Flying over the bubble era
Chapter 788
Chapter 788
Asking Zhou Fang Yuxiong as an agent is to lead the wolf into the house.
Shinichi Iwahashi didn't believe such a simple and obvious truth, but Misa Watanabe and Mayumi Watanabe didn't know it.
Zhou Fangyuxiong's road to wealth is to use both soft and hard methods, using both black and white, to bring the small office under his control.Accustomed to such tactics, if the band's management contract really falls into his hands, it will definitely become a weapon for him to threaten to control GENZO.
Not only that, the reason why BURNING can make a fortune so quickly has a lot to do with Zhou Fangyu Xiong's use of his soft and hard methods to get involved in the music copyrights held by other firms, and then make profits through copyright management.
Now, GENZO holds the topical band THE BLUE HEARTS in hand, and ZARD, which is strongly promoted, has achieved initial results, and BOLAN, which is strongly promoted, has just shown its prominence in the project.The record company has a bright future and is full of good cards, but lacks the ability to resist risks.
Under such circumstances, you can neither make enemies for yourself, nor let such ambitious people get involved.
After Iwahashi Shin expressed his attitude of "Never ask BURNING to be the band's manager", he stopped talking and waited for Mayumi Watanabe's continuation.
"That's it."
Watanabe Wanyumi then began to talk about her own thoughts, "Right now, we must make friends with Zhou Fangsang, and we cannot be enemies with him. However, the methods and means we need to use to make friends with Zhou Fangsang must be able to make us retreat completely. It is like Like the band Heaven."
Even if they give up and give up, it will not affect their own development pace.
"For a person like Zhou Fangsang, if he shares the benefits equally with him, he will think he is at a disadvantage. Therefore, BURNING must not be involved." She finally revealed her plan.
Not only can't give BURNING, including those "BURNING departments" who are closely related to BURNING, but also definitely don't allow brokers to make appointments with these firms.
"If you want to release the brokerage appointment, let it go to a company that Zhou Fangsang's influence cannot affect."
This sentence is what Watanabe Wanyumi and Watanabe Misa behind her really think.
"My mother suggested to me to approach the firm that was founded at the same time as BURNING and even Watanabe Production. The established firm has been in the industry for many years and has strong strength." Watanabe Wanyumi said Watanabe Misa's plan.
This is a safe approach, and it is Misa Watanabe's idea.The old firm was earlier than BURNING, and started business at the same time as BURNING.
In addition, if you really get in touch with an established firm, the face made by Watanabe can also be used.
Watanabe Manyumi came out of the family, and his career is doing well. Unlike the Watanabe Production Headquarters, which is declining in the west, it is now thriving.
With energy and prospects, those contacts that Watanabe has no longer needed, and those contacts that have gradually been cut off, let her contact them again, and maybe they can be connected again, and then they will be in her hands.
Watanabe Misa did not forget in her heart that Watanabe Wanyumi has the fire made by Watanabe on her body.
But Yanqiao Shinichi listened to the advice given by Misa Watanabe, but remained silent.
Wanyumi Watanabe seemed to have expected such a reaction from him a long time ago, so she didn't urge him and waited for the next step.
"Can I say 'no'? Manyumi-san." Iwahashi Shinichi asked her.
His way of choosing words and sentences, to Watanabe Mayumi's ears, seemed a little funny, and it was almost impossible to hear him speak in this way.
But the more strange it sounds, the more important it is to say.
Watanabe Manyumi knew it well, looked at Iwahashi Shinichi, "Then I have to hear your reason for saying 'no'."
Although the two walked side by side, what they thought and carried in their hearts were not the same thing.
Iwahashi Shinichi slowly said to her, "Manyumi-san, we have cooperated with AMUSE in the women's rock music festival, and we jointly owned ZARD with Star Office, and these offices are not BURNING....Although the president of AMUSE, Osato, was once received It was funded by Zhou Fangsang, but it has already left the BURNING department."
As for the Star Office, it has nothing to do with BURNING.
