【絵本『えんとつ町のプペル』が50万部突破！キンコン西野が本屋を応援する理由】

映画『えんとつ町のプペル』の公開まで後２ヶ月ということで、制作も佳境に差し掛かっておりまして、同時に、あれやこれやと情報が発表されていっています。

裏話を言うと、近々（ハロウィン前後）で、少し大きめの情報といいますか、作品といいますか、そういったモノを発表します。
今回のオープニング主題歌を担当してくださったHYDEさん絡みの作品です。

とにかく、「エンターテイメントやってるなぁ〜」と皆が明るくなるものであることは間違いないので、お楽しみに。

さて、そんな中、絵本『えんとつ町のプペル』が、おかげ様で増刷に増刷を重ねて、なんと５３刷（ずり）になりまして、発行部数は５０万部を突破しました。

作り手として、作品が届くことほど嬉しいことはなく、それもこれも皆様のおかげです。
本当にありがとうございます。



さて。

その絵本『えんとつ町のプペル』ですが、今回の映画公開を記念して、映画バージョンのカバー表紙を巻いた絵本『えんとつ町のプペル』を販売することが決まりました。

映画のメインビジュアルをあしらった表紙になっておりまして、裏表紙には映画のシーンがいくつか入っているのと、あと、声優さんの名前も入っています。

スタッフと話したのは、「今しか出せない（今しか手に入れられない）絵本を出そう」ということで、裏表紙に声優さんの名前が入っている絵本って、こんな時しか販売できないので、かえって希少価値が高いかなぁと思い、今回のデザインに至りました。


１０年後とか、２０年後とかに、絵本の裏表紙にある声優さんの名前を見たら、「ああ、そういえば、この年は映画を公開したなぁ」と思えるじゃないですか？

そういう体験が共有できるのって、同じ時代を生きた人の特権だなぁと思って、おもくそ映画に振ったデザインにしました。

で、「今回、この映画バージョンの絵本『えんとつ町のプペル』をどこで販売するのか？」というのが今日の本題になるのですが、ぶっちゃけ、こんな話をして、最後に自社の販売リンクを貼っておけば、そこそこ買っていただけると思うんです。

でも、それだと自分達だけが利益を享受することになってしまう。

僕は「一人勝ち」みたいなものには一切興味がなくて、そんなことよりも、普段、応援してくださっている本屋さんに恩返しといいましょうか、この機会に応援したくて、今回の映画バージョンの表紙の『えんとつ町のプペル』はネット販売を辞めて、本屋さんのみでの販売とさせていただくことに決めました。



やっぱり、今回の映画化にしたって、そもそもポップを作って下さったり、それこそ絵本を探している人に、売り場まで案内してくださったり、本屋さんが、そういったことをしてくださったおかげ（その積み重ね）でしかないので、もう全力で本屋さんを応援します。



目的は「本屋さんを応援すること」なので、それこそ本屋さんのオンラインショップで販売されるのはオッケーで、僕自身、そういう本屋さんを見つけ次第、自分のSNSでご紹介させていただきます。

とにもかくにも、映画公開期間中しか販売しない映画バージョンの絵本『えんとつ町のプペル』をお求めの方は、是非、地元の本屋さんまで足を運んでみてください。

その際、『えんとつ町のプペル』以外に、「おや、なんか、この本も面白そうだぞ」というのがあれば、手にとっていただけると嬉しいです。

今年はコロナでオフラインのお店はどこも大変な思いをされたと思うので、微力ながら、こういった形で後押しさせていただきます。



一つ皆様にお願いしたいのは、本屋さんで映画バージョンの絵本『えんとつ町のプペル』を見つけたら、『♯えんとつ町のプペル』を付けて、「どこどこの本屋さんで、映画バージョンのプペルが売ってたよ〜」とツイートしていただけると、僕がそのツイートをシェアして、本屋さんの宣伝に繋げられるので、超絶嬉しいです。
何卒、ご協力よろしくお願いします。

[Picture book in a town ′′ has breached 50 million parts! The reason why xin nishino supports the bookstore]

It's been 2 months until the release of the movie ′′ a town ′′ and the production is also in the middle of the day, and at the same time, it's been announced that and the information has been announced.

