Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 363 363. A Showdown

(supplement)
At 04:30 in the afternoon, Kato came to TSUTAYA in Shibuya.It's not yet time to start, but quite a few people have already gathered around here.

Looking around, he thought, there were many more people than he had imagined.

You don't need to communicate with each other, occasionally meet and make eye contact, you know that these people have the same purpose as Kato, in order to participate in the free event held by Chisato Moritaka here today.

This year, after repeating his ronin life, Kato finally passed the entrance examination of his target university, and got rid of the heavy psychological burden in the past.

Now that the world is booming, college students receive unprecedented high-quality treatment, and Kato, who originally regarded studying as the only way to get ahead, often hears people say that a large company has prepared trips to Okinawa for them in order to persuade students to join the job. A senior was competed by several companies, and finally joined the top company in the industry, as if he was also encouraged, with countless beautiful visions for the future.

By the time he takes office, the prospects will be as good as they are now, perhaps even wider than they are now.

After letting go of his own burden, Kato did not forget that Chisato Moritaka who gave him strength in his repeating career is still her loyal fan. Not only that, but he also thought that he was the earliest fan of Chisato Moritaka. The "wisdom eye" discovered this treasure The idol feels a strange pride.

When the people around him supported Akina and KYONKYON, and liked Yoko and Shizuka, Kato always only supported one idol, Chisato Moritaka, and hoped that she would also become popular soon.

Just like a fan who got rid of the burden of repeating his studies and started a new life, Kato sincerely hopes that his idol can also get rid of the status quo of being half-black and not popular, and move towards a broader future.

Not long ago, Chisato Moritaka released a new single "17 Years Old". Kato bought the single immediately and listened to it repeatedly.About two or three weeks later, a classmate suddenly asked him: "Kato, have you bought "17 Years Old" by Chisato Moritaka?"

After Kato replied "I bought it", the classmate borrowed this single from him to listen to.

"It's okay to borrow, but why do you suddenly want to listen to Chisato-chan's single?" Kato asked him.

Instead, the classmate showed an expression of "You, as a fan of Moritaka Chisato, don't know?" Then, he told Kato that Kawabata Kichiro wrote about Moritaka Chisato in the "Weekly Modern" article.

"I went to the record store and said it was sold out. The record company is urgently making additional prints, so we can only wait for a while." The classmate said, "Maybe everyone who read the magazine bought it? I wanted to go to record rental. Let’s take a look at the store, but thinking that there is such a loyal fan of Moritaka Chisato, I might as well come and ask you.”

Of course, Kato was not stingy about lending singles to his classmates. He also thought about the article that his classmates said, so he went to read the "Weekly Modern". Kato was both happy and grateful for Kawabata's insight.

……

TSUTAYA in Shibuya, there are many more people gathered here today than expected.

Because the venues are all reserved in advance, this free event has been decided before the release of the single, so I didn’t expect that there will be such a grand event after the release of the single, and I also didn’t expect the place where I will perform today. It is very likely You have to be surrounded by fans who flock to you.

Chisato Moritaka stayed in the temporarily borrowed lounge, and listened to her manager Kawashima telling her that the number of spectators who came may be more than twice as many as expected. In order to prevent accidents, staff members are temporarily seconded to maintain order. And depending on the situation, control the number of spectators entering the venue.

Now that Kawashima told her this, Moritaka Chisato still felt a little unreal.

It seems that I have suddenly gained a lot of attention, and I have a lot of calls to discuss work with Kawashima-san.In the past, Kawashima-san went to the TV station to talk about the program, but now, the person who switched to the TV station took the initiative to call Kawashima-san.

Now, the fans who came outside for her have crowded the place...

"Seng Gao!" The manager Kawashima finished reporting what happened before, and suddenly raised his voice to call her name.

Moritaka Chisato was taken aback, and quickly straightened up, "Yes, Kawashima-san."

Chuan Dao showed a kind smile, and told her firmly, "The audience who came today is twice as large as expected, so, in return for the performance later, you have to put in three times as much effort. Now it is A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

"Yes, I understand." Moritaka Chisato nodded vigorously and took a deep breath.

After a while, the staff came over and called Chisato Moritaka to play.She followed Kawashima out of the lounge and went to the makeshift stage.

Before he could walk over, he saw the crowd of spectators who surrounded this floor like an iron barrel.And the audience who saw her appear made a commotion that wanted to cheer but tried their best to restrain themselves.

That unreal feeling suddenly became real, Moritaka Chisato really felt that these people came for her.

She walked onto the temporary stage, bowed vigorously, and when she straightened up, she was smiling all over her face, "Hello everyone, I am Chisato Moritaka, thank you for coming today."

What responded to her was twice as much enthusiasm from the audience as expected.Kato was in it, felt the enthusiasm from the surroundings, and really felt that more and more people liked Chisato Moritaka.

……

There are both fans like Kato who have followed Moritaka Chisato from the very beginning, and there are also fans who have known her from TV performances or other channels after the release of this single and then fell in love with Moritaka Chisato.

After Kawabata Yoshiichiro's article came out, some people were aroused memories of the past, some people resonated with the golden age he described, and some people simply wanted to enjoy music.

No matter what kind it is, attention from all directions is focused on Moritaka Sensato.

After reading the article, I wanted to buy a copy of "17 Years Old" to listen to, but when I went to the record store, it was sold out?It turns out that other people who read the magazine thought the same thing as me?Heroes see the same thing!
I couldn't buy a single, and while I was waiting for the record company to replenish the stock, even the single in the record rental store was in a hurry-it wasn't a popular idol's work, and there weren't many records available for rent.

If you can’t rent it, you have to call the radio station to order. When the radio is broadcast, even people who have not read the article and are not interested in Moritaka Chisato will listen to it. Rhythm and familiar smooth melody, the more you listen to it, the more you will feel it, and more and more people will be drawn into this lineup chasing Chisato Moritaka and her "17 Years Old".

Even the ice cream shop can line up tens of meters, and the Japanese have written their love for following the trend into their bones. As long as a gust of wind blows, it will turn it into a trend.

After enough deliberation, Pioneer Warner felt that the heat was about the same, and finally stopped the appetite of the public, ended the state of small-scale replenishment, and began to formally distribute goods on a large scale.

Then comes the time for the real showdown.
