Kiyoshi Sakamoto didn't tell Kenji Kitagawa that he didn't know about the existence of the Akihabara plan.

After all, Kenji Kitagawa already had a preconceived idea that he must know about this plan, and in this case, saying that he didn't know would just make Kenji Kitagawa think that he would not help him, and that's it.

Therefore, Kiyoshi Sakamoto directly responded to Kenji Kitagawa's request.

The reason why Kiyoshi Sakamoto is so fearless is that he knows that as long as it is an internal matter of Sony, he wants to know, and it is easy to understand.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto is not generally popular at Sony, and the young ladies are all his fans.

He won first place in Sony's wild chart, "Who is your favorite Sony singer?".

His source of information is the young ladies who are all over Sony Music.

And in the music department, since the debut of Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Thesun, all the singles were produced by music director Yuichi Yamada, and his relationship with himself is also very good.

Besides, such a big plan in Akihabara, the preparatory work in the early stage must be very heavy, and there will definitely be a lot of staff involved, so if Sakamoto Kiyoshi wants to know what the current Akihabara plan is, what kind of situation is it, just ask the relevant staff or Sony employees, plus some of his own speculation, you can probably know the process of the Akihabara plan.

After knowing that, even if Kiyoshi Sakamoto went directly to Naoki Kitagawa and talked about it, he said that he was a little interested, and then inadvertently helped Kenji Kitagawa say a few good words, which was not a problem at all.

It just so happened that Kenji Kitagawa's request just gave Kiyoshi Sakamoto a chance, that is, a chance to meddle in AKB affairs!

Kiyoshi Sakamoto believes that Yasushi Akimoto's position as the chief producer must be unshakable.

Because of Akimotoyasu's lyric writing ability, in today's neon music scene, no one can match it, at least in terms of the number of lyrics.

Therefore, Kiyoshi Sakamoto never thought about it from the beginning, it was simply unrealistic to instigate Sony to kick out the fat man, or replace the fat man himself.

He has his eye on the position of AKB's music producer.

As a girl idol group led by Yasushi Akimoto and assisted by his friends Yasushi Wata, Shiba Kotaro and others, it is impossible for Sony to make Kiyoshi Sakamoto the top few in command for such a girl idol group plan as a record company.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto is also not interested in becoming an operator, all he wants is to learn some things and get some benefits from AKB, who will dominate the neon music scene in the future.

That is, autumn fat man, you eat meat, I'll drink some soup.

And the bowl of soup that Kiyoshi Sakamoto wants to drink contains the experience of making a girl group, as well as the knowledge of running a girl group and producing singles and albums.

He also wondered if AKB would have to persuade Sony not to give up on them if AKB was going to break away from Sony.

However, it was too long ago, and Sakamoto Kiyoshi did not continue to fantasize about it.

For now, let's try it out and see if I can become a music producer at AKB.

After all, although Kiyoshi Sakamoto is known as a genius composer, however, age is a hard injury...

"I want to grow up quickly!!"

。。。。。。。

After a few days of rest, the time for Sakamoto Kiyoshi to ask for leave from Tokyo University had arrived, so Sakamoto Kiyoshi had no choice but to go back to Tokyo University and start his university journey.

However, there are few required courses at Tokyo University, and as a freshman, the coursework is not very heavy, so for Sakamoto Kiyoshi, a top student among the top students, there is still a lot of free time after finishing his studies.

So, Sakamoto Kiyoshi also returns to Sony from time to time after class, brushes up on his sense of existence, and asks about the Akihabara plan by the way.

One day at the end of May.

The sky is not beautiful, and Sakamoto Kiyoshi was drenched by the sudden heavy rain on the way to the Sony building after class.

"Really, I knew I came with an umbrella, this weather forecast is really accurate, but unfortunately I didn't believe it... Kiyoshi Sakamoto walked into the Sony building with a backpack on his back, soaking wet.

Today he came to Sony, not for anything else, just to see how many singles sold by thesun band and Arashi in a month of release.

Neon's records have been in decline since the beginning of the zero years, and there are only one or two million singles every year, just because of the scarcity of millions of singles, so when Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Thesun's three consecutive million singles appeared, people thought that the neon music scene had not declined.

However, the success of Kiyoshi Sakamoto and thesun is more about good songs and strong publicity, and finally adding a little luck, which led to such brilliance.

Posterity can hardly replicate it.

And the neon music scene is waiting to see if thesun's super popular band, the second single after half a year, can it still sell more than one million?

No one has been able to give an answer to this.

Some people believe that under the resistance of Arashi, thesun will definitely not be able to achieve amazing results like his debut single, and may even drop sales significantly.

They also cite the reasons.

One: Song quality.

Compared with the debut song "Flower", this time "Planet" is undoubtedly slightly inferior in quality.

2. Exposure.

This is thesun's second single after half a year. Although it made its debut in the Red and White Song Club, more people knew about this band.

