The 90s were not only the era of the music scene, but also the era of the most popular producers. The success of Masaohide Sakuma, the producer of GLAY, the producer of Mr. Kid, Takeshi Kobayashi, the producer of SPEED, Hiromasa Ichi, the producer of Naemi Amuro, Tetsuya Komuro, and even the people who later single-handedly created PUFFY and Junjun, the father of Good Morning Musuma, are all witnessing their success.

From 1978 to the present, Oda Tetsuro's name has been tied to BEING, and although tens of millions of songs have been sold during his career, it is almost impossible for him to really take over the production power and control the singer's style. As a top-notch composer, it would be impossible to say that Tetsuya Komuro did not want to be promoted to a producer and create his favorite "work" with the precedent of Tetsuya Komuro's precedent.

This can be seen from the fact that he unearthed Nanase Aikawa and loved her so much. If he hadn't had high hopes for her, Oda Tetsuro wouldn't have taught her music and given her the best.

Hearing Ye Zhao's answer, Oda Tetsuro scratched his hair, "You don't want to be a producer yourself, do you?"

"It would be better to be able to do so. Ye Zhao replied honestly, "Even if it is not a long-term position, but in the year or two since Miss Kawamoto's debut, her music style is best controlled by me." "If the production power is not in his hands, then his plans will not be able to talk about it.

"It's not a small ambition. Tetsuro Oda smiled and turned serious, "But I want to remind you first that for newcomers, the importance of being a producer is undeniable. I know you have some talent in composition, but being a singer-songwriter yourself is different from being a producer for others, Ye Jun, every decision you make may be related to her future, so you must be cautious. ”

Ye Zhao listened carefully to Oda Tetsuro's words, and responded with a solemn face: "I understand, teacher." ”

"I also felt this when I decided to be a producer for Misaki," Tetsuro Oda relaxed, leaning back on the sofa, "Some people think it's quick to hold someone else's future, but in my case, I just feel quite stressed." Speaking of which, he realized that the atmosphere was a little seriously disturbed by himself, and joked: "Anyway, I haven't tried this kind of stressful feeling for many years, and it's pretty good to some extent." ”

"It's good to have pressure?" Nanase Aikawa turned his head to look at him.

Oda Tetsuro looked at her with a smile, "There is pressure to have the motivation to break through yourself, which is essentially the same as what I keep asking you now." If I hadn't spurred you, I'm afraid you'd have gotten carried away. ”

Nanase Aikawa snorted, but this time it was no longer because he was not to be outdone, but because he was a little unreasonable. This was proved later when she returned to the studio to record.

After drinking coffee, Nanase Aikawa took the initiative to ask to enter the recording room again to audition, and Ye Zhao and Oda Tetsuro supervised the studio for her. The main title of the debut song prepared by Tetsuro Oda for Nanase Aikawa is "The Girl Who Doesn't Want to Just Dream", and the composition and arrangement are all handled by Tetsuro Oda. In terms of arrangement, it is different from BEING's keyboard-focused style, which strengthens the bass's presence, so that although the composer is the same person, it does not have the flavor of BEING.

Nanase Aikawa sang for a while, and Tetsuro Oda invited Kazuyo Kawamoto to join, and let two girls of the same age work together on a song, but unfortunately the voices of these two people did not produce chemistry at all, and it was just after a song. While the two of them were still in the recording room, Oda Tetsuro said to Ye Zhao: "Regarding the belonging of Miss Kawamoto, do you want to consider Ai Hui? This company is still very tolerant of new producers, if you are interested, I can introduce it to you." ”

"I'll wait until Miss Kawamoto's demo is recorded. Ye Zhao neither accepted nor refused.

Oda Tetsuro nodded, "It's fine." ”

……

After leaving the recording studio, it wasn't until he got back in the car that Kazuyo Kawamoto said to Ye Zhao: "I didn't expect to see Oda-san, which scared me a lot." ”

"Do you like Oda Mulberry very much?" Ye Zhao asked.

"It's not so much liking or worshiping as Oda-san looks like a god in my eyes. ”

"The evaluation is so high, then why didn't you take the opportunity to talk to Oda Sando in the studio just now?"

Kazuyo Kawamoto shook his head, "I've done my best just to deal with Oda-san's questioning, and if I talk to him again, I'll probably only be able to say those clichés that sound like deliberate flattery." ”

Ye Zhao laughed when he heard this. Then he changed the subject, "Anyway, you get along pretty well with Miss Misaki." ”

"Yes, before leaving, we have exchanged BP numbers with each other, and we are ready to become 'BP friends'. ”

The so-called BP friend, similar to the later MAIL friend, is a friend who uses the message function of the BP machine instead of SMS to contact. Now there is still a long way to go before mobile phones occupy the market,SMS technology is just beginning to take shape,But nothing can stop the love of the masses for text messages,BP machine friend This thing should also be born from time to time。

……

Since I don't plan to sign Kawamoto and BEING, I naturally can't use BEING's music teacher and recording studio, but without a shortage of money, these two things can be solved in minutes.

