The short-haired girl holding two cups of hot coffee in front of her has a delicate face and deep eyes. She is wearing a black sweatshirt, a black hat and a slightly whitish light blue denim jacket. She looks casual, fashionable and crisp.
"First time we meet, I am Keiko Kanda."
Kanda Keiko handed a cup of coffee to Takakura Bunta.
"Hello, I'm Bunta Takakura."
Bunta Takakura took the coffee and carefully looked at the handsome short-haired beauty in neutral attire in front of him.
Her short hair is as sharp as a blade, and her eyes are like a frozen lake in winter, calm and deep.
The facial features of Kanda Keiko are like a piece of finely cut obsidian, which is both textured and mysterious.
These are two completely different styles from Nakamori Akina.
Red roses and white roses.
No wonder Kondo Masahiko, this kid, FMD, wants to have both...
…………
Faced with such a top producer who has created a legendary singer, Bunta Takakura stopped pretending and showed off his cards.
He said that he did not know music theory and composed music, he just came up with the lyrics and hummed the melody...
Kanda Keiko was not surprised. She was no longer a fledgling producer.
Sony Records receives tens of thousands of singers sending samples every year, and there are also many "purely talented" players like Bunta Takakura.
Kanda Keiko asked Takakura Bunta to sing the lyrics and melody in her heart.
She wanted to confirm the "ultra-wide vocal range" ability recommended by her university alumnus Koichi Takano over the phone.
…………………………
The sun is shining brightly at night
Like the sun breaking through the dark night
The night is bright and clear, the sky is clear and the sky is clear.
Dawn quietly crosses the horizon
…………
New しい岚が出こっているのに、どうして立ちstop まることができようか.
A new storm has emerged, how can we stand still?
Time and space is super, full strength, full strength, private space
Travel through time and space and try your best, I will come to you
…………
梦は远くない
Dreams come true will not be far away
The courage to go out and the front to go in
Have the courage to move forward firmly
Miracles are inevitable
A miracle will definitely happen
…………
"The quality of the song is good, not inferior to V6's "Take Me Higher""
"Well, the amazing ultra-wide sound range, perfect control of bass and high notes, as if there is no limit."
"The tone is very good and the breath is stable, not inferior to those of veteran singers."
In her heart, Kanda Keiko has already classified Takakura Bunta and his "Miracle Reappearance" into the final round of theme song selection.
This is still the case when Bunta Takakura used it mechanically and directly changed the Chinese songs to Japanese to sing, resulting in a decline in the quality of the songs.
…………
Another reason why he couldn't make a decision directly on the spot was that Bunta Takakura's appearance was too tough and his music theory foundation was too poor.
These two completely different styles are completely different from the popular Johnny idol trainees with "danmei caricature faces", long-term intensive training, and sunny freshness that are mainstream in the market today.
South Korea, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and even Asia's largest market, Longguo, have begun to popularize the "Kimura Takuya" style of soft male idols.
Bunta Takakura is a male singer with a wide vocal range and a tough appearance.
If it were the 1970s, Takakura Bunta could have established a foothold in the music scene with songs such as "Spring in the North Country" and "True Red Sun".
But that was the previous version of the story.
Now Takakura Bunta's comprehensive conditions are actually a negative factor for Sony's overseas record promotion work.
…………………………
Keiko Kanda looked at Bunta Takakura who was chatting with the tuner, feeling conflicted in her heart.
When Takakura Bunta was confirming the tune of "Miracle Reappearance" with the sound engineer, he hummed a few words in Chinese, which interested Kanda Keiko.
Knowing that Bunta Takakura actually knew a foreign language, Keiko Kanda asked him to sing it again in Chinese.
Bunta Takakura: "Just like the sun breaks through the night, the dawn quietly crosses the horizon... A new storm has appeared, how can it stand still..."
Kanda Keiko: "This standard and fluent foreign language..."
Kanda Keiko, who had gone to Longguo for exchange and inspection, decided on the spot.
Bunta Takakura's "Miracle Reappearance" is used as the theme song of the mainland version of "Ultraman Tega".
…………
After the RB market bubble, economic growth completely stagnated, and the local stock market was already a red sea of involution and death.
Expanding the market overseas is a strategic necessity for every RB record company.
In the 1980s, with the rise of the Four Asian Tigers, a large number of RB music companies began to train singers, learn Cantonese, Korean, and Hokkien, and try to develop in South Korea, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia and other places...
Now in the honeymoon period between China and Japan, Asia's largest music market is fully open. This is a battleground for global record companies.
Takakura Bunta, who was fluent in Chinese, immediately impressed Kanda Keiko.
…………
Completed the recording and contract signing of the theme song for the mainland version of "Ultraman Tiga".
Bunta Takakura left the recording studio, lit a Peace cigarette, and sighed:
"You have to learn foreign languages... It's good to learn one more..."
…………………………
These days, Takakura Bunta has already had preliminary ideas for future plans.
He does not intend to make the career of a singer his main career.
He couldn't even figure out the music score and had zero knowledge of music theory.
Just looking at those tadpoles makes me feel sleepy and want to drink...
Therefore, Bunta Takakura regards singing as a side job to become famous and make money, and to accumulate capital.
…………
Based on information gathered from Kanda Keiko and the recording studio staff.
In this dark parallel world, countries have very strict copyright systems and have strict restrictions on the use of theme music.
The Eastern country, which has become the largest entertainment market in Asia, has a copyright protection system and enforcement capabilities that are not inferior to RB's local copyright protection system.
This is the most important reason why TBS TV station, Bandai Co., Ltd., and Tsuburaya Co., Ltd. took the initiative to contact Magic TV and sign a TV series introduction agreement a generation earlier than in the previous life.
…………
According to the Universal Convention for the Protection of Copyright:
The melody of theme songs used by commercial venues, large-scale events, and even toys must be shared with the copyright owner.
Countries also have a guaranteed share for creators, which is generally 1% to 4.5%, and RB is 5.1%.
This prevents record companies from wiping out singer-songwriters through overbearing terms in an agreement.
Follow the rules of this dark world.
A popular and long-lasting classic song is equivalent to raising a cow that provides a steady stream of cash flow.
…………………………
After smoking a cigarette, Takakura Bunta decided to release a few more singles if he had the opportunity in the future to promote the speed of primitive accumulation of capital.
In this way, his plan to open a store can be put on the schedule earlier.
"This dark parallel world where R-rated movies are unprecedentedly prosperous and occupies 94.2% of the entertainment market."
"The main contradiction is the contradiction between the growing number of R-rated movies and the backward toy product supply chain."
"For example, the new resin material used by Bandai was used by Original Time and Space on the 1985 TENGA co-branded black wood fragrance flight cup."
"In this world, it had to wait until 11 years later in 1996, when it was developed by Bandai Co., Ltd. and used this material for the first time in Captain Megumi's big butt mold."
Bunta Takakura put out his cigarette butt and edited his idea for opening a store on Nokia's newly developed "memo function".
In addition to being an era ahead of the industry development.
Bunta Takakura also has a unique and far-leading core capability, which serves as a moat for getting involved in the toy industry.
