After learning that Kang Jianfei bought Aihui Music, Wu Chuchu and Peng Guohua were speechless. They were not optimistic about the potential of this company and felt that Kang Jianfei had too much money and nowhere to spend it.√∟Novel,
But no matter what, we finally had a springboard in the Japanese record market. Wu Chuchu, Peng Guohua and Deng Yimin, the general manager of Fengxing Records, all flew to Tokyo to discuss future development plans.
The three record companies combined, plus Kang Jianfei's Xiongfei Records in mainland China, have connected the entire East and Southeast Asian markets, and a regional record alliance has begun to take shape. As long as Japan's Aihui Music can break through the current bottleneck, If it develops into a quasi-first-class record company in Japan, it will be a matter of time before several companies merge to form an international record company.
The only thing that worries Wu Chuchu and Peng Guohua is that when the time comes to form a large company, their shares will be diluted and they will lose their say in the record company.
Of course, this is all for later. If Kang Jianfei did not go too far in his arbitrary actions, Wu and Peng would still be looking forward to the future.
The senior executives of several companies sat together and quickly came up with preliminary and cooperation plans. In the future, Aihui Music will be responsible for distribution in the Japanese market, UFO Records will be responsible for the Taiwan market, and Fengxing Records will be responsible for Hong Kong, South Korea and Southeast Asia. Each of the three companies will be responsible for distribution. Get what you need and develop together.
Before Aihui Music established its own record production department, it originally made a living by buying overseas records and distributing them in Japan. This kind of thing was done very well. It was initially decided to promote Wang Fei and she to the Japanese market first. It was not just about selling to Japan. Their records are just theirs, and their ultimate goal is to successfully break into the Japanese record market like Teresa Teng and release their own Japanese records in Japan.
Ever since, the four girls she and Wang Fei had another homework to learn Japanese.
…
"Mr. Kang, I'm very sorry that the zard band did not agree to join our company?" Matsuura Katsuto said regretfully, but there was no expression of regret on his face.
Kang Jianfei said: "Didn't you say that this band is not doing well? They didn't even release a record last year."
Matsuura Katsuhito said: "I was negligent. Last year, zard band mainly sang theme songs for TV series and cartoons, and released a total of 2 singles and 1 album. Although the album only sold 100,000 copies, the single's The highest sales volume is 400,000, which is relatively good among rock bands."
In Hong Kong, a singer with an album sales of 100,000 is considered a first-tier celebrity. In Taiwan, he can only be considered a first-tier singer. In Japan, where the record industry is extremely developed, a singer with a sales volume of 100,000 can only be considered a second-tier singer. In Japan, countless records are released every year. Matsuura It is impossible for Katsuto to know the details of every singer and band, so it is very normal for him to make mistakes in his memory.
Kang Jianfei asked: "In other words, zard's company won't release anyone?"
Matsuura Katsuto said: "Being Company was willing to let him go, but the price they asked was too high, so I didn't agree."
Kang Jianfei said: "As long as we don't shout out the price of a top-tier singer, then I will agree to it."
Matsuura Katsuto could only remain silent. He was quite dissatisfied with Kang Jianfei's willfulness and didn't understand why Zard had to be signed.
In fact, it's very simple. The biggest advantage of a time traveler is to predict the future and know which stars have the potential to become popular. But Kang Jianfei doesn't know much about the Japanese music scene. He knows a few Japanese female singers who have come and gone, and the three Heisei singers are still
Little Lolita, Miyuki Nakajima, Shizuka Kudo, Noriko Sakai and Lisa Ono have already made a name for themselves. The only one Kang Jianfei knows is Izumi Sakai who is still doing well.
The reason why Kang Jianfei was deeply impressed by Sakai Izumi was mainly because she sang the ending song of "Slam Dunk". Then she sang the theme songs of "The Little Master of China", "Detective Conan" and other works.
At Kang Jianfei's insistence, Matsuura Katsuto finally bought the Zard band's management contract and recording contract from being company.
Being Company was established 10 years earlier than Aihui Music, and its development situation is much better than Aihui Music. It has its own distribution channels in Tokyo and Osaka.
Being Company is currently investing a lot of resources in Wands, a newly popular band, but is not that concerned about Sakai Izumi's Zard band, so Aihui Music did not put much effort into buying Zard band.
