700. Secretly admired
Changing from being a guitarist to becoming a DJ does not damage the coquettish brilliance of Takuji Sakamoto (Emi Hakata). On the contrary, leaving the overly flashy band of Mimi CLUB, he now looks more proud and full of spirit.
It is worthy of being a women's clothing boss who brings hope and dreams to the world.
The two big players of the Ishii brothers and sisters disappeared, and they threw the task of taking Shinichi Iwahashi to meet with Takuji Sakamoto to Maori Amatani. Seeing this, when Minako Ishii told him that he also called Amatani Matoshi, nine out of nine, she had already calculated in her heart that she wanted to be a hands-off shopkeeper.
"I'll go with you, Iwahashi-san. β
Masashi Amaya took the task that Minako Ishii gave her, and talked to Shinichi Iwahashi. It's a very good temper.
Iwahashi Shinichi smiled at her, "I'll leave it to you." β
Hearing this, Amaya smiled, "Let's go, Iwahashi-san." β
Before coming, I made an appointment with Takuji Sakamoto in advance to meet at a time. After he stepped down from the stage, he went to the entrance of the preparation room to pick them up. In the backstage, ordinary customers are unled, so they naturally have no chance to get close.
"Iwahashi-san is busy right now. β
Only then did he come out of the dance floor, and it seemed exceptionally clean outside. Because of this, the silence is a bit awkward. On the way, Maori Amatani took the initiative to say as if he wanted to stir up a topic.
Iwahashi Shinichi let out an "um" and joked to himself, "I'm very busy, but I don't need to be modest." β
Amatani laughed at his words, glanced at him, and said a quip, "Just like your ability to dance and play the keyboard......"
It is a "fact" that does not need to be modest.
"The band starts touring next month. She said.
When I first decided to team up with Miwa-chan, it was Maori Amaya who helped introduce the guitarist who helped temporarily. THE IDENTITY OF THE GIRAFFE MAN WHO DREAMS COME TRUE IS NO SECRET TO HER.
In this way, Iwahashi Shinichi was generous and chatted with her, "The first stop is Fukuoka. ...... Has Mimi Club ever performed in Fukuoka?"
"Been there several times. "Everyone in the band loves Fukuoka, and every time the performance is over, I have to go to Nakasu Street." β
"Haha!" Iwahashi laughed.
If it's Mimi CLUB, this is normal.
"Mimi Club is also very popular now. β
Shinichi Iwahashi always keeps an eye on the popularity of the music industry and the sales on the charts, and although the changes in the band's internal members are not his concern, the mention of Mimi Club's movements in the past two years is not vague in his mind.
In 1985, when Shinichi Iwahashi first decided to become Miwa-chan's agent, Mimi Club had already signed a contract with CBS Sony and switched from an underground band to an underground band.
However, in the first few years of his debut, there has been no big splash, and he has been playing steadily and steadily, and under the arrangement of the record company, he has toured all over the country.
It wasn't until last year that it accumulated a certain amount of fame, and the released records could also be seen at the top of the charts. Generally speaking, it is a steady accumulation of popularity, and then converted into popularity.
Now, the band is not popular, but its strength has been recognized by the industry, and the record company is optimistic that they can rush forward, and the loyal fans are waiting for the moment when the band will soar to the sky.
But it's just that it's still a breath away. If you can wait for this breath, it is not a dream to be promoted to the front line, but if you can't wait, you can only hold the brand of "backbone band" and become the middle level of the music industry.
"However, even if the band is popular, I can still come out and dance like this. "Amatani said something a little naΓ―ve.
Although it is also true. Mimi CLUB's overly flashy stage style makes the other members seem blurred except for Ryuya Ishii, who has an infinite presence, and everyone knows that this band has a backup dancer, but they don't pay attention to who the backup dancer is.
And this is also the reason why the members of the band come and go will not make the audience care.
Iwahashi Shinichi replied, "I'm pretty much the same. β
Anyway, when the hood is taken off, no one loves it. It's the lead singers of their two bands, whether it's Ryuya Ishii or Miwa-chan, who are the kind of people who will only shake hands and say hello to everyone when they are recognized.
Not only that, Ryuya Ishii, who had a bold style during the underground band period, may also trigger the hidden plot of inviting beautiful female fans to drink.
Matoshi Amaya laughed again at his words, "Iwahashi-san, your dancing is so good. β
At this time, a young and fashionable woman dressed as a young woman standing at the entrance of the preparation room waved at them, "Here, two!"
