Chapter 236: Rushing to New York
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The set ratings are 15%, the final episode ratings are 27.4%, and the average ratings are 17.5%, which is not strong, but as a novice, it is enough to go against the sky, and the key thing is that in the case of 15% of the episodes, "The Queen's Classroom" successfully achieved contrarian growth, and the final 27.4% ratings are amazing, under this rating, "The Queen's Classroom" is enough to afford the title of "social phenomenon", maybe in the future, when the world evaluates this year's TV series, Of course, Takuya Kimura's "HERO" will be mentioned first, but after that, maybe "The Queen's Classroom" will also be mentioned, because this is a masterpiece that ended the year and got high ratings.
As for Shinsuke Shimada? It's been a long time since he's done other programs than his title program and made public appearances, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that he's avoiding the limelight, Fuji Channel's special program, because it's a forcible program, big stars and big producers have also used a lot, and if you want to recoup your investment, 1o% ratings are not enough.
Even so, when the ratings are not too ugly, Shimada Shinsuke and Fuji TV did not lose much money, but losing money is a trivial matter, the key is to be ashamed, Shinsuke and Fuji TV can be regarded as capsizing in the gutter, Fuji TV is nothing, not to mention a loss, it is a loss of one hundred and eighty times, it is still one of the five private enterprises, and the TV station will not have any fear or dissatisfaction with Zhou Xiao, after all, the competition between the two sides is a normal competition. But Shimada Shinsuke is different, he used a lot of things that couldn't be put on the table before and after, but he still lost to such a senior who had just debuted for more than a year, and Shinsuke He was embarrassed and it can be said that he was all thrown home, in this case, there was no need to do it at all, Shimada Shinsuke shrank back, and it is estimated that at least half a year, he will be embarrassed to come out again.
As for the smear of Zhou Xiao in the middle of the film, it was really not Shimada Shinsuke's doing. Yoshimoto will not restrict such a big star from speaking and doing things, but Shimada Shinsuke has no face to do this, as for Yoshimoto, they still want to repair the relationship with Zhou Xiao, let alone make a move.
Although it wasn't Shimada Shinsuke who did it, Shimada Shinsuke was still very happy when he saw Zhou Xiao deflated at the beginning, but the good times didn't last long, and Kazuo Tokumitsu's shot made him so angry that he fell something, although his status in the entertainment industry was not low. is still a little worse than Deguang, and relatively speaking, he is a comedian who laughs and scolds undignified, but Deguang and Fu are absolutely orthodox in three views, and they have taken a lifetime of glorious and correct line announcers, and the two of them are not born with the same level in status, Shimada Shinsuke must earn more, but if you want to say that the two of you are put together, who will ordinary viewers believe. The result of this answer has been doomed since it was proposed, and it can even be said that even if Tokumitsu Kazuo refers to the deer as a horse and Shimada Shinsuke is right, I am afraid that the first reaction of the people will be on Tokumitsu's side.
When December enters the last ten days. Zhou Xiao and Sakai Izumi came to the airport in Tokyo, and the two were about to get on a plane and fly to New York, accompanied by many film crew members and musicians. This time I went to New York to record the program, and only used a part of the staff of the New York MTV TV station in the selection of musicians, on the one hand, I practiced with Zhou Xiao and others. On the other hand, Japanese musicians are no worse than those in New York, and they are much cheaper when it comes to hiring people.
Of course, the leaders this time are all being companies and Sakai springs, as for Zhou Xiao, he is actually just a musician and a supporting role, but as a supporting role, Zhou Xiao's importance is also more subtle, because this time, the song "1ETGO" is the most important, and MTV took a fancy to the excellent quality of this song, so he noticed Sakai Spring Water and asked him to record the program, it can be said that Zhou Xiao is the most important person who contributed to this appearance.
"Sister, shall we go?" Zhou Xiao dragged his luggage and said to Sakai Spring, compared with Zhou Xiao with huge black-framed sunglasses and a hat, Sakai Spring is much more relaxed, ponytail and shirt are her most common and ordinary dress, whether it is walking on the street or in such a noisy place as the airport, her dress has not caused any waves, her name is almost unknown to Japan, and her appearance is actually known to the vast majority of Japanese, but she has not appeared on TV for a long time, even if most people see her face, In a short period of time, it is very likely that you will not be able to reflect who this very familiar Qingli woman is, so she missed the opportunity to meet the big star.
"Little brother, I'm really sorry, it's going to be the New Year, and I'm going to pull you abroad." Sakai Izumi said apologetically, she didn't think of this when she first asked Zhou Xiao to attend as well, and it was too late when she remembered the trouble with time.
"It's nothing, anyway, my parents are both in China and I haven't heard from me for a long time, so I'm worried that I won't have anywhere to go during the Chinese New Year." Zhou Xiao said.
"You can spend time with your girlfriend." Sakai Izumi said.
