My love life with the Yuanzu singer

By the time the live broadcast of the Night HIT program ended, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. The female guests had to remove their make-up and change their clothes, but Hiroshi Kimura didn't need it. dinner.

After choosing a high-end restaurant, Hiroshi Kimura had a good meal with Akina Nakamori and two of their managers and assistants, and it was right for everyone to make up for it together.

Seeing that Akina Nakamori seemed to be getting thinner and thinner, Hiroshi Kimura communicated with Yoshizawa Akiyuki to ask the firm not to add too much work to Akina Nakamori this year, so that she could have time to adjust her body and mind and take a good rest. That's the most important thing, and everything else is external to him.

It's just that even if you say that, you need to wait for a while to take a good rest, because the recent work is arranged, and you can't shirk without reason, and if you don't do the arranged things, Akina Nakamori will not agree. Let's finish all the work that has been arranged first.

In order to have time to rest with Akina Nakamori in the future, Hiroshi Kimura naturally couldn’t be lazy during this time, and started to work harder, thinking about finishing some things in his hand as soon as possible, such as the recording of new singles and MVs, and Post-production on John Wick, and two singles he's ready to sell.

"Mr. Tomioka, help me contact Miss Priscilla Chan's company in Xiangjiang, and Ms. Misora ​​Hibari's company. I have some singles in my hand and I want to cooperate with them." Contacting other companies for cooperation is naturally unnecessary. Kimura Hiroshi can do it, just leave it to his agent.

"Okay, I'll do it right away." Yukio Tomioka naturally wanted to do his best to finish the task assigned by Hiroshi Kimura, and he started the job quite quickly. He first contacted the two ladies by phone that afternoon. company.

Because they have cooperated with Miss Priscilla Chan of Xiangjiang before, they bought the cover rights of several singles from Hiroshi Kimura, so they have a direct contact method, so the connection is more convenient.

Over there, I heard that Hiroshi Kimura recently created a single, and thought it was very suitable for Ms. Priscilla Chan to sing, so she immediately expressed her willingness to cooperate, and they would send someone over to discuss it the next day, and the speed was very fast.

The reason for such an attitude is that Hiroshi Kimura is so popular in East Asia. Whether it is his movies or singles, they are very popular. The title of girl killer is well-deserved, and Priscilla Chan covered it before The few singles by Hiroshi Kimura are very popular. Now that Hiroshi Kimura specially wrote a song for her, I am naturally very anxious, afraid of missing it.

It was very quick to contact Xiangjiang, but it was not so convenient to contact Misora ​​Hibari in the Neon country. Although I also knew Hiroshi Kimura there, I felt that as a pop singer, Hiroshi Kimura actually wanted to write some kind of enka. Doubts, they don't know exactly what Hiroshi Kimura is up to.

Faced with this situation, Yukio Tomioka naturally informed Hiroshi Kimura of the situation, and Hiroshi Kimura responded quite simply, saying, "Then record the single as a demo, and Mr. Tomioka will bring it over to discuss with them. After listening to the single demo, I think they know what the encore single I wrote is like."

The next day, people from Xiangjiang came, and Kimura Hiroshi met and talked with them in person, and then took out the single score of the Chinese translation of "Song of Thousand Thousands" written by himself. The name of the single is "Song of the Sunset", which means "Song of the Sunset".

This song was originally supposed to be sung by the guy who was sent to make a small movie by him, but now he has no chance, and he doesn't know if the author of this song will create this song, Kimura Hong didn't want such a classic piece to be disrupted by him, a spoiler, and disappear into the world, so he took out the score.

It’s just that this song has no market in today’s neon market, because it is too low-key, and Hiroshi Kimura thinks that even if he sings it himself, the sales will not be much better. Accept its words in the music world, and make Priscilla Chan the original singer.

However, what he provided was only the score of the single, and the lyrics still needed to be filled in by Xiangjiang's lyricist, but Hiroshi Kimura would not miss the share that should belong to him. He didn't ask for a sum of money to buy it out directly as in the past. He asked for a share, but he didn't ask too much, that is, a [-]% share, which is the share that senior neon composers usually get.

