When I’m in a music show, I just want to make music seriously!

"Tell it out and I'll die with you."

What's the difference between this and being called out by a classmate at a shopping mall?!

6④. Being cute and adorable is the essence of ending a band!

"No, I didn't. Well, now that they're here, you guys can handle things yourselves."

Taku Sakagami believed that Ijichi Kouka still had some sense of propriety, so he didn't ask any more questions.

He took the washed windbreaker from Toyokawa Shoko, put it back in his room, and went to work with Toyokawa Shoko.

But tonight, Taku Sakagami always felt that Shoko Toyokawa looked a little strange after seeing him.

Every time they looked at each other, he looked away as if he was a little nervous.

What's wrong with this guy today?

Is there something weird on my face?

Forget it, Sakagami Taku was too lazy to ask. This guy Toyokawa Shoko has been doing strange things for a long time.

He still has to go to STARRY to work today, and Hongxia also told him on the phone that the band will hold a small meeting tonight to decide on the future development route and general direction.

Taku Sakagami planned to wait until the evening to give the band a general direction for development and see if they were willing to accept it.

Soon, after finishing their part-time job, they arrived at STARRY, where Goto Ichiri and others were already inside.

Sakagami Taku greeted everyone.

After Kita Ikuyo joined that day, the practice of Ijichi Hongka and others could finally begin. In the past two days, Kita Ikuyo had memorized the lyrics by heart, but she still needed more practice in singing.

And in Sakagami Taku's opinion, Kita Ikuyo, as the lead singer, has the most to learn.

Not only does she have to sing and play guitar, she also has to interact with the audience and... be cute!

The last point, in Sakagami Taku's opinion, is the most important thing.

After everyone was present, Ichichi Hongxia stood in the main seat, took out a small blackboard sign, and wrote the theme of today's meeting on it.

"It's rare that we've finally gathered the members we need for the band, so I decided to have a good discussion today about the band's development direction and future path! Everyone, please speak up!"

Faced with this situation, Sakagami Taku, dressed in his butler uniform, raised his hand and said, "I have a plan."

Everyone's eyes turned to Sakagami Taku.

Sakagami Taku took the small blackboard from Ijichi Kouka and wrote on it: "Go for the style of a girl idol band."

"Girl idol band?" Several people clearly needed a detailed explanation.

Sakagami Takumichi: "The quality of the songs is absolutely guaranteed with me here. Although I can arrange and write any style of music, heavy metal rock doesn't really suit the style of a girl band, not to mention whether Kita can sing it."

Goto Ichiri: I can try.

It's a pity that she didn't dare to say it.

In fact, Taku Sakagami has many songs that are simply talented and of high quality, but as a new band, Nijiga and the others cannot perform difficult songs right away. To put it bluntly, they are not geniuses like Shoko Toyokawa, who can perform live directly after being given difficult music scores and practicing for a while.

So Taku Sakagami quickly wrote down a rough plan on the small blackboard.

Because the last performance was so bad, Ijichi Xingge temporarily deprived Hongxia of the right to perform, so the next performance will need to be approved by an on-site review.

Taku Sakagami's plan was simple. After passing the audition, he would use live performances to attract the audience, go for a cute and adorable route, sing songs with catchy melodies, and make the audience feel warm, so that the audience would remember the band more easily.

In this way, when others listen to the song and talk about it with friends, they will suddenly think of "Ah, that cute band singing yesterday" and so on. After accumulating a certain number of fans, the performance can be profitable. Later on, you can work hard to become a powerful band, and eventually go to the Budokan and become a super star!

The girls listened very well and even felt that the future was full of hope.

It was then passed unanimously with almost no hesitation.

Yamada Ryo gave a thumbs up: "I agree!"

Ichichi Hongxia: "Sure!"

Kita Ikuyo's eyes sparkled: "Taku is amazing, I'm looking forward to it just thinking about it."

She volunteered, “If you want to run Issta, leave it to me!”

Sakagami Taku: "Kita is good at this, indeed. Speaking of which, we can create a social media account for the band now."

Kita Ikuyo immediately took out her phone and started to work: "When the time is right, I will update the video every day!"

"Well, then it's your first performance." At this point, Sakagami Taku said mercilessly: "By the way, don't treat that last time as your first performance."

Goto Ichiri's expression suddenly turned grim, even though she had clearly been trying hard.

The result turned out to be 'that kind of thing'!

The mountain in her heart was collapsing, and standing on the mountain, Goto Ichiri felt like she was about to fall and die.

Even Ijichi Hongxia couldn't help but complain, "That's too much!"

Sakagami Taku offered no consolation for this: "During his spare time at school, Kita often learns guitar from Pochi, hoping to be able to play the lead guitar role of Mizuki on the day of the review."

Kita Ikuyo nodded seriously: "I will try my best!"

Seeing that she was full of motivation, Sakagami Taku started the conversation and began to discuss the most important first performance.

He wrote down 'First Performance' and emphasized it with his pen. "For the first performance, I plan to prepare two songs for you. Both are similar in style to 'Love Cycle'. I'll give you the second song after you've practiced 'Love Cycle' enough to prevent the two songs from interfering with each other and causing you to fall behind in your training."

"Huh? Two songs?"

His words surprised all the girls present.

However, Ijichi Nikka's surprise was purely due to her concern that she might not be able to practice the two songs enough. The others were surprised at Sakagami Taku's speed in composing and composing the lyrics.

Sakagami Taku didn't react much to this. He said, "It doesn't have to be two songs. I'll decide based on your training progress and coordination. Of course, you don't have to put pressure on yourselves.

I might not write the second song, but this is the route I decided based on your best efforts. Planning is just planning, and it doesn’t guarantee perfect execution.”

