The little friends of the mixed day entertainment must know the Janis J family.
The originator of the "Cultivating Idols" and the Japanese Idol Empire. Most of the Japanese male stars you can name today are from the J family.
Among them, Takki Takizawa Hideaki can be regarded as the most special one.
Bad childhood, peerless beauty, from passers-by to popular idols, and then to the domineering president of the J family today...
Ah, mom, this is not the script of the male protagonist of Tianya Shuangwen.
01
Many people first met Hideaki Takizawa because of the Japanese drama "The Condition of the Witch".
The "beautiful boy under the cherry blossom tree".
"The Condition of the Witch" can be described as a classic drama of Japan's "Forbidden Love", teacher-student love + sister-brother love, with a rating of 29.5%!
At that time, Matsushima Naoko and Hideaki Takizawa were both gods!
Takki, who was only 17 years old at the time, perfectly interpreted what a beautiful teenager was, like a beautiful man who came out of the comic, beautiful and sunny, with red lips and white teeth, which surprised the time.
02
Takizawa entered the show business at the age of 13, not to pursue his dreams, but to survive.
Hideaki Takizawa was born on March 29, 1982 in Hachioji, Tokyo, Japan, with an older sister and an older brother.
When he was a child, Takki was very cute and very cute.
But when he was in kindergarten, his parents divorced. After that, the mother raised 3 children alone, and life was extremely difficult.
Takki recalls that when he was a student, because he didn't have money to buy eraser pencils, he went to the classroom to pick up what others had thrown away and used it.
In the winter, because I can't afford to buy thick clothes, I wear a tank top and shorts to school.
Meals are often not enough, often made with water and wheat flour (a bit like Osaka yaki), and eaten with ketchup.
It is said that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early. So, Takki has been thinking about how to make money since he was a child.
On April 23, 1995, at the age of 13, Hideaki Takizawa officially joined the J family as an intern (Jr.).
Takki, who lacked fatherly love since childhood, also treated Kitagawa as a father and was grateful.
Two weeks after joining the company, Takki took to the stage for the first time to dance for his idol Kinkikids concert.
Over the next 3 years, Takki, like other Jr., began the J family's ancestral "human flesh background".
Occasionally, he also starred in some small supporting roles in Japanese dramas, and once had a dilemma of 47 NG shots, but he persevered.
Until 1998, the 16-year-old Takki starred in "Newsgirl" and played against the "national goddess" Nanami Suzuki.
In the face of a large number of big names, the fledgling Takki performance is not inferior, and he also won the first acting award in his life with this drama - the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
This was followed by the popular "Conditions of the Witch", which directly sent Takki to the altar. In addition to her beautiful face, Taakki also has a mature and cool temperament that is beyond her peers.
At that time, Takki's appearance was really too great, and it was really a lifetime of Takizawa's mistake at first sight.
Seriously, at the peak of his popularity, he did not lose at all to his brother Takuya Kimura.
In 2000, at the age of 18, Hideaki Takizawa won the 25th Japanese Drama Academy Award for Best Actor for "The Sun Doesn't Sink", and became the youngest person in the J family to win the award.
In 2005, Takki, who was only 23 years old, and Shiyuanmei paper starred in the Dahe drama "Yijing", gentle and elegant, and Gongzi Ruyu, which made his momentum climb to the peak and became the youngest starring dahe drama at that time.
03
However, as a somewhat old J-Rice, he likes takki not only because of his beauty and acting skills, but also because he brought out the "Golden Generation Jr."!
In fact, there are many versions of the division of the "golden generation" of the J family, and it is impossible to verify it now.
The Japanese encyclopedia is about the Jr. of the 90s.
By default, there are: Higashi Takizawa West Shibuya, Arashi Goto, 4tops (Tomohisa Yamashita, Toshima Ikuta, Shunsuke Kazema, Jun Hasegawa), sekihachi (Shingo Murakami, Hiroshi Yokoyama, Akira Shibuya).
There is also Hiroki Ohara, Jun Akiyama, and Tsuyoshi Kawaka...
▍And takki is the "Golden Generation Jr." Leader, a fabulous presence.
At that time, the president of the J family, Kitagawa, was extremely fond of Takki.
The old man has never been married in his life, has no children under his knees, and almost takes Takki as a son and an heir, not only teaching him the principle of doing things, but also taking him in and out of various important occasions.
Takki's abilities are also very strong, and despite his young age, both businessmen are very high and will soon be able to stand on their own.
In 1999, at the age of 17, Hideaki Takizawa was officially appointed as Jr.'s team leader, managing more than 100 Jr., including Arashi, Seki 8, Tomohisa Yamashita, and Doujin Ikuta.
04
After becoming Jr. team leader, takki started the side business of "milking children".
From acting skills, to washing and cleaning, sorting out housework, and even occasionally helping Kitagawa to take charge of interviews...
Even then he was a 17-year-old.
Solo planning concerts, organizing various promotional activities, taking Jr. to the show, never made a mistake.
▍ In everyone's heart, takki exists like an "old father".