The inside story is coming soon (around Halloween), do you have a little bigger information, do you have a work, and I will announce that kind of thing.
This is a work of Hyde, who was in charge of the opening theme song this time.

Anyway," I'm doing entertainment ~" and there's no doubt that everyone is going to be bright, so please look forward to it.

https://youtu.be/1g6Ca_UjOrs

　
Well, in such a way, the picture book ′′ a no-Cho ′′ has been reprinted to the printing, and it has become a 53-Printing, and the number of issues has breached 50 million parts.

As a making hand, it's not as happy as the work arrives, and it's also thanks to all of you.
Thank you so much.



Well.

The Picture book ′′ a in the town ′′ but in commemoration of the release of the movie this time, it has been decided to sell a picture book ′′ a no-Persie ′′ that wrapped the cover cover of the movie version.

It's on the cover of the main visual of the movie, and there are some movie scenes on the back cover, and the name of the voice actor is also in it.

I talked to the staff," I can only get it now (I can only get it now) I'm going to get a picture book," so I'm going to have a picture book that has the name of the voice actor on the back cover, and I can only sell it at this time No, so I thought it was a rare value, and I came to the design of this time.


10 years later, 20 years later, when I saw the name of the voice actor on the back paper of the picture book," oh, when I think about it, I don't think I've published a movie this year," Huh?

I made a design that I shook into a movie when I thought that I was able to share that kind of experience, and it was the privilege of the person who lived the same era.

So," this time, where do you sell this movie version of the picture book ′′ a in town?" it's going to be the chase of the day, but I'm going to talk about this, and I'm going to go to the middle of the day, and I'm going If you put on your own sales link, you'll be able to buy a lot of them.

But that's why we only enjoy the profit.

I'm not interested in anything like ′′ one win ′′ and I'm going to give back to the bookstore that I usually support you, and I want to cheer you up on this opportunity, and this time The Cover of the movie version of ′′ a no-Cho ′′ has decided to quit online sales and sell it only at the bookstore.



As expected, I made a movie this time, and I was able to make a pop in the first place, and it was a picture book, and I was able to show you to the department, and the bookstore did such a thing (that stack) I'm going to support the bookstore with all my power.



The purpose is ′′ to support the bookstore so it's okay to be sold at the bookstore's online shop, and as soon as I find that kind of bookstore, I will introduce you on my social media.

If you are looking for a picture book of the movie version that is only sold during the movie release period, please try to carry your feet at the local bookstore.

At that time, I would be happy if you could get it if you have a ′′ well, this book looks interesting too," besides ′′ a town,"

This year, I think that the offline shop in Corona has been a lot of trouble, so I'm going to support you in this form while I'm in the middle of the day.



I want to ask everyone, if you find a picture book of the movie version of the movie version ′′ a town," put on," ♯ a town," where is the bookstore? So, I'm super happy that I can share the tweet and connect it to the bookstore's promotion if you can tweet that the movie version of-was sold ~"
Thank you for your cooperation and cooperation.

【《金融時報》深度長訪】

今年做過數百外媒訪問，若要說最能反映我思緒和想法的訪問，必然是《金融時報》的這一個，沒有之一。

在排山倒海的訪問裡，這位記者能在短短個半小時裡，刻畫得如此傳神，值得睇。

Joshua Wong plonks himself down on a plastic stool across from me. He is there for barely 10 seconds before he leaps up to greet two former high school classmates in the lunchtime tea house melee. He says hi and bye and then bounds back. Once again I am facing the young man in a black Chinese collared shirt and tan shorts who is proving such a headache for the authorities in Beijing.

