Akasaka BRITZ

2009.7.8.

The general election is about to be held, and outside the sealed venue, the heavy rain has not stopped, and although the people inside can't feel it, their mood is also fluctuating like a fluctuating raindrop, whether it is the idols who are about to be exposed, or the idols who are looking forward to the same but unbearable meals.

Takuhisa, who was sitting in the upper stands and watching, did not have much fluctuation in his mood, and as an outsider, the so-called general election did not mean much to him.

In addition to letting the rice vote for their idols to get the opportunity to join the selection, this general election is a test of the future arrangements of the operators, as advertised at the beginning.

Will Atsuko Maeda, who has been a representative of AKB, continue to represent AKB?

Who will compete with her after her?

What about the general strength of the members?

…

The general election is more than just a polling event.

"Anything is fine, but can't the venue be bigger?" Takuhisa said.

The venue of the general election, the venue of Akasaka BRITZ, and the facilities of the props are indeed too shabby, giving people a sense of small family.

"The first time I can only do it, if the response is good, I will change to a better venue in the future. Yasu Akimoto, who was sitting next to Takuhisa, also said helplessly,

"It's just because the risks are uncertain, that's why I chose this place, isn't it?"

"I mean that Yuanjun should also be considerate of our operation, and we must consider all factors. Yasu Akimoto didn't object to Takuhisa's statement, and then turned his head to look at the other person, "What do you think of this general election?"

"I don't have any ideas. ”

Jin Sang, who was sitting in the seat, replied indifferently, it seemed that he still had no good impression of Akimoto Yasu.

If it weren't for the idea of the general election, he wouldn't have accepted the invitation to come here.

touched a nose of ash, but Akimoto didn't pay much attention to it. Idols and geniuses always have all kinds of quirks, and he hasn't gotten angry about them yet.

While chatting, the general election was officially underway.

It doesn't just start to report the rankings, but before the start, the members perform dances.

Pleasant music sounded, lights flashed, and the members appeared to perform the single "Tears of Surprise", which was released in June. After the performance, the members who took the stage expressed their thoughts.

It's just that when it came time for Atsuko Maeda to speak, there was a bad situation.

When she said that she was also nervous, there was a neat sigh of "hey" from the audience, which made Atsuko Maeda's face change, the kind that became worse.

And when the people after her spoke, the voice of the audience was completely different from hers, she belonged to the cold type.

"Looks like there's a lot of anti mixed in, Mr. Akimoto. Takuhisa, who saw this development in the stands, teased and said to Yasushi Akimoto, "And it's all for Maeda's appearance." ”

The actions that happened just now can be basically determined to be anti against Atsuko Maeda's behavior.,Since she took the position of immovable center,Most of the dissatisfaction will be tilted towards her.。

"Since A-chan became the façade, such a situation has happened from time to time. "But she's used to it in the past few years, otherwise she wouldn't have been in the center." The words were full of pride.

Choosing Atsuko Maeda as the center to start with can be said to be one of the decisions he feels is wise at the moment.

"It's just that I just prefer mushroom heads, so where do you say so much. ”

Jin Sang next to him stabbed and said, but Akimoto didn't hear it.

After the AKB members finished their presentations, the SKE members took the stage next. SKE, represented by Matsui, will officially start the overall election rankings announced after their performances.

The two operations in charge of the master of ceremonies, Date Nagamune and Watanabe Ken, came up, and as soon as the two of them came on stage, they caused dissatisfaction with the meal, Date Nagamune was okay, his face was simple, and Watanabe Ken was a little handsome.

In a place like the general election, which is mostly eaten by otaku, it is definitely not going to like men who are too handsome.

The first general election is so shabby, don't expect any big-name emcee to come, the host is positioned inside the operation. Originally, the emcee who presided over should be Togasaki Tonobu and the chief costume designer Shinobu Chinobu, who had a high degree of recognition during the meal, so it was extremely suitable.

But under Ken Watanabe's intervention, it was decided that he and Date Nagamune would do it, and I don't know what purpose he did it... Fortunately, the master of ceremonies does not have to be a male and female pair, and it is not impossible for two men to be combined, so that's it.

