Chapter 325: The Consciousness of Abolishing the Name

"Anyway, you've been recording in the studio lately, right?"

The two of them were lying on the bed, chatting with each other. Ye Zhao remembered what she had said before, and the office arranged for her to make her record debut, so she asked casually.

"Yes. ”

"How does it feel to be a singer?" Although he asked, as someone who had sung with her at karaoke many times, Ye Zhao still knew the singing level of Yukie Nakama.

In short, if she were to work hard as a singer, it would definitely be extremely difficult and her future would be bleak......

For her singing skills, Yuki Nakama naturally knows very well, so what she cares about is something else, "The sound I heard in the monitor headphones is completely different from the usual sound. ”

"This one is. ”

"Other than that...... Sound engineer Sang is really subtle when he speaks. Nakama Yukie said.

"Where's that?"

"After the first recording, the recording engineer said, 'It's not bad, please do it again,' and he sang it again. At first, I didn't understand why I had to do it again when I was "not bad"? It wasn't until I participated in two recordings that I realized that the "not bad" I heard in the studio actually meant "no." ”

"This is true," Ye Zhao said with a smile, "It's rare for Sang to say 'no' directly." In most cases, the euphemism is used to say "do it again".

Therefore, if you can make the recording engineer say "no" directly, you either have a lot of relationship with the recording engineer to the extent that you don't have to be polite, or it's really so rotten that people can't bear it......

"However, speaking of this debut song, it was Kubo-san, Komuro-san's trusted right-hand man, who helped make it, right?" Ye Zhao asked.

"Yes. Yukie Nakama replied, "So, when you faced off with Hamada-san on a single before, 'Wouldn't that be a hostile camp?' ”

Hearing her words, Ye Zhao laughed, "In this way, there is indeed a little bit of it. However, there is no way around this kind of thing. ”

It is up to the firm to decide who will be the producer and who will sing the songs. As a newcomer, all you can do is obey and accept.

What's more, with the current energy of the Komuro family, it can be used to complete the singer's debut through him, which is also a signal that Yukie Nakama's office values her very much.

The most important thing is that without the invitation from the office, even if the big names on the other side such as her predecessor Kudo Shizuka and the firm are on the opposite side, it is absolutely impossible for him to do such a thing as "voluntary submission" and send the song over.

"I wasn't directly involved in the production, but did you see Komuro-san during the recording?"

Yukie Nakama said "um", "When I first entered the studio to record, I happened to meet Komuro-san to the recording studio and met him. Originally, I thought that a producer as powerful as Komuro-san would be very serious and the shelves would be very large, but the unexpected attitude was very kind. ”

After thinking about it, he added, "However, when I first met you, your attitude was more kind." ”

"Because I was just a dying singer at the time. Ye Zhao smiled.

But his attitude hasn't changed at all...... And, in my opinion, I met a very powerful star at that time. Yukie Nakama hugged his arm, "So I think it's unbelievable that you have a relationship with someone like you." ”

"However," Ye Zhao deliberately diverted the topic, "Kubo-san is your producer, and you will participate in Komuro-san's music program in the future, you are now a member of the Komuro family, right?"

"In this way," Ye Zhao said with a smile, "you will become an 'enemy army'." ”

"Huh?"

"So," Ye Zhao turned over and pressed her, "now it's time to 'suppress the enemy army'......"

……

The effect brought by MS's special stage is powerful, after the statistics of the weekly chart of the new week, Puffy's single, which had already fallen in momentum, once again returned to the third place on the weekly chart with the program effect of just three days, and the sales volume also doubled from more than 90,000 copies last week, and sold almost 180,000 copies in one go.

As for the first and second places, they are naturally still occupied by Ye Zhao, after winning this week's weekly championship, he has won the weekly chart championship for three consecutive weeks, achieving the best single result since his debut.

It is worth mentioning that in this week, although the top of the list is still "Osaka Lover/永にともに", the gap between it and the second place "Kiseki" has been narrowed to about 8,000 copies.

In the karaoke list to be counted later, this "Kiseki" continues to occupy the champion position, and "Osaka Lover", which has suppressed "Kiseki" for three weeks on the singles chart, can only be obediently pressed on the karaoke chart, and cannot turn over.

Although his own office will also receive the fax of the ranking on time on this day, Ye Zhao is looking at this list in being.

He came to the company on purpose, not to confirm his performance on the weekly charts, but to tell Nagato Daiyuki about his plan to form a limited band with the three of them.

As a man of action, after verbally agreeing with the other three in the recording studio, Ye Zhao naturally wanted to put the resolution of this matter on the agenda as soon as possible, and find a way to obtain the consent of the boss.

There was a precedent for a limited group with Masaharu Fukuyama before, but this time it was mentioned that he was going to form a limited band, and Nagato Daiyuki was not too surprised, but not only that, but it also had a bit of a "coming again?".

At Ye Zhao's current level, he is definitely one of the most profitable people in the record company, with good sales, and his status will naturally rise with the tide, so everything he mentioned, Nagato Daiyuki has to think about it more seriously.

However, since there was a precedent before, this time, Nagato Daiyuki didn't plan to card him in this matter, and after asking in detail about the details of this limited band, he nodded and agreed.

Agree to agree, but also warn: "When it comes to three different record labels, it can get a lot of trouble. ”

Ye Zhao nodded, "President Nagato is right. ”…… He actually didn't have a bottom in his heart.

Everything went smoothly on his side, as for Okuda Minsheng and Kuramochi Yoichi's side, the two belong to the same record label, and the brokerage contract is also placed in Sony's own entertainment studio, after deciding to form a limited band, the two of them went directly to the president of their own record label together, and told them about the idea.

