Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 821 821. The Kirin is here
"The action is quite neat."

On TV, DREAMS COME TRUE performed on stage, and Iwahashi Masaki watched the TV screen and commented like this. -It is said that Shinichi Iwahashi has just received the certificate from Katsuhisa Hattori just now, and this has become the matter of the giraffe man again.

"However, maybe the person playing the giraffe tonight is not Shinichi?"

Iwahashi Masaki guessed casually, and Iwahashi Chiyo said without hesitation, "If anyone could pretend to be a giraffe, Shinichi wouldn't invite us to the concert."

"But even if I went to the concert, I can't tell that it's him." Yan Qiao will tell the truth.He took an orange and peeled it slowly, "It's better when I was on stage to accept the award just now."

In the eyes of General Yanqiao, the producer is better than the mascot.

"It would be nice to be able to accept the award on the stage like just now, and to be able to perform like now." Chiyo Iwahashi replied.

The old couple spoke the truth and were calm.But for some reason, it sounds inexplicably a little bit of arguing with each other.

"That's right." Yanqiao Masaki played his cold-blooded speaking skills again, "This way we can play twice."

Asako is married, and Shinichi Iwahashi is going to participate in the Record Awards and Red and White Song Concert tonight. On New Year's Eve, Masaki Iwahashi and Chiyo Iwahashi will spend together.The child was not there, and the house was quiet, but neither of the two of them felt deserted, it would be better to say that they were used to it and were indifferent.

At the opening of the Red and White Song Concert tonight, even Masaki Iwahashi and Chiyo Iwahashi found it boring. After switching the channel to TBS TV's Record Awards, they didn't switch back.

After watching Shizuka Kudo's performance, Shinichi Iwahashi came to the stage to receive the project award, other songwriters and singers he knew or didn't know came to the stage to receive the award, DREAMS COME TRUE sang their song that won the gold award this year...

"Finally, it's time to announce this year's annual awards—" On the TV screen, the male host said these words.The main event of the grand prize was officially staged.

Inside the Budokan, there were buzzing whispers in the auditorium.

The host opened the card in his hand, with a solemn expression, and read the name on it, "No. 30 Second Record Awards, the winner of the Annual Grand Prize is Misora ​​Hibari-san, "Chuan の 流れの ように" (浜の流れのように) (流の流れのように) (流の流れのように).

Chiyo Iwahashi, who was sitting in front of the TV, let out an "ah", "Sure enough."

Different from the previous Grand Awards, when the grand prize winner was announced, there was overwhelming cheers in the arena. This time, the singers and audience present applauded quite seriously.

I don't know where the applause started first, but the audience continued for a long time.I don't know who took the lead, but in the area where singers and industry insiders were sitting, everyone stood up one after another.

And on the big screen on the stage, after the grand prize winner was announced, the official photo of Hibari Misora ​​was shown on it.

"On June 24th of this year, Misora ​​Hibari-san died of illness. During his lifetime, he left behind such masterpieces as "The Stream Never Ends" that will be recorded in the annals of music history..."

The hostess lowered her tone and calmly spoke the award speech prepared for Hibari Misora.

"Because Misora-san has passed away, and the award has been held for the first time in history, the winner of the annual award cannot be present to receive the award performance." The male host took over the conversation.

While the two hosts spoke alternately, the singers who were still present tonight, and the enka singers who came to the Daesang Awards specially for Hibari Misora, slowly gathered on the stage.

"So, next, everyone on the stage, who walked side by side with Misora-san, and watched Misora-san's back, will jointly complete the performance of this year's Daesang Song."

"Please listen to the No.30 [-]nd Record Awards winning work "The Stream Never Ends"."

Yanqiao Jiangming looked at the people on the stage who were preparing to sing together on the TV screen, "There must be such a link in tonight's Red and White Song Concert."

"After all, it's Hibari-san Misora." Chiyo Iwahashi also started peeling the oranges.

Masaki Iwahashi mentioned casually, "I thought Shinichi's band would have a chance to win the grand prize..." After thinking about it, he continued to be silent, "However, even if he wins the grand prize anyway, he won't be able to see that person when receiving the prize." It's him."

At this time, even Iwahashi Chiyo, who was used to it for a long time, began to feel cold, and picked up a hot teacup.

……

The commemoration of Hibari Misora ​​at the Red and White Song Festival, the public knows that there will be no shortage.However, there is also DREAMS COME TRUE among the singers who took the lead in commemorating, which surprised many people.

