Reborn Japan for entertainment

Chapter 731 The Girl Under the Spotlight

In mid-January 2012, many fans were shocked by a bombshell thrown by Sony!

In order to give back to fans for their support over the years, Kiyoshi Sakamoto will hold a concert at the Saitama Super Arena on the [-]th anniversary of his debut!
Just one game!
And this news can't help but make the public sigh: time flies so fast!

Unknowingly, the blockbuster "Little Prince Sony" who debuted at the age of 14 has also debuted for eight years.

From a skinny boy who made his debut singing a tragic song, he has grown into a Sony boss who dominates the Japanese entertainment industry today. Kiyoshi Sakamoto's growth process is obvious to the public.

However, who would have thought of all this at the beginning. . .

Since focusing on bands and movies, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's personal music activities have almost disappeared.

The most recent solo single or album dates back to "Sakura Season" in 2008

However, even Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who has not released a solo record for four years, is holding a solo concert for the first time.

After all, no one wants to miss such a commemorative concert!

This upcoming concert has not only gained the strong desire of the fans, but even many famous people in the circle have called out to Kiyoshi Sakamoto on various occasions.

Even Sakai Izumi, who is preparing for a new album, also updated a new message on his blog after a long time:

"Get ready to go to Sakamoto-kun's concert!"

In the blog, a photo of the VIP ticket given to her by Kiyoshi Sakamoto was also uploaded.

This practice of pulling hatred is a pain for Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

Received a series of phone bombardments from friends in the circle, making him

The support and support of many big names in the circle made terms such as "Sakamoto Kiyoshi's Sing" and "Sakamoto Kiyoshi Thanksgiving Festival" airborne on the hot search lists of major portals and became the most popular in the Japanese entertainment circle in 2012.

Not only that, but in the next week, Sony also announced the lineup of luxurious guests who will be on stage for the Thanksgiving Festival that day!
Fukuyama Masaharu, Hamasaki Ayumi, Amuro Namie, Sakurai and Kotobuki. . .

All of them are well-known big names in the music world!

Among them, Sony's new girl group, Nogizaka46, which has attracted much attention since its establishment, also appeared in the guest lineup.

Sony's behavior is clearly showing an attitude: forcefully push Nogizaka!

After all, even Kana Nishino, the rising "girl leader" of Sony Music, made a strong debut, and the newcomer Aimer, who has attracted widespread attention in the music world with her song "Night of the Sixth Star", failed to join the luxurious lineup package. . .

However, no matter how many idol nerds were attracted by the performance of the Nogizaka girls in the variety show, they, who were not very interested in Kiyoshi Sakamoto's concert, also joined the ranks of grabbing tickets.

Because the audience of the concert is selected by the official fan club.

Therefore, for this concert, in just one week, the number of people who applied to join Kiyoshi Sakamoto's personal fan club exceeded a terrifying 30!
If you add the number of official fans who have already reached 250 million, the number of Kiyoshi Sakamoto's personal fan club has reached a terrifying 280 million!

Second only to the nation's No. 520 band, THE SUN's [-] million, becoming the artist with the second largest number of official fan clubs in Japan!

What's even more frightening is that the number of people in Kiyoshi Sakamoto's fan club is constantly increasing at an astonishing rate of 1000 people every day!

The maximum number of spectators that Saitama Super Arena can accommodate is only 7000 people. . .

Apart from some personal tickets, there are only [-] tickets that can be used for the lottery!

In other words, if you want to be one of the lucky ones out of more than 200 million people, the odds are outrageously low!
However, such a terrifying chance did not frighten these fanatical fans, but aroused their competitive spirit.

"No matter how much it costs, I must go to Kiyoshi Sakamoto's concert!"

With such an idea in mind, the scalper ticket was also copied at a sky-high price!
In such an atmosphere, the Thanksgiving Festival finally arrived!
. . . . . .

August 2, seven o'clock in the evening.

"Sakamoto Kiyoshi's [-]th Anniversary Appreciation Festival Concert" has officially kicked off!

For the protagonist Kiyoshi Sakamoto, this is a protracted battle.

For the four-hour concert, minus the performance time of the guests, he will sing all the songs since his debut in just three and a half hours.

Songs from singles and albums, plus some adaptations of the band, all add up to more than forty songs!

Holding a concert, although it is a very face-saving thing.

At the same time, it is also the bulk of the income of singers.
However, many singers have a hate-and-love attitude towards concerts.

Because holding a concert consumes too much energy!

One or two games is okay, if it is played continuously, it will be fatal!

A few years ago, as a member of THE SUN, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who had driven the Big Five Egg Tour, also had a deep understanding.

Moreover, after the concert, the filming of "Code M" is about to start.

As a spy movie, the neat but enjoyable fighting will inevitably become the main tone of the movie.

As the leading actor, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, how could he not have a strong body?
Therefore, three weeks before the Thanksgiving concert, he buried himself in the gym and began to prepare for the concert and the movie. . .

And this kind of preparation also allowed Kiyoshi Sakamoto to show a very good mental outlook and state in this concert.

At the beginning, he sang five songs in a row without changing his face. It was only the "relationship households" such as Yui Aragaki and Izumi Sakai who were sitting in the VIP seats very close to the stage, who saw the bruise on his forehead under the light. sweat.

Lyric song "Hitomi をとじて", blues allegro "SLOW DOWN", guitar singing "さくらのうた". . .

At eight o'clock in the concert, after the song "Dancing People" that ignited the audience, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's white shirt was soaked, and even stuck to his back.

It reminded him that it was time. . .

I saw him holding the microphone, and said in a regretful tone: "Next, I will take a break and hand over the stage to my guests. After all, they are also in the backstage, waiting for a long time... "

"Oh oh oh!!"

"do not go!"

The audience in the arena waved purple cheering sticks while booing, as if they were a little bit reluctant to leave Kiyoshi Sakamoto temporarily.

Facing the booing from the audience, Sakamoto Kiyoshi also narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile: "It's not that I won't come back, I just went down to drink some water and change clothes, and I'll be right back!"

"Then, next, please enjoy the performance that my first guest brings to everyone."

After speaking, he waved his arms and retreated backstage.

And as he moved, so did the lights on the stage, constantly "snapping" "snapping" and "snapping" going off.

The darkness, like his huge shadow, slowly devoured the entire stage from the front of the stage. . .

I don't know if it was ten seconds or 15 seconds, but just as the audience was waiting for it, suddenly, with a "snap", the darkness was pierced by a hot spotlight!

The lights focused on a group of young girls in the center of the stage.

"That is?!"
