据日媒报道,6月18日,喜多川因蛛网膜下腔出血,被紧急送往医院。过去3周以来,众多事务所所属艺人纷纷探视弥留之际的喜多川。杰尼斯事务所发布讣告称,他们像喜多川的“孩子”一样,谈论着他们与“男团教父”之间的点滴回忆。

“The time Johnny spent with them at the hospital was precious,” the statement reads.

讣告中写道:“约翰尼和他们在医院度过的时光非常宝贵。”

“Wrapped in the love from his children, he closed the final curtain at 4:47 p.m. on July 9, 2019,” the statement said.

讣告中说道:“2019年7月9日下午4点47分,他被孩子们的爱所环绕着,生命最后的帷幕落下了。”

One of his final wishes was that “this world would continue to be peaceful and full of hope so that people could continue to enjoy entertainment,” the company said.

他最后的愿望之一是“这个世界将继续和平,充满希望,这样人们就能继续享受娱乐,”该杰尼斯事务所表示。

“We’d like to convey our appreciation to all the fans and concerned parties from the bottom of our hearts,” the statement reads.

声明中写道:“我们要衷心向所有的歌迷和相关方面表达我们的感激之情。”

喜多川本名喜多川擴(Hiromu Kitagawa),1931年出生于美国洛杉矶。童年时期的喜多川多次随家人辗转于日本和美国之间,并于上世纪50年代定居日本。朝鲜战争其间,喜多川曾在美军服役,教孤儿们英语。

1962年,喜多川受美国音乐电影《西区故事》的启发,组建了4人男性组合“杰尼斯”,创立了“杰尼斯事务所”。

Over the years he honed a strategy of making sure the bands he created, after holding open casting calls to recruit and then train his musicians in singing and dancing, became cultural icons through a combination of appearances on television variety shows in addition to concerts and recording sales.

多年来,他制定了一项策略,通过公开招募,训练招募者成为能歌善舞的歌手,除了开演唱会和销售专辑,还在各类电视节目中出镜,来确保他创建的乐队成为文化偶像。

This pattern, which gave birth to groups such as SMAP, Arashi and Kinki Kids, among many others, is also widely followed in Korea's mammoth K-pop industry.

这种模式催生了诸如SMAP、岚和Kinki Kids等组合,甚至还被韩国庞大的流行音乐产业广泛效仿。

喜多川打造的偶像数不胜数,光是已出道的日本主流偶像组合就有45个,约166人,而派生组合更是难以计数。杰尼斯事务所年收入超过1000亿日元(约合人民币62亿元),被称为“偶像帝国”。

Kitagawa was the holder of three Guinness World Records titles for producing the most No. 1 artists, the most No. 1 singles and the most concerts produced by an individual.

喜多川还曾获得“拥有最多拿下销量冠军艺人的制作人”、“制作最多最畅销单曲的人物”、“制作最多演唱会的人物”三项吉尼斯世界纪录。

He recently worked as the executive producer for the Japanese movie "Shonentachi" released in March this year.

最近,他担任了今年3月上映的日本电影《少年们》的执行制片人。

不过,喜多川也并非一帆风顺。他曾被日本一周刊爆料性行为不端。

He was the subject of numerous allegations of sexual misconduct. In 1999, Japanese weekly magazine Shukan Bunshun published a series detailing accusations of child abuse and sexual exploitation made by several boys under his wing.

他曾背负多项性行为不端的指控。1999年,日本杂志《文春周刊》发表了一系列关于他手下几个男孩指控他虐待和性剥削儿童的报道。

However, he was never charged with any crimes on the basis of the allegations.

然而,他从未被起诉过任何基于这些指控的罪名。

Kitagawa sued the Shukan Bunshun and was awarded damages, but the judgment was partially overturned on appeal with the court ruling the magazine had sufficient reason to publish the allegations of sexual misconduct. A subsequent Supreme Court appeal by Kitagawa was rejected.

喜多川起诉了《文春周刊》,并被判获得赔偿损失,但该判决在上诉中被部分推翻,法院裁定,该杂志有充分理由发布有关喜多川不当性行为的指控。随后喜多川向最高法院提出的上诉被驳回。

尽管如此,还是有众多由喜多川一手栽培的艺人对他的去世发文悼念,表达哀思。

而网友们也纷纷留言,表达对喜多川的感谢与怀念。

谢谢你,Johnny, 早在韩国流行团体BTS来到我生命中之前,你是第一个教会我如何爱自己的人。谢谢你教会我如何热爱生活并感恩生命中每一件小事。感谢你让那些明星闪耀光芒。

Johnny先生,我们的Johnny。您是我们的父亲。我们永远爱您。太感谢您了。

我知道他不是个完美的人,但我真的感谢他创立了杰尼斯事务所。
