Chapter 412 Another Year

Early the next morning, Koizumi Tokoko and Fujii Yuya took the earliest flight to leave Otaru. When they returned, Koizumi Tokoko's mood was obviously much lower. Although they had fun yesterday, the two did not sleep together at night.

This also indicates that there is no possibility of saving the relationship between the two. Before leaving, Akina Nakamori hugged Kyoko Koizumi, but she didn't have much time to comfort her, because the weather forecast was very accurate, it snowed today, Zhongxue , the wind is not very strong, just suitable for the weather to watch the snow, that is to say, you can't be late for the filming.

Naturally, Hiro Kimura also wanted to follow him. He also took Miyazawa Rie and Sato Kayo along the way. I heard that the place chosen by Shunji Iwai had a very good snow scene. Akina Nakamori used to film, and they went to watch the snow scene. Of course, the supervisor was also indispensable. of.

Because of the unsuitable weather, the crew stopped filming for several days, and the staff and actors were all suffocated. Now the filming is finally going to start. Everyone is very excited, especially when they arrive at the scheduled studio, they are even more excited because There is a vast expanse of white, and the snow scene is really beautiful.

"It's so beautiful, it's all pure white snow, and Hongjun should be buried in the mountains over there." Arriving on the set, Akina Nakamori pointed to the white snow-capped mountains in the distance and joked.

"Hey, what do you mean I'm buried there, it's Fujii tree buried there, Akina, you have to be clear, I can't climb a mountain in such a heavy snow, I still want to save my life to spend the rest of my life with you Akina." Retort , along with the sweet love words.

Such sweet love words made Akina Nakamori smile and couldn't help but say, "It's really annoying!"

Rie Miyazawa and Kayo Sato, who were standing next to them, watched the two flirting with each other, and they couldn't stand it anymore. The two of them said in unison, "Hey, I really can't stand the two of you."

"Hey, what do you mean by being unbearable, we are in love, okay? Let's see if I don't teach you a lesson." He grabbed a handful of snow from the ground and smashed it at Miyazawa Rie.

Suddenly attacked by Kimura Hiro, the snowball hit her head directly, and then the snow slag exploded, leaving her upper body covered in snow, Miyazawa Rie couldn't stand it, and shouted, "Kayo-chan, hit him with me, this bad guy. "

As a result, the scene soon turned into a big snowball fight between Kimura Hiro and two little girls. As for Nakamori Akina, she stood there watching them fight. She also loudly encouraged which side was at a disadvantage, typical of watching the fun. Not too big of a deal.

It's just that the snowball fight didn't last long, and there was a rebuke from Iwai Shunji "Hey, Kimura-san, what are you doing, don't mess up the snow scene, or you won't have that kind of beauty when you shoot for a while, hurry up and give it to me. I stop."

Although Kimura Hiro is Iwai Junji's immediate boss, but on the set, Iwai Junji's power is the greatest, because he is the supervisor, Kimura Hiro hurriedly stopped, and he was immediately hit in the face by two snow balls. Akina Nakamori laughed.

"Akina-san, what are you still laughing at, hurry up and prepare, you must be depressed, do you understand the grief, quickly adjust your emotions and stop laughing." Iwai Shunji, who was angry in his heart, began to scold Akina Nakamori again.

Akina Nakamori, who was still laughing at the beginning, could only hold back her smile and her face turned red. Now it was Kimura Hiro's turn to laugh at her.

Because I didn't know when the snow would stop, the shooting started soon, and Kimura Hiroshi didn't continue to make trouble. He took Miyazawa Rie and Sato Kayo to start the oversight mode, mainly to take a fancy to Mori Akina's shooting.

Nakamori Akina, who is dressed in black, stands out in the white world of ice and snow, and these snow scenes are almost all her one-man shows, which are important moments for her acting skills.

And Shunji Iwai's requirements are also very strict. If he feels that his emotions are not in place, he will ask for a reshoot. Obviously, he has very high requirements for the first work he shot.

Similarly, Nakamori Akina also attached great importance to this gift from Kimura Hiroshi. If the main actor and the supervisor are very attached, the filming will proceed relatively smoothly, especially Nakamori Akina's emotions. She has a lot of herself for sadness. view, so it is much easier to express.

