845. Each Other
Previously, Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe speculated that how to arrange SMAP was a reminder and deterrent from Kitagawa Mari and Keiko.
Today, I listened to the two brothers talking about SMAP in person. It was also the person Kitakawa, who was not allowed to participate in SMAP production, who took the initiative to start a conversation, and many of the things were clear.
Kitagawa Kuro and Kitagawa Mari, these siblings, are definitely not a single piece of the same body.
Or it should be said that if the issue of heirs is not involved, the two siblings can still cooperate. But Keiko Fujishima was pushed up too early by Mari Kitakawa, breaking the balance between them.
Looking further, it is because Kitagawa Marie matched Keiko Fujima and Mahiko Kondo, which caused Keiko Fujima to be affected after Mahiko Kondo's transnational scandal. In order to override the scandal, she pushed her up.
When Mari Kitakawa was overjoyed for her daughter's blessing in disguise, Kitakawa Kazuki probably had already prepared to watch the scene coldly.
It's a piece of ginger after all.
When Shinichi Iwahashi's mind was changing, he suddenly realized something. That is, Kitakawa Kazuki didn't seem to mind that he had discovered that there was a difference between the two brothers, and even deliberately revealed this to show him.
Although it is hard to say that Shinichi Iwahashi himself has been thinking too much, what is Kitakawa Hiroshi's intention? But first of all, this lack of concealment is the embodiment of Kitakawa Hiroshi's handshake.
Kitagawa Kazuki and Kitagawa Mary chatted, but did not forget the guest Shinichi Iwahashi aside. Kitagawa Kazuki regarded Shinichi Iwahashi as a guest of honor. Mari Kitagawa neither knew the young producer nor did she know the intention of her younger brother to invite Shinichi Iwahashi to see the SMAP concert. But Shinichi Iwahashi's identity is clear: a famous producer and the president of the record company.
Once you open your mouth, you won’t have any questions.
"The previous plan produced by Iwahashikawa is very exciting." Kitakawa Mari also knew that this producer had a bright future and it would be beneficial or harmful to have a good relationship. While praising him, he mentioned the possibility of future cooperation.
"If there is such a plan, how about considering Johnnie's children?" She discussed it kindly. But the meaning in her words was clear and clear. "Jennie welcomes the plan that can match the previous planning album."
Shinichi Iwahashi was polite and implicit, "When it comes to the vision of making male idols, no one can surpass Johnny and Johnnysan." Similarly, only when Kitakawa Hiroshi initiated his production invitation, he would consider accepting it.
This sentence is both an answer to Mari Kitakawa and also a comment for Kitakawa to listen to.
As expected, he said this, Kitakawaki, who was listening, looked slightly moved and showed a reserved smile. I don’t know if it was a compliment from Shinichi Iwahashi or whether it was acknowledging that this young producer had quick brains and accurate eyes.
But for Mari Kitakawa, since she recognized Johnny's leading position in the male idol world... she first felt that this young man knew the current affairs and had a clear mind. She was considered an outstanding figure among the new generation.
But the airs were a little more steady, and in front of the seniors, there was no humble appearance of a junior.
However, thinking that he became famous at a young age, he could understand his style. Kitakawa Mari is not stingy with showing her tolerance for young people. As long as the other party is willing to appreciate it.
Iwahashi Shinichi is polite and makes people unable to find fault.
After chatting for a few words, the "adults" who came to see SMAP left the lounge and left the space for these teenagers. After they rested, they would have their last performance today.
As soon as the big guys retreated, Masahiro Nakajima whispered, "That Iwahashi Sang is a famous producer."
Cao Yu just took the words casually, "Why don't this Iwahashi Sang will be our producer?"
"It's better not." Nakaju Masahiro thought seriously.
This Iwahashi Sang is a famous artist in producing bands and female idols. He loves rock music and has bought records where Shinichi Iwahashi served as the producer, but this is not the same as letting him serve as the producer of the group.
"From a realistic perspective, it is more promising to produce it with producers like Yasuno Yasuano..." Nakayuki Masahiro was murmured alone, and even Shingo Kasuke sitting next to him could not hear clearly.
Takuya Kimura doesn't care, "Jennissan must have considered these things."
"That's true." Nakaju Masahiro laughed.
