Chapter 990: Found it, the female lead has been found!

Naoki Nagayama and Akina came over in that color-changing AE86.

Such an ordinary car wouldn't attract too much attention, and it was also convenient for the famous couple, both wearing masks, to blend into the crowd.

The light in the small performance venue wasn't very bright. When slipping into the livehouse, the two took off their masks. Naoki Nagayama circled Akina within his arms, creating a protective circle with his tall and sturdy frame, preventing others from accidentally bumping into her.

And Akina was excitedly leaning on her husband's arm, stretching her neck to look at the stage...

"The performance hasn't started yet~" Naoki Nagayama said.

"I'm looking at the singer Naoki-san is paying attention to..." Akina looked at the lead singer on the stage, "He looks thin and lean, can he have the explosive power and impressive singing voice Naoki-san said?"

"It's a clear singing voice full of a sense of youth." There was some noise in the venue with warm-up music playing, so Naoki Nagayama lowered his head and said in Akina's ear, "Natural vocal conditions... it's about the same as Akina's mid-to-low range."

Akina felt a bit itchy from the hot air in her ear, but she didn't have any intention of moving away at all.

The feeling of being intimate with Naoki-san in the crowd was like flirting, like an invisible fiber rope tightly pulling the hearts of the two, warm, tense, and addictive.

Speaking of which, it seemed like it had been a long time since the two of them went out on a date~

Akina's cheeks, hidden under her long hair, were red, and she couldn't help but grumble to herself:

"How shameless, and I'm about to be a mother~"

Naoki Nagayama didn't notice his wife's mood, relying on his height to look up at the band on the stage. As the lights started to dim and the spotlight shone on the stage, the band members started to play a cheerful rhythm.

Kazumasa Oda walked to the front of the stage, jumping slightly while shouting to the fans under the stage:

"Domo Arigato~"

After stirring up the atmosphere in the venue, he started to sing:

"How are you doing now? Are you still thinking about other things?"

"Looking at you in a daze, do you have someone you like? If you don't want to answer, just pretend you didn't hear it~"

"Can I hug you?"

"..."

This song 'YES-NO' is a confession song of youth, full of a relaxed and happy atmosphere, and the light rhythm led the audience in the livehouse to clap and sway along with the music.

Kazumasa Oda brought out all his enthusiasm today; the first song was his "famous song", because it was only because of this 'YES-NO' that he could receive attention and carve out a piece of his own world in the underground music scene.

Akina also swayed happily along with the rhythm, and after becoming familiar with the chorus, she even hummed along with the chorus using a falsetto... If you only looked at her face, she was no different from a high school student immersed in love.

In the happy atmosphere, no one recognized that this was the famous Akina Nakamori.

Kazumasa Oda's clear singing voice, so pure and beautiful like a teenager, was impressive as soon as you heard it, especially when singing sentimental songs, it was as if youth was singing to you gently.

"Goodbye", "In the crowd", "Lying you"...

One after another, Kazumasa Oda's self-created famous songs rang out on the stage, causing continuous cheers from the audience present, and also making Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori immerse themselves in such an atmosphere.

The small livehouse had excellent performance effects, and Naoki Nagayama didn't feel too tired even though he had been standing under the stage, but Akina's legs were a bit sore... after all, she was carrying several pounds of weight now.

"Let's go to the bar and sit for a while~"

"Hmm~"

Naoki Nagayama took Akina to the bar next to them, and then went backstage himself, finding the manager of the livehouse.

"Naoki-san?!"

The manager, Yukihiro Noguchi, was incredibly shocked to see Naoki Nagayama,

"You... why are you here?"

"I heard there's a performance by the OFF-COURSE band here, so I came to take a look..." Naoki Nagayama said with a smile, "Sure enough, it's impressive... Noguchi-san, can you help invite lead singer Kazumasa Oda over for a chat?"

"Ah... ah!"

Yukihiro Noguchi reacted; Naoki Nagayama was interested in the band!

"Of course no problem! I'll go call him right away!"

Among Naoki Nagayama's many titles, there was that of a gold-medal music producer, and currently, he only had one singer under his agency, Tsuyoshi Ozaki, but this singer was already red-hot!

Being spotted by him was a good thing that all bands dreamed of!

After arriving backstage, he saw Kazumasa Oda and the band members organizing their instruments.

