Game Market 1983 Chapter 164

Chapter 164

“Yes!? Mr. Terrada of HaranQ!? ”
Terrada Matsuo is currently a renowned vocalist and producer of the group Sound HaranQ, which is quite popular in Japan.
Morita was so surprised that she became a big fan of Terrada after hearing HaranQ's "Single Bed" announced last year.
Maurita's favorite song, "Single Bed," was a lyricist's song about a famous singer's longing for a woman who had been separated during the time of anonymity, and was not very popular initially, but it was one of HaranQ's iconic songs, who had been gossiping about it for quite some time.
I mean, come to think of it, Morita. You're a maternal solo. How can I empathize with a woman who was never separated in the first place...?
“Slowly prepare yourself. I'll be waiting in the break room. ”
“Yes, I understand!! ”
Morita headed to the development room in a voice that had never heard of my proposal.
Looking back at him, I turned my eyes to the TV set in the break room after a while.
Yuck...
It was a smoking area for employees, but also equipped with beverage vending machines, as well as consoles and large TVs.
I turned on the TV with the remote control because it was still morning and there was no employee using the break room.
Strange...
Recently, I've been paying attention to one incident that will take place in Japan.
It was the Kobe Earthquake, which became a global issue.
January 1995, originally. So the earthquake that should have happened in the last month hasn't happened yet. Of course, there is no complaint about the disaster not occurring.
If the recession overlaps even the current Kobe earthquake, it could have a big impact on the volume of future consoles sold in the Pentagon.
This is why we are currently coordinating the timing of the launch of Complex Raon.
The so-called Hanshin or Kobe earthquake was a supermassive earthquake that devastated Japan's Kobe in just 14 seconds.
Although living in Japan for the past decade has become accustomed to small and large earthquakes, it is also true that I am honestly afraid of this earthquake that will take place in 1995.
Over 6,000 deaths.
43,000 injured.
A great tragedy that cost nearly 140 billion dollars in property damage.
I wanted to reduce earthquake damage in advance if possible, but to be honest, no matter how much money I had, it was not something I would do with my individual strength.
If I told Masscom I'm not from geology, how am I supposed to convince them?
Moreover, the Iwazi region where the earthquake was originally built as a carpentry site on giant crackers, the ground itself had to be vulnerable to earthquakes.
In that situation, all I could do was encourage people I knew not to go to the Kobe area of Osaka for a while.
‘I don't know until the exact date, but I thought it was roughly mid-January, so why is it still quiet? ’
Rather, I felt a strange anxiety about the twisted past I knew.
‘No, it's not Kobe. It's not like there's an earthquake in another part of town. ’
I turned on the news channel and heard about the incident and turned on the TV as Maurita knocked on the break room door.
“Let's go, Director. ”
“Yes."
Maurita walks forward to the elevator holding the briefcase I was holding for her.
“Does your meeting with Terrada have anything to do with the Idol project you mentioned earlier? ”
“I asked Mr. Ueno, and he suggested that the public side is not his area of expertise...”
“Ah, Mr. Ueno. I can see it in your eyes. HaranQ I really like this group. ”
“I know. Sometimes you're the only one who can sing Haranq. Is it a single bed? ”
“Yes, that's right! ”
Morita has her mouth stuck in her ears, wondering if she's excited to see Mr. Terrada.
So I was leaving the company, talking about Morita and HaranQ, and headed for the parking lot. At that moment, I stopped walking with the feeling of the ground twitching.
“Huh…? ”
I wonder if Morita felt weird, too. I stopped and looked around.
Looking at the parked cars shaking slightly to the left and to the right, Morita and I looked at each other without anyone having to look first.
“That was an earthquake, right? ”
“Yes, I think so. ”
Even the people walking around seemed to be looking around blindly, everyone felt the same way.
“It looks a little strong this time, but I'm glad it didn't last long. ”
“I see...”
Just thinking about the earthquake until just now, I felt anxious about it, but Maurita, who was like her everyday life, moved on as if it was no big deal.
“Hey, but with an earthquake like this, it'll be at least Grade 4. If you move so fast...!! ”
It was then. Kuoooo...!!
“Oops!! What!?"
Morita falls forward, losing her center with a brief scream. I also lowered my posture in a sudden earthquake and quickly looked around, and the cars standing in the parking lot began to sound a loud alarm.
Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep...!!!
Queek, queek!! Queek!!
The road signs on the highway are shaking, so it looks massive.
“Hey, Morita, you okay? ”
“Oh, yes. I'm fine. Are you okay? ”
“Yeah, I'm fine.”
Among the people in India, there were not one or two people who had lost their minds and fell like Morita.
However, there was no accident with the sign falling, so everyone was looking around with a confused look.
Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo!
I opened my phone and got a call because I heard a vibration in my waist. I heard Yuki's voice.
“Joon-Hyuk, are you okay? We just had a big earthquake!? ”
“Oh, it's okay. Seohyun??”
“Other than being shocked by the shaking of the bed, it's fine. ”
“Really? Phew... I'm glad. ”
I sighed for relief and raised Morita to her feet.
Beyond the phone, I heard Yuki's anxious voice, but I tried my best to calm her down and get into the car.
“Yes. Yes. Okay. I'll be in as soon as I can. ”
After the call with Yuki, Morita, who was in the passenger seat, was frowning at her phone.
“What? What's wrong? ”
“Family is good. As soon as the earthquake hit, I called to say hi... and I don't know why I bought this expensive phone. It's only Uchimura and Hayashi...”
“ · · · · · ·. ”
Fight this motherfucker...

