Yasuyuki Okamura has a playful smile, appearing frivolous and naive, without any serious intentions.
He and Yutaka Ozaki both entered the entertainment industry directly after dropping out of high school, and never really became "social people". As geniuses, they had producers as guardians and staff to protect them from wind and rain, so they didn't receive much training.
, and also able to avoid most human feelings and sophistication.
Perhaps because of this, it seems like a natural childishness to have been miraculously preserved.
These two young men, Yutaka Ozaki has a handsome appearance, and Yasuyuki Okamura has a lovely demeanor. The two communicate frequently at work and have a deep relationship in private. In terms of co-production, it would not surprise anyone around them if they fell in love one day together.
However, these two brothers, Ozaki Yutaka was sentenced to probation for possessing Nashay, and Okamura Yasuyuki was also included in the tabloid gossip list every day.
In short, he is childish, but he is definitely not a good boy.
I had previously listened to Yutaka Ozaki's music at a recording studio in Los Angeles. Tonight, since he came to the recording studio, Yasuyuki Okamura was very generous and asked Shinichi Iwahashi to listen to and watch the album he was producing.
After listening to their music respectively, Iwahashi Shinichi had a strange association, that is, Ozaki Yutaka is handsome and orthodox, just like the music he created. Okamura Yasuyuki is quirky, just like the music he created.
Iwahashi Shinichi undoubtedly thinks Yutaka Ozaki is a genius, but when it comes to the music they produce, he is actually more interested in Okamura Yasuyuki.
Okamura Yasuyuki himself writes, composes and arranges music, and has a distinct personal style in music. In terms of arrangement, he is obviously influenced by Pune and Michael Jackson. Not only that, when you listen to his songs, you can feel it at the first ear.
With his unrestrained talent, he is truly a musical naughty boy. Compared with him, Yutaka Ozaki, who is also a genius, is obviously more restrained in his talent.
A few years ago, an RNB singer named Toshinobu Kubota became popular. However, the popularity of Toshinobu Kubota did not make RNB popular. In the world's largest music market on the other side of the ocean, RNB has long been ordinary and can no longer be ordinary.
There are some good Japanese RNB singers, but if you want to create a pop whirlwind, you must produce music that has been "harmonized" and in line with Japanese tastes.
This is just like a traditional dish leaving its home country and arriving in another country. If it wants to be accepted by the public and become a daily dish, it must be improved and become in line with the tastes of most ordinary people there.
RNB is like this, and the same goes for other styles, whether hip-hop or anything else. Even if you want to try Chinese style in the Japanese music scene, if you pursue commercial success, you must not copy the song "Blue and White Porcelain", but make an improved version.
Like Mapo Tofu, it turns it into a smooth taste for Japanese people.
Now that the band is in the spotlight, Shinichi Iwahashi is mainly engaged in the band's business and is indeed making a lot of money. However, there is no reason to stick to the same old routine for thirty years. The cruel music industry will not let a record company keep the same old routine.
If you don't change if you take thirty years of opportunity, no matter how prosperous you were at the time, you won't be able to stop yourself from being eliminated later.
So, while making a band in the band trend, I also want to try other new things.
To create a solo singer, you must also explore new pop flavors and consider what else besides the band can become the company's new signature. To explore new pop flavors, you must get in touch with fresh ones, even if they are not popular now.
Find the real gold in something that is popular and find something that can be transformed and have the potential to become popular.
Japanese musicians are often deeply influenced by Western music, and most of the current popular music is based on Western music. For this reason, Shinichi Iwahashi pays more attention to the eccentric Okamura than the orthodox Yutaka Ozaki.
Jingxing.
…
Although Okamura Yasuyuki is a bit weird, he goes too far casually.
After leaving the recording studio, the three of them went to find a place to have a drink as promised by Yutaka Ozaki on the phone. When Shinichi Iwahashi arrived at the recording studio, the two brothers were still at first, and waited until Shinichi Iwahashi arrived.
After chatting with them for a while in the recording studio, the introverted Yutaka Ozaki gradually became more familiar with him and became more relaxed and casual, even joking.
As for Okamura Yasuyuki, he was just a familiar person at the beginning, laughing and joking. Later, he became more carefree and unrestrained, and even unexpectedly, suddenly asked a question to Shinichi Iwahashi.
"Does Iwahashi-san have a good girlfriend?"
Iwahashi Shinichi had just picked up his wine glass. When he was asked this question, he paused and glanced at Okamura Yasuyuki.
Okamura Yasuyuki had a serious face, like a doctor sitting in a consultation, asking the patient in detail. Iwahashi Shinichi glanced at him, and he also looked like "you don't have to hide your illness to avoid medical treatment". With such an expression, it seemed that it was wrong not to answer.
