The date for "Go Wandering" is scheduled for November 22, and the date for "WINTER, AGAIN" is scheduled for December 6, with only two weeks apart. It is not difficult to see how Nagato Daiyu is preparing to use the gimmick of "Go Wandering" to create momentum for Ye Zhao.

There is very little time left for single production, so Ye Zhao and his team had to work overtime to avoid postponement. When Masao Akashi asked about arrangement, Ye Zhao showed his desire to control the style for the first time: "Teacher, this song already has a relatively mature arrangement in my head, so this time I hope to complete it completely according to my ideas."

"You want to arrange the song yourself?"

"It's not considered a self-arrangement," Ye Zhao explained. "I plan to write this song more complicated, so although it has a preliminary structure, I have to ask the teacher for help in how to arrange it. After all, I still lack experience in this regard." The original song of this song itself is already very excellent. As a copywriter, he can restore the song to the greatest extent, which is also a kind of respect for the original author of the song.

"Um... OK." Akio Akio nodded and agreed to his statement.

Ye Zhao spent a whole week to complete the choreography of the new single with Masao Akishi. After the finished product came out, Masao Akishi praised it, but he said with regret: "Everywhere is good, but there is no BEING flavor."

Ye Zhao smiled, "That's how it's interesting, and listeners will definitely be shocked." The reason why there is no BEING flavor is because the arrangement of the entire song is dominated by Ye Zhao, and Akishi Masao only plays an auxiliary role. Without his strong-style arrangement, the overall style is naturally separated from the BEING flavor.

In the recording studio late at night, Ye Zhao recorded the songs over and over again at the request of the recording engineer. He was so energetic that he had sang for two hours in a row. "WINTER, AGAIN" is a song that tests singing skills very much. After Ye Zhao signed a contract with BEING, he kept conducting vocal classes continuously. His singing skills have been upgraded from the beginning to a qualified singer based on his youth. Although he can't be called an A-level singer, it's always okay to get a B when doing the singing skills rankings. If it weren't for this, Ye Zhao wouldn't have been so bold that he chose such a difficult song.

"Ye Zhaosang, please take a break." The recording engineer notified Ye Zhao with the speech microphone connected to the recording studio.

After receiving the instructions, Ye Zhao took off his headphones and sat down on the sofa in the recording studio. Soon after, his assistant Akihiko Aragaki sent a cup of honey water prepared in advance. Ye Zhao frowned and drank it all in one go as if he had finished a task. He put down the cup, his face full of disgust. Seeing this, Akihiko Aragaki joked: "Ye Jun, this is the first time I have met a singer who hates honey."

"There is no way, it's not okay to not maintain your throat." Ye Zhao turned on the mineral water bottle and rinsed his mouth. It is said that some singers would drink turtle blood in order to maintain their throats. This state he would never reach in his life.

After a short rest, Ye Zhao stood up and walked towards the control room opposite. BEING's production model for singers is relatively loose and free. The iron fist state that producers say the same thing, and singers can only obey unconditionally, almost no one exists, so its singers can basically participate in the production of songs. If the singers themselves have sufficient creative ability, do not have to be subject to the composer, and do not intend to play with something innovative, then this company is actually a very good choice.

In the control room, I had some discussions with the recording engineer and decided to modify some things to pay attention to in the following singing. Ye Zhao looked at the watch and it was almost twelve o'clock in the evening. I felt a little hungry, Ye Zhao ordered Aragaki Akihiko, "Go and buy some Kanto cookies and so on for late supper, count the number of people, and prepare one for the Stafsans."

Recorder Shimaya Fuka smiled and said, "It seems that I will be blessed by Ye Zhaosang."

"It's thanks to everyone. I have to work with me so late." Ye Zhao said politely.

Half an hour later, Aragaki Akihiko left and returned, but came in with another girl.

"Miss Imai?" If Ye Zhao remembered correctly, this girl should have followed her assistant for the first time when she met Sizumi Sakai.

Akihiko Aragaki explained to her: "I met me when I came back just now. Miss Sakai came to record tonight and asked Imai to buy midnight snacks and bring them together."

Imai raised the plastic bag in his hand in a row, "Ye Zhaosang, Mr. Shimatani, Miss Sakai asked me to bring it to everyone."

"It's so great. Please help me thank you Miss Sakai!" Shimatani Teng hurriedly took the plastic bag, and the terrifying popularity of Sakai Izumizu can be seen here.

"Miss Imai, has the recording of Miss Sakai started?"

"Not yet, Ye Zhaosang. The assistant recording engineer is still debugging the equipment."

"Since that's the case," Ye Zhao put down the music score, "Can I visit Miss Sakai? Since the senior is here, it is impolite for those who are juniors not to greet him. Besides, she also sent her midnight snacks."

Sakai Insumi has her own exclusive recording studio in this birdman WEST recording studio. When Ye Zhao passed by, she was holding a cup of hot tea in her hand and chatting with her recording artist Katsuhiro Shimada. The staff holding a video recorder in the corner stood there silently, and neither Sakai Insumi nor Shimada Katsuhiro Shimada was surprised. Since Sakai Insumi has announced that she will no longer be on TV since 1993, photographers often appear around her. She recorded her every move inadvertently for editing and producing singles MVs or for future releases.

