Chapter 24 Release Date

"Takumi-kun, I'm going to participate in the "Music Fair" this Thursday, please come and help me then." Kazuki Akiyama said while eating.

"No problem." Ishida Takumi replied without raising his head. After thinking for a while, he looked up at Kazuki Akiyama and asked, "Is that the music program on Fuji TV?"

"Yes, an event arranged by the company to promote the new song."

Nagato Taiyuki still pays more attention to Akiyama Kazuki, the male solo brother of Being, and has everything he should have for the promotion of his debut single.

There are TIE-UP, music programs, and radio promotions. Although it is not a top-notch audio program, it is already a very good resource for newcomers.

With so many resources being spent on Kazuki Akiyama, if the sales of this single are not satisfactory, then Kazuki Akiyama's status in the eyes of Nagato Taiyuki will probably plummet.

Although I have the self-confidence of a reborn person, there is still a little pressure at the moment when I don't see the results.

"Music Fair" is a fairly long-lived old program on Fuji TV. It has been on the air since 1964, and it has been almost 30 years now.

Since Ishida Takumi promised Kazuki Akiyama to help him last time, he began to consciously collect various information in the circle.

Naturally, I have heard of such influential programs as "Music Fair", but I didn't expect Being to attach great importance to the promotion of Qiu Shanjun's debut.

"Has Kazuki-kun thought about his future career in acting?" Suddenly Ishida Takumi asked a question that didn't make much sense.

"Eh? Of course, the future path of performing arts is mainly based on the development of the music scene. As for other aspects, I haven't considered it yet."

Kazuki Akiyama replied as a matter of course, now all Tianqi brought him were songs, and nothing other than songs appeared.

Ishida Takumi put down his chopsticks and looked at Kazuki Akiyama with a serious expression, "Kazuki-kun, the entertainment industry is becoming more and more diverse now, and artists are also involved in more and more fields.

Perhaps in the past, singers sang songs for a lifetime, and actors acted for a lifetime, but now this boundary has become more and more blurred.

Fukuyama Masaharu and Matsuda Seiko, they are both singers and actors.This is especially true for Johnny's idols, including singers, hosts, actors, and even comedians.

It may be to increase exposure at first, but when you have a certain reputation, various invitations will also take the initiative to find you.You can't say no every time.

And since you have decided to enter this circle, you should work hard to do it well, and it is not a bad idea to try appropriate areas that you have not set foot in, and it is also very helpful to consolidate your popularity. "

To be honest, Kazuki Akiyama had never thought about this issue before, he always felt that he didn't have any creative talent or acting talent.

I have always regarded Apocalypse as my greatest reliance, and never considered that I should take the initiative to involve myself in other fields.

Frankly speaking, I just don't want to leave my comfort zone, but I don't realize it.

Ishida Takumi's words opened up Kazuki Akiyama's thinking. No one is born as an actor or singer, and it is only achieved by his own efforts.

If there is an opportunity in this area in the future, maybe I can give it a try, but at present, I have not yet made my mark, and the first priority is to establish my own basic plate.

Kazuki Akiyama and Takumi Ishida dispersed after dinner. Kazuki Akiyama walked alone on the way back to the apartment. The colorful neon lights of the city could not cover the sky full of stars.

Looking at the flickering stars above your head, your own brilliance blooms in the vast Milky Way.

I don't know if I can become one of them. In the long river of history, a small piece of starry sky once shone.

Today is Kazuki Akiyama's single release day, he got up early, not because there is any special event today, just because he was so excited that he couldn't fall asleep.

The publicity and promotion of the song will be carried out step by step, and it is not yet time for him to get on the horse himself.

Early in the morning, he made an appointment with Ishida Takumi to go shopping. It wasn't a sudden interest, but simply wanted to go to the record store to check the sales of his own CDs.

In fact, there will be specific sales sent to Being company every week, Kazuki Akiyama just needs to wait in the company.

But how could he wait so anxiously, although he knew that he didn't know how much he sold, but he just wanted to see for himself whether someone bought it, or only seeing the customer walking towards the cashier with his own CD could relieve the anxiety in his heart. Excitement and stress.

The two chose a relatively large record shop to go in. Although it was a working day, there were already many people picking records. Originally, Akiyama asked Ishida Takumi if he wanted to wear a mask.

As a result, Takumi Ishida mercilessly sarcastically said, "Even if you are on TV now, no one will recognize you."

Kazuki Akiyama had no choice but to give up resentfully. Originally, he saw that the starlets on the [-]th line in his previous life were all fully armed when they went out, so he wondered if he should also put on a little disguise.

However, the reality is cruel. Being has always let its artists take the mysterious route to reduce the exposure rate in front of the public, not to mention that he is now a little-known little transparent.

Putting their minds to rest, the two walked around the record store, and quickly found the place where Kazuki Akiyama's CD was placed. The poster hanging on the shelf read "Being's first male solo is born!"

There is also a line of small characters on the side, "Kazuki Akiyama's "Thank You", released on September [-]st."

Well, his status as the first male solo brother of Being is a solid one, Kazuki Akiyama teased secretly.

Kazuki Akiyama is quite satisfied with the promotion position of his CD. Although he can't be compared with those big singers, he is still eye-catching as a newcomer.

Although no one has visited him specifically, occasionally someone will look at him with curiosity, which has virtually increased other people's impression of him.

"The singer Mrs. Akita mentioned yesterday is Kazuki Akiyama, hey, it seems to be over there."

Two middle-aged women, dressed as full-time wives, walked to the shelf while talking, picked up Kazuki Akiyama's CD and looked at it.

"What a handsome face, he must be a very gentle person."

"Listening to Mrs. Akita's song is also very nice, and the lyrics are very thoughtful, as if they were written especially for us."

"Yes, then you must listen to it."

As they spoke, the two wives each took a CD and walked towards the cashier, talking and laughing.

Now Kazuki Akiyama and Takumi Ishida looked at each other in blank dismay, both of them never expected that the first people to be attracted were not those young girls but the wives at home.

"It seems that Kazuki-kun is very popular with wives." Ishida Takumi teased with a suppressed smile.

Kazuki Akiyama's mouth twitched twice, he thought that he would be the most popular among young girls like Johnny's idols, but the reality was very skinny.

But at least some people buy their own CDs, and it's not for nothing, Kazuki Akiyama comforted himself.

The two picked a few more record stores and walked around randomly. The situation was similar. One after another, people were attracted by the poster and bought the CD with an attitude of trying something new.

There was also an interesting incident that caught the attention of Kazuki Akiyama, that is, several young students came to buy his CD. After finally seeing the young audience, Kazuki Akiyama couldn’t help but wonder how they heard about his CD Yes, after all, it was the first day of release, and the word-of-mouth reputation has not fermented.

Then the students told him that someone had played this song on the school radio yesterday afternoon, and the teachers and students liked it very much.

Students like it because they are attracted by the singing and pop rock style, and teachers like it because it is inspirational and popular with students, so it became the best song on the school radio.

After inquiring clearly about the ins and outs, Kazuki Akiyama signed autographs for the group of students who recognized him as the original singer of the song.

The autograph that I secretly practiced in private finally came into use, and I really experienced the feeling of being asked to autograph.
