Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1437 1438. New home, new guest
This spring, Utada Terumi and Fuji Keiko are planning to travel to Africa to collect music, so they entrust their daughter to Iwahashi Shinichi and his wife for the time being.

Based on the educational philosophy of Terumi Utada and Keiko Fuji, over the years, I have given my daughter a break from school from time to time, and the whole family has traveled to collect stories.

"But there are occasional exceptions."

Leaving the filming scene of the movie, following Iwahashi Shinichi on the way back to the record company to work, and chatting about the next life in borrowing, Utada Hikaru expressed feelings that did not match his age.

Having said that, the ten-year-old child this year is not too old or too young.

She occasionally said a sentence or two that didn't look like her age, Yanqiao Shen heard it, and couldn't help but find it funny.However, this child is not pretending to be an adult. Rather, she has a calm side by nature.

When I first met Utada Hikaru in the recording studio, she was a child who was good at playing with herself. At this age when she already has herself, she has no problem with "waiting for adults to get off work".

Yanqiao Shinichi took Utada Hikaru back to the company, and left her in his office before returning home from get off work.During the period, the female clerk took Utada Hikaru around the company, but not long after, she went back to Iwahashi Shinichi to pass the time.

After returning to China, Utada has maintained a cooperative relationship with GENZO as a producer for the past few years.Utada Hikaru often played with his father in the recording studio, and Iwahashi Shinichi and the father and daughter were very familiar.

Even so, he was still deeply surprised by Utada's proposal to entrust his daughter to his care.But after thinking about it, the reason why he is qualified to be a temporary guardian of a little girl is because he has a caring wife in his family.

And a puppy who knows Utada Hikaru very well.

There is a young guest at home who is coming to stay temporarily. This kind of thing is quite new to the Yanqiao couple.Yanqiao Shinichi didn't hate children, and he was acquainted with the Utada family, so it was inconvenient to refuse when asked.Going back to discuss with Akina Nakamori, this warm-hearted wife readily agreed.

Her personality, if she heard such a thing, she would definitely not refuse.

However, Nakamori Akina agreed so readily, Yanqiao Shinichi felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.He himself had no way of knowing where this inexplicable feeling came from, the thought flashed across him, and he quickly put it aside.

In this way, just as the Yanqiao couple settled down in their new home, they are about to welcome a little guest who will be with them day and night.

……

In the evening, Akina Nakamori finished work and was ready to go home.She got into the car, thinking about entertaining a little guest tonight, and was full of energy, planning the dinner menu.

The little assistant knew that Yanqiao's house was going to have a guest temporarily, and he saw that Akina Mori was so caring, and found it interesting, "Akina-san seems to be looking forward to it."

Akina Nakamori smiled, "I heard he is a very cute child."

When it comes to children, she seems to have a natural maternal instinct.However, the child who is going to live in Yanqiao's house is already ten years old, so he is almost a "girl" rather than a "child".

Such thoughts flashed through the little assistant's mind, and she felt that Ming Cai-san seemed to underestimate the age of the guest.However, looking at her expectant look, I still couldn't help laughing.

Back home, Akina Nakamori changed her clothes and called Shinichi Iwahashi.The dusk in spring makes people feel gentle.She held the receiver and walked to the window.

The phone was connected, and Shinichi Iwahashi's voice rang out.

"I'm back~" Akina Nakamori said to him.

On the other end of the phone, Yanqiao Shenyi was very cooperative and replied, "Welcome home."

When the two of them were dating, they were used to making jokes like this. Now, this stupid couple, no one thinks the other is nasty.Akina Nakamori asked him, "Where's Xiaoguang?"

Yanqiao Shinichi told her that he took Utada Hikaru to the shooting site, and now he brought her back to the company, "We will go back together after a while. Her luggage will be sent back first, and I will ask you to arrange it."

Nakamori Akina agreed.

All day today, Shinichi Iwahashi led Utada Hikaru to work.Akina Nakamori put down the phone, thinking of a child behind him, he found the scene very interesting.

A few years ago, Shinichi Iwahashi showed Akina Nakamori a gift from Hikaru Utada - children's stickers.It was Iwahashi Shinichi who gave origami as a gift, and received a gift from Utada Hikaru.The child who opened the sticker book and asked Shinichi Iwahashi to choose a gift in return is now ten years old.

Akina Nakamori recalled her ten-year-old age, and belatedly considered how to get along with a ten-year-old child.

……

In the afternoon, the clerk brought over the audition tapes that had recently been mailed to the company.

Record companies receive audition tapes, performance videos, or song demos from all over the country every day. These newcomers who have no chance of debut recommend themselves and send these things to each company.

