Chapter 366: The Future Singer
Holding an octopus ball, Hanyu Hideki is dressed in a very down-to-earth manner.
Although he hadn't been to such a place with fireworks for a long time, it didn't affect him at all, and he skillfully squeezed into the crowd like an ordinary passerby.
Then he saw the source of the sound he had just heard.
It was a girl who was not tall, dark-skinned, not pretty, but unusually energetic.
The other party's voice is extremely textured, slightly hoarse, but has a unique sense of power.
When the girl sings, she has a smile on her face, clearly enjoying the joy of the music.
Let's not talk about the girl's singing skills.
This kind of enthusiastic and generous typhoon alone is something that many famous singers can't learn.
Hideki Hanyu listened carefully, and he was not impressed by the songs sung by the girl.
It was late when he came, and the girl didn't finish singing a few words.
Then send a thank you to those around you.
At this time, if it is in China, there will inevitably be applause around it.
After all, although the girl is unfamiliar with this song, she does sing it well.
But in the neon, everyone around him turned around and left with expressionless faces.
It's as if the onlookers just now were fake.
However, the singing girl was not discouraged and continued to thank enthusiastically.
It can be seen that she likes to sing from the bottom of her heart.
And at this moment, a man in a suit walked out of the crowd and talked to the girl very politely.
The voice was very low, and Hanyu Hideki didn't hear what the man in the suit said.
But I saw that the other party handed the girl a business card.
Hideki Hanyu has been in the entertainment world for so many years, and he can probably guess what this is doing.
It is estimated that he is an underground agent of the Running Order Gang, and he came here to try his luck.
I took a fancy to this girl and wanted to help introduce some business.
The business here, of course, is not about signing a record company and making a record debut.
Neon's music market is big though.
But in a way, it's actually very small.
Most musicians who want to live on music will find it difficult to enter the mainstream music industry throughout their lives, and can only work underground.
At first, just like the girl in front of me, there was an open-air performance in a place similar to Yoyogi Park.
If you have the money, you can rent your own venue to hold a performance.
If you don't have money, you can only try to "apply" at LIVEHOUSE to get the opportunity to perform and make money.
AND NEON'S HUGE LIVEHOUSE MARKET HAS ALSO GIVEN BIRTH TO THE UNDERGROUND BROKER INDUSTRY.
Most of them don't belong to formal offices or record labels.
The main job is to help underground singers or bands introduce places that can make money to perform.
Some of them are related to the mainstream music industry, and some "formal" businesses can also be introduced.
For example, as a support musician for the release singer, or as a tour accompaniment, warm-up performance, etc.
The person in front of me is the typical underground agent.
After all, practitioners in the mainstream music industry would rather go to formal places that have been screened by the market.
I don't waste time by coming to a place like Yoyogi Park to discover new people.
Because of those LIVEHOUSES, the strength is outstanding, and they already have a certain number of supporters, and they can't pick the singers who want to be favored by the record company.
And whether you can debut or not, to put it bluntly, has nothing to do with strength.
This is the golden age of idols.
The girl in front of her, first of all, is a little out of line with the trend in terms of appearance.
Want to rap skills?
There are so many popular female idols under Cloud Entertainment, except for a few people, most of them are too far from the girls in front of them.
If nothing else, it's a member of the kitten club under the AKS office.
Removing Sachiko Kamaike, there are a few others who can listen to singing.
It's not just a mess.
Since the New Year, a group of little girls have almost monopolized the public trust list.
It's no wonder that a few years later there will be a big backlash.
And just when Hanyu Hideki was thinking wildly, the underground agent who contacted the girl had already left.
Even the people who were originally onlookers around them were gone.
And then......
Only Hideki Hanyu, who was tall and holding an octopus ball, stood there stunned.
The picture is somewhat funny.
"Sir, you didn't leave with them, did you still want to hear me sing?"
Hanyu Hideki wanted to say, but I just thought about it for a while and didn't have time to leave.
Seeing that Hideki Hanyu didn't answer, the girl asked again.
"Are you an agent like the gentleman just now?"
"Uh......"
Hideki Hanyu said, "I'm just a passerby who is ready to eat octopus balls.
