The fat young man did what he said, and immediately called Toshihiko Takamizawa.

People in the entertainment industry have always been fascinated by the intersection of relationships.Artists from the same company may only meet face-to-face at company parties, but if they love nightlife, it is very easy to have unexpected friendships.

Similarly, if there is a friend with a wide range of contacts, then it will be a matter of time to get to know people from all walks of life through him——

When Iwahashi Shinichi and the fat young man went to the next store and met Takamizawa Toshihiko, there were two other people drinking at the same table besides Takamizawa Toshihiko.

One is the producer of Boli Jiayin, whose surname is Gutian.As for the other one, it is Tetsuya Komuro of TM NETWORK.Takamizawa Toshihiko and Komuro Tetsuya, this combination is also fresh, as if confirming the phrase "unexpected friendship".

Although there is a feeling that Takamizawa Toshihiko and Komuro Tetsuya are not of the same era, in fact, Takamizawa Toshihiko is only four years older than Komuro Tetsuya, and although TM NETWORK debuted in 1984, it is a full ten years later than THE ALFEE , but earlier in 1979, Tetsuya Komuro made his debut as a member of the band SPEEDWAY. After the disbandment of SPEEDWAY, he reorganized TM NETWORK and started the golden period of creation.

"Ah, Akimoto-kun and Iwahashi-kun are here." Takamizawa Toshihiko raised his head.After drinking some wine, he gave Iwahashi Shinichi a more bewildered sense of "who am I and where am I?"

Set off by him, Tetsuya Komuro sitting on the other side looked more chic and shrewd.

The same beautiful person in the band, Takamizawa Toshihiko is like a girl who fell from the sky, but Komuro Tetsuya is hard to make people associate with "girl" or "queen".

"This is Iwahashi-san... first time meeting." Komuro Tetsuya nodded at him as a greeting.

When DREAMS COME TRUE participated in the Red and White Song Concert for the first time, they were assigned to the same lounge as TM NETWORK.However, it is not bad to say that it is the first meeting.

Yanqiao Shenyi replied politely, "Xiaomuro-san, I have heard you famous for a long time."

Hearing what he said, Komuro Tetsuya smiled, "In that case, I'm just about to say it here."

The two people were polite to each other, but Gutian, the producer of Polly Jiayin, listened to the politeness of the two people, and said with a smile: "Since both sides think so, then the meeting tonight, isn't it Right?"

He knew Toshihiko Takamizawa the best, so he made fun of him, "Mr. Takamizawa, you did it beautifully."

"However, Akimoto-kun made the call." Takamizawa Toshihiko didn't take credit for it.

The ball was thrown into Akimoto Yasushi's hands, but the fat young man didn't say anything more, just picked up the wine glass with a smile.

Indeed, as a composer, Tetsuya Komuro has provided songs for famous singers or idols one after another, and has also undertaken the soundtrack work of many large-scale film and television dramas. As a composer, he has been widely recognized in the industry.

However, Shinichi Iwahashi is obviously more famous than the famous producer who ushered in a new era.

Although Iwahashi Shinichi didn't know whether Komuro Tetsuya was speaking politely, his phrase "I've heard the name for a long time" was not just casually polite.

A long time ago, he had suggested Nakamori Akina that he could try to cooperate with Komuro Tetsuya if he had the opportunity.This composer made "new music" and brought something new to the music world.

When the chubby young man finished his phone call and mentioned that "Tetsuya Komuro from TM NETWORK is also here", on the way here, Shinichi Iwahashi was very interested in getting acquainted with this new composer.

……

Tonight, Tetsuya Komuro and Toshihiko Takamizawa did not meet by chance, but agreed to meet in advance.Recently, the two of them have met a lot, and they often sit together and have a drink.

THE ALFEE debuted in 1974. Among the bands that are still active today, they are not only veterans, but the relationship between the three members is also maintained quite well.Moreover, it is completely consistent with the band's style line and so on.

For the band, there are really not many that can have such stability.

But if I really want to say, apart from none of the members having that kind of sharp personality, an important reason is that there is only one person in THE ALFEE who has the talent to be selected, and that is Toshihiko Takamizawa.

