Japanese big things

Livehouse was originally a small indoor performance venue that originated in Japan, and then gradually developed and spread around the world such as Europe and the United States. It not only has a professional performance venue, but also has high-quality acoustics.

Different from ordinary bars, livehouses generally have top-notch music equipment and audio equipment, which are very suitable for enjoying various live performances up close, so they are enthusiastically sought after by many people.

Since the distance between the audience and the performing artists is very close, the atmosphere at the scene is often extremely warm, giving people an immersive atmosphere, so the performance effect in livehouses is often far better than that in large stadiums.

With the rise of a large number of idol groups, this type of small indoor performance venues have also become the first choice for many small groups to hold performances and activities. On the one hand, they have professional performance venues, and on the other hand, they have relatively cheap rental fees.<

/p>

For many firms that manage idol groups, the difficult financial problem has always existed. When the income from making money cannot be guaranteed, how to save various expenses has become a top priority.

Of course, those things have nothing to do with Nakamura Masahiro. The purpose of his coming here is not to enjoy some performances, but to have other ideas. Following the surging flow of people, Nakamura Masahiro quickly entered the venue.

As a small indoor venue for professional performances, the decoration of the livehouse is very good in all aspects. Although it is not comparable to the scale of performance venues in Tokyo, it can be regarded as a relatively high-end venue in the remote Hokuriku region.
Probably because of the handshake meeting held today, there are some large promotional posters hanging on the walls of the livehouse, many of which are portraits of the members of the group. There are individual ones, and there are also group members.

The girls on the poster are all wearing exquisite makeup, wearing gorgeous clothes, and showing beautiful smiles. However, the poor shooting quality makes the promotional poster have a vulgar and cheap feel, which makes the poster look vulgar and cheap.

Masahiro Nakamura, a professional, was a little dismissive.

At this time, a lot of spectators had gathered in the venue. In this small space, there was a feeling of being full for a while. Except for a few women, most of the spectators were relatively mature middle-aged people.

This is what surprised Nakamura Masahiro the most.

However, there seems to be nothing surprising, and this phenomenon seems to be quite normal. Japan’s domestic entertainment industry is relatively developed. In addition to young boys and girls actively chasing stars, various housewives and middle-aged uncles are also the main force chasing stars.

It seems that the handshake party has not officially started yet, so everyone's performance is different. Some people took photo magazines and started reading them, and some people walked to the wall and stared at the girls on the posters and kept looking at them.

Some people leaned in the corner and listened to music with headphones, creating a unique space.

Of course, more people still gathered together, actively chatting quietly but enthusiastically about various topics about the group members. Regardless of whether they knew each other or not, as long as everyone came to attend the handshake meeting, then they would

There are common topics.

Being in this somewhat noisy environment, Nakamura Masahiro felt out of place. He was not a fan to begin with, and he was not keen on chasing stars. He was fundamentally different from the group in front of him and could not participate at all.

"Hello, do you want to go shopping together? You can get a few more handshake coupons."

Suddenly, there was a voice beside him, and Nakamura Masahiro subconsciously turned his head. He saw a young man wearing glasses standing aside, about twenty years old, with a warm smile on his face.

"Sorry, no need."

Raising his eyebrows, Nakamura Masahiro politely declined the other party's invitation. The purpose of his coming here was just for verification, not for food, so why did he buy so many things? Although he didn't mind spending money, it was definitely not something he was interested in.

Those who are willing to pay.

"It's okay, I'll go there by myself."

Although the expression on his face clearly showed a hint of disappointment, the other party still responded politely. Then, he turned around and walked directly to a small area in the corner.

Following the direction of his movement, Nakamura Masahiro also noticed the small area in the corner. Because people walked by from time to time, blocking his view, and because he didn't pay attention just now, Nakamura Masahiro didn't notice that place.

I saw two long small tables side by side, with a lot of things neatly stacked on them, such as photo magazines, photos, albums and the like. Two uniformed staff were serving there enthusiastically, talking to those who came.

Communicate over the purchased rice.

Obviously, they are responsible for the sales of various peripherals. Yes, small groups do not have so many income channels, so on-site peripheral sales are very important and account for a large proportion of all income.

The handshake coupon thing suddenly flashed in his mind, and Nakamura Masahiro tried to open the photo magazine and look for the bonus handshake coupon inside. However, because the magazines were wet and stuck together tightly, Nakamura Masahiro couldn't help but

Don’t dare to pull hard.

