Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1194
The initial sales of TRF's single were released. After the meeting in the morning, Shinichi Iwahashi was planning to call Mayumi Watanabe. When he returned to the office, the clerk first relayed a call from U-MIZ.

As soon as the call was connected, it was transferred to Mayumi Watanabe. She cut to the point and said, "Congratulations."

Yanqiao Shinichi asked knowingly, "Is there anything worthy of congratulations?"

"At a time like this, no one will be able to bear you if you play tricks." Wanyumi Watanabe said mercilessly.Yanqiao Shinichi laughed straight at this sentence, and apologized to her, "...Okay, I will keep it in mind."

"Then, let's talk about your next arrangement." Mayumi Watanabe changed the subject.

Yanqiao Shinichi also became serious, "Next, it is better to say that it is arranged by Komuro-san than by me." After a pause, "If I want to say what I can arrange, I will do my best to create a Komuro-san who can A stage to show off your talents.”

After listening to Wanyumi Watanabe, she commented: "This is much more troublesome than arranging a team."

"But the prospect of the future is definitely not limited to this combination." Yanqiao Shinichi replied.

This remark hit Wanyumi Watanabe's heart, she smiled slightly, "Then, let me listen to the prospect of the future."

"As expected of Manyumi-san." Iwahashi Shinichi also smiled, "If the next thing doesn't satisfy you, do you want to vote 'against' for me?"

Wanyumi Watanabe was half-joking and half-serious, "The ticket in my hand only has 'support' written on one side."

Yanqiao Shinichi stopped smiling, "It's incredible." He also replied half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Then I will try to convince you."

"Okay." Wanyumi Watanabe responded, kept silent, and waited for the next sentence.

Shinichi Iwahashi told her, "First, let's rent the space at Wangan Plaza again."

"Want to hold a concert for TRF there?" With previous experience in cooperation, Wanyumi Watanabe knew it when she thought about it.However, Shinichi Iwahashi denied, "TRF will participate in the concert."

He reveals his answer: "We're going to hold a big show with the theme of European electronic dance music."

On the other end of the phone, Wanyumi Watanabe was taken aback when she heard the answer he revealed.

But this moment of speechlessness was not because he couldn't understand what Shinichi Iwahashi was thinking.On the contrary, he guessed the intention of Yanqiao Shinichi.

Once you guessed his intentions, you knew his ambitions, and you got answers to many things.

While Mayumi Watanabe was silent, Shinichi Iwahashi also kept silent patiently.Both ends of the phone were quiet.However, neither of them would ask the phrase "Are you listening?" just because the answer is obvious.

"Such a concert."

Watanabe Mayumi opened her mouth, and on the other end of the phone, Iwahashi Shinichi replied "Yes."

Since you want to achieve this level for Xiaomuro-san, please tell me what agreement you and Xiaomuro-san have made. ...Watanabe Wanyumi was about to continue, but suddenly changed her mind, and felt that it was inconvenient to discuss major issues that would determine the future on the phone, and asked him, "Can you spare some time today? Let's meet and talk."

Shinichi Iwahashi glanced at today's itinerary posted on the table, "At three o'clock in the afternoon, I will visit you."

……

The two companies are so close that you can walk there with just a walk.

Wanyumi Watanabe met Iwahashi Shinichi in the small living room in her office.When Shinichi Iwahashi was led over, the scene of toasting with Mayumi Watanabe here flashed in his mind.

TRF's hit single is worth a celebration.To be precise, after the morning meeting was over, the staff had already gone to the hotel where the celebration would be held.

But Watanabe Wanyumi did not intend to celebrate the big sales of TRF singles.

The two sat down, Yanqiao Shen took the tea brought by the clerk, thought for a while, put it down again, and started the topic, "If the concert at Wangan Plaza can be successfully held, it will not be a problem to set off a round of electronic dance music popularity. ...Manyumi-san, young people only accounted for [-]% of TRF's initial sales of singles."

This also means that the style of this combination has the hope of becoming popular across all ages.

Watanabe Wanyumi followed his words and reminded, "Such a concert will improve Komuro-san's reputation." Of course Shinichi Iwahashi knew this, but she was not so much a reminder as a reminder Talk primer.

