Chapter 126: To Niigata?

"Want to perform AKB48 at Sensoji Temple?"

Although Master Yuanjue is not old-fashioned, and even has a little bit of dabbling in popular fashion or something, he really can't accept Li Youtai's whimsical ideas. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sensoji Temple is a thousand-year-old temple that has always enshrined the statue of Kannon, and is a well-known incense shrine in the Tokyo area, and the spiritual realm of devout believers.

And what about AKB48? This girl group, which has only been in the army for more than three months, is at most a group of girls who have "club activities" after their studies in class, and they are not even Japanese pop idols.

It's just a noisy speck of dust in the red dust.

Therefore, such a thing as AKB48's public performance at Sensoji Temple was vetoed by Master Engaku at all.

One word, NO~

It's just that Master Yuanjue didn't reprimand Li Youtai for this idea.

Because when Lee Yo-tae talked about AKB48's public performance, he mentioned one thing: the Niigata earthquake in Japan.

On October 23, 2004, a strong earthquake measuring 6.8 on the Richter scale struck the Chuetsu region of Niigata Prefecture, Japan, followed by a strong earthquake of 5.9, 6.3 and 5.9 on the Richter scale at 18:12, 18:34 and 19:46 on the same day, and another earthquake of 6.0 on the Richter scale at 1,040 on October 27, 2004, four days later, causing serious economic losses and casualties. The earthquake killed 40 people, injured more than 4,500 people, left more than 100,000 homeless, damaged nearly 140,000 houses, and lost countless properties!

Lee Yo-tae mentioned to Wonjue that the AKB48 performance at Sensoji Temple was actually a charity performance to revive Niigata Prefecture, and all proceeds from the performance would be used for the reconstruction of Niigata Prefecture.

"Instead of holding a charity performance at Sensoji Temple, it is better to take those children and go to Niigata Prefecture in person." Master Yuanjue's eyes narrowed, and his hand flicked a rosary.

"Huh?"

"There are many people who donate money and materials, and there are also many Japanese Red Cross Society and non-governmental charitable organizations in Japan. After the earthquake, Sensoji Temple also donated a lot of supplies. However, not many people were able to attend the scene in person. I don't know what kind of combination AKB48 is. But I heard Hayato say that AKB48 is a girl idol group with the concept of idols who can meet face-to-face? ”

"Does the Master know about this, too?"

Master Yuanjue nodded, "Since that's the case, let's take those children to Niigata Prefecture!" Even encouraging the victims in the rubble is better than praying for their blessings at Sensoji Temple in Tokyo. Empathy is more important than anything else. ”

……

"Yutai, don't really be fooled by my father, and run to Niigata with AKB48. I've heard that there are still small aftershocks over there. ”

"Master Yuanjue's words are very reasonable."

"Huh? You're not playing for real, are you? ”

"What to do, after I go back, I have to discuss it with other people in the company."

"I realized that my dad really should be a politician."

"What nonsense."

"It's a pity that I fooled you in just a few words, and if you don't become a politician."

"You should also think carefully about Master Yuanjue's words." Hearing Tokugawa Hayato's words, Li Youtai was quite helpless, "If there is no reason, I won't be gullible!" ”

"Don't, I'm afraid I'll be brainwashed directly by him and accidentally shave my head."

"I don't talk nonsense with you. Let's go, if you have time, come to AKB Theater! ”

"Free admission?"

"You're embarrassed to talk to our conductor, and you'll go straight in."

"Who's your conductor?"

"A lot of times, Mariko Shinoda will make a cameo appearance as a conductor!"

"Oh~No!"

……

It is the first time that Sensoji Temple has held a coming-of-age festival since its founding, so there are many people who come to Sensoji Temple today to pray for the blessings of adults. Under the command of the AKB agency staff, some of the girls and pillars of AKB48 are waiting in line to enter the main hall to pray for adulthood, while most of the members who have not yet reached the age of 20 are running in unison to ask for the omamori (peace charm) for their relatives and friends.

When Lee Yo-tae returned from the Dharma Hall, the girls' prayers had not yet been completed.

"How? Was it rejected? Watanabe Shiho came to Li Youtai's side with a smile, holding a delicate pale yellow rectangular bag in his hand, and the word peace was embroidered on the bag, "Give, help you ask for it." ”

Li Youtai nodded and took the imperial guard handed over by Watanabe Shiho.

"Even I don't think it's safe to hold a public performance in a stately temple. Master Yuanjue didn't scold you, did he? ”

"That's not true, he's a monk, and no matter how unreasonable things are, he won't easily scold people. Besides, he's an old acquaintance of mine. He didn't agree to AKB48's public performance at Sensoji Temple, but he gave me an idea! ”

"Tell me about it."

"Shiho, what do you think about us bringing AKB48 directly to Niigata Prefecture and performing it live?"

"Huh? Live performance in Niigata Prefecture? ”

"Hmm~ Live performance in Niigata Prefecture. Isn't AKB48 an idol you can meet face-to-face? At the reconstruction site in Niigata Prefecture, they are cheering for the victims of the disaster, and this is the only thing they have now. ”

"If I go to Niigata Prefecture, what about the daily performances of the AKB Theater? The otaku are looking forward to the theater performance every day. One more thing, Yu, do you think AKB48's theater performance is suitable for performing in Niigata Prefecture, which has just suffered a disaster? ”

Absolutely not suitable.

The victims of Niigata Prefecture are still in grief, and it would be strange if AKB48 had run over there and had a party started, and would not have been stoned to death by bricks.

If you really want to perform live in Niigata Prefecture, the repertoire of the performance will need to be completely replaced.

"There is nothing wrong with Master Yuanjue's advice, the problem is that these suggestions must be based on the current situation of AKB48."

Li Youtai nodded, "How to do it, after I go back, I will discuss it with Uncle Sato." ”

"Yo, there are some things that are useless to rush."

"Hmm~ I see." Li Youtai looked at the imperial guard, and then stuffed it into his pocket, "Shiho, I suddenly found that it has only been the New Year, and you have matured a lot." ”

"Intrigued?" Watanabe Shiho bit his lip, "I'll just say it if you want to." ”

"Huh? When I didn't say anything. ”
