Chapter 589: Shouting Poor, Count Me Off

Inside the Superintendent's Office.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto was in a good mood, but he was ruined by the bad news brought by Uncle Ishida. . .

A few days ago, Kiyoshi Sakamoto sent a script to LesPros, the office where Yui Aragaki works, trying to invite his girlfriend to join "Those Years" and play the role of the heroine.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was originally confident, didn't expect that LesPros would refuse!

This unexpected news made Sakamoto Kiyoshi feel angry, and it was ignited all of a sudden.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's fingers, on the table, struck again and again, slowly and rhythmically.

He originally wanted to invite his girlfriend, Yui Aragaki as the heroine of "Those Years".

However, in the face of Kiyoshi Sakamoto's offer to be the director, LesPros inevitably expressed doubts and was not optimistic about the film's prospects.

Therefore, he refused to let Yui Aragaki take over the movie, and finally directly rejected Kiyoshi Sakamoto's invitation.

LesPros's refusal made Sakamoto Kiyoshi suddenly come up with the idea of digging Yui Aragaki out of LesPros' hands.

Speaking of which, Yui Aragaki in 2010 experienced a hit relying on 2007's "Love in the Sky", a slight decline in popularity in 2008, and a steady rise in 2009, and after entering 2010, she basically gained a firm foothold in the ranks of the top popular actors in the second tier.

In particular, the high ratings of "Code Blue 2", which is being broadcast on Fuji TV, have made the popularity of the heroine Yui Aragaki even more stable.

However, in the small modeling agency of LesPros, there are only two people who can be called first-line, Kyoko Hasegawa and Yui Aragaki!

Moreover, Kyoko Hasegawa, who is over 30 years old, inevitably began to decline in popularity.

In other words, the entire LesPros, currently relying on Yui Aragaki alone, holds up half of the sky of the office.

As Yui Aragaki's boyfriend, Kiyoshi Sakamoto also knows everything about this situation.

Moreover, judging from the development of Aragaki Yui in the past few years, Sakamoto Kiyoshi also understands LesPros' implementation strategy for Aragaki Yui.

To put it bluntly, it is to accept more advertisements and less dramas, and try to concentrate on grabbing some important roles.

It can also be called the "elite route"

This is also the reason why Yui Aragaki only stars in one drama and one movie a year.

This is also a way to do it, who made LesPros a small firm with little energy and few resources...

Concentrate the resources of the whole company and first pick up one of the potential artists, which is also the most common practice of many small brokerage firms.

Aoi Miyazaki's Hirata office, Hideaki Ito's a-team, and Shun Oguri's Tristone office are all examples of firms that have adopted this approach.

LesPros still thinks very much of Yui Shiagaki and holds her as the light of the firm, and the scripts he chooses for her are basically the starring roles.

However, the scarcity of the number of works is also an important reason why Aragaki Yui has never been able to become a big thing.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who sees all this in his eyes, thinks, since you LesPros don't have many resources, then I'll make a movie myself to praise my girlfriend, it's all right?!

Who knows...

Damn LesPros!

Thinking about it like this, Sakamoto Kiyoshi wanted to force Yui Aragaki to come to SMA, and the idea became stronger and stronger!

However, the top priority was to find a replacement for Yui Aragaki.

Since Yui Aragaki can't star, who will give the heroine of "Those Years" to?

This is something Kiyoshi Sakamoto should be considering at the moment.

At this time, Sakamoto Kiyoshi suddenly remembered that Uncle Ishida seemed to have a good news, and he didn't say it...

"By the way, didn't you say there's good news and bad news?" Kiyoshi Sakamoto stopped tapping on the table and asked, "So, what's the good news?"

I saw Uncle Ishida raise the document in his hand and show a bright smile, "Toho... Agreed to our proposal!"

"Really?!" Hearing this, Kiyoshi Sakamoto also excitedly stood up from his office chair.

Seeing Kiyoshi Sakamoto's reaction, the smile on Uncle Ishida's face became even stronger.

"Not only that, TV Asahi has also agreed to join the production of this film as a sponsor!"

In the face of such good news, Sakamoto Kiyoshi couldn't keep calm, clenched his fists and shouted: "YES!"

"Great!"

This is the effect that Kiyoshi Sakamoto is pursuing.

Convince Sony Music first, and then let Sony come forward to convince Toho and Asahi.

Sony Music is worthy of Sony Music, although the main direction of attack is not in film and television, but in terms of influence and connections, it is still second to none in the entire circle!

In just one week, Toho, the head of the four major film companies, and Asahi TV, one of the five major private TV stations, were done, and these two bigwigs in the film and television industry were pulled onto the ship of "those years".

I have to say that Sony's name is still very useful.

"But that's more than good news ... Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was in a good mood, also joked.

"Oh, one is a gift, free. Uncle Ishida also said very cooperatively.

The two looked at each other and laughed in unison.

"Hahaha... ”

The two sat down on the sofa, and as the actual executor of the project, Uncle Ishida began to report to Kiyoshi Sakamoto about the preparatory process of "Those Years".

"Asahi is ready to invest 20 million yuan, plus various publicity methods during the publicity period, to get 10% of the box office revenue of this movie, what do you think?"

"Yes. ”

The production cost of the entire movie is up to 200 million.

invested 20 million and got 10% of the box office revenue, in fact, it is already a very good dividend for TV Asahi.

Compared with Asahi's investment, Kiyoshi Sakamoto cares more about Asahi TV's propaganda methods.

In Sakamoto Kiyoshi's plan, the majority of the cost is not the production cost, but the publicity and distribution cost of the film.

Because, this Japanese version of "Those Years" will be released not only in Japan, but throughout Asia!

This was planned early in the morning by Sakamoto.

The box office results of "Those Years" in the previous life, but in Taiwan, Malaysia, the mainland and other Asian regions, they all occupied the top few box office annual lists!

Even if this life has become an all-Japanese lineup, Kiyoshi Sakamoto still believes that the core content of this film will still resonate with many young people in Asia.

Therefore, in order to make "Those Years" a big hit in Asia, the intensity of publicity must not be thunderous and rainy.

In this way, the cost of publicity and distribution will inevitably be an astonishing figure!

Moreover, the cost of publicity and distribution, as well as the cost of copying the film, are not included in the production fee.

In other words, these expenses have to be paid by Kiyoshi Sakamoto, the main producer!

However, in this regard, Sakamoto Kiyoshi expressed disdain.

"My brother has money, shout poor, count me as losing!"
