When people think of World Cup songs, they think of either "Ole-ole" or "Waka-waka".

"Waka-Waka" is a masterpiece of Colombian female singer Shakira, one of the promotional songs of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Although it is not the official theme song, this song has captured the ears of fans around the world in one fell swoop with its simple melody that "can be understood with muscles growing in the head", and also made Shakira enter the small circle of world-class divas.

However, after this song became popular, it was revealed that it was a "borrowing" work, both the lyrics and the melody, which were exactly the same as a song released by a girl band in Cameroon in 1982.

In fact, Waka is a verb in African Swahili, which means to shine, and this melody belongs to the category of African folk songs, so FIFA's explanation of "borrowing" seems to make sense.

But......

Shakira seems to have borrowed a little too much.

"La-Bicicleta" was accused of plagiarism by Cuban singer Livam, and "Loca" was accused of plagiarism by Dominican singer Ramon......

In short, Shakira has been fighting infringement lawsuits for a long time, and most of them have been successful.

That doesn't mean she's fine.

There are three reasons for this:

First, Shakira is very smart, she borrows from Third World songs, such as "La-Bicicleta", which is really nothing more than a victory for "Sony Columbia" over an unknown small company.

Second, Shakira will marry, and it is not surprising that she, as the daughter-in-law of the former president of Argentina, is treated preferentially. Of course, after she remarried, this help was gone.

Third, the power of FIFA. FIFA needs to promote football through music, especially to develop the female fan market, so Shakira has appeared on the stage of the World Cup three times. If you don't help her, won't all these efforts be in vain?

However, with so much help, Shakira couldn't bear to die by herself, and was finally sent to the dock by the Spanish prosecutor for tax evasion.

That's another topic, just plagiarism.

Loca was one of the few cases Shakira lost, and it was an interesting story that a U.S. judge convicted of plagiarism.

Shakira's side argued that "Loca" was a collaboration between Shakira and the rapper, and was adapted from a song by the other party with the permission of the other party.

From the original to the adaptation, it was enough to slap the face, but the matter is not over, and the drama is that the song is plagiarized from the plaintiff's song......

How similar this is to the current scene.

……

Katsuto Matsuura was completely speechless, he could be sure that he had not plagiarized Lin Hai's work, but Lin Hai came up with stronger evidence.

"It's probably called self-employment......

Lin Hai smiled and turned off the MP3.

Katsuto Matsuura is worthy of being an old fritter who has been in the mix for many years, and he quickly changed his attitude and said apologetically: "Very."

I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen, I'll find out the truth as soon as possible, and I'll give the outside world a reasonable explanation......"

This is throwing the blame, and I don't know which temporary union has suffered an unwarranted disaster.

Although they knew that Matsuura was talking nonsense, the two hosts still had to cooperate and dress stupidly, saying that "it is not the responsibility of President Matsuura".

Hamada Masako also deliberately played with "Cameroon" and "turtle".

It's a pity that Masako Hamada didn't succeed in saving the scene.

The audience booed at him regardless of Katsuto Matsuura's share, and Katsuto Matsuura had to call Miku Koda, who was already stupid, after a brief explanation, and left the studio in embarrassment.

……

"That guy is amazing!"

Masami Nagasawa looked at Lin Hai dumbfounded, but she didn't expect him to drive away a big man who looked very powerful in just a few words.

He said that he was powerful, but he couldn't tell where it was.

In any case, Masami's attitude towards Lin Hai has changed a lot, because that bad woman has also been driven away! Little Lori has just eaten a stomach full of vinegar, and she always feels that the bad woman has been flattering her favorite brother Masashi......

I can't forgive me!

"It's unexpected. Nagasawa Kazuaki sighed: "Although I don't know the specific reason, the president of Ai Hui obviously fell into the trap of the other party......

"Otherwise, how could President Kawamoto value him?"

The club manager continued on to the unfinished topic.

After talking about the "advertising turmoil", the manager squeezed his eyebrows and said, "That guy named Maruda Yoshiaki clearly wants to-"

Noticing the little Lori who was eavesdropping curiously, the manager changed his words and said, "Anyway, you understand." As a result, he couldn't steal chickens, but was put on a show by that kid, and now he is assigned to an affiliated company......"

