100. He's going to make trouble
Regarding the meaning of Sekimura's words, Watanabe Manyumi did not express his position at the time. Even now, when she called Shinichi Iwahashi over and mentioned it to him, she didn't make a decision in her heart.
From the perspective of the firm's decision-makers, Sekimura's suggestion was naturally rational.
In the current situation, the band that unites Shinichi Iwahashi and Miwa Yoshida seems to have become a constraint on their success......
Watanabe Manyumi has never met Miwa Yoshida and doesn't know her talent, but I believe that Sekimura's vision will not easily give people such a high evaluation.
And Iwahashi Shin'ichi, with his talent, has a limitless future as an agent. She also felt that the firm should keep this person.
The experienced Guan Cun has his unique vision for things. However, based on Watanabe's observation and understanding of Shinichi Iwahashi, I feel that the reason why Shinichi Iwahashi is so persistent must have his reasons.
Compared with whether Sekimura's vision is as good as ever, or whether Miwa Yoshida's talent is so strong that it is surprising, Watanabe Manyumi is more concerned about the reason for Iwahashi Shinichi's persistence.
Is the band really a constraint for these two people?
Because of this question, she wanted to see Shinichi Iwahashi.
Shinichi Iwahashi admired the band with female protagonists, believing that there was a lot to be done, and Watanabe Manyumi thought it made sense, so he strongly supported the festival, and everything was interlinked.
So, instead of guessing and then asserting directly, she wanted to hear Iwahashi Shinichi's thoughts directly.
If it weren't for this unrelated event, she probably wouldn't have looked for Shinichi Iwahashi. But it was a coincidence, and in the end, I discussed the music festival with him.
Plans can't keep up with the changes.
"It's true that I'm both the manager of the band, the captain of the band and the keyboardist. Shin'ichi Iwahashi admits, "However, as you can see, the band is in a hiatus. ”
Watanabe Manyumi smiled, "Wearing many hats, is he a so-called 'soul person'?"
"That's not it. Shinichi Iwahashi explained, "The real soul is the lead singer of the band, our Yoshida-san. ”
"Oh?"
"The first time I heard our Yoshida-san sing, I made up my mind that I wanted her singing to be heard by everyone. Becoming an agent and forming a band, everything comes from her singing. Now, as the captain and agent, as well as another teammate, we are also thinking about how to convey what she wants to convey in the song. ”
"Another teammate?"
"Yes. The lead singer and bassist, plus me, the keyboardist, are such a composition. Iwahashi said.
"It's a pretty fresh composition. Watanabe was a little interested, "I really want to see your performance." And Iwahashi-san, I want to see you playing the keyboard. ”
"If you want to see it, I have a tape of the band in my hand. Or, when you have the opportunity to get together later, invite you to visit the club. ...... However, the heroic posture is forgotten. ”
Watanabe Manyumi smiled lightly, "How can you be humble so early." ”...... His expression was a little more serious, "However, the videotape is exempt, don't you think about performing at the festival this time?"
However, Iwahashi Shinichi did not agree, but first pointed out the inappropriateness.
"FIRST OF ALL, IT'S A MATTER OF STYLE, THE STYLE OF THE BAND IS NOT SO ROCKY. "Shin'ichi Iwahashi looks like he's going to list them all.
"Is it still one, two, three?" said Watanabe Manyumi with a straight smile.
Shinichi Iwahashi denied it, "Three don't, two do." The captain of my band is the executive committee member of this festival, so it is better not to go on stage in order to avoid suspicion. ”
"That's wrong, there's a saying that 'the virtuous don't avoid relatives', isn't it?"
"Yes. Iwahashi Shinichi laughed at this.
"As for the style, as a band that can produce independently, it's always okay to make a rock tune, right?"
"Of course, no problem. "Big Brother Nakamura's arranging level is professional, and as for Miwa Yoshida, her style is as varied as Sakura.
"So, it's okay. Just take your teammates on stage and put on a show. Watanabe Manyumi encouraged him, "When the time comes, I will also go down to the stage to watch your performance and confirm it with my own eyes." ”
"Confirmed?" Iwahashi Shinichi thought to himself.
"Confirmed. Watanabe Manyumi repeated. What I didn't say in my heart was to confirm the composition of the band, whether the members were irreplaceable, and whether the meaning of his existence as a keyboardist was beyond the meaning of his role as an agent.
To see is to believe.
Those things that she didn't say, Iwahashi Shinichi understood in his heart, and knew in his heart that the performance of the music festival was an interview for the band by Manyumi Watanabe.
He nodded and agreed, "I'll gather my teammates." ”
The tuning fork resonated, and the two people's thoughts were connected again.
There are huge opportunities in this festival. There is how to carry forward women's rock, how to bring fire to the rabbit country across the sea, and the huge market that has not yet been cultivated in the rabbit country.
Compared to these huge opportunities, the band got a small opportunity. But this small opportunity is the band's most reliable and closest chance to success to date.
Miwa-chan, chance to be spicy!
...... Shinichi Iwahashi thought so in his heart, and said so to her on the phone later.
Hearing this,
The next morning, when Shinichi Iwahashi arrived at the office, he immediately felt an unusual atmosphere. At the regular meeting, at the beginning, Otsu Shusaku announced to the group that Junmi Matsuzaki had withdrawn from the festival.
“...... That's it. ”
When the people in the group heard the news, their expressions were not good. Atsumi Matsuzaki withdrew, making the already untopical music festival even worse.
Otsu Shusaku called half-cheeringly: "Everyone, since the fact has happened, it is useless to sigh. Let's ask you to brainstorm a way to open up the current situation. ”
The members of the group talked about seniority, and raised their hands one after another to speak, Otsu Shusaku listened to them one by one, and finally set his eyes on Iwahashi Shinichi, the youngest and least senior in the group.
"Iwahashi-kun, do you have any good ideas?" Otsu Shusaku was looking forward to what he had to say.
Shinichi Iwahashi stood up and took the opportunity to state the proposal he had mentioned to Watanabe yesterday — of course, skipping the later version of the outlook for the rabbit country entertainment market.
"Expanding into an international music festival?"
There was a lot of discussion among the team members, and there was a buzz in the conference room.
There are all kinds of moths emerging in the existing scale, and this guy is proposing to expand the scale?
What is he going to do? He's going to do something.
