"Ready." Both of them are handsome guys, one has a handsome but rough voice and solid performance skills, and the other is a new generation of male stars who are becoming more and more popular in popular TV shows. The two replied excitedly at the same time.
Sakai Quanshui looked at him not far away. This was the first time she saw Tao Zhiming after a long time. It was the last moment when he was in the vortex of public opinion and was talking about the end of his glory.
And the club arranged for her to come here to sing a promotional song for "Memoirs of a Geisha", called "A Song to Remember Time".
She didn't know whether he wrote this song from his heart or his own.
She only knew that he would be on stage and perform in "The Last Echo of the Showa Era" this time.
And the four new songs are wastefully used as promotional songs for the movie "Memoirs of a Geisha", which has not yet officially started filming.Both domestically and internationally.
Backstage, Tao Zhiming was chatting with the newly signed foreign singer from Columbia Records.
During the rehearsal before, Sakai Quanshui had already heard her audition, and couldn't help looking at Tao Zhiming's back.
I heard that it was a new singer that Columbia Records had just signed in the United States. Tao Zhiming, who had acquired Columbia Pictures together with Sony, was also planning to help Columbia Records to promote some new singers in the United States.
Now, this new singer named Mariah Carey has this luck.
Izumi Sakai just looked at it quietly for a while, then looked away, lowered his head and listened to the song he was about to perform in the earphones, nodding rhythmically with his eyes closed.
Then someone tugged on her sleeve.
Izumi Sakai opened his eyes and looked over, then took off his earphones.
Akina Nakamori smiled and asked her, "Do you trust him? Chairman Tao."
"I..." Izumi Sakai hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I believe it."
"Not many people believe him." Akina Nakamori sighed while looking over there, "Who would believe in such a dazzling man after more than three years?"
Izumi Sakai didn't know why she asked herself specifically, but she looked around and saw that when many staff members looked at him, there were indeed more or less doubts, secret ridicule and gloating in their eyes.
"I believe in him!" Izumi Sakai took a deep breath, "After all, even if he only relies on his musical talent, he can achieve what most people can't achieve!"
"Yeah..." Akina Nakamori thought about the new song he sang, and sighed leisurely, "I'm afraid that's why he decided to go on stage and sing those two songs by himself this time. Have you heard him sing it before?" ? One of the songs is from your album."
Izumi Sakai remembered that night, when he drank more wine, he had to look into his eyes and listen to him sing.
She nodded: "yes... that song, he sings it... more flavorful."
The time is approaching, and the last two winners of this program have actually decided the final champion in the last period.Shunji Iwai is in charge of directing this final show, with the assistance of the entire TV TOKYO program team.
Seeing the gathering of superstars, as well as President Tao's personal appearance out of the whirlwind of public opinion, this is a great help to him.
"Iwai-kun, come on!" The defeated one of the two winners said meaningfully beside him, "From now on, you will have to rely on your true strength to prove yourself."
Shunji Iwai looked at him, and said lightly: "Don't forget, you have also been selected for the Rising Star Mentoring Program. If you want to give up the investment of 300 million yuan, go and tell President Tao himself."
"You..." The hilarious guy kept holding back other words.
"Is everything ready?" Shunji Iwai turned on the walkie-talkie.
For some reason, he felt something strange from the full cooperation of the TV Tokyo staff.
If Chairman Tao was about to be involved in this incident, would the people from TV Tokyo put up such a big battle and use the largest studio to record this final big show?
"Then... let the show begin!"
……
The opening scene is based on the sub-shots designed by Shunji Iwai, invested in theater-level animation production, and the scene animation outlined with fine brushwork.
This can be regarded as a preview of the animation version. Although it has not been officially filmed, Shunji Iwai has already read the script.Select the essence of it, through an animation of more than one minute, with complete dubbing.It would not be surprising if this is a trailer for a theatrical animation.
This is the power of money. With so much money, the animation production companies that Tao Zhiming has already invested worked together to open the curtain for the official launch of this big-budget film.
Then Yasuko Sawaguchi appeared in costume.
The national actress performed a complete dance accompanied by other geisha dancers.The goddess plays the role of a geisha, her gestures are already very expressive, but she seems to be able to completely convey it through the camera with the strange feelings of hundreds of millions of people who are unattainable.
