The fat young man kept his promise and immediately dialed Toshihiko Takamizawa's number.
Intersecting relationships have always been a mystery among people in the entertainment industry. Artists from the same company may only meet at company parties, but if they love nightlife, it is very easy for them to develop unexpected friendships.
Similarly, if you have a friend who has a wide range of contacts, then it will be a matter of time before you get to know people from all walks of life through him
When Shinichi Iwahashi and the fat young man went to the next store to meet Toshihiko Takamizawa, they were drinking with two other people besides Toshihiko Takamizawa.
One is the producer of Nana Kanon, whose surname is Furuta. As for the other, it is Tetsuya Komuro of TM WORK. Toshihiko Takamizawa and Tetsuya Komuro, this combination is quite new, as if it proves the saying "unexpected friendship"
of.
Although there is a feeling that Toshihiko Takamizawa and Tetsuya Komuro are not from the same era, in fact, Toshihiko Takamizawa is only four years older than Tetsuya Komuro, and although TM WORK debuted in 1984, it is a full decade later than THE ALFEE
, but earlier in 1979, Tetsuya Komuro had debuted as a member of the band SPEEDWAY. After SPEEDWAY disbanded, he re-formed TM WORK and began a golden period of creation.
"Ah, Akimoto-kun and Iwahashi-kun are here." Toshihiko Takamizawa raised his head. After drinking some wine, he felt even more confused about "Who am I and where am I?" that he gave Shinichi Iwahashi.
Being contrasted by him, Tetsuya Komuro, who was sitting on the other side, looked even more chic and smart.
Toshihiko Takamizawa is also a beautiful figure in the band, like a girl who fell from the sky, but Tetsuya Komuro hardly makes people think of him as a "girl" or a "queen". He only thinks of him as a handsome man with clear features and elegant behavior.
"This is Iwahashi-san...this is the first time we meet." Tetsuya Komuro nodded to him as a greeting.
DREAMS E When T DREAMS E attended the Red and White Song Concert for the first time, she was assigned to the same lounge as TM WORK. However, it is not wrong to call it the first meeting.
Shinichi Iwahashi replied politely, "Komuro-san, I've heard of you for a long time."
Hearing what he said, Komuro Tetsuya smiled and said, "In this case, that's what I was about to say."
The two people exchanged polite words with each other, but it was Producer Furuta of Boligain. Listening to the two people's polite words to each other, he smiled and said: "Since both parties think so, wouldn't it be a good idea to meet tonight?
Just right?"
He was most familiar with Toshihiko Takamizawa, so he joked with him, "Takamizawa-kun, you did a great job."
"However, the call was made by Akimoto-kun." Toshihiko Takamizawa did not take credit.
The ball was thrown into Akimoto Yasu's hands, but the fat young man said nothing more and just picked up the wine glass with a smile.
Indeed, as a composer, Tetsuya Komuro has continuously provided songs for famous singers or idols, and has also undertaken soundtrack work for many large-scale film and television dramas. As a composer, he has gained wide recognition in the industry.
However, compared to the famous producer who led a new era, Shinichi Iwahashi is obviously more famous.
Although Iwahashi Shinichi didn't know whether Tetsuya Komuro was speaking politely, his words of "I've heard of him for a long time" were not casually polite.
A long time ago, he had suggested to Akina Nakamori that she try to collaborate with Tetsuya Komuro if she had the opportunity. This composer created "new music" and brought something new to the music world.
When the fat young man finished the phone call and mentioned that "Tetsuya Komuro-san from TM WORK is here," Shinichi Iwahashi was very interested in getting to know this new composer on the way there.
…
Tonight, Tetsuya Komuro and Toshihiko Takamizawa did not meet by chance, but had agreed to meet in advance. Recently, the two of them have interacted a lot, and they often sit together and have a drink.
THE ALFEE debuted in 1974. Among the bands that are still active today, they are not only considered senior members, but the relationship between the three members is also quite good. Moreover, the band's style and line are completely consistent.
It’s true that not many bands can have such stability.
But if you really want to say it, apart from the fact that none of the members have such sharp personalities, an important reason is that there is only one person in THE ALFEE who has the talent to be selected, and that is Toshihiko Takamizawa.
