After the singers appeared, Tamori began his usual greeting in turn. said that it was a greeting, it was really just a greeting, and there was a brief "hello so-and-so" or "welcome so-and-so" back and forth, which is also his hosting style that has remained unchanged for many years. However, when greeting SMAP, Tamori said something extra: "Today's clothes are really exaggerated, is it a circus?"

"Yes, so there will be lions and elephants to help when the show is performed......"

The audience also cooperated very well with a surprised sound of "eh~".

"Don't run around on the train, you kid!" Tamori scolded with a smile and brought the topic back, "Then let's start today's show." ”

HIROSHI IKUSHIMA'S DUTIFUL ANNOUNCEMENT: "THE SINGERS WHO WILL PERFORM IN THE FIRST GROUP TODAY ARE DEEN, AND THEY WILL BRING YOU THEIR HIT SINGLE "PLEASE DON'T LOOK AWAY", SO PLEASE ENJOY. ”

The staff outside the arena prepared the instruments for the DEEN performance as quickly as possible, and while this time was in place, the crowd in the middle of the stage moved to the back of the stand and took their seats, leaving only the next DEEN to perform.

MS's program model is interspersed with interviews and performances, and for an hour of the show, everyone has to sit honestly in the stands, waiting to be interviewed by Talmori. People who watch the show may not feel it, but in fact, the process of sitting on it and waiting is very boring, people like SMAP and DEEN who come out of a group are okay, and they can chat with each other for a while, Ye Zhao, who is a solo singer, unless there is an acquaintance next to him......

Unfortunately, Ye Zhao's position was on the far right side of the stands, and sitting next to him was Kyoko Koizumi.

Come on, you can only fugue.

As the show progressed, when it was two-thirds of the way, Ye Zhao's seat was also moved from the second row to Tamori's side.

"The next one to appear is Ye Zhao. ”

"Please advise. Ye Zhao owed slightly.

"First of all, congratulations on the fact that the new single has won the first place on the ORICON Weekly Chart. ”

"Thank you. ”

"You used to be an underground singer, right? That song "Summer Color" caused quite a stir, it's really strange that such a good music didn't have a record company to sign you on?"

"Well," Ye Zhao smiled, "I originally wanted to make my mainstream debut, and I also sent a demo to the record company, but I was defeated." Later, when I was singing on the street, I met the staff of an underground record company, and they said that they could help me make a record, and then there was "Summer Color". ”

"Eh~ I rejected your record company at the beginning, and now my bowels are going to be repentant, right?" Tamoli laughed. As an old fritter, he naturally won't ask bluntly "Which record company rejected you", and Ye Zhao, as a newcomer, will naturally not be stupid enough to say the name of the record company in the live broadcast show and offend Sony, an industry boss.

"You look so young, how old are you?"

"A little over 19 years old. ”

"That's good," said Tamori with some envy, "when I was 19 years old, I was a country worker who didn't know anything." Then again, how did it feel to be on TV for the first time?"

"I was very nervous, and when I walked down the steps just now, I was worried that I would fall down from the air. Ye Zhao half-jokingly.

HIRAISHIMA HIROSHI QUIPPED, "IT'S NORMAL TO APPEAR FOR THE FIRST TIME, BUT THERE HAVE BEEN CASES OF FALLING DOWN THE STAIRS BEFORE, AND THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE SO NERVOUS THAT THEY ALMOST CAN'T MAKE A SOUND...... Why, can you sing it? Now it's your turn. ”

The audience erupted in good-natured laughter from the conversation.

Ye Zhao smiled: "Then stay tuned." With that, he got up from his seat and walked to the stage. There, the band was ready. Ye Zhao picked up the acoustic guitar that was placed aside, raised the position of the microphone stand a little higher, and after the adjustment, Ye Zhao swept the strings and sent out a signal that it was ready.

The show has officially begun!

As a big-name music program, at this moment, there are tens of millions of people sitting in front of the TV to watch Ye Zhao's performance, among these tens of millions of people, there are people who have bought Ye Zhao's records, but more people who don't know anything about Ye Zhao or have only heard of this name.

In front of Ye Zhao's public appearance this time, the outside world has all kinds of speculations about Ye Zhao, such as whether he is an ugly monster or has a problematic personality, and there are not a few malicious speculations, which have spread more and more widely after he signed with BEING - after all, BEING's singers are notoriously unfond of showing up, and before the public performance, Dahei Moji was even questioned that the person on the cover of the record and the person singing were two different people.

