Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1453 1454. Maiden Storm
Ayumi Hamasaki is only 15 years old and needs to live with a guardian.Akina Nakamori had just met Ayumi Hamasaki tonight, and she still remembered her sense of responsibility towards her, so she asked an extra question.

Yanqiao Shen smiled and said: "Ordinarily, the child should be taken care of by Wanyumi-san."

This is the usual arrangement in the industry. However, Akina Nakamori listened to what he said, and felt that things were not that simple, so she asked him, "Is Ayu unwilling?"

Yanqiao Shinichi found it interesting, "Why do you think so?"

Nakamori Akina replied "feeling", paused, and then said: "Ayu seems to be pretending to be worried tonight."

She was confused by her feelings when she suddenly heard Iwahashi Shinichi tell her: "Ayu seems to want to live in our house.", and her eyes widened.

"what?"

Yanqiao Shinichi was even happier, "It seems to have been taken aback."

"Say that all of a sudden, of course you'll be shocked..." Akina Nakamori blamed him and said angrily.She pressed Iwahashi Shinichi's arm and asked, "Did Ayu tell you that?"

"That's not it."

"Could it be that you are being sentimental?"

Shinichi Iwahashi was ridiculed, but he didn't take it seriously, "It would be better if I was passionate." He told Akina Nakamori, "If Ayu doesn't want to live with Manyumi-san, she can also appoint a guardian to accompany her, but... ..."

"This child seems to be eating Xiaoguang's jealousy."

When Yanqiao Shen said his guess, he also found it ridiculous.But looking at Akina Nakamori's reaction, she looked surprised by her own words.

His wife was as surprised as himself, but Yanqiao Shinichi relaxed.He told Nakamori Akina, "What does that child mean, since we already have a child named Xiaoguang in our family..."

If Utada Hikaru could temporarily stay at Iwahashi's house, why couldn't she?

Ayumi Hamasaki revealed an intention that surprised Akina Nakamori.

Iwahashi Shinichi was amused by Ayumi Hamasaki's childish idea, and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.But Akina Nakamori felt complicated when faced with Ayumi Hamasaki's jealousy towards Hikaru Utada.She asked Shinichi Iwahashi, "What are you going to do?"

Shinichi Iwahashi asked, "What should I do?"

"The rest of Ayu's life in Tokyo."

"With Manyumi-san's talent, it shouldn't be a problem to take care of a child." Iwahashi Shinichi said it as a matter of course.Although in the ears of Akina Nakamori, this kind of statement that confuses the talent of work with the talent of life seems a bit rough.

Of course, she knew in her heart that she didn't have such an idea because she felt that Mayumi Watanabe could not take care of Ayumi Hamasaki's life.

Akina Nakamori asked him, "Don't you want to take care of her?"

At this time, Iwahashi Shinichi was surprised. He asked, "You want her to live in our house?"

"Has Shinichi-kun ever thought that it's not suitable for Ayu and Manyumi-san to live together?" Only the couple were talking, and Akina Nakamori expressed his thoughts.

Watanabe Wanyumi, who has a capable personality and is dedicated to work, entrusted Ayumi Hamasaki to her and asked her to take care of a child, which was tantamount to giving her a burden.On the other hand, Ayumi Hamasaki has a strong personality, and letting her get along with Wanyumi Watanabe day and night may arouse her rebellious psychology.

Nakamori Akina said her own thoughts, her face became hot, as if she said something that denied Wanyumi Watanabe.

Yanqiao Shen looked at her face suddenly flushed with embarrassment, and thought it was very interesting.He thought about the several times he had met with Ayumi Hamasaki. The personality shown by this girl, what Akina Nakamori thought, was indeed not unreasonable.

Iwahashi Shinichi was worried that Hamasaki's strong personality would make her fall into school bullying, so he refused to let her go to a girls' school.But after all, Hamasaki's rejection of authoritative older women was overlooked.

And Nakamori Akina's carefulness comes from the empathy of those who have experienced it.

"That's what I said..." Iwahashi Shinichi certainly felt that Akina Nakamori's consideration was reasonable, but he still hesitated.After all, letting newcomers who have not debuted to live in the president's house is not just as simple as having a place to board.

