833. Production commission

The album was sold well and the entire project was a success. The producer Shinichi Iwahashi is worthy of attention, not only his vision, but also his production talent.

In Kitakawaki's view, what is more worthy of attention is his ability to act.

There is never a shortage of producers who can successfully produce idols or bands and have vision and talent. However, it can allow the record industry to put aside the differences in the portals, make the planning successful, and end successfully. Not only that, it also allows him and the record companies he runs to make profits from it. It is definitely a character to do this at a young age.

Kitakawaki Kazuki has long heard of the name Shinichi Iwahashi. This person was born in Watanabe production, focused on making female idols and bands, and also worked as an agent for Mori Jinichi, which should also be closely related to the song school.

The male idol market was occupied by Johnnie, unlike the female idol market that was contending.

Kitakawakawa has a large record company and a big-name producer with fixed cooperation. Shinichi Iwahashi does not create, and his record company is only the size of a sesame and mung bean. With Kitakawakawakawa's style of seeking a safe musical style, it is not his turn to find a partner.

When he was leading the album, Kitakawa Kazuki heard about it, but he didn't take it seriously. The spirit he showed in the EHEARTS incident of THEB had nothing to do with Johnny.

If it weren't for the little thing between Zhu Xing and Ji and SMAP that Kitakawa expanded to investigate the identity of the giraffe man, Shinichi Iwahashi wouldn't have caught his eye.

After learning about the identity of the giraffe man, it was immediately reported that the first album was 580,000.

The singles were sold out in a big way, and even the outdated singers among them could regain the top five of the list. After the single was released, the album released immediately became a great success. In the industry, Kitakawa Kazuki also wanted to admire him.

At this point, looking back at Shinichi Iwahashi's actions in this project, from selecting people to advertising plans, and the order of release, the release method of the ending album is closely linked, all within his control.

Kitakawa Kazuki even suspected that he wanted Shin-Iwahashi to make a loud noise and let GENZO enter the Recording Association's THEB EHEARTS incident was also planned by him, and he deliberately put it in the planning and publicity period for publication, becoming a part of the planning.

If it is really the same as Kitakawaki speculated, then Shinichi Iwahashi's scheming will make people care.

With the end of the project, Shinichi Iwahashi's position in the industry has become stable.

Not only that, while he made a fortune with the release rights of this album, he also made the companies involved in the project not dissatisfied with him and accumulated enough connections and reputations. In addition, his record company also took advantage of this project to successfully promote the new band Wa LAN...

Even the producer of the most popular band DREAM color T-breast E is also him.

From the beginning of the band kingdom to now, this wave of band trends has risen to this point, which can be said to be caused by this young man. Not only that, he is also ambitious to make the band trend stronger.

A young man who is not even twenty-five years old can no longer remain indifferent to this level.

I am even more grateful, but fortunately those children from SMAP are clear-headed.

Whether the child of SMAP who is using SMAP to do such things is just a simple prank or something else that cannot be said. It is not impossible to guess that an old man like Kitakawakuo is.

Being a junior, being beaten or ordered by a senior is nothing. However, being a senior, it is still too dirty to cut off the junior's path to debut.

The arrogant personality and indulgent behavior are not a problem in Kitakawa Kazuki. Anyway, with the power of Johnny, it is easy to cover up the scandal of private life.

However, having such thoughts to the younger generations in the society shows that they have no gratitude to the office and are not good people.

If the backstage of the Hongbai Song Club and Ji Shi really succeeded and asked the giraffe man to take off his head hood, then this matter would really be impossible to get over. At a young age and scheming, Kitakawa Kazuki is unwilling to get into evil with such a person.

It is necessary to have a good relationship.

In this situation, the giraffe man who learned that DREAM color T-breast E is Shinichi Iwahashi, maybe it is the time.

Whether it is for the desire to hand over Shinichi Iwahashi in advance, or for other purposes, Kitakawa Kazuo conveyed his intention to meet Shinichi Iwahashi through the independent director he was familiar with at Sony.

...

Shin Iwahashi has been showing off again and again. He has been so popular with Kitakawa for decades. In front of the old guy who stomped his feet in the industry, he was also a small person with no family background.

There is definitely no second answer when I received such an invitation.