"That's natural. Komuro-san is going to become famous all over the world with the combination of TRF." Iwahashi Shinichi replied.He changed the subject, "However, there is no free lunch, no wedding dress made for others, Wanyumi-san."

To plan such a concert in which the real protagonist is actually Tetsuya Komuro, and give him a world-famous showcase stage, such an approach requires a prerequisite, that is:
The fashion that Tetsuya Komuro will lead will be carried out with the support of Shinichi Iwahashi.

In other words, Tetsuya Komuro is not only the leader of this trend, but also the partner of Shinichi Iwahashi, and at the same time, he is also a part of GENZO's future plans.

This is the premise for Yanqiao Shinichi to cultivate Komuro Tetsuya with all his strength and to cooperate with him without reservation.If this was not guaranteed, Iwahashi Shinichi would not have such trust in him.

Komuro Tetsuya is ambitious, and during the process of getting in touch with him, Iwahashi Shinichi was even surprised by the ambition of this talented musician.Although TRF has just been produced, and the future of the group is still unknown, the ambition of this talented man is not only to become a golden player in the Japanese industry, but has even included entering the world in his vision for the future. middle.

In Tetsuya Komuro's heart, what he produces is music that can go beyond Japan.

Ambition is not a bad thing, no matter when, Iwahashi Shinichi will think so.In the stage of developing new trends, the most important thing to find a partner is the person's ambition.

If Yanqiao Shinichi wants to win over Tetsuya Komuro, the most effective way is to give him the power to use his fists.

As soon as TRF becomes popular, Tetsuya Komuro will become famous in the industry.After the concert, his name and the music he produced will become the focus of the world.Since Tetsuya Komuro can produce TRF, he can also produce other singers. At that time, there will be many people who will come up with ideas on him. It is just a producer contract, which is far from enough.

To prevent others from picking peaches, let Tetsuya Komuro become a peach tree planted on the ground of GENZO.

When Shinichi Iwahashi found Tetsuya Komuro and hit it off with him, he was convinced that there would be a popular electronic dance music, and began to discuss cooperation and plan to produce TRF, he had already given enough sincerity:

Set up a Komuro class in GENZO, set up a special label for Komuro Tetsuya, and let him show his talents.

"New label?" Wanyumi Watanabe was not surprised after hearing Shinichi Iwahashi's plan.

Rather, such an arrangement was expected.Shinichi Iwahashi and Tetsuya Komuro originally had such cooperation on the premise of reaching a consensus.

This kind of thing can be concealed from the outside, but it can always be revealed to the inside.It's not impossible for Wanyumi Watanabe to know some clues.

Iwahashi nodded carefully, and then felt dry mouth, picked up the cup in front of him again, and took a sip of the warmed tea, "What Komuro-san wants to make is music that is different from Genzo's usual style. To facilitate the management of different styles, there is nothing wrong with the establishment of a new label. Besides, the establishment of a new label is also convenient for Komuro-san to display."

"I know." Wanyumi Watanabe said, with a hint of subtle dissatisfaction in her tone.It seemed that what she really wanted to hear was something else.

"I am very confident in the future of electronic dance music." Iwahashi Shinichi did not notice the subtlety in Wanyumi Watanabe's tone, talking about his outlook, "After TRF has achieved success in this way, I am more confident .”

Watanabe Mayumi looked at him, "What do you mean?"

"A group that appears suddenly, randomly appears in a disco in Tokyo every night, which can mobilize the public and let them run with the group, which shows how empty people's hearts are."

The propaganda techniques used here at TRF would have been useless if used in the heyday of the bubble a few years ago.If he hadn't got this right, Iwahashi Shinichi would never have thought of using such a method.

The same propaganda strategy, if you choose the wrong era, then you will fail.It's like moving songs and film and television works that are out of date to another era, and the public will not buy it.Some works that were unknown when they were first produced and released, but suddenly became popular many years later, can be said to be "advanced", or hit the times.

However, the more "advanced" works, if they were born in the right era, they might not be able to be produced.

Advanced experience, if it cannot be combined with the reality of the current era, is just wishful thinking.At most, after many years in the past, similar methods appeared and were dug out, with a sigh of "advanced".But that's pointless.

