Eight o'clock in the evening, Sony SME building.

"Sorry guys, I'm late. Kitagawa Kenji pushed open the door of the conference room and bowed slightly, apologizing. Coming in after him was Yasushi Akimoto.

"It's not late, it's exactly eight o'clock, and you're really on time. Yoshio Konno said with a smile.

"Alas, don't mention it, the driver is constantly urged on the road, and he almost runs a red light. Beichuan said helplessly. Then he asked Akimoto Yasushi to go in and sit in the middle position, and he sat on his left hand side, and sitting opposite Akimoto Yasushi was Muramatsu Toshiryo.

"There's a lot of things going on today, I'm busy here, there's still a lot of things over there, I'm really tired, you know......" Kitagawa looked really tired and irritable, and the topic just now was not over, and said to Konno.

"Ahem," Akimoto coughed twice at this time, and Kitagawa Kenji quickly closed his mouth. nodded weakly at the fat autumn next to him and apologized. These were all seen by Toshiryo Muramatsu, who was sitting opposite.

"Alright, let's hurry up and start the meeting. Akimoto said. The meeting began.

"Today, after Kitagawa and Akimoto-san left, I informed Nogizaka's first-term students about the accommodation of the out-of-town members, and the solution is the same as the one we discussed earlier, but there is a small problem at the moment. Konno continued. "The dormitory we arranged is not suitable for the members to live in due to decoration problems, and they need to find another place for them temporarily. ”

"So, have you figured out a solution?" asked Yasushi Akimoto.

"Well, the solution we came up with was to find a three-star hotel not far from here, and we were going to charter one of the floors as a temporary accommodation for the out-of-town members, and after more than a month, the new dormitory would be completely fine, and the members would be able to live with peace of mind. This is also the meaning of boss. It was Nango Yui who answered, and after speaking, he looked at Muramatsu Junliang, and the other party also nodded.

"Yes, you can. Akimoto Yasusu lowered his head and looked at the member information in his hand and replied.

"Hey, a three-star hotel, it's still more than a month, and the cost is really unambiguous," Kitagawa Kenji said.

"You're a son-in-law and you're embarrassed to say this. Konno said with a smile.

"The question of who will be the center in the first semester. Akimoto said. "I still need the kind that has a strong sense of amateurism. With that, he pointed to the photo on the information in his hand.

"Is this this person?" Beichuan asked when he saw it. "This Ayaka Yoshimoto?"

"Well, I think she could give it a try. Akimoto said.

"Are you sure Akimoto-sensei? is it?" Kitagawa asked again when he saw Ayaka Yoshimoto with shawl hair on the photo.

"What's wrong, is there anything wrong?" asked Akimoto rhetorically this time.

"No, no, I'm just a little surprised. Kitagawa smiled wryly. He was the person who spent the most time with Akimoto Yasu, so he also knew some of Akimotoyasu's little habits. "I thought you would choose Rina Ikoma, this girl to be the center of Nogizaka 46. ”

"Ikoma is also under consideration. Yasu Akimoto said. "Originally, Rina Ikoma and Ayaka Yoshimoto were two girls who were very suitable for this position, but after thinking about it carefully, I decided that Ayaka Yoshimoto would be the center. Actually, Ikoma is also good, these two people are the same, but I chose Yoshimoto Ayaka. ”

Everyone else nodded in agreement. In terms of selecting members, everyone present was not as convincing as Yasushi Akimoto's words, the kitten club back then, and AKB48 is now in full swing, all of them rely on his eyes to select those ordinary girls one by one, and give them the opportunity to be idols, so that they shine on the stage.

Only Kenji Kitagawa knows that Yasuya Akimoto chose Saika Yoshimoto, and this decision has changed a lot. There is an unwritten rule in AKB.,Akimoto teacher likes to use girls with short hair to do center.,Although this statement has not been confirmed by me.,But it's still quite popular in AKB this group.,Many girls also cut their hair short.,Hoping to get a chance.。 Today, Yasu Akimoto can choose Ayaka Yoshimoto to take this position, it seems that in the matter of Nogizaka, he also has a certain challenge for himself, Kitagawa thought.

"Well, after the members come tomorrow, they sign the relevant contracts, and they can take photos of the formula and upload them to the official website. After Yoshio Konno finished speaking, he gave Yasu Akimoto a copy of the contract that had been drawn up.

Yasu Akimoto took a general look, and the brokerage company signed by the members was Nogizaka 46 Contract Company under the name of Kenji Kitagawa. "Looks like Sony is still on guard. After reading it, Akimoto returned it and said that it was no problem.

"The next problem is that we need a team leader within the team to communicate our ideas to the members and help us manage the members better. A good team needs such a team leader. Yoshio Konno mentioned.

