Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 753
Sony chose the latter between Yoko Minano and Seiko Matsuda, and this has not changed.

However, know yourself and your enemy.

Shinichi Iwahashi is actually very curious. With Seiko Matsuda's way of declaring independence, she can justly get ahead of Yoko Minano and use other idols as a shield. Is this the only plan she has for declaring independence this time? Woolen cloth?

According to the fact that she is "not renewing the contract" with SUNMUSIC instead of "breaking the contract halfway", this year is the year for her to renew the contract.If you miss this year, as soon as the next contract is signed, if you want to take action in a short period of time, it will be a breach of contract. At that time, the lawsuit will be full first, which is not the style of Seiko Matsuda.

Matsuda Seiko, who is so unprofitable and doesn't act rashly without a plan, will never pin all her hopes on such a major event as independence. Maybe there will be a popular female idol to become independent and help her in this year. She attracts firepower on this sort of thing.

Therefore, this idol who killed the firm by surprise must have a backup plan.

Shinichi Iwahashi was just curious, what would Seiko Matsuda have done without Yoko Minano.Even if Sony stands behind her, if there is no Yoko Minano, a chicken waiting to be killed, then even if she has Sony's support, she will definitely lose a layer of skin.

"What is the work plan of Matsuda Seiko-san after independence?" Iwahashi Shinichi went to Sakai Masatoshi just to find out about this matter.

No matter what Ren Sakai Masatoshi thought, he never thought that Iwahashi Shinichi invited him to drink because he wanted to ask such an inexplicable question.

It is better to be asked a tough question than to be asked a stupid question.

"That's not clear. I'm not in charge of Matsuda's work." Sakai Masatoshi said honestly.

However, after finishing talking, I couldn't hold back my curiosity. I wanted to know what Yanqiao Shinichi was planning, "Why are you interested in Matsuda's independence?"

"I'm also a producer, Sakai-san." Iwahashi Shin smiled, "Besides, there are many songwriters waiting for me to support. Seiko-san is independent, maybe he will plan a transformation or something, when the time comes , maybe I can send her a song and cooperate with her."

Sakai Masatoshi reacted for a while, and said with a smile: "So that's the idea."

"Exactly. As a producer, it's a bit inappropriate to come here to inquire about news from you, who is also a producer, but since you are not in charge of Sheng Zisang's work, instead, let me relax a bit and ask with a thick skin. a bit."

Iwahashi Shinichi wasn't talking nonsense.

Although when he heard the news that Matsuda Seiko became independent before Minano Yoko, he felt like he was being put together.But to be honest, the one who was really put together was not him, but Yoko Minano.

Yanqiao Shenyi has never met Seiko Matsuda, so it is impossible to say whether he likes or dislikes her.

If this top idol falls into a ditch and has nothing to gain, he will not reach out to someone he has never met.But if there is an opportunity in this top idol, he will reach out to grab it when he thinks he can grab it.

In the same way, if playing with her can open up the situation, he doesn't mind retaliating in the same way as others, and he will play with Seiko Matsuda a little.

However, these are things in the future.As far as the current situation is concerned, the main purpose of asking Sakai Masatoshi about Matsuda Seiko's movements is to find out what he is curious about.

"Since it's because of this, directly..." Sakai Masatoshi originally wanted to say, asking him to directly contact Matsuda Seiko's guardian at the record company - this person is now also the person in charge of her new office.

However, after thinking about it, he changed his mind and said, "I'll keep an eye out for you later."

"Thank you so much, Sakai-san." Iwahashi Shinichi raised his glass.

Sakai Masatoshi swung his glass at him and took a sip.After thinking about it, I suddenly mentioned, "Your cooperation with Nanye is over?"

"The recording studio part is over." Iwahashi Shinichi replied.

Afterwards, the song was released, and the three girls went to the TV station to promote it.

"At this juncture, if the matter of independence is brought to the fore, it will be difficult to handle." Sakai Masatoshi unexpectedly brought up the matter of Yoko Minano's independence, "Nanye dare not, and Tokura-kun should not." dare."

"That's right." Yanqiao nodded cautiously.

The production, release and promotion period of this planned album are his reliance.

Sakai Masatoshi suddenly mentioned Yoko Minano, although it was unexpected, but it makes sense after thinking about it.As early as when Shinichi Iwahashi asked him, "Can Sony keep two idols at the same time", Sakai Masatoshi guessed that Shinichi Iwahashi paid attention to Yoko Minamino.