If you want to make something that the people of this era like, you have to think from the position of the people of this era.

"Actually, Dahei Moji's publicity strategy was very successful last year, and the clues have already appeared. Compared with the previous few years, the public at that time had already shown a declining trend. That's why a sudden appearance 'Heroes' sucked away the attention. Unexpectedly, in just one year, the emptiness has only intensified."

When Shinichi Iwahashi said the phrase "I didn't expect it", Wanyumi Watanabe didn't believe it.Rather, it was based on the success of Daihemoji, which made him see that the old era was over, and this is how TRF was born.

"Manyumi-san once mentioned," Iwahashi Shinichi changed the subject, "Practitioners in the industry have responsibilities to the public."

Watanabe Wanyumi looked at him.

"When the atmosphere of uneasiness hangs over the heads of the public, launching singers who can relieve the uneasiness is of course to create benefits, but it is also a responsible approach to the public."

Shinichi Yanqiao said with a smile, "I'm not flaunting that I want to be a socially responsible entrepreneur, but I just thought that if you don't have the belief of 'responsible to the public', you won't be able to produce something that the public really loves. things, then there is no way to talk about success or failure.”

Even if it only brings illusory comfort to the public, the comfort people get is real.

"Manyumi-san's words, I have always kept them in my heart." Yanqiao Shinichi's tone was full of appreciation and admiration.

Wanyumi Watanabe also laughed, but she didn't feel proud of it, she just said to him, "In this case, even if I don't say it, you will definitely think of it, Shinichi-kun."

"But if someone mentions this first...they will be one step ahead." When Yanqiao Shenyi said this, he couldn't help talking a little more, "Next, not only in the production of music, but also in the production of film and television dramas. Even, Movies and TV dramas have to bear even greater responsibilities.”

I am afraid that the content of the TV series will usher in a complete and complete update.

For those urban men and women who live in style, the biggest worry is which urban fashion drama they love will become a thing of the past, and the family drama that once lost the market may be revived again, because the world has come to an era where there is no support.Of course, at a time when people, traumatized by the bust of the bubble, long for and fear relationships, heartwarming family dramas just don’t feel real to them.

What the public needs is not a sweetener that can be seen at a glance as a fairy tale, but a more clever work that can make the public feel sorry for themselves.

"The TV drama industry is also waiting for Wan Yumi-san to practice the words of 'responsible to the public'."

When Shinichi Iwahashi said that, Manyumi Watanabe couldn't help laughing.But then, Shinichi Iwahashi mentioned the TV production company that cooperated with Kenyin, which made her stop laughing.

"The coming era is a good time for Yanyin to flex its muscles," she said lightly.

Shinichi Iwahashi agrees, and can't help mentioning, "In the next era, powerful firms will become stronger and stronger, small firms will be annexed one after another, and eventually large firms will dominate the industry. The era of 'friendship' between institutes."

"It is in line with the law of the recession." Wanyumi Watanabe commented.

Under the circumstances, to say such a thing, more or less, has the meaning of telling a cold joke.

Iwahashi Shinichi laughed at her words, but Watanabe Manyumi was thoughtful, "Cooperate with Kenyin..." She looked at Iwahashi Shinichi who was laughing, and suddenly asked, "Shinichi-kun wants to make an appointment with TRF's manager?" Play it to Yanyin?"

"What?" Shinichi Iwahashi responded.

Judging from this appearance, it is obvious that from the beginning to the end, there is no plan to give TRF's management contract to Yanyin.Mayumi Watanabe blinked her eyes, "Although Kenyin started as a music department, now the music department revolves around Nakamori-san."

"That's the way it is, so I didn't let the singer's management appointment go." Yanqiao Shinichi said.

For a firm with deep pockets like Yanyin, sending them an appointment with the manager of a popular group, I am afraid that it will not be beneficial to exchange resources in this way.

After hearing this, Mayumi Watanabe frowned slightly.

Won't give Yanyin the management contract of GENZO singer... Does this mean that he won't deal with Yanyin in music?

Watanabe Wanyumi thinks not.

I don’t think so now, and I didn’t think so before earlier.