The commemorative link for Hibari Misora ​​was arranged at the end of the first half of the Red and White Song Concert.

DREAMS COME TRUE received the gold award and continued to catch up.First commemorate Hibari Misora.Afterwards, the second half began, and then I sang my own songs.

The annual grand prize went smoothly to the name of Hibari Misora, and when the matter was settled, Shinichi Iwahashi also breathed a sigh of relief.

Avoid this sudden pit, and right now, there's a smooth upward avenue ahead of the band.Next, it is time to continue charging to a higher position.

The past will not come again, and the stopped can no longer turn.This moment tonight belongs to Hibari Misora, but DREAMS COME TRUE has a future.

According to the previous rehearsal, the band earnestly completed the performance of Hibari Misora's commemorative session.As long as the performance of this commemorative link ends without incident, this page will be turned.

Of course, the band is by no means without gains.

This time the incident was over, and the band's favorability with the Yange School was well established. Of course, there is no such thing as "giving up awards", but since DREAMS COME TRUE can pose as a junior, he is naturally a person who has inherited the spirit of Hibari Misora.

Then, naturally, he is also a good junior in the music world that the Yange school should treat well.

To put it bluntly, the people of the Enka school also knew the reason for this series of quiet actions, and they also knew why the producer behind the band did this.

This year, the Enge School wants to save face, and the band not only saves their face, but also adds a bit of glory to them.This kind of thing can't be brought up on the table, although "human feelings" must never be admitted, but there must be some.

The first half of the Red and White Song Concert ended, and the record awards on the other side also came to an end.In the second half of the battle, there were no old singers who were too old to make you sleepy, popular singers and band idols, evergreen trees in the music industry, the backbone of performing songs and songs, and singers from South Korea and Xiangjiang...

It's finally here that it's exciting.With the atmosphere of "New Year's Eve Gala".

This can be felt as long as you stay at the scene of the NHK hall.After all, the audience seats at the scene were full.

At the beginning of the second half, DREAMS COME TRUE, as the band that will fight in the second half, appeared on stage with the singers who will perform in the second half.

Tonight, Akina Nakamori also performed in the second half.She stood in an inconspicuous place, clapping her hands happily, not like a singer who came to participate in the performance, but like an audience who came to join in the fun.

Yanqiao Shenyi turned his head and found it interesting to see her childish appearance.

……

Last year, DREAMS COME TRUE was arranged to play against the male fighting group, and the idol band was defeated during the voting.This year, there was no one in the male fighting group, and the opponent was replaced by another group, Johnny.It seems that the production team of Red and White Songs deliberately let the band fight Johnny again.

However, this year is a "hard battle", because the object of the battle is GENJI, the most popular group under Johnny's.

Of course, except for those singers who have a particularly strong sense of victory and defeat and compete with their opponents, most of the singers who come to the Red and White Song Concert have the mentality of a year-end party, and will not really "fight" aggressively.

When the performance of DREAMS COME TRUE and Hikari GENJI was about to begin, both the band and the group waited beside the stage.

These idols in the group are young, and most of them have a frivolous and cheerful personality. Only a few teenagers seem a little shy.The face of the group is Zhu Xingheji, and he is a student who is so flippant that it reminds people of being messy and provocative in middle school.

From top to bottom, he exudes the temperament of a bear child.

The grown-up idol, with a reputation for flirtatiousness and spoiled by fans, was utterly excited by the giraffe guy in the band when he met the band.

A malicious excitement.

To be honest, these young idols are still the seniors of the band.

"Qilin'er is here—!!" Zhu Xing and Ji came together laughing and laughing.

He showed a standard idol smile, and the expression on his face looked quite pleasing, probably an expression that female fans quite bought into.

When an idol, every word and deed, every frown and smile, almost always think about how to reflect their own charm.

"Hi everyone, I'll give you more advice later!" Zhu Xingheji looked cheerful, with a pure and innocent expression.Only his teammates, seeing him like this, showed a subtle expression of "coming soon".

It is not only Zhu Xing and Ji who are spoiled, but also other "Guang Genji" who are spoiled.

Still following the group's manager, knowing that Zhu Xing and Ji are not easy-going, he hinted at him from the side.Zhu Xing and Ji pouted, showing a dissatisfied expression.

At this time, the staff came over and let Hikari GENJI enter.No way, even though it was a disappointment, several people followed and walked away.

