Reborn Japan for entertainment

Chapter 216 Strange Invitation

In this way, the tour of Japan that Kiyoshi Sakamoto took Taylor around began.

Authentic Japanese cuisine in Tokyo, let Taylor taste the delicacy of Asia;
The comfort of the hot springs under Mount Fuji made her feel the beauty of the hot spring country;
The Kinkakuji Temple, the ancient city of Osaka and other places of interest made her realize that in addition to a famous name called "Monkey", she also learned about the history of the Warring States Period.

The fireworks display in summer, as well as the local summer festivals, made Taylor feel the authentic Japanese culture.

However, during these few days of travel, what Taylor was most curious about was why Kiyoshi Sakamoto always wore a peaked cap and a mask.

Under Kiyoshi Sakamoto's stern explanation, Taylor realized that his good friend in Japan is the idol of all young people in Japan, so in order not to be blocked when traveling, some small disguises are still necessary.

And when Taylor asked curiously, who is his status in the Japanese music scene equal to that of the American music scene, Kiyoshi Sakamoto answered with a little pride after pondering for a moment.

"Justin Timberlake. My current status in Japan should be similar to this handsome guy's status in the United States..."

It’s not that Kiyoshi Sakamoto boasted about himself. If you want to talk about his status in the Japanese music scene, he has sold more than 1000 million records after his debut for more than two years. The champion of single sales and the champion of year-end album sales.

Compared with Boss Jia at this time, he may be a little more powerful. It may be more appropriate to use the name of a future person to compare with Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

Justin Bieber!

In the future, Justin Bieber's status in the European and American music scene will be similar to Sakamoto Kiyoshi's current status in the Japanese music scene.

It’s just that Kiyoshi Sakamoto is limited to being an Asian, and he is not like Justin Bieber, who can sweep the world in the European and American music circles. However, in terms of music, if Kiyoshi Sakamoto releases English singles and albums, he can also have a place in the European and American music circles. The reason for this is that the public acceptance will not be as common as that of white people. . .

After all, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is a reborn person. I don’t know how many good European and American songs I have heard in my previous life. If I play out one by one, it is not impossible to make a breakthrough in the European and American music scene.

However, at present, Sakamoto Kiyoshi still has no intention of developing into Europe and America. After all, he has not yet reached the peak of the Japanese entertainment industry. How could he leave his foundation at this time and go to Europe and the United States. . .

This is so silly. . .

For the consequences of doing so, just refer to the Korean entertainment company, the Wonder Girls group under JYP, and you will know.

Therefore, even if you want to develop in Europe and the United States, you have to think about it after you have reached the top of the entertainment industry pyramid.

And hearing Kiyoshi Sakamoto's boastful answer, Taylor didn't think he was bragging.

Because, judging from the past few days of playing, Taylor can know from the songs that are constantly playing in loops in various shops on the street, the posters posted everywhere, and the constant appearance of Kiyoshi Sakamoto on the big screen. His country must be a very famous person.

This also allowed Taylor to deepen his admiration for Kiyoshi Sakamoto in his heart. After two and a half years of debut, he became an idol of young people with great influence in his own country.

This kind of achievement also reminded Taylor, when he saw the 15-year-old Kiyotoki Sakamoto at the Nashville concert, with a green face, but a strong appeal and control on the stage.

This made Taylor think of a possibility.

She directly asked Kiyoshi Sakamoto, "KIYO, when will your second English single be released?"

"Eh?"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was walking with Taylor on the streets of Osaka, suddenly heard Taylor stop, asked this question, a little confused.

Looking at Kiyoshi Sakamoto with a blank face, Taylor had no choice but to continue talking.

"Your first English single "I'm Yours" was released in the United States after you met me. I also bought it, CD."

"Oh, thank you." Sakamoto still didn't understand what she meant.

"I think so, KIYO, if you release your second English single, many people will definitely buy it! You know your song "I'm Yours", but it is still on the Billboard chart It's on the list!!! Besides, your musical talent is the best I've ever seen among young people!!!"

"So, when will your second English single be released?"

Although Taylor knew that Kiyoshi Sakamoto's base camp was still in Japan, but what she thought was that she didn't need to go to the United States to develop.

Just like last time, release a single and release it in Japan and the United States at the same time.

Taylor's small thoughts are very simple, and she hopes that Kiyoshi Sakamoto can release more new singles, so that she in the United States can also hear new songs from Kiyoshi Sakamoto and feel his musical talent.

In fact, Taylor did not tell Kiyoshi Sakamoto that she bought the single "I'm Yours", but not one, but twenty.

After leaving two for myself, I gave the remaining [-] to my good friends. I want everyone to know that I have one who sings well, looks handsome, and is full of musical talents. good friend. . .

