Daikuro Moki's anxiety had just emerged in his heart. Before he could get restless and wanted to get accurate information, Iwahashi Shinichi called him first.
As soon as they met, Iwahashi Shinichi directly informed her of the next arrangements without saying anything.
After the announcement of the establishment of the sub-label was issued, news spread that Keiko Utoku was preparing to debut. Several people from ZARD also packed their luggage, checked that their passports had not expired, and were about to go to Los Angeles to record a new album.
At this time, Iwahashi Shin called Daikuro Moki and arranged for her to follow him to Los Angeles. However, not as a harmonist, but as an assistant to the producer here, starting out and saving some money for record production.
experience.
Dai Heimoji is an excellent singer and songwriter, with a highly recognizable voice and a strong personal style. It will not be a problem for one person to take the lead alone.
The reason why Keiko Utoku is not arranged to form a band is because she and Sachiko Kamaike have similar images. If they both debut as the lead singers of the band, they will inevitably attract the same voices copied by the assembly line of the same company.
The reason why Daikoku Moki is not allowed to be the lead singer of the band is simply because it is not necessary. Rather than finding a few colleagues for her to form a "band style", it is better to give full play to her strong personal style.
Therefore, Shinichi Iwahashi believes that Daikuro Moki, a singer-songwriter, should learn record production and train her to be a multi-talented person.
On the contrary, Keiko Utoku needs help from others.
Keiko Utoku and Moki Daikoku have different styles, different plans for their debut routes, and different positioning for them. But both of them are important attempts by Shinichi Iwahashi to get involved in the production of female solo singers.
Although he failed to successfully promote solo singer Miwa-chan, Iwahashi Shinichi never gave up. Not only that, he also believed that the market for solo singers was promising.
In addition to trying out a female solo, I will also start working on a male solo in the future.
This time, Daikoku Moki first went to Los Angeles with the ZARD team to help with the band's recording. After that, she and the staff who followed her transferred to New York for a three-month short-term study abroad.
"During this period, the company began to form a team and start formulating your debut plan." Shinichi Iwahashi told Daikokumoki, "When you return from school, if you meet the criteria for debut, then we will arrange your debut."
"ah."
He finished speaking in one breath, but Dai Hei Moji couldn't react and was stunned for a moment.
On the way here, she was still thinking about whether she should try to ask Iwahashi Shinichi about her future plans after meeting her. As a result, before she could ask, Iwahashi Shinichi was caught off guard.
After coming back to his senses, Daikoku Moji nodded vigorously with a heavy heart, "Yes, Iwahashi-san."
Iwahashi Shinichi knew that Daikuro Moki was very ambitious, and the only female solo singers that the company was planning to promote now were her and Utoku Keiko. If Utoku Keiko was to make her debut, Daikoku Moki would definitely be unable to sit still.
Therefore, the first step was to announce Keiko Utoku's debut, and the second step was to keep up with Daikuro Moki's arrangements.
Previously, after saying hello to Watanabe Wan Yumi, Iwahashi Shinichi also directly informed Daikuro Moki Toru, "About your management appointment, the U-fan Z Watanabe-san is very interested. What do you think?"
How about next?"
Of course Daikuro Moki knows who Watanabe Mayumi is.
You have to sign with Watanabe-san's office, which means that the record deal will also be signed with GENZO headquarters. When Daikuro Maki, who was still a high school student, came to Tokyo to watch a music festival, Watanabe-san had the support behind him.
At that time, after watching the performance, Daikuro Maki decided to go to Beijing after graduating from high school to meet Iwahashi Shinichi-san.
Now, listening to Iwahashi Shinichi's arrangements, the feeling of my dream coming true becomes clearer.
She didn't have a second answer, "I'm very willing, Iwahashi-san."
…
I went to see Iwahashi Shinichi with everything on my mind, but in the end I didn't need to say a word of what I wanted to say. Iwahashi Shinichi had made arrangements early in the morning and never forgot her.
Not only that, following the arrangement, Iwahashi Shinichi had high expectations for her.
After meeting Shinichi Iwahashi, Daikuro Moki felt relaxed and light-footed. However, he didn't have a chance to say what he wanted to say, so he kept it in his stomach, feeling a little bit unhappy.
At this time, the existence of friends becomes extremely precious.
Ryoko and Kamiya, who had worked so hard for her to sign a contract with a record company, as well as BEING's musician Ikeda, were all people who surrounded her and could talk with her.