"This Yumi Wakatsuki, and this Reika Sakurai," Akimoto said. "I was impressed by these two people at the time of selection, and I feel that they are both suitable for this position, so I can train them, observe them for a while, and finally choose one of them to be the captain of Nogizaka 46. ”

"I agree. "Okay. "I'm okay with that. "Everyone agreed to do so.

"Regarding the update of the members' information on the official website tomorrow. Akimoto said: "Try not to expose too much, just show the basic irrelevant information." Also, remind the members not to talk nonsense, with friends and family, and not to reveal too much about the internal affairs of the group. This point must be emphasized to them. ”

"Okay, Akimoto-san. Konno said he understood.

Yasu Akimoto nodded. "There's also the training of the members' singing and dancing skills, Muramatsu-san, have you arranged it for Sony Music?" asked Yasuya Akimoto to Toshiryo Muramatsu.

"Well, we have invited our professional singing and dancing teachers from Sony Music to help them with professional and systematic practice coaching. Toshiryo Muramatsu replied.

"That's good, some of these first-term students still have a foundation, but there are also those who are completely ordinary people with no experience, so please teach them patiently in this regard, and don't rush it. Yasu Akimoto added.

Toshiryo Muramatsu nodded.

The meeting had been going on for almost an hour, and it was now coming to an end.

"Akimoto-san, do you think Nogizaka 46 can really get up?" said Yoshio Konno suddenly.

"Well...... Konno-san, no one can guarantee this problem, what we can do is to increase the probability of success of this thing infinitely, so not only the members, but also those of us who need to work hard and put all their efforts into it. The quality of Nogizaka's first students is very good, at least in my opinion, and I feel that each of these girls has great potential, and it is rare to see so many girls with potential concentrated in one place. After speaking, Akimoto Yasushi smiled, and then said: "We must have confidence in them, as well as ourselves, besides, aren't you Sony, do you still need to be so unconfident?"

"Yes, not only the members, but also our operations must redouble our efforts not to be left behind by them, and strive to create opportunities for them. Konno was adamant.

Yasu Akimoto smiled, Kenji Kitagawa smiled, everyone sitting laughed, and Toshiryo Muramatsu also smiled.

"Okay, that's all for today, and we'll discuss what we'll talk about later. Feiqiu got up and said that the meeting could be dismissed, Muramatsu Junliang also stood up and stretched out his right hand, and Akimoto Yasusu saw the same, and the hands of the two people shook together.

"Thank you for your hard work today, Akimoto-san. ”

"Where, where. ”

After a few modest sentences, Kenji Kitagawa finally sent Akimoto Yasushi away.

After Akimoto Yasusu left, Muramatsu and the others had not left the room. Waiting for Kenji Kitagawa to return.

"Have you already left?" asked Muramatsu.

"Well, I've gotten in the car and left. The answer was none other than Kenji Kitagawa, who had just sent Yasuya Akimoto back.

"He probably already knew, and we'd have a separate meeting. Muramatsu said.

"Of course, he's an old man. At this time, Kitagawa loosened his tie and took a sip of water, which was obviously different from when Akimoto Yasushi was present.

"You left in such a hurry this afternoon, is there something wrong? You almost said it just now. Konno asked.

"Alas, don't mention it, it's a trouble anyway, it's inconvenient for Mr. Akimoto to say here, it's okay now, do you know......" Then Kitagawa Ken 21510 told everything he knew.

"No wonder Akimotoyasu's mind is not very focused today. Toshiryo Muramatsu could see from the meeting that Yasuya Akimoto had not been able to do it wholeheartedly, as if he was distracted by something else.

"Yes, indeed. Konno also said.

"Kenji, is it okay for Nogizaka's first-term students to be placed in your company?" asked Muramatsu.

"No problem, these are all negotiated in advance, as long as the contract is signed, these people are destined to be bound to our Sony Music, even if AKS regrets it later, there is no way. Kitagawa said.

"That's good, our own idol girl group at Sony still has to be controlled by ourselves. Muramatsu said, "Pay more attention to the AKB side and the Akimoto Yasu, if there are any problems, so that we can be prepared in advance." ”

Kenji Kitagawa nodded.

"Also, Nango, Konno, the members are entrusted to you, now that it has just been established, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of people in need of help, so you will have to worry more, they are our own people, not outsiders. Muramatsu deliberately emphasized himself, these two words.

"Yes, we will. The two men assured.

"There are also hotels where the members are staying temporarily, remember to arrange a few more brokers, and the people from the company will protect them, these girls don't understand anything. And those who go home, if they are far from home, you can ask them to go home early, remember to ensure the safety of the members"

"Yes. ”

"It shouldn't be anything" Muramatsu thought for a while, looked at his watch and looked at it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and asked the others, "Do you have any additional questions?"

Everyone else shook their heads and said they had no more questions to add.

"Well, then, adjournment. ”