"I believe that Miss Priscilla Chan can make this song a big hit in the Chinese music scene, so I need royalties. If I buy it out, then I will be really at a loss." Kimura Hiroshi also directly stated the reason why he wanted royalties on the spot.

All the people present at Xiangjiang who came to discuss this song couldn't help laughing, but they were all kind smiles. From Hiroshi Kimura's words, they could hear Hiroshi Kimura's confidence in his song, and at the same time, his recognition of Priscilla Chan. It also made them very happy, so there was not much hesitation. After the professional musicians brought in confirmed that the quality of the music was excellent, they quickly agreed to Hiroshi Kimura's request.

Hiroshi Kimura was very happy that this matter was settled. He knew the status of "Thousand Thousand Que Songs" in the Chinese music scene, and it would not be too much to say that it was a classic of the era. Pen income, and will continue to have it in the future, just relying on this song alone, his life will not be too bad in the future.

After the matter was settled, Hiroshi Kimura invited the people who came to the discussion to have a meal together, and drank a few more glasses, but the communication was not smooth, mainly because Hiroshi Kimura only knew a little about Cantonese, and many of them didn't understand much. .

The single song for Xiangjiang was settled, and Misora ​​Hibari also responded quickly. Misora ​​Hibari heard that Kimura Hiroshi, who has recently stirred up troubles in the neon entertainment circle, was willing to cooperate with him, and was immediately curious. When I didn't receive a single sample, I decided to meet with Kimura Hiroshi to see what kind of song he would come up with.

The two sides quickly agreed to meet at a coffee shop in Roppongi and have a good talk. Misora ​​Hibari will go there in person, and naturally Hiroshi Kimura will also go there.

On the day of the agreed meeting, Kimura Hiroshi was not as casual as usual, but dressed in formal attire, and even arranged his hairstyle specially to make sure there was no faux pas before setting off with Yukio Tomioka and the others.

For Hiroshi Kimura's solemnity, manager Yukio Tomioka was very satisfied, and said, "Ms. Hibari Misora ​​is a super senior. Kimura-san's solemnity is a respect for her, but after meeting, you should also pay attention, and you can't be as usual. Whatever, got it?"

Nodding, Hiroshi Kimura said, "Understood, Mr. Tomioka, don't say that Ms. Misora ​​Hibari is a senior, even if she is an old man who is so much older than me, I will respect her very much, please rest assured All right."

When they came to the coffee shop, there were already staff waiting for them at the door. Seeing them coming, they immediately led them to a box on the second floor of the coffee shop.

When the door of the box was pushed open, Hiroshi Kimura saw Ms. Hibari Misora, who has an irreplaceable position in the history of neon music. She is 51 years old, and her face has many years of traces, and she is seriously ill. , the whole person looks a little old.

But even so, she still dresses herself meticulously, wearing an emerald green long dress, combing her hair in a bun, and wearing light makeup on her face, giving people a feeling that she is still full of energy.

"Ms. Misora, this is Hiroshi Kimura. He is surrounded by his manager Yukio Tomioka and his assistant." The staff around Hibari Misora ​​introduced her.

Hearing the staff's introduction and looking at the young Hiroshi Kimura, Hibari Misora ​​showed a faint smile on his face, and said, "You are really young and handsome, Mr. Kimura, no wonder so many young girls like you, If I was young, I'm afraid I would be fooled by your appearance."

Uh, Hiroshi Kimura was a little confused at this time, he didn't expect that when he saw Hibari Misora, the other party not only didn't look very serious, but joked with him instead.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Ms. Misora. My parents gave me my looks. I'm just lucky." Hiroshi Kimura said very modestly.

Misora ​​Hibari nodded appreciatively for Hiroshi Kimura's statement, and said, "Yes, my appearance is given by my parents, just like me, and I am also the lucky person. Okay, sit down, Mr. Kimura , you can’t stand and talk all the time, if you want something to drink, you can order it yourself.”