The band, which has been unknown for many years, began their glorious era after starting the new system and using Toshihiko Takamizawa's lyrics and music extensively. The band's famous song "Marian" is Toshihiko Takamizawa's masterpiece. Since then, every hit song of the band is born , must have been written by Toshihiko Takamizawa.

But TM NETWORK is different.In the band, Takashi Utsunomiya has a stronger sense of presence than Tetsuya Komuro, but Tetsuya Komuro, as a composer, has gained more attention in the world.When the talents of more than one person in the band mature and each has its own ideas, the band can only stagnate.

However, the temptation to explore new areas makes it difficult for people to be content with just being "a member of TM NETWORK".

Komuro Tetsuya thinks highly of himself, and a musician who can be admired by him must have the talent he recognizes.Just when you are in high spirits, you don't bother to say flattering words.What's more, the other party is still a young man who is seven or eight years younger than himself.

Tonight, he said to Iwahashi Shinichi, "I've heard the name for a long time", it was not out of politeness.

Even though it was the first time they met, and it was the first time they sat drinking together, Tetsuya Komuro was no stranger to this name.Not only is he not unfamiliar, but he has long wanted to meet him, to see what kind of character this legendary producer is, such an idea.If he didn't really want to see him, when Takamizawa Toshihiko received a call from Akimoto Yasushi, Komuro Tetsuya offered to leave first.

At the beginning of the year, BURNING successfully acquired the production company BEING, and established VERMILLION Records, which focuses on the band.Takahiro Matsumoto, who has a friendship with TM NETWORK and used to be the band's concert team, and his band B'z also transferred the contract to this newly established record company.

Before joining the BURNING department, B'z had already started to emerge.With the resource support of the BURNING department, the band has become even more powerful, and has entered the fast lane in one fell swoop, and is now a popular band.

Looking at it this way, BURNING's plan against BEING can be called a success just by getting a B'z.

However, BURNING chose BEING, and Komuro Tetsuya introduced it to Baba Shunichi, hoping to introduce him to Zhou Fang Yuxiong, and Abex DD, who was helped by the BURNING department, was blocked from the door.

Compared with being established ten years ago, and having some elite soldiers under him, BEING, who has caught up with the trend of the band era and has rich experience in making bands, of course Avex DD is insignificant.

The company has just been established. The founder is a young man who sells imported records and has no production experience. His goal after establishing the company is to take over the distribution rights of the Eurobeat series in Japan and pick up the already outdated music in Japan. thing.

Under the tide of bands sweeping the industry, such a small company with such a goal seems quite ridiculous.

With a ready-made stove in BEING, Zhou Fangyuxiong, who loves to pick delicious peaches cultivated by others, of course would not set his sights on this seedling.

In anyone's opinion, choosing the former between BEING and Abex·DD is extremely correct.

……

However, how could Nagato Taiko be comparable to Iwahashi Shinichi?

After drinking two cups, the atmosphere of the few people who met for the first time gradually became lively.Komuro Tetsuya has long been interested in Iwahashi Shinichi, and Iwahashi Shinichi is not the kind of person who is difficult to get close to. Coupled with the quick-witted Akimoto Yasushi, there is no need to worry about the atmosphere becoming hot.

After drinking two cups together, the producer Gutian of Boli Jiayin went home, and the scene became Shinichi Iwahashi and the fat young man, the two behind-the-scenes men in black and two beautiful BANDMANs drinking together.

Tetsuya Komuro was chatting with Shinichi Iwahashi, but such a thought flashed through his mind involuntarily.How could Nagato Taiko, a guy who would only follow behind others, be compared with this shrewd and restrained young man.

However, he also knew clearly in his heart what was the real reason why he came up with such an idea.

I think so, not because Nagato Taiyuki joined the BURNING department and disturbed Tetsuya Komuro's plan, so I have prejudice against Nagato Taiyuki, but because of my calm observation during this period of time.

Without the help of the BURNING department, Katsuto Matsuura and his Abex DD could not take a substantial step forward.As a result, Komuro Tetsuya's interest in Avex DD, or that young man Matsuura Masato also faded.

In order to realize his ambition, it becomes unrealistic to hang out with a guy who has no prospects and no strong support.

But if VERMILLION Records can work, he can also switch to VERMILLION Records, still with the support of the BURNING Department, to realize his ambition step by step.