Nagasawa and Ming frowned and said, "So I will never allow Yami to enter the entertainment world......"

Hearing her father's statement, little Lori pursed her mouth. She proposed more than once that she wanted to sign up for idol auditions, but her father sternly rejected her.

……

Little Lori is actually not interested in acting, and there are other reasons why she wants to be an artist.

As a high-level apprentice cultivated by Nagasawa and Ming himself, Masashi Nakayama has a very close relationship with Nagasawa's family. When little Lori was very young, she liked Masashi Nakayama very much, and the latter once told her that he would marry her when she grew up.

Masashi Nakayama was joking, but little Lori took it seriously, but before she graduated from elementary school, Masashi Nakayama married actress Tomoko Ikuta, which made little Lori very sad for a while.

In addition to being sad, Xiao Lori attributed the reason to "I am not an artist", so I pestered my parents every now and then, wanting to participate in the idol audition.

Nagasawa and Ming are old-fashioned men, he knows how chaotic the entertainment industry is, of course, Yan's daughter jumps into the fire pit, and from time to time she thinks about it, and she will deliberately beat it.

It's a pity that he forgot that suppressing too much will arouse rebellion.

……

Masami Nagasawa ignored her father angrily and looked at the stage.

dance

There was some chaos on stage at this time, and the director had to temporarily interrupt the recording and run to the stage to discuss countermeasures with the host.

"Look what a mess you've made!"

Song himself suppressed his voice and scolded Lin Hai angrily.

"Well, well, don't get excited, I'm afraid Lin Jun also has a last resort......"

As soon as the show was suspended, Masako Hamada suddenly changed back to Mr. Yes, and even the speed of speech slowed down.

Under the persuasion of his partner, Song Shizhi suppressed his anger and said to Lin Hai: "I don't know about your festival, but in my opinion, you are clearly a grasshopper shaking the tree, do you think you can knock down the other party in this way?"

Lin Hai shook his head and said: "I'm not so naïve, but there are some things I have to do, it's a big deal for me to mix underground music......

"I support you. Yutaka Tanabe said succinctly.

"Are you stupid?"

Hamada Masako slapped Yutaka Tanabe on the head and scolded: "Since it is reasonable, then take out the courage of a Kansai boy, and it is too unambitious to mix underground music or something! Even if you can't be a singer, you can be a comedy artist!"

On the surface, he was scolding Yutaka Tanabe, but in fact he was expressing support for Lin Hai.

Lin Hai hurriedly thanked him.

"Why don't you join Yoshimoto. Hamada said and asked his partner, "What do you think?"

"It's a good idea. ”

Matsumoto's anger disappeared at this time, but he had a headache about what to do with the show, and he couldn't help but complain: "How much I wish this was 'Toruko's house' ...... now"

……

"Toruko's House" is a talk show on North Korean TV, and the host is the famous writer Tetsuko Kuroyanagi. That program aired every Monday to Friday, to Lin Hai crossing, with a total of more than 10,000 episodes, is the Guinness Book of Records "hosted by the same host and aired the most episodes of the TV program".

Because it is broadcast five times a week, "Toriko's House" will shoot several episodes in advance, and in case of emergencies, the broadcast content can be temporarily changed.

For example, in 1993, after the suicide of Akisuke Nomura, "Teruko's House" temporarily changed the content of the broadcast.

The implication of Matsu's ambition is that it would be nice if there were alternatives.

It's a pity that HEY3 is recorded and broadcast once a week, and in order to wait for Masashi Nakayama to return to China, the recording was postponed to Monday, and now it is only a few hours before the show is broadcast.

Lin Hai knew what was their biggest headache right now.

The conflict between Hayashi Hai and Katsuto Matsuura will definitely not be broadcast, but what about Koda's previous performance?

When it comes to copyright issues, that performance must not be broadcast.

Why?

This is related to the copyright law - in the case of television and other programs, when a musical work is involved, the performer and the broadcaster must first obtain the consent of the copyright owner and pay the corresponding fee to the other party.

Don't talk about singing, you have to pay for even humming two sentences.

This puts this episode of the show into a very embarrassing situation-

First of all, "Waka" sung by Koda Rami

- Waka cannot be broadcast.

