Chapter 635: The Theme Song of the Movie
Although NHK has deliberately changed the red and white hosts, it is already an open secret.
However, this is a huge matter after all, and it is impossible to settle the dust immediately.
Besides, even if THE SUN can follow the example of Arashi of Denis in his previous life, and compete for the red and white host as a group, it doesn't mean that NHK must choose the three of them.
Even though they have become the number one band in Asia...
If THE SUN wants to win this high-profile host, it not only needs invisible soft power such as popularity, popularity, influence, etc., but more importantly, it needs to carry out public relations for people from all sides!
And PR, it takes time.
PR, in simple terms, is the exchange of interests.
In the entertainment industry, everything is right and wrong, nothing more than the word "interests", which can be summarized.
Whether it is the protagonist of a movie or TV series, the winner of an award, or the spokesperson of an advertisement, as long as you pay a certain price, you can basically win it.
The same goes for the host of the Red and White Song Club.
If THE SUN wants to become a red and white host, it depends on how much Sony Music behind THE SUN can pay for public relations.
Just like the Hollywood Oscars, before the awards, there are countless examples of major film companies finally getting the little golden man through the power of public relations.
Hollywood's most famous public relations experts, the Weinstein brothers, can be described as a good player.
In order to promote "The Happiness Line Behind the Clouds", Weinstein Pictures even directly hired the deputy manager of Ao Guanhai's campaign team to help, which can be described as a series of means.
The eight major Hollywood companies spend on public relations every year, which is enough to make a blockbuster that burns money...
As you can imagine, the importance of public relations.
However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's top priority is not how to go to public relations, but to complete the post-production of "Those Years" as soon as possible and put his film debut on the big screen.
After all, he is not a wage earner, and it is OK to send his subordinates to do public relations.
As for the post-production of the film, it can't be faked.
Therefore, after asking Hikaru Kitahara to focus on NHK's next move, Kiyoshi Sakamoto hurriedly threw himself into the post-production of the film.

Pre-preparation, mid-shooting, and post-production are the processes that are followed to complete a film.
The first two steps are done, but only 2/3 of the entire film production is completed.
It can be said that the remaining 1/3 is the most important step.
The post-production of a film is basically a process of initial cutting, formal editing, composition and selection, special effects recording, and dubbing synthesis.
The first cut is also known as the "rough cut".
In the initial cutting stage, the director will stitch together the captured footage in the order of the script and edit it into a version with no visual effects, no narration and no music.
After the initial cut is approved by the director and screenwriter, you can enter the stage of formal editing, which is called "fine editing"
Finishing part, first of all, to be dissatisfied with the initial cut, to make modifications, and then the picture that needs to be changed,
Although it was the first time to go into a small black room to cut a film, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was not alone.
In order to better edit, Kiyoshi Sakamoto also specially found the editor of classic films such as "Flowers and Alice" and "Love Letter", Hiroki Fujii, who worked with the famous film director Shunji Iwai.
While discussing how to edit with this experienced old bird, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is also growing rapidly through his strong learning ability.
After nearly a month of "rough cutting" and "fine cutting", and after nearly a month of argumentative struggle, Kiyoshi Sakamoto finally finished editing the final version of "Those Years" in early June!
Fortunately, this is a campus youth film with no special effects, and in the fine editing stage, it did not take too much time for Sakamoto Kiyoshi.
Soon, the late progress of "Those Years" has passed the halfway point.
Next, there is the soundtrack of the movie and the composition and selection of the theme song.
The theme song of the movie, in particular, is very important.
If chosen correctly, the theme song and the movie will form a virtuous circle that promotes each other.
Take the popular TV series "ROOKIES" that year, the theme song "ăă»ă", which is very in line with the plot, not only made the ratings of "ROOKIES" soar, but also made itself sell millions of copies!
If it weren't for Kiyoshi Sakamoto's personal graduation comedy "ăăăăźăă", it was too rebellious in sales and too influential, and "ăă»ă" might still have a chance to win the single of the year...
Therefore, for the sake of the box office of the movie, the choice of the theme song of the movie should also be very cautious.
Generally speaking, the theme song and soundtrack of a movie can be composed or selected.
The difference between the two is: if you choose to choose songs from the music library, in terms of cost, it will be more economical, and it is also very suitable for some low-cost movies.
However, the biggest drawback is that it is possible that other movies will use this music as well...
That's very embarrassing...
After all, hitting music is almost the same as hitting shirts, who is ugly and who is embarrassed.
If you choose to recompose, the film will have a unique music, and the music can form a perfect combination with the picture in the movie, like the notes on the score, so fascinating.
It's just that, in this way, the cost of creating a movie is relatively expensive.
However, for Kiyoshi Sakamoto, not to mention the sufficiency of filming funds, it is completely possible to ignore this small amount of money.
The importance he attached to this film alone was enough to make him choose the path of composition...
Moreover, his multi-talented supervisor has the ability to compose film music in his own right!
Therefore, already in this movie, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who wears many hats, is not short of another music director...
The theme song, soundtrack, etc., he decided to go out himself!
Speaking of the movie theme song of "Those Years", in fact, he has been ready for a long time.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who has watched the original version of "Those Years", likes "Those Years" sung by Prince Qingquan Xiaohu very much.
I also think that song is very suitable for this movie.
Therefore, he did not recreate the meaning of a new theme song, but directly chose the Japanese cover version of "Those Years", "ăăźé ~ăžăłăžăłăăȘăă„ăȘăăŒ", as the theme song of the movie!
This song, which was only covered by GReeeeN's sister group hiteeen in 2015, authentically interprets the lyrics and tunes of "Those Years" in the Japanese version, which is very suitable for use as the theme song of the Japanese version of "Those Years"!
Moreover, he also thought that this theme song would be sung by THE SUN, who has not released a Japanese single for a long time.
After the movie is released, THE SUN can also release this single as a new song to meet fans!
In this way, it can not only solve the situation that THE SUN has not released a new record for a long time, but also use THE SUN's popularity to attract their fans to the theater to watch this movie.
It can be said that killing two birds with one stone and killing two birds with one stone!
