Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 222: Young Flowers of Japan

Chapter 222: Young Flowers of Japan
At around 5:30 in the afternoon, the recording of the outdoor portion of this episode of "Human Observation" was finally completed.

Shen Juan followed the staff back to the program crew's special car on the roadside, and the assistant immediately handed him a bottle of water.

For safety reasons, celebrities generally do not drink snacks or drinks provided by others when they are working outside, because no one can guarantee that they contain mineral water.

The director who was filming with him also came forward respectfully to help him take off the clip mic hanging from his collar, and said half sincerely and half flatteringly: "Shen Juansang is really popular! Today's outdoor shooting was almost impossible to record. This is the first time I have encountered such a thing in all my years in the industry!"

"It's not that bad actually. I feel like most of them are just passersby who came here to join in the fun because of the herd mentality."

Shen Juan can appear confident and outspoken, but it is better for him to remain humble verbally. After all, East Asia is not Europe and the United States. Influenced by Confucianism, most people here do not like overly extroverted personalities.

And strictly speaking, he was right.

It is important for people to know themselves.

His current popularity in Japan is limited to the youth group. Although his fans are extremely enthusiastic and have strong fighting power per person, his real popularity is at best second-tier.

It's impossible that all the people I met just now were his fans. He is not to the point where he can attract a large number of people just by going out without prior notice.

So he guessed that a large part of these "fans" came just to take photos and videos, and then post them online to brag to their friends and netizens that they had seen Shen Juan, so that when the summer vacation ends and school starts again, they can briefly become a "celebrity" in the class.

However, in order to create a program effect and spark topic discussion, the program team will definitely edit the scene where the fans chased their idol and caused the street to be blocked into the main film, and brag about his popularity as if it was a sensation caused by Shen Juan personally.

Of course there is no problem on Shen Juan's side.

He even wished the program crew would brag about it for a little longer.

After all, no matter what, "Human Observation" has been popular for many years, has a fixed audience, and is an evergreen national variety show that is well-known in Japan.

Therefore, as long as there is no random editing or spoofing in the later stages, his popularity and fame in Japan will definitely see a decent increase after this show is aired.

As the first variety show that Shen Juan has participated in after entering the Japanese market, this is undoubtedly a good start.

After the outdoor shooting was completed and a simple dinner was finished, Shen Juan immediately followed the program crew back to the TBS headquarters building to participate in the shooting of indoor content.

Frankly speaking, it's very inconsistent and weird.

Because the interior settings of Japanese variety shows can definitely be said to have remained the same for thirty years. Low EQ looks very rustic, while high EQ looks very contemporary and has a heavy sense of history.

Moreover, the performance style and the chat atmosphere between guests here are relatively exaggerated, making any foreign star feel out of place when appearing on Japanese variety shows.

For example, Taylor Swift is always shocked every time she comes to Japan.

But the general process is similar to those domestic variety shows that Shen Juan has participated in recording before. After all, Kuaiben is copied from the major popular variety shows in the island country.

Overall, it is nothing more than adding an observation mode similar to a dating variety show, allowing the host and guests to watch the amateur observation project shot by the guests outdoors this afternoon, and make reactions and comments.

It can barely be considered a brand new experience.

The recording was successfully completed a little after nine o'clock in the evening.

That's all for today.

Shen Juan exchanged a few polite words with the host and the director team backstage before waving goodbye.

Get on the bus and return to your hotel.

First, I reconfirmed the schedule and recording order of the Japanese EP with the Universal staff.

A mini album consists of six independent singles, excluding ANA's advertising song "Flying Boat".

The title songs are naturally "Pretender" and "Subtitle", both of which are top hits that can rank in the TOP100 Japanese singles YouTube click rankings.

Even "Pretender" reached the third place, second only to the two super hit singles "Spark It" and "Lemon" by Kenshi Yonezu that were popular throughout East Asia.

(The original singer is Official Hijiko dism, who is considered one of the most popular bands in Japan)

The other four singles were "Wrinkles", "Lights", "Blink of an Eye" and "Dancing Girl".

All of them come from Neighborhood’s post-00s talented singer-songwriter Vaundy. Although this guy is not popular in China, his status in the Neighborhood music scene is like that of Mao Buyi plus.

Not only does he compose lyrics and music, he can also do all kinds of post-production work including being a MV director.

In other words, his image is not satisfactory like Mao Buyi's, otherwise who knows how high it would have risen.

After confirming that the itinerary was correct, Shen Juan then took the relevant information of the MV actors from Yang Yangjin.

Due to tight schedule and time constraints, he will not participate in the filming of these MVs.

But this does not prevent him from finding someone to help shoot MVs, just like Jay Chou’s MV “Say Not to Cry”.

After all, in the era of streaming media, the exposure and traffic that MVs can bring to the song itself is still very important.

As the heroine of the MV of "Wrinkles", Shen Juan chose a new actress named Imada Miura against all odds.

Born on March 1997, 3, he is signed to a small agency and is currently making cameo appearances in various film and television dramas to improve his acting skills, patiently waiting for the opportunity to become famous.

She has big eyes and a typical sweet girl look. The Japanese media nicknamed her "Fukuoka's No. 1 Beautiful Girl."

What’s interesting is that another Fukuoka beauty, Kanna Hashimoto, has not only seen her appearance decline, but her character has also collapsed with the recent news that she acted like a big shot and bullied staff.

I can only say that she had to act in her true colors in the movie "I'm the Big Brother" to perform so well.
Shen Juan, the male lead of the MV of "In the Blink of an Eye", asked Universal to contact the popular first-line actor Masaki Suda.

