Japanese big things

Korinbo, together with the nearby Katamachi, is the most prosperous area in Kanazawa and a shopping place that many people yearn for. It is not only famous in Ishikawa Prefecture, but also one of the most prosperous areas in the entire Hokuriku region.

In normal times, there will be a lot of people gathered here, and the continuous flow of people is the best explanation. During the holidays, there are even more tourists from surrounding counties and cities, a scene of huge crowds of people, coupled with the continuous noise of

, forming a picture of prosperous times.

If we want to make an analogy, it is probably equivalent to places like Chunxi Road and the Bund in China, which are very well-known business district centers in the region. However, it is definitely not comparable to the level in China. After all, the entire Ishikawa Prefecture is the same.

Population of more than one million.

"Moses, Moses, Amy, I've arrived at Xianglinfang."

After getting off the bus, Nakamura Masahiro took out his mobile phone while walking along the street. He found Miyagoshi Aimi's phone number and dialed it directly. After ringing two or three times, the call was connected.<

/p>

"Masahiro-kun, I'm waiting for you at the entrance of Yamato Department Store. Come over quickly."

Miyagoshi Aimei's voice came from the mobile phone. Her soft voice was gentle and her tone was quite lively. Obviously, she was very happy. She didn't know whether it was because they met for shopping or because she was really in a happy mood.

"No problem, I'll be there soon."

After a simple reply, Nakamura Masahiro hung up the phone and walked towards the Daiwa Department Store ahead. It is a famous shopping mall in Kanazawa and a place where many people like to go shopping. Well, Nakamura Masahiro and Miyakoshi Aimi have an appointment.

Over here.

Daiwa Department Store has a total of ten floors. Since its relocation and reopening in 1986, it has invited many overseas brands to set up shop. It has a complete range of clothing and groceries. After starting from Kanazawa, Daiwa Department Store has developed and expanded all the way, and has already expanded beyond Hokuriku.

region, and is also quite famous in Japan’s domestic department store industry.

However, due to the general environment being affected by the financial crisis, coupled with the continued decline in the population of the entire society, and the rise of large-scale commercial facilities in the suburbs, the operation of Daiwa Department Store has actually been greatly affected. It is said that stores in other counties and cities

Some have closed down and I don’t know if they are true or not.

Fortunately, the Yamato Department Store in Kanazawa Korinbo can still hold on. The bustling crowd creates a bustling scene, and it seems not to be affected at all. After all, this is a prosperous area in the center of the city, where the population gathers.

Following the surging flow of people, Nakamura Masahiro crossed the intersection and soon arrived at the entrance of Daiwa Department Store. He looked carefully on the left and again on the right. Nakamura Masahiro did not notice Miyagoshi at all.

Love the beautiful figure.

"Yahong-kun, here."

Just as Nakamura Masahiro was looking around, Miyagoshi Aimi's voice suddenly came over. He turned around subconsciously and followed the direction of the sound source. Nakamura Masahiro turned his head and looked over, only to see Miyagoshi Aimi facing him not far away.

Waved.

The girl was wearing a brown dress, her fair skin was smooth and delicate. She had a small silver-white satchel on her shoulder, her shiny black hair was tied into a bun, and her pretty face became even smaller. She was already extremely small.

The cute temperament adds a bit of aura.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

As he walked closer to Miyakoshi Aimi, Nakamura Masahiro spoke apologetically. Although he was not late, he arrived later than the girl after all. No matter what the reason was, it was worth apologizing.

of.

"It's nothing, I haven't been here long."

Miyakoshi Aimei responded to Nakamura Masahiro with a flowery smile, and then took the initiative to stretch out her soft little hand to take Nakamura Masahiro and said: "Let's go in for a walk."

Following the flow of people coming in and out, Nakamura Masahiro took Miyakoshi Aimei's little hand and walked into the Daiwa Department Store, starting a shopping trip. It has to be said that the Daiwa Department Store, which is located in a prosperous area and has a high reputation, is different.<

/p>

Although the AEON Department Store near my home is not inferior in popularity, after all, it is also a top retail brand in Japan, but after all, it is in a relatively remote location, and its positioning is not so high-end. Therefore, regardless of the building scale and decoration level of the department store,

, or important indicators such as human traffic, there is a huge gap between Daiwa Department Store.

Not to mention anything else, I have seen a lot of well-known luxury brands. The high-end ones that can be seen everywhere give people an extraordinary feeling. Well, although AEON Department Store looks good, but this kind of connotation that can be felt,

Undoubtedly not.

"Yahong-kun, let's go over there and have a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, Nakamura Masahiro's eyes were still wandering around randomly. Before he could react, he was pulled by Miyakoshi Aimi to an area where people gathered. Well, I didn't know that so many people were gathering.

What?

Standing on the outskirts of the crowd, the two of them couldn't see what was going on inside because there were many people separated. However, the already noisy noise became louder, and as a soft prelude of music sounded,

There seemed to be some signs of commotion in the crowd.

