Chapter 6 Bosom Friend

In this case, coupled with the negative images of "Exposed Army" and "Underground Idol", naturally no record company is willing to take over AKB, even if Yasu Akimoto continuously throws out his connections and feelings in the entertainment industry for many years, it is useless, and for a singing group, if you can't release a record, it means that there is no future, so this matter has been about to make Yasushi Akimoto die recently. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info (In real history, AKB did not release records for more than 200 days due to the lack of record company cooperation, and veteran members such as Mai Oshima withdrew one after another, so that period can be called the darkest period of AKB.) )

And Takeshi Fujishima's words Akimoto Yasu still believes it very much, because he is the eldest young master of Genesys, and if he is willing to help his own record company, it is still very likely to succeed.

Therefore, although he very much didn't want to sign these cash cows to other firms, but now it's time to save his life, after all, if he can't save his life, then the future will be useless, so he said helplessly: "Okay, I don't know which members you want to sign with Mr. Fujishima?"

"Atsuko Maeda, Yuko Oshima, Mariko Shinoha, Tomomi Itano, Yoona Kojima, Tomomi Kawanishi, Yuki Kashiwagi, Minami Takahashi, ......"

Before Takeshi Fujishima could finish speaking, he was hurriedly interrupted by Yasuya Akimoto: "Mr. Fujishima, you are simply emptying my AKB." ”

Fujishima Takeshi said with some embarrassment: "Well, it seems to be a little more, so you say, how many members can I sign at most?"

Qiu Yuankang thought for a moment, then raised three fingers and said, "Three, absolutely no more." ”

"It's only three? That's too little, you see I have to inject money and help you contact the record company, and you only give me three places, which is too stingy. Takeshi Fujishima bargained.

may really feel that he is too stingy, so Akimoto Yasushi hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "That, that's five, there can't be more, and it can't all be members of the front row." (The members in the front row are the members who stand in the front when dancing, and because there are so many people in the AKB, there is no one in a row, and those who can stand in the front are very popular and well-known.) )

After arguing for a long time, Fujishima Takecai seemed to take a step back and said very reluctantly, "Then Yuko Oshima, Mariko Shinoda, Tomomi Itano, plus Toho Watanabe and Akimoto Caiga, this is always okay." ”

Although he was very reluctant to Yuko Oshima and Mariko Shinoda, he finally saved Atsuko Maeda, the biggest pillar of the AKB, and most of the members of the Seven Gods (the seven most valued members are called "Seven"), so Yasu Akimoto nodded and said, "Then these girls will be taken care of by you, Mr. Fujishima, in the future." But I don't want to announce this for the time being, and I'll wait until I contact a few more offices to make an announcement together, do you think that's okay?"

Fujishima Takeshi understood the purpose of Akimoto Yasu's doing, because if he was the only one who did this, then it would not be a scale effect at all, and in his previous life, Akimoto Yasushi did announce it together after negotiating with Ota, Watanabe and other firms, so he naturally nodded and agreed.

After talking about business, it is natural to celebrate. At the end of the feast, Takeshi Fujishima and Yasu Akimoto were almost drunk, and Takeshi Fujishima said to Yasushi Akimoto in a drunken mood, "Mr. Akimoto, do you know which of the songs you wrote for AKB is my favorite?"

Yasu Akimoto shook his head a little heavily, and said in a daze, "Is it "I Want to See You"?" The reason why Yasu Akimoto said this is because this album was the best-selling album of AKB until 2008.

Takeshi Fujishima shook his head and said, "No, my favorite is the song "Are You Watching the Sunset" from the previous paragraph." ”

As soon as he heard Takeshi Fujishima say this, Yasu Akimoto immediately said excitedly as if he had met a bosom friend: "Mr. Fujishima, oh, no, Xiao Wu, we are really fated between the two, do you know? Among the nearly 100 songs I wrote for AKB, my favorite is also this song "Watching the Sunset" , It can be said that this is the most satisfying work in the past two years, but it is this album that actually set the lowest sales record in AKB's history, not even 20,000 copies, when I heard the news, I almost couldn't believe my eyes, am I really too old to keep up with the situation?" In the end, Akimoto Yasu's will began to become depressed from the initial excitement.

In fact, whether it is this "Are You Watching the Sunset" or the song "My Sun" in front of him, whether it is the lyrics, arrangement, MV or the singers' singing and performance, there is nothing to find fault with, and the reason why it has not been recognized by the market is due to the problems of the previous albums, especially "Sailor Suit is Really in the Way" and "Love That Was Dismissed". Takeshi Fujishima explained slowly.

Yasu Akimoto asked a little puzzled, "What's wrong with these two albums?"

Takeshi Fujishima reluctantly sorted out his thoughts, and then said, "To put it simply, you are too anxious. Let's talk about the second album "Sailor Suit is Really Getting in the Way", the theme of this song is ***** the first sentence of the beginning directly points out the word Shibuya, and the MV was filmed directly on the streets of Shibuya.

What kind of place is Shibuya? It's a paradise for hot girls! And our AKB is based in Akihabara, which is a paradise for otaku. These two cultural gathering areas can be said to be diametrically opposed and incompatible.

Of course, I know that you want to expand the market, so you want to tear off the Akihabara label on your body and open up Shibuya, but you are still too anxious and use too much force, so it backfires.