To be honest, Iwahashi Shinichi is the former between the "Nanye School" and the "Shengzi School".Sakai Masatoshi saw this, but said nothing.Neither intends to get involved in such matters, nor does it stand by completely.

However, rather than saying that he has good intentions, it is better to say that he wants to see what this young producer will do——

On the premise that he is not affected, Sakai Masatoshi is willing to provide a little convenience for him to watch the show.

Moreover, Sakai Masatoshi was still curious, if Iwahashi Shinichi wanted to intervene in this matter, what was the reason?Yoko Minano's current situation, no matter how she sees it, she won't benefit from it.

Masatoshi Sakai couldn't think of a third reason why Shinichi Iwahashi was so caring, besides Yoko Minano being a relative of Shinichi Iwahashi's family, or having some unexplainable relationship between the two of them.

It's impossible to be obliged to her just because she made a song for her.

"Seiko-san, I'll leave it to you later." However, Iwahashi Shinichi stopped the topic and didn't continue talking about Yoko Minano.

He knew in his heart that it didn't matter if Sakai Masatoshi wanted to watch the excitement, it was better than indifference.

Yanqiao Shinichi stopped here, and Sakai Masatoshi couldn't ask any more questions.Since it's a show to watch the excitement, it's not easy to inquire too much.At this time, he was ambiguous, just agree to the matter.

After agreeing to agree, I still couldn't help but think that this young producer is much more scheming than he imagined.

However, Sakai Masatoshi does not dislike such scheming.

……

Of course, Iwahashi Shinichi didn't want nothing, he planned it so carefully just to help Yoko Minano.Similarly, it is not just for the sake of his title of "friend of the underground music circle", soliciting THE BLUE HEARTS, a hot potato.

THE BLUE HEARTS is a band whose core characters are lead singer Hiroto Komoto and guitarist Mashima Masatoshi.Most of the music is composed by these two people, and in terms of musical concept, these two people are also the most compatible.

When the two first met each other, they each had their own bands.But they hit it off right away, and quickly got rid of their original partner and came together to form the current THE BLUE HEARTS.During the period, there were disagreements and almost broke up, but Hiroto Komoto wrote a song to Mashima Masari, which moved him, and the good partner (base) partner (friend) never mentioned the matter of breaking up.

It's the same now, when encountering troubles and dilemmas, they all reach a consensus that they will never bow to the record company.The core character is so tough, the opinions of the other two teammates are also affected, and they decide to fight to the end.But on the other hand, the two teammates who can work with this good pair of gay friends to make their mainstream debut, and then go back to the underground from the mainstream, either agree with their ideas, or they can follow their two ideas.

Today, whether the band advances or retreats, it is stuck on whether it can solve the problem of the record company.

Not only do we have to resolve the dispute with the currently deadlocked record company, but we also have to get other record companies to actively fight for them.

Mineshima has been in the underground music circle for many years, and he has long been familiar with the name of this band. From the bottom of his heart, he believes that the band has considerable talents that can not only support their mainstream debut, but also make them popular.

When the band encountered such a thing, Mineshima felt sorry for them, and at the same time was angry at the record company's arbitrariness.I told Yanqiao Shenyi, hoping that he could make a move.Now, the wish has come true, and Mineshima is working hard to help Shinichi Iwahashi meet the band again.

The lead singer of the band, Hiroto Komoto, has a wayward style. Although he is a top student who got into the Faculty of Economics of Hosei University, he was called "mentally retarded" by his teacher in middle school because he was too free-wheeling and didn't listen to others.

It's unreliable to talk about things with such a guy who is hot for 3 minutes in daily life and regrets as soon as he says he regrets it.Mineshima probably knew about this in his heart, so he directly contacted Mashima Masari.

Compared with Hiroto Komoto, Mashima Masatoshi is a "normal person" who can communicate well with him.

Convince Mashima Changli, and then let him go back to persuade Komoto Hiroto.

"In short, Iwahashi-san is very concerned about this matter, and hopes to meet with the band." Mineshima told Mashima Masari at the tavern where they agreed to meet.

"Yanqiao-san is very concerned?"

Mashima Masato had heard the name Iwahashi Shinichi before, but he didn't agree to meet without hesitation when he heard the name.

