369. Word of Mouth Effect

(Two chapters in one chapter)

After Nanshaori retired from marriage, he did not put everything related to his idol into a box like Yamaguchi Momoe. After adding three locks, he had to sink to the bottom of the sea again, just to say a complete farewell.

When I was bored with my children, I played with tickets as a lyricist, and did not deliberately avoid my idol career. Relatively speaking, my relationship with the artistic world is not so clear.

After retiring, CBS Sony took care of various copyright affairs during her idol period. A while ago, Nanshaori received a call from the staff responsible for her retirement affairs and told her that a new idol was planning to cover her debut song "17 Years Old".

She didn't take it much to heart. To put it bluntly, the staff's phone call was just telling her that such a thing happened. Although it involved re-adaptation, the songwriter of the song was really required to seek consent.

For Nansaori, his former songs are now covered by unknown new idols, which is not something that needs to be treated solemnly.

Later, Mori Takashi Chiri's single was released. Out of courtesy, Warner Pioneer also delivered the finished product of this single to Nansaori, lyricist Arima Mieko and composer Tsukimi Kyohei through CBS Sony.

After receiving the single, Nanshaori listened to it and the song was adapted into a popular style nowadays, and there was no trace of the past.

When Nanshaori first heard such a strange "17 Years Old", it was a bit difficult for Nanshaori to accept, and she truly felt that her past idol career was covered by a new era.

However, such a strange "17 Years Old" and the familiar "17 Years Old" feel that this is no longer an era of her own, there is also a real feeling that the current era is derived from her past era.

Can my old songs still collide with the current popularity?

Nanshaori doesn't like Mori Takara's cover, but it cannot be denied that this is a unique cover.

After listening to it, Nanshaori put away the single.

As a result, after a while, the cover of "17 Years Old" suddenly became a topic. Even the staff in charge of CBS Sony called her to tell her that because Mori Takara's cover response was enthusiastic, the version of Nansaori's original singer also attracted attention again. On the other side of the company, she also received a petition requesting to reprint her "17 Years Old".

"At the moment, Morikaku Chiri's covers will definitely become popular and become a popular trend that cannot be underestimated. Therefore, the company is also counting the record store and feedback from the audience, and considering reprinting your "17-year-old"." CBS Sony staff reported to Nanshaori.

After learning the news, Nanshaori was surprised.

Not only did the staff report such news to her, but she is already the eldest son of a primary school student. One day she returned home and told her that she heard her mother's songs on the school radio.

Unexpectedly, ten years after she retired, a cover song brought her past old songs to the point of making it popular. The old things bloomed beautiful flowers in the new era.

After coming from the era of the popular Immortal Idol, she was once a star that everyone is sought after by the whole country. I don’t know how many big scenes Nanshaori has seen. However, the attention she brought to her through a cover now makes her particularly touched, and even surpassed the limelight that was once watched by the whole country when she was a girl.

Through this cover, the audience turned their attention to her debut song. The audience would remember that she was 17 years old.

I also had a seventeen-year-old... When Nansaori thought of this, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

For Nanshaori, who is already a mother of three children and has become a housewife in middle age, this has to move her. As the old songs become popular, the audience's memories wake up, and her youth seems to have revived as well.

Becoming an idol and leaving behind her works will always preserve her youth.

Thinking of this, after her husband Kishi Shinoyama came home, she showed him the single. When she first received it, she just listened it and received the single aside.

When introducing this single to Kishinobu Shinoyama, Nansaori said to him, "I can now better understand the value of the photographer's job. It permanently freezes beautiful things and makes 'beauty' never disappear. It is an amazing job."

It is rare for his wife to express her opinions on Kishinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu Shinobu

Then, Kishinobu Shinoyama found out that his wife's feelings were not for no reason, but from a single covering her famous song.

After ten years of retirement and becoming a mother of three children, he still touched the shadow of youth. Nansaori felt that he had become younger again. Even Kishinobu Shinoyama saw this girlish expression and felt incredible.

Even when he reaches middle age, the part of Nanshaori's body that belongs to a girl has not been truly erased.

Realizing this, Kishinobu Shinoyama felt very proud. Cynthia, who once came from the south, married him and his marriage life did not wipe out her as a girl, which was undoubtedly a kind of affirmation to him.

In fact, Nanshaori's youth has always been there, but it has just fallen asleep, not "disappeared". Now, this cover single undoubtedly induces dreams and shadows about youth.

Nansaori thanked the person who made this single from the bottom of his heart, so he thought about writing a letter to the producer of the single and Chiri Mori who covered the song.

To write a letter, you must first confirm who the person who wrote the letter was. She found the words "Producer: Shinichi Iwahashi" on the record cover, and called the staff of CBS Sony to confirm that this was a single produced by Warner Pioneer for genzo.

"Iwahashi Shinichisang..."

Nanshaori wrote this name on the letter paper, and Kinobu Shinoyama also knew it.

Iwaki is not a very common surname. Today I came to shoot the cover of this band. The band members' surname is Iwaki. Iwaki and are also musicians. Kishinobu Shinoyama thought it was quite a coincidence, but he didn't say anything.

After a while, after the rest, the staff came over and called them. Shinichi Iwahashi picked up his head hood and put it on his head again. Miwa-chan smiled beside him and said, "Thank you, thank you for your hard work~"

The giraffe man who lost his feelings as soon as he put on a hoodie ignored her.

Say Yijun?

In this way, this person is called "Shinichi Iwahashi". Kishinobu Shino looked at it strangely. Is there really such a coincidence of duplicate name? Or is this Shishi Iwahashi Iwahashi Iwahashi?

As if no one was around Miwa-chan, she reached out to tidy up her hood for Shinichi Iwahashi. Masato Nakamura stood behind the two of them, put his hands on his hips, and looked at him with a smile, looking like he was not surprised.

