So Fangcun Dayou invited Nagayama Naoki to jointly create the "Original Girl Group":
"Without Naoki-san, I would have no confidence in my heart."
Looking at the sincere Mediterranean uncle in front of him, Nagayama Naoki always felt that he had gotten into something very troublesome.
...
"What are we discussing?" Itou Xiuyi walked in.
"Has Shuichi-san's filming been completed?" Nagayama Naoki saw that the staff outside were already packing up equipment, "We are discussing the establishment of a girl group."
"Ah, the filming is finally finished. All that's left is editing. Idols are really hard to take care of~" he sighed, "What girl group? The Three Girls of Flowers?"
As expected, Momoe Yamaguchi is the idol of a generation.
Yoshimura Otomo responded: "It's not that kind of idol group, it's that kind of girl group that has many members together. What did you say, Naoki-san?"
"Haha, it's really a bit difficult to say." Nagayama Naoki also gave Itou Shuichi some peace of mind.
"After listening to it for a long time, to put it bluntly, are a group of artists who are not good enough to be idols formed a group to debut?" Yi Tangxiu kept pointing out the key points.
This is actually true, but the appeal of being tall and tall is gone. Why does this guy Itou not have the literary style of an artist at all... Naoki Nagayama and Otomo Yoshimura silently complained.
"But, it's quite interesting~" Finally, he gave a affirmation.
None of the three are procrastinators. After coming up with this idea, they started thinking about the next operational plan.
There is no need to worry about personnel, Fangcun Otomo still has certain "photo artist" resources, and it will not be a problem to select about 5 people.
Naoki Nagayama recalled the configuration of Korean girl groups in the past, and briefly mentioned the roles of appearance, dance, cuteness, sexiness, etc. The other two people nodded, and Shuichi Itou also said that he could contact the choreographer to provide artistic support.
guidance.
After that, I contacted the TV station and tried the show.
"So, what should this group be called?" Yoshimura Otomo asked.
"Girls' Generation? blackpink? sisters?" Naoki Nagayama named the famous Korean girl group in one breath...
"Girls' Generation and Girls Idol overlap, it's not the style of our group." Otomo Yoshimura obviously didn't know the influence of this girl group in future generations.
"Also, blackpink? Are they following the trend of pinklady? sisters? I don't think they have any characteristics."
Itou Shuichi didn't know what he missed.
"Our members are all artists from photo magazines, and they are sexy...what about sexy sisters?" Otomo Yoshimura suggested.
"Let others think you want to make adult films!" Itou Shuichi complained.
It should not only highlight the sexy characteristics of the photo model, but also be cute, cool, and unconventional...
"Why don't we call them cats? It's such a changeable animal image, and the members wearing cat ears on the stage are very interesting!"
Who can say no to a girl with cat ears?
Starting from Qibi in "Mate no Kuni Star" in the 1970s, the element of cat ears has begun to spread in rb and is deeply loved by young people.
"This sounds interesting~" x2
Many major events in history actually came out of the discussions of a few people.
I don’t know whether he saw the prospects for future development or simply because of this cooperation, Yoshimura Otomo suggested:
“Naoki-san, Shuichi-san, let’s work together to establish a new label, let’s call it girl’s group, and cats will be our first girl group!”
Nagayama Naoki's Halo Studio, Starlight Laboratories, and producer Shuichi Itou formed a simple leather bag company.
Find out the shining points of each girl, then combine them, and then package them and launch them. This is the purpose of gg.
...
...
After some discussion, Yoshimura Otomo felt as if he had been injected with blood. He couldn't wait to have dinner together and hurriedly took a taxi to the office.
Itou Shuichi had no intention of leaving any food behind, so he started editing this version of the advertisement, hoping to end this commission as soon as possible.
Naoki Nagayama was left alone, driving a sports car to the commercial street of Shibuya.
Although the image of cat-eared girls already exists in this era, decorative hair accessories and clothing, etc., do not seem to be popular yet. First, investigate whether there are ready-made products. If not, consider drawing a design and let the factory customize it.
Batch.
Hey, it seems like this is another way to make money?
The shops in Shibuya have the latest trendy products from all over the world, and there are many different styles to choose from in the clothing area.
However, despite the strange look from the female clerk, Nagayama Naoki searched around the women's clothing section. There were many hair accessories, but there were no cat ear decorations.
It looks like it really needs to be customized.
However, it seems a bit excessive to hire a professional artist to draw cat ear designs. Do you need to ask your friends for help?
Nagayama Naoki returned home in tangle.
...
Seeing Akina's simple drawings on the bookshelf, Naoki Nagayama felt that drawing was actually quite simple.
So I bought a set of children's drawing tools, and then tried to draw a cat ear hair accessory based on the cat ears in the reference book...
It turns out that people always have some talents that they hide forever.
Looking at the unknown shape of the ears on the cardboard, Naoki Nagayama lost confidence in his painting talent.
After thinking about the friends around me, it seems that no one is professional, but if my painting skills are okay...
Nagayama Naoki's eyes drifted to the simple drawings on the bookshelf.
...
"Moses Moses, this is the Zhongmori family." It was a male voice.
"Moses Moses, this is Naoki Nagayama. Is Akina Nakamori at home?" Naoki Nagayama asked.
"Please wait a moment, I'll call her." The male voice didn't ask anything and put down the phone.
"Moses Moses, Naoki-san? I'm coming~" Akina's voice was not too deep at this time, and still had a girlish sweet tone.
"Hi, Akina-san, I'm sorry for calling so suddenly." Let's express our apology first so that we can make requests later.
"Hi, it's okay, it's completely okay." Akina's voice was very energetic, "What's wrong with Naoki-san?"
"Ah, yes, I have something to ask Akina-san for help." Naoki Nagayama said directly, "Akina-san should have some experience in painting, right?"
"Ah, actually it's just average." The voice sounded a little soft and hollow.
"So, Akina-san, can you draw cat ears?"
"Eh???"
Later, Naoki Nagayama explained on the phone his request to draw a hair accessory with cat ears and the reason for asking Akina for help.
"That's probably it. There really isn't anyone else around who can draw. Do you think Akina-san can help?"
"It's okay to help, but I don't know if I can draw well."
"Don't worry about this, just draw a rough outline~" The factory will continue to confirm when customizing, and there are different samples and so on.
"After the painting is finished, Akina-san's reward will be indispensable~" Nagayama Naoki is still very good at life.
"There's no need for remuneration~ It's just a small favor. Zhishu-san even treated us to such expensive watermelon before~" Xiao Mingcai said that it was not necessary.
"How can that be done? One code equals one code."
"If Naoki-san continues to be so polite, I won't help you draw anymore~" He was actually quite stubborn.
"Then after you finish painting, let's treat Akina-san to a big dinner. That'll be all right."
...
After a period of friendly humility, the two parties changed the reward to a dinner treat and agreed to help out on the weekends.
After hanging up the phone, Nagayama Naoki also felt a little sudden. Why did he ask Akina-san for help?
The simple drawing on the bookshelf is a reminder,
I'm afraid it's also a project of the idol girl group.
It probably brought back memories of Showa idols from my previous life.
