Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 994 994. Wonderful Gift
Tonight, apart from DREAMS COME TRUE, which both mother and daughter are looking forward to, there is also Junko's favorite male idol group SMAP.

Two years ago, when Junko was watching the Red and White Song Concert, she was deeply impressed by a beautiful boy in the Hikari Genji dance troupe.One time this fall, when I turned on the TV, I saw him again on a variety show.

But this time, the boy and the members of his dance troupe have a new identity, not just GENJI's foil, but Johnny's new idol group "SMAP".Then Junko also knew that the beautiful boy who looked like a radiant man was named Kimura Takuya.It's a very handsome and hearty name that matches his image very well.

For Junko, just life takes away most of her time. Even if she likes a certain star, she can only catch a glimpse occasionally, and cannot devote too much energy to pursue it.Perhaps because of this, she often finds someone she likes among the artists who are intensively exposed and promoted on TV, as her favorite for a period of time.

The time to rest is rare, liking a star that you can see when you turn on the TV is a relaxing pastime, and it is also a little happiness that you can touch with your hands.

The reason why I like Hikari GENJI, on the one hand, is that Junko is tempted by the youthful vigor, and on the other hand, it has something to do with Hikari GENJI's popularity all over the country since his debut, and he can see them anytime, anywhere, anywhere.Of course, it's also because teenagers can be seen everywhere, and they hold this vigor in front of Junko with both hands, without her needing to discover it by herself.

But Takuya Kimura is different.He didn't hold himself in front of Junko with both hands, but Junko discovered it with his own eyes in a casual glance, and remembered it in his heart.

Since Junko was still a student, Johnny has gradually become a representative of male idols, whether it is the youth team, the male fighting group, or just GENJI, they are all idols that you can see when you turn on the TV.

When SMAP debuted, Junko felt that this group would receive as much attention as the idols that Johnny has launched over the years, and she also thought that even if it could not reach the level of GENJI, it must still be a first-line idol.

However, SMAP did not become popular as quickly as their predecessors in recent years. Even though they appeared in the special program of MUSIC STATION tonight, several members were not taken seriously.

There are two teenagers in the group, they look like they are still children, and they stand beside them obediently during the conversation.On the contrary, the captain, Masahiro Nakai, was not in a hurry when facing a big man like Tamoli.Takuya Kimura, whom Junko cared most about, stood quietly aside. Although he was only a high school student, he looked reliable.

Junko suspected it was because those two were foils for the kids, but felt it was more than that.

Maybe it's because Kimura Takuya discovered it with her own eyes, rather than him holding his hands in front of Junko, it's rare for Junko to feel a little bit of a real star chaser towards this group and this boy.Although SMAP did not become popular, Junko bought a poster of SMAP and posted it in the small Japanese room.

Because of this, when several teenagers stood on the stage, the daughter recognized them at a glance, and said, "It's SMAP!"

This tone, as if the person who really likes SMAP is her and not Junko.

Junko smiled and continued, "That's right, it's SMAP!"

When it comes to young single mothers, the world often associates this identity with unreliable men, thinking that they have some kind of penchant for pinning their affection on ethereal objects.However, Junko, who lives a peaceful and simple life, has no connection with such associations.

Junko had also heard many such rumors.That woman worked so hard to make money, just to give it to the cowherd in Kabukicho.Which single mother pretends not to know even if her child is being abused by her cohabiting boyfriend.

At this time, Junko was subtly able to express her understanding after listening to the experiences of these fellow travelers.Then I was sure again and again in my heart that because of the existence of her daughter Maiko, the little things she got along day and night, and the little happiness, she was rich in heart and spirit despite being poor.

Junko likes SMAP, and Maiko also seriously watches the boys jumping and jumping on TV.Later, when it was Hikari GENJI's turn to play, Maiko asked Junko, "Hikari GENJI and SMAP, which one does mom prefer now?"

Junko laughed at the question of calling her daughter.

Children grow up fast and learn fast. Last year and this year, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, they look the same all the time. Their minds are getting smarter and their questions are getting smarter and trickier.

"That's it."

