Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era

  Chapter 342 Exceeding Expectations

   "Can I really meet the president today? It's incredible to hear that the president is only one year older than us."

  Through the job fair organized by WanderDance, Dimensional Culture and Onodera Fortune, these people who were admitted by default set off from the hot spring hotel in Hokkaido.

   This group of unscheduled applicants who have enjoyed the Hokkaido summer vacation training travel treatment are called "cadre trainees". They still remember what their respective presidents said at the time: they are not only the candidates for future cadres admitted by their respective clubs, but also the backbones who may soon take up the positions of class presidents and ministers. .

   These people were convinced, because with their talents, they could have had the opportunity to go to those larger and more historic societies. Coming to Tao Zhiming's club, in addition to the relatively high treatment and benefits, the bigger reason is of course that there are more opportunities for promotion than other huge clubs with a long history.

   For the legendary president, these students who are only one year short have inexplicable admiration in their hearts, and they have the illusion of "maybe I can too".

   "Natsume-kun, the president is your senior, have you met him?" On the bus, someone asked a man from Dongda University.

  Natsume Yamao's eyes were bright: "Of course. In the Kendo Club, Senior Tao is a legend. Maybe he will be more surprised when he sees me."

One sentence made everyone in the car look different, some were envious, some were vigilant, and some even said directly: "Xiamu-jun is from Dongda University, and he knows President Tao. As the same period, we will need Xiamu in the future. Take care of you!"

Natsume Yamao hurriedly said: "We all need to work hard. In the interviews at the end of last year and the beginning of this year, everyone also felt it. Although Senior Tao is young, the club he founded has a lot of experience in the interview and training process. How standard and professional, you have also talked with your classmates? Have you felt the difference?"

   This sentence caused many people in the car to nod.

  This is also one of the reasons why Tao Zhiming was able to manage several clubs under the Pantao Club well.

   Having money can certainly attract some people to work for you, but Tao Zhiming was busy with the establishment of the company's management system during the extremely busy months.

For him, in fact, he just sorted out the better systems in his memory according to the situation of his company, and then let the executives such as Zhao Yuanxi, Ueno Yosuke, Onodera Rana, and Origuchi Yabo understand these systems and implement them. go down.

  Whether it is the management of the company's regular employees, or the recruitment and training of new employees, Tao Zhiming is an experienced executive. For him, all the limited executives are managed and trained first, and the rest is to focus on the execution effect.

   Therefore, although these clubs under the Pantao Club in Neon have been established for a short time, they have become very standardized. Some management systems are even considered very advanced by seasoned managers such as former Shueisha president Ogino Yoshizo, "STAR Weekly" president Masui Takahiro, and SoftBank Publishing Director Naoe Kyousuke.

   At this time, the person in charge of the personnel department of the three clubs who accompanied him in the car was also observing these prospective newcomers.

   They didn't dare to underestimate these young people who will be officially hired in the coming year, because they know very well how fast their respective clubs are expanding. In the process of such rapid development, they already have workplace experience very well: the more this is the case, the more the bosses hope to have a very pure backbone without past interests or relationships.

   This group of people is the first time their respective clubs have recruited into the club through formal recruitment and formal training. They are exactly the "seeds" that the president expects.

   So their “services” are more involved.

   With the personality of the chairman, it is not without examples in the past that very young people are employed as executives.

  …

   Located in the Soya Hills in the southeast of Soya City, today there are colorful flags and crowds.

The main venue area where the    music festival is located is surrounded by fences, and separate entrances and exits are also arranged through tents.

  Besides the entrance area facing the stage and the exit area on both sides, there is a surrounding market area. Selling snacks and drinks, gifts, music albums, even comic books, adult works...

The scene of    was quite lively. Looking at the sign that was erected there, someone said in surprise: "Is there a special tent camping area?"

   "Yes! Isn't it written in the manual? But why didn't such a fun method say it when it was promoted before, and didn't bring a tent."

   "Maybe we came here to find a way to buy or rent it. Look for it, there must be!"

   Inoue Shinji's father found out that the business was unexpectedly good. After a while, he found that his neighbor's son, who was a volunteer in his son's special action team, came running over, hesitating to say anything.

"What's wrong?"

   "Big Brother Shinji asked me to tell you... tell me..."

   "Say what, say it!"

   "Say...let's hurry up and get some other stuff and sell it with the tent..." The little boy who had just started high school blushed.

   "What! I'm busy right now."

  The boy looked left and right before covering his mouth with his hands and said softly, "An...safe...condom..."

   After saying that, he ran away.

   Inoue Shinji's father was stunned for a moment, and then he thought about it, that's the truth...

   Could it be that Shinji is in the tent area over there and is responsible for helping tourists to allocate tent placement areas. He heard something...

The practice of    outdoor music festivals has only been around for ten years. On the Neon side, the first well-known outdoor music festival didn't take place until the eve of the new millennium.

   But as an event where Tao Zhiming and Hokkaido first became attached, with him on the scene, the details of the music festival were very rich and standardized.

