"Ye Jun, I have received the song. You are willing to take out such a good song!" Michizo Iijima on the phone was excited, and even the name of Ye Zhao changed from "Ye Zhaosang" to the closer "Ye Jun".

"Iijima San is so polite. If it weren't for a little confident song, I wouldn't dare to sing it to SMAP San." Ye Zhao said politely, "Since I promised Iijima San, of course I have to do my best."

Mitochi Iijima smiled happily, "The company has decided to use this song as the title song for the next single. Whether it is the senior executives or me and everyone at SMAP, I believe that this song has the potential to sell well. Ye Jun, you are willing to give us such a valuable song instead of singing it yourself, I have recorded this love."

Speaking of the last sentence, Mito Iijima's tone was very solemn. Although I don't know what weight this "human favor" is, it is not a bad thing to be able to exchange for such a promise. Being able to establish a good relationship with the future National League will only be beneficial or harmless to his future path. In him, he has never lacked good songs. If he can exchange songs for other things, it is naturally a matter of undesirable.

After hanging up the phone, the car happened to park downstairs of BEING headquarters. Today, he made a special trip to BEING to meet the good fortune of his new album.

"How is the album ready?" In the president's office, Nagato Oyuki talked to Ye Zhao while reaching out to get the teacup. After a while, the short-haired female employee who originally sent them coffee had been replaced by a very capable young man.

"I have made six new songs, plus the "Rainbow" and "WINTER, AGAIN" that I have prepared to include, and it will be done soon." Ye Zhao pointed to the paper bag on the table, "I have also brought the sample of the six new songs today. The president can listen to it first."

Nagato Daiyuki didn't touch the paper bag immediately, "I will listen slowly from now on. To be honest, I still trust Ye Jun's music taste very much."

"The president has over-rewarded."

In the collection of singles of the new album, Ye Showa and Nagato Daiyuki agreed. Considering that it was almost winter when the album was officially released, it was a bit out of placement of "Sakura" in spring and "Summer Color" in summer, so these two best-selling songs were eliminated.

After all, the album does not mean that all the best-selling singles can be sold together, or, if you do that, sales will be more likely to die. After all, the current release of regular albums is not a selection of summaries. Too many singles will give consumers a perfunctory feeling.

"The last single is still a collaborative song with Fukuyama Kwan in April?" Nagato said slowly in a memory tone. This album is basically scheduled to be between mid-October and the end of October. If there is no action from April to October at all, this window period is too long. Singers in the rising period should maintain a single for two to three months, and the exposure of an album every year is reasonable. Therefore, in the gap before the release of the new album, we should choose a song from the new song as the main theme, and release another single at around the end of August."

I have to release an album in October and a single at the end of August. Is this behavior very much like cheating money? Yes, this is cheating money. To put it bluntly, singles exist to cheat money. But whether it is a record company, singer or consumer, they all agree with this method.

In this golden age of record, popular singers made almost one and made one. The intensive singles were released, which not only made money faster and more, but also kept the exposure to build momentum for subsequent albums, so as not to be photographed by endless newcomers on the beach because of the long silence. After all, hundreds of singers debuted almost every year in the 1990s, and the speed of the music industry was unprecedented. And RB people are not as human as Chinese people. Even if they are outdated or done something extraordinary, as long as they have one or two well-known masterpieces, they can live by relying on their feelings. Even if they are Sakai and Dakoko come to China for dinner show, Chinese people can remember the love between the Star Gold Coins and the Green Bunny that year.

In RB, being out of breath is the original sin. Once replaced by later generations, it will immediately become a situation where thousands of people step on it.

As for consumers, the songs that can be the main single must be the best in the album. If they don’t want to buy the whole album, it will be more convenient and affordable to buy the song they like. Therefore, posting a single has become Zhou Yu’s beating Huang Gai, one is willing to beat the other and the other is willing to suffer. Although with the development of the times, this kind of "convenience and affordability" is difficult to be recognized again, especially the emergence of online messaging, which has made singles a thing that only loyal fans will rush to buy. But in the end, the reason why the single market is so vigorous is not because of this demand.

