"How's it going, sister, have you found a potential singer?" Li Youtai came to Sakai Spring's side and asked with a smile. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Sakai Izumizu sat on the edge of the dance studio, where the sunlight could penetrate directly, basking in the sun comfortably and writing lyrics.

Two days ago, Sakai Izumi finished the postoperative course of sub ~ uterine resection surgery, and was "released" from Akihabara Hospital, and after holding it in the hospital for a long time, Sakai Izumi, who was full of work feelings and had nowhere to vent, was directly killed in Nakano, Tokyo.

Then the three hundred Spartan warriors in the AKB school were killed.

No one could have imagined that once Sakai Izumi, who had the impression of being so gentle, became a teacher, he was so strict that he couldn't express it in words. Even Mayu Watanabe, who had a close relationship with her, was reprimanded by her face-to-face mercilessly.

With such a big contrast, I don't know how many Spartan girls cried.

"If you don't have the courage to face the accusations, don't show up in front of me again." Sakai Spring Water told the Spartan girl with a straight face. There's no way, who let her Ou tease her tell her like this!

……

"Sister, if you are a teacher, you can't be pleasant, we don't mean that you are completely straightforward, but you have to be a teacher with the seriousness of being a teacher, you have to be like this, like this."

……

Besides, as a teacher, it's no problem to be strict with students! She was not physically punished.

"Yutai, why are you here today? Didn't you say that you went to the crew of "Dragon Sakura"? Seeing Li Youtai walking in front of him, Sakai Spring took off the headset, during the time she was sick and hospitalized, Aika Ohno had already created a lot of demos for her, so she was asked to fill in the lyrics.

"There was a little accident, so I came over. Sister, you haven't told me yet, have you found any potential singers! ”

"There are a few kids who sing well."

"Oh~ The guy who can be taken by your sister, it should be good!"

"No~ Masuda Yuhua and Yamamoto Aya who are practicing dance, these two people's singing skills are okay, if you train it, even if it is Solo's debut, there are not many problems. Natsuki Sato, who was sitting on the side, was a muscular man named Saika Akimoto, and he was passable in singing. For other children, because of their age, most of the members' vocal cords are not fully developed, and the voice change period, you should know. How? Are you so anxious to find a few rough stones from this group of kids? ”

Li Youtai scratched his head, "I have such an idea, I always have to put more pressure on the group of guys in the first semester." ”

"If it's just to put pressure on the group of children in the first phase, this group of children has no problem at all." Sakai Izumi winked at Li Youtai, and suddenly asked again, "I heard that your AKB agency has signed a newcomer who has good singing skills." ”

"If you're talking about Akamo, that's right. Moreover, I was the one who snatched it from Nishio Senpai. ”

"Yoshihiko Nishio?"

Li Youtai nodded quite proudly.

The old man knew that Ayaka Iida was abducted by him to the AKB agency, and he almost didn't kill him from Fukuoka.

"You're a good one. But it's only been a year since his debut, and if he accepts a female apprentice, isn't it too ostentatious?"

"What kind of statement is this, it's just the signing of a potential singer, how can there be any such thing as a master and apprentice."

Sakai Izumizu smiled but didn't say a word.

"Sister, if you have time, you can go to the Kamogawa Museum in Shibuya to listen to the Ayaka Live, it won't be similar to you!"

"If you say so, I'd be interested in going there."

"Hey, hey~ you'll be satisfied."

Li Youtai sat down on the spot.

"By the way, Yutai, why did you turn down Cool Star Records?"

"Cool Star Records?" Li Youtai held his head and looked at Sakai Spring, "Sister, did you go to ask Senior Oda Tetsuro?" ”

"I can't say what I want or not, I just promised to help him write a few lyrics. He's now the producer of Aya Ueto! ”

"I don't want you to owe favors to others casually."

"Then you can't just say that you can't just refuse Cool Star Records, anyway, it's also Sony's record company."

"If it weren't for seeing the potential of AKB48, Shunsuke Fujiwara wouldn't have easily handed us an olive branch! Even if Tetsuro Oda is a senior, I won't let him earn this favor in vain. Sister, don't worry, I have my own plans. If I hadn't known that you were B-Gram's eldest sister, I would have poached you? ”

"Huh?"

"At the end of the year, we are ready to set up AKB Records."

Sakai Spring didn't react for a while, she was stunned for a while, but then asked, "Really?" ”

"Really. Now, everything is being prepared. Sister, do you still have extra savings? When the time comes, I will pull you as a shareholder. ”

"Are you going to exploit me again?"

"What are you talking about, if you weren't my sister, I wouldn't bother to ask you for money."

The decision to set up AKB Records was made when AKB48's first underground album was released. Of course, it was established as an independent record production company. Sales channels remain a key issue. Lee Yo-tae, the sales channel for Being records, is not counting on it, and there are currently two channels that AKB Records can rely on after its establishment. One is the relationship with Universal Music. Because of the cooperation with Scott Polkaeda and Big Machine Records, at present, Li Youtai himself has a very good relationship with Universal Records, and Universal Music's dominance in Japan can also compete with Sony and EMI, and the artists under Hikaru Utada, Perfume, Masaharu Fukuyama, Yoshisuke Kuwata and others can explain the problem very well. Whether Universal Music can look at AKB48 is a question, and Universal Music's attitude towards Lee Yo-tae himself is another question.

Kazuhiko Koike, the director of Universal Music Japan, has been resentful of Hikari and Yu since last year, and this year, due to the global popularity of "You're-Beautiful", Koike's resentment has increased exponentially. Such a rebellious existence in the Japanese music industry actually went to the world through the American Big Machine Company and Universal Music America, instead of going to the world from Universal Music Japan, such a reality made him really unacceptable, yes, it was completely unacceptable!

Because of such a relationship, it is not impossible to use the relationship between Hikari and Yuu to convince Kazuhiko Koike to release a single produced by AKB Records through the channel of Universal Music Japan.

Another channel is related channels around AKB, including Animate, Mandarake, Ishimaru, Tiger's Den, GAMERS, Sofmap, Yamada Den, and so on. Because of the popularity of mobile phone pendant dolls and the current popularity of AKB Clay Man, AKB Agency has a good relationship with these anime merchandise sellers. With the help of these sellers' channels, it is not impossible to put records produced by AKB Records on the shelves.

To date, AKB48 has released two underground singles, and even though they were only released at AKB theaters, they have sold an incredible number of albums. And this kind of sales data is also an important reason used by AKB agency to convince anime merchandise sellers.

It is one reason not to let Sakai Izumi owe favors, but the more important reason is because the core eight members of AKB Agency have already negotiated everything. What's more, AKB brokerage now has KDDI as a reliable existence. Even if it is not released through other channels, even if it only releases underground singles, the distribution channel with more than 35% of the 3G market share can be fully predicted.

Besides, because of the influence brought by 3G mobile, Kazuhisa Nishikawa, who is a diehard of AKB48 and is also the head of the network department of AKB's brokerage company, conspired with a big plan. The website program of this big plan is still being developed and tested intensively, and once it is successful, the sales channel or anything will not be a problem at all.
