Chapter 368: The second phase of selection begins

Zhou Xiao chatted very happily with Yuko Oshima, although she was only seventeen years old, it can be seen that her years of career in the entertainment industry have made her a girl who knows how to air and pleases people, plus she has a cheerful personality that is a bit like a boy, as long as she wants to, I'm afraid no one will hate her.

After chatting, eating, and just like that, Yuko Oshima said, "That's ...... It's almost time, let's go home and see my dad. ”

"Huh? So fast? I...... I'm not ready yet, why don't we develop it again......? The 23-year-old and almost 24-year-old star said with a shy look on his face.

"What nonsense are you talking about, are you asking me to go home with me to persuade my father to agree to me going to Beijing!"

"Oh? Oh! I know! Good! No problem! I'll go and say no problem! Only then did Zhou Xiao react to what Yuko Oshima meant.

came out of the hotel, Zhou Xiao drove home with Yuko Oshima.

In the car, Yuko Oshima still said with some incredulity: "I didn't expect me to be able to bring you home...... It's magical. ”

"I hope your dad won't out without saying a word when he sees you bringing a man home." Zhou Xiao said.

"No, my grandma is the biggest in my family, and my grandma likes you very much." Yuko said.

"Oh? It's true? Zhou Xiao was surprised.

"Of course it's true, my grandma likes you so much, I even doubt that if you quarrel with my dad, my grandma will be on your side."

"That's an exaggeration, isn't it?"

"It's not an exaggeration at all, usually at home, if my dad sees something bad about you, my grandmother will beat him." Yuko said.

"That'...... Can I just go here? How is your grandmother's health? Don't scare yourself out of a heart attack or anything. Zhou Xiao said worriedly.

"Don't worry, she's in good health."

"Alright, let's go." As they spoke, the two had already driven to the door of Yuko Oshima's house.

When I got out of the car, it was already completely dark. Zhou Xiao followed the seventeen-year-old girl into her door.

Opening the door and entering the house, Yuko Oshima shouted into the room, "I'm back!" ”

"Coming back? Have you eaten? Kindness!? The girl's father came out of the house, and the first thing he saw was the man who was changing his shoes with Yuko Oshima, so he couldn't see his face clearly with his head down.

Although he can't see his appearance clearly, judging from the suit and tie and his very mature figure, this is obviously a social person.

"My daughter has always been mature and has a ...... relationship It's normal to have a boyfriend in society......" Yuko Oshima's father couldn't help but think.

Of course, when thinking so. He will also be very unhappy in his heart.

Then, after putting on his shoes, the man stood up straight.

"It's so high!" Yuko Oshima's father sighed in his heart, the height of one meter and eight is actually not a height that can be amazed, but who asked her to stand next to Yuko Oshima, and it can be seen from Yuko's height that the Oshima family is not excellent in the genetics of height, and her father is only in his early sixties, so it is normal to be so amazed.

But this idea only passed through the mind for a moment, and was quickly replaced by another thought.

"Zhou ...... Zhou Xiao!? Yuko Oshima's father shouted.

"Zhou Xiao? Which one is it? An old lady's voice came out of the room. Yuko's father's shouting was not small, and everyone in the back room was startled.

"Zhou Xiao is here!" Yuko's father held on to the door, pointed at Zhou Xiao at the door with a surprised face, and shouted to the people in the back room.

"What? Isn't Yuko back? Did she buy anything back? The voice of the back room approached little by little. Then, an old lady's head peeked out from the door.

"Hello Grandma Oshima, I'm Zhou Xiao!" The man in the entrance bowed very formally, stood up straight and bared his teeth. A perfect smile was revealed.

"Zhou ...... Zhou Xiao, ahhhhh ”

A few minutes after the chickens and dogs jumped, Zhou Xiao finally sat back in the living room with the three generations of the Oshima family, and officially introduced himself and the purpose of his here.

"So. Do you want to take my daughter to Tokyo and join your AKB48? Yuko's father grasped the most important part of the problem.

"That's right, uncle, please leave your daughter to me." Zhou Xiao said.

"I don't agree." Yuko's father said.

"Huh?" Zhou Xiao was surprised, Yuko Oshima has been a child star for ten years, how can she not agree to marry?

"My daughter is not so talented, she hasn't made it for ten years, and she has participated in a lot of auditions in the past few years and has not been taken seriously, and now you come and say that you want to sign her and give her a very important position in AKB, can she really do it?"

"Uncle, your daughter, you should be the person you know best, singing, dancing, acting, what's wrong with her? Today's idols are no longer the idols that everyone carefully selected twenty years ago, if Yuko is an idol, she must be the best one among idols, and she is the most promising person among idols to get rid of this identity and become a real star, I can assure you. Zhou Xiao said.

"But ......"

"What are you still here!? Zhou Xiao, if you don't believe anyone, I will believe you, I understand what you mean, and we will hand it over to you! Tomorrow you will go to Beijing! The withdrawal procedure was also done! Yuko's grandmother on the side couldn't stand it and said.

