Chapter 39: Be Yourself
The "Everythinghouse", which has not yet been officially settled, has first engaged in a formal battle.
Hanyu Hideki and his girlfriend were nervous, and then went shopping, shopping, and watching the performance trilogy, which was considered to be a complete day of dating.
The next day, early in the morning, Hanyu Hideki climbed out of his girlfriend's soft arms with difficulty.
It's not that he doesn't want to stay warm for a while, but he has to get up for something important.
Last night, Shota Yoshioka called him to inform him that Seiko Matsuda had already coordinated the time and officially started shooting the advertisement today.
The first thing to do is to record the advertising song.
He, a songwriter, is of course going to work as a songmaker.
Minato-ku, Sony Music's recording studio.
After more than three months, Hideki Hanyu met Seiko Matsuda, the most popular female idol in today's neon entertainment industry.
"Hanyu-sensei, I'm very happy to work together, and I would like to ask for a lot of care in the future."
When Seiko Matsuda greeted him, he still had that sweet standard smile.
"I'm also very excited to work with Matsuda-san." Hideki Hanyu replied politely.
The two seem to have collectively forgotten the chance encounter in the Elementary School Hall.
"Matsuda-san, time is tight, let's start recording as soon as possible."
"Okay."
Without too much politeness, the two quickly got into work.
Hanyu Hideki thought that with the strength of Seiko Matsuda, the recording should be easy, but the next development was not what he thought.
Hideki Hanyu: "Matsuda-san, I don't want a sweet feeling. ”
Seiko Matsuda: "I'm so sorry, please let me try again." ”
Hideki Hanyu: "Please forget for a moment how you used to feel when you sang, and think of yourself as an ordinary girl. ”
Seiko Matsuda: "I'm so sorry, but please give me another chance. ”
……
After a few times, Seiko Matsuda still couldn't find a feeling.
This female idol has a clear voice that God appreciates food and eats, and it is no accident that she can become famous, but she is obviously inexperienced and too indulged in the past singing.
The singing voice is not at all like a girl who goes to a friendship, but a sweet idol who participates in the event performance, and the effect of the song is very different, and eighty percent will make the people who watch the advertisement play.
"Matsuda-san, take a break for a while."
Hideki Hanyu understands that repeating the record all the time won't change anything, and he is not a person who likes to yell at others, so he still has to find a way to enlighten.
"I'm sorry to bother Hanyu-sensei."
Even if the recording was continuously denied, Matsuda Seiko's attitude was still gentle and polite.
"It's okay with Matsuda-san, it's that I can't express the effect I want." Hideki Hanyu is not polite.
Looking at Seiko Matsuda, who was sitting outside the studio, Hideki Hanyu asked, "Does Matsuda-san know about the state of female office workers in Tokyo?" ”
Seiko Matsuda shook her head, "I'm sorry, I don't know. ”
Hanyu Hideki then remembered that the person in front of him who made his debut after graduating from middle school, how could he know what an ordinary office worker looks like.
These neon female idols became popular at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and they were immersed in the complex and distorted entertainment industry before their minds were mature.
To a certain extent, it is detached from the real society, and it is not surprising that it will do things that shatter the three views of ordinary people.
"Matsuda-san, the protagonist of my song, is just an ordinary girl who wants to grasp happiness, confident, scheming, and cute appearance, all of which are just a cover for her heart, she wants to be her true self, but she has to wear a mask because of reality."
"Do you have to wear a mask because of reality?" Seiko Matsuda muttered softly.
"Yes, that's right."
Hanyu Hideki affirmed, but he didn't notice the sweet expression that Seiko Matsuda had been maintaining, and he lost his mind for a moment when he spoke.
"Matsuda-san has watched comedy movies, and the plot that often makes everyone feel happy from the bottom of their hearts does not come from deliberately pretending to be ugly, but the most realistic performance of the characters, so Matsuda-san doesn't need to think about expressing anything, just be yourself."
"Be yourself?" Seiko Matsuda seemed to understand something.
"Yes."
"Hanyu-sensei, I want to try again."
