307. in the first place
(Two chapters in one)
The show is over, and the things in front of the stage end here, and the things behind the scenes are not over.
THE UNSUCCESSFUL BANDS SHOULD DO WHATEVER THEY WANT, BUT THERE IS STILL SOMETHING TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE DEFEATED PREVIOUS WINNER, BANILA, AND THE NEW WINNER, DREAMS COME TRUE.
BANILA IS TO CONFIRM THE PRODUCTION OF THE NEXT SINGLE, AND DREAMS COME TRUE IS TO CONFIRM THE NEXT INSTALLMENT.
As long as you can win one issue, then it will be different from ordinary underground bands.
In the break room, Shinichi Iwahashi is still wearing a giraffe hood.
More than half of the staff in charge of reception were out of curiosity, and said, "I've already gotten off the stage, so it's okay to take off the hood." It's not comfortable to wear like that, is it?"
In this regard, Iwahashi Shinichi has his own set of words, "This is the role I play. ”
"I see!"
The staff didn't have any psychological barriers to accepting it, "Just like the Disneyland actors, right?" and admired him, "It's really dedicated." ”
"......" is quite fast to find a reason.
However, in part, it is also because in the eyes of the staff, the keyboardist wearing the giraffe hood is not the key figure of the band, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it.
Looking at it this way, Miwa Yoshida is undoubtedly the absolute core on the surface, but if you take the bands of the female lead singers who are now popular as a reference, the male musicians around the female lead singers are the ones who decide the overall situation.
Since the giraffe man is classified on the side of the mascot, then Masato Nakamura has become the mastermind behind the scenes in the eyes of the staff.
For this misunderstanding, none of the three people cares about it, or rather, it is not a bad thing to be thought like this.
Masato Nakamura is the spokesperson for this bright face, and Shinichi Iwahashi continues to hide as his captain and mastermind behind the scenes.
Having said that, in the past, it was an era when the black-clothed people behind the scenes abided by the rules of the black-clothed clothes and never allowed themselves to come to the stage, but now, it is an era when the black-clothed people in the past can also stand in front of the stage.
It's the best of times, if you think about it.
......
The whole confirmation process took a short time, and it was delayed for about ten minutes.
Leaving TV Asahi, Masato Nakamura went to open his Suzuki lunch box. I used to laugh at myself all day with this little lunch box, saying that I would be kicked out if I drove into Roppongi, but this time I actually drove it to the TV station.
In such a prosperous era, TV stations have sufficient funds, and the lives of practitioners are also nourishing. In the entire parking lot, this small lunch box is undoubtedly the most broken car.
The pig's feet that looked mediocre and drove a broken car to a grand banquet were sneered at and slapped in the face with their strength, and many beauties cried and shouted that they would give up the luxury car and not sit on this broken car...... Inexistent.
The small lunch box can only fit the three of them. Of course, there is no room for others.
Miwa-chan pulled Shinichi Iwahashi, and the two of them sat in the back row together. After getting into the car, Shinichi Iwahashi took off his hood and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's finally liberated." ”
Even if there is a cooling patch in the hood, it is still unbearable to be stuffy in it for so long.
If you often wear something like this, you have to find a way to improve this hood.
"Good work, Shen Yijun. ”
Miwa-chan held out her hand at him, and Shinichi Iwahashi expressed vigilance.
"Take it easy. ”
Miwa-chan was amused by his reaction, and her fingers poked the router of the giraffe hood in his hand, and took the hood and held it in her arms, "Take a break." ”
Iwahashi Shinichi was empty-handed, stretching a lazy waist that he couldn't let go. No way, the small lunch box has limited space.
"Today's show was perfect. "When I think about the performance I just performed, I feel very excited, even though it wasn't the first time we had performed, but tonight was the best." ”
Tonight's performance brought about a fuller appreciation of Miwa-chan's talent and the tacit understanding between the three of them who came to the event as DREAMS COME TRUE.
Shinichi Iwahashi was complacent, "I think the best day we perform." ”
This boastful skill, with the thick skin of his ability, can say anything.
"Let's move forward with this momentum and move towards the throne of KING. ”
"It's going to be a little quicker to prepare a new song. Masato Nakamura answered, "I have to go on stage immediately next week, and everything has to be prepared within this week." ”
As he was talking to Masato Nakamura, Miwa-chan suddenly laughed.
