Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1022 1022. Decided to star
One more popular female solo singer, with more cards in her hand, is naturally something to be happy about.

An instant hit female singer-songwriter, Daikoku Moki can be said to be the first in recent years.Based on this alone, after the super-standard publicity, she will also enjoy super-standard attention in the following period of time.Whether her popularity is purely accidental, or it means that the female solo will usher in the long-lost spring, this is also a matter of common concern to the industry and the public.

Of course, for GENZO, the most important thing about the success of Daihemoji is that it means that the previous plan has successfully taken the most important step.The next step is to make the transition in an orderly manner and start a new chapter.

In March, it was officially announced that Shinichi Iwahashi resigned as the president. The reason for his resignation was to focus more on discovering and cultivating singers.Next, his work focus will be more on the solo market. Of course, it doesn't mean that he will stop getting involved with the band.

The record company has entered the fast lane of rapid development, and it is handed over to professional managers to take care of it, freeing up hands and feet to focus on the production of singers.Such an arrangement could not be more appropriate.

Since Watanabe Productions has decided to stand on the side of Iwahashi Shinichi, Watanabe Mayumi will naturally support him with all his strength.Of course she was happy that Dai Kuromoji became popular, but she felt relieved that Yanqiao Shinichi's plan went well.

If the record company wants to expand its scale, the internal forces will become more and more complicated.Today, in order to ensure that the control of GENZO is always in the hands of the two of them, Wanyumi Watanabe must maintain a close ally relationship with Shinichi Iwahashi.

Conversely, if Watanabe Mayumi makes a choice, Iwahashi Shinichi also has his own choice to make.

Yanqiao Shenyi proposed to resign himself, but the real meaning was just that.

Wanyumi Watanabe has been slow to express her position because she is well aware of this.And after last year's turmoil, he finally let go of his promise because he knew this.

In addition, I was sure in my heart that as long as the two of them had the same goal and shoulders were still touching, then no one could be as reliable as Iwahashi Shinichi.And vice versa.

After taking this step and making this decision, I will go all out in the future to consider how to make GENZO rank among the top.

"It's worth celebrating." Wanyumi Watanabe put away her thoughts and said something.Looking at Shinichi Iwahashi, he looked at the music magazine in his hand again.

"Indeed." Yanqiao Shen replied without raising his head.

After a while, I went to see Wanyumi Watanabe, half-jokingly, "Even if we drink the wine for celebration now, no one will laugh at us for being short-sighted and unable to hold our breath."

In the record-breaking week at the beginning of the Daikoku era, there were quite a few voices who believed that the sales explosion in the first week was due to the publicity before the release of the single, which gathered the scattered purchasing power of the public in the same week.Using large-scale publicity overdraft to sell their gas, after the first week, it is very likely that they will be beaten back to their original shape.

But the sales in the second week were steady, and the voice naturally disappeared.

And after considering the sales trend, hot topics, and market conditions in the medieval market, etc., it can be confirmed that Daihei Moji's debut single is very popular.

In this way, it is by no means too early to start drinking this glass of celebratory wine.

Mayumi Watanabe smiled at his words, and asked casually, "So, do you want a drink now?"

Yanqiao Shinichi agreed, "Of course." He smiled and calculated, "Have a drink first, and we will prepare a celebration reception later."

Wanyumi Watanabe stood up and went to get the wine for the celebration, while responding to his plan, "At the reception, I also invited people who are related to the TV broadcasting bureau, and asked them to take care of Moji-chan in the future."

"The relationship is really good." Yanqiao Shenyi joked when she heard her called "Moji sauce".

Mayumi Watanabe walked back, "Did you mean the name 'Maki-chan'?" She reminded Iwahashi Shinichi, "Maki-chan is just 21 years old."

Dai Kuromoji was born on the last day of 1969. According to the calculation method of Japanese real age, he was just over 21 years old.

"What about Wanyumi-san?" Iwahashi Shinichi asked.

Although Watanabe Wanyumi didn't care about age, she still complained about him, "This question is really rude."

"Haha!" Yanqiao Shenyi was overjoyed.

