Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 375
(two chapters in one)
For several days, Yanqiao Shinichi was thinking about what kind of feedback he should give to Yamauchi Kenichi.

How to turn ordinary into extraordinary, and find the unique characteristics of the two of them, this is the most important key.Kenichi Yamauchi found him on purpose, not just to make him find fault.

When a fault is picked out, a solution must be attached.

Let the two girls form a team in a hurry, and make their debut by covering European dance music. In this method, the obvious point is that they first want to catch the popularity of dance music, but the audience cannot be fooled casually.

Now is not the period when domestic pop music just started in the 60s and [-]s, and cover Western music was the mainstream. Not only is domestic pop music booming, but it is also easy for ordinary people to get in touch with authentic Western music.

The times have changed. The Peanut Sisters subtitle group was very popular at that time. Now, it is definitely not possible to have the Wink subtitle group intact.

In the same way, the era of wantonly covering Japanese pop music can only be frozen in the era when Japanese record companies are vigorously developing their business in the Mainland, Taiwan and Taiwan.

At that time, in order to save trouble and quickly occupy the market, it was the most convenient and effective to use local songwriters and songwriters who had already been confirmed in their base camp to rewrite lyrics and sing. way.

When this stage is over, even these former companies may merge, or close down, or change their doors, and the influence of Japanese pop music will be replaced by Omi and Korean music, and the era of cover singing will stop here.

In the 60s, covering Western music was a feature in itself.But now, it is necessary to find another selling point.

The song "CHA-CHA-CHA", Akemi Ishii, who fell silent immediately after becoming popular, and Yoko Oginome, who can continue to develop after "Dancing hero" and is still very impressive, the difference is that the latter has more characteristics, career Planning is also clearer.

Every year, at least hundreds of groups of singers and idols make their debuts. If you want to keep the crowd out and make a splash, your uniqueness is extremely important.

……

In the new week, on Wednesday, Shinichi Iwahashi received a call from Fuji TV producer Kameyama Chihiro, and learned that the ratings of the late-night show he proposed had soared to 8% for the first time this week, reaching a new milestone. Best score since its inception.

The late-night show had an unremarkable start, and such a performance was worth such a phone call.On the Fuji TV side, although Shinichi Iwahashi did not directly participate, he just gave an idea, but out of such a kind of respect, he talked to him about the situation of the program from time to time.

This is a kind of show of favor, a kind of respect for him, Yanqiao Shenyi knows it well, and accepts it politely.

Even so, he couldn't help thinking in his heart, he just wondered what kind of people would enjoy watching such a program.

He didn't watch the show at all, and he didn't know what the program team had planned, but anyway, since the medal has his role by default, it's a good thing to become popular.

"It's thanks to everyone from the Production Bureau and Mr. Akimoto." Shinichi Iwahashi complimented.

As a result, Kameyama Chihiro on the other end of the phone laughed when he mentioned Akimoto Yasushi's name, "Iwahashi-san doesn't know yet..."

"What?" Shinichi Iwahashi was a little puzzled.

Kameyama Chihiro also joined the Harmful Cat Association and made a fool of himself, "Yanqiao-san will find out in two days." Hearing this tone, he looked like he was watching something exciting.

With doubts, Yanqiao Shinichi put down the phone.

After waiting for two days—it really was two days, Yanqiao Shinichi passed the newsstand on the way to the station, and accidentally glanced at the magazine notices posted today, but was attracted by one of the gossip news.

The source of the news is "FRIDAY". That's right, it's the "FRIDAY" that was beaten and smashed by Brother Kitano Takeshi and his younger brother. This book is famous for its high-definition large pictures. Most of the information is probably a comprehensive weekly magazine made up.

One of the items that was announced with great fanfare by this issue of "FRIDAY" is the news that former Kitten Club producer Yasushi Akimoto and former Kitten Club member Takai Asami are in love.

Yasushi Akimoto, a fat young man, has he gnawed grass on the side of the nest?

Yanqiao Shinichi's first reaction was so simple.Immediately, I couldn't help but feel very fresh. After all, someone I knew actually became the protagonist of a weekly gossip magazine. Not everyone can experience this kind of thing.

For a moment, I thought of Kameyama Chihiro's tone of watching the excitement on the phone, the excitement of the fat young man was really nice.

