Chapter 883: Time passes, and the artist grieves
Xiaofeng went to Japan this time to participate in Ayumi Hamasaki's solo singing as a guest, and being able to participate in the solo singing of one of the four major singers as a guest is very helpful to Xiaofeng's singing career, although Tetsuro Oda is quite disgusted with Ayumi Hamasaki, but still agreed to Ai Hui's proposal, after all, Xiaofeng's Japanese contract is hung in Ai Hui, and Oda Tetsuro is not good at not giving face at all.

If you push the time back to 10 years, even if Xiaofeng has developed well in the Japanese music industry, it is not enough to participate in the solo singing of the four singers, but the current four singers are no longer the original four, although they have made comebacks, but they are no longer as brave as they were back then.
The other three have reasons to stay away from the entertainment industry, but Ayumi Hamasaki is completely tossed by himself, the scandals continue to decline in the quality of the album, and the ever-changing style that he relies on to become famous is no longer popular, and it has been declining since 10 years and there is no rebound.
Therefore, Ayumi Hamasaki has a lot of conflicts with Ai Hui, the pop diva who has created countless history in the Japanese song industry has become a chicken rib level existence, competitiveness, popularity, and the quality of works are declining, but I still consider myself a diva, unwilling to face reality, Ayumi Hamasaki attributed the reason for the sluggish popularity to the unfavorable operation of the company.
Give up Hamasaki Ayumi Ai Hui is not reconciled, so many years Hamasaki Ayumi has become Ai Hui's signboard, if Hamasaki Ayumi takes the initiative to leave well, the impact on Ai Hui is not big, but if Hamasaki Ayumi is driven away by Ai Hui, then the impact on Ai Hui will be great.
Ayumi Hamasaki is rarely smarter, although he still forces Ai Hui to invest resources in her, but he resolutely does not break up with Ai Hui, and it is impossible for her to enjoy the treatment of a diva after leaving Ai Hui.
This solo singing was also made under the "hard work" of Ayumi Hamasaki, or Ai Hui's assessment of Ayumi Hamasaki, she is not suitable for singing at all now, and now the old Ben has eaten almost, and the number of people on the scene is getting smaller and smaller.
Ayumi Hamasaki's pomp is also reflected in the solo guests, Ai Hui is very headache for this, Ayumi Hamasaki's standard Ai Hui doesn't want to do it and can't do it, Ai Hui doesn't want to use the company's favors to pay for Ayumi Hamasaki now.
So they thought of Xiaofeng, although Xiaofeng's fame in the Japanese music industry does not meet the requirements of Ayumi Hamasaki, but fortunately, Xiaofeng is supported by Tetsuro Oda behind her, and Xiaofeng is still a Korean artist, with these two points in Ayumi Hamasaki reluctantly agreed, Ayumi Hamasaki felt that it was not bad to find a Korean singer to reflect her identity as an Asian diva.
Xiaofeng didn't have too many thoughts about participating in Ayumi Hamasaki's solo singing, Xiaofeng didn't pay attention to Ayumi Hamasaki when he was the hottest, let alone now, although Xiaofeng is now developing in the Japanese music industry, but Xiaofeng can't understand the Japanese entertainment circle, compared to the entertainment circles of other countries, the Japanese entertainment industry is more chaotic, it is not uncommon for artists to die, and all kinds of negative news levels are endless, and the Korean entertainment industry can also be regarded as a mixed Xiaofeng's feelings about the Japanese entertainment industry are the chaos of your circle.
Although Ayumi Hamasaki is far from what it used to be, this time the solo singing Ai Hui in Ayumi Hamasaki's hometown of Yokohama is still doing his best, and Ai Hui chose here out of helplessness, and with Ayumi Hamasaki's standards, the whole of Japan can make some money by singing in Yokohama.
Even if Ai Hui tried his best, Ayumi Hamasaki was still not very satisfied with Ai Hui's preparation, and the overall scale reached the minimum standard in Ayumi Hamasaki's heart, but this guest candidate made Ayumi Hamasaki feel that Ai Hui was dealing with her, and there was only one guest with a surname, Luo Fengen, and the others were Ai Hui's younger brothers and sisters, and they didn't mind taking care of their fellow Ayumi Hamasaki, but they didn't take care of it so much, what does it mean to get a few artists who have just debuted.
Ayumi Hamasaki complained a lot with his team, as an Asian diva, Ayumi Hamasaki's team is still very strong, with a dedicated band, a dedicated backing singer, and a dedicated dancer, just to maintain Ayumi Hamasaki's team Ai Hui spends a lot of money every year.
"Yoko, what do you mean by the company?" Ayumi Hamasaki complained to his backing singer.