And because it was recorded, in the gaps between performances, scenes that hinted at her "inner heart" were also shown in the form of animation.The face of the character can also be seen, that is Yasuko Sawaguchi.It's just that in the animation, she is wearing Bai Wugou, and she seems to be looking forward to the wedding in her dream.
After her performance was over, it was Akina Nakamori's debut."Happiness", one of the theme promotional songs, has an extremely peculiar style of music, and even the musical instruments are not common ones.
However, when he encountered the well-known Nakamori Akina, the lyrics sang in a fast rhythm with a sad and crazy attitude, let people listen to the inner portrayal of the character played by Yasuko Sawaguchi.
The fate of geisha seems to end in tragedy.Is this movie meant to abuse the heroine?
But Sakai Izumi, who appeared next, sat under the warm light again. A fake big cherry tree was drawn on the stage. The background was a huge picture of spring flowers blooming. The stage floor was covered with a canvas of green grass. There are petals falling slowly from above.
【Always staring at the passing hourglass】
【If time can go back, everything can start again】
[The river that lost time, the hands that engraved the brand]
【On the way on that ramp, you gradually go away】
【How many beautiful moments have been left behind by the warm sunset】
【I'm the only one who thinks back here alone】
【Recalling with thoughts, this warmth】
This is the wishful thinking of girls, and Izumi Sakai sang very emotionally.The camera showed Tao Zhiming once, he stared at the spring water of Sakai on the stage intently.
Although these two songs are like promotional songs, people have already imagined the image of a girl geisha who has a tragic fate but is looking forward to a beautiful love.Paired with Yasuko Sawaguchi's previous appearance, it is perfect, absolutely I feel pity.
Then came Yasuko Sawaguchi's narration: "But, time cannot be turned back. In the flow of time, there is parting, loneliness, fear of war, and people and hearts that are getting old. At that time... "
Ethereal music sounded, this time it was Yasuko Sawaguchi's solo dance, and Mariah Carey, who is not well known to anyone, sang. In the recorded version of the program, the song "Young and Beautiful" of course has a translation.
There are very few shots of Mariah Carey, only Yasuko Sawaguchi looks at herself in the lyrics of this song and dances like a sad memory of the good old days.
But when the lyrics sang [When there is nothing and there are bruises all over, will you love me as before, forever and ever], Tao Zhiming walked onto the stage in the camera.
Until then, the subtitles read [Actor (Youth) Performed by: Tao Dalang], and the official announced that Tao Zhiming will participate in this movie.
But at this point, can this movie really be made?
Mariah Carey's song was sung quickly, and Yasuko Sawaguchi looked at Tao Zhiming, and the chasing light on her body gradually faded, which seemed to indicate that there would be no result in the end.
At this time, Tao Zhiming was the only one on the stage, and a beam of quiet light hit him.
"...this story." Tao Zhiming entered the state, and said in a low voice, "There must be a response. Then, let me answer with singing."
The music sounded, and Momonosuke, who was already well-known in the music circle and in the minds of many music enthusiasts, dedicated himself for the first time.
[Like a fool, as naive as a child, bruised all over for chasing dreams...]
In front of the TV, Kinoshita Hidekaze and Anzai Yoshie looked at each other, showing weird expressions involuntarily, like old men on the subway looking at their mobile phones.
"This guy is so good at acting..."
"...That's right." Kinoshita Hidekaze said with emotion, "Now, this performance, I don't know how many inexplicable information will be interpreted."
"...But why is this guy singing well?"
"This is a plus for fame! Fame!" Kinoshita Hidekaze did not dare to agree, but he couldn't help sighing, "There is also a plus for being handsome..."
After the special search department dispatched an investigation into Onodera's wealth and summoned Hashimoto Taro, Tao Zhiming, who was caught in the whirlpool of public opinion because of Wenchun Pao, not only officially announced that he would star in "The Last Echo of the Showa Era" in the final performance of "The Last Echo of the Showa Era". Memoirs of a Geisha, and also sang for the first time on stage.
This is probably Tao Dalang's last wandering, right?
