Fujifilm reception is not low, and at night we have dinner and invite geisha to perform to entertain us.

Geisha accompaniment, that is, in such a bubble era, when the entertainment expenses are not exhausted, can be so extravagant.

But in the same way, it is only in the bubble era, in which no matter what you do, you must pursue the most gorgeous, throw away the right one, and hug the expensive one, in such an atmosphere, will you be reminded of this "traditional ancient culture" when arranging entertainment.

When Shinichi Iwahashi looks at the geisha's performance, his mood is about the same as when he sees the crooked nuts of a Peking Opera performer, and he has an unclear freshness.

In fact, around the time of the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, the revival of the depressed geisha studios was partly due to the good economic situation in Japan, and partly due to the large number of foreign tourists visiting Japan.

But freshness is probably the most unreliable, and it comes and goes quickly.

To put it simply, the decline of this line of work is inevitable after the old things of the old era are impacted by the new era. In this age of bubbles, geisha are invited to perform at banquets, and their function is no different from the gold leaf spilled on ice cream.

The "sprinkled with gold leaf" dinner ended, and the group moved on to a different place. When I arrived at the social club, everyone was refreshed, but they were much more comfortable than when they talked and laughed during the dinner.

Iwahashi Shinichi has been very busy lately, and he hasn't been to his sister and brother-in-law's house for dinner for a while. The brother-in-law and brother-in-law cooperated tacitly this time, and the advertising campaign was also a great success. This time, we came out to drink flower wine together, and when we met again, we didn't have anything to say.

While they were chatting, the representative in charge of the negotiation on the Fujifilm side at the time came over and squeezed his eyebrows with Iwahashi Shinichi, "Something good will happen tomorrow, Iwahashi-kun." ”

Iwahashi Shinichi asked him what was a good thing, but he was so mysterious that he refused to reveal it.

Usually, the representative of Fujifilm is quite human. However, the yellow soup is in the club with a warm atmosphere, so it is not surprising that there is any foreign appearance.

What's going to happen tomorrow?

However, generally speaking, a good thing that can be tricked into the next day is not an important good thing, and it may not even be a "good thing." ”

The representative of Fujifilm wanted to sell Guanzi, and he simply did not pursue it.

We'll see tomorrow anyway.

......

As a result, the next day, a representative of Fujifilm introduced Kikuchi Momoko to him.

Previously, Shin Iwahashi recommended Kikuchi Momoko to Fujifilm for the assistance she gave to ZARD, and recommended Kikuchi Momoko to Fujifilm for this commercial.

As a result, the representative of Fujifilm first misunderstood that she had a relationship with Kikuchi Momoko, and asked her about herself on the day of the negotiation.

After being denied by Kikuchi Momoko, the representative of Fujifilm first felt embarrassed for this presumptuous little oolong, and then, half of it was thinking about selling Shin Iwahashi's favor, and half of it was about bringing back his self-esteem, thinking about introducing them to each other.

Hiroyuki Narita and Fujifilm's representatives seem to think that Shinichi Iwahashi is either a fan of Kikuchi Momoko or has a crush on Kikuchi Momoko.

But in fact, this is not only the first time he and Kikuchi Momoko have met. Before that, he had never paid attention to Momoko Kikuchi until he learned that she had recommended ZARD's song on J-WAVE's radio station.

Together with Kikuchi Momoko herself, when she recommended ZARD's single, she didn't expect to be recommended for work by ZARD's producer, and later she was invited by Fujifilm to play golf and meet Iwahashi producer.

Originally, the two of them did each other an unintentional little favor with a gesture, but as a result, the intermediary people coaxed each other, and it became a strange situation where Iwahashi Shinichi took the opportunity to chase stars while working, and Kikuchi Momoko played golf with fans who couldn't refuse.

It's like casually praising a girl for being good, and eventful relatives and friends arrange a blind date on both sides that no one has any intention of.

But in this case, if you directly deny that you are a fan of Kikuchi Momoko, it will be more subtle and embarrassing.

Iwahashi Shinichi was helpless, so he could only make a mistake first, and under the introduction of the middleman who didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, he greeted each other with Kikuchi Momoko, greeted politely, and greeted politely.

I know that the "good news" that can be tricked and delayed until the next day will not be really "good news".

"Hello. ”

After saying hello, Shinchi Iwahashi handed over his business card.

