Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1072 1072. Super idol
Let the public in the world see the existence of Dahei Moji, and further, let people with music dreams see a new possibility.For record companies, they also have such a responsibility when launching singers.

Asami Yonemitsu came here on her own initiative because of her longing for Daikoku Maki. This incident made Iwahashi Shinichi more happy than GENZO signing another newcomer worth looking forward to.

Today she chooses to join GENZO for Daikoku Moji, and one day in the future, maybe someone will choose GENZO because of her longing for her.For record companies, the most important thing is always "people".The company has a singer who is like a benchmark, and attracts people from all directions, so it has endless hope.

Of course, even if he and Asami Yonemitsu have known each other for a long time, even if she came here for Dai Kuromoki, if the standard is not up to the passing line, then Shinichi Iwahashi will not sign her.

Similarly, Mami Yonemitsu would not have called Shinichi Iwahashi if she hadn't had confidence in herself.At this meeting, she also brought the audition tape that she had prepared for the interview.After reminiscing about the past, Yanqiao Shinichi auditioned the song she brought on the spot.

The talent that the big sister who came out of the famous school back then switched to the pop music school and was no longer bound by the rules, sounds amazing.

In addition to her talent in composing, Mami Mimitsu is surprisingly good at singing——

This was really beyond Iwahashi Shinichi's expectation.

At the same time, I understood what Yonemitsu Asami's longing for Daikoku Moki was all about.For her, when looking at Daikoku Moki, what she really sees is herself.

With such a performance, and this kindness for Daikoku Maki, the contract for Yonemitsu Mami cannot be escaped.

……

To get Mami Mimitsu's full contract, she needs to be polished before making her official debut.After all, being a behind-the-scenes composer and a singer-songwriter debuting on stage are two completely different things.

On the one hand, Mami Mimitsu was polished, and on the other hand, the record company started planning for her debut.In addition, before debuting, there is also the issue of ownership of her agency contract, which needs to be considered and discussed.Signing a newcomer is just a signal to start the long-distance running, and then it is time to meet challenges and tests.

Mami Yonemitsu's sudden visit reminds Shinichi Iwahashi of meeting her for the first time at a musical instrument store in Fukuoka.And thinking of Fukuoka, I couldn't help but think of Ayumi Hamasaki.

When Shinichi Iwahashi met her for the first time in Fukuoka, Ayumi Hamasaki was still a primary school girl.Counting the time, he is already a junior high school student.I don't know if she is still working as a model now, and what plans she has for the future.

At that time, when I saw her side, seeing Ayumi Hamasaki's appearance, I was not very interested in "singing".He left Ayumi Watanabe Wanyumi's business card, and he didn't know if she would choose Wanyumi Watanabe if she still wanted to act.

Or, maybe she entered junior high school and found that studying hard is what she really wanted.

After all, like Mihe-chan, who have decided to become a singer since they were sensible, and are moving in the same direction for this goal, there are only a few people who are determined to be a bit stupid after all.For more people, it is already very good to be able to find the goal that can be fought for after groping and trying like Asami Mimitsu.

However, Shinichi Iwahashi has Ayumi in mind, but in fact there are other reasons in his heart.

This time, through a series of publicity techniques used in the launch of the Daikoku Moki, Iwahashi Shinichi touched a little bit of the way to create a "new super idol".

In fact, in a certain sense, after experiencing a person who was born out of nowhere, who was guessed not to be real, and then made a perfect appearance at the Tokyo Dome, the world regards Daikoku Moki as a "miracle debut", her current status In the image, there is a shadow of a super idol.

It's just that this idol is not the flamboyant "love shake" in the past, but a "hero" that the public chases and worships.

The traditional idol era has come to an end and the public is tired of it, the bubble has burst and one foot has entered a recession, and the era when everyone is in danger and afraid of falling off the wire is coming. ...

If a new super idol is to be born, it must be a person with leadership qualities who can become a "hero".

And when imagining this "super idol", the image of Ayumi Hamasaki came to Iwahashi Shinichi's mind.

Of course, today's Ayumi Hamasaki is just a small junior high school student, expecting her to become the hero being produced is really thinking too much.Even if Yanqiao Shinichi felt worried in his heart, he was just thinking about it.