Letting Utada Hikaru live at home is to take care of her temporarily on behalf of her parents.What does it mean if Ayumi Hamasaki lives at home?Although he was the one who signed Ayumi Hamasaki, Shinichi Iwahashi was not very interested in recruiting Ayumi Hamasaki to his home.

However, Nakamori Akina's attitude seems to be happy to take care of another girl.

Yanqiao Shen felt a little inconceivable about his wife's enthusiasm.

……

Although Wanyumi Watanabe took the initiative to accept the job of taking care of Ayumi Hamasaki's daily life, she actually didn't have a clue in her heart.She was a little hesitant, not knowing whether to let Ayumi Hamasaki live with her, or to arrange another place for her.

The housekeeper comes to take care of Watanabe Wan Yumi every day. However, if Hamasaki lives with her, she will have to hire a live-in maid to take care of her life.

But she was used to being single, and Wanyumi Watanabe was a little bit uncertain when she wanted to get along with a girl day and night.When she herself was a child, Watanabe's house was always full of entertainers from the firm, surrounded by parents, laughing and laughing.Although Watanabe Wanyumi lives in the pampering and pampering of artists, she often feels excluded from her family in her heart.

It's just that when I grow up, things from my childhood seem to be written off automatically, and I can't bring them up again.

Watanabe Wanyumi made a plan and psychological preparation, but when Shinichi Iwahashi met her the next day, he suddenly discussed with her and let Ayumi Hamasaki live in his house.

"Let Ayu live in your house?" Watanabe Manyumi was not unsurprised, but then she said: "Then I will take off the burden." In a sense, it was indeed a burden off.

Yanqiao Shinichi teased her: "It sounds like a sincere sentence."

"Will there still be holidays?" Wanyumi Watanabe asked back.

Yanqiao Shinichi joked with her: "Maybe you blame me for meddling in my heart."

The artist borrowed to live in the president's house not only to have a guardian to take care of his life, but also to establish a personal attachment relationship with the president.

Both Shinichi Iwahashi and Mayumi Watanabe are well aware of this.Of course Wanyumi Watanabe would not think that Shinichi Iwahashi was vying for absolute control over Ayumi Hamasaki, but Shinichi Iwahashi mentioned it cryptically at this time in order to get a favor from her.

"It's better to say that it's a great help, whether it's for me or Ayu." Wanyumi Watanabe smiled, not in front of others, and didn't mind saying what was in her heart: "Under the same roof as a single woman, it's her The president of the firm...you don't need to do this now, the kid will probably breathe a sigh of relief."

With Watanabe Wan Yumi's ability to see into people's hearts, she would not be unaware of Hamasaki Ayumi's subtle emotions.

As soon as Yanqiao Shen heard that she had broken the words, he felt a little bit sorry, and out of the lively atmosphere, he teased her: "So, it sounds like the Manyumi-san people are scary."

"For adolescent girls, an older female president living alone is a bit scary." Watanabe Wanyumi didn't mind sarcasm.

"The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes." Yanqiao Shenyi shook his head.

Watanabe Wanyumi showed a somewhat complacent expression, and said to Iwahashi Shinichi: "Look at this, I won't follow the path of my parents' generation, and let the family always be full of entertainers' laughter. But you, Shinichi-kun, It’s kind of like that now.”

Yanqiao Shenyi smiled, and replied: "There is no sign yet."

The two reached a consensus in this way.

In the morning, the clerk went to the hotel to pick up Zhang Zi and Ayumi Hamasaki, and made arrangements for Ayumi Hamasaki's life in Tokyo.After everything is in place, Zhang Zi will return to Fukuoka in the afternoon.

Shinichi Iwahashi conveyed to Zhang Zi the arrangement for Ayumi Hamasaki, "As for Ayu's life in Tokyo, if Zhang Zisan and Ayu have no objections, my wife and I will be her temporary guardians for the time being. What do you agree?"

Ayumi Hamasaki didn't expect it, he didn't expect things to turn around like this.

