Chapter 214: You really know a lot about marketing
Akimoto only felt that the three words "general election" had great magic, and there was a particularly important feeling in the dark, but the beautiful white dove named Inspiration only flapped its wings and did not fly high.
If it weren't for Fujiwara Nao being here, Yasu Akimoto might have left everything behind and carefully pursued the traces of the white dove.
The top priority was to solve the record company's affairs, so Akimoto Yasushi smiled and talked to Fujiwara Nao again.
Professional things are left to professional people, Mizukato is not a man who has to take everything on his hands, he believes in Fujiwara Nao's negotiation skills very much, it must be so high that he doesn't know where it is.
So in order to make the atmosphere of the scene less embarrassing, he communicated with the seven little idols who had been peeking at him.
"Oh, I remember your names, really, you're Oshima, you're Ojima."
"Yes, yes, yes! I'm Big Island! "I have a nickname called Niangniang~" "Huh? Niangniang is so cunning, then call me Youzi. "The relationship between Yuko Oshima and Yona Kojima is obviously very good.
"And you're a tiger, right?"
"What a feature is human!" Itano Tomomi smiled and showed his tiger teeth, but refused the title again.
"And then Maeda, 148, Mariko!"
"I'm Maeda." "What the hell is 148!" "Can I call you Mizu-kun?"
"Last one, Mayuyu! Right? Mizumi Hayato laughed.
Mayu Watanabe nodded with a very standard smile, and the black double ponytail swayed with her movements, but the neatly combed Qi bangs did not move at all.
Relying on what he learned from that idol otaku in his previous life, Mizuha Hayato managed to memorize all seven little idols and get some basic impressions through their initial reactions.
Everyone has unique characteristics, although everyone is not called "the best in the world", but they are all lovely young girls. Although they still have many "amateur" characteristics, the long-term theater training has also allowed them to polish some idol characteristics.
Mizumi Hayato seems to understand why Yasushi Akimoto's idol group can become so popular.
"Mizu-kun, Mizu-kun." Yuko Oshima is the most active and outgoing one, like a boy: "If our fans like one of us, it's called 'pushing' that member, so if you see us for the first time today, if you let Mizumi-kun choose, who will you choose?" ”
This question seems to be a must-have question for them when they meet other artists, and the rest of them also look at Mizumi Hayato curiously.
"Hmm..."Mizumi Hayato touched his chin and thought about it: "Maeda's voice is very cute, Takahashi's words are very short, Shinoda has a good figure, Itano Tiger Tooth is very distinctive, and Kojima's words I think are the most in line with my aesthetics..."
One by one, the water Hayato called over, and each time they mentioned someone, they were very happy.
"So I chose Mayuyu, I really wanted to see what she looked like under her bangs, whether it was her switch." Mizumi Hayato said seriously.
"What about me?!" Yuko Oshima pointed to herself.
Mayu Watanabe opened his mouth and seemed shocked by the answer.
In fact, Mizumi Hayato is just a random choice, and it is impossible to push a small idol to push a small idol, and he has no interest in a small idol.
As for choosing a Watanabe Mayu, it's just because the idol house in her previous life was her loyal fan.
Speaking of which, the idol house seemed to have spent a lot of money for the general election of Mayu Watanabe, and raised funds with a group of people, and the final result seemed to be that the person in charge of fundraising ran away with the money and used the money to buy a house with a sea view. Mayu Watanabe lost the championship of that year's general election.
Whenever this matter is mentioned, the idol house always excitedly picks up the Daguan knife they use for daily practice and grits their teeth, as if the person who ran away with the money would immediately start the knife if he appeared in front of him.
In his previous life, when he listened to Amway of this idol house, Mizumi Hayato's patience was not even as sufficient as when he listened to Grandma Wang's talk about the stock market, but the long-term brainwashing made him learn a lot of idol knowledge.
One of the most important is the "sharp weapon" that makes AKB48 really rise - the general election.
The concept of the general election was originally copied from the election of politicians, simply put, it is a fan vote, and then the little idol gets the position of the single selection, and the first place gets the C position.
So where do the votes for fan votes come from? It's also very simple, just buy it.
As long as you buy, you can not only get an election ticket for the idol to stand in the C position, but also a handshake ticket to shake the smooth little hand of the little idol, as well as a photo of the little idol, and finally, you can even get the songs and MVs they sing!
Yes, when this means is born, the purpose of fans buying idol singles will completely change.
Mizumi Hayato can almost already see that the future record industry is gradually withering, but idol singles are rising against the trend and reaching new highs year after year. But at the same time, second-hand recycling shops, garbage collection points and other places are also piled up with CDs that just take out a few coupons and photos.
"Wow..."Even Fujiwara Nao couldn't help but sigh when she heard Mizumi Hayato's description.
"Although this method will be criticized by countless people, and even called 'evil commercial law', it will definitely be able to make a lot of money!" Mizumi Hayato laughed.
"Is that why you have to take the AKB?"
"It's one of them." Mizumi Hayato affirmed.
"You're such a villain, and the future of the record industry may be destroyed by you." Fujiwara Nao looked at Mizumi Hayato with complicated eyes: "It turns out that you still have this talent in marketing, do you want to consider helping me share the company's business in the future?" ”
"What? No, no, it's not something I came up with. ”
"Who's that?"
"Yasu Akimoto!"
"But... Didn't you come up with the concept of a general election yourself? Just at the time of eating? Fujiwara looked at him with a look of "don't pretend."
“...”
Wash the motor! I said early!
Mizumi Hayato panicked.
"There's a lot of room for manoeuvre." Fujiwara Nao said: "But it's not good for your reputation, I'll ask Mita to submit a plan when I go back, and the marketing after AKB will follow this method." ”
At the dinner that just ended, Yasu Akimoto and Nao Fujiwara reached a preliminary agreement, and the specific negotiations will take a few days, but on the whole, they are developing in a good direction, and the day when Mizumi Hayato will become a minority shareholder of AKB is not far off.
"I just need to pay dividends."
"That's right! Just do it, if you still have any bad ideas, just mention it, and say that you are just a dividend. Fujiwara Nao looked at Mizumi Hayato appreciatively: "You really know how to market." ”
