Chapter 180: China, Japan, and Korea Song Friends Association (3)
"It's very simple, apologize and leave the music scene for a year."
Hikaru Utada's words are simple, but the meaning of the words makes people feel cold.
Away from the music scene for a year!
This is not much different from banning, not everyone has the popularity of a princess, and she can make a comeback after leaving the music world, especially a singer like Li Lin who has just accumulated a lot of popularity, after leaving for a year or a year, who still recognizes him?
"Miss Hikaru Utada is really amazing." Li Lin's tone cooled, and he began to completely tear his face with Hikaru Utada, "Your hand has reached from Japan to Huaxia, aren't you afraid of being cut off by someone?" ”
"Princess's senior." Utada Hikaru ignored Li Lin, but pressed towards the princess step by step, "Can you not be punished if you say the wrong thing?" ”
The princess was silent, sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed, seemingly resting, but actually thinking about the gains and losses.
The mythical combination next to it has nothing to do with itself.
"No, you don't." A voice came, and Hikaru Utada immediately frowned.
She glanced at the mythical group and quickly skipped it, although the mythical group is the top group in Korea, the group from S.M company has always had no connections, which is seriously inconsistent with their status.
As for the princess?
She had just stared at the princess, sure that it was not the princess who was speaking.
Since it is not a mythical combination or a princess, no matter who is present, they have offended Hikaru Utada.
"Li Jun is indeed not wrong."
Katsuto Matsuura walked in slowly, his powerful aura and Utada's sweeping eyes made the artists in front of him get out of the way. No one dares to get involved at this time.
"Bubu really doesn't like to be in the same public place as you, Light Bear."
"Who is this?"
The artists who got out of the way inquired one after another, "How dare you interject at this time?" ”
The seniority in the entertainment industry is very serious. Those with low status don't have much say in front of artists with high status, and those like those in front of them are either powerful or stupid.
Hikaru Utada's gaze swept to Katsuto Matsuura, and she immediately trembled all over, although she is a Japanese pop diva and has a very high status in the Japanese entertainment circle, she still doesn't have the courage to fight against Katsuto Matsuura, a big singer.
Reluctantly smiling, Utada Mitsuchi said that this time Li Lin was going to escape. "How did Mr. President get here?"
"It's just that there are some things that need to be dealt with." Katsuto Matsuura glanced at Hikaru Utada meaningfully, "Hikara, I think my words should prove that Li Lin is not lying!" ”
"If you really mind, you can ask Bubu."
Hikara Kuma is called by a fan of Hikaru Utada. And Bubu is the nickname of Ayumi Hamasaki.
"Looks like I don't know how to think about it step by step." Hikaru Utada hated it in his heart, calling, what kind of call, you Katsuto Matsuura opened his mouth even if Ayumi Hamasaki didn't think so in his heart.
In the Japanese entertainment circle, who doesn't know that she Hikaru Utada and Ayumi Hamasaki don't deal with each other. But no matter what, in front of the media, the two still behave like friends.
For example, when Hikaru Utada went to the United States to be interviewed by the media, the reporter asked if you know Ayumi Hamasaki? Hikaru Utada's answer must be that she is a good singer and that the songs she writes are very good. And when Ayumi Hamasaki was asked by the media about his relationship with Hikaru Utada, he replied that he must have been very good and admired each other.
But who is Katsuto Matsuura? She is the president of Ayumi Hamasaki's company, Ibex Group, and Ayumi Hamasaki's teacher, not to mention that the relationship between the two of them is not good, even if it is very good, the answer to the mouth at this time may not appear together.
"Hello to all the artists from China, Japan and South Korea, I am Katsuto Matsuura, the president of the Japanese Ibex Group." Katsuto Matsuura smiled and greeted everyone.
"Hello President."
The people of the Mythical Group were the first to stand up from the sofa and respond to Katsuto Matsuura's greetings.
The Ibex Group and S.M Company are strategic partners, and all the activities of S.M's artists in Japan are handled by the Ibex Group, and the Mythical Group has been active in Japan. Naturally, we should respect Katsuto Matsuura.
"The president of the Japanese Ibex Group?" The princess didn't get up, the Ibex Group is the overlord of Japan, but this is China. She didn't need to show any special respect to him.
"Hello President." Hikaru Utada didn't get up either.
Originally, she should have stood up to show her respect for Katsuto Matsuura, but Katsuto Matsuura had slammed her face just now, which made her feel very unhappy, plus there was a behemoth standing behind her, so there was no need to show special respect to Katsuto Matsuura.
Other artists responded to Katsuto Matsuura's greetings, and those who had a good relationship and wanted to be close responded to 'Good President', and those who had an ordinary relationship and didn't ask for anything nodded in response.
"Li Jun." Katsuto Matsuura gave Li Lin a smile, "Can you come out with me?" I have something to discuss with you. ”
"I'm sorry, guys, I'll leave for a moment." Li Lin said apologetically and left the dressing room with Katsuto Matsuura.
