Tokyo Reborn: Dark Superstar

Chapter 120 Rampage in the New World
Generally speaking, this visit was quite successful. Several beauties in "Oda Nobunaga" were watched.

After returning, Bunta Takakura continued to prepare for the final debugging of the new album with Akina Nakamori and Tony Futaki.

The previously released "I Will Die Even If You Die" officially reached the top spot on May 5th.

Although it was squeezed out by Namie Amuro's "Concentration 20" the next day, it was enough to create a certain momentum.

But this did not deter others. Many singers who planned to release new albums in the summer also began to release new songs one after another to hit the charts.

Putting aside some singers whose popularity does not pose a threat to Takakura Bunta for the time being, it is worth mentioning Wang Wen's first Japanese album "Toy" and a title song of Makihara Noriyuki's new album.

Noriyuki Makihara made his debut in 1990. He initially participated in auditions held by record companies, won the highest award and the " Examiner Award", and signed a contract with Warner Japan.

Five years ago, Noriyuki Makihara released his third single "どんなときも" (whenever). This song was his most famous song and also created his first million-seller single (670 million). Record.

These two, plus Namie Amuro, who has dominated the entire spring schedule, will be the first major opponents for Takakura Bunta's new album.

If the scope is further expanded, Lan, who just won the Best Newcomer Award, also released a new album in the summer, is still a certain threat.

There is also news that the love song prince of Yizhou, Zhang Xinzhe, and independent singer-songwriter Miyuki Nakajima, who "supports most of the Cantonese music scene", will release albums and singles in the middle of the year.

This is also understandable. Who made Takakura Bunta's first album "Kill, Miracle, Heart" so popular?

Sony has already started contacting manufacturers to prepare for the preliminary work of recording.

This film pioneered the genre of Poseidon Films.

Such large-scale stocking and distribution is extremely rare in the Japanese music scene, and it also reveals Sony's confidence in Takakura Bunta.

In addition to the post-production of the album "PLANET", Tony Futaki and Nao Yoshikawa's new movie "Sister" will also be released simultaneously to build momentum for the album.

It tells the love story of a young wife who is shaken by her forbidden relationship with her brother-in-law.

This time it is no longer the Three Heroes fighting Lu Bu, but a real rampage in the new world. Supernova and veteran strong men will attack Takakura Bunta, "the strongest creature in the sea, land and air".

After all, among the three title songs of the new album, "I Will Die Even If I Die" was co-sung by Tony Futaki.

The filming of Poseidon Pictures has always been very efficient. The two of them worked overtime and finished the filming in one week.

However, one day he witnessed his sister-in-law being raped by men...

Tobi, who is staying at his brother's house for exams, has a crush on his brother's wife Nao.

In addition to the Japanese entertainment industry, Xiangjiang, Yizhou Island and other related media, all focused on the summer battle for supremacy in Asia's second largest music market...

…………

After calculation and discussion, "PLANET" (Planet) has 100 million more copies in stock than Takakura Bunta's first album "Kill, Miracle, Heart", with 350 million copies in stock at one go. The distribution channels are all over Japan, South Korea, and Hong Kong. , Yizhou Island, Red Earth Continent, and even Southeast Asia.

There are many disturbances from the outside world, but Bunta Takakura, who has made sufficient psychological preparations, is now very stable.

It just so happens that the countdown to album production for "PLANET" has basically begun.

…………

This album "Kill, Miracle, Heart" killed a veteran king and set a record for the highest-selling album in Asia in 1996.

In the first year of its release, all four songs on the album were platinum songs, and the album itself was also a five-star platinum album with sales exceeding 5000 million copies.

《日本流行音乐》这样的权威音乐杂志的乐评人专栏，已经有乐评人把《杀死、奇迹、心》列为20世纪90年代最伟大的专辑。截止至1997年3月，这张专辑的累积销量已经突破8000万张。

This result is not only the annual album sales champion last year, but also the best in Asia, and can even be ranked at the forefront of single album sales in the Japanese music industry.

It is difficult to deduce the specific ranking.

Because many albums are old, it is difficult to collect data, and many album sales data are inaccurate. Some even include piracy, and each album is priced differently.

Although I cannot guarantee the ceiling of the Japanese music scene, it is definitely at the T0 level.

The explosive performance of "Kill, Miracle, Heart" made Sony full of confidence in Bunta Takakura and "PLANET".

Even if it cannot replicate the sales miracle of "Kill, Miracle, Heart", as long as it can achieve one-tenth of its sales, this album will still make a profit.

....................................

In May 1997, Bunta Takakura took the time to participate in the Osaka Metropolitan Area Promotion Ceremony of Metaverse Planning Company.

During this promotion ceremony, Livehouse Miss Yotsuya Coffee Bar used 8000 million yen in endorsement fees to sign Namie Amuro as the third promotion ambassador of Metaverse.

Mainly to promote the latest series of Conan dolls.

Mrs. Rikako Takemoto, a VIP donor to the Night Tokyo Charity Welfare Institute and the wife of the vice-chairman of the Film Ethics Management Committee, brokered the deal and completed the acquisition of the toy copyright for "Detective Conan".

This series of dolls uses 120-nanometer chips developed by Onijima Science and Technology R&D Center. Toshiba Semiconductor, acquired by Onijima Science, completes chip design, foundry and packaging at the Yokohama Fab.

The dolls are then completed through Mizuno Electronics Co., Ltd.

…………

Bunta Takakura originally worked hard in the background and used the "Great Slug Split" to deploy more than 200 million biological base stations to achieve Metaverse network coverage in the city of Osaka.

However, in order to promote the sales of dolls, Yuan Universe Company still asked the big boss to come out and help build momentum...

…………

There were many celebrities and singers participating in this metaverse promotion event, but Bunta Takakura immediately stole everyone's limelight when he showed up.

First of all, Bunta Takakura's Beasts rock band is already very popular.

Secondly, the sales of metaverse dolls are skyrocketing every month, especially the dolls with 120 nanometer chips, which have 10 times the power of illusions than plants, and have become the No. 1 best-selling product in the other world.

The Yokohama foundry of Mizuno Electronics Co., Ltd. has expanded into a super factory with an annual production capacity of 7000 million dolls, 13 employees, and a total factory construction area of ​​140 million square meters.

The route made with "immortal magic, magic, and toad singing" plus advanced chips has been completely cleared...

Takakura Bunta's prestige within Metaverse Planning Company is unprecedented, and she has formed a close community of interests with Kariya and Masuka Girls' Academy...

Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd.'s investment in Sony, as well as the acquisition of "Ultraman Information Book" (Ultraman Information Book) and other capital-related actions.

No matter in the industry, in the real world, or in the entertainment industry, no one is willing to offend this wealthy and powerful dark star.

…………

As a central figure, Bunta Takakura naturally attracted much attention. As soon as he showed up, dozens of reporters gathered around him.