In the past, Shinichi Iwahashi and Miwa-chan also wrote self-introduction letters by hand, and sent out audition tapes, but until they gained some attention as DREAMS COME TRUE, when they promoted Miwa-chan as a single, their efforts were rewarded. There is only such a little achievement as "Bushman Concert Harmony".

The same is true for geniuses such as Meihejiang.The industry pays attention to the right time, place and people, and pays attention to fate.

Every few days, Yanqiao Shinichi would listen to the various audition tapes sent to the company recently, eliminate 90.00% of them, and then instruct the clerk to send interview invitations to the remaining one percent.

Rookies who stand out are often competed by several record companies at the same time. In this case, it depends on the means of the scouts sent.But even if it is the one percent selected, it may not be possible to keep a few after the interview.

Yanqiao Shinichi fiddled with the playback equipment, listening to one after another.It only takes 30 seconds to be eliminated if you know it’s boring as soon as you listen to it, but you may not be able to stand out after listening to it completely.

He was used to this kind of thing, and it was very smooth.While listening to the audition tape, I raised my eyelids and saw Hikaru Utada looking at me, so I couldn't help pressing the pause button.

There was natural curiosity in her eyes.

Yanqiao Shenyi thought for a while, took off the earphones, and called her over, "Would you like to listen to Xiaoguang too?"

Hikaru Utada asked: "Do you want to listen to the audition tape?" The daughter of the music producer is not very old, but she already speaks these record industry terms very fluently.

Yanqiao Shinichi invited her, "Xiaoguang also listen to it, and choose what you like from it."

In order to avoid the ambiguity of aesthetics, Shinichi Iwahashi is not the only one in GENZO to listen to the audition tape. At this time, it is not a big deal for him to ask the children to listen to it too.

He called the clerk and delivered another set of playback equipment.There are two people, one big and one small, each listening to his own.

During this period, Nakamori Akina called and told her that she had gone home and that she had already ordered the menu for dinner.As soon as Iwahashi Shin answered the phone, he arranged for a clerk to take Utada Hikaru's luggage back first.

After listening to dozens of audition tapes, Iwahashi Shinichi took off his earphones and rubbed his temples.He leaned on his elbow, looked at Hikaru Utada, who was still patiently listening to the audition tape, and wondered what feedback he would get from her next.

Iwahashi Shinichi, who is used to listening to audition tapes, has his own set of standards and is very efficient.Even if he was distracted to answer the phone during the period, he still finished it first.

But for Utada Hikaru, this is the first time, full of freshness, and curiosity about different creators, let her listen carefully to each audition tape.

When she became serious, Yanqiao Shinichi was waiting for her.This afternoon, after Utada Hikaru followed Iwahashi Shinichi to the company, he obediently played with himself.At this moment, the situation changed, and it was Yanqiao Shinichi who remained patient.

Finally, after listening to the last demo tape, Utada Hikaru took off his earphones.

She looked at Shinichi Iwahashi, thought over and over again, and said, "Being the person in charge of a record company is hard enough."

"Huh?" Yanqiao raised an eyebrow.

For some reason, there was a feeling of being sympathized by Hikaru Utada.

Although the child was only ten years old, Yanqiao Shinichi couldn't figure out what was going on in her heart.Utada Hikaru stretched his waist, tilted his head, and kept his eyes on his face, "Obviously they are different creators, but they have many of the same creative ideas. However, there are also creators who are trying to write a new melody..."

Her comments are clear and logical.

But this is not so much a "comment", as it is a child with musical talent, who made an intuitive judgment after hearing the piece.

Yanqiao Shinichi found it interesting when he heard her words.

……

Hikaru Utada and Shinichi Iwahashi finally selected different audition tapes.Yanqiao Shinichi ordered the clerk to send interview invitations to these selected people.

The ten-year-old child selected newcomers based on her feelings, and Shinichi Iwahashi didn't think there would be any missed talents among them.As much as Utada Hikaru showed her talent, that was something else entirely.

But since the child was invited to participate in listening to the audition tape, Iwahashi Shinichi gave the newcomer selected by her a chance, and did not regard his invitation on the spur of the moment as teasing her.

Utada Hikaru expressed his thoughts on his arrangement decently, "Iwahashi-san is very trustworthy."

Yanqiao Shin smiled, "Of course."

Respond without hesitation.

However, even a young girl's opinion is well respected, such unthinking, it will not make people feel rash, on the contrary, they know that he is worthy of trust.

In fact, being willing to live in Yanqiao's house represents trust.

People who know all kinds of origami are not bad people.Although he is a few years older, Hikaru Utada's hobby of collecting small things has not changed, and he still maintains his love for bears.

I also remember the past when Iwahashi Shinichi played with her in the recording studio when she was a child.

After listening to the audition tape, Yanqiao Shen got off work early and took this little guest home with him.
