Chapter 646: Capricious Decisions
There were only Zhou Xiao and 40 girls in the lounge, no one knew Zhou Xiao's purpose for doing this, and the 40 girls gathered around Zhou Xiao, waiting with curiosity on their faces.
Looking at the little faces of the girls around him, Zhou Xiao said: "In recent months, I have been distressed by your hard work, and the question I seriously consider the most in my mind is whether I can let you rest more."
But...... Intellectually, I couldn't have done that.
You're the most popular girl idol in all of Japan right now, and you have so much work to do, and if you are taken away, no one can do so much work in AKB......
For me, the torment of this choice was too hard.
I had already decided before the election, although you are very hard, but the work cannot be stopped, once stopped, AKB will be considered a very unruly combination, and the reputation of me and AZX will also be affected, and even exaggeratedly, one of my decisions may lead the whole company to fall into passivity.
If it's just me who is responsible, I don't really care, but one of my actions now affects not only me, but also you, and the people in the company, are all things I have to bear.
So I can't do that. ”
Zhou Xiao paused for a moment and said again: "However, there is still an irrational part in my heart.
So, I asked the company owner to go to this lounge with the Budokan and made certain arrangements.
I thought I would never use it here, but ...... As you can see, we are still here. ”
After Zhou Xiao finished speaking, he walked to the other side of the lounge and pushed open a door.
The girls discovered the special feature of this lounge, outside the door they entered, I am afraid that quite a lot of media and staff were still waiting there, but as soon as this door was pushed open, it went directly to the outside. Following the door that Zhou Xiao pushed open, the girls saw that it was a relatively secluded path near the martial arts hall outside.
"Brother Zhou Xiao, who are you?"
"I've got a couple of cars out there, you guys...... If anyone is tired, you can leave by car now, whether it is Okinawa, Guam, Hokkaido, Hawaii and Australia, you can go! It costs me to pay, as for the work. Just leave it to me. Zhou Xiao said.
"How can we do it, we still have a lot of important work ahead of us, and the shooting of the general selection magazine has already been booked, right? That's a group photo! You can't do it without anyone! "Yuko Oshima is the most sane one.
"If it really doesn't work, then the project will not be done at all!" Zhou Xiao said.
"Brother Zhou Xiao, are you serious? What about your sanity just now? Yuko asked.
"Of course I'm serious, and I'm very sensible now." Zhou Xiaodao.
"If you are sensible, why do you dare to do this?" Yuko asked.
"What don't you dare, for your sake, I can do anything!" Zhou Xiaodao.
"But ......"
"Yuko, don't think for anyone else. You just have to think about whether you want to get out of here, and I assure you that you will have at least three days of leave, and after three days. I and the operation will never pursue any questions from you! ”
Yuko wanted to say something, but in the end she retreated without saying anything.
The room of more than 40 people suddenly fell silent.
The girls looked at each other and no one moved, neither indicating that they were going on vacation, nor that they were still going to work for the next few days.
Looks. Everyone is more cautious, Brother Zhou Xiao's words are so. But there is still no guarantee how much everyone can believe.
"Brother Zhou Xiao, let's forget it...... Work is so busy......" Maeda said.
"No, Maeda, no one in the team can go, but you have to go, you are the most tired, I have arranged a place for you!" Zhou Xiao said.
"Huh? I still have a lot of work to do tomorrow, magazine shoots, TV dramas, variety shows......" The girl said, snapping her fingers.
"It's all pushed! Don't participate! You've been busy for a year and a half since the beginning of 10 years, have you ever taken more than one day off during that time? There aren't many opportunities, and if you don't take a break this time, you may not have a decent rest before you graduate! Zhou Xiao said.
"Graduation?" Maeda's heart jumped.
When did Maeda graduate? August 2012!
If Zhou Xiao's existence had not had an impact on Maeda's graduation, there would only be one year and two months left before her graduation!
If you say anything less, in fact, if you think about it carefully, AKB in the previous life became popular in the second half of 2010, and Maeda only enjoyed the treatment of Japan's top idols in the group for about two years......
Is this a long time? It's enough to count the five long years that didn't become popular, but if you count the popular years alone, Maki Goto debuted at the peak, and he worked in Good Morning Niang for more than two years before graduating.
Why did you only do the pinnacle in AKB for two years? Physical and psychological fatigue, and the scheming among the members, are definitely the two biggest reasons.
In short: tired body, tired heart.
In the past two years of popularity, for Maeda, there may only be happy memories in the first half of the year, that is, in 2010, and the days after that may be more hard work and perseverance.
Zhou Xiao doesn't know when Maeda wants to graduate, maybe it will be the spring CON announcement in March 2012, and the graduation in August, maybe it will be delayed for a few months or even a year, but it doesn't matter, Zhou Xiao hopes that when Maeda graduates, there will be no sense of relief or release, he hopes that her departure, just like Mai Oshima and Tomomi Itano's departure, is more of a sweet memory and a touch of reluctance.