I can't be silent all the time.
He simply asked, "Whose song were you singing just now?" β
"It's a song I wrote when I was in high school, and it's pretty good, right?"
When the girl said that she had written the song, her tone was joyful, and her expression was a little proud.
"Not bad." Hideki Hanyu complimented.
I thought it was no wonder that there was something unreasonable about the creation of this song, as if the person who wrote the song couldn't read music, and it turned out that it was written when he was a teenager.
"Thank you for the compliment, even though I can't read music, everyone says I'm very good at writing songs. I'm going to finish the show today, but if you want to listen to it, sir, I can sing it again. β
The girl's words made Hideki Hanyu speechless.
I just thought that the song was written by someone who didn't know music, but it turned out that the other party really didn't know music.
Wait a minute!
Can't read music......
Hideki Hanyu seemed to remember something.
Through the dim light cast by the street lamp, Hanyu took a closer look at the girl's face.
No makeup, not pretty, a bit of a familiar feeling.
"Are you from Hokkaido?" Hideki Hanyu tried to ask.
"Hey! How do you know I'm from Hokkaido? β
Hanyu Shushu said in the heart, your tongue-curling accent in the Northeast region is not too obvious!
But that wasn't the point, and he didn't want to know where the girl was from.
After deciding on the place, Hanyu Hideki asked, "Can you know your name?" β
When the girl heard this, she smiled heartily.
"My name is Miwa Yoshida."
The moment he heard the name, Hideki Hanyu thought to himself that he had guessed correctly, and it was really this one.
Then the first reaction is to instinctively look left and right.
Miwa Yoshida asked curiously, "Is Mr. looking for something?" β
"Nothing." Hideki Hanyu replied.
He just wondered if the little fox had appeared, and there was still a Winnie the Pooh and a giraffe hidden around.
Of course, this is just a joke.
Calculating the time, the former should not have known Miwa Yoshida yet.
As for the latter, there is no such thing as a plane.
Even so, I was able to meet Miwa Yoshida, the lead singer of the future neon national band DREAMS COME TRUE.
It was an amazing experience.
I have to say that the girl in front of me, who is only twenty years old, is not a beauty, but her personality is really likable.
In the neon music circle of later generations, who doesn't know that Masato Nakamura of the Dreams Come True band looks like Winnie the Pooh on the outside, but he is actually a short-tempered person.
On the contrary, Miho Yoshida, who looks cold and sassy, often plays the role of a good old man in the band.
Seeing that Hideki Hanyu didn't speak again, Miwa Yoshida couldn't help but remind, "Sir, do you still want to listen to songs?" β
"Of course." Hideki Hanyu replied.
"Then I'll get started."
Miwa Yoshida was very happy to hear that someone was willing to listen to her sing.
Then, she sang a song of her own composition for Hideki Hanyu.
It's still the kind of composition that doesn't conform to the norm.
There is a different kind of good feeling in "awkward".
It is worthy of the creation of a person who does not know music.
Hideki Hanyu accompanied by the singing, finished the octopus balls in his hand, and finally let his painting style return to normal.
"Sir, today's show is over, goodbye."
Miwa Yoshida, who finished singing, began to pack her things.
Hearing this, Hideki Hanyu stepped forward and asked, "Is the business card that the agent gave you just now still there?" β
Miwa Yoshida replied, "Yes." β
Hanyu said, "Can you lend me it?" β
Miwa Yoshida didn't know why, but she still gave her business card to Hideki Hanyu.
Hideki Hanyu didn't look at the information on the business card, but wrote a string of phone numbers on the reverse side.
When you return your business card, don't forget to say, "Please contact me." β
"Are you going to introduce me to the LIVEHOUSE show too?"
Miwa Yoshida apparently also uses Hideki Hanyu as an underground agent.
βLIVEHOUSEοΌβ
Hideki Hanyu thought to himself, how do I know any LIVEHOUSE.
HOWEVER, THERE ARE QUITE A FEW LIVEHOUSE OWNERS WHO RENT HIS SPACE.
But when you think about it, it seems to be pretty much the same.
