Chapter 455: Break dancing becomes very popular in the Mainland(1/2)

"Michael Jackson received a warm welcome at the airport. More than 600 reporters were waiting for the arrival of the King of Pop at Tokyo Narita Airport. This was also the second time that Michael Jackson came to Japan after performing as a member of the "Jackson5" band in 1973.

.

The first concert was held at Korakuen Stadium, home of the Yomiuri Giants baseball team. More than 40,000 tickets were sold out within 5 hours of going on sale. The organizer said that it was in contact with Michael Jackson to discuss increasing the number of concerts.

MJ's pet, Bubbles the gorilla, arrived on another flight and was also greeted by more than 300 fans.

For this concert, a cargo plane was specially used to transport more than 22 trucks of equipment, more than 700 lights, 100 speakers, and 40 laser generators to ensure the most perfect performance for the Tokyo audience."

"This is really crazy, crazy."

Ronald stayed in the Okura Hotel's room. After making a reservation in advance, he finally ate the complete hair-style toast carefully made by the chef, which was paired with black tea, bacon, sausages, etc. Ronald was very happy to eat.

Japanese people are good at cooking simple food carefully to create different flavors.

Diane, who was having breakfast with him, picked up the front row tickets for the concert that MJ's manager Frank DiLeo sent last night and looked around.

"It is said that a ticket is being sold for a sky-high price now. If you sell the two tickets in the front row, a girl will probably agree to them on the spot."

"What are you thinking about?" Ronald hugged Diane and sat on his lap, "We should leave early, otherwise we will probably be stuck in the crowd waiting for refunds at the door."

We exchanged contact information with Director Wu, and signed a distribution agreement for "Dirty Dancing" with the theater chain under the name of Kadokawa Shoten. We also have the commitment of two major Japanese entertainment industry bosses. We are just waiting for the seven major producers to return to Hollywood.

The factory came to pay homage and seek cooperation.

Ronald was so satisfied that he simply extended his trip in East Asia and went to Xiangjiang to see if there were any opportunities for cooperation.

Just after the film festival ended, MJ came to Tokyo to start the global tour of his new "Bad" album. Ronald received two tickets from Di Leo and planned to be a fan with Diane for a while.

At six o'clock in the evening, the lights in the Korakuen Stadium suddenly started to light up in a row. Ronald and Diane immediately felt the volume of the 40,000 spectators shouting together, like waves, blowing through the stadium as if they were solid.

.

"Pepsichore, I'm so glad you got it," a friendly female voice began to announce the names of the sponsors over the loudspeakers in the venue. Ronald vaguely recognized them as Pepsi-Cola and Kony Camera.

The drumbeat began to increase from slow to fast, and the sound became heavier and heavier. Finally, at a moment, all the lights illuminated the stage, and a row of people wearing leather jackets loomed in the smoke.

"Ah...ah...ah..."

Amid the deafening shouts of the audience, the laser began to draw bright lines on the stage. A man wearing a top hat, his hair made like instant noodles, and sunglasses appeared in the center of the stage.

MJ unbuttoned the shiny diamond-encrusted leather jacket, put one hand on his crotch, and began to twist to a fast rhythm.

The eyes of the entire audience were focused on this strange man.

The concert started with the new song "The Way You Make Me Feel" from the new album. The laser flashed brightly and darkly with the rhythm, and all the audience couldn't help but stand up and dance to the rhythm.

The audience at Tokyo's Korakuen Stadium was mesmerized. They were led by MJ to cry whenever they wanted, to laugh whenever they wanted, and to applaud whenever they wanted. It was as if he was God at this moment, taking whatever he wanted.

Ronald only felt that the appeal of this kind of superstar was more powerful than the best Hollywood movies. After all, it was a live performance, and the careful guidance of a movie had a different impact on the audience.

The one-and-a-half-hour performance ended quickly. The Tokyo audience cooperated and slowly left the stage in an orderly manner.

"These audiences really love MJ." Ronald looked at many female students wearing T-shirts who came to watch the show. They lined up at the door and called MJ's name to express their love.

Ronald and Diane arrived at the hotel, and Diane went to take a shower first. The concert made everyone sweat.

"I'm fine," Diane came out wearing only a bath towel and called to Ronald.

"CBS News 60 Minutes even came to do a live interview with MJ, and it will be broadcast simultaneously in America tomorrow." Ronald looked at the program on TV and lamented MJ's popularity. News 60 Minutes is the oldest news interview program.

, many people say that to understand America, all you need to do is watch this show.

Ronald also took a shower. The hot water washed away his fatigue. Ronald wiped his hair with a towel and came out to find Diane.

"No, Ronald San doesn't need this kind of service."

Diane happened to be answering the phone.

"What service?" Ronald asked.

"I don't know, someone called you to ask if you want a woman, or did he speak English."

"Huh?" Ronald was confused. He had never received such an unsolicited call at the Okura Hotel for several days in Tokyo.

Diane hung up the phone with a snap.

Ronald dried his hair and went to close the curtains. When he came back, he saw Diane answering the phone again.

"Yes, no, what? The prime minister's secret lover, no, no. We don't need it, OK, please don't call."

"What secret lover? That person again?" Ronald asked.

"Yes, he said their service is very good and they are the Prime Minister's secret lovers. It doesn't matter if they have women."