  In the main venue, you need to buy a ticket to enter. The fare is not expensive as there are no seats. Everyone who buys a ticket gets a special wristband to wear on their wrist.

   This is a new thing, no one thought it would be in this form before. The wristband specially customized by the dimensional culture even has a little commemorative meaning.

The    fence has actually become an advertising space that Dentsu sells to customers, which is quite impressive.

   In the main venue, in the absence of a large LED screen, the sound system has been specially designed in order to make the scene more atmosphere. At the same time, the electricity delivered from the temporary power generation device not far away also supported something that made the audience feel very awesome.

   The super-sized rear-projection TV far exceeds the current ordinary CRT TV.

   This is an experimental product that Toshiba is developing, and this cooperation between Tao Zhiming and Toshiba, a subsidiary of Mitsui, undoubtedly has an excellent opportunity to showcase this "next-generation TV" that they are optimistic about. What's more, Tao Zhiming also sponsored a sum of money to allow them to come up with 10 prototypes with a size of nearly 50 inches around the needs of the music festival.

   You must know that CRT TVs are limited by technical principles and can only be up to 34 inches.

  10 oversized new TVs were placed in the main venue farther from the stage, separated by fences.

   The live broadcast gameplay has already been played in WanderDance, and of course it will also be played here. The Hokkaido local station specially brought in a team of directors and several staff members carrying cameras, and they have begun to shoot live pictures of the scene and broadcast them on the TV.

  In the case of so many people, listening to the warm-up music and seeing his face appear on the TV, even the more restrained neon people began to cheer in this state.

   In addition to the stage, distribution and stage and the sound array around the main venue, the music festival has a high-tech feel.

   At this moment, Tao Zhiming and Xiao Zangsong Fang were standing in the topmost room of the backstage work area built behind the main stage, looking at the crowd in front of them.

"It's really a rare event in Hokkaido, is this a music festival?" Xiaozang Matsukata was both emotional and worried, turning around and exhorting, "The supply of water, the stability of electricity, and the order of the scene must not be slack. "

   "Yes, I will tell you again."

   "There are still ambulance personnel on call." Tao Zhiming added, "Just in case."

  In the first session, when everyone had little confidence, it was impossible to persuade localities with poor financial resources to invest in the construction of some permanent service facilities.

   Even Tao Zhiming did not expect that the first music festival would attract so many tourists. After all, this is just a new thing, and Zonggu is too far away from the two major metropolitan areas of Neon.

  Tao Zhiming thinks it may be because of the bubble era.

  I have money in my hand, and I have just started to implement double holidays. In addition, during the summer vacation, Hokkaido is extremely suitable for summer vacation.

However, it is clear that there are still some unexpected factors: in the Nakamori Akina incident, it may be because of Tao Yaren's action, which made the incident extremely well-known; then, a Divine Comedy, which will be sung live for the first time at the Hokkaido Music Festival, swept the audience in a short time. The city has become the direct reason why many people decide to come and play temporarily.

   But now the first session has achieved this effect. As long as it can be held smoothly, we can focus on continuous improvement in the future.

Tao Zhiming said to Xiaozang Matsukata and Hamamori Chenxiong: "With the experience of this time, the next year's holding will be more mature. It is the best for the local area to hold a fixed location. I think, the roads, hotels, and music festival scene Service facilities can be officially planned. In the future, the time can be appropriately extended to become a music season. In addition to the main venue, there can also be branch venues. If tourists come again, there will be campsites with 10,000 facilities and car camps. , there is a lot of room for expansion.”

Looking at the thoughtful crowd, Tao Zhiming continued: "It doesn't have to be limited to Soya. Throughout Hokkaido, smaller music festivals can also be planned, and the types of artists can also not be limited to pop music and avant-garde. It doesn't even have to be limited to the outdoor form of rock music. In short, it is through the promotion point of the music festival that it constantly opens up its reputation and creates a reason for tourists to come here. How can it be limited to participating in music after a visit? What about the festival itself?"

"...President Tao's understanding of the music festival is really admirable." Xiaozang Matsukata said sincerely, "However, after all, Hokkaido is too far away. Once such a form is successful, it will be easier to replace Hokkaido in Kanto and Kansai. status?"

Tao Zhiming smiled: "It doesn't matter. Hokkaido is the place with the most experience in holding such events, why can't some people be encouraged to set up such exhibition-related clubs in Sapporo? The events in Kanto and Kansai are up to them. If we cooperate, it will also bring some additional taxes to Hokkaido, right?"

  Xiao Zang Songfang was stunned: "President Tao...will you not take responsibility for this in the future?"

"Dimensional Culture and WanderDance are just the initiators, but we actually hope that there is a special club to undertake these things. I think Dentsu may be interested in setting up a joint venture with some experienced people in Hokkaido to set up a special club to do it. this matter."

   Xiao Zang Songfang moved in his heart and gave him a deep look.

   Dentsu does have a wealth of experience, and there are many clubs that are engaged in the business of organizing concerts. Music festivals are a new business, are there great opportunities in this field?