Junko acted like she was thinking hard, which made her daughter couldn't wait any longer before revealing the answer, "Sure enough, it's a little bit more SMAP."

Maiko laughed loudly, and told Junko the newly learned words, "Mom likes the new and dislikes the old."

"It's amazing ~ Maiko." Junko leaned forward to her daughter, face to face with her, and praised.When a mother and a daughter laugh, they are exactly the same.

In the small Japanese room, there is never a shortage of laughter.

Finally, until DREAMS COME TRUE appearance.Like exchanging orange petals in their hands, Junko also smiled and said to her daughter, "It's Kirin-san."

Today is no exception, the giraffe man is wearing his hood, hiding his true face under the hood.Junko thought of the little discovery her daughter told her just now, and her childish simple association, and subconsciously recalled the face of the producer Shinichi Iwahashi.Looking at the physique of the giraffe man, even if he has a face like the producer Shinichi Iwahashi's, it's not too abrupt.

Junko thought so, and suddenly smiled.I couldn't help thinking, when I looked at the giraffe man, I thought of Shinichi Iwahashi.Such an out-of-the-ordinary idea is probably only the mother and daughter of them.

On TV, Tamoli asked the band similar questions, nothing more than "a summary of this year's work" and "plans and prospects for the coming year".

DREAMS COME TRUE released an album and toured again this year, and the tour was still conducted in a two-person system, so it was inevitable that Tamoli would ask questions about the new system.

"Mr. KIRIN appeared here, and the venue suddenly became dreamy." Tamori joked.

Miwa Yoshida, who was at a loss for all kinds of tricks when she came to the interview session, took a small step back on stage when the host mentioned the giraffe man, and hid half of her body behind the giraffe man, as if playing hide-and-seek alone.

Masato Nakamura, who was in charge of speaking, had a decent conversation with the host when the lead singer Sang was enjoying himself.In a sense, the division of labor in this band is clear enough.

"Today we are going to sing Christmas songs." Tamoli confirmed to the band.

Masato Nakamura nodded, "Yes."

""Snow Christmas"." Tamori repeated the title of the song. "When it comes to Christmas Eve, I really think of snow. ... Yoshida-san was born in Hokkaido. Before that, he had been living in the country of snow."

Yoshida Miwa leaned out from behind the giraffe man, nodded his head two or three times like a chicken pecking at rice, but said: "However, when I wrote this song, I looked up at the night sky, and there was not even a single snowflake. See you."

Tamoli laughed hard, "So, is it because you didn't see snowflakes that you wrote "Snow Christmas"?"

On the TV screen, Masato Nakamura took over the topic again, complaining about Miwa Yoshida.Whether it was Tamori or Masato Nakamura, even Miwa Yoshida, who seemed to be moving because of nervousness on stage, was actually quite relaxed.

You can tell at a glance that this band is quite familiar with the host.

At the end of the interview, it was Masato Nakamura who spoke on behalf of the speaker and talked about plans and arrangements for next year.The release of the new album is already being arranged, and of course, a new themed tour will also be prepared.In short, bands that are in the stage of becoming popular just want to keep releasing records and holding concerts. On the one hand, they want to make more money when they are the most popular, and on the other hand, they also want to maintain their popularity.

Concerts in small venues that focus on viewing experience and interaction, the biggest role is to strengthen fans.

Of course, the new themed tour will still be carried out with a two-person system.

Before the show started, there was a commercial break.

The popular female star Miyazawa Rie, who is famous for shooting commercials and is now singing and acting, appeared on the screen.She's only 17, and her school uniform is just right.She sat at a western-style table, tasting the Pocky biscuits with a satisfied face.

Junko picked up the teacup and took a sip of barley tea.The tea is starting to warm up.

After the commercial was over, when we returned to the live broadcast, the stage had been set up, Yoshida Miwa was standing in the middle, and her two musicians were not far behind her, holding her in the center.The supporting musicians held the three of them in the center at a further distance.

"When the street lights are turned on, the falling snowflakes appear to grow in size."

"From the beginning, I kept staring at the sky until my neck hurt."