Wanyumi Watanabe also laughed.He couldn't tell if he was laughing at himself, or he was amused by Iwahashi Shinichi's reaction.She sat down, "Next year, I will be 30 years old."

"It's the best age." Wanyumi Watanabe said this, showing a satisfied smile.Young and vigorous, and has accumulated enough work experience, it is the age to show his talents.

Yanqiao Shen nodded, "Indeed." He took the wine glass handed over by Wan Yumi.

The two clinked glasses lightly.

However, calling Dahei Moji "Moji Sauce" is not just because of the age difference.Wanyumi Watanabe has a good relationship with his artists.Mihe-chan and Nakamura-san also spoke kindly to the boss of the firm who holds their brokerage contract——

There is absolutely no situation where Iwahashi Shinichi is in the way, and it is not good to speak ill of the boss in front of him.

"correct,"

Putting down the wine glass, Yanqiao Shenyi remembered, and repeated the old saying, "The article about "MUSICA" reminded me of one thing."

"Could you have another idea?" Wanyumi Watanabe was extremely interested.

Yanqiao Shenyi shook his head with a smile, "It is right to ignore such grandstanding comments." He explained, "I just thought that although this comment is grabbing the topic, there are indeed good songs that have been buried. few."

"I was thinking, don't the practitioners of the record store want to listen to the songs of various singers before buying?" Yanqiao Shinichi explained, "Maybe we can invite them to hold a 'record store's mind' event." Activities such as "The Famous Songs of the Leftover Pearl", these practitioners choose the singles in their minds that are not hit singles."

"Then, we select our favorite singles from these selected singles, and invite the singer's company to use them, re-cover the songs, or make a project album about 'famous songs that are not hit singles'. "

Shin Iwahashi told Wanyumi Watanabe of his sudden thoughts, "...That's it."

If the singers who were buried due to lack of publicity can bring them exposure in this way, then it can be regarded as selling excellence in this way.

Although it is not a singer signed by him, but in this way, he is not doing charity on his side. Access to quality songs.

Only by ensuring that GENZO is profitable can we ensure that this project can proceed smoothly once it starts.

Wanyumi Watanabe listened carefully to his thoughts, and commented: "It's something you can do."

Yanqiao Shinichi made a funny expression of being slapped by something, "I always hear you say that, it's almost becoming a perfunctory oral habit when you have nothing to say."

Of course not perfunctory.It is indeed what Shinichi Iwahashi can do that he can find opportunities from anywhere and at the same time maintain the original intention of selling excellence.

However, Watanabe Wanyumi didn't like him, "It's really pitiful."

"Okay." Yanqiao Shen admitted defeat with a smile.

Just kidding, this idea is not unfeasible.The two of them will write this down for the time being—the meeting today is not to find inspiration while chatting after all.But there is something else, and I need to listen to Yanqiao Shinichi's opinion.

"Lovely Season" has entered the pre-shooting preparations, and the crew was established. Etsuko Kitagawa and Megumi Mizuno, who were appointed as screenwriters, are also in full swing, starting the content creation of the scripts for the first few episodes.

In terms of casting, it's simple for extra actors and non-important roles. Under the production bureau of the TV station, there are a bunch of green leaf actors of their own, and even their own green leaf actor training school.

Only in terms of important roles, the actor himself and the power of the firm behind the actor must be considered.

TV dramas have always been a battleground between offices.

The role of Kanon is Nakamori Akina's, and the casting of Naoko has to be nominated by Wanyumi Watanabe.Her firm didn't have any suitable candidates, so she decided early on to use this role as a resource for exchange and use actresses from other firms.

The size should not be too different from Akina Nakamori, and the age must be similar, other than that...

Wanyumi Watanabe and Shinichi Iwahashi shared their opinions, "Although Hanon's character comes from a traditional family and does not look like a new human being, inside, she has the heartiness of a modern woman. In this regard, Naoko is just the opposite. With an overseas background, he seems to act independently, but in fact he has a traditional heart.”

"Yeah." Yanqiao Shenyi listened.

Watanabe Wanyumi acquiesced that he knew the content of the script early on, so she skipped explaining the plot and chatted with him about the personalities of the two heroines.

She continued, "So, for the role of Naoko, it would be more appropriate for the actress to have a slightly more Western look."

