Life in Tokyo starting as a child star

Chapter 267: I made a low-level mistake (4000 words)

Chapter 267 A low-level mistake was made! (4000 words)

The negotiation process was not that complicated.

It was nothing more than the two sides standing up and shaking hands, half bowing, giving each other business cards, and exchanging polite greetings.

After drinking a sip of tea, the whole polite session was officially over.

"So, I think Tamura-san and Kitasumi-kun have already understood our purpose. Where is the script for the advertisement?"

Put down the teacup.

The performance of Kitasumi just now by the "prodigy" aroused his expectations. Kubo Shigenori rubbed his hands gently, raised his head, and got straight to the point.

But what surprised him was that after saying this, Kubo Shigenori clearly felt that the agent on the other side, Tamura Koji, was much more nervous than Kitasumi, and he drank two sips of tea in a row.

What was going on?

How could an adult not be as calm as Kitasumi, a child?

He was a little confused.

Probably because he noticed Kubo Shigenori's confused look.

Tamura Koji almost rolled his eyes.

In other words, Kubo Shigenori didn't know what exactly happened to Kita Sumire, so he was so shocked.

If the other party knew that Kita Sumire had only read two books on advertising design, and then he was going to take charge of this contract worth 31 million yen.

Tamura Koji estimated that Kubo Shigenori's jaw would drop.

He had not seen Kita Sumire's advertising script - mainly because Kita Sumire didn't let him see it at all.

Of course, there was a reason for this.

After all, there were only 7 days in total.

It would cost a lot just to polish and modify some details.

It was useless for Kita Sumire to discuss with him who had no experience.

So Tamura Koji was also very conscious and did not interfere with Kita Sumire.

As for the result

"Kita Sumire, let Mr. Kubo see the advertising script you prepared."

Tamura Koji coughed lightly and looked at Kita Sumire.

Now he only hoped that Kita Sumire could create miracles like before.

But he wanted to "create a miracle" after studying for half a day and reading two advertising books.

If Kitasumi really created it, then he would be too powerful, right?

Kubo Shigenori didn't know what Tamura Koji was thinking.

At this time, he had received the advertising script handed over by Kitasumi.

He said very politely: "Then I will read Kitasumi's work a little bit."

He opened Kitasumi's script manuscript with great expectation.

However, just seeing the title made his expectations slip a little.

The title of Kitasumi's advertising script is very simple - "The Scenery in the Eyes of Father and Daughter".

That's it. Is this title a bit old-fashioned?

At first glance, it feels like the kind of advertisement that keeps moving forward and the times keep changing.

It feels a bit artificial.

Kubo Shigenori frowned slightly.

He hoped that Kitasumi would come up with an excellent advertising script like "Station, Bench" that does not mention the word "advertisement" throughout the text, but can make the audience feel "Ah, I want to go to this place to see".

Instead of some low-quality advertisements such as "I feel good after using this thing, you should try it too" in some live broadcast rooms or in the short video APP that slides up and down.

The former "Station, Bench" as an advertising promotional film can arouse the audience's interest with its high-quality content, making them want to know the story behind the station from the bottom of their hearts.

The latter is pure "Wang Po sells melons and brags about herself", plus the clumsy jokes in the advertising video are used as selling points.

The level of these can be seen at a glance.

But this is just a title, who knows if there will be unexpected content in it?

Although a little disappointed, Kubo Shigenori still comforted himself in his heart and reached out to turn to the text of the advertising script.

Then

His expression became serious.

After a while.

Under the rather nervous gaze of Tamura Koji.

Kubo Shigenori raised his head and exclaimed: "It's really amazing."

Say something from the heart.

The content of Kita Sumimi's advertising script is very simple, really simple.

It tells a simple story about an ordinary father and daughter taking the subway.

However, such a simple story was played out by Kita Sumimi.

The story begins with the gentle sound of the subway's "Next station, Nishitani Station, Nishitani Station".

A lovely daughter and a kind father.

