Chapter 205: I accidentally made the little girl cry

Deep in everyone's heart, there lives someone who cannot be forgotten.

Naoki Nagayama remembers that when he was young and frivolous in his previous life, there was such a person. Going to school together, going home together, laughing and laughing together, the person standing in the sun at that time was like an unreal dream.

A few years later, the dream woke up, and the person was gone.

The figure in the memory became more and more blurred, and even the name was almost forgotten, leaving only that moving feeling.

And a movie called *Love Letter* took root and sprouted in his memory, becoming more and more vivid. Even the original novel he read later because the influence was too deep was still fresh in his memory.

Naoki Nagayama savored this memory for a long time...

Early the next morning, Naoki Nagayama woke up early for some reason and arrived at the studio ahead of time.

Shuichi Yin Tang's studio hadn't been this lively for a long time.

Hundreds of people came to audition one after another. Some were actors who came alone, and some brought agents. They were all middle-aged male actors.

Although in the entertainment industry, age is a qualification, even popular artists need to bow and call a senior, but in terms of job opportunities, the roles suitable for them are indeed getting fewer and fewer.

There are only a few evergreen trees, and resources will not fall on them for nothing.

A crew like Tree Friend Films, which has two big-selling movies, looking for actors without conditions, is already a very good opportunity.

A circle of seats was specially set up in the studio to facilitate these waiting artists to rest. The original small office had all the tables moved out and became a temporary audition place.

All the actions were spoken by Otomo Yoshimura, who was the oldest. Shuichi Yin Tang was like a saw-mouthed gourd. If he didn't meet an artist he was particularly interested in, he only recorded it in his notebook.

There were also three Akita dogs in the office. The smallest one and the half-grown little guy were running around full of vitality, while an Akita dog that was already a bit old was resting quietly on the side.

Seriously speaking, they are the real examiners today. The artists who come in, if they can't please these three in a short time, there will definitely be no chance later, and this is also a requirement specifically put forward by Naoki Nagayama.

Shuichi Yin Tang was a little surprised when he first knew it, because animals have always been adapted to people in movies. This kind of people adapting to animals has never appeared before.

"Naoki-san, are you sure you want to do this? It is very likely that you will miss many good actors."

Naoki Nagayama smiled at Shuichi Yin Tang:

"After all, we are going to film the movie *Hachiko*. The protagonist of the movie is Hachiko! Shuichi-san, if the 'master' cannot get along with several Hachikos in the first time, in the process of filming later, it may not reflect the trust between people and animals, and there will be various dissatisfactions in the process of filming."

What is specific dissatisfaction? For example, not cooperating when touching the puppy, not being like a stranger when expressing the intimate relationship between the master and the pet, and even attacking the actor when the contact is excessive, etc.

"Otomo-san, Shuichi-san, if the actors who come to audition can get along with Hachikos in the first time, doesn't this just show that he has a fate with the movie?"

The other two did not refute such a reason.

Speaking of which, not only Shuichi Yin Tang and Otomo Yoshimura, but many Japanese also believe in "fate". And *Hachiko*, which is being filmed now, itself carries a sense of divinity, so they value fate even more.

I feel that before the start of filming, famous monks will definitely be invited to perform rituals.

Throwing the casting matter to the two, Naoki Nagayama slipped away. Besides his great trust in the two's vision, there was also something Otomo Yoshimura entrusted to him.

Junko Yin Teng's new song couldn't wait!

*Koioto to Amazora* (Love Sound and Rainy Sky), Naoki Nagayama had already handed this song to Otomo Yoshimura before, and Junko Yin Teng had also practiced it skillfully. Taking advantage of Naoki Nagayama's free time the day before yesterday, Otomo Yoshimura had already made an appointment to go to the recording studio to produce the record today.

Driving a convertible sports car, Naoki Nagayama came to the familiar recording studio again.

He had been here several times. *Puzzle*, *Sakura ~Anata ni Deaete Yokatta~* (Cherry Blossom Cherry Blossom, I'm glad I met you) were all completed in this recording studio.

After producing two hot songs, it is said that this originally unknown recording studio has now become a favorite choice for new idols.

Walking in familiarly, Junko Yin Teng was already waiting in the work room.

"Naoki-san, you're here~" The little girl greeted happily.

"Yes, good morning, Junko-san." It had been a long time since they met, and she had grown a lot taller. "Eh, Junko-san seems to have grown a lot taller?"