So I simply said, "I'm not an agent, I have my own LIVEHOUSE, and since you like to sing, you should sing to more people." β
After speaking, he glanced at Miwa Yoshida's feet, and the old cassette player used to play the accompaniment.
"And with professional musicians to help you play, singing will be more enjoyable."
Miwa Yoshida put away her business card, "I'll think about it." β
Hideki Hanyu gestured to make a call, "Then I'll wait for your call." β
Miwa Yoshida blinked, "I didn't say I would definitely get in touch." β
Hideki Hanyu affirmed, "You will." β
"Why are you so sure?"
"Because you belong on a bigger stage."
ββ
Saying goodbye to Miwa Yoshida, Hideki Hanyu wandered around Yoyogi Park for a while.
I listened to the mancai joke and watched the lame magic.
Then I went home and rested.
Following.
The Tokyo Electronic Entertainment Exhibition has entered its final day.
Hideki Hanyu did not plan to attend the closing ceremony.
When he woke up in the morning, he contacted his assistant Reiko Uemura.
Tell the other party that if a person named Miwa Yoshida calls recently, he will find a LIVEHOUSE that rents his house and introduce him to the performance.
He was in no hurry to sign the other party immediately.
After all, in his opinion, this young singer who has just left Hokkaido and came to Tokyo to break through still lacks enough exercise.
Besides, the atmosphere in the music industry today is not suitable for Miwa Yoshida's debut.
After the order, Hideki Hanyu thought that Miwa Yoshida would wait a while before calling.
As a result, he hung up the phone, and he went out to pick up the little female cat from the pet center.
Turn on the TV and get ready to watch the program on satellite TV on the cloud.
Reiko Uemura's call came back.
Less than two hours had passed.
Reiko Uemura reported on the phone, "Hanyu-sensei, that Miss Yoshida has called. β
Hideki Hanyu asked, "Is LIVEHOUSE connected?" β
"No, I've just been in contact with Yada-san, and I haven't decided which LIVEHOUSE to go to."
Reiko Uemura replied, "But I told her who you are." β
"It's okay, I didn't plan to hide it." Hideki Hanyu said nonchalantly.
I was outside last night to disguise myself just to avoid attracting onlookers.
"If you want to live in a LIVEHOUSE, choose one that is suitable for the band to perform, if there is no suitable one, you can find Iijima Sanchi, she must have a channel."
"Okay."
"Tell me when you're sure."
"Yes."
Reiko Uemura hung up the phone and simply stopped going through the pile of rental information of Hideki Hanyu.
Instead, he called his best friend Michi Iijima directly.
As the president of Cloud Arts, Iijima Sanchi naturally has no shortage of performance partners for LIVEHOUSE.
Very quickly helped to contact the place.
It's just that Iijima Sanchi is strange that if Hideki Hanyu wants to arrange an artist, why don't you contact her directly, but have to let Reiko Uemura go around.
But for this little thing, she can't ask the boss directly.
If you want to understand the situation, you might as well actually go and see it.
On the other hand, Reiko Uemura, with the help of her best friend, contacted the owner of LIVEHOUSE.
Immediately afterwards, he got in touch with Miwa Yoshida and asked him to perform at a LIVEHOUSE in Shinjuku tonight.
In the end, he told Hideki Hanyu what he had decided.
By this time, it was already afternoon.
Hideki Hanyu, who had been at home for a day, was getting ready to go out.
Akina Nakamori, who went out to work, is back.
In order to be invited by the Governor of Tokyo tomorrow, she needs to try on clothes and styling.
Then begged Hideki Hanyu to be her counselor.
Hideki Hanyu had nothing to do, so he agreed.
In this way, he accompanied Akina Nakamori to go out in the afternoon, and waited in the private modeling studio until it was dark.
The Pokeball C handheld that he took with him was out of power.
Walking out of the door of the modeling studio, Hideki Hanyu stretched his waist widely.
Seeing this, Akina Nakamori immediately came up and grabbed Hideki Hanyu's arm.
"Hanyu-kun has worked hard, he must be bored with me for so long, how about I invite Hanyu-kun to dinner?"
"Okay, I suddenly want to eat barbecue, I know there's a restaurant in Shinjuku that does a great job."
"Then let's go."
"Let's go."