The simple and realistic lyrics, accompanied by Yoshida Miwa's singing voice, make Junko feel that what she is singing is a real scene that is happening.

Although she is in a small Japanese room at the moment, Yoshida-san on TV is in the middle of the spacious stage.

But it seems that somewhere in this world, in the past or now, there is this Christmas snow in the song. There is a girl alone in a small park, staring up at the night sky, watching the small park gradually fade away. Turned into a snowfield.

However, Junko suddenly thought, until the small park turned into a snow field, did the people she was waiting for never come.

"Even if you are with other people, I still want to show you this night scene."

……

The performance on the 21st ended, and the next day, the weather forecast cold air hit, and Tokyo will usher in snowfall.Before Christmas Eve, hearing the news that it will snow will undoubtedly bring another icing on the cake to Tokyo, which has been carefully decorated for Christmas.

However, the snow finally changed from a cold rain to snowflakes on the afternoon of the 23rd. After one night, there was almost nothing left in the morning of the next day, as if the snow girl had played a little joke with humans.

Christmas snow happened to fall on the 23rd, and people who had been anticipating it because of the news of the snow, probably experienced far more disappointment this time than before.Nevertheless, a short-tempered snow did not dampen Tokyo people's expectations for Christmas Eve.After all, not even the dreaded fact that it was a Monday dampened the enthusiasm of Tokyoites.

After the regular meeting in the morning, Shinichi Iwahashi packed his things, called Mitomo Iijima, and sent him to Sony's recording studio in Shinanomachi.The end of the year returns to the end of the year, DREAMS COME TRUE the job still has to work.

The band will release their next album in February after the Chinese New Year.The new album has been produced since the end of the band's theme tour this year, and the current progress has already passed more than half.

What is more special is that the song "Snow Christmas" will not be included in the new album.

I will make this decision, considering the integrity of the album.Christmas songs, this type of tunes, will not sound full of atmosphere until December is about to enter, when the winter atmosphere is strong.

If the song is included in the album, it will destroy the new message that the new album wants to convey to the audience, and it will also make this "Snow Christmas" lose its charm when it is played along with other songs on the album.

...The above is from Meihejiang's high-level discussion.

Of course, the reason why her proposal became a reality was because Iwahashi Shinichi also thought so.

Although Meihejiang is used to carrying a gun with a mouse, she sometimes has such accurate intuitions even when doing things with intuition.Of course, in addition to this, Yanqiao Shinichi also thought of not including this Christmas song in the album, and then selling this single during the Christmas month every year.

Now that we have decided not to include the song "Snow Christmas" in the album, we will release another pre-release single before the release of the new album.Christmas songs tend to sell best during the Christmas month, and sales naturally decline after the season.In the new year, a new single will be released in late January, and a new album will be released in late February.

This time, Sony's plan is to sell this album for a whole year and hit the top of the annual list.

At the end of the year, Shinichi Iwahashi has a lot of things to do, and the band's album production time is relatively plentiful. The reason why I came to the recording studio specially is one for work, and the other is to give this year's Christmas gift (very ugly version).

Every year at Christmas, Yanqiao Shinichi racks his brains to give some ugly and strange presents, and this year is no exception.

In addition to giving her a Christmas gift, he is still waiting to see what the three gifts Meihejiang prepared for him.

"I'm super confident!" Meihe-chan announced to him triumphantly when they met.

Considering the painting style of two people giving each other Christmas gifts, the more proud she is, Yanqiao Shenyi is undecided.Even so, after all, I have seen the big scene, so I still remain calm, "Then I will have to wait and see."

"Stay tuned." Meihejiang was full of confidence, went to find the big bag she brought, and took out a thermos from inside.

Yanqiao Shinichi was a little stunned, unable to think of what she was going to give, "Could it be your special Christmas dinner?"

Miwa-chan shook her head again and again, "It's a pity that Shinichi-kun lacks imagination."

Yanqiao Shinichi was speechless.

Mihe-chan was so triumphant, the invisible fox tail waggled again and again.She didn't keep it too close, and opened the thermos, "I'll show you!"

"Snow?"
