145. The goal is emerging
The answer he received from Shinichi Iwahashi surprised Watanabe Manyumi.
Shinichi Iwahashi's aggressiveness and determination, as well as the results he has achieved, prove that if there is an unfettered stage, he will definitely be able to make a difference.
Now, with him out of the office, he will no longer have to be suppressed by his seniority in the future...... originally thought it was a hit-and-shoot thing, but Watanabe Manyumi didn't expect Iwahashi Shinichi to refuse.
The emotion and happiness that surged in my heart when I danced with him just now was pressed down at this moment, and after the tenderness in Watanabe Manyumi's heart receded, she turned to reason and began to think about this problem.
Previously, the two showed the same heart, looked at things, and acted in a similar way, and even when they communicated just now, they both saw that the future was the era of the band. Watanabe Manyumi mentally lists similar views to Shinichi Iwahashi, intending to prove that her invitation is reasonable and unobtrusive.
However, after thinking about it, the confusion after being rejected by him slowly pointed to a fact that was ignored by Watanabe Manyumi.
That is, when it comes to Shinichi Iwahashi, Manyumi Watanabe still lacks the necessary understanding.
To be precise, it is clearly understood that he is talented, but this kind of like-minded heart-to-heart connection confuses Watanabe Manyumi and makes her forget one thing, she lacks understanding of the person "Shinichi Iwahashi".
She didn't know what Shinichi Iwahashi was aiming for, and what he wanted.
A considerable part of this frustration in winning an empty prize comes from the fact that Shinichi Iwahashi showed a side she didn't understand.
Watanabe Manyumi fell silent, and Shinichi Iwahashi couldn't say anything more.
After this happened, the two of them did not continue to stay outside for a long time. Back in the hall, the song was coming to an end. When the band was resting, Kenichiro Nozaki and the daughter of Director Hosoda walked over together. Director Hosoda's daughter invited Shinichi Iwahashi, "I didn't catch you just now, so let's dance together?"
She was enthusiastic about the dance party, and she was impressed by Iwahashi's outstanding dancing skills, but she was not at all as reserved as when they first met. ...... Of course, there are other reasons for this.
Shinsei Iwahashi glanced at Watanabe Manyumi, and by this time, Director Hosoda's daughter had already put her hand on his shoulder.
The two walked onto the dance floor.
The waiter with the tray walked over, and Watanabe Manyumi brought another glass of whiskey to drink. Kenichiro Nozaki asked Watanabe Manyumi, "Where did you two just go?"
Watanabe Manyumi smiled slightly, "I suddenly wanted to enjoy the night cherry blossoms, so I called Iwahashi-san to go and see it together." ”
"Cherry blossoms at night? If I had known this, I would have followed you. Kenichiro Nozaki laughed.
What else to say, looking at Watanabe Manyumi's reaction, it seems that she is not very keen on this topic, and not only that, but the atmosphere between him and Iwahashi Shinichi has also changed, so he took back what he originally wanted to say. Flash Dance
There is no real silly white sweet present tonight, and even the people who are funny are the wine ladies of Ginza.
Shinichi Iwahashi and Director Hosoda's daughter are swaying on the dance floor, and the two work together. Watanabe Manyumi sipped wine while watching the woman's fluttering skirt. Every time I spin, I reveal the red shoes under my feet. There are not many people who can wear red shoes with a sense of beauty, although her appearance is not outstanding enough, she is young and forceful, and she is unexpectedly full of vitality in red.
As they passed by, Watanabe Manyumi heard Director Hosoda's daughter ask Shinichi Iwahashi, "...... Is that so?"
Iwahashi Shinichi's lips moved, and he didn't know what to reply.
Watanabe Manyumi was a little concerned. While she was attracted by the events in the field, she thought about the conversation she had with Shinichi Iwahashi in the courtyard and Shinichi Iwahashi's response, and unconsciously drank the wine in her glass and picked up another glass.
......
Ayako Hosoda was just twenty years old and was studying at Musashino Art University, and it was when she was dancing that she told Shinichi Iwahashi.
"Are you a staff member of Watanabe Productions?" asked Ayako Hosoda.
"Yes. ”
Ayako Hosoda smiled ambiguously when she heard this, "Is it just a clerk? ”
When she said this, she was immediately satisfied, as if the main purpose of inviting Shinichi Iwahashi was to find out about it.