"She has a lot of activities to catch up with during the Chinese New Year, but this time is the busiest." Zhou Xiaodao. Last year, Yuko Ogura had not officially debuted, but this year's New Year, the girl has become a well-known little photo idol, and there are many programs to be recorded during the New Year, and even a TV station invited her to do a New Year's Eve program. Artists like Zhou Xiao are truly free and can manage their time at will, but it is estimated that there are only one or two out of a thousand artists in the entertainment industry, and the vast majority of the rest are the type that obeys the orders of their agents when they do everything they do and shoot, and they are so busy that they have almost no time to think about these.
Sakai Spring knows Yuko Ogura, it's too normal for Japanese people to fall in love or something, not to mention that Zhou Xiao's conditions are so good, and even said, after seeing Yuko Ogura, Sakai Spring Water is still a little uneven, this Yuko Ogura is very cute, but how can such a small photo idol be worthy of Zhou Xiao? This so-called unworthiness is not that Yuko Ogura is not worthy of Zhou Xiao's social status and achievements, as long as Zhou Xiao doesn't care about these things, then no one has anything to say. Sakai Izumi's concern is that Yuko Ogura is definitely not worthy of Zhou Xiao, at least in terms of talent, and the two may rarely have a common language when chatting, and this may become the main reason for the separation between lovers.
"It's really a poor brother, but the loneliest during the New Year, or this New Year, you will go back to my hometown, right?" Sakai Izumi asked, Zhou Xiao had been to Sister Quanshui's hometown. Her real brother and mother have also seen her.
Zhou Xiao thought about it, during the Chinese New Year last year, he spent it at Uncle Inoue's house, and if he didn't have this invitation this year, he would probably go there, but if he could be with Sister Quanshui, there would be no need to go to the uncle's house.
"Really? Then I'm going to disturb my sister's house! Zhou Xiao said.
"But just this once, next year, you must find a girlfriend who can live with, otherwise my sister will worry about your ......" Sakai Izumii said what was in his heart without paying attention. Speaking of this, I don't seem to be optimistic about him and Yuko Ogura now.
Zhou Xiao also heard the meaning of Sakai Spring's words, and he asked a little surprised and cautious: "Sister, don't you like her?" ”
"Don't like it? No, I'm just wrong, okay, the plane is about to take off, let's go. Sakai Spring pulled Zhou Xiao and hurriedly boarded the road.
It takes more than ten hours to fly from Tokyo to New York, and among the people who went to New York this time, Zhou Xiao and Sakai Quanshui took first class because they were the most important stars, and the others could only do economy class, which gave Zhou Xiao and Sister Quanshui more than ten hours of alone time. This time is really precious for him, but the sister in front of him doesn't seem to have any superfluous ideas, just treats the people around him as a younger brother, and watches movies and listens to songs after getting on the plane. didn't care much about Zhou Xiao's storage.
When he stepped off the plane again, it was already New York City, and because he slept well on the plane, Zhou Xiao and Sakai Izumi were both full of energy.
"Want to go shopping? I'm familiar with this place. As he left the airport, Sakai Izumi asked.
"Okay." Zhou Xiao nodded and replied. Although it was not the first time he had been here, the last time he came to encounter that kind of thing, it was destined not to give him time to easily explore New York City. And this trip is very easy, after arriving today, I will take a day off tomorrow, rehearsal the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, I will officially enter the work of program recording, there is no such relaxed working environment for you in Japan, but here, all the expenses are in charge of MTV, Zhou Xiao and Sakai Spring Water are also happy.
Celebrities like to go abroad, it's not that the moon is relatively round abroad, but few people recognize themselves abroad, happy to go shopping easily, and experience the rare freedom in China, perhaps it is precisely for this reason that Zhou Xiao and Sakai Spring Water can be said to be extremely relaxed when they walk on the streets of New York, especially Sakai Spring Water, many actions that can't be done in China, it seems to be extremely natural here, for example, now, she is walking forward with one of Zhou Xiao's arms, This kind of behavior does not mean that she has any intimate relationship with Zhou Xiao, it is just a sister carrying a handsome and just right tall brother, if you want to say what is the difference between her and her lover's arm, Sister Quanshui is holding the clothes of Zhou Xiao's inner ring of her arm with one hand, and her body is inadvertently leaning out, paying attention to the surrounding scenery and items, and if it is a pair of lovers, it is often possible to stick to it as tightly as she wears.
Of course, Zhou Xiao thinks more, but it is useless to think more, in the face of this sister beside him, he can't say the slightest blasphemous, he is afraid that the relationship between the two will be problematic because of this offense, in order not to have problems, he does not want to take any risks.
Shopping is a woman's gender talent, plus Sakai Spring Water and Zhou Xiao are not short of money, when they take them back to the hotel, they buy a lot of big and small things, including gifts to take back to give to people, and there are also things that the two of them give each other after buying, for example, Sakai Spring Water bought a suit for Zhou Xiao, and Zhou Xiao bought two pairs of slippers, these two pairs of slippers are very cheap but chic, and they are a pair of large and small couples, Sakai Spring Water did not think too much about it after accepting the small pair of slippers but was very happy, Of course, she is not the kind of woman who likes money, no matter what Zhou Xiao gives her, in her eyes, as long as her heart is there, and these two pairs of very thoughtful slippers are the things she is most satisfied with.
