This Saturday is Miwa-chan's birthday, and the little fox is waiting for Shinichi Iwahashi to give her a birthday present.

She asked for a long time, if she didn't send it in the end, would it disappoint her, and put it aside for a while, it would make her feel evil, and the possibility of pushing Iwahashi Shinichi to the ground and rubbing it was not low.

I can't help it, just think it's for myself-

In order for Miwa-chan to give himself a return gift a month later, the birthday gift that should be given is also given.

Shinichi Iwahashi went to a meeting with Watanabe Manyumi, and when he was chatting, he casually complained to her about Miwa-chan asking him for a gift. He couldn't do anything about Miwa Chan, and Watanabe Manyumi looked like he was happy to watch the excitement.

As Iwahashi Shinichi spoke, he glanced at her, and when he saw her smile that was not a big deal when he saw the excitement, he suddenly realized that he had chosen the wrong person to complain.

But then again, this kind of complaint has no other object to post than her.

said it to Watanabe Manyumi, and at most she laughed at it. If you tell Brother Nakamura, you will be gloating 300%. As for telling other people, it may not be a reaction.

"So," Watanabe Manyumi accepted when she saw it, "Did Shinich-kun think of what to send?"

Iwahashi shook his head, "After that, I'll go take a look." Thinking about it, he said casually, "However, if you want to give a gift to Miwa-chan, you don't need the gift selection skills you gave me before." ”

"It's imaginable. Watanabe Manyumi thinks so.

If Miwa-chan was satisfied with receiving an ordinary gift, it wouldn't give him such a headache.

In the same way, Shinichi Iwahashi also has no superfluous expectations about what kind of gift he will receive on his birthday, and just hopes that the aesthetics of Miwa-chan will not be too explosive.

"Anyway, the ad for Miwa-chan lip balm is going to be signed, right?" he said.

After receiving a positive reply, Shinichi Iwahashi suggested to Manyumi Watanabe that he negotiate with the lip balm advertiser and use the song DREAMS COME TRUE as the theme song for the commercial.

"I thought of it together. Watanabe replied, "That's what I'm going to do." Now that the band's popularity has opened up, and it is the time when it is popular, it is not difficult to negotiate. ”

"Besides, it's still an advertisement for the core character of DREAMS COME TRUE as the protagonist. She saw it right.

Firms, advertisers, no one is stupid enough to use other singers' tunes in advertisements where the lead singer of another band is the protagonist.

"Definitely. Iwahashi nodded cautiously, "Either you don't use advertising songs, or you can only use the band's songs." ”

In this way, as long as you can get a tune that makes the advertiser feel that it matches the advertisement, there is almost no problem.

Advertisements for lip balm are contracted on a quarterly basis, and will be filmed and broadcast soon after the decision is made.

The first show of the circus tour takes place on June 11, and at the end of May, the band will release a new album and sing songs from the new album during the tour.

Whether it's Shinichi Iwahashi or Manyumi Watanabe, what they want to negotiate with advertisers is to use the tunes from the new album.

There's not too much advertising, at least so far, the promotional specifications for this new album that hasn't been released yet, but the only way to do it is to continue to increase, and there is no reason to cut it.

In the second half of this year, DREAMS COME TRUE is only preparing to release a transition single at the end of October and early November to maintain exposure, and other than that, there will be no major events, and no more TV appearances will be made except for the promotion period, so as to maintain enough mystery.

From "Future Visions II" to "Eyes to me", it is enough to play two good cards a year, and if you have a hunch that a good song will become popular, you have to save it for next year.

After finishing his business, Shinichi Iwahashi said good things to himself in front of the domineering president, "Isn't there an advertiser who wants to use all of DREAMS COME TRUE at the same time, or wants to use the image of the giraffe-kun?"

With more money and less work, he really wants to shoot commercials.

"Unfortunately, not yet. Watanabe replied.

Iwahashi Shinichi didn't give up and continued to ask the boss of the office for work, "Let's also increase my income for me and Nakamura-san?" ”

Time and time again, Manyumi Watanabe's laughter is firmly on this "BOSS".

Maybe it's not the word "BOSS" that's funny, but Shinichi Iwahashi when he calls her "BOSS".

