Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1367 1368. The Chosen One

When Shinichi Iwahashi was in the underground music circle, he was almost always dealing with bands or solo singers, and had never been in contact with underground rap.This time, since the meeting with Ichiai Yuri was partly out of politeness and half out of expanding one's knowledge, the topic was brought to Ichiai Yuri's favorite underground culture.

If I really wanted to say, if it wasn't for such a chance acquaintance, Yanqiao Shinichi probably wouldn't take the initiative to get acquainted with such a person.

Although he showed interest in underground culture, Ichii Yuri's words were very restrained, and he didn't show extra enthusiasm just because Iwahashi Shinichi was a big man in the industry.

From this point of view, Ichii Yuri does not look like an "idol".After chatting like this for a while, Iwahashi Shinichi even wondered in his heart why Ichii Yuri went to participate in the selection meeting of Tokyo Dance Dolls.

Akina Nakamori's curiosity about Yuri Ichii came and went quickly. When they met each other, after a few words, he felt that he and Yuri Ichii were from two worlds.

However, when Yuri Ichii communicated with Shinichi Iwahashi and talked about her beloved underground culture, this young girl with a sense of alienation, Akina Nakamori saw some kind of familiarity and kindness from her.

Such a discovery made Nakamori Akina's previous feelings disappear.

However, no matter whether Ichii Yuri shows aloofness or indifference, a person who made her debut by participating in the selection meeting of an idol group and also readily accepted Tetsuya Komuro's invitation to participate in this performance, she will not be a person who has no interest in fame and fortune Artiste.

This contrast made Iwahashi Shinichi remember the name Ichii Yuri in his heart.

And what he thought in his heart was that the music genre of rap had never entered the mainstream attention in the Japanese recording industry.Although rap culture is an underground culture, and, to some extent, it may be a disaster for rap to enter the mainstream.

Even so, Iwahashi Shinichi still feels that a large enough music market will surely allow a hundred flowers to flourish.

Laymen don't point fingers at experts, and try not to take action on things that are unclear. This is the rule of conduct that Shinichi Iwahashi has always followed.

At this moment, I have thoughts about the music genre of rap in my heart, and I don't intend to disclose it to anyone for the time being.

At this time, he thought of Hiroshi Fujiwara again.I think of this person who is not only an outstanding designer, but also a pioneer of Japanese underground rap, who participated in the creation of Japan's first hip-hop music label.

Shinichi Iwahashi lacks interest in "Fashion King Hiroshi Fujiwara".However, for the "rap pioneer Hiroshi Fujiwara", at this moment, Iwahashi Shinichi became interested in him because of the thoughts evoked by Ichii Yuri.

……

After all, it was the first time that Iwahashi Shinichi and Ichii Yuri met, so even if there was a topic of interest, he clicked to the end and bid farewell at the right time.

Coming out of the waiting room, Sakamoto Takusina took Shinichi Iwahashi to make fun of him, "Iwahashi-kun is trying very hard to understand what he doesn't understand."

Before Iwahashi Shinichi replied, Nakamori Akina was amused by this sentence and said, "Sakamoto-san's words seem to be describing an old man." She had no burden and joined in the ridicule of Iwahashi Shinichi.

Takuji Sakamoto agreed again and again, and continued to fire at Shinichi Iwahashi, "However, such a grandfather has a cute personality."

"..."

Yanqiao Shinichi was speechless.

Akina Nakamori looked at her silent husband, and approached him with a smile.The two were next to each other, but they neither held hands nor linked arms.She stayed by Iwahashi Shinichi's side, but talked to Sakamoto Takuji, "To be honest, I don't know much about underground culture."

Although she has to work hard to understand, but because the rhythm of the topic is between Iwahashi Shinichi and Ichii Yuri, she just listens to it most of the time, so naturally she will not expose her ignorance.

He sang with Takuji Sakamoto and made fun of Shinichi Iwahashi, but in fact he was more on Shinichi Iwahashi's side than anyone else.

Akina Nakamori is such a person.

After all, Takuji Sakamoto was an invited guest, not a staff member accompanying the visit.Leaving from Shijing Yuri, he also said excuse me, and went back to make preparations before the performance.

Takuji Sakamoto walked away, and the staff responsible for entertaining them backstage filled their seats in due course.

Just now, when the three of them were chatting and joking, the staff consciously retreated to a distance not too far away, not only avoiding the content of their conversation, but also immediately receiving the signal from Yanqiao Shinichi.

