Chapter 678: Heavy Punch!
The turmoil on the stage of Nami Okujin is getting worse and worse, and almost all the media in the entertainment industry are paying close attention to the events that may lead to the breakup of AKB. Many media are waiting for the attitude of Yasushi Akimoto, AKS, Ota Office, and other parties, but so far no one has expressed any opinion on this matter except for the former members of AKB. 、
On March 28, two girls, Atsuko Maeda and Tomomi Itano, who have been being followed, successively made remarks on their social networking sites.
Atsuko Maeda wrote on her Twitter that O'Oku has become the only member to win the AKB48 championship so far, and she deserves to be treated accordingly. In the entertainment industry, Xiao Ao is more well-known and recognized by more people, so you should understand
Although Atsuko Maeda's words did not directly highlight his attitude, many people have already seen the meaning of his words. In this matter, the former AKB48ACE Atsuko Maeda, Yuko Oshima, and Mai Oshima all chose to stand on the side of supporting Nami Okumana, and it can even be said that all the veteran members of the AKB have chosen to support Nami Okumanami!
Atsuko Maeda's opinion made most fans begin to besiege Yasushi Akimoto, AKS and Haruka Shimazaki, although Atsuko Maeda has graduated from AKB for two years, her influence among AKB fans and members is a real existence, and AKB's face is no joke.
After Atsuko Maeda, Itano Tomomi also said something meaningful, she has a very good relationship with Haruka Shimazaki and Nami Okumana, and it is difficult to choose on this matter, but under pressure from the media, Itano Tomomi finally expressed her opinion on this matter.
"Xiao Ao is AKB and now ACE!" A simple sentence already indicates Tomomi Itano's opinion.
At the same time, AKB48's theater performances were empty for several times due to this incident, and this rare phenomenon reminded many of the staff members of AKB48's early days. It was a very difficult stage. The members are really starting to get scared!
On March 30, a report in Weekly Wenchun completely ignited the anger of AKB fans!
Takashi Notera, 38, the former chairman of AKB's agency, was arrested on suspicion of molesting an elementary school girl, and when the Japanese police conducted a computer search, they found that there were as many as 75 AKB candid images inside. The total duration was more than 15 hours, and more than 200 photos were taken. During his tenure from 2009 to 2010, he installed pinhole cameras in the backstage of theaters, restrooms, dressing rooms, and other places, and secretly filmed intimate videos of AKB members changing clothes and going to the toilet, as well as naked footage of suspected underage members trying on clothes.
The former senior executive himself admitted that he had discovered that he had a pedophilia since he was 30 years old, but the police eventually only charged him with indecent assault on an elementary school girl, and he has not yet been charged with secretly filming AKB48, and the senior executive was finally sentenced to one year and four months in prison for indecent assault and was just released from prison in January this year.
According to the source. The candid filming locations included the AKB Theater locker room, the backstage lounge of NHK's "Red and White Song Contest", hotel rooms and nanny cars, etc., and Takashi Notera personally set up a camera to secretly film the members changing clothes, and one-third of the footage was recorded in the footage of the members going to the toilet through a camera placed in the bathroom. It is known that Takashi Notera has always been trusted by AKB48 members, and in one of the videos, in the name of massage, he is suspected of touching the chest and thighs of a main member lying on the bed in clothes in the resort hotel room where the group stayed on location.
After the news came out. It's like the entertainment industry has experienced a tsunami! Almost everyone was incredulous that this could have been the work of the AKS higher-ups, and it was quickly confirmed by local security.
Public opinion and angry fans began to besiege AKS. As the official brokerage company of AKB48, such a scandal happened at the top of their management, which is not just a violation of professional ethics, but a violation of the law.
Angry fans began to chant online for AKS executives to apologize collectively, and some radical fans even said that if AKS executives didn't apologize themselves, then their fans would take action spontaneously!
March 31. According to the follow-up report of "Weekly Wenchun", in addition to AK, the relevant personnel of the Ota office were also involved in this matter! ~
The Ota office's Takano Wai, who was already in a very dangerous position in public opinion, spread rumors, saying that this matter had nothing to do with Ota, and AKS, as AKB48's brokerage company, should be fully responsible. And judging from the past two years, AKS is no longer suitable to be an AKB48 brokerage company!
In the afternoon, Akihabara, Don Quixote AKS headquarters.
All the media reporters gathered here, waiting for the appearance of Natsuko Yoshisari, chairman of AKS.
This morning they received an invitation from AKS Office, where AKS is here to apologize for a series of things that have happened before!
At two o'clock in the afternoon, a haggard Natsuko Yoshinari and the chief producer of AKB48 appeared at the press conference.
The flash kept flashing.
"As the chairman of AKS, I am deeply responsible for what happened before, and now I would like to apologize to the AKB members, former members, and their parents who have lost their reputation for this incident, and I'm sorry!"? Natsuko Yoshinari bowed deeply to everyone in the audience.
The reporters in the audience looked solemn and did not make any sound, only the sound of the camera clattering.
"Second, I would like to apologize to the fans and people who have been following AKB48 for their continued attention, and I'm so sorry that AKS has disappointed AKB members and the single production management!"
The expression on Yasushi Akimoto's face on the stage was solemn, and at the same time a little heavy, that man's methods were really terrifying!
The continuous heavy punches made him and AKS not have the slightest power to parry.
"Thirdly, it hurts the hearts of AKB members, and AKS has decided to transfer the remaining general operating rights of AKB48! I will also officially resign from my position as chairman of AKS Office! Yoshinari Natsuko apologized again to the media reporters in the audience.
There were many fans outside, and when they heard that AKS was going to transfer the remaining general operating rights of AKB48, the fans couldn't help but cheer. (To be continued.) )
