Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 220 I will not go into battle (4000 words)

Hosokawa Koharu really felt that something was wrong with Higashino Division.

She also didn't feel that Higashino Division was calling here to amuse her.

After all, since Higashino has this confidence, the lyrics and music he wrote should all belong to the kind of works that can be handed out, and they didn't come here just to joke.

only

"Will Mr. Higashino know how to write songs?" Hosokawa Koharu still couldn't help asking.

She just asked casually, always feeling a bit uncomfortable not to ask.

"I know a little bit." Higashinosi replied with a smile, "It's just that I'm not very proficient."

"Is that so?" Hosokawa Koharu didn't take Higashinoji's words "a little bit of everything" to heart.

Because every time Dong Yesi said this sentence, it basically meant that this time he was stable, and he must have come up with something good again.

In this case

"Okay, I probably understand. Specifically, what song did Mr. Dongye write?"

Hosokawa Koharu put down the pen in his hand, and curiously asked Higashino Division over there.

"It's a song about "Unnatural Death", it's the theme song of this manga." Higashino replied with a smile.

"Theme song" Hosokawa Koharu murmured, feeling that it was nothing out of the ordinary.

Because there are actually many secondary creations about "Unnatural Death" on the Internet, many of them like to join in the fun, and some people compose and sing for "Unnatural Death" for free.

This is the terrifying influence of phenomenal comics.

As long as you walk on the street and ask a passer-by about the situation of "Unnatural Death", that passer-by can also say that he knows this work.

Just like the three giants of "Naruto", "Dragon Ball" and "Pirate" back then, even people who haven't read these three comics know their names more or less.

For this kind of work, even if the theme song is brought out in advance, it is not too abrupt.

It is almost impossible to switch to other works.

Urashima Publishing House has always treated Higashino Division preferentially.

Thinking of this, Hosokawa Koharu didn't hesitate. She picked up the bag next to her, stood up and walked out and asked, "Is Teacher Higashino free now? I want to discuss specific matters with you right now."

In fact, there is a fax machine in the company, and Higashinosi also has one at home, so it would be no problem to ask him to fax the numbered notation directly, but there is no way to discuss many issues face to face, which is really inappropriate.

She was also worried that she would not know when Higashino Division would shoot the animation or TV drama plan of "Unnatural Death".

It's better to come here in person

"I'm free anytime." Higashino replied with a smile, "Then I'll wait at home for Editor Hosokawa to come."

Higashinoji didn't use any honorifics, after all, there was nothing to say about the relationship between him and Hosokawa Koharu, and there was no need to be so restrained when talking between the two of them.

Hosokawa Koharu also smiled back to Higashino Division, and then drove to Higashino's house.

It didn't take long to drive to Higashino's house, Hosokawa Koharu got out of the car, and soon entered Higashino's house.

"Teacher Higashino, uh, are you drawing?" Hosokawa Koharu saw Higashino Division holding a pencil and didn't know what he was drawing as soon as he entered the door, so he asked him in a gentle and non-interruptive tone as much as possible.

"Well, draw something you want to draw." Higashino saw that Hosokawa Koharu had come to the door, so he put the pencil drawing in his hand aside.

He drew an exact copy of the cover of "Lemon" by Kenshi Yonezu in his previous life, and wanted to see if he could express "Lemon" through the flat medium of paper before the song "Lemon".

But in the end it still failed.

No matter how I draw, there is no "Lemon" special effect ringing in my ears.

Sure enough, this new painting skill is similar to painting taste and shape recognition. It is the kind of skill that can only take effect after one's own experience.

"Teacher Higashino, may I have a look at the song you wrote?" Seeing Higashino Si handle his affairs, Hosokawa Koharu put down his bag and sat down to ask.

She came from a professional class, and she still knows a little bit about songs and other things-although she is not at the level of a professional, she is still better than the average person.

"Please take a look."

"Okay, is the name of the song "Lemon"?" Hosokawa Koharu took the three sheets of musical notation from Higashino Division, glanced at the title, but didn't care too much.

I can't tell anything from just a title, so let's look at the lyrics and tune first.

