Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1177 1177. Psychological comfort
I didn't go for a drink with Miwa-chan and Nakamura on Christmas Eve, Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina who left the LIVEHOSUE backstage, and I didn't just go home like this.

Having just finished watching a lively performance, the mood has not calmed down for a while, and neither of them wants to go home like this.However, although the spirit is still excited, the body is a little tired. If they want to go to dance somewhere, they are obviously lazy and don't want to move.

While in the background, Yanqiao Shinichi called the driver and asked him to come pick him up.

The sentimental driver will send the two of them to watch the show tonight, and will be on call at any time during this period.Now, send two more people to sit in the membership-only bar that they often go to.

"Does Yoshida-san drink?" Akina Nakamori raised the glass by himself, but suddenly remembered, and asked Shinichi Iwahashi.

Yanqiao nodded cautiously, "Although the capacity for alcohol is not very good, but I always want to drink two glasses."

"Is that so~" There was something in her words.

Yanqiao Shen took a look at her.Akina Nakamori seemed to want to arrange him, and then asked, "So, during the recording of the band, did you also pay attention to Yoshida-san?"

"You don't need to ask." Yanqiao Shinichi took it for granted, "Eight out of ten times, I will be very angry and quarrel with her."

Akina Nakamori seemed to be waiting for this answer.

She imagined that when Yanqiao Shinichi said that, Yoshida Miwa quarreled with him unconvinced, and couldn't help laughing.Backstage tonight, after witnessing the two people quarreling with their own eyes, this imagination became more concrete.

She picked up the wine glass with a smile, and took a sip of whiskey with a sense of provocation, and moved a little closer to Shinichi Iwahashi, "I'm not in the prohibition period right now?"

When Akina Nakamori challenged Shinichi Iwahashi with words, she didn't realize that although she had fun in the drinking tug-of-war with Shinichi Iwahashi, she also accepted his "no drinking during recording" rule.

Looking at her presumptuous expression, Yanqiao Shinichi didn't know how to answer, so he stretched out a finger and gently broke her hand holding the wine glass.

The warm temperature of the fingertips, and the cold outer wall of the wine glass.

Stimulated by cold and heat, Akina Nakamori suddenly felt a sway in her mind, like a side effect of drinking too quickly.

"When I proposed to watch the show," Shinichi Iwahashi talked to her, "I was worried that you would not agree."

Akina Nakamori was absent-minded, "Why didn't you agree?"

Iwahashi Shinichi was talking about last Christmas Eve, when he proposed to invite Nakamori Akina to the show next time, she had a subtle reaction.It seems that they have no interest in watching the performance of DREAMS COME TRUE together.

However, at this moment, Nakamori Akina was confident, "Last year was last year."

She put on this posture, but Yanqiao Shenyi had nothing to say. He had nothing to do with her, so he just smiled and said, "That's true." His tone paused, "But, you came to see the band with me. I'm happy with the show."

Mineshima, the person in charge of LIVEHOUSE, is the one who led him on the road of being a manager and made his whimsical possibilities come true.And DREAMS COME TRUE is the band that gave him a whimsical idea and tried his best to realize it.

Today, the band is successful, and the LIVEHOUSE, which was born because of the band's success, has been handed over to Mineshima, providing a stage for many dreams and an opportunity for many people who are also whimsical.

On Christmas Eve, the performance promised to be held every year, the stage was born because the dream of DREAMS COME TRUE came true.

such a place.Of course Shinichi Iwahashi would be happy to watch the show with Akina Nakamori.

"Then I'm right."

Nakamori Akina accepted his words with a smile, and did not ask the reason for this happiness.

Since Iwahashi Shinichi is happy, this is enough.And... She told him like she was learning the tongue, "I'm very happy that you invited me to come with you."

Learned more about him.Moreover, it was Iwahashi Shinichi who took the initiative to open his heart and welcome her in.Akina Nakamori has no reason not to be happy about watching the show together.

In a sense, for two people who are happy to watch the show together, this joy comes from the connection of hearts.

……

After Christmas Eve, a piece of heavy news occupied the headlines of all newspapers and media - the Soviet Union's Gottu announced his resignation.Immediately, the Soviet Union disintegrated.This superpower has come to an end.

Mainstream newspapers from all walks of life have made serious reports. Turn on the TV. In the orthodox news programs, the host broadcasts solemnly. In the news programs for the younger generation, even such news can be urgently carried out on the street to investigate the younger generation. How well people know about the Soviet Union, and what "disintegration" means.

