574 Are You Living Together?

In the next time, Cao Zhiqiang still closed the door and coded words safely, as if he had returned to the green years of the retreat codewords in his previous life.

As for the needs of daily life, such as grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning the house, and even sleeping and chatting, most of them are made by Akina Nakamori.

To be precise, during this time, Akina Nakamori has been taking care of Cao Zhiqiang in every detail, Cao Zhiqiang only needs to concentrate on coding words, and he doesn't have to worry about other mundane affairs at all.

This shows that Akina Nakamori is good, she does these jobs of taking care of people, she has no complaints, and she is even very satisfied.

Even sorting out the original manuscript of the book, Akira Mori in soybean oil did the work for him.

Basically, every time Cao Zhiqiang finishes writing a book, Akina Nakamori will sort it out and bind it into a book, and Cao Zhiqiang no longer has to worry about it himself.

Of course, in this process, Akina Nakamori will also follow the manuscript.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, this time I saw it, and I immediately became a fan of Cao Zhiqiang's little book.

Especially the book "Snow Country", Akina Nakamori can't put it down, and I can't get enough of it after reading it three times in a row.

Even "A Thousand Cranes", a book that Cao Zhiqiang himself doesn't like, Akina Nakamori also reads it with relish.

The only bad thing is that after reading these manuscripts, Akina Nakamori is always easy to get emotional, and she can't help but want to, so Cao Zhiqiang has to waste a lot of time and energy to settle Nakamori Akina's initiative.

But all in all, with Akina Nakamori by his side, Cao Zhiqiang feels that this kind of life at home to write books is not bad.

No wonder the ancients paid attention to red sleeves and fragrance.

Indeed, when you write a book, you have a gentle and lovely Miko to accompany you, take care of your housework, organize your manuscripts for you, and solve your physical needs, it's really a fairy day.

In fact, Cao Zhiqiang also knew that Akina Nakamori had also paid a lot of money in order to accompany him.

This is not only the cost of doing housework, but also the cost of career.

Because since she knew that Cao Zhiqiang was engaged in creation and writing Japanese, Akina Nakamori simply took a long leave and concentrated on being a nanny and assistant for Cao Zhiqiang at home.

If it weren't for this, Cao Zhiqiang would definitely not be able to live such a comfortable life.

But in this way, it is tantamount to making Akina Nakamori give up her career.

You must know that Akina Nakamori's current positioning is just an idol artist who has just debuted, similar to Kyoko Koizumi.

The most important thing for this kind of idol artist is popularity, and if you want to maintain your popularity, you have to work every day, release a new song from time to time, take a photo, or make some commercial activities and the like.

To put it simply, the key to idol singers is idols, popularity is the most critical, and the way to maintain popularity is to show more faces and maintain a certain degree of exposure.

Just like Kyoko Koizumi, even if she doesn't sing new songs, she has to receive various advertisements, take various photos, publish posters, or attend various commercial performances, etc., in order to increase exposure and maintain her popularity.

Akina Nakamori is supposed to do the same, but if she gives up on her own, the economic company will not force her to do it.

The reason is that in Japan in the 80s, the protection of artists was very strong, and generally speaking, the agency would not squeeze the artist too much, unless the artist agreed.

Unlike some brokerage companies in South Korea later, even if the artist disagrees, you have to accompany the customer if you are asked to accompany the customer.

Maybe Japan also has this kind of black-hearted agency, but at least Yanyin, where Akina Nakamori is currently located, is not this kind of black-hearted company, so it will not force artists to do anything.

But if the artist himself is rotten and does not cooperate, although the agency will not force you, it will slowly reduce your job notice, and even refrigerate you, until you lose your use value, and then give up on you completely.

After all, the agency signs an artist to make money, if the artist doesn't know how to be motivated and doesn't work well, he will naturally not get used to it, unless you have a big background.

But obviously, at least Akina Nakamori at this stage, has no background.

There is only one reason why Yanyin is so good to Akina Nakamori, and that is that Akina Nakamori still has use value.

After all, Akina Nakamori is still very young, and the songs sung by Akina Nakamori before were also very popular, and she was once in the top ten of the public trust chart, so she has a certain fan base.

At least for now, Yanyin can't come up with a young female singer with stronger fan appeal than Akina Nakamori.

