Chapter 477: A Trip to Japan (2)

Founded in 1953, Subaru is a subsidiary of Fuji Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. (FHI) specializing in automobile manufacturing, initially mainly producing automobiles, but also aircraft and various engines, and is a manufacturer of various types of multi-purpose transportation equipment. The logo of the Fuji Heavy Industries "Subaru" car is in the form of six stars.

If you are not familiar with Fuji Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., then looking back, its predecessor is the Japanese military enterprise Nakajima Flying Aircraft Co., Ltd., which produced a total of 19,561 military aircraft and 36,400 aero engines for the Japanese Navy and Army in the years from 1941 to 1945. The output far exceeded that of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Japan's other two major aviation giants (12,513 military aircraft, 41,534 aero engines) and Kawasaki Aviation (8,234 military aircraft, 10,274 aero engines), and its R&D and production capacity was second to none among Japanese aviation companies at the time.

However, after World War II, the Allies took over all of Japan's shipbuilding and aircraft factories, and in this case, Nakajima Flying Aircraft Co., Ltd. had to reorganize to adapt to the new environment. It merged Fuji Industries, Fuji Motors, Omiya Fuji Industries, Utsunomiya Vehicles, and Tokyo Fuji Heavy Industries to form the current diversified group--- Fuji Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., which mainly produces automobiles, aircraft, railway vehicles, and engines.

As early as 1989, in the World Automobile Endurance Race (GT) organized by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) in Phoenix, USA, three Fujily Lion sports cars ran continuously for 19 days at an average speed of 223.345 kilometers per hour, and at the same time set a new record of 100,000 kilometers in the world of racing, which has not been broken for many years. Anyone who follows international car racing is beginning to pay attention to the automakers from Japan, which are as fast as Toyota and Honda.

In order to enter the world and occupy a certain position and share in the world automotive industry, Subaru began to invest in new design and scientific research. Symmetrical AWD, a new technology, allows the car to perform more dynamically than ordinary sedans with the cooperation of the engine with a low center of gravity and four-wheel drive, and can do whatever you want when cornering at high speeds, in rainy weather, and in sand.

The Boxer engine is an engine technique that can only be found in Porsche. One of its characteristics is that the lateral vibrations generated by it are easily absorbed by the bracket, which can effectively lower the center of gravity of the heavier engine of the whole car, making it easier to achieve overall balance when designing the counterweight of the whole car. The reason why not many people dare to adopt such a good technology is because it has quite strict requirements for the design and production process of all parts of the engine. This is enough to prove that Fuji Heavy Industries has reached the world's top level in terms of technology and product maturity.

This time, Subaru invited Zixi to participate in the endorsement, which is the "Subaru Forester" redesigned and developed by Subaru, which is an SUV with super off-road performance. Zixi's endorsement fee is as high as 100 million yen, which is equivalent to 1.3 billion won. For other stars in Japan and South Korea, the remuneration is not cheap at all, but Zixi's popularity and popularity in Europe, America and the Asia-Pacific region are big enough, but the price is not as good as other Hollywood superstars, so this investment is definitely worth it. And in order to increase its fame, in addition to sufficient advertising expenses, Subaru will also give a "Subaru Forester" to Zixi as a gift.

Zixi has little interest in the "Subaru Forester" as a gift, he has never liked the thin skin and stuffing of Japanese cars, and if he can't get a second-hand Ford or Chevrolet from twenty or thirty years ago, he can crash any Japanese car to pieces. For the sake of his own safety, the car can be accepted, but Zixi will never drive it himself. Just throw it to Kwon Ji-hoon or Luo Xiuzhe, and they can fiddle with it as much as they like.

FS Group has been operating in Japan for many years and has a good relationship with some family-owned consortia in Japan. Although it is far less influential than in South Korea, the network of relationships is far more complex than South Korea can match. With the resurgence of right-wing forces in Japan in recent years, the FS group does not have a very harmonious relationship with these forces, but the FS group has the support of the United States behind it, and there are some congressmen who have the support of the FS group, so that no one dares to act rashly. Even if he knew that the FS Group was hiding behind his back and made some small moves from time to time, he took too much care of it, so that the right-wing forces could only watch and do nothing.

For the sake of safety, every time Zixi goes to Japan, he is surrounded by a group of people, not only with a group of people around him, but also many people in Japan to guard the surroundings to ensure the safety of the future heir of the family.

This time was no exception, not only did the vast majority of South Korea's bodyguards follow, but also temporarily sent some people from Hong Kong over, so that when he walked out of the airport, Zixi had twenty or thirty people around him to protect him. However, this kind of pomp did not make the "knights" who came to the airport to greet Zixi retreat at all.

Subaru began to promote early, inviting Hollywood star Zixi as the spokesperson for the company's new new model, and cooperating with Japanese beauty star Erika Sawajiri in advertising. In addition, the detailed shooting schedule and announcement of Zixi were published on the company's website, so that all the Japanese "knights" flocked to it, and the "knights" of nearly 1,000 people filled Haneda Airport.

The airport reception hall has been occupied by the "Knights" for a long time, and the police station at the airport and the nearby police station have dispatched all the police forces they can use to maintain order, and even applied to the chief of the Tokyo National Police Agency for manpower support. Because the police completely miscalculated the energy of Zixi's "Knights", as the time for the plane to land approached, the original only two or three hundred people surged to nearly a thousand, and only those thirty or forty policemen were far from enough to maintain the increasingly fierce atmosphere at the scene, as well as suppress the increasingly excited "knights".

