Chapter 576: It's a coincidence

Sakai Izumi's words suddenly remembered and were quietly hidden, as light as a feather blown by the wind, leaving no trace.

Time passed quietly.

After August passed, the heat wave of pestering people finally subsided, and after entering September, the chaotic sky of midsummer like egg whites and egg yolks mixing together will gradually return to that crisp and clear state.

Throughout September, Ye Zhao concentrated most of his work in his Shibuya office, and agreed on the work itinerary after independence with his own side and the staff on Sony's side, starting from October and arranging it to March of the following year.

First of all, of course, about Satomi Natsukawa's debut conference and the five-in-a-row plan for VHS singles, this plan has long been on the agenda and everything is ready, and now it is only the last opportunity.

Five consecutive releases and VHS singles create a topic for debut, and then you have to send people to contact and promote, spend money where you should spend money, and pick up and drop off people where you should pick up people's feelings, in comparison, recording a song and making an MV is really the simplest and purest thing.

But these days, how can anyone deliberately look for things from the corners? If you don't invest in it and don't publicize it, it will be difficult for you to display whatever skills you have.

On Satomi Natsukawa's side, everyone is carefully walking every step for her debut, and on the other side, the singers Ye Zhao brought back from Okinawa, their debut road has finally seen the light of hope.

In August, after all preparations, Kiroro's first batch of 10,000 copies of the single "Long Room" was widely distributed with the help of Sony.

When he signed a contract with them, he said that he was only responsible for helping them release the single nationwide, and only if the single score was qualified, he would push them to make their mainstream debut.

But it sounds harsh and scary, since they have signed a contract with them, how can they let the two of them go to fate, whether to help find an opportunity or to help find a chance.

The massive release of 10,000 singles is like throwing a pebble into the ocean, and the sales feedback in the first few weeks is really not worth mentioning.

The two of Kiroro's two people are enthusiastic about the sales of their singles every week, but every time they come to the office with trepidation, they can't help but feel a sense of frustration when they see the numbers.

In the third week, while waiting for the sales order, Ayano Kaneshiro put her cheeks on her cheeks, lying listlessly on the table, and said to herself, "Ah...... If you go on like this, you'll have to go back to your hometown soon......"

Tamaki Chiharu showed a wry smile.

Kaneshiro Ayano didn't notice her companion's reaction, and muttered to herself, "Didn't you say that a total of 10,000 copies were printed, but now less than 2,000 copies have been sold......"

Speaking of this, she suddenly said "Ah!", and looked at Tamaki Chiharu with a serious face, "Chi-chan, if the record store returns the goods later, will the office ask us to pay out of our own pockets......"

The wry smile on Tamaki Chiharu's face became even more obvious, "Xiao Aya, you really always think about strange things." ”

At this time, the door of the room was opened, and what appeared in front of the two of them was not the staff who delivered them sales orders every week, but Takahashi Ryuya beside Ye Zhao.

"Takahashi-sanβ€”" Kaneshiro Ayano seemed to see the backbone of the main heart and told him what she had just feared. After finishing speaking, he also said several "what to do" one after another.

This unreliable look, if you don't know that her nature is so "stupid", she can't do anything else except music, most of you will think that she is not a little annoying.

However, when they were first signed, Takahashi Ryu also helped them run errands, and he somewhat understood a little bit of Kaneshiro Ayano's stupidity, and explained good-naturedly: "Of course not." Moreover, the royalties are generated at the time the records are put into print, not when they are sold, so the two will receive the lyrics and music royalties of the 10,000 records first. ”

"Really?!" Ayano Kaneshiro's eyes lit up, and then she whispered, "Royalties or something...... If I really lose money to the company, it doesn't matter if I don't want my share. ”

This is a place that is "innocent" at best and "......" at worst, so that Takahashi Ryu, who has never been very good at talking and laughing, can't help laughing.

was so pestered by her that she finally had the opportunity to get down to business: "Please rest assured, not only will it not be returned this time, but maybe there will be a chance to print it later." ”

Both of them showed some doubts because of his words.

"That's right, the sales of the two new singles this week are 985 copies, almost breaking 1,000 copies, which is about 200 copies higher than the previous two weeks, so let me say 'congratulations'. "Takahashi Ryu is also serious.

"Then there's another thing," he announced, "and we've been trying to get the title song of the single to an advertiser for audition, and we've been negotiating about it for the time being, and now it's finally been decided that it will be released as a chocolate commercial song from next month." ”

"Great!" Finally endured until Takahashi Ryuya finished speaking, Kaneshiro Ayano raised her arms and cheered, turned around and hugged Tamaki Chiharu, "Xiaoqian, you don't have to go back to your hometown now, right?!"

Chiharu Tamaki smiled and touched her head, "I think, it depends on the effect of the advertisement after it is broadcast." ”

In the end, he is more mature and rational than his partner, Tamaki Chiharu let go of Kaneshiro Ayano, and solemnly asked Takahashi Ryuya to convey his gratitude to Ye Zhao on his behalf.

During the underground period in Okinawa and the lack of attention for the first two weeks, she clearly felt the importance of the company. Although Takahashi Ryuya has only announced this matter now, from sending the song to audition everywhere, to negotiating with advertisers, finalizing the plan, and now telling them about it, I don't know how many troubles there are in between.

Since you dream of entering the mainstream, you must always be grateful to the company.

was reminded by her, Kaneshiro Ayano also expressed her gratitude, a little dull and a little stupid, and not really stupid, these things naturally understand.

Ten minutes later, Ye Zhao received Kiroro's thanks from Takahashi Ryuya, and he gladly accepted it. In addition, I also knew a bunch of strange words from Ayano Kaneshiro.

So, on this somewhat boring morning, Ayano Kaneshiro inadvertently gave him a dose of vitality boosting jokes, which made him laugh heartily.

"How can you do it without such confidence? Ye Zhao said while laughing, "I'm still waiting to rely on them to eat." ”

Takahashi Ryu also laughed with him for a while, and then reported: "By the way, there is something I want to tell you." When I was chatting with Takeda-san before, I heard him say that there is a resort with the same name as Kiroro in Hokkaido, isn't it a coincidence? β€œ

"Really?" Ye Zhao was a little interested. I want to talk about "Dongying Entertainer" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