   It is not clear yet, but since Tao Zhiming said so, and since he launched the first Hokkaido Music Festival, he should be optimistic.

   Xiaozang Songfang guessed that he was willing to give up these time-consuming and laborious careers for his plans in Hokkaido, so that everyone could make money together. His greater value, of course, is to guide in terms of patterns. Specific affairs, let others perform.

   looked at his watch, Tao Zhiming said: "Experience and summary, we will discuss it after the end. Master Xiaozang, the time is almost up, I will go down to see everyone's preparations."

  Xiao Zang Songfang nodded. After moving his eyes from his back, he looked at the areas in the main venue separated by fences and security guards. He only felt that it was in order now.

   I just don’t know what will happen when the show starts again.

  Tao Zhiming went to the backstage below. Although the dressing room, lounge, equipment room, etc. are fully equipped, because it is the first time to hold and temporarily set up, the space can not help but look cramped.

   Seeing Hirakawa Wentai, Qiu Yuankang and others, Tao Zhiming also apologized, but what he gained was understanding.

   To put it bluntly, the money itself is received, it is just work. What's more, there are so many audiences at the scene, which is also a good publicity opportunity.

   And so many different singers perform on the same stage, not like a dedicated solo concert, and even more competitive like a red and white song.

   The audience waiting for the official opening was also talking.

   "Today's finale must be Akina sauce, it should be late."

   "There should be a program schedule. However, you haven't been to WanderDance, and Izumi-chan is also very capable."

   "I heard that the Kitten Club also has performances. Now the situation is very bad. Maybe this is their last chance to take the stage."

"I'm more looking forward to the singers and bands who live in the bar, and the festival has invited a lot. This is not a stage for famous singers. It's more worthwhile to be so far away to hear some great new songs. what."

   "The atmosphere at the scene is the highest."

  “…”

   Among the many expectations at the scene, Huona Jiangyangshui was the first to appear on the stage.

   Of the audience who saw him, only part of them saw him at WanderDance.

   "Are the summers in Hokkaido great?" Hona Jiang Yangshui liked this scene very much, and after he appeared on stage with a microphone, he started to create an atmosphere, "Does anyone know me?"

   "Yes! Long time no see, Yang Shui-kun! Was you the first one to appear? WanderParty, now it lives up to its name!" Many people felt that the version he sang was also very exciting.

  Huona Jiang Yangshui laughed: "I am the host today, which is a pity. But now I am as excited as everyone else. Next, let's start this music party in the wilderness! Are you ready?"

   "Oh!" The shouts of so many people were full of momentum.

   "Then, the first singer to appear, and the first song, is something that no one has ever heard before! The ending song from the anime version of Osamu Tezuka's "Bird of Fire" is broadcast for the first time. Are you looking forward to it?"

   "Bird of Fire? Awesome!"

   "Let's get started!"

   "...Then—" Huona Jiang Yangshui waved his hand back, "Sakai Springshui from WanderDance brings you this "Power of Fire"!"

  Tao Zhiming stood by the door in the backstage, smiled and nodded towards Sakai Springs: "Come on, Springs."

  The song is "letitout", but the lyrics and song title have been changed. Tao Zhiming felt that she had grown a lot more than before, enough to meet a bigger stage.

   Sakai Quan Shui walked towards the stage from the backstage with his head lowered. Hearing the tsunami-like shouting from the mountains in front of him, he only felt his heartbeat intensified.

   "Spring water! Spring water! Spring water!" People who have been to WanderDance called together.

  The next moment, four sets of huge rectangular picture frames were arranged on both sides of the stage, and new frames were pulled down by manual operation.

   Huge promotional posters for the "Bird of Fire" animation appeared on both sides of the stage.

  There is no huge LED, so this is the only way to help create a little atmosphere.

   And in order to have more atmosphere, of course, we have to use a live band to play.

   "Thank you everyone..." He just lowered his head and asked Sakai Springshui, this style makes some people who haven't seen her not quite used to it.

   So unenthusiastic, still want to be a singer?

   And then, Sakai Quan Shui secretly glanced at the audience, and the crowd of people couldn't see their heads at a glance.

   She quickly turned her head and nodded to the band.

   The drummer raised his hands and struck a few times, and then the melodious prelude began.

  WanderDance's songs are always like this, from the intro to the ears.

  When Sakai Izumi nodded slightly, and her side face close-up hiding from the camera was broadcast on a large-scale TV that she had never seen before, her unique charm began to show.

   The singing sounded, and the feast of music began in the wilderness of Hokkaido.

  The other singers who were prepared backstage did not stay in the lounge, but gathered together and watched the situation in the venue from the TV that was broadcast live in the backstage.

   After watching the audience raise the colored foam sticks that came with the wristbands and wave them, both Kawai Sonoko and Kudo Shizuka's eyes lit up.

   If you can maintain this atmosphere, even the kitten club that is on the verge of disbanding may welcome a new life, right?