It is not uncommon for an artist to live in the house of the president of his agency before his debut.If Yanqiao Shinichi was a bachelor, it would be difficult for him to take a young girl to live at home.But with a wife in the family, it's perfectly justifiable to do so.

It is said that Shinichi Iwahashi is the guardian, but in fact, the person in charge of care is Akina Nakamori.

Naturally, Zhang Zi would not have any objections to this.Even, to some extent, secretly relieved.

Iwahashi Shinichi looked at Ayumi Hamasaki and asked her, "Does Ayu have any other ideas?"

"No." Ayumi Hamasaki shook his head.

Yesterday, she seemed to be arrogant and unreasonable, and asked Yanqiao Shinichi for something that had nothing to do with her, but seemed to belong to her.Today, when such a thing really came into her hands, she seemed to be frightened, showing an expression of doing something wrong.

After all, he is a child, and he can't hide what's on his mind.However, I also know that I should not speak out.

Iwahashi Shinichi stopped asking and nodded, "In that case, it's decided." He remembered Hamasaki Ayumi's subtle attitude towards Utada Hikari, and mentioned it in front of Akiko: "There is a child living in our house. , a few years younger than Ayu. Last time Ayu came to Tokyo, I had already met her once."

When he mentioned Utada Hikaru, Hamasaki Ayumi's expression did not change, but Akiko felt more relieved about the fact that her daughter was staying at the Iwahashi family.

Watanabe Manyumi teased him: "It seems that there is already some shadow."

This is a dig at Shinichi Iwahashi's words just now: "There is no trace yet."Iwahashi Shinichi accepted this sentence and said to Akiko with a smile: "Another Ayu will live in the house, and now the family will be full of laughter."

Although he said it to Zhang Zi, he said it to Wan Yumi Watanabe.However, in Zhang Zi's mother and daughter's ears, this sentence is also a kind welcome to Ayumi Hamasaki.After joking, he confirmed with Zhang Zi: "Zhang Zisang, there is still a part that needs your cooperation."

Zhang Zi bowed his head to him, "Ayu will leave it to you from now on."

……

Shinichi Iwahashi was going to meet with the people from the production company tonight, so he called Akina Nakamori and told her that the clerk would send Ayumi Hamasaki back first.

When he was on the phone with his family, Ayumi Hamasaki sat in his office and watched him talk.

The contract was signed, and Ayumi Hamasaki's future life and studies were also arranged properly. Zhang Zi left behind her daughter and returned to Fukuoka.After seeing off his mother and staying alone in Iwahashi Shinichi's office, waiting to be arranged by him, Ayumi Hamasaki realized what it was like to be "alone" like an afterthought.

When she felt the loneliness and fear enveloping her heart, she couldn't help but stared at Shinichi Iwahashi.

Yanqiao Shenyi finished the phone call, raised his head, met her gaze, paused, and told her: "Wait a minute, the clerk will take you home first, Akina-san is waiting for you at home. There is also Xiaoguang."

"Aren't you going back?"

Ayumi's question was so reckless that Iwahashi Shinichi was caught off guard.When I came back to my senses, I said to her: "I have plans for the evening, and I have to attend several receptions."

Ayumi Hamasaki continued the impolite question: "Is it necessary to attend every reception?"

Yanqiao Shinichi's tone became more serious, "Of course."

"It's really not easy to be the president."

"I'm not the president anymore."

Hamasaki had a sharp tongue and asked him: "If you are no longer the president, do you still have to worry about the company's affairs?"

Yanqiao Shinichi was choked by her, unable to laugh or cry.

When the clerk came to report, Ayumi Hamasaki got up and said to Shinichi Iwahashi, "Then I'll go first."

Yanqiao Shinichi smiled, and replied, "See you later."

"Can you go back earlier?" Hamasaki asked him.

Yanqiao Shinichi denied it, "Maybe he will go back very late."

"But it's better to be earlier." The reason why Ayumi Hamasaki didn't realize that his words were impolite was probably because when he said these words, he didn't think about anything in his heart, just a pure expectation.

This also made Yanqiao Shinichi not care too much about her, and waved goodbye to her.