"By the way," Watanabe Manyumi remembered something and said to Shinichi Iwahashi, "Momoko-san Kikuchi helped recommend ZARD's new album on the radio. ”

Iwahashi nodded cautiously and replied casually, "That's the case." ”

Before Kikuchi Momoko called to ask for tickets for the ZARD concert, he told Watanabe Manyumi, and both of them knew what was going on.

Watanabe Manyumi mentioned it and said casually, "Kikuchi-san's enthusiasm as a fan is really long-lasting." ”

Shinichi Iwahashi made her laugh, "It's only been a few months, and it's still far from 'long-term'." But it's not that I don't understand the true meaning of Watanabe's words.

In the past, when the Yuejiu drama was broadcast, there was still a layer of relationship between the TV series, but now it is a real spontaneous recommendation without interest. To such an extent, Momoko Kikuchi's love for the ZARD song when she first recommended it was true.

Of course, whether it's a real liking or a fake liking, it doesn't matter to Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe. However, Kikuchi Momoko's way of expressing her liking generously shows that her personality is quite amiable.

"Still,"

The mention of Kikuchi Momoko and the mention of ZARD reminded Watanabe of Shinichi Iwahashi's previous sale of Sekiko, "What are you going to do with that idea to raise the popularity of the band?"

"Now is not the time. "Iwahashi Shinkazu.

Men sell guanzi, which makes people feel the most unhappy.

Iwahashi Shin took her unhappiness in his eyes and explained, "It's really not the right time, at least this advertising season has passed." ”

Watanabe Manyumi had no choice but to accept this statement, so she simply chatted with him about ZARD along Kikuchi Momoko.

In any case, a star of another firm who likes the band will not be the protagonist of their topic.

In fact, after Momoko Kikuchi received the album and concert tickets sent by the record company, she also called Shinichi Iwahashi again to thank her.

Iwahashi made a gesture of caution, and he didn't pay attention to it after he was ordered. I received a thank you call from her again, and I was polite and polite, but I had a good impression of this gentle and submissive girl, but she was not submissive.

ZARD's new album sales are solid, the promotion plan is well planned, everything is going smoothly, there is nothing to worry about, and if there are no accidents, this album may be a long-term seller on the album chart.

However, it is also unlikely that there will be a big explosion of sales and popularity on this album. Because of this, Watanabe Manyumi was looking forward to Shinichi Iwahashi's idea of hiding and not saying.

Instead, Sachiko Kamaike was asked to participate in a fashion magazine shoot, and the feedback after the magazine's release was unexpectedly good.

Sachiko Kamaike, who is tall and has a refreshing temperament, appeared in fashion magazines as the lead singer of a rock band, and even subverted the inherent impression of ordinary women as the "lead singer of a rock band".

In the interview attached to the magazine, Sachiko Kamaike's dual identity as an "urban woman" and "lead singer of the band" showed the world more possibilities for women.

At the same time, this approach also pushed ZARD completely towards commercialization, separating it from "orthodox rock bands". Of course, Iwahashi Shin'ichi has never positioned ZARD as an "orthodox" who only makes music and does not participate in anything else.

Since the response to asking Sachiko Kamaike to shoot a fashion magazine is good, it is worth seriously managing this branch line in the future and letting her do a little modeling work appropriately.

After chatting for a while, Iwahashi Shinichi looked at the time and got up to say goodbye.

Watanabe reminded him, "See you in the evening." ”

Shinichi Iwahashi let out an "ah", remembered what she said, and promised, "I know." ”

......

It's a distant thing to work with the boss of the office, and the occasional communication with other studio stars is inconsequential, and the only thing that can be done is to prepare a birthday present for Miwa-chan.

After leaving Watanabe Manyumi, Iwahashi looked at the time, fished in broad daylight, and took time to go shopping.

However, Shinichi Iwahashi goes to the department store alone and doesn't know what to give her as a birthday present.

He has little interest in shopping, and often goes straight to the point when he wants to buy something, but when he chooses gifts aimlessly, there is no other choice than to go from house to house.

There are very few office workers who can leisurely shop at this time, and Iwahashi Shinichi turned and turned, and in the end, he didn't choose a good gift for Miwa-chan, but bought something for his own paper tiger with teeth and claws.

When he looked at the jewelry, he couldn't imagine giving the jewelry to Miwa-chan, and he always felt that the picture was funny, but he thought it was appropriate to give it to Akina Nakamori-

Even if he doesn't have a good eye, he feels good about himself and generally thinks it's appropriate.

