On the unknown road, there may be various setbacks and failures, but my dream will continue until the end of the world.Kazuki Akiyama put down his pen and put away the paper.

It has been a while since a few incomplete lyrics appeared in the last dream, and today it is finally fully presented in front of Kazuki Akiyama.

Kazuki Akiyama has finally taken his first step. Although he only made his first move in the live house now, he has at least stepped into this circle, even if it is an underground music circle.

The most difficult step has been completed, the next step is to continue to accumulate popularity, and when the audience knows them, maybe an agency will contact them soon.

The scouts of those agencies have a very keen sense of smell and know that the underground music circle is crouching.I will always pay attention to whether there are newcomers appearing recently. Many well-known band groups started out in the underground, such as the popular Mimi CLUB this year.

Kazuki Akiyama is no longer anxious and hesitant. With this stage, I believe there will be more and more opportunities to appear on stage in the future.

After eating the breakfast he made, Kazuki Akiyama packed up and was ready to go out. Today, he didn't have to go to a convenience store to work, so he thought about going to Akihabara.

There used to be mainly sellers of electrical appliances, but now there are many shops for model toys, animation and related goods, and even maid cafes, which are very popular among young people.

Kazuki Akiyama likes this kind of feeling of walking the streets of Tokyo. You don’t have to deliberately pursue anything, just walk around, and occasionally find a small shop you are interested in, and enter it with the mentality of opening a blind box.

Harvesting joy is naturally good, and it doesn't matter if you are not interested.These can make him feel the real existence of this world.

As soon as he walked downstairs to the apartment building and hadn't entered the platform, the pager on his body started calling, and he took out the pager and glanced at it, it was an unfamiliar number.

Go to the phone booth and dial the number on it.

"Hello, this is Being Co., Ltd."

Hearing the company name reported on the opposite side, Akiyama Kazuki was overjoyed and held back the excitement in his heart.

"Hi, I'm Kazuki Akiyama."

"Hay, Akiyama-san, the demo you sent over has passed our preliminary selection. The president, To-san, would like to invite you to the company for a detailed discussion. When do you think it will be possible?"

"I can do it, do I need to prepare anything in advance?

"Then next Monday at ten o'clock in the morning? In addition, if Akiyama-san has other works, you might as well bring them along."

"No problem, sorry to trouble you."

"Looking forward to your visit!"

"excuse me"

Kazuki Akiyama hung up the phone, unable to restrain his excitement any longer. He thought that he still had a long way to go, at least until he became famous in the underground music circle before he would be approached by a company.

I didn't expect that I just ushered in my first stage yesterday, and a company came to contact me today. Kazuki Akiyama didn't know what the connection between the two was, but this was undoubtedly another opportunity for me, and it would even become a new opportunity for me. Turning point in life.

Picking up the phone and dialing Ishida Takumi's number, knowing the good news, the first person Akiyama Kazuki thought of was Ishida Takumi.Not only because I am the most familiar with him, but also because Ishida Takumi has been running back and forth for Kazuki Akiyama's music path during this period without any complaints.

Akiyama Kazuki is not a person who is heartless and ungrateful, he has long regarded him as the most reliable friend, and everything Ishida Takumi has done has been remembered in his heart.

After a while the call is connected,
"Takumi-kun, I received a call from Being company today, asking me to go to the company next Monday to discuss in detail, and there is a possibility of signing a contract!"

"Si Guoyi! Kazuki-kun, I finally waited until today, and I knew that sooner or later a company would discover your talent." Ishida Takumi was sincerely happy for Akiyama Kazuki.

"Speaking of which, if the contract is really signed, wouldn't Kazuki-kun soon have his own debut work? It's unbelievable to think about it!"

"Haha, it's still early. In short, it would be the best if we can sign a contract. The hard work during this period has not been in vain." Kazuki Akiyama sighed with a smile.

Ishida Takumi also laughed, knowing that he was too impatient.

"If Gen-kun and Yuta-kun know the news, they will also be happy for Kazuki-kun." Ishida Takumi thought of their original dream of the band was to debut and release their own songs.

Kazuki Akiyama couldn't help but think back to the bold words that he swore to release his own band's CD back then. As time passed, the dream may still be there, but people are not like that.

"Yeah, time flies so fast, it feels like it was yesterday." Kazuki Akiyama's eyes also showed reminiscence.