AMUSE itself is a music-based firm that uses singers to raise actors. Xingchen has already let ZARD go, so should they let them have the ready-made band THE BLUE HEARTS?
Watanabe Wanyu turned his mind and understood what Yanqiao Shinichi really thought.He is ambitious.
"Instead of going back and communicating with established big firms, my idea is," Iwahashi Shinichi told Watanabe Wanyumi, "we also consciously communicate with young but powerful mid-sized firms and small firms with potential. communicate."
At this stage, we need to cooperate with medium-sized firms that BURNING dares and cannot get involved in, and keep a low profile.On the other hand, grow yourself slowly, and then let small firms gather around them.
Do both, until the day when a new alliance is established enough to compete with the huge BURNING department.
"In the past, there were complicated relationships between the established firms. Perhaps with the help of Misa-san, Wanyu Misan could inherit the connections of the Watanabe family. But as the times move forward, it is better to re-enter than to join forces with established firms. It is easy to jump out of the shackles, it is better to actively cooperate with young and energetic firms."
Established firms can bring newcomers to them for production, but Yanqiao Shinichi is unwilling to present his newcomers to these old guys.
If it is to continue to bind with the established forces, then Watanabe Mayumi does not need to come out to separate.
What's more, the old forces have thoroughly grasped their own territory, and the young forces are leaning towards them. If they don't make the old guys die, they will never have a bright future.
Misa Watanabe's proposal to her daughter is safe and secure, but after all, she has her limitations. After all, it is still the same way of getting seniority and becoming the leader again.
It cannot be said that this idea is wrong, but it is different from what Yanqiao Shinichi thought.
It's just that denying Misa Watanabe's suggestion to Wanyumi Watanabe means that she has spoken again.
"Is this reason for saying 'no' acceptable?" Yanqiao Shenyi asked.
Mayumi Watanabe blinked her eyes with a calm expression, "It's a good reason."
"So," Iwahashi Shin closed the band's page first, "Manyumi-san might as well consider my idea." He paused, "Take a step back, the band's management appointment will continue to be placed in U-MIZ It's also a way."
Shinichi Iwahashi spoke very quickly, but Manyumi Watanabe could only hear his determination from his voice.
To be honest, even if the brokerage appointment of THE BLUE HEARTS is assigned to an established firm, it will not affect the communication between them and the young firm that Yan Qiaoxin said. His stubbornness seems a bit willful at the moment.
But Mayumi Watanabe knew exactly what was going on in his mind, and she knew better why his mother suggested signing the band's management contract to an established firm.
A struggle that neither side has identified.
The point is not who THE BLUE HEARTS signs to, but which path to take in the future.
Only when the road is set, it doesn't matter who you sign to and who you sign with.
Yanqiao Shinichi is a person who cannot tolerate fate not being in his own hands.Wanyumi Watanabe has worked with him for many years and has experienced so much together. She is very clear about his temperament, ambition and ambition.
This time, it is not so much a matter of fighting for the place of THE BLUE HEARTS, but rather taking this opportunity to reveal his thoughts.
She didn't say anything, though.
The brokerage contract of THE BLUE HEARTS was put aside for a while.The failure to release the brokerage contract will not affect the band members' music making, nor will it affect the record company's preparations for the band's new album release.
Even, with the power of the previous documentary program, there is no need to do publicity.
……
The second volume of the project, after the three girls started playing songs on TV, with the good reputation of the songs, the sales were stable and good.
While the song was very popular, young women in their early 20s also found resonance in the lyrics of this delicate and close-to-the-heart of urban women. The lyrics of this song have sparked a lot of topic among urban women.
When the single was obtained, the production team of this song was ZARD, and the person who wrote the lyrics was the female lead singer of the band, Sachiko Kuchi.
This Puchi-san is not only the lead singer of the band, but she can also be seen on the inside pages of women's fashion magazines from time to time.She has a refreshing temperament and a good frame. She is quite popular among young urban women in terms of clothing and appearance.
