Chapter 215 Busy June

Hearing the sudden voices around them, both of them were startled, and subconsciously withdrew their hands.

"Mr. Akashi, this is really rude." Turning around and seeing Masao Akashi looking at the two of them with a smile, Akiyama Kazuki couldn't help complaining.

"Hay~Hay~" Masao Akashi spread his hands without sincerity, and then sat down on the sofa opposite them with his arms folded.

"When did it start?" Akashi Masao asked with interest.

"Eh?"

"Here." Masao Akashi lifted his chin and gestured to Izumi Sakai who was fiddled with the earphones with his head down.

"That...it's been a long time." Kazuki Akiyama showed a rare expression of embarrassment, and replied vaguely.

"When you saw Quanshuijiang for the first time, I knew you were impure, but I guessed it right."

Speaking of which, Akashi Masao sighed regretfully.

"Mr. Akashi, please don't make me sound like a bad guy." Kazuki Akiyama looked helplessly at this senior teacher who was out of shape.

"Haha" Seeing his crazy appearance, Akashi Masao laughed heartily.

When Izumi Sakai heard Kazuki Akiyama talking about bad, he couldn't help but imagine his image as bad, and then he couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, I won't joke with you. On the contrary, I think you are not suitable. Anyway, I wish you all the best."

After laughing for a while, Akashi Masao sincerely wished them to be each other's other half.

"Thank you, teacher." Kazuki Akiyama also returned the salute earnestly, while Izumi Sakai showed a rare shy expression, but still nodded his head slightly.

"Oh, that's right. I will keep it a secret for you." Masao Akashi winked at Kazuki Akiyama while speaking.

"Ha" Kazuki Akiyama couldn't help chuckling, he wasn't really worried.

Although whether it is her or herself, this year is the year when both of them became popular and their popularity soared.

But Kazuki Akiyama doesn't have any idol burden, or worry about losing fans because of love.

Because no matter how you hide it, if you decide to keep going, there will always be a day when it will be known or announced.

It's just that some things depend on the attitude of the other party. Thinking of this, Kazuki Akiyama turned his head and looked at her.

And Izumi Sakai seems to have thought of the same problem, and is also turning his attention here.

The two confirmed each other's eyes, and they didn't need too many words to understand each other's intentions.

She smiled peacefully, and turned her head as if nothing had happened.But there is no need to explain it to others, just let things take their course.

Izumi Sakai sat for a while before getting up to say goodbye and leave. Her release plan for this year's songs has also been scheduled until the end of the year.

As an artist becomes popular, the record company will arrange the production of singles and albums one after another.

Basically, there will be a single released in one to two months, and a song frequency of one album a year.

For example, her popularity skyrocketed because of the double-A single "Don't Give Up/TOMORROW" at the beginning of the year.

The current sales volume has exceeded 180 million copies, and it is very likely that the sales volume will reach 200 million copies by the end of this year.

So Nagato Taiko also adjusted her song plan, and in the first half of the year, she almost kept releasing singles every month.

Now she is busy with the production of her new album and spends all day in the recording studio, so although this year is a year when she achieved a breakthrough and her popularity skyrocketed.

It was also her busiest and most tiring year.

Fortunately, she really loves singing, so far she doesn't see boredom in her eyes.

Kazuki Akiyama only hopes that she can do what she loves in the future, but it will not be so tiring, just do as she pleases.

"Hey, kid. You have already gone far away, why are you still in a daze."

Masao Akashi's sudden thought of ridicule interrupted Kazuki Akiyama's reverie.

"Mr. Akashi, I'm not an idiot, so you don't need to look at me like that."

My teacher is good at everything, but sometimes he is too detached, and the appearance of being disrespectful for the old is very troublesome.

"I remind you that it's time to calm down. You are busy with some things below." Masao Akashi shook the composition in his hand, and looked at him gloatingly.

The work on the album is far beyond that of the singles. First of all, the seven newly added songs need to be arranged.

And because it is a song in the same album, the style should be properly considered.

Although there are many singers who will try different styles in the same album, they must not be too outrageous. No one style is relatively close.

So Kazuki Akiyama and Masao Akashi also racked their brains on the arrangement for this matter.

But because of the few singles released earlier, the style itself is not uniform enough.Now it is too late to highlight a more distinctive style.

So after a few days of trial and adjustment, I finally decided to create a multi-style and multi-theme album.

For example, pop rock such as "CANDY" and "Until the End of the World", as well as J-POP such as "Encounter", "Sakura", and "Bridge of Glory".

This looks much more pleasing to the eye, although compared with the current albums with a more distinctive style, it is still a bit different.

But compared with the hodgepodge at the beginning, it is easier to accept.

The style is determined, and the arrangement work goes on smoothly.The next step is the radio of the instrumental accompaniment.

There are also vocal harmonies, which take a lot of time to complete.

As for the vocal harmony, of course he is also planning to ask the singers in Being for help.

B, z, WANDS, T-BOLAN, DEEN, Daikoku Moji, Utoku Keiko, they are all very powerful singers, it would be a waste to use such good resources.

Of course, there is also the own Sakai spring water, which cannot be absent.Well, according to Nagato Taiko's request.More communication, no problem.

After finishing all these tasks, it was my turn to enter the studio to record vocals.

Of course, this may be more than a month later. During this period, it does not mean that I can devote myself to my work wholeheartedly.

There are still a few things waiting for me, so I will take the initiative to find something today.

"Iijima-san, long time no see." Akiyama Kazuki signaled Iijima Mitomo to please sit down. "There are also Nakaju-san and Kimura-san."

Today it was the three of them who came to meet him again. Although they hadn't spoken yet, Kazuki Akiyama already knew the reason for their visit.

"It's really thanks to Akiyama-san this time. Akiyama-san's talent is really admirable."

As soon as he spoke the first sentence, Mitomo Iijima praised Kazuki Akiyama without hesitation.

Nakai Masahiro and Kimura Takuya also formally bowed to him, and at the same time they were convinced.

Their latest single hit the top of the charts in the first week, but the next two weeks were not so lucky.

The top of the list in the latest week is the luxury plastic surgery collaboration single produced by Being, which also has Kazuki Akiyama's participation.

However, thanks to SMAP's continuous song promotion, the ranking has been hovering in the top five.

Moreover, it can guarantee the shipment of more than [-] copies per week, which is already a remarkable achievement.

After all, there are only a few songs that sell hundreds of thousands of weeks, and there are only one or two songs a year.

The singles released by most artists are also hovering in the middle, with a sales volume of 50 a year, it can almost be ranked in the top [-] of the annual list.

And they have surpassed this result in only two or three weeks, and it is conceivable that the subsequent results will continue to improve.

This makes them who have experienced that they can't sell records, how can they not feel emotional in their hearts.
