Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 796
In the middle of the night, the banquet held in a certain garden in Tokyo was just getting lively.

Among the attendees were the producers of the TV station, people from the media, and the person in charge of the firm.No matter which one, it can be regarded as having a head and a face.But at the banquet tonight, these people are willing to be stars holding the moon.

No one else, because the center of tonight's banquet is none other than Zhou Fangyuxiong, the overlord of the entertainment world.

Black and white take both, stomping and stomping half of the entertainment world would tremble, such a big man, just looking at his appearance, he is just an ordinary middle-aged man like a farming uncle.

Not only that, but his attitude is kind and approachable, making it difficult for people to associate with the cruel and merciless image in the rumors.Of course, with Zhou Fang Yuxiong's current status, there is no need to put his viciousness on the surface anymore.

Anyway, there is a reward for listening to him, and if you offend him, you will be severely punished. Everyone in the industry knows this well.

While BURNING has a tough attitude towards the outside world, Zhou Fangyuxiong is very polite to practitioners in the TV industry and media people.Treating guests every three to five times, and ordering some red seee from time to time, how thoughtful and thoughtful you must be——

The premise is that after eating and drinking, you can be soft-handed and talkative, honest and obedient.

"In April next year, our music program will probably be adjusted." The producer of NTV said this.

At the beginning, NTV's "STAR!Birth" opened the idol era in the Japanese music scene.Afterwards, even after the show ended, the wind of idols did not stop, and it continued for several years. It was not until the last two years that the fever began to visibly subside.

In the first half of this year, the band took turns to smash male and female idols, which put this matter on the table.

Right now, needless to say, is the age of the band.

Idols have lost their previous value, and TV stations have to consider adjusting their programs, appropriately reducing idol variety shows, and making corresponding changes to the song-playing programs that originally mainly served idols.

Compared with the sales in the record market, it is not as good as before. The most fatal blow to idols is that even the TV stations do not intend to continue to revolve around idols.

Idols who pay attention to visual effects and need to show their faces on TV shows from time to time will become more difficult to stand out and be forgotten by the audience if they lack channels of exposure.

Once the TV stations are tightened, the situation in the idol industry will become even more severe.Not only that, but the competition among idols will also become more intense.

"No matter how you look at it, it's time for the band to shine. Not only the band, but also talented singer-songwriters have gradually attracted the attention of the public."

It was the media people present who took over the words, "If you want to say, the rise of creative bands has made the audience pay more attention to the songs themselves. Furthermore, they are also interested in those singer-songwriters who don't appear in public very much. "

It's not hard to imagine the rise of songwriting bands, and even the attention of singers.

"Speaking of which, the band craze this time is also fueled by a talent show."

Hearing someone mention this, Zhou Fang Yuxiong let out a "huh", not very happy.At the beginning of the year, this show was given up by the daughter of producer Watanabe. After BURNING took over, it started off well, but in the second half of the year, the ratings and topicality began to decline.

This speed is so fast that it is unexpected.

NTV's "STAR!"Birth", but it took 13 years to draw the curtain.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong looked at Watanabe Shin and Watanabe Misa's face, so he couldn't embarrass Watanabe Wanyumi openly.But she was very knowledgeable, and she gave up the program that had just been completed, with such a demeanor that even Zhou Fang Yuxiong had nothing to say.

It's just that when I took the golden egg over, I didn't expect it to unfold like this.

To be honest, idols and bands are two completely different things. "STAR!"Birth" can continuously deliver distinctive girls (and a small number of boys), train them, and arrange their debut.

However, it is much more difficult to form a band that can be seen.In other words, a person who participates in an idol audition can be a blank slate, but those who participate in a band audition can still leave an impression on people are at least six or seven finished products, not even semi-finished products.

From this point of view, it is not incomprehensible that "Band Heaven" will not last long.However, after Zhou Fang Yuxiong came back to his senses, he couldn't help thinking in his heart, when Manyumi Watanabe was making this show, did he know that this show would not last long?
Or, did she and the man behind her have a solution?

That man named Iwahashi Shinichi.Zhou Fang Yuxiong thought of this name thoughtfully.

