The servant Tokie took back the newspaper. In the morning light, Misa Watanabe turned over today's newspapers one by one. After washing up, Watanabe Wan Yumi went downstairs. When she noticed her daughter walking into the living room, Watanabe Misa also
Without raising his head, he said something.
"Iwabashi?"
Early in the morning, Watanabe Wanyumi suddenly heard her mother mention his name. She sat down next to her mother. Watanabe Misa piled up the newspapers and handed them over, leaving only one copy in her hand and reading slowly.
.
Before Watanabe Manyumi opened the newspaper, she first thought of what her mother was saying, and then added, "Originally, whether it is a music festival or a band craze, Iwahashi plays an important role in it."
As soon as the music festival ended, the newspaper's entertainment section reserved a large space for the singers who performed that day and the grand occasion of the music festival. While the band craze was completely pushed to its peak, Shinichi Iwahashi, a major contributor, would naturally steal the limelight.
.
Watanabe Mayumi and her mother praised, "Yesterday's music festival was wonderful."
Yesterday afternoon, she also went to the performance venue. She had agreed in advance to go back to her hometown after dinner, so she did not stay at the venue until the end. However, after being at the venue in person and feeling the atmosphere, in retrospect, she had a deep appreciation for the music festival.
The grand occasion is felt more deeply.
"Indeed, the importance of Iwabashi goes without saying." Misa Watanabe said, "It's too important."
Watanabe Wan Yumi frowned slightly and flipped through the pile of newspapers. The Watanabe family subscribed to more than one newspaper. In the entertainment section, among related reports, the names of GENZO and Iwahashi Shinichi appeared quite frequently. After thinking about it,
, she replied slowly, "Mother thinks Iwabashi's influence is too strong?"
Misa Watanabe shook her head, "Iwahashi's influence is very strong, but we are not talking about the same thing."
"GENZO and Iwahashi are completely tied together in the report." Misa Watanabe carefully considered her words, "There was no need for Iwahashi's name to appear."
Watanabe Manyumi said lightly, "It's not like Iwahashi bought the draft himself." She said something witty, but she couldn't help but laugh first.
is not that right?
In the news covering the music festival, Shinichi Iwahashi is mentioned so frequently, and his name also appears together with GENZO. It seems that the president of the record company is somewhat narcissistic. He spends money to subsidize himself, and by the way, he and the company
Deep binding creates the impression of "GENZO = Iwahashi Shinichi" to the outside world.
"If you really bought it yourself, that would be easy." Misa Watanabe replied.
Watanabe Manyumi laughed again, "If Iwahashi really bought it himself, I'm afraid there is a problem within the company." Unless it comes to the point of fighting for power, otherwise, there is no need to tie his name to GENZO.
Prepare such a draft.
She showed a little unquestioning trust in Shinichi Iwahashi, and realizing this, Misa Watanabe couldn't help but frown.
Back then, it was for that music festival that a disagreement arose between the sisters Yoshida Miki and Watanabe Mayumi, and Watanabe Mayumi split up the family to become independent. Now it seems that this decision was made extremely correctly. The era of the band has come, Watanabe Mayumi and Iwa
Qiao Shinichi cooperates seamlessly...
It would be a good thing if these two people could always be of the same mind and have a common goal. But can it really be "always"?
Misa Watanabe doesn’t think her thoughts are unfounded.
However, it is one thing to feel that Watanabe Mayumi unthinkingly sides with Iwahashi Shinichi is not appropriate, but it is another thing to have Watanabe Misa's inner doubts while reading the newspaper.
Since Watanabe Manyumi did not hesitate to deny that GENZO would make this purchase for herself in the press release, the newspaper's exaggerated exaggeration of GENZO and Iwahashi Shinichi has nothing to do with them.
From this point of view, the newspaper was probably happy to write this to add more highlights to the draft.
But what if not?
Watanabe Mayumi thought about the meaning of her mother's words and closed the newspaper, "Anyway, I am on Iwahashi's side. At this stage, GENZO is a small company and relies appropriately on Iwahashi's influence in the underground music industry.
Strength is not a problem." As long as she stands on Shinichi Iwahashi's side and GENZO has only him as a flag to the outside world, such a binding does not matter.
Misa Watanabe was aggressive: "Can Iwahashi's influence always be positive?"
Watanabe Wan Yumi was stunned when her mother choked her. Watanabe Misa was indifferent to her daughter's reaction, neither taking it lightly nor taking it seriously. She added, "And you, will you always stand on Iwabashi's side?"
