Although AKS is about to relocate its members in order to alleviate the huge financial pressure, the members who have relocated have not yet settled down.

And in order not to cause panic among the AKB girls, AKS operations are tight-lipped about this matter.

The content of this meeting is known only to the members of the operation who were present.

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who has a big nail and nails inside AKS, also learned the news of the emigration as soon as the meeting ended...

"Emigration?"

After hanging up Chiba Masaki's ventilation phone, Kiyoshi Sakamoto also muttered.

After Chiba Masaki's explanation, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is also what the situation of this "emigration" is.

"In this case, I can't stop the entire AKB from leaving, but I can take this opportunity to sign the most promising members of the AKB to Sony?!!"

"It's a bit difficult to sign the members you want between the four major firms, but if Sony makes a move, it should be able to grab it from other firms!"

As soon as he thought of this, Kiyoshi Sakamoto thought of the three people in the AKB group who would be the best and most popular in the future.

AKB immovable ACE, Atsuko Maeda!

AKB Next Generation ACE, Mayu Watanabe!

AKB's future overlord, Rina Hara!

"Yo Xi! That's the three of them!"

After setting a goal in his heart, Kiyoshi Sakamoto immediately set off and went to Sony to convince the man who was in control of everything.

。。。

Sony headquarters.

President's Office.

"Are you saying that Yasu Akimoto is going to hold it in his hands, and the agents of the members of the AKB are signed to other firms?"

Naoki Kitagawa, who was sitting in an office chair, was also a little surprised in his tone.

"That's right, that's what Masaki told me, and the news is completely accurate. ”

"Also, according to Masaki, AKS is already negotiating with the firms led by Ota, Watanabe, Ogi, and Horipro to sign out the list of members, so I think that even if we give up the entire AKB, we can sign up for potential members in the company. ”

In this way, even if the AKB is reborn in the future, we can control the core members of the AKB and have the power to influence the AKB. ”

Kiyoshi Sakamoto suggested with a serious face.

"Kiyokun, I know you have a lot of confidence in Yasu Akimoto and AKB, but I don't think that Yasu Akimoto's move can save AKB, which is on the verge of disbandment. ”

However, Naoki Kitagawa still feels that Sakamoto's suggestion is just a dying struggle by Sakamoto Kiyoshi who failed to prevent AKB from leaving Sony.

However, seeing the seriousness on Sakamoto Kiyoshi's face, Kitagawa Naoki felt that he had already rejected Sakamoto Kiyoshi's suggestion last time, and if he refused again this time, it might make Sakamoto Kiyoshi unhappy.

After all, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is Sony's leading artist, and this bit of face still has to be given.

As soon as he thought of this, Naoki Kitagawa, who was proficient in the way of the emperor, also secretly said in his heart, "Anyway, it's also to sign a few irrelevant little artists, so let him go... ”

In the end, under the expectant eyes of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, Naoki Kitagawa agreed to Kiyoshi Sakamoto's request after a moment of silence.

"Hmmm... ”

"However, if you think there is something to be made in AKB, we at Sony are always open to talented people with potential. In this case, you can make a list of the members you want to sign, and then go to President Kuto and discuss the signing. ”

"Thank you very much!" Sakamoto said with a serious face, standing up from his seat and bowing seriously.

"Well, though, in the end, I limited the number to five. The last sentence that Naoki Kitagawa added, still afraid of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, accidentally made a list with the names of all the AKB owners.

"I see!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who came out of the president's office, suddenly clenched the fist of his right hand, like a football player after scoring a goal, with an excited expression and swung a punch into the air.

"Great!"

。。。

After a little excitement, Kiyoshi Sakamoto calmed down, sat in the taxi heading for SMA, and began to think about how he could sign the few people he wanted.

"Referring to Rino Hara, the future AKB overlord, although the road to rise seems to be a bit too long, and Sony's variety show resources are not as rich as Ota's, and she can't continue to push her on variety shows like in her previous life, however, Sony just needs such a talent with great potential in variety shows... ”

"At most, after signing the original finger, Sony's variety show resources were all smashed on her... ”

"I don't believe it, under Suo Dad's terrifying resources, she can't become a variety show celebrity?!"