And now, Ye Zhao is standing in the center of the stage, wearing a clean white shirt and singing, this image has a great impact on the audience, people who have never known Ye Zhao before, when they see such a refreshing teenager, they get a high score at first impression;

I have to say that being good-looking will really make a profit.

At this time, the vocal lessons Ye Zhao had taken at BEING also played his role. If a singer only has the level of the car accident scene, no matter how good the song is, no matter how handsome and beautiful the person is, that kind of "unprofessionalism" will make the discerning audience unwilling to buy it, after all, it is still an era when powerful people are everywhere, and selling songs is greater than selling people.

Although his singing skills are not yet amazing, at least they will not be much worse than the performance in the CD, and they will not make people sigh in disappointment after listening to his live.

In a program watched by tens of millions of people at the same time, the publicity effect is self-evident, just that night, after the program ended, the telephone hotline of the Asahi TV MS program group was almost blown up by viewers from all over the country, in addition to various inquiries about Ye Zhao's personal information, all the callers are concerned about a question: This singer named Ye Zhao, when will he appear on the MS again?

If the hotline to the MS program team is just the audience's curiosity about this mysterious singer, then the subsequent ORICON rankings reflect the real follow-up effect.

When it debuted on MS, the sales of "Rainbow" had reached 750,000 pieces, whether it was Nagato Daiyuki or Ye Zhao himself, they were already quite satisfied with this number, after all, "Rainbow" had only been on sale for less than three weeks, and relying on subsequent sales, it was not a problem to reach one million at all. You must know that the sales of "Summer Color" have only just passed the 700,000 level, and with the arrival of autumn, this summer single has gradually retreated to the end of the charts and will soon be out of the charts.

The ORICON list counts the sales of the previous day, that is to say, if you want to see the real program effect of the MS broadcast on Friday, you have to wait until the weekend list comes out.

"Rainbow" sold more than 47,000 copies on Friday, and it is clear that the decline has been seen compared to the second week, and if there are no accidents, the momentum will become weaker and weaker, and with the release of new singles next week, it will be squeezed out of the top few charts, and starring in MS at this time is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for record sales.

On the weekend night, a fax from ORICON was sent to Nagato Daiyuki's desk, and on the long list, "Rainbow", which had retreated to second place yesterday, ranked first today with a score of 207,000 copies, throwing out more than 100,000 copies of the second place! With the blessing of these 207,000 copies, the sales of "Rainbow" officially exceeded 1 million in the third week after its release!

……

At eight o'clock in the evening, a taxi stopped near Roppongi's premium yakiniku restaurant.

The man sitting in the back seat handed over a 10,000 yuan bill, and while waiting to find the money, the taxi driver in the driver's seat stared at the rearview mirror in the car for a while, and asked with a little hesitation: "Excuse me...... Are you Mr. Ye Zhao?"

The man smiled, "Do I look like him?" ”

"Yes...... the driver nodded with some regret and handed over the money and bills, "This is looking for your money." ”

After getting out of the car and walking into the barbecue restaurant, a well-trained waitress greeted her with a decent smile on her face: "Welcome, is it a person or does it have an appointment?"

"My friend and I made an appointment in the Qishuiting box. ”

"Please come with me. The waitress makes a "please" gesture with her palms upward.

The Nanasuitei box is a typical Japanese-style decoration, and the moment the paper door is opened, Masao Akashi, who is sitting at the head of the long low table, gulps down his beer and complains, "You're really late." ”

"Sorry, sorry, I was a little delayed on the way. Ye Zhao smiled, sat down on the porch, and took off his shoes. With his back to the box, he didn't notice that two people had crept up behind him.

With the two muffled sounds of "bang!" and "bang!", the defenseless Ye Zhao turned around suddenly, and Dahei Moji and Mika Kawashima stood there holding the colored paper flower cartridge, with a prank smile on their faces.

"Ye Jun, congratulations on your promotion to a million single singer!"

As soon as Dahei Moji's words fell, everyone in the box applauded and said, "Congratulations!"

"Thank you!" Ye Zhao bowed.

At this time, he realized how luxurious the lineup of this box was. In addition to his arrangers Masao Akashi, Daikoku Moji and Mika Kawashima, there are Takahiro Matsumoto of B'z, Noboru Uesugi of WANDS, lead singer of TUBE, Wataru Maeda, and guitarist Michiya Haruhata. Among these people, B'z, WANDS, TUBE, and Daikoku Moji are all top singers who already have millions of singles and albums, and Masao Akashi and Mika Kawashima are the heroes behind the support of these top singers.
