, Sony can still keep this cash cow.
As soon as Iwahashi Shin heard her say she gave up on terminating the contract, he could guess what happened next.
But there is no way to say whether it is right or wrong. I can only say that this development is expected. The sacrifice of a young idol is the least stressful.
and.
Sony persuaded Minamino Yoko to go back and apologize to Mizukura Shunichi. One of the reasons was that it would not affect the planned album. In order not to ruin the entire project because of her contract dispute and offend the entire industry.
Not long ago, I got an independent opportunity because I was invited to participate in this project album. Not long after that, this project album suddenly turned into a reason to coerce Minamino Yoko to bow her head.
Minamino Yoko looked at Iwahashi Shinichi and couldn't tell him that such a thing had happened.
After hearing so much about Shinichi Iwahashi from Yukiko Okada, Minamino Yoko knew that this man was gentle and empathetic. The situation was almost a dead end, and if Shinichi Iwahashi knew about it, it would only injure him.
troubles and even self-blame.
"I want to listen to the recording again. Is that okay? Iwahashi-san." Minamino Yoko said.
Iwahashi Shinichi also felt that the topic was heavy, so he stood up, walked to the console, and prepared it for her. The amplifier equipment was used, and a brisk song sounded in the recording studio.
Minamino Yoko stood behind Shinichi Iwahashi, looking at his and her own shadow reflected on the soundproof glass. Shinichi Iwahashi lowered his head and was busy operating the console. She listened to her own singing in silence.
"Yoko, your performance is impeccable." Iwahashi Shinichi praised her.
After hearing this, Nanno Yoko felt happy, smiled and said to him: "Thank you."
The evening recording lasted about two hours, and when it was all over, it was not too late. Iwahashi Shinichi thanked Minamino Yoko and said goodbye.
"Thank you for your care during this period of time." Minamino Yoko also bowed to him.
Shinichi Iwahashi walked her to the door of the recording studio. He looked around and said, "Where is your manager?"
"The recording is over. I only have to record TV Tokyo's variety show at nine o'clock tonight. I have plenty of time and we are all in Tokyo, so I came alone. However, after work is over in the evening, my manager Sang will pick me up." Nanno
Yoko told him.
Iwahashi Shin nodded.
"Then, I'll take my leave." Nanno Yoko said.
Iwahashi Shinichi looked at his watch and suddenly invited her, "If you don't mind, can we have a quick meal together? I happen to be hungry too."
"Huh?" Nanno Yoko reacted and nodded.
The two people left the recording studio and found a nearby restaurant to eat.
At this time, Iwahashi Shinichi was hungry, and Minamino Yoko also felt empty in her stomach. However, since it was the first time to eat alone, she still couldn't let go, so she ate quite reservedly.
"I heard Yukiko mention that Tokura-san made investments in your name. Is this true?"
Iwahashi Shinichi suddenly spoke, which startled Minano Yoko. Unexpectedly, he suddenly mentioned this matter, and his eyes widened for a moment.
During this period of cooperation, this was the first time I saw her so panicked.
"Although I'm a little embarrassed about Yukiko." Iwahashi Shinichi looked at her reaction and smiled, "I told you what she told me about you in front of you."
Nanno Yoko lowered his head and smiled softly.
Anyway, Okada Yukiko couldn't hide her words all day long.
"So," Shinichi Iwahashi said, "in order to prevent Yukiko from finding out about it later and blaming me for being lax, I must not let her know what I am saying now."
Nanno Yoko heard the hidden meaning of his words, looked at him, and nodded slowly.
If Iwahashi Shinichi could guess what happened in the middle and what role he played in this planned album, he would no longer be able to sit idly by and watch this happen.
Maybe we can't let her terminate the contract smoothly and continue to develop like a fish in the industry, but at least we can help her find a relatively comfortable and easy path in this one-or-nothing situation.
…
"I have something else to do next, so please forgive me for not sending you to the TV station." Iwahashi Shinichi said.
Moreover, sending her to the TV station would be too conspicuous. If she was photographed by the reporters standing around, she would be in trouble.
After finishing the meal, the two said goodbye.
At the dinner table, Iwahashi Shinichi asked a lot about Mizukura Shunichi using Minamino Yoko to invest. Minamino Yoko answered truthfully, but she couldn't guess what the use of his inquiries was.
After Iwahashi Shinichi inquired about these matters, he said nothing more. Minamino Yoko was even less able to guess.
"Thank you very much for your hospitality." She bowed again in greeting.
Tonight’s dinner is hosted by Shinichi Iwahashi.
After Minamino Yoko left, Iwahashi Shinichi also left the restaurant. Back in the car, he called Nakamori Akina. Tonight, I had to put aside other things and go see her.
Otherwise, her awkwardness would get bigger and bigger overnight, like dough growing bigger and bigger.
…
After receiving the call back, Iwahashi Shinichi went to Nakamori Akina's place.
Nakamori Akina was waiting at the entrance to open the door for him. Iwahashi Shinichi stepped in, familiar with the way, changed his shoes, walked up to the entrance, and looked at her face.