Whether Kitakawa Kazuki wants to ask him to make a male idol, or simply wants to invite him to have a cup of tea, or suddenly he wants to invite him to work part-time, debut as a male idol, and become the male version of Momoura Star that swept Heisei...

Anyway, let’s talk about it first.

Anyway, it’s not bad to know more people. Opportunities are hidden in the acquaintance.

After the matter was decided, the two sides agreed on the time and place of meeting and had a meal together.

岩桥慎一这个幕后黑衣人,虽然对外不常露面,但也接受采访,把自己的名字跟企划绑定给自己刷声望,去年最后一天,还正大光明上电视,刷足了存在感,只能说是非必要不露面,而不是排斥站到台前.

But this Kitakawa Kazuki actually implemented the purpose of "the man in black behind the scenes cannot be on the table", and was mysterious and never appeared in public.

This is said to have learned from the low-key style of Wanyumi Watanabe's father.

Kitakawa Kazuki was born in the United States in 1931. He lived in a forced shelter in the United States during the war. After the war, he worked as an interpreter of the American Embassy in Japan, attended college, participated in the North-South Double Stick War. He worked as an artist himself, and later he worked as an idol. His life experience is so rich that it is true that "I have eaten more salt than the rice you have eaten."

As for age, Kitakawa Kuang is 35 years old, and is not a generation at all. However, Kitakawa Mari's daughter Keiko and Kitakawa Kuang's niece are the same age as Iwahashi Shin.

Apart from his well-known resume on the table, Shinichi Iwahashi had no understanding of Kitakawa Kazuki. However, he relaxed and just went to the appointment. What he wanted to meet was such a cunning and well-known figure, and his cleverness was useless.

Shinichi Iwahashi set a strategy early, arrived on time, and responded frankly.

...

Kitakawakawa is short but not shriveled. His dyed curly hair looks more than ten years younger than his actual age. Although his appearance is not strict, his calm and unmoving eyes can see one or two of his cunning.

岩桥慎一欠身,向他问好,“杰尼桑.”

喜多川扩把手伸过来,“初次见面,岩桥君.”

两边握了个手.

跟着喜多川扩作陪的人也和岩桥慎一相互问好.

At one meal, in addition to Shinichi Iwahashi and Hiroki Kitakawa, there were also Chiaki Shirata, the public relations minister of Johnnis's office, and Janis' consultant Jose Kosugi.

这两号人物的名字,岩桥慎一都不陌生.

One is a public relations talent poached by Kitakawa when he expanded his independence, which made Watanabe Manyumi admire and dislike. As for the other... he had seen the harsh behavior of Kosugi Riyu, Shinichi Iwahashi was hard to look down on him.

It is normal to have scheming, but it is common for those who are not open and honest enough to do so. But it is still disgusting.

当然,塑料业界,面子上的事什么时候都掉不了.

初次见面,喜多川扩带着这么两号人物来作陪,面子给的十足.虽然白波濑杰和小杉理宇造也都是四十来岁的中年人.

一个老伯请客,两个阿叔作陪,宴请的对象是个二十多岁的青年.

可岩桥慎一是唱片协会的会员,名制作人.谈起了身份,年纪就不重要了.

不算小杉理宇造的话,喜多川扩,白波濑杰,再加上岩桥慎一,三个人都给渡边制作打过工,又都从渡边制作跳槽独立.某种程度上来说,也算是共同点?

不过,喜多川扩当初是打工偷师,渡边晋夫妇都知道,至于岩桥慎一,现在还跟渡边万由美合作.真要说起来,只有白波濑杰,是“择良木而栖”.

但今时今日,杰尼斯事务所在业内数一数二,白波濑杰这个公关人才,有杰尼斯的势力撑腰,也如鱼得水,是喜多川扩的左膀右臂.

一朝功成名就,如何发迹的往事非但无所谓,甚至还能当成趣谈.

“恭喜岩桥君,能做得成如此天衣无缝的企划.”开口的是小杉理宇造.

Risugi Osugi was a music producer and later transformed from a music producer. Since six years ago, he has served as the president of the music firm to Tatsuro Yamashita and also serves as an advisor to the Johnniez firm. In terms of origin, he is both a "producer". Risugi Osugi Osugi himself believes that he has the best conversation with Shinichi Iwahashi.

