Flying over the bubble era

478 Chapter 478. One after another
"Manyumi-san, laughing at other people's suffering is very inferior." Iwahashi Shinichi protested.

Watanabe Wanyumi was not in a hurry, her conscience didn't feel condemned at all, "This is not mocking you." It's just a very ordinary feeling that it's funny.

Having worked with him for so long, it is not always possible to see this embarrassed look.

"..."

Come on, it's really funny and not a joke.

Iwahashi Shinichi gave up the boring matter of arguing with Wanyumi Watanabe, and turned to the main topic, "Has the contract with the radio station been negotiated?" He stood far away from Wanyumi Watanabe.

Although she laughed at her, Yanqiao Shinichi still ignored the past and tried his best not to pass on the cold to her.

"It's a good talk."

Wanyumi Watanabe put away her smile, "However, it took a lot of effort. Even if we pay the promotion fee for two songs, the radio station is not willing to play the song with a total duration of seven and a half minutes."

The point of commercial radio is that it is an "accompanying" entertainment medium.The scene of listening to this kind of radio station is often bored while driving, or taking a bath in the bathroom, and then turn on the radio to pass the time.

Because when the radio station is turned on, it is not to listen to a specific channel. If the current broadcast content is boring, the listener will immediately choose to switch channels.Therefore, when playing songs on the radio, the most important thing is the so-called "ear grabbing".

Songs that are too long will damage the public's sense of hearing, which is the consensus of commercial radio operators.

In addition, radio programs must consider the timing and frequency of the host's speech, and must accurately capture the timing of hourly and half-hour timekeeping, and ensure the frequency of advertisements broadcast within a certain period of time. The control of the timeline is extremely precise.

"It's easy to use money to solve publicity," she said, "but it doesn't work in places like radio."

In contrast, street publicity billboards with clearly marked prices are the simplest and crudest way of publicity.

The reason why the time of the radio station is stuck is that in a certain period of time, a certain song is played for too long, which will occupy the time of other links.Taking all aspects together, when commercial radio stations arrange programs, they will avoid choosing songs that are too long.

Advertising revenue is the lifeblood of radio station operations, and the publicity fees paid by the firm are nothing compared to it.

In current popular music, the mainstream approach is to control the duration of a song within 3 minutes to 5 minutes.

This customary practice, on the one hand, is because the earliest vinyl turntables can only record 5 minutes of content, so the operation of the entire record industry is based on the premise of "controlling the duration within 5 minutes".

On the other hand, it is also related to the way commercial radio stations avoid choosing too long songs.After all, playing songs on the radio used to be the most mainstream way of playing songs. Even with the advent of the TV era, it is still an important channel for publicity.

The observance of radio station rules has also contributed a lot to the pop music tradition of "three to five minutes".

Of course, three to five minutes is the mainstream, but it is not impossible to break.

For example, "Hey Jude" by the Beatles, or "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen, are long-to-die number one singles.

Pulling the Beatles and Queen out, this tone is really quite big.

"In the end, it was the staff of the firm who brought the single and visited every broadcasting station, asking the person in charge to try it out, and finally got their support."

Watanabe Wanyumi said, "It's not so much the staff that convinces the broadcasting bureau, but the song itself."

This is a direct compliment to the song "Future Vision II".

Shinichi Iwahashi confirmed with her, "When did the broadcast officially start?"

"From December [-]st." After Watanabe Wanyumi told him, she remembered something and told him as a gossip, "By the way, the staff of the office reported that the person in charge of the broadcasting bureau in Kansai, I like this song more than the ones on the Kanto side.”

The Red and White Song Club is going to be broadcast nationwide. For this publicity plan, Wanyumi Watanabe sent staff across the country to contact the local broadcasting bureau.However, the real focus is on Kanto and Kansai.

"Really?" Iwahashi Shinichi speculated that maybe Kansai people like the fireworks in this song.

Watanabe Wanyumi teased him with a smile: "When I heard about this, I thought, if Shinichi-kun is the person in charge of sales, maybe he will make use of this matter wantonly."

"It's too dangerous." Yanqiao Shinichi also laughed, "If it backfires, there's nowhere to cry."

"However, Masaki's brother-in-law is full of praise for your clever use of regional confrontation, saying that you have a fantastic idea." Watanabe Mayumi seems to be purely to tease him in the Fuji TV friendship program. The practice of pulling the topic.

