Atsuko Maeda took a closer look and found that the person was lawyer Zhu Zi, who had seen their performance in the theater.
"Hello Mr. Zhu Zi. Atsuko Maeda hurriedly walked over and bowed to Zhu Zi in greeting.
"Maeda?" said Zhu Zi greeted the girl with a smile.
"Maeda, just now Mr. Zhu Zi said that how many of us will become national idols in the future?" Tomomi Itano said happily to Atsuko Maeda.
Atsuko Maeda smiled shyly, in her heart, Zhu Zi's words may just be to encourage them, national idols, that can't even be thought of.
"A-chan, why are your eyes red?" Takahashi Minami was careful and discovered Atsuko Maeda's abnormality.
"I'm fine, let's go back. It's not early. Atsuko Maeda said to Minami Takahashi, Tomomi Itano, and Natsumi Hirashima.
"Mr. Zhu Zi, bye-bye!"
"Bye-bye!"

On February 2, AKS's single "Cherry Blossom Petals", the first single produced by AKS48, was released.
Strictly speaking, this single is an underground single.
In fact, several songs have been used in theater performances. However, after consulting with supporters, producer Yasu Akimoto decided that this song was the most popular, so he chose it as the track for his debut single.
This single also lived up to the expectations of Yasushi Akimoto and the members.
Immediately after its release, it entered the top 50 of the public trust list, and the final ranking was ranked in the top 10.
The outstanding sales attracted the attention of major record labels, including Sony Music, the record label of AKB.
The excellent sales results have also given the girls a shot in the arm, and the girls are looking forward to their future at AKB.
But it was at this time that the first graduating member of AKB48 appeared.
This member is Yuki Usami, who has a pretty good relationship with Mariko Shinoda.
As one of the oldest members of AKB48, Yuki Usa, who is already 22 years old this year, aims to make her singer debut. In these snow hours at AKB48, the girl learned a lot, but she also knew a lot.
Especially after Atsuko Maeda was identified as an ACE member, she already knew that Yasushi Akimoto valued girls who were younger and had amateur backgrounds more, and a girl like her who had acting experience in the re-art industry would of course not be valued, and it could be said that there was no chance at all.
Instead of wasting time staying in the group like this, it is better to make her debut independently, after all, she is 22 years old.
A girl doesn't have much youth to waste.
"Mariko, I'm going to make my solo debut, bless me. After announcing that she was going to graduate, Yuki Usami left Mariko Shinoda alone.
"Why? Didn't you just join, why did you choose to leave in such a hurry? Mariko Shinoda asked puzzled.
"Because I can't see opportunities here.,Akimoto-sensei.,What they like are amateurs like A-chan and Takahashi.,Or popular members like Maimai and Saina-chan.,Members like me who are older, unpopular, and have been in the entertainment industry are not valued and liked.,After the second generation is born.,My chances may become even less.ć I didn't want to waste my time waiting endlessly, so I chose to graduate. Yuki Usami said with a pretended relaxation.
Mariko Shinoda stared at her friend for a few moments: "You're not reconciled, are you? If it were me, I would definitely be unwilling." ā
"If you are unwilling, but what is the use of being unwilling? You have not been mixed in the entertainment industry, and you still don't know how cruel the competition in the entertainment industry is. Yuki Usami sighed.
Mariko Shinoda suddenly fell silent.
"Mariko?"
"What's wrong?" said Moriko Shinoda looked confused.
"Take the initiative to blend in with everyone, they are all good people. In the future, you must all support each other, after all, no matter what, you are a member of the first semester. I believe that your future will be very bright, no matter what difficulties and setbacks you encounter, please persevere. I want to see if my peers like me can become national idols. Yuki Usami suddenly said very solemnly to Mariko Shinoda.
Mariko Shinoda was silent, and after a long time, the girl nodded heavily.
"Mitomoki, I'll let you see this day. ā
Yuki Usami suddenly smiled: "Dry daddy!"

Zhu Zi looked at Koike Chehei and Masami Nagasawa, who were sitting opposite him, with a little headache.
I just bought a CD of "Cherry Blossom Petals" today, but I was blocked in the office by these two people.
So it was a stalemate.
"Sesame-chan, Koike, how did you two remember me? It was Zhu Zi who broke the silence.
Masami Nagasawa snorted lightly, and a pair of big eyes looked up and down Zhu Zi's body.
"Zhu Zijun, the two of us came here mainly to ask for your help. Koike Tetsuhei smiled harmlessly, like a little angel.
Zhu Zi's vigilance immediately mentioned the highest price level.
"What the hell are you two trying to do?"
"Zhu Zijun, don't be nervous? Do you know the TBS All-Star Appreciation Festival?" asked Koike Tetsuhei.
Zhu Zi shook his head: "I don't know, what kind of show is this?"
"To be sure, it's a quiz program, which is held twice a year in spring and twice in autumn. The number of celebrities mobilized each time exceeds 200, including comedy artists, idols, singers, actresses, and so on. Tetsuhei Koike explained.
"But does this have anything to do with your coming to me today?" Zhu Zi looked inexplicable.
"Our "Dragon Sakura" crew will also participate in the TBS All-Star Appreciation Festival this spring, but our number is still short, so we came over to invite Zhu Zijun to join us. Koike Tetsuhei said.
"How many people do you need to participate?" asked Zhu Zi curiously.
"There are four people, but at present, there are only three people in our crew: me, Sesame sauce and gakki, and there is still one person missing. Koike Tetsuhei said.
"That's not right, what about Abe-san?"
"Abe-san can't come because he has to shoot a Japanese drama and can't stagger the schedule. Masami Nagasawa said.
"Where's that guy down the hill?"
"Don't mention that guy, he's going to fight for the Fraud Hunter crew. Koike Chehei said angrily.
Zhu Zi's eyes rolled: "It's really a pity, in fact, I have already agreed to someone else's invitation." ā
