659. in the first place
Once allowed to enter, the office door was pushed open, and a string of listless footsteps ushered a man with shaggy hair and scruffy clothes inside.
This raunchy and casual appearance was often reprimanded by other producers before he became famous, and when he went to meet other producers, and even openly said "I don't want to work in the same studio as this guy!".
However, after serving as the production team of tube, writing best-selling songs for the band, and gaining recognition in the industry as a composer, this sloppy appearance has become a so-called "artist's personality" that should be tolerated.
Tetsuro Oda is thirty years old Chinese New Year's Eve, the same age as Daiyuki Nagato when he was invited to join BEING ten years ago.
However, the thirty-year-old Nagato Daiyuki is shrewd, strong, and exquisite, and he lives up to the image of an Omi businessman in a popular drama. And the thirty-year-old Oda Tetsuro is no different from the twenty-year-old, as light as ever, and looks strange and unreliable.
When he first decided to make a living from music, Tetsuro Oda first debuted as a singer, but the record did not sell at all. No one cares about singing himself, but he composes music for others and makes a name for himself as a man in black - but only in the industry.
"Oda-kun!"
Nagato Daiko was fortunate to see the person who came, his expression relaxed, and the vitriol he showed in front of Daikoku Moki was swept away, looking like an amiable senior brother.
He looked at Tetsuro Oda's listless face, "Shouldn't you be in the studio again?"
Tetsuro Oda let out a "hmm", rubbed his eyes like a child, and the sour smell of cigarette smoke wafted around his body, as if announcing that he had done something big, and replied, "I only slept two hours a day after successfully challenging it." ”
"What a mess. Nagato shook his head.
Even so, there is no intention of advising him to pay attention to his work and rest.
This is also exactly what Tetsuro Oda wants. Even if the other party is kind to care, for Oda Tetsuro, he is extremely disgusted by others dictating his life.
The reason why he was able to stay in BEING for ten years was largely related to Nagato Daiyuki's tolerance of him - from the time Oda Tetsuro was young and unknown, Nagato Daiyuki had an attitude towards him with anything and nothing.
Not only that, but when he got into trouble because he was too reckless – for example, when he broke a broken bone while running to play a bicycle a few days before the show and had to cancel the show - he would clean up the mess for him without saying anything, like a tolerant brother of his younger brother.
Tetsuro Oda has a vague and childish personality, but he lacks the energy to flow, and he needs to keep a sense of distance from him and give him unhesitating attention.
Also a genius, Takahiro Matsumoto is assertive and has a strong personality, both as an artist and as a businessman.
But Tetsuro Oda is like a child, although he has vigorous creativity, he knows nothing outside of art, and needs to be guided by a businessman named Nagato Daiyuki.
Nagato Daiyuki's proportions are just right, he has a thorough understanding of Oda Tetsuro's personality, and he also has the trust of Oda Tetsuro. He even has the self-confidence to keep Tetsuro Oda tied to BEING for the rest of his life.
"I want to show you this. Nagato Daiyuki handed over a manga.
But Oda Tetsuro's gaze fell on the tape on the table, "Is it a song sample?"
"A manga called 'Cherry Maruko,' ......" Nagato Daiyuki stuffed the comic book into Oda Tetsuro and replied casually, "The newcomer's audition tape that Ikeda brought is not a big deal. ”
"Look at this. He urged.
Tetsuro Oda flipped through it twice, "What kind of manga is this?"
"It's a popular manga serialized on "RIBBON", and I got the news that this manga seems to have plans to be animated. But the specifics are not yet clear. Nagato said.
Tetsuro Oda didn't make a sound and flipped through two pages of the manga.
"If you think this manga is young, you would be very wrong, Oda-kun. ”
Daiyuki Nagato explained to him, "I read this manga when it first became popular, and the daily life set in the 70s was very relatable to me as someone who lived through the 70s. ”
"That kind of human life is very interesting, but children who grow up in this era can't fully appreciate the mystery. In my opinion, if it were to be anime, it would definitely be popular with a wide range of age groups. ”
After Nagato Daiyuki finished explaining, he came up with an idea, "Oda-kun, I want to fight for it and get the right to produce the anime theme song." ”
When he heard that this manga might be animated, Nagato Daiyuki began to plan to win this opportunity in his mind. He is optimistic about this "Cherry Maruko" to such an extent.
Animation companies generally have record companies that work closely together, and when they produce animations, they package the theme song and soundtrack, and most of the theme songs are not taken seriously.
Nagato Daiyuki's BEING doesn't have such a relationship with the animation company, but he is sure that the animation theme song is not valued like the theme song of the TV series, and he needs to have the power to support him behind to get it, so even if he doesn't have that kind of friendship, he doesn't want to miss this great opportunity and decides to give it a try.
And the strategy he is going to adopt is to simply give up on asking about the production of animation, and before the official announcement of the animation information, go directly to the author of the manga - bring a tailor-made tune.
As long as the actor herself comes forward and recommends it to the producer at the planning stage, this opportunity will definitely be successfully obtained.
Kansai businessman Nagato is fortunate to have his own little cleverness.
These twists and turns, to Oda Tetsuro, made him want to doze off in a few words, Nagato Daiyuki didn't bother to speak, just gave him homework," ...... Anyway, please learn about the manga first, and then write a tune. ”
The key words he gives are "be brisk, catchy, and memorable".
Tetsuro Oda agreed, put the manga together, and said, "I'll go back and read the ......," and then turned his attention to the audition tape.
This appearance is almost like a cat that does not give up until its curiosity is satisfied.
Nagato Daiyuki couldn't help him, so he handed over the audition tape. Tetsuro Oda borrowed a tape player from his office. When I heard the singer's singing, the tired face showed an expression of interest.
"A girl who is very good at singing...... "Tetsuro Oda commented.
After thinking about it, "I've never heard the tune, is it her own?"
Nagato Daiyuki remembered that he had not met with Daikoku Moki very happily just now, and said perfunctorily, "The lyrics of the young girl are written in a way that does not know how thick the sky is." ”
Tetsuro Oda smiled at Nagato's comment, "I think it's quite interesting." Nagato-san, when will she come to the company to report?"
Listening to this tone, he seemed to appreciate the Great Black Moji.
Nagato Daiyuki asked him to stop.