The master of ceremonies is just a trivial matter, and although there are a lot of people who are bored by not being Togasaki, they quickly turn the page, and today's focus is on the AKB general election.

The spotlight shone on the place where the two of them were standing, Watanabe Ken enjoyed the feeling of being noticed, and Date Nagamune was a little nervous, he was a little nervous for the first time on stage.

If it weren't for the president's consent, he wouldn't have agreed to be the master of ceremonies.

Thinking of this, Date Nagamune looked upward, Takuhisa was smiling at him, as if encouraging him, which made him pluck up confidence again, and secretly cheered for himself in his heart.

Although Takuhisa didn't smile at all, it was just his own brain. The distance is so far, coupled with the effect of lights, at most it is just a figure to see.

After a brief introduction, Date Nagamune and Ken Watanabe began to preside.

In this regard, Ken Watanabe is like a veteran and extremely skilled.

"Next, let's introduce the members of this general election. Date Nagamune said.

"Please welcome them with a round of applause. Ken Watanabe continued.

After the applause, members came out of the door in front of the master of ceremonies.

First of all, Tomomi Itano of team A, who bowed and walked off the stage, and sat down in the front row of the members, followed by team A's Satomi Kitahara... After that, the members of SKE gradually came to power, and when the last graduate student members stepped down, the members who signed up basically achieved their positions.

"Today, AKB48 Team K will be absent due to the first day of the stage play, Kamo Yamashita of SKE48TeamS and Misaki Iwasa of the AKB48 Research Group will be absent due to school activities, and Aiko Shibagi, graduate student of SKE48, will not be able to attend due to ill health. ”

Date Chomune held his breath and read the lines on the paper one by one without pause before announcing all the members who participated in the general election, and the names of these 98 members (including graduate students) were so many that he almost fainted.

I also have to be considerate of him as a master of ceremonies for the first time.

In the midst of applause, Ken Watanabe introduced Nishiyama as a broadcaster.

"Nishiyama, how are the members doing now?" he asked.

"Hi, I'm Nishiyama. At this moment, I saw a lot of nervous expressions that the members would not have in the past, so let's quickly interview a few members, shall we?"

After asking Minami Takahashi, Saika Akimoto, Reina Matsui, and Kazumi Urano what they thought, the eyes of the scene turned back to the emcee.

Date Nagamune introduced the order and principle of placement on the stage to everyone at the scene, but...

"It's cruel, Mr. Akimoto. ”

After listening to it, Takuhisa also felt that it was a little too fancy.

There are a total of 30 places, and the lower the rankings, the lower they are, and the 22nd to 30th places simply have no places, just standing at the back, and the difference is really big.

"Hehe, after all, this is not a joke, but I still want to let the members know that the general election is not a joke. Akimoto said with a smile.

Takuhisa laughed, and he didn't feel unhappy for those members, no matter what happened in society, it was very cruel, so Akimoto Yasu's arrangement was reasonable.

It's much better than those who can only sit in the audience in the end and can't even get into the rankings.

The process continued, and two staff members in white suits (who seemed to say that they were Shiba-tomoya and Manabu Yamamoto) handed the box containing the general election vote to the stage.

"So are you all ready? Swear to God that this is all serious and true, and the results of the AKB13th single selection general election have been officially announced. With Date Nagamune's voice, the selected members of the general election will finally be announced.

Instead of being published in order from 30 to 1, it was published in the 21st to 13th place, then the 22nd to 30th place, and finally the 12th to 1st place.

"The 21st is the last member in the seat, and the 13th is the one who is one step away from becoming the main member. Date Nagamune said.

A total of 30 candidates were selected, and the 22nd to 30th place formed under girl and sang the C/ song of the next single, and the 22nd person served as the center of the C/.

The top 21 are called the selection group, and they are eligible to participate in the single selection and can participate in the recording and promotion of the title song, and the next 1 to 12 are called the media group, and the owners have priority to get the opportunity to promote the media and appear in related programs.

The first place can be used as the center of the single.

