479. Back on track(1/2)
When people are sick, they even save on social engagements.
During the days when I had a severe cold, Shinichi Iwahashi rarely lived a nine-to-six life like an ordinary office worker. Not only that, when I got home every day, I also had carefully prepared meals waiting.
This kind of small life would be more beautiful if it wasn't for illness.
After dinner, Shinichi Iwahashi took a comfortable bath and turned on the TV.
After nine o'clock, the phone rang. He turned off the TV and picked up the receiver.
"I'm Iwaki."
"Good evening, Shin Yijun."
Shinichi Iwahashi heard who it was, slowing down his tone that was still in business just now, "Akina Sang."
"Good evening," he said.
On the other side of the phone, Akina Nakamori said: "Shinichijun's voice changes so much... Is it true that the cold is very serious?"
During this period, I was asked this time from time to time. Shinichi Iwahashi replied the n+1st time: "It's okay." However, Akina Nakamori's tone obviously knew about his cold before calling.
After thinking about it, he asked, "Did Yukiko tell Akira?"
"Yukiko said, it seems that you have worked hard," she said.
As it turns out, not only will he mention the other person who is not present when chatting with Akina Nakamori and Yukiko Okada respectively, but they will also use him as a topic between them.
This is just right, it's even.
Shin Iwahashi thought it was funny and told her, "Yukiko also told me that Akira's cold has been cured."
"Is that true?" Akina Nakamori also thought it was interesting to make such a sound.
"She probably thought to herself that the colds of these two people were like a relay race." Shinichi Iwahashi joked. When he said this, Akina Nakamori's laughter came from the other side of the phone.
The two were laughing at this wonderful coincidence at both ends of the phone.
Shinichi Iwahashi's throat was so hoarse. He didn't make the phone call for too long. After chatting for a while, Akina Nakamori took the initiative to end the topic, "Shinichikawa should have a good rest."
"I think I should get better next week's cold."
Before hanging up the phone, Shinichi Iwahashi said to her, "Thank you for calling here in person."
"tomorrow."
At this time, Akina Nakamori suddenly said something.
"Tomorrow?" Shinichi Iwahashi was waiting for her next sentence.
After a while, she told Shinichi Iwahashi: "Tomorrow, when Shinichik returns home, remember to check his inbox."
"Okay, remember." Shinichi Iwahashi agreed to her.
The next day, when he got home, he remembered Akina Nakamori's instructions on the phone yesterday and went to check his inbox. As a result, he received a small square package, which was sent by Akina Nakamori.
Is it a reply to the previous letter?
Shin Iwahashi took the package back and opened it and saw it. It contained small things like peppermint cream that relieves the symptoms of cold discomfort. In addition, it also came with a text message.
In the letter, Akina Nakamori carefully wrote the usage and dosage of these small things, indicating that these were all small things that her agent had collected during her severe colds and she thought it was very useful after using them.
"If Shinyijun can feel a little more comfortable, that would be great."
Shinichi Iwahashi felt very comfortable reading this text. He continued to read it. At the end of the letter, Akina Nakamori wrote again: "By the way, this letter is another. The reply to the last letter has not been written yet."
This last postscript made Shinichi Iwahashi laugh.
The meaning of this is that the letter he really needs to reply has not started to be written, so there is no need to reply. However, Shinichi Iwahashi put down the letter paper, thinking that since he received such a thoughtful package, he should thank Akira Nakamori.
However, when he dialed out Akina Nakamori's number, the phone number did not connect. And when the call was returned, it was already the next day.
On the day when the package was sent, Akina Nakamori went to Osaka to record the program. When she returned to Tokyo, it was too late and it was not convenient to call again, so she dragged it until the next night before calling again.
"Although I feel uncomfortable with a cold, I have been living a leisurely life of being able to answer the phone at home at any time at night." Shinichi Iwahashi received the call and heard her go to Osaka and jokingly say.
Akina Nakamori also laughed, "I thought so before, when I had a cold." During the severe cold, it became the most leisurely period of the year she this year.
Shinichi Iwahashi thanked her for the things she gave on the phone, "Mental paste smells refreshing." Although the social event was cancelled, the workload during the day was still there. It was really good to use the things that Akina Nakamori gave when she worked.
"It's good to be able to help Shinichikun." Akina Nakamori said, and suddenly laughed.
Shinichi Iwahashi was a little curious, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing..." Akina Nakamori also joined the team to persecute cats.
Cat lover Shinichi Iwahashi sighed and expressed his strong condemnation, "It's uncomfortable to just say half of it."
"Is that true?" Akina Nakamori took it.
"Actually, it was just because Shin Yijun said 'thank you' to me, and I didn't know what to say." She explained.
