Two chapters in one)

Haruko Akamatsu has always been a little too reserved on the occasion of the friendship, and at this time she offered to carpool, and the classmates who called her over to participate in the friendship were a little surprised.

Haruko Akamatsu, who waits for others to discuss a plan every time and then votes for it, actually took the initiative?

With such an initiative, Akamatsu probably thinks that this person who works in a construction company is good, right? For a moment, such a simple thought flashed in the minds of the classmates who were frightened by her.

The office workers of the construction company were very happy, "I am very welcome here, please." ”

Among the girls who came to participate in the party tonight, Haruko Akamatsu and Sachiko Kamachi were the most beautiful, although they were also the most beautiful, the two most reserved and introverted, and they were not gregarious enough.

On occasions like friendship, although you will get attention because of your appearance when you meet for the first time, people who are cheerful and extroverted and have a little posture must be more of a focus than people who are beautiful but subtle and introverted.

Despite this, the two big beauties, even if they look at them, are pleasing enough to the eye. Now, both of them are riding in his car, and one of them has taken the initiative, and the office workers of the construction company seem to be ahead of the curve.

Other men couldn't envy him, and Haruko Akamatsu chose it himself, so he could only let him rush in front of everyone.

Haruko Akamatsu thanked the office workers of the construction company and said hello to Okamoto and Sachiko Kabuike, who were about to share the car. The two models, who both noticed tonight that this girl who was beautiful enough to be an actress, was now about to share a car, and politely returned the salute to her.

"Well, we'll see you later, guys!"

The office workers of the construction company are in high spirits, as if they have become winners in life, and the gentleman asks the three girls to get in the car first.

Tonight, among the men and women who came to participate in the friendship together, Sachiko Kamaike was most impressed by Haruko Akamatsu. When I came to the restaurant box for dinner, I was first amazed by Haruko Akamatsu's appearance.

Whether it is the delicate high nose bridge or the neat teeth that are exposed when she laughs, it makes Sachiko Kamaike feel envious.

She has always been unconfident in the bridge of her nose, and she is even more inferior to the two front teeth that are slightly bigger, and she doesn't smile very much.

In terms of appearance, Haruko Akamatsu is indeed impeccable, the kind of beauty that even if she is also a woman, she wants to admire, but what impresses Sachiko Kamachi even more about Haruko Akamatsu is that she is also like herself, and she doesn't know how to integrate into the atmosphere of friendship.

On such an occasion, there was a similar person there, which made Sachiko Kamachi breathe a sigh of relief, and she didn't feel so sorry.

If it's hard to fit into the atmosphere alone, Sachiko Kamaike will feel very embarrassed, so she has to make herself work hard to fit in, and with Haruko Akamatsu here, she can be lazy on such an occasion.

Actually, she didn't plan to come to this party because her friend Natsuo Okamoto told her that people from record companies would also participate in tonight's party.

"First you go to dinner, then you go to the disco, and then you go to karaoke, Yuki-chan, and then you show your hand in front of the record company, and you might be hit!" Natsuo Okamoto encouraged.

Since deciding to resign from the real estate company at the end of February, dialing the phone number on the business card of the star scout of the Star Office, and signing her first brokerage contract, after two weeks of simple training, Sachiko Kamaike has become a model under the Star Office who can't see where the future is.

Obviously, because he wanted to become a singer, he decided to quit his job and join the entertainment industry, but he made his debut as a model.

Signed her star agency, when it first started operating, the main business of Anli was the contract of acting for models, and it is also quite rich in resources in the modeling industry, but now it focuses on the development of actors, but in the operation of singers, the attitude seems negative.

Sachiko Kamaike already knew about these things when she signed the contract.

She called the scout, and after meeting, she confided in the scout, telling him that her dream was to become a singer. The scout was blunt and replied to her: "However, it is difficult to become a singer. ”

Sachiko Kamaike herself knows that at her age, the conditions for her debut as a singer are not good.

However, the scout's analysis is much more ruthless. A twenty-one-year-old girl, it's too late to debut as an idol, and she's a little tall, and her appearance lacks the feeling of an idol, and she's not good at dancing.

With such conditions, if you go to participate in the idol draft, you will probably be brushed off in the first round.

