China Entertainment 2000

"Buy this, oh, this, this, and that, please pack them all for me, thank you."

In a luxury store in Ginza.

Xiao Yaxuan, who bought things without blinking, made the beautiful female clerk who had not met such a big customer for a long time smile, and even looked at the man wearing a mask, sunglasses and baseball cap more favorably.

Obviously, this should be a man who does not want to reveal who he is shopping with his lover?

Since she started working in this industry, the female clerk has seen those mistresses and the like bring their sponsors to enjoy the evil capitalist pleasure, and she has long been accustomed to it.

If Xiao Yaxuan was not there, she would have wanted to go up and show her courtesy.

Even in her career, there are only a handful of sponsors who are willing to spend so much. The most important thing is that judging from the condition of the exposed hand skin, this man is obviously very young - willing to spend money, still young, and looks good. Isn't this better than serving those pot-bellied fathers?

"Miss, may I ask what you are doing?"

"I am using a credit card, but not mine."

As she spoke, Xiao Yaxuan turned around and looked at Zhou Yi who was admiring the items in the store: "I am using his."

"I thought you would say you are using your own credit card."

"My mother would beat me to death."

Facing Zhou Yi's teasing, Xiao Yaxuan recalled her extremely strict mother and couldn't help but sigh.

Although the female clerk didn't understand the Chinese conversation between the two, she quickly communicated with Zhou Yi in English and took his card.

"Your mother?"

Zhou Yi was puzzled: "You are in Japan, your mother can still control you?"

"See, this is the difference between the two of us."

Xiao Yaxuan leaned against the art column, smiled and shook her head: "My mother still controls my spending."

Not to mention the credit card limit, the monthly pocket money is 100,000 Taiwan dollars;

In order to prevent Xiao Yaxuan from learning bad habits and spending money recklessly or being cheated, Xiao's mother even hired a chief financial officer to audit part-time. Any large-scale consumption expenditure of Xiao Yaxuan needs to be approved by this chief financial officer.

In Xiao's mother's own words, the entertainment industry is too chaotic, and there are too many unexpected temptations. Her daughter is so rich that it is hard to say that she will not be addicted after being exposed to it.

Yao Qian can only manage her career, so she, as a mother, naturally has to pay more attention to her life.

"Obviously, in my mother's eyes, I am not a 24-year-old daughter..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Yaxuan pursed her lips, the tip of her tongue pressed against her throat, and while blinking faster, she turned her head to look at the bustling street scene outside the store. After a while, she said, "But 14 years old."

It is said that parents are the best teachers, but most of what Xiao Yaxuan learned from her parents is not very good.

"Sir..."

The returning clerk interrupted Xiao Yaxuan's memories. Zhou Yi, who took the card, looked at her with a smile on his lips: "As for your way of spending tens of thousands of yuan on a dog at home, I still support Auntie."

"?"

Xiao Yaxuan slowly typed a question mark.

No, am I telling you this to make you agree with my mother?

Is my sister a person who lacks that little money?

"So, my suggestion is, if you want to hide your private money and are afraid of being discovered, you can keep it here with me. I will keep it for you for free, and your aunt will definitely not know what's going on."

"..."

Xiao Yaxuan, who was carrying a lot of bags, rolled her eyes at him: "You have made hundreds of millions, and you are still thinking about my little money. Isn't it a bit unreasonable?"

"Who would complain about having too much money, especially for free-"

"Ah! Zhou Yijun? You are Zhou Yijun, right?!"

While teasing Xiao Yaxuan, in another part of the store, two young women who had secretly looked at him for a long time took the courage to come forward and ask a question, with obvious uncontrollable excitement on their faces: "You must be Zhou Yijun, right?

"I am too familiar with your voice, and that bracelet and Bodhisattva jade are all Zhou Yijun's symbols! ”

For Zhou Yi’s loyal fans, masks and hats alone are obviously not enough to cover up the idol’s brilliance, especially after they carefully compared the promotional photos - all the accessories can be matched, the voice is so similar and he speaks Chinese, if you are not Zhou Yi, who is Zhou Yi?

As for the woman next to him... I don’t know her.

Forget it, it doesn’t matter, she is probably just a model.

“Shh.”

Zhou Yi, who didn’t expect to meet his fans just by going out shopping, especially in such a luxury store, immediately took off his sunglasses and mask, raised his index finger to his lips, and smiled: "Don’t be too loud, it will affect the normal business of the store."

The two female fans who saw the real face of their idol covered their mouths with their hands, and nodded their heads like chickens pecking at rice. The sound of "woo woo woo" occasionally came out from between their fingers, which showed their excitement.

“Zhou Yi, can you really sing with Miyuki Nakajima?”

