Chapter 1149 Chapter 1158, Surprised? Unexpected?!
The last day of the year is called New Year's Eve in China and New Year's Eve in Japan. On this night, we pray to the gods for blessings, bid farewell to the troubled old year and welcome the new year.
Of course, there is also a habit that is as indispensable as watching the Spring Festival Gala, which is watching the Red and White Songs Contest!
It just so happens that at this time, the wealthy TBS is holding the Japan Record Awards on New Year's Eve, and even the time is almost the same, and it has to clash with the Red and White Songs Contest. It feels like a competition between the local Spring Festival Gala and the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.
And because the participating artists are from the same group, the traffic management department has specially set up a "green channel" between the NHK Hall and the TBS Hall in Tokyo for the stars to rush between the two events.
Mingcai is destined to be very busy today, as she has to attend two events. And Naoki Nagayama can't go to the scene to watch the live broadcast, he has to stay at home with Xiahua~
I barely stayed in Yamazakurain until the afternoon, and after preparing a sumptuous New Year's dinner for Naoki Nagayama and Xiao Xiahua, I had to go out at the urging of the staff.
Mrs. Nonaka Mari and others were naturally approved for leave by Naoki Nagayama to go back home. After all, they also wanted to celebrate the Spring Festival with their families. Only Naoki Nagayama was left in Yamazakurayuan to accompany Xia Hua, and a cat and a dog.
"Hana-chan, mom won't be back until very late, so dad will be with you tonight~"
Naoki Nagayama held Xiao Xiahua in his arms and walked around the yard for a while. After coaxing her to sleep, he put her in the crib and put Miaotaro aside.
"Nyan Taro, help me keep an eye on Xia Hua! I'm going to make some phone calls."
In the living room next door, Naoki Nagayama quietly dialed the phone:
"Well, everything has been arranged, right?"
"Green channel, is that okay?"
"Okay, then it's up to you!"
"."
The voice was very small, as if they were plotting something~
On the way to TBS Hall, Ueda Maki took the itinerary book and confirmed it with Akina one last time.
"In the Japan Record Awards, there are four awards: the Gold Award, the Best Singing Award, the Special Popular Award, and the final Record Award. There are four performances in total."
"After the Best Singer Award ceremony, we need to go to the NHK Hall to perform live at the Red and White Songs Contest and then return to the TBS Hall for the final Record Award ceremony."
The winners of the Japan Record Awards are naturally known in advance. In the entertainment industry, there are no actual awards announced on the day of the award ceremony. The so-called on-site announcement of awards is just a performance.
What’s more, top artists need to participate in both shows, and their travel schedules are coordinated by both sides of the show during such a tight time.
Akina Nakamori will receive four awards tonight. After receiving the first few awards and performing at TBS, she will immediately go to the Red and White Songs Contest to perform, and then rush back to the Record Awards ceremony to pick up the last grand prize.
Anyway, I guess I have to run when I walk!
“The accompanying personnel have already rehearsed, the route has been planned, and there will be staff from Yanyin to guide us throughout the journey!”
Maki Ueda told Akina Nakamori about today's plans, trying to reassure her.
"Yeah, I understand~"
After listening to this, Akina nodded to show that she understood, then turned her head to look at the city outside the car window.
"It's just that I was supposed to spend today with Naoki-san and Natsuka."
"."
Now Ueda Maki doesn't know how to persuade him~
On this night when the old and the new meet, there are still many people who cannot rest for the sake of life, such as myself!
But the entertainment industry has always been like this~
"Anyway, this is my last year!" Akina made up her mind, "I won't attend the Red and White Songs Contest or the Record Awards anymore!!"
Although I like music career, Akina Nakamori has already won two grand prizes. It’s okay to give them to others in the future. It’s better to spend this time with family.
Xiao Xiahua is still young this year and probably has no memory of it, but maybe she will be able to remember the New Year next year, of course with her mother by her side!
With such thoughts in mind, the vehicle soon arrived at the TBS hall.
Today, the TBS Hall was also crowded with people. Various reporters and fans of the artists gathered around the hall, wanting to be the first to take pictures of the winners, or wanting to see their idols up close.
The TV station had naturally already made arrangements for guidance. A fence was erected between the exit of the hall and the main gate for vehicles to pass through. There were also people on the road at the entrance to maintain order so that the passage of the participating artists would not be affected. The only section where they could be seen was the short section from getting off the car to the entrance of the building.
As soon as Akina Nakamori got off the car, the crowds on both sides of the aisle immediately cheered, and the enthusiastic voices even shook the gate.
"AKINA! AKINA!" "Akina, look here~" "Look here~"
Akina naturally heard the call, turned around, waved to the fans and smiled.
This also made the fans cheer louder and the reporters' flashlights kept flashing.
