Chapter 330. Probably not (4000 words)(1/2)
Two NHK staff members who came to invite Higashinoji to participate in the Red and White Song battle were named Kotakihiko and the other was named Kenaki Iki.
Xiao Yukino is the producer of this issue of the Red and White Songs, and Kenzhao Iki is by his side.
The reason they found Higashinoji this time was actually very simple.
Because since Higashinoji came into contact with music, "Lemon", "Although There's nothing in our hands" and "Don't Give Up" are all popular songs of the year.
Among them, "Lemon" has been at the top of the credit list since the serialization of "Unnatural Death" and has been on the top of the credit list. Now it is about to reach the annual credit list. Unexpectedly, "Lemon" will definitely win the annual credit list and will be highly popular among young people.
The same situation in "Although There Is Not a Thing in Our Hands" is similar to "Don't Give Up".
Especially in the previous life of Sakai Izumizu, "Don't Give Up" even when he was moved to this world by Higashinoji, Japan is almost as popular as in his previous life.
Originally, this song "Don't Give Up" was a love song, but under the influence of some media, it gradually became the same as the direction of the previous life, and became the "song that best represents the ten years lost in Japan" - the same as the previous life.
Moreover, the sales of the digital version of "Don't Give Up" are also particularly terrifying. This year, it is ranked 5th in the annual credibility O list...
Higashinoji thinks the main reason is that "Don't Give Up" is too behind "Lemon" and "Although There's nothing in our hands", and it is the only physical album released by Higashinoji as a bonus track, so it did not win the first place title.
This made Xiao Yuyan sigh inexplicably.
The Higashinoji in front of him is indeed not simple. He not only has good comics, but also has talent in music, and also has a good appearance and looks very good...
To sum up, it is natural for NHK Red and White Song Association to invite Higashinoji to participate.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yukino said again: "Teacher Higashino, our NHK's red and white song battle has been around for 59 years since it was broadcast, and has always been a popular program in the country. As long as you are willing to appear, our program team will definitely arrange a good position for you to play."
The meaning in this statement is very simple, it is nothing more than giving the best position of the finale of the White Group to Higashinoji.
The so-called "big finale" is actually among all the singers who appear, the last group of singers in the red group (female) and the white group (male) is called the finale.
Among them, the red group who appeared earlier was the finale, while the white group who appeared last was the finale, which often attracted much attention.
And the other party’s red and white songs that the other party said are a popular national program... This is actually not wrong.
As far as Higashinoji knows, the peak ratings of the Red and White Songs battle once reached 81%. After all, it is a program that is equivalent to the Spring Festival Gala once a year, so it must have this card.
But there are peaks and troughs. As far as Higashinoji knows, the more he goes, the ratings of the Red and White Songs battle will decline year by year, falling to 35% at one point... This is actually similar to the Celestial Spring Festival Gala.
But to be honest, half of the reason why the ratings of the Red and White Songs in the Combination War will fall is because of the NHK official.
Most of the causes were that during the 57th Red and White Song battle in 2006, I don’t know which god in NHK came up with the idea, but I actually thought of a nude dance music program.
It is really something that should be missed, everything that should not be missed is missed, and the white rabbits are jumping around.
Even the host and the audience in charge of the host were stunned - I had never seen such a scene in my life.
You should know that as the NHK card, the Red and White Songs are second only to the baseball game broadcast, and as such a program that audiences across the country are watching, the nude dance program that suddenly jumped out directly triggered the NHK TV report call.
An angry Japanese friend asked the NHK person in charge what impact it would have on the child if he saw it.
This incident was a big deal at that time, and the host in charge of the Hong and White Songs show directly apologized to the audience across the country.
Because of this incident, the battle between Hong and Bai Song began to decline directly.
It can only be said that the world is so big and unique.
However, Higashinoji didn't care about such a mess. After all, this year was only 2004, and even if there was such a thing, it had little to do with him.
What he cared about was whether he should agree to Xiao Yuyanto as a red and white song fight.
Because the other party's conditions are very good, giving him a good position in such a national program is enough to show how important NHK attaches to him.
You should know that NHK TV is the oldest TV station in Japan. To be honest, the other four Japanese private TV stations have absolutely no objection.
But...
Higashinoji couldn't help but ponder, but decided to refuse.
He has been addicted to drawing comics and various work for half a year this year, and has left Koume Ryoka and Higashino Chihaya aside for no reason.
At least in the aspect of the New Year in Japan, Higashinoji still wants to spend it with his family.
As for fame... well, to be honest, Higashinoji is not the kind of person who is unmoved by fame and fortune, but when I think of Higashino Chihaki and the others... Higashinoji finally thought it would be better to give up.
