Before the production of the song began, the office first changed the choreographers for the two girls, and added two more costumers, and there was a ticket to follow the entry and exit, this configuration is comparable to a first-line idol.

enjoyed the treatment of a first-line idol in advance, so he had no choice but to work hard to enter the front-line.

Although the production rights were transferred to Shinichi Iwahashi, this time, the investment on GENZO's side was not large, unlike Chisato Moritaka at that time, who had to go to great lengths to choose songs and find lyricists.

The two girls initially made their debut plan as "WINK Waka Group", and the title songs of the next two singles will also be covered songs, and the songs will be selected directly from the popular Western dance songs prepared by the record company, and at most they will participate in the selection of songs.

Since it is a "Waka Group", one of the important steps is to replace the original foreign lyrics with Japanese, and the lyricist who is responsible for rewriting the lyrics has already signed a long-term contract with the lyricist and Kawamiko in preparation for the group's debut.

Miko Kazukawa debuted as a lyricist in 1985 through an audition held by Mitsubishi, and her qualifications in the industry are not deep, and her main scope of work is to fill in the lyrics of animated songs, and her reputation outside the animation industry is very small.

Being a lyricist was not actually her original intention, her first dream was to be a singer-songwriter, but on the way to learn an instrument, she couldn't even press the basic F big horizontal press well, and the singer-songwriter's dream finally fell in front of a closed chord.

can't be a singer-songwriter, so I have to settle for the next best thing, change my dream to an ordinary singer, and then find that my pitch is sparse, and I can't become a big demon king of singing skills, but it is possible to challenge the big devil who is out of tune, and the dream of a singer is shattered in front of the reality of a music idiot.

I can't be a singer, I have no choice but to change my goal and decide to become a lyricist.

Defeated again and again, defeated again and again, living by working part-time jobs, changing more than a dozen jobs in a row, and finally debuted as he wished, living a life of eating by engaging in music work, although he has been unknown since his debut, and he is not full of eating this bowl of rice.

This resume is a little funny, and there is a hint of bitterness in the funny, and there is a little slippery in the bitterness. Shinichi Iwahashi hadn't met Miko Yogawa, but he just read her resume from the people at the record company to get a general idea. After reading the resume, I only felt "funny".

The re-filling of the lyrics of foreign dance music does not pay much attention to what kind of deep meaning the lyrics can be written, the music itself is the key, as long as the lyrics are catchy and fit the style of the original song, so there is no need to go out of their way to find a famous artist.

The biggest reason why POLYSTAR will use Miko, who looks a little unreliable, is that she is cost-effective.

Despite this, at the beginning, the record company was trying to save money and how to get it, but because of Shinichi Iwahashi's participation, the money saved before was doubled, and the cost of making WINK soared.

Of course, Shinichi Iwahashi is not so easy to be a producer. Although the work of selecting the music is not so cumbersome, when the official recording is made, the arrangement has to be produced by GENZO, and how the two girls sing and how to reinterpret it must also be arranged by Iwahashi Shinyi.

To be a producer, you have to have a good eye and fashionable ears, and you don't just have to finish singing.

With Nagoya as the first stop on the DREAMS COME TRUE tour, after the performance, the new week saw an increase in the band's sales in the local area and the number of on-demand broadcasts on the radio.

After Nagoya are Kobe and Kyoto, and from Friday night to Sunday night, there are a total of eight performances in both places, and they are still small venues.

Shinichi Iwahashi met with the two girls of WINK on Friday morning, and in the afternoon he set off from Kanto to Kansai, seamlessly connecting work with work.

The eight performances in Kobe and Kyoto were similar to those in Nagoya, and tickets were sold from the very beginning. With the band's Heavenly Champion sign, locals have the idea of trying the newly opened snack bar chain with cheap and big bowls.

There is only one way to keep the lively audience and become your own audience, and that is to come up with a show that keeps them fed and satisfied.

When it comes to live performances, DREAMS COME TRUE is a no-brainer. Viewers who watched and listened to a certain signature dish found that no matter what the dish was, it was delicious.