Although the experience of being introduced to BEING for an interview left a shadow in Daikuro Maki's heart, that experience allowed her to get to know Ikeda and Oda Tetsuro.
It can be considered a good thing among bad things.
To this day, Daikoku Moki doesn't have any ill feelings towards Nagato Daiyuki. When he thinks about what happened at that time, the only impression he has left is that he was as simple and crude as "an inexplicable old man".
After all, instead of joining BEING who derogated and ridiculed her, she chose GENZO who treated her sincerely and gently. Therefore, what kind of person Nagato Daiyuki is can only become a simple impression left in her heart, and it is impossible to be impressed by her again.
Pay more attention.
In front of Kamiya, Ryoko, and Ikeda, Daikuro Moki poured out all his previous anxiety and Iwahashi Shinichi's thoughtful arrangements.
Ryoko yelled, "Just say Iwahashi-san is a very good person, right?"
Kamiya also nodded in agreement, pretending to be serious, "After all, he is a recognized big shot in the underground music circle." No matter when, he can never change his habit of bragging in front of women and pretending to be serious.
Ryoko was not soft-spoken when he tried to make trouble, "The big shot is Iwahashi-san, not you Kamiya." Ryoko also wanted to laugh at Kamiya's change of heart by pointing out that Kamiya had tried his best to encourage Daikoku Moki to defect to BEING's strange Oji-san.
I was thinking about Dai Heimoji's feelings and didn't want to mention the unpleasant past events again.
Kamiya is still not convinced, "Compared to Iwahashi-san, how many people can be called big shots?... I heard that Iwahashi-san is a manager in the underground music circle. Maybe one day I will be in the underground music circle.
Found a great character."
"Then I wish you success." Liangzi's polite social rhetoric made people even more angry.
Kamiya let out a "嘁" and wanted to say something, "I also want to find another great character and recommend such a person to Iwahashi-san to make up for the loss to you regarding Moki-chan."
However, BEING musician Ikeda, who had tried his best to introduce Daikoku Moki, was also present. In order to avoid Ikeda's embarrassment, he couldn't say this out loud. He could only work hard in his heart, but he was defeated by Liangzi on the surface.
Daikuro Moji listened to his ears, and a thought came back to his mind: When will these two people get married?
Ikeda, who was sitting at the same table, laughed out loud while listening to the conversation between Ryoko and Kamiya.
However, Daikoku Moki didn't care about Nagato Daiyuki, Kamiya and Ryoko were bickering, and no one said "Being's President Nagato". It was Ikeda who mentioned this sentence first while the topic was being discussed.
"President Nagato".
"President Nagato is having a rough time these days, and the atmosphere in the company is quite tense."
Ikeda spread his hands, a little helpless, "From the gossip among the staff, it seems that some plan has been blocked. Now, Nagato-san is depressed, and everyone can only pretend to be stupid... A few days ago, President Nagato also
I had a quarrel with Oda-san in the office, and the clerk said that he seemed to blame Oda-san for something."
"Blame Oda-san?" Daikoku Maki was a little concerned.
Oda Tetsuro admired her, and the two of them had contact in private. When she heard that someone she admired as a senior brother was scolded by Nagato Daiyuki, she thought of Nagato Daiyuki's harsh words and worried about Oda Tetsuro.
"Actually, it's not that unusual." Ikeda smiled as if to lighten the atmosphere, "Oda-san is certainly talented as a musician. However, outside of music, everything is a mess, and it all depends on Nagato-san's help.
Manager. Those two are more like an elder brother and a younger brother than the president and employees, or partners."
In other words, it is the duty of an elder brother to love his younger brother and to teach his younger brother a lesson.
Liangzi found it boring, "If you can't accomplish your plan, then you just show off your power to the staff. That's nothing."
But that's how it is in Yiyantang's company. Everything revolves around Nagato Daiko, and his every move, word and deed is infinitely magnified.
…
In fact, Nagato Daiyuki had no intention of showing off his power in the company and venting his shame and anger at being sidelined.
It's just that he really can't be in a good mood these days. When he occasionally shows up at the company, he has a gloomy face. The employees don't know what he's planning secretly and they don't know what to do, so they don't want to get in trouble with him.
Nagato Daiyuki kept silent about the matter of seeking the power behind the Star Office in order to prevent changes. No matter what, he never expected that he would be given such a slap by Iwahashi Shinichi.