She continued to look down, and at the same time whispered along the tune: "How wonderful it would be if all this was a dream? I can still meet you in my dream. There is irretrievable happiness in this world. Dark pasts mentioned to others"

This tune has an indescribably clear and clear feeling, just humming it seems that you can really feel the freshness of lemon.

But the lyrics gave Hosokawa Koharu another feeling.

"Even the sadness of that day, even the pain of that day, everything, together with the you I love so much, turned into the scent of bitter lemon that is deeply imprinted in my heart, and I can't go back until the rain is over, To this day, you are still my light"

This word seems to imply that the creator has lost a loved one or a friend, sour and depressing.

The original song "Lemon" by Kenshi Yonezu in his previous life also expresses this thought, the remembrance of the living for the dead, the mourning

Hosokawa Koharu originally just recited the lyrics softly along the tune, but when he recited it, he thought of his own experience and couldn't help singing aloud.

In the second month of working at Urashima Publishing House last year, her grandmother who loved her the most passed away due to illness.

At that time, she was only halfway there when she heard the bad news of her grandmother's death, and she was depressed for a long time during that time.

This song "Lemon" really evoked her memories inexplicably.

The phrase 'To this day, you are still my light' made her choke up.

Similarly, Hosokawa Koharu couldn't help but think wildly during the singing process

Is Mr. Higashino trying to express something through this song?

So emotional song, so bitter lyrics

But under this sad song, there is inexplicably a little warmth and touch.

It's just that the "light" in the lyrics refers to who is Mr. Dongye?

After Hosokawa Koharu sang a cappella, he raised his head to look at Higashinoji.

She didn't burst into tears like Konoe Lianghua, but she was obviously a little choked up, and at the same time hesitated: "Mr. Higashino, this song is just well written."

"Just?" Seeing that she had been silent, Dongyesi couldn't help asking.

Hosokawa Koharu hesitated for a while, but still didn't think "Mr. Higashino, have you been thinking about your life recently, so you wrote this kind of song?" 'Say this sentence.

After all, it's too rude.

"It's nothing, then let's discuss this song." Hosokawa Koharu collected his thoughts, and then continued to speak, expressing his thoughts directly: "I haven't heard a theme song that fits the theme of comics for a long time."

Yes, maybe because it was born by a father, this song "Lemon" is really suitable for "Unnatural Death".

Whether it is the remembrance of the dead or the warmth in the suppressed pain, it is really suitable for "Unnatural Death"-it feels tailor-made.

It is actually quite normal for Hosokawa Koharu to have this idea.

In the previous life, this song won the Best Theme Song Award at the Tokyo International Theater Festival, the Best Theme Song Award at the 96th Japanese Drama Academy Awards, and even Kenshi Yonezu directly boarded the "Japanese Spring Festival Gala" with this song. Red and White Song Club'.

It's perfectly fine to say it's tailor-made.

"The style of music is also the most popular style of music among young people. I personally think it can be done." Hosokawa Koharu nodded affirmatively while analyzing.

She is not the kind of person who understands the music market very well, but she also has a vague feeling in her heart-this song is released, not to mention the popularity, but the performance and popularity of it will definitely not be bad.

After all, this song fits the atmosphere of Higashino Division's "Unnatural Death" very well.

"Then can I trouble editor Hosokawa to help contact the singer's side?" Having read it and sung it, Division Higashino of course has to make his own request.

"Contact the singer, maybe, can Mr. Higashino have any favorite candidates?" Hosokawa Koharu asked after thinking.

As a publishing house, Urashima Publishing House can be regarded as a prestigious company.

After all, the theme songs of many animations under the publishing house can invite those professional singers to write the lyrics and compose the music.

As long as Higashino is not talking about singers who have been hidden or retired, there is no problem in finding them.

"As far as the current situation is concerned, I am quite interested in Ms. Oura Xingjiang. If possible, can I trouble Editor Hosokawa to contact you?"

Higashino Division didn't think much, and spoke directly.

"Is Oura Xinge?" Hosokawa Xiaoharu still has some impressions of this name that can often be seen at the top of the distribution list, but to be honest, she doesn't have such a good impression of this singer.

