Iwahashi Shinichi and Saito Yuki met, which is unexpected. It can only be said that interpersonal relationships in the industry are like this. Looking at people who are incompatible with each other, they may have met somewhere and they are old acquaintances.
On the other hand, members of the same group may look at each other in disgust and hold their noses while doing business on stage.
Iwahashi Shinichi really couldn't remember when he had seen Yuki Saito in Karuizawa, but seeing how certain she was, he felt confused, maybe he had actually seen her but had forgotten about it.
He had gone to Karuizawa many times to attend social events in the past year, and he might have actually met her in person.
But even if Karuizawa had really met, he and Saito Yuki only met each other and had little friendship.
However, the closeness Saito Yuki showed when talking about Iwahashi Shinichi gave people the impression that the two of them were drinking buddies who had at least drank together several times.
Although Shinichi Iwahashi admitted to himself that he was definitely not that familiar with her.
Similarly, Saito Yuki, a Mormon believer, adheres to the precepts and not only does not smoke or drink, but also does not touch tea and coffee. If you want to be a drinking buddy with her, I am afraid it can only be a "drunkard".
Not in wine”.
However, "Shinichi Iwahashi is a friend of Yuki Saito." Knowing this, Yutaka Ozaki, who was originally somewhat distant from him, became more natural and close to him.
Like a puppy that had lost its guard, it also leaned towards Iwahashi Shinichi and sniffed.
A well-rounded man in black is worthy of respect for Ozaki Yutaka, but he is afraid of dating him and feels that he is not the same person. However, such a person is Saito Yuki's friend.
Because I know Saito Yuki, I feel relaxed in front of her, and I even feel goodwill toward people who can become friends with her. The two people who were already similar in age now feel like they are the same age.
To be precise, in Ozaki Yutaka's eyes, he finally had the real feeling that Iwahashi Shinichi and him were of the same age.
People who think this way seem quite naive. But Yutaka Ozaki is such a person. Yuki Saito's kindness seems to be confusing to Shinichi Iwahashi, but it has narrowed the distance between him and Yutaka Ozaki.
Yuki Saito took his time and watched Yutaka Ozaki chatting with Shinichi Iwahashi. She reached for the music score on the table and said, "Toyo-kun, can I read this?"
I don't mind being in front of outsiders at all.
It was as if the two of them were a blessed golden child. If Yutaka Ozaki had not already had a wife and children, the popular male singer and actress were both handsome and pretty, so they were indeed a good match.
Of course, as long as it doesn't affect work, outsiders won't mind, nor will they care that married Yutaka Ozaki has a woman who is not his wife next to him.
People who really mind and care will not appear here.
Yuki Saito glanced at Shinichi Iwahashi, who was chatting with Ozaki Yutaka.
Ozaki Yutaka, who had previously kept a distance from Shinichi Iwahashi, put aside his preconceptions, and the two chatted comfortably.
It's not so much that she showed her closeness to Shinichi Iwahashi because she had any extra kindness towards him. It's better to say that she had a little extra curiosity about the producer, so she took advantage of the situation and showed some kindness that he couldn't refuse.
In front of so many people, she acted like Iwahashi Shinichi's friend, and Iwahashi Shinichi could only accept it.
Last time, in Karuizawa, Yuki Saito discovered early that Shinichi Iwahashi appeared on the location of the show. After the location ended, Akina Nakamori went to look for him, and the two of them left together.
Last year, Iwahashi Shinichi invited Akina Nakamori to produce the project.
If there is any relationship between these two people, the release of "Kiss" would be intriguing.
Yuki Saito found it interesting and was very interested in this young producer. Men who are liked by women are charming, and men who have secrets are even more attractive. She thinks so from the bottom of her heart.
If he hadn't seen Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina walking away together, Saito Yuki wouldn't even be interested in looking at him.
Yutaka Ozaki talked to Shinichi Iwahashi about the album he was producing, "The theme is 'birth'. After Yuya-kun was born, it made me think about many things that I had not thought about in the past. It feels like this is an album that makes me reborn."
Yuki Saito was here, and he naturally talked about his son who was less than one year old. Similarly, Yuki Saito, who was looking down at the music score, didn't mind listening to him talk about his family at all.
After hearing what he said, Shinichi Iwahashi returned the favor and invited Yutaka Ozaki to listen to ZARD's recording. Yuki Saito naturally followed, as if nothing had happened and took it for granted, comparable to Yoko Ono knitting a sweater in the recording studio.
