Chapter 168: The End of the Year
The "bomb" that came out of Chiba Masaki's mouth shocked Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Shin Ogawa all at once.
Sakamoto Kiyoshi was also frightened, and directly scolded in Chinese.
Even Xiao Chuan really seemed to be frightened, and let out a loud "?!!" to express his surprise.
"What then?" asked Chiba.
"There is no way, looking at the situation ahead, it should be impossible to go in a short time. "Uncle is also very anxious.
At this time, Shin Ogawa and Masaki Chiba both looked at Kiyoshi Sakamoto, as if expecting him to come up with a way to make them catch up with the red and white rehearsal.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto also lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and asked the uncle sitting in the driver's seat, "Here, how far is it from NHK?"
"Huh? About five kilometers. ”
"How much time do we have left until rehearsal?" asked Kiyoshi Sakamoto again.
"About thirty minutes, what's wrong?" the uncle was a little puzzled, not knowing why Kiyoshi Sakamoto asked this.
"Thirty minutes, five kilometers? Well, that's enough. Kiyoshi Sakamoto muttered to himself.
"Qing, what should I do? There are still thirty minutes, but looking at this traffic jam, it may take an hour to drive five kilometers!" Xiao Chuanzhen was also a little anxious at this time, and his face was a little calm.
"It's okay, you tie your shoelaces tightly, and we'll go right away. With that, Kiyoshi Sakamoto bent down and tied up his shoelaces.
"Tie your shoes?"
"Are you trying to ?!!?"
Chiba hasn't reacted yet, and Ogawa probably already knows what Kiyoshi Sakamoto means.
"That's right, let's run to NHK!"
After saying this, Sakamoto Kiyoshi also tied his shoelaces and raised his head to look at Ogawa Shin and Chiba Masaki.
What the two saw was not Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was usually humorous and funny, but Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who had bright eyes and a resolute expression!
seemed to be infected by Sakamoto Kiyoshi's firm tone and calm expression, and the two of them didn't speak at this time, they just bent down and tied up their shoes.
"I think that the clear idea is the best way in the current situation, but you have to remember, if you can't run, don't force yourself, you can call... ”
"Impossible!"
Before the uncle could finish his words, Kiyoshi Sakamoto interrupted him loudly.
"A normal adult only needs 30 minutes to run 5 kilometers, while we are young and strong young people, and we usually exercise regularly, 25 minutes is enough. ”
"So, there's no such thing as giving up halfway through, or being late. ”
"We'll be able to get to NHK before the rehearsal!"
"Can you do it?!"
A loud speech made Ogawa Shin and Chiba Masaki instantly energetic.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
The two replied enthusiastically.
"Then, let's go!!"
As soon as the words fell, Kiyoshi Sakamoto opened the car door, jumped out of the car first, and ran in the direction of NHK.
Syllable!
Syllable!
Ogawa Shin and Chiba Masaki also jumped out of the car, followed in the footsteps of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, and ran together.
Looking at the three of them running on the blocked road, Uncle Ishida, who was sitting in the driver's seat, also sighed.
"It's nice to be young!"
。。。。。。
Sure enough, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's estimate was not wrong, but he underestimated Masaki Ogawa and Masaki Chiba too much.
Originally, it was thought that it would take at least 25 minutes for the two of them to complete this 5-kilometer journey, but both of them burst into the potential of their bodies, and it only took 22 minutes to complete this irregular 5-kilometer journey.
And Kiyoshi Sakamoto can actually run to NHK in fifteen minutes, but in order to take care of the two, he also slowed down his speed and crossed the "finish line" with the two.
NHK TV.
The rehearsal of the SUN band, the second rehearsal at the Red and White Song Club, was not late after all.
After a short break, the trio concentrated and began the rehearsal under the guidance of the live program PD.
。。。。。。
Speaking of the Red and White Song Club, for Sakamoto Kiyoshi, it can be described as one of his blessed places.
Because at this time last year, Kiyoshi Sakamoto appeared in red and white in a row as a personal identity and as a band, and became the first artist in the history of red and white to sing two songs in a row!
You must know that the rule that each person in the Red and White Song Club can only sing one song has not been broken until the appearance of Kiyoshi Sakamoto.
Last year was really a year for Kiyoshi Sakamoto, and the entire entertainment industry was eyed by it, so in order to keep declining ratings, Red and White also made a wave of things, broke the convention, and let Kiyoshi Sakamoto appear continuously as a personal identity and as a band.
Such a move, sure enough, made last year's red and white stop the decline in ratings, and rebounded.
However, it is all built on the great achievements of last year with Kiyoshi Sakamoto and THE SUN...
However, this year, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was told that he could only perform on stage as an individual, and THE SUN did not have the opportunity to appear on the red and white stage like last year.
The reason is that the results of the band THE SUN this year, although it was still during the release of the single, the battle with Denis's Arashi sales also attracted the attention of the society, even if the single "PLANET" sold nearly one million copies.
