411. The so-called interests

"Have you signed to a record label?"

Shinichi Iwahashi asked out of sheer curiosity. However, if it is a performance hone after signing a record company, there should be a producer and an agent to follow at this moment.

He knew in his mind that Extasy Records might be an independent label.

"I've been in talks with record companies lately...... Hayashi said, noticing that Shin'ichi Iwahashi looked at the tape he received and asked, explaining, "Extasy Records is our own record company. ”

"Own?" is a bit informative.

Lin Jiashu took out the business card holder from the inner pocket of his gorgeous fancy dress and handed over his business card. Such a young man who seems to have come out of a comic, like a social person, skillfully handed over business cards, such a contrast is interesting enough.

Shinichi Iwahashi took the business card and exchanged his business card as well.

Hayashi told Iwahashi that Extasy Records was an independent label funded by his mother, and in order to manage the band's music affairs, he also released his own records for metal bands in the underground music circle.

The independent label was judged correctly by Shinichi Iwahashi, but the fact that the label was set up by the mother of the band leader to support her son's musical dreams was a bit unexpected.

It's no wonder that the video of the performance can be distributed to the audience for free, which can be done except by people with bulging pockets.

This beautiful young man's dreamy noble son is a little real.

However, this Lin Jiashu is not uncannibalistic, but full of fireworks.

On one side is the dream nobleman, and on the other side is X's manager, the head of Extasy Records, although the record company is nominally owned by his mother, but he is responsible for the day-to-day operations.

Although X has its own record label, outsiders can't interfere. However, even if there is a chance to sign with a band like this, Shinichi Iwahashi will not consider signing with them.

This kind of heavy metal band, which has been in the underground music industry for many years, has accumulated a lot of popularity, and still has a lot of die-hard fans, has an advantage that other bands can't match, once they make their mainstream debut, their original accumulated fans will ensure that part of the band's record sales, so that they can get a good result at the beginning of their debut.

However, you can't get on the table by eating diehards.

If you want to go further, it will not work just by eating the old capital, and you also need to look at the company's operation and sales methods.

And such a niche heavy metal band in the record market, if they want to sell them into the mainstream world, they need to invest more resources to support, and for small companies that are just starting out, signing such a band is a thankless task.

There are many talented people in the world, but before you make a move on talented people, you must first weigh whether you are compatible with yourself. This is like deliberately eliminating candidates who have good conditions but do not agree with the concept of this selection at the selection meeting.

Blindly pulling talented people under your hands, whether you can eat or not, you have to occupy them first, this is a very short-sighted approach, which will not only delay each other, but more importantly, breed all kinds of contradictions.

Of course, Iwahashi Shinichi is also sure that a young man like Lin Jiashu will never have anything to do with a small company.

Although he didn't talk about this topic specifically, Iwahashi still remembers that when he asked if X had a record company, Lin Jiashu said at the beginning, "I'm in contact with a record company recently".

If you want the band to go mainstream and want your music to be heard by more people, Lin Jiashu, who has such an idea, will definitely choose a company that has energy and can bring them more resources, rather than just out of some idealization, to share the joys and sorrows with people in small companies.

What's more, the reality now is that he already has a small company of his own. Either he insisted on being an underground band and continued to use the label Extasy Records, or if he went to contact other record companies, it would have to be a big company.

From this point of view, this Lin Jiashu is a very shrewd and realistic person, which is completely different from his dreamlike appearance that seems to be detached from the real world.

......

Because of the record company, I chatted with Lin Jiashu a few more words, and after that, Shinichi Iwahashi and Watanabe Manyumi came out of the backstage of the Luming Pavilion.

The air at LIVEHOUSE is not very good, and when it comes out, you can't help but feel relaxed.

"The ...... you talked to very speculatively" Watanabe Manyumi hesitated for a moment, recalling the young man's name.

Shinichi Iwahashi told her, "It's called Kaki Hayashi." ”

"Well, that Lin Sang. Watanabe Manyumi said this and smiled, "It's really like a princess." ”

Hearing such comments from her mouth, Shinichi Iwahashi was overjoyed. However, he thought to himself that if Lin Jiashu knew that Watanabe Manyumi evaluated him as a princess, maybe he would be happy.

"That being said," he adds, "she looks like a princess in a fairy tale, but in reality she is a princess with a lot of responsibilities." ”

Don't look at this weak appearance, it may be quite difficult to deal with.

Watanabe Manyumi was noncommittal and invited him, "Can you find another place to sit?"

Iwahashi knew that he was going to get to the point next, so he naturally agreed. The two got into the car, and Watanabe Manyumi reported the address to the driver.

"Tajima, they did pretty well tonight, right?" said Watanabe.

Shinichi Iwahashi agrees, "The most rare thing is that there is a lot less of that hodgepodge in the songs, and now at least it's not an 'event jewelry booth band'." ”

"Tajima is very talented, don't rush to show yourself, it's the right attitude to take your time like this. ”

All day today, the rhythm of the topic is in the hands of Watanabe Manyumi, and it seems that Iwahashi Shinichi is at a disadvantage. However, while being led by her nose, Shinichi Iwahashi was also ready accordingly.

There is an offensive method for attacking, and there is a way to defend and defend.

The two went to the small bar in the back street of Ginza.

"I plan to set up an actor training class at my own expense. Watanabe Manyuki sat down, did not talk about the record company, but mentioned his decision.

Iwahashi was a little surprised at first glance. But after a little thought, I understood the true meaning of Watanabe's manyumi.

If allies are to cooperate for a long time, they need to have common interests, but at the same time, they must also have different interests. Watanabe Manyumi wants to set up an actor training class, but it is a signal that she wants to cooperate with him for a long time.

Sure enough, the next thing that followed this decision was the record label. Watanabe told him that she agreed with Shinichi Iwahashi's proposal to form a record label together.

As soon as she showed her card, the next step was in the hand of Shinichi Iwahashi.