JR, who has not yet debuted, has no say in who will be the producer when he debuted. Nakagi Masahiro and Kimura Takuya are the same age, and they are classmates from the same high school. In the group, they are like pillars of two backbones.
As long as these two people reached a consensus, the other four teenagers would follow them.
"And, even if it is really Iwahashi Sang, it's not a bad thing." Takuya Kimura added. He smiled, "Those people are trustworthy, aren't they?"
"I've heard of it very amazing." The youngest Kato Shingo is like the vocal insect of Takuya Kimura.
Nakayu Masahiro smiled, looked at the handsome and elegant side face of Kimura Takuya, and said, "Kimura is very romantic."
Takuya Kimura turned his head, saluted him, and smiled and said, "It's worthy of being Lidasan. I was seen through at a glance."
How can someone be so vague and so confident?
Zhongju Masahiro couldn't say for a moment whether he admired him, envied him, or was a little jealous of him.
...
That night, SMAP's last performance today ended successfully.
Shinichi Iwahashi sat in the relationship seat, watching the teenagers sing and dancing, mixed with a little acrobatic performance. Of course, Johnnys wore a shirtless suit and fancy performance costumes, and these ancestral aesthetics did not let them go.
The fans were unhappy about it, and Shinichi Iwahashi didn't know. But he looked at it and was a little full of question marks.
What exactly is Kitakawa Kazuo thinking?
However, aside from this confusing aesthetic, Johnniez's idol stage is indeed very good. These teenagers, together with JR who danced with companionship, are all very skilled, and it's no problem to play backflips.
If you don’t know, you might think that Johnniez’s office is an amateur acrobatic training center.
When SMAP is formed, the dance is accompanied by GENJ. GENJI's stage features are roller skating boys and dance lightsabers. These teenagers also change into roller skates and cover songs from seniors in their own performances.
The ancestral works of Johnniez include not only strange aesthetics and fans, but also famous songs from his predecessors.
Having said that, the level of SMAP singing is really hard to compliment... Shinichi Iwahashi sighed quietly in his heart when he listened. The sigh should not be too loud, so as not to disturb the other people in the relationship.
After all, all the staff sit upright, just like the relationship seat of parents participating in kindergarten performances.
However, after watching the entire concert, Shinichi Iwahashi still enjoyed it. Rather than saying that SMAP's stage performance is highly completed, Johnnys is more experienced in stage performances and has unique skills.
After watching SMAP, you can roughly imagine the performance of other groups in the concert. These are not only the magic weapon that Johnnys summed up in his years of hard work on male idols, but also the wealth and lifeline of the firm to continue in the future.
During the watching process, he probably understood the meaning of those performance costumes that confuses aesthetics. The reason is similar to his agreement that Mihejiang's confusing aesthetic performance costumes become concert costumes. First, it is to be conspicuous on the stage, and second, this unique thing is closer to "part of the stage."
It is a clothes that can only be worn on the stage at a glance.
When I thought that I agreed to Miwa-chan's confusing aesthetic performance costumes become the designated costumes for concerts. Not only that, I also wore a headband and wore Miwa-chan's performance costumes on my body...
Shinichi Iwahashi doesn't seem to be qualified to say that Johnny's aesthetic is confusing.
But no matter what, watching SMAP's performance made Shinichi Iwahashi admire this old man Kitakawa. After watching SMAP's performance, it was a foregone conclusion that he collaborated with Johnnys to cultivate an idol band.
...
The day after the concert, Shinichi Iwahashi went to the Johnnieth Office. This time, it was for the idol band mentioned by Kitakawa Hiroshi.
Shinichi Iwahashi and Kitakawa Kuro, plus a coordinator in charge of the activities of the JRs of the Johnnys, the three of them sat together.
Kitakawa Kazuki is not only the president of the firm, but also seems to be keen on playing the role of the school's principal and the club's manager. The JRs selected for the Johnniez have the opportunity to choose what they like to learn. The teenagers with good relationships are also encouraged to form teams together. Usually, they will organize group activities such as outdoor activities, sports competitions, etc.
To be honest, being a JR of Johnnys is no different from participating in a school club activity.
Of course, you must learn the necessary demeanor, voice, and ancestral acrobatics.
The Johnniez family is very prosperous. In addition to this office building, there are activity centers for training JRs everywhere in Tokyo, and there are dormitory buildings specially provided for JRs to live in. Of course, there are probably hundreds of people in the entire Johnniez-based JR, and it is impossible to gather together for training every Sunday.