Three years ago, after holding the first music festival, Watanabe Manyumi decided to become independent from Watanabe Productions. She had a showdown with her and wanted to take away Shinichi Iwahashi with her.
At that time, Misa Watanabe met Shinichi Iwahashi without telling her daughter and asked similar questions. Three years later, Misa Watanabe had to ask her daughter the same questions again. When Misa Watanabe thought about it, she found it strange.
But Watanabe Manyumi didn't answer.
At this time, Deng Jijiang came over to invite the two of them to have dinner. As soon as she entered the living room, she noticed that the atmosphere was a little subtle. But this subtle atmosphere was only touched by her accidentally. Before she said anything,
Let the ice melt first.
Watanabe Manyumi turned her face and said in a relaxed tone, "I'm going to meet Director Koyama who is a fan of Toshiba E later. I have to leave early today."
Misa Watanabe nodded and closed the newspaper in her hand. The mother and daughter moved to the restaurant and had breakfast together. After the plates were removed, Watanabe Mayumi went upstairs to dress up. Before going downstairs, the driver came to pick her up.
She said goodbye to her mother, and Tokijie walked her to the entrance and handed her her handbag, "You go slowly." Watanabe Wan Yumi said with a smile, "...come back in a few days." After leaving the door, he walked through.
In the courtyard, when I got into the car, the smile on my face disappeared.
The emotionless driver drove silently. Watanabe Wan Yumi recalled her mother's question just now and felt unhappy. But rather than being hurt by her mother's aggressive attitude, she was more confused by the question.
Will she always side with Shinichi Iwahashi?
When she met Director Koyama, who was a fan of Toshiba E, she congratulated her and praised the music festival for being a complete success. Watanabe Manyumi breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the questions her mother had asked did not sting her so much.
In the afternoon, she made some time and had a phone call with Shinichi Iwahashi.
Ever since we became independent, it has been a routine to meet Shinichi Iwahashi for lunch on Mondays to exchange information or exchange our thoughts. When we are busy with work and don't have time to chat over a meal, we just talk on the phone.
"This time, you are in the limelight again."
As soon as Watanabe Manyumi opened her mouth, she realized that she had said something similar to her mother. She felt a little confused, but Shinichi Iwahashi on the other end of the phone didn't know it, so he smiled and replied: "I didn't show up from the beginning to the end.
."
"If you show up, the topic will be even greater." She also smiled.
Iwahashi Shinichi was a little helpless, "I'm not someone who depends on topicality." He made fun of himself, "On the contrary, the more mysterious the better."
There are legends about Iwahashi-san everywhere in the world, but Iwahashi-san himself keeps a low profile. This is how it feels.
"Don't come here." Watanabe Wan Yumi scolded him.
There was silence on the phone for a while. Shinichi Iwahashi restarted the topic, "No matter what, it was a big success this time."
Watanabe Manyumi responded.
"Now that it has ended successfully, the next step will be various celebration parties, and going to thank the important parties who provided help...all kinds of things." Shinichi Iwahashi thought about a few words, and laughed at himself: "The stage is the first
When it’s over, it’s the people in black’s turn to appear.”
"It's said to be 'Men in Black', so of course it means before the lights turn on and after the stage ends." Watanabe Manyumi really laughed this time, "Speaking of the celebration..."
"You and I also have a special way of celebrating, right."
Iwahashi Shinichi said "Yeah", "I'm looking forward to that glass of good wine."
"With such a big success, it doesn't hurt to look forward to two cups."
Shinichi Iwahashi smiled, "If you say that, I won't be polite and drink more."
Before ending the call, Watanabe Manyumi joked, "You're welcome."
In addition to having a drink, there are other ways to celebrate. Watanabe Wan Yumi thought of this, but what she said was: "Then, I'm ready."
Iwahashi Shinichi happily agreed.
The music festival was a great success, and Iwahashi Shinichi was also beaming on the phone. Things planned were realized little by little, which is of course something to be happy about.
After such a phone call, Watanabe Manyumi felt the joy of Iwahashi Shinichi, and she also relaxed, waiting to enjoy the tangible and intangible benefits of successfully hosting this music festival, and began to think about what to do next.
Walk.
Iwahashi Shinichi has no intention of continuing to be a band, and has already begun to look forward to the SOLO market.