"That's right." Mineshima thought for a while, didn't say much else, only mentioned one thing, "I told Iwahashi-san—don't worry—Mashima-kun said that this incident is enough to write a song .”

Of course Mashima Masatoshi didn't care that Mineshima relayed his words to Iwahashi Shinichi.He silently waited for the next sentence.

"Yanqiao-san listened to it and said that he wanted to hear such a piece of music."

These words were relayed by Mineshima, which is actually Yanqiao Shinichi's support for the band.

Hearing this, Mashima Masato smiled.He is a shy, slightly neurotic young man.However, his big innocent eyes made him look like a restrained teenager.

"The tune is written," he said.

Mineshima showed an appreciative expression.Mashima Masato touched the wine glass with his fingers, his eyes touched his fingers, and said unhurriedly, "The cadres from Mitsubishi called the band and warned us to be sensible."

"So," he continued with the harmless appearance of a shy teenager, "I wrote a song about that phone call very sensibly."

"Okay." Mineshima laughed.

"Mineshima-san said, Iwahashi-san wants to hear such a song?" Mashima Masari confirmed.

"That's right. Yanqiao-san also specifically told me that if I hear the song when it is written, I will tell him. Listen to him, and then I will go to your performance." Mineshima said.

"Now there are only lyrics and music samples, and they haven't been arranged yet."

Mashima Masari whispered, "However, if Iwahashi-san wants to hear it, you can play it to him."

……

The song written by Mashima Masatoshi is called "Servant はここに立っているよ" (I will always stand here).

The title of the song is tough enough, and the lyrics and music are all written by this seemingly neurotic but harmless young man.

Both Mineshima and Mashima Masato thought that Iwahashi Shinichi was the first person to meet the band.Little did he know, not only had he seen the band's performance a few years ago, but because the band had already planned their mainstream debut at that time, he automatically lost commercial interest in them.

Even so, after watching the performance, because he thought the band's songs were good, Iwahashi Shinichi bought the band's album and presented them to the girls who came to the performance from Rabbit Country, as well as the jewel in the crown of women's rock and roll — Joan Jeter.

It has been a few years since the incident happened, and Shinichi Iwahashi thought it was a small episode and forgot about it.

It was this time, first mentioned by Mineshima, and then by the first edition of "MUSICA", which reminded him of these old events.At that time, I never imagined that one day, I would intervene in the matter of this band.

According to his judgment at the time, this band should have debuted in the mainstream, and then it should be smooth sailing.As a result, such a big crisis happened just after taking a step forward.

But on the other hand, if it hadn't been for Lou Zi, he wouldn't have returned to the underground after a few years, and he would have come up with a song called "I will always stand here".

After Mashima Masatoshi and Mineshima met, the two agreed and agreed on a time to meet Iwahashi Shinichi.Mashima Masatoshi is quite confident that as long as he agrees to meet Iwahashi Shinichi, he can make decisions on behalf of the other three members of the band.

Yanqiao Shenyi listened to Mineshima's report, thought for a while, and then suggested, "Listening to the songs of punk bands is not enough in a tea shop or in a recording studio. ... Is the band interested in going to our LIVEHOUSE for a performance? Just right Reveal new song."

On their side, they don't charge any venue usage fees for the band, and they will also help with advertising.

"Let the band perform at our LIVEHOUSE?" Mineshima was unexpected.

Through the phone, Iwahashi Shinichi took it easy, "That's it. Why don't you tell the band's Mashima-kun." After a pause, "Also, discuss with the band. On the day of the performance, it is allowed to be in the LIVEHOUSE. Get the camera ready."

"Yanqiao-san still wants to record the band's performance?" Mineshima felt overwhelmed by being led by the nose by his former apprentice.

Yanqiao nodded cautiously, "I hope so."

"However, from meeting and listening to music to going to LIVEHOUSE to perform..."

Mineshima was still unsure about whether or not the band would change their mind with such a sudden development.

But Shinichi Iwahashi thinks that the band will not reject such a proposal - the person who can write "I will always stand here" does not want to be bored at home as an uncle in the nest, but hopes that others will I know, he is the uncle.

"Okay, I'll contact Mashima-kun again." Mineshima had no choice.

"If the band agrees, I will leave it to Mineshima-san for the time of the show and promotion."

Yanqiao Shinichi ordered in an orderly manner.
