Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1005 1005. Diverse future
"Super cute..."

Kimura Takuya thought quietly in his heart.At this moment, Kudo Shizuka, accompanied by the staff, walked in front of him and Katori Shingo.From a distance away, the two teenagers bowed their heads in greeting.

However, Shizuka Kudo only cast a glance at this side, then immediately withdrew her gaze and walked away quickly.

In terms of age, Shizuka Kudo is actually two years older than Takuya Kimura. However, they are also in the backstage of the Red and White Song Festival. One is a super female idol who is now in the limelight and NHK strongly invites, and the other is just relying on Johnny's A young idol who barely made his debut in the Red and White Song Club.

In front of the radiant Shizuka Kudo, what are these two little idols?
"Shizuka-chan's face is smaller than on TV." Shingo Katori expressed his thoughts to Takuya Kimura foolishly.He lowered his voice, as if he was afraid that Shizuka Kudo would turn back and be heard by her.

Takuya Kimura thought his appearance was funny, reached out and patted his head.

However, he also felt in his heart that Shizuka Kudo herself was different from what she saw on TV.The face is smaller than what you see on TV. Although the real person is cute, she doesn't look like a female idol.

Such thoughts flashed through Kimura Takuya's mind.He glanced at Shingo Katori who was rubbing the back of his head after being beaten, and said with a smile, "Don't you want to buy a drink? What would Mr. Shenwu want to drink?"

He showed a somewhat smug expression, and as if by magic, he took out a few coins from his pocket, "I invite you."

There was a drink to drink, and Katori Shingo immediately cheered up again.

The two teenagers forgot Shizuka Kudo aside, walked to the vending machine, and stood beside them with their drinks to drink slowly.The first half was coming to an end, and the backstage gradually became busy again.

From time to time, there are busy staff passing by, and now and then there are one or two young men in kimonos.This is the inner disciple who came here with the great figures in the singing world, and is going all out for some request of the master.

In retrospect, when SMAP ran errands for Guang GENJI, it probably looked like this in the eyes of others.However, before debuting, there was no time to observe and think like this.

Realizing that standing outside was a bit conspicuous, Takuya Kimura gulped down the remaining coffee in the can.Katori Shingo was like a brother's answerer. After seeing it, he followed his example and drank carbonated soda in big gulps.

At this moment, from not far away, the urgent voice of the staff sounded: "KIRIN-san, this way please!"

Takuya Kimura gave Shingo Katori a look, and then quickly threw the can in his hand into the trash can.

……

After the car arrived at the parking lot, Shinichi Iwahashi, who had changed his clothes in advance, returned to the backstage of the NHK hall.He hurried, until two teenagers dressed in fancy clothes bowed to him.

"Kirin-san."

Two slender teenagers, wearing fancy costumes, don't need to look at their faces, just by the style of their clothes and their figure, they are known to be Johnny's idols.This recognition is high enough - I have to admire Kitagawa Hiroshi's strategy.

However, thinking that he was also wearing Johnny's and Johnny's costumes, and also wearing a giraffe headgear, Iwahashi Shinichi suddenly stopped his defamation of Johnny's style.From a certain point of view—such as "explosive aesthetics", Kitagawa Hiroshi may be able to exchange stage performance experience with Miwa-chan.

Yanqiao Shenyi stopped in his tracks, looked at the two boys, and nodded in greeting.Backstage where people come and go, such chance encounters will happen many times a day, but it's nothing special.

After returning the gift, Yanqiao Shinichi was about to leave when one of the teenagers raised his voice slightly, "That..."

"I wish you all the best for your next performance!"

After Katori Shingo said this, embarrassment was immediately written on that ignorant face.I didn't know if I said something wrong in my nervousness, so I quickly lowered my head again.

Yanqiao Shinichi looked at the boy's embarrassed appearance, and finally remembered this face——

"Katori Shingo-kun... right?" he asked.

The boy on the opposite side nodded vigorously, "Yes, I am Shingo Katori from SMAP."

"I'm Takuya Kimura from SMAP." Another boy next to him, almost without thinking, bowed his head with Shingo Katori, and introduced himself again.

Yanqiao Shen smiled, although through the hood, he smiled in vain, "I still remember, we met." Backstage at the Red and White Song Contest last year, the two teenagers introduced themselves to him.

