Without saying a word, the plane landed smoothly at Tokyo International Airport.

Tokyo International Airport is actually Haneda Airport, and Tokyo also has a new Tokyo International Airport, which is called Narita Airport.

At this time, in Japan, out of old habits and for ease of distinction, Tokyo International Airport was still called Haneda Airport, and New Tokyo Airport was called Narita Airport.

Narita Airport has now opened, but it is a newly built airport, so there are not many flights.

During this period, direct flights from China to Japan landed at Haneda Airport.

After getting off the plane, going through security, entering the terminal, getting the suitcase, and quickly entering the waiting room.

However, in the waiting room, Cao Zhiqiang and his entourage did not see Zuo Tian Yazhi, who said that he would come to greet him, but saw a strange young man in a suit and leather shoes in the crowd.

The reason why Cao Zhiqiang noticed the young man in a suit and leather shoes was not because the other party looked a little similar to Zuo Tian Masashi, but because the other party was holding a big wooden sign with the words "Welcome Mr. Cao Zhiqiang from Beiping" in large letters.

Well, the sign says these things, and it is clear that it is to welcome Cao Zhiqiang.

So Cao Zhiqiang took two "secretaries" and walked quickly to the young man holding a wooden card.

"Hello." Walking to the front and back, Cao Zhiqiang smiled directly and met with a day, "I am Cao Zhiqiang, who are you?" It's Masashi-kun Zuoda, did you want to come and pick me up? What about others, why didn't they come? ”

Hearing Cao Zhiqiang speak in such Japanese, the young man holding the sign was stunned.

After subconsciously glancing at a very ordinary-looking woman in a suit beside him, the man who looked a little similar to Zuo Tian Masashi hurriedly handed the sign to the young woman next to him, and then bowed to Cao Zhiqiang.

After bowing, the man in the suit smiled and said to Cao Zhiqiang: "You are the Cao Sang that my brother has been talking about, hello, I am Zuo Tian Fanli, and Zuo Tian Yazhi is my brother." Since my brother is now a public figure, it is inconvenient for me to show his head, so I will pick you up instead of him this time. ”

Speaking of this, the other party seemed to see Cao Zhiqiang frowning, thinking that the other party didn't believe it, so he hurriedly took out a wallet from his arms and pulled out a photo from it: "Look, this is a group photo of our three brothers and sisters, and there are brothers, me and sisters on it." ”

Cao Zhiqiang looked at the photo and found that in the group photo of the three above, there was Zuo Tian Yazhi and this guy who called himself Zuo Tian Fanli, and there was also a girl who was not very good-looking, but very cheerful and lively.

"I see." Cao Zhiqiang returned the photo to the other party.

After retracting the photo, Zuo Tian Fanli smiled slightly, and then said: "Cao Sang, although it is a bit presumptuous, this is the first time I have met you, so I am not sure of your true identity.

However, my brother said that when he was in China, he used to take a group photo with you, but when he returned to Japan, he was in a hurry and forgot to take the photo.

Then my brother also said that when you talked on the phone before, he specifically asked you to bring the photos you took together, and you agreed at that time.

So, did you bring your photos? Can you show me a group photo? ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Of course it's no problem, but it's inconvenient here, let's go and talk about it first." ”

So, the group came to the rest area and sat on the chairs together, and then, Cao Zhiqiang opened his suitcase in public, took out an envelope from it, and took out a photo of him and Zuo Tian Masashi from the envelope.

After seeing the photo of Cao Zhiqiang and Zuo Tian Yazhi, Zuo Tian Fanli nodded: "That's right, it's my brother, it seems that you are really Cao Sang." ”

Immediately afterwards, Sauda Shigeri introduced the woman next to him, named Mami Hojo, who was the translator he specially brought.

However, because Cao Zhiqiang's Japanese is excellent, this translator has not had the opportunity to speak from the beginning to the present.

Now, when we started introducing each other, Mami Hojo finally had a chance to talk.

Although the other party is a translator, Cao Zhiqiang listens to what the other party says, and he is so-so, with a strong Japanese emphasis, and it seems that he is an authentic Japanese.

Of course, Cao Zhiqiang also took the opportunity to introduce his two attachΓ© secretaries, namely An Ping and Xu Chun.

Anping is fine, but Xu Chun's Japanese is quite good, and his original identity is also Cao Zhiqiang's secretary and Japanese translator.

After confirming each other's identities and introducing each other, Sakuda Shigeri warmly welcomed everyone to follow him, saying that his brother was already waiting for them at home.

Next, the group quickly left the terminal, but instead of a chauffeur or taxi, they went to take the monorail.

By far this is the easiest and fastest way to get to Tokyo from Haneda Airport.

Of course, taxis are available, but taxis are too expensive, and they are generally taken by train.

The train arrives at Hamamatsucho Station and gets off at the subway, then transfer to the subway and get off at Roppongi.

