Chapter 637: Beyond THE SUN?
Speaking of which, it is not for nothing that SMAP is called the "National Celestial Regiment".
In addition to their singing careers, the five members of the troupe are also active in various fields, such as variety show hosting, TV dramas, stages, and radio.
Among them, the most outstanding, of course, is one of the core "great gods", Takuya Kimura.
Takuya Kimura can not only lead the group forward as the lead singer of SMAP, but also use his superb acting skills to bring more attention to SMAP...
As for the other core, Masahiro Nakaju is known as the MC who knows the most in the idol world!
than he can preside, no better than him singing;
He who sings better than him does not preside over it;
Even if it's better than him in singing and hosting, it's not as good as him in cooking...
It can be said that he is also one of the very versatile artists in the entertainment industry.
He is also the first person in the entire circle to host a non-funny artist!
After all, people are 25-year-old hosting geniuses who have served as red and white hosts, and their emotional intelligence and eloquence are all top-notch...
However, there is only one SMAP!
It's hard to find another middle house.
That's why, when Mary Kitagawa asked everyone for their opinions, they didn't immediately think of someone, but fell into thought.
The silence didn't last long, though, and after a few minutes or so, someone finally broke the eerie silence.
"In terms of qualifications, the candidate for the replacement should be selected from the three combinations of "TOKIO", "V6", and "KinKi Kids". ”
Speaking out, it is still the third person in Genesys, Bai Ha Sejie.
In addition to the head of the publicity department, Shiranami Sejie also has another identity, that is, the manager in charge of KinKi Kids.
Of course, he didn't say the names of these three groups for the sake of his own KinKi Kids.
In the Japanese entertainment industry, where the relationship between seniors and seniors is extremely important, even if the other party debuts a day earlier than you, even if you are dozens of years older, you must respectfully call him "senior".
Therefore, from the perspective of seniority, the three combinations proposed by Bai Bo Sejie are the most qualified and strong candidates to become the successor of Nakaju Masahiro.
The three groups "TOKIO", "V6", and "KinKi Kids" were the first three groups to debut in Jennis, in addition to the "Junior Team" and SMAP.
"TOKIO" debuted in 1994.
"V6" debuted in 1995.
"KinKi Kids" debuted in 1997.
Each group has debuted for more than ten years, and basically from the perspective of qualifications, it is fully qualified for such an important task as hosting red and white.
However, this answer made the old man Kitagawa, who was sitting on the upper seat, frown.
The sharp-eyed Mary Kitagawa also noticed the change in her brother's expression and knew it in her heart.
It seems that his younger brother is not very optimistic about whether these three combinations of people can become red and white hosts...
After Bai Bosejie finished speaking, she immediately asked out loud, "What about the others? Do you have any other opinions?"
All the people present were high-level executives who could speak to Denis.
However, at this time, one by one they seemed to have become mute, unable to say anything...
In the end, I was afraid that my opinion would not be in line with Mary Kitagawa's wishes.
Genesy, founded by Johnny Kitagawa and Mary Kitagawa, has grown from an early family business to a board-based business over the years.
However, after all, the two sisters and brothers of Kitagawa have been in charge of Genesys for many years, and they have accumulated prestige for a long time, and in major matters, they are basically decided by the old man Kitagawa and the old lady together.
Therefore, although the directors have real power, they can also put forward their opinions in front of the two bigwigs.
However, subconsciously, it is still a little cowardly...
What's more, among the people present, there was no SMAP agent, the boss of the Iijima faction, one of the two major factions of Denis, Iijima Sanchi.
Naturally, the meeting directly turned into a hall of words of the Fujishima faction...
Seeing that everyone didn't answer, they just lowered their heads, pretending to think, and the old lady who was a little grumpy also directly named her.
"Keiko, tell me about it. ”
Keiko Fujishima, who was named, was also not stage frightened, and said directly.
"I don't think the three combinations of TOKIO, V6, and KinKi Kids are very suitable. ”
As soon as these words came out, all the eyes in the conference room focused on her.
"I'm sorry, Director Bai Bo. ”
"It's okay, Miss Keiko doesn't have to care. Shiraba Sejie smiled and waved his hand lightly, indicating that he had no relationship.
The old lady was very curious about her daughter's words.
"Oh, how do you say?"
Her mother's encouraging eyes made Keiko Fujishima more confident, "I think that qualifications are important, but the ability to host and influence are also very important. ”
"Although the three groups of TOKIO, V6, and KinKi Kids all have titled fan groups, the ratings are also very good. However, in recent years, the influence has been slowly declining. ”
"Especially among young people in the 10th and 20th generations, the popularity of the three groups is still a bit lacking. ”
"Moreover, according to NHK's idea, since we want to attract more young people to watch the Red and White Song Festival, we will definitely give priority to some people who are very popular and influential among young people to serve as hosts. ”
"What's more, we don't have to choose one of them, wouldn't it be better for all members of the group to host together?!"
"Co-host?"
This novel suggestion made everyone present shine!
Judging from Keiko Fujishima's confident expression and well-organized speech, she should have done her homework on this issue a long time ago, so she was so confident.
At this time, the old man Kitagawa, who was sitting on the upper seat, kept his head down and didn't say a word, suddenly asked out loud.
"So, who do you think is more suitable?"
As if waiting for Kitagawa to ask this question, in less than a second, Keiko Fujishima immediately gave her own answer.
"Arashi!"
"Tell me why. ”
"As we all know, thanks to the huge reflection of "Boys Over Flowers", since last year, Lan's upward momentum has been very rapid. ”
Especially in the past two years, Lan's influence among young people has multiplied. ”
"This is evident from the skyrocketing sales of singles, the second place on the annual singles chart for two consecutive years (the first place belongs to THE SUN), and the successful concert in the country, so you can know that it is the era of Arashi!"
"If at this time, we can push behind their backs, with the huge influence of red and white, I think it is not impossible to surpass THE SUN and become the next national group!"
"BEYOND THE SUN... Is it?"
