Chapter 300, The Furious Electricity Routine
PS. There is one more shift in the evening. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After being intervened by Dentsu, it took AKS about 20 minutes to delete the apology video from YouTube, and by the time it was deleted, the video had already received more than 1.5 million views.
On February 1st, after a long period of urgent discussions, the AKS side made an urgent decision to announce on the blog of Tonobu Togasaki, the director of the theater, that he would downgrade Minami to a graduate student.
This method of dealing with it is not alarming, but the turmoil is far from over.
On the same day, the BBC, The Guardian, CNN, New York Daily News, ABC, Global Times, Al Jazeera, and almost all of the world's leading news magazines reported and reprinted the news.
Many foreign media articles have severely criticized the Japanese for violating the so-called "regulations prohibiting love" and forcing them to shave their heads and apologize! They believe that this is a kind of violation of human rights, and some foreign lawyers have even come forward and expressed their willingness to help Feng'an Nan fight the lawsuit, and he is completely sure that he will win the case.
A day after the incident, the news and photos of Minami were reposted more than 3 million on Facebook around the world, and the situation intensified, with many foreign human rights organizations coming forward to issue a statement strongly condemning AKB48's "love prohibition ordinance" that dehumanizes humanity and violates human rights.
Seeing this, Dentsu's Nakata executive couldn't sit still anymore: "Help me inform Mr. Uesugi of Sony Music! Ask him to move to AKS, and I'll meet him over there!"
"Understood!"
"Ahhh
Soyuki Uesugi, who works at Sony Music, soon received an "invitation" from Dentsu.
The man frowned, and began to think about the ins and outs of this post in the memory of the tech nerd.
After getting permission from the operation, Minami shaved her head on her own initiative and uploaded the video of her apology to the Internet, which has a bit of a "cut first and then play" flavor, and also has a bit of the "sudden announcement" style that Yasushi Akimoto likes, Uesugi Soyuki doesn't know if this is an idea that Minami Mine has come up with herself, or if someone instigated her to do it, but this girl's behavior is an out-and-out huge failure.
The starting point for the girl to do this is very simple, first, she definitely doesn't want to leave AKB, because Feng Annan is not a good-looking and talented girl, her praised variety show is only acceptable among idols, and she can't make waves when she leaves the idol circle, so out of consideration for the future, she must stay.
Second, she used this cruel means of "self-punishment" to ensure that the operation would not fire her, because for the Eastern culture, shaving her head is a very serious punishment, and after she did this kind of thing, the operation is not very good to fire her.
Her purpose was achieved.
However, the ensuing reaction exceeded everyone's expectations, and the strange incident of "being forced to shave his head to apologize because of love" made the entire international attention focus on AKB.
So, is the ban on love really a kind of behavior that destroys humanity and violates human rights, as those human rights organizations say, and should be banned?
In Uesugi Soyuki's view, the prohibition of love is not without reason, nor is it unreasonable.
In layman's terms, since you eat this bowl of rice, you must abide by the rules of this industry, which is the most basic professional ethics.
Idols sell a kind of image, how can this group of girls with average talent and average appearance win so much popularity? Becoming popular in this country? Isn't it just by relying on the image of "love forbidden" (leaving room for fans to imagine)? If you really want to get rid of this image, only a few can survive in the circle.
So since you can get the support of so many fans and absorb so much popularity by relying on the "love ban", you will say that this thing violates human rights? What did you do a long time ago? You just want to take benefits, and you don't want to take responsibility?
That's a double standard.
"Love forbidden" is accompanied by the obligation of the Feiqiu idol, since it has been violated, it must be condemned and punished, instead of standing up at this time and saying "love is reasonable, free and innocent".
But the so-called "human rights organizations" in foreign countries don't care about this, and those so-called "boiled fighters" are all experts in mouth, and after more than two years in foreign countries, Uesugi Muneyuki knows best the horror of those "political correctness" in the West.
As long as they touch it a little bit, those "boiled fighters", "protectionists", "human rights organizations" and the like can come out and spray wildly until the person concerned apologizes.
Unfortunately, Feng Annan's behavior of shaving his head and apologizing attracted the attention of these people.
In the future, it will be difficult for Hiaki's group to go abroad! Uesugi Muneyuki packed up her things, walked out of her office, and went to AKS to meet Nakata Executive.
When he came to the side of the road downstairs of the Don Quixote Building in Akihabara, Uesugi Muneyuki saw Managing Director Nakata, who was holding back his anger and constantly flipping through the latest issue of the weekly Bunharu: "Hello, Managing Director Nakata, this is going to AKS? Why did you suddenly call me over?"