After experiencing the disillusionment of their ideals, since the 70s, more and more Japanese youths have no interest in politics and are indifferent to society.Japanese experts at that time called them the "Three No Generation".That is: no strength, no emotion, no concern.

In the 80s, the newly grown Japanese youth came to the era of emphasizing their own feelings and individuality, and all kinds of fashions were everywhere. At this time, experts stood up again and called this generation "new human beings" to express their respect for them. Incomprehensible.

In the early 90s, young people who were interviewed on the street gave even more varied answers to the interviews, as if this was not a news program, but a funny variety show with random interviews.

I don't know when new experts will pop up and give this generation of young people a new title.

Just after Christmas Eve, there still seems to be a little bit of the atmosphere of the previous night on the street, like the aroma of grilled meat steaks in the air. ——The steak was just out of the oven not long ago. However, the aroma that has cooled down, although it smells like steak, is more or less greasy and nauseating.

In this situation, the young people who are being interviewed, whether it is the questions they are asked or their reactions and answers, all form a subtle reflection of this atmosphere.

In fact, when reporters throw questions at young people, they are already secretly expecting to hear outrageous answers from the interviewees in order to increase the entertainment of the program.And bad, ignorant answers can also arouse the intellectual superiority of the audience in front of the TV.

The producer of a program may not be as smart as the audience imagines, but he will never be as stupid as the audience imagines.If the audience feels low-intelligence in a part of a program, the production team will not be unaware.

After all, it was just intentional.

Street interviews are almost always carried out in a pre-determined direction, even though it is labeled as "random".

The superpower that kept pace with the United States ceased to exist.Although Shinichi Iwahashi also has some basic understanding of major historical events—to put it modestly, it is impossible not to know about the "disintegration of the Soviet Union."However, when he was sitting in the office, holding a newspaper and reading the freshly released news, he couldn't help feeling that he was in the middle of history at this moment.

Major historical events are often like termite erosion.By the time the existence of termites is discovered, it has come to the brink of collapse.Next, the world will usher in new changes.

Yanqiao Shenyi read several newspapers one after another. Newspapers with different positions have their own tendencies in reporting on this matter.He turned on the TV in the office, and he could see the news being broadcast on any station by just broadcasting it.

He watched the indifferent and erroneous answers of the younger generation interviewed on TV. He didn't think it was funny or boring, but he thought in his heart that the behavior of young people, in fact, gave the public an illusory sense of security. .

In today's Japan, the bubble era has come to an end, and that kind of hysteria has penetrated into almost every aspect.Longing for a sense of security and confirmation of the way of life in the bubble era is always the case.

For the war in the Gulf region, Japan, at the request of the United States, provided US$115 billion in financial aid to support the actions of the United States.However, this matter is considered by the Japanese to be: the powerful Japan is helping the United States.

For the Japanese to have this kind of thinking, the media is naturally indispensable.

The same thing, what the media says can determine how the public sees it.

But for the Japanese with inflated self-esteem, experiencing the dream-like bubble era, publishing a book like "Japan Can Say No", they believe that they have already surpassed the United States and become the number one in the world.The consortiums wantonly buy iconic buildings in the United States. When referring to the land price in Tokyo, they often convert it into "the land price in a certain place can buy a certain state in the United States."

This kind of Japanese cannot accept that even though they are in an unprecedented dream age, they still have to obey the United States-such a reality.

Therefore, it is necessary to have spiritual comfort such as "the powerful Japan is helping the United States".

Inferiority and arrogance are the state of the Japanese at the moment.

Of course, how the United States cramps Japan, beats it, and other things that further prove that Japan cannot walk independently are distant and unfamiliar topics for ordinary people.

Even if there is news in the newspaper, as long as it is conveyed to the public in another way, it becomes another matter.It is enough for a certain number of people to stay awake, and what the media has to do is to make most people live in a dream.

At this moment, putting the reaction of the younger generation on TV is also a sense of security.

Although a major event that shocked the world and will be recorded in history has happened, because of seeing familiar young people in our country who are so indifferent and almost stupid on TV, there is still a feeling of "everything is business as usual and everything has nothing to do with Japan." "Sense of security.

Even if it is serious news that looks objective and calm, the host's broadcast also strives to have a tone of watching from the sidelines.

To Iwahashi Shinichi who watched coldly, all this seemed like a carnival before the end.

And this year, indeed, is coming to its end.