In fact, Zhou Xiao can also ignore this, if he is more evil, he can subtly rule that there are more members of the team, or he can use the members desperately and not give them time to rest, even more exaggerated, he can even recruit more top artists in his mind who will become popular in the future to AKB.
He didn't.
Most of the members of the AKB48 group still continue the main body of Zhou Xiao's previous life, he has not seen the potential, but he did not enter the AKB members in his previous life, but among such girls, there are not many who are really included in AKB by Zhou Xiao, even if they are included in AKB. In Zhou Xiao's prediction, these members will definitely not become the main force of AKB in the future, they are more in AKB gilding and training themselves, and their work focus is still on singing and acting and other aspects.
He hopes that not only will AKB make the audience feel happy, but the AKB members themselves will also enjoy it.
He hopes that in five years, when they graduate, the members who have decided not to work hard to become celebrities will be willing to stay in AKB and become staff or managers.
He hopes that in ten years' time, when the girls who have long since graduated will mention AKB. There is no relief and happiness in the tone, but more nostalgia and like.
He hopes that fifteen years later, when they hear that their daughters want to join the AKB, they will nod their heads without hesitation and send their children to the AKB with confidence.
He hopes that in 20 years, they will be on the stage of AKB's 25th anniversary again, and even dance with their daughters......
If you want to do that, you obviously can't make the girls hate it. I can't wait to get out of here right away.
Therefore, even if you take a huge risk now, even if you are scolded by major employers, this time you will take the risk. Zhou Xiao also resisted.
"Okay, who else wants to go but Maeda? We're running out of time! Especially the TOP members, you all work hard, right? If you don't take a break this time. It's hard to have time to rest in the future. Zhou Xiaodao.
"But ......" TOP members are a little overwhelmed, saying that it is impossible for them to not want to rest, but as TOP. Obviously, their work is also the heaviest, if they really leave, Brother Zhou Xiao's side may not be much trouble.
Seeing that the TOP didn't move, Zhou Xiao asked, "Youzi, are you leaving?" Let's go, let's go, your busy journey is not inferior to Maeda, right? ”
Yuko laughed brightly, and she scolded: "What to go!" I can't go if anyone goes! ”
"Why?"
"Maeda is gone! Maeda's work, I'm the one who is qualified to replace her, if I'm all gone, Maeda's shooting work, do you change into AKB clothes! ”
"Yuko......" Maeda shouted movingly.
"Don't thank me! Go and tell Brother Zhou Xiao! It's all his mess! Yuko said angrily.
Now Yuko's state Zhou Xiao has almost never seen it, some hot-blooded, some sensible, and some angry? But...... There is no doubt that the child's behavior and the girl's words really touched Maeda.
also moved Zhou Xiao.
She is right, if Maeda Oshima disappears, Zhou Xiao's operation here will definitely encounter a lot of trouble, and if one disappears now, even if it is the same trouble, it can still be reluctantly handled.
Moreover, these two people also made a good start to Zhou Xiao's willfulness this time, making it much easier for Zhou Xiao to persuade others later.
Mariko and Kojima were put into the team by Zhou Xiao without hesitation, these two girls are the most tired except for Maeda Oshima, their appearance is already very mature, and the variety show effect is also very good, they are the darlings of the AKB media group now, and they are the least members of the team during their breaks.
Aeri Matomo,Kashiwagi pointed out that the original stayed,The first two girls said that they were about to end.,As a top student, they don't need to study hard.,Just take out more time to help AKB do work.,The next two girls are just in the rise of their careers.,It's the period to seize every opportunity to be on TV.,Naturally reluctant to leave.。
As for Takahashi Minami...... It's even more impossible for her to leave.
In this way, the 40 girls were divided by Zhou Xiao little by little.
In the end, the only people who decided to take a break turned out to be ...... Ten bits.
Among them are Maeda Shinoda Kojima, Chinese mother Li Chun, Qin Zuo Kazuko and other members, who decided to rest, the lowest ranked member is Watanabe Miyuki, this girl with a mysterious but cute smile fluttered in the rest queue, of course very surprised, because most of the members of the general election did not leave.
"There are only 10 people...... All right. So, I'm leaving with them today, but for the next two months, I promise that each of the remaining 30 of you will get at least two days off! ”
"Thank you, Brother Zhou Xiao." The girls who said they wanted to stay bowed and thanked them.
"Alas...... I was ruthless to take away so many of them...... That...... Let's go, get in the car and leave, I still have to deal with the aftermath here, it's been nearly fifteen minutes since we closed the door. Zhou Xiao said.
"Brother Zhou Xiao, won't you come with us?" Miyuki Watanabe asked.
