Chapter 170: The Coming Year 2006
After giving the most shocking performance of the night, Kiyoshi Sakamoto bowed deeply in the applause that could not be subdued for a long time before walking off the stage.
Sakamoto Kiyoshi, who came at once, didn't have time yet, and when he said hello to Ogawa Shin and Chiba Masaki, who rushed to the scene, he was pulled backstage by the organizer.
It's not about performing, but as a guest of honor in the next link, presenting awards to the winners of the Gold Record Award.
Generally, at the award ceremony, the winners of the previous session will be invited back as the guest of honor to present the awards to the winners of this year.
However, there will always be surprises.
It's like this year's Record Awards.
Last year's Gold Award winners had the name of Kiyoshi Sakamoto and the name of The Sun.
And among the songs shortlisted for the gold award this year, the names of Kiyoshi Sakamoto and The Sun appear again.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto "Letter ~ To Fifteen-Year-Old You ~", and The Su".
So,In this way, there is a possibility that Sakamoto Kiyoshi, the winner of the last year, will present the award to himself this year.,And this possibility is still very high.γγγ
γγγγγγ
As expected, when Kiyoshi Sakamoto took the trophy of the Gold Award and read the name of one of the Gold Award winners, he knew that it should be intentional by the organizers of the Record Awards.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto, "Letter ~ To Fifteen-Year-Old You ~". β
In other words, if the winner is usually at the award ceremony, the winner will go up to receive the award in person, but what if the winner is on the stage?
Kiyoshi Sakamoto said, I'm very confused, I haven't encountered this situation, what should I do next?
A little rushed, online etc!
However, time waits for no one, and Kiyoshi Sakamoto can only improvise and come up with a solution.
I saw him standing on the stage, holding the medal with one hand and the microphone with the other, and said, "Then, please ask Kiyosan Sakamoto to come to the stage to accept the award." β
After saying that, he took a step to the side, and changed the microphone and medal in his hand.
Then he said, "Thank you, thank you very much to the organizers, the Japan Composers Association, and the Japan Record Awards Organizing Committee for their recognition... β
Let's go, Sakamoto Kiyoshi took the medal and began his acceptance speech.
And the artists and the audience in the audience were all confused at first, two faces were confused, and hundreds of people were confused, but after a while, everyone laughed.
Seeing that the audience in the audience laughed, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was on the stage, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Luckily, they all got my meme. β
It turned out that Sakamoto Kiyoshi's series of actions on stage were all to perform a stalk.
A meme that awards himself to himself.
At the beginning of his speech, Kiyoshi Sakamoto played the role of an award presenter, but after taking a step, he changed the medal and microphone in his hand and began to say the acceptance speech.
This is how to go from being an award presenter to an award-winning person in an instant.
Fortunately, Sakamoto Kiyoshi's acting skills have improved greatly compared to before, otherwise, if the effect of the performance is not so real, the audience will not be able to see that he is deliberately playing a stalk.
The audience laughed, which means that they understood Kiyoshi Sakamoto's stalk.
In this way, in a slightly embarrassing situation, Sakamoto Kiyoshi used his superb acting skills to get through.

As a result, the next artist to win the gold medal is Kiyoshi Sakamoto again... The Sun.
By the time the award presenters on stage said the name of the winner, Kiyoshi Sakamoto had already set a new record again.
He became the first singer to win the Record Awards for both solo singles and group singles for two consecutive years!!
Next, whether Kiyoshi Sakamoto can set another record and become the first solo single to win the record award for two consecutive years depends on the name of the next award presenter, whether it is his own name or not...
However, this year, although Sakamoto Kiyoshi has a single of more than two million, a single of more than one million, and an album of more than one million, ORI singles and album charts are both the first place, but he still can't win the record award almost without suspense like last year.
Because, this year, he has a big opponent.
The new generation of singers, sexy singers, Koda is not here!
In 2005, if there was such a market survey: which male and female singer did you listen to the most this year?
Of those hundred people, there will definitely be more than forty people who say the name of Kiyoshi Sakamoto.
However, among the 100 people, the second one who received 20 votes was a female singer who only became popular this year.
Koda is not here!
Koda is not like Kiyoshi Sakamoto, as soon as she debuted, she achieved great results in one fell swoop, and when she debuted in 2000, she did not sing jpop, but sang rhythm and blues.
In this way, she was different from several typical singers at that time, such as Ayumi Hamasaki, Namie Amuro and others, but, perhaps because of the difference in style, in the context of the jpop limelight, her style was naturally not accepted by the public, resulting in her not going against the wind and becoming an instant hit.
