Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1192 1192. Ready
11 years ago, Yanyin started from "STAR!Nakamori Akina was drawn in "Birth".An inexperienced office and a newborn idol, crossing the river by feeling the stones, did not expect to become a big star who can represent the times.

With the last glories of the idol era, in the most gorgeous years of the entertainment industry, Kenyin relied on Akina Nakamori to make a name for himself and made a lot of money, and only then did he have the appearance of an entertainment agency.Kenyin and Nakamori Akina are the mutual achievements of the firm and the stars.However, even if the company takes a certain artist to prosper, it is impossible to change the fact that "an artist is a commodity placed in a window".

At the beginning of the new year, after Akina Nakamori returned to work, she was busy participating in special programs for the New Year, appearing at meetings that required her to appear, and moving between different recording studios—songs produced in her own name were recorded in Warner’s In the recording studio, the cooperation with V3 is carried out in Sony's recording studio.

After the most intense period of work, she made a special trip back to the office to report on her upcoming marriage this year.

"I have discussed with Iwahashi-san to get married this year. I hope to get the support of the firm."

Nakamori Akina's words are not so much a discussion or a request with the firm, but a notice to the firm—although her tone is not strong, but considering what she has decided, she will not turn back Since she has come here, she has made up her mind by making this matter clear.

Seeing Akina Nakamori's appearance at this moment, Toshio Nozaki seemed to feel helpless and speechless, so he smiled.From the first meeting to the present, in the past 11 years, Nakamori Akina's personality has hardly changed.

Seeing her own president-san smiling as if she couldn't help herself, Akina Nakamori felt that she might be a little too tough, and the announcement was too sudden, so she looked for her faux pas in her heart, and looked at Toshio Nozaki with childish eyes. court.

Just a smile from Toshio Nozaki softened Nakamori Akina's attitude.

In the eyes of an old fox like him, this Akina Nakamori is so innocent that people find it incredible at all times.Such a naive person would actually talk about marriage with a scheming person like Yanqiao Shinichi...

When Toshio Nozaki thought of this, he actually had a good impression of Shinichi Iwahashi in his heart.The character shown by this young man in his association with Akina Nakamori makes people feel that he is trustworthy.Although this young man is deeply scheming, but judging by his behavior all the time and how he treats his relationship with Akina Nakamori, he is by no means the kind of villain who makes people want to stay away from him.

Over the past 11 years, watching Akina Nakamori grow up, if you say you have no feelings, that's not true.

Toshio Nozaki said slowly, "Congratulations, Akina-chan. You can find your own happiness, and the office is also happy for you."

He said to Nakamori Akina, "If you and Iwahashi-kun feel that the time is right, getting married is a good thing."

Although you will not shrink back when you have made up your mind, there is nothing more gratifying than being blessed when you say something.Akina Nakamori was in high spirits, and felt warm from the heart for her tolerance towards President Nozaki.

"Thank you." She bowed her head and thanked Toshio Nozaki.

However, Toshio Nozaki did not respond, but asked her specific plans, "Have you decided on the date of naturalization and the time of the wedding?" He figured, "This year is the tenth anniversary of your debut. , Announcing your marriage is a good memory for the fans who support you."

"It hasn't been decided yet." Akina Nakamori replied honestly, "In a few days, Iwahashi-san's parents will come to Tokyo." She implied that she would wait until the parents of both parties met before making a decision.

But then, he told Toshio Nozaki, "Iwahashi-san also mentioned that this year marks the [-]th anniversary of my debut as a singer, and we should consider the arrangements for the anniversary celebration, so as not to cause too much trouble for the office."

"Iwahashi-kun has always been very considerate in his work." Toshio Nozaki didn't mind praising Iwahashi Shinichi.He changed the subject, "Then, about Akina-chan and Iwahashi-kun after getting married, do you two have any plans?"

Do you want to announce your retirement and leave the entertainment industry from now on, or is it possible to keep working in the industry?For Akina Nakamori, the answer is probably obvious.Toshio Nozaki waited for her to speak, to speak the answer.

