Chapter 99: Brother Doesn't Listen to Songs
The sun has set in Roppongi, and the night sky on Christmas Eve is filled with winter snowflakes. All the trees on the street www.biquge.info Pen, Fun and Pavilion are covered with string lights. Most of Roppongi's street trees are cherry trees, and at this time of year, the bright white strings of lights and snowflakes merge together, making it difficult to tell whether it's snow, lights, or cherry blossoms that travel through time.
December 24, 2004, was both Christmas Eve and Friday, and everyone's biological clock was naturally immersed in the rhythm of the carnival. From Roppongi to the entire entertainment district of Tokyo, the song "Merry-Chri" is enveloped in songs.
Gu Cheng's Maybach S600 bulletproof car was speeding on the Shibuya line, looking at the cherry blossom trees with strings of lights hanging on both sides, Gu Cheng felt something and rolled down the window.
The climax of "Thewhitewhitesnow'scomingtonight, Makeawishuponyourkiss...... mixed with snowflakes drifts in one after another as the windows open.
As the car drove through the doors of one after another, KTV, cinemas, and discotheques, you could feel the bursts of sound rising and falling.
Gu Cheng smiled when he heard this.
As the hottest song of this year, it is the title song of the new album of the popular little diva, and the quiet and warm atmosphere of Christmas snowy night is so appropriate, there is no reason why all entertainment venues are not hot.
He couldn't help but think of five days ago, that is, last Sunday, when he watched Fuji TV's entertainment talk show "Shindomoto Brothers". The guest of that issue was Kwon Bo-ah, showing fans some tidbits behind the album "メリクリ".
Later, I heard that the "Shindomoto Brothers" had won a whopping 23% of the ratings of a single issue, which shocked the entire Fuji Television Planning Department.
You must know that in the previous three episodes, Koji Yoshikawa, Naoya Ogawa, and Aya Ueto only supported 8~9% of the guests. After Kwon Bo-ah appeared, this figure was nearly twice as high!(For reference, in October 2010, AKB48's "Shindomoto Brothers" had a 10% rating, the highest that year.) )
"Mr. Gu, aren't you cold when you open the window?" Gu Cheng had just been immersed in memories for less than half a minute when he was reminded to close the window by the bodyguard and driver who disturbed the scenery.
Gu Cheng frowned: "I want to listen to songs!"
The driver was intimidated by the accumulation of threats, and he pondered for a while before speculating and discussing: "Do you want to listen to Miss Quan's "メリクリ"? There is a disc in the car, or I will put it for you? I have to be responsible for your safety......
"Do you think I have so many enemies that someone would shoot someone on the streets of Tokyo? Do you think anyone will know that I happened to open the window at this point? What do you know?"
After Gu Cheng said this, the driver finally quieted down.
Still, he felt disappointed.
……
is so red and purple, so that Quan Baoya has to be careful and careful when traveling, so as not to cause a tragedy of trampling on each other after being recognized by passers-by.
It was about 7 p.m., and the time hadn't arrived yet. She stood at the entrance of the VIP passage of a TOHO cinema line in Nishishi-Shibuya, wrapped in a large trench coat made of fine black alpaca wool fabric, and wearing a small, chic, low-pressed women's hat.
When it was screened in the middle of the month, Kwon Bo-ah was still recording sources for Vocaloid, so I didn't go to see the screening. The recording took about 40 days and was completed around the 15th. After leaving the customs, he hurriedly went to Fuji TV's year-end promotional program to record a variety show, which can be said to be too busy.
Christmas Eve and Christmas Day are a rare two-day break, and after the busy day, we will prepare for NHK's year-end red and white song party from the 27th. She has been in the Red and White Song Party three times, but she has never been the No. 1 singer of the Red Team, and in previous years she was pressed by Ayumi Hamasaki, Namie Amuro or Hikaru Utada. This year she finally reached the top, and she didn't want to miss this opportunity to make a name for herself.
This is also the last honor she has the motivation to pursue in the Fusang music scene. After the red and white PK reached the top, maybe she will fall into even greater confusion.
There are only two days off, of course, I have to accompany Brother Cheng to watch the premiere.
There are people coming and going at the entrance of the theater, and almost every group of guests who leave the theater are praising "Sunset in the Three Chomes"
A forty-year-old uncle, holding a little girl who seems to be aiding J to watch this movie, originally it seems that the little girl dragged him to watch, and the uncle should have little interest. However, when he came out, even the uncle couldn't help but sigh:
"I didn't expect such a grand and warm film to be able to fill in all the clue pits. Every small character who is 'crushed by the wheel of history' can have a good ending. For at least 20 years, there has been no match for literary and artistic films in the world. ”
On the other side, a Shibuya couple who killed Matt's hairstyle left the scene with a sigh, and the man looked up step by step and sighed: "It's just that the topic is a bit wrong, in order to be nostalgic for the past, I have to use 'sunset', and I want me to say that it's better to 'sunset'." ”
"You know what. The girl wanted to defend herself, but she didn't say anything.
Whenever Quan Baoya heard passers-by praise this movie, she couldn't help but be honored in her heart, and had an urge to come up and listen to it, and even talk to it. Fortunately, she was well-trained, knew her identity, and did not make mistakes.
It seems that after watching this movie, whether it is Shibuya killing Matt, or a lewd uncle, or aiding J sister, they are all covered with a layer of human brilliance.
