Five hundred and twentieth chapters in the future

Hearing that he said, Tadao Okazaki and Kei Yoshida both smiled.

"Indeed, it's really cute."

Although it may sound unreliable, the simpler and straightforward parts are actually very important.

With the female lead singer as the core, and with a band of male musicians, the female lead singer's appearance can make people feel cute at first glance, which is already the victory of the first impression.

There is a female lead singer with good looks and temperament. Later, she can even shoot magazines as a model. In fact, there are many bands with female lead singers as the core, and girls who serve as lead singers have also been idols or models before.

In other words, the rise of this teaming model not only allows talented girls to show their skills, but also provides a new path to success for many girls who have some talent but are difficult to succeed in fighting alone.

Although not everyone can seize such an opportunity, or it should be said that there are more failures.

"Then," Ye Zhao continued, "there is no decent British rock in the music industry nowadays. This band is also good at strength, so, if you do it well, just fill the gap in the market."

"So, Ye Jun is optimistic about this band?" Tadao Okazaki asked him.

"Anyway, I think they will become famous." Ye Zhao replied. As for whether they can become famous, they don't care about him. After thinking about it, he added, "About this, I can also feel it from the fact that I have such a deep impression of them, right? To be honest, I saw their performance for the first time at that time, and I thought it would be a pity for such a band to debut."

"That's true." Tadao Okazaki smiled. Yoshida's expression was also quite gentle.

"However, although it is a bit rude, what is the 'T plan' mentioned by Mr. Okazaki just now?" Ye Zhao asked, "Of course, if it is something that is inconvenient to disclose, forget it."

"It's not something worth hiding," Yoshida explained. "In fact, it is a three-year star-making plan. During these three years, we have made plans for selected rookies, using first-class resources and producers to alleviate the current dilemma of the company's lack of successors."

The singer who took the lead either changed jobs or disbanded, so Sony had to take action from many parties to find ways to open up this situation of disagreement. The T plan is one link, and cooperating with him to establish an independent brand is one link, and even agreeing to Tetsuya Komuro to be reborn is one link.

"So that's it." Ye Zhao nodded.

"You said to Ye Jun before?" Tadao Okazaki said, "We Yoshida, who is capable and courageous, ambitious to make a career, has also proposed this T plan."

"Please spare me, Mr. Okazaki." Yoshida Kei smiled bitterly, but his expression was quite helpful.

As for whether his T plan has been successful, just seeing that he can become the first president after the reorganization of DefSTAR, is it already known that the result?

"The Yoshida family has many heroes in the recording industry, and Mr. Yoshida must be one of them." Ye Zhao also said.

Among the people named Yoshida, there are senior executives in the recording industry, among the producers, there are two big names, Takuro Yoshida and Ken Yoshida - the producer Yoshida in "LOVELOVE I Love You". This person also produced the band ULFULS, a Kansai-born band. ULFULS has appeared on this show many times later, which is related to this relationship.

As for who is ULFULS? The uncle who sang Ginza theme song with Queen Apple at the Red and White Songs Club is the lead singer of ULFULS.

By the way, Yoshida Ken was once the producer of Yoshida Takuro's record company FOR LIFE. The team of the program "LOVELOVE I Love You" also relies on the private relationship between musicians.

Just click to ask about other people’s company affairs. After understanding the basics, Ye Zhao stopped asking about it.

However, one thing we can know from what Yoshida Kei simply revealed is that his "T Plan" was originally selected for newcomers, which means that the old salted fish, Hirai Ken, has not yet caught his eye at this time.

As for the opportunity to choose Hirai Kazuki later, Ye Zhao felt that it was mostly the RnB trend that was coming, and he had a powerful RnB singer who had never been popular before, so he wanted to take the opportunity to salvage another one.

The topic of T plan was revealed, and I drank two more drinks. After the time was almost done, Ye Zhao finally brought the topic to Katsushi Hirai and mentioned this person.

Yoshida thought for a while, "I remember being recommended here to debut through Sony's internal draft... However, it has not improved much. Recently..." He paused, thought for a while, but still didn't remember.

"I just happened to listen to his song by chance," Ye Zhao took over the topic, "I think it's quite interesting. Kubota's song became a big hit last year. RnB has flourished in the world, but the Japanese RnB market is still a bit blank, so I want to try RnB production."

"However, it's hard to find a suitable singer. So even if it's a bit rude, I still want to try to ask."

Yoshida Kei thought about it.

Speaking of which, the time Ye Zhao chose is quite good. Yoshida Kei's T plan was launched, and the priority starting players have been confirmed. For at least a period of time, the focus of DefSTAR will be on TBG and the selected rookie singers. As for the little singer who has not improved at all, and has almost been stamped with "failed", Yoshida Kei thought for a long time and couldn't remember what he was doing recently, and he also knew that he was not valued at all.

It is not uncommon to outsource your own singers to produce for other companies. If you can use the outsourcing production company to improve your singer's career, it will be a win-win situation.

What's more, Ye Zhao himself has a production contract with Sony.

At this stage, DefSTAR's focus is undoubtedly on the upcoming TBG. As for the yellow flower that has never bloomed before, no one has time to pay attention to him and plan his career as a singer for him again.

At this time, Ye Zhao said that he wanted to go over and re-tread Hirai Kane, which was not a bad thing. Anyway, it was just a right to make the production, and it was not a person who had also given the film. If he really had a good look, it would be theirs to benefit.

