Chapter 258 257, More and More Like a Celebrity Secretly Dating
Akina Nakamori's award gave Naoki Nagayama a reason to stay.
He did not slip away, but returned to the table in the middle of the field.
Seeing Naoki Nagayama return to his seat, Yoshimura Otomo was very surprised:
"Naoki-san, didn't you want to slip away? Why are you back again?"
Nagayama Naoki said righteously: "Otomo-san, don't talk nonsense. Even if we are good friends, I will sue you for defamation if you say that! I just went out to breathe fresh air."
Yoshimura Otomo made an expression as if he saw something dirty: "Naoki-san, can you speak properly?"
"Hahaha, tell the truth, Junko-chan~"
Nagayama Naoki also hopes to pull Ito Junko to the same front, but Ito Junko will not foolishly jump into the trap at this time. One is the county magistrate and the other is the current governor. Both cannot be offended, so she can only cover her mouth and laugh secretly.
The special award for judges won by Akina Nakamori is not as good as the gold and silver awards, but it is also an official award in the music industry. Looking at the smile on her face, you can tell how happy she is.
However, there was no need to perform on stage this time. Akina walked down directly after receiving the medal. When passing by Naoki Nagayama's table, she shook the medal in her hand at Naoki Nagayama.
"Such a small award is so happy." Naoki Nagayama shook his head, and then he heard the name of Junko Ito announced on the stage again.
"What, they won two awards?"
Yoshimura Otomo said beside him: "This time it's the debut song "パズル" (Puzzle)."
It turns out that different songs will win different awards~
The grand prize of this year's Ginza Music Festival, "Grand Pix", was won by Johnny's Shibuya Team. Seeing these three people, Naoyama Naoki instantly thought of why the three members of the Boys Team had no chance. It turned out that the same group was blocking the way in front.
It's a pity. Naoyama Naoki is still very optimistic about the three members of the Boys Team. Or, continue to work with them? Promote the Boys Team?
It feels quite interesting~
After the award ceremony, there was a dinner party, but before the dinner party, there was a short media meeting for the winning singers, where the winning singers walked in front one by one, and then the reporters asked them various questions.
The whole process was actually very fast and cruel. The popular singers had constant problems, and the unpopular singers just went through the motions and didn't even have the chance to say "Are there any scandals to ask me?"
The singers also took the opportunity to promote their next plans in front of the microphone, such as the next song. Of course, Junko Ito also took the stage, and because she and Akina Nakamori won the award one after the other, the order of meeting was unexpectedly arranged one after the other.
"Ms. Junko Ito, what do you think about both songs winning awards this time?"
"Hey, I am very grateful to the Ginza Music Festival for giving me such an opportunity this time, and I also thank the judges for their praise." These are all official polite words. Junko Ito is not even breathing now, but then, "I also want to thank the creator of the two songs, Naoki Nagayama, for letting me sing the two songs."
"Are both songs written by Naoki Nagayama?" In fact, the reporter knew the answer, he just wanted to hear it from the singer's mouth, so that it would be news.
"Hey, both songs are."
"If it's Naoki Nagayama, is he the musician known as the 'lonely genius'?"
A reporter asked further, which made Junko Ito unable to answer for a while. Is it a good title? She subconsciously looked in the direction of Naoki Nagayama in the crowd, and the sharp-eyed reporters noticed it immediately.
"Is Mr. Naoki Nagayama here today?"
As she said this, some cameras were directed at Naoki Nagayama who was watching the excitement in the crowd. A series of photos were taken, and the continuous flash made Naoki Nagayama unable to open his eyes.
Fortunately, she was not the interviewee, so the reporters did not continue to ask questions, but asked about the next song.
"Ms. Ito Junko, is the next song also composed by Naoki Nagayama?"
The previous episode frightened her boss, and Ito Junko now felt a little apologetic: "Ah, no, the next song is "Snowy Night", which was composed by Mr. Horita Keita."
The reporters lost interest in the unknown musician, and after Ito Junko stepped down, they began to ask about the next one, Akina Nakamori.
"Ms. Akina Nakamori, I heard that "Girl A" has entered the top ten of the charts. What do you think?"