"How can such a thing be a lie? Iwahashi Shinichi replied politely.
Even so, Ayako Hosoda's question also made his heart move, and he subconsciously paid attention to the edge of the venue.
Watanabe Manyumi accepted Kenichiro Nozaki's invitation again and walked onto the dance floor with him. Dancing and dancing, I suddenly felt dizzy, as if I was drunk. She was lightly guided by Kenichiro Nozaki, spinning round and round, and the more she did this, the more she felt unwell.
As soon as the dance was over, he left him and returned to his seat and sat down.
Shinichi Iwahashi let go of Ayako Hosoda, saw that it was not early, and wanted to ask if he wanted to go back, but when he came to Watanabe Manyumi, he saw her sitting there with one hand on her cheek, "Your face is not very good, are you uncomfortable?"
"Maybe a little drunk. Watanabe Manyumi lowered her voice and said to him alone.
She had a pink face, not like a drunken blush, but as if she was ashamed that she was drunk on such an occasion.
Shinichi Iwahashi expressed his understanding, did not say anything, and only took a glass of ice water for her.
After drinking some ice water and feeling more comfortable, Watanabe Manyumi said to him, "Let's go back, Iwahashi-san." 35xs”
......
Shinnichi Iwahashi put Watanabe in the back seat of the car and started the car.
When they came, the two talked happily, but on the way back, they remained silent. Of course, there is a reason why Watanabe Manyumi is a little drunk and can't lift her spirits, but it also has something to do with the previous conversation.
Once the night train is silent, it seems that the return journey is extraordinarily long.
After driving onto the highway, Iwahashi Shinichi was worried about Watanabe Manyumi, but he broke his silence and asked, "Do you feel unwell?"
Watanabe Manyumi didn't answer, but asked rhetorically, "Did Iwahashi-san decide to stay in Watanabe to produce?"
“......”
Shinichi Iwahashi didn't answer the question right away.
Although Watanabe Manyumi was a little drunk, she was still sober in her heart, and Iwahashi Shinichi's hesitation made her realize: "Could it be that you are going to leave Watanabe Production?"
"It's hard to say. Iwahashi was ambiguous.
Even if Misa Watanabe agrees that he will continue to work in Watanabe Production, Miki Yoshida may not be able to tolerate him as a "universal beauty pie". Besides, once Watanabe Manyumi leaves the office and leaves him alone, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do it alone, and even if he stays there, it will be difficult to perform, and there is no need to continue to stay.
Not answering "yes" is about the same as "no", Watanabe Manyumi already knows it.
He didn't stay at Watanabe to make it, and he didn't go with her, what did he think?
It was also a hurry, and Watanabe Manyumi blurted out, "Isn't there someone else who wants to recruit Iwahashi-san?"
When she asked this, she regretted it.
Iwahashi didn't care, and replied, "It's not because of that. ”
There is no other thing to poach people. Even with his current situation, with his previous two achievements, if he leaves Watanabe Productions, even if he is not introduced by Watanabe Misah, it will not be difficult to find a job at another studio. However, he has no plans to move to another firm.
"What about you...... What do you think?" Watanabe was confused by him.
Iwahashi Shinichi asked rhetorically, "What do you think?"
"Me?"
"In what capacity are you going to let me follow you out of Watanabe Productions?"
Watanabe was stunned.
Shinichi Iwahashi asked a similar question to his mother.
Indeed, not considering whether Shinichi Iwahashi will become Shinichi Watanabe, now that he is struggling with Watanabe Manyumi, it is tantamount to pressing himself on her.
What about the future? The future is uncertain.
Watanabe suddenly realizes her wishful thinking—she is imagining that Shinichi Iwahashi is making an invitation in the same way as her.
Now he is very compatible with Watanabe Manyumi, but once he changes in the future, he will still fall into passivity. If he left her as a subordinate, and his future would depend on her, Iwahashi Shinichi wouldn't be able to do it.
Having already tasted the taste of being constrained, Shinichi Iwahashi wants to hold his fate in his own hands more than believing that others will always be Bole and confidants.
However, if he is a collaborator, what will he use to buy shares?
Wait、Empty gloves white wolf?