"Thank you, Katori-kun." Iwahashi Shinichi patted Katori Shingo on the shoulder, and withdrew his hand.Before leaving, I said to the two teenagers, "Congratulations to you too, you have officially debuted this year."

Although they debuted at the same time as the end of the idol era, they are an idol group with a long way to go.

However, for Johnny, re-discovering an idol path is a must for this firm.Because of this, SMAP, which debuted at this juncture, no matter whether it succeeds or fails in the end, keeps trying on this combination or finally abandons them... this is a combination that is worth looking forward to and paying attention to.

As soon as Yanqiao Shen thought of this, he couldn't help but develop a subtle liking for these two teenagers who had met more than once.And this tinge of goodwill stems from the thought that the group they are in is very likely to be expanded by Kitagawa as a "vanguard" to make various attempts.

This combination, the two teenagers in front of them, they have the potential to shine in a new way and become stars in the entertainment industry.It is also possible to fall before becoming a star and fall to the bottom of the river in the entertainment world.

The unknown means many possibilities.And "unknown" is a quality that attracts Iwahashi Shinichi.

Before leaving, Yanqiao Shinichi encouraged the two teenagers, "Come on."

Not long after the end of the first half of the Red and White Song Concert, Shinichi Iwahashi stopped staying for long, striding towards the lounge of DREAMS COME TRUE, waiting for the start of the performance.

……

The giraffe man left in a hurry.

The two teenagers watched his back, Katori Shingo and his companions sighed, "Giraffe-san is really good."

Takuya Kimura looked at the back of the giraffe man. His shoulders rose and fell with his footsteps. Although he was wearing a fancy costume, it couldn't hide the straightness of his back.Looking at such a back, one can't help but think that the person under the hood is probably a rather resolute person——

Of course, it was just relying on an unprovoked association from the back.

However, Takuya Kimura agreed with Shingo Katori's words, "He is indeed a very good person."

Idols are at the bottom of the entertainment industry, and popular idols are another matter. The staff of their own TV stations will support them, and other actors or singers will also hinder their affection.But these treatments have nothing to do with the street idol who just debuted.

Since I became SMAP, I have traveled to various shooting scenes, and I have not been underestimated.In other words, he has been underestimated more than a few times.But Giraffe-san, who is said to be the producer of DREAMS COME TRUE, treats them with kindness every time.

I greeted the giraffe man as I wished, and was patted on the shoulder.Katori Shingo is in a good mood, and the half-old child has everything written on his face, "It's great to come out and buy drinks."

Takuya Kimura laughed at Shingo Katori's childish words.But I couldn't help thinking in my heart that the giraffe Sang was in a hurry, as if he had come here from somewhere.

The hall where they are located, the corridor on one side leads to the outside of the NHK hall.

But maybe it's just going out to buy something.Takuya Kimura thought so, but he didn't say his problem, but patted Shingo Katori on the shoulder, with a relaxed tone, "Now, don't you want to drink another bottle?"

Now that I met the giraffe man, there is no need to be so preoccupied.

Katori Shingo was said to be the center of the matter, and grinned.

Takuya Kimura put aside the question he had just thought of.The two teenagers walked back together. At this time, the end of the first half was getting closer, and the atmosphere in the backstage was getting more and more tense.

……

The ratings of the Red and White Song Club have always started to rise after nine o'clock. Newcomers, people who are not famous and popular are often arranged in the first half of the first half, just like when playing cards, you must first get rid of the bad ones. Find a way to play the cards like that.

After 09:30, the ratings peaked in the first half, and popular singers began to appear.

And when the first half is over, the NHK news episode ends, and the second half begins, it will be a good show in turn.Famous and popular singers and stars from all walks of life, one after another good cards were played out.

Considering the "combat" nature of the Red and White Song Club, it really means that the two groups of hosts have a lot of points in the card game.

The second half of the main event of the Red and White Song Festival is about to begin, and the award ceremony of the Record Awards has also come to an end.

This year's grand prize was undoubtedly won by "Let's Dance Together". The team of BBQQUEENS stepped onto the stage, and the two lead singers, one male and one female, were surrounded by teammates, hosts, and flower presenters.Compared with the flowers they received, this formation made the two lead singers, Fonosuke Kondo and Yuiko Tsubokura, like carefully packaged bouquets.