As soon as he came out, Katsuto Matsuura stopped, "Li Jun probably doesn't know why Lu Daoguang Xiong is targeting you!" ”
"I really don't know what to do." Li Lin shook his head, at first he thought that Hikaru Utada was implicated in him because he took advantage of Ayumi Hamasaki's popularity to develop in Japan, but now it doesn't seem like this at all.
Hikaru Utada openly stretched out his hand to Huaxia and asked the princess to ban him, which was very unreasonable.
He is also a singer who has just sold tens of millions of albums, even if his foundation is unstable, it is not something that a princess can ban, the princess's ban is at most to make his path narrower, and it is impossible for him to leave the music industry.
In this case, Hikaru Utada still dares to open his mouth to block it, and there must be other forces behind it to support it.
It is likely that the princess was aware of this and kept her mouth shut, lest she herself be someone else's gun.
"Light Bear signed with EMI Records." Matsuura Katsuto made a small point, and Li Lin immediately realized.
EMI Records is an international record giant, it was established more than 100 years ago, is one of the world's top five record companies, in the twenties of the last century, EMI stretched out its hand to the Chinese music scene, and took root, launched a series of excellent artists, became one of the domestic record giants.
Perhaps it is because it pays too much attention to the relationship between the Chinese music scene, and Baidai Records, like other records, have not developed much in Japan and South Korea, even if EMI Records signed with Hikaru Utada, but it did not help Hikaru Utada very much, which is also the reason why Hikaru Utada's songs are played much less on Japanese TV than Ayumi Hamasaki.
If it weren't for Hikaru Utada, who was very talented and wrote some classic tracks, she would have been completely suppressed by Ayumi Hamasaki instead of being inseparable from Ayumi Hamasaki like she is now.
And now, the music scenes of China, Japan and South Korea are open to each other, and the hegemonic record companies of Japan and South Korea are aiming at the Chinese market.
The giants who have occupied a huge share of the Huaxia record market are naturally dissatisfied.
The first to shoot was EMI Records, his opponent was the Ibex Group, and his means of dealing with the Ibex Group was to defeat the gold medal record company that cooperated with the Ibex Group, unfortunately, Li Lin, who was the pillar of the gold medal record, became their primary target.
Hikaru Utada made an attack in the name of the Japanese queen and forced the princess, the queen who had a holiday with Li Lin, to block Li Lin, whether the princess really wanted to ban Li Lin or fake Li Lin, they didn't care.
Because what they want is a name, it is EMI Records that really wants to ban Li Lin, or it may be that several giants join forces to ban Li Lin.
But it's a pity that although the princess didn't see the leader of it, she instinctively felt that she might be used as a gunman, so she chose to be silent and chose not to cooperate.
And at this time, Katsuto Matsuura appeared, and he gently forced back Hikaru Utada.
No matter how high Hikaru Utada's status is in the Japanese entertainment circle, and no matter how arrogant Hikaru Utada is, as long as she does not give up the Japanese market for a day, as long as she does not become a real international superstar for a day, then she will not dare to be presumptuous in front of Katsuto Matsuura, the president of the iBakers Group, even if she is standing behind the international record giant Momoyo.
The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, this truth is applicable everywhere.
"Congratulations to Katsuto Matsuura." Li Lin congratulated with a smile.
Katsuto Matsuura was stunned, what do you mean by congratulating yourself? He came forward to resolve Hikaru Utada's attack on Li Lin, and explained to Li Lin who was going to deal with Li Lin, shouldn't Li Lin thank himself? How to congratulate yourself.
"Congratulations to Mr. Katsuto Matsuura for dismantling the means of EMI Records." Li Lin looked at Katsuto Matsuura with a smile.
He didn't know the inside story, he would thank Matsuura Katsuto for what happened just now, but Li Lin, who understood that he was suffering from the disaster of the pond fish, couldn't thank him.
Say a thousand things and ten thousand and his gold medal record is just the chicken that EMI Records used to fight the Ibex Group.
Punish someone as a warning to others!
He's a chicken, and what Momoyo really wants to fight is the monkey of the Ibex Group.
Matsuura Katsuto was stunned for a moment, and then reacted that this was because Li Lin didn't want to owe him a favor, but there was no dissatisfaction on his face, and they all knew very well who Momoyo Records was targeting.
"I didn't expect that my mind to enter the Chinese music scene was just rising, and it ushered in a blow." Matsuura Katsuto sighed, "I let you hurt the pond fish." ”
"I'm sorry."
As he spoke, Katsuto Matsuura bowed deeply, and his attitude was very sincere.
Li Lin dodged and avoided Matsuura Katsuto's bow, "President, I can't afford your courtesy." ”
"Besides, they didn't succeed today, did they?"
"Anyway, I accidentally hurt you." Katsu Matsuura: "I will definitely compensate you, so let's do it, our Bakers Group will fully cooperate with you in your development in South Korea." (To be continued......)
PS: The more I write, the more I feel that Li Lin seems to have a sense of guilt ......if he doesn't join the Bakers Group.
