Chapter 869: A concert with 100,000 people!

When the first ray of morning sun shone into the bedroom, Naoki Nagayama woke up~

Although they walked around a lot yesterday, the young body naturally recovered very early. Even for Akina, who is a girl, she would be full of energy after a sleep.

"Akina, get up!"

Naoki Nagayama patted his girlfriend next to him until she opened her eyes, then took a small cake out of the refrigerator and lit a candle,

"Happy birthday!"

"Eh? When?!" Akina Nakamori woke up instantly, "I didn't see Naoki-san buy a cake!"

"Of course it was prepared secretly!"

Naoki Nagayama smiled. Staying in a presidential suite in a high-end hotel naturally has various conveniences.

What does it feel like to blow out birthday candles as soon as you wake up? This is the joy of being pampered to the sky~

Akina closed her eyes and made a wish, then blew out the candles very happily, and then... the small strawberry cake was just enough to satisfy the two people's breakfast.

"Naoki-san, when are we going to the concert?"

With her boyfriend by her side, Akina didn't have to worry about the itinerary at all, just follow along.

"It officially starts at noon in the UK, and two hours earlier here in Feicheng, but because of the time difference, it starts at 9:00, so we have to go early..."

With the progress of the concert time, Feicheng, which was not big, began to have more crowded people in the streets and alleys, and the Feicheng Kennedy Stadium, where the concert was held, was even more overcrowded~

If you go late, it will be troublesome to enter the venue by then.

After everything was packed, Naoki Nagayama took Akina Nakamori and got into a taxi, rushing towards the stadium.

It was mid-July, and the morning sun was already very fierce, but in the huge Kennedy Stadium, it was already overcrowded. The grass in the middle was full of people rubbing shoulders, and it was very difficult to walk in.

In a noisy and chaotic environment, Naoki Nagayama held Akina's hand and arrived at the VIP seat quite smoothly.

The seat was located on the second floor of the stadium, not far from the main stage. You could clearly see the people on the stage, but you didn't have to stand on the field like the audience in front of the main stage, where several broadcast screens were standing~

"Naoki-san, there really are a lot of people!"

Akina Nakamori leaned on the railing of the second-floor viewing stand, looking at the full stadium, feeling very shocked.

"It is said that there are 90,000 people!"

Naoki Nagayama said. With so many people, it really looked like a vast ocean. If the number of people was in the thousands, they would be like matches, but after tens of thousands, it was a dense mass, which almost made people have trypophobia!

"90,000 people..."

"Maybe Akina's concert will have so many people in the future!" Naoki Nagayama smiled.

"How is that possible!"

Even though she had performed many concerts, Akina Nakamori had never thought that she would perform in front of so many people... Wouldn't she be nervous and trembling all over when she went on stage!

At most... at most she had thought about holding a concert at the Budokan in Nihon~

It was already late when Naoki Nagayama arrived, so after a period of noise, with the host going on stage, this charity concert connecting London, UK and Feicheng, USA officially started!

"Now, it's LIVE AID time!"

The first to appear was the American folk queen Joan Baez, who sang the classic holy song "Amazing Grace" and the concert theme song "We Are The World".

In the warm music, it announced the theme of this LIVE AID and the beginning of the charity performance.

Next, the noisy and energetic music started to play, and the entire stadium was filled with a strong rhythm, which made people realize again that this was a rock music feast!

"Oh oh oh~~" "Oh my god!" "That's XXXX"

The singers on stage were roaring, the audience under the stage were cheering, the flying small flags were waving on their hands, and the cups containing drinks were splashing liquid from time to time. Everyone was immersed in the outstanding performances brought by the rock masters.

In such a hot weather, the Feicheng Stadium started to boil absolutely from the beginning...

"

I-I will be king

And you-you will be queen

Though nothing will drive them away

We can be heroes-just for one day

"

David Bowie sang "Heroes" which pushed down the "Berlin Wall" and jumped happily~

"

And wouldn't it be nice to live together

In the kind of world where we belong

You know it's gonna make it that much better

"

The Beach Boys sang "Wouldn't It Be Nice", bringing people into sweet love~

There was also the return of heavy metal veterans, and the dedicated contributions of rock masters...

Even people who didn't understand music were completely immersed in the shock brought by rock music at this time.

The hot temperature didn't hinder the enthusiasm of the singers and fans at all. Under the high temperature of 35 degrees, the entire Kennedy Stadium was still high to the extreme. Many fans even took off their shirts, but from time to time, fans who fainted were carried out of the stadium by security personnel...

The organizer had to use high-pressure water guns to spray in the air to help the fans cool down.

At this moment in Tokyo, it was the middle of the night.

Even though Nihon's TV station broadcasted it, many viewers sang and danced at home following the screen, but after all, it was night, and it was only high in a few bars...

Shuichi Yin Tang and Otomo Fangcun were in a club at night, and opened the TV out of curiosity~

"Naoki-san and Akina-chan, are they at the scene now?" Otomo Fangcun looked at the picture on the TV and asked curiously, "So many people?!"

