Chapter 663 Red and White New Era

The much-anticipated 61st Red and White Song Contest host lineup will be officially announced on November 11rd at 3:10 am!

As the general host, Abe Sher, the head host of NHK, is still in charge.

The host of the red group, not surprisingly, is Nao Matsushita, who became popular because of her starring role in the morning drama "Weird Wife".

As for the host of the white group, it was beyond everyone's expectations. It was the national band THE SUN under Sony Music!

This astonishing decision of NHK made the whole of Japan, at this time of the end of the year, completely boil!
Needless to say, the host of the red group is not unexpected.

but!

The candidates for the white group made the public dumbfounded and even exclaimed!

"JJJ!" (Ama fans know this stalk!)

It's not Masahiro Nakai, who is a familiar face, or Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who is very popular, but THE SUN? !
The major media who didn't expect NHK to play like this were also dumbfounded.

You know, since the establishment of Hongbai, there has been no such precedent!
And the election of THE SUN band has directly created a record for Hongbai in more than 60 years: the first group host in history!

As for why it will be used this year, the three-member band group, as the host of the Red and White Song Club, and the chief producer of the Red and White Song Club, Keisuke Inoue, explained this as follows:

"THE SUN is a very united group. It has been 6 years since its establishment. Although the three members have their own jobs in various fields, when they are together, they feel like a family. The constant strong friendship is very consistent with the theme of this year's "connecting you and me with singing" of the Red and White Song Festival."

"Moreover, this year's Red and White Song Festival is a new milestone after the 60th session. In terms of hosts, we also hope to be innovative. A band group will serve as the host, which will bring more to the show. We are also very much looking forward to what changes will be made. I hope everyone will like it.”

Of course, the above are official statements.

It is no news that red and white hosts seek innovation.

It is precisely because of the consideration of the younger red and white that finally prompted NHK to choose between THE SUN and Arashi, the younger THE SUN!

Lan and THE SUN are extremely popular among young people.

Lan Sheng has a large number of members, high exposure, often releases albums, and frequently appears in dramas;
As for THE SUN, it has a high status, higher quality and popularity of songs, stronger fan cohesion, and kills both men and women.

Most importantly, THE SUN also has a BUG-like Kiyoshi Sakamoto!
One person can be a group, music, acting, directing, production, all-round talents who can do everything!
How to fight this? !

Lan: It's not that we are too scumbags, but the enemy is too strong!

In any case, as THE SUN took over the microphone from Masahiro Nakai and became the new Red and White host, it also ushered in a new era for the Red and White Song Club.

An era called "THE SUN".

. . . . . .

On November 11th, with the eyes of the public looking forward to it, the list of singers who will appear in the 24st Red and White Song Concert will be officially announced!

Red and white teams, a total of 44 groups of singers duel.

Among them, the opening singer of the red group is Aiko, while the opening singer of the white group is Arashi.

For the first time, AAA, Nishino Kana, Uemura Hana and others participated in the red and white song meeting.

However, in the list of singers, there are no Korean groups such as Big Bang, Kara, and Girls' Generation reported by Japanese and Korean media earlier.

According to the Japanese newspaper "Sport Japan" on the 21st after the "Kara Red and White vs. BigBang" news, major Japanese newspapers have quoted this headline, and even South Korea's "Chosun Ilbo" and "Central Daily" have also quoted this. information.

In addition, this year, Hallyu has swept across Asia, and Hallyu groups such as Big Bang, Kara, and Girls' Generation have also been very active in Japan recently. Therefore, people have no doubts about the authenticity of the report.

However, judging from the list, this time the Hallyu singer group was wiped out, which surprised the public.

Different from the Korean wave meeting the "cold current", Sony Music, led by THE SUN, is all smiles.

This year's Red and White Song Concert, Sony Music can be said to be very beautiful!
The number of singers who appeared on stage surpassed the previous record and reached as many as four groups!

In addition to the "Japan's No. 20 Band" THE SUN, which plays every year, there is also the "Girl Leader" who has begun to gain popularity among girls, the debut of Nishino Kana; and the return of the national band, Rainbow Band, which is about to celebrate its [-]th anniversary , if you count the national male god Masaharu Fukuyama on the live connection, this makes Sony Music the big winner of the Red and White Song Festival!
THE SUN was selected as the host of the white group of this year's Red and White Song Festival, becoming the first host of the red and white group in history.

Based on this, the performance of the "Sony Legion" led by THE SUN is also one of the biggest highlights of this year's Red and White Song Festival.

Once the lineup of red and white singers is released, it means that there is less than a month left in 2010.

But in the last month of 2010, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was still very busy.

Due to the shelving of the "Code M" film project, he has to re-select a film as the second film of "SMA Film Production"!
Moreover, because he had to take into account the debut plan of Nogizaka next year, in the end, after careful consideration, he chose a youth movie that won numerous awards and caused social topics.

. . .

"What?! Say it again?!"

"You heard what I said..."

"You mean, next year we won't be afraid of "Code Name M", but start filming "I Heard Kirishima is Retiring"?!"

With Uncle Ishida's exclamation, the answer was ready to come out.

That's right, Kiyoshi Sakamoto chose "I heard that Kirishima is going to retire", a youth film that has been regarded as a classic by later generations, as his second directed work, and it is also the second film exclusively produced by SMA!

As early as the beginning of this year, Kiyoshi Sakamoto asked his script team to buy the film adaptation rights of "I Heard Kirishima is Retiring" from the original author Ryo Asai.

Sakamoto Kiyomoto wants to wait until after Nogizaka's debut before shooting this movie. By the way, he can bring Mai Shiraishi and Nishino Nanase, two core members who have the potential to take the actor's route.

Who knows, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and the postponement of "Code M" forced Kiyoshi Sakamoto to start filming "I heard that Kirishima is going to retire" ahead of schedule.

However, this is also good.

In this way, the film and Nogizaka can be promoted at the same time to achieve a complementary effect.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's mind, like Sherlock Holmes, started running at high speed for a moment.

If the members of Nogizaka participate in a movie, what impact will it have on Nogizaka who has not yet debuted?
If Nogizaka, who has just debuted, is asked to sing the theme song of the movie "I Heard Kirishima is Retiring", what kind of impact will it have?
Thinking of these possibilities, Kiyoshi Sakamoto couldn't help but smile.

"Let me write it, a new Nogizaka!"

　The latest update is a bit irregular, but I hope everyone can continue to vote for this book!

　　PS: Friends who like Naituan, please pay attention, Naituan girls and sisters, they will appear soon!