So far, it’s been a fairly standard week for Wong. On a break from a globe-trotting, pro-democracy lobbying tour, he was grabbed off the streets of Hong Kong and bundled into a minivan. After being arrested, he appeared on the front pages of the world’s newspapers and was labelled a “traitor” by China’s foreign ministry.

He is very apologetic about being late for lunch.

Little about Wong, the face of Hong Kong’s democracy movement, can be described as ordinary: neither his Nobel Peace Prize nomination, nor his three stints in prison. Five years ago, his face was plastered on the cover of Time magazine; in 2017, he was the subject of a hit Netflix documentary, Joshua: Teenager vs Superpower. And he’s only 23.

We’re sitting inside a Cantonese teahouse in the narrow back streets near Hong Kong’s parliament, where he works for a pro-democracy lawmaker. It’s one of the most socially diverse parts of the city and has been at the heart of five months of unrest, which has turned into a battle for Hong Kong’s future. A few weekends earlier I covered clashes nearby as protesters threw Molotov cocktails at police, who fired back tear gas. Drunk expats looked on, as tourists rushed by dragging suitcases.

The lunch crowd pours into the fast-food joint, milling around as staff set up collapsible tables on the pavement. Construction workers sit side-by-side with men sweating in suits, chopsticks in one hand, phones in the other. I scan the menu: instant noodles with fried egg and luncheon meat, deep fried pork chops, beef brisket with radish. Wong barely glances at it before selecting the hometown fried rice and milk tea, a Hong Kong speciality with British colonial roots, made with black tea and evaporated or condensed milk.

“I always order this,” he beams, “I love this place, it’s the only Cantonese teahouse in the area that does cheap, high-quality milk tea.” I take my cue and settle for the veggie and egg fried rice and a lemon iced tea as the man sitting on the next table reaches over to shake Wong’s hand. Another pats him on the shoulder as he brushes by to pay the bill.

Wong has been a recognisable face in this city since he was 14, when he fought against a proposal from the Hong Kong government to introduce a national education curriculum that would teach that Chinese Communist party rule was “superior” to western-style democracy. The government eventually backed down after more than 100,000 people took to the streets. Two years later, Wong rose to global prominence when he became the poster boy for the Umbrella Movement, in which tens of thousands of students occupied central Hong Kong for 79 days to demand genuine universal suffrage.

That movement ended in failure. Many of its leaders were sent to jail, among them Wong. But the seeds of activism were planted in the generation of Hong Kongers who are now back on the streets, fighting for democracy against the world’s most powerful authoritarian state. The latest turmoil was sparked by a controversial extradition bill but has evolved into demands for true suffrage and a showdown with Beijing over the future of Hong Kong. The unrest in the former British colony, which was handed over to China in 1997, represents the biggest uprising on Chinese soil since the 1989 pro-democracy movement in Beijing. Its climax, of course, was the Tiananmen Square massacre, when hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people were killed.

“We learnt a lot of lessons from the Umbrella Movement: how to deal with conflict between the more moderate and progressive camps, how to be more organic, how to be less hesitant,” says Wong. “Five years ago the pro-democracy camp was far more cautious about seeking international support because they were afraid of pissing off Beijing.”

Wong doesn’t appear to be afraid of irking China. Over the past few months, he has lobbied on behalf of the Hong Kong protesters to governments around the world. In the US, he testified before Congress and urged lawmakers to pass an act in support of the Hong Kong protesters — subsequently approved by the House of Representatives with strong bipartisan support. In Germany, he made headlines when he suggested two baby pandas in the Berlin Zoo be named “Democracy” and “Freedom.” He has been previously barred from entering Malaysia and Thailand due to pressure from Beijing, and a Singaporean social worker was recently convicted and fined for organising an event at which Wong spoke via Skype.