The office contacted a vocal music class in Kazuyo Kawamoto in Kazumi Town, and he needed to report five times a week, and the course fee was paid in advance by ZYE, and after Kazuyo Kawamoto officially debuted, it was deducted from the share. As for the two days when he didn't have to go to the vocal class to report, Kazuyo Kawamoto had to go to the studio to audition recording.

With Kawamoto Kazudai's qualifications, in fact, Ye Zhao doesn't worry much about it, and the only thing that needs to be "made up" for her is her singing skills. However, her strong voice is not a weakness in itself, but a unique feature, and it is also a lack of breath, if she had changed to another singer to sing out of breath, the audience would have booed her a long time ago, but when it was changed to Kawamoto and Yo, it became a unique charm point.

……

8:55 p.m. on April 8.

"Brother Ye Zhao, has the channel been changed?" urged Nakama Yukie on the other end of the phone.

Sandwiching the mobile phone between his ears and shoulders, while cutting the ham meat, Ye Zhao replied: "Wait a while, I'll change it immediately." ”

"If I hadn't called you, you would have forgotten about it, wouldn't you?"

"Uh...... Doesn't that make me remember? "Spread the sliced ham, the perfectly cut eggs, and the shredded cabbage on top of the bread I bought at the convenience store, and a sandwich cut corners was done.

Between March and April, which is still conceivable, Ye Zhao rarely got a day off on the 8th. Neither on a day trip nor out with friends, the guy hid at home and slept in a circle.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, after fighting with the Sandman for 300 rounds, Ye Zhao finally got rid of the shackles of the bed and crawled out of the bed. I went downstairs to the coffee shop for a light meal, wandered aimlessly in the maze-like streets of Sanxuan Tea House for a while, and watched a play "Caligula" in the small theater.

After watching the performance, back at home, Ye Zhao sat in front of the typewriter for a long time, carefully continuing the work of converting the movie images flowing in his head into words.

At the end of the first course of the screenwriting school, the teacher in charge of him gave him a pretty good evaluation, and with a little self-confidence after being affirmed, Ye Zhao decided to use the movie he was most familiar with to "practice", this movie was "Calling for Love in the Center of the World" directed by Xing Dingxun in 2004.

At this time, Xing Dingxun was still working as an assistant director by Shunji Iwai, and at the premiere of "Love Letter", Ye Zhao also found his name from the cast and crew list of the movie, and it will be a while before he really starts making films independently.

And Ye Zhao's adaptation of "Calling for Love at the Center of the World" has no intention of preparing to make this movie. The success of the movie "Calling for Love in the Center of the World" is not just the success of a movie, before that, the original novel of this movie was a bestseller that sold more than one million copies, and then it exceeded three million copies, and the radio drama of the same name also caused quite a sensational effect, and now, this novel has not appeared, and it is even more impossible for Ye Zhao to write such a novel by himself.

The reason why I chose this movie to practice is that since it is a blockbuster, it must have something outstanding, and secondly, because the movie was shot in 2004, and now it is 1995, some of the situations in it are not the same as now, and the song is different, once there is something "out of time and space" in the movie, it will become very weird, but in this case, if Ye Zhao really wants to get involved in movies in the future, whether it is making Japanese films or movies from other countries, he must face this problem.

Before he could really face the problem, he had to try to come up with a solution.

……

"Brother Ye Zhao?" On the other end of the phone, Nakama Yukie woke him up from his contemplation.

"Oh, I hear you, I'm going to turn on the TV. "Rescued the phone from between the shoulder and the ear, went to the living room, found the remote control, and tuned to the NTV channel.

Today is the day when Ye Zhao's SP drama "Kanedaichi Juvenile Incident Book" was broadcast, but the soundtrack was provided, and there was no actual performance, at most, it was to scroll on the list of production staff, so Ye Zhao didn't have any sense of expectation, but Yukie Nakama, he just briefly mentioned it when she came to the office to play, but she didn't expect it to be remembered by her.

Yukie Nakama, who successfully passed the entrance exam to the Sunrise Women's School, has now moved into the apartment rented by Ogi Production, and has begun systematic training in acting and other aspects. When she first arrived in Tokyo, she seemed to be worried that she had nothing to rely on here, and Yukie Nakama's mother took her daughter to visit ZYE when she sent her daughter to Beijing.
