Chapter 163: It's like a dream
As long as the fame comes up, everything that follows is like opening a cheat code.
Originally, they only had the identity of "Star! Birth!" winners. Although they had some fame, it was still under the name of the program.
Their debut song had also played a supporting role in various TV shows many times, having some effect but not causing a splash.
And the offline promotional activities in various districts of Tokyo could only be said to have cultivated a batch of early fans.
But NHK's free promotion allowed many people to learn about Junko Ito's information for the first time. The debut song, although only half of it was heard, had already been remembered by many people because of its beautiful melody. It was said that after the NHK news program was broadcast, many listeners called to ask for the names of the idol and the song.
"Naoki-san, the 'Yoru Hit'
show also called!"
At 8 o'clock in the morning, Naoki Nagayama was woken up by Otomo Yoshimura's phone call.
"And some other variety shows!"
"Hai! Hai! Hai! I know~"
Listening to Otomo Yoshimura's excited voice, he knew that he must not have slept much last night, but persuading him to go to sleep at this time probably wouldn't work.
"Otomo-san, this kind of heaven-sent good thing should be prepared with even more spirit. You go take a shower first, and then have a good breakfast. There are still many things to do later! Your body cannot drag you down."
"Hai! I know!"
Otomo Yoshimura agreed very readily.
Although he persuaded Otomo Yoshimura, Naoki Nagayama was also a bit dazed at this time. Originally, he only intended to give a debut song casually, and Junko Ito's subsequent development was planned to just drift along and see what happens.
However, now, heaven had actually given such a big boost, and it seemed a bit ungrateful to this good luck if he didn't work a little harder.
Naoki Nagayama got up and stroked the dog's head first.
"Eitaro, I really don't want to work hard. Isn't it very good to just lie flat and be a landlord~ You say so, right~"
Eitaro, under the owner's lewd power, could only express agreement with "ying ying ying".
Outside the door was a fine spring rain, and spring in Tokyo was already hazy. Winter was indeed getting further and further away~
Unlike the autumn rain that got colder and colder, after the spring rain, the chill of winter was diluted, and all kinds of flowers were about to bloom~
"It's going to be the season for cherry blossoms to bloom again~"
Naoki Nagayama looked at the raindrops sliding past the car window, sighing at the passage of time.
At this time last year, he was still in an apartment in Waseda, not knowing what the future would be like. Now he had moved to a villa, started driving a luxury car, and became a creator of small fame.
When he arrived at the studio, Otomo Yoshimura was already there, and Junko Ito was also sitting on the side.
"Junko-san, how do you feel now?" Naoki Nagayama asked with a gentle smile.
"It feels a bit like a dream now, just like the feeling when Naoki-san held up the sign at that time!"
Junko Ito said what was on her mind. This sentence made both Otomo Yoshimura and Naoki Nagayama feel a bit awkward. Holding up the sign at the beginning was completely an accident...
However, they were all adults with thick skin, so after rubbing their faces slightly, they changed the subject without changing their expressions.
"Otomo-san, do you have any preparations for appearing on the show?"
"Ah, not yet. Isn't this why I'm looking for Naoki-san to think of a way?"
Looking for me to think of a way, what way can I have? Naoki Nagayama complained silently and turned to look at Shuichi Ito again.
"Shuichi-san, do you have any good ideas?"
"I make movies, I don't know much about variety shows!" With a tone of complete ignorance, he removed himself from this matter. Sure enough, it was a good way.
Junko Ito's previous promotion form was completely the orthodox idol mode: after releasing a single, it was appearing on shows, doing promotional activities, repeating and repeating, until she could hold a concert.
If she couldn't hold a concert, she could only disappear in the entertainment industry like other millions of idols.
"Since that's the case, Otomo-san, during the time before 'Yoru Hit', use some resources as much as possible, and appear on variety shows where you can show your face as much as possible." Naoki Nagayama thought for a while. "Even if it's a completely unrelated show, it's fine!"
"Eh?"
"Eh?"
Two questioning voices came out. Otomo Yoshimura asked directly: "Do I have to participate in unrelated variety shows too? Like late-night slots?"
"Hai, if there are any, it doesn't matter. Anyway, it's only for a day or two."
Naoki Nagayama emphasized, "In short, before 'Yoru Hit' is broadcast, let everyone be familiar with Junko Ito's face."
Otomo Yoshimura hesitated: "This might lead to criticism from the media and will also have an adverse effect on Junko-san's image."
"It doesn't matter if it's a music show, and it doesn't matter if it's suitable for Junko Ito's image." Naoki Nagayama waved his hand. "Currently, we only consider Junko Ito's exposure."
Still the same sentence, black fans are also fans. As long as Junko Ito's topicality goes up, naturally more people will learn about her and the debut song.
"She's just a little girl, and she hasn't done anything wrong!"
Naoki Nagayama set the policy, so Otomo Yoshimura wouldn't object.
"Since Naoki-san said so, then I'll go contact them!"
After saying that, this old man left in a hurry, not even taking Junko Ito with him.
This high school girl was a bit worried at this time: "Naoki-san, suddenly having to appear on 'Yoru Hit', I'm indeed a bit nervous~ What if there's no effect later?"
Naoki Nagayama felt that he had recently become a confidant brother to many people. Why did everyone have to seek comfort from him? If it's like this in the future, he would have to consider charging fees!
However, after all, she was his own artist, so Naoki Nagayama comforted her a few words: "Daijobu! Junko-san, you have to believe in your own charm, and you also have to believe in my song!
Even if there's no big effect this time, it's just returning to the previous state, it's nothing~"
Such comfort obviously didn't work, and Junko Ito looked worried.
Chicken soup was clearly very useful for men, why didn't it work for women?
Naoki Nagayama looked at Junko Ito and said: "Junko-san, even my high standard of judgment could be moved by you, and thus I held up the sign. Think about it, so many fans in Japan, how could they compare to my vision?"
Junko Ito glanced at Naoki Nagayama, and her little face slowly turned red, but the worry had already dissipated.
"Hai! I will work hard!"
With light steps, this little girl went to find a familiar makeup artist to ask for advice. She must maintain the best state when appearing on the show.
Sure enough, at this time, he had to rely on his own handsome face!
Naoki Nagayama's heart was both a little happy and a little ashamed.
Actually using a beauty trap on a little girl...
Shuichi Ito had been watching quietly from the side. When Naoki Nagayama looked at him,
He seemed to be looking at this side with the eyes of looking at some dirty thing.
"Shuichi-san, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, nothing, Naoki-san, just want to say that you seem to have eaten a bit too much recently."
"Nani?"
"The face seems to have become much thicker..."
"... Shuichi-san, I found that you have become much more humorous recently..."