This year, this name can be said to have stole the limelight, everyone in the industry knows it, and even the general public pays more attention to him.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong believed that the situation in the industry was under control, but he did not expect that a force would rise so quickly.Before he could react—even BURNING singers participated in the project he produced, and overnight, this person became the focus of the industry's attention.Not only did he gain both fame and fortune, but he was also accepted by the Record Association, and he was recognized by the industry in one fell swoop from a small, unknown company.

Such a talent, even Zhou Fang Yuxiong would praise him in his heart.

After the praise is over, I feel a pity again. ...It's a pity that it can't be used by him.If this Yanqiao Shinichi came to BURNING to be the first manager, it would definitely be a good weapon that he could use.

However, this Iwahashi Shinichi established a production company at the same time that Watanabe Wanyumi set up another company, and the two have been working together since then. Outsiders can't help but think about it, maybe as early as when he resigned to set up a production company, he got it. Produced by Watanabe.

Zhou Fangyuxiong himself is best at providing funds to big brokers in other firms to help them establish their own businesses and expand their influence.I judge others by myself, and I think that Shinichi Iwahashi may not be the direct descendant of Watanabe.

Not only that, but Shinichi Iwahashi has a close relationship with Wanyumi Watanabe.These two people are about the same age and act in tacit understanding. It is not surprising that he will become the son-in-law of the Watanabe family someday.

Standing behind him was a man made by Watanabe.Zhou Fang Yuxiong wanted to get close to Yanqiao Shinichi, but he couldn't make a move for a while.

Previously, BURNING came forward to thank the introduction for the hot sale of the single that Ayako Fuji and the band collaborated with. Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to establish a connection with Shinichi Iwahashi.

As a result, the producer couldn't hold back, and at the appreciation meeting, he came and went with Sakai Masatoshi, the producer of Fuji Ayako, making the atmosphere weird, and the manager of the firm was not good at talking nonsense, and in the end it was all over Of.

...He is said to be a great producer, but he is also called a "hero" by outsiders.But the real person is still small-bellied and can't hold his breath.Zhou Fang Yuxiong thought of the manager's impression of Yanqiao Shinichi, and felt that it was both funny and expected.

People who have achieved something at a young age are the easiest to be conceited, and they are also the easiest to stumble because of their conceit.

But for Zhou Fang Yuxiong, knowing Yanqiao Shinichi's weakness made him more at ease.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong has long planned to reach out to the record industry, but now that he is in the entertainment industry, he is too lazy to start from scratch. The ideal is to reach out to a promising small record company.

Iwahashi Shinichi's GENZO is also produced by Watanabe and Takeda Printing Company, so it is difficult to reach out.

Even if Zhou Fang Yuxiong intends to get involved, a self-made person like Iwahashi Shinichi who has no background can still use both soft and hard tactics to get him to agree, but Watanabe Production and Takeda Printing Company are both objects that even if they try their best to make friends, it may not work.

However, if it is difficult to reach out, it does not necessarily mean that you cannot reach out.

This Yanqiao Shinichi has no background, and has a weakness of small belly, so it may not be possible for him to take advantage of the loopholes.Zhou Fang Yuxiong is not willing to give up his hand to GENZO, so he will not ruin the relationship with Watanabe Productions, and for the time being, he will not stumbling Watanabe Mayumi.

Zhou Fangyuxiong directly picked the fruit for the band Heavenly Kingdom last time.Now that the fruit is gone, there is nothing else to do.This time, all he wanted was to get involved.

Although GENZO joined the Record Association, it relied on the fame of Shinichi Iwahashi.There are two groups of bands launched by the company, one group is already famous, and the other group has just participated in this project, and we don't know what will happen afterwards.

Coupled with the newly signed, sensational THE BLUE HEARTS, they hold a lot of good-looking cards.

There are talents, but opportunities are lacking.In Zhou Fangyuxiong's opinion, if BURNING's strength in the industry is there to help out, this fruit tree will surely grow into a towering tree.

But in turn...

If GENZO is really monolithic and BURNING's hand cannot reach in, the two sides will be the biggest enemies.

BURNING's position in the arts industry is already unshakable, and the record industry is not an industry that has closed its doors. On the contrary, it has a lot of opportunities.Because of this, that Iwahashi Shinichi had the opportunity to join in.