Iwahashi Shinichi beckoned to Maori Amaya, "Let's go over." β
Matoshi Amaya nodded, and waited for Shinichi Iwahashi to take a few steps forward before slowly following him. When I got closer, I saw Takuji Sakamoto talking to someone-
The person he was talking to was hiding in the door of the preparation room, waiting for Takuji Sakamoto, who was waiting to greet the two of them, standing outside the door.
......
The preparation room is brightly lit and luxuriously decorated, and when you step in, it is even a little dazzling. As one of the hottest discos in Tokyo right now, Juliana's backstage prep room is ten out of ten bubble era pompous style.
Takuji Sakamoto casually introduced the person who spoke just now to Shinichi Iwahashi and Masashi Amatani, "This is Nagao-kun." β
The one who is called "Nagao-kun" is a young man. A slightly immature face makes people suspect that he may not even be twenty years old.
"Nagao-kun is still a student, working part-time on Juliana's side. Takuji Sakamoto lit a cigarette and sat down in a chair by the window. Wearing a skirt, her legs are placed diagonally, and even her sitting posture is full of femininity. It can be seen how rich his experience in women's clothing is.
"Hello two, I'm Tomoaki Nagao. β
The young man bowed to the two of them in greeting.
This young man named Tomoaki Nagao works part-time as a DJ in Juliana, but he is still a novice. After chatting, Shinichi Iwahashi learned that he was studying fashion design in Tokyo, loved music, and formed a band with friends.
is a rather fashionable young man, although his appearance is ordinary, there is nothing out of the ordinary in Zhou.
The only thing that has to do with the word "fashionable" is that Shinichi Iwahashi, who has a very fashionable girlfriend, is not very interested in what fashionable young people are doing, but when he heard him say that he was forming a band, he was a little more concerned.
"This Iwahashi-san is a very powerful band producer. Takuji Sakamoto said to Tomoaki Nagao.
There was a hint of joking in his tone. However, this hint of joking is not because he is talking back, but for another reason-
"Really?" Nagao's young and immature face was expressionless, and he looked rather cold. He coolly told Shinichi Iwahashi that he had formed a punk band, but only out of interest.
In other words, I don't have the heart to make a mainstream debut at all, and I don't have any positive ideas from the outside world, so I just plan to have fun by myself. The title of producer, here in Nagao Tomoaki, is not very attractive.
Just now, Takuji Sakamoto must have brought up this matter when he knew that Tomoaki Nagao was not interested in the title of famous producer.
But this is not necessarily to make Iwahashi cautious and not to come to the stage, but rather to make a little mockery of Nagao Tomoaki and make fun of him.
"There are more great bands than great producers. Iwahashi replied seriously.
Takuji Sakamoto couldn't help but laugh. The young man named Tomoaki Nagao didn't expect to be replied to such a sentence, and his eyes widened and he looked at the man surnamed Iwahashi.
Maori Amaya listened to it from the side, and felt in his heart that this was what Shinichi Iwahashi would say, and it was also what Shinichi Iwahashi could say.
"Ishii-san......"
With the idea of breaking this delicate atmosphere a little, Maori Amaya brought up the Ishii brothers and sisters who took the initiative to contact Takuji Sakamoto but did not appear backstage together.
Takuji Sakamoto didn't need her to explain, and showed a clear expression, "Both Ishii disappeared into the disco crowd. β
"Exactly. Shinichi Iwahashi answered.
Several people know a lot about the temperament of the Ishii siblings.
The "teachers" who lead the dancers changed shifts, and people began to come and go in the preparation room. The coolly dressed teachers walked in sweat and went out sweaty.
Occasionally, a few girls greet Takuji Sakamoto and Tomoaki Nagao.
Iwahashi Shinichi noticed that Tomoaki Nagao was quite popular with these girls.
It seems that nine out of nine are a rich man.
Teachers came and went, and the preparation room was filled with a peculiar smell of things like makeup and sweat. Takuji Sakamoto got up from his chair, "I'm going to clean up my things and have a drink together, shall we?"
"Nagao-kun, see you later. β
Takuji Sakamoto said hello to the young man. He nodded, opened a pair of big eyes, and finished responding to Takuji Sakamoto, but his gaze fell on the music producer surnamed Iwahashi again.
He still recalled in his heart that Iwahashi Shinichi's words just now that he couldn't tell whether it was sarcasm or praise.
It can be interpreted as both sarcasm and praise. Although Nagao Tomoaki didn't look down on Shinichi Iwahashi just now, in his heart, he felt that it was the latter.