Naoki Nagayama walked to the side and compared slightly: "You were at my shoulder before, right? Now it seems you are at my chin."

Junko Yin Teng seemed a little shy and angry: "No way~ just wearing high heels, and the hairstyle is a bit fluffy."

Such an attitude made Naoki Nagayama a little strange, but it seems that female idols in the Japanese entertainment industry, and even female stars, indeed have a habit of reporting their height shorter, perhaps to maintain a petite image? Or maybe they don't want to put too much pressure on the men in the entertainment industry?

Anyway, Naoki Nagayama didn't quite understand, but he didn't care too much.

"Haha, so that's how it is." Turning to look at the recording studio, "Junko-san, are you skilled with the new song?"

Returning to work, Junko Yin Teng immediately became serious: "Yes, I have practiced well for a period of time!"

Having had the experience of working with Naoki Nagayama before, Junko Yin Teng knew that once Naoki Nagayama started producing records, he would turn into a tyrant in the recording studio and would point out any place that did not meet the imagination in his heart without mercy.

"Then let's not waste time, let's start!"

Junko Yin Teng walked into the recording room, the staff outside started the recording console, and began to play the accompaniment.

Naoki Nagayama listened to Junko Yin Teng's voice outside with headphones, his brows slightly frowned.

Until Junko Yin Teng finished singing once, he didn't give any instructions.

"Naoki-san, is there any place that needs adjustment in the singing just now?" Junko Yin Teng looked at Naoki Nagayama's frowned brows and asked a little uneasily.

"Junko-san, sumimasen, I was a little distracted just now."

Naoki Nagayama came back to his senses. How could he feel that there was nothing wrong after listening to it once, but it seemed that something was missing... What was it?

"Junko-san, can you trouble you to sing it again?"

"Er, yes!"

Although there were no other instructions, since the producer asked to sing it again, then sing it again~

"Suki da yo to tsutaerereba ii noni (I wish I could tell you 'I like you')"

"Yureru koioto to amazora (Swaying love sound and rainy sky)"

Listening to it again, Naoki Nagayama finally felt a little difference, so he called Junko Yin Teng out.

"Junko-san, what do you feel about *Koioto to Amazora*?"

"Eh? Me?" Junko Yin Teng thought it was about the feeling of the lyrics. "I feel it is a secret love for the object I like, and the emotion erupts in a rain..."

Naoki Nagayama watched Junko Yin Teng start talking about her perception of the artistic conception of the song, and couldn't help but smile.

"Naoki-san, is my understanding wrong?"

"No, it's not. Junko-san's understanding of the artistic conception of the song is not bad." Naoki Nagayama nodded. "Actually, what I wanted to ask just now was what you feel about the arrangement and rhythm of the song."

"This...?" It's a bit difficult for the idol.

"Actually, the time of this song is a bit long. Generally, songs will be within 3-4 minutes, but this song is 5 minutes." Naoki Nagayama paused. "And the repeating chorus part is relatively more."

"So if it is sung by the same person, it may seem a bit too repetitive."

Junko Yin Teng nodded half-understandably: "Naoki-san means, this song is sung by multiple people?"

"Haha, it's all fine." Originally, this song was indeed sung by a group, but singing it alone is not a problem.

"It's just that Junko-san has to sing it a few more times. Try to sing a different feeling for each new chorus."

"Different feeling?"

"Yes, for example, the first chorus carries shy emotions, the second carries a little bit of detachment, the third chorus carries seriousness, the fourth chorus carries some regrets... If there are other emotions, it is also fine!"

Naoki Nagayama was immersed in the feeling he had heard, and didn't feel at all that Junko Yin Teng in front of him was already struggling.

Junko Yin Teng originally felt that there was no problem when she heard the question,

But as Naoki Nagayama's requirements came out bit by bit, her complexion began to change: shy, detached, serious, regretful...

In her heart, it was like a fierce tiger roaring:

"I feel you are making things difficult for me, Junko!"

Naoki Nagayama finally stopped, looked at Junko Yin Teng and said: "How is it, Junko-san, can you do it?"

Very angry, but still have to keep smiling.

After all, this is the creator of the song, the producer of the record, and the boss of her own agency!

"Yes, I will try my best." Junko Yin Teng nodded stiffly.