After the strange idea popped up, Yanqiao Shinichi decisively bought a copy of "FRIDAY", ready to enjoy the gossip of the fat young man head-on, and taste the writing style of the "FRIDAY" reporter by the way.

The editorial department that could be smashed by Takeshi Kitano, for some reason, rushed forward with a feeling that it would be very accurate and explosive.

Open the magazine and go straight to the topic. The high-definition big picture of "FRIDAY" magazine captured the picture of the fat young Yasushi Akimoto and Asako Takai getting in the same car. Not only that, Yasushi Akimoto also helped Asako Takai with a gentlemanly demeanor. To this extent, no matter how you look at it, there is a very playful meaning.

"One night in May, outside a popular restaurant in Azabu..."

The reporter of "FRIDAY" has a simple style of writing, but the description between the lines is quite graphic. As a gossip weekly, this style of writing should be very popular with housewives, no wonder the number of publications is among the best.

However, although the gossip was about the producer and the idols he produced under his hands, the Kitten Club has been disbanded for more than half a year, and the group is gone, so there is no need to worry about fans because the producer ate his own cabbage to resist.

Destructive power -1.

In the article, Asako Takai’s name is followed by the age (21). When she joined the Kitten Club, she graduated in March 1987, and the Kitten Club was disbanded half a year after her graduation.

Although it is difficult to say whether he hooked up with the fat young man when he was still in the kitten club or only after graduation.

Take a hundred steps back, even if you are still in the Kitten Club, you will be able to get in, but there are no pictures and no truth at that time.And in the photos taken now, Asamiko Takai is 21 years old, no matter where she is, she is at an age where she can decide on her own life and no one can control her. Therefore, at least it is not a 30-year-old fat young man who shoots an underage kitten. something illegal.

Destructive power is -1 again.

The two of you are not married and I am not married. It doesn’t matter what words are indecent or plundering love. The destructive power is -1 again.

Seeing this, Yanqiao Shinichi already understood why Kameyama Chihiro had the attitude of waiting to see the excitement when he mentioned this matter. In fact, this matter is really not a thing at all for the people behind the scenes in the industry. Something worth mentioning.

To be honest, such an ordinary relationship is already very rare for the producer.

At most, it's a bit unpleasant, and this point of "FRIDAY" is also deliberately put on the title as a selling point, that is, the relationship between the two former producers and idols of the same group.

Anyway, it's a bit of a violation of professional ethics to gnaw on the grass beside the nest, especially if the other party is an idol.

As soon as Yanqiao Shenyi saw the end, the reporter only mentioned a few words that were lethal.First of all, Asako Takai’s fan club was just established on the 23rd of last month——

"On May 5, Gao Jing officially established a fan club, which is the time to show his strength."

Well, when the fan club was first established, it was revealed that she was in a relationship with the former producer. Asako Takai's fan base was also brought when she was a member of the Kitten Club, so her fans might have opinions.

Destructive power +1.

Then came the next sentence, "After the disbandment of the Kitten Club, Akimoto was still active as a script producer on Fuji TV. Where will these two people go next? Has Akimoto, who created the Kitten Club, ever thought about it? Will there be such a different kind of spark with the members of the group?"

This passage seems to be a bit of a sarcasm to ridicule Akimoto Yasushi's attack on the idol he made, and the destructive power is +1.

But to sum it up, it is still a piece of gossip that can only entertain the public.

There is no loss for Yasushi Akimoto, a fat young man hiding behind the scenes. If he is affected, it is Asako Takai who has established a fan club and is ready to let go of his hands and feet and do a serious job.

……

As soon as Yanqiao Shen finished reading the report, he still felt a little unsatisfactory in his heart.

It's a pity that it is "FRIDAY", which specializes in entertainment and gossip. If this is published by a brain-drenched magazine such as "Weekly Wenchun", it will have to diverge again, and it will be dragged to other places to attack fat young people. How can it be so easy? Let him go.

However, leaving aside the biggest selling point of former producers and idols who have produced them, the whole news is plainly about a second-tier behind-the-scenes person dating a second-tier idol. It's really not worth their stalking, even if you set your sights on the entertainment industry, it must be at the scandal level.

In the final analysis, the reason why I feel more interesting is because this report is too ordinary.