"Ah, such a result is unimaginable for me. It's like a dream." It seems that when Akina is asked about her feelings, she talks about dreams.
"So are the new songs ready?" Routine question.
"Hi, the name of the next song is "Second Love", which is a song about love. It has been recorded and will be released at the end of the month. I hope everyone will support it!"
"Well, the name of "Second Love" makes people curious. May I ask which musician created it?" A reporter asked as usual, and secretly praised it. It seems that it is a media with a good relationship with Kenon.
Akina Nakamori was a little flustered at this time. She also saw the small commotion caused by Naoki Nagayama in the backstage before, but it seemed that she couldn't help but say it: "Ah, the author of this song is Mr. Naoki Nagayama."
Eh? News is coming! ! ! This word came to the minds of the reporters present.
The next song by Junko Ito is not, but the next song by Akina Nakamori is actually a song by Naoki Nagayama. Coupled with the ambiguous name like Second Love, reporters with rich brains have already written a song in one second. It’s an annual drama about love and affection.
This time, most of the cameras turned around, and the flashes clicked continuously. Naoki Nagayama, who had just recovered, saw that his eyes really turned into a vast expanse of white. It was so clean.
How do those celebrities keep their eyes open under the flash?
If the interview subjects did not include people in the audience, those reporters would have rushed off the stage to grab Naoki Nagayama. But when they wanted to continue the interview with Akina Nakamori, they found that Akina Nakamori had already run away, and the next singer to be awarded had already come on stage. .
At this time, Nakamori Akina was patting her chest in the background and was very nervous, and Naoki-san was actually involved.
Before the interview was over, Naoki Nagayama quickly took Yoshimura Otomo and ran to a corner to hide in order to avoid being approached by reporters. He also brought a stack of snacks for dinner.
"Haha, Naoki-san, suddenly became the headlines." Yoshimura Otomo smiled unkindly while biting into the cake.
"How could it be such a coincidence?" Regarding such a thing, he could only shake his head helplessly, "If nothing happens, we will prepare to go back."
"If you go out now, there will definitely be a bunch of paparazzi waiting to take pictures of celebrities."
It looked like he was stuck. Nagayama Naoki was helplessly eating snacks, so he could only wait until most of the artists left before talking.
The dinner went very smoothly. The organizer prepared a lot of delicious food, which made everyone in attendance very satisfied. However, many popular artists, such as Matsuda Seiko, left after showing up. They would either have shows or perform with music next. The boss behind the festival has a dinner party, and of course such a dinner party has nothing to do with the new idol.
However, during this process, Akina Nakamori started a live broadcast in the lobby because of the program invitation. After all, the people present were all people in the entertainment industry. I heard that it is still a popular broadcast program like "BEST TEN", so everyone can actually They all understood and gave some space.
Akina Nakamori, who won the award, was very happy and couldn't help laughing during the interview, and then sang the popular "Girl A" in the hall.
Naoki Nagayama watched Akina singing freely in a hall full of people and couldn't help but praise her.
It's really amazing that such a temporary performance can be so stable!
"Akina-chan, you sing very well~"
When the live broadcast ended and Akina Nakamori was also getting snacks from the dining table, Naoki Nagayama walked to the side.
"Ah, Naoki-san Arigado!" Akina thanked her with a smile, and then said sheepishly, "I think you just caused trouble to Naoki-san."
"It's okay, it's just a scandal~" Nagayama Naoki didn't care, "It's just time to advertise the new song, hahaha~"
"I also saved a lot of advertising fees, hahaha~" Akina Nakamori became happy again. The little girl was very happy tonight.
Thinking that Akina Nakamori was still sick, Naoki Nagayama asked: "Akina-chan, you said you were sick before, how do you feel now?"
"I want to say it's okay, but I'm still a little dizzy after taking the medicine. Although I haven't eaten dinner, I have no appetite." If she were facing her manager Yasushi Okawa, Akina would definitely say that she would stick to the tape, but Naoki-san When I asked about it, I felt that my illness seemed to be getting worse.
"This is what a cold is like. Is Akina-chan's throat inflamed?"
