Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1019 1019. Her Times
Record stores have the rules of record store purchases. Practitioners with many years of experience have cultivated golden ears. A promotional disc of a record is sent over, and after the audition, they first have a score in their hearts.

Of course, the quality of the song itself, whether it has the possibility of becoming popular, this only accounts for part of it.In other words, with the development of the times, the quality of songs accounts for less and less of the reasons for practitioners to decide the numbers on the order.

After the audition meeting in the record store, it is necessary to consider the singer's own conditions, the size of the company he belongs to, the promotional specifications of the investment, and so on, before deciding how many copies to order.We should neither be too conservative nor blindly aggressive.

For newcomers who debuted with normal specifications, no matter how desirable the promotional discs they sent for audition, they only pre-ordered a thousand copies.If it's Johnny's kind of newcomer who has appeared in many shows before his debut and has a certain popularity, he will pre-order [-] copies no matter whether the promotional disc he listens to is satisfactory or not.Anyway, I would buy the singles of Johnny's newcomers, and few of them came for the songs.

However, now that the tide of idols has ebbed, Johnny's signature is not easy to use.Since the second half of last year, after returning SMAP's debut single to Polly Jiayin, the store has treated Johnny equally.

Of course, whether it's a rookie solo, a rookie band, or a rookie in the idol world that has already passed away as a whole, as long as the record company and agency pay extra for promotional fees, that's another matter...

"About the Great Black Moji, it's another matter."

At the audition meeting inside the record store, everyone present agreed unanimously.Based in Shinjuku, the record store chain has long been on the record label's roster for promoting collaborations.

This time, Daihei Moji made his debut, and GENZO also asked the store to cooperate with the promotion.

Put up promotional posters of Daikoku Moji in the store, and place her singles in a place that is both conspicuous and convenient for customers to pick up.Of course, for this kind of non-in-store publicity request, the record company will pay them a promotion fee.

Taking money to do things, GENZO has enough publicity funds for Dahei Moji, and the store will also cooperate with the publicity.However, at this moment, everyone is discussing the number of orders that will eventually be sent to GENZO.

A newcomer with a normal specification pre-ordered [-] copies, but Maki Daikoku is obviously already a newcomer with a super specification.At this moment in Tokyo, her publicity is overwhelming. In a day in the store, I don't know how many times I will be asked about this mysterious singer.

Under this promotional battle, when the singles are on the shelves and the promotional posters in the store are hung up, customers who are eager to hear the news will come to the store to find out.The public has been aroused enough curiosity, it is conceivable that this newcomer's debut single, at least in the first week of sales, will have a considerable sales momentum.

With this battle as a base, even if you order [-] copies, it can be digested with the scale of the store.

"But, it really is a good song, right?"

To countless practitioners who have read songs, it is clear that this single was produced according to the production model of best-selling songs.It's no secret that the production method of the best-selling songs is put there.However, even if it is produced according to the structure of the best-selling song, it is absolutely impossible for music production to be perfect.

Similarly, adding bricks and tiles to the already built framework, only a skilled master can build a beautiful and strong house.And the guy who copied the structure of the best-selling song and stuffed it with popular elements is just a clown.

As for Dahei Moji, he is obviously a brilliant and spiritual master.

This debut single is enough to make people's ears bright.Coupled with her talented and explosive voice, people have to admire and envy, the producer Shinichi Iwahashi can find such a newcomer.

The publicity is in place, and the quality of the song itself is impeccable, which is enough to meet the public's sense of anticipation. Even after the first week, there is a high probability that the popularity will continue for a while.

If you think about it this way, two thousand tickets is not much, and if you add another one or two thousand tickets, it is not impossible to upgrade to the treatment of Johnny's newcomer idol.

but……

In addition to publicity, topicality, and song quality, this single also has a famous producer.

The president thought over and over again, finally made up his mind, and made a final decision on the number of this order: "We order four thousand."

Four thousand!
The figure was exactly doubled than planned.