Yukihiro Noguchi immediately walked up and said loudly:

"Captain Kazumasa Oda! You are about to have a great fortune!!!"

"???"

The others all looked over, but Kazumasa Oda reacted; he had already heard the news:

"Has a music producer come?! Which record company is it from?"

"Hahaha, it looks like you are prepared~" Yukihiro Noguchi laughed, "But you definitely won't believe who came..."

"The one who spotted you is Naoki Nagayama! He came in person!! He's waiting for you at the bar!!!"

"!!!"

Once this was said, not only Kazumasa Oda, but the entire band was surprised.

Compared to the film industry, Naoki Nagayama didn't seem to have won any major awards in the music industry, but the big-selling golden songs that were on everyone's lips couldn't be fake!

Everyone knew that if Naoki Nagayama wrote a song for you, it would definitely make you leap into becoming a famous singer!

"Is it really Naoki-san?!" Kazumasa Oda couldn't believe it.

"Yes! Right at the bar over there..."

Yukihiro Noguchi urged,

"Hurry, hurry, don't let Naoki-san wait too long..."

"Is it just me? The others..."

Kazumasa Oda looked at his teammates; as a young man, he still put loyalty first at this time.

"A famous person like Naoki Nagayama naturally only sees the lead singer, but if he wants to sign, he will definitely sign the band..." Yukihiro Noguchi pulled Kazumasa Oda and walked out, "Record companies are all like this, raising people doesn't cost much! Don't worry!"

"Like that..."

Kazumasa Oda hadn't had time to think clearly before he arrived at the livehouse bar.

He only saw a tall male sitting by the bar in the dim light, and a female companion sitting next to him, seemingly still arguing about something...

"Akina, I said you can't drink alcohol..."

"The bartender said that Mo Jituo can be adjusted to a non-alcoholic version!" Akina hadn't drunk alcohol for half a year, and it was clear she was craving it...

"But I don't trust the bartender here... let me taste it first..."

"You just want to drink my wine!"

"..."

Naoki Nagayama, who was teasing Akina, saw Yukihiro Noguchi leading Kazumasa Oda over, and hurriedly straightened his posture, showing the appearance of a mature big boss.

"Nice to meet you, I am Naoki Nagayama..."

Naoki Nagayama formally paid respects to Kazumasa Oda, and then handed over his business card.

"Nice to meet you, I am Kazumasa Oda..."

And on the other side, Kazumasa Oda was a bit restrained; he didn't have his own business card...

But fortunately, Yukihiro Noguchi reacted relatively quickly and helped hand over his business card:

"Oda-san is temporarily stationed at our livehouse, if there is anything, contact me, I will notify him! I won't disturb you first..."

"Arigato~"

Naoki Nagayama accepted the business card and didn't say much, inviting Kazumasa Oda,

"Oda-san, is it convenient to chat? I'll treat you to a drink~"

"Yes!"

Kazumasa Oda sat down a bit restrained; he had also met several music people, but never once was he as nervous as today.

The one in front of him was a famous big figure in the entertainment industry, and the girl sitting next to him, sucking on a Mo Jituo with a straw and looking over here, was clearly Akina Nakamori!

"Oda-san, don't be so nervous, we're just chatting~"

Naoki Nagayama signaled the bartender to mix a cocktail, and after watching Kazumasa Oda take a big sip and relax a bit...

"I heard from a friend that there is a small and famous band in Nerima Ward, whose songs are very popular, especially the lead singer's singing voice, which is unforgettable..."

Naoki Nagayama said with a smile,

"Listening to it today, it really lives up to its reputation..."

"Where, where, Naoki-san overpraises." Kazumasa Oda said modestly.

"Not at all... Oda-san's performance is worthy of the name..." Naoki Nagayama praised, "I heard that the songs are all written and composed by you, right?"

"Hai, most of them are me... but there are also the efforts of other teammates..."

"Hmm, it's like this when a small band just starts... you must have been very difficult when you first started..."

"There were some difficulties... there are too many bands in Japan..."

A few words of pleasantries made Kazumasa Oda's mood relax, and he only felt that Naoki Nagayama really understood the hardships of small bands.

Actually, this was just the effect of the filter; a little concern from a superior would be brain-supplemented into huge emotion under the huge status gap...

"Oda-san... have you heard the news that Tree Friend is preparing to film a TV series recently?"