…
being company.
Sakai Izumi stared at her agent Miura Kyoko in surprise: "What? My agent has been sold to Avex? You can't do this. No one has the right to sell me exclusively without my consent.
contract."
Miura Kyoko said in embarrassment: "Izumi, I'm very sorry. I have argued for you, but this is a matter decided by the company's upper management."
"Why is this happening? Did I do something wrong?" Izumi Sakai said sadly. She knew that Avex was a new company with a history of only a few years, and was also known as a "shelter for down-and-out artists." She didn't want to
Go to a small company with a bad reputation like this.
Miura Kyoko confessed to her: "Izumi, the company was originally very optimistic about the zard band, but the successive departures of Machida Fumi and Hoshihiroyasu made the company's senior management feel that there is a big problem within the zard band."
Fumito Machida and Hirotai Hoshi are the guitar and bass players of the zard band. Two important members left within half a year. It is very rare that this band has not disbanded. This is why the zard band has not released any works in the past three months and has not participated in any
The main reason for the show.
Izumi Sakai argued rationally: "However, Nishino and Haneda have already joined, and Zard is still a complete band. And our new single "Don't Give Up" will be recorded soon, how can we leave the company at this time?
"
Miura Kyoko said: "It's useless for you to tell me. The company has decided to sell your contract to Avex. Your only option is to sign the new contract. As for the new single, you will get it."
Let’s go record with the new company.”
Sakai Izumi was silent for a moment, and suddenly whispered: "I hope you won't regret it."
The new single "Don't Give Up" is the theme song for the upcoming TV series "Shiratori Reiko". The opportunity to compose and sing the theme song for "Shiratori Reiko" was obtained by manager Kyoko Miura for Sakai Izumi.
After receiving the task, Izumi Sakai specially hired rock music veteran Oda Tetsuro to compose the music, and composed the lyrics himself to write this new single. Unexpectedly, as soon as he was about to arrange and record the music, he was told to transfer companies, which made Sakai Izumi
How not to be angry?
Izumi Sakai, who couldn't survive the company, finally signed the new contract, and then took a taxi to report to the new company alone. As soon as she entered the building, she saw Tetsuro Oda walking over with a girl, and she couldn't help but asked in surprise
: "Oda-senpai, why are you here?"
"I am also a producer who loves Bex," Oda Tetsuro smiled and introduced the girl next to him, "By the way, this is my new disciple Aikawa Minase (future stage name Aikawa Nanase)."
"Hello, nice to meet you." Sakai Izumi and Aikawa Nanase shook hands, and the two future famous singers met like this.
"Hello, Sakai-senpai, I've heard your song." Aikawa Nanase bowed repeatedly. She is still just a trainee and handyman at Ai Hui Music.
Sakai Izumi didn't take Aikawa Nanase seriously. After shaking hands, he didn't care about her anymore. Instead, he asked Oda Tetsuro: "Oda-senpai, why do you work at Aihui Music?"
"It's just a part-time job. I'm good friends with the president of Aibox," Oda Tetsuro said with a smile. "Nase is the one I met two years ago when I was invited to be the judge of Ai Hui's competition. How did you come here?"
here?"
Sakai Izumi said emotionally: "My contract has been transferred to Avex."
Oda Tetsuro smiled and said: "Maybe this is a good thing, Avex just got a new boss."
"New boss?" Izumi Sakai didn't know why he said this.
Oda Tetsuro said: "Yes, have you watched "Jurassic Park"?"
Izumi Sakai said: "I just watched it yesterday. It's an unbelievably good movie. Director Kang Jianfei is really a genius."
Tetsuro Oda smiled and said: "The new boss of Ai Bex is Mr. Kang who directed "Jurassic Park"."
"Ah? It's actually him!" Izumi Sakai covered her mouth and said in surprise. She is a loyal fan of Kang Jianfei, and she even knows that the Hong Kong director is also a musician. Kang Jianfei's pure music album "Original Scenery of Hometown" and the small disc "The Queen"
"Daodao East" is still placed in the record cabinet of Sakai Izumi. (It's a great pie-in-the-sky event, cool mobile phones are waiting for you! Follow ~/Official account (add friends on WeChat-add official account-enter dd)
