Chapter 309: Something Happened to Hirashima Natsumi
NHK Conference Hall.
The old president called Toshi Makino into the office and slapped him hard in front of everyone!
"Who told you to do that?! He's Kagawa Ha! Who are you?! Do you think that being a little vice president is already amazing? Now get back in here and reflect on it! ”
"I'm sorry, President."
"Get out!" The elder waved his hand and didn't look at Makino.
Jun Makino bowed to the elder and left the conference hall in a gloomy manner.
It wasn't until Jun Makino left that the elder sighed.
"President, I think someone is deliberately doing bad things here to sow discord between us and Mr. Kagawa." A polite young man with glasses said.
"Well, I know. There will always be a time when the mastermind behind the scenes will be revealed, and now we will focus on the Red and White Song Club. ”
"I see, President."
Of course, Kagawa Yu won't know about the things in the conference room. He was sitting backstage watching the singing of the singers in front of him with relish, the first of the red group to start performing was Ayumi Hamasaki, and AKB48 was the second to appear, the time and order of the debut can be said to be quite high, and the special program of Ona Aina Koashida was in the front position. Hoshino was only able to play in the second half, and as for the white group's finale this year, SMAP sang the song "The Only Flower in the World", which is a very humanist song.
The two child stars, Aina Ashida and Fuku Suzuki, returned backstage after performing the special, because the two of them are minors, and they will not appear again in the future singing.
And Kagawa Yu also left with the little girl after watching a show. In the end, in this year's huge red-white showdown, the red group basically defeated the white group! The white group is all familiar faces this year. In addition, there are a lot of Genesys artists, which makes the audience feel a little aesthetically fatigued, and the performance of the red group this year is really good, so in the end, the red group beat the white group!
After the end of the Red and White Song Festival, the dawn of 2012 came.
On January 3, 2012, "letgo" sung by Mitsuru Hoshino and Nami Okumana was officially released on RB. The single sales have exceeded 800,000 copies within half a day of release, and the sales on the first day reached a terrifying 1.4 million copies!
When the public trust list and BLUESKUY announced this data, everyone was deeply shocked by this jaw-dropping result!
1.4 million in a single day!
Never before has a major region achieved such impressive results in the RB entertainment industry, and when AKB48's singles frequently broke various sales records, people began to become numb from the initial surprise, but when such a horrific one-day sales of "letitgo" came out, almost everyone's minds were blank.
The headlines on the front pages of the major media reported this news, but unlike all the previous media who gave Kagawa Yu beautiful words, this time the media praised Hoshino Man, the two girls of Okunami.
Even many media outlets feel that Nami Okumana should withdraw from AKB now. For this statement, Kagawa Yu reciprocated with a sneering attitude, although Nami Okujin is very popular now, but that is also based on the high popularity of AKB and the animated movie "Frozen", in fact, Nami Okujin is going to become a solo debut artist, and it is still far away, and Nami Okujin is being cultivated by himself as AKB's future ace, so he will not be a big loss if he graduates so soon!
The letitgo madness continues. The singles sold a staggering 2.67 million copies in a week, almost locking in this year's record awards in advance. The sales of the single have also become the highest-selling single in the music industry in the past 20 years, and it is also the sales record in the past five years in the world!
Taking advantage of this shareholder wind, "Frozen" was officially released in RB theaters on January 10, and the single-day box office of the movie reached 2.8 billion yen, although this result cannot be compared with "Spirited Away", but it is also a very good result! During this time. Almost all of the entertainment media's attention is on Frozen
In the days after the New Year, AKB members were given a short break. But this relaxed time didn't last long, and the members returned to the stage, a life that they were used to for the old members like Yuko Oshima, Tomomi Itano, and Atsuko Maeda. But for some of the new members. This kind of life is a kind of suffering, and several graduate students choose to graduate because they can't stand this hard life.
On January 12, Nikkan Sports magazine revealed a group of photos of AKB members dating men, and the protagonists in the photos are still Natsumi Hirashima and Yoshizawa Suomi, who are very old among AKB members! For a moment, AKB fans were furious, and they felt deeply betrayed.
The members of the AKB have been hit hard, especially Atsuko Maeda, Tomomi Itano, Minami Takahashi, and Yona Kojima, who are contemporaries of Natsumi and Hirashima. Natsumi Hirashima and a few of them, especially Atsuko Maeda, have a very good personal relationship, whether it is at the beginning of AKB, or after becoming famous, several people often have private dinners. Now that such a thing has happened in Hirashima Natsumi, it is really difficult for their hearts to accept.
Several people gathered in the AKB apartment, but the assembly was reluctant to speak first.
"Is Na-chan real?" After a long time, Feng Annan asked softly.
Takahashi Minami glanced at Atsuko Maeda, who had a gloomy expression, then looked at the other partners, and nodded slightly.
"And what punishment will she face?" This time it was Yona Kojima who was questioned.
"You can be fired, you can be demoted to graduate school." Takahashi Minami said softly.
"Let's go find Akimoto-sensei or Daddy, they can all forgive Kikuchi and the members of the ninth phase at the beginning, why can't NA-chan forgive, and for AKB, Na-chan sacrificed enough, what did she get! I'm going to find Mr. Akimoto, are you going? Atsuko Maeda suddenly stood up, and she looked at her friends with a blank face!
"Let's go!" Tomomi Itano was the second to stand up. (To be continued......)
