Chapter 339 It feels great to be called by the real master when eating melons
Of course, while preparing, press releases as previews are always indispensable.
The limited band OKAY, composed by Ye Showa, Okuda Minsheng and Kurachi Yoichi, will start a nationwide tour in September. While confirming this plan, it will be made public in advance through newspapers and music magazines.
The title of this tour is "The Trip of the Guitar Three Samurai". Although it is a bit old-fashioned, it is quite in line with the current configuration.
Although the alternative name of the Three Samurai that Kurachi Yoichi thought of did not become the name of the band, it became the title of the tour, which was quite happy for him.
As for Ye Zhao, his role... was to contribute the word "travel" later.
The original tour title was just like the bare "Guitar Three Samurai", but the executive producer felt that something was missing, so Ye Zhao suggested adding the word "travel", because in his opinion, this tour was like doing a trip.
Although his naming was ruthlessly disliked when deciding on the band's name, the suggestion he made this time received unanimous praise, so the title of the tour decided to be "The Trip of the Guitar Three Samurai".
The tour news was announced on May 31st. As a relatively common information news, the tour sessions and specific information were still in a "subsequent disclosure", so it did not bring much topic. At most, it was just to inform the audience who were interested in this matter.
On this day, all the front pages of the entertainment version of all newspapers published the same news, that is: Sen Qixing of SMAP, ended his contract with Johnnys today, officially withdrew from SMAP and Johnnys.
...It's really big news.
Speaking of the SMAP group, eliminating the personnel changes before the official debut, the only shock in the entire team career was that in this year, the player Sen Qixing announced his withdrawal from the group and quit the firm and changed his job to become a professional racer.
In fact, if we talk about it, this member change is actually at a somewhat subtle opportunity.
SMAP's debut can be said to be quite miserable. The records that idols originally had settled in were sold in a mess, and there was no good job on the TV station, so they had to put down their figure and become alternative idols. Fortunately, they really made a world. Not only that, they also opened up a new idol era.
Now in 1996, after the bad debut period and difficult rise period, the group has reached a very popular stage, but it is still a last breath to become a national group.
But in contrast, Takuya Kimura in the group is far ahead and becomes the idol of the dream lover of the vast majority of girls and housewives. When the TV series "Long Holiday" was broadcast and caused a phenomenon-level topic, there are also many people who only know Takuya Kimura but not SMAP.
The shelf life of idols is limited, at least this is the case at this time. When it is about to reach its peak, some members announce their withdrawal, which is often a sign of the group disbandment or the event is over.
Especially among the members of this group, there is a person with a unique popularity.
As early as when Mori Nakanosuke and Captain Nakazuki Masahiro held a press conference together, the newspapers and media began to think about the disbandment of SMAP and Takuya Kimura's solo work.
If Johnnys hadn’t had a strong control over the media, these small essays would have been not a mystery, but would have been flying all over the sky.
"It's amazing... SMAP will become very hard in the future." Takahashi Ryuki, who gave the newspaper to Ye Zhao, also said in an extremely emotional tone.
"Yes," Uemura Yuki, who was driving, also interjected. "I originally thought that SMAP could reach the top in one go, but Morisan actually announced that he had withdrawn from the team at this moment."
Ye Zhao, who was watching the report, replied casually: "Thank you for a while, but if you pass this stage, you will definitely become a top-level combination."
"Why can you hear the meaning of 'retreating the team' from Ye Zhaosang's tone?" Yuki Uemura, who had been following him for a longer time, immediately reacted.
"Anyway, Sensang's dream is a motorcycle racer, so it's not good to withdraw from the team to realize his dream." Ye Zhao's tone was very relaxed.
"However," Takahashi Ryu also interrupted, "Since Dream is a racer, why do you have to be an idol at the beginning?"
"People's ideas always change in real time." The answer was Yuki Uemura, "Maybe when I joined SMAP, I wanted to be an idol."
"That's right, after a goal is achieved, it is normal to consider a new goal." Ye Zhao finished speaking and continued to answer the question that Yuki Uemura just now. "At the stage they are in, as long as they go up to another level, it will bring more benefits than they are now. I think, as long as the members do not intend to disband, the firm will definitely hope to let them continue."
No matter how popular Kimura Takuya is, he can only be Kimura Takuya if he goes solo, but staying in the group is Kimura Takuya and SMAP, which will not only drive the fame of the group, but also bring double benefits.
This sign that will soon shine after being operated for so long. If Ye Zhao is the person in charge of Jennis, unless the members are distracted and ready to go back to their own houses, they will definitely find a way to spend more resources to keep the combination going and reach its peak in one go.
After all, managing this combination more carefully than before is a subtext of "not disbanded". Moreover, for the supporters of the group, in order to protect this combination, they will definitely work harder to support it than before.
Ye Zhao didn't know how Johnniez planned to deal with the follow-up issues of SMAP. He only knew that SMAP could not be dissolved now. Not only would it not be dissolved, but it would also survive this round of storm and go to a higher level.
However, this big event happened to SMAP this time. Although Ye Zhao was one of the melon-eating crowds who drank tea and watched the show, he still once again became related to this group in another way.
Just as he and Yuki Uemura Takahashi Ryuya were chatting about SMAP's member changes this time and how it would develop in the future, the phone that was placed on Takahashi Ryuya's side rang.
After the phone was picked up, what came from the receiver was Mitochi Iijima's voice, "Ye Jun, I'm disturbing."
"Iijima Sang... It's really a long time ago." Ye Zhao said politely.
But I thought to myself, here I was discussing the artists under your command.