At this moment, the backstage was busier than when Shinichi Iwahashi and Akina Nakamori first came over.Before the super-large performance started, the atmosphere in the backstage was tense and chaotic.

Akina Nakamori, who focuses on performances in small venues, even felt a little strange in such a completely different backstage atmosphere. It seemed that she was not a Taopu star who had performed hundreds of shows, but a newcomer.

The important people have already met, so Iwahashi Shinichi plans to go back to the lounge first.In this background, there is naturally a room prepared for him.Although Shinichi Iwahashi brought Akina Nakamori to this grand performance, the couple did not intend to go to the front to participate in the dance party.

I didn't come here to see the show, but to make the final confirmation before the show started.

Under the leadership of the staff, Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina returned the same way and walked towards the lounge.On the way, I passed Tetsuya Komuro's lounge. The door of the room was open, and loud chatter and laughter came from inside.

Tetsuya Komuro's assistant was standing by outside the door, and when he saw Shinichi Iwahashi and Akina Nakamori, he bowed to them again despite having greeted them not long ago.

……

"Yanqiao-san, Akina-san." The assistant's young voice sounded.

The backstage lounges of outdoor concerts are all temporary structures, with no sound insulation and nothing to do with comfort.Tetsuya Komuro heard the voice of his assistant saying hello, and stopped talking and laughing.

"Our Lord Yanqiao is back." He smiled and said to the people in the room.In this spacious lounge, there are four or five people gathered at the moment.In addition to Shinohara Ryoko, there are also guests invited by Tetsuya Komuro to participate in the performance.

Even among these people, Shinohara Ryoko seemed to be able to do a job with ease, without showing any timidity.

Komuro Tetsuya walked towards the door, and waved to Iwahashi Shin, "Iwahashi-kun, and Mingcai sauce, welcome back. Now, how do you two feel about the visit?"

He is like a host who entertains guests.

Iwahashi Shinichi smiled, not paying attention to the frivolity in Tetsuya Komuro's tone, but instead said a witty thing, "Everyone is nervously preparing for the performance, but we are walking around leisurely."

"Relax," Tetsuya Komuro joked, "Most of you are just pretending." After the blunt words were spoken, he took it seriously and said, "There is no need to be nervous about this kind of performance, just enjoy it."

The two people who had returned from the visit walked into Tetsuya Komuro's lounge.

The others in the room got up and saluted Iwahashi Shin, and then Nakamori Akina.Among the few people who were obviously guests of the show, the young girl who seemed to have nothing to do with today's stage stood out very conspicuously.

Yanqiao Shenyi recognized at a glance that this girl was Ryoko Shinohara.However, nothing was said.His gaze swept over Ryoko Shinohara's face, and he immediately found it interesting to see her expression of hesitating to speak and waiting for something.

It was Tetsuya Komuro who introduced, "This is Ryoko Shinohara."

The tense strings in Ryoko Shinohara's heart relaxed following Tetsuya Komuro's words.She bowed her head to Yanqiao Shenyi, "...Before, I was indebted to Yanqiao-san for taking care of me."

Yanqiao Shen looked confused, "Have we met before?"

Hitting a snag, Shinohara Ryoko was a little embarrassed, but quickly put away her shyness and explained: "Last year, I got a job opportunity in a short drama program produced by Iwahashi-san..."

Ryoko Shinohara is still a regular guest on that show.It's a pretty good job for an unknown idol.Regardless of whether Iwahashi Shinichi remembers her or not, Shinohara Ryoko cannot treat the fact that Iwahashi Shinichi named her as never happened.

Iwahashi Shinichi thought for a while, nodded, and smiled, "I remember." He turned his head and said to Nakamori Akina, "I will notice that Shinohara is still on the scene of your TV drama."

Ryoko Shinohara played a trick for Akina Nakamori, the filming scene of the TV series was crowded with people, and it was hard for the leading actor to leave an impression on the surrounding background boards as he was being directed around.

At this moment, when Shinichi Iwahashi said that, Akina Nakamori blinked and looked at Ryoko Shinohara.

Ryoko Shinohara is a fan of Akina Nakamori.

However, in this situation, she is the only one who is not qualified to tell anything about herself.After all, Tetsuya Komuro didn't introduce himself, and Ryoko Shinohara couldn't initiate a conversation with Shinichi Iwahashi.

