Nogizaka 46's fifth single announced the selection method can be described as extremely cruel. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

First of all, bring all the members together without knowing it.

Then, suddenly, it was announced that the selection would be announced, and then a second venue was set up, and there was a table in the middle of the meeting room with cards with the names of all the members written on them.

Open the card, and if it has a serial number on it, you can enter the third venue, a place where you can choose your seats, and find the corresponding number to sit down.

If there is no number in the card and there is a blank space, then it means that the selection has been dropped.

This idea was obviously thought up by Satomi Ichiro, who had a bad stomach, and he, an idol who was born in insurance, liked this kind of exciting bridge and method the most.

Of course, there are worse ones to come.

The cards are not distributed one by one or opened by everyone, but the members are allowed to choose whether to go to the second venue to open the cards themselves.

At the same time, in the venue where the members sit, there is also an LED display, which shows the remaining number of selections, and as a girl enters the second venue to reveal the results, this LED display will flash to show the remaining number of selections, and if the remaining selection number is zero, then no matter how many people are left in the venue, the selection will end directly.

"Haha, that, how about it, Mai sheep, don't you find it exciting?" Uesugi Soyuki touched the stubble on his chin and said with a smile: "Ning Sang is almost fainting from laughter on the side of the monitor." ”

"It's really... I always feel that our Nogizaka 46 operators are not quite right!" Nanami Hashimoto complained.

"Hahaha~" Uesugi Muneyuki couldn't stop laughing.

He later watched the show and found that it was not too different from what he remembered, so Rina Ikoma resolutely took the lead and found out that he was the center when he went up.

Then there are Sayuri Matsumura, Nanami Hashimoto, Mai Shiraishi, Ikuta Erika and others who have figured out that they are the gods of good fortune.

These people dare to go up directly to open the card, because they have no fear, except for Ikoma Rina who feels that she is the center, relying on strong willpower to directly hit the head, the other girls, most of them have a strong handshake will be the bottom of the results, so they dare to go up and touch directly.

"Wow, I was crying nervously at that time. Mai Shiraishi was coquettish on Uesugi Soyuki's body, and Nana Hashimoto complained without seeing this: "Mai sheep, you will be the first to shake hands, what is there to be nervous about." ”

Uesugi Soyuki put Mai Shiraishi's tender feet wrapped in flesh-colored ultra-thin stockings in the palm of his hand and played with it, and gently pinched the girl's round ankles and cute little feet with red nail polish through the stockings with his fingers: "This time, we let Nagashima Sanoro and Edo Misai enter the selection for the first time, do you have any opinions in the group?"

"Why do we seem to have become your spies, helping you spy on intelligence all day long?" Nana Hashimoto stretched out a pair of long legs, and the meaning was obvious: I want it too.

After gently giving the two girls a foot massage and finally kissing each on their feet, Uesugi began to explain why.

Nogizaka 46 has always had a good rule, that is, no matter how unfavored and untalented girls are, as long as they work hard and there are no major problems, they will get at least one chance to be selected (especially for the first term).

That's fair for a for-profit group.

There's not much to say about putting Micai Eto into the selection.,Eto herself is a very talented.,There's also a girl with potential.,It's just that the operation has been scrupling about her identity as a former di-meta idol.,I'm a little worried that she has the idea of "borrowing".,So I've been suppressing her.。

However, Uesugi Soyuki thinks that after joining the group for a year, Misai Eito has not made any waves, and he listens to the arrangement of the operation very much, and he is here, but he is not afraid of what Misai will do.

In terms of the memory of the technical nerd,The operation has been suppressing Micai Eto until the seventh single before entering the selection a little late (of course, he thinks that there is a factor of Sayuri's own death),Misai Eto's age is not young (13 years 20 years old),It's better to go up and take charge of it as soon as possible.。

And what about Nagashima Sōro?

Nagashima Sainto is a very interesting girl, and in essence, she is also a person with no special talents.

But this girl has a very good personality, usually like a silly big sister, trains hard, is serious, and is clearly aware of the gap between herself and the selection, rarely complains, and has good interpersonal relationships in the group.

Hawkers~ Opportunities are always given.

As for Ito Ninning, who was brushed down due to the butterfly effect, Uesugi Soyuki could only say sorry.

Ito Ningning's girl's appearance deteriorated very quickly after joining the group, this is another girl who was looked away by Fatty Qiu, as mentioned earlier, Fatty Autumn has a unique set of eyes for looking at girls, and the girls he selected often have amazing changes in their appearance when they grow up, but Fatty Qiu is not a fairy, and he will also have a lot of eyes.

And her own ideals are also very problematic.,She just came to Nogizaka 46 with the idea of "wanting to be active in the entertainment industry.,That is, I've always been in a situation where I can't figure out what I'm going to do.,And then the handshake party can't get a strong proof.,Later, after a while.,I found that I'm getting older.,And when you can't do anything.,It's not surprising that I chose to graduate.。

Since there is no destined future, Uesugi Soyuki feels that the selection position is so tight, it is better to give Misai Eto a clear-minded, good-looking, and talented person.