As for not being an idol and being a SOLO singer, now that SOLO singers are in a recession, even if the firm wants to get involved in the singer business, it is more willing to be a little more secure and choose someone with solid skills than an amateur player with a blank slate.

After the scout's analysis, Sachiko Kamaike was devastated. However, the scout went on to say, "Although it is a model debut, it will not always let you do the work of a model." In other words, in the current entertainment industry, the division of labor is no longer as clear as in the past, singers can act, actors can also release records, models can be on TV, and movies may be made. ”

Since it is possible to do any job, there is also a chance to sing.

For Sachiko Kamaike, the entertainment world is like a house with many doors, but she doesn't know which door leads to her dreams.

Not only that, but she also knew that if she decided not to touch anything except the singer's door, she would probably only be able to sing in a karaoke tavern in front of office workers.

So far, that's the only way to do it.

However, as long as you don't give up your dream of singing, you will have a chance to go to the place where your dream is, even if you take another path for a while.

After graduating from junior high school, I go back and forth between home and Tokyo every day to work, and I am unwilling to accumulate until now, and if I can't do something for my dream, Sachiko Kabuike can't settle down.

It's because of this idea that even though her colleagues at a real estate company are the kind of woman who is dazzled by today's times, even if she starts with the work she is not good at showing herself in front of the camera, she still signed a contract with Xingchen Office.

Jump out of the life track of the pink-collar family and start as a model.

"That's right, Kamaike-san!"

The scout accepted the letter of intent to sign the contract, with a cordial attitude, telling her, "As long as you enter this circle, there are infinite possibilities." ...... Now is the time to sell everything that can be sold, so the beauty of oneself is infinitely valuable. ”

Sachiko Kamaike agrees with the scout's first half of the sentence, but doesn't agree with his statement that he "sells everything she can".

Okamoto Natsusheng was the girl who was signed by the Star Office at the same time as her, and the office cast a wide net and signed a dozen or so girls with no experience in the entertainment industry in one go, which is probably like buying a bunch of cheap lottery tickets in one go.

I don't know which one will scratch the real jackpot, but fortunately, this pile of lottery tickets has at least 500 yen encouragement prize - as long as you sign a contract, you will go to work, and this kind of model hardly requires the investment of the firm.

The dozen or so girls who signed the contract were all for the signing money, for the generous remuneration for taking photos, and the opportunity to be able to contact people in the entertainment industry, so they became models, and they did not have that clear "dream".

Indeed, even the lowest model can earn more than being a fan-collar family. Girls want to buy beautiful jewelry, buy designer bags, wear fur coats, and if they want to keep up with the rhythm of this high-speed era, they need money to be the lubricant.

Among these girls, the reason why Sachiko Kamaike became friends with Natsu Okamoto was because of a certain model group party.

In the karaoke box, after the microphone reached Sachiko Kamaike, she sang a song of Misato Watanabe's "My Revolution", and after singing, Natsuo Okamoto took the initiative to approach her and said to her, "Kamaike-san, hello can sing!"

Not only that, but when there are a lot of people, she looks restrained, but when she sings, she seems to forget that tension, and such a Sachiko Kamaike also makes Natsuo Okamoto feel very interesting.

The extroverted Okamoto Natsuo took the initiative to approach, and the two gradually became the two girls with the best relationship in the same period.

Twenty-one-year-old Sachiko Kamaike has her side of her persistence in her dreams, as well as the side of an ordinary twenty-one-year-old girl in this era.

Although the work of modeling makes her shy, and she has to prepare for a long time in advance to get into the state every time, but when it comes to payday, she gets paid several times more than when she was a fan collar family, and she will go shopping with Natsuo Okamoto and buy a brand-name bag to reward herself.

Once you enter the world of entertainment, the infinite possibilities may not be immediately unfolded in front of you, but the infinite temptation really unfolds in front of these people.

In the economic era, there were various parties every night, and they were invited from time to time to participate in various social activities under the leadership of the office, and they were not only reimbursed for the transportation expenses, but also received at least 20,000 yen in red envelopes as long as they were present.

If you are not determined to be in such a world, and you will remember the existence of dreams at all times, then I am afraid that you will soon be lost.

