Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1541. New Life

The cherry blossom season is always lively every year, but the flowering period always passes by in a hurry. Before you know it, the cherry trees have grown green leaves and spring is coming to an end.

In late spring and early summer, the wind was unusually strong, but the weather was very good, making people want to take a walk under the blue sky. The taxi stopped at the bottom of the ramp, and Chieko walked on this gentle slope leading to her daughter's house. The trees in the walls of the high-end residential buildings on both sides showed a refreshing light green. Listening carefully, it was the carp flags that were crackling in the wind.

Before the arrival of Boys' Day, families with boys have already started hanging carp flags.

“Without the sound of carp streamers, there would be no festive atmosphere.”

Chieko told her daughter about this short experience on the way here as a funny story. She leaned over and looked at the sleeping baby, smiled and said, "But Akina-chan is going to prepare a doll for the Girls' Day."

A week ago, Akina Nakamori gave birth to a daughter.

This is not Chieko's first time as a grandmother, nor her first time as a grandmother-in-law. However, when she looks at a newborn baby, she always feels a new surge of joy in her heart. This is a reflection of her rich emotions.

Seeing her mother's loving expression, Akina Nakamori could not help but feel dependent on her. After becoming a mother herself, she felt closer to her mother's heart.

"Tell Shinichi about it, he'll definitely be excited." Akina Nakamori had just finished teasing her husband when Shinichi Iwahashi came back from outside as if he had heard her muttering.

Hearing the noise in the entrance hall, the mother and daughter looked at each other. Akina Nakamori was about to laugh, but when she thought of the sleeping baby, she held her breath and just looked at her mother with wide eyes.

Some of the clumsiness of being a new mother.

Chieko found her daughter's appearance funny, but she was also relieved and felt that her daughter had become a mother. After watching her children move on to a new stage of life, Chieko now looks at this most special daughter and opens another door in her life.

Iwahashi Shinichi walked in, not knowing what had just happened. He greeted Chieko, and eagerly approached the baby, looking at her again and again. He carefully reached out and touched her, then turned around and spoke to his wife.

"Still sleeping. Just sleeping like that." He muttered quietly.

Akina Nakamori followed up on her husband's words, "That's what babies are like."

The couple's faces were close together, and they were observing their sleeping daughter together. Neither of them had any experience in taking care of a baby, and they realized that all the psychological preparations for the birth of their daughter were almost useless after she was born.

Imagining and actually holding your own baby are two completely different things.

The new parents were clumsy and cautious, and also had a sense of restraint as they didn't know how to love the child.

Chieko was nearby and felt that it was inconvenient to disturb them at this moment.

During dinner, Iwahashi Shinichi discussed with his mother-in-law, "Tomorrow, my father and mother will also come from Shizuoka. Mom, you should stay at home tonight."

Shizuoka's parents rarely appear in front of their children, and only when their granddaughter is born, Iwahashi Masaaki is willing to go to Tokyo again. With three generations living under one roof, Iwahashi Shinichi naturally doesn't want Chieko to be absent.

Ever since Akina first brought him to her, Chieko has had a deep understanding of Iwahashi Shinichi's character over the years. She knows that he has no interest or obsession with a big, lively family, but is simply and casually showing kindness to Chieko like a foreigner.

Knowing this, Chieko readily agreed to her son-in-law's proposal.

……

Taopu Star Production, such a big event cannot be concealed from the media.

However, it was not until Shinichi Iwahashi agreed that the news of "Akina and Iwahashi's first child was born" appeared in the newspapers. The gender of the child was kept secret for the time being, as Shinichi Iwahashi did not want the public to know too much about his child. When she grows up and wants to appear in public, it will naturally be known to the world.

On Friday, when he went to Mayumi Watanabe's office to get information, he first brought her Chitose candy. Mayumi Watanabe accepted the candy, but teased him: "Isn't Chitose candy given to babies when they are 100 days old?"

Iwahashi Shinichi gave a foreigner's expression: "Is that so? I saw it on TV."

Mayumi Watanabe watched him perform and said, "At this time, we should serve red bean rice."

Iwahashi Shinichi didn't know whether she was telling the truth or just teasing him as a foreigner like Akina Nakamori. But Mayumi Watanabe would not associate him with a "foreigner", but only with an "alien".

He nodded and said, "Then I'll treat you to red bean rice later."

Mayumi Watanabe smiled.

Iwahashi Shinichi breathed a sigh of relief. "Anyway, that's what I mean. Tell our relatives and friends that we have a new member in our family. If we wait until the baby is 100 days old, everyone would have seen it in the newspaper by then."

He joked, "We are in the entertainment industry after all, we can't hide anything."

After hearing what he said, Mayumi Watanabe replied, "No matter where I get to know about this happy event, I will be happy for you. Anyway, congratulations."

"Mayumi-san, are you going to go check on the baby?"

"I'm good at buying door-to-door gifts."

"That's true."

Iwahashi Shinichi added, "Speaking of gifts, I also have a gift that I want to give to my child."

Mayumi Watanabe waited for his next words. But his next words seemed to be impulsive, "How about GENZO taking the lead and organizing an award?"

"GENZO Cup Member Golf Grand Prix?"

Iwahashi Shinichi laughed, "Mayumi-san is really good at making fun of people." He changed the subject, "I want to organize a music-related award."

It's a music award, aimed at the record industry. Mayumi Watanabe put away her joking mood and asked, "What kind of award?"

Different awards have different focuses. Some focus on sales, some focus on popularity, and of course, more focus on social skills.

There are many kinds of music awards in the entertainment industry. If you don't just want to entertain yourself, you must get the cooperation of the industry. The simplest truth is, if you don't sign up, you won't be included in the selection. Organizing a music award sounds like a boring thing.

Iwahashi Shinichi told her: "Let's set up an award for record store employees to vote. You see, they are the ones who are first exposed to various types of music and can provide first-hand listening experience."

"Of course, everyone has heard of hit singles, and everyone knows what's popular now. However, there are also those records that are not popular enough but are stylish and well-made. The clerks in record stores handle all kinds of music. How do they view popularity and what are their preferences for music styles? I think there is a lot of room for improvement."

Shinichi Iwahashi had already had the idea of ​​establishing a new award.

He wanted to keep a commemoration when his daughter was born, so he just went all out to make his idea come true.
