Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 956
"Something I would do?" Shinichi Iwahashi also laughed at this statement.He pretended to be stupid, and satirized himself, "Do you mean asking for trouble?"

Watanabe Mayumi nodded seriously, "Indeed."

It really made her reply without thinking, Yanqiao Shinichi patted his arm, and made a gesture of being hit by something.However, saying this on purpose is still an apology for refuting Mayumi Watanabe's kindness just now.

However, Wanyumi Watanabe didn't care that he didn't receive her love.Taking advantage of the situation and leaving the problem to Yanyin to solve it, it will save worry and effort.But he will consider Kikuchi Momoko's own situation, which is the character of Iwahashi Shinichi all along.

To be honest, at this juncture, Shinichi Iwahashi showed a character that has not changed from before. For Mayumi Watanabe, it is a relief.

At least, walking side by side until now, Iwahashi Shinichi has always been that Iwahashi Shinichi.Since the principle of conduct has not changed, many things have become clearer.

……

After the meeting with Mr. Nozaki was over, Wanyumi Watanabe got in the car, called Iwahashi Shinichi again, and asked him if he wanted to find a place to sit again.Yanqiao Shenyi replied, "I want to go together", so the two met again at the club they frequented after the show was over.

Yanqiao Shen recalled it, and said casually: "Before, the music festival was successfully held, and the promised 'celebration' has never been fulfilled."

The celebration party prepared for the musicians and staff who participated in the performance was completed as early as after the end of the music festival.Watanabe Wanyumi knew what the "celebration" referred to here, but she kept silent.

Yanqiao Shinichi said himself, "Alcohol is the most indispensable thing now."

He may not have said this on purpose.

Wanyumi Watanabe knew it well, so she didn't raise her glass with his words, and turned around, what she said was, "At the beginning of the year, I heard you said that I wanted to expand the scale of GENZO."

Her words hit the point.

On the other hand, if you don't sell the details, it means that Mayumi Watanabe probably already has a certain amount of money in her heart.Yanqiao Shenyi knew it in his mind, and he was not in a hurry, "If the record company wants to develop and grow, and get involved in the market other than the band, it will definitely not be possible just by our current small business."

Although the current GENZO is leading the trend of hot bands and is full of food in this wave of bands, fundamentally speaking, it has always been a small workshop model that sells one, and it is all handmade by Shinichi Iwahashi. .

In terms of band promotion, there is no need to invest too many resources. Even a small company can own three popular bands at the same time.But if the wave of bands fades, a new fashion starts, and the demand for various resources increases, this kind of small workshop will definitely be the fastest to pass away and the easiest to be abandoned by the market.

In addition to powerful bands, other singers need more exposure and resource support if they want to promote.Through the promotion of Utoku Keiko and Mikami Ken, two solo singers, one female and one male, Shinichi Iwahashi has already experienced a lot.

Not only that, even for powerful bands, in this era, it is getting farther and farther away from "the smell of wine is not afraid of the deep alley". Zhangkou, after the beginning of this era, the demand for resources will also increase.

When bands gather together, it is inevitable that they will follow the old path of the idol era.

Facing the new era, the first thing to understand is that the opening of the new era means that the previously used model must also be changed.Whether it's a complete overthrow, or a subtle change.

After the flashy and flashy idol era came to an end, this band craze replaced it. Powerful bands shined brightly. Idol bands like Johnny's were cast aside by the public, and the public would never accept that.

What is boring at the same time is not just the idol profession, but also the stage style and packaging mode of the idol logo.Although these bands in the band boom, the stage style and packaging mode are not without reference to idols, but at least what they present to the public is something new and different from idols.

If you can't figure this out, just keep introducing newcomers to the outside world in accordance with the inherent publicity and production model.Then, in the eyes of the public, no matter whether it is a band or a singer, they will no longer be interested.As long as you get tired of this one, you won't look at that one more.

In this way, after the gust of powerful bands has passed, the new trend launched, regardless of the promotional model or selling point, will definitely be different from the original band trend.

If you can't understand this point, you won't be able to seize the opportunity when a new trend starts.

