105. Blockbuster(1/2)

(Two chapters and one chapter)

When a music critic was evaluating Keiko Terada, he said, "Girl, you are such a man!"

However, after watching Joan Jett's performance and leaving the scene from the relationship channel, Shinichi Iwahashi thought, if he was the one who wrote a music review after watching, he would have to add a sentence, "Girl, you are such a man's uncle!"

Cowhide is not bragging, and Mount Tai is not piled up.

The level of Joan Jet's live performance is that among female rock musicians, the small group does not even have to reserve this room for anti-slap in the face.

After watching her scene, while impressed, Shin Iwahashi immediately compared the live performance level of Japanese female rock musicians.

There is no way, love is born from humans.

Then, he confirmed in his heart the excellence of Japanese female rock musicians, believing that they were not inferior to her.

To be precise, compared to winning or losing, it is better to say that each has its own advantages and has their own unique stage charm. Joan Jett is a big rock star, but the performances with her are also excellent musicians with excellent standards and distinctive styles like Show-ya, Hamada Mari, and Nokko.

Self-reflection gave Iwahashi Shinichi's confidence to negotiate.

What is true self-confidence?

He neither admires foreigners nor belittles himself, nor does he rely on belittle others to uplift himself.

Before leaving the martial arts hall and making an appointment to visit, Shinichi Iwahashi found a telephone booth first, called Joan Jeter's agent, confirmed what he was going to visit after confirming that he was going to stop the taxi.

Shinichi Iwahashi went bare-chested and was about to argue with Joan Jet. But when he finally saw the master, he found that he had miscalculated the situation. It was not him who beat him, but Joan Jet.

Yes, Joan Jet is enjoying killing chickens with horses, and Shinichi Iwahashi can still see the tattoo on her arm at this moment.

Talk about things while enjoying killing a horse and chicken? OK.

The staff who brought him up to greet Joan Jet, was enough to think about it in his mind that if Japan had tattooed his arm like this, he might have been turned away from the hot springs and public bathrooms.

Of course, she has money and can book a place.

At this time, Joan Jet turned his face, raised his eyes and looked at him without prejudice or disgust, as if a child was looking at something new that he had never seen before.

Then, "Hello." She raised the corner of her mouth.

It was this smile. It was exactly the same as when she was discharged on stage.

This reminded Shinichi Iwahashi again of his terrible experience of watching the performance just now, and he took the initiative to speak: "I came from the concert venue."

"Thanks."

"The performance is very exciting, but my viewing experience is very unpleasant," said Shinichi Iwahashi. "Because I happen to be sitting in the so-called area that needs to behave appropriately."

"I thought to myself, this experience was really terrible, so I decided to set up a music festival that would drive me out of my decent behavior and let me release myself."

Joan Jet looked at him, "I've heard that you're planning a music festival."

"Yes." Shinichi Iwahashi replied, "a music festival that has never been seen in Japan, with an all-female rock lineup."

“It sounds cool,” she said. “But why do you want to hold a music festival that only women attend?”

"I was the agent of an underground band before. It is said that successful agents have a keen eye for excellence and can also promote excellence to the world."

"There are excellent female rock musicians in this country, but they lack the necessary attention. I know their excellence, and then I think that outside this country, there are more excellent female rock musicians, so I hope there is a way to make more people look here and on female rock."

"I feel like you're boasting about yourself." Joan Jet blinked, "Are you a successful agent?"

Shinichi Iwahashi said calmly, "If you come to the performance, at least you can confirm whether my vision is excellent at the music festival. But that's only half of it."

"Other half, if I can mobilize you to participate in the performance and the music festival is successfully held, so that the other half will show everyone's excellence to the world, and this will be 100%.

"So, whether you are truly successful depends on my choice?" Joan Jett seemed to have discovered something fun, like a child suddenly realized that the switch in his hand could decide whether the signal light turns red or turns green.

"Yes, you're so important," said Shinichi Iwahashi. "It's true for everyone, including me who came to lobby."

"Interesting." Joan Jet smiled.

After laughing, she asked, "Why did you think of letting me go to the show?"

"Because you bring a kind of hope that is exactly what Japanese female rock lacks." Shinichi Iwahashi said, "The field of female rock has you in the world, but in Japan, but lacks people like you."

"You mean business achievements?"

"You have excellent business achievements. In Japan, you do lack the successful female rock in business. But what I value is because you have practiced it and given female rock guidance and hope to fight forward."

"..." Joan Jett didn't answer, but it seemed that these words touched her.

Shinichi Iwahashi appropriately incited, "The field of rock has always been dominated by men. In this case, women who love rock and are willing to treat it as career pick up musical instruments, stand on the stage, sing songs in their hearts, and show themselves in prejudice is not cool enough or rock enough?"

"It's just rock," said Joan Jett.

Isn't she like this? She has longed for and loved rock music since she was a child, but she is surrounded by boys forming bands. As the lead singer and sometimes as a musician, she is mingling in these bands.

Why can’t female rock succeed? Where is the lack of female rock?

Joan Jett couldn't understand the answer to this question, so he decided to form a band with only girls, and then spend his whole life looking for the answer to this question.

