Misa Watanabe was sitting at the top, with the resumes of several underground bands that participated in the music festival in front of her. Wearing reading glasses, she looked through the information of each band in turn, confirming the composition of the band's members and their experience in forming the band.
, as well as live performance experience, etc.
Of course, this also includes scrutiny of the appearance of the band members, especially the core lead singer.
Although a powerful person does not need to rely on his face to make a living, the quality of his appearance will largely affect the company's packaging method. Handsome men and beautiful women are a natural advantage. Since this advantage exists, it is natural to amplify it. Similarly, if
I'm sorry for the appearance, but when promoting, I try my best to create a publicity plan that draws the public's attention to the band's strength.
These are all experiences that have been summed up in the industry. They sound ordinary, but they are indeed useful. Don’t underestimate tradition. Innovation is certainly worth encouraging, but those seemingly old-fashioned experiences have been tried and tested.
After reviewing the basic things that can be put in front of her, Misa Watanabe will personally listen to the attached band song demo.
Thirty years ago, when she and Susumu Watanabe first started their business, they also personally selected bands and helped contact performers. Since then, Misa Watanabe has always insisted on personally checking in on the newcomers who will join the agency, whether it was in the heyday of the agency or now.
No matter you are in your prime or old age.
Misa Watanabe looked through the information slowly, as if she had completely ignored her two daughters sitting on either side of her. Of course, she couldn't ignore it, because they were in a heated exchange of words.
debate.
Today, mother and daughter gathered together in a room to discuss the allocation of underground bands that participated in the music festival this time. The reason why they bypassed the senior management of the office and held such a separate family meeting in advance was Misa Watanabe.
the meaning of.
She didn't want her two daughters to have another quarrel in front of everyone in the office.
Watanabe Manyumi has no objections to the handling of other bands. She only insists on one thing, which is to let Shinichi Iwahashi serve as both a band and a manager, and be responsible for the band's management affairs.
Yoshida Miki also has no objections to the handling of other bands, but there is one thing that he will never let go of, which is that Watanabe Manyumi proposed that Iwahashi Shinichi should take on two roles, and this matter cannot be discussed.
The two sisters froze because of this matter. Of course, in Yoshida Miki's opinion, it was because of Shinichi Iwahashi.
It seems that during the war between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the more the husband favors his wife, the more the mother-in-law feels that the daughter-in-law is not a good person. The more Watanabe Mayumi supports Iwahashi Shinichi, the more Yoshida Miki feels that Iwahashi Shinichi is deeply rooted in her flesh.
prick.
After some debate, Yoshida Miki said without mercy: "Wan Yumi, don't go too far."
"...!!"
Watanabe Manyumi choked at her sister's words and didn't know how to react.
The atmosphere reached a deadlock for a while.
As if she just realized it, Misa Watanabe raised her head and glanced around her two daughters. Miki Yoshida had a cold face, and Manyumi Watanabe also had an unhappy look on her face. Neither of the two daughters' expressions were good.
Fortunately, it was only these three people present at the discussion. Otherwise, outsiders sitting here would probably suspect that there were thorns growing under the chair they were sitting on. Otherwise, why would they want to jump up and roll themselves up?
Watanabe Wan Yumi was simmering with anger. This anger did not come from her sister's objection to her, but from the fact that since she sat down today, Yoshida Miki had made an all-out defense without any discussion.
Is she so defensive about herself?
Miki Yoshida is just as popular.
She is guarding the authority of the office, but Wan Yumi is acting like an ignorant child here.
At this time, Misa Watanabe finally spoke to break the situation, "That's it for today. Wan Yumi, you go back first."
"Yes, President." Watanabe Manyumi stood up and saluted her mother and sister one by one.
No matter the quarrel, a sister is a sister. When Miki Yoshida saw her like this, she felt a little soft-hearted, but at the same time she started to get angry. Why does this sister have to be like this!
Misa Watanabe asked Mayumi Watanabe to go back, but did not say anything to let Miki Yoshida go.
Yoshida Miki knew that her mother had something else to say, so she sat there without moving. However, when Watanabe Wanyumi went out and only mother and daughter were left, what Watanabe Misaki said to the eldest daughter was:
"Miki, you are competing with Wanyumi."
Misa Watanabe's words hit the nail on the head. For someone who has started from scratch and has truly eaten more salt than others have eaten rice, it is easy to see through people's feelings, not to mention the concerns of his own daughter.
But when the needle went out, it also stung Yoshida Miki.
Miki Yoshida was told by her mother not only what was on her mind, but also her own pain point.
Since he was a child, he was not as talented as his younger sister. Later, he married a producer from Fuji TV and took over the agency that was declining year by year.
However, her talented sister is always in opposition to her plans. Each thing she does is more and more bold, but all of them have achieved good results. Yoshida Miki is caught between the old office and her enterprising sister.
The feeling is unpleasant.
Wan Youmei may have talent, but this talent should be used by her. Once upon a time, she imagined that the two sisters would work together to protect the inheritance left by their parents, but... it backfired.
Thinking of this, Yoshida Miki suddenly stood up and said to her mother word by word: "No."
I am not competing with Wan Yumi, nor am I trying to block her on purpose.
...It's all Shinichi Iwahashi's fault!
Miki Yoshida just hates Shinichi Iwahashi who is causing trouble to his sister and the office.
Watanabe Misa's expression was calm, not angry, and he did not comfort her. He only asked her to go back first and discuss the matter later. After her eldest daughter also left, she sighed.
Carrying a heavy responsibility and being cautious, it is not easy to grow a beautiful tree.
However, Misa Watanabe cannot say that Manyumi who wants to innovate and seek breakthroughs is wrong. In the final analysis, it comes from the different positions of the two sisters.
Because Watanabe Wan Yumi once compared Watanabe Shin and his sixjoze, to a certain extent, Watanabe Misa could subtly understand why Wan Yumi insisted on letting Shinichi Iwahashi be responsible for the band's management affairs.
Misa Watanabe had no ill feelings toward Shinichi Iwahashi. Although she sensed Miki Yoshida's dislike for this person, in Misa Watanabe's view, since there was nothing wrong with Manyumi Watanabe's pursuit of innovation, the young agent also did the same.
correct.
Firms must be tolerant and accepting of right proposals, wrong proposals, and even absurd and outrageous proposals.
But even so, there is something else about Shinichi Iwahashi that Misa Watanabe is concerned about and must be vigilant about.
This is something Watanabe Wanyumi hasn't noticed yet.