"Forgive me." Yan Qiao shook his head.

Just kidding.Wanyumi Watanabe then told him, "The 'Shunji-san' you mentioned last time, my brother-in-law Masaki and I mentioned it."

"Ah." Yanqiao Shinichi also became serious.

Watanabe Wanyumi said, "Brother-in-law Masaki sent me the short films and commercials he made."

"how do you feel?"

"How should I put it?" She thought about it, "I can understand your idea of ​​proposing him. In terms of dealing with "Kitchen", this 'Jun Er-san' is more worth looking forward to than 'Jun Yi-san'."

"However, there are still many shortcomings." Wanyumi Watanabe changed the subject, "Whether he can direct this movie independently or not is still a question mark."

"Hmm." Yanqiao Shinichi didn't know what to say.

Watanabe Wanyumi looked at his expression, and said: "However, as you said, 'feeling' is very important. So, I asked Masaki's brother-in-law to communicate with Iwai-san, and the "Kitchen" library novel also Gave him a copy."

"Just give him a week," she said, "and then let him see what he thinks."

This is a chance for Shunji Iwai.

However, although this "juner sang" has a promising future, he is still an unknown novice after all, so it is really uncertain how successful he will be.

Wanyumi Watanabe contacted Shunji Iwai, perhaps because of Shinichi Iwahashi's face.Of course, the reason she was willing to give Iwai Shunji a chance must be because Iwai Shunji had something to impress her.

On the matter of distinguishing between public and private, there is no need to doubt Watanabe Mayumi's attitude.

"By the way, what about the three candidates you are currently selecting?" Yanqiao Shenyi asked.

"Morita-san, there is a movie currently in production, which is scheduled to be released in January next year. After that, another movie will be set up immediately, and the shooting time will be about three weeks."

"The itinerary is really tight."

"I sent him the original novel. Morita-san is not uninterested, but if we want to shoot it, we have to wait until he finishes the movie next year."

"Where's Ichikawa-san?"

"Come one by one." Wanyumi Watanabe said.

Obedient and listen to the sound, Morita Yoshimitsu couldn't shoot, so he went to discuss with Jun Ichikawa.In terms of seniority, seniority and status in the industry are there. Ichikawa will definitely be able to make movies that Morita Yoshimitsu will not make, but he cannot let Morita Yoshimitsu make movies that his juniors will not make.

At least Wanyumi Watanabe can't let this kind of thing happen in the movie she is preparing.

As for the safety card Nagasaki Shunichi, he can definitely rest assured about his itinerary.

After talking a lot, Iwahashi Shin's mouth was dry and his throat felt like it was on fire. Watanabe Mayumi asked the clerk to bring over tea again.

"You have a hard enough cold." She finally showed concern.

Yanqiao Shenyi sighed, "It's not the right time."

"It can't be helped." Wanyumi Watanabe asked him suddenly, "How does Shinichi-kun eat?"

"What?" Shinichi Iwahashi responded.

"You should pay attention to your diet during a cold, so that you can recover quickly." Wanyumi Watanabe said, and then changed the subject, "However, for a bachelor like Shinichi-kun, it's probably hard to expect you to make a decent menu."

"Please be merciful, Manyumi-san." Iwahashi Shinichi, who couldn't make a decent menu, sighed.Not in good health, not even the energy to refute her.

Wanyumi Watanabe seemed to be looking for trouble, and laughed at his dejected look, "I was thinking, you might be able to refute 'not a bachelor'."

"I would, too."

Shinichi Iwahashi's aura was suppressed by the cold, and he could only be beaten by Wanyumi Watanabe.

Fortunately, she knew how to show mercy.

"In that case, if you don't mind someone coming to your house," Mayumi Watanabe said to him, "How about I introduce you to a nutritionist with first-class cooking skills and help you prepare the latest diet menu?"

Listen, you really deserve to be a domineering president.

If it were an ordinary person, they could only ask to drink more hot water.

"This is too exciting to mobilize the crowd." Yanqiao Shenyi laughed hard.

Watanabe Wanyumi didn't know that the reason why he laughed was because he thought of the famous saying "drink more hot water", and replied seriously, "That's not a big move. As long as you give her a copy of the spare key, other things will be done." There's no need to worry."

