In the singles list for the first half of the year, among the top ten, DREAM T-E ranked fourth and sixth respectively. This ranking seems unremarkable...
However, the single that reached number four was released at the end of last year.
In other words, a year later, last year's single still entered the top five of this year's semi-annual list and sold more than 400,000 copies. The cumulative sales volume in the two years was more than 800,000 copies, joining the "
"Eyeste" is so popular that it is far ahead of other singers.
The single ranked sixth on the half-year chart is the single "日ng! 日ng! 日ng!" which was released in March this year.
After two consecutive singles using songs composed by Brother Nakamura, the main song of this single was handed over to Miwa-chan. There is a special reason why this is so. This single is an advertisement song.
Commissioned advertising jingle.
The manufacturer that commissioned it was Glico, which used the band's debut single "So Happy! So Happy! So Loved!" as the advertising song.
When "So Happy! So Happy! I Like It So Much!" was launched, the band had just debuted and was not very popular yet. In order for Glico to use the band's single, the record company offered a huge reward, not even the royalties for the single.
receive.
Nowadays, the band is very popular, and it is a good thing that Gregor takes the initiative to come to invite cooperation.
The person in charge of the commercial song is DREAM T-shirt, and the heroine chosen to shoot the commercial is Rie Miyazawa. Two years ago, she was the heroine in the commercial that was paired with "So Happy! So Happy! I Love It!". With such a combination,
Naturally, this was intentional on Glico's part.
In two years, DREAM has become a top-notch band, and Rie Miyazawa has starred in a TV series, released a single that hit No. 1 on the charts, and has become a super-popular star... despite the continuous disasters in her singing skills.
The tuner with an annual salary of tens of millions cannot save him, but he can win the championship that many singers dream of by relying on his popularity.
Now that the band has become popular, the treatment for this cooperation is very different. Glico paid a very generous royalties for this advertising song. Of course, the condition is that it must write a song similar to "So Happy! So Happy"
!I like it so much!" song.
After getting the homework, Miwa-chan, who is still considered a mature musician in her third year of debut, still relies on a cappella singing and composing, but she didn't rack her brains as much as before. She handed in the homework early like a top student. She moved forward with one song at a time.
Chong, let people listen to the heart-pounding music.
However, although her composition went smoothly, during the production, she had a huge quarrel with Nakamura brother in the recording studio over the arrangement. After the quarrel, they cursed each other with "Bagaya Road Kono Ya Road", and the production was suspended.
, and moved Shinichi Iwahashi over to put out the fire.
…Sure enough, the triangle relationship is the most stable relationship.
When this single was released, DREAM T-shirts were repaying last year's sponsorship from Fujifilm and preparing for a reception concert. In addition, Shinichi Iwahashi had to deal with the sub-label cooperation with Stardust.
I was very busy with the matter. Therefore, the entire single was not promoted on TV much. All the members only appeared on stage and participated in one episode of "MU Private CSTATION".
This single is the first single after the band's reform. Whether it is producing or shooting the cover and inside pages, Giraffe Man is not absent. Not only that, his name is also printed in the producer column.
If you look at it this way, there is absolutely no change from before the band was announced to reorganize.
And this is what the band and team did intentionally. After issuing the press release, at least for a period of time, the form of the TV appearance must be paid special attention to. You can let Miwa-chan or Nakamura-san appear on TV separately, but if they want to appear at the same time, the Giraffe Man must also appear on TV.
be present. Otherwise, it would be better to cut back on TV promotions and switch to advertising, radio, and theme songs from film and television dramas.
The promotional campaign for this single is not too big, and with "So happy! So happy! I love it so much!" in front of it, this single is not that new. In addition, considering that last year's single
A million-dollar single, an 800,000-rated single. In order to increase the sales of the single, there was no excessive publicity.
But even so, even with these factors that are detrimental to sales, when the half-year chart was compiled, this single still ranked sixth and sold 378,000 copies. It can be sold casually.
Sales of several billion yen.
However, when making this Glico commercial song, it gave Shinichi Iwahashi an inspiration.
When the band was in its infancy, Glico used the band's single. Now, the band is very popular and once again collaborated with Glico, who had supported him in the past... Such a beautiful talk, if you don't make good use of it, you won't be the best at climbing along the way.
