Chapter 72 AKB48 6th Selection General Election II
The general election continues.
"14th place, 40,089 votes, Nogizaka 46, concurrently AKB TEAM B, Rina Ikoma".
In a white AKB uniform, Rina Ikoma's blue and white plaid dress stands out.
Hearing her name, she looked blindly left and right, and she was already in a state of confusion when she participated in the general election for the first time.
The girl walked up to the microphone in a daze and said, "Okay, that~~ I'm Nogizaka 46, Rina Ikoma of AKB48 TEAM B." Can I ask a question? Do you know who I am?"
Hearing the cheers of the fans from the audience, the girl smiled for the first time: "Great, thank you!"
"I didn't expect to be selected at all, and when I was called by name just now, I couldn't figure out the situation at all. I don't know what to say now, but, but ......" The girl suddenly didn't know what to say, and her hesitant expression caused good-natured laughter in the room.
She smiled embarrassedly at the audience and continued, "I can stand here thanks to the support of the fans. They made 'Please Support' leaflets and distributed them in various places, and some people rode bicycles to their hometowns to spread the word. Where I didn't know, the fans have been working silently. ”
"I'm a part-time contender from an opponent's group, and I may have a lot of shocks, so I'm worried about what will happen to the general election, but now, I think it's great to be able to do it. ”
"I'm rooting for you!" "Ikoma is great!" "The fans cheered for you.
The girl beckoned in the direction of the source of the voice: "There are still many people who want to be thanked, and there are still many people in Toei who don't know me and the group Nogizaka 46 to which I belong, so I will take this opportunity to let everyone know more about Nogizaka 46 and me, I will work hard." Thank you very much. ”
After she finished speaking, she kept bowing on the stage until the host interjected.
Kazuo Tokumitsu asked, "How is Ikoma-san going to convey this good news to the people of Nogizaka?"
"Uh~~Ah, I'm sorry, that, right now the members of Nogizaka 46 are on stage, and everyone is performing. The girl's tone was filled with regret.
"Is that so?"
"Eh, isn't it?" the girl looked at the audience with a confused expression.
"Maybe they're all watching this moment. ”
The girl thought about it carefully and shook her head: "I shouldn't be watching, well, I can't see it." We have a show today, so when I meet the members tomorrow, I want to tell you the results with a smile. Because I couldn't do anything without them. It's really because of everyone's support that I was able to get such good results. ”
"Congratulations again!"
Shi Geqi looked at Ikoma on TV, "snorted", and said angrily: "Why can the members of Nogizaka 46 actually participate in the AKB general election, if she hadn't participated, Kaori Matsumura, whom I like, would have been able to enter the selection." ”
"Haha, there are a lot of ways in this, how can we outsiders say it clearly? Just like Akimoto Yasushi said, isn't this very interesting? Interesting will impress everyone. Tian Licheng replied.
Everyone stands in a different position, and naturally looks at the problem from a different angle.
AKB fans like Shi Geqi naturally think why should a member of Nogizaka 46 serve as AKB, not to mention a lot of AKB resources, but also squeeze out the ranking of his favorite members.
And the girls of Nogizaka unconsciously isolate Ikoma after she agrees to the manager's proposal to work part-time: Doesn't it seem that Nogizaka 46 has become a part of AKB? Isn't it clear that we are the formula opponents of AKB48? How can we be accessories of AKB?
But Sony's operations certainly don't think so. Through Ikoma's part-time job, Nogizaka got a lot of opportunities to be in the AKB group.
This made the other members brush up on a lot of presence, not to mention, and also attracted some AKB fans. Not only do more people know that AKB has a competitor, but it also increases the team's popularity outside the idol circle in disguise. Ikoma was selected in the AKB48 general election, which proves that the members of Nogizaka 46 are also capable of doing well in the AKB system.
"As for Yasu Akimoto, his voice in AKB has become smaller and smaller, AKB is such a big piece of cake, everyone wants to take a bite, and the current major shareholder Jingle has been secretly squeezing him out, so his life is not easy. ”
"One is facing internal friction and weakness at the peak, the other is on the upward trend and there are no constraints, and he is the chief producer on both sides, so it's no wonder that he will shift his main focus from AKB to the Sakamichi system (Nogizaka 46 and Keyakizaka 46) in the future. “
Just when Tian Licheng was thinking about it, the order of the general election had already reached the 11th place.
With 45,538 votes, Sakura Miyawaki from HKT made another leap forward and entered the selection group from 26th place last year.
Shi Geqi couldn't help but sigh: "It's really worthy of Sakura (Miyawa Sakura's nickname), it's amazing!"
Tian Licheng nodded and agreed: "Yes, in 12 years, she was the only HKT member in the circle, and last year she went from 47th to 26th." In the past two years, she has not only become more beautiful, but also her comprehensive ability has improved a lot. The operation is willing to push, the HKT boss is willing to help, plus he can steal the show, and the handshake will deal with it, and AKB's big TOP will not be able to escape in the future. The key is that she is still so young, a little girl in 98, I feel old. Eh, Lao Shi, do you say that girls from Kagoshima are particularly good at fishing? Yuki Kashiwagi is like that, and so is Sakura. ”
"Hmph, open your mouth and close your mouth to say little cherry blossoms, is there a little girl in 98 years and an old girl in 93 years and you are not much interested in it? The eldest lady's voice interrupted Lao Tian's talk, only to see the corners of her mouth curled up in a strange arc, holding her arms, and staring fiercely at the two people sitting in front of her.
"Haha, aren't we just discussing, how can the little girl look down on us? Besides, where does she have Yoshida, you look good. Hey, you say yes, Lao Shi?"
"En! Xiao Tiantian is right, you see, she is completely a little hairy child, there are no ups and downs in front of her, how can any man like it, haha, hehe. ”
Lao Shi hurriedly helped the original field, but unfortunately his words backfired, because the eldest lady is not rich!
Yoshida said with a straight face, "Huh?!Do you say it again?"
Lao Tian Lao Shi was silent under Yoshida's female power, and Tian Li set up a horse to change the topic and fire at the rest of Sakura.
"I think the shape of her face seems to have changed a little bit from when I first saw it, can't it be fine-tuned? You see, her cheeks seem to have been shaved and even the bridge of her nose has been padded. ”
"Well, you're right! Maybe you cut your eyelids and put on ...... hyaluronic acid."
"Hey, is it appropriate for you two big men to say that about a little girl?" The eldest lady was a little overwhelmed when she saw the two of them belittle Miyawaki Sakura without any discipline.
She stared at Sakura Ko, who was announcing her gratitude for the award, on the TV for a while: "When a girl grows taller, her face will be elongated by about 20%, and she seems to be fine, but it is difficult for me to see it." ”
"Aren't we all forced by you? If it weren't for the way you looked like you were going to eat people just now, would we have to slap your ass like this, obviously we are all cherry blossom pushers. Tian Licheng and Shi Geqi glanced at each other silently, and decided to avoid the eldest lady's edge, and it was better to pretend to be deaf and dumb in the later announcement.
Suda Akari, Takahashi Minami, Kojima Yona, Shimazaki Haruka, and Yamamoto Aya occupy 10 to 6 places, of which the difference in votes between Shimazaki in seventh place and Yamamoto in sixth place is only more than 300 votes, which also reflects the fierceness of the competition for God Seven in this general election.
"Fat Qiu's daughter can only go so far, although Shimazaki's salt counterpart character is very distinctive, but it can't please fans, obviously she's really beautiful. ”
Reina Matsui in fifth place, Rina Matsui in fourth place, and Yuki Kashiwagi in third place were also revealed, leaving only the final battle of kings.
