Chapter 649: No decision yet
Previously, when he came to Ken Hirai from Defstar, no one thought that this was actually a "test of the waters" for him, and at that time, everyone was surprised at most that his style could be so varied.
However, after Mai Kuraki's debut, I think back to a series of actions after his independence, and I feel that everything is traceable.
As early as when he opened his own solo music group, the first guest he invited was the top Japanese RNB figure Toshinobu Kubota, has he had the idea of changing since then?
Later, he held an audition meeting and selected Mai Kuraki from among many applicants.
After Ken Hirai successfully became popular from an unknown little person, when the public was tired of the current popularity of the music scene, he lost no time in offering them such a fresh taste.
The public couldn't guess what was going on in his mind, but he seemed to know what the public was thinking.
However, it is not a bad thing for the public to be known. Not only is it not a bad thing, but there is also a kind of comfort after hitting the red heart.
At first, the public would go to the on-demand because they liked these two songs, but as the momentum slowly fermented, the act of on-demand added a little alternative meaning.
People who go to the on-demand of these two songs no longer want to watch them repeatedly just because they like these two songs, but by supporting Mai Kuraki, they convey their demands to the producers of the record industry:
The public is not a fool who will only pay obediently under the manipulation of record companies, they are tired of the status quo.
Once ordinary actions are given a different meaning, things gradually become unmanageable.
Even though the time after the release of the single became longer, the billboards arranged at the beginning were played one by one, but because of the spontaneous behavior of the public, Mai Kuraki became more and more popular, and the discussion among the people became more and more widespread.
On this day, Kanda finished her dance lesson, and after making a report to the agent who had accompanied her to the class, she fastened her coat and came to Shibuya alone.
The weather turned cooler at the end of October, and today it is cold again, and people are hurrying in the streets. She walks into the record store, browses around, and when she sees a record that interests her, she will also try it out or take down the next one.
This week, the record store's main single is Ye Zhao's new single "アゲハ Butterfly", and the showcase is not surprisingly placed in a conspicuous position in the store.
November was a prolific month for Ye Zhao, the first week of the month was the debut of Mai Kuraki, who had been brewing for a long time, and the last week of the month was the release of his new single, which had been delayed for almost a year.
The new single of the top singer after a long absence, is a thing that has its own topicality and has attracted much attention. Even if the weather is bad today, this is not the peak time, and there is still a steady stream of customers who come to this showcase to pick up records.
Kanda Laimiko watched from the side, and sincerely felt the strong selling spirit of his boss. Even if you don't release a film for a year, as long as there is any action, you will immediately get a warm response.
The single "アゲハ Butterfly" went on sale this Tuesday, but the publicity has already begun, and she has already heard it. Her vocabulary is not so rich, and the first thing that comes to mind is just a sentence of "amazing!".
She reached out and took down a piece of "アゲハ Butterfly" and put it in the shopping basket.
She has a wealthy family, and her life in Tokyo is taken care of by a company, and she has always had a lot of money, and she likes music and singing, so she will not hesitate to buy any record she likes.
Girls of the same age also have a lot of overlapping tastes. Real clothes, who live under the same roof with her, often borrow her records to listen to.
Speaking of real clothes......
Kanda Ramiko's eyes fell on another display case not far away, and on the most conspicuous side, there was Mai Kuraki's debut single, as well as a promotional poster handwritten by the clerk.
Young and fashionable girls walked in together, and some of them laughed and took down a picture of the office worker uncle with a briefcase under his arm, as if he had entered the store specifically for this single, went straight to the display case to take off the one, and then hurried to the cash register.
When I went to school recently, the name "Mai Kuraki" was frequently mentioned among my classmates.
The one who used to go to music class with her, escaped practice and sneaked out to play together, was scolded by the agent and secretly grimaced at each other, but after performing poorly in the studio and being criticized by Ye Zhao, Zhenyi, who quietly cried behind her back, her familiar good friend, seemed to have become a big star overnight.
Living under the same roof, and being selected in the same selection meeting, Kanda Laimiko watched from the closest distance how Mayi Aono became Mai Kuraki, how she debuted under the pressure of overwhelming publicity, and how she became popular.
She was really envious in her heart, and she also looked forward to the day when she belonged to her would come soon.
Not only in school, but also friends who used to have a good relationship, knowing that she and this Mai Kuraki came out of the same audition, and also asked her about Mai Kuraki.
"I told people at school that my good friend and Mai Kuraki had participated in the same audition meeting and had been trainees together, and everyone was surprised. ”
On the phone, a friend who was still in Kyoto told her about it and cared about her, "When will Lai Weizi make her debut?" and joked: "I also want to be a good friend of a big star." ”
Kanda Laimiko smiled: "There is no decision yet!"
"However, Mai sauce is so popular, Lai Weizi and she are both disciples of Ye Zhaosang, and they can definitely become popular!" said the friend in a firm tone.
Such a tone also infected Kanda Laimiko, and she replied with a big grin: "If only this were the case!" The small loss in her heart disappeared again, and her fighting spirit was rekindled.
She is truly envious of the debut of real clothes, and she is also happy for her success in her heart.
It is precisely because she is open-hearted, and Aono Maki is also kind-hearted, so she participates in training together, gets along day and night, but opens up the gap between the two girls of the same age, in order to maintain the same friendship.
Ye Zhao is not a confidant uncle, if their relationship deteriorates, he will only be the one who will transfer the two of them to the dormitory, and will not be responsible for any psychological counseling.
However, the fact that they were able to maintain their friendship made him feel impressed by the hearts of these two girls in his heart.
After the release of "アゲハ Butterfly", for him, this year, the task in his personal name was successfully handed in. Of course, the week after the release of the single, it won the first place on the list without any surprise, and also gave this test paper a good score.
Although the outside world is boiling, including about Mai Kuraki and his new single, for him, what is more important at the moment is actually focused on the various socials at the end of the year.
Start anew and work hard in the end. 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~