What's more, judging by Ayumi Hamasaki's appearance, whether she is interested in becoming a singer in the future or whether she will become a singer is still unclear.

In the future, if Ayumi Hamasaki wants to be a singer and chooses GENZO, Shinichi Iwahashi will do his best and use the methods he has found to make "super idols".But if she doesn't want to be a singer, or becomes a singer of another company, Iwahashi Shinichi regrets it, and it won't be affected too much. He will just look for the next newcomer who can shoulder his expectations.

……

Night, Juliana Tokyo.

It's been a long time since Takuji Sakamoto, the big man in women's clothing, made fun of Akina Nakamori as soon as he met, "When Nakamori-san made a move, even Julianna's market became eclipsed."

What he was teasing was the popularity of "Lovely Season", and the fact that the pink-collar workers who used to party all night were willing to give up Friday night life and go home to watch TV.Sakamoto Takuji has always been a master at speaking freely.

As soon as Yanqiao Shen heard what he said, he jokingly replied, "Next time, I will invite Nakamori-san to come, please tell her directly." As long as you are teased more times, your face will naturally thicken.

Takuji Sakamoto responded immediately, "That's really welcome anytime." He imitated the manner of a young girl who likes to make a fuss about everything, and clapped his hands a little exaggeratedly as a sign of welcome.

It's really hard for him to make such gestures, he doesn't seem to have the demeanor of a male eldest sister.As expected, from the band era to today's DJ era, he has been enthusiastically called "Xiao Huihui" by his supporters.

Yanqiao Shinichi was in admiration.

Tonight, Shinichi Iwahashi and Tetsuya Komuro went out to drink with Lin Jiashu. When they moved to the second store, Lin Jiashu left to join another stall, leaving Shinichi Iwahashi and Tetsuya Komuro to act and came to Juliana to play.

Juliana Tokyo is Tokyo's No. [-] disco, and people from the entertainment industry gather together. Tetsuya Komuro is the guest of Masahiro Origuchi, the owner behind the store, and he is chic and comfortable here.

The background of Zhekou Yabo is not very clean, even if it is not pure black, it is gray.This person is very capable. In just two years, he has made Juliana the No. [-] sign in Tokyo, and he is very keen to make friends with people from the entertainment and sports circles. , also came to support him one after another, and even advertised for him when he participated in the show.

As for Shinichi Iwahashi, he has a close relationship with Takuji Sakamoto, a popular DJ in this store and a master of women's clothing.

Takuji Sakamoto came to show his face, then left in a hurry, ready to go on stage by himself.The part-time college student Nagao Tomoaki who shared the same lounge with him was also there tonight. When he saw Shinichi Iwahashi, he greeted him and left quickly.

Compared with Nagao Tomoaki's always lukewarm appearance, what Iwahashi Shinichi cares more is that this rich man is still working here, and it is not a 3-minute popularity at all.

After the greeting, Shinichi Iwahashi and Tetsuya Komuro stayed upstairs, looking down at the crowded dance floor.Standing on the stage, the lead dancer "Teacher" in cool clothes seemed to be shining, which was a bit pleasing to the eye.

Although Takuji Sakamoto joked that the business of the store would be affected on the night of "Lovely Season".However, at first glance, the dance floor was packed to the brim.The customers who kept pouring in seemed to want to get a sense of security from this shoulder-to-shoulder scene, hugging each other.

Yanqiao Shen saw all this in his eyes, and said: "As long as the public enjoys the feeling of dancing to the same melody, the market for electronic dance music will become wider than ever."

He took the initiative to talk about electronic dance music, but Komuro Tetsuya was not surprised. Instead, he smiled at his words. In his words, there was a bit of pride in what a hero saw and agreed with, "The market for electronic dance music is broad, and you dance for the same melody." The number of people will increase like never before.”

Yanqiao Shen smiled, "That's true."

After the collaboration between Tetsuya Komuro, Toshihiko Takamizawa, and Lin Jiashu started, Shinichi Iwahashi, the nominal producer, went to guest-star on their radio host, and also went to be a referee in their recording studio. He had more business contacts. , The recent private exchanges are also quite frequent.