"Ayu, don't keep working against the company, we are at a low point now, don't use the previous standards to ask the company. Yoko Yamazaki is a very gentle woman, she understands that Ayumi Hamasaki is just complaining and venting, she just needs to listen to the persuasion.
"Hmph, I think at the beginning, I'm Ayumi Hamasaki ....... Ayumi Hamasaki began to think about the past again, and now all she can get her hands on is that glorious history.
Yoko Yamazaki shook her head and didn't stop Ayumi Hamasaki from thinking about the past, it was difficult for people who had a brilliant time to accept the current situation, if you didn't let Ayumi Hamasaki often comfort herself with memories, it is estimated that Ayumi Hamasaki's private life is even worse than now.
Among Japan's famous female artists, Ayumi Hamasaki's private life is famously chaotic.
Ayumi Hamasaki doesn't care what Xiaofeng thinks, he just treats this guest as a job, Xiaofeng has no good influence on the Japanese entertainment industry, a country where gangsters are legalized, don't expect the entertainment industry to be a pure land, what makes Xiaofeng most depressed is that he has met yin media in Japan, although there is actually no loss, but he still feels awkward.
Xiaofeng and Ayumi Hamasaki's first meeting was not pleasant and came very late, and Xiaofeng did not meet Ayumi Hamasaki until the last rehearsal of the solo singing.
Xiaofeng is no stranger to this woman who has led the trend of white beauties in Japan, as a post-80s youth budding period is the hottest time for Ayumi Hamasaki.
The first time the two met, there was no communication at all, Ayumi Hamasaki just showed up and then left without two greetings, she was even more disappointed in Xiaofeng when she met, not only did she not take advantage of her popularity, but even the appearance was not qualified, not to mention the clothing problem, Xiaofeng really has no sense of fashion at all and is very willful, Daniel Zhang sent the stylist to say that it is useless to do anything.
As soon as Ayumi Hamasaki left, there was nothing to do with the communication between the two sides, and Ayumi Hamasaki's agent said a few words to Daniel Zhang and left, leaving the singing planner responsible for communicating with Daniel Zhang about the order of Xiaofeng's appearance and the performance.
Originally, everything went well, but during the rehearsal the next day, there was a disagreement about Xiaofeng's performance repertoire.
Oda Tetsuro chose a love song for Xiaofeng that he felt best reflected Xiaofeng's style, but Ayumi Hamasaki felt that the style of this song was not suitable for the theme of her solo singing this time, and asked Xiaofeng to change to a song that matched her solo singing style.
It doesn't matter which style of song Xiaofeng sings, and he doesn't like love songs very much, as a man, Xiaofeng feels that love songs are soft, Xiaofeng also asked Oda Tetsuro if he can not sing love songs, but he was reprimanded by Oda Tetsuro.
Xiaofeng admits that what Oda Tetsuro said is very right, love songs can not only best reflect singing skills, but also show Xiaofeng's ability to compose lyrics and music, for the singing career in the accumulation stage, it is very important to leave people with good singing skills and strong lyrics and composition skills, but there is no need to be a guest and choose a love song, but Oda Tetsuro's reasons for determining success or failure in detail make Xiaofeng speechless.
There is no need for the guests to deliberately cater to the singing style to choose the songs, and even the songs on the Hamasaki Ayumi are not all the same style, Hamasaki Ayumi's requirements are a bit excessive, but looking at Hamasaki Ayuki's choice of rock Xiaofeng, he didn't say anything, every man has a rock and roll dream, this sentence is very right, Xiaofeng didn't have any understanding in his previous life, but after singing alive in this life, Xiaofeng's rock heart was activated, although it didn't reach the point of being rock, but many styles Xiaofeng still prefer rock.
The rehearsal of the song was quite smooth, and Ayumi Hamasaki's team was very capable, and the effect was satisfactory after just a few practices.
Ayumi Hamasaki still didn't have any communication with Xiaofeng, and Xiaofeng wondered if the queen who had entered her 40s had early menopause.
After the rehearsal task was completed, Xiaofeng did not leave, but chose to be an audience on the sidelines, solo singing is the form that every successful singer must play, Xiaofeng's solo singing is estimated to be fast, the reason why I agreed so happily this time is to learn from the experience of rising and rising, and only after becoming a singer did I know the hardships of singers, and solo singing is not as easy as imagined.
Although Ayumi Hamasaki's solo singing time is set at four hours, a single rehearsal takes more than twice as long.
Every singing is a severe test for an artist, and if you are not prepared, you may not be able to persevere.