The food arrives almost immediately. I struggle to tell our orders apart. Two mouthfuls into my egg and cabbage fried rice, I regret not ordering the instant noodles with luncheon meat.

In August, a Hong Kong newspaper controlled by the Chinese Communist party published a photo of Julie Eadeh, an American diplomat, meeting pro-democracy student leaders including Wong. The headline accused “foreign forces” of igniting a revolution in Hong Kong. “Beijing says I was trained by the CIA and the US marines and I am a CIA agent. [I find it] quite boring because they have made up these kinds of rumours for seven years [now],” he says, ignoring his incessantly pinging phone.

Another thing that bores him? The media. Although Wong’s messaging is always on point, his appraisal of journalists in response to my questions is piercing and cheeky. “In 15-minute interviews I know journalists just need soundbites that I’ve repeated lots of times before. So I’ll say things like ‘I have no hope [as regards] the regime but I have hope towards the people.’ Then the journalists will say ‘oh that’s so impressive!’ And I’ll say ‘yes, I’m a poet.’ ”

And what about this choice of restaurant? “Well, I knew I couldn’t pick a five-star hotel, even though the Financial Times is paying and I know you can afford it,” he says grinning. “It’s better to do this kind of interview in a Hong Kong-style restaurant. This is the place that I conducted my first interview after I left prison.” Wong has spent around 120 days in prison in total, including on charges of unlawful assembly.

“My fellow prisoners would tell me about how they joined the Umbrella Movement and how they agreed with our beliefs. I think prisoners are more aware of the importance of human rights,” he says, adding that even the prison wardens would share with him how they had joined protests.

“Even the triad members in prison support democracy. They complain how the tax on cigarettes is extremely high and the tax on red wine is extremely low; it just shows how the upper-class elite lives here,” he says, as a waiter strains to hear our conversation. Wong was most recently released from jail in June, the day after the largest protests in the history of Hong Kong, when an estimated 2m people — more than a quarter of the territory’s 7.5m population — took to the streets.

Raised in a deeply religious family, he used to travel to mainland China every two years with his family and church literally to spread the gospel. As with many Hong Kong Chinese who trace their roots to the mainland, he doesn’t know where his ancestral village is. His lasting memory of his trips across the border is of dirty toilets, he tells me, mid-bite. He turned to activism when he realised praying didn’t help much.

“The gift from God is to have independence of mind and critical thinking; to have our own will and to make our own personal judgments. I don’t link my religious beliefs with my political judgments. Even Carrie Lam is Catholic,” he trails off, in a reference to Hong Kong’s leader. Lam has the lowest approval rating of any chief executive in the history of the city, thanks to her botched handling of the crisis.

I ask whether Wong’s father, who is also involved in social activism, has been a big influence. Wrong question.

“The western media loves to frame Joshua Wong joining the fight because of reading the books of Nelson Mandela or Martin Luther King or because of how my parents raised me. In reality, I joined street activism not because of anyone book I read. Why do journalists always assume anyone who strives for a better society has a role model?” He glances down at his pinging phone and draws a breath, before continuing. “Can you really describe my dad as an activist? I support LGBTQ rights,” he says, with a fist pump. His father, Roger Wong, is a well-known anti-gay rights campaigner in Hong Kong.

I notice he has put down his spoon, with half a plate of fried rice untouched. I decide it would be a good idea to redirect our conversation by bonding over phone addictions. Wong, renowned for his laser focus and determination, replies to my emails and messages at all hours and has been described by his friends as “a robot.”

He scrolls through his Gmail, his inbox filled with unread emails, showing me how he categorises interview requests with country tags. His life is almost solely dedicated to activism. “My friends and I used to go to watch movies and play laser tag but now of course we don’t have time to play any more: we face real bullets every weekend.”

The protests — which have seen more than 3,300 people arrested — have been largely leaderless. “Do you ever question your relevance to the movement?” I venture, mid-spoonful of congealed fried rice.

