Akina Nakamori also heard about Kikuchi Momo's move to Kenyin.
Although being an artist does not require you to clock in and report on time like ordinary office workers, Momoko Kikuchi is not an unknown newcomer. After the decision to move to Japan was made, Yanyin had to specially arrange press releases to publicize the matter.
It is impossible not to know about such movement.
But that's about it. The two people belong to different departments and are responsible for different teams. After Momo Kikuchi moved to Yanyin, the two sides have not met yet.
If we meet tonight, I must say hello.
Just now, Akina Nakamori saw Shinichi Iwahashi chatting lively with Momoko Kikuchi. She felt that it was a bit rude in the past, so she waited for Momoko Kikuchi to leave before walking over.
The two pretenders chatted casually in front of Ben, as if nothing had happened. What they said were all stage talk, but when Ben wasn't paying attention, Akina Nakamori boldly and cunningly rushed to him.
Wink your eyes.
Shinichi Iwahashi noticed her little moves, and his expression remained unchanged. He was calm and composed, and Akina Nakamori secretly felt displeased with it. As expected, when it comes to pretending, this guy is better.
In such an occasion, it is impossible to stand together and chat for too long. As they were talking, Watanabe Wan Yumi came over.
"Watanabe-san." Bowing master Omoto took the lead in greeting.
Watanabe Manyumi nodded and said hello to Nakamori Akina. Nakamori Akina patted her slowly and returned the courtesy politely.
"Long time no see, Akina-san." Watanabe Mayumi and Nakamori Akina said politely, "Everyone of our ORIGINAL LOVE, thank you for your kind care, Akina-san."
Akina Nakamori bowed to her, "The band wrote a great song, and I'm very happy to sing such a song."
Watanabe Manyumi glanced at Iwahashi Shinichi, and naturally looked back.
As soon as the single was released, Nakamori Akina had to partner with ORIGINAL LOVE to participate in a music show. Omoto supported her, "The collaborative single will be released next week. When that time comes, I would like to ask Watanabe-san to continue to take care of her."
"The band cherishes this opportunity..." Watanabe Manyumi replied.
The two started chatting. After a few words, Iwahashi Shinichi, the chief producer, couldn't avoid it and was pulled into the conversation. Nakamori Akina was listening, looking at the capable and capable Watanabe Wan Yumi for a while, and for a while looking at the manager.
Book.
I felt bored with the clichés that I was not interested in, and wanted to say goodbye and leave. I couldn't say anything, so I poked Shinichi Iwahashi with my eyes.
"In short," Iwahashi Shin half-joked, "from my standpoint, both Akina-san and Watanabe-san need to take care of each other in the future."
When Watanabe Wan Yumi heard what he said, she thought of something and smiled. After saying a few polite words, she said goodbye and walked away. Iwahashi Shinichi, who came with her partner, continued to act with her.
The two of them took a step away first.
Walking a little further away, Watanabe Manyumi said, "What I just said."
"Um?"
She said sarcastically, "It's like stepping on two boats."
"..."
Iwahashi Shinichi was speechless. He paused and said, "To put it this way, I stepped on more than two boats." This plan is basically a chain of iron chains.
"Yes." Watanabe Manyumi said lightly.
But the duller the reaction, the more indescribable the feeling of being choked. However, she stopped clicking and did not intend to go too far. She smiled slightly and changed the topic.
The two of them walked away for a while and exchanged greetings with their familiar TV station counterpart.
…
Iwahashi Shinichi and Watanabe Manyumi continued to act together. Nakamori Akina looked at their backs, pouted, and muttered, "They look quite impressive..."
That Watanabe-san must have done it on purpose again just now.
Watanabe Manyumi's timely farewell reminded Nakamori Akina of the discussion meeting. The more she resisted, the more Watanabe-san came to her rescue and took care of her matter calmly.
Watanabe Manyumi has good intentions, and Nakamori Akina certainly knows it. However, even though he is clearly doing something to help her, it subtly gives Nakamori Akina the feeling that Watanabe-san is playing a trick on others.
Seeing how clumsy she is, that Watanabe-san must be feeling happy in his heart...
Nakamori Akina was thinking about something, and she heard Omoto calling her, "What is Akina-chan talking about?"
She suddenly came back to her senses and said, "Omoto-san must have heard wrongly."
Omoto didn't care what Akina Nakamori's answer was and continued to take her with him. During this period, some people took the initiative to say hello to Akina Nakamori, and there were also people who needed Akina Nakamori to come forward and greet her.