The intimate whispers between each other, and the father's kind words to coax his daughter, "Tokyo, it's just a blink of an eye".

Later.

The daughter gradually grew up.

The father looked at his grown-up and mature daughter and couldn't bear to part with her, so he said the line his daughter said when she was a child, "Tokyo, it's so far away".

The same people.

Completely different lines.

This is a very heartwarming story.

Of course, if it was just an ordinary heartwarming story.

Then Kubo Shigenori would not be so serious.

After all, as the advertising and publicity director of Sagami Railway Company, he has seen many such heartwarming stories.

But the beauty of this short story written by Kita Sumimi is that it does not mention advertising throughout the article, but the shadow of advertising is everywhere.

First, Kita Chengshi wrote at the beginning of the advertisement script, "Next stop, Nishitani Station, Nishitani Station."

And the father said, "Okay, let's get off."

This is actually a reference to the old Sagami Railway lines.

At that time, the subway system was not as developed as it is now.

Residents along the old Sagami Railway lines who wanted to go to Tokyo could only get off at Yokohama Nishitani Station and then transfer to other companies' railway lines, which was quite troublesome.

Later, the grown-up daughter watched her father leave, and she no longer had to get off the train to go directly to Tokyo.

This is actually a hint.

It refers to the new Shin-Yokohama Line (Sogami-Tokyu Direct Line) launched by Sagami Railway Company.

After the opening of the Shin-Yokohama Line.

Residents living on both sides of the Sagami Railway line no longer had to transfer in Yokohama as before, and could go directly to Tokyo, which greatly saved time.

So the "daughter" in the story did not have to get off the train and watched her father go away.

In addition, there are many details.

For example, the story begins with the red cushions in the car, which are the old Sagami Railway lines.

And later in the text description, it becomes the beige-gray cushions of the Shin-Yokohama Line.

To be honest.

If he hadn't watched it carefully again, even an employee of Sagami Railway Company wouldn't have noticed such details.

At the same time, Kitasumi Mi used the changes in the age of the father and daughter and the details of their staggered getting off points to imply the changes in the railway era.

The daughter's words "It's so far" in the front and the father's words "It's so far" in the back echoed each other.

When seeing this, even someone like Kubo Shigenori who has seen countless advertising methods couldn't help but sigh that Kitasumi Mi is simply a monster in details!

No matter big or small, he grasped the key points!

The key is obviously this "full of private goods" content.

The feeling given to Kubo Shigenori is that the atmosphere of the story is both plain and real, and the father and daughter are quite three-dimensional and full.

Not only did he tell a good story, but he also brought the most critical advertising function of promoting their Sagami Railway Company to the extreme.

To be frank.

From the perspective of advertising alone.

The new advertising script submitted by Kitasumi Mi is even better than his previous "Station, Bench".

"It's really amazing."

After carefully looking down at it again, Kubo Shigenori sighed again.

Because he is the publicity director of Sagami Railway Company, and has also made a lot of efforts in the advertising and publicity work of Sagami Railway Company.

So Kubo Shigenori actually knows very well all the excellent qualities that a perfect advertising film should have.

And the advertising script submitted by Kita Sumire is exactly in line with his impression of a perfect advertising film.

Although he was looking forward to Kita Sumire's script from the beginning.

But who knew that the quality could be so high?

It completely exceeded his previous expectations!

Kubo Shigenori's praise naturally attracted the attention of Tamura Koji on the other side.

This reaction was completely different from what he imagined, and Tamura Koji showed a look of astonishment.

Because he knew clearly what level Kita Sumire was.

He even asked him to buy two advertising reference books a week ago.

But look at Kubo Shigenori's reaction?

This can no longer be described as satisfied, right?

It's probably okay to say "quite satisfied, satisfied to the extreme".

He looked at Kita Sumire in surprise.

Although I always knew that Kita Sumire was very powerful, who knew he was so "powerful"?

Did he really write a script that would satisfy Sagami Railway Company just by reading those two books for a long time?

