216. Trouble again

For the league leader of the green poem apple pie)

From Shinichi Iwahashi's standpoint, this is a good thing. Again, this is good news for the production team.

However, these words cannot be said directly, and it is necessary to listen to the statements of the representatives of the record companies first.

"That's a good thing. The first to speak was a representative from CBS Sony, "Actually, the more companies involved, the higher the probability that the plan will succeed." It's not a good thing to have your eggs in several baskets. ”

Even if the frequency of one KING is released every two months, it will be six KINGs in one year, not to mention that the actual situation may be more than that. In the middle, there is also a weekly group of bands that have won the rights to distribute films, so that the total is almost fifty groups.

If 20 of the 50 groups can sell 10,000 copies, this number is not insignificant, and it will only be indigestion if it is digested by a few record companies now.

A record company, the number of newcomers who are mainly promoted in the same period is limited.

"There's a problem here, though. This time, it was a representative of Victory Records, "Although it is good to increase the participation of the industry, as we who supported this show at the beginning, I hope to be able to get the corresponding assurance." ”

The meaning of this is also very clear, the show was a prototype at the beginning, and no one was optimistic about it. Now the company sitting here has chosen to join in under such circumstances, and it has supported the show, and the credit is not great, but it is not small, and there must be some privileges, such as priority selection or something.

However, before Iwahashi could speak, it was the representative of CBS Sony who spoke first, and he still said against it, "I don't think there should be such a thing as 'priority'. ”

The words of the representative of CBS Sony actually won the heart of Iwahashi Shinichi. However, as the first record company to join in, it is remarkable that it can be so sober and decisive.

"Why?" asked the representative of Victory Records.

"If 'priority' is introduced, then what's the point of involving other companies? "This is the first time that a representative from CBS Sony has come to the meeting today, and this is a young man who is not yet 30 years old and has a fat side.

"I think that in order to win the favor of a good band, you should show enough sincerity and come up with a plan that can attract them to join, rather than this first-come, first-served 'priority'. "CBS Sony's representative hit the nail on the head.

If the first record company has priority, then there is no point in bringing in other record companies, because they are destined to pick and choose the rest. For amateur bands, when there were only a few record companies to choose from, it was another story, but if there were many choices, but they had to hand over their fate to a few record companies first, the contestants would have distrust of the program and the company.

Representatives of CBS Sony saw at a glance the disadvantages of "priority" and pointed it out.

"This ......" the representative of Victory Records hesitated.

"I think that's true. "Obviously, the more involved the industry is, the more attention will be paid to the show, and this attention will be beneficial to the bands, even if we sign it. ”

"The ...... from CBS Sony," the AMUSE representative glanced at the name tag in front of him, "Hirai-san, he's right about one thing. To get the favor of a good band, there is no point in 'priority'. After all, even if it's just us, when we pick a band, the band has the right to refuse, it's not 100% in the first place. ”

Speaking of which, it's almost already decided.

From beginning to end, Watanabe Manyumi, as the producer and investor of the show, did not say a word. However, when Shinichi Iwahashi exchanged glances with her, he also read in her eyes that he did not approve of "priority".

To put it bluntly, talent shows are meant to be fair.

Not only should the bands that go to the competition be fair, but also the companies and companies should be fair when dealing with the signing issue, otherwise, the company with priority will behave arbitrarily, and the company that chooses the next person will not be willing to pick the rest, and will only mess up.

"This ...... All right. I'm sorry to take back what I just said. The representative of Victory Entertainment also reacted quickly, since the interests and disadvantages have been broken, others are not stupid.

This vignette was unveiled as the representative of Victory Entertainment bowed his head.

However, the news brought by the production team, as well as the proposal of the representative of Victory Entertainment just now, made Iwahashi Shinichi come up with an idea temporarily. He proposed: "The next live broadcast will also allow representatives of record companies and studios to sit behind the censors." ”

"Oh?" in the conference room, everyone's eyes were focused on him.

Shinichi Iwahashi didn't mind being the center of attention, and explained unhurriedly: "Having them present just proves that we are talking about it, and we are really going to release records for the band and give them the opportunity to sign contracts." ”

Just for this?

Of course it's not just for that.

"Not only that," Shinichi Iwahashi said, "I would like to make a point of mentioning to the band and the audience that not only the amateur bands are constantly changing, but also the representatives of the record companies and studios sitting in the audience." ”

"Since there are a few record companies that are interested in our show, we need to open the door to the audience for them. If they think they have the talent they need, then they submit their application, sit behind the examiner, and sit there and have the opportunity to participate in the fight for the winner. ...... Of course, equally. ”

"Similarly, if you think it was a mistake to join and that there is no need to stay here, you can opt out. In each episode of the program, not only the bands on the stage are changing, but even the representatives off the stage are also changing. Iwahashi said.

In this way, no one can guess what will happen when the next episode of the show starts.

Halfway through Iwahashi's proposal, the atmosphere in the conference room changed. When he said this idea in its entirety, the staff sitting here were all shocked.

"The idea ......"

Too bold, but at the same time too powerful.

The people in the production team were taken aback by the idea that Shinichi Iwahashi proposed, which simply showed the show's own lifeblood to the public.

But then I think about it, and I feel a thrill in the midst of this uncertainty and constant change.

The show got better and better, attracting more and more industry figures, and the show went from the first few record companies to choose bands, and in turn turned into record companies doing everything they could to get bands to join.

However, if the show gets worse and worse, it will have the opposite effect and directly magnify the decline in front of the audience.

It's an all-or-nothing bet.

How confident does it take to come up with such an idea?