With the ratings reaching an unprecedented record of 14.67% for TV TOKYO’s variety show, this night, the original audience of the show, people from all walks of life who paid attention to this uproarious incident, financial groups, reporters, politicians... No one thought that he would It hinted that "there is always a need for a response", and then chose to respond by singing.
Riddler?
Fortunately, after he finished singing the song, he finally said: "I'm ashamed, it's really too much to sing alone. I have encountered a lot of things recently, but it doesn't matter, I have a lot of friends. Therefore, this movie will definitely It was filmed! Iwai-kun, please! Now is the last promotional song, called "Red"! People's dreams will never end!"
[Longing for the golden fish flying into the sky, dancing like a dragon, I will no longer be confused, and I will no longer back down, and I swear to "Red"! 】
Yinmeixiang's high-pitched and powerful voice sounded first, and then Tao Zhiming and two other handsome guys formed a group on the stage, screaming this sonorous song.
Kinoshita Hidekaze stared at the lyrics on the TV screen, dumbfounded, and Yoshie Anzai couldn't help saying: "This... this is too strong..."
"President! President! 15%! 15%!"
Just like last time, the president of TV TOKYO heard his subordinates rushing in and excitedly reported the latest record numbers.
But he could only look at Tao Zhiming who screamed on the screen, "Ambition is my compass, a compass soaked in vermilion, I can only do this!", and couldn't help but muttered: "This is amazing, What kind of interpretation will this lead to..."
Chapter 491: The Entire Neon Is Solving Puzzles!
As soon as this episode was broadcast, the whole Neon began to solve the mystery.
Ryunosuke Iwasaki turned off the TV, and sighed to Yamane Yokohisa: "You didn't realize at all that he was acting in the marriage proposal to Miss Ueda, did you?"
Yamane Yokohisa nodded silently, remembering what he said to himself when he returned to school.
【...Yamane-kun, please practice with me! 】
【...Those who can restrain Shana for whatever reason must cross the threshold I set up first! 】
【...The determination of a man is only on the edge of the sword!Help me...]
He also remembered how he said to him at that time: [Miss Shaner's future, please!bring it on!Special training, start! 】
Thinking about it now, the macho is in tears.
It turned out that he had colluded with Master Ueda long ago, and performed a play that lured the head of Iwasaki's family into the bait.
Now, he is acting in a new play.There are too many objects to confuse.
Yamane Hengjiu couldn't help asking: "Master Iwasaki, what is his purpose for doing this?"
Iwasaki Ryunosuke looked at him deeply: "Although Kako hasn't graduated yet, you should change your name."
Yamane Hengjiu thought about it for a long time, and said: "Master Iwasaki, I will let Miss Kako get to know me first and let her like me. You are her father, and you should make her feel love and happiness. To have this opportunity to get your Teach me, I also have a better chance of being better than other peers. As for the title... let me use my strength to get your approval, and then change it."
Iwasaki Ryunosuke nodded with a smile, and did not insist, and then said: "Tao-kun suddenly responded to the outside discussion in this way, the meaning is too rich, just like naming the game "Ueda Taro's Bizarre Adventure" "Same."
From his mouth, Yamane Yokohisa heard for the first time the richer details of Zhengfeng at that time, and he understood how Tao Zhiming used such a riddle to make all parties interpret different meanings, and then adopted different positions, which led to the later A change in the course of events.
"Now, the same is true for this performance." Ryunosuke Iwasaki admired, "We are clear that he has regained his footing, and the American consortium and the Tao family have already compromised, and quietly decided on the special search department's investigation. The real direction. But in the eyes of the outside world, Tao Zhiming is still involved in the "gold power transaction" shady person, the special search department has already taken the first batch of information from the wealth of Onodera, and Hashimoto-san needs to summon the corresponding request So, Tao Jun chose to respond in this way on this program, what can you interpret? Put yourself in the perspective of uninformed citizens."
Yamane Yokohisa thought for a long time, and said first: ""The Last Echo of the Showa Era", the name of the program now seems to be very meaningful, and I am afraid it will remind people of Master Takegami, the last batch of Showa Era Big men."
……
"Now that Uno-san is paying close attention to the status of geisha, and "Memoirs of a Geisha" has put out such a big campaign for publicity, then will Uno-san be the one to be interrogated next?" Yoshie Anzhai faced Beichuan Dusi sighed and said, "He chose to imply a response on this program. Is it a reminder or a threat?"