Nogizaka 46's UG is basically in a state of panic right now, except for practice and handshake meetings, as well as the online program "Nogizaka is here", and sporadically participating in some group activities, there is basically nothing to do.

Uesugi Soyuki didn't dare to open an underlive at this time, because the time was not yet ripe, at least until Nogizaka 46's popularity was high enough, otherwise it would be a money-losing deal to open an underlive now.

The fourth single, Nogizaka 46, has just turned a profit, and this is not the time to increase investment, but to continue to make money and let the board gain more confidence.

"In short, Mai Sheep, you cut all the handshakes of the fourth single, and then Nana Min you cut all the short ones, which is commendable!" Uesugi Muneyuki gave a thumbs up to the two girls: "So, I'm going to reward you with something!"

"What's the reward? You say it first, and I'll see if I want to accept it. Nana Hashimoto glanced at him.

"It's definitely not what you think, this gift, I'll wait until your bar mig-nom ceremony is over before giving it to you. Uesugi nodded.

Both girls were stunned.

yes, the coming-of-age ceremony is coming.

Life is only twenty years old.

January 13, 2013.

From before dawn, the four girls, Mai Shiraishi, Sayuri Matsumura, Nanami Hashimoto, and Misai Eto, began a long preparation.

Normally, it takes at least a few months to book a kimono for a coming-of-age ceremony, but Sony has its own special channel to rent kimonos for these four girls who are coming of age this year.

The rusty kimono used for the coming-of-age ceremony is not the street stalls or the kimono found in some ***** with only a few pieces of fabric (in fact, it should be called a yukata).

Kimono furisode is generally only worn by girls and unmarried women.

However, there are exceptions, even the boys' celebration dresses are also made into the style of shaking sleeves.

The vibrating sleeve is divided into three subdivisions - small vibrating sleeve (two-foot sleeve), middle vibrating sleeve (vibrating sleeve), and large vibrating sleeve (this vibrating sleeve).

The small Zhensleeve is generally used as a dress for admission and graduation, the middle Zhensleeve is mostly used for New Year's, adulthood, and unmarried women to attend formal occasions, and the large Zhensleeve (flower wedding Zhensleeve) is mostly used for weddings.

The real coming-of-age ceremony to use the Zhongzhen sleeve gown, is three layers inside and three layers outside, a very cumbersome set of kimono, composed of more than 20 parts, a set of just to wear an hour or even longer.

The whole outfit takes a long time to wear, and once it is dressed, the adult girls will become extremely radiant and dignified.

Nogi Shrine in the morning was surrounded by a large number of reporters and staff.

Mai Shiraishi chose a pale red kimono, embroidered with blooming flowers, and with the girl's gorgeous face, it was really beautiful, plus after last year's dedication, she got the moisture of her predecessors, and every move has begun to appear mature.

Nana Hashimoto didn't choose a pale yellow kimono, compared to the smiling Mai Shiraishi, the girl seems to be a little unable to let go, smiling more reservedly, but just as beautiful, compared to the gorgeous Mai Shiraishi, she is more like a snow lotus on the mountain, budding.

Misai Eto was wearing a bright red kimono, which also attracted a lot of people's attention, and Sayuri Matsumura was more strange, this girl got a very strange high double ponytail hairstyle, and also chose a cute pink kimono, which looked a little nondescript.

The four girls dressed up and radiant, and under the leadership of the priest, they performed a coming-of-age ceremony, which was the envy of the other members of Nogizaka 46, who were watching on the side.

"It's so beautiful!"

"Super, super cute to say. ”

"I'm so envious!"

Originally, the other members of Nogizaka 46 who were not yet adults were not used, but Uesugi Soyuki ordered everyone to come and see, so everyone came.

Uesugi Soyuki stood in the middle of the girls, looking at the coming-of-age ceremony over there, and clasped his hands to his chest: "Fukagawa?"

"Ah, Director Uesugi, what's the matter?" Mai Fukagawa trembled in fright when she heard that she was called.

"Four people, renting four sets of clothes, it cost us almost 600,000, it's really not cheap, do I want to thank you for the coming-of-age ceremony that has been done and saved us a lot of money?"

"Ahh

There was a girl who sneaked up to Uesugi Soyuki's side: "Director Uesugi, Shiraishi, they really look good!"

"Oh, it's Nanasa!" Uesugi Soyuki turned his head and found that Nanase Nishino didn't know when he appeared beside him: "Nanasai, congratulations on entering the god of good fortune again!"

"Hey, hey, hey~ Thank you, Director. Nishino Nanase blushed, bowed his head and said, a pair of small hands on the hem of the skirt in front of him, looking like he wanted to get closer but didn't dare to get closer.

"Nanasai's words, don't be envious, it's your turn next year. Uesugi Soyuki smiled and patted the girl on the shoulder.

"It's just, is it just my turn?" Nanase Nishino said in a low voice, blushing suddenly.

"Hmm, Nanasai, do you want anything else?" the man was interested.

"That... ”
