Reborn Japan for entertainment

Chapter 634 Beyond THE SUN?

Speaking of it, it is not unreasonable for SMAP to be called the "National Tiantuan".

The five members have lively and distinctive personalities. In addition to their singing career, they are also involved in variety show hosting, TV dramas, stage, radio and other performances, and are active in various fields.

Among them, the most outstanding one is of course one of the core "great gods", Takuya Kimura.

Takuya Kimura can serve as the lead singer of SMAP and lead the group forward, and he can also use his superb acting skills to bring more attention to SMAP. . .

As for the other core, Nakai Masahiro, is known as the MC who knows how to cook the best in the idol world!

Better than he can host, not better than him singing;
Singing better than him is no better than hosting;
Even if it is better than him in singing and hosting, it is no better than him in cooking. . .

It can be said that he is also one of the very versatile entertainers in the entertainment industry.

He is also the No.1 host in the entire circle who is not a comedian!
After all, he is a talented host who has served as a red and white host since he was 25 years old, and his emotional intelligence and eloquence are all top-notch. . .

However, there is only one Masahiro Nakai of SMAP!
It is very difficult to find another middle house.

That's why, when Mary Kitagawa asked everyone for their opinions, they didn't immediately think of someone, but fell into thinking.

However, the silence didn't last long. After about a few minutes, someone finally broke the eerie silence.

"In terms of qualifications, the replacement candidates should be selected from the three combinations of "TOKIO", "V6", and "KinKi Kids"."

The one who spoke was still Johnny's third person, Baiba Setjie.

In addition to being the director of the Publicity Department, Shirami Sejie has another identity, that is, the manager in charge of KinKi Kids.

Of course, he didn't say the names of these three groups for the sake of his KinKi Kids.

In the Japanese entertainment industry, where the relationship between seniors and seniors is extremely important, even if the other party debuted a day earlier than you, even if you are decades older than him, you should respectfully call him "Senior".

Therefore, from the perspective of seniority, the three combinations proposed by Shirami Sete are the most qualified to become a strong candidate for Nakai Masahiro's successor.

The three combinations "TOKIO", "V6" and "KinKi Kids" are the first three combinations among Johnny's, except for the "Youth Team" and SMAP that exist in name only.

"TOKIO" debuted in 1994.

"V6" debuted in 1995.

"KinKi Kids" debuted in 1997.

Each group has debuted for more than ten years. Basically, from the perspective of qualifications, they are fully qualified for the important task of red and white hosting.

However, this answer made Mr. Kitagawa, who was sitting in the upper seat, frown.

The sharp-eyed Mary Kitagawa also noticed the change in her younger brother's expression, and she knew it.

It seems that my younger brother is not very optimistic about whether these three people can become the red and white hosts. . .

After Baiba Setjie finished speaking, she immediately asked, "Where are the others? Do you have any other opinions?"

All the people present were high-level executives who could talk to Johnny.

However, at this time, each of them seemed to have become dumb, unable to speak anything. . .

In the end, I was still afraid that the opinions I expressed would not suit Mary Kitagawa's wishes.

Johnny Kitagawa was founded by Johnny Kitagawa and Mary Kitagawa. Although over the years, it has gradually changed from an early family business to a board of directors company.

However, after all, the two sisters and brothers Kitagawa have been in charge of Johnny's for many years, and they have accumulated power for a long time, and on major issues, the old man Kitagawa and the old lady basically decide together.

Therefore, although the directors under him have real power, they can still express their opinions in front of the two big bosses.

However, in the subconscious, it is still somewhat cowardly. . .

What's more, among the people present, there is no manager of SMAP, the boss of the Iijima faction, one of the two major factions of Johnny's, Santomo Iijima.

Naturally, the meeting directly turned into a speech of the Fujishima faction. . .

Seeing that everyone didn't answer, they just lowered their heads and pretended to be thinking. The old lady who was a bit grumpy also directly called the roll.

"Jingzi, tell me."

Fujishima Keiko, who was named, was not stage-frightened, and spoke directly.

"I think the three combinations of TOKIO, V6, and KinKi Kids are not suitable."

As soon as these words came out, all eyes in the meeting room were focused on her.

"I'm sorry, Director Baibo."

"It's okay, Miss Jingzi doesn't need to worry about it." Bai Bo Sejie smiled and waved his hands lightly, indicating that he had nothing to do with it.

The old lady was very curious about what her daughter said.

"Oh, what do you say?"

The mother's encouraging eyes made Keiko Fujishima more confident, "I think qualifications are important, but hosting ability and influence are also very important."

"Although the three groups TOKIO, V6, and KinKi Kids all have titled shows, and the ratings are also very good. However, in recent years, their influence has gradually declined."

"Especially among young people in their 10s and 20s, the popularity of the three groups is still a bit lacking."

"Moreover, according to NHK's thinking, since it wants to attract more young people to watch the Red and White Song Concert, it will definitely give priority to some people who are very popular and influential among young people to serve as hosts .”

"What's more, we don't have to choose one of them. Wouldn't it be better for all members of the group to host together?!"

"Group host?"

This novel suggestion made everyone's eyes shine!
Judging from Fujishima Keiko's confident expression and her well-organized speech, she should have done some homework on this issue a long time ago, which is why she is so confident.

At this time, Mr. Kitagawa, who was sitting in the upper seat, kept his head down and said nothing, suddenly asked.

"Then, who do you think is more suitable?"

As if waiting for Kitagawa to ask this question, in less than a second, Keiko Fujishima immediately gave her answer.

"Lan!"

"Tell me why."

"As we all know, thanks to the huge response of "Boys Over Flowers", Lan's rising momentum has been very rapid since last year."

"Especially in the past two years, Lan's influence among young people has doubled."

"From the skyrocketing sales of singles, No. 2 on the annual singles chart for two consecutive years (the number one belongs to THE SUN), and the successful concert held in the country, we can know that now is Arashi's era!"

"If we can push behind them at this time, with the help of Hongbai's huge influence, I don't think it is impossible to surpass THE SUN and become the next national group!"

"Beyond THE SUN...?"
