Chapter 388 How to stand on three boats?

After Natsukawa Rimi came out of the recording room, she took a break and Ye Zhao solemnly said to her: "I'm sorry, Miss Kanaku, what I want to tell you is that I can't let you sing this song for this movie."

"Is that true..." Perhaps because he was prepared in his heart, Satomi Natsukawa was not surprised or showed any loss, but accepted it very calmly.

From the late 1980s to now, she has failed too many times. There are too many opportunities and dreams that come to her right now.

So, adding a 1 to the original N will no longer cause her to react too strongly.

"However, thank you really, for coming to Tokyo from Ishigaki Island for such a willful request... although it was not able to give you a decent result."

"It's okay, I'm already satisfied to get such an opportunity to try." Nakagawa Rimi's smile was very gentle, reminding Ye Zhao of the later description of her singing, "healing".

"And," said Natsukawa Rimi, as if she was energizing the atmosphere: "It has been a few years since she left Tokyo, and I just can take the opportunity to take a look."

"So, have Miss Kenji felt any changes from the past to now?" Ye Zhao was a little curious.

Natsukawa Rimi thought for a while, "In contrast, maybe my mood has changed more."

The frank words that made Ye Zhao laughed.

"By the way, I want to thank you for helping you sing this song." Ye Zhao thanked her.

"I should thank you for being lucky enough to sing such a good song." Nakagawa Rimi said, "I didn't expect that Ye Zhaosang could even do Okinawa folk songs so well."

"I've all said that I'm influenced by the Miyazawa Sang of THE BOOM..." Ye Zhao followed his previous remarks, "so I've always been interested in Okinawa folk songs and have also visited Okinawa."

This reason can be said to be quite sufficient.

The travel expenses for Satomi Natsukawa to Tokyo to attend the audition, plus the meal and accommodation expenses during this period, were all borne by Ye Zhao, so although she was suspected of having a waste of time, she did not lose money.

Of course, her trip was not a waste of time.

During this period, in addition to audition, she also met her mentor Kento Mitsui and reminisced about these trivial matters, Ye Zhao was also secretly looking for a suitable opportunity for her.

Although the theme song of the movie has been decided not to let her sing, the sample of "Auspicious Sea" was not something he asked her to record and play on a whim. He gave the sample of this song to Nagato Oshiyuki and Okazaki Tadao of Sony Records.

She had already lost the trial of the movie theme song, so this time, before the result came out, Ye Zhao chose to shut up and not tell her about this.

It's a blessing that he didn't tell her about this, because both Nagato Okazaki and Sony's Tadao Okazaki refused to recruit Nakagawa Rimi after listening to the sample.

The reason why BEING refuses to take over Natsukawa Rimi is very simple. This company, which now specializes in pop rock, is not interested in expanding its business to Okinawa folk songs.

In fact, although he gave the sample to Nagato Daiyuki, Ye Zhao himself didn't think he would recruit such a folk singer.

However, Nagato Oyuki praised the song he brought, "It has a very delicious song, and the Okinawan flavor is still very authentic."

As far as praise is concerned, while appreciating and surprised by his changing creative style and high-yield creative ability, he is also speechless about his "unprofessional" level.

As for the reason why Sony rejects Satomi Natsukawa, I think about it and know that it is because she is not a singer with very commercial value.

Kawamoto Makoto's original selling points included creations, musical instruments, and a unique voice. PUFFY's selling points were personality idols, beautiful faces and fashionable combinations. And they had a contract with Sony.

But what about Mi Natsukawa? She is not outstanding in appearance and cannot produce and sell it on her own. Especially when she sang Okinawa folk songs that both pick songs and audiences. She also had a failed debut experience, which is a bad record for her resume.

Some record companies failed to invest for her, and this impression will also affect the subsequent record companies' judgment of her.

"Although it is difficult to say no to reject Ye Jun... I really don't see any investment value in her. What's more, she has a failed debut history with Poli Jiayin."

It is easy to make the meat with a repot, but it is difficult to make the singers with a repot. The record company does not want to take this risk, and even says that it does not want to do this in an extra time. This idea can be understood.

This can be felt from the time she terminated her contract with Polika to her re-launch, the long gap period she experienced in the middle can be felt. This is still the case with Kento Mitsui continuing to promote her.

Understanding is understanding, and when both his old boss and his partner rejected Satomi Nakagawa, two choices appeared in front of Ye Zhao: one was to give up selling Satomi Nakagawa, and no longer care about her, just pretend that she had never met her before.

As for the second option, it is to consider record companies other than BEING and Sony.

Considering another record company, this choice seems to be the most natural thing at this stage, but this choice made Ye Zhao feel a little subtle.

His personal record appointments are BEING, BEING singers. Except for B’z and ZARD, the nominal producers of others are all Nagato Yuki, so there will be no disputes in this regard.

The singers he serves as producer are all at Sony, and he himself forms a limited band with Sony singers. No matter how you look at it, he is a pro-Sony musician.

There are naturally reasons why Sony gives Kawamoto Makoto and PUFFY such good publicity treatment. Therefore, as a "pro-Sony player", he will give priority to recommending Natsukawa Rimi to Sony.

...Although they refused to accept this bowl of re-cooked meat.

Even if Sony does not accept Natsuri ***EING, it does not want to expand its Okinawa folk song business. However, if Ye Zhao wants to introduce Natsuri MI to other record companies and let go of her producers, it would be fine. If she interferes in her record production, it would be related to the three record companies.

What kind of posture do you need to use when you step on three boats?

Should I choose the first type, pretend that this didn't happen, and say goodbye to Natsukawa Rimi? If this is really done, then what is the purpose of his busy schedule?