Not singing on a full stomach is the first big difficulty, although you don't have to eat a mouthful of food to keep an empty stomach, but every singer must stay semi-hungry when they start singing.
Then there is the problem of physical strength, it is difficult to sing and dance for so long, even if you are prepared, it is impossible to last for so long, at this time it can reflect the importance of the guests, and the guests show money, plus the time for the guests to perform, it is for the artists to rest.
Xiaofeng has also participated in solo singing before, and has been a guest performer, if you compare BB's concert with Ayumi Hamasaki's solo singing, Xiaofeng quickly discovered the difference between red and outdated.
Although the appeal of Ayumi Hamasaki in his hometown of Yokohama is not bad, and the entire venue is full, but a look at the age of the audience is very revealing, the main force of consumption in the entertainment industry is young people, not that there are no older fans, but the crazy people who really chase stars are young people, and those who are willing to spend money for idols are also young people.
BB's fans are almost the same, not to mention that Yishui is young, but Ayumi Hamasaki's fans are mainly middle-aged, and the lack of fresh blood injection marks that fans can only become fewer and fewer, which also has a lot to do with Ayumi Hamasaki's lack of works, especially influential works.
Ayumi Hamasaki's example made Xiaofeng see the cruelty of the entertainment industry, how popular Xiaofeng was when the four singers were popular, but Xiaofeng had experienced it, even if he hadn't experienced it, the strings of honors also illustrated the problem from the side, but now the four singers have gradually become history, and more of them have become the history of new artists surpassing.
The forty-year-old Ayumi Hamasaki is still full of energy on stage, but if you look closely, you can see that she is powerless, and it is not so obvious from the face, but in terms of strength and physical strength, Ayumi Hamasaki is no longer the Asian pop diva.
didn't wait for Xiaofeng to sigh more, he had to play, Hamasaki's arrogance made her not accept Ai Hui's arrangement, the guests were a friend in the circle she invited except Xiaofeng, and the other guests arranged by Ai Hui were rejected by her.
Ayumi Hamasaki thought it was okay to work hard to sing a few more songs and have fewer guests, but apparently Ayumi Hamasaki overestimated his ability, there is a difference between rehearsal and formality after all, Ayumi Hamasaki also wanted to give fans a memorable solo singing, and the result of his hard work was that Ayumi Hamasaki was tired and weak after five songs, and Xiaofeng, as one of the guests, had to go on the stage in advance.
Xiaofeng's performance effect is still good, Xiaofeng has a lot of popularity in Japan, although Japan is also relatively xenophobic, but Xiaofeng's personal strength and the song itself are commendable, and it is not so difficult to accept the strength when it is recognized, and the most acceptable thing for the Japanese is hard power crushing.
Xiaofeng completed his task according to the rehearsal process, because of the explanation of Ayumi Hamasaki's agent, Xiaofeng also used his expertise to interact with the audience, but it was obvious that the audience didn't buy it much, and Xiaofeng felt embarrassed.
With Xiaofeng's delay for a few minutes, Ayumi Hamasaki finally rested, but a serious problem was in front of him, that is, according to the current situation, the number of guests was definitely not enough, and now even if Ayumi Hamasaki lowered his head and asked Ai for help, it was too late.
The concert still continues, although everything is still going well, but Xiaofeng has heard the fatigue from Ayumi Hamasaki's singing, the song just now Ayumi Hamasaki made several mistakes because of strength problems, but fortunately because the atmosphere of the scene covered the past.
Ayumi Hamasaki's agent team is also urgently negotiating, and the plan has come up with a few, but none of them can be used, Xiaofeng seems to have a very reasonable proposal to sing less dance moves and have high feasibility, but it was rejected by Ayumi Hamasaki.
Lip-synching is something that every artist has to experience, after all, no one can guarantee that they are in good condition every day 365 days a year, there are many large-scale programs that advocate lip-synching in order to avoid singer mistakes, and Ayumi Hamasaki is not less lip-synching, but this time it came up capricious, and after being persuaded by the agent many times, Ayumi Hamasaki said that he would rather refund the ticket than lip-synching.
This solo singing made Ayumi Hamasaki disheartened, although she has entered 40, but she feels that she is not old, and she can still mix in the entertainment industry, this nearly 10 years of declining career has made Ayumi Hamasaki see a lot of things clearly, if you support her, only those fans who really like her songs will not give up.
The appearance is easy to age, the commercial value is also decreasing, only those classic songs are eternal, Ayumi Hamasaki has recognized the reality, she now just wants to repay the fans who have always supported her with her singing, but she didn't expect her to realize too late, and now she can't bring the best Ayumi Hamasaki and Ayumi Hamasaki's songs to fans.
