459. Knife in the Back

The newly debuted band is not well-known, and it is different from those singers who have been popular for a long time. At least in occasions like the Red and White Song Club, they lack freedom in selecting songs.

For the audience, when they see their names, they must be their representative works. The Red and White Songs Production Committee should also know this.

Don't be too arrogant. State-owned TV stations listen to their prestige, but in order to ensure the so-called neutrality, they cannot broadcast any commercial advertisements.

As a state-owned Taiwan, although there are financial subsidies from the official government, the money is really pitifully small. If you want to maintain it, you have to ask the audience for ratings.

Ratings fees are the lifeblood of NHK, so on the one hand, they send toll collectors who are comparable to those of the shoe cultist to come to ask for money from door to door. If the dead people can be collected, they can find a way to collect one.

On the other hand, they value ratings and topics as much as they are, and they try every means to improve the ratings of the program.

...

With such a background, NHK is willing to let new singers appear in the Red and White Song Festival, and they should be required to sing the most popular song of the year.

dreamsetru's representative work this year is this song "So happy! So happy! So love!". Once selected as red and white, this song is naturally the absolute first choice.

If the production committee of the Red and White Songs Association found that the song was suspected of being cursed at the beginning, then the style of using nhk to protect viewership and topicality should directly choose between two bands and topical bands from Heaven in the initial competition, rather than not allowing them to sing the most topical masterpiece after setting dreamsetrue.

As a result, things happened the opposite, and it was unreasonable to think about it.

Compared to the song title too happy, it is suspected of cursing the celestial locust, and what makes Shinichi Iwahashi feel more inexplicable is the contradictory approach of nhk.

Because it is unreasonable, he has to think divergently and think in another direction.

"There are forces that interfere..."

Watanabe Manyumi looked at Shinichi Iwahashi's face and suddenly said this.

Iwahashi Shinichi got used to this trick, so he joked with himself first, "Are you writing this on my face now?"

But it was true. He just felt that he had reached into the dreamsetrue incident.

"almost."

Watanabe Manyumi smiled at him, and suddenly looked a little more serious, "But, I think so too."

The two exchanged glances, and no one spoke for a while.

After a while, Shinichi Iwahashi muttered, "This is leveraging power."

That's right, with the flag of "The Celestial Locust" being critically ill, dreamsetru was put in a dilemma.

Watanabe Manyumi has worked hard to get the quota for the Red and White Song Club, but now she has obtained the quota, but she is asked not to sing her own representative song.

Just like Shinichi Iwahashi gave Yamauchi an idea to tie Mori Takashi Chiri and Nanshaori to Red and White, it was based on the audience's expectations for the song "17 Years Old".

This year, when viewers saw dreamsetru appearing at the venue of the Red and White Song Club, the song "So happy! So happy! So love it!", the song "So happy! So much."

The band just debuted this year and lacked the foundation. It can even be said that the audience can't think of anything else they can sing besides this song.

Once the representative songs are excluded, in this way, while playing in the Red and White Song Festival, you must first face the pressure from the audience.

The reselected performances must satisfy the audience and make them think that this is a good song "So happy! So happy! So love!".

Otherwise, this red and white appearance will lose its meaning.

Even if you think about it seriously, if the performances are poor and the songs are not attractive, it will be a huge blow to a new band like them who lack the background.

"But maybe nhk gave us this new band this freedom to choose songs that we shouldn't have..." said Manyumi Watanabe.

But looking at her expression, Shinichi Iwahashi didn't believe she really thought so.

"If the nhk side values ​​dreamsetrue as the representative of the band Heaven, it doesn't matter what song it sings, it would be great if that would be the case."

"But if that's not the case..."

Shinichi Iwahashi answered her words, "This kind of intention is too sinister."

"Yes, and this is something I don't want to see." said Manyumi Watanabe.

