Chapter 681: One Man, One Name
"Oh?!, what's it?"
With a curious expression on Akimoto's face, Kiyoshi Sakamoto finally explained the purpose of his trip.
"That's the way it is ... ”
When Yasushi Akimoto heard Kiyoshi Sakamoto say that Sony was very interested in the idol girl group and was about to make a new idol girl group, the soft expression on his face obviously changed.
Especially when he heard that Kiyoshi Sakamoto would be the person in charge of this new idol girl group project, as well as the chief producer, his heart felt like a nuclear bomb had been dropped...
Sony, a behemoth in the entertainment industry, wants to step in and enter the idol girl group market.
This is obviously very bad news for Yasu Akimoto, who aims to dominate the Japanese female idol world.
However, for Akimoto Yasu, who has long been familiar with this industry, he naturally knows that AKB's popularity has made many forces want to step in sideways and try to carve up more benefits from AKB.
An example of this is the major offices such as Kyoraku, Ota, Ogi, and Horipro, which have divided up all of the potential members of the AKB.
I thought that Sony also wanted to do this, but I didn't expect that Sakamoto Kiyoshi brought him such amazing news.
Sony is not unfamiliar with the huge benefits that AKB can create, but sees the development prospects of idol girl groups and wants to make a brand new girl group?!
It was a bold decision.
Especially Sony, who once planted a big heel in AKB, was able to step into this field again, and Yasu Akimoto also had to give a thumbs up for Sony's courage.
However, Sony's decision did not surprise Yasushi Akimoto.
On the contrary, the news that Kiyoshi Sakamoto is about to become the chief producer of the girl group shocked him even more.
In the past two years, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's various methods of operating SMA have moved the entire entertainment industry.
This is a very good operational genius and a formidable opponent to be reckoned with!
However, he is not a hairy boy who can't hold his breath, but Yasu Akimoto, who has been immersed in this industry for many years.
I saw that he tried his best to calm the surprise in his heart, and replied in a flat tone: "Oh, I see." ”
"So, why did you invite me here today?"
"Deal!" Sakamoto Kiyoshi raised his index finger, his eyes were like a torch, and his tone was a little unquestionable, "I want to make a deal with you, Akimoto-san, and AKS." ”
"Deal?"
"That's right, I hope AKS will join the project and help us refine it. ”
Kiyoshi Sakamoto's meaning is very clear, that is, he likes AKS's experience in running an idol girl group and wants to pull AKS into the chariot.
Yasu Akimoto also understands that with the experience of AKS, coupled with Sony's resources and connections, the popularity of this girl group will only be simpler.
It seems that two years of experience have made this young man more comfortable with the rules of this circle. Akimoto Yasu was also silently in his heart, and shouted hello to Sakamoto Kiyoshi.
However, Sakamoto Kiyoshi's words have not yet been finished.
"In addition, I also hope to borrow someone from Akimoto-san, and there is also a name. ”
He paused before continuing: "I want Masaki to come back and serve as the executive producer of this idol group!"
“。。。 Hearing this request, Yasu Akimoto fell into a rare silence.
Masaki Chiba, as the drummer of Japan's No. 1 band THE SUN, is clearly much more low-key compared to the other two members.
However, this does not mean that his status in the entertainment industry is very low.
In addition to meeting the audience in TV Asahi's prime-time variety show every week, Masaki Chiba's main work in the past two years has been to contribute great energy to the rise of AKB as a member of AKB's operations.
Since 2005, Chiba Masaki has been by Yasushi Akimoto's side, learning lyrics and tirelessly learning how to make a girl group.
And Yasuya Akimoto also regarded him as his own student, and entrusted him with a lot of affairs, and even promoted him to the operation of AKB, and handed over some C/song lyrics to Chiba Masaki.
It is conceivable that he appreciates Masaki Chiba.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto suddenly asked Masaki Chiba to return to Sony, and Yasuya Akimoto was also a little embarrassed.
Once Masaki Chiba is gone, AKB won't get into trouble, but his workload will increase and he will have one less effective helper.
This is exactly why Yasu Akimoto hesitated.
Unconsciously, the movements of Yasusu Akimoto's hands slowed down.
He did not answer Kiyoshi Sakamoto.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto did not continue to force Yasusu Akimoto to express his position on this issue, but changed the topic, "Also, I think that if this girl group can have something to do with AKB, it should attract the public's attention... ”
"So, I want to give this girl group the title of "AKB Formula Rival", what do you think?"
is also a genius, Yasu Akimoto has never doubted Kiyoshi Sakamoto's ability and vision.
This proposal once again validated his idea.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto's thoughts coincide with his thoughts!
He once thought that if AKB had a strong opponent, would it make the members of AKB more energetic and face everything?
Will it make AKB grow
It is said that competition makes people progress, and the spurring effect of an opponent is sometimes more effective than encouragement.
Just imagine, without Messi, a strong opponent, would Ronaldo become a better player?
Will you continue to persevere and catch up when the Golden Globe Awards are three years behind?
Perhaps, without Messi, Ronaldo will be satisfied with the status quo, thus losing the motivation to continue to rise, and finally being surpassed by the new generation and becoming another footnote on the list of Mr. Golden Balls.
。。。
This dinner, the two of them ate for two hours.
From the afterglow of the sunset, it still shines on the high-rise buildings, and eats until nightfall.
Still, Kiyoshi Sakamoto got the result he wanted.
In Akimoto's view, once the girl group Sony is born, it will be even narrower to the girl group market currently controlled by AKB.
Even in the near future, it will have an immeasurable impact on AKB's supremacy of the girl group.
However, this girl group, even if it doesn't have to rub the traffic of AKB, with the powerful power of Sony and the control of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, an operational genius, it is only a matter of time before this girl group becomes popular.
In this way, selling a good job to Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Sony behind him is good for him and AKB.
What's more, once Sony's "AKB formula rival" is launched, it will also play a role in promoting AKB's national influence.
So, after careful consideration, Yasuya Akimoto finally agreed to Kiyoshi Sakamoto's deal.
Under the cover of night, Sakamoto Kiyome sent Akimoto Yasushi to sit in a gray Mercedes-Benz, the car engine roared, slowly drove away, and the corners of his mouth were slightly drawn a perfect arc.
