Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 666
In a world dominated by the men in black behind the scenes, it will inevitably appear clumsy to fight with one's own strength.

However, in the ensuing business meetings, once or twice, when Akina Nakamori showed a difficult attitude again, Mayumi Watanabe remained calm and spoke out to help her defuse the atmosphere.

The shrewdness and ability shown when supporting Yanqiao Shen, used to help others out of siege, also seemed calm and appropriate.Yanqiao Shen is most familiar with Watanabe Mayumi's actions, and after a while, he noticed her subtle kindness towards Nakamori Akina.

It's just that it may not be accurate to just describe this kind of support as good intentions.

Nakamori Akina instinctively felt that she was being cared for by Wanyumi Watanabe—just as she thought at first, Wanyumi Watanabe looked back at her because she sensed her resistance.

It's hard to say whether it's because she directly experienced her care, or because of her subconscious feeling after seeing her shrewdness and ability, that gave her the experience of being taken care of by this Watanabe-san.

Watanabe Manyumi has seen Nakamori Akina's embarrassment when he was forced by his father and brother but was unable to fight back, and now he can cooperate tacitly with Iwahashi Shinichi to resolve the problem lightly.

Nakamori Akina has complicated emotions facing such Wanyumi Watanabe.For the fact that Watanabe Mayumi took care of her, she couldn't say she was completely grateful.But this is not superficial and malicious to Wanyumi Watanabe, just like the kindness shown by Wanyumi Watanabe may not be complete and unthinking kindness.

She glanced at Mayumi Watanabe from time to time, seeing her smooth speech and behavior, and even couldn't help thinking in her heart, "It's powerful enough", she will never be as capable as this Watanabe-san in her life.

Even if you resist, you will not deny others because of it.This little thought is exactly what makes Akina Nakamori so cute.

But she obviously resisted Mayumi Watanabe's shrewdness, but she couldn't avoid receiving this shrewd and capable care.Not only that, the more she resisted Watanabe Wanyumi's shrewdness, the more Watanabe Wanyumi showed shrewdness and kindness.

Watanabe Mayumi noticed her resistance, and felt that Akina Nakamori was like a paper tiger, so she wanted to tease her deliberately.But the more she was like this, the more Nakamori Akina resisted.

But no matter how the paper tiger barks its teeth and claws, it's just looking at people.

Between the two women who only met a few times and never spoke alone, there is a subtle thing flowing.

This subtle thing turned into a thread, passing through Mayumi Watanabe's ease and Akina Nakamori's clumsiness.Let these two women with different thoughts in their hearts and these two unrelated qualities be strung together by this silk thread.

And although everyone has their own ideas, Wanyumi Watanabe does not dislike Akina Nakamori, and Akina Nakamori does not dislike Wanyumi Watanabe——

Only Iwahashi Shinichi was the one who suffered afterwards.

When the paper tiger opens its teeth and claws, it can only scare one person.

……

After the party is over, whoever leads the party and who is responsible for preparing the party here will be responsible for seeing off the guests.Wanyumi Watanabe was the first to come and the latest to leave.

If she doesn't leave, Yanqiao Shinichi, who is the central figure in today's discussion meeting, will not be able to leave immediately.He said goodbye to Warner and the Toshiba EMI staff, and Akina Nakamori also came to greet him before leaving.

After the two garlic masters greeted politely, Akina Nakamori left with the accompanying staff.But Mr. Nozaki of Kenyin was not in a hurry to leave, he caught Yanqiao Shinichi and chatted with him for a while before leaving.

Just as Shinichi Iwahashi breathed a sigh of relief, Mayumi Watanabe came over and discussed with him, "Shall we go for a walk together later? Shinichi-kun."

"what."

Yanqiao Shinichi looked at her and agreed.So, just after eating Wanyumi Watanabe's meal, she picked up her car again.

"Nakasen-san people are very assertive."

In the car going back, Watanabe Wanyumi said so.She chose her words carefully, "But this kind of opinion is an opinion that leaves no room for retreat."

"Leave no way out."

Yanqiao Shinichi thought for a while.

"When we make a project, we always have to consider that even if this round doesn't work out, we can have another chance to cooperate later. But Nakamori-san is different. When she is making this project, she only considers the current situation. I don’t have the idea that we may still have to deal with each other in the future, so we should leave room for discussion.”

