Chapter 135 AKB First Composer?
Already fantasizing about Kiyoshi Sakamoto, Yasushi Akimoto, who is his artiste, he no longer knows that he is completely distracted.

At this time.

"Akimoto-san? What do you think of this piece?" Kiyoshi Sakamoto's sudden question awakened Yasushi Akimoto who was thinking like a dream.

"What am I thinking, he is Sony's baby, how could he fall into my hands, where did he think..." Qiu Yuankang laughed at himself in his heart, and then turned his eyes to the person sitting opposite Sakamoto Kiyoshi.

"Well, it's very well written. I think it's perfect. I heard that your lyrics are also very good. Have you thought about how to write lyrics for this song?" Akimoto Yasushi suddenly thought of the lyrics writing skills of the young man in front of him. , is also not to be underestimated.

Therefore, Akimoto Yasushi also asked a little teasingly.

"Eh? Fill in the lyrics? Actually..." Sakamoto Kiyoshi suddenly felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.

"Well, what? Actually what?" Seeing his embarrassed look, Qiu Yuankang was also a little curious.

"In fact, I have a habit of composing. Generally, when composing songs, I will fill in the lyrics for the ones I like. So I also brought the lyrics version of this song. Please give me some pointers." Sakamoto Qing explained.

"Oh, is that so? Bring it here and let me have a look." As a lyricist, Akimoto Yasushi also wanted to know what kind of lyrics Sakamoto Kiyoshi filled in for this song.

What's the difference with your own?
This is also a good habit of Yasushi Akimoto when learning to write lyrics: for the same piece of music, compare the lyrics written by himself and others to see what is different.

So, Kiyoshi Sakamoto took out another score that was exactly the same from his backpack, the difference was that the score was filled with lyrics.

That's right, the lyrics above are the lyrics of the original version of "Sakura Petals". Kiyoshi Sakamoto "copied" it directly, without missing a word.

It's not that he didn't think about changing it, it's Yasushi Akimoto's lyrics for this song, it's so perfect, Kiyoshi Sakamoto can't find anything to change it, at least for him now, he can't find it.

Akimoto Yasushi took it, and started to read the lyrics.

"Beside the window in the classroom, the clear sunlight is silent"

"Few Left, Spring Calendar"

Well, the beginning is quite good. Judging from the title of the song "Petals of Cherry Blossom" and the second line "There are not many left, the calendar of spring", this should be a graduation-themed song.

Yasushi Akimoto read the first two lines of the lyrics, and quickly recognized the theme of the song. He deserves to be the best lyricist for the Neon girl group.

He then looked down.

"When I was in class, everyone I saw was wearing the same uniform"

"Such a companion looks like an adult"

. . .

The climax of a song usually appears in the chorus, and this song "Cherry Blossom Petals" is no exception.

"When the little petals of the cherry blossoms bloom, somewhere the bell of hope rings across the earth"

"Give us freedom and courage for tomorrow"

"When the little petals of the cherry blossoms bloom, someone must be praying somewhere"

"The door to a new world, open with your own hands"

After seeing the chorus part, Akimoto Yasushi suddenly put the sheet music on the table.

Sakamoto Kiyoshi has been staring at Akimoto Yasushi all the time, just now, he was thinking in his heart.

"When Feiqiu was young, I heard that he was handsome, so why did he get so fat? Is it because he has money, power, and women, so he doesn't pay attention to his figure anymore? Terrible, I decided, Never become like this!!!”

Therefore, when Yasushi Akimoto put the sheet music on the table at once, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was frightened half to death, thinking that he was like Ogawa Shin, who spoke out what was in his heart. . .

However, Akimoto Yasushi's next words made him turn from frightened to surprised.

"I don't think I need to write lyrics for this song." Akimoto Yasushi said this very flatly.

"Eh? Akimoto-san, what do you mean?" Sakamoto Kiyoshi vaguely knew what Akimoto Yasushi meant, but he couldn't believe that Akimoto Yasushi would do this.

"Is this a graduation song?" Yasushi Akimoto didn't directly answer Kiyoshi Sakamoto's question, but started talking about the song.

"Well, yes." Sakamoto Kiyoshi was a little puzzled, but still answered seriously.

"The lyrics and music you wrote are great, and the theme fits the theme "Sakura" I proposed to you last time. Since the lyrics and music are so perfect, I don't need to mix them up. This song, just Well, the composition and lyrics are all yours."

"Eh???" Although Kiyoshi Sakamoto guessed it, he was still a little confused when he heard the news from Yasushi Akimoto.

"Didn't you say that this is a song we co-created? Now the melody and lyrics are all written by me, so..." Kiyoshi Sakamoto was at a loss.

This "Cherry Blossom Petals" is AKB's first self-made underground single, and it is also the first song of the Sakura series. It has a very high status in the history of AKB.