In the recording room at Yutaka Ozaki's side, Yuki Saito had nothing to do with herself. On the contrary, when she arrived at ZARD's side, she became much livelier. Perhaps it was because the female lead singer of the band was present.
However, Saito Yuki felt that compared to the female lead singer, among the staff who followed the band, the young woman who was so good-looking that she could be an actress attracted more attention. It was not surprising that the band's lead singer should be a beauty. But the accompanying
The staff are so outstanding, which makes it special.
Seeing two beauties in a row makes people think that this Iwahashi-san is a member of the Appearance Association.
Saito Yuki's curiosity about ZARD is actually also his curiosity about Iwahashi Shinichi.
It doesn't matter what Yutaka Ozaki's reputation is among the public. His talent as a musician is recognized by many in the industry. The people at ZARD also think he is an excellent musician.
Previously, the two parties did not disturb each other, but now, Iwahashi Shinichi invited him over, and all three musicians expressed their welcome. The lead singer, Sachiko Kamaike, was still a student when she first heard Ozaki Yutaka's songs. Now she has the opportunity to listen to them when she was a student.
The creators of the songs sat together and exchanged music, which made her nervous and excited at the same time.
In addition, there is also such an incredible feeling. When I was studying at Junior College and working as an office worker in a real estate company, I never imagined that one day I would sit around a recording studio and talk about music with big-name musicians.
Thinking like this made her feel a little inferior, feeling that she was the least talented and least knowledgeable among the people here.
However, after a few beats, we talked about ZARD's lyrics. Ozaki Yutaka praised Kamai Sachiko's well-written lyrics, and Iwahashi Shinichi talked to him about the world view constructed in Kamai Sachiko's lyrics.
When chatting about her lyrics, Kamaike Sachiko straightened up and became serious. Rather than forgetting her inferiority complex, she realized that she still had a lot to learn, so she consciously listened to her own producers and big-name singer-songwriters.
Talk about composing lyrics.
Thanks to Yuki Saito, Shinichi Iwahashi and Yutaka Ozaki, two people who were just acquaintances at first, have become much closer. They even agreed to meet and chat again after returning to Tokyo. They can also talk about music.
, it’s better just to drink.
Saito Yuki's indescribable kindness, and the sight of Karuizawa that he remembered from nowhere, were not worth keeping in mind for Shinichi Iwahashi.
On the contrary, I made an agreement with Yutaka Ozaki to meet again when he returned to Tokyo, and asked him to keep it in mind and wait to fulfill it later.
Genius musicians can interest people at any time.
…
The next day, Shinichi Iwahashi finished his business trip and set off back to Tokyo. He would stay at ZARD for another two or three days.
Not only that, Iwahashi Shinichi, who was busy with business, also leisurely told the band members, "The schedule in Tokyo is not that tight. After work is over, if you want to stay for a few more days for free activities, that's okay... but don't stay too long."
Long."
Kamachi Sachiko heard his tolerant words in her ears, and her heart felt warm, thinking that these words were meant for her.
It’s been more than a year since their debut, and it’s the first time they’ve gone abroad to record, plus shoot and travel at their own expense. Among the members of ZARD, the happiest person is none other than Sachiko Kamaiike.
When I was a student, I dreamed of having a job that would allow me to travel around the world. Later, I dreamed of becoming a singer. Now, the two dreams have come together and have become a reality.
He selected her from a group of models and gave her a globe. The person who made her dream come true was Iwahashi Shinichi.
Kamaike Sachiko was full of things she wanted to say to Iwahashi Shinichi. Although there were thousands of words, in fact, she was just grateful. But until Iwahashi Shinichi left, she didn't even talk to him about anything other than work.
It's not just a lack of opportunity.
There were a lot of things she wanted to say, but Kamaike Sachiko didn't say a word to Iwahashi Shinichi, but instead told Akamatsu Haruko all of them.
Apart from recording, the members also have free time to do their own activities.
Akamatsu Haruko came as a staff member and was also responsible for scheduling. When the members were free to move around, she was busy. In the past few days, Iwahashi Shinichi came over for a business trip, and Akamatsu Haruko was also called by him to help.
Because of their different identities, although the two girls never looked up or down, they rarely acted together.
On weekdays, the one who hangs out with Kamai Sachiko is Daikuro Maki, who came with her as a producer assistant this time. After she joined the company, she has been singing harmony for ZARD. However, although she is a harmony, everyone in the company has
Everyone knows that this person was personally recruited by Shinichi Iwahashi, and there is no way he can just be a harmony voice.
This time, she changed her identity and came as a producer assistant.
