September 12, 1987 was the first day of the world premiere of the "BAD" tour concert held by the King of Pop Michael Jackson at Korakuen Stadium in Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo, Japan.

On that day, the entire Korakuen Stadium was guarded by 100 police officers, 200 guards and 300 part-time personnel.

In front of the stadium, not only was a signboard "MICHAEL JACKSON with NTT" erected, but there was also a dazzling array of peripheral products.

The Michael photo poster calendar sells for 2,000 yen, handkerchiefs and stickers for 300 yen, T-shirts for 2,500 yen, and sneakers for 3,000 yen.

Although the price is not cheap, it still caused fans to rush to buy it, which shows how popular and sought-after Michael is.

After the performance started, Michael appeared in black and white like a black panther.

He didn't even say a word, just the prelude of the music started, and he just waved to the audience a few times, and it immediately set the whole place ablaze.

There were 45,000 people in the audience that day, and the warm atmosphere that made the fans shout wildly was really shocking.

Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko were also among them.

They were accompanied by two staff members from the Matsumoto Office and watched the entire performance from a relatively front seat.

Although the ticket price is high, their VIP seats are as high as 180,000 yen each, and the total cost for four people is more than 700,000 yen.

But in the following performance, Michael's energetic and wonderful performance not only caused the Japanese audience, which was generally calm and gentle at the time, to erupt into unprecedented large-scale hysteria, but even Ning Weimin, who had insights beyond his times, would still be amazed.

.

It can be said that Michael Jackson used his singing, dancing and stunning stage layout to allow all the audience to enjoy a world-class audio-visual feast.

Not only did Ning Weimin not feel that the money was wasted at all, he even believed that in the field of pop music, Michael Jackson was a well-deserved time traveler.

As for the Japanese media calling this premiere "Michael Typhoon" and defining MJ's performance as "the greatest performance ever on earth", it is not an exaggeration at all.

Because the more you are at the scene, the more you can empathize with such comments.

Maybe this is the charm of the "King of Pop".

After all, there is only one Michael Jackson in the world of pop music.

In terms of popular singing and dancing, no one can compare with him. He is the king who will always be at the top.

The only pity is that this premiere only lasted ninety-seven minutes, which was somewhat unenjoyable.

When the last song ended, all the fans present, including Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko, were reluctant to leave.

However, through their relationship with Saburo Hirohei, who holds a senior position in PolyGram, Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko are far luckier than ordinary viewers.

As a few people who enjoyed privileges, they were led backstage by the staff who organized the performance to meet the "Little Black Panther" who had just come off the stage.

What surprised Ning Weimin the most was that Michael was actually a very tall person. Before he saw him with his own eyes, he had always thought that Michael was like a big child, only about 1.75 meters tall.

Unexpectedly, the real "King of Pop" is 1.8 meters tall and has the big hands of a baseball catcher.

Especially the attitude, it is quite cordial.

I don’t know whether it’s because he is too dedicated and has excellent artistic ethics, or because he has a pure and kind personality, like a child.

When Michael Jackson saw them, he showed no pretense at all and acted very friendly, even taking the initiative to hug them.

This friendly act goes far beyond the ordinary definition of "kindness".

Then they chatted briefly, and Michael took the initiative to give them signed CDs and took photos with them.

As for the gift Ning Weimin brought to Michael, it was a Peking Opera silk figure from the capital - Sun Wukong.

And this gift from China, full of the sentiments of the ancient oriental country, also made Michael particularly surprised.

After he learned that Ning Weimin was a Chinese and not a Japanese, he not only curiously asked some specific information about the ancient oriental country, but also asked someone to bring two boxes of candies to them as extra gifts.

This somewhat made Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko dumbfounded.

It seems that this person probably treats them like children.

However, there is a saying. In fact, the moment that made Ning Weimin fall in love with this "most successful artist" the most was not when he met him in person, but when he saw a piece of news about him after the meeting.

time.

For no other reason than because a few days later, when Michael's team moved to Yokohama to perform, something "unexpected" happened at the end of the performance.

Dare to love Michael came up with new ideas to increase interaction with fans.

He wanted more fans to fully understand himself outside of his works, so he told fans at the scene that they could ask him questions and he would answer them "with all his heart".

This idea was originally out of good intentions, but he didn't expect that huge "malice" was waiting for him ahead.

There was a Japanese tabloid reporter at the scene who didn't hold anything back after hearing Michael Jackson's new idea.

When he tried hard to get a chance to ask questions, he actually asked, "You have toured so many countries, why didn't you go to China?"

The scene was extremely quiet when the problem occurred.