Yamada Ryo: "Well, are the two songs meant to make it easier for the audience to remember them?"

"Yes, first, two songs with similar styles and catchy melodies. They're easier to remember and hum, spreading among the audience. Second, you need a catchy slogan, or a logo that will make others remember you."

For example, before each performance, you can give an opening speech, or include some lyrics related to your band's name in the songs.

This will also make it easier for others to remember the band's characteristics.

Several girls nodded in agreement, but they were all a little worried about how to write the opening remarks.

So, Taku Sakagami wrote a sentence on the small blackboard.

"I tried to think about it, and you guys take a look at what this sentence means."

Several people looked over, and then a hint of brilliance appeared in their eyes.

"Unite and move forward, heading towards the stars."

Unity also refers to their band's 'end band', and Stars is the name of this LiveHouse of Idi Chi Xing Ge. It is a distant dream and also their starting point.

Yes, this is absolutely possible.

Almost instantly, this opening statement was passed unanimously.

In STARRY, a band that will be on the world stage in the future is about to rise.

The stars will guide those who are lost.

65. Don’t underestimate idol girl bands!

Although everyone agreed with this direction because of the atmosphere and Sakagami Taku's promising future plans, after calming down and thinking about it carefully, Goto Ichiri suddenly realized that the idol girl style was completely unsuitable for her!

She suddenly felt unwell and felt as if her soul was about to leave her body and fly away.

Just thinking about Kita Ikuyo singing and dancing on the stage, and occasionally blowing a kiss to the audience, Goto Ichiri felt that his hands playing the guitar might tremble because of the dazzling light.

Apparently, Ijichi Hongka noticed her state, and she curiously asked Sakagami Taku, "But if we want to go for the idol style, does everyone have to do this?"

Upon hearing this, Yamada Ryo also looked at Sakagami Taku.

She didn't have any opinion on the band's direction, but if Sakagami Taku wanted everyone to be the same, she would definitely not agree.

The reason I agreed just now was simply because I agreed with Taku Sakagami's plan and his opening remarks.

She doesn't have too many requirements for the band's development, but if the band wants to go with the flow and follow the popular route in the future without having its own characteristics, there is no point in her joining.

"How is that possible? You don't understand what I mean by 'cute'."

Sakagami Taku shook his head, a confident smile on his face. "For an idol girl band, the most important thing is personality! Uniqueness and individuality! Looking cute is cute, behaving cute is cute, even doing weird things can be called cute."

Sakagami Taku stood up and pointed directly at Yamada Ryo with both hands. "For example, Ryo, if you maintain your own weird persona, the audience will be able to remember it easily and clearly know the characteristics of the band members. This is the real cuteness!"

Hearing Sakagami Taku's 'praise', Yamada Ryo held his cheeks with both hands and showed a shy expression: "Shy~~~"

Well, it turned out that she was overthinking it. Tuo really wouldn't do such things.

Kita Ikuyo's eyes lit up with love: "Senior, do you like compliments like this?"

Sakagami Taku continued, "The idol route is just a short-term plan because everyone's skills haven't reached professional standards yet, and it's difficult to go the route of a talented band. On the other hand, any band starts out by slowly training from the beginning. Once you have the skills, it's not too late to make the transition."

"Maintaining your own personality and performing the shows you want is the key to a band's success. If you just follow the crowd and go for the cute route, without developing your own style or personality, and simply relying on a pretty face or figure to attract traffic, you're doomed to fail."

At this point, Sakagami Taku was full of righteousness:

"Don't underestimate the true core of idol girl bands!"

Yamada Ryo: “That’s right.”

Itachi Hongxia:......

Why did she always feel that Sakagami Taku was hinting at something?

She remembered that a long time ago, Taku Sakagami had been complaining that the music industry was quite chaotic, with a bunch of people wearing bikinis playing the piano, and the traffic of a video they posted was much higher than his, which made him shiver with anger in the middle of winter.

Could it be because of this?

Obviously, except for Ijichi Nijika, everyone else believed what Sakagami Taku said, especially Yamada Ryo, who was now completely blinded by Sakagami Taku's just-mentioned bunch of "weirdos".

However, one of the reasons why Taku Sakagami said these things was that the traffic of his social media account was snatched away by a bunch of people who were just playing music.

But it is also true that we should maintain our own characteristics.

Ending the band, in Sakagami Taku's opinion, was simply born to be an idol band.

Not to mention that all the members are super beautiful girls, the key is that their personalities are very different, and it is too easy for the audience to remember each member.

Nowadays, many band members are actually looking for partners with whom they can get along and have similar personalities to form a band and move forward towards the same dream. In this way, the members are bound to have something in common.

But to end the band, there is a strong rope that connects the beautiful girls with different personalities.

That’s something no other band can do.

The distinct contrast of different personalities creates a strong contrast, and also makes it easier for the audience to like a certain member of the band.

The audience will like the band because of one of its members, and will also like the other members because of the band, and they will complement each other.

As early as the day when the members of the ending band were gathered together, Sakagami Taku had already seen through the nature of the ending band.

And these are the things that only Ichichi Hongxia can do.

After seeing that he had dealt with Yamada Ryo, Sakagami Taku turned his attention to Kita Ikuyo: "Kita, just keep doing what you are doing now. The management of the band will be in your hands."

"I will definitely work hard." Kita Ikuyo nodded, indicating that she was willing to shoulder such a heavy responsibility.

"And then there's Pochi."

When his name was called, Goto Ichiri transformed into an abstract painting, as if he had been struck by lightning.

What to do, is she going to sing and dance rap on the stage too?

Goto Ichiri imagined himself on stage, saying "Yo, yo, check it out!", with a bunch of audience members holding cheering sticks and shouting "Pochi-chan is awesome!!!"
