800, I hope we can be together happily next year!!!
...
On the last day of Showa 59, as night falls, a year-end show not to be missed is about to be staged~
The Red and White Song Festival, where stars compete, and the Japan Record Awards, which competes with it, are both held on the same day. Many stars have to participate in these two important events at the same time, which leads to the famous rushing behavior~
On this night, the traffic police will build a green channel between the NHK performance hall and the TBS Arena so that celebrities rushing to the show do not need to jam in traffic...
Naoki Nagayama naturally entered the venue early, but Shuyou is not a co-organizer or organizer, and no artist can be selected to participate in the red and white showdown for the time being, so he can only get the votes of ordinary people in the entertainment industry.
It looks like four or five rows.
"Brother Naoki, have you been here before?"
Itou Jiayi was sitting next to Nagayama Naoki, looking around curiously. Itou Shuichi came with his whole family, it was not like Nagayama Naoki was just alone...
Although I wanted to give Tsuruko a ticket, my sister has already gone back to Shizuoka~
"I've been here..." Nagayama Naoki said, "After all, he is from the entertainment industry~"
"It's really enviable..." The little girl looked at the familiar face of the person in front of her, "Being able to see a star so close..."
"Jiayi-chan... Actually, as your father is a director, you can meet any star you want..."
Itou Shuichi has won the Academy Award for Best Director. Such an achievement will be looked down upon by almost every artist who is interested in movies. Even singers, musicians, etc. will look at him differently.
"...Him?" Yi Tang Jiayi glanced at Yi Tang Shuichi who was sitting with her mother, showing a look of disbelief, "My father is as ordinary (bad) as a middle-aged man.
?"
"...."
Itou Xiuyi obviously heard this sentence, as if a thunderbolt hit his head, and his heart seemed to be broken...
Hey, maybe in the eyes of all his beloved children, his father is just an ordinary person.
Slowly, the performance hall was filled with people, and it was completely dark when viewed from the stage... At a certain time, a burst of music sounded, and the lights in the entire performance hall dimmed, leaving only the main character.
The stage lights are bright.
The Red and White Song Festival officially begins!
"Mina-san, the Showa 59 Red and White Song Contest is about to begin. Let us welcome Suzuki Kenji, the host of the white group, and Mitsuko Mori, the host of the red group..."
Chief host Sheng Yonghui walked up to the front stage and introduced the beginning of the red and white song show. Then as part of the program performance, the relationship between the host and the guests of the red and white group will be complementary to each other.
Then after the host's introduction, the first group's duel began immediately...
"Today, the first person from the red group to appear is Yu Hayami, the idol of Temptation, singing the song "Temptation of Light"!"
Mitsuko Mori announced next to Hanamichi, and the host of the white group, Kenji Suzuki, who was not to be outdone, also said the same,
"The first one from our white group is the Shibu Persimmon Team!!! The song they sang is "アッパレ!フジヤマ"!"
Amid the applause and cheers of the audience, the docking of the first group officially began!
Nagayama Naoki also applauded while watching the performance duel on the stage. Hayami Yu's singing was really good. The young and beautiful girl twisted her body and her sweet voice sounded good no matter what she sang...
On the other side, the Sebu Persimmon Team, three thin, dark men wearing very eye-catching singing uniforms, exposed a large area of their arms and long legs... What the hell is so good about this!
But why are there still a group of fans cheering underneath?
He covered his forehead with his hand and casually covered the eyes of Itou Jiayi next to him: "Jiai-chan, don't look at this kind of exhibitionist, you will get needle eyes!"
The little girl shook her head and hid, not because she wanted to watch the performance on the stage, but rather because she was playing with Naoki Nagayama.
Itou Shuichi stared at him with dead eyes: "Naoki-san, what are you doing..."
"I'm saving Jiayi-chan's aesthetics! And her young heart!"
Nagayama Naoki said righteously. To be honest, he very much doubted whether those male idol groups of Johnny's were created by John Genesis according to his own preferences...the more flesh exposed during performances, the better.
.....
"...take your hands off me!"
Yitang Jiayi quit and looked at his father with a frown: "Doudou Sang, you are so annoying!"
"!"
Itou Shuichi was struck on the head by lightning again... His whole person showed his despair...
Fortunately, the performance only lasted for two or three minutes at most, and Naoki Nagayama put down his arms after the Shibu-Kaki team came off the field.
Next up in the red group is still the popular idol, Emi Hori, who sang "Tokyo Suger Town", while in the white group was Tate Nana, who sang the famous song "压ないで (please don't cry)"...