If you use a little too much force and tear the photo magazine, the included handshake coupon may also be torn. Well, if that happens, it will be more troublesome, Nakamura Masahiro

I don’t want to buy another one.

After finding some paper towels, Nakamura Masahiro carefully wiped the water stains on the photo magazine. The thin paper towels absorbed the moisture on the magazine, and after wiping it back and forth several times, it was quickly crumpled into a small paper ball.

His fingertips gently opened the magazine pages that were glued together. Masahiro Nakamura flipped through several pages before finding the handshake coupon sandwiched in the back of the photo magazine. Well, it was as cheap as a promotional poster.

Sense.

As time passed slowly, the noise in the venue was endless. Just when Nakamura Masahiro felt a little irritable, a burst of cheers suddenly sounded in the venue. Then, the crowd began to flock to the performance stage in front.

People from all corners also came forward to gather.

"I have kept you waiting for a long time. Welcome everyone here..."

A staff member who looked like a host walked onto the stage with a smiling expression on his face. He held a microphone and said the opening remarks. After speaking briefly, he directly announced: "Now, the performance officially begins."

Taking advantage of the moment when he was speaking on the stage, Nakamura Masahiro squeezed in from the side to a position slightly forward. Because the force of the movement was slightly too large, the move of pushing forward also caused some people's dissatisfaction. Fortunately, it was only a little dissatisfied.

That’s all.

As the prelude of the song sounded, a group of girls lined up on the side of the stage and filed out. With formal smiles on their faces, they waved their little hands to greet the fans below the stage, and walked to the center of the stage to stand.
Seeing the members of the group making a grand appearance one by one, the fans in the audience immediately became excited. Some waved vigorously in response, some put their hands to their mouths like trumpets and shouted their names, and some raised their hands

Surroundings and support objects dance back and forth.

The scene suddenly became extremely lively, and the noise was so deafening that Masahiro Nakamura felt like he was deaf. Although it was only a small indoor performance venue like a livehouse, the atmosphere of the performance was not inferior to that of some large stadiums.

He glanced at the members of the group performing on the stage. Each one was wearing a performance costume, and the girl's pretty face was infinitely beautiful. There were about twenty people in the group, which made Nakamura Masahiro feel dazzled.

Since akb48 became popular and became a trend, a large number of followers have imitated it, and its successful model has also been sought after by many. Especially the scale of the members of the group has become the imitation target of many small groups.

Well, as long as the number of members in a group is large enough, there will always be a suitable one for fans who are keen on chasing stars. This is probably the meaning. Anyway, many groups now have a large number of members when they debut.

After carefully looking from the left side of the performance team to the right side, Nakamura Masahiro did not find the familiar figure. So, he opened his eyes wide and slowly moved his gaze from the right side of the performance team.

Back to the left.

Finally, a member at the back of the team caught the attention of Masahiro Nakamura. Her position was considered to be in the corner of the performing team, her dancing movements were relatively unfamiliar, and her head was always a little lowered. Although she also spoke during the singing,

It seems that there is some lack of courage, giving people a gentle and soft-spoken feeling.

The rhythm of the music changed, and the members of the group performing on the stage also began to change their formations. The figure standing in the corner of the team moved to the front of the stage. Taking this opportunity, Nakamura Masahiro squeezed past a little bit, his eyes widened.

Trying to see the girl's face clearly.

As expected, this girl with exquisite make-up and unfamiliarity with dancing is none other than Aimi Miyagoshi, whom Masahiro Nakamura is most familiar with. Looking at her somewhat clumsy performance, which was slightly funny, I was originally in a depressed mood.

Nakamura Masahiro couldn't help but laugh.

She really came to be an idol.

He sighed secretly in his heart, and Nakamura Masahiro's mood turned to sadness. Whether it was on the way here or before seeing Miyagoshi Aimi, thousands of thoughts flashed through Nakamura Masahiro's mind, and the feeling of sadness rose in his heart.

Grudge once filled my heart.

He had always believed that after seeing Miyoshi Aimei, all his complaints would come out. But when he actually saw Miyoshi Aimei on the stage, those overly tangled thoughts were like transparent bubbles, fading under the sunlight.

Under the irradiation, it disappeared without a trace.

This is her choice, her right, and her freedom.

The figure performing on the stage gradually became blurred, and seemed to overlap little by little with the familiar figure in the impression. For a moment, Nakamura Masahiro's eyes felt like he was in a trance.
