Chapter 174: Finished

The "underground" in the four words of underground music refers to the fact that, unlike the mainstream mechanism of commerce, it has its own performance venues, its own media, its own distribution channels, and its own audience, which is a relatively niche mechanism and group.

It is a systematic world of cultural transmission and values.

For example, underground bands, they have their own way of communication, performance venues, their own audiences, their own underground CDs, their own posters, and their own performance announcements.

This is a category that is distinct from the earth.

In the bands on the ground, they have mainstream media publicity, radio, television, release records through regular channels, and perform.

And AKB48's current state is that it belongs to an idol group in underground music.

He hasn't debuted yet, he hasn't been on a show, there's no publicity from a mainstream music company, and there's no attention from the broadcast media.

Yes, only in the theater on the eighth floor of Don Quixote, there are performances that take place every day.

So, for the sake of AKB's development, Yasu Akimoto came up with the idea of releasing an underground single to test the waters.

And the song choice of this single also gave him a headache at first, because he just didn't have a more suitable song in his hand.

However, when he saw the song "Cherry Blossom Petals" that Kiyoshi Sakamoto gave him some time ago, he suddenly felt that this was the song he wanted.

So, I immediately asked Kiyoshi Sakamoto, can this song be released as the first single of AKB48 in the form of an underground single?

Kiyoshi Sakamoto was also a little surprised when he received a call from Yasushi Akimoto at that time.

But it wasn't the call from Yasu Akimoto that surprised him, but the trajectory of history.

Unexpectedly, after he had already snatched Yasushi Akimoto's "Petals of the Cherry Blossoms", AKB's first single would become another song that he hadn't heard.

I thought that this song would not be released as AKB48's first underground single, but the trajectory of history surprisingly brought this song to Yasu Akimoto again, and in the end, Yasu Akimoto also released this song as AKB48's first underground single like history.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who knew the news, also sighed, "The powerful corrective force of history... ”

However, this also contributed to Masaki Chiba becoming the producer of this single.

Originally, Yasu Akimoto thought that since he used "The Petals of the Cherry Blossoms" composed and lyrics by Kiyoshi Sakamoto, the best result would be for him to be the producer of this single.

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was filming a movie, could not have time to be a producer, so Kiyoshi Sakamoto recommended his teammate, Yasushi Akimoto's disciple, Masaki Chiba, to be the producer of the single this time.

And Yasuya Akimoto, who was a little guilty about Kiyoshi Sakamoto, also agreed to Kiyoshi Sakamoto's request.

Therefore, at the age of eighteen, Masaki Chiba became the music producer of AKB48's debut single and "Cherry Blossom Petals"!

Of course, he is only responsible for the musical affairs of the single, such as recording, mixing, mastering, post-production and a series of creative work, and the final right to speak still belongs to Yasu Akimoto.

However, even so, Chiba Masaki was very excited when he received the news, and he sent a text message to his teammates as soon as possible.

is the one that Kiyoshi Sakamoto received on the set.

Being a music producer has always been his goal and dream.

When he was in the band, because of the presence of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, every single production was decided by Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Sony music director Yuichi Yamada, and he and Makoto Ogawa could only give opinions or something on the side.

And this time, as a music producer, he independently produced a single, although it was an underground single, but he said that he would do his best to make this song well.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto also called him, encouraged him a few words, and said that when the single was completed, he would treat him to dinner.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto suddenly looked forward to that day.

。。。。。。

After stepping into 2006, the filming of the movie slowly came to an end.

Since joining the crew in November, in more than three months, Kiyoshi Sakamoto has followed the crew all over the major filming locations in Tokyo.

Compared with the life of a singer, the life of an actor may be more dull and boring.

When singers don't have works, they are immersed in creating music, or going on shows everywhere, touring, and many other side hustles.

However, this is not the case with actors.

When the actors don't have works, they basically rest, or they go on trips, and there are not many other things, so to speak, they are very idle.

However, this is only the life of an entertainer who is an actor alone.

With the progress of the times, the boundaries between various professions in the entertainment industry are becoming more and more blurred.

It's no longer the same as before, where comedy artists, models, idols, singers, and actors do their own jobs and do their own things.

Now, it's like singers can also act, idols can also act, idols can be hosts, in turn, actors can also act, actors can also go to variety shows, be regular guests, actors go to records, become singers.

Gradually, more and more amphibious artists have appeared in the entertainment industry, and even all-round artists have produced a lot.

