Hiroyuki’s harsh criticism of Miyako’s Yakiniku restaurant becomes “supportive” in a special situation
Hiroyuki Nishimura, a.k.a. Hiroyuki Ameagari, is sounding the alarm about the management policy of “Beef Miyagi,” a yakiniku (barbecue) restaurant to be opened in March by former Ameagari Kesshitai member Hiroyuki Miyasako.
To give you an idea of what happened, let’s take a look at the YouTube program “Win Win Wiiin” (January 15, 2012) that Miyasako is producing with Atsuhiko Nakata and others. In the YouTube program “Wiiin” (broadcasted on January 15), the “mastermind” who runs Beef Miyagi with Miyasako appeared. In the episode, the “mastermind” who runs the restaurant with Miyasako appeared.
He is Kazuto Wakabayashi, the representative director of Noble Promotion, a company established with the concept of “doing whatever Miyasako wants to do. Mr. Wakabayashi was questioned by Nakata, who was worried about Miyasako.
He explained that the rent for Beef Miyagi is 2.8 million yen per month, but that this is not only from the sales of the yakiniku, but also from the sponsorship ads on the tablet devices used for ordering and on the menu, and that the advertising revenue can pay for the rent. Previously, Miyasako had confessed that she had to sell her watch and car due to her financial difficulties, but she said that this was actually not the case.
Nakata seemed to be relieved to hear this. However, Hiroyuki appeared in a video by the distributor Bearded Father and mentioned this matter.
He said, “Internet advertising. If it’s online advertising, it’s at the level of 1 yen per 1,000 views or something like that.
If 100 people come to a restaurant with 100 seats a day, that’s 3,000 people a month. Would you pay three million for that?
If you’re in a cab, you’ll see ads on tablets because you’re bored, but you won’t see ads on tablets when you’re out drinking at a yakiniku restaurant.
“There might be companies that will pay a million dollars for the first three months just for the fun of it.
“Some companies might pay a million dollars for the first three months,” he said, adding that it was unlikely that they would continuously receive advertising for the rent.
He also commented that if Hikaru, the YouTube star who was the co-owner of the company at the beginning, had continued to be involved in the business, it might have become popular.
He said, “If Miyako’s name would have been successful, ‘Miyatako’ would have made more money. It’s been proven that Mr. Miyasako doesn’t have the power to attract customers.
I’ve already proven that Miyazako-san doesn’t have the ability to attract customers,” he said with a smile. By the way, “Miyatako” means “I’m Miyatako. Miyatako is a takoyaki izakaya run by Miyasako.
However, behind his harsh criticism, Hiroyuki may have been sending Miyasako some encouragement.
In the video, it was revealed that Noble Promotion, the company that owns 100% of the shares in Ushi Miyagi, is owned 50% by Wakabayashi, 45% by Miyasako, and the remaining 5% by Shoichi Takahashi, the head of Guild Inc. If you look at the website of Guild, you will see that Hiroyuki is also a member.
I am sure that Hiroyuki is not involved in Miyako’s business at all, but since he is a very influential person, his “mastermind appearance” video has been viewed 3.3 million times (as of January 25), more than 10 times more than other videos. As of January 25, the video has been viewed 3.3 million times, more than 10 times more than other videos. I think Hiroyuki himself is really concerned about the future of Miyasako’s business, but if you take a step back, you can read that he feels some kind of connection with her and is indirectly giving her a boost (laughs).
On his YouTube channel, Hiroyuki often gives advice on business matters when asked by ordinary users. Although he is not involved in the Yakiniku restaurant, he may be helping Miyasako to get more views on YouTube while sounding the warning bell for her business…?