"So, do you have any favorite candidates?" Yanqiao Shinichi also agreed with her opinion - in fact, the casting matter had nothing to do with him, he just came here to contribute a reference opinion, or express his affirmation to her.

"There are two."

Watanabe Wanyumi gave him the collected information, "A man named Suzuki Kyoka, a model by training, worked as a Kanebo advertising girl."

Yanqiao Shen took a look at the photo, "The eyebrows and eyes are ambitious. If Naoko has this kind of energy, then the TV series will be another matter."

"You're welcome." Wanyumi Watanabe said his comment.

Yanqiao Shinichi replied casually, "Anyway, Manyumi-san didn't ask me to come here because of my polite words."

Mayumi Watanabe took up the conversation with a smile, and explained, "Suzuki-san was recommended by a related person."

"I see." Yanqiao Shinichi expressed his understanding.

He went on to look at the next one, whose name was "Yasuda Narumi".One year younger than Nakamori Akina, and two years older than Suzuki Kyoka just now, she used to be a child actor, performed in TV commercials, TV dramas, and released records, so she has a rich resume.

Not only that, as early as two years ago, she had the experience of starring in TV dramas. Compared with Suzuki Kyoka, who has only a few acting experiences, she looks quite reliable.

"Nakamori-san—" On official occasions, Yanqiao Shen opened his mouth and said "Nakamori-san".He said his thoughts, "She is a novice in acting, and she doesn't have any skills. Therefore, it is better for the actors who play with her to strive for safe acting skills."

Akina Nakamori has not received acting training, so when she is acting, she has to make sure that the actors she plays with can bring her into the state and bring her a positive influence.

To be precise, for TV dramas starring non-professional actors such as idols or singers, the supporting actors must ensure solid acting skills. He is an idiot who can only memorize lines, and all the supporting actors around him must be professionals who can play freely.

As the first protagonist, Akina Nakamori, her performance is crucial.And TV dramas starring two actresses are obviously far from idol dramas.As an important drama for her to formally enter the TV drama industry, it should leave a positive impression in the hearts of the audience - she is not singing and acting, but she can indeed act.

Shinichi Iwahashi reminded Wanyumi Watanabe, "Although the voice of Naoko's character is on Wanyumi-san's side, if the performance is not good, Kenneth's side may have something to say."

Wanyumi Watanabe nodded with a calm expression, "That makes sense. ... Also, your judgment on Nakamori-san's acting skills is also the same."

"I don't know anything about acting." Iwahashi Shinichi wasn't self-effacing, "It's just this way of thinking."

Wanyumi Watanabe smiled, "I don't understand what I'm talking about, but it's not clear."

"Forgive me." Yanqiao Shenyi couldn't stand being flattered by her.

Watanabe Wanyumi stopped and continued to talk about business, "I also think that Yasuda-san is more suitable. Not only for acting considerations, but also her appearance is more suitable. However, Yasuda-san cannot be a supporting role for Nakamori-san."

Narumi Yasuda is an actress who has starring experience and has certain qualifications. Although Akina Nakamori is a Taopu star in the music industry, she is still a fledgling novice in the TV drama industry.Narumi Yasuda starred, and she could only co-star with her.

In this way, there will be another round of negotiation.

Yanqiao Shinichi thought it was nothing, "Originally, this TV series has two heroines. The two women not only have equal parts in the role, but in the plot, no matter which one is missing, the other is incomplete."

He felt that he was a bit unnecessary, so he made his words clear when he said this, "However, Wanyu Mi-san has already made a decision."

Suzuki Kyoka is an actor introduced by a related person.

If Watanabe Wanyumi is really a relationship person who is not easy to reject, then she will not move Yasuda Narumi out again.What's more, Narumi Yasuda is still an actor who can only co-star with Akina Nakamori.

Mayumi Watanabe invited him to watch the actors together, or rather, she was waiting for his words.

Shinichi Iwahashi remembered, and glanced at Narumi Yasuda's office, "Are you an actor from Tanabe's office?"

That's an established force in the industry.

Not only that, but the relationship with Zhou Fangyuxiong's BURNING series seems to have been maintained very well.