Of the two left, one was for listening, and one, she hadn't opened it, and planned to keep this single CD as a souvenir.

Hearing Taylor's words, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was also a little surprised, and at the same time considered the feasibility of this matter in his heart.

"Second English single?"

Finally, after playing in Japan, Taylor did not get any answers about his second English single from Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

However, just when Taylor was about to forget about this matter, before Kiyoshi Sakamoto sent her on the plane home, Taylor saw Kiyoshi Sakamoto saying with a smile on his face.

"Taylor, about the second single, you are in the United States, wait for my good news!"

"Bon voyage!!!"

When hearing Sakamoto Kiyoshi's answer, Taylor was a little stunned at first, but after she tasted the meaning of the words, she also smiled, waved vigorously at Sakamoto Kiyoshi, and said.

"KIYO! I'm waiting for you in America!!!"

The two people who will have more intersections in the future will meet and part for the first time, but it will not be the final parting.

. . . . . .

Attack on Taylor, go.

What was left to Kiyoshi Sakamoto was a single CD with a long paragraph written on it and signed by himself.

By the way, Sakamoto Kiyoshi is naturally very happy with Taylor's plan to write his name on the composer of "Our Song".

However, his heart is still a little fluctuating.

Thinking of this song, which was a song about the relationship between himself and Taylor, Kiyoshi Sakamoto suddenly remembered Taylor in the bathroom on the first day when Taylor moved into Kiyoshi Sakamoto's house, naked in the bathroom. . .

"Oh! It's too bad, the nosebleed is coming again?!"

Terrible virgin. . .

After Taylor left, the original plan to visit her in the United States was naturally unfeasible.

Nonsense, people have come to Japan directly, so you have the nerve to say it. . . ——Tucao from the author.

People, it doesn't matter if you are not a salted fish, after cooking for a long time, you may become a salted fish. . .

What's more, Sakamoto Kiyoshi is very close to salted fish. . .Dried fish.

In this way, August, full of glory and joy, has passed.

As soon as September entered, Kiyoshi Sakamoto began to sigh when he saw the calendar hanging on the wall.

Because, September is already the last month of his vacation. . .

Sakamoto Kiyoshi, after working as a salted fish for nearly five months, at this moment, all he imagined in his mind were piles of jobs that were about to hit him, and images of himself being too busy.

Thinking of this, Sakamoto Xianyu suddenly jumped up from the bed, stood on the bed, and shouted bitterly.

"Yada (don't)!!!"

Such a meaningless behavior just provoked a nagging from my mother. . .

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was not ready yet. When he entered the working state, Uncle Ishida sent a rather strange invitation. . .

"What did you say? "Nicola" wants me to be a special guest?!"

"Nicola" is a popular fashion magazine issued by Shinchosha in Japan, which is mainly aimed at female students from the upper grades of elementary school to the junior high school readers.

The cover models of each issue are beautiful girls full of girlishness. . .

However, this year, Xinchaosha boldly made an exception.

Because of the huge popularity and influence of Sakamoto Kiyoshi among young people, in order to make the magazine a higher level, Shinchosha made a decision of great significance.

In the special issue released in March, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, the idol of the new generation of young people in Japan, was invited to be the first male cover model in the history of this girls' fashion magazine.

At that time, Kiyoshi Sakamoto didn't want to accept this job because of his physical and psychological problems. However, Shinchosha, the publishing house of "nicola", contacted Kiyoshi Sakamoto in order to let Kiyoshi Sakamoto accept the invitation. My friend, Yui Aragaki, asked her to persuade him.

Because she debuted from "nicola" and just graduated last year, Yui Aragaki still has a deep affection for this magazine, so she also did a lot of ideological work with Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

At that time, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, after seeing Karma acting like a baby to him, agreed in a daze.

So, just like that, Kiyoshi Sakamoto became the first male cover model of "Nicola"!

Although it was only one issue, but because it was a special issue, and it also invited Sakamoto Kiyoshi, the prince charming in the hearts of girls, the special issue of that issue sold more than 5 copies!

It is more than four times more than the average sales volume of more than 1 copies.

This kind of achievement also made the senior management of Xinchao Club very excited.

They also wanted to continue to invite Kiyoshi Sakamoto to become the exclusive male model of "nicola", but Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was not interested in this, firmly refused.

Although it is a pity, the high-level executives of Shinchosha are still very friendly to Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

No, the invitation sent to Kiyoshi Sakamoto is to let him come over. This time, the readers' model selection competition will increase his popularity as a special guest, and he will also have a relationship with Kiyoshi Sakamoto by the way, so that he can come to shoot the cover next time.

Hearing this news, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was bored at home, suddenly felt that it was time to go out and look for a job. . .

"Is there a reader model audition?"

"Mianbai (interesting)..."