Because this is a song with the theme of graduation, when AKB members graduate, they will play this song at the graduation scene as the BGM.

This is also one of the few AKB Divine Comedy that Kiyoshi Sakamoto remembers from his previous life.

It is precisely because of the uniqueness of this song that Sakamoto Kiyoshi chose to release this song in order to leave his own mark on this AKB. Sakamoto Kiyoshi believes that as long as he asks AKB to sing this song Yasushi Akimoto would definitely not object.

In this way, Kiyoshi Sakamoto can justifiably take out the AKB Divine Comedy that he remembers one by one, so that AKB can rely more on himself in terms of music.

Because only in this way, Kiyoshi Sakamoto can control part of the right to speak, such as music production and MV production.

This is Kiyoshi Sakamoto's plan. Since it is impossible to get the right to operate, it is a good choice to get the right to speak about music. After all, AKB is always an idol girl group, and it will definitely release a record.

Of course, it is impossible to attribute all the music production to him. Kiyoshi Sakamoto does not ask much, as long as he can become the first composer above the three pillars of AKB composition, that is enough.

As for the lyrics, let Yasushi Akimoto, anyway, he writes hundreds of lyrics a year, it is very easy.

However, Yasushi Akimoto said directly: I will not write lyrics for this song, you can do it.

Sakamoto Kiyoshi didn't know what to do for a moment. . .

Fortunately, Akimoto Yasushi was well prepared.

"It's okay, since this song is so well written, and you are the future music producer of Akihabara 48, otherwise, let this song be sung by Akihabara 48!"

Hearing these words, Kiyoshi Sakamoto realized that Fei Qiu was digging a hole here, waiting for him to jump in. . .

First, let Kiyoshi Sakamoto come up with a piece of music to test his creative skills;
Then I saw that his skills were very good, so I thought, it’s okay; but when Kiyoshi Sakamoto turned against the army, Kiyoshi Sakamoto took out the original lyrics directly, and Fei Qiu didn’t even have the chance to write lyrics , because the lyrics and the song are too well matched, Akimoto Yasushi still can't give a reason to refute, so he can only suffer from this dumbness;
But Jiang is still old and hot, Akimoto Yasushi thought, since you have written the song and lyrics, then okay, just send it to AKB to sing.

The final result is that the song "Petals of Cherry Blossoms" composed by Sakamoto Kiyoshi was directly used by Akimoto Yasushi for AKB to sing in the future.

Although Kiyoshi Sakamoto originally wanted to work with Akimoto Yasushi, and the song he made was for AKB, but active giving and passive giving are two completely different concepts! ! !

However, there is no way, the right to write the lyrics of this song by Akimoto Yasushi is given to Sakamoto Kiyoshi, it is impossible for Sakamoto Kiyoshi to say "Hey, this song cannot be sung by AKB", in that case, Sakamoto Kiyoshi may be Akimoto Kang directly kicked out. . .

You know, Yasushi Akimoto valued the right to write lyrics more than any music creator.

This is also because the copyright income is too huge.

In Neon, karaoke is an important source of income for singers and musicians. A single with a sales volume of one million can basically bring millions to tens of millions of dollars to a composer or lyricist every year. Income of tens of millions of yen.

This is why Yasushi Akimoto has always controlled the right to write lyrics for AKB, because every time an album and single is sold, and every time a karaoke is sung, as a lyricist, he can get a share of the money.

"Well, it's up to you to decide. After all, I am also the music producer of Akihabara 48. It is my duty to contribute to the organization." Kiyoshi Sakamoto replied in a doggy manner.

"Anyway, I copied the lyrics of this song from you, and now I will return it to the original owner, but I am sorry for the composing buddy, he is missing another song that can be divided into money." Kiyoshi Sakamoto I comforted myself in my heart.

"It's not entirely a bad thing for Sony to send this young man. After all, his musical talent will be very helpful at the start-up stage of Akihabara." Akimoto Yasushi saw that Kiyoshi Sakamoto agreed so readily, and he felt the same in his heart. Gave him a lot of points.

In this way, the first "infighting" between Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Yasushi Akimoto came to an end. . .

. . . . . .

After returning from AKS, Kiyoshi Sakamoto didn't have time to think too much, so he was pulled by Uncle Ishida to take photos for the album cover.

After Kiyoshi Sakamoto left, two people walked into Yasushi Akimoto's office.

If Sakamoto Kiyoshi is still here, he must be. . .Don't know these two people.

After all, Kiyoshi Sakamoto didn't pay much attention to the top management of AKB in his previous life, he just focused on Shenqi. . .

"Kang Zhi, Mr. Zhi, you are here." Qiu Yuankang also warmly greeted the two people who came in.

There are only two other AKB founders who can freely enter and leave Yasushi Akimoto's office in AKS and make him so enthusiastic.

Kubota Yasushi, Shiba Kotaro.