Hideki Hanyu got on his Mercedes Big G and headed straight for Shinjuku.
Enter the barbecue restaurant of your choice and have a full meal.
Hanyu Hideki looked at the way Akina Nakamori called the waiter and took the initiative to pay the bill, and inexplicably felt a little novel.
Over the years, I have not been paid by others for a long time when I have come out to eat.
Thinking of this, Hideki Hanyu laughed interestingly.
Seeing this, Akina Nakamori leaned over and asked curiously, "What are Hanyu-kun laughing at?" β
"Nothing."
"Say......" Akina Nakamori coquettishly.
"I just think it's very interesting to pay the bills, and I feel like I'm being raised by Mingcai."
Hanyu Hideki's words made Akina Nakamori's eyes smile like a crescent moon and asked, "Does Hanyu-kun really think so?" β
"Really, I'm still thinking that one day if my business fails and goes bankrupt, I may really have to rely on Ming Cai to feed me."
Akina Nakamori certainly knew that Hideki Hanyu was joking.
But I couldn't help but say, "If there really is a day, I will definitely work hard to make money and raise Hanyu-kun." β
"Well...... then I'll ask President Akina from now on."
Hideki Hanyu pretended to be serious.
Then Akina Nakamori smiled even more happily.
After some jokes, the two left the restaurant and looked out at the moonlit night sky.
Akina Nakamori asked, "Do you want to go home next?" β
Hanyu Hideki thought of the news that Reiko Uemura had told him on the phone in the afternoon, and it seemed that the LIVEHOUSE that helped Miwa Yoshida contact was nearby.
So he said to Akina Nakamori, "It's too early to go back, how about we go to LIVEHOUSE and listen to the song?" β
"YES, YES, I'M SO BUSY WITH WORK, I HAVEN'T BEEN TO LIVEHOUSE FOR A LONG TIME."
"I know there's one nearby, so let's go."
"Has Hanyu-kun been here before?"
"No, but ......"
Hideki Hanyu told Miwa Yoshida about Akina Nakamori.
"Then let's hurry up."
I heard that Hideki Hanyu went to Yoyogi Park to hang out alone, and I accidentally found a singer with a good talent, and I also helped find a LIVEHOUSE for the performance.
Akina Nakamori suddenly became interested and wanted to meet this Miwa Yoshida.
The two said they would go, and soon they arrived at the door of the LIVEHOUSE.
But before she entered the door, Akina Nakamori suddenly pointed not far away and said to Hideki Hanyu.
"Hanyu-kun, that seems to be Iijima-san."
"Huh? It's really her. β
Hideki Hanyu also saw it at this time, and Michimo Iijima was standing next to a taxi and paying the driver's bill.
"Iijima-san!"
After confirming that it was Iijima Sanchi, Akina Nakamori hurriedly greeted loudly.
Although Iijima Sanchi is now the president of Cloud Arts.
However, I also worked as an agent of Akina Nakamori for a long time, and the personal relationship between the two is still very good.
However, Akina Nakamori's shout attracted the attention of many people around.
Frightened, she hurriedly shut up.
She, the top neon diva, and Hideki Hanyu, a national writer, don't want to go to LIVEHOUSE if they are seen through the disguise.
However, because of Akina Nakamori's shouting, Iijima Sanchi over there also noticed the two.
After paying the fare, Iijima Sanchi walked over quickly.
After the three of them said hello, Akina Nakamori asked in a low voice.
"Iijima-san, why are you here?"
Hearing this, Iijima Sanchi looked at Hideki Hanyu.
"Hanyu-sensei suddenly wanted to introduce singers to perform in the LIVEHOUSE, and I was a little curious, so I decided to come and have a look."
Akina Nakamori immediately said, "It turns out that Iijima-san is also for that Miss Yoshida, so let's go in and have a look." β
The repercussions are mixed, so I'll hang it for the time being, and I'm still writing later, don't worry, I'm a little busy at work lately, and I'm trying to make life sad, and I hope my brothers understand.
Thanks to the owner of Tongzhai, saynil, banana obedient, funny funny, Z465j, dance Qingying 1 for the tip.
Thank you brothers who voted, thank you very much.