Diane laughed as she said this, Tokyoites have strange hobbies.

Ronald seemed to feel a familiar breath. He smiled and took the phone, "Hello? Michael, don't you want to rest? I see you are working very hard tonight."

Diane opened her mouth next to her, "What, is this a call from MJ?"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "He likes to call his friends, joking, I have received them several times." Ronald covered the phone and explained to Diane.

"Hahaha, how did you recognize me?" MJ was on the other end of the phone, laughing very loudly. He didn't have many friends, so he just liked to call and prank people in hotels.

"More than an hour is just a warm-up for me. Every time I finish singing, I feel in good spirits and can still sing."

"What, have you decided to sing a few more shows in Japan?" Ronald understood that a concert is a great exercise for the singer's body, just like a sports car preheating its engine. In such a short concert of more than an hour, singing

After finishing, the singer just reached her best state.

"Yeah, yes, the fans here are the best. They are so enthusiastic. I decided to perform five more shows here, in Yokohama and Osaka..."

"Yes, they are really nice. I saw many female students outside the court, shouting I love you MJ very enthusiastically."

"Hahaha..." Michael Jackson, who was in good spirits, chatted with Ronald on the phone.

"Where will you go next?"

"Me, I will go to Xiangjiang to see the film market there. You know, in addition to watching your first global tour concert, I am also here to sell movie copies."

"Hey, hey, I'll see it when I have the chance." MJ was silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked, "Do you know any officials from mainland China?"

"I'm not very familiar with it. I just met the mayor once. The factory I invested in there won an advanced award."

"I was in Tokyo and saw one of their documentaries, 'Yangtze River', which was filmed by Japanese people about China. I liked the scenery there very much and wanted to have a concert there. But my manager Di Leo contacted me

However, I haven’t found the right person.”

"It's more difficult to get a visa there. When I was traveling, I was able to get a visa only because they invited the women's volleyball team that won the championship at the Olympics." Ronald recalled that he almost didn't get a visa that year.

"I saw your news. You seemed to be speaking Chinese with Chinese directors at the film festival. Are you familiar with China? I really want to see it."

"Well, I can make a few calls, but I can't guarantee anything.

"It's such a mysterious country. If I can go there, I can do it as a tourist."

"Then I'll find someone to help me. Do you want to go to Xiangjiang? It's also from China, and it's much more convenient to travel."

"Really? That's fine. It's all up to you. I'll let Dilio contact you."



After leaving Tokyo, Ronald and Diane went to Xiangjiang together. They were warmly welcomed by Jackie Chan.

At the Fook Lam Moon Restaurant on Johnston Road, Wan Chai, Jackie Chan called all his team here. The two people who went to Los Angeles last time to help Ronald shoot a commercial were also there. They were helping Jackie shoot the Police Story series of movies.

"Michael Kissun is coming? That's a great thing. I'll call May right away. She really likes his new song. But will Michael come to Hong Kong to hold a concert? Our place is worse than Japan.

Quite a few, there are no big venues, and there aren’t many fans who can listen to English songs.”

"He probably doesn't have any plans. In Tokyo, he always opens in a baseball stadium with 40,000 people. At most, he can come to Xiangjiang for a trip. His concert will continue for another two weeks, but he still has time to have fun." Ronald

While talking to Jackie Chan, Diane used chopsticks to pick up the vegetables.

"But, he really wants to hold a concert in the mainland, and he asked me to ask you, is there any way you can help him contact him?"

"Hey, how can we do this?" Jackie Chan seemed to be more taboo about this matter. He shook his head, "But in Xiangjiang, just ask Mr. Zou and Mr. Shao to arrange it. Their relationship with the Hong Kong Governor is just to say hello.

.”

"Well, I'll ask someone else." Ronald thought of Chaoli, a Chinese actor he knew. He seemed to have a brother who was in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China.

Ronald let go of his worries and started to eat Cantonese food. His mouth was full of all kinds of barbecued food and seafood. He suddenly remembered something, "Yes, I heard that the movie 'Break Dance' I shot a few years ago is now

It’s very popular in China, have you heard about it?”

"No," Jackie Chan said. She didn't know much about dance films. "Have you heard of it? You? You? You? Your brother Luo's matter is my matter. If you heard it, please ask me."

The martial arts masters shook their heads one by one. Only the last thin martial master remembered something, "I really want to hear it. Is it called Thunder Love? My girlfriend likes it."

"What did you say, break dance? Brother Luo was talking about break dance. What was its original name? Go and find out."

"Okay, brother, I'll be there right away." The man immediately stood up and went to make a phone call.

After a while, the man came back in a hurry, "I asked La, after Luo Sheng's movie was released here, many people couldn't understand it because it was a ghost movie. But Mr. Shao filmed a movie there

It’s a follow-up movie, the box office is okay, it’s called Thunder Love.”

Then he took out two video tapes from a bag beside him, "My girlfriend is a dancer, and she happened to have video tapes of these two movies, and I brought them to Luo Sheng."

"Okay, you have done a good job, I will give you an abalone, come on..." Jackie Chan was very happy and turned the abalone over to him to eat.

Then he took two video tapes and handed them to Ronald, "This is your movie and our follow-up..."