"Sorry?" Shinichi Iwahashi was a little puzzled.
She said "hmm", "Because I didn't do anything for Shinyijun..."
"Where do you think?" Iwahashi Shinichi corrected her, "It's worth saying 'thank you' when others need it."
He still insisted on affirming the value of Akina Nakamori and what she did.
"Thank you, Shin-kun." Akina Nakamori felt his considerate and kindness.
This time, Shinichi Iwahashi smiled, "Akinasan, do we want to thank each other so much?"
I was reminded that it seemed that I had indeed become such a situation of thanking each other...
Akina Nakamori came to her senses and couldn't help but smile.
...
As December approached, Shinichi Iwahashi finally let him go, and what he said, "It will be cured next week" did not become a empty talk.
After sending off the difficult cold, the nutritionist introduced by Watanabe Manyumi no longer came to the door. Shinichi Iwahashi had just fallen into the food trap of having a meal, and immediately returned to the bachelor's life who used to be either eating outside or making some simple meals by himself.
The gap was so big that he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "It's great to have money."
In the morning, Shinichi Iwahashi put on a suit and went out to welcome the new day, and he was more motivated.
make money!
As soon as he recovered his spirit, he moved closer to him again in the production company and record company he had transferred. During this period, he was waiting for him to return the cancelled meetings and social events.
On December 1st, the contract signed by u-miz and local broadcasting bureaus officially took effect, and commercial radio began to promote the "Future Prediction Picture Ii" of Dreamsetrue.
Before the release entity was released, we started playing songs on the radio. There were also no objections to the record company and the firm regarding this inverted promotional method.
Even if the physical single is to be released, the company will try to avoid choosing seven and a half minutes of songs as a side song. Now, canceling a physical single is also a loss of single income.
No matter from which perspective, this project is willful and bold.
The entire plan can be carried out according to Shinichi Iwahashi's plan, thanks to Watanabe's full support. Otherwise, if this uncontrollable tossing method would never be played with him like this if he had a boss.
In addition to the support of Manyumi Watanabe, the record company CBS Sony also has Kazuo Hirai helps to speak in the band's production team.
Hirai's idea is not complicated at all, or he is a bit too simple and unconventional publicity plan. If it is really implemented, what will happen and what will the public respond? These make him curious.
Besides, Shinichi Iwahashi, who is famous for his contradictory tunes with tradition, felt trust in Shinichi Iwahashi on one side, and on the other side, he also regarded this publicity plan as a guinea pig for observation.
However, no matter what it is for, as long as you get support when the plan is implemented, it doesn’t matter whether it is a white cat or a black cat.
The publicity funds are spent and the contract takes effect. The firm has specially formulated two specialists for this publicity plan, responsible for maintaining contact with radio stations from all over the country and paying attention to the publicity effects feedback from the radio station.
After that, the data will be sorted out and reported at the regular meetings on Mondays in the next four weeks.
With such close attention, you can also feel their nervousness about the plan.
Compared to the various concerns of the black-clad men behind the scenes, Miwa-chan is obviously more relaxed.
She has never had any objection to what to do in terms of publicity. She is only responsible for writing songs and carrying rats. All the others show that they are not related to themselves.
However, when she learned that she had contacted a nationwide broadcasting bureau for broadcasting, she specifically confirmed with Shinichi Iwahashi, "So, will Sapporo broadcasting be broadcasting?"
"Of course." Shinichi Iwahashi gave a positive answer.
Miwa-chan was full of thoughts, "This is a song written when I was in Sapporo."... Sapporo people will definitely like it.
"And it was written in my father's car." Shinichi Iwahashi revealed her old background.
Miwa-chan rarely cares about him, "I told my family that the band will be on the Red and White Song Festival this year. My father is very happy, and my mother also said that she would promote us when attending the Kamachi party."
The Yoshida family in Hokkaido has a harmonious relationship. It is because they were born in a family that never lacks warmth and laughter that they could nurture Miwa-chan.
Just like Shizuoka's family, who couldn't even make a quarrel, raised two siblings in Iwagaki.
After all, even if he told his family that he was going to participate in the Red and White Song Festival, he would be very likely to say something seriously and cold, using his father Iwahashi Kazumi's special speaking skills:
"The person under the hood can't see his face. If I go out and tell others, it would be bad if I'm going to brag."
However, even if you brag, there is nothing to brag about playing a giraffe man.
...
After the cold was cured, Shinichi Iwahashi contacted Hiroyuki Narita and rescheduled the dinner that had been forced to cancel before.
The business was discussed in the industry, and Asoko Iwahashi did not show up. Shinichi Iwahashi and Manyumi Watanabe met Narita Hiroyuki at a restaurant in Minami Aoyama together.