However, watching the excitement is watching the excitement, and after watching the excitement, Yanqiao Shinichi thought of another thing.

That is, although it seems to be just ordinary love gossip, how will the public treat such news after it comes out?
If there is a substantial loss, it may be that Asako Takai will disappoint the fans because of her love. However, apart from the fans, one must also consider that through this news, I have once again seen the fact that "idols can do everything". public.

And this kind of "knowledge" is actually an invisible influence.

Idols have never been people on the cloud, especially after entering the 80s, the divinity of idols has become less and less, and they will eventually become people who are no different from ordinary people.

Under such circumstances, the truly "dream-like" idols are farther and farther away from the mainstream style.

Iwahashi Shinichi closed the magazine and stuffed it into his purse.The bag contained the videotapes of Wink's two performances.He was about to take the tape to the studio and show it to others.

Magazine hits the video box and reminds him of the dry "Wink" of the two girls in Wink.If you use that kind of "Wink" to communicate with the audience, it will only make the audience laugh.

"Wink" that makes the audience laugh, it's better not to do it.

Don't do it?

Yanqiao Shinichi smiled at such an idea.

In any case, idols are actually a profession with a strong sense of service. Whether they always have a smiling face or interact with the audience, the relationship between the idol and the audience is like throwing a bouncy ball from one side to the other. , always get a response.

The two girls, Wink, "Wink" are not doing well, and their expressions are not natural enough. As idols, they are obviously not "professional" enough.

Of course, these are common problems of newcomers, more or less.As long as you practice, sooner or later you will become an orthodox idol who has a sweet smile and can respond beautifully to the audience.

But for these two blank sheets of paper, the more orthodox it is, the more it means to lose sight of everyone.

Yanqiao Shenyi turned over and thought about the idea of ​​"it's better not to do it" that came up just now, and a somewhat absurd idea popped up in his mind.

If they were really told not to do it, and to give up being professional idols, what would be the effect?

……

He doesn't laugh, and he doesn't flatter the audience. Although he is called Wink, he will never "Wink" to the audience.

If you want to talk about cold-faced idols, Momoe Yamaguchi is the first thing that comes to mind.A icy face, a teenage girl singing colorful lyrics with a deadpan face, this contrast is unforgettable.

However, the point of cold-faced idols is not to offend the audience.

Even if you don't flatter the audience or interact with the audience, you have to use another way to give the audience a reasonable explanation with a cold face.

It's not a verbal reason. For example, this person can't smile naturally. If he said this to the audience, he would only be considered unprofessional by the audience and be kicked off the stage.

This kind of reason should be a convincing thing with a cold face and a cold face, even more attractive than a smile.

These two girls, Wink, if they are really made to be a group different from the sweet idols, and they are required to sing songs with strong and brisk rhythms with a cold face and then sing and dance vigorously?I'm afraid I can't dance.

If they are to be handsome idols, it seems that they can't be handsome.If they are asked to make fun of it, they can't imagine how they can do it with a cold face - if that's the case, it will really become a manga combination.

As if there was a jigsaw puzzle in front of him, Shin Iwashi tried piece by piece, trying to find the right piece, but there still seemed to be a little bit of inspiration missing.

……

In the evening of the same day, Shinichi Iwahashi received a call from Yasushi Akimoto's office.

When I called back, the call was transferred to Yasushi Akimoto himself.The chubby young man Akimoto Yasushi asked with a smile on the phone: "Have you seen "FRIDAY"?"

"I've seen it." Iwahashi Shinichi replied, "It really deserves to be "FRIDAY."

"Haha!" Akimoto Yasushi said while laughing, "The first time I watched "FRIDAY", then I can be called my friend."

Your method of identifying friends is quite unique.Yanqiao Shen thought about it.

"Since we are friends, why don't we come out to play together tonight?"

First set up a trap to say that they are friends, and then come out to play together if they are friends. The fat and fat youth is quite slippery.

However, there was no unreasonable party invitation from the fat youth, and Iwahashi Shinichi still agreed.

At nine o'clock in the evening, according to the agreement, go to the meeting place.

　The fat young man gnawed on the underage sister-in-law Qiu and was exposed by Wenchun and hired someone to break Wenchun reporter's legs. This is a nonsense