Therefore, before Yanyin finds someone who can replace Akina Nakamori, he will open up to Akina Nakamori.

Even Cao Zhiqiang is happy to see it happen, and hopes that Akina Nakamori will terminate the contract with Yanyin as soon as possible, so that he can reopen a brokerage company, and then sign a contract with Akina Nakamori, and then vigorously praise her, but this kind of thing can't be said in advance.

Therefore, Akina Nakamori didn't know Cao Zhiqiang's true plan at all.

In this case, Akina Nakamori took a long vacation for Cao Zhiqiang, when her career was thriving, and she needed to work hard, which was really dedicated to Cao Zhiqiang, and she really gave up her career because of love, otherwise there would be no other explanation.

If you don't say that Akina Nakamori is a love brain, such a simple child, it's just a good person to meet, if you meet a scumbag, it's a lie.

But this Nakamori Akina, according to Cao Zhiqiang's cognition in his previous life, is a person who has made many mistakes.

Akina Nakamori in her previous life, she was obviously injured by the scumbag at the beginning, but later she met the scumbag again, and continued to follow the scumbag without regrets for 17 years, and in the end she was kicked away and had nothing.

At that time, Akina Nakamori was already old, but in order to make a living, she still had to make a comeback.

In short, Akina Nakamori in the previous life was really pitiful, lamentable and hateful, why did she keep teaching and not change, always lacking a string in her brain, always following the scumbag without regrets, and paying so much for the scumbag.

Although Cao Zhiqiang doesn't think he is a good person, he can at least promise not to abandon Akina Nakamori, unless Akina Nakamori chooses to leave him by herself.

In addition, Cao Zhiqiang will not let Akira Nakamori pay for the menu, and he will definitely try his best to make Akina Nakamori become a smash hit female singer and a female diva.

Even if Akina Nakamori doesn't like to attend various events, it doesn't matter.

We can play the power faction.

As long as Akina Nakamori can sing a large number of enduring classic songs in the future and establish her name as the "ancestor singer", then even if she doesn't like to hold concerts and doesn't like to show her head all day long, she can be packaged as a maverick singer, and maybe she will be more popular.

In the final analysis, the life cycle of idol stars is very short, but powerful singers are different.

is like Misora Skylark, she basically doesn't attend various events now, but she releases a few records every year, and the exposure is not high, but when the Japanese people talk about her, there is no one who doesn't think she is one of the greatest singers.

And Miyuki Nakajima.

If Miyuki Nakajima is famous at this time, she is actually inferior to the new generation of Koizumi Kyoko, Akina Nakamori and Seiko Matsuda.

But Miyuki Nakajima has long been a proper and powerful singer in the minds of the Japanese people, and compared with idol singers such as Kyoko Koizumi, Akina Nakamori and Seiko Matsuda, they are actually no longer on the same track.

Of course, Miyuki Nakajima is a typical singer-songwriter, she is very particular about innovation and change, so if there are no accidents, she is about to enter a new stage of her singing career, which is commonly known as the "Crazy Period".

Although the so-called "Crazy Period" turned out to be an unsuccessful attempt, Miyuki Nakajima at least has this confidence and is not afraid of failure, after all, the label of a powerful singer has long been branded.

On the contrary, it is Kyoko Koizumi who is still far from the label of a powerful singer.

Akina Nakamori, Kyoko Koizumi and Seiko Matsuda, the three people who really succeeded in transforming and were promoted to powerful singers seem to be only Akina Nakamori.

This also shows that Akina Nakamori has that strength, at least her unique voice is really God's appreciation.

It's just that Akina Nakamori hasn't really found her position yet, and she is still in a period of confusion, and she doesn't know what her most suitable style is.

Therefore, Akina Nakamori also had a period of changeable style, which is actually the same as Miyuki Nakajima, which is an attempt to break through herself and position herself.

If you succeed in your attempt, you will go to the next level and become a powerful singer, and if you fail to try, you can only stand out from the crowd.

Cao Zhiqiang knew about Akina Nakamori's later development, so he could plan the role positioning for Akina Nakamori in advance and tailor some hit songs for her.

To put it bluntly, a singer is not awesome, the quality of the voice is only one of them, and the most important thing is whether there is a good song.

In other words, whether there are good works or not is the main criterion for judging the quality of a singer.