If it's delicious, there will be repeat customers, and there will be spontaneous help to promote it. Because of this, after the first performance is over, and after really seeing the strength of the band, the next tickets are not only not sold, but also in a kind of sought-after.

In this sought-after situation, there are even cases of temporary price increases to sell tickets.

And every time they arrive at a place and set off a scene craze, when they leave and leave the audience with the unextinguished fire, there are all kinds of ways to bring these little sparks to many places.

Mars ignites Mars and then turns into a small flame. One small flame after another, the band that had already left could not see it, but in another way, they could feel the temperature of the flames and see the rising smoke-

Whether the effect is good or bad is reflected in the data obtained by the record companies and studios later.

......

The spark illuminates the way for the band to move forward.

The sales trend of the album is stable but there is a strong rise, and in the new week, the album sales are 7,000 more than the previous week, and they have won the 14th place on the album chart, which is the best result since the release of the band's debut album.

Selling albums is a trickle of work, the key is whether there is that momentum, the momentum is rising, in this way, even if it is not the explosive heat, it is enough to make people from all walks of life feel at ease.

In addition to the album, the debut single "So Happy, So Happy, So Happy!", which was originally based on the show, cooperated with the promotion, and the sales also rose all the way, and in the new week, a total of more than 50,000 copies had been sold, if it weren't for the fact that CBS Sony had stocked up 150,000 copies in advance before, it would now be out of stock.

The sales of real money made the band's debut single get the eleventh place on the list. If it weren't for the fact that there were several popular singers releasing singles this week, it would have been certain to break into the top ten.

Eleventh place, there is always a feeling that there is still a breath of air.

When I got the sales data, not only Shinichi Iwahashi thought so, but also the people in the company. But the eleventh place, under a special calculation method, can sometimes bring a small miracle of reversal.

"STARRING IN 'THE BEST TEN'?"

In the U-MIZ office, the three members of the band were a little surprised when they heard the news.

Since the official debut of the band, the number of times they have been on the music is limited, and they suddenly received an invitation to the current top music "THE BEST TEN", ESPECIALLY THE BAND'S SINGLE RANKING IS STILL THE ELEVENTH PLACE OF THE BREATH, RECEIVING SUCH AN INVITATION, NOT ONLY UNEXPECTED, BUT EVEN A LITTLE INEXPLICABLE.

"Isn't it eleven?" Miwa-chan asked directly.

Shinji Kurishima, who is in charge of the brokerage affairs of the three people, explained: "If you only look at the sales results, you will definitely not be able to get on. However, when combined with other data, it is not only on, but also more than enough. ”

"THE BEST TEN," which combines data from radio on-demand broadcasts and letters from viewers, could have reversed this situation if the rankings other than record sales were strong enough.

This kind of "reversal" can't be said to be one of the highlights of the show. However, it will definitely be a great opportunity for a singer who has "reversed".

"Although the single was ranked eleventh on the sales chart," said Shinji Kurishima, "the song 'So Happy, So Happy, So Like!' performed very well on cable and radio on demand, with radio on demand being ranked sixth, and cable broadcasting ranking third, beating the new song of popular singers. ”

Once the two lists are combined, there is still a breath of air, at least here in "THE BEST TEN", which is brought up.

And as long as this breath can be mentioned in the top music of "THE BEST TEN", are you still worried that the tone on the sales list will not be raised?

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Shinji Kurishima emphasized, "You must catch it." ”

......

On Thursday, DREAMS COME TRUE, which was preparing to perform for the first time since his debut, "THE BEST TEN," rehearsed not on the TV studio, but on the top floor of the TV station.

Tonight's debut, they're going to sing their own songs here. The reason why I chose such a location was because of the promotion of Watanabe Manyumi.

For this show, the luxurious background stage is standard, but the stage when the singer himself performs is different, and not the TV station has prepared a luxurious stage for every singer who enters "THE BEST TEN".

The luxurious set of the singer's performance is actually contributed by many parties, on the one hand, the TV station is willing to spend money, and on the other hand, the singer himself is also worthy of a large amount of stage decoration - that is, it is popular enough.

If it's not the kind of regular star who can get the program team to help burn money, then there needs to be a rich office, which has nothing to do with the record company.

