231 The Otakuman's Money Is Really Good
To be honest, seeing this underground idol group with almost no fame in later generations performing their original songs on a simple stage, Lin Junxiu really felt the power of Japan in the idol industry and music industry.
Of course, this prosperity is based on the country's strict protection of copyright.
In Japan, you can really make a fortune by writing songs. Think about how much money Makihara Noriyuki made from "The Only Flower in the World". Some people may say that this is an isolated case, but in Japan you really only need to write a song.
It was the first No. 1 song on the Oricon Chart. Buying yourself a Ferrari supercar back then was definitely not a dream. Looking back at China, how many of Gao Xiaosong, one of the top music creators in the mainland, make a living from their music works?
Even when Gao Xiaosong talked about the domestic original music scene in the 1990s, he also revealed a sad reality, that is, the genuine companies have to beg the pirate companies everywhere. You can steal it later! At least give our genuine companies a way to survive! Otherwise, you will all be dead in the future.
No more stealing.
Although the songs sung by these underground idol groups sound too "mass-produced" to the musicians, that is, they are very "slobbery" songs, they are also original music.
Just like online novels, even the most unpopular Japanese entertainment themes are available on asxs. If they are well written, like "Absolute Ichiban", they will make a lot of money; if they are not well written, like "Absolute Ichiban"
"Niyu's Magnificent Counterattack" was a hit. But at least, everyone still has something to eat. As for whether you want to eat a Manchu-Han banquet or a street box lunch, it all depends on your craftsmanship.
A normal and mature industry must not only ensure that outstanding employees make a fortune, but also ensure that less outstanding employees can survive starvation after reaching the industry threshold.
But just when Lin Junxiu lamented that the Japanese idol industry was about to become a public knowledge and praise Japan, he suddenly saw two of his gay friends frantically shopping for goods in the simple product display cabinet. Then they paid for photos with each young lady.
He took N photos and happily invited Lin Junxiu to come with him from time to time.
Suddenly Lin Junxiu's sigh disappeared, and he silently complained in his heart, "Steamed Goose Heart". That's right! The real idol industry is actually "cutting leeks", and it has nothing to do with the music industry!
On the way back, Higashino Yusuke and Saijo Kaede carried the "limited edition handbag" given by the idol group, which was filled with various "idol peripherals" that were low-cost but sold at such amazing prices that the actual profits were even higher than those of top luxury brands.
Seeing the excitement of the two teenagers, Lin Junxiu knew that these two people had transformed into "idol nerds". In the imaginable future, they would spend money on the idol in their hearts, only hoping that she would always be bright and beautiful.
Standing on the stage. If possible, they will mobilize more teenagers to pave a flowery road to the Budokan for this idol! As for whether the two teenagers will live on ramen in the coming days,
Lin Junxiu still believes in the depth of these two people's pockets.
Even though they come from a relatively remote place in Japan, one of them owns a ranch and the other owns a fleet, so they are definitely not poor people. In fact, the more top universities there are, the more wealthy and wealthy people there are.
The more elites there are. A very cruel reality is that if the state does not heavily subsidize education, then education must be the most luxurious consumer product in human history.
The greatness of Confucius is not that he founded Confucianism, but that he promoted elite education to mass education. However, the Chinese did not truly realize universal education until the founding of New China. When Lin Junxiu’s passion in his previous life was not extinguished,
, once complained on the Internet that he really hoped that those students who think about "big health care" every day in college would have their national education subsidies revoked. When you are so poor that you can't even afford to go to college, you probably won't do it every day.
I was filled with warm thoughts there.
Two flowers bloomed and the performance was over. The three members of d new- were taking the train back to the agency's headquarters. Although they were extremely tired, they still had to maintain their energetic and cute image in public. At the same time, they did not
If you dare to talk or make any small moves on the train, idols are like people above the clouds, so ordinary people must keep their distance.
Fortunately, the company's headquarters is not far away. When the three of them could hardly hold on any longer, they finally arrived at the station near the headquarters. Carrying their own luggage, the three of them quickly got off the bus and walked through, accompanied by their agent.
Station, heading towards the company headquarters. Although it is a brokerage company, there are not many brokerage companies of this size in Tokyo.
Fortunately, our company still has some qualifications, so we still have a fairly small office in Roppongi, Minato City. After the three of them came back, they held a reflection meeting in the conference room and were finally announced to be able to get off work.
After all, d new- is not a famous group. It has been in the second generation since its establishment, but it still has not made a name for itself. Even ordinary stage performances are not available for them, so they can only hang out on the streets.
That’s all.
Even the underground idols are of the third or sixth grade. The best underground idols have even become idols. They can appear in some local TV programs and are basically waiting for a chance to become popular and become mainstream from underground.
The second-tier underground idols have a fixed opportunity to perform on stage, and they are basically the finale or main star of the performance stage; the lower-level idols need to perform on stage everywhere, but at least they can also be a warm-up guest.
, which can be regarded as a place with a relatively fixed income; the last one is similar to d new-, which can only perform on the street, and it is good to occupy a performance site for a relatively long time.
"Oh, when will the company arrange a car to pick us up?" Mari Yamagishi, one of the members, couldn't help but muttered and complained. "We don't want that luxurious nanny car, just an ordinary car.