This is the treatment only for singers who already have a certain reputation and popularity, and whose songs are of guaranteed quality.A newcomer who has not debuted and has not passed the market inspection, at least for this store, is unique.

……

The era of relying on word of mouth to increase the popularity of songs is gone forever. Today, through publicity and marketing, songs can be directly sent to the public, allowing the public to change from passive acceptance to active pursuit.

Of course, at least at this moment, if the public wants to happily eat the dish served directly in front of them, the first thing to ensure is that the dish is delicious enough.Even if it's not tasty enough, it should be distinctive enough.

Yanqiao Shinichi is confident that the dish of Daikokumoki can satisfy the appetite of the public, so he dares to act boldly.Of course, no matter how sure you are, every time you introduce a newcomer, it's a gamble.The difference is that some newcomers are cheap lottery tickets, while others are gambles with wealth.

Now that he has decided to take this big step, Iwahashi Shinichi has made decisions that have nothing to do with prudence from the very beginning.

Maybe it's his gambler attitude that also affected the judgment of the record sellers, maybe it's because Daihei Moji's dish is delicious enough.For this debut single, GENZO received a total of 17 orders.

This number was sent back to the record company, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

Ordinarily, even for a rookie singer whom the company strongly recommends, if the shipment of the first single does not show signs of a big hit, the final number of orders received will only be between 20.00 and [-] copies, and at most [-] copies .On the record company's side, on the basis of this order quantity, they will increase the printing volume by about [-]%.

Of course, among these orders, there are both record stores that expressed strong confidence in this single and gave numbers that far exceed the standards of new singers, and there are also records that keep calm and only make small additions, or order according to the usual standards. shop.

Taken together, the number of orders from record sellers for Dahei Moji's debut single has almost doubled.

The record seller boldly increased the order quantity, which shows that they are optimistic about this single.

Although the record seller's order does not prove that this single will be a hit, it is the general public who really decides whether or not Daikoku Moji can become a blockbuster.However, the attitude from the record sales side is also crucial at this moment of gaining momentum.

Not only is it a reassurance for GENZO's relations for the time being, but at the same time, since the record store makes a bold order, they will also fully cooperate in order to allow the record to be digested smoothly.

In addition to the publicity that GENZO pays for itself, there is a high probability that record stores will also carry out spontaneous publicity.

Everything is ready.

On the 0.1th, the second episode of "Tokyo Love Story" aired.Compared with the first episode, the ratings rose slightly by [-].For TV series, the ratings of the second episode are the same as the first episode, which means that the TV series has retained its audience.

As soon as the second episode was aired, Fuji TV Production Bureau chose Honami Suzuki against Ryo Ota, so he had to breathe a sigh of relief and take pride in his vision.Honami Suzuki, who played the lead role, and Yuji Oda, who assisted her in the role, when the two appeared on the set, the attitude of the staff must be more cordial.

In the past, it was polite, but now it is polite, with a little kindness.

In addition to Fuji TV, other TV stations also pay close attention to the ratings of TV dramas and the trend of the plot, and study the experience and methods that can be learned from them.Between various TV stations, it is inevitable to learn from each other.

In addition to TV stations, magazines that specialize in drama reviews will also be moved by the news. Even the TV production companies and stakeholders involved in GENZO are preparing for the production of new dramas, and they are also focusing on this season's most outstanding performance on the TV series.

This is true of TV dramas, and even more so in the recording industry.

As soon as this thing is popular, as long as the first shot is fired, it will be natural, and there will be people and things that make this heat even hotter.The first step is always the hardest and most important.

The day after the second episode of "Tokyo Love Story" aired, Daikoku Maki's debut single also began to be available in record stores.

……

Where exactly is the Dahei Moji sacred?How could this girl be so highly valued?

The rock bridge producer who is famous for producing bands, what kind of newcomer did he introduce?
This question has been lingering in my mind since I first saw the publicity of Daihemoji.

