Reborn Japan for entertainment

Chapter 516 The First Acquisition Target
Looking down from the aerial camera, Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Yui Aragaki, surrounded by 3000 people, sang in unison while holding hands with the students around them.

"The only one in the vast universe"

"In a Wide World on a Blue Earth"

"Little Love"

"To you on a small island"

The song "小さな恋のうた", which has dominated the Oricon Karaoke list for many years, was obviously shocked by the loud singing of two people.

At least, in the picture, it seems that it is very eye-catching.

However, when there are more people, the difficulty of shooting increases geometrically.

Even so, with sufficient preparation in advance and the active cooperation of the students, the entire segment of the chorus of thousands of people was over in one go!

In the advertisement, the picture of the students singing in unison was also edited later and pieced together into a moving advertisement.

Finally, it was cut into a five-and-a-half-minute TV commercial, and after a few days, it was put on the large LED screens at the intersections of prosperous streets, as well as on major TV stations.

Once this unique advertisement was broadcast, it immediately attracted the attention of the public and set off a wave of panic buying of Walkman. . .

At the same time, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was meeting with the head of the script team, the deputy director of SMA, Kitahara Hikaru.

Kitahara Hikaru, 37 years old, is a social elite with high education, high IQ, and high EQ.

At the same time, he is also a veteran employee who has worked in SMA for more than ten years.

Before Kiyoshi Sakamoto took office, he had been serving as the deputy director of operations.

I don't have much opinion on the operation of artists.

However, his excellent university experience made his ability in organization and coordination very outstanding.

It can be said that he is a very good performer.

It was precisely because of this quality that Sakamoto Kiyoshi promoted him to the position of deputy director after taking office to serve as his deputy.

He needs someone to carry out his various plans.

And Kitahara Hikari was his chosen candidate.

"How? Is he willing to sell?" Sitting in the director's office of the SMA headquarters building, Kiyoshi Sakamoto asked in a relaxed tone, sitting opposite the deputy.

"Although when we first contacted him, his attitude was very tough, and he resolutely refused to agree to sell us the exclusive film adaptation rights..."

"However, after our price increase and the sincerity we have shown during this period of time, he finally let go."

"However, he made several demands..."

Hikaru Kitahara sat on the chair opposite Kiyoshi Sakamoto, reporting a bit cautiously.

Although at the age of 37, he became the deputy director of operations of Sony's artist agency, which is enough to make him proud.

However, he still felt very uncomfortable when he was alone in the room with Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

After all, in front of Sakamoto Kiyoshi, he has nothing to be proud of.

In terms of being young and promising, in Japan and even the whole world, who can be more "young" and "promising" than Kiyoshi Sakamoto? !

You know, the young man sitting in front of him started from scratch. In just a few years, he became the richest man in Japan, which is enough to shake the entire entertainment industry and even influence the big shots in Japan.

What's more, the reason why he jumped two levels in a row, became the deputy director, and became Kiyoshi Sakamoto's spokesperson in SMA is all thanks to Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

Therefore, facing his immediate boss, Kitahara Hikari's nervousness was understandable. . .

On the other hand, without paying attention to the inner activities of the deputy, Kiyoshi Sakamoto continued to ask while turning the pen in his hand.

"Oh?"

"Then what does he want?"

From Sakamoto Kiyoshi's flat expression, Kitahara Hikaru couldn't tell what was going on in his heart, so he continued to use cautious words to answer.

"What he means is that the film adaptation rights can be sold; however, the exclusive film adaptation rights cannot be sold to us."

"why?"

"According to what he said, he is also preparing to adapt this novel into a movie, so..." Kitahara Hikaru said with a little shame.

Also, the newly established SMA script team encountered difficulties in performing the first task assigned by Kiyoshi Sakamoto under the inclination of obtaining many resources from SMA.

This will definitely make Kitahara Hikaru, who is in charge of the specific affairs of the team, feel frustrated, and at the same time, he is afraid that he will fail Sakamoto Kiyoshi's expectations. . .

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto seemed to have expected this situation.

He didn't blame Bei Yuanguang for his ineffectiveness, but comforted him with a gentle tone, "In this case, forget about the exclusive right to adapt the movie, just buy the right to adapt the movie."

"Eh?!"

Hikaru Kitahara, who was still waiting for Kiyoshi Sakamoto to scold him, immediately raised his head and exclaimed.

"Director, this..."

"It's okay." After waving his hand, Kiyoshi Sakamoto continued, "The most important thing is that you can win the right to adapt."

"Since he also wants to take pictures, let him take pictures."

Anyway, the target audience is people from different regions. . .

Bei Yuanguang looked puzzled, he was a little confused about what his boss was thinking.

"Uh, but, if he makes this novel into a movie before us, aren't we latecomers to the remake?"

At this time, Sakamoto Kiyoshi stood up from the office chair, walked to Kitahara Hikari's side, pressed his shoulder, and said with a smile.

"There is no need to worry about this at all. As long as we are one step ahead of him and film the story, then we will still be the first pioneers to adapt this novel into a movie!"

"The most important thing is that we have to get the right to adapt this novel first!"

"So, it's up to you whether you can bring me some good news!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's confident appearance seems to have infected Kitahara Hikaru.

With a solemn expression, he replied loudly.

"Yes! Rest assured and leave it to us!"

"That's good." Kiyoshi Sakamoto patted him on the shoulder lightly, expressed encouragement, and returned to the seat again.

"Do you have any other questions?"

"Actually, Director, I'm very curious..."

Kitahara Hikaru suddenly hesitated, which made Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was sitting opposite, a little confused.

"Well, you said."

"I want to ask you, our country also has a lot of works that are suitable for adaptation into film scripts, why don't you let us buy the adaptation rights of those works, but let us go to Taiwan and buy them from this Mr. Ke The right to adapt this novel?"

It was this!
As soon as Kiyoshi Sakamoto heard Kitahara Hikaru's question, he knew that this question must have been bothering him all the time.

However, Sakamoto Kiyoshi did not intend to explain to him.

Because, only he understands why this movie is the first target to acquire the adaptation rights.

After all, that was the only movie that made him shed tears involuntarily after watching it.
