(Two chapters in one)

After Nansha Weaver retired, he didn't put everything related to idols into a box like Yamaguchi Baihui, and after adding three locks, he would sink to the bottom of the sea again, just to say goodbye completely.

When I was bored with my children, I played with tickets as a lyricist, and I didn't deliberately avoid my idol career, relatively speaking, my relationship with the entertainment industry was not so clear.

After retiring, CBS Sony took care of various copyright affairs during her idol period, and a while ago, Nansha Ori received a call from the staff in charge of her retirement, informing her that a new idol planned to cover her debut song "17 Years Old".

She didn't pay much attention to it, to put it bluntly, the staff's phone call was just telling her that such an incident had happened, although it involved a re-adaptation, but it was the songwriter who really had to ask for permission.

For Nansha Weaving, the songs he used to have are now covered by unknown newcomer idols, which is not something that needs to be treated seriously.

Later, Chisato Moritaka's single was released, and out of courtesy, Warner Pioneer also sent the finished single to Minami Oori, lyricist Mikeiko Arima, and composer Kyohei Tsurumi through CBS Sony.

After Nansha Weaving received the single, he auditioned it, and the song was adapted into a popular genre, and no trace of the past could be found.

At first hearing such an unfamiliar "17 Years Old", Nansha Weaving was a little difficult to accept, and really felt that his past idol career was covered by a new era.

However, such a strange "17 Years Old" and at the same time a familiar "17 Years Old", while feeling that this is no longer her own era, there is also a tangible feeling that the current era is born out of the era she once had.

It turns out that his old songs and the current pop can still collide with such sparks?

Nansha Weaving doesn't like Moritaka Chisato very much, but it can't be denied that this is a unique cover.

After listening to it, Nansha Weaving put the single away.

As a result, after a while, this cover of "17 Years Old" suddenly became a topic, and even the staff in charge of CBS Sony called her to tell her that because of the enthusiastic response to the cover of Chisato Moritaka, even the version with the original song of Nansha Weaving has gained attention again, and the company has also received a petition to republish her "17 Years Old".

"The current situation seems that Mori Taka's cover is bound to become popular and become a popular force that cannot be underestimated. So, the company is also counting the feedback from record stores and listeners and considering a reissue of your "17 Years Old". CBS Sony staff reported to Nansha.

Hearing the news, Nansha Weaving was surprised.

Not only did the staff give her such news, but the eldest son, who was already an elementary school student, came home one day and told her that he had heard his mother's previous songs on the school radio.

Unexpectedly, ten years after her retirement, a cover song will also turn her old songs into popularity. The old things, in the new era, have blossomed beautifully.

Coming from the era of the popular ancestor idol, he was once a star sought after by people all over the country, and Nansha Weaving didn't know how many he had seen in the big scene. However, the attention to her now brought up through a cover song has moved her extraordinarily, even better than the limelight that was once the attention of the whole country when she was a girl.

Through this cover, the audience turned their attention to her debut song. The audience will recall that she was also seventeen years old.

I also had a time when I was seventeen...... Nan Nan Zhi couldn't help but burst into tears when he thought of this.

For Nansha Weaving, who is already a mother of three children, middle-aged and a housewife, this can't help but move her, with the popularity of the old song, the audience's memory awakens, and her youth seems to have recovered.

Becoming an idol and leaving her works preserved her youth forever.

Because of this, after her husband Norinobu Sasayama came home, she showed him this single. Obviously, when I first received it, I just listened to it once, and I took the single aside.

When introducing the single to Norinobu Sasayama, Nansha told him, "I can now appreciate the value of the job of a photographer, which is a great job that permanently freezes beautiful things and makes 'beauty' never disappear." ”

It is rare for his wife to express her opinion on the work of Norinobu Sasayama, and it is surprising to hear such words from her mouth, but in any case, even if you are a first-class photographer, it is a pleasure to be recognized by your wife for your work.

Then, Noshinobu Sasayama knew that his wife's emotion was not for no reason, but from a single that covered her famous song.

