The process of recording a single is complicated and boring. In addition, there are vocal lessons every day. The recording life these days made Takaki feel that the busyness he thought before was just a trivial matter.

The only thing I'm happy about while I'm busy is that Akashi Masao, who arranged the music for himself, does have two skills. After discussing with Akashi Masao, and after several experiments, the song "Impulse" basically restored the original arrangement style.

The continuous high-intensity recording lasted for a whole week. When he finally finished recording the A-side song and was about to relax, Takagi Taku received another c/w song from his assistant Izumi Sakai, a baby-faced little girl.

The lyrics of this song "Maple" were turned into a Japanese love song called "The Days I Lost You" by Izumi Sakai.

After showing the finished song to Nagato Daiko, and getting his nod, Takagi had to devote himself to the recording of the new song again. When he finally completed all the recording of this single, he was told that he needed to devote himself to it immediately.

The single PV and cover are being produced. After being busy for more than half a month, Takagi finally breathed a sigh of relief when the master disc of the first single was placed on Nagato Daiko's desk.

As the debut song for the "super-large newcomer" he discovered, Nagato Daiyuki did not neglect it at all. He gave the newcomer no less treatment when he debuted. He also helped Takumi Takagi contact Nestlé Coffee's advertising song as a tie-up and even a single.

Contact the TV station to play the pv of the new single before its release.

Finally, on November 11, a day that made Takaki Takagi feel nostalgic, the first batch of 100,000 copies of his debut single hit the shelves of major RB record stores.

-----

On the night when the new single was officially released, Matsumoto Takahiro took Taku Takagi to a Chinese restaurant in Roppongi in the name of celebrating the release of his debut song. Along with him was Matsumoto Takahiro's good friend Hiroshi Inaba, who he had not seen for a long time.

Shima Naoko.

"Speaking of which, President Nagato spared no effort in your single. Not only did he bring in a tie-up, but he also helped you contact record stores to put your single in the most prominent position. There was no such thing when we debuted.

You are so lucky." Matsumoto Takahiro joked while eating the food in front of him.

"Teacher, what you said makes me even more stressed. Once the sales of the single are not good, I will be too embarrassed to see President Nagato." Indeed, Takagi Taku not only did not relax these two days, but became even more nervous.

, after all, this is his first single. Whether it can open up the market, satisfy discerning listeners, and then gather some popularity is related to whether he is suitable to continue in this singing industry. Although he has traveled through time as a rebirth

He has some advantages, but he can't feel the pulse of people's interest in this era. Whether this single will become popular in the end is still unknown.

"I have confidence in this single. Don't worry, it will definitely sell well." Takahiro Matsumoto patted Takaki Takashi on the shoulder and said that his master was full of confidence in his single.

"Hmm, I went to support Takagi-kun's new single early this morning. It sounds very good, and I think it will be a bestseller." Naoko Iijima, the only woman in the audience, also echoed.

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Miss Naoko for a long time. What have you been busy with recently?" Maybe he was feeling guilty. Takagi Taku didn't want to keep discussing his new single, so he deliberately diverted the topic away.

"Recently, several TV drama productions have asked me to go to the mirror, and then I have to participate in TV programs. I am very busy." Naoko Iijima did not notice these little thoughts of Takagi Taku. Since Takagi Taku asked, he gave a straight answer.

Got him.

Naoko Iijima's words aroused Takagi Taku's interest. As an aspiring young man who is inspired to become a singing star in film and television, his singing career has already started, but his career in film and television has not yet begun.

I have also thought about how to get involved in film and television. With his acting skills that he only performed in stage plays in elementary school, it is a bit difficult to appear in TV series, so the easiest way is to be a script provider or producer.

Get involved. Now that Naoko Iijima mentioned about TV series production, Takagi Taku further asked: "TV series production? It sounds very interesting."

"What's interesting? It's extremely complicated. It's much more troublesome than singing. Today's TV dramas are all produced by major TV stations. If you want to produce a TV series, you have to open up a lot of joints." Iijima

Naoko dismissed Takagi Taku's so-called fun.

"Is that so? When I was in college, I thought about writing a TV drama script." Takagi Taku said with a somewhat self-deprecating smile. It seems that it is still very difficult for him to realize his dream of becoming a star in movies and TV shows.

"Okay, Takagi-kun, you better give up on this idea. The only interaction between the TV series and our singers is the theme song in the opening few minutes." Matsumoto Takahiro never forgets to pour some cold water on his disciple to cool down.

"Don't worry, teacher, I'm just interested. I don't have any inflated thoughts of getting involved in other fields right after I debuted." Takagi Taku reassured Matsumoto Takahiro.

Hearing what Takagi Taku said, Matsumoto Takahiro also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want his disciple to go astray when he debuted and ruin his own future, so he turned the topic back to Takagi Taku's single production: "Takagi

Jun, although the debut song has been released, there may be some music shows during the promotion period. As a newcomer with no live experience, Takagi-kun can’t slack off."

