When making the band Heaven, Watanabe Manyumi's U-miz and Oriyoshi's amuse jointly worked together. However, when it came to the competition, the partners transformed into competitors.

This is true in the art world, or in all walks of life.

There are neither eternal friends nor eternal enemies.

Although begin has regional bonus and is still the first champion of the band Heavenly Kingdom, dreamsetrue set a double record of ratings and scores in the band Heavenly Kingdom, and it is full of topics.

Amuse and Tokuma Records want to make begin as representatives of the band Heaven on the stage of the Red and White Song Club. Watanabe Manyumi and CBS Sony are also confident that they can compete with them.

Especially for Manyumi Watanabe, dreamsetru will be an important source of income for her firm for a period of time. If she wants to develop her actor business, it is inevitable that she will subsidize actors with the income of singers. Since the band is the guy she eats, she will definitely do her best.

The matter of competing for a quota for appearances must be left to the company. As for singers, you just need to wait for the result next to you. It is naturally the best to be able to compete. If you can't compete for it... you can only eat hot pot together for the New Year and then go back to your own house.

...

Dreamsetru's red and white appearance is not necessary for Iwahashi Shinichi to find a way.

However, what he didn't expect was that he ignored whether his own band could appear. Instead, others found him and asked for advice on how to appear.

Mori Takashi Chiri and Wink belong to the same up-frontagency firm. Previously, he used the introduction of Watanabe Manyumi to become a producer for Mori Takashi Chiri, and was then invited to name Wink's producer.

Two groups of idols were created for up-frontagency in succession, and they can be said to be closely cooperating with this firm.

When Mori Takashimaki was producing, Shinichi Iwahashi had to do a lot of things himself. However, in the production of wink, he was only responsible for selecting music, arranging and recording music, providing some ideas, and not participating in direct operation work. There were not many specific parts that he needed to be responsible for.

The first single he selected for Wink, "sexymusic", was once popular in Japan. Now it is re-write and arrange it. For the public, it is an extremely easy-to-read song.

The next song after this single is not very outspoken. It still uses popular foreign dance music, written by Mizuko Oikawa and re-adapted.

Shinichi Iwahashi is not denied the possibility of singing songs other than cover songs. In fact, it is necessary to gain fame by covering songs. If you want to go to the next level and be able to produce original new songs, this is actually necessary.

When the TV era just arrived, pop music in Japan was just beginning. Against that background, many singers who were popular for their cover of Western songs appeared.

However, with the development of local pop music, the public's access to Western music has increased, and most of these cover singers disappeared. The only thing that can truly leave their names is to transform in time after the cover and start to launch their own music.

This kind of "my own music" may imitate the style of Western music, but it must be something completely localized. If the singer's representative work is a cover song, it is also a failure for the singer.

However, for Wink at this stage, it is not yet time to sing original songs. Now, compared to songs, shaping their image and making the "personalityless personality" their symbol is the most important thing.

...

The song "sexymusic" has been hitchhiking with the current dance music and the popularity of the original song itself in Japan. When it first appeared, it performed well and immediately won the 19th place in the credibility list.

Then, with the efforts of record companies and firms, according to the ideas conceived by Shinichi Iwahashi, they spent a lot of money to prepare a gorgeous stage and a gorgeous MV to package and promote them.

To build up a dreamlike feeling, you must draw a line with simplicity and simplicity, so spending money is the first priority.

With strong publicity, this group continues to appear on TV, cooperating with songs that are already familiar to the public, like dolls in music boxes, dancing in gorgeous costumes that look like European court style.

With snow-white skin, delicate but expressionless faces, and gorgeous costumes, these two girls stand on the stage, visually, the impact on the audience is quite strong.

This strong sense of impact is reflected in the ratings.

Even when the single was just released and the results were not eye-catching, the ratings of the two of them performed were very good. The high ratings turned into promotion of the singles, which led to their single rankings rising.

