Chapter 323 Master and Disciple
In Shinagawa District, inside an old house.

"Speaking of which, Ah Che's insistence on not showing his face seems to be the right thing to do."

Sitting at the dining table, Kawai Shogo, wearing a wool vest, poured himself a glass of wine, then raised his eyebrows and looked thoughtfully at Nobuhiko Okayama, who was sitting opposite him.

From the moment this kid introduced Kitagawa Che to him, the existing rift between the two of them gradually began to be repaired.

Until now, the two of them have returned to what they were like before, although not the same as before.

Nobuhiko Okayama finally no longer objected to talking to him about music matters, let alone avoided him deliberately.

"Teacher, can you tell me in detail what 'persisting in what is right' means?"

Okayama Nobuhiko looked at his teacher with some confusion and started talking.

Today, the wife is not at home, so naturally they can have some drinks.

But, in terms of drinking ability, after all these years, he is still no match for Kawai Shogo.

In order to avoid being pushed to the table by his teacher, he declined the other party's invitation to have a drink on the pretext that he would have to drive home later.

"That's the literal meaning." Kawai Shogo put down the wine bottle and raised his eyebrows at Okayama Nobuhiko, "You really don't want to drink?"

"I really don't want to drink." Nobuhiko Okayama waved his hand, "I have to drive home later."

He's not stupid, and it's not like he doesn't know Kawai Shogo's temperament.

This old man always talks about having a small drink, but once he starts drinking, especially when drinking at home, he just has to get up and drink, and he can't find the north.

Usually when he can have a drink, it's during holidays, so he can feel free to do it again.

It's not like he is short-sighted when competing with this kind of wine hero.

"……Fine."

Kawai Shogo was silent for a while, shook his head with some pity, and his eyes unconsciously fell on the large table of steaming dishes in front of him.

Knowing that Nobuhiko Okayama was coming over today, he went out to buy a lot of vegetables and made such a big table, thinking that master and apprentice would have a drink again, but this brat didn't actually drink.

However, it is also good not to drink alcohol.

After shaking his head and comforting himself in his heart, Kawai Shogo continued what he had just said, "Because 'Jay' only has so much information left on the singer's page, so his songs become more popular, and everyone is more curious about him. It's also deeper.

“After all, there is only so much information that can be seen.

"Jay, male, musician, young man, and then he disappeared.

“I have been in the industry for so many years, and I have never seen any singer’s self-introduction page be so clean.

"To put it bluntly, if it wasn't a requirement of the website, given Ache's temperament, he would probably only leave his ID and gender, and not even mention things like age."

Having said this, Kawai Changgo couldn't help but shrugged.

He never thought that a faceless singer could actually stir up discussion.

Now, in the comprehensive discussion area of ​​​​Music Network APP, the discussion about 'Jay' is still heating up, and the discussion heat of several topics has been squeezed into the front of the comprehensive discussion area.

After considering his words, Kawai Shogo continued, "Nobuhiko, if you open the comprehensive discussion area of ​​the music APP now, you can clearly see that fans are quite interested in 'Jay's' appearance, age and relationship status.

"Male fans think 'Jay' must be a young man with a lot of stories and deep eyes, probably in his early twenties.

"Female fans think 'Jay' is a talented young man who has just turned 20 with good looks and generous conversation."

Hearing this, Nobuhiko Okayama's mouth twitched. He really never thought that those people could discuss this.

Shaking his head, he asked, "Isn't anyone discussing A Che's new song "Lemon"?"

"Yes, when fans are debating, they will use clues in the songs to support it, and the one that is mentioned the most is not "Loser", but the recent song "Lemon."" Kawai Shogo took a chopstick to himself Cooking barbecue, there was a little helplessness on his face, "I have never seen such fans, let alone such a singer."

"I think it's quite normal."

Okayama Nobuhiko also picked up the chopsticks, took a piece of roast beef and put it into his bowl. He recognized his teacher's cooking skills. Back then, the teacher relied on his good cooking skills to become popular among the suitors. Later, I married my master's wife.

"Is this normal?" Kawai Shogo put down his chopsticks, picked up his wine glass and took a sip, "To be more precise, what surprises me is not the enthusiasm of the fans. After all, each singer has more or less such fans. There will be a little bit.

"It's because Ah Che has never interacted with these fans at all, and he has never used a mature business model to cultivate fan loyalty. The result is such a surprising result.

“The cohesion that comes out of such mundane sentences is no joke.

“You only have to look at what they discussed to understand what I’m saying now.

“And this is without any external interference.

"Under such a premise, they can all look forward to and worship A Che like that.

"Isn't this outrageous enough?"

After saying that, Kawai Shogo put down his wine glass and quietly pushed the wine bottle in front of Okayama Nobuhiko.He has always been good at tricking this kid into having a drink.

"Can't it be Che's personal charm?"

Nobuhiko Okayama shook his head and pushed the wine bottle back.

After dealing with his teacher for so long, he knew very well that if he relaxed here, he would not be able to control how much he drank after he started to 'have a drink'.

As expected, when he opened his eyes again, it would be late at night or tomorrow morning.

"...If you want to explain it this way, it's not impossible."

Kawai Shogo sighed and shook his head.

I'm afraid, he has to take back what he just said in his heart.

This kid really doesn't seem to be planning to drink today.

"However, from my personal point of view, even if these fans know something about A Che and the mystery is partially lifted, they will still have a strong interest and admiration for him."

Nobuhiko Okayama paused, then said the second half of the sentence in a somewhat complicated tone, "After all, I have never seen a singer with such an outstanding voice who is also so handsome."

Although he hates to admit it, Kitagawa Cheru's appearance is much better than when he was young.

"Then do you think A Che will use... commercial methods to interact with fans after showing his face?"

Kawai Shogo hesitated for a moment, but after all, he didn't say anything too explicit.

"Him?" Nobuhiko Okayama was stunned for half a second, and then shook his head very confidently, "You think too much."

With Kitagawa Che's temperament, if he interacts with fans with a purpose, he will probably get bored.

In fact, in his mind, instead of wasting time on commercial or non-commercial things, it would be better to write and sing more songs.

"So confident?"

Kawai Shogo raised his eyebrows and his eyes fell on his student's face.

"Yes."

Okayama Nobuhiko nodded and gave an affirmative answer without hesitation.

This kind of thinking model will most likely not work for other singers, but for Kitagawa Che, he can only say that he has a lot to do.

After all, this kid's talent is so exaggerated that he can ignore all these twists and turns.

"Then let's make a bet?"

Kawai Changgo showed a smile and said calmly and coaxingly.

"sure."

Nobuhiko Okayama nodded slightly. In this bet, he never thought of the possibility of losing.

"Then, if you win the bet, I'll treat you to a drink. If you lose the bet, how about you treat me to a drink?"

Kawai Shogo played a little word game.

"Isn't this the same thing?"

Nobuhiko Okayama shook his head helplessly.

"Not bad." Kawai Shogo smiled and shrugged, then pushed the wine bottle in front of his student again, "Small drink, small cup, five cups."

He is not a person who likes to give up easily.

"..."

The teacher and student stared at each other like this for a full six seconds. In the end, Nobuhiko Okayama's helpless smile was the answer and end to the stare.

"alright."

The teacher has already mentioned this, but as a student, what can I say?

"That's right."

Kawai Changgo smiled cheerfully, stood up on his own initiative, picked up the wine bottle, and poured a glass for his student.

Today, he will keep his promise.

Because, in the evening, he also had things to deal with, and he was bound to not be able to drink according to his temper during the noon period.

What's more, his body is no longer as strong as it once was.
