Chapter 180 Board Meetings
For a moment, the entire conference room was silent.

The fat director of Tsuchiya was also frightened and stunned by Mr. Beichuan's sharp eyes and his slightly murderous words.

However, Naoki Kitagawa did not continue to pay attention to him, but looked around at the directors sitting in the conference room with his sharp eyes.

The directors present did not dare to take a breath.

After all, Naoki Kitagawa, as the representative director of Sony Records, has been in the company for a long time.

And in the past two years, after discovering the three supernovas with great potential, Sakamoto Kiyoshi, Ogawa Masaki, and Chiba Masaki, the company's earnings skyrocketed like a rocket.

Therefore, Naoki Kitagawa's voice in the board of directors is getting bigger and bigger, and the board of directors has gradually become the voice of the "Kitagawa faction".

The meeting of the board of directors was proposed by Kitagawa Naoki.

"I don't know if you are short-sighted, or you have lost money. I just saw the huge profits brought by Kiyoshi Sakamoto, and no one cared about his feelings."

"He came to see me today."

"Eh???"

Suddenly, there was a sound of surprise in the conference room.

Kitagawa Naoki continued, "He told me that he wanted to take a vacation for a while."

"Ehhhh?!!!"

Surprised again.

At this time, the directors felt more or less that the purpose of today's meeting of the board of directors should have a lot to do with Kiyoshi Sakamoto going to find Naoki Kitagawa today.

The directors couldn't figure out Naoki Kitagawa's attitude, so they had to quietly look at the expression on the face of the big brother Beichuan, hoping to get some information from it.

However, it is impossible for the old and refined Big Boss Beichuan to let them see what is in his heart so easily.

"I didn't agree to him on the spot. I just asked him to go back first and wait for my news."

"However, what he told me was not only the request for a vacation, but also the reasons for wanting a vacation."

The meeting room was very quiet, only the voice of Naoki Kitagawa echoed.

"He said that his body was very tired and he was reaching the limit."

"When I heard this sentence, my first reaction was not surprise, but distress."

Ok?
Hearing the words that Kitagawa Naoki said from his mouth, all the directors present were puzzled. They were all wondering whether they had heard it wrong.

"You heard me right, what I said is, distressed."

"Do you know what Kiyoshi Sakamoto is called by the media and the public?" Suddenly, Kitagawa Naoki asked.

However, before the directors could answer, he answered this, the question himself.

"They all refer to Sakamoto Kiyoshi as the little king of Sony."

"Do you know the meaning of this name? It means that both the public and the media believe that Kiyoshi Sakamoto is an important member of our Sony record company, and an extremely important artist!"

The volume of Kitagawa Naoki's voice is constantly increasing.

"However, in the eyes of the outside world, and in our eyes, such an important artist, you actually made him so tired that he fell asleep in the office of your own president?!"

!!!

At the end of the last sentence, "Fall asleep!!", Naoki Kitagawa suddenly raised the volume of his speech, which cheered up the people in the conference room.

"This is simply inexcusable!"

Snapped!
Kitagawa Naoki patted the table again.

"Such an important artist, who has created more than 150 billion economic benefits for the company, is actually being used by you so much that his body is almost unbearable?"

"Now, you still want him to accept more job announcements and earn more money?" When he said this, he glanced slightly out of the corner of his eyes, the fat director of the Tuwu who spoke just now.

Director Tsuchiya, who was glanced at by Naoki Kitagawa, also trembled suddenly, and the sweat kept streaming down his forehead.

"asshole!"

"Fool!"

"People who propose like this are not qualified to appear here at all!"

Following the appearance of these words, at this time, all the directors turned their attention to Director Tsuchiya.

Snapped!
Director Tsuchiya, who was already drenched in sweat, took his seat facing Naoki Kitagawa under the eyes of all the directors in the conference room.

"Private Marseille! I shouldn't have said those words just now, I know I was wrong, please forgive me."

Dogeza is a Japanese etiquette, that is, apologizing or petitioning with five bodies.

In ancient times, it was used to express humility to noble people. In modern times, it is generally used to express the deepest apology or sincere request.

Of course, at this time, the director of Tsuchiya made the doge seat, which proved that he was apologizing for the brainless speech just now.

Directors, when they saw the Tsuchiya director kneeling on the ground, expressing apology, the air in the entire conference room suddenly became solemn.

Naoki Kitagawa stared closely at first, and the director of Tsuchiya, who was seated at Dogeta, didn't ask him to get up immediately, but waited for about 20 seconds before he spoke.

"Get up, don't make such a brainless speech on the board of directors next time."

"Do you understand?!"

"Yes!"