Although Watanabe Manyumi considers herself an outsider, she also knows what she is doing. Along with the craze for bands, there is also the public's attention to creators. Singers with creative talents will also get more recognition under the general trend of the band.
focus on.
Iwahashi Shinichi is very sober.
He is sober not only because he is not just content with the band market, but also because a person with such a strong influence in the band industry can go out and prepare to create a solo singer before the band reaches its peak.
She remembered the words Iwahashi Shinichi often said, and couldn't help but repeat them, "Before it rains, prepare an umbrella."
Monday's schedule was busy, but even so, in the evening, on a whim, she asked her assistant to deliver today's evening newspaper. Turning to the entertainment section, there were still reports about the music festival.
Industry practitioners are well aware of how strong the relevant reports will be after the music festival ends. Therefore, during the three days of the music festival and the first day after the end, the industry has avoided announcing heavyweight news.
The event not only gave the music festival a card, but also prevented the response to my draft from being unsatisfactory.
For this reason, today's newspapers and entertainment pages are quite calm and peaceful from morning to night.
The next day, at the newsstands and in the tram carriages, a new pre-release preview of "Weekly Bunshun" was replaced. Amidst the dense and gaudy layout, which made people dizzy, there was also an entertainment article among the scandalous headlines.
title.
"Akina Nakamori and Shinichi Iwahashi are in a deep love!!"
…
The public relations department of GENZO called Watanabe Manyumi and informed her of the matter. It concerned the president of the company, and such notification was out of necessity.
We have discussed cooperation with Kenyin several times, and Watanabe Wan Yumi certainly knew that Iwahashi Shinichi was dating Nakamori Akina.
However, it was decided at that time that the news would be suppressed until after the promotion period for Akina Nakamori's new album, which also happened to be during this period to eliminate the possible negative impact of the previous scandal between Shinichi Iwahashi and Momoko Kikuchi. Kenyin was determined
I had an idea, so I bought the photos that the paparazzi sent to the office and took care of them.
How could it be leaked and made public now?
Watanabe Wan Yumi was speechless for a moment when she received such a call. After a pause, she replied, "I understand. Just leave Iwahashi-san's private matters to him."
This was said in a business-like manner. Of course, the target of the speech was GENZO's public relations department, and that was all.
As soon as she put down the phone, Watanabe Wan Yumi picked up the receiver again and wanted to call Shinichi Iwahashi to find out what was going on. But when she put her finger on the dial, she hesitated for a moment, her mind gradually calmed down, and she retracted her finger.
Nothing is perfect, let alone a relationship between a man and a woman. As long as two people have contact, there is a possibility of being discovered. A plan is a plan, and changes are changes.
Since "Weekly Wenchun" dares to make entertainment headlines, it must have ironclad evidence in hand. Since the plan has failed, the next step is to adapt.
However, in addition to this, there was another question that arose in Watanabe Wan Yumi's mind, accompanied by a faint feeling of discomfort.
Why "Weekly Bunshun"?
It was because Yanyin was well managed, and magazines such as "F Day", "Weekly Women" and "Female VEN", which specialize in tracking celebrity gossip, helped to suppress the relevant information, so it was transferred to the unscrupulous "F-Day".
Weekly Wenchun" in hand?
"Shōkan Bunshun" has no scruples, but "Shōkan Bunshun" doesn't never make deals with firms. If the money is properly managed, ordinary scandals can be suppressed, and big scandals can be downplayed into minor scandals, unless it is too big.
It cannot be suppressed, so it must be released.
Nakamori Akina and Iwahashi Shinichi are just in an ordinary relationship, and they have nothing to do with scandals. What's more, Iwahashi Shinichi is a man in black behind the scenes and is not a big star, so the topic he can bring is limited.
A firm with deep pockets like Yanyin should be someone that magazines are eager to negotiate terms with. Or, in the opinion of Shukan Bunshun, is this big news worth publishing and paying for in exchange for it?
If this is the case, I really underestimate the power of these two names put together, Nakamori Akina and Iwahashi Shinichi.
No matter what, next, Kenyin will have to adapt, and so will Iwahashi Shinichi.
If the plans of the two parties change, then she will have to adapt accordingly. At this time, Watanabe Wan Yumi suddenly thought of the question her mother asked her.
In addition, the conversation between yesterday morning and my mother and the faint feeling of discomfort in my heart suddenly came together.
Watanabe Wan Yumi picked up the receiver again and called Iwahashi Shinichi.