If there is really a force that interferes with it and digs such a pit for dreamsetrue, then you have to face a bad reality: they have an enemy who is unknown in the dark.

"Who can do this?" Iwahashi Shinichi pondered, "Although it is unfounded, I don't think it was made by amuse or Tokuma Records."

Although the competition for red and white quotas failed, dreamsetrue would be of no benefit to begin if he made a fool of himself at the red and white quotas. Amuse and Dejian Records did not make any mistakes in such a way that they would be disgusting.

"I don't think it's amuse and Tokuma, either." Watanabe Manyumi did not doubt her previous competitors at all.

After thinking a little, she thought of something and reminded: "Why can dreamsetrue compete with begin for the same red and white quota this time?"

Because the band Heaven is a topical program this year, this quota is left for the so-called "band Heaven Heavenly Band".

Shinichi Iwahashi suddenly realized, "If the one who was selected as begin and was pushed to such a dilemma, it was not us, but begin."

This time, it is more about the "Band Heavenly Band" than the Dreamsetrue.

As early as the Red and White Songs Production Committee decided to leave five minutes for the band, which was born in the Heavenly Kingdom, and dreamsetrue competed with begin, it was destined to have such a result.

...

To be honest, talent bands are making a big splash this year. However, in addition to talented bands, there are more bands that debut and are preparing to debut through other ways.

The band Tianguo program, Changhong, is also snatching up the ratings of other companies.

The ratings of the Red and White Song Club can easily exceed 60%. If the band from Heaven is mediocre and even contributes a boring performance, not only will the band itself be damaged, but most importantly, it will also give ordinary audiences the impression that "the band from talent shows is very amateur level, and they can only get red and white when the show is in the east wind."

"How many firms and record companies are involved in the band Heavenly Kingdom now?" Shinichi Iwahashi asked, but it was not to hear an answer, because it was obvious, "not the entire industry has been involved."

A talent show with great momentum is enough to make several forces jealous.

As for nhk, giving up control over the song selection and giving them this little freedom that they shouldn't have, which is equivalent to giving up the band's time to make the stage.

Of course, nhk values ​​ratings, but TV stations have more than just a program like Hongbai Song throughout the year. If they give up these five minutes, they will choose more and more important things at a glance.

While taking advantage of this year's topical program, we also want to take advantage of it, and then pushing everything to singers. NHK's move is truly a model that is both a good and a good example.

Don’t take a high look at their integrity just because they are state-owned Taiwan. When they are bad, they will never lose to the public. Regarding this, in the past many years, countless singers and artists have experienced this.

...

When Shinichi Iwahashi thought of this, he suddenly felt it was strange and interesting.

With the technique of using force, he has entered the art world. I don’t know how many times he has used it. This is a person with no background and bare hands, and this one and a half inches long bug has been able to survive until now because of his understanding of people’s hearts.

Unexpectedly, one day, this kind of means of leveraging power will be used by others.

Watanabe Manyumi has been paying attention to Shinichi Iwahashi's reaction. At this time, when he saw him suddenly laughing for no reason, he couldn't help but feel curious, "What are you thinking about? Shinichi-kun."

"I'm thinking," Shinichi Iwahashi told her, "the probability of Mori Takasan's appearance in the Red and White Song Festival this time is higher."

Once the talent show band is abandoned, the topics in other places will inevitably be aggravated. In that case, Nanshaori will make the show comeback after ten years, and this proposal will definitely be made possible by the Red and White Songs Production Committee.

Even Shinichi Iwahashi could imagine the scene where NHK people tried their best to persuade Nanshaori to appear in the stage and sing "17 Years". As long as Nanshaori never sing "17 Years", the probability of Mori Takashi being the introduction to sing this song is almost 100%.

Dreamsetru was placed on the side, which made the situation in Morikao Qianli improve.

Although up-frontagency would not know that something like this happened, this kind of accident is amazing.

"You came up with such an idea?"