Therefore, it is inevitable that the number of singles can be released in two months during the rising period, whether it is a self-sufficient singer, an ordinary singer who relies on external composers, or an idol who sells songs with popularity.

Knowing this, Ye Zhao nodded and agreed without surprise to Nagato Daiyuki's decision.

After talking about the new singles and albums, Nagato Daiyuki suddenly asked: "Do you plan to hold a concert?"

"Have a concert?"

"It won't take long to debut for a whole year. Ye Jun never thought of performing a public performance?" Nagato Daiyuki pretended to be humorous, "Anyway, you are not a singer who will not be exposed."

Ye Zhao pretended not to hear Nagato Daiyuki's little dissatisfaction, "Have the president already made arrangements?"

"Generally speaking, the tour schedule is published almost the same time as the album's disc. If you have this intention, the company will make arrangements immediately."

In fact, most venues must apply in advance at least one year before the concert. It is not just that today I want to hold a concert in a month and hand over the money tomorrow.

It’s just that big record companies like BEING apply for several places in the concert venues they often cooperate with every year to prepare for emergencies. It is impossible to really let its singers wait for a year. (Note 1)

Although Ye Zhao had several open-air performances during the publicity period, at most, he faced hundreds of audiences and used the most simple equipment, such as bringing a band and facing thousands or even tens of thousands of people singing in concert venues. He really didn't think about it. However, although he hadn't considered it, Ye Zhao was not rejected in public performances, and he really wanted to be a live singer who could enjoy the stage.

Having said that, he still confirmed first, "How will the president plan to arrange the concert session?" If it was a national tour from the Sapporo Cultural Hall to sing south to the Fukuoka Citizens' Hall, he would still refuse without hesitation, because this kind of tour was too time-consuming and would have to do nothing once it was done for at least half a year.

Nagato Oyuki replied: "The plan here is to hold five games for you, three of which are in Tokyo and two in Osaka. The venue size is not large. Tokyo is scheduled to have two games at SUNPLAZA and one in Hibitani No Yin; Osaka is scheduled to have two games at Osaka Festival hall, both of which are about two thousand people and less than three thousand people. It is most suitable for singers like you who have just debuted not long ago and need to consolidate their popularity through live performances."

Nakano SUNPLAZA is located in Nakano District, Tokyo, with a maximum capacity of 2,222 people. Hibiya Nooyin is located in Hibiya Park, Chiyoda District, with a maximum capacity of 3,114 people (including 450 station seats). Although they are all small venues, the quality of these two venues is not low at all, and it can even be said to be a "holy land".

For singers, starting from Nakano SUNPLAZA, then going to Hibiya Noto, Osaka Castle HALL, and finally entering the martial arts hall until they were performing in the Dome at their peak, which is a dream path to advancement.

Although later generations talk about martial arts halls, what left people with AKB is using this place to hold a rock-scissors-scissors conference. Whether it is a third-rate or eight-rate idol, domestic or Korean idol, you can get a cheap impression as long as the money is in place, but this is like the idol of Johnniez treats MUSIC STATION as the back garden, and Jr can hold a concert at the Dome before he debuts. This situation occurs because Johnniez is rich and does not mean that MS and Dome are cheap.

A large venue means that sound effects and viewing experience will be sacrificed. Just sit on the top of the third floor of the Tokyo Dome that can accommodate 45,600 people. At a glance, the people on the stage look like peas jumping, and the ears are basically echoes and noises. If this experience is at a concert of singers or idols who focus on the atmosphere, it is okay to say, but if it is pure singing, it would be a little bad.

Therefore, many singers who value performance effects do not like to open large venues, so the Wudou Pavilion has become their best choice for a slightly larger venue. The Wudou Pavilion not only satisfies their pursuit of stage effects, but also has a very sacred significance: when the Beatles visited Japan in the 1960s, the performance was held at the Wudou Pavilion. As the first female band PRINCESS PRINCESS PRINCESS, this incident was also written into the record.

"Since that's the case, please ask the president to arrange the specific itinerary." After confirming the performance, Ye Zhao agreed.

Nagato Oyuki nodded with satisfaction, "Please come on for the next new singles and albums."