"Well, I will always be in good condition." The only RB music program Takagi Taku knew in his previous life was TV Asahi's "Music Station". Even in this era, he has been exposed to some other music programs, but as a

A newcomer who has never been on TV before actually has no real sense of reality.

"Well, if you want to stay in good condition now, then I will accept Takagi-kun's wine on your behalf." Hiroshi Inaba, who was sitting aside, smiled and took away the sake placed next to Takagi Taku. He is not like Matsumoto Takahiro.

He is worried about Takagi Taku. In his opinion, Takagi Taku is quite mature and steady and will not do anything that will affect his future.

"Eh? Is that so? Then... okay then." Takagi Taku pretended to be in pain, making the others present laugh.

After dinner, after putting several seniors into a taxi, Takagi Taku did not rush back to the apartment. Instead, he strolled to a record store in Roppongi. Seeing his records displayed in a conspicuous position, Takagi Taku casually took one.

Zhang came to the checkout counter. While the staff was wrapping the record for him, Takagi asked casually: "Is this the first day of sale for this record? How is the sales going?" After all, it is a debut song.

It is very difficult for a new singer not to understand the popularity of his record on the first day it is released, even if he is born again.

"It's pretty good. I heard he's a new singer from Being Company. I've seen the PV of his new song on TV before. I think it's the type that can sell well." The staff of the record store took the packaged ones.

He handed the record to Takagi Taku and said.

Hearing that his records were selling well, Takagi Taku happily said thank you and took a taxi back to his apartment.

But Takagi Taku, who originally thought that the day would just go by, had just entered the door and before his butt was warm, there was a knock on the door.

"Keita-kun? Why are you here?" Opening the door, Takagi Taku saw Keita Aso standing outside the door.

"Takagi-kun, do you have time? Why don't you come out and sit for a while?" Keita Aso said as he stood at the door without entering.

------

In a small izakaya in Shinjuku, Takagi Taku and Aso Keita sat across from each other. After ordering a few side dishes and a bottle of sake, Aso Keita said: "I invite you to come out today. There are two main things.

First of all, I would like to congratulate Takagi-kun on his successful debut as a singer." At this point, Keita Aso raised his glass and toasted Takumi Takagi and then continued: "The second thing is to say goodbye to Takagi-kun. I will go back tomorrow.

It’s Yokohama.”

Takagi Taku was about to be humble with Keita Aso, but he was stunned when he heard the second thing Keita Aso said: "Eh? Are you leaving tomorrow?"

"Well, I'll leave tomorrow." Keita Aso replied: "Don't worry, Takagi-kun, even if I go back to Yokohama, you will still be my best friend."

"You know I'm not worried about this." Takagi Taku said: "Actually, I can recommend you to being. Maybe we can form a band again."

Keita Aso smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You have just debuted, so I can't cause you any trouble. Besides, I know how much I weigh. Being a member of an amateur band is fine. If I want to make a mainstream debut, I still have to do it."

I really don’t have that ability.”

Takagi Taku was silent for a while after listening to his words, and asked helplessly: "Decided?"

"Well, it's decided." Keita Aso answered quickly, or it could be said that he had already thought deeply about going home.

"Then, I wish Keita-kun a safe journey." Takagi Taku heard the firmness in Keita Aso's tone and gave up the idea of ​​continuing to persuade him, and picked up the wine glass.

"I also wish Takagi-kun to become a great singer soon." Keita Aso also picked up the wine glass and said with a smile.

The conversation didn't last long. After leaving each other's contact information, Keita Aso said goodbye early on the grounds that he still had to pack his luggage. Takagi Taku sometimes also wondered whether he and Keita Aso were kind of gentlemen.

The feeling that friendship is as light as water?

Returning to the apartment again, Takagi Taku himself felt a little emotional. He knew Keita Aso's temper. He must have tried hard in the past few months since they last met. If he hadn't encountered so many nails that he collapsed, he would have

He would not make this kind of decision, or it could be said that this was what he would do after he had no other choice. In fact, with Keita Aso's ability, even in the 1990s when the bubble burst, he could still find a job in Tokyo without entering the entertainment industry.

A decent job, but Takagi Taku knew that if Keita Aso could not realize his dream, he would not stay in this place where his dream was shattered.

Tokyo in this era is like Beijing in my own era. In such a prosperous metropolis, countless young people with dreams come here to pursue their dreams every day. Similarly, countless young people with their dreams shattered every day feel sad.

Leave. If I were not a reborn person, if I did not have the help of Xiao Ai, would I be like Keita Aso and return to my hometown one day with my luggage on my back? I think I might be even worse than Keita Aso, Keita Aso

At least I still have a home to go back to, but where is my own home?

That night, Takagi Taku had some insomnia.