When you arrive in Roppongi, take a taxi, get off in a residential area, and walk a little further to a small cottage with a single courtyard.

Well, it looks like a two-story villa, but Cao Zhiqiang knows that this is actually a famous household building in Japan, and ordinary people live in this kind of place, and the rich Japanese at this time generally do not live here.

However, considering that this is Tokyo, and Masashi Sauda seems to have a lot of debts, it is understandable that he chose to live here.

After pushing the door in, he saw Masashi Sada in the small courtyard, and a young woman beside him who was not good-looking, but was dressed quite foreign.

The young woman Cao Zhiqiang had the impression that when Zuo Tian Fanli took out the photo before, she was in the group photo.

And along the way, Zuo Tian Fanli didn't talk much about his family, so Cao Zhiqiang knew at a glance that this woman should be Zuo Tian Yazhi's sister, Zuo Tian Reiko.

Sure enough, after entering the house and introducing her, the woman was indeed Reiko Zuoda, Masashi's own sister, and she was also a part-time singer.

The reason why I say that I am a part-time singer is because Reiko Sauda works as an ordinary employee at Sada Co., Ltd. and as a singer at Sada Planning.

Sada Co., Ltd., actually the company of Grandpa Sakashi, is registered in Nagasaki, and its main business is to run the timber business and also do some trade.

At present, the president of this Zuoda Club is Masato Zuoda, the father of Masashi Zuoda, and the president is Masashi Zuoda's younger brother Mori Zuoda, Reiko Zuoda is the treasurer, and the second brother of Zuoda runs the Zuoda Club.

As for Sada's planning, it has nothing to do with Saoda Co., Ltd., but it is actually Sakata's own personal office, similar to a personal company, with the main business being music production and the side business being making movies.

In other words, Masashi Sada actually broke away from the family company a long time ago and began personal development.

Not only that, but thanks to Masashi Sada, Sada Kaisha was able to come back to life and survive to this day.

It turned out that in 1957, the Sada Club suffered heavy losses in the Isahaya flood, and the debtor at that time was Masato Sada, but fortunately, Masashi Sada became a pop singer and continued to sing to help pay off the money, and it was not until 1975 that the debt was completely paid off.

But later, after Masashi Sada became famous, controversy followed, and many critics began to criticize his songs for not being positive enough, especially after his single "Guan Bai Declaration" was released, which caused a large number of women's rights at this time.

Because of this, Masashi Sauda went to China with his father to relax, and the idea of filming "Yangtze River" was born and put into practice.

Originally, he and his father thought that this would be easy, and they thought that raising 200 million yen would be a good shot.

As a result, when the actual shooting was completed, there were many problems and expenses, and the actual cost was more than 3 billion yen after the shooting.

Throwing out the 200 million yen that Masashi Sada prepared himself, he actually owes 2.8 billion yen in debt, and if you add interest, it is actually 3.5 billion yen in debt.

Cao Zhiqiang's Zuotian Yazhi in his previous life, spent most of his life paying off his debts, and after he paid off his debts, he was 58 years old and was dying.

From this point of view, Zuo Tian Masashi is actually quite sad, he made a good documentary, but spent most of his life to pay it back.

In order to repay his debts, Masashi Sada is now working very hard.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that in 1982, he held 162 concerts in Japan, and later more than 100 concerts almost every year.

It's a pity that due to the boycott of a large number of feminists, and Masashi Zuoda desperately rushed to the stage in order to repay his debts, there was not much time to settle down, so he never released any more popular songs later, so that although his concerts were large, they were not very popular.

Originally, when he went to China this time, he also wanted to sell "Yangtze River" to CCTV, hoping to get a good price, but he ruthlessly refused.

There is no way, who makes the country poor now, and the central station does not have much money.

Moreover, Masashi Zuoda felt that there were many Chinese and wanted to hold concerts in China to make money, but after the actual event, he found that although there were many people who came and the scene was also very hot, the actual income was not as much as he earned by holding a concert in Japan.

There is no way, the domestic economy is still very weak, and it is completely incomparable with the Japanese economy.

is like Cao Zhiqiang, he used to want to go to Japan, and at first he also wanted to come to Japan to sing and make money.

It's just that the system came out with moths later and gave some special rewards that were difficult for individuals to use, which had an extra layer of purpose.

Anyway, Zuo Tian Masashi really regards Cao Zhiqiang as a close friend now.

If nothing else, just because Cao Zhiqiang once translated some of the songs he wrote privately into Japanese lyrics, with lyrics and scores, and gave them to Zuoda Masashi for free.

It is relying on those songs given by Cao Zhiqiang that Masashi Zuoda reinvented his glory in the Japanese music scene, no, it can't be said to reshape his glory, it should be a higher level and directly rush to the top singers.

I won't talk about other songs, just the single "Sakurasaka."

As soon as this song came out, it immediately became a king bomb, and so far, not only has the official sales of more than 2 million records in Japan, but even radio and television stations have frequently invited Masashi Sauda to do programs.