Shinichi Iwahashi went to look at her, "What's wrong?"
Miwa-chan touched the deer again and again with her chin, "It's nothing." Looking at Shinichi Iwahashi's face, he smiled and said, "I'm hungry." ”
"Can you be so happy when you're hungry?" Iwahashi Shinichi was helpless.
Miwa-chan didn't pay attention to it at all, and replied, "To be exact, I happened to be hungry when I was happy." ”
When she said this, what she thought in her heart was that after the performance just now, when the censor with the same surname as her said, "It's all to blame on Iwahashi-kun", it was because I thought of the scene at that time, so I couldn't help laughing.
Even so, when she was on stage, she didn't find it funny.
At that time, her heart echoed with gratitude to Shinichi Iwahashi for being willing to wear the giraffe hood she gave him, and even so, standing on the stage with her to realize her original dream.
Now, the first step of the dream has come out in a down-to-earth and beautiful way.
"At this time, I can only find a restaurant that is open 24 hours a day. ”
Masato Nakamura in the driver's seat thought about it, steered the car, and moved forward on the road late at night.
While sitting in the restaurant with a warm chazuke soothing her hungry stomach, Miwa Yoshida felt the happiness of being "DREAMS COME TRUE".
......
Although the next day was Sunday, Sachiko Kamaike woke up earlier than her usual weekday.
Walking down the stairs and looking in the mirror while washing her face, she stared around her eyes and looked closely, a little worried that sleep deprivation would manifest itself on her face.
She used a towel to suck up the drops of water from her face and walked out of the bathroom. Glancing at the kitchen, there was a mother busy preparing breakfast. From the day she married her father, this incident constituted her mother's "routine".
Sachiko Kamaike looked at her mother's figure in the morning light and felt a reassuring tranquility.
Sensing that someone was behind her, her mother turned her head, "Sachiko? ”
Sachiko Kamaike said "um", "I just woke up and got up." He said to her, "I'll do you a favor." ”
"Soon it will be available. "The mother sent her daughter out of the kitchen," Sachiko took care of bringing in the newspaper, and the father got up to read it. ”
Sachiko Kamaike walked through the foyer to bring in today's newspaper.
Out of curiosity, when she went inside, she flipped to the entertainment version and searched for it. On a small page, it reads, "The new winner of this issue of the band Kingdom of Heaven appears."
Just looking at this formulaic lead lettering, people can't associate it with last night's wonderful performance.
After putting the newspaper on the dining table where her father sat every day, Sachiko Kabuike went into the kitchen again to do something for her mother.
At this time, the mother finally sensed that something was wrong with her daughter.
The desire to do something is a manifestation of the uneasiness that comes from what is in the heart. The mother sensed her daughter's uneasiness, but Mi pointed it out directly, but complied with her wishes, "You can help arrange the dishes." ”
"Mother's ......"
Sachiko Kamaike and her mother stand side by side in front of the table.
"What's wrong?"
Sachiko Kamaike wanted to speak and stopped, "It's nothing. I'm going to Tokyo today, okay?"
Hearing her say this, her mother smiled slightly, "Decide your own plan, and then go and realize the plan." Do what you want to do, and there is no 'do' or 'no'. ”
“......”
The mother's words hide encouragement for her daughter. From childhood to adulthood, at all times, her mother was on her side, and even if she didn't understand what she did, she wouldn't rudely obstruct it.
Sachiko Kamaike wiped the water off the plate and finally made up her mind.
At the age of twenty-one, when people of the same age have begun to go on blind dates and prepare for a new stage of life, give up the same path that they have been walking and go to another unknown path.
It is necessary to have the momentum to rush forward before there is a day when "dreams come true".
......
On Monday, the ratings came out, and the episode they participated in had a rating of 22.7, which was still at the level of prime time. But it is worth mentioning that the performance of DREAMS COME TRUE won the highest rating point of this episode, reaching 25.5.
The three of them gathered in the studio to work all day, and Shin Iwahashi fell asleep when he got home, and woke up at almost ten o'clock.