Snowflakes were falling, and in the snow, Akina Nakamori cooperated with Shunji Iwai to show their understanding of "Love Letter", while the original author of the novel, Hiroshi Kimura, was sitting behind the camera, watching all this, he couldn't help but I don't admit it, but the 21-year-old Nakamori Akina is indeed shockingly beautiful, especially in this sad and pure white world.

"As expected of the queen of atmosphere, it seems that, in addition to beauty, the feeling of loneliness and sorrow in the snow is really great." Kimura Hiro couldn't help but praised in a low voice, he couldn't help but think of it. In the original world line, Akina Nakamori's classic single "Break the Ship", the current situation is really similar to the stage performance of "Break the Ship", but now, Akina Nakamori may not sing that sad song again. Well, if you want to sing, it is estimated that he needs to push it.

And Shunji Iwai also seemed to agree with Kimura Hiroshi's praise. After several consecutive shots, he couldn't help but clapped his palms and said, "Very good, Akina-san, that's it, that's it, continue like this, three days. It can be done in no time.”

Things were as expected by Iwai Shunji. Because of Akina Nakamori's excellent performance, the shooting of the snow scene took only three days and one morning to complete the shooting, followed by the shooting of other scenes, which took a total of four days. It was officially finished, and all the shots were shot.

"It's great, the filming is finally completed. Then I will invite the guests to dinner. In addition, I worked hard to film in the snow, and the bonuses are indispensable." Speaker.

Hearing that there will be a bonus, both the staff and the actors are very happy, but they know that Kimura Hiro is quite generous, and the bonus should not be small.

After the celebration banquet that night, Kimura Hiroshi didn't even stay in Otaru for one more night. He accompanied Nakamori Akina back to Tokyo that night, and Miyazawa Rie and Sato Kayo also came back together. There was really no way out. Things, the end of the year, Nakamori Akina is too busy, but can't afford to delay any time.

As for Kimura Hiro himself, busyness is naturally indispensable. This year's Red and White Song Festival, as well as the record awards and the year-end programs of the best ten and the top ten chart programs are all indispensable.

No way, who made him and Nakamori Akina once again complete the record chart dominance this year? Now in various media reports, he Kimura Hiro and Nakamori Akina are called "men and women who dominate the music world", or "" Singer Double King".

This year's Akina Nakamori released three singles, and Hiro Kimura released four singles, in addition to "Riding the Summer Breeze" as a single, "Romantic Flight" as a commercial song, and as a movie theme song "Previous Past Life", and the TV single "Definitely Can Fly in the Sky".

Two people, seven singles, except for "fin" released by Akina Nakamori at the end of September, the two of them successfully occupied six of the top ten sales charts, and today's single sales list is the annual champion, without a doubt , which belongs to "DESIRE" released by Akina Nakamori at the beginning of the year, sold more than 78 copies, and is the single closest to 80 sales this year.

Hiroshi Kimura's best-selling single is currently the commercial single "Romantic Flight" produced for JAL. As a commercial song, it appears in TV commercials from time to time, and also appears in airports and even on planes. Its promotion is particularly long, which also contributed to its sales period, with sales exceeding 76 copies, ranking second in the annual sales list.

This year, Kimura Hiroshi did not continue to occupy the top position in the annual sales list, but many media carnival, vented fiercely, and felt that Kimura Hiroshi was declining and had been surpassed by Nakamori Akina. It is estimated that his popularity will plummet soon.

But in fact, Kimura Hiroshi did not get the top position in the sales chart, and his four singles all entered the top ten of the sales chart, which shows his popularity. This is the third consecutive year he has achieved this achievement since 84. It can be seen that his popularity has lasted for a long time.

Except for those media that have a bad relationship with Hiroshi Kimura, other media have already put titles such as "The King of Male Idols" and "The Ruler of the Music World" on his head. If Hiroshi Kimura's popularity continues In two years, it is estimated that the title of "King of the 80s Music World" is indispensable.

It's just that at the year-end summary meeting of Yanyin, Kimura Hiro saw that the media had assigned him some of the titles of middle school. number?"

"Hey, Kimura-san is not satisfied with these titles, I think it's very good, I think the king of male idols is very good, Kimura-san is definitely worthy of this title, haha." Kimura Hiro, who was facing Hanamihe, couldn't help but said with a smile.