In the same way, it is the same for actors, whether you have good works or not is the most important indicator to measure whether you are a good actor.

And good works, with him Cao Zhiqiang, how can Akina Nakamori lack good works in the future?

On this day, after Cao Zhiqiang had just finished copying another Japanese, he stretched his waist and walked out of his study.

As soon as I walked out of the door, I saw Akina Nakamori wearing home clothes, sitting quietly at the dining table and pruning the branches of various flowers.

Well, in fact, this is the so-called Japanese ikebana, which is also known as flower arrangement.

Among Japanese housewives, ikebana, or ikebana, has endured for a long time, after all, it is a great way to pass the time and a channel for socializing.

Many Japanese girls learn ikebana while they are in school, and Akina Nakamori has apparently learned this as well.

It's just that Akina Nakamori has been very busy with work before, and after returning home, she was very late and tired, and she didn't have the heart at all, and she wasn't in the mood to play ikebana.

On the contrary, after Akina Nakamori took a long vacation to take care of Cao Zhiqiang, she began to play ikebana again.

How to say it, in the past, Cao Zhiqiang thought that Japanese ikebana was idle and sick, but after actually experiencing the art of ikebana, he felt that it was not bad.

At least the flowers that have been planted by Akina Nakamori's hands are really beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

"Hehe, you're arranging flowers again?" Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile.

"Yikes!" Akina Nakamori reacted at this time, hurriedly put down the flower scissors and flower branches, stood up lightly and smiled, "Zhiqiang-san, are you tired of writing?" Is the shoulder sore? Do you want me to give you a massage? ”

"Haha, no, no." Cao Zhiqiang moved his arm, "As soon as I finished writing one, I came out to do the activities, and I happened to see that you were arranging flowers, so I asked by the way." ”

"Ah, you've finished writing another one?" Akina Nakamori said with a little surprise, "What is it?" ”

"The title of the book is 'The Girl's Harbor.'" Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "A girl with a lala style." ”

"Lalafeng?" Akina Nakamori was stunned, "What does that mean?" ”

"It doesn't matter." Cao Zhiqiang waved his hand, "In short, it is to describe a certain kind of affection between a girl and a girl." ”

"Huh?" As soon as she heard this, Akina Nakamori's eyes lit up and she became more interested, "Then I want to read it more." Can I watch that? ”

"Hehe, you can watch it if you want to." Cao Zhiqiang waved his hand, "I wrote it out and published it for others to see, if you want to see it, then look at it." ”

Akina Nakamori smiled: "In this case, then I'll prepare something for you to drink first, and then I'll go and sort out the manuscript for you." By the way, what do you want to drink? Coffee or tea? ”

"Coffee bar." Cao Zhiqiang said.

"Or Oiran coffee with nothing?" Akina Nakamori asked, "Refrigerated coffee, or freshly ground coffee?" ”

"Well, freshly ground coffee." Cao Zhiqiang said, "At this time, it is better to drink some hot food for the stomach." ”

Akina Nakamori smiled: "Okay, then you wait a minute, I'll go and prepare it for you." ”

"Okay, you're busy." Cao Zhiqiang said, "I'll go to the toilet." ”

After speaking, Cao Zhiqiang went directly to the toilet.

Just when Cao Zhiqiang went to the toilet, and Akina Nakamori was happily preparing to grind coffee, there was a sudden doorbell.

"Wait a minute!" Akina Nakamori hurriedly put down the coffee beans and said, "This is coming." ”

When Akina Nakamori went over to open the door, she found a strange young man with a briefcase and a suit outside the door.

"Who are you looking for?" Akina Nakamori asked with a frown.

The strange young man was also stunned, then looked at Akina Nakamori and said suddenly, "You, you...... Ah, Mingcai-chan? Are you Akina Nakamori? ”

"Hey!" Akina Nakamori nodded, "May I ask who you are?" ”

"Oops, I'm your fan!" The young man immediately smiled and said, "I like your songs, especially the song "セカンドラブ" (Second Love), oops, it's really good!" ”

Hearing what the other party said, Akina Nakamori smiled and bowed gently, and then said with a smile: "This, thank you very much for your love, but I'm in private time now, not working time, so, I'm sorry, if you want to chase stars, I have to refuse you, I can't let you in, I'm really sorry." ”

After speaking, Akina Nakamori bowed again, and the door was about to be closed.