Seeing that there was a pager calling him, he went back and knew the ratings, and he suddenly felt a lot more energetic.
The phone to report the ratings hung up immediately, and there was another pager, and it was Watanabe Manyumi.
At this time, the regular meeting of Watanabe's Manyumi office was over. After talking on the phone, I asked him, "Shouldn't you just get up now?"
"You said yes. Iwahashi said with a smile.
On the other side of the phone, Watanabe Manyumi heard him say this and reminded: "Don't forget the TV meeting at one o'clock in the afternoon." ”
"Don't worry, you can't forget anything about this. Iwahashi said.
When he made a ticket, Watanabe Manyumi smiled and invited, "How about eating together at noon?"
Watanabe Manyumi guessed that the show had just ended and won the competition, and the three members of the band were either busy celebrating or preparing for the next new competition, so they did not contact Shinichi Iwahashi on Sunday.
"Okay. Iwahashi replied, not surprised.
In the past, two people sat together on the representative table, but now, Haruko Akamatsu replaces Shinichi Iwahashi, and after the show ends, there is no way to exchange opinions immediately, so they can only move to another time.
After making an appointment with Watanabe Manyumi for a time and place, Shinichi Iwahashi gave himself a pinch and changed into a suit.
......
HAVE A LIGHT MEAL RIGHT AT THE RESTAURANT NEAR U-MIZ.
This area is all office buildings, and at noon, all the people who come to eat are office workers, sitting here in professional clothes, which seems so ordinary, or as it should be.
Iwahashi Shinichi was dressed formally, but when they met, seeing his face and this formal dress, Watanabe Manyumi remembered the way he saw him wearing a giraffe hood not long ago, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Why are you staring at my face and smiling all the time?" Iwahashi Shinichi was a little depressed.
Watanabe Manyumi said "I'm sorry" insincerely, and explained with a smile, "I just think it's a little strange that the giraffe man before is sitting in front of me like now." ”
"You think it's funny, right?"
"No," she shook her head slightly, her eyes smiling, "there was a feeling that a fairy tale had become a reality." ”
"Haha!"
Shinichi Iwahashi laughed at her serious nonsense, "Did you say that on purpose?"
Watanabe Manyumi neither answered yes nor no, and smiled contentedly.
The ordered things were served, and Shinichi Iwahashi, who had breakfast and lunch together, ate with relish, and Watanabe Manyumi waited until he had filled his stomach a little before he started chatting with him and communicating about the previous show.
"I'm going to be working on BANILA's single soon, I'm going to prepare for the next competition, and I'm going to make a single ...... Chisato Moritaka," Iwahashi Shinichi said of his schedule, feeling that forty-eight hours a day was not enough.
After drinking the coffee, Watanabe Manyumi took out her share of the meal and handed it to Shinichi Iwahashi.
After that, the two went to the TV station together.
Yesterday I was in Yoyogi's recording studio discussing the next performance with my two friends, and today I sat in the conference room of TV Asahi to discuss and arrange the next program, which is quite interesting.
......
It's Saturday again.
is also the backstage of TV Asahi, and it is also the same lounge, but this time, the people in the same room have been reshuffled.
And this time, the situation has completely dropped, and DREAMS COME TRUE is no longer the ordinary people who were not cared about last time, and the new bands have peeked at them from time to time.
The female lead singer who killed all sides on the stage, looking at it this way, is a very ordinary girl. The bass player has a face that looks more like a comedian than a musician, and only the keyboardist stands out.
However, that's not because he's special, it's the giraffe hood that's eye-catching.
If you say so, it's a mediocre trio......
But it's this kind of mediocrity that makes people feel even more that they can't be underestimated. But whoever can win the game with a mediocre appearance is not to be underestimated.
Bands that receive invitations to competitions, for whatever reason, most likely want to watch the show first. Most of the band here tonight have watched the performance of the last episode of DREAMS COME TRUE, and they are deeply impressed by the Wang Fang they released in the last issue.
Because of this, I have everything in my mind about the next three people who will challenge such a person.
However, the three of them have a kind of meaning of being born and cooked twice, although the defense and the challenge, although they are all competitions, but the feeling is still different.
Tonight, they are the targets on the table, the enemies of all.
It's quite exciting to think about it.