However, time was tight and Akina couldn't stay any longer. She could only clasp her hands together, apologize, and quickly walk inside under the guidance of Maki Ueda.
As soon as she entered the building, Akina felt like a product on an assembly line, being pushed forward by various staff members:
"Akina-san, this way~"
"Akina-chan, wash your face and put on some makeup first!"
"Akina-chan, comb your hair, style it, and put on a wig!"
"Akina-chan, is this the stage costume?"
"Akina-chan, you're about to go on stage. Drink some hot water first to warm up your throat."
"Akina, listen to this melody and remember the dance steps."
"Wait a minute, Akina-san. You are next."
"."
People from Ken-On, TBS, and the Japan Record Awards program team
Among the faces, there are acquaintances who have always been with her, and strangers with whom she has spoken a few words, but they are all like NPCs, accurately dressing up Akina Nakamori from her bare face to radiant beauty, and then waiting to be pushed onto the brightly lit stage.
"Arigado~"
Akina Nakamori bowed slightly and won the Best Singing Award at the Japan Record Awards.
Go on stage, thank you, dance, I am also a member of NPC~
Until the last moment, all the candidates for the Gold Prize were waiting together on the stage. The final record award will be selected from among the candidates for the Gold Prize!
The host on the stage invited the award presenter, Kenkichi Yamamoto, who was also the planner of the Record Awards. The thin old man took the microphone and said:
"The Japan Record Award is given to works in the entertainment industry that are strongly supported by the public and can reflect the reality of the year!"
"It has been popular throughout Japan since its release. It is unique in terms of artistry and originality, and perfectly reflects the voice of urban women."
"Winner of the Gold Prize at this year's Japan Record Awards!"
"Akina Nakamori——"DESIRE -passion-"!"
The spotlight was immediately focused on Akina Nakamori, and at this time, Akina also bowed to thank the other candidates. Everything seemed to be exactly the same as before the rehearsal.
At this moment, the host's words surprised her:
"Now, please welcome today's special award presenters, the family of Ms. Akina Nakamori!"
Turning around, I saw two women in kimonos coming out from the side of the stage. They were Akina's mother and grandmother. Next to them, there was a figure holding a child.
"Oga-san, Oppa-chan, and Naoki-san."
Akina looked at the few people in a daze, and also at Xiao Xiahua, who was in Naoki Nagayama's arms, but her face was painted with blush and patterns, and her original appearance was completely unrecognizable.
A warm current surged from my chest to my eyebrows! Even the sight of people was a little blurry!
Chieko Nakamori and Akina's grandmother hugged Akina with flowers, and when it was Naoki Nagayama's turn, he handed the baby directly to Akina and gave the two a hug~
"Akina, congratulations on winning the record award!" Naoki Nagayama whispered, "Hana-chan is here to congratulate mom, too!"
"Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"
Mingcai subconsciously hugged Xiao Xiahua, smelled the familiar milky scent, and listened to the words in her ears. She didn't know whether to cry or laugh!
Xiao Xiahua, who had been twisting and turning in his arms because of the lights and applause, seemed to feel her mother's breath and suddenly felt at ease. She opened her eyes and looked at her tearful mother, babbling as if to comfort her.
"you."
"The production team asked us to keep it a secret. Chieko-san and grandma also took it over together."
Naoki Nagayama explained quietly, and gently loosened his arms.
"On such an important occasion, we all hope to witness it together!"
"."
Akina was speechless, tears just kept flowing down. Even the best salesman seemed very vulnerable at this moment.
There was constant applause from the audience, and the candidates next to them were smiling kindly. The colorful stage suddenly felt warm.
However, the live recording is still going on, Chieko, the mother, has already accepted the interview, and the host has been trying desperately to delay the time.
It was impossible to explain it clearly in such a short time, especially on such a stage. Naoki Nagayama finally took the baby back:
"Akina! Just fucked daddy!"
Then he took a step back and hugged Xia Hua in his arms, completely covering her with his coat, leaving no chance for the host to take advantage of her.
This was the first time his baby appeared in public, and even though Xiao Xiahua had protected her face, he didn't want the camera to get more footage.
At this time, Akina was still in an excited mood and had no mood to sing at all~
However, as the music sounded, Akina, wearing a hip-hop kimono, began to dance to "Passion" as if by instinct:
“Get up, Get up, Get up, Get up
Burning love~~"
Akina hadn't recovered from her shock when she saw Ueda Maki running over to her.
"Akina, hurry up. The forecast says the weather might change, and there might be problems on the road. We have to hurry to the Red and White Song Festival!"
"But, Naoki-san is still here."
Mingcai was dragged along by the assistant helplessly~
"It's too late, get in the car!" Ueda Maki showed the decisiveness of a professional agent at this time, "Everyone is in the car!"
"In the car?"
"Yes! The stage costumes are also here! We can change into them right in the car!"
"."