"Uh......" Zhou Xiao was embarrassed for a moment, he actually didn't mean to let Yuko Oshima go to Beijing directly, in his thoughts, Yuko can officially go to Beijing after graduating from high school, as for now, it's okay to work hard and run around the two places.

"Grandma! If you go to Beijing now, you won't be able to find a place to live for a while! Yuko said.

"Can't find it? Then it's better to live in Zhou Xiao's house, his family must be big, right? Yuko Oshima's grandmother said.

Zhou Xiao almost didn't shout out the sentence "I see it".

"That's not appropriate, is it?" Zhou Xiao looked at Youzi's father who was full of black lines on the side and said.

"That's it, grandma, how can I say that I'm also a girl." Yuko couldn't listen to it anymore on the side.

"What's wrong with the girl, it's not like I don't know you're a girl!" Yuko's grandmother is unreasonable.

"Okay, okay, let's not argue, or else, since I invited her to Tokyo, if Yuko really agrees to go, I will be responsible for finding her an apartment with a rent of not less than 150,000, what do you think?" Zhou Xiao said. He actually wants to say 200,000 yuan, but the 200,000 apartment is inevitably a little too big, so it is better to be conservative and say 150,000 apartments.

"I ...... I'm just being fostered!? Yuko Oshima said.

"Smack! Take care of your sister! Zhou Xiao patted the head of the girl next to him, and he couldn't talk nonsense.

"But you've got a house for me!" The girl said.

"If other out-of-town girls had such high potential as you, I would rent a house for them." Zhou Xiaodao.

"You...... You have another woman!!??? Yuko Oshima said with a very sad look.

“…… I didn't find you so funny before! Zhou Xiao couldn't help but complain.

"Before, you knew about me before?" Yuko Oshima asked.

"Uh...... What is this? Let's talk about going to Beijing! Zhou Xiao shouted, he actually said that he had leaked his mouth, but he couldn't admit this reason.

The four of you talked for a long time, and finally settled the matter, in fact, whether Yuko Oshima can go to Beijing. Zhou Xiaoda didn't worry about it from the beginning, Japanese parents are still relatively positive about sending their children into the entertainment industry, there are many kinds of stars in the entertainment industry, from middle-class families, with two educated or super highly educated stars. And Yuko Oshima, it is impossible for her father not to know that this is the dream that his daughter has been fighting for for ten years, and as a father who understands things very well, it is impossible to block the dream that his daughter attaches so much importance to.

"Then since there is nothing to do, I will take my leave. I'm going to join the group for filming tomorrow. Zhou Xiao saw that the matter was over, stood up and said.

"It's so late, why don't you stay overnight? There is a place in the grandma room! Yuko Oshima's grandmother said.

"Mom!!" Yuko's father seems to be very accustomed to his mother's disconnection, and Zhou Xiao basically understood Yuko's character after chatting with Yuko's family today. I'm afraid that a lot of Cheng dù comes from my grandmother's next-generation inheritance, which is simply ...... It's too unrestrained.

Coming out of Yuko Oshima's house, Zhou Xiao drove back to Tokyo overnight.

Zhou Xiao didn't even go home, but went directly to the crew's studio, the filming of the drama "How to Steal the Key". He's got to have a snack too.

In the drama "How to Steal the Key", the main thing to watch is Sakai Masato and Kagawa Teruyuki, as for the original Ryoko Hirosue. Now the heroine played by Takako Matsu is more of a key-like role, or in other words, the heroine is actually a key, the key to unlocking the man Teruyuki Kagawa.

Although it is not the first time that he has worked with these two, after everyone got acquainted with each other, Zhou Xiao also discovered a lot of things.

Kagawa Teruyuki, this guy is from a super actor family, and Sakai Masato is also a talent with high IQ and EQ, but these two people don't have any actors, this is not because of Zhou Xiaozai, even for an ordinary staff member, they can also create a very relaxed atmosphere, and they will be very talkative when interviewed by some media, which can be said to be quite "service spirit".

Don't think that anyone can do this, most Japanese actors actually only get into the state during filming, and in private they are actually very boring and boring, and if no one throws a topic on TV, they don't even have a fart, and it's really hard to find interesting and energetic actors like these two.

For example, there is an example of this in the crew.

Takako Matsu, like Teruyuki Kagawa, is a big star from a family in the entertainment industry, and she is also very polite to the staff and to other people whose status is not as good as her, but her politeness is completely different from that of the other two men, and her politeness can be seen to be more out of politeness than sincerity.

Of course, Takako Matsu will not casually express that it is not easy to contact, because the atmosphere of the whole crew is very good, Zhou Xiao and Sakai Masato Kagawa Teruyuki The three men are all very humorous and playful guys, and when they work, of course, the three of them are still very serious and hard-working, but outside of work, the whole crew has become a time for the three of them to talk and chat and brag.