"It doesn't seem like anything. Nothing happened when I sang."
At this moment, Nagayama Naoki almost came out with the words "drink more hot water".
Alas, as a straight man, he only had this idea of what he should do at this time.
Watching Akina Nakamori stuff the cake into her mouth bit by bit, Naoki Nagayama suddenly thought:
"Akina-chan, you won't have to go to work tomorrow, right?"
"Ah, yes, there are still schedules for tomorrow," Akina Nakamori said with a bitter look on her face, "I haven't rested for a long time."
Can't you rest even if you are sick? For the first time, Nagayama Naoki felt the bitterness of an idol artist. Looking at Akina's side face, he felt full of pity:
"Akina-chan, don't push yourself too hard. It's okay to take a break when needed."
Hearing such comforting words and seeing Nagayama Naoki's warm eyes, Akina's nose felt sour, she felt tears starting to secrete in her eyes, and she almost cried.
She quickly turned her head, covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and after sorting herself out, she said sheepishly: "Private Marseille, I feel like I have a serious cold. Naoki-san needs to stay away, otherwise it will be contagious~"
In the second half of the sentence, it turned into a strong joke.
However, Nagayama Naoki smiled at this time: "It's serious, it's serious, okay~ Then Akina-chan can ask for leave openly!"
"Eh?" Akina's face was a little confused and a little entangled, "But the office has already made a schedule."
"What kind of job is it?"
"Ah, it's rehearsals for the Shinjuku Music Festival and outdoor shooting."
"Push him away!" Nagayama Naoki said firmly, "Akina-san doesn't need to rehearse this kind of thing. Even in the crowd just now, Akina-san sang a hundred times better than the people on the stage; outdoors The shooting time can be re-scheduled. If Akina is not in good condition, she won’t be able to produce good results.”
"But...that was decided by the firm."
"Take off the tape, after all, it's because of illness~" Naoki Nagayama was still encouraging, "Just tell your agent that you feel your condition has suddenly worsened."
Such a bad student's behavior made Akina Nakamori a little hesitant, and since her debut, she has never asked for leave.
Naoki Nagayama knew Akina Nakamori's position in the agency in the future, so this kind of small matter would certainly not be a big deal, and those two jobs were not actually very important jobs.
"Akina-chan, taking care of yourself is also a necessary element to fulfill your dream!"
One is that she was a little weak psychologically due to a cold, and the other is that there are bad guys like Naoki Nagayama encouraging her, so Akina Nakamori slowly came up with the idea of asking for leave, and she became more and more determined.
Naoki Nagayama watched Akina walk to the side of her agent Okawa Yasuji, and then explained that her condition had worsened and she was weak all over, and she also coughed twice in a pretentious manner, and then saw Okawa Yasuji hurriedly call to reschedule the schedule.
After Akina came over, her face was still full of excitement after she lied.
"Naoki-san, it's all your fault!!!"
If you put the blame on others, you will feel less guilty.
"Hey, hey, it's all the bad guy Naoki who has led Akina-sama astray~" Naoki Nagayama said in a funny way, making Akina laugh again, "Akina-chan, since you've told a lie once, tell another one next time~"
"Huh?"
"Tell the agent to go back and rest early. When we get home, after the agent leaves, I'll take you to eat hot pot!"
"Huh?!!"
"I have a cold, wouldn't it be nice to have a hot pot?"
"But can't you eat spicy food when you have a cold?"
Akina has actually considered what to eat, and has no problem with lying. It's true that lying is something that you learn the hard way.
"Is there anything non-spicy?"
"Okay~" Akina Nakamori didn't actually think about what to eat at this time, but it was more important that Naoki Nagayama took her to eat.
After the two of them discussed it, the agent quickly drove Akina back home.
Naoki Nagayama hesitated for a while before saying goodbye to Yoshimura Otomo and Ito Junko. On the way to Akina Nakamori's apartment, he even pulled up the convertible, and the technique was very skillful.
Why does it feel like a secret date with a star to avoid the paparazzi.
After going downstairs, I called Akina on a public phone, and saw Akina coming down in a new outfit, wearing a mask.
It looks more and more like a secret date with a star.