Shinichi Iwahashi.
He discussed with Glico through the record company team and came up with a plan:
From now on, the band will cooperate with Glico once a year and write a new song specifically for Glico as a commercial song, highlighting the idea that "Glico has a discerning eye, and DREAM T-shirts and Glico are moving forward and growing together."
Once the cooperation plan was negotiated, within a few years, DREAM's T-shirts and E's had a reserved publicity space, plus a sponsor for the concert.
…
In the top ten of the singles chart in the first half of the year, DREAM Colorful T-E occupied two spots. However, on the album chart, the band was nowhere to be seen in the top ten.
The reason for this is, of course, because the band’s original album this year had not yet been released when the half-year chart was compiled.
However, there is no original album by the band this year in the top ten of the half-year list. The band's two albums from last year and the year before appeared at the same time in the half-year list. Although they ranked low, in the forties and fifties, considering
By the time it was released, it could be said to be a sales miracle.
Not only on the album chart, but also on the singles chart for half a year, you can even see "Eyeste" at number 46.
After its popularity exploded last year, the public began to learn about the band's previously released works, which is why all the albums released by the band have entered the semi-annual chart. Such a grand occasion. Old albums that have been released for a long time are long.
Sales are a reflection that the band's audience continues to expand and the number of people interested in the band continues to increase.
This is a more remarkable situation than having an original album enter the top ten of the half-year chart. What's more, the reason why it didn't enter the top of the list is just because it hasn't been released yet.
Just by looking at the sales performance of old albums, we can infer how "terrifying" the band would be if they released a new album at this moment.
The half-year list of the first half of the year has just been compiled, and DREAM Color T Milk E’s original album this year has also been released as scheduled. In the first week of release, 280,000 copies were sold. With just a few clicks, you can rank it on the half-year list.
The tenth place was taken down by Bo LAN, which sold for over 300,000 yuan.
In the next few weeks, I watched DREAM's sharpened T-shirt and breasts cut down the opponents in front of me one after another.
When the first week's sales came out, the entire industry was forced to make way for DREAM's T-shirt. It even scared the singer who would release the album next week to temporarily reschedule it just to avoid this monster band.
With the accumulation of word-of-mouth in the past two years, now, "DREAM's T-E products must be high-quality products" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the public. In terms of sales of singles, it is much better than the band, but when it comes to album sales, , the band can now be said to be firmly in the top spot.
The album's good sales indicate that the band's popularity is stable and its popularity among the people is high.
Whether it is a band that debuted at the same time as the band, or a band that debuted later... No matter what the band is, there is no doubt that in this round of band craze, DREAM color T-cup E was the first to touch the "national level” threshold.
Now, we are only a few years away from being a "big thing band". Even though it can't be called a "big thing band" on the surface, the treatment in all aspects is already on par with "big things".
As soon as the first week sales of the new album were released, some small articles even appeared in newspapers, saying that "DREAM Color T-E is so strong that other companies in the industry may avoid it." And the avoidance here In short, what it means is that when determining the release date, avoid releasing it on the same day as DREAM Color T Cream E.
It’s hard to say whether other companies deliberately bought such short essays to promote them. However, the public who read the short essays were not led to think about anything, and they could only nod. DREAM color T-E is so popular. If other singers want to win the championship and keep records, isn't it the most basic thing to go around the band?
As long as it's red enough, no matter if it's for fun or for evil, let alone hurt the band, it won't even get close to them.
…
The GENZO band was so glamorous that it made Iwahashi Shinichi full of energy. The DREAM color T-shirt and E were the best, which of course made Iwahashi Shinichi very happy.
The band promoted by the company was a big success, which gave him the confidence to expand. With his dream-colored T-shirt and E-shirt reaching the national level, Iwahashi Shinichi also felt that "dreams come true."
If he had not met Miwa-chan and formed DREAM, his "dream would not have come true".
From last year to this year, DREAM's T-shirts have been so popular that the three members of the band feel weak when receiving royalties. Rather than living a luxurious life, they want to quickly let the money in their hands accompany them in another form. There is nothing better than investing. The reason why the LIVEHOU color chain, a partnership of three people, has been able to expand with such great fanfare is deeply related to the fact that the band has indeed made too much money.