..
One by one, the idols began to take turns to compete. The ones in front were all the new and popular idols and popular niche students~
There is a big difference between watching live and watching on TV, that is, you can personally see the performers swallowing nervously, experience the flash of colorful radiant lights, and hear the staff on the stage in the dark for more than ten seconds.
The urgent sound of quickly changing props, and you can also observe the way the camera guy in the audience moves the camera quickly...
The hosts didn't have many opportunities to perform. The program's flow was very detailed and there was no room for them to express themselves.
Nagayama Naoki listened to familiar songs performed on the field, and then changed to another performance in the colorful cutscene.
Akina came on stage in the seventh session, singing the popular song of the year - "Ten Commandments".
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The stunning sapphire blue wedding dress, her hair tied on her head, revealing her slender neck and shoulders, and her exquisite and perfect facial features look like they came from a magazine cover
Just like walking down.
"Ah, it's Akina-chan!" Itou Kayi had met Nakamori Akina at Yamazakura-in, and now she was very excited when she saw it, "It's so beautiful!"
"Yes, this singing outfit is very suitable!"
Naoki Nagayama was also very happy when he heard someone praising his girlfriend.
The familiar melody sounded, and Nakamori Akina began to dance the iconic "Ten Commandments" dance on tiptoes. The song that combined charm and royal sister made the whole audience chant along with the rhythm. A group of people competed with her.
There’s nothing I can’t compare to Toshihiko Tahara!
During the interview after the performance, Mitsuko Mori, the host of the red team, asked:
"Akina-chan, are you happy today?"
"Hi, I'm very happy to perform with you all..." Akina Nakamori said with a smile.
"Today is the last day, facing the camera, what do you want to say to the person you love most?" Mitsuko Mori continued.
"Well... I hope we can be together happily next year too!!"
Akina Nakamori said into the microphone, but her eyes did not look at the camera, but instead looked towards somewhere in the performance hall...
"Oh~~~"
The crowd below burst into cheers, and everyone who saw it thought that Akina Nakamori was talking to them.
The viewers in front of the TV naturally thought that Akina Nakamori was talking about "the person she loves most" in a broad sense. She must be talking to those fans...because fans are the people Akina Nakamori loves most!
And only some people who know who is sitting in the direction of Akina's eyes know that Nakamori Akina is actually shouting to someone!!!
Some people who knew the inside story were filled with bitterness...
(At this time, in the house in Qinglai City, Chieko Nakamori took a vicious bite of the wagashi... She knew that what Akina just said was not meant for her!!! Alas... her daughter is older, and she has already
Not Mingjiang’s favorite person anymore...)
.......
After performing on stage, Akina Nakamori hurriedly ran toward the car from the special passage under the guidance of her manager, without even changing into her singing uniform.
"How long does it take to get to the Record Awards?" Akina Nakamori asked Akiyuki Fusanoori who was driving.
"It's expected to take half an hour..." Akikofusa said.
"Can you make it in time for the final chorus?"
Nakamori Akina quickly changed into a coat. One of the characteristics of singing clothes is that they are very easy to change. Many places are just fixed with pins and have inner linings.
"Including the performance, I might be very nervous..." Akikobo said, "Akina will definitely win the Most Popular Star Award. This does not require singing, but the gold medal for "Snow Flower" will definitely be no problem, and she will definitely go up and sing.
of...."
"There are also planning awards and composition awards, and I might be able to win them... so I might not be able to catch up."
"Snow Flower" was sung during the first snowfall at the end of last year, and started to be sung along with the movie. However, this album was only released after the New Year, so it can still participate in this year's selection.
Although Kenyin wants to promote Nakamori Akina to the Record Awards, her qualifications are still not enough. The Record Awards like ballads for a long time.
"Eh... That's really anxious." Nakamori Akina sighed, and then thought of something again, her face was a little excited, "If it's the composition award, will Naoki-san also come to accept the award?"
"Um...probably not..." Akikofusa sighed, "Naoki-san has composed many songs, but currently all music-related awards...are for albums
Collected by the company on behalf of the company."
Nakamori Akina recalled: "It seems that I really didn't see Naoki-san accepting the award..."
"Yeah, I heard that the Japan Composers Association wanted to find him many times, but every time he refused to attend, saying that the copyright had been sold... In the end, it was either awarded to the record company or to
Shuyou Group..."
