Reborn Japan for entertainment

Chapter 495 The First Step of Reform

It has to be said that Kiyoshi Sakamoto's talent in speech may be innate.

As long as he speaks, people will unconsciously concentrate and listen to his speech quietly.

Even, in many cases, as long as they hear his inflammatory words, people's emotions will change with his tone.

like now.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto on the podium was talking freely.

The people sitting in the meeting room also pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

"First of all, of course, it is the newcomer selection channel that our SMA is most proud of, the SMA selection meeting!"

However, when Sakamoto Kiyoshi said the words "proud", everyone heard a strong sense of ridicule from it.

"I don't deny that this is an important means for SMA to select potential newcomers to enter the company."

"but!"

"Compared with other large firms in the industry, the reputation of our SMA is not enough for us to attract new stars with more potential!"

In the final analysis, it is because the temple of SMA is too small.

After all, SMA's parent company is SMEJ, which focuses on music.

As an SMA with a background in music, he is still inexperienced, and he doesn't seem to be very familiar with film and television.

Even though, SMA held out a Kiyoshi Sakamoto. . .

Moreover, strictly speaking, the reason why Sakamoto Kiyoshi was able to become the head of SMA in just a few years, on the one hand, is because of SMA, there are really no commendable artists, and more because of his in the music world great achievement.

Rather than the influence in the film and television industry.

Therefore, in the past few years, the selection meeting of SMA can only be held after the selection meeting of other large brokerage firms.

It is to avoid the embarrassing situation of robbing newcomers with large firms such as Johnny's, Yanyin, HORIPRO, and Stardust. . .

Because, you can't grab them at all. . .

However, in this way, the selection meeting of SMA can only select some "inferior products" eliminated by large firms.

Although, Kiyoshi Sakamoto can use his future memory to sign some future stars into SMA in advance.

Just like Rena Nonen and Masaki Suda.

There is also an unstable channel: SMA's scouts.

Under the effect of the butterfly Kiyoshi Sakamoto, two future stars, Kento Yamazaki and Nana Komatsu, were excavated.

However, compared with Amuse, Stardust, HORIPRO and other firms, such a reserve of newcomers is still relatively weak.

A steady stream of outstanding newcomers is the foundation for the prosperity of a brokerage firm!
This is why, after Kiyoshi Sakamoto took over the operation of SMA, the first thing to reform was the selection meeting. . .

Only by being able to steadily recruit excellent and potential newcomers can the name of SMA gradually become famous in the industry.

"So, in the new operation plan, I plan to reform the SMA's annual selection meeting." Kiyoshi Sakamoto moved his finger, and the PPT on the screen continued to change, entering the relevant page of "SMA Selection Meeting".

"First of all, in order to let more people know about our SMA selection meeting, we can schedule the selection meeting from February to April every year."

"This time period happens to be the season when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, and the increase in outdoor activities has led to the maximization of our means of publicity..."

Advertisements, the Internet, newspapers, magazines, and leaflets can all be used as publicity channels for the audition.

When the overwhelming news about the "SMA Audition" bombarded the public, Kiyoshi Sakamoto did not believe that those young people who longed for the entertainment industry would not be tempted. . .

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's words, combined with the PPT on the screen, were easy to understand, and even the heads of some departments, as well as operation members, took out their small notebooks and began to record.

"Also, in order to get young people across the country to sign up for the SMA audition, I decided to replace the judges of the audition with national artists who are loved by different age groups."

"Fukuyama Masaharu!"

"Takuya Kimura!"

"And I!"

"!!!"

Unexpected pick, no. . .It was simply a bold choice, and the participants in the entire conference room immediately showed shocked expressions.

Sakamoto Kiyoshi is understandable as a judge.

After all, as the first brother of SMA and the new operation director of SMA, it is normal for him to occupy a seat as a judge after he has had many judges' experience.

As for Fukuyama Masaharu, it is not too difficult to invite him to be a judge based on his mentor-student relationship with Sakamoto Kiyoshi.

But, Takuya Kimura?
It is more difficult to invite this person. . .

Leaving aside the relationship between Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Takuya Kimura, who is not as close as he is with Masaharu Fukuyama, this invitation is a bit unreliable in terms of Johnny's office.

After all, Johnny & Associates has always been a company that closes its doors and plays on its own.

Let their superstar Kimura Takuya come over to help SMA switch channels and recruit newcomers?
This is equivalent to making Takuya Kimura smile and say to young people across the country, "SMA is very good, come and join!"

Johnny's and SMA can be regarded as competitors of the same brokerage firm. . .

Isn't this funding the enemy? !

Therefore, the difficulty is still relatively large.

However, he seemed to see the embarrassment on the faces of the crowd, raised his head slightly, and the corners of Kiyoshi Sakamoto's mouth rose slightly, revealing a confident smile.

"As for the judges, you don't have to worry, I will take care of it." Kiyoshi Sakamoto patted his chest and promised, "I will give you a satisfactory answer within two days!"

"As for the other preparations, I will leave it to you."

"Propaganda Department!" Sakamoto Kiyoshi suddenly shouted.

And the director of the Propaganda Department subconsciously replied: "Yes!"

"I don't care what method you use."

"A week later!"

"I want to see that the national audition for the SMA audition, and the news that the three of us will serve as judges for the audition, spread all over Japan!"

"any questions?"

Looking at Sakamoto Kiyona's condescending eyes with sharp eyes, the director of the Propaganda Department couldn't afford the courage to disobey the order.

"no problem!"

"That's good." After slightly nodding, Kiyoshi Sakamoto continued to arrange, "Public Relations Department, your task is to cooperate with the work of the Propaganda Department, and take advantage of the current public's attention, which is focused on Sony, to pass the news of the audition to Let more people know."

"do you understand?"

"Yes!"

"That's good, then, let's continue..."

Standing on the podium, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was seriously presiding over the meeting, didn't know that all his aggressive actions made the senior management of SMA's departments look at him with admiration.

In their eyes, the young man standing on the podium and talking fluently did not look like a 19-year-old immature minor, but more like a high-ranking person who has been immersed in company management for many years!
Although, his face looks similar to his own son, too young. . .