In Asia, the largest "knight" organizations are South Korea, Japan, and Southeast Asia, far more powerful than half of Zixi's hometown, Hong Kong. According to incomplete statistics, the number of "knights" organized by South Korea's Zixi Fanclub is about 150,000 to 200,000, not counting the "knights" organizations established by private websites, if all of them are counted, they will definitely exceed 300,000.

In Japan, the number of "Knights" organized by Zixi Fanclub has reached 400,000 early, and with the popularity of [Transformers], large and small "Knights" have begun to merge together to establish a huge, organized and strictly disciplined "Guardian Knights", with as many as 500,000 people.

Moreover, unlike South Korea, the composition of the "knights" is mostly composed of women between the ages of 16 and 30. Japan's "Guardian Knights", men and women of all ages, they worship the strong, they respect the strong, Zixi in any aspect, far behind many movie stars in Asia. So the Japanese recognized him and accepted him. Even Japan's "Guardian Knights" once challenged the Korean "Knights" to challenge their legitimacy.

in Southeast Asia. Although Singapore, Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia and other countries have their own "knights" organizations, they are far from being comparable to South Korea and Japan, and even worse than Hong Kong and Taiwan. However, now the "knights" of the entire Southeast Asia have been combined to form a huge organization comparable to Japan and South Korea, which makes the Hong Kong "knights" organization, which is Zixi's hometown, feel quite depressed and helpless. Restricted by the population, and there are many stars in Hong Kong, the number of people who join the "knights" can be imagined.

This time, I received from the Internet that Zixi would come to Japan for an advertisement shooting, and the stay would be about four days to a week, and the organizers of the "Guardian Knights" began to plan, hoping to see the "prince" in their hearts.

A white T-shirt, a white jacket, and a Q version of the comic image of Zixi riding a white horse on the jacket. These are the shapes of the people arranged by the Japanese "knights" organization to pick them up at the airport. Each of them held a fluorescent white balloon with two symmetrical red hearts painted on it, and the two Korean names of Zixi, 'ZH', were written in yellow with the abbreviated words of 'ZH', the Korean name of Zixi. However, the Japanese "knights" do not call themselves "white knights" like South Korea, they prefer to call themselves "guardian knights".

Zixi, who walked out of the airport in front of him, was not greeted by a heat wave, but a uniform "prince... prince… prince...". Supporting the electronic card, Zixi's Q version of the horseback riding style, as well as the classic shapes in [Transformers] and [Pirates of the Caribbean], can be presented one by one in the posters in their hands.

When they saw Zixi appear, they shouted even harder, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as hoarse. The electronic cards and posters held high rose and fell like ocean waves, stretching out their arms like forests, just wanting to be able to touch or touch the "prince" in their hearts. The wall of police and airport security personnel is overwhelmed, and it is possible that these "knights" may break through at any time.

"Hello everyone! I love you! You are all the cutest of all! With every step she took, she bowed to these fans who warmly welcomed her, and greeted them loudly in Japanese. And seeing the "prince" waving to himself, nodding and bowing to himself, and greeting himself, the excited fans shouted even louder. Some sensual girls even cried out and stretched out their arms, trying to make them closer to Zixi.

Finally, a minister from Subaru came to Zixi's side and led him to the car that had been waiting for a long time. And seeing Zixi get into the car, which excited "knights" couldn't control their emotions, and broke free from the wall of police and security personnel, rushed to which luxury car, and surrounded the whole car.

Zixi, who was in the car, was also frightened by these enthusiastic and crazy fans in Japan. He didn't expect that his popularity in Japan seemed to be even more powerful than in South Korea. In recent years, Zixi has been rated by the Japanese media, the Internet and many women's magazines as "the first place in the most wanted looks of Japanese men", "the first most attractive male star", "the third most handsome male star in Asia", "the first male star that a girl wants to give the first night the most", "the third place in the ideal object that Japanese women want to marry the most" and "the third Asian male star that Japanese actresses most want to work with", and so on. This is enough to prove that his influence and popularity in Japan will definitely not be worse than those old big stars. It's not surprising that fans are so crazy about their performance.

Seeing that the order had begun to get out of control, the standby riot squad drove in in full armor and blocked the front of the vehicle, separating the fans from the vehicle. Some fans who were overly agitated were even beaten with batons and shields by the riot squad and fell to the ground injured.

"Everyone, please stop!" Zixi got out of the car, snatched a megaphone from a policeman on the side, and shouted loudly.

Although the fans and the police were mixed together, Zixi's voice still came out, and slowly the fans quieted down and looked at Zixi who was standing in front of the car with a megaphone.

"Please don't push anymore, your enthusiasm, your love for me, I have received it, thank you! I love you all the same! After Zixi finished speaking, he bowed ninety degrees in all directions. Please remain calm and restrained, and follow the arrangements of the police to maintain order. If you are injured because of this, it will make Zixi feel deeply sad, so Zixi is here to ask you! "Bow ninety degrees again.

The fans quieted down, and the police dispersed, just maintaining a certain distance in front of the car. “prince… prince...", and suddenly there was a shout that was even louder than just now, like a mountain and a tsunami. Zixi was moved by them, and kept bowing, both eyes already red. This made the "knights" who saw it shout even harder, as if endlessly.