I was depressed for a while, until Star Office cooperated with GENZO to establish a sub-label, launched a new talent discovery plan, and announced it to the world through newspapers and TV news. The matter was completely settled, and Nagato Daiko calmed down.
We can no longer dwell on this matter.
The cooperation with Star Office failed, so I have to concentrate on thinking of new ways. BEING's specialty is producing bands, and now there is a band craze. If you want to join, the forces that want to get a piece of the pie will definitely not
few.
If it doesn't work out, go and get in touch with the record company, and follow the example of that naughty boy named Iwahashi, and discuss with the record company to jointly set up a sub-label, affiliated with the record company, and then slowly make plans.
Iwahashi Shinichi was so angry that he was so angry, but Iwahashi Shinichi was able to refine the techniques he used and use them to learn without any problems. This is Nagato Daiyuki.
After all, he is a person who worships the Southern Star, so he made a TUBE based on his idol.
As long as it can be successful, it doesn't matter whether it's plagiarism, reference, or assembly-line copying... Nagato Daiyuki has never been a musician. He has always been a Kansai businessman with a lot of business.
The most important thing is that we don’t know how long the band’s popularity will last. We missed the cooperation with Xingchen Agency. If we don’t quickly regroup and join the battle, by the time the band’s popularity is almost divided, BEING will completely lose the opportunity to rely on the band.
Chance of the wind taking off.
At that time, winning back the game from that naughty boy Iwahashi Shinichi would become even more impossible.
Star Office finished sending the draft to GENZO and went to cooperate with them. Nagato Daiyuki cheered up, listed the forces that could be contacted, and started to contact them one by one. He was very busy every day and drank one glass after another.
This evening was no exception.
In order to socialize, he changed three stores in a row and had a good time drinking. The staff who came with him put him in a taxi and went back to pick up Nagato Daiko.
As a result, President Nagato disappeared.
However, there was a familiar, clerk-looking person waiting there. He handed him his business card and told him, "President Su Fang from BURNING is here tonight and has invited Nagato-san to come up and have a chat."
Everyone knows the name of Shu Fang Ikuo, and the staff has no doubt that he is there.
…
A thick arm locked Nagato Daiyuki's throat tightly like a pliers. He grabbed the arm with both hands, trying to loosen it slightly so that he could breathe.
But that arm didn't move at all. Not only that, the more he pulled at it, the tighter it became.
Got stuck in the neck...
Nagato Daiyuki was so dizzy from holding back that he slapped the other person, trying to beg for mercy.
How can you imagine that for no reason, he suddenly suffered this fate, being held hostage by two strong little guys on the left and right. First, they choked him and almost lost his life. When he was still in shock, he was held up again.
On the third floor of the club.
Until it stopped outside the door of the most luxurious box in the store.
The door opened, and two young men walked in with Daiyuki Nagato on his back. He raised his eyelids, and his stomach suddenly shrank. The person sitting at the top was without a doubt Ikkio Suho, whom he had met once in the first month of the year.
"It is indeed Nagato-san." Zhou Fangyuxiong is approachable, as friendly as an old man farming.
Facing the person whose neck he almost broke, he could still be so nonchalant. Nagato Daiyuki shuddered. His throat was sore and itchy, and he couldn't hold it back, so he coughed several times.
It is 100% certain that the two guys who attacked him just now are Yakuza elements.
That naughty boy named Iwahashi was just trying to choke his neck on official business. However, the president Shu Fang in front of him could really strangle his neck.
Nagato Daiyuki was short and thin, and was used to using his brain. How often had he been treated with such violence?
He was shocked and frightened, remembering that he had resolutely rejected Baba Shunichi's recruitment. At that time, he had completely ignored that this president, who was born as a gangster and made his fortune with the support of Yakuza forces, could do anything.
Shufang Ikuo acted as if nothing had happened and didn't ask the two little guys what they had done to Nagato Daiyuki. After inviting Nagato Daiyuki to sit down, he said, "I didn't expect to meet Nagato-san here. What a coincidence."
Nagato Daiyuki reluctantly nodded, "Indeed..."
"If I had known that President Zhou Fang was here, no matter what," he coughed twice more, trying to be more decent, "I should have come to say hello to you instead of..."
Nagato Daiyuki didn't have the guts to say that he was kidnapped.
"Nagato-san said that, I'm very happy."
An easy-going smile appeared on Shufang Ikuo's face like an old farmer, "Before, I was still wondering if Nagato-san hated me."
Nagato Daiyuki did not dare to accept this sentence.