Akina Nakamori neither adapts nor likes social situations, but behaves appropriately.
...It doesn't matter if she is not capable or graceful. She felt good about herself while responding to greetings.
Tonight, Nakamori Akina met Ishii Akemi from the same agency. When Ishii Akemi became famous with "CHA-CHA-CHA", the two often met when participating in the show. Senior sisters and junior sisters took care of each other.
However, Ishii Akemi's popularity comes and goes quickly, and it will be difficult to share the same stage with her in the future. Privately, people who have no friendship outside of work can only "see each other for a long time" occasionally.
After wandering around, the manager of the office brought Momoko Kikuchi to Akina Nakamori.
"Hello, Akina-san." Momoko Kikuchi greeted her proactively. She debuted a few years later than Akina Nakamori, so she is a junior in terms of both her acting age and her seniority in the agency.
Momo Kikuchi, who is soft and kind, like a cute sister, makes Nakamori Akina fall in love with her at first glance. Previously, the two of them have been on the same stage many times in the show, but because they belong to different camps, neither one can
I will communicate more. Now that I am a colleague in a firm, it is completely different.
Nakamori Akina happily welcomed, "Hello."
She welcomed Momoko Kikuchi, and even though Omoto knew the inside story, she felt a little pity for Akina Nakamori. If she was interested in acting in a TV series, Kenin would definitely support her instead of targeting Momoko Kikuchi.
The person who introduced Kikuchi Momoko to Kenyin was Shinichi Iwahashi.
Akina Nakamori didn't know about this matter, but Omoto had heard it mentioned by colleagues in the office. Just now, Omoto had watched Shinichi Iwahashi and Momoko Kikuchi chatting happily.
I don’t know how these two people got connected. Omoto admires Shinichi Iwahashi, this young producer is very secretive.
Omoto thought to himself as he greeted the manager in charge of Kikuchi Momoko.
The atmosphere between Nakamori Akina and Kikuchi Momo is harmonious. Looking at the ignorant, innocent and charming Kikuchi Momo subtly arouses the overflowing love of Nakamori Akina, a shopping street child.
However, Kikuchi Momo is generous and not squeamish. She has a slight contrast with her appearance and has a good personality.
…
After leaving the venue, Shinichi Iwahashi discussed with Watanabe Manyumi to find a place to sit and have a rest. Such a suggestion at this time was tacitly understood by the two of them.
Watanabe Manyumi agreed, and Iwahashi Shinichi got into her car.
The emotionless driver gave him another ride after a long absence. On the other side, the emotional driver followed him not far or near.
Watanabe Manyumi made up her mind that as long as Iwahashi Shinichi didn't talk about how to cooperate next, she would never mention it.
This idea is obvious. Iwahashi Shinichi is not a fool. Tonight, in front of Watanabe Mayumi, he told Mr. Nozaki that he wanted to cooperate with Nakamori Akina in the future. It was simply because he had made up his mind that he would not use THE
BLUE HEARTS's manager made an appointment with Yanyin.
Yanyin's future is limitless, and he is definitely someone worth making friends with. However, we can introduce famous actors that Yanyin needs right now to them, or we can work with Yanyin to produce singers, but for this firm that is backed by a consortium,
He said that if you cooperate by giving them money trees, you will only be rejected by the other party.
When it comes to cooperation, once you make a fool of yourself, you don't know how much effort it will take to repair it.
"Before,"
Iwahashi Shinichi broke the silence, "How did BEING and Xingchen Office get involved before? Does Wan Yumi-san have any clues?"
"I found out some details," Watanabe Manyumi replied.
She told Shinichi Iwahashi the information she asked about. Daiyuki Nagato of BEING was seeking support from the investors behind Star Office to establish a joint venture record company.
"So, when selecting harmonists for the theme song of "Chibi Maruko-chan" this time, Nagato-san got help from the stars." Watanabe Manyumi said.
Iwahashi Shin nodded and couldn't help but smile.
"What are you laughing at?" Watanabe Wan Yumi was curious.
He laughed and answered, "I just thought that if the lead singer hadn't been selected from the models of the Star Office, now, maybe Puchi or Utoku would have a chance to be selected as the harmony team of the Nagato-san group."
"Indeed." Watanabe Manyumi also started to find it interesting.
After they finished joking, the two of them fell into silence. But they didn't have nothing to say. After joking, Iwahashi Shinichi and she both guessed one thing from the movements of Nagato Daiko and Xingchen Office.