Several major metropolitan areas have their LIVEHOU chain, and Miwa-chan can’t wait to open a branch back to her hometown in Hokkaido to provide the best performance venue for musicians in her hometown.
"The best performance venue", this is what Miwa-chan said.
The band also went to major cities for Fujifilm's reception concerts. Knowing that Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka all had LIVEHOU projects they invested in, Miwa-chan couldn't help herself when she went to perform in these cities. Want to take a look.
Or for her, every time she goes to a place, her LIVEHOU colors give her a feeling of returning to her own territory.
Therefore, after completing the reception performances in Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka, she returned to Tokyo and met Shinichi Iwahashi. Miwa-chan couldn't wait to share her LIVEHOU sex tour experience with Shinichi Iwahashi.
After holding several local reception performances, there is only one last reception concert left for Fujifilm, which will be held in Tokyo at the end of July.
Although the time span of the concerts is a bit long, the actual number of performances is not that many. It just needs to be coordinated with the arrangements of Fujifilm, so the time interval between each performance is also widened.
The LIVEHOU color chain is run by three people. Except for the stores in Tokyo and Osaka that Shinichi Iwabashi visits more often, Shinichi Iwabashi visited the other three stores when they opened. Professionals are hired to handle the specific operations.
Li, Youfeng Daoding is in charge at the front. At this moment, he was very interested in hearing that Miwa-chan came back from a trip and had some experience.
Shinichi Iwahashi was happy to hear this, but Miwa-chan was not happy.
I was unhappy that he was so unfamiliar with the store he opened and deliberately wanted to confront him. This little fox with a mouse and a gun would never change his true nature of making trouble no matter what.
In order not to fall into the trap of chatting with her and turning it into a cross talk performance, Iwahashi Shinichi quickly changed the subject and talked with her about the reception at the concert.
Miwa-chan was so proud that she said, "The performance was perfect!" After saying this, she remembered that this was a concert that Giraffe Man was absent from, so she stared at Shinichi Iwahashi's face, rolled her eyes, and added another sentence.
"Only Masato-san and I perform on a 100-point scale. When Shinichi-kun participates, it will become a 150-point scale."
Iwahashi Shinichi couldn't help laughing, "You're quite good at talking."
Although she was teasing her, she was actually warm and happy in her heart. She understood that she wanted to reassure him and let him know that the band's performance went well, and also wanted to tell him how important he was.
Miwa-chan happily accepts any compliments, with a proud look that is not polite. If there is a big fox tail, it is definitely wagging behind her at this moment, "I have always been so understanding of people."
"..." It's really a good example of how she would gasp if she was told she was fat.
The specialty of this little fox is that he is full of good intentions and good intentions, but he can use his superb tail-raising skills to make his good words and good intentions less credible.
Iwahashi Shen nodded, "This time he is indeed quite considerate."
"It's always been like this." Miwa-chan emphasized.
Iwahashi Shinichi secretly thought to himself, "Only the sentence 'always' is the most meaningful."
He secretly thought about this, and Miwa-chan stared at his face with an expression of disapproval, and commented seriously, "Shinichi-kun is definitely thinking of something very disgraceful."
"..." Iwahashi Shin was a little angry at first.
Miwa-chan continued to fan the flames, saying "Ha!" and arrogantly, like Heisei Holmes who had just solved a big case, and said triumphantly: "I was right about this look, right?"
Iwahashi Shinichi sighed, "That's awesome."
As long as she admits defeat quickly, Miwa-chan's irreconcilable and unreasonable arrogance will disappear quickly. She looked at Iwahashi Shinichi's face again and again with a smile, as if she was admiring her defeated opponent.
Finally, having admired and felt proud enough, she leaned out from the chair, stretched out her hand, and patted Shinichi Iwahashi on the shoulder. She didn't say anything, just hummed a ridiculous tune with her nose, which sounded like she had created it herself.
What kind of tune.
Part of Shinichi Iwahashi was unable to do anything to her, and the other part was because he was amused by her optimistic attitude.
"Say something else." He interrupted.
Miwa-chan sat back, resting her chin on her elbows, waiting for Shinichi Iwahashi's next words.
"Say something else." Shinichi Iwahashi said again.
Miwa-chan repeated, "Say something else."
"I mean……"
She nodded, pretending to be dumbfounded, "That's right, Shen Yi, please say something else."