After retiring for ten years and becoming a mother of three children, she still touched the shadow of youth, Nansha Ori felt as if she was getting younger again, and the girlish demeanor that radiated like this made it incredible even for Sasayama Norinobu to see it in her eyes.

Even if a person reaches middle age, the part of Nansha Weaving that belongs to a girl has not really been erased.

Realizing this, Noshinobu Sasayama is proud. Cynthia, who once came from the south, married him, and his married life, did not erase the shadow of her girlhood, which is undoubtedly an affirmation of him.

In fact, Nansha's youth has always been there, but it has fallen asleep, not "disappeared". And now, this cover single has undoubtedly induced dreams and shadows about youth.

Nansha Ori thanked the person who made the single from the bottom of her heart, and thought about writing a letter to the producer of the single, as well as Chisato Moritaka who covered the song.

She found the words "Producer: Shinichi Iwahashi" on the record sleeve, and called CBS Sony staff to confirm that it was a single outsourced by Warner Pioneer to GENZO.

"Iwahashi Shinichi-san ......"

Nansha wrote the name on the letterhead, and Sasayama Norinobu also knew it.

The surname Iwahashi is not very common, and today I came to shoot the cover of this band, and the members of the band are surnamed Iwahashi. The surname is Iwahashi, and he is still a musician, and Sasayama Kishinobu thinks it's quite a coincidence, but he doesn't say anything.

After a while, the break was over, and the staff came over to call them. Iwahashi Shinichi picked up the hood and put it on his head again, Miwa-chan smiled next to him: "Shinichichi-kun, hard work~"

The giraffe man, who lost his feelings as soon as he put on the hood, ignored her.

Shen Yijun?

In this way, this person's name is "Shinichi Iwahashi". Sasayama Kishinobu looked at it a little strangely, is there really such a coincidental duplicate name? Or is this Iwahashi Shinichi that Iwahashi Shinichi?

Miwa-chan stretched out her hand to straighten out the hood for Iwahashi Shinichi, and Masato Nakamura stood behind the two of them, with his hands on his hips, looking at it with a smile, looking not surprised.

Such a picture looks so harmonious.

Sasayama moved confidently, raised his camera, and froze the scene.

......

A few days later, Iwahashi returned to Kawasaki's office and found a somewhat unusual one among the stacks of letters sent by the clerk.

"Iwahashi-san, thank you for choosing this song and giving it a whole new color. I sincerely hope that you will be able to bring more excellent works in the future. ”

Such a text message expressing gratitude, the payee is Nansha Weaving.

The letter was not sent by Nansha Ori herself, but was written by her and handed over to the staff of CBS Sony, and then sent GNZO through CBS Sony, which is a relatively standard practice of "going to the table without personal relationships".

The top idol of the previous generation personally wrote a thank you letter to him, and Iwahashi Shinichi was surprised, but he also really realized how hot Chisato Moritaka is now.

Otherwise, the letter would not have been written before, but only now.

Famous singers, there are people covering their famous songs every year, but few of them deserve the attention of the main character. It is undoubtedly an affirmation to receive a letter of thanks from Nansha Weaving himself, both from the quality of the song itself and the popularity brought by the song.

The next day, Shinichi Iwahashi went to Warner Vanguard to participate in the selection of Chisato Moritaka's next single. Chisato Moritaka himself also attended this song selection meeting, and he also followed Shinichi Iwahashi's previous instructions and brought the lyrics she had filled in.

The route of the next single has been set, and the music style is still a European dance style, and it is not easy to gain attention through the adaptation of "17 Years Old", and a rash transformation will only lead to a heel.

Again, it is better to knock out bricks piece by piece and replace them than to tear down a wall in one go.

At the song selection meeting, the lyrics filled in by Chisato Moritaka were also put on the conference table and included in the scope of discussion. Compared to when he was first taken over by Shinichi Iwahashi, Chisato Moritaka has made significant progress in lyrics.

After deciding on the sales method of giving up the powerful faction and starting from scratch to add points, Mori Taka's mentality was also flattened, leaving room for self-examination.