Before Iwahashi Shinichi could figure out how to deal with him, Okamura Yasuyuki analyzed it himself, "Iwahashi-san seems to be the type who is very popular with women and visits love hotels at least three times a week."
"..." Iwahashi Shinichi was speechless.
In all the years I have been in the industry, this is the first time I have met someone who talks about these things to people they meet for the first time. Moreover, it is not gossip, but serious and caring, as if Iwahashi Shin's words are all he needs.
Point out problems and popularize relevant knowledge.
If you really want to say it, this kind of inexplicable and unnecessary concern is much harder to deal with than gossip.
Seeing that Iwahashi Shinichi remained silent, Ozaki Yutaka interrupted and hit Okamura Yasuyuki on the head. Okamura Yasuyuki covered his head with both hands. This exaggerated look was 120% intentional.
"Yasuki-kun's hobby." Yutaka Ozaki explained to him. To smooth things over for a good friend, Yutaka Ozaki didn't know what to say.
Compared with Yasuyuki Okamura, Yutaka Ozaki is a mature and steady adult.
This Okamura Yasuyuki is very concerned about the private lives of people of the same sex. When they first met, he would ask the other person unobtrusively, and he was beaten for this. However, whether he was beaten or scolded, he held his tail between his legs at the time.
Guaranteed to do it again.
The most speechless thing is that he didn't ask the question because of gossip or other ideas, but because he was worried that others were not aware enough in this regard. If he really responded to his question, he might be educated by his righteous and stern words.
ten minutes.
Fine.
As long as you stay in the industry long enough, you can meet all kinds of people.
After being beaten, Yasuyuki Okamura held his head in his hands, looked at Shinichi Iwahashi, and suddenly made a big face at him, smiling like a child trying to get away with something wrong, and said, "
When Iwahashi-san has a straight face, he is more dignified than my producer Kobayashi-san."
This Kobayashi-san is talking about the producer Kazuyuki Kobayashi who discovered him from the recording studio and made his debut.
Iwahashi Shin nodded and brought the wine glass to his mouth. Okamura Yasuyuki felt that his embarrassment had been relieved, and he was more or less close to Iwahashi Shin, trying to make up for the bad conversation just now, and chatted with him.
"The new album in production, I originally wanted to name it "Hospital Doctor", but Kobayashi-san sternly rejected it." Yasuyuki Okamura described it more and more darkly, "Kobayashi-san said, I can use that kind of title, and it will work for me."
Suspicion of harassment.”
"After being called back and revised again, I submitted the album title of 'Tutor'," Okamura Yasuyuki said.
Shinichi Iwahashi was speechless, but also found it funny. This guy was a real genius, but in terms of his level of nerves, he was also hard to deal with.
…
After finishing the drink, Yutaka Ozaki and Yasuyuki Okamura took Shinichi Iwahashi to dance again. Yasuyuki Okamura was also an interesting person. He had been arrogant before and after Shinichi Iwahashi ignored him, he seemed to feel that he had offended Shinichi Iwahashi.
I was angry and tried every means to make amends.
Iwahashi Shinichi was not angry, and he felt that there was no need for him to be so. However, if Okamura Yasuyuki wanted to get close to him, he would not refuse. Except for the occasional nerve that made people wonder what to say, Okamura Yasuyuki was generally not a good person.
Not difficult to get along with.
Not only that, he occasionally shows a little excessive naivety, which makes people worry that he will be deceived.
Yasuyuki Okamura has outstanding dancing skills. All the dances on the concert stage are designed by himself. Apart from his poor singing skills, he is quite capable in all aspects.
Even if he dances in the recording studio, the person who makes the producer think he is "sparkling" can become a star even if he joins the disco. In terms of fame and popularity, Ozaki Yutaka is higher. But in such an occasion, Okamura Yasuyuki can definitely do it.
Lead the audience with his personal charm.
All night long, Yutaka Ozaki's manager acted as a driver, first taking the three of them to drink, and then taking them to the disco "Julianna Tokyo" over at Wangan Plaza.
In Tokyo, Juliana is so famous that no one knows about her.
At night, all of Juliana's stores in Tokyo are full. Celebrities, entertainers, and people from the sports world are also regular customers of this store. Journalists from weekly magazines and fanatical star chasers come here to wait for celebrities.
, all kinds of species are available.
Shinichi Iwahashi's old acquaintance, cross-dressing tycoon Takuji Sakamoto, worked as a DJ at the store they went to after quitting Mimi C Lu B.
