Summer in Kamakura is a song of youth.
It has the most beautiful coastline in RB and is the eternal summer background in Japanese dramas.
Surfer boys and girls in yukata are basking in the midsummer sunshine and looking for freedom on the beach. The breath of youth is everywhere, and even the little train has become romantic...
…………
Bunta Takakura bought a one-day Enoden ticket for 1,470 yen.
From Kamakura to Enoshima, four of the fifteen stations are parallel to the coastline, and half of the route can directly see the sea.
Enjoy summer time in Kamakura!
…………………………
Two hours later, Takakura Bunta returned to his apartment in Minamisenjucho, Arakawa District.
No one was living during this period, and there was a musty smell in the apartment. Bunta Takakura opened the doors and windows and swept the house with a broom.
Bunta Takakura took out a can of Kirin Ichiban from the refrigerator, drank a few sips, lay on the bed, and fell asleep.
This sleep lasted from the afternoon until the next morning. Takakura Bunta got up refreshed and took a shower.
…………
The tofu ingredients in Arakawa Ward have a high reputation in Tokyo cuisine circles.
The tofu here has a long history, using traditional hand-made methods, with a delicate taste and rich bean aroma.
In the block next to the apartment in Minamisenjucho, Arakawa Ward, where Bunta Takakura lives, there is a mapo tofu shop.
Bunta Takakura ordered a bowl of white rice, a bottle of Asahi beer, a large portion of green mapo tofu and five-in-one mapo tofu.
Green Mapo Tofu, the tofu has a delicate and soft texture with a unique taste.
The five-in-one mapo tofu is characterized by a rich sauce and slightly spicy taste, and is very delicious.
The hot Mapo Tofu, you can feel the delicateness, hotness and richness of the tofu in every bite, it goes very well with rice.
Takakura Bunta added three bowls of rice in a row and was sweating all over.
Tons tons tons...
A hearty meal ended with a generous drink of ice-cold Asahi beer.
…………
After eating, Takakura Bunta took the train to the Shinjuku store of Isetan Department Store.
Bunta Takakura signed an artist contract at Night Tokyo Club, and all future work arrangements will be by appointment only.
This new work model, which focuses on private high-end routes, concealment and flexibility, makes Takakura Bunta use mobile communication tools in many places.
Therefore, he planned to buy a mobile phone at Isetan Department Store.
…………
At the mobile phone counter on the second floor of Isetan Department Store, Bunta Takakura chose the indestructible Nokia 3310.
In 1995, three U.S. soldiers went insane after eating a large amount of mulberries in an Okinawa bar. They shot passers-by, killing six people and seriously injuring thirteen others.
The Nokia mobile phone in one of the passers-by's pockets "caught" the bullet, allowing him to narrowly escape death.
This made Nokia 3310 famous in RB.
This mobile phone sold nearly 126 million units in 1996, of which 23 million units were sold in Tokyo.
…………………………
After buying the Nokia 3310, Bunta Takakura sent text messages to Tony Futaki, Takami Yoshimoto, Shoichi Furuya, Akio Michisoji, Koichi Takano and others.
Then, he received a call from TBS producer Koichi Takano.
"Moses Moses..."
"Wentai, are you interested in singing?"
Koichi Takano was obviously emotional and spoke very quickly.
"Singing? What happened?"
Bunta Takakura lit a Peace cigarette.
"The new theme song of "Ultraman Tega". Johnny's Agency's quotation for the single is too high." Koichi Takano complained.
Bunta Takakura blew out a smoke ring and asked doubtfully:
"I remember that the single of "Take Me Higher" did well, why did you change the theme song?"
…………
In Hiroshi Nagano's contract as the main character of Ultraman Tiga, it was agreed that the V6 idol group to which Hiroshi Nagano belongs will be responsible for singing the theme song of "Ultraman Tiga".
With the popularity of the TV series "Ultraman Tiga", "Take Me Higher" was released simultaneously as V6's fourth single EP. It ranked 11th on the Oricon chart and stayed on the chart for four consecutive weeks.
This is the best result of V6 since its debut.
Under such circumstances, it is really strange that "Ultraman Tiga" has a new theme song.
…………
TBS producer Koichi Takano discovered that Bunta Takakura had misunderstood, and explained:
"Yes, the theme song "Take Me Higher" has performed well, so we plan to continue to cooperate with the V6 group to produce an overseas version of the theme song for "Ultraman Tiga"."
"However, Johnny & Associates' offer is too high."
"The TV station executives have long been dissatisfied with Johnny's monopoly on male pop singers... This time he is cooperating with Sony Records..."
Listening to TBS producer Koichi Takano's narration on the phone, Bunta Takakura remembered that he had heard Koichi Takano and general supervisor Hiromi Muraishi mention it during the filming of the third episode.
…………
The overseas market expansion of "Ultraman Tiga" is going smoothly, and TBS TV station has signed an introduction agreement with neighboring Magic City TV.
In this dark parallel world, the large Eastern country has also been affected by the global boom in R-rated movies. The relevant review has been fully opened and it has become the largest film and television consumer market in Asia.
This new theme song should be specially customized to enter the market of the big Eastern countries.
…………
Because according to Johnny's copyright agreement.
TBS TV station, Bandai Co., Ltd. and Tsuburaya Co., Ltd. have the right to use the song "Take Me Higher" only in RB.
From the perspective of TBS TV station, instead of spending a lot of money to buy the rights to "Take Me Higher" again, it is better to customize a new theme song for Asia's largest R-rated movies market.
…………
"Keiko Kanda, the producer of Sony Music, is an alumnus of the same generation as me."
"Tai Wentai, I noticed that your vocal range is very special during the last audition. You can try it."
"I'll give her your number..."
…………………………
In the evening, Takakura Bunta ate a fried pork cutlet bento at the Lawson convenience store in Shinjuku, and then went to work at the Night Tokyo Club in Kabukicho.
The VIP customer of the club, the fourth generation president of the Kariyuya, Emiri Aramaki, made a reservation for Bunta Takakura by name three days in advance.
The fourth generation chief of the hunting house, Aramaki Emiri, has a pair of bright eyes, and her skin is fair and delicate, like white porcelain that has been carefully cared for.
She likes to wear a short-sleeved cheongsam with a blue and white dragon pattern and carry a black-handled samurai sword. The slightly short cheongsam highlights her figure curves and fierce temperament.
Every time I come to Night Tokyo Club, I spend a lot of money. I order more than a dozen bottles of champagne at once, and I ask the waiter to use a 3-liter draft beer bucket and drink it all in one gulp.
Emiri Aramaki said: "She likes to see people drinking heavily, it reminds her of her dead husband."
This is the core financial backer of Night Tokyo Club, and only Takakura Bunta, the strongest creature in the sea, land and air, can handle this kind of drinking method.
…………
Bunta Takakura drank until midnight and successfully pushed his performance to the second place this month, including a 5% commission on drinks.
The money earned this night was much more than the crew of "Ultraman Tiga" made playing Kirialoid.
Four weeks of hard work on the set was not worth the money I paid for one night.
No wonder the stars in previous lives were so fond of visiting acupuncture points.
I'm having fun here, but I don't miss the crew.
…………
After drinking until midnight, Takakura Bunta was dealing with a champagne tower ordered by Emi Aramaki, when the Nokia 3310 in his pocket rang...