Nakamori Akina bowed her head to him, "In short, I hope to be a competent wife who supports Iwahashi-san."

"It's terrible." Toshio Nozaki smiled.

It is definitely not an easy task to be the wife of a big shot in the entertainment industry.Marrying Iwahashi Shinichi, Nakamori Akina will have to show the demeanor of a big sister in front of the artists of Iwahashi's school.Besides, it was her job to socialize with the wives of the big shots.This Akina Nakamori will stand in the same banquet hall as the wife of the Nozaki family in the future.

To explain the marriage to the president of the firm, Nakamori Akina is not unprepared to be opposed or to be conditioned.However, everything went smoothly.President Nozaki is tolerant and amiable, like an elder who is pleased with the younger generation's marriage.

After explaining to the office smoothly, Nakamori Akina felt a stone in her heart, and with the joy of being blessed, she bid farewell to Toshio Nozaki.

Sending off this "guest", Toshio Nozaki thought for a while, picked up the receiver, and called Kenichiro Nozaki.

What Akina Nakamori has confirmed will not change. Once she is disappointed in someone, she will completely lose her trust in that person.If you know her temper, you must follow her and always maintain a sense of trust in her. There is no need to stop her when she says something.

It can only be said that the object she chose was Yanqiao Shinichi, which made it difficult for Yanyin to stop him.

Otherwise, whether this love affair can be cultivated or not depends on whether the firm wants her to get married.

Kenichiro Nozaki arrived neither too fast nor too slowly, leaving time for Toshio Nozaki to sort out his thoughts.The father and son moved to the small reception room next to the president's office.

"Just now, Akina-chan came over." Toshio Nozaki cut to the chase.

Kenichiro Nozaki figured out his father's expression - Toshio Nozaki was indifferent to emotion and anger, and it was because of this that Kenichiro Nozaki learned how to catch the clues that his father showed.He guessed, "Are you going to marry Yanqiao?"

"The timing is neither too early nor too late." Toshio Nozaki commented.

Nozaki Kenichiro nodded, "Yes, father....It is just right for Kenyin."

"Really?" Toshio Nozaki suddenly threw the ball into his son's hands, and it was just right to listen to him.

Kenichiro Nozaki caught the ball calmly, "Father, the rookie TRF launched by GENZO, judging by the current momentum, is already going to make a grand debut as a phenomenal rookie."

When talking about "phenomenal rookie", Kenichiro Nozaki had an idea in his mind.In the past few years, there have been quite a few phenomenal newcomers.

Phenomenon-level newcomers have emerged one after another, which means that the public's demand for singers has increased and their attention has also increased.The public is chasing the latest fad that a thousand yen can buy: a single from a "phenomenal singer".

"Speaking of this group, Iwahashi-kun has made an interesting publicity strategy, letting the group randomly appear in live performances at discos in Tokyo. If you want to meet them, it's best to concentrate on disco entertainment."

Kenichiro Nozaki told his father how he felt after participating, "...As long as you join this game, you will forget everything. Although I have the idea to find out, but in the process of chasing, unconsciously , also became fanatical, I must meet the group and watch a show."

"I see." Toshio Nozaki listened with gusto.

"I have to say with emotion, 'As expected of that rock bridge'." Kenichiro Nozaki couldn't help but smile wryly.

Toshio Nozaki turned a blind eye to the subtle emotions revealed by his son at this moment, he rolled his eyes, "The public just likes rock bridges."

Rather, it was that Yanqiao Shinichi who once again accurately felt the pulse of this era.

Kenichiro Nozaki leaned forward slightly, "Father, a new era is coming—no, it has already arrived. Of course, Iwahashi will not be unaware of this. If he hadn't realized it, there would be no TRF team." Combination appearance."

The so-called golden age has become a fantasy.The middle class still has the ability to maintain dignity, but for young people who have nothing, at the moment when they are about to enter the society, they first experience what it means to be lost.

Whether it’s TRF, or the promotional method arranged by Shinichi Iwahashi, when the public is led by this kind of publicity strategy, they will unknowingly turn all their attention to the group. No time to think about anything else.And in the process of chasing like this, he regards this combination that mobilizes everyone's emotions as a "hero".