Okay. Every time I finish a performance, I feel really tired."
"If one day we can perform on a national stage, there will be a luxurious nanny car waiting for us." The team leader and a legacy member of the previous generation of C.T.D - Mirai Kikuchi said expressionlessly.
Compared to Yamagishi Mari, Kikuchi Mirei has seen through the idol industry. When she was young and ignorant and couldn't read, she thought that she would be able to have a career in the idol circle with her beauty, and then return to her hometown after becoming famous.
The little sisters showed off. But to this day, their savings still seem to be zero, right?
Of course, there are not opportunities to get rich overnight. A photo company, a so-called film production company, approached me and hoped that I could shoot water photos or soft pron videos, but I refused. I remember when the producer who lobbied me left.
He handed his business card to himself, promising that he would need it one day, but he accidentally kept it.
The consequence of the development of the idol industry in Japan is that countless teenagers and girls come in every year with dreams, but in the end, there is a possibility that only one in 10,000 will succeed. Most of them choose to return to ordinary life when they reach age.
When your children reach the age of admiring idols, they may think of that period of their lives in their dreams at midnight, right?
Naturally, there are also some people who are used to seeing the lavish life in the entertainment industry and are reluctant to leave. In the end, there are many people who choose to make small movies. Everyone always only sees the most beautiful people at the top of the pyramid, but they never see the bottom of the pyramid.
Many of the countless fallen corpses had weathered into withered bones.
"Mai-chan, one of the three boys today seems to be interested in you." Yamagishi Mari turned around and said to the girl who was silently removing her makeup and preparing to change her daily makeup. "It's been a long time since I've had such generous fans. Our fans today are
The sales volume should be good. Unfortunately, the most handsome one is not interesting to us. But, since I am so handsome, his girlfriend must be no worse than us, right?"
"Where are the handsome guys? I think you are just imagining it, right?" Although Oshima Mai doesn't like to talk when the group is private, she is not stupid enough to refuse to interact with her teammates completely. No matter what the real relationship is, after all, we are working together.
As partners in business, the relationship should be maintained. Mixed groups are so hard, and it often depends on the attitude and mood of teammates.
"That's the boy wearing glasses, a mask, and an inconspicuous jumper. I guess he should be 185 centimeters tall, right? If my boyfriend was that tall, I would wake up laughing in my dreams." Mari Yamagishi is very serious.
replied.
"That way I can be seen as handsome by you?" Oshima Mai joked with a smile.
After Yamagishi Mari's reminder, she also recalled that this person was here. But he was wearing a pair of dull black-rimmed glasses and a black mask covering most of his face. How could he look handsome?
"That man must not be simple." Mirai Kikuchi was also prompted to remember, "His jumper is enough for our living expenses for a month! I remember that a senior I knew was dating a big shot in the circle.
Once upon a time, that big shot gave her a set of clothes like this. Because the price she told me was scary, I remembered its brand."
Of course, Lin Junxiu didn't know that d new- was discussing himself. He thought that he was low-key enough and would not attract attention. But Lin Junxiu didn't expect that the so-called "street style" clothes his team bought for him were actually
They are the works of some cutting-edge designers in Japan. These works are very popular in small circles, and the prices are not cheap.
Lin Junxiu was surprised that he could meet a future member of AKB48 while walking around in Tokyo, that is, Mai Oshima, who is currently active as a d new-member. Mai Oshima is a person who comes and goes in the AKB48 group.
, but she only missed one audition before graduation, so her popularity in the group is pretty good.
Even after graduation, because I signed up for Horipro, I still had enough resources for subsequent development. But I didn’t become popular, so I can only say that Xiaohong relied on promotion, and Big Red relied on life.
Now that Mai Oshima has appeared, that fat guy Yasushi Akimoto must have had the idea of conceiving AKB48, right? If nothing else happens, Yasushi Akimoto is now running a high school girl duo called Presumptive Girls. In August last year
At that time, this group made a successful debut with the single "しょうちのすけ". Since this single was the fourth ED song of the popular cartoon "One Piece", this group was considered to be at its peak after their debut.
Although they are a high school girl group, they have obviously inherited the bad habits of Akimoto Yasushi's "Kitten Club". They wear student uniforms and frequently show their underwear to the audience during performances, which really makes the TV station collapse; and since they are taking the high school girl route
, please don’t always show off bikini looks! In short, Yasushi Akimoto will ruin the image of Japanese high school girls.
It's a pity that Presumed Girls did attract attention through various topics, but they never had many masterpieces in terms of musical works, so the group persisted until 2006 and then disbanded. In fact, the group's second anniversary was in 2003, when they debuted
It was already on the verge of death. It was just that Yasushi Akimoto refused to give up at that time, so it was postponed until 2006.
After the sixth single was released in 2003, three DVD singles were released in succession during the New Year's Eve period from 2004 to 2005, draining all their remaining value. The so-called DVD singles were actually
There are more "watching" contents than "listening" contents. Considering the girls' style, we all know why some people still buy their DVD singles.
It's a pity that even if there is a group of fans with special tastes, they can't support one DVD a month, right? Sister Wu × Lan wasn't so dedicated back then, so idols like you who just play around with things don't have to work so hard, right? So in everyone's