Quan Baoya was surrounded by two female bodyguards wearing sunglasses, and when she saw that there were many snow adults, she kindly dissuaded: "Miss, let's wait inside? It's cold outside." ”
"No, I'll be careful not to be recognized. Kwon Bo-ah frowned, preferring to stand in the snow and stomp her feet in high heels to keep warm.
Those bodyguards, how can they understand her state of mind.
After staying up for a few minutes, I finally waited for Gu Cheng's Maybach S600 bulletproof car.
"Why are you standing outside and waiting, isn't it cold? As soon as Gu Cheng got out of the car, he saw Quan Baoya standing in the snow and stomping his feet, and he felt distressed, and hurriedly took off his windbreaker handmade by Miss Adlaira Versace and put it on for his sister.
In order to invite Quan Baoya to watch a movie tonight, Gu Cheng booked a ticket for an entire hall of this TOHO cinema in advance.
"It's weird in there, I like to hear people talk about your movies - you're as boring as those bodyguards. Quan Baoya pouted arrogantly, naturally leaned her head on Gu Cheng's shoulder, and rubbed slightly into his arms, "Listening to the audience walking in front of me, all of them are praising your movie, I feel warm in my heart." ”
Gu Cheng's cold-faced and cold-hearted temper couldn't help but feel a little sour, and he couldn't help but hug his sister's waist and snuggle inside.
When I arrived at the theater and sat down, there were still a few minutes before the start of the screening. The whole hall was empty, except for the four corners where bodyguards sit.
The mini hall of 80 people is full of double couple seats, and only Gu Cheng and Quan Baoya are the two main protagonists who watch the film.
Gu Cheng put his clothes on the back of the chair next to him, gently held Quan Baoya's slender jade hands, and warmed them: "Thank you, in order to listen to others praise me, my hands are frozen like this." ”
Quan Baoya smiled lightly: "Say thank you to me, and don't you help me too." ”
"Actually, on the way I came just now, I also left the window open all the way, and the driver was strange, saying that it was so cold and that the downtown area was not safe, so he persuaded me to close the window. And guess what I said?"
Quan Baoya's eyes flashed, slightly confused, but she couldn't guess Gu Cheng's disguise: "Don't sell it, tell me." ”
"I said, I want to listen to the song......" Gu Cheng said this, as if he had fallen into a memory, and paused for a moment.
However, Kwon Bo-ah immediately caught it, and her eyes flashed with tears of emotion: "You want to listen to my songs, you want to hear all the people in Tokyo listening to my songs, right?"
Gu Cheng originally wanted to sell a pass, and then explain, seeing that Quan Baoya guessed his mood so neatly, there was nothing to say.
Only Yu smiled.
Quan Baoya's hands were already warmed, Gu Cheng put down his sister's hands, and naturally took her into his arms: "You really know me best." ”
Quan Baoya relaxed into Gu Cheng's arms like a kitten, and put herself in her shoes to persuade: "I know your intentions, but don't do this in the future." I've heard that you've offended a lot of people in your business. Sitting in a bulletproof car and opening the windows is not only cold, but also dangerous. ”
"Don't talk about these bad scenery, watch a movie. You can have that kind of delicate experience, I think this film should be very impressive to you. Gu Cheng soothed the girl's soft middle black long straight and made the girl quiet.
The movie opens quickly. A group portrait of all living beings, starting from the bits and pieces, converge and gather.
At the beginning, the family of Suzuki Motorsport bought a television set for the first time in the entire chome.
In the mancai hall next door, the aging rakugo master and other manga artists are facing the impact of TV, and their business is getting worse and worse.
The impact of new media has made Chachuan, a writer and protagonist who adheres to ethics, more and more hit the streets.
The sweaty uncle who pedaled his bicycle to deliver ice cubes did not know that the crisis of his life was approaching, and he was still secretly congratulating that "the living conditions of the townspeople are getting better and better, and more and more people are buying ice cubes in the summer". However, by the time the film was released for about half an hour, as refrigerators began to spread to the homes of the townspeople, the uncle who sold ice cubes could only drink heavily and lament his unemployment.
The long scroll of life is gradually unfolding. More and more characters are filling in one pit after another.
Rakugo, who has been shocked by television, has found a new way of survival that focuses on stand-up interaction.
The writer who hit the street has found a way to live in the era of light novels and not write light novels. (Although 'the wife is separated')
The unemployed ice cube seller has changed to sell ice cream, although he wipes his sweat more often under the scorching sun, but his mood of "hoping that the weather will be hotter and the business will be better" has not changed.
No one is eliminated, no one is exterminated. Those who have been eliminated are just people who have not grasped themselves as a human being, people who distinguish the value of existence.
Those who have been eliminated are just those who have not found the irreproducibility of their lives.
Although this is essentially a literary film that "breaks beautiful things for people to see", compared to other literary films in the world, the mutilation and fragments shown in this literary film are so beautiful.
Quan Baoya suddenly felt very delicate and had a sense of substitution.
Yes, copying and piracy can copy the song in the past and meet the needs of people to hear the song "メリクリ".
But will reproduction satisfy people's spiritual need to "be glad to find that everyone in Tokyo is listening to this song"?
No.
Copying and piracy can also reproduce the film in the past, satisfying people's needs to see the film "Sunset at the Third Chome".
However, can reproduction satisfy people's spiritual need to "be glad to find that so many people in the world are praising this film with you"?
No.
So, television, movies, the Internet, no matter how they are reproduced, there will always be corners that the marginal cost of the Matthew effect cannot be eliminated.
Those quiet corners are the meaning of the existence of human personality.
A video that has been recreated by the barrage is no longer the one uploaded by the UP master.