As for Mayu Watanabe, this Mayouyou child may be the closest person to the word "idol" among the three. ”

"This 94-year-old little sister can be said to be the most perfect representative of orthodox idols, and it is rare to cater to the preferences of mainstream culture and two-dimensional culture at the same time, and at the same time she is a CG girl. ”

"Her presence is a powerful addition to AKB's appeal to idol and anime otaku, and at the same time it will not undermine the mainstream culture's acceptance of AKB, which is an extremely important role for AKB, and it is also irreplaceable. ”

"It's okay to take the actress route in the future, and after Nogizaka is established, as one of the AKB God Seven, she can also become the predecessor of the members of Nogizaka and teach them some knowledge about idols. ”

"After all, cheese is power... Ahem, knowledge is power!"

Whew, exhaling, Sakamoto Kiyoshi touched the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, "I almost said the wrong line... ”

"Referring to Rino Hara and Mayu Watanabe, the difficulty of signing is not too big. ”

In 2008, Rino Shihara was only a fifth-term graduate student, while third-term student Mayu Watanabe was seen as the future of the next era as soon as she entered AKB.

However, in the case that AKB is difficult to protect itself, the future, this is the most worthless word.

Therefore, the signing of these two can be said to be very simple.

The point is, Atsuko Maeda.

"A-chan,It's already been seen by Yasu Akimoto as the core of AKB.,Immovable ACE.,Such a member.,It's bound to be the prey of other firms.,It's really difficult to get caught in the fire.。。。 ”

While thinking about this, I also took a taxi to SMA in Shinagawa Ward.

As a subsidiary of Sony Music's singers, actors, voice actors and other artists, even if it is listed under Sony Music, SMA can be said to be a novice in the agency firm.

Although he has agency deals with top singers such as Ken Hirai, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, and the Rainbow Band, among these people, only Kiyoshi Sakamoto can contribute his strength to Sony in addition to the music scene.

In the entire SMA, the famous actor is only Kiyoshi Sakamoto...

There's no way around it.

After all, Sony Music is a record company that focuses on music, and even if it has a brokerage subsidiary, SMA, it is only set up to facilitate the signing of brokerage contracts with its singers.

Therefore, it is also understandable that when Kiyoshi Sakamoto, an all-round artist with great potential in music and acting, appeared, how precious Sony was.

It's just the extent of holding him in the palm of his hand...

And Kiyoshi Sakamoto also lived up to expectations and became a star who has attracted much attention in the music and film industry.

This undoubtedly made Sony Music up and down and held him even more.

From the moment he walked into SMA, the staff greeted him with a smile on their faces, and you can know that his popularity and status within Sony are even more popular than many directors.

On the way to the president's office, Kiyoshi Sakamoto seemed to have gone through a long red carpet, and the employees of SMA, like his fans, kept greeting him...

It is precisely because of this that Sakamoto Kiyoshi took a distance of only a few minutes and walked for ten minutes.

。。。

SMA President's Office.

"Yo, isn't this our Sakamoto-kun, long time no see!" Tsuyoshi Kuto, who had already learned about Sakamoto Kiyoshi's arrival from his secretary, smiled.

This big guy is a middle-aged man who is a few years older than Naoki Kitagawa.

Compared with Kitagawa Naoki's rather majestic temperament, this SMA president feels completely different from the president who is in charge of all the artist management contracts under Sony Music, just like the leisurely uncle next door who likes to walk birds, chatting with you kindly and joking.

"Long time no see, Uncle Kuto!" Kiyoshi Sakamoto was more relaxed in front of Kuto Gang.

"Why are you so free to come to SMA today, are you coming to visit that little guy again?" said Tsuyoshi teased.

"No, I'm here to talk to you about something important today, but how is Reina? I didn't bother you, right?" Leaning back on the sofa, Kiyoshi Sakamoto asked suspiciously.

"No, she's got a new playmate recently, so she's very peaceful. Like an uncle who dotes on his own children, he said to Kiyoshi Sakamoto with a smile.

"Uh, playmates?"

"Well, I guess it was last month. ”

"Our company's talent scout, I met a little girl in Takeshita Street, who was shopping with her mother, and she was also quite a star, so I signed it. Tsuyoshi said as he pulled out a photo from the table covered with papers.

"No. ”

handed it to Sakamoto Kiyoshi, and Sakamoto Kiyoshi took it, and also looked at the photo in his hand with a curious face.

In the photo, a little girl with long hair and a very magical look, how to say it, a little girl with a world-weary face met the eyes of Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

"Huh, why do you look so familiar?"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who knew a little about the Japanese entertainment industry in his previous life, muttered to the little girl in the photo.

This face,It's clear that I've seen it somewhere.。。。

"What's her name?"

"Nana Komatsu. ”

"?!!"