"You are so cool, so rock. And now, I want to gather women like you from different countries to perform, pick up musical instruments, stand on stage, sing the songs in my heart, and show myself. Isn't this cool?"

"It's so cool." She asked and agreed as if she was being held by Shinichi Iwahashi's nose.

Until now, she has not figured out the answer to this question. However, she has discovered an important thing, that is, this field is not a field that women cannot challenge, because she is a living example of success.

"So...you're not coming to join us? Be the coolest one."

Joan Jeter paused, thought for a while, and looked at him, "You have a good way of talking... Rock?"

"My name is Shinichi." Shinichi Iwahashi introduced himself again.

I have to say that foreigners with deep outlines have indeed charming eyes and cannot envy their racial talent.

"Okay...Shenyi?" Joan Jett repeated, asking, "Will you hold a very grand music festival?"

"Of course." Shinichi Iwahashi replied with great affirmation, "If you want to confirm, I have also brought relevant information."

"Compared to confirming the information..." Joan Jett invited Shinichi Iwahashi, "Shenichi, are you going to the bar to sit in a seat later? By the way, we can talk about this music festival."

Having been able to hold a second meeting, Shinichi Iwahashi seemed to see the victory of the little red flag fluttering in the wind, and immediately agreed, "Of course."

After a while, Joan Jet's horse kills the chicken to the end. Shinichi Iwahashi waited in the living room for a while, waiting for her to finish the decoration.

This time, there was neither the Japanese masseur who was silently killing chickens next to him nor the staff around Joan Jet. The two of them talked about the music festival while drinking some wine.

"Tomorrow, will you still go to the martial arts hall? Shinyi."

Shinichi Iwahashi thought for a while, "I can try to buy a ticket on site. If I buy it successfully, go in. However, even if I can't buy a ticket outside the Budou Hall and the person who didn't buy the tickets, I don't want to sit in the seat like today."

"Okay...I look forward to you going to the show." Joan Jett thought for a while, and said to him again, "If you can't buy the tickets, you can listen to the missing sound and cheer with everyone outside. After that, I will tell you my answer."

Do you have to do the task first if you know the answer? Iwahashi Shinichi thought, but he still agreed first.

I bowed all seventy-two times, and I was not afraid of this tremor.

The next day, at the office, Watanabe Manyumi called him over and asked him, "How is the progress?"

Shinichi Iwahashi told her the strange request of Joan Jett, and said with a wry smile: "I had known it, I would have booked my tickets before the show started."

Wanyumi Watanabe smiled, "What's the hard way?" she prepared to get the phone.

When Shinichi Iwahashi saw him, he reminded: "If it's a seat for a relationship, it's fine. I agreed to Joan Jett and I. If I can't buy an ordinary seat, I will go outside and listen to the missing sound."

Not only for keeping the promise, but also for himself.

If you sit in the relationship pedestal and listen to rock, you will come to it a few more times. You won’t suffocate people to death or kill them.

"Don't worry." Watanabe Manyumi's hand was still on the earpiece.

After saying this, she picked up the receiver, dialed the phone, gave a few instructions. She hung up the phone and said to Shinichi Iwahashi: "I'll ask someone to buy a ticket for you for a normal seat."

"Thank you, I deserve to be the boss." Shinichi Iwahashi said.

Watanabe Manyumi made him laugh so hard when she screamed. I don’t know where she hit her laugh point.

The domineering president is reliable. In the afternoon, Watanabe Manyumi Secretary sent the ticket for today. Shinichi Iwahashi took the ticket, counting the time, packing up his things to listen to the concert.

The tickets given by Watanabe Manyumi were very good, in the middle. Shinichi Iwahashi sat down and it was fifteen minutes away from the show. When he saw a brief look at the venue, he saw that there were all over the crowd, and it must be full of seats.

On his left is a very quiet girl. Just looking at her appearance, it is probably more like she appears in a piano concert than listening to Joan Jet.

People should not behave like appearance.

The seat on his right hand was still empty, and Shinichi Iwahashi thought to himself, not knowing what kind of person would be sitting here.

There were still ten minutes left, and there were still late spectators entering the venue in groups of three or three. People on the passage came up and down. At this time, a young woman came over while looking for a seat.

She wore sunglasses and dressed very fashionable. To be precise, it is completely different from the popularity of ordinary girls nowadays. However, although that outfit, although not as trendy as it is, it just feels very fashionable, fashionable and self-developed.

"How could it be her?!" Shinichi Iwahashi saw her coming, and recognized her at first sight, and was shocked.

The young woman sat down on his right hand, tidied up her clothes, and had not taken off her sunglasses. Shinichi Iwahashi was very surprised, but he refused to talk to her.

When she met unexpectedly, she obviously came in casual clothes again, and it was a bit rude to startle her rashly.

At this time, the lights in the venue dim and the performance is about to begin!

As if the boiling water was boiling, and the rising tide began to stir up, and the audience stood up one after another. Shinichi Iwahashi also stood up, and the young woman next to her also took off her sunglasses and stood up.

At this moment, everyone was looking at the stage ahead, and no one was willing to give a little attention to check the people around them.

Even Shinichi Iwahashi didn't take the opportunity to turn around to confirm his judgment just now.
To be continued...