Layer by layer, there is basically no need to worry about the sales of singles including general election voting, and the operation can also take the opportunity to confirm the comprehensive strength of the idols, and it can also satisfy the self-participation psychology of the meal, killing multiple birds with one stone.

After cutting the envelope with golden scissors, Date Nagamune was about to announce his ranking, and the members in the audience who watched his movements were also extremely nervous, and some of them couldn't bear to look at it anymore, so they lowered their heads and prayed silently.

"No. 21..."Even if it was a new emcee, Date Nagamune's voice couldn't help but be suppressed at this moment, "AKB48, teamK Kuraka Asuka." ”

Out of the back row of the members came a girl with long hair and a soft face, like a big sister next door.

"Kurachi... It's a lot lower than the ranking in the flash report and the intermediate publication, but it didn't give her much promotion, but it still has a ranking of 21st, which is not bad. Akimoto Yasusu looked at Asuka Kuramochi and touched his chin and commented.

"Asuka Kuramochi has only entered a selection, and she can rank 21st because she is strong enough. Jin Sang also expressed his opinion at this time.

"I didn't expect Fushi-san to pay a lot of attention to Kurachi. Akimoto said in surprise.

"It's just that I have some impressions of this person in the theater. Jin Sang said lightly.

After Asuka Kuramochi gave her testimonial, Date Nagamune continued to publish the next rankings.

"Next up is 20th place...", opening the envelope, "AKB, teamB Aika Tada." ”

It's also Tada Aika who walks with Watanabe Mayu in the style of sisters, but she is going to lose to Mayu in terms of fame, but it is also better than the results in the flash report.

The results of the preliminary report were 25th, and the results published in the middle were 22nd, and the rankings were improved.

When Aika Tada spoke on stage, Mayu Watanabe in the audience also covered her eyes with her hands and wiped her tears.

Although there is repetition in positioning, the relationship between Mayu and Tada Aika is not bad, but rather the similar age and common topics make them friends who can usually let go of the superficial heart-to-heart conversation.

Similarly, Yuki Kashiwagi has a good relationship with Aika Tada, and she tears happily because she can enter the selection.

The friendship between the members of TeamB is very deep, and because many of the members recruited at the beginning are junior and senior high school students, there will be a lot less relative conflict.

"Next up is 19th... SKE, teamS Rina Matsui Suzu. ”

When hearing this ranking, Akimoto Yasushi on the stage was inevitably a little disappointed.

"Is it only the nineteenth?... "Akimoto Yasusu couldn't help but whisper to himself in confusion.

When it was published in the middle, Matsui Jurina had a ranking of 14, and before that, she also belonged to the type that was pushed, and now it is only 19th, which is indeed a bit too low.

"Maybe it's because there are too many pushes that the ranking is so low?" Takuhisa said with his guess.

"Probably. Akimoto Yasuya could only nod his head, but the disappointment in his heart was still difficult to expel away.

After all, the extent of the resources and push he gave Matsui Jurina is not surprising that he is a daughter.

"18th... AKB48, teamA Miho Miyazaki. ”

"17th... AKB48, teamB Kazumi Urano. ”

…

"14th place... AKB, teamK, Sae Miyazawa. ”

reported the rankings one by one, which had familiar names and completely unfamiliar existences, and finally came to the 13th place in the final selection group.

"What's next, it's the 13th place..."When he said this, Date Nagamuneguchi was also a little thirsty, but he still endured it and continued to report his name, "AKB, teamB - refers to Rino Hara." Congratulations. ”

When reporting this name, Date Nagamune was also surprised, and then immediately smiled, and rarely added a word of congratulations at the end.

It's the president's sister anyway.,To be in the thirteenth place.,It's really a good rank.,He remembers that Rinai Pointing out to the outside world once said that he estimated that there were only more than twenty this time.。

It was an unexpected result, and I jumped from undergirl to 13th in one fell swoop, and I almost got promoted to the media group.

Rima Fingerhara, who was in the audience, was also surging at the moment, and couldn't calm down at all, really, it was much better than she expected, and the sudden joy interrupted her thinking.

In the end, it was reminded by the person next to her that she thought that this was a general election, and immediately stood up and prepared to take the stage.
