Chapter 233: The Only Flower in the World
Variety shows on the mainland are in the first stage of development because of various restrictions, no industry has yet been formed, and the competition is not as fierce as South Korea and RB, in fact, at present, among the various TV stations in Chinese mainland, the variety shows do better belong to Mango TV and local satellite TV in the special economic zone, and the variety shows of these two TV stations are relatively original. Of course, in terms of influence, Mango TV can undoubtedly beat other TV stations, even Tomato TV, which ranks first in terms of comprehensive influence, cannot be compared with him.
Kagawa Yu wants to open a variety show in China or let AKB48 develop in China, this idea is very good, but the difficulties faced will be very many, but SMAP is different, although there are many difficulties faced, but compared to AKB, it is much less. First of all, the general public in China is more accepting of male artists than female artists, especially male artists like Takuya Kimura, who have both strength and idols, but they have a large number of fans in China.
During this time, Kagawa Yu continued to make friends with many people in the mainland entertainment industry through the introduction of President Huayi, and through conversations with these people, he also knew that if he wanted to really enter the mainland market at this stage, it would be impossible to do so, but it was okay to simply hold a concert or tour.
On November 22, the American Disney Company has come to the news that the 3D animated film they collaborated with Kagawa Yu has officially started production, which is based on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale "Snow White" The animated film, the screenwriting and music are all in charge of Kagawa Yu. Disney was still skeptical about Kagawa Yu's ability before, but when they saw the plot of the movie adapted by Kagawa Yu, they agreed to Kagawa Yu's request very cleanly.
The movie mainly tells. There are two princesses in the kingdom of Arendelle, and Elsa and Anna are the two princesses of the kingdom of Arendelle. Aisha was born with the magical ability to create ice and snow, but as she grew older, her abilities became stronger and stronger, and she almost took her sister's life. Since then, Aisha has become self-contained, and has hidden the secret of her magic from the world. The king and queen of Arendelle were killed in a shipwreck; After a sad shipwreck, Aisha finally reached the age of coronation. The princes and princes came to congratulate. Aisha trembles, lest someone reveal the secret she has hidden for years. However, when she heard that Anna was going to marry Hans, the prince of the southern island, whom she met for the first time, she still lost control of her emotions and showed her feet. After this, she fled to the mountains. Built her own ice palace, Arendelle was plunged into the terrible cold.
In order to save her sister and the kingdom of Arendelle, Anna travels alone to the mountains and goes to find her sister's palace with the help of the mountain people Kstorf. Embark on a fantastical journey.
The plot looks old-fashioned. But it is very warm, which is also what Disney values a point, they know more about the aesthetic point and emotional side of Westerners than Kagawa Yu, and Disney also said that if it goes well, the movie will be officially completed in June, as for the release date of the movie, they hope to be released this Christmas. Of course, the specific matters will need to wait until Kagawa Yu goes to the United States early next year to discuss the decision.
Originally, Kagawa Yu was going to take only Nami Okumanami alone, but after accepting the overseas management rights of SMAP, he had a new idea, but this matter has not been specifically discussed with the five people of Nakaju Masahiro. So he could only wait for a few people to be free before discussing this matter.
Several uncles at SMAP have also been rarely idle recently, and in previous years, at this time, they were busy with various activities almost every day. This year is different, taking advantage of the opportunity to hold a concert, several people can be said to have almost visited the imperial capital. On the other side, the concert has already been sold, and tickets have been sold out, and it is estimated that more than 100,000 spectators will watch SMAP live by then.
This time, the song is also carefully choreographed, and the opening track is their masterpiece "The Only Flower in the World", which is the highest selling single of SMAP, and this song is also considered one of SMAP's best songs.
It is generally believed that the reason why this song has achieved such a great success is that the song contains a strong humanism, multiculturalism and peaceful coexistence of values. The line in the lyrics, "It doesn't matter if you can't be No.1, it's a famous phrase that OnlyOne has become a well-known word in RB Street." And the Iraq war has a lot to do with the success of this song. It was on the eve of the outbreak of the Iraq War, and the RB, although not directly involved in the war, was de facto supportive of the invasion of Iraq as a close ally of the United States. However, RB people are generally tired of war and oppose war, and in this case, "The Only Flower in the World", which emphasizes that "everyone is a unique individual, do not make comparisons, and do not need to compete for the first", resonates with the general public. Kagawa Yu spent three days re-filling the lyrics for this song in Chinese, so in this concert, SMAP will sing this song in Chinese, and it is worth mentioning that the best Chinese among several people is still Takuya Kimura, which makes Kagawa Yu quite admired.
On the evening of the 25th, after Kagawa Yu finished dinner, he got together with several uncles.
"Kagawa-san, I recently heard that your life is very solid, and a few of us thought that you had found your other half and lived a life in paradise." Nakaju joked.
"I'm looking for the other half, but no girl has a fancy to me. How have you been? Kagawa Yu said with a smile.
"It's great, a few of us just said it, it would be nice if it could be so easy at this time of year." Shingo Katori said.
"But will Denis allow you to do that?"
"Isn't it up to you to decide overseas? Every year at this time, you take us out and come back the next year. Shingo Katori smiled.
"Good idea, Katori!" Masahiro Nakai is very tacit and high-fives Shingo Katori celebrates!
"It's a good idea, I heard that the benefits of Kagawa-san are very good, so I decided it." Takuya Kimura also made a joke.
Kagawa Yu's face immediately turned into a bitter gourd face
"If I do this, I guess the old man will cut me directly."
"Hahaha!" Several people laughed.
"Speaking of overseas, I have a question for how many people do I want to ask?" (To be continued......)
