As a national program broadcast on Japan's annual Big Day (December 31st), "NHK Kohaku Uta Battle" naturally attracts a lot of attention. Although since entering the new century, the influence of television media has gradually declined, and with it

The attention of "NHK Kohaku Uta Battle" is also decreasing. In order to ensure its ratings, "NHK Kohaku Uta Battle" has also begun to compromise on popular culture.

You must know that when GENJI became popular, there were many male idol groups under Johnny's Agency, but NHK only allowed Johnny to arrange two groups to appear. After the new century, whether it is Johnny's Agency or

For AKB48 or the Wandering Brothers, more and more groups are appearing. At the same time, Korean pop groups from South Korea have also begun to become the key to attracting ratings for "NHK Kohaku Uta Battle".

As the most popular movie and TV series in Japan in the second half of this year, "The Embalmer" and Kimura Takuya, Ueto Aya and others are naturally the focus of the invitation. Not surprisingly, Kimura Takuya's SMAP got the status of "major guest"

, was responsible for singing at the end of "NHK Kohaku Uta Battle", and NHK also arranged a 15-minute long performance time for SMAP. Aya Ueto and the actor Motoki Masahiro of "The Embalmer" entered "NHK Red"

"Baige Kaisen" ranks as a special examiner; and the heroine Hirosue Ryoko of "The Embalmer" received an opportunity to host an outdoor connection, and this status has always been reserved for announcers.

In the Japanese entertainment industry, announcers are a specialized category. Their status is generally slightly higher than that of actors, because the academic qualifications of announcers are very high. For example, the news announcers at NHK and the five major broadcasters do not have the academic qualifications of Tokyo University.

Kyoto University is also a school at the same level as Qingcheng, so "NHK Kohaku Uta Battle" really made a lot of compromises for the sake of the program's ratings.

Lin Junxiu was also invited by the program team to be a "special guest performer". Although "NHK Red and White Song Battle" is a singing competition between the red group and the white group, some additional special guests will be invited to sing.

However, if they do not participate in the red group or white group, they will usually be called the "gold group". During the live broadcast, when the TV screen shows the introduction of the singer, a small golden square will be displayed behind the name, unlike those who officially participated.

Singer is a small red or white square.

When Lin Junxiu was approached by the program team, he almost forgot that he was a singer, but Lin Junxiu did not object to appearing on the show. He rarely appears in Japanese entertainment variety shows recently, which is not conducive to him bringing AKB48 with him.

Let’s fly together. After thinking about it, Lin Junsu planned to make a medley of Japanese singles he had released and sing them on the show. After hearing that Lin Junsu planned to review his “singing career” on the show, the program team

The director almost knelt down to express his thanks. Who doesn’t know that Lin Junxiu is extremely taboo about his identity as an idol (Lin Junxiu: No!), but this time Lin Junxiu is not only willing to sing again on the show for himself, but is also willing to summarize

Let’s take a look at my career as a singer. This is definitely a ratings hit!

Although Lin Junxiu thinks that it was an accident that he became an idol, but since he is going to sing in Hongbai again as an idol this time, Lin Junxiu still feels that he has to perform well. Fortunately, although Lin Junxiu has not deliberately sang in these years,

But the habit of hanging his voice has been maintained, so Lin Junxiu's voice and pitch are still there. The only change may be that the boy's voice has become more mature, and boys will naturally tend to have a lower pitch during their development. However, Lin Junxiu's voice is still there.

Handsome's mixed singing skills are still there, and he can still bring back the clear boyish voice a little bit by singing in a mixture of real and false notes. The only thing that's a little shameful is the lyrics. After all, they are all lyrics from his boyhood, and now he sings with a sense of style.

The feeling of pretending to be young.

In order to sing the songs of that year, Junxiu Lin specially asked Kitagawa to borrow a batch of Johnny's boys. After all, as a Johnny's idol back then, most of the songs that Lin Junsu sang were followed by Johnny's Junior backup dancers. Although Lin Junxiu later moved to another country

After leaving Johnny & Associates, Lin Junxiu did not take away all the song copyrights but chose to share them with Johnny & Associates. After all, Johnny & Associates still has many music programs, and it is good to let the juniors sing from time to time.

a means of publicity.

Kitagawa is certainly grateful for Lin Junxiu's willingness to take Johnny's Jr. to attend the red and white show. Now NHK's restrictions on Johnny's Agency have not been completely relaxed, but the original two-group limit has been slightly relaxed to three.

There are only four groups. Resources are limited, but there are so many little Johnnys, so it would be good to have one more Lin Junxiu to help "nurse the kids".

Although Lin Junxiu decided to participate in Red and White on the spur of the moment, he still had to go to the last few rehearsals, especially to coordinate the stage moves with the group of little Johnnys. Speaking of which, these little Johnnys can be regarded as the last ones.

The quality of the first batch is good, but it is really difficult to describe it after that. Although Lin Junxiu does not like the strict seniority system in the Japanese entertainment industry, this does not mean that he has completely abandoned the so-called relationship between seniors and seniors.

You still have to respect the experienced and capable seniors in the circle. But in a few years, even seniors from Johnny's Agency such as SMAP will visit Johnny's rehearsal stage, and those Johnny's will still be able to grow up.

