Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1088
In terms of musical standards, Tetsuro Oda, who provided the music, is a certified composer genius, and Maki Okoku is well-recognized as a singer-songwriter, and they are all stars with high expectations in the industry.

On the contrary, WANDS has no reputation and popularity, and its own music level can't be said to be able to stand alone.

The three young people in the band recognize the musical standards of Tetsuro Oda and Maki Daikoku, but also know that their own talents are not enough to be independent.If you regard Oda Tetsuro and Daikoku Moki as musicians, the three people also sincerely respect them.

... However, even if they don't have the popularity, fame, or blockbuster talent, the band should not be grateful to accept the arrangement to act as a foil in a collaboration that they don't want to participate in, and perform on the same stage with the "big star".

However, choosing to enter the entertainment world, becoming a singer of a mainstream label, and accepting the company's package, now, to talk about your ideals, pride, and dissatisfaction with this cooperation, it only seems ridiculous on your own side.

Unless you have the courage and determination to jump out, from the time you sold the first thing, from the first compromise, as long as you are in this rule, you will only be constantly taken away from what you have, and you will be lowered again and again. head to go.

After the news of the cooperation was released, when the general public talked about this cooperation, all kinds of speculation about WANDS made these three proud young people feel ashamed.There were even musicians who had known each other in the underground music industry sarcastically speaking to them——

"Catching a ride to the mainstream."

However, the unknown fire in the hearts of the three WANDS youths could not be extinguished. In addition to being dissatisfied with this compromised cooperation and ashamed of the speculation and sarcasm from the outside world, there was also a sense of shame and anger caused by their own cowardice and incompetence. .

Perhaps it should be said that more than half of their anger comes from their loathing for this constantly compromising self.

Especially after the official start of the cooperation, when they had direct contact with Dahei Moji, the three young people recognized her talent and character, and believed that she deserved the fame and sales she has now——

"Going to serve as a foil for an idiot with a vain name" is not true, at least, Dahei Moji is not in vain.In this way, the dissatisfaction in their hearts turned out to be on themselves.

But no matter what the three young people think and think about it, since the cooperation has started, it must and can only go on, and they will do their best to do their best.

Since compromise comes first, the work must be done well, otherwise, it will only increase the laughing stock.

After the production started, the three youths worked hard, trying to make a good appearance. They were serious and modest when working, and they were well-received among the staff of GENZO.However, outside of work, the three young men were taciturn and sullen.

The irony is that Uesugi Noboru's handsome and unruly face, because of his reticence, has added a touch of demeanor-during the work, the recording studio has cameras shooting all the time, recording this high-profile cooperation .

……

Unlike the three young people who are full of worries in WANDS, the pair of good friends, Maki Daikoku and Tetsuro Oda, are very happy that this song can be released smoothly.

When the cooperation was in the discussion stage, Tetsuro Oda took the initiative to participate in the discussion meetings of both companies as a composer. After the production started, he spent all day in the recording studio of GENZO.

This kind of practice spread to Nagato Taiko's ears and made him feel unhappy.

Obviously he was the one who discovered and single-handedly promoted.If it weren't for him, Oda Tetsuro, who is sensitive and inferior by nature, would have given up music long ago and didn't know what to do.As a result, now, this young man who has been favored by him is full of alienation from him.

Nagato Taiko takes great care of Oda Tetsuro. However, the elder brother takes care of the younger brother, which does not mean that as the helm of a company, he has to give up his own strategy and accommodate someone in it.

For VERMILLION Records, Tetsuro Oda no longer contributes music for the company, and he has no opinion on how Nagato Taiko will deal with his inventory songs from previous years.But this kind of no opinion is more like a kind of indifference.

In other words, Oda Tetsuro doesn't care what songs he has written and how those songs will be arranged.Furthermore, this attitude made Nagato Taiko feel that in Oda Tetsuro's heart, he didn't think it mattered to VERMILLION records.