Tonight, Takuji Sakamoto was nowhere to be seen on stage.
I don't know if it's because he's off duty or if he's moved to a new home venue. However, the DJ present seems somewhat familiar to Shinichi Iwahashi.
After a while, I vaguely remembered the student who came to work part-time in the lounge the last time I went backstage to meet Takuji Sakamoto.
It seems to be someone with the last name Nagao...
Tomaki Nagao.
Iwahashi Shinichi tried his best to recall the name and exchanged numbers with the people on the stage. When he remembered it, he also found it funny to rack his brains to think of where a familiar-looking stranger had seen him do this.
He put aside this slightly unnecessary thought at the moment and brought his attention back.
…
The disco in Kugai has Juliana Tokyo, and the luxurious disco has the sign of MAHARAJA, which played an important role in the disco era. Juliana swept Tokyo and did not have an impact on MAHARAJA. The venues were still full, and branches were opened everywhere, and the pace kept going.
To Osaka.
Tonight, several idols from the "82 Group" came together to play here.
Yue Marumaru was responsible for the liaison, but the other two members of the Shibukaki team, Masahiro Motoki and Toshikazu Fukawa, did not participate. This idol group has been disbanded for several years. The relationship between the three members is quite subtle. During the formation period,
Yuying Yaomaru has no communication with the other two teammates in private, but the other two members get along well.
Without considering the compatibility between the members and forcing them to form a team, the result is that everyone will know about the disagreements between the members.
After the disbandment of Shibu Persimmon Team, Kitagawa Kaguya will no longer try to get JR, who hates each other, to form a team. Even if the relationship between the members is not very good, at least the general audience will not know that there is no plastic love in the group.
For the audience, no matter how clear they are in their hearts, the persona of the star on stage or the friendship between the group members is not credible, but the members of a group can't stand each other, or they have their own cliques.
If things are put on the table, it will be difficult to appreciate the charm of "combination" when looking at them.
After the group disbanded and Yamaru Yuei quit Johnny's, his career development suffered some setbacks and was not very smooth. Recently, the moment that attracted the most attention was the actual photo of him and Hidemi Ishikawa in a relationship taken by a weekly magazine at the end of last year.
Second, last month, Hidemi Ishikawa's agency denied the information that Yuei Umaru and Hidemi Ishikawa were getting married.
…
After the Shibu Persimmon team was disbanded, in the past few years, Nakamori Akina only occasionally ran into Yuumaru Yuei two or three times when she went to the TV station to record programs. Both parties were busy with their own affairs, so they just said hello.
Hidemi Ishikawa and Yuhide Marumaru, Akina Nakamori and Hidemi Ishikawa are more familiar with each other and have a better relationship.
Last month, I saw a press release from Hidemi Ishikawa's agency denying that the two were getting married. Akina Nakamori was curious in her mind whether this was true or not. However, when she later called Hidemi Ishikawa and tried to ask,
, Ishikawa Hidemei is also unclear.
This attitude confirms Nakamori Akina's guess. At least Ishikawa Hidemi's office is opposed to it.
The office publicly announced that the marriage was fake. Rather than an external announcement, it was more of a war internally and with Ishikawa Hidemi herself.
As soon as the announcement came over, Hidemi Ishikawa was pinned down and unable to move.
Ever since Ishikawa Hidemi's agency issued a statement denying it, until today, there has really been no movement from both sides, no matter Yuei Umaru or Hidemi Ishikawa. The two idols were not very popular when they were popular, but now they are both outdated.
The popularity of the news could not last for a few days, and it had long been forgotten by the public.
Before coming to dance, I would have a drink to warm up, and then I would be full of energy when I went to dance. Normally, Akina Nakamori would respond enthusiastically, and I would drink two drinks before going to dance happily.
However, Iwahashi Shinichi, a producer who knows how to put on airs, warned and warned me again and again. He said it so many times that it inevitably left some marks in his head.
Ordinarily speaking, she is not the kind of person who will stop drinking when she is told not to drink. On the contrary, if she gets annoyed by being told not to drink, she will deliberately do something against her. But in her heart, she is thinking about what Shinichi Iwahashi told her, after the album recording is over.
The promise to have a nice drink again actually made it into my heart.
I don’t know if this is a case of accepting the soft rather than the hard. Or maybe Iwahashi Shinichi has thoroughly understood her and knows what to say to make her obedient.
Nakamori Akina had to abide by the agreement she made with Iwahashi Shinichi. She stopped drinking alcohol. People traveling with her were surprised at first.
"Aren't you going to drink Akina-chan?"
Kyoko Koizumi, who was drinking heavily, tried to persuade her.