Akikofusa pouted, Naoki Nagayama didn't care about the grand prize that others dreamed of, and rumors spread throughout the music industry that Naoki Nagayama was arrogant, withdrawn, and looked down on his peers.
"..."
Akina Nakamori stopped talking, because Naoki-san really doesn't like to communicate with colleagues, and the same goes for the literary circle. It seems that the only ones he cares about most are movies and...real estate?
If Nagayama Naoki were here, he would definitely be speechless... He doesn't communicate with the music industry because he doesn't know much about music himself. Arranging and writing songs rely more on memories, and he interacts with professionals.
It is easy to reveal the secret together.
Movies are different. Who hasn’t watched hundreds of short movies?
"Then when we go back, we should be able to talk to Naoki-san for a while." Akina Nakamori still wanted to stay with Naoki Nagayama for a while before leaving.
Nakamori Akina is going to Hawaii for a vacation with her family this New Year. This has been planned for a long time. The flight is scheduled for midnight, so she happens to sleep on the plane.
Everyone in the Nakamori family will go...
This is also a reward from the office and a compensation for letting Akina and her family spend less time together and more time away from each other throughout the year~
"Hey, after it's over, I'll take Akina to the airport!"
Akikofusa said, feeling relieved at the same time. After sending Akina to the airport, he could take a good vacation for a while!
.......
——The dividing line between Showa 59 and Showa 60——
.......
When Naoki Nagayama opened his eyes again, his ears seemed to still be recalling the one hundred and eight bells at night, and the fireworks sparkling in the night seemed to still remain in his mind.
I shook my head and got all this out of my head. After I went to the bathroom to wash myself, I finally woke up!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Today is the first day of the New Year!
Looking back at the bedroom, Akina was not in the room...
After the performance of "Red and White Song Gala" last night, Akina rushed to the Japan Record Awards and won the Most Popular Star Award. Then she hurried back to the NHK Performance Hall to participate in the final chorus. She was really busy.
After the final bell ringing, the manager drove Akina back to Yamasakura-in. After picking up some things, the manager hurriedly sent her to the airport...
Touching his cheek, Naoki Nagayama seemed to still be able to feel the softness of Akina's kiss on his cheek, and his words when they parted were still in his ears:
"Naoki-san, I have to leave first!"
“Go to Hawaii and have a good rest~”
"Naoki-san, don't miss me too much~"
"..."
However, the two of them didn't feel sad at all. After all, they had to go back to their respective homes to celebrate the New Year.
"Yutaro! Happy New Year!"
Naoki Nagayama stroked the dog's head, then opened the glass partition and walked into the courtyard.
A cold wind blows, which refreshes Nagayama Naoki~
The weather outside is still sunny, but the temperature is still hovering around freezing...
In the corner of the courtyard wall, there is still unmelted snow, which complements the brown branches of the cherry trees and the withered grass under the trees. The moss on the rockeries has also turned withered yellow, and the gravel at the foot of the mountain is spread ruggedly.
, the dry landscape in the middle looks more and more Zen-like.
"Muai..." Nagayama Naoki scratched his cheek, "It's inexplicably inappropriate for the New Year!"
He turned around and found red Chinese knots for decoration from the living room, and then hung a lot of them on the cherry blossom tree. He also moved the cold-resistant evergreen plants to the rockery, and also hung some small orange-red lanterns on the eaves.
The yard immediately became festive.
All I need to do is post some Spring Festival couplets and hang some blessing characters~
"Haha, that's it!"
Nagayama Naoki patted the dog that had been spinning around his legs, and at the same time, he hugged Nyaotarou who was eager to try the red lantern.
"Yutaro, Nyaotaro, let's get ready to go back to Shizuoka for the New Year!"
"Woof woof!" "Meow?"
"Ah, you two are very happy too...it's been a long time since you've been back! It's been a long time since you've seen your mother and Tsuruko, right?"
Naoki Nagayama thought wishfully that the two furry children also missed their loved ones. He didn't realize that after hearing Tsuruko's keywords, both Silly Dog and Daju became quiet...
After packing two pieces of clothes, opening the garage, taking the dog and the orange cat with him, Naoki Nagayama started heading towards Shizuoka Prefecture...
"Showa 60..."
Thinking of the signing of the Plaza Accord...
I thought Akina would win the Record Award...
Thinking of Gorbachev coming to power which led to the collapse of the Soviet Union...
Thinking of the announcement of the Hong Kong Return Bill...
Finally, I thought about myself... It has been more than four years since I came to Showa...
