NEWS COMING! Ayu will arrive in Shanghai at the noon of Thursday!
 

yeah, ayu will arrive at Pudong International Airport at around 12 0'clock (time of peking), Thursday.

BUT! what is worrying is that AYUCHINA HASN"T organized the welcome well...actually no such activities! a lot of shanghai fans complain the time that ayu arrives, because there are a lot of exams recently which cannot be easily skipped.

Damn! people, I, for example, will arrive in shanghai in the morning of 21st.
and there are a lot people just like me...china is soooo large, it's so so so difficult to gather people from every corner of the country.

what i'm caring about is what the media will say if there are few people waiting for ayu in the airport. maybe: Great stars arrives, few fans waiting...the number of her bodyguards is even bigger than that of the fans...blah blah blah...

i hope ayuchina will cope with this.

YEAH!! Bet if its Sg, the tix would be sold out within 1 hour! I really hope it would be a big thing in Shanghai... *Abit off topic* But just wondering, do the Chinese still hate Japanese that much nowadays coz Zao Wei's case few years back...

but, cant really blame them for choosing China instead of Sg. China is BIG piece of fat meat while Singapore is soooooo small till cant even be seen on map.

Let's hope for the best for AYU!

Means there should be some media coverage in the morning papers on Friday...

Well, the hypernationalist Chinese people still do. Which is unfortunately quite a lot of people.

You guys can believe what you want to believe.

thanks for that info.

I wonder just why they chose Shanghai.. :|

thanks for the info!

Shanghai has the best xiao long bao:eating - which Ayu ordered 50 when she was in Hong Kong.

Shanghai is one of the most famous cities of China for the Japanese, which is often romanticized in film, music, literature, etc. Ex: "Shanghai Honey" by Orange Range. :lech, a film starring Tsukamoto Takashi and Zhao Wei called "The Longest Night in Shanghai".

Alright, those were a lil' random but I just want to say one thing:

The relationship between the Japanese and Chinese are not as worse as people overseas might think. Unless you're Chinese or Japanese, I don't think you are entitled to your own opinion. :) Muahahahaha! :eviltongu

Shanghai is basically the NY of China. It's probrably the best city to go to for a concert.

hopefully that ayuchina can organise the fans there and greet ayu at the airport..its a lifetime experience..so you cant miss it...

:yes

nice pictures @ night

Yeah, I guess.

But I haven't heard as much buzz around the Shanghai stop as the other two :<~

Well, if there aren't as many fans there at the airport, at least Ayu won't have to feel so crowded.

hey, miniayumi, so, u live in china? good to hear that the relationships are OK nowadays... we are not sure about it and that is why we are discussing it here, it we dun point it out, we'll never know right?

true dat, homegirl :)

hey guys my turn...

i'm pretty sure that the coming live in shanghai will be as successful as the previous ones...china has many many ayu fans....but just because china's so large...a lot of fans cannot afford a long journey...

i have to say all the tickets for sh live were sold out within 20 hours, which was the fastest ever in shanghai. but quite many tickets were bought by **(oops, dunno that word, people who buy tickets and sell them in higher prices). but i'm pretty sure that the arena will be as fully-filled as hk and tw.
believe me.

um...relationship between china and japan...just getting better, but won't be really good.but that's not a big matter for the coming live, since nearly all the audience are ayufans...and we will try our best to protect her if someone wants to harm her...

about AYUCHINA, except for the welcome in the airport, they've been organizing everything pretty well. so many people have bought the ayuchina t-shirt, and we will wear those to watch the live.

some people said that they would cosplay ayu...one girl said she would cos I am...*AAAAAAAAh```* some would wear that fox tail from the evolution era. lolita....many

besides...tickets for the shanghai live are the most expensive among the three asian stops(hk the cheapest XD)

ayu announced recently in teamayu that she would bring a big surprise to shanghai, which is widely discussed in ayuchina. we think she may sing the most famous traditional chinese folk: mo li hua(dunno the eng translation, hope you know what it is). and the media said ayu would built a small railway in the arena and she would travel on the train singing. fountain for boys & girls would be probably included in the shanghai live. this is the overseas final, so would be pretty different from the previous 2. and the hk radio announced that ayu had planned to put a fountain in hk...but the arena floor was sooooooooooo small, no more room for a big fountain.

ayu said herself the song list for sh would be different, since a best 2 haven't been imported yet. so maybe part of me won't be sung here. she said she would sing more "ancient" famous songs for shanghai.ha

I am so happy to hear this... what a relief~ phew....


pls keep undating us about the events of Ayu!! wonder how many xiao long bao she will eat this time =p

*Scream* pls dun eat too much Ayu! U'll get fat!!

They're called scalpers. ;D

this seems so sudden, how come this news wasn't announced until the day Ayu arrives?

anyone know the capacity of the SH concert?

and i definitely can't wait for the SURPRISE! i hope it will be a surprise...

I'm SO HAPPY all the tickets were sold *0*
Wow, that's a good news, thanks =333

Oh, the tracklist will be different ?? *.*
I'm so excited to see this then~ =)


Less than 2 hours ?? xD

Because the other cities are prepairing all the stadiums & arenas for the Olympic games in 2008 ?
There was a thread where someone talked about the other cities weren't available to do a live I think...

Woah this ought to be grandest stage ever in Asian Tour! I wanna be the train driver! Lol

Have all the shang hai concert tickets sold out?

wow a fountain? and a train like what she always did at a-nation and stadium tour 2002? so cool...
i think the main songs will be the same...

the capacity of shanghai arena is 10,000 or 8,000.

ayu planned to hold 2 lives in both peking and shanghai, so there should have been 4 stops. but as all the arenas in peking are being rebuilt for the 2008 olympics, one stop was canceled.

tickets for tw and hk lives were both sold out within 3 hours. the fastest ever in these cities. so in a word, ayu update the record wherever she holds concerts.