However, the first work released by VERMILLION Records is to imitate REV composed of ZARD.

At the same time, Shinichi Iwahashi of GENZO let out the wind and wanted to participate in the production of a solo singer.

The era of bands was in full bloom, and various record companies launched various bands one after another. GENZO, who led this new trend, gained a firm foothold in the industry by first launching bands, and even joined the Record Association.Not only that, after gaining a firm foothold, instead of eating endlessly with the band's specialty, they chose to open up new markets.

Only when he can do this can he see his ability.

Tetsuya Komuro really admired Shinichi Iwahashi's vision and determination.

Not only that, but I also admire his good way of being able to associate with popular female stars.

Although at first glance, this young man has a steady, seemingly puzzled face, and seems to be a somewhat boring person.But when Tetsuya Komuro thought that he was also this young man, and his girlfriend was the most fashionable female star in the industry, he couldn't really regard him as an incomprehensible guy.

From Tetsuya Komuro's point of view, Shinichi Iwahashi exudes a mysterious charm because of his relationship with Akina Nakamori - one can't help but wonder if there is another face behind that seemingly incomprehensible face face.

Having said that, the relationship between Shinichi Iwahashi and Akina Nakamori is well known to everyone, and the two even joined hands to participate in the show.Talented man and beautiful woman, Tetsuya Komuro, as a bystander, is quite envious.

Not only that, but he was still thinking in his heart that the gossip between Shinichi Iwahashi and Momoko Kikuchi would be more interesting if it was true.

Once, Tetsuya Komuro heard from Shunichi Baba that BURNING’s president Shuo initially preferred the record company to be GENZO, and tried to negotiate with Shinichi Iwahashi and his partners, but ultimately failed.

Tetsuya Komuro recalled this piece of information, and it was a pity.

For a character like Shinichi Iwahashi, if he can get the assistance of the BURINNG department, he will definitely be even more powerful.But thinking about it the other way around, it is precisely because he is a character like a dragon and a tiger that he will not fall to one side.

Such a person, such a person with such a long-term vision, if you chat with him about "the future music world, high-speed dance music will show its skills", presumably, you can also hear some interesting insights from him.

Of course, when we met for the first time, we only drank a few glasses of wine together, and Tetsuya Komuro could not lose his composure, revealing his ambition that he regarded as a treasure in his heart.However, while admiring Shinichi Iwahashi, I also hope to have a deeper relationship with him.

……

When parting, Iwahashi Shinichi, Takamizawa Toshihiko and Komuro Tetsuya exchanged contact information.After drinking all night, he was dizzy. When he got home and turned on the light, he immediately experienced the feeling of "instant wakefulness".

The coquettish ghost Kenta rushed to the entrance when he heard the noise, and circled around him, wagging his short tail quickly, for some reason, there was a trace of flattery.

At this time, he was a little drunk again, so let's just go out for a walk.

The fat young man's bad idea succeeded, and it really messed up Kenta's good things.However, getting to know Tetsuya Komuro and having a few extra glasses of wine tonight is worth it.

Iwahashi Shinichi bent down, touched the puppy's head, went to change clothes, and prepared to take a bath... Then, when he entered the living room, he saw Kenta's "masterpiece", a dog map carefully drawn in the middle of the living room.

I really want to ask Kenta's mother if this dog has ever done something like this when he was at her house.

It's a pity that that Taopu star is still on a business trip.

A puppy who has done something bad knows that it is wrong.So, from the time he entered the door, he circled around him, looking like a guilty conscience.Now, when they arrived at the scene of the crime, they ran to Yanqiao Shenyi's feet to test him.

I have to say that he is indeed clever and can read his face.

Yanqiao Shenyi trained the dog with a straight face, but he still had to clean up the mess for him.While tidying up, I thought in my heart that next time I will take Kenta to the fat young man's house as a guest, let Asamiko Takai see this cute puppy, and take this opportunity to encourage her to get one too.

……

After a brief meeting with Takamizawa Toshihiko and Komuro Tetsuya, within a few days, Komuro Tetsuya took the initiative to call Iwahashi Shinichi.Yanqiao Shinichi was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the arrogant genius would actually have such a proactive side.

However, for Tetsuya Komuro's invitation, after a little confirmation of the itinerary, he still agreed.