It doesn't matter if you change clothes quickly, you do have underwear underneath. In the past, during concerts, I only had a few minutes to change clothes. I would just use a curtain to block the stage and change clothes in front of dozens of people.
But if they were photographed by reporters, then the first news of the new year would be "Akina Nakamori changed clothes in the car and almost exposed herself"!
And what does it mean that they are all in the car? !
After being pulled to the parking lot by Ueda Maki, Akina was shocked to find that the car she was riding in had turned into a stretched Lincoln! !
"This"
"Yes, this is our car!" Maki Ueda opened the door and let Akina get in, while she sat in the passenger seat.
After getting on the bus, I found Naoki Nagayama and the baby already waiting in the spacious compartment.
"Naoki-san!!!"
Mingcai happily hugged Xiahua in her arms again, and couldn't help kissing her again and again. Feeling the warmth and softness of the little meat ball, she felt at ease in her heart.
"Chieko-san and grandma, I had them sent back to Yamazakurain. They are not suitable to run around anymore~"
Naoki Nagayama said,
"Xia Hua and I will celebrate the New Year with you later!"
"Why didn't you tell me!" After calming down for a while, Akina looked at her husband with resentment.
"That's a surprise!"
Naoki Nagayama smiled and said,
"Look, Hana-chan is also a participant!"
After being kissed for a while, Xiao Xiahua's face was already red. But she had already responded to her own name. After hearing it, she looked towards Nagayama Naoki and smiled.
"Kahana-chan is also very happy, right? Let's give our mother our blessing together!"
"."
Akina angrily slapped Nagayama Naoki, then smiled and observed her baby's face.
“How to draw like this?”
"It's Chieko-san's work. You can't tell it like this!"
Naoki Nagayama didn't care at first, but children change very quickly, and after a few months you can't tell at all!
And even if they filmed it, would the media dare to report it? !
The previous incident of Tokyo Sports is still fresh in our minds. Which media dares to touch the people of Nagayama family? !
However, under the persuasion of Chieko Nakamori, some protective measures were taken.
"Naoki-san, are you going to go inside the Red and White Song Contest later?"
"Yes, I've already reserved a seat. I'll bring Xia Hua with me!"
Naoki Nagayama nodded. With his current status, it was not easy to get a position, especially since several of his friends had also come.
"Let's go home together after this is over!"
"Hi~~~"
The green channel from TBS to NHK was indeed unobstructed. Akina Nakamori even saw several cars of other artists on the opposite side, all running back and forth between the two programs.
I didn't brake along the way and arrived at another place in less than ten minutes.
The entrance of NHK Hall was even more crowded than TBS Hall, because there was a custom here in the early morning to ring the bell together with everyone to mark the arrival of the New Year.
When people saw Akina Nakamori's appearance, they also exclaimed~
Akina, who had already changed into a dress, didn't have time to say hello. She trotted straight into the hall and went straight to the backstage where she was waiting to go on stage.
Because they were changing into their costumes in the car, the stylist was there to help Akina check the firmness of her stage costume, and directly used pins to tighten it in some places to prevent mistakes on the stage.
The makeup artist had been waiting backstage for a long time, and began to touch up Akina's makeup while she was still gasping for breath.
"Are you not late?" Akina asked without moving her head.
"No, there are still two more before it's Akina's turn!"
"That's good"
"Next group. Akina Nakamori, get ready!"
The staff on site called out via the intercom, so Akina hurried to the entrance of the stage.
After the curtain was opened, Akina hurried over and stepped forward with Kenji Sawada to start the Red and White Team's appearance.
Amidst the applause, Akina walked to the front of the stage, bowed to Kenji Sawada, then slowly retreated among the artists of the Red Team and breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking up at the audience in the banquet hall, Naoki Nagayama should not have entered the venue yet, only the big names in the entertainment industry were there. However, Akina saw the familiar Yoshimura Otomo and Idou Shuichi and others
Originally, according to Akina Nakamori's status, she could have been the finale even at the Red and White Songs Contest, but after all, there were older and more experienced enka singers, so she was ranked very far back.
She was able to rest in the lounge for a while and regroup herself.
After changing into her silver kimono in the common room, putting on a silver wig, and applying a layer of white foundation on her face, Akina looked like a snow girl.
"Akina-chan, get ready to play!"
I don't know whose voice it is, but Akina quickly walks backstage again~
So tonight, the fourth "Burning Love" was sung again.
On the stage, Akina Nakamori is like a fantasy girl walking out of a bustling city, dancing with passion in her heart on the dance floor of a nightclub full of lights and wine.
It represents the pioneering women who have broken through the shackles of oppressive life and showed their fiery emotions.
The audience watching the Red and White Songs Contest in front of the neon TVs once again saw Akina Nakamori's amazing performance!
"It's really Top Star!!!"