“是承蒙业内的各方慷慨协助,才能侥幸完成.”岩桥慎一谦虚.

白波濑杰微笑,“能调动业内的各方慷慨协助,这样的才能,岩桥君大可不必过谦.”

喜多川扩冷眼旁观,等两个作陪的说完了,才跟上一句,“有才能的人流露的骄傲,是一种魅力.”

他语气不紧不慢,岩桥慎一听在耳朵里,露出个“受教了”的微笑.但内心深处,并不愿意被这么个高深莫测的人物称赞有魅力.

“乐队潮正在风口上.”

喜多川扩不是很想把话用到称赞后起之秀,以及无意义的寒暄上来.寒暄与称赞的话被两个作陪的说了,他接过来,就开始慢慢转入正题.

“眼下,乐队的市场确实颇有前景.”岩桥慎一随声附和.

Kitakawa Hiroshi mentioned the past, "I formed a band before leading the teenagers of the baseball team to form a group and explore what an ‘idol’ is. At that time, the jazz band was very popular, and Tokyo was full of jazz restaurants. If you perform for an hour, you could get 150 yen."

Shinichi Iwahashi listened silently.

"Although, there is a trend like 'Idols are idols, bands are bands', and idol bands are not supported by the public..." Kitakawaki paused.

What we are talking about is the male douhu group that reached the peak of popularity when he debuted, but soon in the coming band trend, he was crushed by powerful bands and abandoned by the public who were tired of being a fantastic idol.

Iwahashi Shinichi knows it well.

"But," Kitakawakara spoke again, "I always think that there are many things in common between the band and the idol, and should not be separated."

The pause just now seemed to be the time for Shinichi Iwahashi to recall the "Male Fight Hu Group".

Although the old man, Sekita Kawakawa, remained silent, firmly grasped the rhythm of the conversation in his own hands. However, Shinichi Iwahashi had no idea of ​​showing himself on this occasion. It was safe and steady, so it would be okay to let him lead his nose.

"I still haven't given up on the Idol Band and won't give up."

Kitakawa Hiroshi talked about his plan, "Iwahashi is a famous player in producing bands. Not only that, he can make albums that break the door. I guess he doesn't care about the difference between idols and bands than anyone else."

So, he wanted to ask Shinichi Iwahashi to help him create an idol band.

"Does your office want to arrange a new idol band to debut?" Shinichi Iwahashi and Kitakawa Kazuki confirmed that he had a job to come to his door, so he was ready to show his official style.

As a result, Kitakawa Hiroshi shook his head slightly, "I'm going to form an idol band."

In other words, I want to train Shinichi Iwahashi to start from a piece of white paper until I have the strength to debut.

"But at the same time, we will not stop cultivating our members as idols." Kitakawa Hiroshi said.

Shinichi Iwahashi did not reply on the spot when he heard this commission.

Kitakawa Kazuki was not in a hurry to reply, but just invited him to see the practice of the JRs. Shinichi Iwahashi immediately agreed to this.

I can't have fun with a meal, but it doesn't feel bad either.

There are no idiots present, and they are all smart, so it is difficult to ruin the atmosphere.

After the meal, the emotional driver Iijima Mitochi came to greet Iwahashi Shinichi. He met with the people of Johnny and Iijima Mitochi said hello one by one.

Kitakawa Kazuki nodded, "Hello." Thinking of something, his eyes stayed on Mitoko Iijima, who was lowering his head for a while, and then moved away.

He deliberately chose a woman who is not good-looking and looks older than him to be a driver. Kitakawa Kazuki thought a little bit, guessing that the driver either had a background or that this young producer valued her very much.

Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense, why Shinichi Iwahashi chose such a person to be his driver.

However, just a meeting, this subconscious thought flashed through.

"By the way." Kitakawaki seemed to remember it and suddenly mentioned it.

"In two weeks, our firm's JR group SMAP will hold a separate performance at the Budokan. At that time, will Iwahashi Jun be willing to enjoy the glory and come to watch?"

Shinichi Iwahashi felt a little moved when he heard "SMAP".

At the Red and White Song Festival that had just passed, the figures of the boys who thanked him in the backstage appeared in his mind.
