Tokyo Bubble Life

As the sky gradually darkened, the Fuji TV headquarters building was still brightly lit.

In order to meet the entire Neon demand for TV programs, even a quasi-monopoly TV station like Fuji needs to do its best.

"Night Hit", one of the three major audio programs of the Showa era, was being recorded in advance in the studio at this time.

Speaking of which, as the only program among the three major audio programs that is not live, the recorded content and program segments of "Night Hit" are richer and more exciting.

Singing, interviews, performances, chorus. It is indeed much more than the live broadcast of "The Best Ten", and the interview segment is also obviously more relaxed.

After the joint singing session, the hosts Yoshimura Mari and Furudate Ichiro introduced today's guests one by one, including the band Square, the recently active Tunnels, and the powerful Kudo Shizuka and Okada Yukiko.
When it was Akina Nakamori's turn, Ichiro exclaimed:

"I haven't seen Akina-chan for a long time. She's becoming more and more charming now!"

"It's embarrassing for me to say that, Ichiro-san~" Akina Nakamori waved her hands repeatedly, shrank her neck and laughed, looking very cute.

Yoshimura Mari also looked at Akina's colorful silk clothes today and said, "Akina's stage costume is also different from before. Is it because of the new song?"

"Hi," Nakamori Akina put on a business-like smile, "Because this song 'Roppongi Pure Love School' is based on a trendy city girl who frequents Roppongi dance halls, so the clothing has a more mature style."

Yoshimura Mari had actually been reminded by the program director to try her best to steer the topic towards marriage, so she immediately said:

"Akina-chan, this song was also written by Naoki-san. Under what circumstances was it written?"

“I wrote this while listening to the song.”

It's really hard to say. Naoki-san was listening to a song, but he turned around and wrote a new song. Even though she had predicted Naoki Nagayama's genius, Akina Nakamori felt that it was a bit too much!
"." Yoshimura Mari felt a little nervous, but she continued to guide him, "Come to think of it, Akina-chan's image is becoming more and more mature. Is it because she is entering a new stage in her life?"

"A new stage or something, it's mainly because I've grown older~" Akina Nakamori is no longer the straightforward girl who just entered the entertainment industry, and she changed the subject subtly, "After all, I'm already twenty years old. When my elder and second sisters turned twenty, they became responsible and mature adults. I envied them when I was a child, and now in the blink of an eye I'm twenty years old too."

Yoshimura Mari didn't get anything out of her, so she quickly signaled to her partner, and the host Ichiro also got the hint and immediately interrupted:
"I'm 20 years old now, I can drink as much as I want~"

"Hahaha~" "What are you talking about!" "You can't say that in front of a camera!"

The other guests nearby criticized the host, which made the atmosphere more relaxed, which was what Ichiro expected. After calming down the small disturbance, he said to Akina Nakamori:

"If you can't say that, then what does Akina think about after she turns 20? Like getting married? And Naoki-san?"

"." Akina Nakamori rolled her eyes beautifully. Sure enough, she mentioned this point again!
But in front of the camera, I couldn't lie or remain silent, so I thought about it and answered:
"For marriage, it mainly depends on the process of two people's interaction. Maybe at some point, they see each other's eyes and reach a consensus. 'Let's get married'"

"Is that so?" Ichiro was a little dissatisfied. "Are there any special criteria for judging? For example, the anniversary of dating?"

"Probably not~" Akina Nakamori smiled and shook her head.

The very lively Square Band next to them interrupted with laughter: "I have one! One accidentally got pregnant, so she must get married! Hahaha~"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Kyoko Koizumi helped her best friend to hit a member of the band.

"Haha, just talking~"

".Haha~" "How could this happen?"

The guests are all young people, and when they make a joke, everyone laughs a little. This is because the interview atmosphere of "Night Hit" is relaxed. They wouldn't dare to act so funny on other shows.

On the other side, the smile on Akina Nakamori's lips froze. She subconsciously thought that the news of her pregnancy had spread!
But after waiting for a while, she saw that the focus of this group of people's annoyance was on the Checkered Band and not on her, so she felt relieved and realized that it was really just someone else's casual remark!
Seeing that Akina Nakamori looked unhappy, Yoshimura Mari thought the joke had gone too far, and quickly tried to control the atmosphere.
"You can't just say things like that casually."