"How?" Wanyumi Watanabe asked him for an answer.

It sounds quite worry-free, and Yanqiao Shinichi was really moved.A well-built man gets sick every now and then, and it's almost like breaking him down.

Once a person becomes lazy, he will stop hesitating and say when he is comfortable first, "Then please, Wanyumi-san."

"Okay, I'll call." Watanabe Wanyu said.

So, in the following week, thanks to the domineering president, Shinichi Iwahashi lived a life where someone took care of his food, and he was able to hold the heroine script firmly.

……

This time the cold came on fiercely. After the first few days, although the symptoms were relieved, they still couldn't get better. Not only that, but also accompanied by various discomforts.

Shinichi Iwahashi did not dare to go to the recording studio in Shinano Town, and the recording studio in Yoyogi only occasionally went to have a look.

When I went there once, I met Yukiko Okada working there. I was surprised to see Shinichi Iwahashi's half face covered by a mask and his listless look. "Are you sick?"

"It's just a small cold." Yanqiao Shinichi told her.

However, looking at you, it doesn't look like a "little" cold at all.Okada Yukiko was worried about him, and it was necessary to tell him to pay attention to his body.

After finishing the exhortation, I thought of one thing and mentioned it to him, "Yanqiao-san, Ming Cai-san also had a bad cold a while ago."

"Oh." Yanqiao Shen knew early on.

Okada Yukiko looked at Shinichi Iwahashi, and then thought of Nakamori Akina who was listless and hoarse on the phone before, and suddenly felt funny.

"Yesterday, I called Ming Cai-san and heard from her that the cold is gone." She finally couldn't help laughing, "I didn't expect that when I saw you today, your cold was so serious."

During this severe cold, the women around Shinichi Iwahashi tried their best to make fun of him.

Yanqiao Shinichi was not afraid to drink hot water, and responded calmly, "Probably because the temperature has dropped recently."

"Um……"

Okada Yukiko nodded, but couldn't help but secretly looked at Iwahashi Shinichi's face.

After having the idea that "Iwahashi-san and Akina-san might be familiar", Okada Yukiko often wanted to confirm whether her reasoning answer was correct, so when a certain person was mentioned in front of these two people, she always subconsciously to look at.

"Anyway," Shinichi Yanqiao is not in good health, and his condition is not very good. He didn't realize that he was being observed by Detective Okada at all, and told her, "You should pay more attention to your health, but don't catch a cold."

It would be a bit funny if Yukiko Okada came again after Akina Nakamori and him.

"Okay." Okada Yukiko obediently agreed.

……

A day later, Okada Yukiko talked with Nakamori Akina on the phone, and on the phone, she talked about Iwahashi Shinichi's bad cold.

"...I saw it yesterday in Yoyogi's recording studio, and it was hard to watch." Okada Yukiko said.

Akina Nakamori was very surprised, "Is that so?" This overreaction was due to the fact that she just had a cold, and Shinichi Iwahashi fell ill immediately.

After meeting last time, the two of them have been busy with their own business for the past few days.It was the end of the busy year, the cold was gone, and the office hurriedly arranged all the music promotions that should be done. Akina Nakamori's sick leave came to an end, and he returned to the busy end of the year.

However, although she didn't make a phone call, she did receive a reply from Iwahashi Shinichi afterwards.

The subject of the letter is, of course, the impressions about tasting the single. Other than that, it is trivial daily life.The letter was obviously written after meeting her, but even so it was an interesting read for her.

Even if you can meet and chat, talk freely.Writing a letter is still a completely different feeling than reading it.Nakamori Akina finished reading the letter, but before writing a reply, she was still thinking about how to stump Iwahashi Shinichi.

So, she quietly decided not to send the letter and the origami until she learned a new origami, and asked him to accept her challenges.

"Akina-san is also surprised, right?"

On the phone, Okada Yukiko's voice interrupted Akina Nakamori's thoughts, "What a coincidence."

Nakamori Akina let out a "huh".I thought to myself, should I make a phone call to comfort Iwahashi Shinichi later.

Okada Yukiko felt that "it's hard work", which sounds serious enough.

Okada Yukiko felt that Nakamori Akina's surprise just now was a bit too much, and it made the normal reaction now abnormal and too plain.

She wanted to say something, but hesitated again.
