Chapter 96: There must be a limit to chaos

In the original version of the song "Love Talent", the person who served as the backing singer for Kawamoto Kazuyoshi was Okamura Yasuyuki. Now, Ye Zhao naturally has the responsibility to take over this task, which can be regarded as adding a little topic to her debut song.

To be honest, Ye Showa and Kawamoto Kawamoto's voices are not very compatible, so before officially producing the single, he first commissioned the recording studio here to create such a sample of the audition. If the effect is too poor, he will give up this plan.

"Well, although it's a bit weird, the unexpected effect is good." Hearing his backing singing, Ye Zhao nodded thoughtfully.

"It was indeed a bit abrupt when I first listened," the recording engineer interrupted, "but although it was weird, it was quite weird and it made people want to listen back.

Ye Zhao looked at Kawamoto Kawamoto, "What do Miss Kawamoto think?"

"I think it's good too. If it's in other songs, such a backing song may not be suitable, but this arrangement has the feeling that it should be, and it's very fashionable." Kawamoto and Dayton paused and added, "This is not a routine, it's related to the quality of my debut song. I can't be irresponsible to myself."

Since officially signing with Sony, Kawamoto Kawamoto became much more confident when he met her at the beginning. When recording, if he had different opinions, he would put it forward directly. Of course, this change is not a bad thing. Knowing her change, Ye Zhao naturally didn't worry that what she said was not the truth.

"Since that's the case, then we'll record it like this." Ye Zhao decided.

...

"Make a movie?"

"That's right. Mr. Takeda, if you want to make a movie, what preparations should you do in the early stage?"

"Well," Takeda Shun thought for a while, "I don't know much about the more specific things, but first of all, of course, I have to prepare the script, and then seek investment, establish a production committee, and after the funds are in place, select the director and production team staff, finalize the cast, and conduct selection and negotiation of studios and locations. After these are almost the same, we can start."

“Production Committee?”

"Since you want to make a movie, the most basic thing is to have sufficient funds. The more investors you get, the more abundant you will get. Then there are the equipment, studios and locations you need during the shooting. With the support from TV stations and film production companies, these are all ready-made. When the movie is produced and ready to be released, it must be rated through the movie distribution company. Before the release, it must be promoted on TV and offline, and wait for the movie to be released, and there will be subsequent video tape releases..."

"It sounds very troublesome, right? That's why we need to set up a production committee. In addition to attracting investors, we also need to join the film production companies, film distribution companies, TV stations, publishing houses, and advertising companies. In this way, someone will help share the troubles in the previous areas."

"But if such a large number of characters are involved, wouldn't the director be constrained everywhere in the production process of the movie? And so many people will share the fruits together, and there is very little profit in terms of profits, right?"

"That's right, this is actually a means to avoid risks. Now that the film market is so sluggish, if the box office fails and cannot recover funds, the more members of the production committee, the less they will be compensated according to the sharing responsibility system."

It is because of this that the market will get worse and worse... Ye Zhao complained silently in his heart.

After giving a due diligence and responsibilities, Takeda Tsubasa finally couldn't help asking: "Why did Ye Zhaosang suddenly remember to ask this?"

"Sang Takeda, I plan to make a movie."

"Make a movie?!"

"Yes, I'm going to invest myself and make a movie."

‘This…’ The expression on Takeda Toshi's face was a little entangled. He did not directly answer support or objection, but silently handed over the notice in his hand. “I think Ye Zhaosang should consider this first when it comes to making a movie.”

Ye Zhao took the notice and glanced at it, "Cultural broadcast?"

"It is an invitation to the naming radio group. The time is temporarily from October this year to April of the second year. Every Tuesday from 10:00 to 11:00, which is a very good time for radio. Cultural broadcasting is a radio station with the Kanto Broadcasting area as the broadcasting area, and the listening rate in the capital circle is very good. Musicians like Ye Zhaosang who are not on TV, it is beneficial or harmless to make a radio program."

"Radio." Ye Zhao did not reject radio. Even if he didn't mention his history of making a fortune, just the feeling of radio that was more casual than television would be enough to make him like radio programs.

The form of this radio group is roughly in the form of Ye Zhao + a guest in each episode, chatting and playing music, and then publishing your thoughts on the singles on the weekly singles on the weekly chart, and talking about the "drug things" in music that the audience wants to know. Generally speaking, you can think that the atmosphere will be very pleasant.

"If you look at it this way, it seems pretty good, and it's acceptable in terms of time." Ye Zhao nodded, "Please help me reply to the cultural broadcasting aspect. I'll accept this group."

"Understand." Takeda Toshi seemed to be very pleased that he had successfully diverted Ye Zhao's unrealistic attention. Unfortunately, the next second, his relief was immediately broken by Ye Zhao.

"...Please wait a moment." Ye Zhao suddenly stopped him.

Takeda Toshi turned around, "Does Ye Zhaosang have any instructions?"

"Mr. Takeda, can you buy the broadcast time period?"

"Buy the radio time?" Takeda Toshi was a little confused.

Ye Zhao nodded, "I want to do a radio drama."