An all-round artist means an artist who has outstanding achievements in singing, acting, hosting, and so on, but now, generally speaking, as long as he has outstanding achievements in singing and acting, he will be crowned with the title of an all-round artist.

It can be said that the most famous all-round artists now are Takuya Kimura and Masaharu Fukuyama.

Both of them are in singing, both individually and in groups, they are almost the top male singers, and in film and television dramas, they are also quite accomplished artists.

However, compared with Kimura Okami, the king of Japanese dramas, Masaharu Fukuyama's influence in film and television dramas is still a little tenderer.

The two are known as the two male gods of neon by the media and fans, and some people even joke that the two have divided all the female fans of neon equally, so you can imagine how huge the influence of the two among women is.

However, with the marriage of Kimura Okami, Masaharu Fukuyama is also slowly catching up.

Just when the public was watching this "two kings fighting" and was looking at it, Kiyoshi Sakamoto appeared.

After just two years, Kiyoshi Sakamoto has become a new storm in the music scene, and this storm is moving towards the film and television industry.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Kiyoshi Sakamoto is not satisfied with just making a difference in the music industry, he wants to follow in the footsteps of his teacher and become an all-round artist!

Moreover, looking at the current momentum of Sakamoto Kiyoshi, the public believes that as long as there are no accidents, Sakamoto Kiyoshi will definitely become a top singer alongside Fukuyama and Kimura, and that is only a matter of time.

However, if you want to keep up with the two of them, you must make a big difference in the film and television industry, and only in this way can Sakamoto Kiyoshi turn this "competition between two kings" into "three kings to win the crown"

However, this is all in the future, and now, what Kiyoshi Sakamoto has to do is to finish filming his screen-starring work "Death Note" seriously, and strive to make himself an instant hit in the film and television industry.

Before you know it, January has passed, and February is coming to an end...

From fifteen to sixteen, not much has changed for Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

Fifteen years old, like sixteen years old, still can't drink, can't get married, can't go in and out of some Fengyue places...

However, if you want to talk about changes, there is one that makes Kiyoshi Sakamoto find interesting.

That is, the selection of the school grass of the University of Tokyo came to an end in January this year.

The champion is undoubtedly Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

However, this is the championship won when Kiyoshi Sakamoto did not sign up for the event, did not perform on stage, and did not have publicity and canvassing.

This made Sakamoto Kiyoshi look confused when he learned that he was "selected" as a colonel of Todai University.

Later, after the explanation of his classmates, Kiyoshi Sakamoto knew why he could be elected to the school grass of Tokyo University without participating.

It turned out that when the selection was held, everyone thought that as long as Kiyoshi Sakamoto participated, he would definitely be the champion, so there were very few boys who signed up.

But in the end, Kiyoshi Sakamoto did not participate.

In this way, the girls of Tokyo University were very disappointed, but the boys were about to jump with excitement.

In an instant, the number of applicants climbed rapidly.

However, when the girls of Tokyo University saw the school grass candidates who entered the top four this year, they were disappointed, because, after seeing the handsome face of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, and then looking at these four "crooked melons and cracked dates", she suddenly felt insensitive.

In the end, under the appeal of the girls of Todai, even if Sakamoto Kiyoshi does not participate, he can be elected to the school grass, after all, his advantage is so big.

In the end, for this reason, the girls of the whole school also made a vote.

After voting, more than 80 percent of the girls in the school believe that even if Kiyoshi Sakamoto did not sign up, he could become a school grass.

Therefore, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is like this, winning without a fight, and becoming the Nth school grass of Todai.

However, because of this, Kiyoshi Sakamoto has also become the "public enemy" of the boys of Todai!

When he heard this story, Kiyoshi Sakamoto just mourned for three seconds for the four buddies who entered the candidates, and then couldn't help laughing.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, but I think it's too tragic, guys. ”

"Hahaha... ”

After experiencing such a funny life adjustment, finally, on February 24, Kiyoshi Sakamoto ushered in his last scene in "Death Note".

This is a scene in the later part, where Night God Moon is in his room and has a conversation with Reem, the god of death.

Of course, the CG of Ream Reaper was not created until post-production.

This is Kiyoshi Sakamoto's one-man show.

"Will the Grim Reaper who falls in love with humanity die?"

"Hehe, nice story"

Facing the air, Kiyoshi Sakamoto uttered the last two lines.

“OK!”

With the superintendent Shusuke Kaneko's "OK", Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who plays the role of "Night God Moon", is officially finished!
