"It's not a matter of talent," Shinichi Iwahashi said. "On the contrary, looking at these four lyrics, I can feel that Mori Taka-san has some talent in composing lyrics. The lyrics are written very spiritually and he also pays great attention to the choice of words and sentences.
.”
At first she denied it mercilessly, but now she changed her tone and praised her for her talent.
Sentaka Senri kept looking at him, becoming more concerned about what opinions he would put forward.
"The problem also lies in this sense of 'paying great attention to word choice and sentence construction.'" Shinichi Iwahashi said, "This exposes a shortcoming that cannot be ignored. That is..."
Speaking of this, he suddenly named him: "Sen Gaosang."
"Why?!"
Chisato Moritaka, who was secretly "glaring" at Shinichi Iwahashi with his eyes, was suddenly called out, as if someone who was always a nice guy rarely said a bad word about others, but was suddenly caught red-handed.
This made her react violently, looking like a puppy whose tail had been stepped on.
Such a violent reaction fell into the eyes of people from Warner Pioneer and Shinichi Iwahashi.
Sentaka Senri blushed deeply, but fortunately he was able to adapt quickly and recovered quickly, and then he responded: "Yes."
"Mori Taka-san," Shinichi Iwahashi didn't pay attention to the little girl's reaction just now, he just asked his own question, "I'm curious, when you write lyrics, do you know what you are writing?"
This question sounded sharp, but it was unclear, and people didn't know how to react. Chisato Moritaka was immediately stunned by his question.
Iwahashi Shinichi slowly expanded on this question, "Mori Taka-san, when you wrote the lyrics, who did you imagine you would show these lyrics to? Is it the audience, or the censors of the record company? Or is it just self-absorption?"
Morigao Qianli still said nothing, but his expression changed slightly.
Iwahashi Shinichi took his time and asked, "When you were writing lyrics, who was the audience you considered? Is it female high school students, college students, or working girls?"
Sentaka Chisato continued to remain silent, but this time, he was stopped by the question.
Iwahashi Shinichi didn't care about her reaction and added another blow, "You don't seem to have thought about these things at all."
Morigao Qianli's face turned red and white, and he lowered his head.
This kind of shame was far more unbearable than being caught speaking ill of someone secretly, as if something she had always been proud of was accused of being worthless, but what the other person said was true.
In other words, things that I always thought were valuable are actually worthless.
She placed her hand under the table and vigorously stirred the hem of her T-shirt.
"Just showing off your talent is meaningless." Every word Iwahashi Shinichi said was very serious, but every word was on point. What's even more damning is that the tone of every word was very gentle.
... People can't get angry at him even if they want to, and they can't even scold him for being arrogant even if they want to secretly scold him.
After hearing Shinichi Iwahashi's speech, the people from Warner Pioneer once again turned their attention to the four lyrics in front of them and whispered among themselves. This problem does exist and cannot be ignored.
Sentaka Senri, who is just eighteen years old now, when writing lyrics, has the same confidence in himself that he has always had, but also has a little bit of "sorrow for the sake of writing new lyrics."
Although she carefully considered her words, in her desire to express herself, she unconsciously showed off her talents, thus forgetting the most fundamental thing, which is how to build her own unique worldview.
Among the lyricists, there are those who write lyrics that are as beautiful as poetry, and there are also those who use colloquial language and write sentences that look ordinary.
The latter doesn't seem that talented, but in fact, this kind of plain and simple approach is also 100% effort.
"With all due respect, the way I write it now is as incongruous as if a child had stolen an adult's clothes." She was complimented on her talent just now, but as soon as the conversation changed, there was a series of harsh criticisms without mercy.
The people at Warner Pioneer took this very seriously and nodded repeatedly, "Such a problem does exist."
Iwahashi Shinichi's criticism of Sentaka Senri's lyrics is certainly not to bully beautiful girls or pretend to be in front of beautiful girls. In the final analysis, it is to achieve his own goals.
"Now, please excuse me, okay? Matsuda-san." Shinichi Iwahashi asked for representatives from the Warner Pioneer staff.
"If you have anything to say, just say it, Iwahashi-kun." Matsuda immediately replied after being called.
If Chisato Moritaka can write very powerful lyrics, then he will add to the strong group's setting. However, since these lyrics are not satisfactory, then he will use the same trick and play a second set of cards.
.
"What kind of capital does such a Mori Takasou have to be a 'powerful person'?" Shinichi Iwahashi asked himself, "I think that as a powerful person, he may not be convincing enough."
These words were said in front of Sentaka Senri.
There was no way, Warner Pioneer people wouldn't let her avoid it, so she had to listen. And Shinichi Iwahashi would not consider the feelings of a girl he met for the first time, who might become a newcomer in his production.
"The psychology of the public now is very strange. Idols have been in power for more than ten years. Generally speaking, when the public mentions idols, they often think that the idols have little ability. And conversely, when it comes to creating solos and bands, they think they are powerful.
"
"Having been dominated by idol songs for more than ten years, the public's tastes are now almost at two extremes. Either they continue to like idols and are crazy about idols, or they strongly praise the powerful ones and sneer at them."
"In this case, we need both the idol faction and the powerful faction. Isn't it hard to please both sides?"
This ball was served, and it hit Warner Pioneer's heart.
Of course, it is not enough to just find faults. What is truly decisive is the solution to the problem.
For Senato Mori, Shinichi Iwahashi had a suitable template in mind, Maria Takeuchi.
Maria Takeuchi, who has provided countless best-selling songs to many idols, no one would say that she has no ability when it comes to her. But in fact, when she first debuted, she sang other people's songs, and she also sang other people's songs in the program.
Classified as an "idol singer".
Until she met Tatsuro Yamashita, who became her producer. With his help, Maria Takeuchi slowly transformed from an "idol singer" to a powerful performer that no one can underestimate now.
And she herself married Tatsuro Yamashita in 1982, creating a legend in the music industry.
There are many idols who have transformed into powerful ones, but there is only one Maria Takeuchi.
Naturally, Nasen Taka Senri is not as good as Takeuchi Maria, but there is still something we can learn from Takeuchi Maria's route.