Sachiko Kamaiike respects Shinichi Iwahashi, and has long regarded Daikoku Maki as a junior sister. Daikoku Maki is two years younger than her, has a straightforward and cheerful personality, and can't hide things. With this kind of personality, it is quite comfortable and pleasant to get along with her.
Sachiko Kamaiike, who already has a younger sister about the same age as Daikuro Maki, is very skilled at being a caregiver.
Such a big Kuro Moki could get along happily with her and talk about young girls together, but Kamai Sachiko could not mention a word about her dreams and Iwahashi Shinichi who helped her realize her dreams.
Shinichi Iwahashi left, and Haruko Akamatsu returned. The recording of ZARD has ended, and the next step is to shoot the photos and MV for the album's inner pages.
Now that the recording is over, the music producer who followed him returned to Tokyo. Shinichi Iwahashi also arranged for Okuro Maki to go to New York for a short-term study, and she was also busy updating the map.
When it came time to take photos, although I still left early and came back late, surrounded by staff, I still had a lot of spare time. During my free time, Kamai Sachiko and Akamatsu Haruko left the group and went shopping together.
"I heard that Iwahashi-san is planning to build a recording studio in Los Angeles." Sachiko Kamaike vaguely heard the producer talking about the purpose of Shinichi Iwahashi's visit.
An interesting thing to say is that GENZO was a record company established with the opportunity of ZARD’s debut. Several people at ZARD knew this best. At first, they were able to establish a record company to solve contract problems. Now, these few people
Anyone who has seen Shinichi Iwahashi's courage would not find it strange at all that he suddenly took steps overseas.
Sure enough, I have seen it a lot and have already become accustomed to it.
"If it is really built, there will be more opportunities to come to Los Angeles in the future." Akamatsu Haruko said.
If a recording studio is really built here, there will be more opportunities for GENZO singers to come here to record in the future. Akamatsu Haruko, the man in black behind the scenes, will have the opportunity to come and go frequently.
ZARD has become very popular. Akamatsu Haruko has been following the band since its debut. The band is on the right track and the company is about to introduce new people. She cannot just revolve around ZARD. After that, she will inevitably have to wear multiple hats and participate in several groups of singers at the same time.
Make.
By then, the chances of the two girls working together will probably be reduced.
Shinichi Iwahashi returned to Tokyo, and Haruko Akamatsu returned to the team. At this moment, Sachiko Kamaichi, who was traveling with her, kept the words in her heart and did not say them to Shinichi Iwahashi, but now she said them to Haruko Akamatsu.
"...However, there are too many things to say 'thank you' to Iwahashi-san." Kamaike Sachiko said. As a result, it was impossible to say thank you in front of Iwahashi Shinichi.
Akamatsu Haruko replied, "Sachiko, you should also say 'thank you' to yourself."
"Me?" She smiled.
Akamatsu Haruko's steps were light and her mood was calm. "It was Sachiko who seized the opportunity, so you were able to realize your dream." Kamaike Sachiko was full of gratitude to Iwahashi Shinichi, but Akamatsu Haruko reminded her that the most important thing is "herself".
Sachiko Kamachi felt her kindness, "That's what I said...but in fact, before, I just ignored it and grabbed whatever appeared in front of me."
When she said this, she changed her subject and said, "If I hadn't met you, Haruko."
In fact, one of the most indispensable people to say "thank you" to is Akamatsu Haruko, who brought her to Shinichi Iwahashi.
When there were so many opportunities and traps in front of her, the appearance of Akamatsu Haruko made her choose the right path.
"I wanted to say the same thing."
Akamatsu Haruko tilted her head and looked at Kaname Sachiko with a lowered eyebrow, "Because I met you Sachiko and brought you to Iwahashi-san, I am qualified to realize myself."
After taking her place as the lead vocalist, she has worked well with her teammates to get to where she is now. ZARD has become so popular, which proves that Sachiko Kamaike was right to join. As a staff member of ZARD, Akamatsu Haruko, who has been in charge of the band from before their debut to the present, also
Because Sachiko Kamaiike joined the band, the band reorganized into ZARD and realized themselves.
The two girls couldn't talk about who helped whom, and who brought what to whom. But it seemed that because of their encounter with each other, they had the opportunity to realize their dreams and the possibility of their dreams coming true.
This kind of consensus flows between the two people, not only at this moment, but also earlier. It is precisely because of this that Kamai Sachiko does not thank Akamatsu Haruko, and Akamatsu Haruko does not say "thank you".