Compared to the initial eagerness to show the lyrics in order to get affirmation, the lyrics written by Chisato Moritaka now seem much calmer.

Rather than how to "show herself", she began to pay more attention to thinking about what she wanted to express and the theme she wanted to describe.

This is undoubtedly a good sign, and likewise, being able to realize your own problems and correct them for the better is also evident in the fact that Chisato Moritaka has a talent as a lyricist.

A few lyrics were read by the people on the Warner Pioneer side, and they also felt that there were some remarkable points. Of course, it's not enough to be the main song of a new single, but if it's a C/W song or album song, it's not bad.

After the song selection meeting ended, out of the conference room, Chisato Moritaka and his agent waited to say hello to Shinichi Iwahashi. Kawashima seems to be like that at all times, "Iwahashi-san, Mori Gao will ask you next." ”

Being an agent is such a job that requires you to keep your head down and say good things, and Iwahashi Shinichi himself is also an agent, so he is also accustomed to this, and politely greets Kawashima, and then his eyes fall on the expectant Mori Taka.

Her expression almost put "I have something to say to you" on her face.

"Iwahashi-san. ”

Chisato Moritaka finally got a chance to speak, "I received a handwritten letter from Nansha Zhisan himself. ”

"Really?"

Nansha Zhisang said that he liked the version I sang very much, and cheered for me, he was really a gentle star. "Chisato Moritaka was flattered and satisfied with the encouragement he received from the Lord.

Writing letters to producers and singers respectively, Nansha Weaving also really has a heart. And now, no matter who affirms it, it is like the icing on the cake, because the hot sales have already proved everything.

In the new week, the record sales statistics came out, and at the same time, whether it was Warner Pioneer or the office of Chisato Moritaka, they were all reporting the same thing.

“...... Next is the sales of Chisato Moritaka's single "17 Years Old". Sensato Moritaka's direct agent said.

Kenichi Yamauchi is still sitting here today, waiting to hear the sales of Chisato Moritaka's single. Ever since he was assigned the task of contacting Kichiichiro Kawahata, he has been particularly concerned about the sales of this single.

And as the single's results get better and better, Kenichi Yamauchi's attention has also changed from "whether his efforts have been in vain" to "I want to see how far this single can go".

A total of 27,000 CDs, LPs, and cassettes were sold, once again setting a new best result since her debut, winning the eighth place in the charts and the first time she has entered the top 10 since her debut. ”

Breaking into the top 10 for the first time is really exciting news!

And the triumphant debriefing continued," ...... On the cable broadcast side, Mori Taka-san's single on-demand number won the fifth place on the on-demand chart, and he is the singer who has jumped the fastest in recent times. ”

There's nothing more comforting than sitting on the sidelines and listening to the good news, Ken Yamauchi thought.

From a street idol to breaking into the TOP10, it has taken a little more than half a year before and after, which is not a long time.

After the transformation, the three singles are gradually transformed, first through the first two to transform, and then use the cover of the famous song as a signboard to make a name, every step is in the plan, and the expectations are accurately completed.

Although Kenichi Yamauchi had never met Shinichi Iwahashi and didn't know where this producer came from, he had a nameless trust in him because of this beautiful transformation plan.

The source of this trust may also be related to the remarkable achievements of Mori Gao Chisato who are currently reporting, like when I went on a blind date, I already had a good impression of each other, and there was a matchmaker who always said good things to each other.

Water can cook porridge and push boats.

The boat slowly floated over and floated in front of Kenichi Yamauchi.

Kenichi Yamauchi listened to the report and thought to himself, this Iwahashi-san seems to have a good way of making idols. Now that the company is preparing to launch a newcomer who has been assigned to his direct subordinates, can you consider inviting Iwahashi-san to be the producer?

Although his fame is not as good as that of those well-known big-name producers, his methods are beautiful and he has his own ideas.

This thought sparked in Kenichi Yamauchi's mind, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was necessary to at least talk to this Iwahashi-san and listen to his thoughts.