“Zhou Yi, can you write Japanese songs? ”

“Mr. Zhou Yi, what do you think of Utada Hikaru’s upcoming new album…”

When Zhou Yi took off his disguise, all the young customers in the huge store rushed in, and even squeezed Xiao Yaxuan out. The latter had to step back a few steps and stood there shaking his head helplessly.

However, when she looked at Zhou Yi who was busy signing autographs and taking photos, the corners of her mouth rose silently, and her eyes were full of the man’s ease.

"Arigado Zhou Yijun."

"Arigado Zhou Yisang."

"Ah..."

After Zhou Yi satisfied a whole layer of star-chasing girls by himself, his hands and energy were exhausted. Elva Hsiao was happy and relaxed, sitting aside and drinking milk tea leisurely - she even had time to wander out to buy milk tea.

Zhou Yi, whose hands were almost numb from fatigue, almost turned green when he saw her looking so leisurely.

"Aligado, Zhou Yisang."

Before Zhou Yi spoke, Elva Hsiao took the initiative with a smile, kicked the bag on the ground with her toes, held the milk tea cup in her hands, and solemnly followed the example of the Sakura girls, raising her voice and bowing.

Zhouyi: "..."

Depend on!

"Shocking!" Zhou Yi’s girlfriend exposed! Is it actually Hikari Utada from Taiwan? ! 》

"Old Enemy Literature!" Zhou Yi’s new girlfriend is nicknamed Taiwan Utada Hikaru in Taiwan! 》

"Utada Hikaru's substitute?" Emperor Zhouyi's charming wife? ! 》

"..."

Facts have proved that when it comes to finding topics, Japanese entertainment media is simply better than domestic Hong Kong media - they even directly pulled out Hikari Utada, a married woman who had just returned from her honeymoon to prepare a new album. Played with the so-called stand-in literature.

"Think back to that year, when Hikari Utada won the World Music Awards for the highest sales volume in Asia, beating Zhou Yijun, who only won the highest sales volume in Greater China. Since then, the Asian pop music emperor has never forgotten her..."

"It is said that after the news of Hikaru Utada's wedding came out, Zhou Yijun was heartbroken, so he found Elva Hsiao, who was billed by EMI as Hikari Utada from Taiwan when she debuted, as his girlfriend..."

"Elva Hsiao knew that she was a substitute, so she ran to Taiwan in anger, without even telling her close teachers and family members, just to have a showdown with Hikari Utada..."

"The reason why Utada Hikaru ended her honeymoon trip early is because she believed that she could not lose to Zhou Yi. She wanted to keep Zhou Yi in a state of regret and become the woman he would never get..."

"The emperor's infatuated wife, the inside story of Utada's flash marriage was exposed, it was actually for Zhou Yi!"

"..."

In terms of reporting angles and styles, and in terms of immorality, the lower limit of Japan’s entertainment media is far beyond Elva Hsiao’s imagination——

In just one day, her cell phone was blocked.

Utada Hikaru, who was sitting at home while the pot came from the sky, was also confused - he was not a buddy, he was with someone else, I had a flash marriage because Zhou Yi liked wives, was Zhou Yi the reincarnation of Cao Cao?

We don’t know each other damn well. We only met once at the World Music Grand Prix awards ceremony that year, and we were just acquaintances, and we didn’t even exchange contact information.

She has met this Elva Hsiao several times. After all, they are both under EMI. When Elva Hsiao first debuted, she also won the World Music Award for the highest sales volume in Greater China. She is a newcomer of the century who has been on par with the divas since her debut.

But, it was limited to meeting him a few times.

When did she become my substitute? ? ?

Is I so charming? ?

Subconsciously, after seeing the news, Utada Hikaru looked at himself in the mirror——

To say it's good-looking is a bit heartless, and it's pretty good to get a mediocre review. And because of hormone treatment, her body is a little plumper than before.

Those ardent fans of Ayumi Hamasaki now mock her by calling her Zhen Xiongguang.

Because Zhou Yi was involved, Utada Hikaru specifically asked his agent what was going on - and the answer he received was that the media was writing nonsense to gain attention...

The only thing to blame is that Virgin Records made a mistake in positioning Hsiao Hsiao, who had just made her debut. They originally planned to develop step by step under the name Hikari Hikaru of Taiwan Utada. Who would have thought that Hsiao Hsiao would become a fat man in one bite, and her first album would be a direct hit. It became popular throughout the Greater China region and won the sales championship in the Greater China region that year.

Originally, the name "Taiwan Utada Hikaru" had been abandoned by Virgin Records following Elva Hsiao's popularity. However, Elva Hsiao was not famous in Japan. In order to give the public an impression as quickly as possible, the media directly dug up this title again. came out, and a series of substitute literature was also associated with it...

Don't ask whether this love story is true or not, just ask whether this love story is wild or wild.

"Only if you are wild enough will you have sales. Look at what's written in Hong Kong."

