Tomorrow is a new day.

The next day, Shinchi Iwahashi set off from Tokyo to Osaka with four members of the band, along with staff from the studio and record label.

It's not the first time Iwahashi Shinichi has dealt with Kansai TV, and when he used to be an agent for Akiko Matsumoto, he went to Kansai TV from time to time to record programs.

The majority shareholder of Kansai TV is Fuji Media Holdings, so it has always had a close relationship with Fuji TV. Fuji Shimbun Network, which is led by Fuji Television, and Kansai Television are among them.

From time to time, the two TV stations jointly produce TV dramas or variety shows, and the people in the production department are also familiar with each other. The producer of Igarashi, introduced by Masaki Yoshida, is responsible for the production of two music groups on Kansai TV.

When you are a newcomer, you need to show your face to publicize. This is the sales strategy that Shinichi Iwahashi insisted on.

Of course, this tactic seems "non-mainstream" to the marketing band, but the conventions of propaganda are not a tradition worth defending.

Iwahashi Shinichi is a firm wine aroma and is afraid of deep supporters of the alley.

Osaka in the New Year is not a little more lively than Tokyo. Pedestrians spend the New Year's holiday as if they had nothing to do, and even the signboards in the shopping streets are almost unaffected by the self-regulation order, and the signboards for propaganda are generously displayed.

Iwahashi Shinichi secretly poked and thought that he had known that Osaka had such a good New Year's flavor, and he would come to Osaka for a New Year's vacation one day.

The staff in charge of receiving them and their group belong to an office that has business dealings with Watanabe Productions and also accepts support from Watanabe Productions.

In addition to nationwide auditions, major studios in Tokyo often have offices in major cities such as Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka to discover new talents, or they have established partnerships with local entertainment studios to bring local blood to Tokyo.

If you cast your net wide enough, you will be able to catch more fish.

Shinichi Iwahashi was concerned about Osaka's underground music scene, and on the way to the hotel, he asked a bunch of questions to the staff of the office.

The other party is also easy to talk to, and he will answer all questions.

The underground music scene in Kansai is quite prosperous, and there are many underground bands gathering around Osaka Castle Park to perform roadshows, and there is a saying that "there is a walker heaven in Kanto and Osaka Castle Park in Kansai".

In short, the people of Osaka will never show weakness and backwardness in the face of Tokyo.

Iwahashi Shinichi heard it and took it to heart. I thought I'd like to take a stroll around Osaka Castle Park during the day to see what the amateur bands are all about.

In the past few days in Osaka, the itinerary is arranged casually, and it is full.

......

When I arrived at the hotel, at noon, Watanabe Manyumi came here to meet me.

Just in time, just in time for lunch together.

I made an appointment with Igarashi producers to visit at two o'clock in the afternoon, and at that time, Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe went to meet him with the four members of the band.

After lunch and before departure, Shinichi Iwahashi chatted with Watanabe Manyumi first.

Only the two of them faced each other, Watanabe Manyumi thought for a moment, and suddenly stretched out his hand to Iwahashi Shinichi. Not only that, but he also jokingly said: "Put the wine aside first." ”

It's a celebration that only two people know about.

Iwahashi Shinkai looked at her outstretched hand, passed it over, and took Watanabe's hand. The two people who suddenly shook hands didn't know what they would think when they were seen by others.

The two exchanged glances with each other.

Watanabe Manyumi looked into his eyes, "Congratulations, Shinichichi-kun." ”

Shinichi Iwahashi responded to her joke just now, "When I get back to Tokyo, can I make up for the celebratory wine?"

"It's not that you can't drink in Osaka. ”

Watanabe Manyumi replied with a smile and took the lead in letting go of Iwahashi Shinichi's hand. After thinking about it, "However, it's not impossible for you to make up for it later." ...... That's until you bring out the new ideas you said yesterday. ”

"It's not an easy celebratory drink to drink. Iwahashi smiled and said, "Actually, I want to discuss with you and start a tour for DREAMS COME TRUE." ”

"Oh. ”

Watanabe Manyumi nodded, waiting for his next step.

"I want to do a special tour. SHINICHI IWAHASHI SAID TO HER, "BEFORE, WHEN YOU WERE DOING NAON, DIDN'T YOU HAVE A FIREWORKS FESTIVAL AT THE END?"

At that time, while watching the fireworks in the sky, Shinichi Iwahashi made a promise with Miwa-chan that he would do the band's own outdoor performance in the future, and not only that, but also set off fireworks at the end.

"So, I also wanted to give the band an outdoor tour with fireworks at the end of the show. Iwahashi Shinichi suggested an idea that sounded a bit expensive.

"Also, the band is messy on stage, and it looks like a circus when it's performing. ”

Yanyi bear, giraffe man, beauty and sauce, aesthetic and touching clothes and makeup, let's be regarded as a clown?

As he spoke, Watanabe imagined what it would be like for them to perform, and felt as if once they accepted this premise, every time the band stood on stage, it would be a wonderful circus performance.

She couldn't help but laugh.

Iwahashi saw that she was happy and took the opportunity to come up with a more expensive idea, "So, I wanted to make an outdoor tour concert setting like 'Circus Tour'." ”

Specifically, it was to create a gorgeous mobile stage, starting with the first leg of the tour, and moving the stage to the selected tour locations across the country as the band toured.

Watanabe Manyumi listened to his thoughts, unconsciously restrained her smile, and showed a serious thinking expression.

"The band's new album this time, the sales momentum is worth looking forward to, and the album of DREAMS COME TRUE is worth listening to, and this matter can be regarded as conveying the ...... by taking advantage of this promotion."

Of course, the propaganda is out, and then it has to be maintained.

Shinichi Iwahashi continued, "However, in my opinion, the two treasures of the band are the high-quality albums and the super charm of the live performances. Miwa-chan is a genius for live performances. ”

Therefore, this time, he wants to take advantage of the popularity and topicality accumulated by this album to do a big fanfare tour, attract the audience to the concert site, and feel the live charm of the band for himself.

“......”

Watanabe Manyumi listened to what he said, and quietly calculated in her heart how much expenditure she would have to spend if she really did such a tour.

When Shinichi Iwahashi mentioned that he was planning this kind of tour, Watanabe Manyumi's first reaction was that he didn't want to object. At least, listening to him talk about this tour plan, she also found it quite interesting in her heart.

However, such a tour is extremely costly. So much so that as soon as he had an idea, he first made people think that he was ready to lose money and make money.

Although it was worth it as long as the shouting earned was worth it, Watanabe didn't mind doing it. But......