He didn't even say hello. Lin Junxiu glanced at it and found that he was basically a member of two Johnny's limited groups, Ya-Ya-yah and J.J.Express. These two limited groups can be regarded as Johnny's after KAT-TUN's debut.

Two limited groups that the agency focused on cultivating. If I remember correctly, Ya-Ya-yah also released a single.

However, it is a pity that neither of these two groups debuted. Instead, they selected a few top members and paired them with other Johnny's to form a group called Hey! Say! JUMP. Today's Johnny's

The young man was still polite. After saying hello to Lin Junxiu, he stood obediently in the rehearsal room. In fact, they skipped most of Lin Junxiu's songs, so the two sides mainly worked on their moves and formation changes.

The rehearsal went very smoothly. After all, Lin Junxiu was also an artist at Johnny's Agency in the early years, so some of the more senior Johnny's knew Lin Junxiu. Moreover, the legend of Lin Junxiu has been circulating in the agency, that is, Lin Junxiu

He is particularly generous to the younger generation. Just when everyone was guessing how generous Lin Junxiu was, the snacks and sodas sent by Lin Junxiu’s management team immediately captured the hearts of a group of teenagers. Lin Junxiu said that it was too simple. A group of young people

Don't kids just eat and drink? And when Lin Junxiu was rehearsing, other artists would come to visit from time to time. Lin Junxiu didn't debut very early, but he was a songwriter, writer, playwright, director, and producer.

Waiting for status.

Because Johnny's performance cannot exceed 9 p.m., Junxiu Lin's performance was scheduled in the first half. In fact, the ratings of the first half of the red and white show were relatively poor. After all, at this time, everyone would be busy eating out.

He didn't turn on the TV because he didn't go home. So most of the important guests appeared in the second half, which made NHK feel a little sorry to Lin Junxiu. However, Lin Junxiu said that this was really great, and he still sang after singing.

Being able to go home and stay up late with Hayashi Naomi and Nagasawa Masami.

I have to say that NHK still gave Lin Junxiu the greatest courtesy. You must know that except for Aunt Sachiko Kobayashi, NHK has never allowed anyone to play such a big scene in the NHK Concert Hall. It has to be said that Lin Junxiu left behind

Those million-dollar singles are still very popular in the Japanese pop music circle, and they actually triggered a chorus of chorus. After the performance, Lin Junxiu also gave a red envelope to the backup dancer Johnny. According to the regulations of the entertainment industry, as long as he is a senior

Artists can give New Year's red envelopes to younger artists, so Lin Junxiu did not break the rules. After celebrating the New Year with his family, Lin Junxiu once again appeared at Johnny's Office. This time he came to ask Kamenashi Kazuya for help.

Team 4 designed the performance stage.

Because Kitagawa loves American stage plays very much and admires Broadway very much, many of Johnny's idols have the ability to produce performance stages, and it is not unusual for them to even switch careers to be stage managers. Junxiu Lin likes Kameli very much.

Kazuya performed on the "1582" stage at KAT-TUN's 2009 concert. Among them, Kamenashi Kazuya's design of flying with an umbrella and flying on water was later "referenced" by many other singers; and he was holding a white silk book on the stage.

The flying dance in the venue is also a must-have. In addition to the stage special effects, the arrangement of this section is also very interesting. There are not only very popular European electronic dance music, but also the traditional Japanese shamisen, and even an adaptation of Zhu Xi's poem.

Haiku.

"You want to use Kameli-kun to direct AKB48's stage?" Kitagawa was a little shocked when he heard this request.

"Yes, I have seen several stages designed by Kameli-kun. They are very interesting, so I would like to invite him to be the stage manager." Lin Junxiu said, "Don't worry, I will extend the invitation to Kameli-kun in accordance with the rules of the industry.

of."

"Then this is really his luck." Kitagawa said with a smile, "I also want to thank Lin Sang for his support."

"Teacher Lin's company wants to invite me to be the stage manager?" Kamenashi Kazuya also looked in disbelief when he saw the news from his agent.

Johnny's idols are generally only responsible for their own team's performances and rarely involve other groups. They are not even involved with other groups in the company, let alone the idol stages of other companies. But Kamenashi Kazuya heard that it was Kitagawa

After receiving the approval, I came to Vernalossom Club with a feeling of trepidation. However, at this time, Lin Junxiu had already rushed to the United States again with the crew of "The Embalmer". After two months of public relations, it was time to gain some results.

Lin Junxiu left a draft of his plan to Kamenashi Kazuya through Vernalossom Club, and also left some of his requirements. Kamenashi Kazuya took this outline and went to see it under the arrangement of Vernalossom Club.

AKB48's stage. He said with some worry: "If we want to realize this outline, we may design things like acrobatics, magic, etc. I won't elaborate on the difficulty of this. Several links alone may be alive.

Do you also hope to realize the risk?"

"Please rest assured, Kameli-kun, we have also hired a Broadway performance company as a consultant this time, and we will make adjustments to some overly dangerous links and try to make the risks controllable. As for the difficulties, since we have chosen the idol path, then

We can only persevere." A staff member of Vernalossom Club said, "Everyone in AKB48 has this realization."