Then she changed the subject and talked about the new nightclub in Roppongi or something like that. She just knew that Akina Nakamori might be getting married soon, but she didn't know that she was pregnant. It was just that Akina felt a little uncomfortable with the joke about getting married with a baby. After all, as a female idol, she took this very seriously.

During the half-time break of the program recording, Kyoko Koizumi ran to the side of Akina Nakamori:

"Akina-chan, it's being rumored in the industry that you and Naoki-san are getting married soon. Is that true?"

"." Koizumi Kyoko is one of the few good friends of Nakamori Akina in the circle, so she must send an invitation. Nakamori Akina did not hide it, "I will only tell you."

"Yeah yeah!"

"We are indeed preparing for it and the wedding is expected to take place before the end of the year."

"Before the end of the year?!" Koizumi Kyoko covered her mouth and looked around subconsciously, "Is it so urgent?"

"Isn't it beautiful when the red leaves are falling?" Akina Nakamori still didn't tell anyone about her pregnancy.

".It's really surprising"

Koizumi Kyoko sighed. She was going to get engaged in August and get married at the end of the year.
"I thought we could stay in the entertainment industry together for a while longer. Will Akina retire after getting married?"

"After getting married, you should always focus on your family first." Akina Nakamori actually doesn't have much idea about whether to retire or not. Anyway, Nagayama Naoki supports her to have her own career. "When I want to sing one day, I will sing for those who still want to listen to me sing!"

"Really. Free and easy"

Kyoko Koizumi doesn't know how she feels. In the current idol world, Akina Nakamori is undoubtedly the No. 1, and the next level is her, as well as people like Nahoko Kawai and Yoshie Kashiwara. If Akina retires, then they will be able to take a step further!

While the two girlfriends were chatting, another idol walked into the lounge. It was Yukiko Okada.
"Akina-chan, Kyoko-chan is here too." Yukiko Okada came to chat with Akina Nakamori, but she didn't expect that Kyoko Koizumi was also there.

"Yukiko-chan, you look much better!" Akina Nakamori greeted with a smile, "Has your workload decreased recently?"

"Not much less," Okada Yukiko shook her head, "but after I fainted once before, the agency more or less took into account the rest time."

"That's good~"

"I still have to thank Mingcai-chan. If you hadn't been there at that time."

"Dumb tape, anyone will help!"

“No, no, no, it’s different, especially for me.”

Seeing that Okada Yukiko was obviously here to talk to Nakamori Akina, Koizumi Kyoko didn't mean to be a light bulb and said:

"Alright, alright, you guys just thank each other first. I'll go check out the rest of the show first."

After Koizumi Kyoko left, Okada Yukiko bowed earnestly to Nakamori Akina, and then sat down to have a good chat:
"The relationship between Akina-chan and Naoki-san is really enviable."

"Oh?" Akina Nakamori said with a smile, holding Yukiko Okada's hand, "Does Yukiko-chan have someone she likes?"

". I don't know if it's that kind of love." Okada Yukiko's face became sad. To Akina Nakamori who almost saved her life, "Akina-chan, when you enter the entertainment industry, there is always someone you can rely on, make you feel at ease, and make you trust. Is this kind of feeling love?"

"It should be!" Akina Nakamori thought of Naoki Nagayama at that time and nodded without hesitation, "If he has the same feelings, then it must be love!"

Yukiko Okada looked depressed and murmured, "But what if that person has a family?"

"???"

Akina Nakamori felt like she had heard something incredible!

Following the narration of the insecure Yukiko Okada, Akina Nakamori learned that Yukiko had developed a crush on the president of her own firm.
There is no other way. Okada Yukiko is currently staying at the president's house. Every day she can see an older man who is not her father and can arrange her work, encourage her mood, spoil her and give her pocket money. It is easy for a little girl to develop a good impression of him.
That's the problem. The president has a family.
"This"

Older? Older? Puberty girl? Nakamori Akina's mind was filled with countless TV dramas.
She didn't know how to comfort her.

After all, after she debuted, she moved directly into a single apartment and then met Naoki Nagayama.