“Never,” he replies with his mouth full. “We have a lot of facilitators in this movement and I’m one of them . . . it’s just like Wikipedia. You don’t know who the contributors are behind a Wikipedia page but you know there’s a lot of collaboration and crowdsourcing. Instead of just having a top-down command, we now have a bottom-up command hub which has allowed the movement to last far longer than Umbrella.

“With greater power comes greater responsibility, so the question is how, through my role, can I express the voices of the frontliners, of the street activism? For example, I defended the action of storming into the Legislative Council on July 1. I know I didn’t storm in myself . . . ” His phone pings twice. Finally he succumbs.

After tapping away for about 30 seconds, Wong launches back into our conversation, sounding genuinely sorry that he wasn’t there on the night when protesters destroyed symbols of the Chinese Communist party and briefly occupied the chamber.

“My job is to be the middleman to express, evaluate and reveal what is going on in the Hong Kong protests when the movement is about being faceless,” he says, adding that his Twitter storm of 29 tweets explaining the July 1 occupation reached at least four million people. I admit that I am overcome with exhaustion just scanning his Twitter account, which has more than 400,000 followers. “Well, that thread was actually written by Jeffrey Ngo from Demosisto,” he say, referring to the political activism group that he heads.

A network of Hong Kong activists studying abroad helps fuel his relentless public persona on social media and in the opinion pages of international newspapers. Within a week of his most recent arrest, he had published op-eds in The Economist, The New York Times, Quartz and the Apple Daily.

I wonder out loud if he ever feels overwhelmed at taking on the Chinese Communist party, a task daunting even for some of the world’s most formidable governments and companies. He peers at me over his wire-framed glasses. “It’s our responsibility; if we don’t do it, who will? At least we are not in Xinjiang or Tibet; we are in Hong Kong,” he says, referring to two regions on Chinese soil on the frontline of Beijing’s drive to develop a high-tech surveillance state. In Xinjiang, at least one million people are being held in internment camps. “Even though we’re directly under the rule of Beijing, we have a layer of protection because we’re recognised as a global city so [Beijing] is more hesitant to act.”

I hear the sound of the wok firing up in the kitchen and ask him the question on everyone’s minds in Hong Kong: what happens next? Like many people who are closely following the extraordinary situation in Hong Kong, he is hesitant to make firm predictions.

“Lots of think-tanks around the world say ‘Oh, we’re China experts. We’re born in western countries but we know how to read Chinese so we’re familiar with Chinese politics.’ They predicted the Communist party would collapse after the Tiananmen Square massacre and they’ve kept predicting this over the past three decades but hey, now it’s 2019 and we’re still under the rule of Beijing, ha ha,” he grins.

While we are prophesying, does Wong ever think he might become chief executive one day? “No local journalist in Hong Kong would really ask this question,” he admonishes. As our lunch has progressed, he has become bolder in dissecting my interview technique. The territory’s chief executive is currently selected by a group of 1,200, mostly Beijing loyalists, and he doubts the Chinese Communist party would ever allow him to run. A few weeks after we meet he announces his candidacy in the upcoming district council elections. He was eventually the only candidate disqualified from running — an order that, after our lunch, he tweeted had come from Beijing and was “clearly politically driven”.

We turn to the more ordinary stuff of 23-year-olds’ lives, as Wong slurps the remainder of his milk tea. “Before being jailed, the thing I was most worried about was that I wouldn’t be able to watch Avengers: Endgame,” he says.

“Luckily, it came out around early May so I watched it two weeks before I was locked up in prison.” He has already quoted Spider-Man twice during our lunch. I am unsurprised when Wong picks him as his favourite character.

“I think he’s more . . . ” He pauses, one of the few times in the interview. “Compared to having an unlimited superpower or unlimited power or unlimited talent just like Superman, I think Spider-Man is more human.” With that, our friendly neighbourhood activist dashes off to his next interview.