Since when did the Oda Tetsuro, who obeyed his words and had no second thoughts, drift away from him?
The fuse was that BEING accepted Zhou Fangyuxiong's inclusion and formed the VERMILLION record.But this contradiction has deepened, making it more and more difficult to reconcile, and the gap between the two is getting deeper and deeper...

Is it the cunning boy who is having a hot fight with Oda Tetsuro?

It was sent to Nagato Taiko's desk, and he browsed through the photos and videos in the recording studio, not only the silent and melancholy faces of the three young people in WANDS, but also the hearty and smiling face of Daikoku Maki.There are also Oda Tetsuro who turned his head sideways to talk and laugh with Daikoku Moki, and Oda Tetsuro who was meditating at the console.

...and Shinichi Iwahashi, who had a good chat with Oda Tetsuro.

For this collaboration, Shinichi Iwahashi sold a big favor to Tetsuro Oda.Not only invited him to participate in the arrangement and production, but also after listening to his opinions, he personally came forward to ask for the name of a music producer for Oda Tetsuro.

Nagato Taiko sneered in his heart, thinking that this slippery boy was only doing things like pretending to be a good person to give favors.

However, it’s the same thing to be annoyed by that slippery boy. Thinking of this good opportunity that can help WANDS to open up the situation, Nagato suppressed his mood and waited for the release of the single and WANDS took advantage of this east wind. moment.

Nagato Taiyuki continued to look down. In the photos and videos sent, there was even a picture of Iwahashi Shinichi being surrounded by three young people from WANDS. The three young people looked at Iwahashi Shinichi like students listening to a class. Every move.

He sneered—he really knows how to pretend to be a good person.

……

With Dahei Moji in the limelight, whoever cooperates with her now will get a lot of attention.

Coupled with Oda Tetsuro, a new famous composer, and a friendship story that has been carefully played up in the media as the background of the cooperation, it is difficult for the whole project to be unobtrusive.

In this way, the rookie band called WANDS sent by VERMILLION will definitely benefit from the cooperation.

This is obvious.Even the audience felt that it was "bundled sales of popular singers and newcomers". As the person who facilitated the cooperation, it is impossible to be unclear about this truth.

Zhou Fang Yuxiong, who introduced the band, knew it well, and the representative Shunichi Baba from VERMILLION also knew it.As for Shinichi Iwahashi himself, he knows that this cooperation will bring huge attention to WANDS.

One thing that is obvious is that Tetsuro Oda is the composer of VERMILLION, and the collaborative single that is being produced is also a song by Tetsuro Oda.

With Dahei Moji's current fame and popularity, orders have been pouring in before the production of the single is completed, and the sales will never be bad.

On the face of it, this is a single by Dai Kuroki and her Green Leaf, and most people would think so.

But in fact, as long as the band takes advantage of the popularity of this single and releases a record composed by Oda Tetsuro, it will naturally pull the attention devoted to this single to their side.In other words, this cooperation is equivalent to the fact that this rookie band has a hit single.

If these three young people can seize this opportunity and take advantage of this gust of wind, they will naturally have a bright future ahead.

However, WANDS was able to take off with this gust of wind, which made Iwahashi Shinichi happy.

In order for the popularity of the band era to last longer, what is most needed is a steady stream of new bands.Regardless of whether the band is launched by itself or by a rival, as long as there are popular bands in the front line, as long as there are new bands that can enter the front line, the public's attention to the form of the band can be retained.

For the sake of long-term consideration, the difference between families is the least worth mentioning, and it should be happy to see a hundred flowers blooming.

The three youths of WANDS were obviously packaged by Taiko Nagato.A handsome lead singer, paired with a solid and reliable musician as the green leaf, this is an obvious "band idolization" packaging method.However, during the production of the single, Shinichi Iwahashi had contact with the band several times, and felt that these three young people were not empty-headed and just obeyed the kind of idiots arranged by the company.

Having their own ideas, but having to do work at the mercy of others, this made the three young people feel a subtle sense of pain caused by involuntary control.

Especially the lead singer named Uesugi Noboru, that handsome and unruly face, because of the involuntary pain, looked extraordinarily moving, and looked more beautiful than the simple, high-spirited handsome lead singer.