How well the theme song of "Chibi Maruko-chan" sells will determine whether the investor behind Star Office will cooperate with Nagato Daiko.
Shinichi Iwahashi pushed the boat forward and asked Nagato Daiyuki to contribute more people and efforts. Nagato Daiyuki did not take action, but instead used this theme song as a gambling chip.
Once the single is released, GENZO, who is responsible for the distribution, is also responsible for the promotion.
GENZO cannot be at odds with its own interests and will definitely do its best. Nagato Daiko also borrowed his strength to pave the way for him to set up his own record company.
After all, he has been a veteran for more than ten years, so he cannot be helpless and admit nothing.
"It's not wrong to consider it this way..." Watanabe Wan Yumi lowered her head, spread her palms, and looked at her palm prints, "But Nagato-san's fate is not in her own hands."
She tilted her head slightly, glanced at Shinichi Iwahashi's knees, then pulled it back, clenching her fist slightly, "GENZO decides when the single of the theme song will be released."
Watanabe Manyumi spoke up.
Iwahashi Shinichi listened and said, "That's what happened." Nagato Daiyuki's abacus was correct, but the switch was not in his own hands.
Of course, considering the interests of all parties, Shinichi Iwahashi, the person holding the switch, cannot deliberately delay the release of this single in order to cause trouble for Nagato Daiyuki. After all, the original disc rights of the single are with
Fuji TV. From this point of view, Nagato Daiyuki also made careful calculations, and it was not all a gamble.
"Star Office currently holds the agency contract between ZARD and Utoku Keiko, and the cooperative relationship with us is relatively good at the moment." Iwahashi Shinichi calculated.
However, if the investor behind Xingchen Office establishes a joint record company with BEING, then BEING is a brother company of Xingchen Office, and resources will definitely flow to BEING.
At that time, Xingchen Office will inevitably terminate its cooperation with GENZO.
GENZO and Japan Animation Production Company are brother companies. Because of this relationship, Nagato Daiko was stuck. Now, Nagato Daiko is waiting for this to happen again.
As soon as the new record company opened, the path for ZARD and Keiko Utoku was narrowed by half. Although it would not take away all the resources - ZARD made a lot of money after all, it was difficult to get the treatment of direct descendants.
"I seem to have guessed why Nagato-san doesn't want to interact with you anymore." At this time, Watanabe Wan Yumi did not forget to make a joke first.
Iwahashi Shinichi shook his head and said with a smile: "Please don't say anything sarcastic yet."
"I can't say sarcastic things about myself." Watanabe Mayumi said with ease. Of course, this statement is absolutely true. She and Iwahashi Shinichi walked side by side, and both suffered losses.
It would be absolutely unbearable to have Nagato Daiko get stuck in his neck. It is a bit difficult to only make a profit without suffering a loss.
However, if you foresee that you may suffer a loss, you may be able to reverse it.
"Don't forget, the switch is in our hands." Shinichi Iwahashi was not in a heavy mood, "We have the final say on when the single will be released and how it will be released. When Nagato-san can get the tickets is also the decision.
We have the final say.”
Watanabe Wan Yumi glanced at him and said, "I seem to have an idea."
"We can't discuss the idea yet." Iwahashi Shinichi paused, "But I can always come up with a way to disrupt the situation."
It dismantled Nagato Daiyuki and made his plan to become a brother company with Star Office come to nothing.
Iwahashi Shinichi didn't mean to go against Nagato Daiyuki. GENZO is now involved a lot with the Star Office, and ZARD is at a critical period. The next two or three years will be crucial and nothing can go wrong. Utoku Keiko is even more important.
Debut soon.
In addition, BEING is a veteran in producing bands. As soon as the record company was established, it was an absolute head-on opponent. Iwahashi Shinichi does not think that having opponents is a bad thing. On the contrary, competition makes it more lively. However, you cannot be stuck.
While holding your neck, confront your competitors.
Therefore, this time, we must find a way to deal with Nagato Daiyuki and protect our own interests.
"If we want to destroy him, we will either make Nagato-san lose his bargaining chip, or make the investors of Star Firm lose interest in him..." Shinichi Iwahashi spoke out the thoughts that came to his mind one by one.
Anyway, the emotionless driver drove silently, while Watanabe Wan Yumi was waiting to hear these thoughts.
"Or..." Iwahashi Shinichi paused.
Watanabe Wan Yumi immediately guessed, "Let's deepen our cooperation with Star Office."
Let investing in BEING become a dispensable thing, and the effort will outweigh the return.