The band, which had been unknown for many years, began their glorious era only after they started a new structure and extensively used Takamizawa Toshihiko's lyrics and music. The band's famous song "Marian" was Takamizawa Toshihiko's masterpiece. Since then, the band has produced every hit song.
, it must have been written by Toshihiko Takamizawa.
But TM WORK is different. In the band, Takashi Utsunomiya has a stronger presence than Tetsuya Komuro, but Tetsuya Komuro has gained more attention from the world as a composer. When the talents of more than one person in the band enter the mature stage
, and when everyone has their own ideas, the band can only stagnate.
However, the temptation to explore new areas makes it impossible for people to settle for just being "a member of TM WORK".
Komuro Tetsuya thinks very highly of himself, and any musician he likes must have talents that he recognizes. Even when he is in high spirits, he doesn’t bother to say flattering words. What’s more, the other person is seven or eight years younger than him.
youth.
Tonight, when he said "I have heard of you for a long time" to Shinichi Iwahashi, he was not being polite.
Although it was the first time they met, the first time they sat together drinking, Tetsuya Komuro was no stranger to this name. Not only was he no stranger, he had already met him before, so he could see what this legendary producer was like.
Character, such an idea. If he really didn't want to meet him, when Toshihiko Takamizawa received the call from Yasushi Akimoto, Tetsuya Komuro would have said goodbye first.
At the beginning of the year, BURNING successfully acquired the production company BEING, and established VER LLION Records, which focuses on the band. Takahiro Matsumoto, who has a relationship with TM WORK and served as the band's concert team, also followed suit with his band B'z.
The contract was transferred to the newly established record company.
Before joining the BURNING department, B’z had already begun to make a name for itself. With the resource support of the BURNING department, the band became even more powerful and entered the fast lane. Now it is a popular band.
Looking at it like this, just getting a B’z, BURNING’s plan for BEING can be called a success.
However, BURNING chose BEING, and Tetsuya Komuro introduced him to Junichi Baba, hoping to introduce him to Ikuo Suho and get help from the BURNING department, Aibex DD, but he was blocked from the door.
Compared to BEING, which has been established for ten years, has quite a few talented people, has caught up with the trends of the band's era, and has rich experience in producing bands, the love of Bex DD is of course insignificant.
The company has just been established. The founder is a young man who sells imported records and has no production experience. His goal after establishing the company is to take over the distribution rights of the Eurobeat series in Japan and pick up the music that has long been outdated in Japan.
thing.
Under the wave of bands sweeping the industry, such a small company and such a goal seem quite ridiculous.
Zhou Fangyuxiong, who has a ready-made stove from BEING and loves to pick the delicious peaches cultivated by others, will certainly not set his sights on this seedling. Maybe it is a seedling that is not acclimated to the soil and will wither at some point.
In anyone’s opinion, choosing the former between BEING and Aibex DD is absolutely correct.
…
But how could Nagato Daiyuki be compared to Iwahashi Shinichi?
After having two drinks, the atmosphere gradually became more lively among the people they met for the first time. Tetsuya Komuro had already been interested in Shinichi Iwahashi, and Shinichi Iwahashi was not the kind of person who was difficult to approach. In addition, Akimoto was quick-thinking.
Well, don’t worry about the atmosphere being heated up.
After having two drinks together, Producer Furuta of Polly Kayin returned home, and the scene turned into a drinking contest between Shinichi Iwahashi and the chubby young man, two men in black behind the scenes and two beautiful bandmen.
Tetsuya Komuro and Shinichi Iwahashi were chatting, but an idea flashed through his mind involuntarily. How could a guy like Nagato Daiyuki, who only followed others, be compared with this shrewd and reserved young man.
However, he also knew clearly in his heart what the real reason was for him to have such thoughts.
I think so, not because Nagato Daiyuki joined the BURNING department and disrupted Tetsuya Komuro's plan, so I am biased against Nagato Daiyuki, but because of my calm observation during this period.
Without the help of the BURNING department, Matsuura Katsurato and his Aibex DD could not take a substantial step. As a result, Komuro Tetsuya's interest in Aibex DD, or the young man Matsuura Masato, also followed.
Faded.
If he wants to realize his ambition, it becomes unrealistic to hang out with a guy who has no prospects and no strong support.
But if VER fans LLION records can work, he can also switch to VER fans LLION records and still realize his ambition step by step with the support of the BURNING department.
