In the past, we chased Japanese dramas and Korean dramas, and the characters in them all impressed us. At that time, we always felt that the outside world was so wonderful, handsome men and women were beautiful, let us Ha DC salivation ~
However, in recent years, with the rapid development of China's performing arts market, more and more domestic high-quality variety shows, movies and television series have come into being, creating an unprecedented prosperity in China's performing arts market! It is precisely because of the huge potential of China's performing arts market that more and more foreign artists are attracted to China for development.
Recently, the Japanese media reported on a large scale that Akanishi Ren, who had been a mess in the Fire of Japan, had an annual income of at least 300 million yen or more after going to China for development, which made a lot of Japanese people lose their jaws!
In early November, the Japanese media rarely photographed Akanishi Ren, who had been performing arts abroad, appear in Japan. After leaving a modest building in Tokyo, Akanishi, who was dressed casually at the time, rushed to the private car that had been waiting in the parking lot with her daughter's belongings in one hand and her daughter in the other.
Akanishi Ren, who appeared in the Japanese media footage, interacted with his daughter with love, and from time to time looked at her daughter and smiled like an old father. Then the camera pans, and when the car door opens, you can see Akanishi's wife, Kurome Akira, and her eldest son sitting in the back seat of the car waiting. After Akashi and his daughter boarded the bus, the family drove to a premium membership club in Tokyo.
It is said that after Akanishi Ren officially withdrew from The Janis affairs at the end of February 2014, it has been 6 years since he unconsciously came, and now Akanishi Ren is no longer the hairy boy he was, but a super celebrity with a private driver in and out, which also makes the Japanese media focus on his overseas acting career.
In fact, when it comes to Akanishi, when he was still in the Janis office, he had already set his sights on a more promising overseas market. In July 2010, due to the different orientation of his acting career, Akanishi officially retired from KAT-TUN and flew solo, and in October of that year, he held a tour called "Yellow Gold Tour 3010" in five places in the United States. He also joined Warner Records in December of the same year, becoming the second Japanese SOLO artist after Nagayoshi Yazawa to sign a global contract with the Warner family.
In 2014, when Akanishi's contract with Janis expired in March, an agreement was reached not to renew the contract, and Akashi finally repeated his free reinvention and began to focus on overseas performing arts, and he immediately set his sights on the Chinese market after independence. In September 2014, Akashi made his debut at the Shanghai Music Festival and the following year set the first stop of the concert in Shanghai. Since then, he has also held a number of concerts in China, in addition to challenging the small screen, and starred in the Chinese TV series "Big Splash Monkey" in 2017.
A wave of operations has attracted more and more attention from Chinese fans. As a result, the number of weibo fans exploded to 2.8 million, and according to Japanese media reports, in 2018, Akanishi Ren earned as much as 300 million yen (18 million yuan) in income from Chinese companies and activities alone. This has also allowed the Japanese media to re-recognize the Chinese market.
After all, it is rare to get such a rich income by relying on corporate activities alone in the current Japanese market, which makes people lament the strong gold absorption ability of the Chinese market. At present, Akanishi Ren has properly entered the rich class in Japan by relying on the overseas market, and just recently bought a mansion in Hawaii for the education of his children, just to let his children go to summer school!
Smelling the business opportunities in the Chinese market is also Ryo Kushido, who also belonged to the Janis firm, and after Ryo Kamikoji left the Janis office in September this year, the two reached an alliance agreement under the persuasion of Akashihito. In order to help Ryo Satoshi carry out his Chinese cause, Akanishi Ren even shared with Ryo Kushito to accompany him all the way to success, so that the outside world has said that the two are actually the rhythm of integration, and it is estimated that the two will soon see the scene of the two standing together on the stage again.
At present, Jindo Liang has also opened a Weibo in China, and its fans have exceeded 200,000 in less than 2 months.
In this regard, Japanese media described Akashihito as having seized the opportunity and successfully entered the fantastic Chinese market with 1.3 billion people. And set out to establish its own "Akanishi Army", and perhaps even become a "legendary" figure in the Japanese performing arts industry in the future.
However, it may be very puzzling to see many friends here, after all, 300 million yen (18 million yuan) can be said to be strange in China's showbiz circle. In order to understand the confusion, let's take a look at the income ranking of Japanese artists and you will know why...
The picture above is the list of the highest-paid artists in Japan, and the income indicated in this list is not annual income, but career income, that is, the entire income of the artist's entire acting career from the beginning of entering the Japanese showbiz circle. The highest was Tetsuya Komuro's 9,662.7 million yen (40 years of artistic career), which translates to an average annual income of 240 million yen. You know, he is a godfather of music in Japan! Looking at Akanishi Ren, the income from activities in China last year alone reached 300 million yen, so it is no wonder that the Japanese media is so fussy...
