"Bye-bye!"

"Bye!"

Location: Outside a five-star hotel in Ginza, Tokyo

Characters: Kiyoshi Sakamoto, with his friends

At the door of the hotel, after Sakamoto Kiyoshi said goodbye to Tomohisa Yamashita, Shin Ogawa and others, he and Kobashi, Nengnian, two Lori, and a Shota, Sakamoto Feng, took Uncle Ishida's nanny car together and went home.

Kobashi is preparing to return to Sakamoto's house with Kiyoshi Sakamoto, while Noenian is on the way.

However, Xiao Fengfeng insisted on getting in the car and going back together.

There's a story here.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto has known Kohashi since 2002 and has visited Kohashi in Hokkaido every year over the years.

And every time Kiyoshi Sakamoto visits Kobashi in Hokkaido, he lives at Hashimoto's house, and when Kobashi comes to Tokyo to play, he basically lives in Sakamoto's house.

Every time Kobashi goes to Beijing, Kiyoshi Sakamoto will take her around to play and eat delicious food.

This made Sakamoto Kiyoshi's younger brother,Xiao Fengfeng, who has always monopolized his Ni-chan's favor.,Began to be jealous.。。。

He began to fear that his brother would be robbed by the young lady who was one year older than him.

He felt that he had to start acting and do something to keep his brother from being snatched away by the young lady from Hokkaido.

Therefore, he seized every opportunity and did not let Sakamoto Kiyoshi and Kobashi have too many contact opportunities.

However, he was just playing a little trick.

He didn't go back with his parents, but climbed into Kiyoshi Sakamoto's nanny car, just to monitor Xiaoqiao, did he take the opportunity to brush up his favorability in front of his brother again.

This made Sakamoto Kiyoshi also confused.

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who didn't know that his brother was thinking too much, didn't talk too much to Kobashi in the car.

Because,The two little Lori, who are about the same age,Have become very good friends.,From the time I got in the car to now.,I haven't stopped.。

Looking at the two Loli who had been chatting, Sakamoto Kiyoshi couldn't interject at all, so he had to sit in front and chat with Xiao Fengfeng.

And Xiao Fengfeng, who "succeeded in his treacherous scheme", was also very happy to talk to his brother about his feelings about watching the concert tonight...

The car instantly became noisy.

And Uncle Ishida, who was sitting in the driver's seat, saw four boys and girls from the rearview mirror, and he also sighed.

"It's nice to be young... ”

。。。。。。

The next day.

While the media was still immersed in the grand occasion of last night's concert, Sony's rookie singer, Kana Nishino, made her official debut in the spotlight!

The debut single "そばにいるね" was written and composed by Sony Little Prince, the national little male god, and the two-time winner of the Record Awards, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who wrote the lyrics and composed the music and served as the producer.

It is even surprising that Kiyoshi Sakamoto also plays the role of featuring in this song.

Audiences who had already heard this song last night were fascinated by this very toxic rhythm and blues song, and there was also Kiyoshi Sakamoto's first featuring, which made fans rush to the major record stores in Tokyo.

Soon, with the strong enthusiasm of Kiyoshi Sakamoto's fans, the first batch of 50,000 records was swept away on the first day.

"Excuse me, is there still "そばにいるね" sung by Kana Nishino and Kiyoshi Sakamoto?"

This is every fan who can't buy a record on the first day asks the clerk a question as soon as he walks in the door the next day.

It can be seen that after the spread of the concert, coupled with the addition of the well-known name of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, this song has become a hit song that has been gaining momentum recently, and it has been sold out.

However, Sony was still relatively confident in the name Kiyoshi Sakamoto, so when suppressing this single, it suppressed 100,000 copies in advance.

Since the first batch of suppressed records has been sold out, it doesn't matter, make up another 50,000 copies.

Fans can't buy this single, count me in losing!

Sony,That's so capricious.。。。

Not only did it continue to replenish its stock to major record stores, but Sony also contacted major shopping malls and large outdoor displays, so that the MV of Kana Nishino's song kept bombarding Tokyo, an international metropolis with more than 10 million people.

And the name Kana Nishino has also begun to be known to the public.

Since his official debut with the single "そばにいるね" on February 6th, to February 9th, he and Kiyoshi Sakamoto went on MS to promote their songs.

In just a few days, Kana Nishino, with the help of Sony and Kiyoshi Sakamoto, has changed from the name of "Sony newcomer" and "junior sister of Kiyoshi Sakamoto" to the "sweet singer" in the mouth of the media.

The effect of being on MS is very obvious, which makes Kana Nishino become a newcomer singer in the public eye, and the soaring popularity is also directly reflected in the sales of records.

Fifty thousand, one hundred thousand, one hundred and fifty thousand!

