Chapter 59 Released Simultaneously
In the president's room, Bei Chuan kept silent about anything he had with Akimoto Yasushi just now, but after chatting with Kiyoshi Sakamoto about the daily routine, he went straight to the topic.

"Your English single, the company is going to release it as your second solo single."

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who had expected it for a long time, also replied calmly, "I listen to the arrangement of the company, but is it not good to release English songs for my second single?"

Although Kiyoshi Sakamoto admits that this song "I'm Yours" is a high-quality work, and its sales and influence in the United States are amazing, but in RB, it is not so easy.

Now RB, although the music genres and styles are all blooming, the mainstream music is still pop music and rock music, and Kiyoshi Sakamoto's song with a heavy folk style is relatively small, and all of them are in English. Lyrics, this cannot but make Kiyoshi Sakamoto feel a little worried about the prospect of this song.

However, Naoki Kitagawa also understood very well that Kiyoshi Sakamoto's concerns were not unreasonable, and said, "I know what you are thinking, but after market research and music review within our Sony Music Department, we all agree that it is time to send you Your second single is a topic in itself. After you won the record award, your second single is actually an English single, isn’t that very attractive?”

"Moreover, fans who haven't seen your news for several months will also have a strong desire to buy. The key is whether the song is so good and whether it can refresh people's ears."

"I dare say, this is the best English song I have created so far!" Kiyoshi Sakamoto said firmly.

"Well, I have confidence in you. I have listened to your song "I'm Yours", but I am not very good at judging the quality of music, but director Yamada who has listened to your song, they all said This song is a rare high-quality song. So, KIYO-kun, don't let us down." Naoki Kitagawa said half-jokingly.

"Yes, I will work hard." Kiyoshi Sakamoto stood up and bowed.

"Oh, and, since it's an English song, we're planning to release it in the U.S. at the same time, let's see how the U.S. market responds to your song."

"Huh? Got it, I won't let the company down." Kiyoshi Sakamoto was a little surprised when he heard that his "I'm Yours" was released on RB and the US at the same time, but in this case, he could only express that he would not relax , to thank Sony for their support.

However, in Kiyoshi Sakamoto's view, if it is only released in RB, the sales of "I'm Yours" are still a bit uncertain, but if it is also released in the United States at the same time, then there may be a different possibility.

In the United States, folk songs are also very popular.

It has to be said that the RB music industry is still very influenced by the American music industry. After all, RB has always been the younger brother of the United States.

"By the way, are you ready to take the university entrance exam?" Suddenly, Kitagawa Naoki asked.

"Well, yes, I just finished the unified exam last month, and in a few weeks, I will take the second exam." Kiyoshi Sakamoto didn't know why Big Boss Beichuan asked this suddenly.

"Which university are you going to take?" Kitagawa Naoki was like an uncle who cared about his nephew's entrance examination.

"Preparing to take the University of Tokyo exam." Sakamoto Kiyoshi replied.

"North East University? Will there be a conflict with your acting in terms of time?" After all, East University is not a private university, and it doesn't have so much free time for the students.

"It's okay, I'll take care of the relationship between study and acting. If it really doesn't work, it's okay for me to suspend school at that time." Sakamoto Kiyoshi didn't want to talk so full, saying that it must be okay, so he kept some for himself To retreat, and to reassure Naoki Kitagawa.

"Well, that's good. After all, now is the best period for your development. You can't be held back by other things." Naoki Kitagawa is still the president of Sony Music after all, and what he values ​​is the development of Sony Music .

As for Kiyoshi Sakamoto, Sony is currently focusing on cultivating him, so of course we need to pay more attention to all aspects of him.

Sakamoto Kiyoshi also knows that he is now, he already has a place in Sony, and he is a very important artist, so he will pay more attention to Sony's requirements for him, and try not to do things that are not allowed.

After talking about this university question, Kiyoshi Sakamoto left, because next, he had to go to the music department to discuss with music director Yuichi Yamada about the release details of this single.

In the music department, after a short meeting with the staff of the music department, it was decided that "I'm Yours" will be officially released on RB and the United States at the same time on February 15, ten days later!
Because Kiyoshi Sakamoto had recorded the song "I'm Yours" as early as in Nashville, USA, so after returning to RB, the recording process was omitted.

As for the MV, Sakamoto thought about it early in the morning. It was used in the westlife concert. The shots of his own performance and the shots of the audience were cut into a performance version of the MV, which would be more topical and special. .