"Mr. Xiaoyu, thank you very much for your invitation. Similarly, I am very interested in this battle between Hong and Baige, but sorry, I still have my own things to do this year."
Higashinoji apologized softly.
Well...
When Xiao Tatsuhito heard Higashinoji's words, his first reaction was stunned.
He never thought Higashinoji would reject their invitation.

After all, the Red and White Songs battle is a big show that has attracted the attention of the Japanese people, and their program team also intends to leave the finale for Higashinoji to create the program effect.
As a result, Higashinoji refused?
The finale of the White Group...that is the most eye-catching position. As long as Higashinoji performs well, his fame will be higher.
This shocking fact made him unable to react at once.
However, as a famous NHK producer, he quickly came back to his senses and smiled: "About the invitation, please consider it carefully... We really sincerely hope that Teacher Tono can join us in this year's Red and White Song battle."
Xiao Yuhiko intentionally continued to persuade him, but Higashinoji did not hesitate. He smiled and started to play Tai Chi with him, saying all kinds of suggestions.
This made Xiao Yuyan a little confused about how to start.
Higashinoji is obviously a young man, but he can't speak well of his eloquence. He can also express his willingness to refuse while taking into account his face...
Higashinoji didn't know what Xiao Tatsuhito thought. If he knew, he would probably just smile - isn't this nonsense? The history of polite words in the Celestial Dynasty has a long history, and even the aunt gave children New Year's money, adults could push them for a long time when they saw them... This has been cultivated since childhood, and Japanese friends are definitely not as good as him in this regard.
Just when Xiao Yukino was in a stalemate, Iki Kenzhao, the new assistant who was Xiao Yukino next to him, suddenly spoke.
"Teacher Higashino, we can actually provide tickets to the studio... If you don't mind, you can actually invite your family to watch the Hongbai Song and the Joint Battle Show on site."
In the middle of his words, Xiao Yuyanren was called to stop.
He couldn't help but glared at the other party, feeling that the newcomer is simply causing trouble.
He, Xiao Tamahito, offered such generous conditions, but even Higashinoji did not agree. Will it be useful to give him a few tickets to the studio?
If Shima Higashino was willing to participate in this red and white song battle, let alone a few studio tickets, he would have helped Shima Higashino get back even dozens of them.
After all, as an internal NHK staff and one of the plans for this Red and White Song battle, the tickets at the studio were really not worth anything - in previous years, this thing was either distributed to employees and their families to come to see it, or it was divided into some of the singers participating in the performance.
But the problem is... it is not realistic to make Higashinoji agree to this kind of thing that is not very valuable at all.
Even Kenzhang Iki felt rude when he said this.
Therefore, while Xiaotahiko blocked Kenzaki Iki's mouth, he turned to look at Higashinoji and wanted to apologize to him.
But before he could say the words of apologies, his expression became a little strange.
What's going on...?
Looking at Higashinoji's face... Why do you seem to be interested?
Looking at Higashinoji's expression that seemed a little moved, Xiaotahiko couldn't help but open his mouth and greeted him: "Teacher Higashino?"
"Ah..." Higashinoji seemed to have come to his senses by his greeting: "What's wrong? Mr. Xiaoyu?"
Well...
Xiao Tatsuhito was a little suspicious, and then said in a silence: "Teacher Higashino... do we need to arrange it? Tickets to the studio?"
He regretted it just because he said it.
I was also led by the newcomer Ikiki Kenzhang, so why did he say such unsense words?
Compared to a few studio tickets, it is better to think about how to improve Higashinoji's treatment.
Just as he was thinking like this...
"Can I think about it a little?"
Higashinoji suddenly spoke.
"Hey..." Xiao Yuyanren opened her mouth subconsciously, and her eyes became a little strange.
Higashinoji...Is this true?
As a TV station staff, he naturally felt that Higashinoji was already a little moved.
But...this shouldn't be.
Even the finale did not impress Higashinoji, but a few studio tickets impressed Higashinoji?
Is this just unscientific?
Xiao Tatsuhito couldn't understand Higashino's thoughts at all, but he knew that he couldn't hesitate at this time, so he immediately hit the snake and put it on the stick: "I understand, Higashino, I look forward to your good news."
At the same time, he did not forget to leave enough tickets to Higashinoji after he went back, and they all had to be some good places.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tatsuhito pulled Kenzhao Iki on the side and stood up, bowed half a bow to Higashinoji before turning around and leaving.
But just as soon as he left the Higashino family, Otaki Hikaru pulled Kenzaki Iki over and criticized him.
The main thing is to deal with him suddenly speaking, which caused Xiao Yuyan to not adjust his rhythm.
This scattered scolding made Ikiki Kenzhang lower his head and feel wronged... Didn't he rely on his own spiritual gate to move Higashiji? Why did he still scold himself?