……

Hikaru Utada stood at the door of the room, watching Akina Mori clean up the room for Ayumi Hamasaki.

They were all girls living at home. When preparing a room for Ayumi Hamasaki, they naturally chose the one next to Hikaru Utada.Akina Nakamori put away the things prepared for the guest room and replaced them with various items specially purchased for the girl.

Take a fancy to Mori Akina to clean up Ayumi Hamasaki's room, as if she saw her preparing for her arrival.

"The arrangement is very cute, Ming Cai Jiang."

Utada Hikaru looked at the brightly colored room.Nakamori Akina is good at getting along with children. During the time Utada Hikaru lived in, the two got along well. In private, Utada Hikaru called her "Akina Sauce".

In fact, Iwahashi Shinichi already knew what Utada Hikaru called Nakamori Akina in private. For this reason, when the two couples were chatting, he joked and complained to his wife. Shi honestly called "Mingcai-san", which seemed that he was too serious.

Nakamori Akina teased her husband: "Xiaoguang can't call you 'Shinichi-chan'."

That's true, one side is called "Iwahashi-san" and the other is called "Mingcai Jiang", and they are still under the same roof. It sounds weird, and it seems that Yanqiao Shinichi is more serious.

Yanqiao Shen was so convinced by his wife's explanation that he turned a blind eye and became a serious Ojisan from then on.

"Xiaoguang and Ayu should get along well." Nakamori Akina turned around.

Utada Hikaru thought of the girl who looked fashionable and bright, but seemed a little bit awkward, and blinked, "Ayu and I are neighbors now."

Akina Nakamori was amused by her words, and didn't care about the fact that Hikaru Utada didn't agree to "get along well with Ayu".

In the evening, the clerk sent Ayumi Hamasaki back.In front of the entrance, there was still the luggage brought over with her.Nakamori Akina and Utada Hikaru were deciding on the menu for tonight, when they heard the sound, they got up and went to greet them.

The little dog Kenta barked twice, opened his legs, and wanted to run over to watch the excitement.

"Kenta~" Hikaru Utada called it in a low voice, beckoning the puppy to come to him.

The puppy ran two steps forward, then backed up and ran towards her.Hikaru Utada squatted down, touched the puppy's head, and blinked his cunning eyes.

The little dog who loves to join in the fun left her again and ran towards the entrance.There, Nakamori Akina was greeting and thanking Iwahashi Shinichi's clerk.

Ayumi Hamasaki stood in front of the entrance and was greeted by Akina Nakamori.A beautiful puppy ran over, stopped at Akina Nakamori's feet, barked at her, and tentatively ran over to sniff around.

"Welcome, Ayu~" Akina Nakamori smiled kindly.

...It's different from the Akina-san I saw on the stage, and it's also different from the Akina-san I saw when I was eating together.Ayumi Hamasaki thought.

In this way, he moved into the house of the president-san and his favorite Akina-san.At this moment, Ayumi Hamasaki felt something incredible.But the atmosphere full of family sense gave her a strong feeling of breaking into a family.

Ayumi raised his eyes and saw Hikaru Utada walking slowly towards him.Suddenly her heart beat faster.

……

The spring break is over, because Utada Terumi and Fuji Keiko are still continuing their trip to Africa, and Utada Hikaru's new semester enrollment has to be taken care of by Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina.

However, with the couple's wonderful way of getting along, no news is the best news, and news may set a record for the number of divorces.

Hikaru Utada was about to enroll, and Ayumi Hamasaki was also officially enrolled in the entertainment class of Horikoshi High School. Shinichi Iwahashi's clerk and Akina Nakamori's assistant were really busy for this.

After the admission of Ayumi Hamasaki was settled, a big event came to fruition.

Before Shinichi Iwahashi had time to consider the next arrangements for Ayumi Hamasaki, of course he would no longer be working as an actor. To become a singer, the necessary training courses would begin one after another.

But until Iwahashi Shinichi thinks that she can officially debut, during this period of time, whether she will live like an ordinary girl or engage in some entertainment activities, Iwahashi Shinichi still has not made up her mind.

