Chapter 261 Springboard



This sincere neon-style ballad is definitely one of the most successful of Girls' Generation.

It is a good piece of work that will last forever and will still touch people's hearts no matter when they hear it.

If "Everydaylove" is a timeless good work.

Then, another song that Shigeichi Watanabe brought out, "Indestructible", is a testimony to great joy and sorrow.

"Indestructible", it's clearly said to be indestructible.

But later, one person ran away.

Since then, this song has been at the top of Girls' Generation's lyrical playlists.

It becomes a pain in the hearts of all fans that they never want to touch.

These two high-quality ballad songs just make up for Girls' Generation's shortcomings in the Japanese market.

It must be admitted that Shigekazu Watanabe has a very sharp vision.

It is easy to see the flaws of Girls' Generation today: their popularity has skyrocketed too quickly, their song style is too monotonous, and there are not enough excellent works to allow their popularity to settle.

The works he provides can further consolidate the glory that Shaoshi has achieved today.

The probability and timing of reaching the top will be boosted again.

But why did he target T-ara?

"What do you think?"

Yoon Hye-na shook her head, her eyes puzzled, "Before today, he never mentioned anything related to T-ara."

“How was T-ara’s comeback performance?”

Hearing Li Zhenyu's reminder, Yin Huina immediately took out her mobile phone and searched for related topics.

Soon, thousands of related information appeared under the search list.

Looking at each other, Yin Huina opened the top-ranked consultation, "The cute and sexy K-POP catwoman is coming, are you ready?"

Seven sexy catwomen wearing cat prints, jeans, long boots and cute cat paws on their hands appeared on the screen.

A brainwashing rhythm sounded, "Bo Peep Bo Peep..."

"Scroll down."

Li Zhenyu wanted to see how popular this song was.

"Z Entertainment's first girl group Brainwash is here."

"It became a hit overnight, with single sales exceeding 80,000 in a single day."

"Z Entertainment, the mysterious creator writes another hit song."

"Oh shit, I'm willing to die for them."

"From now on, please call me Meow Girl, Bo Peep Bo Peep..."

Various information about T-ara spread all over the Internet.

On youtube, the MV received over 2 million hits after just one day of upload, causing foreign celebrities who had just experienced the "Gee" storm to exclaim that K-POP is coming again.

This time, T-ara’s first comeback cannot be said to be successful.

All we can say is that they have recreated the miracle of Girls' Generation's "Gee", and their popularity has soared at an unimaginable speed.

After calling the secretary's office, the two learned that this brainwashing song is now being played in the streets and alleys of Seoul.

At the same time, the cute and simple dance is also very popular.

Especially on campus, both men and women are vying to imitate, and many people even take pictures of themselves dancing and upload them to the Internet.

So, a new wave of popularity is coming again.

After IU imitated a 'cat claw dance' and uploaded it to her own account.

Many artists in the music industry have also joined in this traffic feast.

Everyone is enjoying the huge traffic brought by this divine song, and T-ara is the one that benefits the most.

Continuing to scroll down, Yoon Hye-na saw a message saying "Fan meeting recorded live".

The moment it opened, a shrill scream was heard from it.

The seven little ones, who were still digesting their sudden popularity, stood on the stage and waved shyly to their fans.

There were bursts of screams from below, and someone started singing "Bo Peep Bo Peep" and then began to do the cat paw dance together.

The camera swept towards the bottom of the stage, and Li Zhenyu recognized that this was the open-air stage in Hongdae.

The camera panned around, and all that could be seen were heads, heads, and more heads...

Li Zhenyu raised his head, pointed at the screen and smiled: "I found the reason."

No wonder Watanabe Shigekazu is interested in them, T-ara's current situation is simply replicating Girls' Generation's resurgence in popularity last year.

To know how popular "Gee" was at that time, just ask those furniture stores who played the MV over and over for tens of thousands of words.

Ask those merchants who switched to selling pencil pants and made a lot of money.

Or the girls who save money just to buy a pair of colored pencil pants and then treasure them in their closet.

You can also ask the members of Girls' Generation who became popular overnight, escaped the Black Sea incident and became a front-line star, and directly started their journey to dominate the world.

Shigekazu Watanabe believes that Girls' Generation will have a good future.

But he missed the most important period, and his value is too high now.

If you place a bet, the cost is also very high.

He saw the shadow of another Girls' Generation in T-ara, so why not choose her?

Girls' Generation's configuration of 4 lead vocalists and 4 lead dancers is very luxurious, and the members' styles and singing skills have also improved significantly.

They gradually began to mature and stabilize, and took on the appearance of a mature and popular girl group.

But T-ara is equally strong. Its seven members are also highly recognizable, and the configuration of lead singer, lead dancer and front man is no worse at all.

This is also the reason why Watanabe Shigeichi decided to take a gamble.

Of course, his own support and Universal's support were also important factors in his determination.

With the support of Universal's channels and a large creative team, T-ara's development will definitely not lag behind Girls' Generation, and it is not impossible for them to even surpass it.

"Boss, what should I do?"

In the car, Yoon Hye-na was unable to make a decision for a moment.

But he looked more at Li Zhenyu, trying to find the answer from his expression.

The complicated relationship between him and the two major groups.

Yoon Hye-na is very clear about this, both in her own eyes and in the eyes of other people in the company.

What Li Zhenyu cares more about is still Girls' Generation.

Their performance did not disappoint the attention, and now they have become Z Entertainment's trump card.

But once Watanabe Shigeki mentioned T-ara, things became complicated.

With one more option, Universal will inevitably fight harder in the negotiations.

If Li Zhenyu insisted on letting Girls' Generation come, they might not be able to reach the cooperation conditions they wanted, and they would have to make concessions to Universal.

But allowing T-ara to enter the market is equivalent to letting its two most important groups compete on the same stage.

From a business perspective, this doesn't have much impact.

But from the perspective of the group members, the situation is different.

Competing for overseas markets and competing for domestic markets are two completely different concepts.

Long-term friction will eventually lead to internal discord within the company, resulting in members leaving the company like what happened at SM.

Z Entertainment, which is growing rapidly, will inevitably suffer a severe blow.

"Let T-ara do it."

"Completely stagger their performance times. At the same time, discuss with Universal to enter the Yan Country market."

Li Zhenyu wants to leverage Universal's influence in Asia and let T-ara use Japan as a springboard to enter the Hong Kong and Formosa markets.

By using this opportunity to enter the mainland, T-ara, which has the halo of gold certification in three major markets, may be able to obtain official certification directly.

If this is really possible, T-ara will definitely become popular all over the country in the shortest speed.

The tour will start immediately...

If the trend continues like this, even Li Zhenyu can't tell who will win in the end.

Before this, he was more inclined towards the empress.

Now! If T-ara develops smoothly, Girls' Generation will be in danger.