Coupled with the lyrics that are good at describing the hearts of urban women, for a while, it became the topical singer among young women.
For female stars, being able to get the support of women means that the probability of becoming popular is higher.
But on the other hand, if female stars are widely hated by women, the difficulty of performing arts career will be increased, and they will be more prone to crisis.
During this week, the temporary idol group composed of three girls happily participated in the show, selling records bustlingly.And until the next week, it will be the cooperation between DREAMS COME TRUE and Yatsushiro Aki who will take over the baton.
The most popular band at the moment, accompanied by well-known big names in the industry.
In this week when the singles starring three girls are selling well, DREAMS COME TRUE's single "Eyes to me" has also completed the last step between becoming a million-dollar single.
At the end of October, this week's weekly chart was not yet settled, and the record store had spontaneously hung up big-character posters such as "Heisei's first million-dollar single was born!", celebrating the band lively.
"Heisei's first piece" just hits the Japanese's love of following suit.People who went to the record store saw this big-character poster, and no matter what they went to buy, they would take another copy of "Eyes to me".
Thanks to this last fire, the million-dollar single is a certainty.
……
At the end of the second week, this temporarily formed idol group sold 11 singles, a slight drop compared to Fuji Ayako and BOLAN in the first week.
The magnitude of this decline was expected, and when I chose to let the idol group take the second baton, I was ready for this.
But the good thing is that, except for the first two days, when the public stayed on the sidelines, the enthusiasm of the public was immediately mobilized when the publicity began. This point can be seen from the final sales figures.
As long as the seeds of "every song in the project album is a good song" sprout, the next step will be logical.
The sales volume of 11 copies was once again clean and neat, and it won the championship of the weekly singles list of the week.The collaborative single between Ayako Fuji and BOLAN continued to sell 3 copies this week, and got No.[-] on the list.
This project won another place in the top [-] singles list this year.
In addition, "Producer Shinichi Iwahashi's project has won the weekly singles chart for two consecutive weeks", which has become another point that the media can use to write about.
After the results have been achieved, it will be more swaying to write now.
Not only that, the name of DREAMS COME TRUE, which will take over next, is the guarantee of this year's sales. The single has not yet been released, and the pens are gearing up first, waiting to write the big-character poster of "three weeks in a row".
The project that half of the industry participated in was not only stress-free when it was touted, but also well done.
And the more the industry focused on touting, the name of Shinichi Iwahashi, who strung together the entire project, became louder and brighter.
Miwa-chan and Yatsushiro Aki are very good at singing.In this way, there is no need to worry that the cooperating singers will not be able to sing the band's songs.
After all, Meihejiang hummed it all by inspiration, but she herself is so good at singing that she is not limited by her voice at all.And Brother Nakamura is even more merciless in front of such a singing voice, he dares to write any tune——
There is no song that Meihechan can't sing.
This is probably the reason why the band has never received any singing invitations from singers since their debut.Those who sing their songs badly are punished publicly.
The single will be released, and the music program will naturally also be on.
However, unlike the hard work of the three female idols, the band and Yatsushiro Aki booked two shows this week.In addition, like the previous two combinations, the whole song is not sung.
From the beginning of Ayako Fuji and BOLAN to the end of the last single, they didn't sing the whole song.
The itinerary of the show was set in advance, and Shinichi Iwashi also vacated the time for rehearsal and formal participation in the show in advance. After the circus tour ended, he put on a giraffe headgear for a long time to perform.
But at the beginning of this November, on one side is the draft of this large-scale project that has a million-dollar single by a popular band, gathered the strength of half of the industry, and attracted the entire industry and the general public.
On the other side, the name of Seiko Matsuda was written in the most conspicuous place in the trailer of the entertainment magazine hung on the newsstand.
A few months ago, Seiko Matsuda's independence was raging, grabbing the public's attention.At that time, the first newspaper notice of the projected album was announced when the "Shengzi Independence Storm" was in full swing.
Coincidentally.