"Hello. ”

Momoko Kikuchi bowed to him and took it with both hands. As soon as she stretched out her arms, she showed her round wrists and looked like a big girl.

The commercial for the disposable camera was well received, and Momoko Kikuchi was well received as the heroine of the commercial.

For a small thing like this kind of civilian life, when shooting an advertisement, it is just right to use an artist suitable for all ages. The innocent girl next door, Momoko Kikuchi, appears just right in the advertisement.

After the advertisement was broadcast, many people made a special call to the TV station and Fujifilm, either to praise or thank her for using Kikuchi Momoko, which made her a big topic for a while.

The other day, a representative of Fujifilm contacted her office and asked her to go to Yokohama for golf this Sunday. A representative of Fujifilm patched the oolong from the last signing on the phone, saying that GenZo's Iwahashi-san would also go that day.

As an artist, there will occasionally be such a social gathering to participate. Anyway, there will be a manager from the firm who will accompany them and return together, which is part of the normal dealings in the industry.

Some female celebrities who are married to Dentsu MAN, or married to a cadre of a large company, may have met their husbands who are not in the entertainment industry for the first time, and it may be on such an occasion.

"That Iwahashi-san will also go when the time comes. ”

After the front foot received a call from the Fujifilm representative, the back foot agent relayed the matter to Kikuchi Momoko, and sent this information by the way.

"It is said that Iwahashi-san likes you very much and has said a lot of good things for you. Maybe you're still a fan. The agent guessed from the phone call of a Fujifilm representative.

That Iwahashi producer, is she a fan?

Kikuchi Momoko herself listened to it, and she was skeptical, always feeling that there was no such coincidence.

However, the agent said that he didn't really care what the truth of this matter was.

It doesn't matter if you're a fan of Momoko Kikuchi or not, it's practical to be able to take this opportunity to meet this producer who has become quite famous recently.

If you are familiar with each other, you may be able to cooperate in the future. As for whether you will work with Momoko Kikuchi or with other people in the office, it doesn't really matter.

When they met on this day, Momoko Kikuchi and Shinichi Iwahashi exchanged pleasantries, and her agent also took the opportunity to hand over his business card. On such occasions, capable agents often show their skills. Momoko Kikuchi's agent may not be capable, but he didn't miss the opportunity to seize it.

"Thank you for your kindness to ZARD. ”

The representative of Fujifilm invited her here, but I don't know what she said. Iwahashi thought about it and decided to take the initiative to explain his words to Kikuchi Momoko.

"Ahh ”

Momoko Kikuchi's eyes widened, looking at his face as if she were looking at him, and smiled, "I like ZARD very much. ”

Shinichi Iwahashi took the initiative to mention ZARD, and invisibly explained why there was an invitation to shoot an advertisement for Fujifilm in the future.

At first, when she learned that it was his recommendation, Momoko Kikuchi thought it was so. Now to make it clear, it makes her feel relaxed. Compared with the ethereal "Iwahashi producer likes you very much", it is the coming and going of reciprocating the peach that makes Kikuchi Momoko feel more at ease.

Then, she figured it out, knowing that it was Shinichi Iwahashi who deliberately made the words clear to dispel her uneasiness.

From this point of taking the matter to her own side to solve the siege, Kikuchi Momoko has a more three-dimensional impression of this producer who only occasionally appears in her mind once or twice in her imagination.

As soon as my heartstrings were relaxed, I finally took a serious look at this producer whom I had heard many times before and met for the first time.

Kikuchi Momoko's whole person looks soft and gentle, and her charming double eyelids grow on such a soft face, and when she opens her eyes wide, she reveals a little ignorance and innocence compared to seducting people's heartstrings, and she is lovely.

It is said that among the fans of Kikuchi Momoko and Shizuka Kudo, the content of undesirable mobs is the highest. With such a girl standing in front of him, Shin'ichi Iwahashi somewhat understood why this girl would be badly liked.

However, although she looks supple, she is not shy and introverted, and the whole person is generous.

"Thank you for your continued attention. She said.

"I don't have that much energy. Iwahashi Shinichi was quite frank and didn't take the opportunity to brag about himself, "I just thought Kikuchi-san was very suitable, and I just started chatting, so I mentioned it." ”

He smiled, "At the end of the day, Fujifilm thinks you're the right person." ”

"Your vision is accurate. ”

Kikuchi Momoko is in a hurry. Although he was telling the truth, he felt that he was boasting when he said it. However, instead of feeling shy about unintentional boasting, he showed a hearty smile.