When Kazuya Ninomiya first debuted, she stayed at Takki's house when she had everything and everything.
Masaki Aoba is also his super fan, and the first thing he thinks about after getting his driver's license is to find a takki for a ride.
The ten proverbs that Takki wrote for Matsumoto are still treasured in Matsumoto's wallet.
When Tomohisa Yamashita was a child, he was also called Hideaki Takizawa PAPA, and even the nickname YamaP was given to him by Takki.
Takki also always recommends Mountain P to others, so that he receives more attention.
Takki did not live up to the high hopes placed on Himkai.
A group of teenage children, who have not yet officially debuted, can have three title programs in the tv station's prime file!
Concerts were also held at the Three Domes of Japan and Chinese Taipei.
This group of Jr., led by him, after their debuts, can also be called a mythical existence in the Japanese entertainment industry.
It can be said that they fought for the J family to create a prosperous and flashy.
In the eyes of fans, takki values "milk children" more than his own career.
Even, delayed his official debut.
It was not until 2002 that Takki and Imai Wing, who joined the company on the same day, formed the duo Taki & Wing and officially debuted.
At that time, Arashi had been debuting for 3 years.
05
In fact, as an "artist", takki has not been popular for a long time.
Because he gradually shifted the focus of his work to stage plays with small audiences and weaker influence, and this was also to inherit the ideal of Kitagawa's grandfather - to create the Broadway of the East.
In 2004, the old man also personally tailored the stage play "Dream Boy" for Takki.
It is said that because there will be dangerous actions during the performance, the old man also invested a huge insurance of 200 million yen for him, which is also the first time that the J family has invested.
Since then, Takki has been directing and starring in stage plays.
He also showed his strong leadership and stage planning, managing more than 200 people in front of and behind the scenes.
In 2015, Hideaki Takizawa also led the "Takizawa Kabuki" team to achieve the first time in the World Stage Play, performing in Singapore.
Sure enough, capable people are sparkling everywhere.
06
In 2018, Taki & Wing was officially disbanded.
And Takki also announced that he would bid farewell to the entertainment industry and retire behind the scenes.
Takki says he retires not because he hates the artist's job, but because he likes Janis. He wants to inherit President Kitagawa's intentions and become a stage producer, manage and nurture Jr.
Before Takki retired, it was broadcast from 1998 to 1999, and the Jr.-based variety show "8 O'Clock J" was revived overnight after a gap of 20 years.
The former "Golden Generation" gathered again, for the first and last time.
It also left fans with tears of the times!
07
No longer the entertainer Takki, but the real domineering Mingzong!
In 2019, Kitagawa personally appointed Takki as the president of Johnny's Island, a newly established subsidiary of Janis, responsible for cultivating and mining new talents.
In this way, the idol Hua Meinan, who was once popular all over Asia, became the most handsome president and overbearing president!
▍It seems to be smooth sailing, but in fact, Takki is not easy along the way.
Although it is a family business, the factional struggle of the J family is quite serious.
In the early years, the two major factions fought each other to the death, and even led to the dissolution of the Tiantuan SMAP.
And Kitagawa has always belonged to the "neutral faction".
On July 9, 2019, Kitagawa passed away due to illness at the age of 87. In September of the same year, Hideaki Takizawa officially became the vice president of the entire J Family Office.
At this time, the J family has long been inferior to that year, which can be said to be choppy.
Its artists were exposed to scandals one after another, withdrew from the society, and disbanded one day after another.
Takki's appointment is more like a peril, as a foreigner, taking over the burden of Kitagawa's grandfather at a time of internal and external troubles, and fighting against the internal and external struggles of the flood beasts.
08
Takki has been working very hard to manage the Janis office.
In particular, the misconduct of artists will be severely punished and will not be tolerated.
Even if the "kissing son" of his own grandmother makes a mistake, he will never be soft.
Last year, the leader of the idol group Snow Man, which was created by Takki himself, was directly terminated from all acting activities because he drank with minors.
It is said that before he officially took office, he drafted a "blacklist of discipline" listing artists who had a bad impact on the company.
Among them are the retired Tetsukoshi Yuya, Ryo Nishikido...
In Takki's view, before being idols, Jr. should be more responsible for their actions as a responsible man.
▍After taking office, he also began to carry out drastic reforms.
In addition, under the leadership of Taakki, the always conservative J family finally "passed the net" and unbanned the portrait protection rights of their own artists, although the media can only publish a maximum of 3 photos, but fans no longer have to look at the silhouette to recognize people!
There is also the "22-year-old retirement system" that the J family will implement.
For Jr. who has not debuted after reaching the age of 22, if the company and Jr. cannot reach an agreement, the two parties may terminate the contract at any time.
This system also means that many Jr. will not be able to debut, causing many dissatisfaction.
But Takki said companies need to be accountable to children, which is why there is such a system reform. Most people can't become stars, and instead of wasting limited time, it is better to seriously consider the rest of life.
Whether it is Captain Jr. at the time or president of the J family today, Takki's leadership is obvious to all.
Fading the youth of his youth, he became the president of the real domineering!