With that, Seiko Matsuda turned around and walked into the recording studio.
Standing in front of the microphone, Seiko Matsuda muttered for a moment and then began to sing.
When the song sounded, Hideki Hanyu felt that the sweet and cute popular idol was gone.
Maybe it's to get back the feeling when he was a student, or maybe it's just a simple role, the current Seiko Matsuda is the ordinary girl he wants in the eyes of Hanyu Hideki.
Faced with such a Seiko Matsuda, Hideki Hanyu had to admit that the other party was definitely the most professional of the neon idols.
To use an Internet buzzword in later generations to describe it, it is sober in the world, clearly distinguishing the boundary between the stage and the stage.
In front of the camera, he plays the idol that fans want, leaves the camera, and immediately becomes himself, even in the face of criticism, there is no pressure.
Perhaps it is this attitude that has made this idol who became popular in the Showa era able to be active until 40 years later.
As soon as Seiko Matsuda got into the groove, the recording went smoothly.
Just after four o'clock in the afternoon, all the recordings were completed, and Hideki Hanyu made a closing gesture to Seiko Matsuda and began to sort out the master tape.
Who would have thought that as soon as he turned around, he suddenly found that he didn't know when, there was a middle-aged man with a kind demeanor beside him.
"Hello, is there something wrong?"
Hanyu Hideki asked politely, concentrating on recording just now, and didn't pay attention to when the other party came.
can casually enter Sony's recording studio, the staff did not stop it, obviously it will not be ordinary people.
"When we first met, I was Muneo Wakamatsu, the producer of Seiko Matsuda, and I came to take a look when I learned that Seiko-san was recording, so I took the liberty of disturbing me, so I'm sorry." The middle-aged man explained.
"Hello Wakamatsu-san, I'm Hideki Hanyu."
As soon as Hanyu Hideki's words fell, Matsuda Seiko happened to come out of the recording room, and when he saw Wakamatsu Muneo, he was surprised and said, "Why is Wakamatsu-san here?" ”
"I heard that Shengzi-san was recording, so I came to take a look, but I didn't expect to find a very talented musician."
Wakamatsu Muneo's words were looking at Hideki Hanyu and talking.
"Wakamatsu-san has won the prize." Hideki Hanyu said politely.
"Absolutely not, Hanyu-san's song is really innovative, and an old antique like me would never be able to create it."
Speaking of this, Wakamatsu took out his business card and handed it to Hideki Hanyu, speaking at the right time.
"Hanyu-san has such a good appearance and such outstanding creative ability, I wonder if you are interested in being a singer?"
"Huh?"
Hanyu Hideki was full of question marks, why did he suddenly invite him to be a singer.
At this time, Seiko Matsuda, who was next to him, hurriedly explained, "I'm very sorry, Wakamatsu-san doesn't know Hanyu-san's identity. ”
After speaking, Seiko Matsuda introduced to Wakamatsu Muneo again.
"Hanyu-san is actually a writer, and his picture books are very popular with children, so Wakamatsu-san is busy with work all day and hasn't paid attention to the news some time ago?"
Who would have thought that even if Matsuda Seiko introduced Hanyu Hideki's profession, Wakamatsu Muneo still did not give up.
"Hanyu-san, I also have some rights at Sony Music, and if Hanyu-san is willing to be a singer, I can guarantee that Sony will invest the most resources."
As soon as Wakamatsu said this, even Matsuda Seiko next to him was a little jealous.
When Wakamatsu Muneo discovered her, he was unable to give such a guarantee.
But who wants to face such a promise, Hanyu Hideki still shook his head and refused, "I'm very sorry, I don't have the idea of being a singer." ”
After saying that, Hideki Hanyu turned his head to look at Seiko Matsuda.
"Matsuda-san, today's cooperation is very pleasant, I will leave first."
Then Hideki Hanyu left with the recorded master tape.
Recording songs is just the beginning, and there are still a lot of processes in the future, and he can't afford to delay due to the tight time.
Seeing Hanyu Hideki leaving, Wakamatsu Muneo showed a regretful expression, he was really optimistic about Hanyu Hideki.