However, it is gold, it always shines, and of course, there is the strong support of Ai Hui Records.
In 2004, after Ai Hui established a style for her, a "sexy and handsome" singer was rising.
"Butterfly" was released in 05, and the cover finally grasped the "sexy and handsome" side that later became Koda's personal style, and together with the excellent songs, it sold more than 100,000 sales.
In the same year, there was also her first national tour in five years of debut, and her first selection album "best~first things~" sold millions of copies!
At the end of the year, in order to further heat up the popularity, the bold Ai returned to the company and came up with 12 consecutive shots that had never been seen before and no one after him!
But these have made her the talk of 2005.
By the way, at this year's Red and White Song Party, Koda Laiwei also performed on stage, and Sakamoto Kiyoshi also greeted her...
If you want to say who is the most memorable singer in the Japanese music scene in 2005, almost everyone in the entertainment industry is thinking about two names.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Koda are not in the past!
It was the sudden popularity and great achievements that made Koda fail to become opponents with Kiyoshi Sakamoto at this year's record awards.
γγγγγγ
The 47th Japan Record Awards are coming to an end, and now there is only one top award, the Record Award, that has not yet been decided.
According to outside media speculation, although Kiyoshi Sakamoto is likely to win the top award for two consecutive years, Koda will be menacing in the future and should not be underestimated.
In the end, when the supporters on the stage came out with an envelope containing the winner's name, Kiyoshi Sakamoto found that his palms were full of sweat.
"Hmph, it turns out that I also care a lot about winning or losing... β
laughed at himself in his heart, Sakamoto Kiyoshi still clenched his fists, but looked at the host on the stage with a calm expression, and slowly, unsealed the envelope that decided the record award and whose house it was.
At this time, Sakamoto Kiyoshi also took a look, sitting not far from him, Koda Laiwei, and found that the sister was nervous, and her eyes looked at the envelope held by the host on the stage longingly.
At this time, Kiyoshi Sakamoto suddenly had a bad premonition, and he thought that behind the record awards that let him sing two songs this year, it was not just because of his achievements in the past year, but there might be something else...
At this moment, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's brain suddenly started running at high speed, and he remembered a lot.
After a pause, Kiyoshi Sakamoto returned to reality again.
He smiled wryly and muttered to himself, "I see, it's me who lost." β
As he said this, the host on the stage took out a note with the name of the winner written on it in the envelope.
"The 47th, the Japan Record Awards, the Grand Prix, the winner of the Record Grand Prix... β
Knock knock knock!!
The drums before the announcement, the spotlights in the dark, are constantly shining back and forth from the side of the singer's seat, trying to match the drums and create a tense atmosphere.
However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who already knew the result, did not have much to expect at this time, and sat in his chair with a calm face, waiting for the birth of the final result.
"Koda Rami "Butterfly"!"
"Sure enough. β
Kiyoshi Sakamoto looked at the darkness, a spotlight shone on, sitting not far from him, Koda Laiwei.
Although this result was inferred from various clues, Sakamoto Kiyoshi was somewhat confused after experiencing his first failure.
Still, he stood up, smiling and applauding Koda.
At this time, Makokawa and Chiba Masaki, who were sitting on either side of Sakamoto Kiyoshi, were afraid that Sakamoto Kiyoshi would feel sad or frustrated if he did not win the award, so he leaned on Sakamoto Kiyoshi side by himself, and then opened his mouth to comfort him.
With his unique calm voice, Ogawa said to Kiyoshi Sakamoto, "Leader, it's okay, although the big prize was taken away by others, but in our minds, you are the best." β
"Yes, leader, don't be discouraged, you're the strongest in Sony, you can't be depressed just because you lost once, you're a man who won the record award as soon as you debuted!"
The two didn't say "Why did Kiyoshi Sakamoto sell more records than her, and the popularity of her songs was wider than her songs, but she lost?" and "There is a shady scene! We are against it!" and other brainless statements.
Because, they know that losing is losing, and losing is not terrible, what is terrible is that Sakamoto Kiyoshi will collapse because of this failure.
However, they think too much.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto is not such a person at all, what he is most satisfied with is not his handsome appearance, nor his super learning ability and memory, but his strong heart that he has exercised in disguise in his ten-year life, without friends, in solitude!
For such a small setback, Sakamoto Kiyoshi doesn't care at all, even if it's frustrated, it's just a moment...
Therefore, seeing Makogawa and Masaki Chiba pretending to comfort themselves easily, he wanted to laugh and felt very moved at the same time.
"These two guys ... β
Kiyoshi Sakamoto's eyes seem to be a little red...