Nakamura Masahiro stood on tiptoes and leaned forward slightly, trying to see through the crowd's line of sight and see the situation inside. But although the idea was good, it actually had no effect, and he could only vaguely see a few figures.

p>

"Simi Marseille, may I ask what is going on inside?"

However, Miyagoshi Aimei chose to ask people honestly. She greeted Obasan who was standing beside her in a friendly manner and asked her doubts.

"Oh, you mean inside?"

Although the gesture of greeting the girl was unexpected, Obasan's attitude was also very friendly. After confirming the question, she answered with kindness: "Today, Daiwa Department Store is doing an event and held a singing competition. If you can win

If you win the first prize, you can get a bonus worth 100,000 yen."

"100,000 yen bonus?"

Miyakoshi Aimi confirmed with a surprised look on her face. She thought she heard wrongly. Although the bonus of 100,000 yen is not a lot, it is still a considerable sum for ordinary people.

"What's wrong?"

Noticing that Miyagoshi Aimi's expression was slightly excited, Nakamura Masahiro withdrew his gaze and asked with a little curiosity: "Aimi, what's going on?"

"Yahong-kun, there is a singing competition being held inside. Let's go and participate too."

Miyakoshi Aimi held Nakamura Masahiro's hand and walked around the crowd while answering: "I heard there is a bonus of 100,000 yen."

"Aimi, can you sing?"

As his footsteps moved, Nakamura Masahiro asked casually. There are numerous competitions in Japanese society. In addition to singing and dancing, are there any beauty pageants and the like? Anyway, there are many types of competitions, far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

.

It’s not surprising that a singing competition is held in a department store, but Masahiro Nakamura is a little doubtful whether Miyakoshi Aimi can sing? If you want to participate in a singing competition, you must not be tone-deaf, and you can also make fun of it, as long as you are not afraid of death.

p>

"Yes, I often go to karaoke to sing, and my singing is pretty good."

Miyakoshi Aimi's tone sounded quite confident. However, after listening to it, Nakamura Masahiro was filled with dark thoughts. Although this singing competition is only amateur in nature, the karaoke level seems to be not high enough, right?

The singing competition is just an amateur event held by Daiwa Department Store. The stage for the performance is not big and the layout is relatively simple. It is no different from the singing competitions in some domestic shopping malls. Well, after all, it is just a department store event, and the standards must be the same.

That's all.

The registration method for the singing competition is very simple. You only need to fill in some relevant personal information to complete the registration. In addition, the key is to have the courage to perform on stage. Only those who can stand out and win the first prize will have a chance to receive a bonus of 100,000 yen.

"Yahong-kun, please sign up too."

Bending her waist, Miyakoshi Aimi leaned over the table to fill out the registration form. While writing with a pen, she turned to Nakamura Masahiro and said: "Just treat it as participating in the event."

"If you are interested, you can participate. Even if you don't win the first prize, you will still get a prize."

The person who spoke was a staff member of the department store, who was responsible for receiving registrations for singing competitions here. I don’t know why, but I always felt that he was more active than Nakamura Masahiro, and his words were full of encouragement.

"Then, let me try it too."

Originally, Masahiro Nakamura had no idea of ​​participating, but the prize mentioned by the staff aroused his interest. Anyway, it is an amateur singing competition, and it seems like a good try to go on stage with the idea of ​​participating in it. Well, at least

There is also a consolation prize available.

After Miyakoshi Aimi finished filling in, Nakamura Masahiro took the pen and filled in the relevant personal information. Then, under the leadership of the staff, the two came to the waiting area backstage. In fact, it was a small area on the side of the stage.

, all the people who signed up for the singing competition gathered here.

There were only a dozen or so people in the room, and everyone was busy recording lyrics or adjusting their state. The look on their face was quite serious, and the tense look made the atmosphere a little solemn. Well, it was just an amateur.

It’s just a singing competition, do we need to take it so seriously?

"Excuse me, what is the piece you are going to perform later?"

The staff responsible for playing the song accompaniment came up to Nakamura Masahiro and Miyakoshi Aimi, and after saying hello in a friendly manner, they asked about the repertoire they were going to perform.

Miyagoshi Aimi had obviously already thought about it, so after being asked about it, she immediately reported the song she planned to sing. But Nakamura Masahiro was a little confused. He couldn't remember what song he should perform for a while?

p>

Well, although he listens to some songs from time to time, Nakamura Masahiro doesn't remember them very much, so he is not very familiar with the popular songs in Japan. It is not that there are no songs that he can sing, but those songs seem to belong to the future.

, but it hasn’t appeared yet.

"Well, can I perform my own song?"

After thinking about it, Nakamura Masahiro could only come up with the idea of ​​plagiarism. Well, it doesn't seem to be considered plagiarism. After all, those songs didn't appear. If Nakamura Masahiro used them to perform, they would be original.