The strength of the firm is also reflected in the set where the singer participates in the music, if the singer's stage is luxurious enough, then the office behind him is not a nobody.

DREAMS COME TRUE participated in "THE BEST TEN" FOR THE FIRST TIME, AND WHEN MANYUMI WATANABE WANTED TO MAKE A NAME FOR HERSELF AS A BAND AND SHOW OFF THE STRENGTH OF THE STUDIO ON THE OTHER HAND, SHE SENT SOMEONE FROM THE STUDIO TO DISCUSS WITH THE PRODUCTION TEAM FOR AN IMPRESSIVE DEBUT.

With Watanabe's production face, plus U-MIZ paying out of pocket, the production team also gladly accepted this proposal.

However, what kind of stage to prepare is not simply a matter of piling up money. The aesthetic first-class Watanabe Manyumi doesn't look down on the kind of splendid stage layout.

"Besides," she thought clearly, "it's important to make your debut and make the audience remember." If the stage is too exaggerated and attracts the attention of the audience, it ignores the performance itself. ”

It is necessary to impress the audience, but not to let the set dominate and steal the audience's attention, so we must find a balance in this.

Watanabe Manyumi thought about it for a while, and finally proposed an outdoor connection.

On the top floor of the TV station, the lights of the city that never sleeps in Tokyo are sung. Not only that, outdoor singing has high requirements for the technology of live radio and the performance ability of the band, and if you are not careful, it is the scene of a car accident.

Choosing to perform in such a place is exaggerated enough, and the difficulty has increased a lot.

When it comes to "THE BEST TEN", IWAHASHI Shinichi thinks of the exaggerated glass door, and he originally thought that he could go and experience it himself. As a result, because of Watanabe Manyumi's idea, he lost this opportunity to enjoy himself.

I can't help it, in order to be able to go through it, I can only continue to work hard and strive for the next chance to be on "THE BEST TEN".

You love to ignore me today, and you can't climb up to me tomorrow (what?)

......

Despite this, in front of every glass door that a new person dreams of leaving, there is a fast-walking and vomiting Taopu Star.

Today, Akina Nakamori came to "THE BEST TEN" to play for her single "TATTOO".

Completely different from DREAMS COME TRUE, which has just debuted and lacks popularity, so it is necessary to pay more attention to the luxurious and impactful stage in order to increase the audience's appreciation.

LIKED BY "THE BEST TEN", AND IT IS A PEACH STAR, THE OFFICE TO WHICH SHE BELONGS OR YANYIN, WHO IS BACKED BY A CONSORTIUM AND HAS NEVER BEEN SHORT OF MONEY, THE THREE ASPECTS ADD UP, AND SHE IS THE MOST LUXURIOUS STAGE TONIGHT.

Before the rehearsal, she looked at the program list, and saw that the eighth place was DREAMS COME TRUE, and she had a feeling of "really amazing~".

PREVIOUSLY, SHE WATCHED DREAMS COME TRUE PERFORM IN THE BAND KINGDOM OF HEAVEN AS A SPECTATOR, AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THE BAND ALSO BEAT BANILA, WHICH SHE HAD SUPPORTED IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Having seen that kind of super strength, it is not surprising that they can appear in "THE BEST TEN".

However, DREAMS COME TRUE was not here, and they were never seen during the rehearsal.

At nine o'clock on Thursday night, the show officially started.

After the opening remarks, the moderator began to announce the week's rankings from 10th place, as is customary.

......

"Next up is the eighth-place ......"

The information on the flip board turned rapidly, and finally stopped.

"It's "So Happy!So Happy!So Happy!" by DREAMS COME TRUE. ”

After the title of the song was announced, Tetsuko Kuroyanagi said, "I like the title of the song very much, and I feel comfortable just reading it like this." Happiness and happiness are three very precious elements. So, let's take a look at the band that combines all three......"

At the same time, on the screen of the studio, the figure of DREAMS COME TRUE appeared on the top floor of the TV station.

"Good evening—"

The trio of the band, who were ready, stood there, led by Miwa-chan, greeting Tetsuko Kuroyanagi and the audience in front of the TV.