As a result, Shinichi Iwahashi gradually forgot the real purpose of fishing during the day to go shopping, and when he came out of the department store, he was holding a bracelet he bought for Akina Nakamori.

It wasn't until he got into the car that he remembered to buy a gift for Miwa-chan - the forgotten thing.

No way......

The department stores in Ginza couldn't find anything suitable for Miwa-chan, so Shinichi Iwahashi changed positions again and carried out the fishing to the end. turned and turned, and finally spent 15,000 yen to buy a ...... for Miwa-chan at the musical instrument store that had nothing to do with Miwa-chan Ocarina.

Iwahashi Shinichi didn't understand the ocarina at all, and he wanted to buy it for Miwa-chan, not to encourage her to learn an instrument that he didn't know anything about, but to buy it by looking at the edge.

The ocarina she bought for her was made to look like a cartoon cat, with a small paw stretched out from the mouthpiece, and additional ears of the cat, and the cat's body and expression were painted on the front of the ocarina.

Giving a cat to a mouse who likes to carry a gun is a meaningful gift......

It's not that complicated, I just think this little thing is cute.

However, just for fun, he spent a huge sum of 15,000 yen to buy an ocarina that may not come in handy, and may only be placed there to fall into ashes, and Iwahashi Shinichi's poor character is faintly loose.

After buying a birthday present, Shinichi Iwahashi seems to have done a big thing, just waiting for two days to give it to Miwa-chan.

There is also a gift for Akina Nakamori, and I can't wait to give it to her.

Even so, in the last two or three days, the two have their own busyness, and they don't have much time to meet. But the gift is a thing, unless it is prepared and waited for in advance for a special day, otherwise, the gift that I bought on a whim when thinking about someone, there is a feeling that the sooner it can be delivered to her, the better.

Iwahashi Shinichi pondered about giving her a gift, and suddenly felt that this breathless appearance was strangely interesting.

Buying gifts to kill time in the evening.,I'm going to have dinner with the people of TV Asahi tonight.,Discuss about the tricky show in the project.。

Manyumi Watanabe, who had just met in the afternoon, also attended with the manager of the firm-

The phrase "see you in the evening" is about this dinner.

It was decided that two episodes would be broadcast in a row at 10 p.m. on Friday evenings in early August, and then it would be decided whether it would be necessary to regularize it based on the ratings and feedback from viewers.

Watanabe Manyumi's office serves as the largest sponsor of the show, and the popularity of DREAMS COME TRUE this year has made Watanabe Manyumi's office make a lot of money, and it is quite rich in hand, which is just used to fill the sponsorship fee for this show.

And although the "Kitchen" she invested in was released in a small restaurant and did not have much hope at the box office, it had a good reputation and kept it in theaters, and when it came to the next level, there was no problem in recovering the cost.

As for making money, the majority of it is still necessary to wait until the release of videotapes and the sale of videotapes to make money.

There is no loss and you can still make a little money, this is not only a question of whether the purse is lost, but also how the outside world thinks of this eldest lady who has separated from Watanabe's production family.

At least from the time she became independent to the present, every step she has taken has been very stable, so stable that people can't look down on her and can't see her as the "second lady of Watanabe's producer", especially the people at TV Asahi, who will not underestimate her.

TV Asahi is also willing to test broadcast this program, hoping that the two partners, Manyumi Watanabe and Shinichi Iwahashi, can make a new program comparable to the band Heaven.

After the Band Heaven, a new show is necessary in every sense of the word.

Of course, for such a dinner, the chubby young man Yasushi Akimoto, who was co-opted by Shinichi Iwahashi to cooperate, should also be present. I haven't seen him for a while, but the fat young man's physique is still the same, and his smile and slow slickness have not changed at all.

The absolute protagonists of this meal are the people of Watanabe Manyumi and Asahi TV, Shinichi Iwahashi is in charge of assisting the domineering president, and the fat young man is a cold bystander, only speaking when mentioning things related to the content of the show.

The female boss of the office is not good at socializing, and after this meal, Watanabe Manyumi is ready to leave the venue and hand over the next continuation of the stall to the manager of the office who came with her. As for the topics that may be discussed in the future, it will be up to Shinichi Iwahashi to continue to be responsible.

As soon as she left, the men moved to nightclubs.