It's not the first time that Okuda Minsheng has formed a limited band across companies, and the company has always been more tolerant of him as a musician, so in the end, he nodded and chose to let go.

It was Yamazaki Masaki's side that was in trouble.

Universal Music had no interest in such a limited band, let alone the fact that the singers of three different labels would work together, and then they would have to discuss various aspects such as promotion and distribution.

So after listening to Yamazaki Masaki's request, although it was a collaboration with best-selling singers and musicians, the top management of his label finally chose to refuse.

"I'm really sorry, I can't seem to do it over there......" Yamazaki said at the four-person party that followed.

"It's a shame. "But regret is regret, since the global side refused to nod, they had to turn the originally conceived foursome into a threesome.

"If we have the opportunity in the future, we will work together again. Ye Zhao said.

"But this time, I'll be on the side for the time being. Yamazaki's tone was relaxed.

This kind of private interaction between musicians, and reaching a willingness to cooperate, and finally going to negotiate with the record company, since the participants come together because of like-minded interests, although it is best to be able to make the trip, but even if it does not work, there is nothing to be disappointed.

Yamazaki Shoyoshi couldn't join, and in terms of teaming, it became a trio like Ye Zhao, Okuda Minsheng and Kuramochi Yoichi.

After reporting the variables on Yamazaki Masayoshi's side to their respective record companies, the record companies on both sides sent representatives to negotiate the production, distribution, and promotion of the subsequent record, and when one side backed down a little, the other side made a little compensation accordingly.

While the record company negotiated for them, the three of them got together for something else, which was to negotiate a suitable band name and then decide on the repertoire of the single.

Since it's going to release a single, of course, you have to match the basic configuration seriously.

"My name is Okuda, Kuramochi-kun is Kuramochi, and Ha-kun is Kanou, so why don't you just take their initials and form OKK, or kok, how about a combination like KKO?" Okuda's idea was simple and crude.

Kuramochi Yoichi said, "I'm good, Okuda-kun, and Ye-kun are all guitarists, and the guitar doesn't look like a weapon when it's in your hand, so it's better to call it 'Three Samurai' or something like that." ”

"Guitar Samurai...... But we're just ronin. Aotian Minsheng complained, and then asked Ye Zhao, "What about Ye Jun, have you thought of any good names?"

"Well...... Ye Zhao showed a smile that belonged to the name, "My thoughts are similar to Okuda-san." ”

"Almost? Do you want to use the abbreviation of your name?" Okuda Minsheng, who won a vote, was a little proud.

"That's not it," Ye Zhao shook his head slightly, "I think it's better to write the names of the three together, and 'Okuda Minsheng / Kuramochi Yoichi / Ye Zhao' will be published in such a name......"

Before he finished speaking, he had already received "merciless contempt for the name and abolition" from the other two.

"Please don't say anything like what I think," Okuda said disgustedly, "I didn't think about it at all, did I?"

Cangzhi Yoichi was more subtle, "Hmm...... It's a little subtle. ”

"I'm really not good at names...... otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to think of a decent combination name when I cooperated with Masaharu Fukuyama, and in the end I could only use that kind of clear way of writing.

His proposal was crossed, Ye Zhao simply gave up and threw the question directly to the two of them, "In that case, it's better for the two of you to think of the name, and I'll be responsible for voting, how about it?"

"I came up with the name 'Three Samurai', and I didn't have any other suitable ideas. Kuramochi Yoichi was the first to say.

Okuda Minsheng still wants to make a fuss about the letters of the name, "If you even count the name, I'm Tamio, Kuramochi-kun is youichi, and Ha-kun is Akira......" He muttered a few times and combined it a few times, and he had an idea, "How about calling it 'okay'?"

β€œokayοΌŸβ€

"Well, I used my okuda's o, Kuramochi-kun and Ha-kun's K, Ha-kun's A, and finally Kuramochi-kun's Y. ”

"Hmm...... I kind of like the name. Ye Zhao thought for a while, "There is a very casual feeling. Moreover, the formation of the three of them was formed in a very random situation.

"Really?" Okuda Minsheng curled the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Also, okay is a word that even children can read, and some people may not be able to understand how to pronounce the words of the three samurai. As a band name, it's better to be a little easier to pronounce. Ye Zhao expressed his opinion.

In the case of two votes for one, Kuramochi Yoichi did not insist at all, but immediately nodded in agreement, "Indeed, okay is more catchy, and the names of the three people are also included." ”

After deciding on the name of the band, the trio began to discuss the tracks that would be included in the single.

Regarding this point, the person who took the lead in expressing his position was replaced by Ye Zhao, "It's a rare team, and both of them are great musicians, if they just publish "Born in Heaven", it would be too wasteful and too rude." ”

"I don't think so. Kuramochi smiled and said, "I just need to get the position of harmonica accompaniment." ”

Okuda Minsheng was a little moved, "Since it's a rare team, you might as well do something." ”

"In that case," Ye Zhao proposed, "Why don't Okuda-san and Kuramochi-san each come up with a song and release a triple-A single?"

"Triple A single?" Okuda shook his head, "That's not going to work." Double A is already the limit, and if you have three A, you might as well release an album directly. ”

Of course, it's impossible to release an album. Whether it is Okuda Minsheng or Ye Zhao or Kuramochi Yoichi, they all have their own work to do, and this limited band is completely busy and sneaking together to play tickets, and it is impossible to determine a concept, and then carefully produce an album for release.

"Is a regular album a ......" Kuramochi Yoichi actually thought about it very seriously, and then asked: "In that case, do you want to try to make a mini album?"

"Mini-albums?"

In this way, the problems on both sides can be solved. Kuramochi said. 2k reading web