The recording process of more than 3 hours was like an experienced party, under the torture of the party again and again, painful but having to correct again and again:

"Junko-san, that shy feeling has been found, but it still needs to be a little heavier! Please try again."

"Junko-san, too much force, this is no longer detachment but indulgence! Collect a little bit!"

"Junko-san, the feeling of seriousness is not expressed by singing the lyrics clearly word by word. Please find it again! Oh? You ask me how to find it? I don't know either. Anyway, it's the feeling of putting emotions into it seriously."

"Regret? Junko-san, think about how many times you have sung it before, and I actually said that not one is qualified. Isn't it very regrettable?

Eh? Wait, Junko-san, don't cry! There are qualified ones, there are qualified ones! The front is already almost qualified!"

After a series of communication exchanges, not only Junko Yin Teng in the recording room was tired, but Naoki Nagayama also felt a bit exhausted.

However, looking at Junko Yin Teng, who walked out of the recording room with red eyes, Naoki Nagayama couldn't help but scratch his head in embarrassment. He didn't pay attention when communicating just now, and actually made the little girl cry...

"Sumimasen, Junko-san, my words just now were a bit excessive." Naoki Nagayama took a bottle of milk for Junko Yin Teng as an apology. "However, Junko-san performed perfectly later, not only the feeling of regret, but even a little hoarse nostalgia."

Junko Yin Teng rolled her eyes at the producer in front of her, a little unwilling to talk to him.

However, after drinking a few sips of milk, she still asked:

"Naoki-san, is the record material all finished?"

Naoki Nagayama also nodded: "Yes, it's basically finished, but I still want to add a little rap to the song. It is estimated that I will add a paragraph, and then it will be the matter of synthesis."

"Rap? Do you need to find other singers to cooperate?"

"Yes, but daijoubu, it's very simple. I just found a batch of underground bands before, and it's very simple to find one."

Indeed, because the disco in Takadanobaba is going to be renovated, during this period, Naoki Nagayama entrusted Shizhi Araki to find some alternative new trend bands in the livehouse where underground bands appear, planning to find them to perform after the renovation,

So now there are many punk-style bands to choose from, and it is no problem to find a rap one.

Feeling a little embarrassed for making the little girl cry before, Naoki Nagayama said to Junko Yin Teng: "Junko-san, you performed very well today. I will give you a holiday in the afternoon, go and rest!"

"Eh? Hontou?" Junko Yin Teng became happy all of a sudden. "Don't I need to do anything else?"

"No need~ Go and rest! This is what the boss said!" Naoki Nagayama rarely showed the domineering spirit of a boss.

Junko Yin Teng bowed happily: "Arigato, Naoki-san!"

Looking at the little girl's brisk back, Naoki Nagayama felt that his sense of guilt was a little lighter.

After thanking the staff of the recording studio, he also drove a convertible back to Shanying Yuan, and found a high-end restaurant on the way to solve lunch.

After slightly tossing with Eitaro who welcomed the master home, he called Shizhi Araki on the phone in the living room, agreeing to take a band to the recording studio to try tomorrow.

The afternoon time was relaxed and comfortable. The soft sofa seemed to have magic, making people reluctant to get up. Slightly squinting his eyes, Naoki Nagayama enjoyed the feeling of having nothing to do.

But everything was clearly very comfortable, but his brain was very clear, and he always felt that there was something he hadn't done.

What? Is there an audition in the studio? Isn't that handed over to Shuichi-san and Otomo-san? What does it have to do with me, Naoki Nagayama?

After carefully recalling the experience of this period, it was actually *Love Letter* that he thought of yesterday?

This heavy memory is loaded in his brain. If there is no way to resolve it, then there is always a task pressed in his heart. Once he calms down, he will be restless and cannot relax...

Fortunately, he tried it yesterday, and it will not affect his sleep at night, otherwise Naoki Nagayama would be miserable.

What should he do? Unlike songs, it cannot be released in the form of composing + playing. Does he have to write a movie script and novel?

This is a long novel... It will take a month!

After being in a daze for a while, determined that he couldn't let go of this memory, Naoki Nagayama had to go to the piano room and prepare to start writing.

But what if he thinks of *The Five Thousand Years of History*, *Cihai*, and *Xinhua Dictionary* in the future?

Naoki Nagayama shuddered. He shouldn't have loved learning so much in his previous life, he shouldn't have remembered it! Absolutely didn't remember!