Fortunately, after the earthquake we had, there was no more margin.
I was thinking about the earthquake, but my heart trembled so much that I could not stop.
“Breaking news. Around 11: 13 a.m. today. A magnitude of 4.8 has occurred in the Tokyo Strait. The quake swept through a nearby strait with a high wave of three meters, causing three people, including 42-year-old Mattaka, to go missing and search for the paramedics. ”
“The bird... earthquake is bigger than I thought. Close to five...”
Maurita also opens her trembling mouth, wondering if she was too surprised.
“Even though it was the same 4.8, this earthquake felt very different. ”
“I could see the ground shaking, so I was probably trembling up and down. ”
As Morita said, there are two types of earthquakes: shifting from side to side and from side to side feels stronger even with the same intensity.
If you don't understand it well, you will understand it at once if you think about shaking the wide, thin pudding slightly to the left and to the right and to the bottom.
“I'm glad there's no more room, though. ”
“Is it true? ”
“Yes? What the...? ”
“No, it's nothing. I was just talking to myself. ”
Morita tilts her head slightly at my words, then turns her gaze out of the window.

Even outside of Tokyo, it was not easy to find the offices of Terra HaranQ in a fairly complex neighborhood.
‘How has the phone been resolved over time, and when will it wait for navigation...’
When I drove the car, I got relaxed, and I parked in a nearby public parking lot, looking for an office.
Unlike the exterior of the building, HaranQ's office was neatly decorated inside. But it was a group sound-only office, not a big promoter, so it was a little cramped.
“Welcome, Pentagon employees. I've been waiting for you. There was a sudden earthquake, but how are you feeling? ”
I walked into the office with Mauritata, a little tall, juicy skin. A little rustic Terrada welcomed us.
Then why is he wearing sunglasses indoors in broad daylight? Isn't it dark?
“Hello, I'm Kang Jun-hyuk, who came to see you with the help of Ueno. ”
After exchanging business cards with Terrada as a habit to say hello. He led me and Morita to the reception table couch in the middle of the office.
“Hey, I heard from Ueno, but I didn't know Director Kang Jun-hyuk would come here himself. God's gift from the Pentagon last December. I had a lot of fun, too. More than anything else. The theme of the Classic Genre was very fresh. ”
“Thank you for your kind words. In fact, I found Terrada for a similar reason. Did you hear anything from Mr. Ueno about that? ”
“Yes!! Yes. After I told Ueno about Virtual Idol, I was also very excited. Perhaps in the gaming world, in the entertainment world, I think it's a great initiative for history. ”
“ · · · · · ·. ”
Why is he overreacting so much?
I heard from Ueno that he has always maintained a high tension, and I really felt that way. Later, Terada did not hold a grudge against the Pentagon and God's gift with her own PR.
“Actually, no, if you're looking for a producer for a female idol, you've come to the right place. because I'm also a big fan of Kikuchi Momoko, the first idol. ”
Of course... I am grateful to be represented by the next female idol company Hello Project.
Thirsty people dig wells, so if they don't have a group of idols they want to make it...
Terada asked me, looking at the prospectus handed over from me and the profiles of the audition passers.
“By the way, do you have any songs in mind? For example, a group of female idols can emphasize the atmosphere of first love... a little bit lively, right? ”
“... I hope it's more energetic than that. ”
“Ooh, a cheer song? ”
“If there is an area that energizes those in need... such as an earthquake today, isn't there something like that that you can run to and cheer people up? ”
“It's a cheering song worth cheering for. It's a little difficult. I wish I had a sample song to illustrate...”
In Terada's reply, I nodded softly and pulled a tape out of my chest.
I knew it. I brought a perfect sample.
Terada fixed the sunglasses by looking at the music tape on the table.
“What is this? ”
“This is my favorite Korean music. ”
“Oh, right. The title...?”
“To you, infinite orbit. It's called.”
“Oh!! Thank you. I'll be right with you. ”
Terrada taped into the stereo box on the back of the office and pressed the play button immediately.