"What a frivolous person." Mihe-chan complained in Yanqiao Shinichi's ear.

Yanqiao Shinichi let out a "hmm", and felt the same way.

……

A group of shining male idols had just appeared on the stage, and screams were heard one after another in the NHK lobby.

Only GENJI played first, and the band waited at the side of the stage for the time being.Shinichi Iwahashi looked at the monitor and thought to himself, the auditorium in the NHK hall is really interesting.In the same area, a look of indifference and a look of excitement can often appear at the same time.

It's rare to see this situation in other programs.

And when the performance was going on, all the fans of GENJI in the venue were busy helping the idol to heat up the atmosphere.The indifferent audience, infected by the gorgeous and dazzling performance, also began to loosen their expressions and applaud appropriately.

Thanks to the loyal fans, the venue of the Red and White Song Concert, in an instant, had the illusion that it was a special session for GENJI.

When GENJI performed, as usual, he brought a group of Johnny's JR backup dancers.In the subtitles below, the names of the little boys who accompanied the dancers were typed.

"SMAP".

The performance of the white group ended, and it was changed to DREAMS COME TRUE. Compared with Hikari GENJI, there were significantly fewer screams on the scene, only one or two occasionally heard.However, if you pay attention to the auditorium, except for the judges who sit at the front and have a straight face from beginning to end, there are almost no indifferent audiences.

Tonight, the band will perform a special suite at the Red and White Song Concert.

On the NHK side, from the introduction of the band to the performance, they were given 9 minutes for the whole session, and the official performance time was about seven and a half minutes.

In an occasion like the Red and White Song Festival, where time and qualifications are strictly limited, a band that made its debut in the second year can get far more performance time than other singers and can sing suites, all because it is popular enough and the ratings are good enough .

In addition, it may not be because of this aspect that it cooperated with the Misora ​​Hibari commemorative session just now.

Guang GENJI brought a group of backup dancers and arranged the stage to be full.Here, the battle of DREAMS COME TRUE is not small.

In addition to the three members of the band, there are additional supporting musicians and a female harmony voice. Adding up, it is a lineup of eight members.

This year, the band's hit songs are "Eyes to me", the first million-dollar single in Heisei, and "Future Vision II", which was sung at the Red and White Song Festival last year.

At the end of the year, Shinichi Iwahashi was busy, and Nakamura performed the re-arrangement of the live version. At the beginning, he sang a refrain from "Future Vision II", which meant connecting last year and looking forward to the future.

After that, "Eyes to me" appeared as the main course, and the whole song was sung in one breath.

Because of Iwahashi Shinichi's request that the band not sing the whole song when participating in the music program, this "Eyes to me" is the first time that the whole song has been sung live on TV since its release.

The two hit songs, coupled with the band's outstanding live ability, easily lifted the atmosphere in the venue.Mei Hejiang sang to the fullest, running around on stage, interacting with her two Zeng Yi and supporting musicians.

However, people come and go crazy, and they only have fun in the small area in the middle of the stage, and they don't run around——

The New Year's Eve Gala program pays more attention to being stable than how to be outstanding.If the time is stuck, you can't sing overtime, and at the same time, you must ensure that there are no stage accidents.

Like sabotage onstage, or a guitar catching fire or something... you'll be blacklisted.

Like TM NETWORK, which debuted like them last year, because Tetsuya Komuro, who was in charge of the synthesizer of the band, played to the point of enjoyment, he forgot about the red and white song party, and all kinds of tricks one after another, successfully achieved " In the first appearance, it overtimed to make NHK furious".

This year, NHK lived up to its reputation as a small belly, and really kicked TM NETWORK out of the list of participating singers.

"Look here and smile and don't be shy, Smile, Smile, Smile~"

Meihejiang faced the camera, the auditorium, and everyone on the same stage, repeating this golden sentence for taking pictures.Not only is it a golden sentence for taking photos, but it is also effective for enlivening the atmosphere.

Everyone in the auditorium unconsciously followed her gesture and waved lightly.The fans who cheered for Hikari GENJI just now with supportive round fans also cheered enthusiastically.Some of them were careless, and simply waved Guang Genji's support fan.

This song "Eyes to me" is coming to an end.

However, it was not the ending as imagined, but the melody of the third song appeared again——

"So happy! So happy! I like it!"

This famous song, which was asked not to be sung by NHK last year because of the suspicion of cursing the locust to death, was sung as the end of the band's suite at the Hongbai Song Festival in the first year of Heisei.
