Chapter XXVII
"What?!, you say Shiraishi is a spy?" Aoyama asked in shock.
Abbot Nakazato nodded very affirmatively and replied: "That's right, in fact, this Shiraishi Mitsuen is a disciple of Inamoto, and this is not the first time he has done this kind of undercover work, he has been to Haneda's abbot Guangenji bar to be an undercover agent before, this time I learned that he infiltrated Aoyama Abbot Your Kobo Temple, so I came to remind you." ”
"Oh, so that's what happened!" At this time, Qingshan understood why the task of "Zhike" was always unfinished, and it turned out that he had recruited a spy, but despite this, he still used a "Buddhist Calculation Technique" on Shiraishi, and then confirmed that he was indeed a disciple of Inamoto, so he thanked Nakazato: "Thank you Abbot Nakasato, if it weren't for your reminder, I would still be deceived by this undercover agent." ”
"Abbot Qingshan, you are too polite, we should help each other. I just wonder if you'd like to join our alliance?"
Qingshan hesitated for a moment, and then said, "This, Abbot Zhongli, this matter is really too big, can you give me some time to let me think about it?"
Abbot Nakazato immediately agreed: "This is naturally no problem, after all, such a big matter, it is impossible to draw conclusions immediately, so I will wait until after the press conference to hear your good news from Abbot Aoyama, okay?"
Speaking of the press conference, Aoyama suddenly remembered something, and then asked Abbot Nakazato: "By the way, Abbot Nakazato, there will definitely be a song and dance performance at this celebration of yours, right?"
The abbot of Nakazato nodded and replied: "This has to be there naturally, after all, is it the launch of the theme song, and when the time comes, our designer Toro Mei of the Dharma Temple will sing this song himself." (This Toro Mei is the designer who single-handedly planned and designed the entire Hoji Moe Ka image, and she herself is a famous singer, illustrator, and voice actress among the Akihabara otaku.) )
"Then don't I need to help you contact a combination of Akihabara to cheer up, okay?" Aoyama proposed.
"Hey, Abbot Aoyama, do you have an artist you are familiar with?" asked Abbot Nakazato with some curiosity.
"Well, I know a few members of the AKB48 group in Akihabara, I can help you ask, they are also quite popular among otaku. ”
"AKB48, I've heard this group mentioned by the believers, but if you can really help you get in touch with them, Abbot Aoyama, it will be a great help. ”
"It's supposed to help each other, you wait for me to contact the AKB. With that, Aoyama made a call to Mariko: "Mariko, I want to ask you something, now do you AKB accept the contract for the performance outside?"
Mariko thought for a moment, then replied, "Going out?" it depends on the place, if it's a bar or something, we definitely won't go there." ”
"Of course it's not a bar, you remember the Dharma Temple, right? It's the cute temple I told you about last time. ”
"Oh, remember, remember, I also went to buy a Bencaitian Buddha statue from them, it's really cute!"
"Next week, the Dharma Temple will launch the theme song "Love of the Dharma Temple", and hold a celebration similar to a fan club, I am quite familiar with the abbot of the Dharma Temple, I don't know if you are interested in singing a few songs?"
"That's a good thing, but I can't be the master of this matter, so let's wait for me, and I'll ask Mr. Yasushi Akimoto. ”
"Okay, wait for your good news. ”
At this time, Yasu Akimoto was not actually in Tokyo, but in Nagoya. Since DEF STAR Records terminated its contract with AKB, Yasu Akimoto was running around in the hope of finding a new direction and a way out for AKB, and this time he found a new partner in Nagoya: Kyoraku Sangyo, a large Nagoya developer of amusement rides.
Kyoraku built a landmark building in Nagoya called "Sakae", a comprehensive shopping mall with a mini observation car, named "Sunshine Sakae". Bringing his experience in the AKB48 project, Yasu Akimoto plans to use the theater on the second floor as a new starting point for Nagoya to create a new girl idol group for Nagoya, which aims to be loved by local young people, mainly composed of local girls. The Japanese pronunciation of Rong is "Sakae", so the name of this new group is "SKE48".
Although it turned out that Yasushi Akimoto played this move very beautifully, in 2008, when rumors of AKB's dissolution were heard from time to time, it is difficult to say whether this was a sign that Yasuya Akimoto intended to start anew......
Because now Mariko Shinoda is already the best member of the AKB members, not only has she become the exclusive model of "MORE", but the agency has also released a photo album for her, so she still attaches great importance to her phone call, and picks it up as soon as possible: "Mariko, what's wrong?
"That's right, Mr. Akimoto, a friend of mine is very familiar with the Nakazato abbot of Hoji, and next week Hoji is going to hold a small fan meeting for the theme song of their temple, and I want to invite our AKB to perform in the past, so please ask you. ”
"The temple still has a theme song, and the temple doesn't seem to be a good place for us to perform in the past, right?" said Akimoto Yasu, a little confused.
After Mariko explained the magic of the temple, Akimoto Yasushi suddenly realized: "Ah, it's that wonderful two-dimensional temple, it's quite appropriate to say this, after all, the target market is the same, then okay, you promise him for me." By the way, when the time comes, I will personally lead the team to try to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with this abbot of Zhongli. ”
The reason why Yasu Akimoto agreed so happily is because this time is the darkest hour of AKB, the record company terminated, rumors of dissolution are frequent, the members of the first phase leave the team one after another, and the indiscriminate murder incident in Akihabara, the popularity and morale of the entire team have been depressed to the extreme, otherwise Yasu Akimoto would not have any plans to start anew.
And now that he has such a good publicity opportunity, he naturally won't let it go, but what he doesn't know is that the biggest help he has on this trip to the Dharma Temple is not the abbot of the Dharma Temple, Nakazato Hihitaka, but the abbot of the Hongfa Temple, Kosuke Aoyama.
At this time, Kosuke Aoyama was also facing an unexpected temptation.
PS: I recently had a great idea, I plan to make the protagonist do something absolutely unexpected after twenty or thirty chapters, and make up for one of my creative regrets.
