Chapter 175: Rainbow Wedding
On Sunday, it was cloudy.
At half past nine in the morning, Tian Licheng, dressed in a black suit and white shirt, called a taxi and headed for Sony Music in high spirits.
This is the departure point that I made with HYDE yesterday, and the meeting time is set for 10 o'clock.
After returning to Tokyo yesterday, in addition to writing songs, Lao Tian took care of his costumes, and the shooting of the MV required formal wear.
After Nanase Nishino moved in, he deliberately vacated a large piece of the wardrobe in his room for the girl to use, and a lot of his previous clothes were scattered in the wardrobes of other rooms.
What's more, he didn't need a suit once a year, and he didn't know which one he hung it on at that time.
It's hard to find a suit, and you need to use a garment steamer to comb it well.
In addition, trousers, leather shoes, and bow ties also need to be taken care of.
Fortunately, after years of single life, the housekeeper Tian Licheng will not be stumped by these little things.
When everything was ready, he set an alarm clock for himself and went to bed early.
When he arrived at Sony Music five minutes early, the Rainbow Orchestra and the rest of the staff walked out of the building.
"Hello!" HYDE GREETED LAO TIAN, WALKED UP TO HIM, STOOD ON TIPTOE QUITE AFFECTIONATELY, AND PUT HIS ARM AROUND HIS SHOULDER: "YOU KID, YOU CAN TOSS US TO DEATH." ”
As a monster who has exchanged his height for his appearance, HYDE, who is 161, stands on tiptoe and can be on a par with Lao Tian in his early 180s.
Although Tian Licheng felt that his current posture was a little awkward, he had no choice but to smile bitterly: "Why did I toss you?" As soon as I heard your call, I rushed back from Shikoku. ”
HYDE laughed: "Shikoku? You're chic. Actually, I'm the shopkeeper, mainly them, and I'm tossed by your ideas. ”
He pointed his hand at the other staff present.
"By the way, let me introduce to you, this is the director of the MV, Tetsu-san Inoue. He doesn't have a small opinion of you. ”
"Mr. Inoue, please take care of me when we meet for the first time."
Tian Licheng smiled and shook hands with the bearded director in front of him, and under the introduction of HYDE, he also greeted their agents and assistants one by one.
Immediately afterwards, a grievance meeting against Tian Licheng began.
When Tian Licheng proposed the MV idea of "Wedding Raid", the members of the Rainbow Orchestra thought it was novel, but when it came to the actual operation, they found that the idea was too troublesome.
First of all, finding the right wedding is a daunting task.
July and August are not the peak season for weddings, and there are not many couples holding weddings, coupled with the restriction that the venue must be large enough to have enough space to set up the stage, the room for choice is even narrower.
The daily routine of the assistants has become to call the major hotels and wedding companies to ask what time, who and where the wedding will be held.
They then get the couple's contact information from the hotel and the wedding company, call the groom, and ask for the consent of the person.
In order to maintain secrecy, the assistants could not directly say that they were the Rainbow Orchestra on the phone, but could only use a "famous band" instead, so many people thought they were liars or pranks.
Moreover, the concept of Dongying people is relatively conservative, and in life events such as weddings, people who uphold the principle that more things are better than less things account for the majority.
The assistant made hundreds of phone calls, and finally agreed to add a "band to cheer up, surprise the bride" link, but there were only a dozen or so grooms.
In addition, the "rainbow wedding" was not very experienced at the beginning, and it really made a lot of jokes.
In the first scene, the white curtain used to cover the stage was too thin, and Rainbow had just sneaked into the arena and was still preparing the musical instruments, and the guests present recognized them through the curtain.
Before the surprise began, the shouts of "LArc-en-Ciel" were already filling the air.
In another scene, when the rainbow appeared, the atmosphere was quite high, and the bride and groom were also very excited, but the guests were standing in place and applauding.
The older elders also asked one after another, "Is this invited band famous?" How much money was spent".
Is it embarrassing? It's so embarrassing! sang happily on stage, but there were only two brides and grooms in the audience, and the other audience was still watching from afar......
In order to be able to shoot the real reaction on the spot, they didn't let people take charge and command, and most of the more than ten raids were scrapped.
The assistants had no choice but to shoot while contacting more weddings, and as a result, a MV took six weeks to save up enough material.
"I can memorize the wedding greetings." These are the exact words of Captain Rainbow Tetsuya.
DRUMMER KEN SAID, "PANDA-SAN, IF YOU GET MARRIED IN THE FUTURE, WE CAN PROVIDE YOU WITH A LOT OF INFORMATION ABOUT THE WEDDING." ”
"Yes, we have almost run all over the big hotels and wedding clubs in Tokyo, you say, are we tossed by you?" HYDE's arm around Lao Tian's shoulder symbolically added a force.
Tian Licheng said with a smile: "Although the process is quite tortuous, haven't the seniors also accumulated experience?" If LArc-en-Ciel Wedding opens one day, I will definitely be your loyal customer! ”
HYDE complained mercilessly: "You're still a loyal customer, how many times are you going to get married......"
Lao Tian scratched his head embarrassedly in the laughter around him, this, it seems, is really hard to say.
The final shoot began immediately.
The four members of the Rainbow Orchestra jumped into the lead convertible.
"Today is August 17, 2014 and we will be driving to mess up as many weddings as possible. EVEN PANDA-SAN FROM MDM JOINED OUR TEAM, WHICH WAS AMAZING! ”
After HYDE finished speaking, the director's camera turned to Tian Licheng.
Lao Tian put on a panda mask and made a "V" gesture to the camera: "It's almost time, let's hurry up." ”
The passenger seat of the lead car was left to him.
After Lao Tian got on the car, HYDE stepped on the accelerator, and everyone made a departure gesture together, and the whole team drove off in a mighty way.
HYDE slammed the steering wheel and complained: "I have to say this every time I record, to be honest, if it weren't for the fact that you came here today with a little new word, I would have vomited." ”
"Haha, where are we going today?"
"Church of the Light of the Sea. The Hilton Hotel in Odaiba. ”
Tian Licheng was surprised: "The light of the sea? Yes, I heard that you can see not only Tokyo Bay, but also Rainbow Bridge and Tokyo Tower. ”
"Well, the STAFF have already stepped on the point, it is very convenient to set up a table over there, and you can go around from the back kitchen to the dressing room, and then directly enter the venue, the confidentiality is super strong!"
"Another one in the evening?"
"Yes, in Karuizawa. We'll drive over when it's over, and we'll be in time. ”
"The place is pretty nice. But then again, HYDE-san~~~ Why do we use convertibles? Tian Licheng asked hesitantly.
HYDE said in a reasonable tone: "The convertible is breathable, pulls the wind, and the director is easy to shoot." ”
Tian Licheng smiled bitterly: "Okay, we are indeed good enough." ”
He pointed to his right.
I saw that the parallel vehicles in the next lane had already rolled down their windows, and the passengers inside were screaming loudly: "Wow! It's LArc-en-Ciel! Alive! ”
