The car stopped, Watanabe Wan Yumi said goodbye to Iwahashi Shinichi, got out of the car and walked into the gate.
Tokie came over to greet her and told her that Miki Yoshida and her husband had also come over and were talking to Misa Watanabe in the living room.
Watanabe Manyumi responded, changed her shoes, and stepped into the entrance hall.
Today is not a regular day for Watanabe Wanyumi to come back, but after discussing it with Iwahashi Shinichi, she wanted to go home and tell her mother about this.
My sister and brother-in-law also came back today... Even so, Watanabe Manyumi was not surprised, and she knew that her sister and brother-in-law probably quit Warner Pioneer because of Watanabe's production.
During Japan's first capital liberalization, the proportion of foreign investment allowed in the recording industry was 50%. In 1970, Warner Bros., Watanabe Productions, and Pioneer Corporation jointly established Warner Bros. Pioneer.
Since then, the Japanese government has successively implemented four capital liberalizations. Except for some special industries, other industries have been liberalized. In the past few years, Watanabe Production and Warner Pioneer have completed an equity transfer, retaining only
A small amount of shares.
This year, Warner launched an equity acquisition plan for Pioneer and Watanabe Productions. After the restructuring is completed, Warner Pioneer will be 100% controlled by Warner Bros., and the company's name will also be changed to "Warner Records."
Watanabe Mayumi has also been paying attention to the progress of this matter. After completely severing the relationship with Warner, Watanabe Productions once again lost ground in the recording industry.
Since this year, the record industry has not only Warner Pioneer, which is about to become Warner Records, but also CBS Sony, which will change to Sony Records sooner or later.
In this era, ordinary Japanese people are busy raiding Waiguo's luxury stores, ordinary companies are busy speculating in land and stocks, and large conglomerates are reaching out to the world.
Every now and then, you can see relevant acquisition reports in newspapers or on TV. The commentary is filled with the feeling of elation after an inch-and-a-half-inch-long bug bit the former owner.
After Sony's acquisition plan for Colombia was exposed, American reporters angrily said, "The Japanese are buying the soul of the United States!"
However, if you have money, you can do whatever you want, even your soul can be bought and sold.
…
Watanabe Productions' current influence in Warner Pioneer is minimal, so there is nothing to argue about. The purpose of Miki Yoshida and his wife's visit this time was more to discuss the future development of the industry and the future positioning of Watanabe Productions.
Watanabe Manyumi walked in and greeted her mother, sister and brother-in-law.
She came suddenly, and Misa Watanabe was puzzled, but kept it secret. Miki Yoshida and her husband didn't come here often. They didn't know that today was not the day Watanabe Manyumi would come back regularly. Instead, she thought they were the ones who came suddenly.
"Exactly, Wan Yumi." Yoshida Masaki said in a cheerful tone, "I was just talking about the next trend of the record industry."
Watanabe Manyumi sat down next to her mother and smiled at her brother-in-law, "Of course I vote for the band."
"I also vote for the band." Yoshida Masaki also smiled. He is a kind person, and Watanabe Manyumi trusts this brother-in-law very much.
Miki Yoshida remained silent, listening to her husband and sister chatting about the band Heaven. The idol market is going downhill, and the vacated market will definitely be filled by others.
After Watanabe Mayumi became independent, she first produced the trend-setting program Band Paradise to pave the way, and then held the promising card DreamSeTrue in her hands. This pioneer was like a fish in water.
When the market changes and opportunities abound, the path of pioneers is easier than that of established players.
After one year of independence, Watanabe Manyumi, who has produced ace programs and led the trend, has achieved much more eye-catching achievements than Yoshida Miki, who carefully operates Watanabe Productions, a ship that has not kept up with the times.
.
After Watanabe Manyumi became independent, the two sisters were busy with their own affairs, and there were fewer opportunities and less time to meet. The hostile atmosphere between the two sisters, who had been at war with each other due to differences in development paths, has also faded.
Miki Yoshida couldn't explain how she felt when facing her younger sister who was showing off her talents. However, it seemed right to let her leave the company and start a new business.
Although for a sister, if there is a sister out there who is exceptionally talented, she will also have to bear a certain amount of pressure.
But in my sister's heart, my sister is my sister at all times.
However, Yoshida Miki cares about Watanabe Manyumi, but her prejudice against Iwahashi Shinichi has not disappeared. DreamseTrue is Iwahashi Shinichi's band, and this band is signed to u-miz, which seems to be the epitome of the close cooperation between his sister and that person.
…
Yoshida Miki doesn't like Iwahashi Shinichi, and Watanabe Wan Yumi knows it. Therefore, she always avoids mentioning him in front of her sister. However, when such a big thing is involved, even if it is her personal or u-miz's
In name, I did not hide the truth from my sister, the future leader of the family.
What's more, since Yoshida Miki no longer likes Iwahashi Shinichi, if she hides it from her in order to cooperate with Iwahashi Shinichi, it will only make Yoshida Miki's dislike for Iwahashi Shinichi even stronger.
Now that the family has been separated, we can no longer bury the hidden danger of division.
Therefore, Watanabe Manyumi took the initiative to open the topic and said: "Tonight, Iwahashi and I went to watch a show together."
Hearing this, Yoshida Miki raised her eyebrows but said nothing.
Misa Watanabe remained calm, waiting for what her daughter would say next. Miki Yoshida didn't like Shinichi Iwahashi, so since Watanabe Manyumi mentioned him in front of her sister, she must have something important to say.
Only Masaki Yoshida heard Iwahashi Shinichi's name and said, "That Iwahashi, I've been hearing his name all the time lately."
Iwahashi Shinichi came up with the idea and Akimoto Yasushi was the script producer. The ratings on Fuji TV are quite good now. Although he only came up with the idea and did not participate in the production, no one in the production bureau would really
I think he just got the idea by chance.
Especially now that the band Kingdom of Heaven, in which he participated throughout, has become a trend-setting hit.
Yoshida Masaki knew that his wife did not like Iwahashi Shinichi, but he could not ignore the brilliance of this person because of this. Besides, he was also curious about the cooperative relationship between this aunt and Iwahashi Shinichi.
Watanabe Manyumi looked at her brother-in-law, considered it, faced the three of them, and said, "Iwahashi and I have discussed setting up a joint venture to set up a record company."
Joint venture record company?!
As soon as this sentence was said, the three people present were surprised. Watanabe Mayumi really didn't say it, but once she said it, it was a big deal.
However, Misaki Watanabe and Miki Yoshida were surprised and quickly returned to normal.
On the contrary, Yoshida Masaki, who knew the least about Iwahashi Shinichi, had the least prejudices, and was also the most interested in him, was the most surprised.