Tetsuya Komuro watched from the sidelines till now, finally opened his mouth, and joked, "It turns out that there is such an intersection between Liang Zijiang and the two of you. I really don't know whether to say it's a 'too coincidental', or to say 'it's complicated'."

Iwahashi Shinichi replied, "It's the same for me. I didn't expect that Shinohara and Komuro-san also have intersections."

He only said half of it, and didn't repeat Tetsuya Komuro's slightly bitter second half of the sentence.However, this kind of knowing and deliberately avoiding attitude is already a kind of subtle sarcasm.Looking at the interaction between Ryoko Shinohara and Tetsuya Komuro, the relationship between these two people is unclear.

Although Shinichi Iwahashi and Tetsuya Komuro maintain cooperation trust, Tetsuya Komuro's nature is destined to subconsciously test Shinichi Iwahashi's bottom line to confirm whether he can "make progress".

Occasionally fighting each other, once again confirming that Yanqiao Shinichi is not easy to mess with, Komuro Tetsuya tactfully put away all this, pretending nothing happened, and said with a smile: "So, it's a double coincidence."

He said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "It seems that Liang Zijiang is the chosen one."

the chosen one.

When Yanqiao Shen heard this sentence, his heart moved.

……

Shinohara Ryoko is a member of Tokyo Dance Dolls, and Ichii Yuri is also a member of Tokyo Dance Dolls.Akina Nakamori spoke innocently, and said with emotion: "There are two Tokyo Dance dolls backstage today."

Actually, before today, Nakamori Akina had never heard of such a combination.

Although they are both in the same world of entertainment, there is more than a thousand miles between the people who are at the top and the people who are struggling.

For a Taopu star like Akina Nakamori, if she casually mentions the name of a small artist when participating in the show, it may bring a lot of attention to her.

When Akina Nakamori mentioned that there were two members of Tokyo Dance Dolls in the backstage today, she regarded such a coincidence as fate in her heart, and wanted to learn more about the combination of Tokyo Dance Dolls later.

Being noticed by her idol is certainly something to be happy about... However, Ryoko Shinohara has long since lost the innocence of being flattered in front of her idol.

Tetsuya Komuro recalled the subtle relationship between Ryoko Shinohara and Yuri Ichii, and asked, "Have you two met Yuri Ichii-chan?"

The person who answered was Akina Nakamori, "That's right." She praised, "She's also a very cute girl."

Akina Nakamori praised Ryoko Shinohara and Yuri Ichii at the same time.Komuro Tetsuya heard it in his ears, thinking of Shinohara Ryoko's rejection of Ichii Yuri, he couldn't help feeling a strange evil taste.

However, immediately afterwards, Tetsuya Komuro suddenly felt a little similar to Ryoko Shinohara.

In fact, in today's backstage, Tetsuya Komuro and Ryoko Shinohara share some parts in their inner thoughts.

……

Shinichi Iwahashi and Akina Nakamori were sitting in Tetsuya Komuro's lounge, but the rest of the lounge couldn't sit still and got up to leave one after another.

Ryoko Shinohara is an audience who came to visit backstage, not a guest who has her own lounge. At this moment, considering the timing, she also began to prepare to leave.

However, as soon as this idea appeared in his mind, Tetsuya Komuro first talked about himself with Shinichi Iwahashi in front of her, "...Yanqiao-kun, like me, feels that Ryoko-chan has something that cannot be ignored. Outstanding expressiveness."

Yanqiao Shen nodded, "As a rookie, Shinohara has indeed demonstrated very impressive acting skills."

Tetsuya Komuro smiled, "If it's not eye-catching enough, how could Iwahashi-kun be able to pay attention to Akina-chan when he was looking at her?"

"..."

Sometimes, I have to admire Tetsuya Komuro's mouth that stirs up the flames, and watching the excitement is not a big deal.

Yanqiao Shinichi didn't answer, but Nakamori Akina, listening to this conversation, couldn't help laughing.

But rather than saying Tetsuya Komuro's words made her laugh, it's better to say that it was Iwahashi Shinichi who didn't know how to respond to these words, which seemed more interesting.

Tetsuya Komuro had the upper hand, showing a smug expression.He then discussed with Shinichi Iwahashi, "After that, how about making a single for Liang Zijiang?"

This sentence seemed to be spoken casually as a joke, and it sounded extremely casual.

However, Ryoko Shinohara, who was hesitating to leave, suddenly felt a string in her heart when she heard such a sentence.