Atsushi Beichuan was amazed: "That's the truth! No matter what, the so-called response is always for the purpose of protecting oneself. No one will respond to admit any accusations, will they? Well, things are now amazing. From today From the beginning, his identity as the 'God of Finance' was not exposed first, but his identity as a talented musician will attract attention."
Anzhai Zenwei thought about this divine development and is still thinking about it, admiring: "That's right. At least many soft-hearted citizens will suddenly realize that a young man with a bright future like him has such achievements in art. Young people should be extremely soft in their hearts. Otherwise, how could they create so many songs that are widely sung."
"It's not just that! Once an excellent artist touches people's hearts, it is extremely easy to gain favor. In any case, after tonight, the doubts about him will fade a lot, and people will at least have more patience to wait for the final investigation results. "
"Especially the lyrics! This time, the words and music are all written by him! As for the interpretation of the melody and lyrics... Sir, did you notice those lyrics when you read them?"
Atsushi Kitagawa did not answer, but looked deeply at Yoshie Anzhai, and said after a long time: "Yoshie, soon, you will become the official chairman yourself. This time, the thing that shocked you the most was the one that shocked you the most. What do you need to learn?"
Anzhai Shanwei's expression froze, and he couldn't adapt to the change of his new identity for a moment.
Hearing this question, he thought for a long time before saying: "It is the use of new methods and innovation. Although he is not as young as him, he is naturally more sensitive to new things and learns quickly, but in the future, we, Sumitomo, also need to pay attention These. There is no opponent who does not want to hide his strength, but his method of concealment is incomprehensible even to those in the United States. The most important thing is that he has used very skilled methods since he founded Bravo Peach and Onodera Fortune The new method, through the layer-by-layer club structure, would rather lose some necessary costs, but also hide his strength!"
Atsushi Kitagawa nodded: "Changshin Bank is one of the most independent banks, and Nomura Securities does not belong to any consortium. Although Sanwa and we both have some small shares in Nomura Securities, we have never been able to ask for inspection Information about a specific customer. It’s incredible, at that time, he could pay attention to these from the root...”
"So this time, the cards he showed have such power. Now, no one will underestimate him, but they still underestimate him..."
……
"This guy... this response is too easy to associate."
Takegami Tashi and the others also gathered together, with strange expressions on their faces.
"Except for the song "Red", the other songs are all love songs. I'm afraid they will first remind people of Miss Ueda's marriage to him, right?"
"... Ueda-san is probably used to it, anyway, this is not the first time he has been misunderstood." Hashimoto Taro can't help but laugh, "However, maybe more people will still interpret him as the woman in the lyrics, and we and Ueda-san are like The person in the room is probably the hateful man who has let down the 'pure soul'?"
"That's right..." Uno Zongyou added, "Especially the song called "囍", which uses the traditional musical instruments of the Xia Kingdom, it can't help but make people feel that we are just taking advantage of his special status. The people involved in the incident may be taking advantage of this. Then those people who lean to the right will also start to be suspected, after all, we are now preparing for the resumption of economic and trade with Xia Guo."
"He said he was like an idiot." Takegami Takumi was almost numb, shaking his head and said, "It seems that he didn't expect the current storm at all. No matter how you look at it, it looks like he was suddenly betrayed. If this is the case, the first persuasion People in Yin will only think that he feels that he has discovered the truth, and that it is the power of the United States, and even united with us to weaken his power."
"Then the song "Songs Engraving Time" seems to be the most gentle threat. The lyrics describe the daily life of the past, does it imply that he has many memories that can die together?" Taro Hashimoto suddenly Laughing, "Including the song sung by the American woman, in fact, carefully compared with the information revealed in this movie, it is actually just the heartfelt voice of the geisha who is the heroine. But..."
Uno Zongyou sighed: "But I had to resign because of this aspect. And the place where the geisha is located has always been a place where big shots talk about secret deals... Therefore, he spent so much to make that film." Movies, it's more like helping me make up my image."
"The most powerful one is the last one..."
These bosses actually got a videotape and played it in the room again.
The lyrics are indeed incomparably harsh, showing their sharpness...
