Recently, in the entertainment world, it is obvious that the trend has changed. To be precise, the trend in the idol world has changed.
This change has both a glorious side and a decadent side.
The glamorous side is undoubtedly the killer of Kitten Club. After the popularity of the group quickly surged, Akimoto Yasushi began to break it into pieces. First, he asked Sonoko Kawai to come out to test the solo waters. The results were very good, and he even won the
Topping the charts once proved that not only was the group popular, but the individual members also had a lot of room to show their popularity.
So we let go and launched the sub-units and member solos in a big way. From the beginning of the year to now, the Kitty Club plus the sub-units have taken turns to sit at the top of the list. Except for those big-name idols, no one can stop them.
The unprecedented popularity of this amateur idol.
Akimoto Yasushi, a fat young man, also made a lot of money and became recognized as a golden bachelor and a diamond king in the industry.
However, in contrast to the splendor of the Kitten Club, is the decline of idols outside of the Kitten Club. In this era, it is considered a joke for idols to drop a billboard and hit nine out of ten girls.
In addition to the well-known idols who have established a stable reputation, there are countless girls who have no splash, but just follow this trend and dream of becoming idols.
The emergence of the Kitty Club has undoubtedly lowered the standard of the industry. However, as long as it is profitable, other companies will follow suit. In this way, girls with nothing outstanding will flood into the industry, bringing with them
The consequences can be imagined.
A large number of shoddy idols have flooded into the industry, and they are just waiting to die without splashing after their debut.
And now, Matsumoto Akiko has made a start, paving a new path for idols in addition to the original path. Even she, who has never been popular, is now becoming popular, maybe?
Girls who are confused about their own position and don't know what to do are just like those who entered the industry following the idol trend. Under the command of the company, they follow the trend again and try to be an artist, regardless of whether their own conditions are suitable.
To the outside world, idols gathering together to become entertainers is undoubtedly a way of "lowering one's self-esteem", which also makes hosts on the show no longer treat idols as carefully as before.
The industry has maintained order for more than ten years. After being broken by amateur idols, it has gone in an unprecedented direction.
But in the final analysis, what happened is not because of Akiko Matsumoto, nor can it be entirely blamed on the Kitten Club. The most fundamental reason is that there is something wrong with the creation of gods.
Human beings are human beings and cannot become gods. Once you forcefully erase human nature and replace it with divinity, sooner or later there will be backlash.
That night, Shinichi Iwahashi received a page from Okada Yukiko.
On April 8, he promised Okada Yukiko that he would keep in touch with her in the future. From then on, Okada Yukiko would page him every few days.
The frequency of contact between the two was not high. The most important reason was that Okada Yukiko had a very heavy workload. After a false alarm and returning to work, what she faced was still the same as before.
It may be said that there is no difference, but in fact many changes have taken place.
After walking through the gate of hell, under the guidance of Shinichi Iwahashi, she realized that she had seemed to be stuck in a corner and had to choose between 1 and 2, but she ignored that although there were various choices in life, it was by no means the same.
Multiple choice questions that can only be chosen once.
Life is so long, enough for her to explore the answers to every question.
Okada Yukiko's puzzlement that she couldn't get an answer, and her love that she still didn't quite understand, suddenly became less important.
"Even now, I still don't understand love."
"This matter is very profound and I don't understand it very well. Of course, it cannot be understood in a short while. It is precisely because of this that life is interesting and meaningful." Shinichi Iwahashi answered her.
"Right... So, I have to learn slowly. The same goes for work. I have to work hard."
However, Okada Yukiko, who is working hard now, is not trying to carry the burden of being Matsuda Seiko's successor, but has made plans to quit the entertainment industry after her contract expires.
She only told Shinichi Iwahashi about this matter, not even her own family members. Unmusic used the excuse of gas leak to cover up her suicide, but because there were neighbors who witnessed it, there was a follow-up
Her performance of covering her wrists led to widespread rumors that she had attempted suicide.
Although the majority of people refuted the rumors, some people still expressed doubts about it. Affected by this incident, the performance of the new single she released later was somewhat unsatisfactory.
Originally, after her last single achieved the best results since her debut, both the agency and the record company thought that her next single could take advantage of this momentum to achieve a new breakthrough, but in the end, something like this happened.
.
Affected by this negative news, her popularity will probably stop now. As for the successor of Seiko Matsuda, it is impossible to talk about it.
It is said that there were many voices of criticism at the office. However, they were all suppressed by Noburo Mizoguchi.
Okada Yukiko's suicide deeply stimulated this ace agent. He once began to doubt his own career. With a compensatory mentality, he tried his best to protect Okada Yukiko in the office.
Noburo Mizoguchi in the office protected her from the wind and rain, and Shinichi Iwahashi outside the office healed her spirit. Only then did Okada Yukiko gradually recover. Now, she can talk about her career and life calmly.
’s matter.
Iwahashi Shinichi advised her not to think of leaving the entertainment industry after her contract ends as a relief. If she still works with the mentality of desperately wanting to escape, the remaining time will still be torture. It is better to think about it the other way around and treat the remaining time during the contract period as
It is the countdown to the idol career experience.
"Iwahashi-san, today, when I went to dance practice, Mizoguchi-san brought a new person over in the dance studio." Okada Yukiko told him.
"Yeah?"
"Mizoguchi-san also specially introduced her to me... Her surname is Sakai, and her name is Noriko. She is a newcomer who was just signed." Okada Yukiko's tone contained a bit of complexity that she was not aware of.
Mizoguchi Noburo, who came here with Sakai Noriko, treated this little girl with the same attitude he treated Okada Yukiko. It is said that Sakai Noriko is now living in the president's house as she was when she first came to Beijing.
On the other end of the phone, when I heard Okada Yukiko mention this name, Iwahashi Shinichi felt that it sounded familiar. After thinking about it carefully, wasn't this the innocent goddess who was once the innocent goddess, and later the little bunny who was on the TV news for something?
It turns out that this girl works in the same company as Yukiko Okada.