One is neither pretty nor cute. Instead of standing there alone, if she is put in a band and a few male musicians stand behind her as a foil, it will be more in line with the usual attitude towards her. Impression of girls in this style.It is also in line with the identity of Shinichi Iwahashi, a famous band producer.

Mita Juli, an ordinary girl.She is studying in a short-term college, and the girls around her live a chic and casual life, and she is no exception.Have fun, go to fraternities, and live life to the fullest.Knowing that he can never be the protagonist, but also full of enthusiasm for serving as the background board of the glitzy era.

Compared with them, the much-hyped Daikoku Moji is the so-called "protagonist", right?

How can she be the main character?

She is obviously a girl who is neither pretty nor cute.

With such a fanfare of publicity, it is not only Mita Juli who has seen Daikoku Maki.Soon the name became the talk of the girls, and it was brought up often among other fashionable topics.

"Looks like a singer-songwriter...do you write your own songs? That's amazing!"

"However, the appearance is not very cute, is it? If such a appearance can also make a debut, anyone can do it."

"However, although it's not cute, it's actually quite handsome. It feels very refreshing, doesn't it?"

Hearing what his companion said, Mita Juri thought in his heart, but actually he also slightly agreed.This big black Moji gives people a very hearty impression, and feels like a big sister.

"The producer is Yanqiao-san, that Yanqiao-san!" Among the companions, a girl named Fengzi emphasized a bit exaggeratedly, "Yanqiao-san is a master of all things!"

A girl named Mariko answered nonsensically, "Not only that, but also Akina-chan's boyfriend, maybe she will marry Akina-chan in the future."

The girls smiled coquettishly, and what they said to Mariko was inappropriate.

While laughing, Mita Juri remembered that before, the weekly magazine had photographed Akina-san and Iwahashi-san, who visited each other's hometown during the New Year, and speculated that the two were in a "super-serious relationship" .

Wouldn't it be good to simply write "association on the premise of marriage"?I don't write that way, is it because it is not yet time to get married?

Mita Juli remembers that when he saw the magazine, he still quietly complained about the way the weekly was written.However, when I saw those two people on TV before, I felt that they had a very good relationship, and now they are going back to their hometown together, it seems that they really hit it off.

In fact, when the weekly magazine was published, this matter was taken as a topic of gossip by them.Otherwise, when Mariko mentioned it, everyone would react in unison.

Even "maybe they will get married" is just the conclusion of their women's society.

However, one of the main points of participating in the girls' club is to actively respond to the topics of your companions.

"Anyway, he is a famous producer who hits every shot, and the album he made for Ming Cai Jiang was also a big success. Such a person, a newcomer who is the producer himself, no matter how you think about it, he can't be an ordinary person, right?"

"Moreover, such a big publicity has been prepared!"

"If you think about it this way, the more ordinary she looks, the more hidden she is?"

The topic was finally brought back from gossip. The more the girls chattered, the more they went to see Daihemoji, the more mysterious and extraordinary this newcomer who appeared suddenly seemed.

Mita Juli is no exception.She is full of curiosity about Daikoku Moki, and wants to know what kind of person the girl who can become the "protagonist" will be?

Is it because this Dahei Moji possesses the ability to be chosen by God?

Before going to the record store to find out, Mita Kuri first heard the voice of Dai Kuroki on the radio.When the newcomer who became the topic of the world before her debut opened her voice, Mita Juri was shocked by her explosive singing.

At that moment, it was obviously singing, but Mita Kuri was inexplicable and had a feeling.

This Daihemoji was answering his own question.Is she the main character?Does she have what it takes to be chosen?The answer is, without a doubt, yes.But the person who gave the affirmative answer was not Daikoku Maki, but Mita Kuri himself.

Mita Juri felt in her heart that for Daikoku Maki, the word she wanted to use was "worship" rather than "like".

Daihemoji's explosive singing voice, as well as the overwhelming publicity about her during this period of time, seem to be conveying the same thing, and Daihemoji's singing voice is officially announcing this matter——

"My time has begun!"

Her singing voice is that of a "protagonist".