Because he didn't consider the way out, he was extremely unwilling to give in, and he didn't care whether he would offend others.

In other words, from the perspective of the men in black, the industry has no permanent friends or enemies.But Akina Nakamori gave Manyumi Watanabe the feeling that she had no concept of friends or enemies at all.

Wanyumi Watanabe glanced at Shinichi Iwahashi, "This kind of personality is enough to offend people in the industry."

It's okay when someone protects you and you are popular, otherwise, once you pass away, you will lose the value of being protected, and you will have to be eaten alive.

"However, assertiveness at work is a precious quality for artists." Mayumi Watanabe said the truth, "For artists, obedience to words is the least worth mentioning."

Iwahashi Shinichi did not expect to get into Watanabe Mayumi's car, and what awaited him was such a well-organized impression and analysis of Nakamori Akina.He may not agree with what Wanyumi Watanabe said, but he has to admire her old-fashioned vision once again.

He paused, and only said: "Just now you said a lot of good things for her."

Wanyumi Watanabe replied, "Women should help women."

In today's discussion meeting, she and Akina Nakamori were indeed the only two women present.But Mayumi Watanabe is obviously a pun.Yanqiao Shinichi didn't expect her to answer like this, and was taken aback for a moment.

When I came back to my senses, I said, "It's what you can say, and it's also what you can do."

"What did you say about me?" Wanyumi Watanabe showed an incredulous expression at his words.

The eyes of the two met, Yanqiao Shinichi didn't expect her reaction to be so strong, and he couldn't think of the source of her strong reaction, so he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Watanabe Wanyumi recalled her discovery at this meeting again, and gave him a nail that was neither soft nor hard, "I should say 'it's something you can do'."

Yanqiao Shinichi's heart skipped a beat.

What Watanabe Mayumi said had no beginning or end, but Iwahashi Shinichi understood it as soon as he heard it.Hearing a pun, it was hard to pick up the words for a while.After a short moment of hesitation, Mayumi Watanabe suddenly laughed again, "I was just kidding you."

She smiled brightly, but it seemed like she was deliberately ending the topic.

Yanqiao Shenyi told her to be stunned for a while, and had nothing to say, followed her words, showing a wry smile, "I never knew that you are so good at making jokes." If this can be regarded as a joke.

Mayumi Watanabe answered him with ease, "Then I'll drive it a few more times in the future."

"Forgive me." Yanqiao Shen shook his head again and again.

Watanabe Wanyumi saw his expression of being helpless with her, and found it very interesting.

Thinking of Yanqiao Shinichi's mood, she still didn't want to embarrass him.Even if everyone else couldn't understand why he did this, she could understand why Shinichi Iwahashi made such a choice.

"It's something you would do".

Although this matter is not appropriate, Wanyumi Watanabe really thinks so, so she is unwilling to say anything more.There was a layer between the two of them, and they didn't speak.

She lowered her gaze, glanced at Shinichi Iwahashi's knee, and changed the subject casually, "I have something to ask you."

"what?"

"It's about ZARD." Wanyumi Watanabe turned the topic back to business.

Yanqiao Shinichi corrected his sitting posture, showing his businesslike ability, "What's wrong with ZARD?"

Speaking of business, the atmosphere in the car suddenly changed.

Only the driver who has no emotion, no matter what kind of atmosphere there is among the people behind, is indifferent and drives silently.

"How do you plan to arrange ZARD's partners?" Wanyumi Watanabe was curious.

Shinichi Iwahashi wanted to let young people like BOLAN cooperate with mature and glamorous enka singers, and prepared Nakamori Akina with a variety of styles for ORIGINAL LOVE.So who will ZARD cooperate with?

Up to now, he has discussed so many different aspects of the project, but he has never touched ZARD and left the band aside.

"It's difficult." Shinichi Iwahashi said to her, "First of all, it's obvious that Sachiko-san is not suitable to share the stage with an idol."

Her stiff dancing posture and shyness that can't cope with the camera, if she has become a big star, she will be praised by the audience for her kawaii if she does this once in a while.

But now this is just about to enter the rising stage, playing like this is making life difficult for yourself.As for finding an idol with excellent singing skills to form a band with her, that would be unnecessary.

"It doesn't seem appropriate to talk to an enka singer..."

