Chapter 768: The Struggle and the Development of Events

Zhu Zi sat on Kitagawa's left hand side.

Kitagawa handed a detailed timetable to Zhu Zi.

A few days ago, Mary Kitagawa summoned a reporter to a reception, and in the middle of the call, someone called Iijima, who was working, to show arrogance in front of the reporter and did not leave any face for Iijima, and confirmed: the heir of the Genesys office is her daughter Keiko; the top of the Genesys office is not SMAP, but Kondo Masahiko; if Iijima is against Keiko, he will get out with SMAP; the reason why SMAP does not perform with the new national group Arashi is because SMAP is too bad at dancing; Mary also said" I've made it clear here today, what are the factions? I, although I didn't tell anyone from SMAP, even now I'm going to be a guest at home, I'm going to eat, I'm going to give them something delicious. Iijima even swore on the spot that he had never said anything about the faction.

In fact, as early as the summer of this year, Iijima approached other firms to become independent from SMAP and break away from Janis. The four of them, with the exception of Kimura, have a clear independent stance.

In mid-December, Kimura indicated that he would remain at the Genesys office, and the event of independence turned into a split event, that is, a crisis of dissolution.

At the end of December, President Tanabe told Mary Kitagawa to let the four of them go back.

Now, Iijima leaves. At the same time, major Japanese media reported the news of "SMAP disbandment commotion". Kimura reconciles between the office and the four.

In March, the five of them appeared together on NHK TV to broadcast a live performance to commemorate the 5th anniversary of disaster relief in Fukushima.

In June, media sources reported that the five SMAP had renewed their contracts with Genes for another year.

On August 9, Kimura took his family to Hawaii for a vacation, and it was later reported that Mary and Keiko went to Hawaii.

On the evening of August 13, there was news that the news of SMAP's dissolution would be announced tomorrow, and the curtain of history fell.

After the news of the disbandment, Jenny Kitagawa, president of Genesys Office, expressed his sadness, saying that he had called each of the five people, and even accidentally called Tsuyoshi Domoto, a member of Kinki Kids, when he called member Tsuyoshi Kusaki.

Zhu Zi was thoughtful, he tapped the table gently, no wonder Iijima Sanzhi didn't come today, it turned out that he had already been dismissed, and it was a year earlier than in history.

But staying is more problematic.

Genesys has been divided internally for a long time, and Keiko's ability has been questioned by the top. Although Iijima's personality has also been criticized by all parties, her ability to cultivate artists has been recognized by some high-level executives. President Jenny Kitagawa was very impressed with Iijima, and around 2010 she was entrusted with the management of several young groups and artists he had been in charge of, but the management was quickly taken back, and these groups were later reclassified as the "Keiko School". There is also news that Iijima is not favored by some of the top executives.

Masahiko Kondo, one of the leaders of Genesys, said at the beginning of last year that this year was a difficult year for Genesys.

After the disbandment riot in January last year, Mary told the media that she agreed when President Tanabe called her. However, about the four of them got carried away during the New Year, and no one contacted her, so in the end they refused to return them.

After the dissolution of the riots in January, the general media public opinion: The initial first wave of public opinion pointed directly at "the betrayer is Kimura Takuya", and then the media quickly unified their voices, pointing the finger directly at the leader of the independence faction, Nakai Masahiro, and the agent Iijima, saying that the four of them left with her in order to repay the kindness of Iijima's agent, and Kimura wanted to repay the firm.

As an agent who has worked in the front line of the entertainment industry for a long time, is familiar with the rules of the entertainment industry and has personnel experience, Iijima is ambitious to seize power in the family business, which sounds like a fantasy;

If one of the five members clearly says that they will stay in the morning, the group will be dispersed, and the possibility of independence will be zero, and it is even more unlikely that any brokerage company will dare to take over such a hot potato.

Zhu Zi's gaze swept over the five people in SMAP.

After more than a year, the most controversial will definitely be Takuya Kimura.

In fact, although Takuya Kimura is an old man's person, he is more like a backstabber most of the time.

Once the group is officially disbanded, Kimura will definitely be the one who has been criticized the most.

Now the old man's rights in the office have basically been hollowed out.

It should be obvious that the old man's status and influence are not as good as his sister Mary Kitagawa. After two commotions, he could only move his mouth to express his position, but he could not shake anything.

That's why the old man called him and asked him to come over and witness the incident. With him, at least the old man won't seem particularly isolated.

Iijima has worked with SMAP for 20 years, and SMAP has been semi-independent of the firm for 20 years, has extensive contacts in TV and media, and is indeed trusted by Jenny Kitagawa. And if you open SMAP's 2010 resume, you can also see the cooperation with Kattun, Heisei Jump, Erogenous Zone, Tomohisa Yamashita and Kiss Feet, etc., and there is no doubt that he is a capable person who cultivates artists. Until Iijima left, Kiss Foot was still the group with the most outstanding sales and title programs among the debut groups in the same period. However, even if Jenny appreciates Iijima's delinquency to her, she is at best a high-level worker in the family business. So is it possible that she wants to get off the throne? If so, how can she get off the throne? Before she wants to take power, she has to say yes to her artists and Genesys' affiliated forces.

Now that Iijima Sanchi is leaving, it actually means that Mary can't tolerate her anymore, and in order to pave the way for Fujishima Keiko, it is understandable to do so.

But who is right and who is wrong in this matter, Zhu Zi will not judge easily.

For the next office, the five members who signed SMAP could not use SMAP's name for performing arts activities, and this loss-making deal believed that the liaison would directly reject Iijima; The most logical explanation is that Iijima's initial bargaining chip was a complete five-man smap from Denis. So it was impossible for Takuya Kimura to make it clear from beginning to end that he wanted to stay in Janis, as Mary said.

Tanabe is the office of Tamori, a daimono artist who has a close personal relationship with Nakai and Kusaki of SMAP. A number of media outlets reported that Iijima first approached President Akichi Tanabe, and then was pointed to the relationship firm K-DASH. Burning President Ikuo Tsubo and K-DASH President Ryuo Kawamura are allies, and it is generally believed that Tanabe is under the umbrella of the B line, and K-DASH has a strong relationship with Tanabe and the B line. And Masahiro Motoki and Hiromi Xiang, who ran away from Genesys, both came to the B series without exception. It is absolutely understandable to leave Dennis's empire and come under a B-series umbrella that can compete with it.

"So now that Katori-san, Kusaki-san, and Inagaki-san, have the three of you officially decided to leave Janis?"