"Ah, wait!" The young man hurriedly waved his hands one by one, "No, I'm not here to chase stars, nor are I here to find you, I'm here to find Cao Zhiqiang, Cao Sang." ”

Immediately afterwards, the young man frowned, and looked at the house number again: "No, this is the address that Cao Sang gave me, yes, how can it be Mingcai-chan You are here?" Am I mistaken? ”

Speaking of this, the young man in the suit also scratched his head, his face full of doubts.

As soon as she heard the other party say this, Akina Nakamori was stunned for a moment, no longer closing the door, but asked carefully: "Are you looking for Cao Zhiqiang, Cao Sang?" ”

"That's right." The young man with the briefcase nodded.

"Who are you?" Akina Nakamori asked again.

As soon as he heard this, the man in the suit hurriedly said, "Ah, my name is Yuno Watanabe, and I am the editor of Kodansha, and this is my business card!" ”

After speaking, the man in the suit hurriedly took out a box of business cards from his arms, hurriedly took out one, and then put the business card box back in his arms, and then held the business cards with both hands and handed them over respectfully.

Akina Nakamori took the business card and looked at it, and found that it was really the editor of Kodansha, so she asked, "Mr. Watanabe, why did you come here to find Cao Zhiqiang-san?" ”

Watanabe Yuno, who was wearing a suit, said: "That's the case, Cao Zhiqiangsang personally came to our publishing house before, submitted a manuscript to me, and wanted to publish a book with us."

After review by me and our editor, it has been decided to officially publish the book.

Now I came here to talk to Cao Zhiqiangsang about specific publishing matters and formally sign a publishing contract with him. ”

After a slight pause, Watanabe Yuno Fox said suspiciously: "This, Ming Cai-san, listening to you, you seem to know Cao Zhiqiang-san?"

Could it be that Cao Sang really lives here?

Huh? Could it be that Ming Cai-chan and Cao Sang, you live together? ”

Akina Nakamori bit her lip, then looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one else, she nodded lightly and whispered: "Yes, that's right, we, we do live together." ”

"Ahh Yuno Watanabe's face was full of surprise, "You, you, you actually live together?" ”

"Shh Akina Nakamori hurriedly raised her right index finger and made a silent gesture, "Mr. Watanabe, we haven't made this matter public, and we ask you to keep it a secret for us." ”

Watanabe Yuno was stunned, then sighed and said, "Okay, I'm not a bad person, and I originally came to see Cao Zhiqiangsang, so don't worry, I'll keep it a secret." ”

Immediately afterwards, Yuno Watanabe asked again: "So, Cao Zhiqiang, is he really here?" ”

Akina Nakamori nodded: "Yes, he's here." ”

Yuno Watanabe took a deep breath: "Then, can I visit Cao Zhiqiangsang now?" It's really a very important contract, please! ”

Speaking of which, Yuno Watanabe bowed to Akina Nakamori.

Akina Nakamori smiled slightly: "That's right, Mr. Watanabe, since you're looking for Cao San, then please come in." ”

After saying that, Akina Nakamori completely opened the door and let Yuno Watanabe enter.

"Excuse me!" Yuno Watanabe bowed to Akina Nakamori again, and then walked into the door in a proper manner.

After entering the door to change his shoes and walking into the living room wearing socks, Yuno Watanabe did not see Cao Zhiqiang.

Akina Nakamori asked him to sit down at the table first, and then said, "I'm sorry, Cao Sang just went to the bathroom, please wait a while, well, I'm making hand-ground coffee, do you want a cup?" ”

"yes, thank you so much." Yuno Watanabe smiled and said, "No wonder I smelled the strong smell of coffee as soon as I came in, it turned out that Akina-san was making coffee." Oops, Ming Cai-chan is really a good woman, Cao Zhiqiangsang is really blessed! ”

Akina Nakamori smiled: "You complimented, that, you wait a minute, I'll prepare coffee for you." ”

Just when Akina Nakamori entered the kitchen to continue making hand-ground coffee, the door of the bathroom suddenly opened, and then I saw Cao Zhiqiang, who was only wearing big pants and a small vest, wearing slippers, yawning, and lazily coming out of it.
