Tokyo: The evil god doesn't want to be the top star

Chapter 107 Yayoi Moon

What Xia Fan didn't know was that the "phenomenal" performance of "Gurren Lagann" at the box office had made up for "Cursed Spirit Blade" and had already attracted the attention of the entire entertainment industry to the "theme song breaking the circle and attracting traffic."

A new round of "theme song arms race" is in full swing, and orders from the music departments of major companies are surging. However, high-quality songs cannot be obtained immediately by simply spending money.

"It's okay. You can't rush writing songs. I'm just giving you some information so you can get some inspiration or direction when you create later."

Yamazaki Hiroshi nodded in understanding.

After all, Xia Fan has released two hit songs in these two months, which is equivalent to the basic KPI of an ordinary producer in two years.

If the other party came up with another song of the same quality, Hiroshi Yamazaki felt that his little heart would not be able to bear it.

"By the way, Xia Jun, NHK TV has also invited us a while ago. They want to send a crew to interview the new producers of "Gurenhua" and "Sakura". What do you think..."

Changing the subject, Yamazaki Hiroshi pretended to be natural and started a new topic.

"Exclusive interview? The kind where you appear on camera. How much is the pay?"

Xia Fan asked curiously.

"Reward? Xia Jun still loves to joke around like always..."

"Although there is no compensation for the TV interview, it is a great publicity opportunity for you and our music department..."

Yamazaki Hiroshi secretly rolled his eyes and explained with a wry smile.

The exclusive interview with NHK TV was a great opportunity for the music department to get publicity, and it was also a great achievement for him personally. Previously, only a few masters such as Yoshihiro Kishimoto were qualified to be filmed.

This was one of the reasons why he carefully prepared the "King's Workstation" for Xia Fan...

If Xia Fan was still sitting on that shabby "little bench" during the filming, wouldn't it seem that the music department was too stingy?

But this kind of interview that other producers are eager for, even the previous masters did not get a penny of compensation, so how could Xia Fan possibly get it.

"Please help me to refuse it."

Xia Fan shook his head decisively.

"But this interview won't take that long..."

Yamazaki Hiroshi suppressed his heartache, maintained a pale smile, and wanted to continue persuading.

"and many more……"

But he suddenly realized something and a drop of cold sweat ran down his forehead.

"Well, I was not thoughtful enough before and was blinded by fame and fortune. Mr. Xia is indifferent to fame and fortune and is devoted to creation. He is very worthy of encouragement and learning..."

"I'll report this to the TV station right away. I promise to avoid this kind of 'meaningless propaganda' in the future."

His face turned serious, and Yamazaki Hiroshi patted Xia Fan's shoulder approvingly, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

Just now, he suddenly realized that he had overlooked an important fact...

The identity of the monster new music producer "Xinxia" is still a mystery in the industry. Even the producer of the music department has only met him a few times and has not seen his detailed resume.

Xia Fan is still on a "part-time" contract now. If he accepts interviews and shows up in public, wouldn't that be giving competitors an open opportunity to poach him?
"Not only do we need to prevent Xia Jun from being exposed, but the department's confidentiality system also needs to be upgraded..."

Thinking of this, Hiroshi Yamazaki glanced at the other producers in the office with a cold gaze, and had already prepared a very strict confidentiality agreement for them in his mind.

"Section Chief Yamazaki..."

Just then, a middle-aged woman in a suit and tie, with a capable temperament, appeared in the corridor outside the door and greeted softly.

"Manager Xiaoxi...is it time for the scheduled meeting? Sorry, I didn't notice..."

Yamazaki Hiroshi glanced at his watch and walked forward to greet the other party apologetically.

"Mr. Xia, I have an important meeting here. Have a cup of tea and take a break first. I'll talk to you later about the custom song..." "Okay, Section Chief, you go ahead."

After comforting Xia Fan, Hiroshi Yamazaki took the agent away.

Behind the agent, there was another woman.

Her figure was hidden in a loose black sportswear, and she was wearing sunglasses, a mask and a knitted hat, making her unrecognizable.

"Hey, that person..."

But the moment he saw the woman, Xia Fan subconsciously stood up...

Because, above the other person's hat, there was a pair of vivid animal ears that were formed by a combination of fluorescent lights!
"Manager Xiaoxi, you should be very busy lately, how come you still have time to come to our music department?"

"Could it be that 'that person's' condition has improved, so he came all the way here to invite us to sing, in order to fight back against the previous public opinion?"

As soon as Yamazaki Hiroshi left, the producers in the office immediately started talking.

"The one just now, Xiaoxi's manager is..."

Xia Fan moved closer with some concern.

"Xia-kun, you don't come to the company often, so it's normal that you don't know. It's said that that Xiaoxi agent had dated Section Chief Yamazaki more than ten years ago, and now he is Yayoi Tsuki's exclusive agent."

The producer whose workstation he had cleaned before said in a low voice with an ambiguous look in his eyes.

"Yayoi Tsuki... I've heard of this name before. She seems to be a very famous singer..."

Xia Fan nodded, not quite understanding.

"She is more than just famous. Among the new generation of singers in the company in the past two years, there is a top female singer..."

"Hehe, is Xia Jun a caveman? A while ago, Yayoi Tsukishiro spread such a big 'rumor' that it was all over the social media."

"Hey, you guys think that the 'rumor' is so convincing and Yayoi Tsuki hasn't responded to it directly yet, so it's probably true..."

While several producers were still gossiping, Xia Fan quietly returned to his workstation.

"Yayoizuki?"

He turned on the top-of-the-line computer and searched on the search engine...

"It really is her!"

Looking at the photo that popped up on the web page, Xia Fan showed a surprised expression.

The woman in the photo had cat-like green eyes, delicate features, and a small chin...

"So, she is Yayoi Tsuki... and she seems to be a big star?"

Although she was missing a pair of animal ears, Xia Fan could confirm based on her appearance and cold and charming expression that this was the "half-demon girl" he rescued on the rooftop of the 60th floor of Sunshine City that day.

Yayoi Tsuki was discovered by a Bethesda scout three years ago for her video of herself singing guitar on the street. That year, she released the limited dark single "Dissected Fox" and debuted as a solo singer. The following year, she released the mystical album "Inari Love Song" and won many honors including "Billboard Artist of the Year", "Oricon Annual Streaming Chart No. 1", "Most Popular Singer of the Year", etc. At the end of the year, she participated in the NHK Red and White Songs Festival as a singer of the Red Group.

Yayoi Tsuki's voice is ethereal and unique, with a charm that seems to touch the soul and makes people unable to help but listen to it. She is praised by the media as a "walking siren".

Her music style is also very unpredictable. She can easily control and perform to the ultimate effect no matter whether she is a mature lady or a cute girl. Her singing skills are so top-notch that she can even sing like an original soundtrack in a live performance.

In addition to her unique singing skills, Yayoi Tsuki also has above-average dancing skills. Even when she is performing singing and dancing, her breathing is so steady that it seems like she is lip-syncing.

More importantly, she has a beautiful face, a cool temperament, and a hot and sexy body. She can be said to be the type that appeals to both men and women.

All of the above factors have allowed Yayoi Tsuki to achieve a terrifying "rocket-like" rise from an amateur to a top-tier female singer in just three years since her debut, and she has also filled the gap of Bethesda's new generation of top-tier female singers, breaking the joke in the industry that "Bthesda relies on royalties from elderly singers."
