Will her ambition of &#8220;Chinese unification&#8221; come true?</figcaption></figure>
 Ruriko Kojima&#8217;s Chinese, singing, and fast-talking were all impressive!
It&#8217;s been a long time since we&#8217;ve had a chance to talk to her. Kojima&#8217;s commentary skills and her friendly atmosphere have bought her a lot of attention, and she is still useful in variety shows.

However, Kojima used to feel that his work was dwindling.
 &#8220;I feel like I&#8217;m going to fall off the edge in Japan.
He once said on TV, &#8220;I feel like I&#8217;m losing my edge in Japan.
 I think there are many reasons for the decrease in work, but one of them is her relationship with Yasuhisa Hara, the creator of the manga &#8220;Kingdom. Not only did it affect her image, but she also told &#8220;Wanderers&#8221; about it without reporting it to her boss, Akiko Wada. It is said that Wada was dissatisfied with this, and that this may have caused a distance between her and Kojima.
So Kojima turned his attention outside of Japan and was thinking of expanding into China. Before Covid-19, she went to Shanghai to look at properties, but once the infection spread, she decided not to go. However, under the surface, he had been working hard to learn Chinese and was steadily moving forward with his dream of expanding into China.
Then Kojima came into contact with someone. Koji Yano, the most famous Japanese actor in China.
The two had a conversation on the video sharing site bilibili. The entire conversation was conducted in Chinese and was designed for the Chinese audience.

 When I asked a Chinese acquaintance to watch the video, he said, &#8220;It&#8217;s a normal conversation. It seems that they can live in China without any inconvenience. I was surprised that they were so &#8220;serious&#8221; about entering China.
 However, China is a huge market with 1.3 billion people, so if you hit it big, it will be big, but there are also many rivals. It&#8217;s not an easy world to sell just because you&#8217;re a foreigner who can speak Chinese. However, Kojima-san is smart and hardworking, so I think she has a good chance of making a breakthrough.
Yano is also fluent in Chinese.
 Ruriko Kojima&#8217;s Chinese, singing, and fast speech were magnificent!
The video of Ruriko Kojima&#8217;s interview is about 1,000 words long.
The video of Kojima&#8217;s interview has been viewed about 250,000 times, and considering the scale of China, it&#8217;s safe to say that Kojima still has a lot of room to grow.
Kojima has stated publicly that he wants to be a singer in China. Will she be able to go from being a &#8220;balladoll&#8221; in Japan to a star singer in China?
