Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1486 Chapter 1487. Thoughtful

When he decided to come to Tokyo, Hamasaki once made a declaration to Shinichi Iwahashi, "I am who I am." Ayako compared her to Namie Amuro, which aroused the rebellious feeling in her heart.

However, if she insists on just being herself, why would she keep focusing on another person? Hamasaki retorted to Ayako, but he felt his heart sting slightly.

Ayako didn't know what Hamasaki was thinking and laughed loudly: "Ayu is really weird." However, although she was amused by Hamasaki's pretentiousness, she did not dislike Hamasaki's character in her heart. .

At this time, Ayako suddenly lowered her voice and said to Hamasaki Ayumi: "This Amuro-chan, her producer may be Komuro-san."

Hamasaki's reaction was like hearing a fantasy.

Ayako showed a mysterious smile and said word by word: "This is just hearsay."

Ayako, a young model, has only been around the circle of the entertainment industry, but has never really entered this circle. But she is superstitious about the gossip she hears and doesn’t care whether it is true or false, only whether it is sensational.

Ayumi Hamasaki expressed doubts: "GENZO has never launched a girl group."

Ayako spoke plausibly, "Ryoko-chan isn't a GENZO singer, is she?" She winked at Hamasaki Ayumi, "Ayu-chan, you'll know if you listen to their songs. It's a complete studio style."

"Even so..." Hamasaki Ayumi felt that Ayako's guess was outrageous.

If the producer of SUPER MONKEY'S was Tetsuya Komuro, he would definitely have written the production information on the record. There is no need for people like Ayako to keep the gossip secret. But this friend of hers seems to be quite superstitious about conspiracy theories and the like, and is addicted to guessing. He also hypothesized that maybe it was Komuro-san who concealed his identity as the producer.

The more Ayumi Hamasaki listened, the more outrageous he felt. Seeing her friend showing boredom, Ayako finally stopped and changed the subject, "However, Ayu-chan is quite concerned about GENZO. She knows it so well."

No one knows yet about her relationship with GENZO.

Ayako thought of something and joked: "No wonder the person Ayu-chan wants to meet is Iwahashi-san." She stretched and discussed with Hamasaki: "Let's go play again this Friday."

According to her information, the "MAX-san" who runs the disco often comes to the store on Friday nights. Maybe Tetsuya Komuro will come over that day to support him. Ayako is eager to try.

"Of course," she looked at Hamasaki: "Maybe Iwahashi-san, whom Ayu-chan wants to meet, will go with Komuro-san."

Ayako may not be dreaming of becoming a star, but she must be dreaming of meeting a big shot. The colorful entertainment world, for Ayako, is all about seeing all the glamorous things.

In Ayako's words, "MAX-san" is also a legendary figure who used his whims to create such a disco park. However, Hamasaki Ayumi had no interest in this person, but he was thinking in his heart whether Tetsuya Komuro or that "MAX-san" would go. Iwahashi Shinichi would definitely not go that day.

This Friday, Shinichi Iwahashi is going on a business trip, and the next day, on Friday, Akina Nakamori is also going on location. Assistant Momoi once again came as a guardian to take care of the two children and a puppy who were left behind.

……

On Thursday morning, Hamasaki stood in the living room, looking at Shinichi Iwahashi who was holding coffee, and suddenly asked him: "Iwahashi-san, have you ever heard of an artist named Namie Amuro?"

Iwahashi Shinichi raised his eyes and looked at her, "What?"

You can tell from his expression that he has never heard of such a person. Hamasaki's sudden curiosity got the answer from his face before he even asked, which made him feel a little bored. But she also knew in her heart that this was actually expected.

Thinking of this, she raised her voice and said, "My classmates said that Amuro-chan is very popular recently."

"Is she a girl idol?" Shinichi Iwahashi looked at her with interest, "Ayu also pays attention to her?"

Hamasaki denied: "No interest." Iwahashi Shinichi smiled at her answer, "I don't pay attention, but I keep her name in mind." He thought for a moment and judged: "Since it's not Namie Amuro, If it makes you remember it deeply, there may be something else that keeps it in your mind."

He got to the point with just one sentence. Hamasaki was seen through so easily that he couldn't help but show defensiveness.

"Nothing." Hamasaki Ayumi made up her mind not to let Shinichi Iwahashi guess what she was thinking.

Iwahashi Shinichi had no choice but to change the subject and told her: "Akina-san and I are going out in the next few days, so you have to be good."

Ayumi Hamasaki spoke sharply: "Do you also tell Xiaoguang like this?"

... Xiaoguang is much more worry-free than you.

Ayumi Hamasaki also knew the unintended meaning of Iwahashi Shinichi's words. Before Iwahashi Shinichi could say anything, she said, "Don't worry." Without looking back, she left a trail of footsteps behind.

What are you worried about?

Should I rest assured that she will be well-behaved, or should I rest assured that she will be as misbehaved as Shinichi Iwahashi fears?

Iwahashi Shinichi listened to the footsteps and walked away. The Namie Amuro mentioned by Hamasaki aroused his interest. A new hot topic among teenagers...

On this day, Shinichi Iwahashi arrived at the company and asked the clerk to find relevant information about Namie Amuro.

The document was sent to his desk, and Shinichi Iwahashi discovered that this person was a member of the girl group called SUPER MONKEY'S.

When that girl group debuted, Shinichi Iwahashi paid attention to it because he was a newcomer to VERMILLION Records. However, the group made little splash after their debut and was quickly forgotten by him. Unexpectedly, the girls actually became more down-to-earth and gained popularity.

The group's latest single has entered the top ten of the charts for the first time, a huge breakthrough.

This Amuro Namie is the central figure of the group. In addition to the group, she also serves as a model for girls' fashion magazines and has appeared in movies. Many people even only know Amuro Namie and don't know the group behind her. Such a popularity imbalance, with the central member having the overwhelming majority of attention, is, to a certain extent, very eye-catching.

Iwahashi Shinichi thought for a while, picked up the phone, and asked the clerk to buy a copy of SUPER MONKEY'S' latest single.

On the cover of the record, these girls from Okinawa show energetic and exaggerated smiles to the camera. The person occupying the center position is Namie Amuro.

A girl with chocolate-colored skin who looks a bit adult. Just looking at the photos, you can feel that there is an invisible wall between her and the other members of the group. Putting such a girl in the group seems a bit nondescript.

Iwahashi Shinichi pulled out the inner pages of the record, browsed it, and pressed the play button on the record player. The melody sounded, and he couldn't help but think of a name.

Tetsuya Komuro.

Totally Tetsuya Komuro's style.

Of course, Shinichi Iwahashi soon realized that this was not a piece or arrangement composed by Tetsuya Komuro. But if you show it to ordinary listeners, they might not be able to easily tell the difference between SUPER MONKEY'S and other small studio singers.

In any case, the style of the group is consciously imitating Tetsuya Komuro's style.

Is it because of this that the popularity started to rise?

Iwahashi Shinichi glanced through the inner pages of the record and saw a familiar name in the production information. The chief producer is Shunichi Baba of VERMILLION Records.

Iwahashi Shinichi looked at this name with a thoughtful expression.