At the end of this year, Hua Jianhe's mood is quite good, much better than last year, the reason is, of course, because Yanyin's performance this year is quite good.

Although the record market continues to shrink this year, Akina Nakamori has released three singles and four albums this year. Although the sales of singles are much lower than last year, the sales of albums can still remain stable, with sales ranging from 50 to 70 Zhang Jian, relying on quantity abruptly, Nakamori Akina's sales this year are not worse than last year, and even slightly improved.

As for Hiro Kimura, who was a bit sloppy last year, this year, relying on TV dramas and movies, he has also released four singles and one album. Compared with last year, the sales are not much worse than last year. As a result, this year's research performance is better than last year's. It's not bad, but a small improvement.

When other firms were declining, Yanyin rose against the trend, and actually completed the performance improvement this year, which is enough to prove Hanamihiro's work ability. Sasakawa, who is behind him, will definitely praise him more. It is also indispensable, so it is inevitable for Hua Jianhe to be happy.

But Kimura Hiroshi felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the happy appearance of Hana Jianhe, put down the entertainment newspaper in his hand, cleared his throat and said, "President, it's too early to be happy, I estimate that the record market will continue next year. Recession, and it's the worst of the year, you have to be prepared, sales are estimated to be down [-] to [-] percent, so I'm going to release fewer singles next year."

This is not an alarmist talk by Hiroshi Kimura. Next year's record market will indeed be the worst year in the 80s. If the sales of a single record exceeds 40, it will be considered a big hit. This is the consensus of all firms and record production companies. Under such circumstances , Hiroshi Kimura feels that the estimated sales of his singles are only about [-] copies. This sales volume is difficult for Hiroshi Kimura to accept, so he must reduce the number of songs he releases.

Hana Jianhe, who was originally happy because of the good performance this year, did not expect Kimura Hiro to suddenly come to such a speech. Although he knew that Kimura Hiro should be reminding him, he always felt something was wrong. Saying these things when others are happy makes people unable to resist. Is it really okay to be worried?
Hana Jianhe didn't speak, but after listening to the others, they couldn't help but worry. Yukio Tomioka couldn't help but ask, "Kimura-san, will the record market really shrink like this next year?"

Nodding his head, Kimura Hiroshi said, "Well, Mr. Tomioka, according to my observation, the sales of the albums released at the end of this year are much lower than those at the beginning of the year, such as Ming Cai's "fin", the quality is obviously the same as the previous single "" "Gypsy Queen" is not bad, and her popularity is not a problem, but the sales volume is tens of thousands less, and it does not enter the top ten annual sales list, so I think the situation will be worse next year."

It is reasonable and well-founded. Everyone knows that this may be true. At this time, Hua Jianhe was a little panicked. This year, he finally completed the growth, and he will fall back next year. Who can stand it? He couldn't help wrinkling. He frowned and asked, "Is there no way to save it, such as releasing more songs or albums?"

Shaking his head, Kimura Hiroshi said, "Useless president, now the economy is so good, everyone has invested money, the desire to buy records is not high, and record companies are reluctant to improve technology, now is the era of CDs, and they are still producing Who wants to buy so many vinyl records, thinking about releasing more singles, it is better to focus on CDs and tapes next year, Mr. Tomioka, you can feedback this suggestion to Warner.”

Nowadays, the market is not good, and people's desire to buy is low. Another reason is that record companies are still producing a large number of vinyl records, but now that CD records are mature, people are more willing to buy CDs than heavy vinyl. Or tape, who wants to buy vinyl, which further reduces people's desire to buy.

Therefore, Kimura Hiro suggested to focus on CDs and tapes. The market is not good next year, so it is possible to seize the opportunity. Because in 88, the sales of CDs were so low that the record companies finally couldn’t stand it and started the innovation of record production. Attention began to turn to CDs and tapes, and the record market finally began to come back to life. Of course, there were also reasons why people were willing to buy records after two consecutive years of crazy investment and obtained good returns.

"Okay, I will immediately report Kimura-san's suggestion to Warner." Yukio Tomioka paid special attention to Kimura-san's suggestion, because Kimura-san can always grasp the key points of the market and create extraordinary results, so He must pay attention to help the company take the lead in advance and also gain benefits.