After eating in the hotel, the exhausted two people who had played for a day finally separated and went back to their rooms, and the next day they were tired of shopping and playing together until the evening.
"The bathroom in my room is full of water, and the people who called the hotel today don't know how it was repaired." After returning to the hotel again, the two were on their way back to their rooms, Sakai Izumi said.
"It should be no problem, they are a five-star hotel." Zhou Xiaodao.
Broken bathroom? When a man and a woman are separated from each other, the bathroom is broken, and Zhou Xiao, who has read too many film and television novels, thought crookedly in an instant, and he even thought of it completely from borrowing the bathroom to the final result. However, Sakai Spring Water next to him didn't seem to have this idea, and after talking to Zhou Xiao about such a topic, the two of them had already arrived at the door of the room.
"Good night then! Go to bed early, and refuel tomorrow for the rehearsal! Sakai Spring said, the unscrupulous play in the past two days made Zhou Xiao almost forget that the woman in front of him was 35 years old, and she looked full of young vitality.
"Good night, sister." Zhou Xiao waved his hand and said.
Zhou Xiao, who returned to the room, changed her clothes and then lay on the bed and watched TV, neither taking a bath nor sleeping, she was waiting. Waiting for Sister Quanshui's bathroom over there to be completely broken, but after waiting for two hours, the knock on the door did not sound for a long time, and Zhou Xiao, who was helpless, had no choice but to stand up and really take a bath, while taking a bath, he muttered for a year: "What a five-star hotel, I don't even know what customer needs are, why is it so efficient......"
The day of rehearsal passed quickly, and the entire program team and band, except for Zhou Xiao, were all very powerful professional musicians. The whole 60-minute performance, after doing a lot of practice before, was perfect after only two or three times. All the musicians present praised Sakai Izumizu's singing skills, but they were even more appreciated by these people. It's Zhou Xiao, not how well he plays the guitar, it's his age and the fact that he wrote the song "1etgo", the musicians present are all people who know pop music well. Naturally, you can hear the excellence of this song.
There are still some differences between Japanese music and European and American music, and relatively speaking, European and American music is actually more advanced. After all, they showed it earlier, and Zhou Xiao's song is obviously European and American style, and it is a very, very advanced European and American style, even compared with European and American music in the same period, it is not inferior, such a song can be written by a nineteen-year-old boy from Japan, it is really powerful.
"After Miss Quanshui's performance is over, Zhou Xiao, your company will ask someone who can speak English to answer the phone, maybe there will be many European and American companies and singers to negotiate with you about covering this song." One of the musicians said.
For the praise that Zhou Xiao received, Sakai Spring Water is honored, Zhou Xiao even saw that every time she was praised, Sister Quanshui smiled very happily and exaggeratedly, as if the person who was praised was not Zhou Xiao but her.
The rehearsal was followed by another night, and on December 23rd, the recording of the show finally began.
Because it is an unplugged stage singing, although it is said to be a recorded program, in fact, there is an audience on the scene, and the recording will not be repeated at all.
Some of the viewers at the scene were loyal viewers of the program "MTV.UNP Lu GGGED", and the other part was basically Japanese students in the United States and Japanese Americans.
Zhou Xiao and Sakai Quanshui first went backstage, and secretly looked out from the backstage, the scenery Zhou Xiao saw made him nervous and almost crazy, the recording of the show was not in any venue or studio but in a luxury hotel, the back of the stage is New York's Fifth Avenue, in the case of people coming and going, presumably pedestrians can see the stage and singers facing away from them as soon as they look up, and the hall is already full of audiences at the moment, these audiences are all wearing very formal suits and evening dresses, Attend this event as if you were going to a very formal banquet.
Such a scene...... Zhou Xiao really hasn't experienced it.
Zhou Xiao in his previous life was just a dead otaku who did not enter the stream, and he had almost no opportunities to socialize in the state of being a freelancer. After crossing over, I became a star, in fact, there will be a party celebration or something at the end of the three days, but this kind of thing in the entertainment industry, in fact, most of them are more casual, because the workers in the entertainment industry are also of any grade and level, both big directors and actors, as well as ordinary small ADs and small staff, it is rare to have such a formal dinner venue.
"Tooth defeat, tooth defeat, this time it's amazing!" Zhou Xiao covered his heart and said, he was a little envious of Sister Quanshui, but he also understood that he might not stand on this stage as a singer in his life, and he did have a little weight when it came to the identity of a music creator, but to be on this kind of show, the most important thing is to rely on singing skills, and singing skills, he has some but not much, at most it is Cheng dù who is a little better than idol singers, this kind of Cheng dù has released an album and opened a concert that is not so rigorous, but it is enough to talk about this kind of stage...... In his life, I am afraid that there is no chance.
"Little brother, what are you looking at?" Just when Zhou Xiao was nervous about the huge stage in front of him, a voice sounded behind him.
It's Sister Quanshui, she has already changed her clothes and come out.
Zhou Xiao turned around, and then at that moment, a heartbeat that was more exciting than just now, and a feeling of suffocation struck him. (To be continued......)