Say something that Tonoji doesn't know.

Oura Yukie took over the task of composing and singing the animation theme song very early, but in the last month, the producer approached Oura Yukie, hoping that she could come up with the theme song as planned

As a result, at that time, Oura Xingjiang's agent said that the construction had just started and the progress was only half completed.

You must know that the animation will be promoted a month in advance, and all the matters are ready, but the other party's sentence drags it back for a while.

I don't know if this singer is a little arrogant or a little unreasonable. In short, Hosokawa Koharu doesn't have a good impression of her.

But at that time, Oura Xingjiang was only invited by a medium-sized animation production company and a general publishing house. This time, Higashinoji, a phenomenal manga author, and Urashima Publishing House took the initiative to invite her and just asked her to sing a song. She would never skip the ticket again. right?

Hosokawa Koharu nodded after thinking this way: "I understand. When I go back later, I will ask editor-in-chief Urashima for the song "Lemon" and I will take it away first. Have you completed the copyright procedures? Teacher Tono?"

"Well, I took the time to ask a lawyer to help with the formalities."

For Higashino, the song "Lemon" is a reliable trump card for "Unnatural Death" to hit the average sales of 200 million volumes. It is really the kind of Gatling who can "chug and chug" when it is taken out, so of course it cannot be treated carelessly.

Dong Yesi directly found the lawyer he had hired before to help him complete all the necessary procedures.

"Okay." Hosokawa Koharu was very relieved of Higashinoji's impeccable attitude, she picked up "Lemon" and left.

This is a good song, she was a little moved when she heard it, and she was deceived into tears.

Of course, she can't just let herself be wronged, she must let other people cry with her!

With this thought in mind, Hosokawa Koharu got into the car again and returned to Urashima Publishing House at a low speed.

On the other side, Dong Yesi couldn't help but let out a sigh when he saw Hosokawa Koharu leaving.

The situation is not bad, on the right track.

The quality of "Lemon" made Hosokawa Koharu very satisfied, and he finally didn't have to make himself go into battle to make a low-profile version of Yonezu Kenshi's "Lemon".

But to be honest, it's not impossible to let him sing "Lemon" with this low-end version.

Higashino looked sideways at the system.

Skipping the options related to violence such as name and physical fitness, Higashino looked down and finally stopped.

Other skills: Tang hand, animation script production (10000 well-known points are required to open up the next skill space).

Yes, there is a special blank column for skills in the system skills.

This skill vacancy can be developed according to Higashinoji's idea. He can actually open up a 'singer' skill vacancy.

In fact, this thing has been forgotten by Higashino Division for more than half a year, and I only saw it yesterday when I was exchanging painting skills.

But the main reason is that the skill slots created are not plug-and-play. Even if Higashino spends points to open up a slot for the 'singer' skill, he still needs to spend time practicing repeatedly to become familiar with the skill 'singer'.

This thing is very troublesome, Higashino must at least learn from a professional teacher for a period of time.

"You won't really let me use this thing, will you?" Dong Yesi looked at it, and couldn't help but think this way in his heart.

This idea was just an idea, Dong Yesi already shook his head and vetoed it, and at the same time laughed and scolded himself for being a crow's mouth, insisting on cursing himself.

Urashima Publishing House is willing to help, and it won't be that difficult to win Oura Yukie.

After all, although Urashima Publishing House is not one of the top three publishing houses, it is still considered a giant publishing house in Japan.

There really isn't that kind of person in the world who doesn't have the slightest bit of empathy, right?

That EQ is too low.

He felt very stable, so he clapped his hands and didn't think about it, and continued to paint "Unnatural Death".

This time is the content of the third episode of "Unnatural Death", which involves the issue of discrimination against women in Japan. Higashino has to study hard

Higashino continued to draw, and received a call from Hosokawa Koharu within a few days.

Things are going well, and I have made an appointment to meet with Oura Yukie tomorrow. I hope Higashino can prepare a little bit and go to see Oura Yukie tomorrow.

It's steady——

Higashino nodded with satisfaction.

This time he won't really let him go into battle, will he?