Filming or something is a waste of time, and filming is often in a state where the whole crew is waiting for one or two people, when the TV series is filming, everyone except the actors is waiting for the actors to act, and when they are not filming, the actors are waiting for the crew props and lights. Sound and others prepare for the scene, except for the time every morning, when everyone is working in parallel in many aspects of the crew, most of the rest of the time, filming is only one or two links that have problems and stops, and then dozens of people in the entire crew wait for this link to return to normal process.

In such a process, most of the crew is actually dry and stop, even the busiest director and screenwriter Zhou Xiao have a lot of time to chat with the other two people.

As for Takako Matsu? This sister is really very beautiful, she is not the type to be amazed at first sight. But when you stare at her face, you will feel like you will never get tired of looking at her, although Zhou Xiao doesn't have much affection for her, but it's not good to get too close to her, he doesn't have the time and energy to provoke other women now, AKB or something, there will be more than 30 women soon, this is the maker of AKB, Zhou Xiao is about to vomit every day when he mixes in the girls' pile. I'm afraid that's why he would hang out with two men all day long when he was filming, leaving Takako Matsu aside.

Although there is less communication with Takako Matsu, she is satisfied when she plays the heroine, and the heroine of this work is a serious character with some facial paralysis, so to speak. Such a role, plus two actors who are now powerful but not particularly appealing, if the movie was not filmed by Zhou Xiao, Matsu Takako would not have accepted it at all. Because the challenge is too low.

But Zhou Xiao's invitation made Takako Matsu unable to refuse, this man's box office appeal as a director is too strong, a Japanese director. In the past, it was basically divided into two levels, one level was a super director, and the other level was an ordinary director, among ordinary directors, no matter how good the shooting was, it was not very high in terms of box office appeal, and the final box office of more than 4 billion was already very good, and occasionally it could jump to 780 million to eat a dumpling, and the super director's films were each 10 billion foundation, and the impact was 20 billion depending on the situation, which was not at the same level as other directors behind.

Before, there was only one such super director in Japan, that is, Ghibli's white-bearded old man Hayao Miyazaki, and now, this super director is likely to add another Zhou Xiao to the list, because several of Zhou Xiao's works are indeed hitting the 10 billion mark, even if the box office is not so high, it is often a very good evaluation, and at first glance, it is a work that goes to the route of literary films and makes a name for himself.

What's more, don't forget that Zhou Xiao's director's films are all live-action movies, and in terms of making zuò, the production of live-action movies is much easier than that of animated films.

Such a high box office means the same high exposure and attention,Matsutako and almost all other big-name artists don't care about the attention and only shoot their favorite books is actually conditional,If a film can get the attention of the whole of Japan and even Southeast Asia dares to be released simultaneously,Even North America can be released,Then even the so-called big-name artists,Don't think about the script very well。

The filming of the movie is going on day by day, AZX's film shooting department has gradually become very skilled in years of shooting work, and not only Zhou Xiao, the company has also shot a few films in the past two days, Zhou Xiao did not interfere too much in the selection of these movies, it is not that Zhou Xiao does not want to make money through Guò movies, it is really that the live-action film market in Japan is so big, a Zhou Xiao and a Miyazaki Hayao have taken up too many resources, and there are five major film companies in the live-action film. It is already very hard for various departments of AZX to satisfy Zhou Xiao alone, and then support a movie with the same big name or shoot two movies with a big investment at the same time? It can't be said that the film department has to borrow money from other departments, if it is a movie made by Zhou Xiao, then it is naturally no problem to borrow money, who let this guy not lose money until now, but if it is someone else or even some rookie director, then it is very embarrassing, we also want to ensure the income.

Time passed quickly, and within a few days, Zhou Xiao was going to ask the crew for leave again, and he was going back to the company to participate in the second selection of AKB's second phase students.

There is not a long difference between the selection time of the first and second students, and it is also for this reason that Zhou Xiao found that many people who were unsuccessful in the final selection of the first phase of the students participated in the selection of the second phase of the students, and in addition to these people and those who were picked out by Zhou Xiao and became genuine second students in their last life, there are also some people who participate, which makes Zhou Xiao more concerned.

What he was thinking about was whether to give these people a chance to get into the AKB.

Among these people, there is a person named Kawanishi Riyin, who is the sister of Tomomi Kawanishi, who was born in the second generation, and Ai Shinozaki, who was born in 1992 and is now 13 years old, is a very famous photo actress in the future, and the other two are even more powerful.

Zhou Xiao first picked up a selection application that he put in the most important position at hand, and the name on it was Mita Yurika is nineteen years old, although he looks very old in the idol, but this person is...... This person is the female anchor of Fuji TV in later generations!

And the name of another person pressed under Mita Yurika's application also seems to be unfamiliar, Kiriko Takemura? Zhou Xiao saw this familiar name, scratched her head and thought about it for half an hour, before she finally had a flash of inspiration to think about her identity in later life, this little girl in 1993, she has a nickname called "Peng Weiwei" in China in later life, and her stage name in Japan is きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ!