The prerequisite for Shinichi Iwahashi to allow TRF to do this is that young people have enough emptiness.

In other words, this is because the times of recession have arrived.At this stage in previous years, young people were either playing games with their lives, or fooling the recruiters of large companies to live in style.

But, this year, they need to collectively face the dark clouds hanging over their heads.When feeling confused about the way ahead, people's consumption outlook will subconsciously tend to be conservative, and they will get a sense of security from group activities.

What TRF provides them is not only the sense of security of group activities, but also the intoxication of temporarily forgetting troubles.

"The beginnings of the new era have already been seen, and now we can almost see the whole picture." Kenichiro Nozaki talked about the excitement, his tone seemed a bit urgent because of the excitement.

"Father, when Kenyin decided to enter the TV industry with all his strength, he was clear about this. That TV station has endless production funds, and the era of showing off its power to the agency will be wiped out with the arrival of the new era. Entering the old era. According to the data sent by Dentsu, in the new quarter, the advertising expenses of TV stations have decreased for the first time."

As soon as the bubble bursts, the era in which programs could not be produced without going abroad or going to heaven and earth will come to an end. TV stations will find ways to reduce costs and treat artists more and more harshly.Conversely, the TV station will no longer be as dismissive as before in the face of the firm's gold and yuan offensive.

In the future, whoever has strong strength will be able to push his own actors into prime time, whoever will be able to become a guest of the TV station, and whoever will be able to control the right to speak in TV production.

The end of the old era is the arrival of a golden age for a firm like Yanyin.

Toshio Nozaki didn't criticize his son's impulsiveness, but said lightly, "TV stations have always been a place of fierce competition. The production bureau is right, and the power of the agency needs to be restrained. When it comes to the competition of strength, whoever wins uncertain."

There is the BURNING department, which is the first in the industry, and other firms that are also supported by the foundation.

Nozaki Kenichiro was reminded by his father, he was a little ashamed, straightened his body, and slowed down his tone, "However, for Kenyin, being able to let us use the weapons we are good at is already an advantage."

"Also," Nozaki Kenichiro mentioned, "when the TV station needs to refer to the opinion of the firm, it is even more difficult for the small firm to survive. Kenyin can take this opportunity..."

He spread out his palms, and gently closed them again, making a gesture of taking the small office into his pocket.

"Zhou Fangsang of BURNING, when expanding his influence, his favorite method is to use gold dollars to win over senior managers from other firms, so that he can lead his artists to become independent. With BURNING as a protective umbrella, even if he leaves the original firm, It can also avoid being sanctioned by the industry.”

"Yanyin doesn't have the power of BURNING, but it also has the means to strengthen itself."

"If you really want to say it, what Zhou Fangsang did was just to gather a group of miscellaneous fish around him."

Kenichiro Nozaki looked down on Zhou Fang Yuxiong's small favors, both kindness and power.Of course, Zhou Fang Yuxiong was born in an embarrassing little hooligan, and the methods he could use were, to put it bluntly, that of the Yakuza organization. A pampered son like Nozaki Kenichiro certainly looked down upon Zhou Fangyuxiong.

Since Yanyin turned to the business and shifted the focus of the business to the actor business, the past two years have been quite fruitful.Kenichiro Nozaki made a name for himself, and now that he sees the arrival of a new era, he is naturally full of ambition and doesn't take Zhou Fang Yuxiong seriously.

The worse the economy is, the more cheap entertainment consumption will be in full swing.

The public will sit in front of the TV again instead of going out to parties and travel.Therefore, it is on the table that the golden age of the TV industry is coming.

At this moment, it is definitely not just Yanyin who knows this and has already begun to think about how to act.

The golden age of television is still in sight, but the golden age of recording has already begun.For several years in a row, record sales were booming, and the public returned to the record craze of the 70s, and it was even worse.

At such a moment, it is impossible for Yanyin to be indifferent to the big piece of fat in the record industry.

"Now, just wait for Iwahashi." Toshio Nozaki said.