Such a picture looks so harmonious.

Shinji Shin-chan thought and raised his camera to freeze the scene.

...

A few days later, Shinichi Iwahashi returned to Kawasaki's office and found a strange letter from the stack of letters sent by the clerk.

"Iwahashi San, thank you for choosing this song and giving it a brand new color. I sincerely look forward to you that you can bring more excellent works in the future."

Such a text message expressing gratitude is signed by Nanshaori.

The letter was not sent by Nanshaori herself, but was written by her and handed over to the staff of CBS Sony. Then, she sent genzo through CBS Sony. This is a relatively standard practice of "going to the table without having private relationships".

The top idol of the previous generation personally wrote a thank you letter to him. Shinichi Iwahashi was surprised, but he also truly realized how popular Mori Takaraki's single is now.

Otherwise, the letter would not have been written before, but was written now.

Famous singers have people covering their famous songs every year, but few of them are worthy of attention from the main person. It is undoubtedly a kind of affirmation to receive a thank-you letter from Nansaori himself, whether it is from the quality of the song itself or the popularity brought by the song.

The next day, Shinichi Iwahashi arrived at Warner Pioneer and participated in the song selection for Mori Takashi's next single. Mori Takashi herself also attended the song selection. He followed Shinichi Iwahashi's previous instructions and brought her filled-in lyrics over.

The route of the next single has been decided, and the style is still European dance style. After finally gaining attention through the adaptation of "17 Years Old", the rash transformation will only lead to a fall.

The same thing is said, knocking off bricks and replacing them is better than pushing down a wall in one breath.

At the music selection meeting, the lyrics filled in by Mori Takashi were also placed on the conference table and included in the discussion scope. Compared to when Iwahashi Shinichi took over, Mori Takashi made obvious progress in lyrics.

After confirming the sales method of giving up the powerful and adding points from scratch, Morikatsu's mentality was also calm, leaving room for self-examination.

Compared to the eagerness to show the lyrics to be confirmed at the beginning, the lyrics written by Morikao Chiri now seem much more peaceful.

Compared to how to "display herself", she began to pay more attention to what she wanted to express and the theme she wanted to describe. Although she was still immature, she already had the awareness of building her own lyrics and worldview.

This is undoubtedly a good sign. Similarly, after being enlightened, it is obvious that Morikazuo’s talent as a lyricist is able to realize his own problems and correct them in a better way.

A few lyrics made people from Warner Pioneer look at them and they also find it quite remarkable. Of course, it is not enough to use them as the mainstay of the new single, but it is not good if it is a C/W song or an album song.

The music selection meeting ended and the conference room was out. Morikatsu Chiri and his agent were waiting to say hello to Shinichi Iwahashi. Kawashima seemed to be the same at any time, "Iwahashi San, Morikatsu will ask you next."

Being an agent is such a job that requires keeping his head down and saying good things. Shinichi Iwahashi himself is also an agent, so he is used to it. He politely greeted Kawashima, and then he turned his eyes to Mori Takarachi who looked expectant.

Her expression almost wrote "I have something to say to you" on her face.

"Iwaki Sang."

Mori Takara finally got the chance to speak, "I received a handwritten letter from Nansha Orisan himself."

"Yeah?"

"Nansa Orisan said that he likes the version I sing and cheers on me. He is such a gentle star." Mori Takara Chiri was encouraged by the main host, flattered and satisfied.

Nanshaori wrote letters to the producer and singer separately, and he was indeed interested. But now, no matter who it is, it seems to be the icing on the cake, because the hot sales situation has long proved everything.

In the new week, the record sales situation was counted. At the same time, both Warner Pioneer and Morikao’s firm were reporting the same thing.

"...Then will be the sales status of Mori Takashi's single "17 Years Old"." Mori Takashi's direct agent said.

Yamauchi Kenichi is still sitting here today, waiting to listen to the sales of Mori Takara Chiri's single. Since he was sent to contact Kawahata Yoshiichiro, he has been particularly concerned about the sales of this single.

As the single's performance gets better and better, Yamauchi's attention has also changed from "Is your own efforts in vain" to "I want to see how far this single can reach."

"CD, lp, and cassettes sold a total of 27,000, which once again set a new record since its debut, won the eighth place on the rankings, and it was also the first time she entered the top 10 since her debut."

It’s really exciting news to score in top 10 for the first time!

The report with victory continued, "... On the cable broadcast side, Morigasan's singles on-demand number, won the fifth place on the on-demand list, and was the singer with the fastest jump in recent times."

There is nothing more, it is more comfortable than sitting aside and listening to the good news. Yamauchi thought.

It took me more than half a year to go from being a floppy idol to entering the top 10, and this time was not long.

The three singles after the transformation are gradually progressing, first transforming through the first two, and then using the cover of famous songs as a sign to make a name for themselves. Each step is planned and the expectations are accurately completed.

Although Yamauchi Kenichi had never seen Shinichi Iwahashi and did not know where this producer came from, he developed an unknown trust in him because of this beautiful transformation plan.

The source of this trust may also be related to the current report on Morika Qianli's impressive achievements. For example, when he was on a blind date, he had a good impression of the other party, but there was a matchmaker who always said good things to the other party.

Water can cook porridge and also push the boat.

The boat slowly floated over and floated in front of Jianyi, a mountain.

As soon as Yamauchi heard the report, he thought to himself that this Iwahashi Sang production idol seems to be quite good. The company is preparing to launch it and has assigned a newcomer directly under him. Can you consider asking this Iwahashi Sang to be a producer?

Although his fame is not as good as that of those well-known big-name producers, his methods are very beautiful and he also has his own ideas.
