As far as Iwahashi Shinichi is talking about now, it sounds quite interesting.

Make the formation bigger and create a topic, and once it becomes lively, even the audience who doesn't know much about the band may be interested in the band's concert.

Moving stages and fireworks displays are the selling points of concerts.

Watanabe Manyumi thought for a moment, "Whether it's moving the stage or a fireworks display, these can really bring a lot of buzz. There's a little less, though. ”

Iwahashi Shinichi listened.

Watanabe Manyumi also doesn't sell off-the-stake, "It's the audience's sense of anticipation for the content of the concert." "After relying on the topic to attract the audience to the venue, we also have to meet the audience's expectations for such a special concert.

Since we want to create an ingenious concert stage, we must also meet the audience's rising expectations. If it's just an ordinary singing in the concert venue, the audience will watch it as an ordinary concert.

But once you get a circus-touring formation, the audience has to expect to see something different.

"This one does have to be considered. Iwahashi nodded cautiously.

Since you are going to do an outdoor tour like a circus, not to mention the gorgeous stage, the band itself is very free-spirited, and you can add all kinds of interesting little parts to the performance, write a few new songs that can only be sung and heard at concerts, and even find a backup dance troupe to liven up the atmosphere.

Because it's a band that is not so serious about typhoons on TV, it can be arranged to your heart's content.

In addition, Shinichi Iwahashi told her, "Then there is the choice of songs for the concert, and I want to decide in a different way." ”

"Oh?"

He didn't sell it either, "Let's let the audience vote." Ask the audience to vote, tell us what song they want to hear, decide what song to sing based on the audience's feedback, and decide how to sing the songs. ”

This is to increase the audience's sense of participation, something similar to this, when I was giving advice to Akiko Matsumoto's "We Are Funny Guys".

At that time, Shinichi Iwahashi proposed to bring the audience together to play stalks, give ideas for the plot of the skit, and tear up the idol mask together.

Play the same old trick.

However, as long as it works well, it doesn't hurt to use it a few more times.

Watanabe Manyumi thought about it for a moment, "When I get back to Tokyo, I'll have a meeting with Sony." ”

This is a must-go link, and Iwahashi Shinichi didn't have much to say. However, he still mentioned, "It's best to make a decision as soon as possible, and the venue reservation should be half a year in advance." You also have to customize the stage and find sponsors. ”

Larger concerts have to seek sponsors, and the office alone can't afford it.

"Okay. Watanabe Manyumi agreed, and said of him, "Another idea that makes people feel hard to listen to." ”

Iwahashi smiled Shin, "It should be okay this time?"

Watanabe Manyumi laughed when he called him.

I'll leave the topic at bay for now, and I'll wait until I get back to Tokyo to decide.

There wasn't much time for a lunch break, and before leaving for Kansai TV, the two of them had the right itinerary.

After visiting Igarashi producers, the band asked Akamatsu and the rest of the staff to take them to the LIVEHOUSE for tonight's performance. The official start is 7 p.m. ”

Iwahashi Shinichi said to her, "You can go and see it too, Manyumi-san." ”

"This is natural. ”

Although Watanabe does not have an agency contract with ZARD, she is also the owner of the record company to which the band belongs. She agreed, flipping through the itinerary book in her hand, "However, forget about the rehearsal." After meeting Igarashi producers, I'm going to visit Ishihara-san of the Cosmos Theater Company. ”

"Troupe?" Iwahashi thought for a moment, playing with his meagre knowledge, "I only know about the Takarazuka Troupe and the Shiki Troupe. ”

And the reason why I know about the Takarazuka Theater Troupe is because of a certain writer Yukio Mishima, who has been in love with a Takarazuka star and writes a character in the book from time to time to watch the performance of the Girl Theater Troupe.

Watanabe Manyumi followed his words and made a joke of him, "Amazing." ”

Shinichi Iwahashi made a funny expression of being hit by something.

"However, when I arrived in Kansai, it was a bit of a shame not to go to the performance of the Takarazuka Grand Theater. Although my understanding of the troupe is still stuck in the era of the earth Mao. Once upon a time, I went to see a theater troupe's performance in Tokyo for Daichi-san. Watanabe Manyumi casually mentioned.

Mao Daichi is the former chief male servant of the Takarazuka Moon Group and a big star of the Takarazuka Theater Troupe. The popularity is high, and to put it bluntly, it is called out of the circle. It is so popular that not only fans of the Takarazuka theater troupe, but even the general public knows the name.

Because of her, she also attracted countless girls to enroll in Takarazuka's music school.

For the Takarazuka Theater Company, Mao Daichi can be called a character.

Such a land Mao, as early as 1985, the chief maid who partnered with her, Hitomi Kuroki and his wife, both retired from the group - Watanabe Manyumi never forgot the land Mao, and Iwahashi Shinichi had a little impression of the name Hitomi Kuroki.

Junichi Watanabe's "Jun Girl", after retiring from the Takarazuka Theater Company, Hitomi Kuroki's first movie was "Incarnation" adapted from Junichi Watanabe's original book, in which he devoted himself to his life. ...... There will be cooperation in the future.

To put it this way, the last time I knew about the Takarazuka Theater Company was three years ago, and such Watanabe Manyumi was about the same as Iwahashi Shinichi who only knew Hitomi Kuroki (poor).

Coming and not being rude, Iwahashi Shinichi also made a joke about her, "Amazing." ”

was slapped in reverse, and Watanabe Manyumi laughed hard.

Jokes aside, Kansai's troupe culture is not lost to Kanto in any way. At the same time, the troupe sends a large number of actors to the entertainment industry, and the actors from the troupe constitute the bottom of the actor world.

The influence of the leaders of the big troupe has also penetrated from the troupe to the film and television industry.

For Manyumi Watanabe, who has opened an actor training class and intends to work in parallel as a singer and an actor, it is also necessary to contact the bigwigs of the troupe.

Of course, she was able to visit like this, apparently because of the connections she inherited from her father.

The older generation of practitioners is the most humane.

The connections that Watanabe Manyumi inherited from her father will not give the TV series producer the green light, but it is always okay to get an audition. If it's a small dragon role, it's probably enough to play it.

"Do you want to go with you?" Watanabe Manyumi did the same and asked him more.

The manager of her office who was in charge of accompanying her to the entertainment did not come to Osaka this time, and it seems that he wanted Shinichi Iwahashi to make a cameo appearance as her sidekick - of course, the real purpose is probably to take him to show his face to people in the industry again.

The record industry and the troupe don't seem to have much to do with each other, but in fact, the characteristics of the "circle" of the entertainment industry, I don't know when they will have a line of cooperation because of something.

"Okay. Shinichi Iwahashi naturally agreed.

This trip to Osaka seems to be a partner with Watanabe Manyumi.