But she knew one thing, it would be very difficult for Ken-Ok to poach Yukiko Okada!

In the evening, Naoki Nagayama returned to Yamazakurain.

Grandfather Hayato Nagayama stayed at the filming base for almost the entire day, and then went back satisfied. He had no interest in other places in Tokyo. As he got older, his own home was the most comfortable place.

He just said that he would be the first to watch the preview.
The filming of "Hayato: New World" went smoothly. Although Nan Junxiong came to mess things up, he ended up being used as promotional material.
I just wonder if Nam Joon-woong will get furious when he finds out that he is the prototype of the character.

"Should we find an opportunity to establish a good relationship with the Public Relations Department of the Police Department?"

Naoki Nagayama sat on the sofa and stroked Nyanko Taro, making the fat orange cat purr. The TV was on, but Naoki Nagayama didn't pay attention to the screen.

"Sending a banner may not be of much use in Japan, how about making a donation?!"

"And then post the donation photo as well? Say that the movie has the support of the National Police Agency, and launch another publicity offensive?!"

“By then, even if Nam Joon-woong wants to object, he won’t be able to do so, right?!”

"Why not just donate a little? It won't cost much."

There were a lot of messy ideas in his head, and Naoki Nagayama didn't have a systematic direction. However, he was now the leader of his tree friends, so he could throw the ideas to the guys in the publishing department and let them perfect them!

After coming up with a good idea to pass on the blame, Naoki Nagayama finally stopped thinking about it and started watching TV shows.
Today is Friday, and the live broadcast of "Music Station" has come to an end. We can see that many newcomers have begun to show their talents. The male Douhu group of Johnny's is dancing a passionate ending dance in the show, and the junior team can be considered seniors!

"It's really a new generation replacing the old one!"

Naoki Nagayama began to daydream again:
"After Akina and I get married, she will definitely retire for a while. Who will dominate the idol world then?"

Familiar faces flashed before my eyes, including Nahoko Kawai, Yoshie Kashiwahara, Shizuka Kudo, Yukiko Okada, Momoko Kikuchi of Shuyou, Rie Miyazawa, and even Toho Cinderella Yasuko Sawaguchi.
"Ah, I hadn't noticed before that even the last beauty of the Showa era, Sawaguchi Yasuko, has already made her debut. So, all the beauties of the Showa era are here! The most beautiful era of the Showa era has arrived!"

Almost all the beauties of the Showa era in people’s memory have made their debut!
After Yasuko Sawaguchi, there were almost no more Showa beauties who could fight. It can be said that this was the last glory of the Showa style!
Next, the female idols of Reiwa no longer have the unforgettable charm of the Showa era~
"So, why not take this opportunity to look at more beauties? Check out the Showa era to see if there are any Showa beauties that have been missed?!"

After all, he is getting married, and Naoki Nagayama also has the idea of ​​indulging himself one last time. At least, he should enjoy his eyes!
Thinking of this, Naoki Nagayama began to feel itchy. Is there any way to look at the beauty openly? !
"Come to think of it," Naoki Nagayama thought of the agency under Shuyou, "Shuyou's agency seems to have never held a talent show!"

"Would you like to have a special plan at the end of the year?"

In the mid-80s, the bubble was about to appear and the idol winter had not yet arrived. With Shuyou's current fame, if one wanted to select a "Tree Girl", it would definitely attract the attention of all girls of the right age in Japan!

"This way, we can help our friends find the beauties that were missed during the Showa era!"

"And as a judge, I can now admire the last Showa beauty openly!"

Naoki Nagayama felt like he was drunk, and strange thoughts kept popping up in his head. Logically speaking, he had no interest in this kind of talent show. If he wanted to participate, he could have done it several years ago.
I don't know why, but there are so many random thoughts in my head today.
"No. This state."

Naoki Nagayama's mind suddenly became clear. It had been a long time since he recalled past memories in this way. He even forgot the feeling of a heavy head and confused thoughts.

"I am. Am I going to remember something again?"

"Why is it that this time, it's like the same as before."

Closing his eyes, Naoki Nagayama relaxed and let his thoughts wander in his mind.
Gradually, some fragments began to emerge in my mind.