After saying hello, Hiroshi Kimura naturally sat down, Yukio Tomioka and Ms. Michiko who followed him also sat down, but both of them seemed nervous, Hiroshi Kimura seemed more relaxed, and even called the waiter, ordered a cup of green tea .

"As far as I know, Mr. Kimura has always composed and sang popular songs. Why did he ask me to cooperate? Although enka has been moving closer to popular songs in recent years, there is still a big difference." Seeing Hiroshi Kimura and the others sitting down, Misora ​​Hibari spoke again.

I already knew that the other party would be curious about why he, a pop singer, wanted to write enka, so Hiroshi Kimura prepared his speech in advance, and he pretended to be relatively deep and said, "Enka is a unique music mode of neon, and I also used it when I was young I often listen to it with my father.

Recently, when I went home during the New Year, I saw that my hometown was constantly changing with the passage of time, and my father was also getting old. I wrote a song about time, and I wanted to show it to my dad, so I decided to write it as an enka, and my dad's favorite singer is Ms. Hibari Misora, so I want you to sing it. "

Hearing Hiroshi Kimura's sincere emotion, Hibari Misora ​​seemed to be infected, and responded in agreement, "Yeah, time is like a big river, flowing non-stop, and there is no chance for people to react. Remember me At the age of eight, under the leadership of my mother, I sang in the public hall and bathhouse near my home, and now I am over 50 years old, the time is really fast."

As a master of enka, Misora ​​Hibari was sent to sing by her mother when she was eight years old. There is no way to do this, because Misora ​​Hibari’s family is also very poor. They only run a fish shop. There are many sisters and brothers in the family. They don’t want to find other ways to make money , I'm afraid it will be very difficult for the family.

"I felt this emotion only after a serious illness. I didn't expect you to have such an understanding at a young age. It's really not easy. Maybe this is the difference between young geniuses and others. What about the songs you wrote? Let me see what kind of work you have written." Hibari Misora ​​was obviously very satisfied with Hiroshi Kimura after meeting him, so he wanted to see how the songs he wrote were good. It is estimated that there is no big problem in cooperation.

The music was at Yukio Tomioka's. When he heard that Hibari Misora ​​wanted to read the music, he quickly stood up, took out the sheet music from his bag, handed it to Hibari Misora, and said, "Ms. Misora, please have a look."

When Misora ​​Hibari raised her hand to get the sheet music, Kimura Hiroshi noticed that Misora ​​Hibari's hands seemed to be shaking uncontrollably. Obviously her condition has not been relieved and is still very serious, but she seems to be fine, with a calm face Accepted the tune.

"Let me take a look first, Mr. Kimura, please wait a moment." Said Perfect Sora Hibari began to watch the song seriously, probably because of illness, she read it very slowly, but the more she looked at the expression on her face Even more surprised.

Finally she raised her head to look at Hiroshi Kimura, and said in amazement, "Is this really the song you wrote, Mr. Kimura?"

"Yes, Ms. Misora, this is the song I created. If you are worried, you can go and confirm it." Kimura Hiroshi replied.

Waving her hand, Hibari Misora ​​looked at Hiroshi Kimura more appreciatively. She said, "This song is really special. When I read it, it felt like it was telling my life. It's so touching. I was surprised. It is a narrow and long path with twists and turns. There are no signs on the map. The situation in life is the same. Time is like the water of the big river, flowing endlessly. Your writing is very good, Mr. Kimura, I like it very much This single."

Hearing such an answer, Hiroshi Kimura breathed a sigh of relief. This song, which originally belonged to Hibari Misora, has finally returned to its original owner. This is why many people feel empathy when they hear it.

"Ms. Misora ​​likes it, I am very happy, then I will leave this song to you." Hiroshi Kimura said slightly happily.

"Well, I like it very much. Please rest assured Mr. Kimura. I will sing this song well. It seems to describe my life. I will never let it be buried." Misora ​​Hibari also said very solemnly.