However, Takumi is a reflection of Takuma, and he doesn't have a good impression of Shinichi Iwahashi who he met for the first time, and he thinks that he is a person who is too easy.
......
Sure enough, Iwahashi Shinichi didn't expect that Nagao Tomoaki was a rich man.
Sometimes, by looking at the attitude of the "teachers" towards someone in private, you can guess some clues from it. A rich kid who comes to experience life part-time, he can always have a play.
In the small bar, Shinichi Iwahashi sits in the middle, sandwiched between Matoshi Amaya and Takuji Sakamoto (Emi Hakata) on the left and right.
This seating arrangement is a bad taste of Takuji Sakamoto.
He deliberately sat down with Tiangu Zhenli, and said unashamedly, saying: "When you are seen by the people next to you, you may be secretly jealous of Iwahashi-san's popularity." β
Indeed, from a bystander's point of view, Shinichi Iwahashi was surrounded by two fairly cute girls, and they talked happily.
As soon as the hood is worn, no one loves Shinichi Iwahashi.
As soon as the women's clothes are worn, it is Takuji Sakamoto who has a bad heart.
Iwahashi Shinichi could only sigh at his proposal, "If you really get into trouble because of jealousy, it's too hard to explain." β
Because two cute girls, one on the left and one on the right, drank together, and were picked up by the drunk man in the bar. When the police arrived, it turned out that one of the girls was a women's clothing boss.
Just thinking about this development makes people feel big.
But perhaps the unfolding will make others more excited.
Takuji Sakamoto teased Shinichi Iwahashi, and Matoshi Amaya was only laughing next to him. No way, this kind of bad joke is not good if it is more serious.
As a result, Iwahashi Shinichi could only pinch his nose to endure such a once.
Takuji Sakamoto told Shinichi Iwahashi that Tomoaki Nagao is a rich family, and his goal is to enter the fashion circle in Tokyo, and forming a band is purely a hobby.
"Still, it's quite arrogant. β
Takuji Sakamoto said that he didn't appreciate Tomoaki Nagao's arrogance, or he didn't like it. This kind of somewhat complicated idea may be the reason why he deliberately mentioned that Shinichi Iwahashi is a producer just now.
Iwahashi Shinichi didn't take it seriously. Whether it's Takuji Sakamoto's teasing or Nagao Tomoaki's arrogance.
The three of them had a few drinks and chatted about something.
After Takuji Sakamoto switched careers to DJ, not only did he learn more about Tokyo's nightlife that Shinichi Iwahashi and Maori Amaya didn't know about - after all, Juliana is now Tokyo's premier disco, and celebrities from all walks of life are regulars at the store every night. Being a DJ in a place like this is not lacking in opportunities to learn a lot.
On top of that, he also learned more about underground music in Tokyo.
While chatting, Shinichi Iwahashi also heard him mention that in Tokyo's underground music scene, rap music has been a bit lively recently.
However, Takusa Sakamoto mentioned this casually, and Shinichi Iwahashi also listened to it casually and didn't take it to heart. One is that I don't know much about rap and am not interested, and the other is to understand the characteristics of rap music, which is best not to climb from the ground to the ground.
The music market is mature and developed, and all kinds of music genres, whether mainstream or not, have their own territory.
As he spoke, Shinichi Iwahashi's pager rang. He said hello to his two companions and got up to find the payphone. After returning the phone, I walked back, and I happened to run into an acquaintance-
Or the kind of acquaintance you don't really want to meet.
"Good evening, Iwahashi-san. β
didn't expect to meet here, Big Ben was stunned for a moment, came back to his senses, and took the initiative to greet him.
"Hello. β
Shinichi Iwahashi didn't expect to meet Omoto. Since the inappropriate agent has been charging on the front line, there has been little chance of encountering Big Ben.
The chance encounter that I didn't expect was somewhat accompanied by a subtle atmosphere - both sides wanted to hurry up and finish their own greetings.
So, after saying two words, Iwahashi Shinichi said goodbye and left first.
Big Ben was a little behind, and then, not necessarily on purpose, he watched Iwahashi Shinichi walk back and sit between the two young girls, and talk to them very happily.
Seeing such a scene in his eyes, Big Ben couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Although Iwahashi-san has met a few times, I know that he has two brushes in his work. However, I didn't expect this Iwahashi-san to even have a good hand at dealing with girls.
Big Ben secretly admired it in his heart.