Resources are needed, the current operating mode needs to be changed, and it needs to fly higher.Scale up, find new partners, hire professional managers.Every step of this, the next step is to go out.

Yanqiao Shenyi's strength is weak, once the company introduces a new partner, if he is not careful, it may fall sharply.In order to prevent this situation from happening, when the record company was established, he planned his own successor.

Now, GENZO is almost fully controlled by him, not only that, as long as he is out of his appeal, more than half of this record company will collapse immediately.At this time, it is better to take the initiative to mention the matter of expanding the scale than to weaken the influence of the record company by more than half, and to mention things such as fame and appeal when they start to be worthless.

As early as during the New Year, when Watanabe Wanyumi and Iwahashi Shinichi went to socialize together, he mentioned the expansion of the scale for the first time.The record company has come to this point, if it wants to continue to grow, it should attract new partners to make the company's operating model more modern.

However, at that time, Shinichi Iwahashi was vague and didn't say anything directly, and Mayumi Watanabe didn't express his position either.

After that, the new year began, and various things happened one after another, and he never mentioned this matter again.In addition, what has not been mentioned again is where the manager of THE BLUE HEARTS will go.

At the beginning, when he wanted to keep the management contract of THE BLUE HEARTS in his hands for the time being, Shinichi Iwahashi's plan was to sign it to an agency with actor resources.At that time, I also had several alternative firms in my mind, but I didn't act for a while.At this moment, on the contrary, by mistake, it became a safe card that he absolutely held in his hand.

Now, as long as Yanqiao Shenyi leaves, this band will definitely be taken away by him.

At that time, among the three popular bands, one will leave with him, and the other will be ZARD. The members are most convinced by him, and the star office is also interested in him. To appease the Star Office and the band members, there must be a big price to pay.

Three bands, only one BOLAN don't need to worry.

When Wenchun's report came out, Yanqiao Shinichi offered to resign.In the past few days, Wanyumi Watanabe and the Watanabe family behind her were enough to figure out how to respond to his resignation. Similarly, Wanyumi Watanabe was enough to guess Shinichi Iwahashi's true intentions.

It's not a temporary idea, but a long-planned plan.Knowing it well, Wanyumi Watanabe is not surprised to hear Shinichi Iwahashi say his plan now.She thought for a while, and replied to him, "So, you have to resign as the president."

Yanqiao Shinichi may not have said that on purpose, "I have to give an explanation."

Wanyumi Watanabe sarcastically said, "How dare you say that."

Is this an confession?
Shinichi Iwahashi was quite serious, and replied seriously: "I resigned from the position of president myself, and the company expanded its scale. At the same time, it launched a new artist who is different from any singer in the past. It no longer depends on the public's impression of GENZO. At the same time, it made the industry Other forces can no longer act rashly...There is no better explanation than this."

When he said this, he paused, "After all, we can't always be led by the nose by invisible hands."

Watanabe Manyumi was speechless for a moment.

As soon as Wen Chun's report came out, Zhou Fang Yuxiong stretched out his hand again, which actually helped him. He didn't even need to use the backhand he had reserved for the time being, and could overcome this hurdle by relying on the cards Zhou Fangyuxiong handed him.

If Watanabe is going to be too harsh on him, they have to think about it first. At this moment, if he is forced out, BURNING will choose a talent who holds more than half of GENZO, and he has created several popular bands with one hand, but he is alone. Shinichi Iwahashi, who is weak, will still choose Watanabe, who was once the king and has an empty record company.

When it really comes to the step of rebellion, if Yanqiao Shenyi is plotted by Watanabe, then Zhou Fangyuxiong will not reach out again, and it will not be Watanabe's turn to accuse BURNING of taking advantage of the fire.At that time, Zhutian Printing Company will only blame Watanabe.

People are creatures of change, whether Yanqiao Shenyi will fall to Zhou Fangyuxiong for a while, no one can make a conclusion on this matter.It is absolutely impossible for the Watanabe family to play like a child's play, betting that "Iwahashi Shinichi would rather return to the underground music industry than accept Zhou Fang Yuxiong's solicitation after being kicked out", this kind of thing seems ridiculous just thinking about it.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong's alienation strategy played by taking advantage of the problem was to give the good card to Watanabe Mayumi.But in turn, it also allowed Yanqiao Shinichi to take this opportunity to repeat the old saying of expanding the scale.