And when the band took over the trophy from the chairman of the Grand Prize Committee and sang this song, almost everyone in the entire Budokan, whether it was on stage or off stage, in the audience seats or in the auditorium Consciously hum along and beat the time for it.

Together with the audience in front of the TV, when watching the performance of the group, they are familiar with this song. If there are children in the family, the children will even sing and dance to it.

No matter how you look at it, there is no doubt that this song "Let's Dance Together" won the grand prize, and it deserves its name.

After watching the main event of the Grand Prize, Iwahashi Chiyo said "We're going to change the channel" and transferred the program to NHK.The old couple didn't mention it, but they both remembered that Iwahashi Shinichi had called beforehand and said that his band would play in the second half.

It was around ten forty-five.

Now that enka singers dominate the Red and White Song Club, almost occupying the time slot after eleven o'clock, this order of appearance, the Red and White Song Club can be regarded as giving the band enough treatment.

This year’s New Year’s Eve, Masaki Iwahashi finally didn’t complain about “I’m wearing a hood anyway, so I can’t tell it’s him”, but he still couldn’t help it. When Hikari GENJI made the opening performance for the second half, he remembered, He said: "This year, Shen Yi can also play twice."

Iwahashi Chiyo picked up the teacup again, as if she wanted to use the steaming teacup in her hand to resist her husband's coming cold words.

Sure enough, Yanqiao Masaki continued: "Although it's just showing a side... But even if it's the bread that's about to expire, it's still bread."

Iwahashi Chiyo put the teacup to her mouth, took a sip of hot tea, watched the roller skating idols singing and dancing on TV, and said calmly, "Johnny's brother is also pretty good."

Yanqiao bumped Ming into the cotton, finally shut up, picked up his teacup, and took a sip.

The duel between the red and white groups continued, and the old couple finally stopped disrupting each other and watched TV quietly.After Hikari GENJI's performance, it was Nakayama Miho who took over.

Further down, The Checkers took over...

When it was Akina Nakamori's turn to appear, Iwahashi Masaki moved his lips, turned his head slightly, and glanced at his wife.Yanqiao Chiyo looked at the big star in the middle of the stage with a happy expression.

Other things are fine, but about the son's girlfriend, if the wife expresses an opinion, I can still take the opportunity to say a few words.But his wife acted nonchalantly, and Yanqiao Masamune was inconvenient to say anything more.

I can only swallow those words——

I don't mean to be picky, but why did I choose an idol?

……

Yatsushiro Aki and Yoshiki San, two enka singers duel without losing their standard, and after the calm typhoon, the atmosphere of the red team and the white team playing their cards respectively disappeared for a while. Mita Yoshiko and Nishida Toshiyuki, the two hosts together appear on stage.

Outside the camera, the singers of the red and white groups stood on both sides of the stage, waiting for their moment to appear.

"Next, there is a special program for this year's Red and White Song Festival."

With a smile on her face, Yoshiko Mita recounted the hot occasion of "Chibi Maruko" this year to the audience again like a news commentator.The funny-looking Toshiyuki Nishida was on the sidelines, and the two sang and chatted about this popular cartoon.

This year, the highest ratings for a single episode of "Chibi Maruko-chan" once exceeded [-] points. With this ratings, prime-time TV dramas have to look up to it. Only morning TV dramas are not afraid of it.An animation with a viewership rating exceeding [-] points will not only be watched by children, but if it exceeds [-] points, it will definitely have widespread support.

Before the show started, the two hosts chatted about the topic of "Chibi Maruko", as if they were giving time to the audience who hadn't changed the channel, so as not to miss the next most exciting part of the show.

"...Tonight, everyone from BBQQUEENS will bring the song "Let's Dance Together" that has become a topic." Following Yoshiko Mita's words, the members of the group appeared on the stage and stood behind her and Toshiyuki Nishida.

The camera cuts to the distant view. The singers who appeared tonight, no matter whether they are idols or bands, no matter whether they are wearing dresses or kimonos, all approached the stage as the center, wrapping BBQUEENS, a beautiful but easy-to-drop flower, into a gorgeous bouquet.

On both sides of the stage, stood the singers of the red group and the white group respectively.

On the side of the red group, even if the camera stops for a while, it can still make people see the most conspicuous person in the first place——

The tallest and most conspicuous giraffe head.

Masaki Yanqiao looked at this fleeting scene, "So, I actually played three times today."