Of course, it's best to ask Ayumi Hamasaki what she thinks after her life in Tokyo is on the right track.

Yanqiao Shinichi poached a girl from the Art Film Department, and this matter spread throughout the industry within a few days.

The Yiying Department gave up an unnamed newcomer who has not yet officially acquired, in exchange for more cooperation opportunities in the future, and is not dissatisfied with this.In the industry, there is someone else who really satirizes Yanqiao Shenxing's domineering behavior.

But no matter how we look at Shinichi Iwahashi's actions this time, the industry has cast a curious look at this newcomer, wanting to know what kind of girl is worthy of Shinichi Iwahashi's publicity.

The girl's name is Ayumi Hamasaki. She is a local artist from Fukuoka. She starred in TV Asahi's TV series "Twin Teachers" this season. This is public information and it is not difficult to know.What really makes the industry curious is how Shinichi Iwahashi views her.

However, Shinichi Iwahashi neither took her to meet the producer of the TV station, nor introduced her to people in the industry, completely hiding her behind him.This approach seemed mysterious at first, but gradually, the eyes of the industry turned away from it.

Thousands of groups of newcomers debut in the entertainment industry every year. In the record industry alone, hundreds of groups of singers debut or change their names to debut again. There are countless newcomers who have high hopes. , in fact, it is not enough.

In such a world, it is difficult to keep paying attention to a certain unknown person for too long, especially since she has been deliberately hidden.

The industry's attention to Ayumi Hamasaki came and went quickly, and the attention focused on her dissipated, which was exactly what Iwahashi Shinichi wanted.

Tetsuya Komuro, on the other hand, met Ayumi Hamasaki by chance in the recording studio. Now, after learning that this girl has officially signed a contract with Shinichi Iwahashi, when she went to the company to meet Shinichi Iwahashi to discuss the promotion of Hitomi Furutani's debut, I would like to say something to him by the way. Congratulations.

Although Ayumi Hamasaki had given Komuro Tetsuya the impression of being "troublesome" by chance, in fact, he didn't like this girl that much in his heart, but after all, he was someone Iwahashi looked up to seriously.

Furutani Hitomi's debut single has been produced, and the progress is smooth, as expected by Iwahashi Shinichi.After all, the singers Tetsuya Komuro handled were extremely efficient in the recording studio.

This has something to do with Tetsuya Komuro's emphasis on the characteristics of the singer's voice, but not on singing skills, but it is also a manifestation of Tetsuya Komuro's keen intuition and strong production ability.

In a sense, Tetsuya Komuro is the real studio tyrant.It's just that, unlike those old-school producers who used to say nothing and even cursed at singers, he is the kind of dictator who decides everything with a smile.

After the single is produced, a batch of promotional discs must be pressed and sent to TV stations and radio broadcasting bureaus, as well as to record sellers.After that, it is about arranging the publicity before the official release and waiting for the number of orders from the record seller.

There is Tetsuya Komuro's golden signature, Hitomi Furuya's debut has its own popularity, Shinichi Iwahashi and Tetsuya Komuro are both confident about it.

After the most important thing was finished, Tetsuya Komuro mentioned to Shinichi Iwahashi: "I heard that the kid I met in the recording studio signed a contract with the company."

Yanqiao Shin smiled, "Does Komuro-san also know?"

"After all, it's the first time that the all-around Iwahashi-san wants someone, so it's quite a topic." Tetsuya Komuro teased him.

Iwahashi Shinichi was used to this guy's venomous nature and didn't take it seriously.

"After signing her, what should I do next?" Komuro Tetsuya seemed a little regretful, "When I met that child last time, I didn't listen to her recording."

Tetsuya Komuro didn't even bother to hide the politeness in these words.

Shinichi Iwahashi knew what he was doing and responded: "Ayu is only 15 years old. He has to wait a few more years to make his debut."

Komuro Tetsuya nodded, and in order to show his closeness, he casually said, "This child's name is Ayu." He didn't even remember Ayumi Hamasaki's name, so it seemed that he had no interest in this girl from the beginning to the end.

Such an almost undisguised attitude seemed quite interesting to Iwahashi Shinichi.
