Chapter 151: Lying without changing your face
"It turns out that Ye Zhaosang still remembers Miss Kawamoto. X" Yuki Uemura teased him.
Ye Zhao's neck stiffened, and he replied categorically, "Of course." She was the first singer I discovered. β
"yes. On the day I shot Miss Kawamoto's live, I was still a member of the shooting team I went to send. Yuki Uemura recalled, "The little guy surnamed Uchida, when I asked him where his house was, he actually blushed. Or did his companion answer for him. It's the first time I've seen someone so shy. β
Ye Zhao thought of the young man who told him seriously that he couldn't knead rice balls, and said with a smile: "That little brother is indeed very interesting. I don't know if he will enter the film industry in the future. β
"Probably not, based on my instincts. β
"This kind of thing doesn't need to be judged by intuition......" Ye Zhao couldn't help but laugh. But having said that, he couldn't help but agree with Yuki Uemura's intuition in his heart.
β¦β¦
I haven't seen her for a while, Kazuyo Kawamoto's hair has grown a little longer, and she used to feel a little restrained when she looked at Ye Zhao and the recording engineer in the control room through the glass window of the recording studio, but now, she looks quite confident and casual.
"Ye Zhaosang, how does today's recording sound?" After coming out of the recording room, Kazuyo Kawamoto took the initiative to ask.
Ye Zhao nodded and put down his headphones, "It's pretty good, the progress can be described as fast." I checked with Director Okazaki that your debut single is scheduled to be released on October 2nd, so it's time to get started. β
"October 2nd......" Kazuyo Kawamoto calculated in his mind, "there are almost two months left, and there is still plenty of time." β
"That said, but please don't be too lazy. Ye Zhao reminded.
"Of course!" Kazuyo Kawamoto quickly replied, "By the way, I went to the shrine with Mi-chan to watch the fireworks display, and I heard her say that her debut single is scheduled for November." β
"In that case, aren't you her senior?"
Kazuyo Kawamoto laughed, "When Ye Zhaosang said this, he suddenly felt that he was a lot more majestic. But October is no different from November, right?"
β¦β¦
Kazuyo Kawamoto re-entered the recording studio with a cup of soaked honey water, and when she was waiting for her to adjust her state, Ye Zhaohe greeted the recording engineer in her prison studio: "Ueshima-san, it's been hard for a while. β
"Anywhere, it's all job. Ueshima lowered his head and checked the console's push knob. He was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a beard and a somewhat scruffy look.
At this time, Kawamoto and Dai made a gesture through the glass that could start, Ye Zhao nodded, exchanged glances with Uejima, and put on the monitoring headphones.
After listening to Kazuyo Kawamoto sing a few more times, Ye Zhao put down the headphones and didn't need to talk to her, just waved goodbye to her through the glass, and walked out of the recording studio.
When I walked to the end of the corridor, two girls of similar size were talking and laughing at each other. Seeing Ye Zhaohe and Uemura Yuki following, the two girls subconsciously glanced at them, and then, one of the girls stopped, raised her finger and pointed at Ye Zhao a little rudely, but what came out of her mouth was not "Ye Zhaosang!", but "...... Panda San!"
"Oh you remember it so clearly. Ye Zhao shook his eyebrows.
β¦β¦
Daguan Yami didn't seem to realize that her actions just now were a bit rude, and continued to follow Ye Zhao's words: "Of course. It's the first time I've met someone who asks someone if they like pandas. And this person is still so famous Ye Zhaosang. β
"By the way, my name is Ami Okuni, this one," she grabbed the arm of the girl next to her and pushed her forward a little, "This is my friend, Yumi-chan Yoshimura, who is working as a waon here." β
"Ye Zhaosang, and that gentleman, two good. Although from the outside, Yumi Yoshimura looks a little more uninhibited, and she feels like a little sister who is not polite, but in fact, perhaps because she has entered society early, she is much more than Ami Okuni, the so-called "child in a honey pot".
"Hello. Ye Zhao saluted her back. "Then again, the two of you look really laid-back. β
"Because we're really fine. Ami Okuni said in a naΓ―ve tone, "Right, Yumi-chan?"
Yumi Yoshimura nodded, "I don't really want to admit it, but it's true." β
"If both of you are doing harmony here, the singing must be good, right?" Ye Zhao invited as if on a whim: "If you don't mind, can you let me listen to the audition of the two of you?"
"Audition? Why?" asked Yumi Yoshimura with some direct questions.
"Well, aren't I working with Sony to create a new artist right now, and now her new single is being recorded in full swing, and I want to choose someone to be the backup singer for her. Ye Zhao lied without changing his face.
"I see. Then there's nothing to say, we are originally harmony personnel, even if Ye Zhaosang calls us over directly, it doesn't matter. β
β¦β¦
The recording studio where Kawamoto and Dai were there was inconvenient to use anymore, Ye Zhao quickly found the manager here and borrowed an idle recording studio again, and he didn't need a recording engineer, so he went directly to the studio by himself.
"Ye Zhaosang, what do you want to sing?" the two girls asked.
Ye Zhao thought for a while, "Do you two know about Mulberry?"
"When San was at his most popular, I was in middle school, and the girls in the school were vying to imitate the dance of 'Lonely Tropical Fish'. Yumichi Yoshimura.
Ami Okuni also nodded, "That's right, at that time, I was imitating the expressionless face of Ink-san all day long, but because my laughter was too low, it only lasted about ten seconds each time. β
Ink is a girl idol group that debuted in 1988 and once set a record of occupying three of the top 10 spots in the Oricon singles annual chart, and was popular all over the country in the late 80s and early 90s. The group's features are the expressionless faces of the two members, Shoko Aida and Hayoko Suzuki, and their mechanical, doll-like dance moves on a music box.
It's just that the life of the girl group is already short, and after entering the 90s, the band has risen, and the living space of idols has been repeatedly compressed, under the wrong judgment of the record company, ink has carried out a series of transformations, losing its iconic expressions and dances, from an idol group full of personality, to an ordinary duo singing, and sales have also begun to plummet, in May this year, the new single they released only sold 6,000 copies,