Watanabe Wanyumi followed his words and pondered.As a result, Shinichi Yanqiao suddenly gave him a flash, "I thought of another idea."

"what?"

"We took ZARD out of the project." Iwahashi Shinichi said, "ZARD was not allowed to participate in the production of singles. Of course, it is not to exclude them completely."

"Let everyone from ZARD provide songs to the participants of the project." He didn't make any jokes and went straight to the point.

Mayumi Watanabe didn't expect him to say that, so she reacted.

"ZARD's music style is actually nothing special. It's just a pop band that can sing in karaoke. However, their style on stage is quite special. To be honest, in a sense, it is centered on Sachiko-san band."

Shinichi Iwahashi and Wanyumi Watanabe said, "Sachiko-san's characteristics on the stage are too strong. I really want to cooperate. I only sing in the recording studio and say that if I perform live, no matter what singer I cooperate with, the effect will not be much better. go."

If the effect is not good, it is better not to do it.

"When I think of it, I come out." Mayumi Watanabe shook her head after hearing what he said.

However, what he said was not unreasonable.

"Let ZARD contribute music to the idols participating in the project." Shinichi Iwahashi already had an idea in his heart.

Sachiko Puchi's appearance is quite beautiful, allowing her to provide songs as a lyricist is also a way to deepen the public's impression of her "talented and powerful beauty lead singer".

"You are the chief producer." Watanabe Wanyumi said so, which is already tantamount to acquiescing.

"But you are the BOSS." Yanqiao Shenyi joked about her.

Watanabe Wanyumi's laughing point grows on this word.

"However, instead of letting ZARD directly participate in the planning, I have another idea to increase the popularity of the band." said Iwahashi Shinichi.

"what?"

Iwahashi Shinichi didn't answer, but suddenly mentioned, "Manyumi-san, Kikuchi Momoko-san is a fan of ZARD."

"..."

Mayumi Watanabe was a little speechless, but she followed his words first and continued, "I remember the band's debut single, and I owe it to Kikuchi-san to help promote it."

"Yes, thanks to her."

"Before, Kikuchi-san called the company and wanted to go to ZARD's concert. I sent tickets to her office for the band's contacts next month's tour."

"This time, I came up with the idea of ​​opening up the band's popularity, thanks to Kikuchi-san's inspiration, thanks to her." Yanqiao Shinichi didn't sell it just now, and waited here.

Watanabe Wanyumi looked at his face, and thought to herself, it's really unpleasant for a man to play tricks.

……

As an artist, you don't need to report every day like ordinary office workers.When I have work, I may start from home early in the morning, and when I am not working, I arrange my own time.

Kikuchi Momoko doesn't have much work recently compared to before, so she has more time for herself.There is less work, not because the period after the new year is too fast, but because the contract has not yet been decided.

Her contract with the firm will end at the end of September, but up to now, she has not decided to renew the contract.If she didn't renew the contract, the firm didn't dare to take her a job rashly, lest there would be a dispute over the work contract.

On the other hand, it is uncertain that she will continue to work in the company, and the firm will not give her too much input.

The current office has taken a lot of wrong steps in the previous plan for her. After the previous Yuejiu TV series was broadcast, although Kikuchi Momoko contributed to the TV series, she did not get any benefits from it.

Take out the great determination of transformation to participate in the filming of TV dramas, but did not get ideal feedback.This made Kikuchi Momoko even less confident about the firm.

And since her debut, her manager Iwasaki Jiayunmi has been taking care of her, and she is also very enthusiastic about her during this time.Previously, Iwasaki Kayunmi was quite reserved, but after learning about Kikuchi Momoko's delay in renewing her contract with the firm, her desire to persuade Kikuchi Momoko to be independent became more straightforward.

Do you want to go independent with Gayun Misang?Kikuchi Momoko is still a little wobbly.

Recently, Kikuchi Momoko has received the best response and her favorite job is to shoot an advertisement for Fujifilm's disposable cameras.

In the afternoon, the manager of the firm called Kikuchi Momoko.

"Peach Butter, GenZo sent us the records and concert reception tickets." The manager asked her if they would send the things to her residence, or if she went to the office to pick them up.

Earlier, when Kikuchi Momoko called Iwahashi Shinichi to ask for tickets, she had already greeted her agent.At this time, he received something from the record company, and the manager was not surprised.

Kikuchi Momoko was in a good mood when she received the call.