The band that Iwahashi Shinichi had to give this time was not visible yet. When I was not prepared for anything at the beginning, it was difficult to directly decide on a lineup.
After all, we have to form a temporary group, rather than signing a contract with an underground band that is already tacitly understood.
In addition, considering the parallel mode of Kitakawaki's "idol" and "band", those who are selected to form a band usually have to participate in the program together to complete the idol's work tasks. In this way, the model of determining the lead singer and then selecting the right musician to form a band cannot be adopted.
You must also be competent in the band's work, and as an idol, you must also have the idol's level.
In this way, we must not only look at the characteristics of the selected teenagers, but also combine the ideas and opinions of Shinichi Iwahashi and Kitakawaki.
In preliminary terms, Kitakawaki means selecting those who are interested in music and are willing to learn instruments or form bands from JR, and then decide the final lineup based on their qualifications, wishes, and the characteristics between members.
At present, Shinichi Iwahashi also thinks this is a feasible solution for such a situation that he has nowhere to start.
"After that, we will arrange a JR stay here. At that time, Iwahashi Jun will also visit the children." Kitakawa launched an invitation.
Shinichi Iwahashi agreed and waited to go to the draft with Kitakawaki in the future.
After the preliminary cooperation was decided, Shinichi Iwahashi's GENZO would send people to serve as the teacher of the JRs who entered the inspection status and participate in their training. Shinichi Iwahashi would also go to watch regularly, discuss with Kitakawa Kawa, and finally decide on the list of candidates, and then carry out a more systematic and comprehensive training.
Now it is the first step.
Seeing the long road, however, no one was in a hurry, whether it was Shinichi Iwahashi or Kitakawa Kazuki. Anyway, before the debut of Johnny's idol, there was always a process of accumulating popularity. From teaming up to being allowed to make a formal debut, the interval between two or three years was normal.
The icon of Johnnie's official debut was the release of a record. Before that, even though he starred in a TV series or participated in a music program, his identity in the firm was still JR.
The most important thing is that as long as you don’t make a formal debut, you won’t get a share. In terms of the degree of penetration of commission, Johnnies is also a ruthless person in the industry.
Shinichi Iwahashi didn't care about when this unfounded idol band will debut. He knew that it was on the one hand that cooperated to cultivate idol bands. Kitakawa Kazuki took this opportunity to stabilize him and see his subsequent development on the other hand. Compared to when this cooperative band will debut, what is more important is how GENZO develops next and how he treats Johnnys.
Of course, the band is not the most important thing, it does not mean that the band is not important.
The male fight group suffered a crushing defeat, and the band of Johnnie's flower-studded performance was ridiculed, and Kitakawa Kazuki also held in a hurry to avenge his previous shame. For this reason, this time, we must make steady progress and become an impeccable "idol band".
"There is a child named Shigeru Shigeru," Kitakawa Kazuki and Shinichi Iwahashi said, "The guitar level is very good, it is an unforgettable performance."
Ginis's JR is personally managed by Hiroshi Kitakawa. He has a great memory and his JRs' names and traits are clear. Now that he thinks about it, he can talk casually, and it seems to be more familiar with the coordinated agents of the JRs who are accompanying him.
According to the introduction, Shigeru Shirashima is now 19 years old. He submitted his resume three years ago and joined Johnnys. As a JR, he is considered an older age. He has learned guitar since elementary school. Before joining Johnnys, he also formed an amateur band. After graduating from high school, he did not take the college entrance exam. He now lives in the dormitory provided by Johnnys. He usually trains and participates in some JR activities.
Listening to the introduction, I inexplicably give people a feeling of shabbyness.
Johnnys did not allow JR to go out to work. Before JR debuted, he couldn't get a share of money. It was okay for the young master from a good family to say, but those who had no money had to use Ai to generate electricity and wait to make it through. He was almost twenty years old and still lived in Johnnys' dormitory. Obviously, he was not a young master.
Kitakawaki means that Shigeru Shigeru's guitar skills are good, so it is no problem to be the lead guitarist of the band. In addition, he has a mature and steady personality, and even if he forms a team with, there is no problem.
...This is the positioning of treating him as the backbone from the beginning.
"If you can, please pay attention to him next time." Kitakawaki Hiroshi suggested.