The small light bulb "biu" in Iwahashi Shinichi's head lit up at once—just as he was thinking about the choice that Misa Watanabe had thrown at him.
It was the faint brightness of this small bulb that gave him the determination to say "no" to Mayumi Watanabe.
"I know it's a good choice to work with you. ”
Now, the two of them have opened their minds and spoken freely. Regarding this, Shinichi Iwahashi also admitted.
After talking to Misa Watanabe, Iwahashi Shinichi thought about this question, "It's not that I don't want to work hard with you, I just want to think about another way to work hard." ”
"Another way?"
"Yes. Iwahashi replied, remembering that it was just a sharp thought.
Hearing him say this, Watanabe Manyumi was a little relieved, "What are you going to do?"
"You've found what you've worked for, and I've found something to sell. Iwahashi said.
Just like Watanabe Manyumi was determined to become independent because she found this goal, Shinichi Iwahashi also wanted to take this step because she found the goal she was working on next.
"It's a 'band,' right?"
"Yes. To be precise, I think it's going to be a golden age of CDs. "Shinichi Iwahashi has no intention of hiding his thoughts in front of Watanabe Manyumi.
"What do you say?" Watanabe was intrigued and a little energetic.
Now is obviously the era of the record market declining year after year, and strong people such as Akina Nakamori and the checkered band cannot change this situation, and last year's record chart only topped more than 500,000 copies.
However, in this case, this man asserts that the future will be the golden age of music.
"It's true that the record market is declining year by year, but I think there will soon be a new round of growth. The reason for this assertion comes from a statistic. ”
"Last year, CD production surpassed LP and became the number one shipment of all media. ”
"In fact, CD has a natural advantage among all kinds of media. Iwahashi said.
"The sound quality of the LP is undoubtedly better than that of the CD, but it is not convenient enough, and the tuning of the vinyl record player is also a big problem. Although tapes are convenient, they are more advanced than CDs and have a low degree of musical distortion. Of course, it's still the same problem, it's more convenient to use a CD player to select songs than to use a tape. ”
"So it can be said that CD is a product that has the advantages of both LP and tape. ”
"Removing these technical factors, as far as we say," Iwahashi said, referring to his status as an industry insider, "the production cost of CDs is low enough, so even the producers will definitely prefer CDs in the future." In order to promote it to occupy the market in an all-round way, it will even make efforts in many ways. ”
Watanabe Manyumi listened very carefully.
She didn't expect that Iwahashi Shinichi would look at the next situation from the perspective of media media. But it's also true that as he said, the advantages of CD are extremely clear.
"It's a lot like when TV was just starting to spread among the people. Iwahashi said.
"Thanks to the Olympics, the number of television sets in the stock has jumped dramatically. But at that time, many people didn't believe that the next day would be the era of television, and Shin-san Watanabe and your father saw the potential of television and went all out to enter the industry, and it turned out to be a success. ”
Including the background of the times, when the TV era arrived, it was the first golden age of economic take-off. And now, the background of the CD era is the bubble era that boiled to the top after the Plaza Accord was signed.
"Yes. At the mention of her father, Watanabe nodded. I can't help but feel in my heart again.,Now Iwahashi Shin'ichi, who is sure to say that the future is the CD era.,Similar to my father in acting.。
"So, now is the time to seize CDs. ”
Shinichi Iwahashi vowed that "the advantages of CDs are very obvious, the record companies think so, and the Volkswagen will think so after comparison, and after that, even the equipment in the car will change from a tape player to a CD player." ”
"Besides, in the future, if it is the era of bands, bands are not like idols, they can't participate in music programs intensively every day, and if they want to hear their songs, they have to pay obediently, so the sales of records will definitely jump. ”
"The music market is about to undergo a big change. ”
From Shinichi Iwahashi's summary, Watanabe Manyumi saw a small flame of ambition. This outpouring of ambition surprised Watanabe Manyumi.
After the conversation box opened, the two of them began to talk freely again, and what they said revolved around this common goal - the band.
By the time we arrived in Tokyo, it was already late at night. After getting off the highway, Shinichi Iwahashi asked Watanabe Manyumi, "Where is your home?"
Watanabe Manyumi newspaper an address in the direction of Yotsuya.
Shin Iwahashi drove the car over, thinking it was the Watanabe family, but it turned out to be a high-end apartment.
