Chapter 665 The red and white belonging to THE SUN

2010, June 12.

Seven o'clock in the evening.

Tokyo, Shibuya Ward, NHK Concert Hall.

In the lounge, different from the handsome and well-fitting suits in previous years, the three of THE SUN, who officially acted as the hosts of the Red and White Song Concert as a band group this year, wore traditional Japanese clothes, kimonos.

However, compared with the ease of previous years, this year's red and white gave the three of THE SUN a bit of a headache. . .

No, to be precise, it was two people.

It is necessary to rehearse the performance in advance and remember a thick stack of hosting scripts. This makes Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki, two young people who are the first MCs of such a large stage, very nervous and uneasy.

Regardless of Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki, they have debuted for six years and are already big names in the music world.

However, I was still uneasy.

After all, the two are only 22 years old. . .

However, when I saw someone sitting firmly in the lounge, holding a mobile phone and sending text messages to his girlfriend while smiling, although I felt that it was an eyesore, I even wanted to beat him up.

However, the hearts of the two couldn't help but relax a lot.

"Anyway, there's him..."

For THE SUN, for Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki, the existence of Sakamoto Kiyoshi is not only the captain and leader, but also the backbone and pillar of the two!
As long as he is by his side, Xiao Chuanzhen and the two will feel that a force is emerging from their bodies!
What's more, they know how terrifying Sakamoto Kiyoshi's memory is. . .

Even if he acts as the host of Red and White alone, he is not afraid of broadcast accidents such as jamming, silence, and awkward chats.

Thinking about it this way, Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki let go of the huge pressure in their hearts.

As for Kiyoshi Sakamoto?
After this guy recorded all his scripts, as well as those of his teammates, into the database in his mind, he kept sending text messages to his girlfriend.

"Where are you? Are you in the apartment, or are you back in Okinawa?"

"In Okinawa..."

"Oh, that is to say, you are now watching red and white with your father-in-law, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law?" After thinking about it, Kiyoshi Sakamoto smiled smirk and pressed such a sentence.

He was very curious, what kind of expression would be on the giant loli's face when he saw such a name?

Embarrassed?Blushing but loving it?or it could be. . .

Soon, in less than ten seconds, with a "beep", her reply came!
"??????" There was a series of question marks first, and then the text: "Father-in-law?! Sister-in-law?! Yabai, you idiot, what are you talking about?!"

Judging from the text, Sakamoto Kiyoshi thinks that the giant loli, nine out of ten, "Well, it should be shy."

Before he could think of the second text message, Yui Aragaki's second text message came soon.

"Eh?" Opening it, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly, "Hahaha!"

The content of the newsletter is as follows:
"Yo ho! Sakamoto-kun, we haven't promised to marry our cutest sister to you! You have to keep working hard!"

Pull down, and there is another PS: "Dear brother-in-law..."

Judging from the text messages, Kiyoshi Sakamoto immediately made up an interesting picture: Yui Aragaki, who was watching red and white with his family while sending text messages to Kiyoshi Sakamoto, was discovered by his two naughty sisters and was robbed He left the phone and sent such a text message.

That's why Sakamoto Kiyoshi suddenly laughed.

For this reason, he also received angry gazes from two single dogs who were arranging their clothes not far away.

Ignoring the slightly resentful eyes of the two, Kiyoshi Sakamoto wanted to continue replying, but was interrupted by the staff who walked into the lounge.

"Sakamoto-san, Ogawa-san, Chiba-san, please prepare to appear."

"it is good!"

With a promise, Kiyoshi Sakamoto quickly pressed a few words and sent out the last text message before going on stage.

"Okay, I will try my best!"

. . .

"Singers gathered here tonight, please give us your best performance!"

"Pursue a higher level and compete with each other. Please let us enjoy everyone's songs!"

"The red and white song battle, the opening!"

With the opening speech of the golf prodigy Ryo Ishikawa, the 61st NHK Red and White Song Battle officially kicked off!
"Connect with songs, the 61st NHK Red and White Song Battle!"

The three of THE SUN wearing kimonos, and the hostess Nao Matsushita, following the order of the four, from the stairs behind them, tonight's singers also made their debut!
The first to appear is AKB48, an idol girl group with a long history with Sakamoto Kiyoshi!

Afterwards, one by one, the singers walked down the stairs one after another.

"AKB-san! Hirano Ayaka-san! Nishino Kana-san..."

"Flumpool-san, FUNNY MONKEY BABYS-san, TOKIO-san..."

Under the introduction of THE SUN and Matsushita Nao, the singers of the red group and white group waved to the audience one after another.

It is worth mentioning that in the past five red and white song battles, the white group composed of male singers won the final victory.

Therefore, when shouting slogans, the three of THE SUN also shouted loudly, "Everyone, we are going to aim for six consecutive victories, come on!"

Compared with Matsushita's sister who is fighting alone, her momentum is much stronger. . .

The red and white pattern is still the same.

The red group sent a singer, and after singing, the white group sent a singer to fight against it.

Finally, according to the number of audience votes, the winner of the red and white parties is determined.

On the red and white stage, besides the host who kept dangling in front of him, the singers who received the most attention were the opening and finale singers.

The opening of this year, not surprisingly, was handed over to the "Japan's first sister" Ayumi Hamasaki who is in the transition period.

Although a single by THE SUN swept the entire Japanese music scene.

However, in Japan in 2010, there was a trend of idol groups, and the new AKB48 and Arashi gradually occupied the top positions of Oricon.

The Korean wave was fermented in Japan. Groups such as TVXQ, BigBang, and Girls' Generation all achieved good results in Oricon.

However, Ayumi Hamasaki, who has debuted for 12 years, is still actively publishing various works, innovating music and styling styles, and setting many records for him.

Therefore, the heavy responsibility for the opening still falls on her shoulders.

Counting this year, this is the third consecutive year that Ayumi Hamasaki has served as the opening of the red and white show!
"Then, next, please enjoy the special performance brought to us by Ayumi Hamasaki, "Virgin Road"!"

The rhythm of the music sounded and the lights dimmed. Just as the audience was looking for Ayumi Hamasaki, Ayumi Hamasaki's distinctive voice came from behind the auditorium.

"Hey! I haven't been able to say it properly so far..."