However, this charm brought about by pain is actually dangerous and fragile.

If these three young people have been patient and are at the mercy of the company, they must suppress their true thoughts until they can no longer bear the pain and go to destruction.

But if they give up their own ideas, willing to become pawns at the mercy of the company, or only have some mediocre dispensable ideas, then the charm brought by the pain will disappear , this band will be completely reduced to a performance band, no different from every incompetent third-rate band.

When Shinichi Iwahashi considered these things, he couldn't help thinking in his heart that the status quo of the band might be exactly what Nagato Taiyuki expected.If it weren't for the ideals and aspirations of these three young people, Nagato Taiko would not have been able to choose them.

There are so many production companies that open every year in the industry, and those that have been in business for ten years and have a record company are so few that they can be counted on their fingers.Although he had a history of letting Dai Kuromoji go because of judging people by their appearance, Nagato Daxing was able to achieve this level, of course, because of his two brushes.

It's just that Nagato Taiko's brush can't brush ordinary people.

It doesn’t matter what you have done with Taiyuki Nagato before, or Taiyuki Nagato has opinions on him. Anyway, in the plastics industry, no matter how much Taiyuki Nagato hates him, now GENZO and VERMILLION are also cooperating friendly.

However, there are three young people in the rookie band cooperating with Daikoku Moki, which made Iwahashi Shinichi pay special attention to them when he first cooperated.

However, when these three young people faced him, they were equally polite and alienated, as if they were naturally inarticulate and shy.But he was vaguely aware of the rejection of the three youths.

Yanqiao Shinichi was curious about this awkward band, but curiosity was nothing more than curiosity. Since he realized that he was rejected by them, he stopped at business.

……

It is a rare cooperation, and Shinichi Iwahashi does not intend to quickly complete the recording of the single, then end the production, wait for the release of the single, and then work together to complete the promotion work, but regards this cooperation as a musical exchange.

If you just record a single, then the workload is pitifully small.

But if this single is used as a bridge for cooperation and exchange, then work slowly and meticulously.Keep making, keep subverting.After being overthrown, it is possible to feel that the previous one was better, and to find it again—it becomes a big project.

Fortunately, he is the chief producer, and the rhythm is in his hands. As long as the production can be completed and delivered to print before the determined release date of the single, no matter how he struggles during this period, it is within the authority of the producer.

What's more, he didn't deliberately find fault with the singers, even the singer himself was addicted to it.

Tetsuro Oda took the initiative to participate in the discussion meeting, and he took the initiative to participate in the discussion meeting. Shinichi Iwahashi asked him for his opinion on the production of the song. After the production started, every time he saw it in the recording studio, he would chat with him about the music production. idea.

On the one hand, I am curious about what insights this talented composer has on music production.On the other hand, it is also preparing for inviting Oda Tetsuro to participate in the selection meeting held by GENZO.

The two of them chatted, and as long as Dahei Moji was present, they would soon join in.One is a friend who admires her, and the other is a producer who supports her. Daihei Moji, who is originally cheerful and casual, is even more relaxed in the recording studio.

During the cooperation period, the photographer who followed in the recording studio took many pictures of them chatting together.At that time, these pictures will definitely be edited and made into a promotional video.

During breaks, the three young people from WANDS always stayed in a corner not far away, sitting there like three obedient and well-behaved students, and seemed to be listening carefully.For a rookie band, it's normal to behave like this in front of popular singers and famous producers, but even if it is filmed and released, it doesn't matter.

However, although Shinichi Iwahashi gave up approaching these three youths, when talking about business affairs, he also asked the three youths for their thoughts and opinions according to his attitude towards musicians. During the production period, he also listened to their opinions. view.

During the production period, this single was arranged and sung again and again, and Shinichi Iwahashi also invited the three young people to participate in their opinions and complete the version they wanted.

For Iwahashi Shinichi, these matters are business affairs that treat everyone equally.

However, in the process of this official business, the original alienation shown by the three young people, as well as the slight rejection attitude towards Yanqiao Shinichi, gradually softened.