Especially for concerts in Japan, many foreign fans from surrounding countries come here just to see Michael Jackson. Many Chinese are even more dissatisfied with this, because everyone can hear the sensitivity and existence of this issue.

The meaning of provocation.

This guy who asked the question rashly just wanted Michael Jackson to answer some unfavorable remarks about China and make a big news by the way.

However, this Japanese reporter with ulterior motives was in vain.

He did not expect that in the face of his malicious provocation, Michael Jackson, instead of being timid or shrinking, showed amazing quickness, using the most sincere language and the calmest attitude to tell the facts recognized by the whole world.

Michael stood on the stage and asked him, "Why haven't I been to China? I've already held a concert in 'Treasure Island' before?"

As soon as this statement came out, the audience immediately burst into thunderous applause and cheers.

Yes, 'Treasure Island' is part of China, so there is nothing wrong with this sentence.

But for the Japanese reporter who wanted to provoke conflicts between the two countries, not only did his ultimate goal not be achieved, but many in the audience complained about him.

Afterwards, many fans complained to other reporters, saying that the guy who deliberately ruined the atmosphere was terrible.

So Ning Weimin was quite pleased when he saw this news in the newspaper.

Well done Michael!

He couldn't imagine the expression on the sinister Japanese reporter's face after hearing Michael's answer.

Maybe it's disappointment, or maybe it's just that the mute can't explain the pain of eating Coptis chinensis.

But no matter which one it is, it will make people feel extremely comfortable.

As for Michael Jackson, Ning Weimin's already existing good impression took a step further.

Even though he may look like a Yankee, this star is really worthy of the expectations of fans all over the world.

Whether it is his career achievements or his character, he is worthy of the words "Emperor Superstar".

In addition, regarding the concert, it needs to be mentioned that this time Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko were able to meet Michael Jackson backstage. This favor was not in vain.

The main reason why Hirohira Saburo took the initiative to use his personal connections to seek this benefit for Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko was that after repeated consideration, he accepted Ning Weimin's second proposal.

Hirohei Saburo finally decided to transfer 60% of the Taurus shares in his name to Matsumoto Keiko for a price of 3 billion yen.

And Ning Weimin did fulfill his original promise. After completing the share transfer procedures, he paid the full amount on the spot.

For Sanlang Guanghei, such uncompromising pride not only effectively dispelled the rumors about the lack of funds of Fog Film Studio, but also allowed him to fully appreciate Ning Weimin's credibility and resolute execution ability.

So regarding the battle between Fog Studio and the Combustion Department, Hirohei Saburo has begun to be optimistic about Fog Studio.

No longer did he say things he didn't mean when he first met Ning Weimin, and he was just being polite.

Especially later, Hirohei Saburo learned from Minoru Funaki that Ning Weimin had quickly transferred one billion yen to the account of Taurus Palace and asked Minoru Funaki to use it as funds to expand the scale of Taurus Palace.

At the same time, he also ordered Taurus Palace to change Teresa Teng's commission ratio and proactively increase Teresa Teng's share from the original 40% to 60%.

For such financial resources and such behavior, Saburo Hirohei was even more horrified and couldn't help but stand in awe.

Including acquisitions and capital injections, a total of 5.5 billion yen was spent happily!

With such strong financial resources, Fog Studios can rival PolyGram Records.

Especially if he is willing to take the initiative to give such generous benefits to artists, even PolyGram would not be able to do that.

Now it seems that my decision was too wise. This guy really didn't mean what he said. If you compete with him for Teresa, you will only lose.

Therefore, even if the share delivery has been completed, Hirohei Saburo is still very willing to keep in touch with Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko and maintain a good relationship.

Who doesn’t want to make friends with a rich man?

Especially a rich man who is so generous and keeps his word.

So when I heard that they were going to a concert, Saburo Hirohei took the initiative to provide them with some conveniences within his ability, which was a natural thing.

Not to mention this, Ning Weimin soon did something that Guangping Saburo admired deeply.

At this special moment when facing foreign enemies, in order to ensure the stability of Taurus, try not to bring Taurus into the center of conflicts.

Not only did Ning Weimin have no intention of announcing to the employees of Taurus Palace that the company's shareholders had been replaced, he instead asked Minoru Funaki to keep this secret as much as possible.

According to Ning Weimin, it would be most beneficial to them not to let the Burning Element know about this matter, or even have the effect of underestimating the enemy.

Don't be anxious if you want to fight back. A surprise backstab is the most lethal revenge.

For this reason, Guanghei Saburo was even more surprised and believed that Ning Weimin definitely had the potential to do great things.

Because usually, investors who buy a company can't resist the temptation of vanity and want to show off in front of their new subordinates.