From the 19th place in the first place, at the highest point, he actually reached the fourth place on the list.

As a newcomer, this achievement is impeccable.

However, due to the high investment in clothing and publicity, this single has only made the company slightly profitable so far. Whether it can make a big profit in the future depends on whether Wink's popularity can stabilize.

To stabilize popularity, you must do everything you can.

Today’s meeting on Wink is about discussing these aspects.

The ratings of programs starring Wink will definitely increase, which has also led Wink to receive performance invitations from various TV stations.

However, when it comes to appearing in a TV show, Shinichi Iwahashi and up-frontagency reached a consensus that exposure should be moderate. At the beginning, when popularity and sales have not yet risen, blindly going to too many TVs will only consume the freshness of the public early.

To put it bluntly, at this stage, whether the TV station invites them or the audience likes to watch their performances, it is with a "watching the fun" mentality, rather than supporting them.

At this stage, when talking about wink, it may remind people of two gorgeously dressed dolls.

However, in terms of shaping style, it has just begun. In general, it only carved the shell and has not been filled inside.

The profession of idols has a very significant feature, which is the service spirit. Whether it is a smile, a wave to the audience, or a wink, this can be classified as a service to the audience.

Wink, which decided to take the "personality without personality" route, has neither a smile nor does it interact with the audience. However, the bridge of interaction with the audience cannot be completely cut off. Before it really begins to enter the rising period, it is necessary to find the right thing and build a new communication bridge.

According to Shinichi Iwahashi's idea, grasping Wink's style is on the one hand "personality without personality" and on the other hand, "grasp the contrast".

Grasping the contrast can also be regarded as a supplement to "personality without personality".

The definition of an idol is an artist whose own charm is the selling point. At the beginning of the birth of an idol, its characteristics can be roughly summarized as charm, affinity, and a little bit of under-familiarity.

Or it can be said that it is a kind of "virginity".

However, one thing is that although the idol emphasizes the integrity and beauty and "virginity", on the other hand, after entering the 1980s, idols sang a large number of songs with "non-virginity" in large numbers.

This "non-virginity" actually does not refer to "Girl A" or even "Don't Covet My Sailor Suit" with a hint of first experience, but refers to the protagonist described in the lyrics. Her identity is no longer just a girl, but between a girl and a woman.

She can hesitate to step on two boats, have fantasies about a certain man, take the initiative to pursue, or confess romantically, be jealous, and celebrate the anniversary together...

In short, after entering the 1980s, the protagonists of idol songs have more things to do, and the lyrics of idol songs have become wider when they are written.

However, on the one hand, the more idol songs with "non-virginity" are added, and on the other hand, the mainstream standard for viewing idols is still the "virginity" of honesty and beautiful, and such a split idea.

If you really want to say something, what the audience who pursues idols expects and pursues is something similar to "holy silver woman" or "unclean virgin", which sounds like a contradiction.

Wink's "unpersonality" naturally refers to their stage style like a doll dancing in a music box.

Wink, these two girls, were mechanical and emotional on the stage, making them transcend simple "people" and become more dreamy, unlike real girls.

This unreality also blurs the "virginity" and "non-virginity" of their idols. So much so that when they sing "sexymusic" without emotion, the performance and the song formed a wonderful contrast.

When it comes to "personality", such persona can also be called unique and full of characteristics.

...

While rejecting the over-exposure of the TV station, this meeting also decided to maintain Wink's mystery and exposure in another way to shoot and serialize in magazines.

"It was just that these two magazines that participated in the selection, "uptoboy", were serialized, and they took photos in their style on the stage as a way to promote them."

“The selected photographer is…”

The co-star photographer decided by up-frontagency is Kishinobu Shinoyama. The reason for choosing this is naturally because he is very good at photographing beautiful girls.