Watanabe Manyumi listened carefully to his words, thought about it, and threw the ball half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Then, please trouble you again, let's think of a strategy for us to deal with it."

"We can't say now, 'We have no songs to sing, so please begin to sing "Deeply Encountered". "Shiichi Iwahashi teased casually, "The Deeply Encountered" will not be suspected of cursing the locust."

Watanabe Manyumi was amused by the childishness he occasionally revealed.

"So, of course, I listen to the arrangements from nhk and choose a song to sing again." He said.

This is clear. Wanyumi Watanabe asked him, "Which song should I sing? This year the band released two singles, and the debut song is not allowed to be sung now. The other song "lat.43n-forty-threedegreesnorthlatitude-" is not popular enough."

Compared with "So Happy! So Happy! So Like!", this single is mediocre sales, which is completely implementing the single strategy formulated by Shinichi Iwahashi for the band. "It is enough to have one or two popular singles in a year."

Do not play good cards one after another in a row with a long flow of water.

After all, this thing is not clearly placed there, and it is as clear as writing it on paper as it is written on it, leaving room for a few good songs at the bottom of the box.

Having said that, the composer put the song in the bottom of the box and took a few years and decades to make and release it again. This kind of thing is quite common. A best-selling single released in 1988 may have been written in 1978.

Therefore, the profession of Wen Copying is still very risky...

"In addition to singles, you can also select songs from your debut album. To be honest, the album's popularity is higher than "lat.43n-forty-threedegreesnorthlatitude-", and you can also choose popular songs in the first album." said Manyumi Watanabe.

"Well..." Iwahashi Shinichi's attitude was a bit ambiguous.

Watanabe Manyumi was not in a hurry and waited patiently for his thoughts. Even with her understanding of Shinichi Iwahashi, when he fell into this state, he had to look forward to him a little more in his heart.

"Choose one from the released songs, this is the easiest way." Iwahashi Shinichi thought about it almost the same and finally spoke, "But there is another way..."

"Another way?" Watanabe Manyumi was very interested.

Shin Iwahashi nodded, "Miyomisan, the Red and White Song Club is a regular party at the end of the year for ordinary audiences, but for us, it is also an excellent place for the promotional music series. No, it should be said that there is no promotional location that is more powerful than the Red and White Song Club."

"We might as well put aside the impression of the 'sacred' of the Red and White Songs. It is not a sacred stage and has no additional meaning."

The first time I got the opportunity to appear in the Red and White Song Festival, Iwahashi Shinichi was shown through its essence.

"Since that's the case, just treat it as a musical and sing on the spot." He said carelessly.

Not only that, "We don't sing the songs that have been released now, we make a song that is not inferior to "So happy! So happy! So love!", and then we will play songs at the Red and White Songs Club and perform live."

Just like using "So Happy! So Happy! So Like!" to conquer the audience who first met the band in the band Heaven Kingdom, and to conquer the audience again.

Shinichi Iwahashi's expression became full of energy.

At this moment, Manyumi Watanabe remembered his appearance when he stood on the stage to perform. Since he put on a giraffe hood and played "kirinjun" on the stage, he could not see this face on the stage.

However, although she was moved by Shinichi Iwahashi's enthusiasm, she still asked first: "Is there such a song?"

"Before the birth of "So Happy! So Happy! So Like!", I thought there would be no such song." Shinichi Iwahashi did not directly answer this question.

The same is true now. He believes in the stock songs he has saved and also believes in the inspiration of Miwa-chan.

Watanabe Manyumi got such an ambiguous answer, but she didn't ask.

Shinichi Iwahashi believed what he had and what he trusted, and Manyumi Watanabe chose to believe him.

"But, Manyumisan, this is not enough."

Shinichi Iwahashi blinked, "It's a rare red and white song party, just to promote a song, it's a bit too wasteful."

Watanabe Manyumi took his expression into his eyes and asked, "What do you think again? Shinichikkun."