In the hotel suite, the speechless Elva Hsiao took out several Hong Kong newspapers and placed them in front of Zhou Yi——

"Zhou Yi was so tired that his hands cramped, and hundreds of Japanese beauties expressed their satisfaction! 》

"Tokyo is too hot!" More than a hundred Japanese beauties were dripping with pleasure, and Zhou Yi was one against a hundred, and her legs were trembling! 》

"Zhou Yi is a good wife, Utada Hikaru married him as another man's wife..."

Compared with the Zhouyi Elva Hsiao scandal that has been chewed up over and over for a long time, in China, it is undoubtedly Japanese women and Japanese queens who can stimulate sales more.

Originally, the so-called "bringing glory to the country" was a topic that Zhouyi fans and even passersby, old, medium, and small, had been talking about, not to mention that this time the prefix included the word "Japan".

That must be severely whipped!

"Damn it, isn't this ruining my reputation? What does it mean to be a good wife? I'm very principled, okay?"

Zhou Yi despised the eyes of this group of people: "Besides, if you want to write, write something good, even if it's about the older Sakai Izumi, or the new singer Saegashi Yukari, who is nicknamed the younger version of Sakai Izumi."

I really can’t write about his fried rice noodles——

Oh no, many of his fans are underage, and they are the kind that are punishable.

"You picked it, right?"

Xiao Yaxuan, who came to complain, couldn't help but kick the man lightly when she heard it: "Do you know that because of you, everyone now knows that I stayed in Japan and didn't go to the United States, and my popularity in Japan has soared."

Originally, she was a little unknown in Japan, and she didn't come to expand the market at all. At most, some Chinese in Japan knew her name.

Now, with the nickname "Taiwanese Utada Hikaru" on her forehead and the so-called rivalry between the Japanese version of Utada Hikaru and Zhou Yi, her popularity and search volume in Japan have soared in a short period of time--

Her English name even became popular on Yahoo and Google Japan.

This is very annoying.

Teacher Yao Qian almost roared on the phone and told her to go back and record songs.

"Isn't it a good thing to have a higher profile? You're taking advantage of me, right? How many people want this level of popularity but can't get it."

Zhou Yi glanced at her with disdain: "Why don't you say thank you, Brother Zhou Yi?"

In essence, the surge in popularity of Hsiao Yaxuan in Japan is the same as the popularity he gained in Taiwan before his debut - both rely on the explosive popularity of one party to attract traffic for the other party.

It's just that Zhou Yi planned it that time in Taiwan, while this time it was purely an accident between Hsiao Yaxuan and Zhou Yi in Japan.

As we all know, Viking has been carrying out Hsiao Yaxuan's record plan to go abroad and internationally in an orderly manner.

They have already found a lyricist to write the English version of "The Sun Never Sets";

The song "U Make Me Wanna" specially created by the Blue group for Hsiao Yaxuan that year is also included in this EP.

Yes, the original singer of this popular song in Europe and the United States is actually Hsiao Yaxuan, but the English version was taken back by the Blue group to write the lyrics and released, and it became a big hit in Europe and the United States.

Now that Elva Hsiao is going to release an English EP, she will naturally sing the English version of this song.

The EP of three songs is now only one song away.

"Utada Hikaru is also going to release an English album in advance, I guess it will collide with hers, or be released at the same time as hers.

"Well... it's hard to say. The record contract she signed in the United States was not with EMI, but with Universal. The EMI executives were very dissatisfied with her, so they wanted to push me to compete with her. It just so happens that my popularity in Japan has also increased greatly because of you. ”

EMI was given the distribution in Japan, and Universal was chosen for the distribution in Europe and the United States. Utada Hikaru's operation of taking advantage of her popularity in Japan to eat both ends would indeed make EMI's senior management angry - they are not a small company without channels, after all, they are also international giants.

As the trump card of EMI's Greater China region, Xiao Yaxuan's record sales ability in Greater China is unquestionable. She can't beat the veteran queen Lin Yilian with one hand.

But compared with Utada Hikaru, she herself has no confidence.

This is one of the best monsters in the history of Japanese music.

"Zhou Yi, do you have any English songs in stock? I could lose to her before, but I don't want to lose this time." Xiao Yaxuan clenched her fingers and looked up at the man who was lost in thought.

She has never been a substitute for anyone.

"I don't have any in stock, but I think your experience can be sung into a song."

Looking up at her, Zhou Yi smiled: "For the song title, let's use the same name as a song in my first English album. Since you want to ride on the popularity, then ride on it to the end. "

"English album...same name?"

"Because Of You."

A song about the influence of family on children.

Of course, in China, more people are familiar with this song because of the "Bei Ying" episode of "World Football". This song was selected by the program team as the most touching BGM of that episode, and thus became popular.