When the record sales came out in the first week, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who accompanied Kana Nishino to listen to sales at the company, heard the number "150,000 copies!", and before he had time to react, he was hugged by Kana Nishino, who was excited on the side!

"Yay, that's great!!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto was also infected by this little lady with a flushed face and an excited face.

It's also hugged with Miss Nishino, bouncing in place.

"These two are not too young, why are they still so naïve... ”

The childish behavior of the two older children made Uncle Ishida, who was holding the sales list on the side, also complain speechlessly.

。。。

Kana Nishino's excitement is not entirely unreasonable.

A few years ago, when Kiyoshi Sakamoto debuted, the Japanese record market had already begun to decline.

In recent years, although there is Kiyoshi Sakamoto, a "monster" who has sold millions of singles and albums and dominated all the charts of the public trust chart every year, but, more importantly, the singles and album CDs released by various singers have not sold well.

This phenomenon is a situation caused by the rolling tide of the times.

With the rise of audio downloads, the sales of physical records are bound to decline rapidly.

It's like the era of millions of selling singers everywhere in the 90s, gone are the days.

And now in 2007, a million-selling single or a million-dollar album is hard to find.

And it is precisely because of the miracle that every single and album that can still be maintained under this tide of the times has sold more than one million copies, and he has become the little king of the music scene so quickly in three years.

Don't underestimate the name "Little Heavenly King", although there is a "small" word in front, it has already made Sakamoto Kiyoshi step into the ranks of king-level singers.

The reason why the word "small" was added was only because Kiyoshi Sakamoto was young and had little qualifications.

However, in the declining Japanese record market, 150,000 records can be sold in the first week, which is enough for Sony and Kana Nishino to open champagne to celebrate.

You know, the same record company as Kana Nishino, who also joined Sony at the same time and became famous with "Song of the Sun", released the single "Rolling star" in mid-January, and so far, only 100,000 copies have been sold...

In mid-January, new songs were released by the "Migrant Labor Troupe" EXILE and the national band GLAY, and so far, they have only sold nearly 100,000 copies...

Compared with these seniors, Kana Nishino's debut results can be described as amazing.

This is also the reason why the media have called Kana Nishino a "sweet singer".

This result is also the best-selling newcomer of Sony Music in recent years, except for Kiyoshi Sakamoto and THE SUN band.

In an instant, the entire music scene was brainwashed by Kana Nishino's song "そばにいるね".

On the street, it was finally no longer a song by Kiyoshi Sakamoto or THE SUN, but this time, Kana Nishino's song was full of toxicity.

One more thing worth mentioning.

Compared with Kana Nishino in her previous life, she was helped by Kiyoshi Sakamoto in this life, and she was strongly promoted by Sony, and she no longer just relied on the delivery of letters, and she began to become popular as a "mobile phone singer".

Kana Nishino in her previous life was a very standard singer who was not known for her traditional CD sales.

The vast majority of her songs are young women, so in terms of song sales, in addition to CDs, online distribution is the main way to sell songs.

In this regard, it can be said that she is the singer in Sony, except for Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who is most in line with the European and American pop music industry.

And this time, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's participation in the production also came up with a divine comedy like "そばにいるね", so that Kana Nishino made her debut in physical record sales and online distribution, killing all sides, and successfully avoided the embarrassment of her previous life.

Kana Nishino in her previous life, although her debut song "I" was on the online music source list, it ranked in the top ten.

However, her debut single, ranked 155th on the public trust chart, and she had to pull down more than a dozen times to see her name, and the sales were too low to say.

481 ...

And now, compared to the embarrassing sales in the previous life, selling 150,000 copies in the first week, and ranking first on the iTunes chart, it is really much better.

All this, it can be said, is the credit of Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

And this is also the common opinion of professionals in the music scene.

"The quality of the song "そばにいるね", although it is also a superb work, but it is more due to Kiyoshi Sakamoto to achieve such results. ”

"Because of Kiyoshi Sakamoto's concert, but also because of Kiyoshi Sakamoto's featuring, and even, because of Kiyoshi Sakamoto's popularity and fame... ”

In fact, it can be summed up in one sentence the reason why Kana Nishino became an instant hit. ”

"That is, because behind her are Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Sony!"

This is Kiyoshi Sakamoto's loyal fan, music critic Makoto Kamiki, when interviewed by the media, he asked how to think of Kana Nishino's debut, which became the answer of the new generation of singers.

This made the music world once again praise Kiyoshi Sakamoto, the driving force behind this time.

However, at this time, in the entire entertainment world, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was suddenly nowhere to be seen.

Looking at Kana Nishino, who was on the show alone on TV, they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts.

"Kiyoshi Sakamoto, where the hell have you been?"
