145. Goal Emergence(2/2)
"It's 'the band', right?"
"Yes. To be precise, I think there will be a golden age of D next." Shinichi Iwahashi had no intention of hiding his thoughts in front of Watanabe Wan Yumi.
"How do you say it?" Watanabe Wan Yumi was very interested and became more energetic.
Nowadays, the record market is obviously declining year after year. Strong players such as Akina Nakamori and Fanggezi Band are unable to change this situation. Last year, the number one record on the album chart was only over 500,000.
However, under such circumstances, this person asserted that the future would be a golden age of music.
"Now, the record market is indeed declining year by year, but I think it will soon usher in a new round of rise. The reason for this assertion comes from a statistics."
"Last year, d's production volume surpassed lp's, becoming the top shipment among various media."
"In fact, d has natural advantages among various media media." Shinichi Iwahashi said.
"The sound quality of lp is undoubtedly better than that of d, but it is not convenient enough, and the debugging of vinyl record players is also a big problem. Although tapes are convenient, compared with d, the latter's technology is more advanced and the music distortion is lower. Of course
, it’s still the same problem, it’s more convenient to use a D player to select music than a tape.”
"So it can be said that d is a product between LP and tape, combining the advantages of the other two."
"Excluding these technical factors, as far as we are concerned," Shinichi Iwahashi said, referring to their status as industry insiders, "the production cost of d is low enough, so even producers will definitely favor it more in the future.
d. In order to promote it to fully occupy the market, various efforts will even be made."
Watanabe Manyumi listened very carefully.
She did not expect that Iwahashi Shinichi would view the next situation from the perspective of the media. But it was indeed as he said, the advantages of D were extremely obvious.
"It's very similar to when televisions first started to become popular among people," said Shinichi Iwahashi.
"Thanks to the Olympics, the number of televisions in Japan has increased significantly. But at that time, many people did not believe that the next era of television would come. Watanabe Shinso, your father, saw the potential of television and worked hard to
After entering this industry, I became very successful.”
The background of the era is also similar. When the television era came, it was Japan's first golden age of economic take-off. But now, the background of the D era is the bubble era that boiled after the signing of the Plaza Accord.
"Yes." When mentioning her father, Watanabe Wan Yumi nodded. She couldn't help but feel in her heart that Shinichi Iwahashi, who was now firmly talking about the future D era, was similar to his father in behavior.
"So, now is the time to seize D."
Iwahashi Shinichi vowed, "The advantages of D are very obvious. Record companies think so, and the public after comparison will also think so. In the future, even the equipment in cars will change from tape players to D players."
"Besides, if we enter the era of bands in the future, bands will not be like idols and cannot participate in music programs intensively every day. If you want to hear their songs, you will have to pay for them. Therefore, the sales of records will definitely rise."
"As a result, the music market will usher in a big change."
Watanabe Manyumi saw a small flame of ambition in Iwahashi Shinichi's summary. This revealed ambition surprised Watanabe Manyumi.
After the conversation started, the two people began to talk freely again, and everything they talked about was centered around this common goal band.
When we arrived in Tokyo, it was already late at night. After getting off the expressway, Shinichi Iwahashi asked Watanabe Manyumi: "Where is your home?"
Watanabe Manyubi reported an address in the direction of Yotsuya.
