Nango Yui simply told Uesugi Soyuki his idea, and it can be seen that Nango Yui has been thinking about this plan for a long time, and he said a lot in one go, from operation, to style, to bundle sales and peripheral plans.

Yui Nango is an avid fan of AKB himself, and while he invests a lot of his salary, he also learns a lot of things, and a lot of content goes straight to the core.

Uesugi Soyuki listened to his gushing remarks, just smiled and nodded lightly.

"Uh, Mr. Uesugi, is there anything wrong with what I said?" Nango Yui talked for a while, only to find that Uesugi Soyuki's reaction was not very positive, so he had to stop.

"Can you answer me a question first?" Uesugi Muneyuki clenched his right hand into a fist, placed it on the table, and pushed his glasses with his left hand: "You just kept mentioning the word "rough stone" repeatedly, so can you tell me what the producer Akimoto-sensei's 'rough stone theory' is? ”

"The original inconspicuous stone in the deep mountains, with a hidden mystery, was purchased by people who knew the goods, and after careful polishing, it would reveal a moving brilliance, this is the original stone theory of Akimoto-san!"

"So, what do you think of Akimoto-sensei's theory?"

"Quite good, Akimoto-san, the members selected according to this vision are not good at first, but over time, the rough stone will gradually exude a beautiful brilliance and become a brilliant diamond. ”

"Yes, Mr. Akimoto, he has a unique way of looking at people, after the girls he selected, they look average, but after going through makeup and the girl's self-growth, the appearance will be at least a notch. For this, as a fan of AKB, Nango Yui admires Yasushi Akimoto very much, and the girls selected according to his method will become a lot more beautiful when they grow up, and in Uesugi Soyuki's opinion, Yasushi Akimoto's is his ability, and he can't learn it.

Then Uesugi Soyuki took out Yui Nango's report from the drawer and threw it on the table: "So your report is that we recruit students, mainly to recruit some good seedlings aged 12-16, and then cultivate them for a few years, and then become popular?"

"This is the secret of AKB48's success!" Nango said puzzled, in his opinion, his plan perfectly replicates the success of AKB, if it can really be as Uesugi Soyuki hinted before that Yasuya Akimoto can be brought in as a producer, then as long as after a few years of growth, these good seedlings can shine like AKB.

Uesugi Soyuki chuckled and shook his head: "In a few years? Are you sure, in a few years, you can really be popular?"

Then, Uesugi got up from his chair and stood up, he took out a stack of newspapers and magazines from the cabinet behind him and put them on the table: "You can see for yourself." ”

Although Nanxiang Wei didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the director's gourd, his superiors had an order, so he obediently flipped through these magazines and newspapers.

Nango, if you're not a fan of AKB and don't like AKB, how would you feel when the magazines and newspapers you buy are AKB news?"

"Uh... Director Uesugi, can you be clear?"

"Thinking fatigue,In the face of such a huge amount of information continuous bombardment,People will find it interesting at first,After a long time,It will be fatigued,And,A few years later, it will start to exert force,Akimoto Yasushi estimates that he has already opened the 48G family overseas。 Uesugi threw the magazines and newspapers directly into the trash: "You participated in the general election, right?"

"Yes. ”

"General election, what do you think it is?"

"On the surface, it is the operation that gives fans the opportunity to influence the operation and improve the position of their idols, but in fact, from a business point of view, the general election is the in-depth exploration of the purchase potential of the rice by AKB management, and through the personal participation of the idols they push, to force some fans who are unwilling to spend money or simply pay attention to the current situation of the group, and watch the performance of those loose fans to open their wallets and take out real money. As a person in the fan circle, Nanxiang only has a calm heart, and he answers this question almost perfectly from the perspective of rushing to the operation as a fan.

"Yes, the general election is a deep excavation of the purchasing potential of the rice group, but isn't it a deep consumption of the enthusiasm for the rice? Do we have to wait a few years to watch Yasushi Akimoto's AKB consume all the enthusiasm of the whole RB rice, so that they all feel tired of the female idols, and then start to exert their strength?" Uesugi Soyuki's words made Nango Yui Daigo empowered, he thought about it for a while, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

If Uesugi Muneyuki really put this project up, then he will be the one who will take the blame!