In addition, Masashi Zuoda also became famous because of this single, so much so that when he held another concert, not only was the venue full, but the ticket price also rose, directly increased by five times!

Not only that, "Sakurasaka's song, because of its beautiful and warm melody and lyrics similar to that of an infatuated man, is actually very popular with Japanese women."

It can be said that more than seventy percent of the fans of the song Sakurasaka are women, and there are many die-hard fans.

As a result, "Sakurasaka came out", which not only brought Masashi Sata's singing career to a higher level, but also made the majority of Japanese women forget Masashi Sada's former machismo, thinking that he was a prodigal son, and began to turn black and become fans.

The Japanese female group in the 80s, that was a bargain of consumption power, and the power was also a bargain, which directly put Sada Masashi on the altar.

Not only that, but this song also rushed out of Japan and began to conquer cities in East Asia and Southeast Asia, and Masashi Sada's name also began to break out of the country, not only in Japan and China.

However, today, the trend of "Sakurasaka" has gradually subsided, but it is difficult for Masashi Sauda to write a good song of a similar level.

If a person like Masashi Sauda can't take advantage of the victory and chase after him and make persistent efforts to come up with a good song, he will easily be topped by an endless stream of newcomers.

And the listener is also forgetful, no matter how good a song you listen to, you will be tired of listening to it for three months in a row.

Therefore, Zuo Tian Masashi invited Cao Zhiqiang to come over this time, firstly, to fulfill the promise of the original Sino-Japanese combination, and secondly, to hope that Cao Zhiqiang can give some powerful good songs, so that Zuo Tian Masashi can make persistent efforts and create more brilliance.

Even if Cao Zhiqiang doesn't have a new song for the time being, it doesn't matter.

Before Cao Zhiqiang's pop album in the mainland, that is, "Blooming Life", Zuo Tian Masashi thought it was very good.

If you can change the songs in this album to Japanese lyrics and sing them in Japan in the form of a group with Cao Zhiqiang, the effect should be good.

Of course, there is also a plan, Cao Zhiqiang sells the copyright of "Blooming Life" to Zuo Tian Masashi, and he sings "Blooming Life" alone in Japanese.

"Isn't it? Zuo Tian-kun. ”

Hearing that Zuo Tian Masashi couldn't wait to buy the Japanese copyright of "Blooming Life", Cao Zhiqiang immediately cried and laughed.

"I just came, and I haven't even drunk a sip of water, so you're going to talk to me about copyright trading? Too anxious, right? ”

"Ah, blame me, blame me!" Zuo Tian Yazhi slapped his head and grinned, "I'm sorry, Cao Sang, it's all because I'm in a hurry."

You don't know how stressed I have been these days, so I'm in a hurry. ”

"yes!" Reiko Zuo Tian smiled beside him, "My brother is right, he can't sleep well every day, smokes a lot of cigarettes and drinks a lot of wine every day, and his hair falls out a lot, if he continues like this, I'm afraid he will soon become bald." ”

"Yikes!" Masaki Sauda glared at his sister, "What are you talking about, how can you be so rude? Why don't you go and pour tea for Cao Sang! ”

"Hey, hey!" Reiko Zuo Tian covered her mouth and smiled, then straightened up and poured a cup of tea for Cao Zhiqiang, "Cao Sang, please drink tea." ”

Cao Zhiqiang nodded with a smile, took the tea and took a sip.

As soon as he took a sip, Cao Zhiqiang frowned.

Well, it's bitter!

It's really bitter, because it's not just an ordinary tea soaked in water, it's a matcha powder rinse.

During this period, most Japanese people, especially young people, liked to drink coffee or matcha.

Matcha, in particular, was once all the rage among young people in the eighties, and for a time overshadowed drinking coffee.

Matcha is a kind of green tea powder, which is instant like instant coffee, as long as you scoop a few spoons and pour it into a cup, you can drink it with hot water, which is much simpler and more convenient than regular tea, and can be regarded as instant tea powder.

Generally speaking, drinking matcha is equivalent to eating tea, because matcha is made by grinding tea leaves into ultra-fine powder and then mixing them with water to drink, which is no different from drinking tea porridge.

Therefore, drinking matcha has more active ingredients than simply drinking tea.

After all, only 35% of the tea is really dissolved in water, and only 35% of the active ingredients can be drunk when drinking tea, while drinking matcha is equivalent to eating the whole tea leaves, and there are naturally more ingredients that can be effectively used.

Experiments have proven that one bowl of matcha contains more nutrients than 30 cups of ordinary green tea.

Of course, because of this, the taste of matcha is really bitter, so it is generally sweetened with milk.

However, many Japanese people like to drink pure matcha, but they like the unique bitter taste, which is particularly refreshing.

But unfortunately, Cao Zhiqiang is not used to the taste of this pure matcha.

It's too top-notch!