"Good evening, Sister Quanshui."

Sakai Izumi smiled warmly, "Good evening, Ye Jun. Are you here to record today?"

"Yes. The new single is scheduled for December 6th, so it's not OK to be rushing to work."

"What kind of song was prepared this time?"

Ye Zhao thought for a while and invited, "If Sister Quanshui is interested, should she go and listen?"

In the recording studio, Sakai Izumi put on his headphones and quietly listened to the song "WINTER, AGAIN". After listening to the song, Sakai Izumi praised, "What a good song." After a turn, "But the change in this style of music is really big. If you hadn't shown it to me personally, I would have thought that I had got the wrong song."

"This is what you want." There is also a small connection between GLAY and ZARD. In 1998, GLAY played a trick to release two new singles on the same day, and occupied one or two of the singles weekly charts, which caused many singers and bands to follow this behavior. ZARD's planners also followed suit and released the singles "New Door~ Winter Sunflower" and "GOOD DAY" on December 2, 1998, but the result was unsatisfactory. The release of two singles at the same time dispersed the sales, which made ZARD's Zhou Guan finally intercepted by the Rainbow Band.

In addition, GLAY's selected "REVIEW" released in 1997 led to the RB's selection craze. At that time, the top few albums on the album list were all selected albums. BEING naturally did not miss this opportunity to make money. He successively released double selections for B’z, and released three selections for ZARD in two years, which directly caused ZARD to spend all its sales. The original album directly dropped from one million sales to 300,000, and never recovered.

Even in the total sales rankings, GLAY and ZARD are "enemy". ZARD, which was originally ranked seventh in total sales history, was ranked above the top by the latecomer GLAY, and was squeezed to the eighth place with a gap of less than 500,000 copies. Various subtle connections have made the two bands not very close to their music styles, but they are often put together. Although they are not polite to GLAY fans, in a sense, GLAY can be regarded as the nemesis of ZARD.

After listening to the title song, perhaps because he was quite confident in Ye Zhao's songs, Sakai Izumizu also became interested in the single C/W. "What songs did C/W prepare this time? I received the fax and seemed to have sampled "Don't Give Up."

"That's right," Ye Zhao smiled, "Maybe Sister Izumi will be disappointed when she hears it." According to the RB Copyright Law, singers can use it as long as they obtain the consent of the music publisher when covering the song, and then pay the usage fee to the Music Association. However, in actual operation, even if it is just for necessary etiquette, singers often need to seek the consent of the original singer and the songwriter. Ye Zhao and ZARD belong to the same company, so when they were preparing to record, they had already informed Oda Tetsuro by phone and sent a fax to SENSUI, the personal firm of Sakai Izumi, through BEING.

Track1 has not been officially recorded yet, and Ye Zhao gave the sample to Sakai Izumizu and said to Masao Akishi at first. After listening to the song, Sakai Izumizu pondered for a moment, "Isn't this quite good? I don't know much about composition, but this melody is very interesting and not cliché at all."

"real?"

"Of course it's true. Nowadays, best-selling songs often use the routine of music with chords, so it sounds very clever. This melody is just the opposite, so it sounds a bit messy at first, but if you savor it carefully, it's actually quite exciting."

"Since that's the case, Sister Quanshui, I have a small request..." After hearing her words, an idea appeared in Ye Zhao's mind.

"Hmm?" Sakai Izumi tilted her head, looking at him with bright eyes.

"It's rare to meet Sister Izumi, so although I'm a little rude, I want to ask Sister Izumi to help sing the climax part of the opening part of "Don't Give Up" for this song. Is that OK?" Ye Zhao said, looking at Izumi Sakai with some anxiety.

Sakai Izumizu thought about it, but finally nodded and agreed, "Okay!"

Soon, Sakai Izumizu's assistant came over to ask her to return to the recording studio. Ye Zhao got up and sent her out. While there was no one around, he whispered: "Sister Izumizu, thank you for the last time and this time."

Sakai Izumizu shook her head, "I'm very happy for you to clean up the scandals. The next time is a crucial time for you. Since you have asked it, I can still help you."

"Sister Quanshui..."

Sakai Izumizu smiled and calmed down the atmosphere, "Instead of being moved, you might as well think about what else can be used for me. I am not the kind of person who treats others with all my heart as long as I am determined to be my own. If you don't make more requests while I'm generous, you won't have such a good opportunity next time."

"Will Sister Quanshui agree to any request?" Ye Zhao's eyes lit up.

"If it's too much, it's definitely NG."

"Then... I want Sister Quanshui's phone number!"

Sakai Izumizu wrinkled her nose, "Do you have the only pursuit?"

"How is this a 'point'?" Ye Zhaozhen said, "It's something that everyone in RB dreams of having the contact information of Sister Quanshui!"

Ye Zhao's righteous look made fun of Sakai Izumizu. She faced Ye Zhao and stretched out her right hand.

"Hmm?" Ye Zhao was stunned for a moment, immediately came to his senses, took out his phone from his pocket and handed it over. Sakai Izumizu skipped her clever fingertips on the keyboard, and then handed the phone back.

"Remember to keep it." Sakai Izumizu teased.