"Let's talk about the rough stone again, let me say this, do you think that the so-called rough stone selected by Mr. Akimoto, even if it has undergone polishing and polishing, completely exudes brilliance, and its fineness can be compared to the most dazzling ones in the entertainment industry, such as Yui Aragaki, Maki Horikita, Masami Nagasawa and others?" The Parker gold pen in Zong Xue's hand rotated along his thumb, and then was held tightly by him.

"Of course not. Without hesitation, Yui Nango gave the answer.

"So, since the carefully selected rough stones, even if they are completely polished and formed, are not as good as those diamonds with perfect color and quality, why is Yasu Akimoto still so obsessed with choosing those ugly rough stones? Uesugi continued, as if asking him, as if asking himself.

Nango Yui's delicate face showed a confused expression, he thought carefully for a long time, and finally asked tentatively: "Is it to save costs? ”

"That's one of the reasons, it's true that buying a diamond directly from the market is enough to buy a lot of rough, but you still haven't gotten to the point. Uesugi finally got up from the comfort of his boss's chair and closed the door to his office, leaving him and Nango alone in the large office.

In fact, Yasushi Akimoto's idol group is not mainly selling the price of the diamond after the rough stone is processed into a diamond, but what he sells is the growth and the polishing process of the rough stone. ”

"At the beginning, I entered the group like an ugly duckling-like idol, and with the support of rice and the training of the operation, I gradually faded into a dazzling idol, and the core part of Akimoto Yasu's concept is this. ”

"Those dazzling idols who are really fully matured will be sold by Yasu Akimoto, or AKS, to major firms at a certain price, that is, graduation. ”

Then the new members came up again, and the cycle continued. ”

"In the process of polishing the rough stone, the rice people watched the flaws be removed little by little, accompanied the idol to grow together, sprinted to the top with the idol, and finally sent their idol to the peak, which can be obtained is great satisfaction. ”

Nango Yui was shocked, he opened his mouth and couldn't speak for a long time.

"Why did Yasu Akimoto fail in the early stage, because he ignored the instant combat power too much, and felt that he could quickly make this group popular with his own reputation, however, idols are such a thing, quality is the last word, and in the early days of AKB, whether it is the quality of the songs, the quality of the dance, or the quality of the members themselves, they are quite average, so, Mr. Akimoto, he planted a heel here. ”

But in any case, he insisted that his rough stone theory has not changed, but he has constantly adjusted his strategy and method, and now, the overall quality of AKB has completely improved, and many rough stones have begun to show their brilliance inside, plus the adjustment of strategy has approached the demand for rice, and AKB's popularity is not surprising. ”

"But we're different!" Uesugi Soyuki's eyes sharpened: "What we need is combat power, resources, connections, and strength, we don't lack any of them, what we lack is time, and it is the most golden time for a female idol group." ”

"After inviting Yasu Akimoto to be the producer of the new idol group, we have to make this group popular immediately, so that the combat power is something we need to pay attention to. ”

"Uh-huh!" Nango Yui began to write down all the words that Uesugi Muneyuki said.

"Also, our style should be clearly different from AKB, but there must be a certain overlap, we have to learn from the good ones, and we have to give up the bad ones, and I don't want to keep mobilizing public relations resources to suppress the news of the members' underwear and drinking. ”

"AKB's posture was very low at the beginning, and that was to be able to quickly accumulate popularity in the early stage and give people a sense of closeness, so when female idols are becoming popular RB, we might as well put a higher posture, because Sony is not AKS, and the start is different. Uesugi continued.

In the next period of time, the two worked together to refine these drafts, of course, most of them were said by Zong Xue, and Nanxiang was only writing.

After packing up the draft, it was almost noon, Uesugi looked at the time and knew that it was time for lunch, so he stopped dictating, picked up the teacup and moistened his somewhat dry throat, and then said, "You have recently completed this project, can you finish it before Sunday this week?"

"I tried my best. Nango Yui didn't give a positive answer, after a morning's work, the new member was already very tired, and he didn't give a positive answer because he was not sure to finish it.

"Then next week, next Friday, before the board, it must be done. Uesugi also knew that it would be difficult for him to ask a newcomer to do such a big project in a few days.

"By the way, Director Uesugi, what is the name of this project?" As soon as he pushed open the door, Nango Yui paused and asked more.

Uesugi Soyuki seemed to be suddenly frozen, the look on his face was constantly changing, there was excitement, regret, sadness, and joy, but more than that, it was a kind of relief.

"Director Uesugi?"

"It's called... Let's call it the Nogizaka Project. ”