When Nakata saw Uesugi Soyuki coming, he barely squeezed out an ugly smile on his face, looking more uncomfortable than crying: "Really, I never thought that I had just taken over the JPN47 project, and these things actually happened, which made Uesugi smiling." ”
"It happened, and now it's a matter of how to fix it. "Uesugi Muneyuki is calm.
Nakata took an iPad from his subordinates and handed it to Uesugi Soyuki: "Uesugi-kun, can you have a way to get YouTube to take these videos off the shelves?"
Uesugi just took it and shook her head: "It's true that I have a stake in YouTube, but I'm neither the FBI nor the CIA, how can I have the ability to take these videos off the shelves? ”
It turned out that even though Dentsu's apology video was deleted only an hour after it was posted, countless people still left backups, and Nakata found more than a dozen videos on YouTube that had been re-uploaded by fans, but he was unable to get the website to take them down.
Nakata slapped the back of his right hand on the palm of his left hand vigorously: "Damn! Now these videos have millions of views! I can't imagine what will happen if this continues, and now AKB48 has become the object of ridicule all over the world!"
Suddenly, Dentsu mobilized its own power to let the mainstream media calm down the matter, but there are still many online media and forums that continue to ferment the matter, which is powerless for Dentsu, at this time Dentsu remembered Uesugi Soyuki, but Uesugi Soyuki said that he was not able to stop a topic that had been retweeted millions of times.
It was too late.
Nakata only felt that there was a fire in his heart, and he didn't know how to vent.
He is in his fifties this year, which is a relatively old age in the workplace, but for a company like Dentsu, he is young in his fifties on the board of directors, and he became the managing director in his fifties.
Seeing that there was no room for recovery, Mr. Nakata entered the AKS company with a large group of Dentsu staff.
A group of men and women in suits swaggered in, and the scene was quite spectacular.
Tomoshin Togasaki, the director of the AKB theater, came out to greet him with a group of staff, as if he knew that something was wrong, and all the staff members stood in two rows as if they were facing a great enemy.
Not only that, but Gen A's AKB chief supervisors, Minami Takahashi, and Gen A's Yona Kojima were also present.
Seeing the Managing Director of Dentsu in person, followed by Director Uesugi of Sony Music, Togasaki Tomonobu Togasaki bowed and saluted: "Hello! Managing Director Nakata, I'm very sorry for what happened this time!"
"Okay, without further ado, what about President Wata? Nakata saw that AKS's attitude was very respectful, so he said with a strong anger.
"Uh... Our president is not in the club. Togasaki Tonobu said with his head bowed.
"What's going on, and the president isn't in the club?" asked Nakata angrily.
At this time, a cadre from Dentsu came up from behind: "Executive, the year before last, because the "Weekly Bunharu" broke the scandal about President Kuwata and its member Mariko Shinoda, President Wataa rarely comes to the company now in order to avoid suspicion, which Akimoto Yasusu told us. ”
"Wenchun, it's Wenchun again?!Did the weekly Wenchun send a squadron of people to keep an eye on you? The whole company, from the president to the little idol, there is no one who can make people feel at ease!" Nakata scolded angrily, and Togasaki Tomonobu and the others didn't even dare to say anything, so they could only apologize all the time.
"Forget it, what about you President Shiba, tell him to come out and speak!" Since Akimoto Yasusu was angry about this matter, Nakata continued to ask Shiba Kotaro.
"That... President Shiba: He rarely comes to the company. The sweat on Togasaki's face was down, and he could predict what Nakata would ask next.
"President Shiba ???is not there, either" Nakata only felt that his anger was rising: "What about Yasushi Akimoto?"
"This... Producer Akimoto is not in the club now, and we don't know where he is. Togasaki Tomonobu could only smile at all, yesterday Akimoto Yasu saw that something was wrong, so he handed over all the affairs here to these people, and disappeared himself.
Hearing that Yasusu Akimoto was not in the club, Nakata took a deep breath, stomped the heels of his black leather shoes on the ground, and said angrily: "A K S, there is no one at the critical moment, how can we Dentsu rest assured that we will have such a big cooperation with you!!"
The managing director of Dentsu was furious, and the operation cadres of AKS all subconsciously lowered their heads, and only Togasaki Tomonobu walked up under pressure: "I can report to you about the current situation... ”
“boom!!!”
Halfway through the theater's words, Nakata picked up the "Weekly Bunharu" in his hand and twitched it against Togasaki's face, and the hard spine hit Togasaki's swarthy face with a loud noise.
The audience was silent, and Togasaki Tomonobu subconsciously reached out and touched a red mark on his face, then lowered his head and said nothing.
"Report you MLGB!You deserve it too?!"
After speaking, Nakata raised his leg directly and was about to kick Togasaki Tomonobu's body.