The girl's question made Zhou Xiao understand. It turns out that this girl's idea is to think about what will happen to her?
"I'm gone, who will preside over such a big thing! Well, no more nonsense! Hurry up, hurry up, go away! Zhou Xiao's neck suddenly became tough, and he pushed the members who said they were leaving out of the lounge and closed the door.
After completely blasting the girls away, Zhou Xiao turned around and looked at the girls who were still left behind and smiled reluctantly.
"Now, let's go out to work!" Zhou Xiao said.
With that, he finally pushed open the door that had been connecting the lounge and the interior of the Budokan again.
Uncle Inoue and the others outside the door had obviously been waiting until they saw Zhou Xiao come out. Everyone walked towards this direction.
"Zhou Xiao, why did you come out, what were you talking about just now? The reporters here are already in a hurry, by the way, what about Maeda? She is still going to participate in tonight's broadcast! Uncle Inoue said.
"Uh......" Zhou Xiao turned around and looked at the girls behind him with some embarrassment.
"Huh? What about Maeda? "30 people are neither more nor less, Uncle Inoue can see it as long as he looks closely, and several girls, including Maeda...... It's gone.
What's going on?
Among all the people, the person who understands Zhou Xiao and reacts the fastest is Qiu Yuanyasu. Only he rubbed his chin before Zhou Xiao said the reason and said, "It's really interesting......
However, there are not many people who have a way to understand this kind of interestingness, and most people just want to make a note after listening to Zhou Xiao's explanation: "Ha??? ”
A very complicated exclamation, with surprise, helplessness and incredulity.
"Ahem, anyway. They have now gone to the airport, and the rest of their work will be made up by the rest of us as much as possible, and as for the work that cannot be done, I will also apologize one by one in the future! Zhou Xiao said.
……
The ten girls who skipped work were led by the staff secretly arranged by Zhou Xiao to go to three destinations respectively. Miyuki Watanabe's strategy has all failed, and Zhou Xiao, who has replaced the girls' work, has been so busy these days that he has no time to fool around with the girls on vacation.
But. Played a little clever, she also learned a lot when she went out with Shinoda Kojima, although the two girls skipped class, but they didn't forget their work during the play, and uploaded a lot of small videos of the two girls playing together on the beach and basking in the sun, which made those so-called queen vegetable parties very excited.
Miyuki Watanabe also learned a lot about entertainment at work on the side, and she didn't forget the professionalism of her work when she was entertaining, which is also quite important for a top idol.
In the two days after the general election, the girls who took a break were very happy and relaxed, and basically, the girls who made the decision to rest were members who were very satisfied with their rankings, and they were definitely very happy to have just achieved good results and have a trip at public expense.
But the girls who stayed in Tokyo and Zhou Xiao didn't have a good time.
The increase in work has intensified everyone's busyness, and the entire AZX also has some complaints, because of Zhou Xiao's willful behavior, which directly led most of the people in the entire company to work overtime, including Zhou Xiao, Uncle Inoue, and other high-level people went around to apologize to others, and Yuko Oshima and Mayu Airi and others were also very sensible to take over several jobs they could help do, and finally barely fooled the past two days.
What Zhou Xiao did also became a noteworthy lace news in the general election.
The ratings of this year's general election in the live broadcast of Japanese TV are about 23%,This number jù,It can't be considered high for a special group,Especially the AKB that is still so hot plus Zhou Xiao's exit is only this rating, which must not be considered high,Zhou Xiao estimates,If the same program is broadcast on Fuji TV,The ratings may be able to rush up27% to 28%,No way,Although Japanese TV has been improving in recent years,But there is still a certain gap with the old aristocratic Fuji station。
The highest rated part of the whole show, of course, is the last part, Zhou Xiao's sudden departure was just inserted before the appearance of Yuko Oshima and Atsuko Maeda, plus the final ranking announcement time, in about 20 minutes before and after, the ratings once jumped to 35%, this number can already be said to be the attention of the whole of Japan.
The lace after the show is also attractive, Zhou Xiao's stubborn behavior, the girls' skipping work, Zhou Xiao apologized with the company's people, and even apologized to the whole Japanese audience in the morning ribbon show.
This apology is not just for him to make the members skip work, this apology also includes him doing such wayward things in the live broadcast.
And the apology to the Japanese TV,The other party expressed Xiàn is very generous,The person in charge of the Japanese TV side said: "In the past, when we did a show for Kitano Takesang, we actually encountered similar things.,Talented people,Usually people who follow their inner beliefs very much,Occasional irrationality is very normal behavior。 ”
In this regard, Zhou Xiao had no choice but to smile awkwardly.
In short, the election is finally over in these unexpected times and even farces, and over the next month, the girls will put the finishing touches on the election, and then ...... It's the first egg of AKB...... Seibu Dome. (To be continued......)
