Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 170
In the past few years, they were all orthodox idols, with cute, handsome, and Sekusi styles.

Later, there were amateur idols represented by the Kitten Club, and amateur idols can be subdivided into styles such as little sisters, good girls, and those who look innocent but sing "Banana's Tears".

This kind of strange lyrics... This fat young man Yasushi Akimoto is very bad.

In addition to these, there are two more powerful.

One is Matsuda Seiko, who is destined to become a legend. After getting married and having a child, she made a lightning comeback. She sang against the tradition in the entertainment industry since Bai Huiyouhe, and personally said that "the old lady can still beat the newcomer after giving birth".

For this reason, the Japanese who are full of nicknames and skills have specially created a word for her called "ママドル", which means "mother idol".

The other is Chen Meiling, the original Huya idol brought back from Hong Kong by Watanabe Productions in the 70s.

It was said before that she and Kaneko Rik, the manager of Watanabe Productions, tied the knot and both quit the company to start their own businesses. Then, not long ago, Chen Meiling, who had just given birth to her first child, was criticized by magazines for taking the child and the nanny to the TV station. Either she goes home to raise the baby, or she doesn't let the baby come to work.

The work of a TV station is not the same as ordinary work. Sometimes I go to work at seven o'clock in the morning, and it is my turn at ten o'clock.

Because of this, Chen Meiling couldn't understand the requirement of having to choose between the two, so she started fighting with the magazine.

At that time, the Law on Equal Employment Opportunities for Men and Women was about to be promulgated. Chen Meiling's protest just touched on a core issue: what should women who have given birth to do in the workplace?

This controversy has been raging for a long time. In this way, Chen Meiling has suddenly become a representative of equal rights, which defines what an idol is in another sense.

By the way, one of the things that TBS is proud of is that 100% of its female staff will return to work after giving birth, and the TV station also has a special kindergarten for them to release their children.

It has to be said that the idols of the older generation are bulls, and they can make things big.

Of course, an idol who can make big things happen after the big waves wash the sand is an idol among idols.

In the current situation, there are all kinds of idols on the market. It is not a bad idea for Warner Pioneer to change the policy of producing newcomers and launch unique newcomers.

But the current solo market is not very good, and the road to female solo is even more difficult. It is understandable that Warner Pioneer does not want to be this iron boy.

However, thinking of playing tricks, the positioning of the "powerful idol" that was finally considered is not very good.

Although Chisato Moritaka knows several musical instruments and showed off her keyboard skills during the performance, fundamentally speaking, the production of the songs is still taken care of by professionals, from lyrics to production, even the costumes are decided by others.

At the same time, there was a talented Misato Watanabe who had just become popular, and her famous work was "My Revolution".

This song was provided by Tetsuya Komuro of TM NETWORK. It not only made Watanabe Misato a hit, but also Tetsuya Komuro became a composer who attracted attention, and the popularity and popularity of the band also rose.

However, this Watanabe Misato not only has a handsome appearance, but also has super powerful singing skills. It is not a problem to sing on the baseball field. Except for the ratio of [-] to [-], there is nothing wrong with it.

And Sen Gaoqianli's singing skills obviously have nothing to do with the powerful faction.

The main focus is strength, but the strength is not enough, and the performance of musical instruments can only be said to be icing on the cake.

Although the soft power is top-notch, in order to highlight the so-called powerful faction, he deliberately lowered his appearance and hid his beauty and long legs.

In the end, it turned out to be nondescript.

Those who like the power group think she is an embroidered pillow, and those who like the idol group think she is a local girl.Thanks to Warner Pioneer for this kind of unflattering packaging technique.

In 1967, Japan implemented the first capital liberalization, opened up some industries, and allowed foreign companies to carry out direct investment activities in Japan.

However, because the foreign investment ratio allowed in the recording industry is 50.00%, there are also "CBS Sony" with Columbia and Sony, and "Warner Pioneer" produced by Warner, Pioneer and Watanabe.

However, regardless of the fact that it is a subsidiary of Warner Music Group in Japan, despite its reputation, Warner Pioneer's plan for singers is not so clever.

This kind of nondescript is visible to the naked eye, as a bystander.

The so-called fan of the authorities, what has happened, Shinichi Iwahashi can see the problems in it, but the Warner Pioneer who is in it may choose this method from several options at the same time and think it is the best.

Yanqiao Shinichi felt that unless Sen Gao Qianli was allowed to practice in seclusion now, and then let her out after she had the strength to be able to fight alone in the industry - the premise was that she still had such a strong potential, otherwise, if she really followed this route all the way Go down, sooner or later you have to pack it up and send it back to your hometown.

Of course, finding the problem is only basic, the key is how to solve the problem.

……

After watching the videotape, Yanqiao Shen thought for a while, and first compared the songs in the music library at hand.

Compared with the Western-style songs that Masato Nakamura is good at, or the tough rock music that Tatsuya Hirakawa and the others pursue, Seiichiro Kuribayashi, who is good at writing AOR, is obviously more in tune with Chisato Moritaka.

GENZO does not have its own exclusive lyricist now, and Yoshida Miwa has yet to write lyrics for songs written by others. Iwahashi Shinichi realizes that there will be many opportunities for her to sing Masato Nakamura's songs in the future, so he is urging her to learn to write lyrics.

Seiichiro Kuribayashi can also write lyrics himself, and every time he teaches a song, there is a version with lyrics.Of course, the lyrics may not be useful, and more often the composer sings and reads to confirm the melody.

Seiichiro Kuribayashi's lyrics are remarkable, but if they are sung by female singers like Chisato Moritaka, they are somewhat out of tune, and GENZO has no lyricist who can replace them—this is exposed The problem of shortage of manpower, recruiting talents is still an urgent matter.

Although compared to composing music, writing lyrics seems to be very simple, and it seems that anyone can do it, but in fact, it is by no means easy to write good lyrics. Words and music are indispensable.

Although the problem of the lyricist can be solved by inviting foreign aid, you can even take the opportunity to make a topic out of it.However, the production company itself cannot provide lyrics, which is undoubtedly a shortcoming.

However, lacking the blemish of being a lyricist, Iwahashi Shinichi prepared to use another method to make up for it.