"That, Ye Zhaosang." Takeda Toshi's expression was complicated, "I just said I wanted to make a movie, right?" Seeing Ye Zhao nodding, Takeda Toshi continued, "Is he going to do a radio drama again now?"

"Is there any problem?"

"This problem is serious!" The mature Takeda Toshi rarely put disagreement on his face. "Ye Zhaosang, although in terms of music, I think no one in RB will question your talent, but movies or radio dramas are two completely different fields. It is difficult for laymen to succeed if they break in like this."

Due to the relationship between the two, Takeda Toshi was unable to say more serious words, but looking at his expression, there was probably a sentence like "Even if you do something randomly, you have to have a limit." He was wandering around his mouth.

"Ye Zhaosang, take filming as an example. Although the threshold for movies is very low now, some firms even took out millions of yen to make a movie in order to add a resume to newcomers, and then released less than fifty halls. If Ye Zhaosang wanted to make a movie like this, I would even oppose this kind of money-wasting behavior."

"If Ye Zhaosang has a little pursuit of a movie, he wants to make a decent movie with a small cost, and he has to prepare more than tens of millions of yen for various investments. Even if the funds are in place, he still has to choose directors and technicians and audition actors, and even if this part is completed, all of them will be completed safely. Then how should we solve the shooting venues and studios, the distribution matters after production, and various series advertisements before release?"

"Suppose Ye Zhaosang successfully pulled up the production committee, and all this part was completed and the movie was successfully released. First, 50% of the box office revenue must be taken away by the distribution company, and the remaining part must be divided with the production committee. If the box office fails, such a large amount of money will be wasted."

"After talking about the movie, let's talk about radio dramas. Compared to movies, radio dramas are indeed easy to produce and the cost is very low. The broadcasting bureau has a special dubbing troupe and soundtrack staff, which is very simple. But since you want to make a radio drama, you must first have a script? Should this script be original or to purchase existing copyrights? The most important thing is that although the cost of radio dramas is low and the return is low, it is basically impossible to make a profit on it."

"Ye Zhaosang, I have seen many artists who suddenly become famous. After suddenly gaining huge wealth, they will come up with all kinds of strange means to squander it. Once the subsequent popularity and resources cannot keep up, they will immediately fall into financial difficulties. I have no intention of pointing fingers at Ye Zhaosang's decision. The income Ye Zhaosang created in less than a year is something that ordinary working people cannot earn in their lifetime. This is amazing. But even so, even if Ye Zhaosang's energy source continues to create such wealth, if you always think that one thing is one thing, I'm sorry, please allow me to refuse to continue to serve you."

Although Takeda Toshi's words were heavy, they were very earnest. From this point of view, Ye Zhao was still very grateful to him. However, "Taita Sang, I know that it is difficult for laymen to come into contact with brand new areas, but if they don't do it, they will always have no chance of winning 10 to 0. If they do it, the winning rate will be evenly matched 5 to 5."

"Even if Takeda Sang thinks this is something that only gamblers can say, I am definitely not on a whim. Putting money there is just money, but if you use it, it can be converted into something richer. Although things in the future are uncertain, maybe I will really have nothing because of investment failure - but I will always have more than I had a year ago."

"Even if that's the case," Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, Takeda Shun began to pay attention to other things, "Since you said you were prepared, then what movie would you want to make if you made a movie? If you made a radio drama, what kind of radio drama would you make?"

"The script of the movie is still under the conception, but it has been confirmed to be a low-cost drama. Of course, before the script comes out, it is all about paper talk." Ye Zhao paused, "So, let's discuss the radio drama first. I'm ready for the script. If Takeda Sang doesn't mind, now go back to the apartment with me, read the script first, and then draw a conclusion on whether I have a whim or not. How about it?"

"I don't understand the script." Takeda Toshiki said.

"It's another matter whether you understand or not. At least," Ye Zhao looked at Takeda Toshi, "I have to let Mr. Takeda believe first. I'm not doing anything suddenly, but I'm prepared."

"This..." Takeda Toshi thought for a while, "Okay."

...

Driven by Takeda Toshi, the two of them soon arrived at Ye Zhao's apartment.

After entering the room, "Mr. Takeda sits for a while." Ye Zhao let Takeda Shun on the sofa. Before going to get the script, he came to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator and poured two cups of bottled oolong tea.

"Just let it go, I only have this one here." I went to the studio and the set again, and the kitchen was already empty.

Takeda Shun didn't care. She picked up the cup and sipped the oolong tea while looking at the small living room. She noticed a handful of bass placed next to the TV cabinet and asked, "Does Ye Zhaosang still play bass?"

"That," Ye Zhao replied casually, "I have a friend who is a bassist. Not long ago, I returned to my hometown from Tokyo. I gave me a bass as a souvenir before leaving, so I started to learn to play recently."

"Oh." Takeda Toshi nodded.

Ye Zhao went to the typewriter and gave the script that had been sorted out and bound together with paper clips to Takeda Toshi, "Sang Takeda, please take a look."

Takeda Tsubasa took it, before he could read it, he was startled by the thickness of the script, "This is really amazing." He opened the cover and whispered: "Call love at the center of the world?"