There is more than one "Iwahashi Shinichi" character in the industry.Maybe those people don't have the talent of Shinichi Iwahashi, but if they have the help from BURNING that Shinichi Iwahashi doesn't have, they may not be able to kill GENZO.

Zhou Fangyu Xiong prepared with both hands.

Don't take your eyes off GENZO, but also pay attention to other such small companies in the industry, find something that can be cultivated from them, and support them.

When the time comes, he can reach into GENZO, and he doesn't mind eating the fruit of another peach tree.If the abacus is empty, the other cultivated company is a sharp weapon against GENZO.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong is not only good at motivating other firms' agents to become independent, but also good at poaching the trump cards of other firms.Back then, Johnny's top idol Go Hiromi was poached by him himself.

When Go Hiromi left, he also took away several Jr who were being trained. That incident severely damaged Johnny's vitality, and it took him several years to recover.

You can do this when dealing with the firm.When that day really comes, it is not afraid to deal with small record companies.

……

The reception banquet is over, and before the participants leave, there are other good gifts. The managers of the BURNING headquarters helped to see off the guests, and the lively banquet hall gradually calmed down.

After leaving only his real family members behind, Zhou Fang Yuxiong continued to talk at night with the firm's direct descendants.

"Next year's record industry will definitely be dominated by bands."

We all sit together and say the same thing.Rather, it is an obvious fact.The only suspense is nothing more than how long this craze will last, whether it will be three to five years, or longer.

In addition, idol programs are cut, so what will happen to the idols who have lost exposure, how to transform, and what the BURNING department can gain from this, all have to be planned in advance.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong used his brains, and suddenly mentioned, "Let's set up a modeling agency again." He showed a slightly mocking smile, "There are always idols who can't make it, so why don't you switch to a photo idol?"

Since Yue Dui would rather stay in the industry, of course BURNING will provide a platform for such idols.The sales of famous idols are not far behind.

While making up his mind like this, Zhou Fangyu Xiong was already thinking about who to send to take care of the new office.There is no need to go out of the way to poach other brokers, just find someone from within the firm to do it.

In a few words, the matter was settled.

"Speaking of which, there is one thing about that Iwahashi-san from GENZO." Aoyama, the manager who was sent by Zhou Fang Yuxiong to connect with Iwahashi Shinichi that day, reported to Zhou Fang Yuxiong.

After getting permission, Aoyama said: "The Taketa Printing Company behind GENZO is also an investor in Japan Animation Production Company. The theme song and soundtrack of the anime "Chibi Maruko" will be animated in January next year. GENZO is responsible for it."

Zhou Fang Yuxiong continued to listen.

"However, the theme song of the manga was outsourced to a production company called BEING." Aoyama mentioned.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong began to feel bored, "And then?"

Is this something worth mentioning specifically?

"Actually, during the investigation, I felt that the production company called BEING is also very powerful." Aoyama explained, "This company has been established for ten years. It used to be an outsourced production company of CBS Sony."

"Tube, this band is produced by BEING."

Aoyama went on to say, "Not only that, just recently, there was a band called B'z, they released a mini-album, which also performed well in the charts recently, and it was still popular in disco in Tokyo."

"The band B'z was also produced by BEING." Aoyama said, "In terms of experience in producing a band, the president of this production company is older than that Yanqiao-san, and his achievements are not inferior to that of Yanqiao. Qiao-san."

Moreover, there are many songwriters and musicians surrounding this production company.Since the band is hot, does this experienced production company also have a chance to get a share?

Zhou Fang Yuxiong's previous impatience disappeared.He listened carefully to Aoyama's introduction of the background of this production company called BEING.The more you listen, the clearer an impression becomes.

This production company is much weaker than that Yanqiao Shinichi.

A producer named Taiyuki Nagato's Yiyantang, as long as this producer is dealt with, the entire production company will be at his fingertips.

That Yanqiao Shinichi also started a production company first, and then opened a record company.

Iwahashi Shinichi can do it, but can Nagato Taiyuki do it?
I still don't know who Taiko Nagato is, and I don't know the specific situation of BEING.However, as far as the information reported by Qingshan was concerned, in Zhou Fangyuxiong's ears, there was only one sentence——

"Easy as pie".