Toshihiko Takamizawa and them don't get along very well. To be precise, this elder brother always suddenly let go, and from time to time his whole body showed the confusion of "Why am I here?", as if he fell from the sky and just fell there.

With such a personality, it is not easy to get along with him very well, but as long as one accepts his personality and knows that he is not just pretending but born like this, it is not to say that he does not like him.It's just easier to ignore him, but the good thing is, he never cares.

Most of the time, Yanqiao Shinichi and two other handsome men act together, and the common topics of the three are surprisingly many. Komuro Tetsuya and Lin Jiashu are not that kind of traditional musicians, especially Lin Jiashu, who is still in charge of the music that his mother opened for him. The management of that independent label, and also signed several visual kei bands under his banner.

However, due to the lack of manpower of the independent label and his own limited energy, the band was signed, but it was difficult to operate.Of course, he chose to sign to the band under Lin Jiashu's independent label, not because he wanted to make him popular.

Yanqiao Shinichi and Lin Jiashu have known each other for a long time. Before X's mainstream debut, the band's last underground album was produced by Yanqiao Shinichi's production company. However, the relationship between them became closer. These three people jointly entrusted him to lobby the record company It's time.

As for Tetsuya Komuro, although the two have often acted together during this period of time, what brought them closer was definitely not the cooperation entrusted to Shinichi Iwahashi, but something else.

"That Matsuura-kun, how are you doing?" Yanqiao Shenyi asked casually after thinking about it.

Tetsuya Komuro shrugged, "I don't know." He smiled, "It seems that he is running around for the new album produced by the company. For a while, the dragon has seen the beginning and the end."

"I see." Yanqiao Shinichi replied.

……

The two of them had seen enough of the crowded dance floor and returned to the box.Ever since he called a few girls over but it was self-defeating, when Komuro Tetsuya and Iwahashi Shinichi came out to play, they would be honest and speak up when they had something to say.

Facing this young man who always kept things back in a calm manner, Komuro Tetsuya also put away his frivolity and did not dare to tease him.Of course, to be more precise, the reason why he takes Iwahashi Shinichi seriously is because he wants to use Iwahashi Shinichi's power to realize his ambitions, so he cooperates with Iwahashi Shinichi's style of behavior.

Tetsuya Komuro acted upright, and Shinichi Iwahashi didn't make too much of a fuss.If you have any ideas, just explain directly, "GENZO is preparing for an audition."

"The selection meeting?" Komuro Tetsuya couldn't guess why he brought this up.

Shinichi Iwahashi invited him, "Is Komuro-san interested in becoming an inspector? Personally choose a newcomer you like."

Tetsuya Komuro's heart moved, and now he guessed what Shinichi Iwahashi meant.

Of course, there was no need for him to guess, Yanqiao Shen revealed his own thoughts, "If Komuro-san is interested, how about trying the music you want to make on the newcomer you like?"

Since Iwahashi Shinichi is also optimistic about the future of electronic dance music and is interested in Tetsuya Komuro's ambition, he must act and do something first.

The audition he plans to prepare is to discover newcomers who are different from GENZO's current singer style, and to discover different newcomers through the eyes of other people.

Therefore, the examiners he prefers include fat young people who don't always play cards according to common sense, and young and promising new producers with a solid style like Takeshi Kobayashi.

Such an audition meeting is also suitable for inviting Tetsuya Komuro and setting aside this opportunity to show his skills.

It is not troublesome to invite Tetsuya Komuro to come as a guest examiner.However, to invite Tetsuya Komuro to be a newcomer to GENZO, the decision cannot be made with just a few words.

After all, he is not a free agent, and the contract is signed with Sony.Although the music contract and the production contract are not the same thing, but if you want to borrow someone from Sony to produce your own newcomer, you must take care of it to avoid any unpleasantness with that side.

If I really want to say it, among the inspectors that Shinichi Iwahashi plans to invite, he is the one who invites fat and fat youths without pressure.

However, Tetsuya Komuro, as a producer, is now a blank slate. Shinichi Iwahashi invited him to review new producers. This approach should be closer to musicians gathering together to play tickets.

...to the outside world.