Sachiko Kamaike is careful not to let herself fall into such a whirlpool.

Natsuo Okamoto is very sociable and likes to participate in social gatherings. With her there, Sachiko Kamaike was also taken to participate in several sorority parties organized by Okamoto Natsuo's friends.

However, her personality is mischievous and outgoing in front of acquaintances, and once she is in an environment full of strangers, she immediately stiffens like a frog targeted by a snake, and it is always difficult to fit into the atmosphere.

With her participating, if all eyes were on her, it would most likely make the atmosphere delicate. After doing this two or three times, Sachiko Kamachi politely told Okamoto Natsuo that she was not suitable for such an occasion.

Okamoto Natsuo also felt so, and he really didn't invite her to the sorority again.

However, a few days ago, he suddenly told her about friendship, "Yuki-chan, will you go too?"

Sachiko Kamaike heard Natsuo Okamoto say that there were people from the record company who participated, but compared to Natsuo Okamoto's naïve statement of "surprising the people of the record company", it was better to say that it was because she was grateful to Natsuo Okamoto for remembering her dream, so she couldn't refuse.

At today's sorority, Sachiko Kamaike behaved as usual, and she was as unsociable as she had been a few times before, but because there was another misfit Haruko Akamatsu, that atmosphere was alleviated.

This Akamatsu-san was probably brought by a friend, right?" Sachiko Kamaike thought to herself.

In the taxi to the karaoke box, Sachiko Kamaike and Haruko Akamatsu are separated by Natsuo Okamoto.

The construction company office worker sitting in the passenger seat said to Natsuo Okamoto as if he had lost three people in one breath, and Sachiko Kamachi and Haruko Akamatsu shared the remaining one's share equally.

Occasionally, as if realizing that the other party is just like herself, she is not very good at dealing with friendships, Sachiko Kamachi subconsciously goes to see Haruko Akamatsu, and finds that Haruko Akamatsu also sets her eyes on her.

Obviously afraid of life, Sachiko Kamachi looked at Haruko Akamatsu, but showed a smile of mutual understanding.

Tonight, compared to the Tokuma Records staff who Natsuo Okamoto wanted to introduce to Sachiko Kamaike, who wanted to introduce Sachiko Kamaike to the inside story of the record company and which singer idols he had seen, Sachiko Kamachi was Haruko Akamatsu, who worked part-time at GENZO.

When Haruko Akamatsu said the name GENZO, Sachiko Kamaike cared more than anyone else. As a loyal viewer of the band's heavenly kingdom, Sachiko Kamaike is no stranger to this production company, as well as the name of Iwahashi Shinichichi-san, who is sometimes mentioned by the show's censors.

IWAHASHI-SAN NOT ONLY PLANNED THIS BAND AUDITION, BUT WAS ALSO THE PLANNER OF THE PREVIOUS NAONのYAON, PROVIDING AN OPPORTUNITY FOR MANY UNDERGROUND BANDS TO SHOW THEMSELVES AND THEN GO MAINSTREAM.

Sachiko Kamaike knows about his deeds and respects him very much.

Because of this, when the staff of Tokuma Records tried to gossip about the mysterious Iwahashi-san, his rash attitude made Sachiko Kakaike feel a lot of discount in his impression, and he didn't expect Okamoto Natsuo to be photographed by someone from the record company, recommended to his boss, and then the record company negotiated with the office.

The journey from disco to karaoke box is not too long and arrives quickly.

The group of people who had been together tonight gathered in the karaoke box again after a short "separation". The microphones started with the initiator of the friendship and passed down one after another.

"Next, it's Kamachi-san!"

"Oh——!!"

No matter who was going to sing next, everyone present was very enthusiastic about the atmosphere, and Sachiko Kamaike took the microphone.

"What do you want to sing? ”

"Ko-chan is the best at singing!" Natsuo Okamoto ceremoniously introduced her friend's best to the people present.

"Really?"

"It's exciting!"

"However, Xia Sheng-chan raised everyone's expectations so high all of a sudden, Kamaike-san will be very stressed, right?" said the construction company employee for Sachiko Kamaike.

The seniors who work in the record company make an insider's evaluation, "What the hell is going on?"