The ticket he bought had been given to a friend, and then maybe given to someone else... Otomo Fangcun himself actually didn't like rock music. After all, he was an older person, and enka was more suitable for him.

"The scale of this charity concert is not small!"

Shuichi Yin Tang, who was drinking beer, said. He actually wanted to join in the fun, but the work in his hands couldn't be put down,

"It is said that famous figures in the rock world almost all went!"

"Oh? Are there any Nihon singers?"

"This... it seems not..."

Nihon music in this era hadn't reached the point of being world-famous, only famous in Asia, and even J-pop was just a prototype.

By the bubble era, Nihon's economic strength reached its peak, pure music and electronic music started to exert force, and then to the characteristic city pop and the subsequent ACG culture, Nihon music finally had fame in the world.

Otomo Fangcun stopped talking when he heard this... After all, such an activity that looked very influential actually didn't have Nihon's participation... It always felt like being a head shorter in national self-confidence.

Shuichi Yin Tang stared at the screen carefully:

"There are too many people... Both venues are probably close to 100,000, right?"

"Shuichi-san, do you think Tokyo's concert can reach this scale?" Otomo Fangcun suddenly became curious.

"Impossible!" Shuichi Yin Tang shook his head immediately, "Even if we want to hold it, there is no such large venue currently..."

Even the Budokan can only hold more than 10,000 people~

"Unless it's the Tokyo Olympic Main Stadium..." Otomo Fangcun thought of the Olympics held before, "But probably not that many people will go to see it..."

In this era, there are very few super singers who can attract so many people, and it is very good to be able to support a concert of tens of thousands of people~

Perhaps only Michael Jackson could attract more than 100,000 people alone.

After the two chatted about the concert for a while, Shuichi Yin Tang continued:

"Is Naoki-san coming back after the concert?"

"Didn't he say he was going to New York? For investment..." Otomo Fangcun replied, "This guy, once he goes abroad, he will play for at least half a month!"

"Hahaha, that's true!"

Shuichi Yin Tang laughed.

The TV screen was still broadcasting the noisy concert. It was a pity that the two people watching had no research on rock music, and even English only knew a few simple dialogues.

To them, the singers on stage were probably singing heavenly books... They couldn't understand anything.

With a click, Otomo Fangcun decisively turned off the power of the TV and said to Shuichi Yin Tang:

"Shuichi-san, call the mama-san over, let her arrange more young ladies... Let's have a good drink today! Relax!"

Shuichi Yin Tang also laughed heartily:

"Okay, I've been filming movies in Ota Ward these days, and the weather is hot... I'm exhausted!"

"Haha, then let's drink some ice wine!"

Just like that, the two greasy old men immediately abandoned rock music and threw themselves into the seductive music of the young ladies.

When immersed in a concert, time flies, especially in such a big scene.

"

Don't you forget about me

Don't don't don't don't

Don't you forget about me

"

Akina Nakamori followed Simple Minds on stage singing the chorus of "Don't You (Forget About Me)", her head shaking with the music nodes, and her whole body swaying with the music...

The people around were also echoing the lead singer's voice, as if they were about to talk to a lover~

This song has simple lyrics, it should be a song Akina has heard!

Just at the end, Akina suddenly turned her body, pulling Naoki Nagayama's arm and swaying with the music, singing happily in her mouth:

"~~Don't you forget about me~~"

"~When you walk on by~"

"Will you call my name?"

Her eyes were still thinking about singing with Naoki Nagayama, not at all shy in front of everyone in private...

It seems that her girlfriend has completely integrated into the atmosphere of the entire venue~

"Naoki-san, what time is it now?"

The song ended, Akina Nakamori sat down, wiping the sweat on her forehead quite roughly, drinking cola with ice cubes~

"Almost 3:00~" Naoki Nagayama looked at the Rolex on his wrist and said.

"Has it been four or five hours already?" Akina Nakamori said in surprise, "Have we been in the concert for so long?!"

"Yeah, such a high atmosphere, time passes quickly..."

Naoki Nagayama looked at the vendor walking through the aisle: "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

Akina Nakamori touched her stomach. Even though the weather was hot, she had been at the concert for so long, and the cake she ate in the morning had naturally been digested...

"What is there to eat?" Akina Nakamori looked over.

Naoki Nagayama signaled the vendor to come over. There were only simple hot dog buns in the small box, and some chocolates, etc... After paying readily, the two rested while listening to the cheering atmosphere in the field.

"When will this concert end?"

"Probably until midnight~" Naoki Nagayama said, "16 hours!"

"So long..." Akina Nakamori looked at the people in the stadium and asked subconsciously, "Will these fans watch until the end?"

"Hard to say..."

Naoki Nagayama also looked around. The fans around were also a little tired, but in the atmosphere of the entire venue, they still looked very excited.