This guy's status in Japanese entertainment is like Yiyang Millennium Plus. He is active in film, television and music. He has several hit singles, has won many Best Actor and Best Actress awards, and has little scandal. If his appearance did not conform to the Chinese aesthetic, he would have been like the South Korean actors next door, buying hot searches on Weibo and making a big marketing move to cut the leeks of Chinese fans.

For example, Song Jiang, the male protagonist of "A Date with the Devil", was on the hot list on Weibo for a while, but was humiliated and taught a lesson by netizens: Master, what is your job?

The heroine of the MV of "Dancing Girl" was given to Ikeda Elaisa, whom Shen Juan met through the TGC Tokyo Girls Show.

Born on April 1996, 4, he is 16cm tall and weighs 170kg. He is an actor and model of Japanese, Filipino and Spanish descent.

Her appearance is probably above average, but her figure is quite amazing. Friends who have seen her catwalk all say she has a good figure.

Shen Juan returned the actor's information to Yang Yangjin.

"There shouldn't be any problems on my end, so let's just proceed as planned. By the way, when will all the later work be completed?"

"Universal has said that if everything goes well, the entire EP can be produced by the end of September. The specific release time is up to you," Yang Yangjin replied.

"Then let's set it in October or November."

Shen Juan also plans to produce a Chinese EP at the end of the year, so the release time must be staggered.

After talking about work, Shen Juan planned to take out his mobile phone to check out the quarrels in the domestic fan circle to relax, but as soon as he took it out, it suddenly rang.

I haven't used Kakao for a long time. I just added two new friends and logged in again today, and I received a new message.

Jennie: [Are you still working? If you have time, how about going out for a drink? I happen to know a quiet and secluded bar with a great atmosphere. ]

Although the message had changed from unread to read, Shen Juan still did not rush to reply.

Instead, he opened another chat window and typed: [Are you with Jennie now? ]

Jisoo: [No, she went out. She said that a childhood friend who happened to be traveling in Tokyo also asked her out to meet up and reminisce about the past. What’s up, Shen Juanxi? ]

Shen Juan understood instantly, it turned out that Jin Zhenni first found an excuse to dump her companions, and then came out to secretly look for a man.
[It's okay. I wish you a smooth concert and go to bed early tonight.] Shen Juan still saved her face.

Although he can refuse such things or complain about them in private, if he tells it to a third party, it would show that there is something wrong with his character.

There is a way to be a scumbag, and he still understands it.

【Thanks. 】

Jin Zhixiu exited the chat window with some doubts, lying on the bed looking at the white ceiling, her thoughts began to diverge unconsciously, what a strange man
After finding a random reason to reject Jin Zhenni, Shen Juan received a new unread message from LINE, which he had just downloaded, registered and started using in the past few days.

(If Kakao is the South Korean WeChat, then LINE is the Japanese WeChat)

Satomi: [Alex, are you free tonight? When we were recording the show this afternoon, didn’t you say you love wine tasting? I happen to have a bottle of 86 Lafite here, would you like to come to my house for a drink^·^]

Shen Juan always felt that she was hinting at something, as if she was hinting at him to go over and play poker with her.

But it's actually normal.

After all, they are foreigners. They don't live and work in the same country, and most of the time they are thousands of miles apart. Even if someone really develops feelings for each other that shouldn't exist, they can't interfere in each other's lives.

That is why it is so easy for a series of cross-border one-night-stand gossips to arise in the entertainment industry.

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Juan gave his answer:

[How about you bring the wine to me? ]

He really likes wine tasting.

However, it is safer and more reliable to exchange experiences at a familiar table.

Perhaps it was because Ishihara Satomi’s residence was not too far from the hotel where Shen Juan was staying.

About half an hour later, she arrived.

After opening the door and taking off the mask, she still had that familiar sweet smile, but her makeup and clothes had changed compared to the cute image when we first met in the afternoon.

The Ishihara Satomi who appeared in front of Shen Juan at this moment had a more seductive aura and was obviously more charming.

"Ms. Ishihara, you weren't followed by paparazzi when you came here, right?" Shen Juan welcomed her in and closed the door.

"Of course not. After all, I am a mature artist who has been in this circle for more than ten years. I am no worse than you in avoiding paparazzi." Ishihara Satomi didn't think that what Shen Juan asked was excessive.

After all, we are all adults, and we get together tonight just to relieve loneliness and reward our bodies. Naturally, we know that it is unrealistic to ask the person we are having a one night stand with to be considerate of us in every way and to create a romantic atmosphere.

And Shen Juan is afraid of being secretly photographed, so isn’t she afraid too?
If she was photographed spending the night in a hotel with a foreign man, it would also cause great damage to the image of her, a female artist who just reached the peak of her career this year through a hit drama.

So the two of them, who knew exactly what would happen tonight, sat on the sofa and chatted briefly for a while. After slightly warming up the ambiguous atmosphere in the room, Shen Juan finally asked the question he had always wanted to ask.

"By the way, where's that bottle of wine you mentioned, Rimi?"

He had noticed long ago that Ishihara Satomi's hands were empty and she didn't look like she could hide any alcohol on her body.

"Yes, where's the wine?" Ishihara Satomi smiled and moved her body, her whole body pressed against Shen Juan. A charming smile appeared on her face. She said to Shen Juan who was so close to her: "I don't know either~"

Shen Juan smiled.

That being the case, it’s time to get down to business.