"Hai, I've heard a little... I heard they are conducting auditions, and the female lead is very hard to find..."

Naoki Nagayama nodded: "It is indeed so, but it doesn't matter, it will always be found... just like today..."

"???"

"'Tokyo Love Story' as a TV series, it must have a theme song..."

Naoki Nagayama said directly,

"I wrote a song called 'Sudden Love', and I think your singing voice is very suitable... Is Oda-san willing to come and try it?!"

It was a bit awkward to say this in front of the original author, but Naoki Nagayama was already used to it.

Cuckolding to the face, there was a different kind of feeling~

"This... I..."

Kazumasa Oda was already a bit mentally prepared; he was prepared to be signed by Tree Friend... But Naoki Nagayama actually wanted to give him the theme song for the next TV series directly?!

Who didn't know that the theme song of a hot TV series would definitely sweep through Japan!

"Why, are you unwilling?"

"No! Of course I am willing!" Kazumasa Oda stood up, his face red, "As long as Naoki-san is willing to trust me, I will definitely do my best to sing it well!"

"That's good..." Naoki Nagayama nodded, "I will have my subordinates contact you later... we will go to the recording studio to try singing it..."

"Hai!!!"

Naoki Nagayama said some more things to Kazumasa Oda, but Kazumasa Oda, who had drunk the cocktail, didn't remember... he only felt that Naoki Nagayama was so kind and what he said was very warm...

Ah, Akina Nakamori next to him seemed to have greeted me?!

After returning backstage in a daze, the teammates were greeted with cheers... and then... there was no then~

And on the bar side, Naoki Nagayama was a bit strange:

"Why do I feel Oda-san is a bit drunk? He only drank two glasses, right... is his alcohol tolerance so shallow?!"

Looking at the bartender's innocent look, Naoki Nagayama immediately looked at Akina Nakamori next to him...

And at this time, Akina also turned her head away guiltily~

"Akina, what did you do?"

"Nothing..."

"What did you ask the bartender to mix?!"

Naoki Nagayama remembered that he had just casually said a cocktail, the bartender should have served a regular Margarita or something...

"seeyoutomorrow..."

"???"

"It's a mix of six base spirits including vodka, gin, brandy, tequila..."

"..." Naoki Nagayama looked at Akina, who had an innocent face, "Akina... that Oda-san doesn't have any grudge with you..."

"I originally wanted to give it to Naoki-san to drink!"

"Why?!!!"

"Because you snatched my wine!"

"..."

On the Tree Friend side, Masami Inada was still racking his brains to find that girl who walked out of a manga.

"Naoki-san's requirements... why are they so weird!"

He flipped through the photos in his hand, wanting to find a character that could make his eyes light up.

But to be honest, for people working in agencies, especially department heads of famous agencies like him, the number of beautiful girls seen during work is simply too many.

Each one harboring dreams, wanting to become famous in the entertainment industry, and actively managing their appearance, the beautiful girls he saw made him a bit visually fatigued!

People who have seen too many beautiful girls know that human aesthetics are actually convergent; beautiful faces have no more than a few characteristics: fair skin, harmonious features, big eyes, high nose bridge, full lips...

After seeing them later, it was as if all beautiful faces were from the same mold~

So someone said they were face-blind and didn't know if their wife was beautiful, maybe they were telling the truth... because they had seen too many!

"Walked out of a manga... smile has infectious power..."

Muttering, Masami Inada flipped through the photos one by one, and finally couldn't help but throw them on the table!

"Too annoying!"

Just at this moment, the Deputy Manager of Operations, Takeharu Kawahara, knocked and walked in.

"Inada-san... I think I found it!"

"???" Masami Inada's eyes lit up, "Really? Where? What's the name? Where's the photo?"

"There is no photo for the time being, but I found a videotape..."

Takeharu Kawahara took out a videotape from his bosom, and while playing it, said,

"The one found is the winner of the newcomer award from HoriPro... because it wasn't the champion, so I didn't pay attention before..."

On the TV, the scene of the audition award ceremony started to appear... Among them, one girl who didn't look so outstanding at first glance, with a high nose bridge and a big mouth... a girl with a Western-style face.

But when she smiled, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and the arc of her upturned corners of the mouth was like a bigger crescent moon, as if the entire screen was smiling at you!

"!!!"

"It's this smile!"

"It's like walking out of the TV!!!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, notify Naoki-san!!!"