The magazine was finalized to be serialized, and this meeting also decided to wink's next new single. It was still a cover song, and Oikawa Miko wrote the lyrics. This time, he chose Kelly Milo's "turnitintolove".

After deciding on the song, the arrangement was performed and the two of them entered the studio to record the music.

From "sexymusi" to "turnitintolove", there is a gap between this, Wink also needs to record the album. Just like when Mori Takashimashita, Shinichi Iwahashi is responsible for the singles, and the production of the album is also handed over to other producers, which is a very standard idol assembly line division of labor.

After the meeting, everything that should be decided was decided. After the meeting ended, Shinichi Iwahashi was about to leave, but was stopped by Jianichi Yama.

"Iwahashi Sang, long time no see." He took the initiative to come over and greet Shinichi Iwahashi.

Shinichi Iwahashi stopped, "Long time no see, Yamauchi San."

Production Wink, preparations for the establishment of a record company and Zard's debut, these things overlap. Things are prioritized, and Shinichi Iwahashi is the record company's business.

Wink does not participate in specific matters, so every time I call in advance to make an appointment for recording time, step on the spot, and leave immediately after recording.

Wink, who was too obedient, didn't need Shin Iwahashi to adjust them like he did to Mori Takaraki, which saved him a lot of energy.

Otherwise, he was really worried about himself, because he was overworked during this busy time.

After saying a few polite words, Yamauchi looked like he wanted to speak but stopped.

Shinichi Iwahashi knew what he wanted and signaled him to talk while walking. After walking out for a while, Jianichi Yamauchi finally spoke and talked about his true purpose.

"It's about Morigao."

Yamauchi Kenichi was sneering at the idea that Shinichi Iwahashi came up with at the beginning, and then convinced him of him and took the initiative to invite him to participate in Wink production. Now, if you have something to be sure of, you naturally want to discuss it with him.

At the beginning of the conversation, I heard a few sentences about letting Morikaku Chiri also win a place to appear in the Red and White Song Festival this time.

This year, Morikatsu Chiri gained popularity with the song "17 Years Old" and had a good rise. In terms of the firm, she also regarded her as the most popular candidate at the moment. Not only did she increase the production fee, she also wanted to send her to the Red and White Song Club.

For ordinary audiences, the Red and White Song Festival is a Spring Festival Gala, but for the industry, it is indeed a large-scale music drama.

However, the idol industry is fiercely competitive, and there are many new idols that have been raging this year. Whether Morikao Qianli can win a quota for appearances is still a 50-5 situation.

When Yamauchi thought of Shinichi Iwahashi's ability to turn decay into magic, he wanted to hear what his opinion was.

After hearing what he was about to come, Shinichi Iwahashi smiled secretly in his heart.

Whether his own band can appear depends on how the company wants to make arrangements. He can pick it clean by himself. On the contrary, other idols want to learn from him and have an idea of ​​how to appear.

"Although it's a bit difficult, the list is still being finalized, and the final result is not accurate. The firm still wants to make efforts." Yamauchi said earnestly.

Shinichi Iwahashi naturally understood this. The same thing happened to Manyumi Watanabe and CBS Sony, who helped him to win a place in the band behind him.

Fortunately, the idol's quota does not conflict with the band's quota. Even if you help with an idea, it will not affect the dispute between dreamsetrue and begin.

Otherwise, if Yamauchi Ken asks this, Shinichi Iwahashi would not be willing to use his brain for Morigaki Qianli.

As for now, Mori Takashi Chiri, who is his idol who has successfully become popular, Iwahashi Shinichi also hopes that she can become more popular.

In that case, he will become more famous in the industry, and the copyright fees for Morikatsu's songs he produced will be quite high.

"Indeed, the competition on the idol side is quite fierce..."

Shinichi Iwahashi pondered for a moment, lowered his head, and unconsciously flipped through the documents that Wink met just now until he stopped on one of the pages.

"How about adding another piece of chip?" he suggested looking at the contents in the document.
