The Rainbow Bridge connecting the Shibaura and Odaiba areas in the Minato City is literally lit up with colorful lights and stretches over the quiet flowing Sumida River. ?August 1 Middle School??Wen W ㈠W?W?. (A) 81 ZW. COM
The house-shaped boats in twos and threes are covered with red lanterns on the cornices, reflecting the other boats in the water, as if they are still on the water in pairs.
In stark contrast to this quiet night, in the No. 1 studio hall of Mount Fuji TV in Odaiba, the crowd was crowded and the stars gathered on the stage, which opened the prelude to the TV station's 60th anniversary celebration.
The director stared nervously at the monitoring screen at the scene, and looked at the watch on his wrist from time to time. In five minutes, he would switch to the marathon running ceremony on the location.
The most talked about part of this program - "One Person's Marathon", although it is declared a "half marathon", it should be regarded as a "half city marathon". The main purpose is not to see if the marathon runners are How many blocks to run and what records to set, but let the stars who participated in the running run for almost 20 hours! From a certain point of view, this is like a ritual practiced in the art world, with more significance than form.
Usually in the first third of the twenty-four hours, the runner is allowed to walk alone in the dark, symbolizing his or her determination and perseverance to accumulate knowledge and bear the burden in the long preparation stage . In the daytime stage of the second day, the general public along the street are all watching the artist running, which symbolizes that he (she) is beginning to attract the attention of the world and accept everyone's supervision; The finish line is usually set at the main live broadcast venue. The marathon runner has gone through countless hardships and finally crossed the finish line, fulfilled his promise, and achieved a positive result. He (she) will win the respect and recognition of all the seniors, juniors and newcomers in the entertainment industry. , so that you can gain a firm foothold in the entertainment industry and open up a new world! After that, various sponsors and media will also give priority to sending advertisements and announcements to him or her. After all, in the popularity index of the star, the marathon runner will definitely be improved, which is also repeatedly rejected by the advertising market. And the response from the ratings attests to it.
So if you can be selected to participate in this "marathon" in a year, it is simply the biggest opportunity for an entertainer! It will be branded and labelled "definitely red"!
This year, new male artist Shunsuke Kitahara has this opportunity firmly in his hands! Of course, as for how and by what means? No one else will know!
He is doing his final preparations at the moment, waiting for the director to cut the signal to the starting spot!
Hey! Come on, the entertainment industry will be my era!
Kitahara Shunsuke couldn't help but feel a little smug in his heart, but when the night wind blew in the late spring, he couldn't help shivering. It's a pity that it's a big night now, and the program team about the running route of the marathon will keep it secret from the outside world until the last minute, so in the early morning of the next day, I can only run to warm up.
"Then, let's have the handsome guy Shunsuke Kitahara who is waiting on the set! I can't wait to see the handsome guy running the marathon!" The host of the main venue agreed in advance. The lines were shouted loudly into the microphone.
The director just waited for the host to say this sentence as a code word, and immediately pressed the button to switch the broadcast line.
The big screen at the main venue immediately showed Shunsuke Kitahara, who was moving his hands and feet. He smiled and greeted the camera with a sunny face, as if he was in a good mood.
The host of the location briefed the main venue on the current situation in Beiyuan, as well as the current temperature, humidity, wind and weather conditions.
The host of the main venue asked the host of the location to hand the microphone to Beiyuan's mouth and wanted to connect with him.
"Kitahara-san, you've worked hard! How are you preparing?"
"Are you asking about running or the future of acting? I'm all right!" Kitahara Shunsuke maintained his signature smile, and turned his brightest face to the camera.
"As expected of Shunsuke Kitahara! It's full of confidence and vigor! We have reason to believe that Kitahara-san will definitely bring you a unique marathon experience! Well, come on!"
Shunsuke Kitahara stretched out his thumbs with both hands towards the camera, his brighter smile even made his white teeth flash with light!
"Everyone, get ready--run!" With an order from a well-respected movie star, Beiyuan rushed out like a chicken blood, which was comparable to a 100-meter sprint!
Not far behind him, the fitness coach equipped by the program team and his own team ran with him—the driver Sakashita Tosho and the gray-haired middle-aged man that day followed him carefully.
The camera car also moved slowly and fixed the lens at a forty-five-degree angle diagonally opposite Shunsuke Kitahara. In the camera, Beiyuan looked relaxed, but his smile never disappeared!
At the main venue, the host, the guests and the audience watched the pictures of the marathon runners coming back from the scene. The big screen suddenly displayed several headlines: Where is this year?
This is also a necessary part of the live broadcast every year. The host receives answers from the audience inside and outside the venue to guess this year's route through the street scene behind the runners.
The fax machine at the scene began to print out the fax sheets it received, and the hotline also kept on answering.
When the host checked it at random, some guessed "Ginza", some guessed "Shibuya", some guessed "Shinjuku", and some guessed "Asakusa"...
Although the visibility at night is limited and the night mode of the photography screen also increases the difficulty of guessing, everyone is making their own judgments from the clues on the screen.
The audience participation was very positive, because if you guessed correctly and read it out by the host, there is a chance of winning a lot of money!

Just as the host smiled meaningfully and was about to lower the bonus amount to give more hints, someone in the fax group raised their hand to signal that they had received a different answer than before.
The host took the A4 piece of paper and almost threw it away after only one glance: Is it stupid? How could someone guess the answer so hard?
He was a little worried, and looked at the memory card in his hand carefully until he confirmed that the answer on the A4 paper was this year's answer, and he loudly announced to the TV camera: "Where is this year?" The prize quiz has appeared for the first audience to guess! He will receive a grand prize of 600,000 yen provided by Mt. Fuji TV!
Wow——
There was a sigh of envy and disappointment under the stage and in front of the TV. Although there are still opportunities in the future, the prize money will be reduced a lot after all!
But where exactly is the course for this year's marathon?
