Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 741 741. The Road to Independence
The next time Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina meet again in the recording studio, the tense atmosphere of the previous disagreement has disappeared.The two greeted each other, sat down, and began to discuss calmly.

The staff in the recording studio breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly praised the two of them in their hearts.

It's business-like, really worthy of being a professional musician!
Daben is even more gratified, this Akina Nakamori has finally grown up a bit more tactful, and knows how to communicate and discuss calmly with producers who have different opinions from his own, instead of stubbornly demanding to follow his own ideas.

As a manager, he can rest assured now...

Don't worry!

After discussing for a while, they went into the studio to audition for two more times, and the two of them started talking to each other again, and the atmosphere gradually became uncomfortable.

With Akina Nakamori angrily said: "You bastard!"

Da Ben's complexion changed, and he quickly bowed to Yanqiao Shen, "I'm really sorry, Yanqiao-san." He kept apologizing while sighing in his heart.

Thanks to Yanqiao-san's good temper, he didn't turn his face and quarrel on the spot.Daben is very grateful to this Yanqiao-san in his heart.

The country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change.

It is of course true that we have agreed in private to discuss and explore together to find a solution that we all agree with.However, in practice, Nakamori Akina's quick temper and stubbornness, and Iwahashi Shinichi's authority in the recording studio, which is used to saying one thing, are unlikely to disappear just because of such an agreement.

When I really start to work, I will still be noisy when I should be noisy, and I will still get angry when I should get angry.

In a hurry, there is no way to curse out "You bastard!"

For Shinichi Iwahashi, Akina Nakamori is the most troublesome and difficult cooperation partner since he became a producer.

It's just that, because we have a private agreement to overcome difficulties together, even if we quarrel for a while because of the way the song is handled, we won't quarrel just to suppress each other like in the first quarrel.

The quarrel is the quarrel, no one has forgotten the agreement and work, while arguing and arguing, on the other hand, the progress is slowly advancing a little bit.During the day, the quarrel in the recording studio was over, and afterward, Yanqiao Shen went to her house again and again and asked this Taopu star to cook for himself.

Scolding "You bastard!" in the recording studio during the day, and cooking for "You bastard!" at night.

Yanqiao Shinichi felt complacent for two seconds, and then he heard Nakamori Akina directing him to do this and that.Although he was disliked because of his poor cooking skills, he did odd jobs quite easily.

Nakamori Akina snickered inwardly as he directed him around in the kitchen, complacent.

The two of them have their own busy schedules tomorrow, so come over to have a meal together, and Yanqiao Shinichi will go back later.

The delicious meal was full, the plates were removed, and Yanqiao Shen took the dishwashing job over.If before, Akina Nakamori felt that he should not be asked to work for herself, now, he would wash all the dishes.

It seemed that after the quarrel, the two of them became more comfortable and closer afterwards.

"By the way, I brought you something."

Iwahashi Shin wiped the washed dishes and asked Nakamori Akina to put them away, remembering.He went to get the things that were left in the entrance when he came in, and when he came back, Akina Nakamori was waiting there to apply hand cream for him.

"It's just washing the dishes." He politely refused.

"I've painted it too." Nakamori Akina pretended not to understand his tactful refusal, and raised her hand to show him.I had no choice but to let Taopusda smear and smear.

After she was done, she turned her attention to the paper bag brought by Shinichi Iwahashi.

"what is that?"

As he asked, he stretched out his hand and opened it to see that there were all records.

"Original Love." Iwahashi Shinichi said, "I would like to ask you to have a general understanding of the style of this band, maybe it will be helpful for future discussions."

Akina Nakamori said "Oh" and agreed, "I'll listen to it later."

"I'll listen to yours too..." Yanqiao Shinichi watched her flip through the band's album in her hand.

"Mine?" Akina Nakamori turned to look at him.

Yanqiao Shen nodded, "I don't think I know your music well enough."

"Hey~" Akina Nakamori drew his voice, "The producer-san doesn't know anything?" She was sarcasm, but no matter how she looked, she was teasing him.

Yanqiao Shinyi had no choice but to take her, "After all, I haven't bought your record yet." The ones I had on hand were all given to him by Nakamori Akina after the two got acquainted.As for the earlier time, he didn't know who Akina Nakamori was.