However, the first work released by LLION Records, a VER fan, was REV composed of imitations of ZARD.
At the same time, GENZO's Shinichi Iwahashi expressed his interest in participating in the production of SOLO singers.
The band era is in full bloom, and various record companies have launched various bands. As the leader of this new trend, GENZO has established a foothold in the industry by being the first to launch bands, and even joined the Recording Association. Not only
In this way, after establishing a foothold, instead of clinging to the band's specialty dishes and eating endlessly, they chose to explore new markets.
Only when he can do this can he see his talent.
Tetsuya Komuro really admired Shinichi Iwahashi's vision and determination.
Not only that, but I also admire his ability to date popular female celebrities.
Although at first glance, this young man has a steady face that seems to be a bit uninteresting, and he seems to be a somewhat boring person. But when Tetsuya Komuro thought that he was also this young man, and his girlfriend was the most fashionable female star in the industry,
You can't really think of him as a guy who doesn't understand amorous feelings.
In Tetsuya Komuro's view, Shinichi Iwahashi exudes a mysterious charm because of his relationship with Akina Nakamori, which makes people wonder if there is another face behind that seemingly unintelligible face.
Having said that, everyone knows about the relationship between Shinichi Iwahashi and Akina Nakamori, and the two even participated in the show together. As a bystander, Tetsuya Komuro, a talented and beautiful woman, felt quite envious.
Not only that, he was also secretly thinking that if the gossip about Iwahashi Shinichi and Kikuchi Momoko was true, it would be more interesting.
Once upon a time, Tetsuya Komuro heard what Shunichi Baba revealed that the record company that BURNING's President Shubo originally preferred was GENZO. He also tried to negotiate with Shinichi Iwahashi and his partners, but in the end he was unsuccessful.
Tetsuya Komuro couldn't help but feel a little regretful when he thought of this piece of information again.
If a character like Shinichi Iwahashi can get assistance from the BU Japan NNG system, he will definitely be even more powerful. But thinking about it on the other hand, it is precisely because he is a dragon-tiger-like character that he will not fall to one side.
If you talk to such a person, such a far-sighted person, about "the future music world, high-speed dance music will show off its skills," you will probably hear some interesting insights from him.
Of course, the first time they met, they just had a few glasses of wine together. Tetsuya Komuro didn't lose his composure and showed his ambition that he regarded as a treasure in his heart. However, while he admired Shinichi Iwahashi, he also hoped to follow him.
He has a deeper relationship.
…
Before parting, Shinichi Iwahashi, Toshihiko Takamizawa, and Tetsuya Komuro all exchanged contact information with each other. After drinking all night, they were dizzy. When they got home, they turned on the lights and suddenly experienced an "instant awakening."
taste.
The coquettish Kenta heard the noise, rushed to the entrance, and circled around him, his short tail wagging rapidly, and for some reason, there was a hint of flattery.
At this time, he was a little drunk again, so he went out to walk it.
The fat young man's bad idea succeeded, which really messed up Kenta's good fortune. However, getting to know Komuro Tetsuya and the few extra glasses of wine he drank tonight were quite worth it.
Iwahashi Shinichi bent down, touched the puppy's head, went to change clothes, and prepared to take a bath... Then, when he entered the living room, he saw Kenta's "masterpiece", a dog map carefully drawn in the middle of the living room.
I really want to ask Kenta’s mother if this dog has ever done anything like this when she was at home.
It's a pity that Taopusida is still on a business trip.
The puppy who did something bad knew that it was wrong. So, from the moment he entered the door, he circled around him, looking like he was guilty of committing a crime. Now, when he arrived at the crime scene, he ran to Shinichi Iwahashi's feet again.
Test him.
I have to say, he is really smart and good at understanding faces.
Shinichi Iwahashi trained the dog with a straight face, but he still had to clean up the mess. While cleaning up, he thought to himself that next time he would take Kenta to the home of a fat young man and let Takai Asamiko meet this cute dog.
puppy, and took this opportunity to encourage her to get one too.
…
After a brief meeting with Takamizawa Toshihiko and Komuro Tetsuya, a few days later, Komuro Tetsuya took the initiative to call Iwahashi Shinichi. Iwahashi Shinichi was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this proud and arrogant talent would actually be so proactive.
one side.
However, after slightly confirming the itinerary, I agreed to Tetsuya Komuro's invitation.