Besides, when Ye Zhao mentioned Japan's RnB market, Yoshida Kei was also a little calculating about it.

As Ye Zhao said, the RnB market has not yet really emerged in the Japanese music scene, and the room for development is undoubtedly huge, but there is still a lack of someone to ignite this popularity.

In the 1980s, Kubota Takitsune once opened the RnB door and created the RnB that the Japanese accepted. No matter what it was, once they entered Japan, they would have to localize it, such as those crazy foreign words that were spelled with Katakana that were "daily-made".

The same is true for music. Global aesthetics are not feasible in Japan. If you want Japanese people to accept something, you must find a way to cut off the head and finish it again and perform a "daily chemistry" again. This will make it easier to succeed.

If you want to be successful, then you must retain the freshness of "Western" while "daily chemistry".

What kind of RnB is something that the Japanese can accept? This is something that needs to be explored. To explore, there must be sacrifices. Yoshida Kei is not the head of a record company who is too eager for quick success and instant benefits. However, he cannot give up the current hot band trend and turn to reclaim the wasteland of RnB.

He is the head of a record company with unique vision and accurate vision, not an artist, and does not have that kind of sentiment. For him, his primary goal is how to make the company profitable, how to get a piece of cake in this record market with unique powers, and alleviate the current situation of Sony's misfortune.

Now, Ye Zhao proposed that he wanted to reclaim this wasteland, although it was not exactly what Yoshida wanted, but it also made him quite excited.

The music scene in recent years has shown one thing: as long as something becomes popular, people who take advantage of the east wind will soon appear, and then push such things to the top, and they will lose their judgment more and more. Consumers who are keen on following the trend have also contributed to this trend.

If Ye Zhao can really do something in RnB and start a little, then he can take advantage of this to take advantage of the opportunity to launch newcomers in this field to enter the market.

Even if Ye Zhao fails - his failure is a valuable experience. Learning from his lessons can also help DefSTAR to avoid those traps when exploring the RnB market.

Considering this, Yoshida Kei is very moved. Even Tadao Okazaki, who would specifically recommend Yoshida Kei to Ye Aki, may not have no such idea in his heart - a little singer who has devoted himself to a half-dead career and gambles on the future.

In fact, TUBE, which was thrown by Sony to BEING, was not a star with high expectations. It was just that Sony formed a band with a little idol-style flavour with a try-and-see attitude. Unexpectedly, BEING actually found the pulse of success. Of course, he also experienced several consecutive shots in his debut. Daiyu Nagato even said that if the next episode did not improve again, he would have to disband them.

However, although it was originally produced with a bit of idol flavor, this band actually has its own stable creative output, not the kind of "performance band" that only ticks the instruments on the stage.

Yoshida Kei and Okazaki Tadao wanted to borrow Ye Zhao's hand, but for Ye Zhao himself, getting Hirai Ken over was not only because this person's strength was ready-made, it was easier than finding a newcomer from scratch. At the same time, he also had the same idea in his heart as those two.

Through singers like Hirai, who already have a deep RnB foundation, exploring the market can greatly save his own energy and summarize the experience he needs from him.

While succeeding, as the person who watered and fertilized the peach tree, he would never give up the opportunity to pick peaches.

In this regard, Hirai Kazunaki really puts a lot of his expectations.

Although everyone thinks about their own interests, the things they consider on a large scale are similar. Therefore, it is not too difficult to talk about this matter. Although he did not say "no problem" directly, just the attitude that Yoshida Kei showed during the meal was basically stable for him.

As for how to get the production rights of Hirai Kazuki in the future, Ye Zhao has the final say, Yoshida Kei has the final say. At least he cannot take the initiative to ask for a singer who has been in the industry for two years under DefSTAR on the spot. If he really does this, it would be a bit too rude.

Therefore, this matter can only be led by Yoshida Kei, who made the request to pass the production rights of Hirai Kazuki, and then he would accept it.

This is why we have to discuss it in private first. Sometimes, some etiquettes have to be followed.

At first glance, in this matter, it seems that the three of them crossed Hirai Kane's own opinion at the same time, and they also meant not to care about his opinion. However, this does not mean that Hirai Kane himself does not have the right to refuse.

Although his own rejection is only a reference, not to mention that he is not famous and has little weight when speaking.

So in fact, it was almost the time when three people chatted and decided the next career of a singer.

However, even those big-name singers can only agree at once when facing the requirements of the record company, or after fierce struggles, the difference between the two sides taking one step back on the premise of focusing on the company's requirements.

For example, the theme song "Sudden Love" of "Tokyo Love" was actually when the single was released at the beginning, Oda Kazuya wanted to release it as a single C/W song, but it was opposed by the record company.

After a bit of a dispute, both sides took a step back, so the double-A single "Oh! Yeah!/ラブ?ストーリーワル" was created. And relying on the song that Oda Kazumaki despised, the single was sold for 2.58 million copies.

Ye Zhao thought to himself that the reason why he had to fight and strive to set up a business is that he just didn't want to be able to decide his career so easily, even though he was doing this now.

But reality is like this, and there is no way that everyone in the world is the same. If you borrow Dazai Osamu, it is a horrible idea that will make people lose their self-esteem and give up all their efforts.

Of course, because people are different, what is waiting for above the rules is another layer of rules. Therefore, the idea of ​​pursuing "absolute freedom" is definitely a dream in the daytime, and there is no absolute freedom in this world at all.