Shinichi Iwahashi was infected by her and smiled, "As far as the response to this advertisement is concerned, it is true. ”

"And ZARD's Kamaike-san, too. Momoko Kikuchi blurted out.

Without thinking about saying this, there is quite a kind of beginning to praise Iwahashi for his accuracy, not boasting, but praising the female lead singer in the band ZARD he produced.

"I also listened to ZARD's new single and it felt good. Anyway, Kikuchi Momoko simply chatted with Shinichi Iwahashi, the ZARD producer.

"Did you already hear that?" Iwahashi was a little surprised.

ZARD's new single was released on the 31st of last month, and it has only been on sale for 10 days now, and the average fan may not buy the single.

"Because I'm a fan of the band. Momoko Kikuchi told him, "Last week, when everyone was looking for the weekly crown between DREAMS COME TRUE and the men's fighting group, I was looking for ZARD's ranking in the sales magazine. ”

"It's fifth. Iwahashi blurted out. About 58,000 copies were sold.

When the single was released, the band didn't reach the top 10 until the Yuejiu TV series was broadcast and was recommended by Momoko Kikuchi on the radio.

Momoko Kikuchi nodded, showing a smile, and at first glance she knew that it was a real fan and not a polite social rhetoric, "This is a pretty good beginning." ”

She is releasing singles now, and she may not be able to reach the top five in the first week, or if she already has a wide reputation.

Considering that ZARD has only released its second single, and it hasn't even opened up its popularity, it is already a good start to get this result immediately after its debut single.

Although last week, everyone's eyes were focused on the scenery of DREAMS COME TRUE, the triple crown rushed to the peak like a rainbow, pressing the Janis male idol on the ground and rubbing on the monthly drama.

When you compete for the first and second places, the other singers of the week have an infinite sense of existence.

Even the record company only makes appropriate arrangements for replenishment or transfer based on the feedback of the week's sales, and confirms the progress with the negotiated publicity channels, as orderly as a tram.

In itself, this single was the first single of the band's debut album, and it was not expected to sell hundreds of thousands of copies and become an instant hit. The purpose of releasing the first single is to test the waters and determine the acceptance of the public.

The band is different from idols, if they want to be truly recognized by the market and the public, they have to come up with an album that is popular and popular. The production level of the album is the standard to test whether the singer has talent.

Haven't released a single album yet, and the foundation is unstable, it's a good thing that there are no big-selling singles. The record company, on the other hand, treats the new album that ZARD will release later this month as a highlight, and this single is not so important.

LAST WEEK WAS DREAMS COME TRUE VS. MEN'S FIGHTING GROUP, AND THIS WEEK IT WAS PRINCESS PRINCESS AND DREAMS COME TRUE'S "YOU SING AND I will appear", and the public's attention was attracted to the top.

chose to release a single in April, the group of death, and I did this realization.

However, it seems that the wrong day has been chosen, but this is not to rush to be cannon fodder, but rather to make a fortune in a muffled voice.

Two bands with an absolute center on women were selling well, and while sending a message to the public that "the age of the band is here!" was accompanied by a message that "the quality of the women-centered band's music is high".

Volkswagen doesn't just care about first and second place, just as it's not just Toyota and Nissan.

That way, the band ZARD will be noticed more by people who walk into the record store. And when this attention fermented to the right stage, it was also when ZARD's new album was put on the shelves.

Thinking of this, Iwahashi Shinichi said to Kikuchi Momoko, "It's much more relieved to hear you say that." In the end, it was a dragonfly like water, and he didn't say anything about the album released by ZARD on the 19th of this month.

The topic didn't go any further, so stop here.

......

"It's not in vain, Shen Yijun. When he went to rest and eat at halftime, his brother-in-law Narita Kanyuki came over to him and quietly quipped.

"Forget it. ”

Iwahashi shook his head. His brother-in-law's words made it clear that he was making fun of him.

Kanyuki Narita found it interesting to joke about this, "I see that the two of you are talking quite speculatively. ...... Kikuchi-san is ladylike and generous. ”

Indeed, at a glance, you can tell that it is a well-off-priced family, a child who has grown up with great pampering.

However, Narita Kanyuki's praise of the Kikuchi Peach Lady reminded Shinichi Iwahashi of Akina Nakamori, who was accustomed to being a child in the shopping street.