Hearing Naoki Kitagawa's words, Tsuchiya seemed to be pardoned. After agreeing, he immediately got up from the ground and sat back on his seat.

"Now, is there any objection to Kiyoshi Sakamoto's vacation?"

Silent.

Kitagawa Naoki frowned, and when he saw that no one raised any objections, he relaxed a little.

"Then let's break up the meeting."

"Yes!"

The directors responded to Naoki Kitagawa's words with neat answers, as if they were showing their loyalty. . .

. . . . . .

March tenth.

Two days have passed since the day when Sakamoto Kiyoshi went to see Big Brother Beichuan and said he wanted to take a vacation.

Within 10 minutes after that board meeting, Kiyoshi Sakamoto received a call from Director Yamada.

"Sakamoto-kun, your leave request has been approved."

In the past two days, recalling how excited I was when I received a call from Yamada Yuichi that day, Sakamoto Kiyoshi felt that he was so stupid. . .

However, he did not forget to go to the president's office again, and bowed deeply to Big Brother Beichuan to thank him.

And Big Boss Beichuan also accepted his bow with a smile on his face.

In this way, Kiyoshi Sakamoto got a half-year vacation.

That's right, half a year.

This is the vacation time that Naoki Kitagawa decided after careful consideration after Sakamoto Kiyoshi would go to Tokyo University to study.

For half a year, you can freely do what you want, and you can also go to rest or travel freely, and you can do whatever you want with Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

In the past six months, Kiyoshi Sakamoto will not run announcements, release records, and will not appear on TV shows.

However, in all of this, Sakamoto Kiyoshi can officially enter the holiday after THE SUN band releases its first album.

Therefore, in order for Kiyoshi Sakamoto to have a holiday as soon as possible, Masaki Ogawa, Masaki Chiba, Yuichi Yamada, and Uncle Ishida all tried their best to make this band album as soon as possible.

And Sakamoto Kiyoshi has only one task, the most important task.

Select songs to put in an album.

Because it is the band's first album, the number of songs is different from Kiyoshi Sakamoto's solo album. This band's album has a total of [-] songs!

As usual, the first single "Flower" and several songs from the second single "PLANET" are put into this album.

Therefore, this album will contain all the songs of THE SUN band since their debut, as well as ten new songs.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's job is to select these ten songs from his own song library, as well as the creations of Masaki Ogawa and Masaki Chiba.

And the important title song.

This time, after discussion between Sakamoto Kiyoshi and Yamada Yuichi, the music director, this album decided to use two songs as the main songs.

A double hit album!
Of course, it’s a double hit, but it’s just one more MV, and when it’s on the Yinfan, the first wave of the title song will be released first, and the second wave of the title song will be released next time. The purpose of this is to attract attention. , Let more people pay attention to this newly released album of THE SUN band.

After much deliberation and a review of his secret notebook, Kiyoshi Sakamoto chose two title songs for the album.

One is "Lei" and the other is "Sakura".

"Lei" is the most successful song of the group "Kekukola". It was released in 2007 and is the theme song of the Japanese drama "Tokyo Tower".

This song has been praised as the best elegy in Japan in the 21st century, and it has also become one of the most famous songs in the history of Japanese music.

And "Sakura", the song with the name of a bad street song, is not the famous spring and graduation season song "Sakura" by Naotaro Moriyama, but the song of the same name by the group "FUNKY MONKEY BABYS".

This song is a single released by the group "FUNKY MONKEY BABYS" in 2009.

This song was also adapted into a Chinese version by a heavenly singer in Baodao, called "You Are My OK Bounce".

Why did you choose these two songs, you ask?

"Lei" is because Kiyoshi Sakamoto believes that this song was the song that won the 2007 Record Awards in its original history, and the quality and popularity of the song are the best.

Moreover, in order to be more in line with THE SUN band's singing style, Sakamoto Kiyoshi also plans to arrange this song, changing the original folk style to a rock style song. Dissipation can also make songs more acceptable to young listeners.

Kill two birds with one stone!
As for "Sakura", it is actually a rap song, similar to the song "Flower" when THE SUN band debuted, and it is not very suitable for release as a song of the band.

However, because Sakamoto Kiyoshi likes it very much, the emotions expressed in the lyrics of this song and the melody of the song are also very addictive, so after consideration, Sakamoto Kiyoshi chose this song as the first song in the album. The title song of the second wave.

By the way, Sakamoto Kiyane, Ogawa Masaki, and Chiba Masaki discussed the name of the album together, and finally came up with a very suitable name.

Since it is the first album of THE SUN band, let's just call it "THE SUN"!

There is no way, the three members of the band are all poor households. . .