"Also, not a fan of yours," he said.

It's okay to say nothing.Akina Nakamori made him a little speechless with his excessive candor, squinted at him, and asked, "Then whose fan are you?"

After thinking for a while, I grabbed his arm, "You must not be the 'Holy Child School', right?"

"Of course not." Yanqiao Shinichi also became speechless.

During the years when Nakamori Akina and Matsuda Seiko were fighting in the ring, the fans were divided into two factions, all kinds of quarrels and wars, in order to compete, they would do anything, and there were not a few big fights.

"Forget it~" Nakamori Akina let him go.

"I won't mention it before, but it's not okay now. Listen to my music well, you know?" She put on a show.

This Taopu star's ability to climb along the pole is not bad.

Yanqiao Shen saw her little expression in his eyes, stretched out his fingers, and pinched her nose lightly.

The paper tiger grabbed his finger and wanted to say something. Seeing what he thought of, he said, "Huh?" and clenched that hand even tighter.

It's not that one of her records hasn't been bought yet.

Yanqiao Shinichi suddenly remembered that he had bought "The Hard to Break the Ship" by Akina Nakamori.

"What?" she asked.

Yanqiao Shinichi shook his head, "Tomorrow, I'm going to buy all your records since your debut and listen to them one by one." He said while looking at Akina Nakamori's amused expression.

Don't see what's so funny about that...

"Since it's the producer." He said while pulling his finger back.Akina Nakamori refused to give in, and held his hand in his hands. His movements and expressions were childlike, innocent and gentle.

"Listen well, producer-san." Akina Nakamori said, blushing.

... (pure dividing line)

Of course you have to listen well.

Afterwards, Shinichi Iwahashi really collected all the records released by Akina Nakamori since his debut.The albums in the early days of debut are not easy to buy now, so I told the clerk to make two extra trips.

Collecting all her records, looking at this kind of thing, it feels like a fan who has just started chasing stars.

Yanqiao Shinichi doesn't like buying records. At first, because of poverty, he had to rent them because he was stingy. But now, he thinks that records are bought to take up space, and almost all of them are rented.Most of the records on the shelves in the apartment are finished products sent to him after the release of the singer's records he produced.

Now, it's Nakamori Akina who cosplays a "fanatic fan".Although, after seeing all kinds of appearances of this Tao Pustar when he gets along with him in private, it is impossible to really become her fan.

In the early years, all she released were vinyl and tapes, but in recent years she has started to use CDs in various formats.

As soon as Yanqiao Shenyi got the record, he not only directly saw how she grew from a small chubby vegetable to a peach star through the record cover, but also saw the development and changes of the record industry from these various storage media.

He temporarily postponed the next recording meeting with Akina Nakamori to give both parties time to get to know each other.During this period, first listen to her records one by one.

During the period, I let ORIGINAL LOVE enter the studio, and according to his ideas, I made a demo, and I will show it to her when I see Akina Nakamori again next time, so that she can know what to expect.

In addition, Shinichi Iwahashi also had the idea of ​​making an ORIGINAL LOVE version of "Kiss" in advance, and only waited for the version led by Akina Nakamori to be released on the market.

For this reason, I also need to discuss with the band members to make a band version that will be released later.

Throughout August, half of Iwahashi Shinichi's work focus is on this project album.When people are busy, they run back and forth from one recording studio to that recording studio, from this company to that TV station.

Occasionally walking on the road, the heat waves from the asphalt road penetrated into the trousers, and the back was warmed by the sun... When surrounded by the heat of summer, I really realized that it is still summer.

However, after entering the air-conditioned room, the seasons are blurred again.

During this period, Sakamoto Fuyumi, Minano Yoko, and Asaka Yui, all three girls' songs were completed.Fuyumi Sakamoto breathed a sigh of relief for the time being—even though she knew that the matter was not over yet, she still had to learn to dance before the song was released.

The road of life is full of challenges.

She put aside the cooperation in advance, and went back to continue her performance of the Three Going to the Countryside.

It is true "three trips to the countryside".The audience of enka is more inclined to middle-aged and elderly people, so enka singers have been touring all over the country all year round.

