225. The Game of Two Factions

In the end, Shinichi Iwahashi still bought a tie from Watanabe Manyumi.

When the gift was given, Watanabe Manyumi said to him: "As for how to choose a return gift, I didn't teach you so much before, just practice it." ”

Iwahashi Shinichi smiled when he heard this, "What is this?After-school homework assigned by Watanabe-sensei after teaching?"

Watanabe's laughter grows on this "Watanabe-sensei", "Then, please come on, Shin Yi-kun." ”

But no matter what, I still thank him for his thoughtfulness in my heart. And in the matter of thinking about men, she seems to understand what it is like to be a woman.

......

Accepting the tie, Shinichi Iwahashi accompanied her for a while, and before she knew it, she was killing time until three o'clock. The two of them rested for a while, and then prepared to go.

Shinichi Iwahashi, who went to Morijin's house, was very familiar, but in the end, it was he who commanded, parked the car in the nearby guest parking lot, and the two walked to Mori's house.

Mori Masako just started to show her nostalgia, wearing a loose knitted sweater on her body, and she couldn't see anything if she didn't look closely. The most unstable period of early pregnancy had passed, but she still looked haggard.

When a husband hosts a party, the wife has to take on the responsibility of hospitality. Mori Masako and Iwahashi Shinichi Watanabe Manyumi both met and gave gifts, Mori Masako opened it and looked at it, and thanked him sincerely: "The two of you are really thoughtful. ”

Mori Shinichi was at ease, chatting with a few guests who had already arrived first, Shinichi Iwahashi and Watanabe Manyumi passed, he was personable, and greeted, "Miss Wanyumi, Iwahashi-kun, the two have arrived." ”

"Greetings, Mori-san. "After all, it's a former job," Shinichi Iwahashi greeted politely.

Sen Jin smiled and said, "Iwahashi-kun, it's been a lot of action lately." ”

After the greetings, Mori introduced the two of them to the people who had already arrived, including lyricist Miyuki Ishimamoto, producer Yukio Ohashi, and actress and former Candies member Ran Ito.

When Candies disbanded, Ito Ran claimed that she wanted to experience the life of ordinary people, but after the disbandment, she slapped her face in the second and immediately made a comeback as an actress, and she also fell in love with a super fan of her idol era, actor Yutaka Mizutani.

Mori Shinichi and Ito Ran are both from the art training school to which Watanabe Productions belongs, so they have some personal relationships.

After saying hello, Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe sat down.

Before, the four of them were chatting about the record awards, and after they were polite to each other, lyricist Miyuki Ishimoto continued what he had just said, "This year, on the singing side, it is worth looking forward to Goki, and he himself is also very energetic." ”

"The last time Gogi-kun won a big prize was the year before last, and at that time, it was Mr. Ishimoto who wrote the lyrics. ”

In front of the creators behind the scenes, Mori Jinichi is very modest, which is a manifestation of the ecology of the arts.

However, this year, Genesys has let out the wind and seems to want Matchy to win a big prize. Producer Yukio Ohashi talked about it.

Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe both heard this for the first time, and they both found it incredible. It's incredible because......

Watanabe Manyumi opened his mouth and asked, "With Kondo-san's current sales, will it work to win a big prize?"

To say that Kondo Masahiko, whose popularity and sales in the past few years were really good, is the top male idol launched by Genesys. But his peak has long passed, and his momentum has been falling all the way to stop, not to mention this year, it can be seen with his eyes that his momentum of falling all the way can't be stopped.

"Matchy's best-selling one this year doesn't even have 200,000. ”

This single is called "Fool" (stupid person), and it has been sold since January 1, 1987, and under the pretense of selling for a whole year, all kinds of means have been exhausted, and as a result, it was sold at the end of the year, and barely sold 180,000 copies.

Even if it is now the era of shrinking record market, 180,000 singles will not be ranked at all.

And the most important award of the record awards, one of the evaluation criteria is "highly supported by the public", the public's support is most truly reflected in the sales, if 180,000 copies win the award, I am afraid that anyone will think that they are messing around.

"If Kondo really won the big prize, the big prize would become a joke. ”

"That being said, Janis is quite enthusiastic about it, and it is said that he is actively moving around with the Grand Award Association. ”

"Do you want to go through the back door?" said Yukio Ohashi with a sneering expression.

are all classified in the scope of their own people, and the only Ito Lan is still a former idol, and everyone is very explicit.

Including Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe, everyone can see that Kondo Masahiko only has two ways to go to his hometown, and he can't get a big award this year, so don't think about it again in this life.

All of you are seniors, and Shin Iwahashi listens with one ear pricked up, but the more he listens, the more he feels that something is wrong, and when these bigwigs in the singing industry talk about it, they seem to have completely forgotten another thing.

Whether it's Hiroshi Gogi or Mahiko Kondo, isn't the person who is really closest to the big prize Akina Nakamori?

After the release of "Hard to Break the Boat", both sales and word-of-mouth are impeccable, especially for the public, when listening to the song, it is inevitable to combine Nakamori Akina's own experience, think of reality, and be convinced by her wholehearted performance.

Song sales, the popularity of the singer himself, the topicality, including the stage performance designed by Akina Nakamori, is simply a hexagonal warrior, and for the outside public, I am afraid that it is more practical to see the unprecedented record award triple.

However, these singing masters who are here now seem to have neither Akina Nakamori nor her achievements this year, and regard Mahiko Kondo, who is standing behind Janiss, as their biggest opponent, but completely ignore Akina Nakamori.

"What does Iwahashi-kun think?" Mori Shinichi asked, noticing that he hadn't spoken.

was named, Iwahashi thought about it, and still opened his mouth to bring up the matter, "In terms of results alone, I'm afraid the possibility of the Akina Sauna Award can't be ignored." ”

He spoke in a subtle way, using the word "possibility".

Unexpectedly, hearing him say this, several singing bigwigs laughed. It's not that he doesn't smile with kindness, but when he looks at him, he has an attitude like a child who is unscrupulous.

Mori Shinichi taught him earnestly, "Ming Cai is very good, but three consecutive championships still won't work." ”

This tone seems to have been determined that Akina Nakamori will not win a big prize.

Miyu Ishimoto said a little more, "Hosokawa-kun's two consecutive awards are still vivid, but I didn't expect that Ming Cai-chan also won two times in a row in the turn of the year." ”

This is a subtle statement, but it is also clear.

Iwahashi Shinichi listened obediently and realized that this big prize was actually a game between the singers and the pop school.