Secondly, as a music talk show, what's the deal if there is no performance? So the scenes involving Koda have to be cut.

The question is, with all of them cut out, how much is left?

Just then, the cameraman walked over.

The cameraman whispered: "I just took a look at the footage I shot before, and the content after Lin Jun's appearance is basically fine." ”

Matsu Shizhi hurriedly asked, "What does no question mean?"

The cameraman said strangely: "After he appeared, that girl basically didn't appear on the camera......"

Song himself was stunned for a moment, and his watch also became strange, and asked Lin Hai: "You did it on purpose, right?"

"yes. ”

Lin Hai shrugged his shoulders and said, "Otherwise, why would I risk being beaten on the head and go to Mr. Hamada?"

"Uh......"

Masako Hamada's hands itched again, so Yutaka Tanabe's head was ravaged again.

Matsu ignored his partner, and then asked the cameraman, "How much do you think you can keep after the cut?"

"About thirty minutes. ”

"It was better than expected. ”

Song himself breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lin Hai: "Anyway, you made the trouble, what do you say?"

"I prepared two songs, and I could make up about 10 minutes. ”

"I warn you, that song can't be sung. ”

"I know, I was just joking. ”

Lin Hai knew Ben's copyright system, how could he make trouble for himself.

When Lin Hai said this, he said apologetically to Zhongshan Masashi: "It's that Zhongshan's predecessors may need to rerecord some content, I'm really sorry......"

"No, no, it doesn't matter. ”

Masashi Nakayama is a good old man and doesn't have a star shelf.

……

After a quick discussion, the show resumes recording.

Several people sat back on the sofa, and Hamada began to interact with Lin Hai, however......

The audience obviously hasn't come out of the incident just now, and the atmosphere is not too strong.

Lin Hai thought for a while and said decisively: "The performance is advanced." ”

Hamada also knew that the awkward conversation would not have a good effect, so he nodded, then stood up, and said to the audience: "Lin Jun brought a surprise to everyone today, let's see what kind of performance he will bring?"

As he spoke, Lin Hai glanced at the audience, thought about it, stood up, clapped his hands, and said, "I need an audience to cooperate with my next performance, is there any audience interested?"

……

Hearing Lin Hai's words, the originally absent-minded audience finally lit up.

Masami Nagasawa is no exception.

I have the impression that when HEY3's guests perform, they never invite the audience to participate, after all, no one knows what level the audience is, what if the performance is messed up?

What's more, Lin Hai has never even released a single, and no one has heard his songs, so even if he wants to hum, he can't do it.

It's a backup dance, right?

Thinking so, Masami raised her hand high.

If you can show your face on TV, isn't it one step closer to becoming an artist?

Nagasawa and Ming looked at their daughter's excited appearance, shook their heads helplessly, and thought to themselves, how could it happen to be chosen by so many audiences?

However, to his surprise, Lin Hai actually pointed to Masami Nagasawa-

"It's decided, it's you!"

……

Masami Nagasawa walked from the audience to the stage amid the applause of the audience's encouragement, and only then did she feel apprehensive, thinking that Lin Hai deliberately chose her, should she want to wait for an opportunity to retaliate, right?

Thinking like this, she hurriedly came to the side of Zhongshan Masashi.

Hamada Masako was surprised by Lin Hai's vision, but he didn't expect him to point out a beauty blank with a finger in his hand.

"Lin Jun's vision is really extraordinary...... "Hamada Masako looked at Masami Nagasawa exaggeratedly and asked, "Please introduce yourself to everyone." ”

As he spoke, he pointed at the camera.

Masami Nagasawa stood next to Brother Masashi, felt his courage doubled, smiled sweetly at the camera, and said, "Hello everyone, I'm Masami Nagasawa from Iwata City, Shizuoka Prefecture, please advise!"

"What a polite little girl. Hamada Masako sighed with emotion and said to Masashi Nakayama: "Nakayama-kun used to live in Iwata City, right? Maybe you've seen it before." ”

"Yes. ”

Masashi Nakayama said, "I used to play for Iwata Joy Football Club, but in fact, Masami-chan is the daughter of my mentor. ”

"Huh?"