As for Asaka Yui, after the cooperation ended, her office actively expressed to Iwahashi Shinichi that she hoped to cooperate with him in the future to produce a rock-style single for Asaka Yui.

Yanqiao Shinichi was so busy that he couldn't be free for a while.However, after the negotiation, it was suggested that the songwriter under him should provide the music for Yui Asaka——

Of course, if the song is sent over, whether to keep it or return it depends on whether it matches or not.

As for Yoko Minano, she continued to go back to complete the work arranged by the office.

The issue of the contract is still hanging there.On that day, Iwahashi Shinichi asked her about various details about Tokura Shunichi's investment in her name, and Minano Yoko didn't know what he was going to do.

It's not that there is no expectation for him in my heart, thinking that Yanqiao Shinichi can really give her a hand.However, on the other hand, I feel that even if he does nothing, he will not feel regretful or disappointed.

It's like choosing not to tell Iwahashi Shinichi even though he was coerced in reverse because of this planned album.

This young idol is so innocent.

……

The three girls were successfully completed. On the other hand, the progress of BOLAN and Ayako Fuji also progressed smoothly after both parties entered the role.

Then, there was also the collaboration between DREAMS COME TRUE and Yatsushiro Aki, and the song to be sung was also determined during this period.

The final song was written by Meihechan and Nakamura.

To be precise, after Meihechan hummed a melody, Nakamura-san created and completed it on this basis.Then, Mihe-chan will fill in the lyrics.

This kind of creative process, told Yatsushiro Aki, it made the other party feel incredible.

However, after successfully composing this collaboration song, Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamura brother coincided with each other, and both breathed a sigh of relief.Brother Nakamura succeeded in practicing and was able to complete the inspiration of Mihe-chan's impromptu inspiration.Miwa-chan is also able to write lyrics for Brother Nakamura's songs with ease.In this way, the road of the band is greatly broadened, with more possibilities.

For a band, what is most needed is a mature and vigorous creative ability.Now, DREAMS COME TRUE has stronger support whether it is hitting the top or staying at the top for a long time.

The band is still on tour, so it has been dragging away from entering the recording studio.In a few days, I will go to Sapporo, Mihechan's hometown, and accompany this little fox to return home.

Now, the stage and equipment have been shipped to Sapporo and stored in a warehouse, waiting for installation.

On the other hand, Yatsushiro Aki, after receiving the sent song, first recorded an audition tape and sent it over.After all, it is recognized as a first-class singing skill in the industry. Yanqiao Shen listened to it and admired it in his heart.

Yatsushiro Aki's current record company is Columbia Records, which has a huge enka business, but it was only transferred a few years ago.Before that, she first stayed at Tokuma Records for ten years, and then transferred to a small company called Century Records.

Changing the background of the record company, it was the director of Tokuma Records who was in charge of Yatsushiro Aki’s business, and her boyfriend at the time became independent from the company, and established a joint venture with others to establish Century Records, and Yatsushiro Aki also followed suit.

However, Yatsushiro Aki, who changed the record company, did not sell well, and the relationship with her boyfriend began to be at odds.

Afterwards, Yatsushiro Aki broke up with her boyfriend, and the new boyfriend she made was the son of Kazuo Tagaoka, the third generation of the Dero group, with thick black thighs.

With the help of her new boyfriend, Yatsushiro Aki got help from the queen of enka, Hibari Misora, who is the adopted daughter of Kazuo Tagoka, and she moved to Columbia under her recommendation. The biggest cash cow declared bankruptcy.

While changing boyfriends and record companies, Yatsushiro Aki also became independent from the original firm and established his own personal firm.

Needless to say, the establishment of a personal office has a lot to do with the agreement between the Music Association that "do not accept artists who have not terminated the contract satisfactorily".

At the beginning of independence, Yatsushiro Aki was also isolated by the Music Association. However, because the backing was strong enough, he survived smoothly and is still flourishing in the industry.

Looking at the independent roads of the seniors in the industry, if you want to be independent from the original firm, you must either have a strong backing, or you must have considerable strength to resist the encirclement.

Or, you have to consider whether to stop singing.