Now, the planning is in full swing, and the first two bombs have been a great success, whetting the appetite of the public.But even so, whether it is the first million-dollar single in Heisei or the success of the project, these are reports to the public and advertisements by the way.
Nothing is more attractive than gossip.
Compared with the name of Matsuda Seiko, this notice attracts the attention of the general public more.
On the notice of the magazine, it clearly reads: "The wicked woman Seiko Matsuda, betrayed all kinds of things of the former president of the firm, and disregarded the bold life of her husband and daughter late at night."
Just looking at the title trailer, the general public can't take their eyes off it.

Asking Zhou Fang Yuxiong as an agent is to lead the wolf into the house.
Shinichi Iwahashi didn't believe such a simple and obvious truth, but Misa Watanabe and Mayumi Watanabe didn't know it.
Zhou Fangyuxiong's road to wealth is to use both soft and hard methods, using both black and white, to bring the small office under his control.Accustomed to such tactics, if the band's management contract really falls into his hands, it will definitely become a weapon for him to threaten to control GENZO.
Not only that, the reason why BURNING can make a fortune so quickly has a lot to do with Zhou Fangyu Xiong's use of his soft and hard methods to get involved in the music copyrights held by other firms, and then make profits through copyright management.
Now, GENZO holds the topical band THE BLUE HEARTS in hand, and ZARD, which is strongly promoted, has achieved initial results, and BOLAN, which is strongly promoted, has just shown its prominence in the project.The record company has a bright future and is full of good cards, but lacks the ability to resist risks.
Under such circumstances, you can neither make enemies for yourself, nor let such ambitious people get involved.
After Iwahashi Shin expressed his attitude of "Never ask BURNING to be the band's manager", he stopped talking and waited for Mayumi Watanabe's continuation.
"That's it."
Watanabe Wanyumi then began to talk about her own thoughts, "Right now, we must make friends with Zhou Fangsang, and we cannot be enemies with him. However, the methods and means we need to use to make friends with Zhou Fangsang must be able to make us retreat completely. It is like Like the band Heaven."
Even if they give up and give up, it will not affect their own development pace.
"For a person like Zhou Fangsang, if he shares the benefits equally with him, he will think he is at a disadvantage. Therefore, BURNING must not be involved." She finally revealed her plan.
Not only can't give BURNING, including those "BURNING departments" who are closely related to BURNING, but also definitely don't allow brokers to make appointments with these firms.
"If you want to release the brokerage appointment, let it go to a company that Zhou Fangsang's influence cannot affect."
This sentence is what Watanabe Wanyumi and Watanabe Misa behind her really think.
"My mother suggested to me to approach the firm that was founded at the same time as BURNING and even Watanabe Production. The established firm has been in the industry for many years and has strong strength." Watanabe Wanyumi said Watanabe Misa's plan.
This is a safe approach, and it is Misa Watanabe's idea.The old firm was earlier than BURNING, and started business at the same time as BURNING.
In addition, if you really get in touch with an established firm, the face made by Watanabe can also be used.
Watanabe Manyumi came out of the family, and his career is doing well. Unlike the Watanabe Production Headquarters, which is declining in the west, it is now thriving.
With energy and prospects, those contacts that Watanabe has no longer needed, and those contacts that have gradually been cut off, let her contact them again, and maybe they can be connected again, and then they will be in her hands.
Watanabe Misa did not forget in her heart that Watanabe Wanyumi has the fire made by Watanabe on her body.

As for the Star Office, it has nothing to do with BURNING.
AMUSE itself is a music-based firm that uses singers to raise actors. Xingchen has already let ZARD go, so should they let them have the ready-made band THE BLUE HEARTS?
Watanabe Wanyu turned his mind and understood what Yanqiao Shinichi really thought.He is ambitious.
"Instead of going back and communicating with established big firms, my idea is," Iwahashi Shinichi told Watanabe Wanyumi, "we also consciously communicate with young but powerful mid-sized firms and small firms with potential. communicate."