Watanabe Manyumi has a good card, but it is not as good as Iwahashi Shinichi's ability to retreat and play a bad card alive.

……

Tonight, Kenichiro Nozaki even took the opportunity to express his opinion that Kenichi would side with Shinichi Iwahashi.Nakamori Akina is determined to support Iwahashi Shinichi, and Kenon has no choice.

Watanabe Wanyumi thought about this, her face was expressionless, and she couldn't tell what it was like in her heart.From two people on three legs, to walking side by side.Then there is now, this very moment.

She didn't speak, Yanqiao Shinichi didn't speak again, just drinking silently, waiting for her.

If the record company is to be top-notch in the industry, the step he mentioned at the moment must of course be taken.Wanyumi Watanabe pondered for a while before speaking again, but asked, "So, next you plan to attack the SOLO market?"

From Keiko Utoku, who has already debuted, to Maki Daikoku, who is about to debut.From the male solo Ken Mikami launched by GENZO, to Masaharu Fukuyama who signed with AMUSE and is preparing to debut, this year, Shinichi Iwahashi’s plan is obviously to prepare for the solo market.

"At least, it's already confirmed that we can't go back to making idols," said Iwahashi Shinichi.

Answer like a joke.Watanabe Mayumi didn't think he was being perfunctory, rather, this was the truth.

Obviously, the band craze can continue for a while, and the pace of launching bands will naturally not stop.Not only that, the biggest advantage of the band is that they can afford to wait.

When idols waste their best years, they will disappear in the long river of the entertainment world.If a singer does not have the creative ability to produce stable output, he will be abandoned by the company if he cannot make money.Only the band, not necessarily when the opportunity will come.

Similarly, even if the band craze subsides, the creative ability is still there, and it may not be time to regain attention.

GENZO, which started as a band, of course will not give up the band.Not only that, but new bands are released every year.In addition to bands, if you don't make idols, the answer to the rest is obvious.

"The route of a solo singer is very malleable."

Shinichi Iwahashi said, "If you're a singer, no matter what genre you sing, or what kind of appearance you appear in the public eye, it won't make people feel strange. Besides, singers have always led the fashion."

While he was talking, what came to his mind was actually the child model Hamasaki Kotomo who was far away in Fukuoka at the moment, and who didn't even think about singing, and who hadn't even passed the period of changing his voice.

"Madonna." Wanyumi Watanabe said.

Yanqiao Shenyi responded for a while, and realized that he was "seeking far away", so he couldn't help laughing.The sudden smile was a little puzzled in Watanabe Wanyumi's eyes.

"What are you thinking?" she asked.

Yanqiao Shenyi was serious, "Thinking of the blazing publicity funds."

This time, Mayumi Watanabe smiled, "Fashion is the most expensive thing." She paused, thinking of herself, "For example, Akina Nakamori's production funds are also well-known in the industry."

"Really?" Iwahashi Shinichi laughed again.This time, what comes to mind is that there is a fashionable fashionista girlfriend beside me, but it is the distant Walnut Hamasaki and the distant Madonna.

This time, Wanyumi Watanabe didn't care about Shinichi Iwahashi's smile, what was the reason.

She thought for a while, "Whether it's Utoku Keiko who has already debuted, Mikami Ken, or Daikoku Maki who is about to debut, but none of them have anything to do with fashion and fashion."

"However, to create popularity, the most important thing is the team." Wanyumi Watanabe knows it all too well.

But Shinichi Yanqiao mentioned another matter, "Speaking of Daihemoki." As if he had been reminded by her, he changed the subject, "I have another plan, and I want to discuss it with you."

Watanabe Manyumi cast a questioning look, waiting for his next words.The rhythm of the conversation was taken away by Yanqiao Shenyi lightly and cleverly.She was aware of this, but dismissed it.

Shinichi Iwahashi stated his plan, "I want to cancel the original debut press conference and postpone Dahei's official debut."

"Postponed debut."

Watanabe Wanyumi considered his words, waiting for his explanation.