But, at the end of the day, this year's THE SUN band just found a strengthened version of the single, and musically, it wasn't too active...
Therefore, because of this, when the organizers of this year's Red and White Song Festival sent an invitation, the three of them were not like other artists who were ecstatic when they received the red and white invitation, but were collectively silent.
Seeing that he didn't have a chance to appear in red and white this year, Chiba Masaki, the most childish of the three, couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes, clenched his fists, and silently let the tears flow.
And Ogawa Zhen, who usually doesn't care about his expression, this time too, pursed his mouth tightly, his eyes were red, and he looked up at the ceiling, trying not to let his tears stay.
When he saw his two teammates, such an unwilling look, Sakamoto Kiyoshi instantly made a decision in his heart.
"Don't cry, I'll find a way to take you to the red and white!"
After Kiyoshi Sakamoto said this sentence categorically, he ran to find the president of Sony, Naoki Kitagawa.
Standing in front of the big guy Kitagawa, Kiyoshi Sakamoto bowed ninety degrees and said, "President, please let us THE SUN, go red and white!"
"QINGJUN, ALTHOUGH I KNOW THAT YOU THE SUN DIDN'T RECEIVE AN INVITATION FROM RED AND WHITE, BUT, IT'S USELESS FOR YOU TO BEG ME, AFTER ALL, IT'S NOT CHILD'S PLAY, IT'S NOT MY DECISION... ”
Kitagawa Naoki is also a little confused.,I don't know how Sakamoto Kiyoshi asked for himself here.。。。
"No, president, I mean, I'm willing to use my personal red and white acting qualifications for THE SUN's red and white acting qualifications, that is, use the three members of the SUN band to replace me personally and appear on the red and white stage!"
"However, this one needs your help, President!"
"So, please!"
After Sakamoto Kiyoshi said this, he immediately bowed deeply again.
This is Kiyoshi Sakamoto's approach.
Since you can be red and white, it is better to exchange your own quota for a band quota, so that you can not only let Ogawa Shin and Chiba Masaki also appear on the red and white stage together, but also let Sakamoto Kiyoshi not have to be difficult to do, it is simply the best of both worlds!
For the Red and White Song Club, it's not bad, anyway, Sakamoto Kiyoshi alone or THE SUN band, anyone can be on it, as long as there is Sakamoto Kiyoshi;
And for Ogawa Shin and Chiba Masaki, after being on the red and white stage, what a pity and unwillingness it is to not be able to go on again.
It was only in this way that Kiyoshi Sakamoto came up with this solution.
It's just a small change from a personal form of performance to a band performance, of course, for an artist like Kiyoshi Sakamoto.
However, for Sony Records' president Kitagawa, it's just a trivial matter that needs to say a few words to the red and white organizers.
That's why Kiyoshi Sakamoto came to Naoki Kitagawa and asked him to help with this.
And after hearing Sakamoto Kiyoshi's method, Kitagawa Naoki also pondered for a moment before he spoke, "Well, okay! I'll tell NHK." ”
"Thank you very much!"
Kiyoshi Sakamoto bowed and thanked him.
Finally, when Kiyoshi Sakamoto turned around and was about to leave the president's office, Naoki Kitagawa stopped him.
"Qingjun?"
"Yes?"
"Do you know that doing this might make the red and white side hate you. Kitagawa looked at Kiyoshi Sakamoto with a playful look on his face and said this.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was originally a little flustered, heard the words of the big guy Kitagawa, and a smile slowly crept up his face, and replied with a smile.
"There's no way, who called me their Leader...
。。。。。。
That's it, after the big guy Beichuan said this, the red and white organizers also felt that this was a complete trivial matter, so, in the end, for the second year in a row, THE SUN will meet NHK with the people of the whole country at the red and white song party.
When they learned that they could be on the red and white again, both Ogawa Shin and Chiba Masaki hugged Kiyoshi Sakamoto tightly and hugged the Leader who had led their team from the beginning and kept moving forward!
"Yogada (that's great) !!"
"Hmm!"
The three of them hugged each other, screaming and shouting, releasing the feelings in their hearts to the fullest.
。。。。。。
NHK Concert Hall, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo.
At 7:15 p.m., in 2005, the 56th Red and White Song Club officially began!
Although THE SUN has not released too many records in the music industry this year, just this second band single, a record, has already made THE SUN earn enough eyeballs this year.
Also, with the blessing of Kiyoshi Sakamoto's personal achievements, the influence of THE SUN cannot be underestimated.
Therefore, at this year's Red and White Song Party, the SUN band was still put in the finale of the first part by the organizer.
"Yo Xi, I'm going to do it this year!"
In the background, the three sons of THE SUN folded their hands together, and Kiyoshi Sakamoto shouted vigorously.
"Hi !!" Ogawa and Chiba also responded loudly.
Immediately, the hands of the three of them were raised to the sky together.
Ask for a recommendation ticket!!Ask for a reward!!Thank you!!