It is because of the rather shabby-looking MV and the record that was recorded long ago that Kiyoshi Sakamoto's "I'm Yours" was released so quickly a week later. It's just left for Sony to promote and suppress records, and there is still time for distribution.

"By the way, I'm back, I haven't been to Xiaochuan and the others yet..."

As the other two members of the band THE SUN, because of the big sales of "Flower" last year and the creative ability shown in "Nagasaki", Sony also began to pay attention to Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki.

Just last month, Sony had just rented an apartment in the port area for the two of them to live together.

Because at the beginning, Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki both rented houses outside by themselves, that is, they lived in a single room with a poor environment near Hinode High School in Meguro District.

Now, in order to show the importance it attaches to the two of them, and to make it easier for them to come to the company, Sony rented an apartment for the two of them in the port area. Just a few days ago, the two of them just moved into the In the apartment in the port area.

The two were also very excited and kept asking Sakamoto Kiyoshi to come over to play, so seeing that the release of the single was settled today, and there was no announcement after that, Sakamoto Kiyoshi thought, go to their new home and have fun.

In a supermarket, after buying some beef and fruit, as well as the most important gift for visiting the new home, Kiyoshi Sakamoto took a taxi and headed towards the port area.

As for Uncle Ishida, since he was going home to pick up her daughter Sachiko Ishida from school, he took a step ahead.

Unlike Sakamoto Kiyoshi, Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki, although they are also members of the TEH SUN band, still have to follow Sony's arrangements and orders in many matters.

Makoto Ogawa, because he has more prospects for development in variety shows and funny, so when there is no record released, he usually goes to some variety shows and becomes a guest or a young artist.

As for Chiba Masaki, because he was nervous and impatient when he was on the show, he was afraid that in the atmosphere of variety shows that often joked, he would say something that was NG when he got anxious, so he didn't appear on too many variety shows The program is only followed by the whole band when it is on the program.

Masaki Chiba is usually in Sony, learning lyrics from the company's old lyricists, and some theoretical knowledge of music. After all, he entered the industry without professional music knowledge education. Learning from his predecessors is to improve his own lyrics A very important step in the level, and he is also enjoying it.

It didn't take long to go from Ginza in Chuo District to Minato District, and soon, Kiyoshi Sakamoto came to the apartment of Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki.

Because the two are a group, they are from the same hometown, and they are good friends who have known each other for a long time, so they happily accepted Sony's arrangement for them to live together.Of course, the space in this apartment is relatively large.

Tuk Tuk Tuk

Kiyoshi Sakamoto knocked on the door, smiling while looking at the number plate outside the door.

It says "Xiaochuan and Chiba" on the doorplate. People who don't know it think it's shared by two girls, or boyfriend and girlfriend, one named Xiaochuan and the other Chiba.

But only Kiyoshi Sakamoto knew that there were no girls or lovers in it, only two men. This house number must have been written by Chiba Masaki, because Ogawa would not pay attention to these small details.

And Chiba Masaki is the kind of person who is very frizzy, so he didn't think too much, and directly wrote the surnames of the two of them, so there would be such a misunderstanding.

In RB, the house number is generally written with the surname of the male owner of the family. It seems that the house number of Sakamoto Kiyoshi’s house is written “Sakamoto”, and Hashimoto Nanami’s house is a single-parent family, but it still says “Hashimoto”.

And what is "Ogawa and Chiba" called? . .Do two families live together? ?
That's why Kiyoshi Sakamoto laughed.

The door was opened, Chiba Masaki looked out, and found that it was Kiyoshi Sakamoto, instead of calling Sakamoto Kiyoto in, he turned his head and shouted loudly into the house, "Really! It's Kiyoshi!"

When Kiyoshi Sakamoto saw this scene, he knew that in this "home", Ogawa must be telling the truth, because Chiba's behavior knew that it was Ogawa who asked him to come and open the door.

Generally, when Sakamoto Kiyoshi was around, Ogawa Shin and both of them listened to Sakamoto Kiyoshi.And when Kiyoshi Sakamoto is gone, Chiba Masaki will usually listen to Ogawa.

In THE SUN, it can be said that the person who has the least right to speak is not Kiyoshi Sakamoto who is the youngest, but Chiba Masaki who is impatient.

"Oh, why don't you let him in?" Ogawa Mana's calm tone came from the room.

"Come in, Kiyoshi." Masaki Chiba also stepped aside to let Kiyoshi Sakamoto in.

　The new week is here again, let the new ticket storm come! ! !