However, in the past half a year, although Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who is the core of the band, has been dangling in front of people's eyes, Ogawa Shin is also very active in variety shows.

However, in general, the exposure of all the members of the band is too little, and there is still not enough news about them.

Three: Denis's blockade.

As one of Neon's four major brokerage firms, Genesys made a move this time.

And his target is Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

According to some gossip, Janis is very dissatisfied with Sakamoto Kiyoshi, a talented singer, because he is handsome and talented, and he has robbed the female fans of Janis's idol group.

Therefore, this time, Genesys will not hesitate to let the two factions temporarily reconcile and jointly deal with the "foreign enemy" of Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

Just these three points, these people in the industry who are optimistic about thesun are already clamoring that thesun will definitely flop.

However, just when they were shouting at their peak, Kiyoshi Sakamoto appeared on NHK News.

It was on April 13th, NHK's evening news broadcast a clip of this year's entrance ceremony for new students.

And Kiyoshi Sakamoto, as a representative of the freshmen, gave a speech and took the oath on stage, which was faithfully broadcast by NHK.

NHK, as a national television station, has a considerable number of neon viewers, and what can appear in the evening news is an event that has caused heated discussions in the society.

The entrance ceremony for new students at the University of Tokyo is a special category.

Because it is a channel to promote the elite theory of Todai, it will be broadcast every year.

And this year's entrance ceremony for new students at the University of Tokyo has made one person, and that is Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

The entire neon people, more or less from the news newspapers and magazines, knew that there was such a teenager, at the age of fifteen, who became the youngest student in history.

The public knows that he is a genius and a singer.

However, it wasn't until they saw the news clip broadcast by NHK that they realized that this teenager was still so powerful, and he was admitted to Japan's No. 1 university, the University of Tokyo, as the chief.

As a representative of the new students, he also took the oath at the entrance ceremony of the new students.

This made the entire neon realize that such a talented boy who studied well, looked handsome, and sang well.

Out of curiosity about him, people began to search for the name "Sakamoto Kiyoshi" on the Internet.

But I found out, hey, this talented boy is still the lead singer of a rock band, and he has just released his second single, so, out of concern for Sakamoto Kiyoshi, thesun's singles, starting in mid-April, have exploded in sales.

At Neon, CD sales accounted for 80 percent of total sales.

The general CD sales model is that the early stage is very strong, and the stamina is weak, and there are generally few like Masaharu Fukuyama's "Sakurasaka", where sales are like a river, and they have been sold for a long time, and they are full of stamina.

Take thesun's head-on rival this time, Arashi, for example, their single initial sales (that is, first-week sales) are basically not far from the total sales.

Historically, their "Sakura Sakura" only had 110,000 sales at the beginning, and the total sales would be 170,000.

It's a lot of tears.

However, this head-to-head bar with thesun is also an opportunity for Arashi.

In order to suppress thesun, Janis did not hesitate to let Lan go on the programs of his own brothers and promote the singles, and in various resources, they were inclined to them a lot, coupled with the hot topic of the duel with thesun, so that Lan's single was not as miserable as in history.

However, that is the end of it.

The shortcomings of the lack of stamina were already exposed in mid-April.

On the other hand, Thesun's sales began to decline in mid-April, but after Kiyoichi Sakamoto appeared in the NHK news, the sales curve, which had been declining, began to rebound all at once and soared.

"As of today, your single has been on sale for two months, and the sales... Breaking through a million again!! and Arashi only sold 500,000, you're twice as much. Director Yamada, who was holding the data sheet, thought that the three people present would be shouting excitedly after saying this.

As a result, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, Makoto Ogawa, and Masaki Chiba are all as quiet as chickens...

"What's the matter? Your singles have exceeded a million, and you still win Lan, aren't you happy?" Yamada, an anti-Genesys, doesn't know why the three sons of thesun are so calm.

"Happy, yes!" Sakamoto Kiyoshi heard Yamada's words, and he was also very face-saving, and lazily raised his hand "yes", a perfunctory attitude that made Yamada speechless.

"Chiba-kun,It's not like you?Usually if there's something very pleasantly surprised.,You're the first person to get high.,Now... ”

"Well, that, because we already knew, this time, the duel will definitely be won. So, I wasn't too excited... "The most excited people at thesun are also lacking in interest.

"Huh, how do you know?" Yamada was stunned.

"Guess, No, you see, since the second week, we have been the champion of the weekly list, and Arashi has experienced a rapid decline in sales after a strong early stage, so you don't have to think about it, we will definitely win. In fact, as early as a month ago, the winner was decided. Kiyoshi Sakamoto explained to Yamada.

"As for the million singles, is it difficult for us?" When saying this, Kiyoshi Sakamoto asked Ogawa and Chiba with a very hung expression.

And the two sons also replied at the same time very tacitly, "It's not difficult at all!"

Seeing the three sons who pretended to be forced like this, Yamada instantly felt that Sony had this pretending trio, would it be besieged by others? . .