Is Kita Sumire's life in easy mode, or is his life in difficult mode?

Why does it feel like he and the other person are not living in the same world at all?

Tamura Koji touched his head and was really confused at this moment.

But obviously.

On the other side, Kubo Shigenori, as the client, didn't care much about his thoughts.

He just flipped through the script in his hand again and again to confirm whether there were any details he had missed, and at the same time, he didn't forget to ask curiously.

"Did Kita Sumire design this advertising script alone?"

Kubo Shigenori was a little skeptical at first, worried that Kita Sumire's title of prodigy might be hyped up by others.

But now it seems that Kita Sumire is really good at it.

Just for the advertising script in his hand, 10 million yen is not too much.

"I have consulted some people, but please rest assured, Mr. Kubo, the copyright of the script is still in my hands."

Kitasumi Minoru answered very straightforwardly.

He did ask some people for help.

But whether it is the story or the general changes and text polishing, these works are completed by him and Kitasumi Ariha.

Like the advertising script writers in the group of Mayu Watanabe.

In order to avoid suspicion, Kitasumi Minoru only asked them to help take a look to see if there are any formatting or professional wording errors.

It is equivalent to just consulting, which does not affect anything.

As for Kitasumi Ariha?

What's hers is his - there is no need to worry about this.

"Really? But even so, it's already quite remarkable."

Kubo Shigenori didn't care.

As long as the copyright is in Kitasumi Minoru's hands, it's enough.

The rest is nothing more than consulting some people.

This is nothing compared to the mess in the industry.

Some old screenwriters in the industry would even use their power to steal excellent scripts from new screenwriters.

Bei Chengshi just consulted some people, which is nothing.

"To put it bluntly, Tamura-san, Kitazumi-kun, I am quite satisfied with this advertising script."

Place the advertising script in your hand solemnly on the table.

Kubo Shigenori spoke simply.

"It's just that before signing the contract, I didn't understand some details in this script. I hope Beicheng-kun can explain it."

"Excuse me."

Hearing Kubo Shigenori express his attitude, Kitazumi actually breathed a sigh of relief.

He was worried that the other party was the kind of Party A that would be popular but not popular.

After all, when he was working in a design studio in Tianchao in his previous life, he had met this kind of client many times.

It was obviously very good when we were talking about it, but when it came time to sign the contract, he said, "I really thought it was good at the time, but after I went back and thought about it, I thought it would be better to change it."

This kind of person is the most terrifying.

Fortunately, Kubo Shigenori is not this kind of person.

Kitaki Minoru immediately extended his hand to let the other party ask any questions.

In fact, Kubo Shigenori's problem is not difficult.

It’s nothing more than that the subway represents life.

The father finally got off the bus because he could not always be with his daughter.

Just like the title name.

"The Landscape in the Eyes of Father and Daughter"

The scenery in the father's eyes is not the scenery in the daughter's eyes.

Vice versa.

The daughter also cannot see the scene in her father's eyes.

This is still a response.

"So that's it. Thank you Beicheng-kun for being willing to help me clear up my doubts."

Kubo Shigenori let out a breath, surprised that a 9-year-old Kitami Minori could have such an ingenious idea, but he also did not forget to ask the last question that he cared about.

That is——

"Kita Cheng-kun. I am indeed very satisfied with the content of your advertising script, and I do want to sign a contract with you now, but I clearly remember that our work contract stated that we hope you can come up with the advertising script, star in it, and be the spokesperson Advertisement for our company, right?”

"That's true."

Kitaki Minoru nodded his head.

Yes.

From the beginning, Sagami Railway Company has marked this in terms of job requirements.

Of course he knew it too.

"That's the problem."

Kubo Shigenori gently poked at the advertising script on the desktop with a strange expression.

"In the advertising script you submitted, Beicheng-kun, apart from 'father', there is no other male character."

His finger that poked at the advertising script stopped, and his expression became slightly strange.

That's right.

In the script, besides the father, there is only the daughter.

But Kitazumi is a boy again