However, it is impossible to be excited for more than ten hours, even the best military stimulants can't do it!

"Akina... let's get ready to leave in the evening!"

Leaving early is naturally allowed. Princess Diana and Prince Charles in the UK venue only stayed for a while at the opening and then left~

In fact, many people are just fans of a few singers, and they only came to participate in this concert for a few singers, and some people have already left.

"Okay!" Akina Nakamori ate the bun and looked at Naoki Nagayama, "Naoki-san, are you waiting for Madonna's performance?"

"Yeah... Madonna is in the evening..."

Actually, Naoki Nagayama didn't have the idea of joining in, but until later generations, Madonna's fame was also very high, and he just didn't want to miss this concert.

"Naoki-san..." Akina Nakamori leaned over and said with a smile, "Are you on good terms with Madonna?"

"Met once, I'm friends with her ex-boyfriend~"

Naoki Nagayama didn't know many people in the United States, Madonna could be considered to have met once... but they hadn't been in contact for several years, and Madonna should have long forgotten the Asian person she only met once.

On the contrary, her ex-boyfriend, Basquiat, the two would occasionally send a letter... draw a graffiti or something~

"Haha, ex-boyfriend..." Akina Nakamori laughed again.

Yeah, ex-boyfriend...

Madonna's music career went smoothly, she became more and more famous, and her work became busier and busier... Although Basquiat was also a well-known graffiti artist, the gap between the two was already obvious.

Generally speaking, for lovers who start from scratch, if the man's career develops better and better, the possibility of this relationship continuing will be greater, on the contrary... if the woman's career becomes bigger and bigger, this relationship will likely fail.

So... Madonna and Basquiat had long broken up~

"Then is Naoki-san going to see that ex-boyfriend when you go to New York later?"

"Depends on the time... maybe the itinerary won't match..." Naoki Nagayama shrugged~

Time passed slowly, and soon it was time for the fiery clouds to fill the sky.

At this time, Madonna finally stepped onto the stage...

The twenty-seven-year-old Madonna was full of youth, swinging her red hair, full of vitality on the stage... Having just experienced the indecent photo incident, she said rebellious lines in the 35-degree weather:

"No matter what, I won't take off any clothes today!"

"

It's time for the good times

Forget about the bad times

oh yeah

"

Then holding a red hand bell, Madonna swung her vitality on the stage, turning this concert into her own special show.

Akina Nakamori looked at the music diva on the stage, and there was also a longing light in her eyes.

In her own concert, it seems that she can also have more such vitality on stage...

A little more casual play, a little less routine dance moves...

Before, Akina Nakamori's performances were mostly dancing while singing, with dance and song equally important.

But perhaps due to previous stereotypes, this form was a bit more biased towards idol performance style~

Real pop kings and queens do have rehearsals and performances, but they are not all routine... Appropriate free play will create an incredible chemical reaction between the stage and the audience, taking the concert to the next level.

That kind of casual arrangement, the ability to control the stage at will, might be the direction Akina needs to work hard in the future.

After the sky went dark, the big screen of the Feicheng Kennedy Stadium suddenly came with impressive piano sounds...

"mama....... just killed a man~"

Naoki Nagayama stood up excitedly again, "Bohemian Rhapsody"... Queen's time has come!

Actually, at the beginning, Naoki Nagayama wanted to go to the London venue in the UK... After all, that was where Queen's most glorious performance was.

In his previous life, he knew about this LIVE AID concert, and he also saw Queen's performance on various video websites.

But after comprehensive consideration, he decided to come to Feicheng, USA... After all, he knew more about American stars, and he had things to do later, and taking another ten-plus-hour flight was too tiring.

"Queen!!"

Naoki Nagayama's excitement also made Akina Nakamori curious, and she started watching the performance on the big screen together...

The lead singer Freddie Mercury, wearing white trousers and a white T-shirt, looked like some kind of hooligan, but changed his appearance as soon as he sat in front of the piano...

When singing "Bohemian Rhapsody" while playing the piano, the emotional voice made the audience under the stage couldn't help but sing along with him~

"mama....... just killed a man....."

"Mama, ooh, didn't mean to make you cry....."

"......."

In the chorus of the whole field, it seemed that everyone had shot and killed a person, immersed in the remorse of crime...

One song ended...

"Boom boom clap" "Boom boom clap" "Boom boom clap"

Two stomps, one clap... the familiar and shocking rhythm sounded.

"

We will, we will rock you

We will, we will rock you

"

During "We Will Rock You", countless fans stomped their feet, clapped their hands, and rocked the whole world with Queen on stage. The resonance caused even the steps on the second floor of the stadium to shake significantly, but no one was worried...

The familiar "We Are The Champions" that followed was even more suitable for the fans' chorus,

"

We are the champions my friends

And we'll keep on fighting till the end

No time for losers

Cause we are the champions

"

The atmosphere of the entire stadium was stirred up again! ===== CHAPTER 870 =====