"Since that's the case, Kazuki-kun should prepare well. This is the closest we can get to our dream. It's not only your dream, but also the dream of all of us!"

Kazuki Akiyama felt the heavy blessing, but he didn't feel the pressure.If there is no dream, he may still feel guilty, but at this time he is full of confidence and calm.

"Don't worry, Takumi-kun, I will take it seriously!"

"You guys can actually say such swear words." Ishida Takumi thought of the taciturn Akiyama Kazuki back then, and now the calm and confident Akiyama Kazuki who became more and more cheerful, and felt that the world was impermanent.

"People will always grow." Akiyama Kazuki smiled and looked at the pedestrians coming and going.

"Suddenly being so serious, I always feel that you have some ulterior secret." Ishida Takumi muttered.

I remembered something again, "If you really want to sign a contract, you may not be able to go to the convenience store." Ishida Takumi continued.

Akiyama Kazuki didn't care, the only person he knew there was Aoki Ayako, and most of the others were just colleagues.

Thinking of that shy kawaii girl with short hair, Akiyama Kazuki smiled unconsciously.

"If the contract is really signed, then I can only resign with the store manager." Kazuki Akiyama has nothing to complain about the life of working in a convenience store, of course because there is nothing worth nostalgic about.

"It's true, there are still two days until next Monday, so don't go to the street to sing this weekend, prepare well, if there is anything that needs me, please let me know!" Ishida Takumi also rarely became serious.

"must!"

Kazuki Akiyama hung up the phone, and after thinking about it, he gave up calling his family. After all, he hadn't written his horoscope yet, so he simply waited for his first CD to be released before notifying his family.

Speaking of which, he hasn't contacted his family in the past few months. This has something to do with Hara's dull personality, and it just gave Kazuki Akiyama the process of adapting.

If he was surrounded by a family when he came up, Kazuki Akiyama, who was still an outsider at that time, might not be able to cope with this scene.

It's better to wait for the New Year before returning to my hometown. During this time, I will finish my own affairs first.

I originally planned to go to Akihabara for a stroll, but was interrupted by Being's phone call, so I simply went back to the apartment to tidy up and see if I could make other preparations.

Back in the apartment, he opened the desk drawer and took out a few manuscript papers and placed them on the table.These are all the songs that appeared in my dreams recently.

Later, Kazuki Akiyama took the time to check it out, and found no similar songs that had already appeared on the market.It seems that you can take it out with confidence, without worrying about copyright disputes.

From the first "Thank you" to the present, there are a total of 4 songs.Except for "Bamboo Field Lullaby", the other major debut singles are basically more than enough.

But in Kazuki Akiyama's mind, he still wanted to use the song "Thank you" as his debut single, not because it was so good, but because it was his first song inspired by a dream.

Whether it's the original family or the original band, they all have special meanings to me when I first came to this world, and it feels like the place where my dreams started.

As for the choice of Couple With, that is, the C/W song, I have some thoughts for the time being, but this is not the point. It is reasonable to prepare the title song first.

Although I have the lyrics and composition now, it is still relatively rough. The production of a CD is very complicated, and of course this is not something I can do alone.

Kazuki Akiyama just vaguely felt that if a musician wants to be an evergreen tree in the music scene, in addition to maintaining the enthusiasm for creation, he also needs to be versatile.

Not to mention that it is often seen that a singer often uses different instruments to perform on stage, but in many places a singer will appear on another singer's CD as a lyricist and composer.

Kazuki Akiyama also has to lament about this. Introversion has been flooding every industry for a long time. Some people can stand in the entertainment industry all the year round. It really is not just a matter of relationship or luck.

Putting his mind to rest, Kazuki Akiyama had a rough idea of ​​his future path, so he was going to go to an izakaya to have a drink or two, which was a celebration and a reward for his time.

Before going to the izakaya, I called the phone booth and asked the manager of the convenience store for another day off.Although the store manager agreed, it's not difficult to imagine from his attitude just now.Even if Kazuki Akiyama does not resign, it may not last long in the future.

Putting aside his thoughts and ignoring the disturbances from the outside world, today he just wants to enjoy the long-lost vacation leisurely.

PS: In fact, many songs have been lying in the music library for a long time before they are released. The author cannot determine the composition time of each song, so it is based on the release time. Let’s take it as quantum mechanics. .