Hamada Masako instantly froze, and then patted Yutaka Tanabe on the head and asked Lin Hai: "This is not arranged by you, right?"

"yes. ”

Lin Hai said to the camera seriously: "Secretly tell everyone that I have acquired Fuji TV, and Hamada is actually my employee, so he doesn't dare to hit me on the head......"

There was more laughter in the audience.

But it's not enough.

In the middle of the gag, a staff member dressed as a waiter in a French restaurant pushes a food truck.

It is said to be a dining car, but it is actually a large flatbed cart with pots and pans and beef buckets on it, and several pans of different sizes hanging on it.

The audience was confused.

What's going on? Isn't it a music show? Is it going to be a food show?

……

The cameraman obviously knew it and took the initiative to bring the camera over.

Lin Hai pretended to be mysterious at the camera and said: "Now, it's time to witness the miracle......"

As he spoke, he lifted the lid of one of the stainless steel barrels and pulled one, two, three out of it...... Dried bonito.

"Wait, what's this?" Hamada pretended to be stupid, "Is this a souvenir you brought to everyone?"

Disgusted, he took the dried bonito and showed it to the camera, Hamada Masako said: "There is no doubt that this is dried bonito, so, what is the performance that Lin Jun brought to everyone?"

"Noise. ”

Lin Hai said, handing a dried bonito and a frying pan to Masami Nagasawa, and said, "All in all, you can do whatever you want." ”

……

The stage lights began to dim, and then several beams of light fell on the dining car

and Lin Kai, Hikaru Utada, and Masami Nagasawa, who are standing around the dining car.

As for Yutaka Tanabe, the poor fellow was sitting in the back of the dining cart, almost all blocked.

Lin Hai held the microphone and gestured to Masami Nagasawa, who thought about it blankly, and used dried bonito to hit the frying pan hard.

"When ......"

After a crisp sound, Hikaru Utada held the microphone and opened his mouth in amazement.

"I'm friends with the monsters, and they're hiding in the bottom, and they're not as good as the sounds in my head. Do you want to save me, don't hold your breath, you think I'm crazy, hehe, you think I'm crazy......"

Despite the lack of accompaniment, this chorus from "The-Monster" made every audience feel tingling with the electricity spreading through their bodies.

I have to say that Hikaru Utada has made very rapid progress under the role of MISIA's example, she has been insisting on morning jogging recently, and at the same time quitting desserts and cola, and her breath has significantly improved compared to her debut in her previous life.

In fact, in the recorded version, this section was sung by MISIA, but Hikaru Utada also practiced well, after all, MISIA can't come to an occasion like this.

Hikaru Utada's chorus had just ended, and with Yutaka Tanabe's "drum beat", Lin Hai spoke-

"I crave fame, but I don't want Newsweek's headline attention, well, I guess I can't be too picky as a beggar, I want my music to get noticed, and I want to be in front of everyone and I want not to be bothered, I'm sorry......"

……

Rap?

The audience never expected that what Lin Hai brought was actually a rap.

Rap is definitely niche music at the moment, the most popular on the market is electronic dance music, rap is usually only used as an embellishment in some songs, professional DJs are mostly mixed underground, and there are few rap works in the real sense on the record list.

But...... It's so emotional!

The audience, who are accustomed to hearing electronic dance music, suddenly heard the rap with a strong American flavor, and their eyes suddenly lit up, and they couldn't help but beat along with the rhythm.

The two hosts standing on the edge of the audience nodded one after another, although the performance form was a little funny, but Lin Hai's performance was impeccable.

Among the various song types, the difficulty of singing slow songs is usually the lowest, while dance music and rap have high requirements for singing skills, and there are high requirements for the singer's rhythm control, breath, pitch and even voice identification.

Even if you don't talk about singing skills, just by pronouncing words, Lin Hai is enough to throw off most of the singers for eight streets.

Of course, for the audience, the most eye-catching thing is not Lin Hai, not Hikaru Utada, or even Yutaka Tanabe, who knocks out flowers with a bunch of kitchen utensils, but Masami Nagasawa......

A little Lori, holding dried bonito, banging at the pan with the rhythm, this scene simply made everyone's hearts cute......
