Chapter 335: Enter the AKB Era
Originally, with the current level of fans n fans, even if it is a single, it is very difficult to be on a music program, and even if it can be on, it will only be on a few less important late-night files at most.
Of course, if there is Zhou Xiao's words, it will be different, with Zhou Xiao's current power in the entertainment industry, there is no problem in sending a singer to a prime-time variety show in one sentence.
But...... It was absolutely impossible for Zhou Xiao to do this.
His AZX has singers and actors, AZX and his own resources are not enough for these people, how can it be returned to a person who is not his own company.
However, Zhou Xiao's lack of effort does not mean that the company of fans does not make efforts, Zhou Xiao's songs are a huge help, if fans only create their own singles, the company may be reluctant to give her any resources, but since Zhou Xiao is here this time, these resources can be rewarded, it is worth it.
Invitations to several music programs were sent to Zhou Xiao's company, and these invitations ...... It stands to reason that he doesn't have to agree to anyone, and he doesn't need to give a singer who is getting worse and worse.
In fact, even the company itself may not care about their invitation, in their opinion, this invitation is nothing more than obeying the destiny of heaven, Zhou Xiao is impossible......
Hey?
The company that is a fan of N is surprised that the company's past series of variety show invitations, AZX actually returned one! It is an invitation to agree to attend a variety show! Moreover, in addition to this, there is another prime-time variety show invitation, this variety show, the company that is a fan of N fans has also worked hard to fight for it but has no chance at all, but now AZX has easily got it!
Two shows! Zhou Xiao actually agreed to star in two shows with fans N fans!
That alone is enough for the company to make a lot of news.
The fan company expected it well, and the news that Zhou Xiao composed music for her had just appeared, and it immediately appeared on the important pages of major websites and media. Zhou Xiao's music works are notoriously rare, but this guy is not incapable, he has even shown his ability to compose music quickly many times, but he rarely concentrates on music work with such ability, which makes many musicians very regretful.
Therefore, this long-awaited collaboration in music will naturally get a lot of attention.
Because it's a relatively sudden collaboration, the preparation time is also very short, and AZX is also very surprisingly surprised when providing an invitation, there is only one single that must fulfill the requirements of the single line, so the single line of fans is in absolute degree, and it will be officially done before the end of 2oo4.
Zhou Xiao followed on two variety shows, and his purpose in variety shows was also obvious. It's to promote the selection of AZX, and the fan company finally figured out Zhou Xiao's purpose, of course, there is no discomfort with Zhou Xiao's behavior, this is also a normal thing, Zhou Xiao must have a purpose, who does something without a purpose.
Zhou Xiao's two variety shows can be regarded as doing his best, not only promoting the company's selection, but also working hard to be funny and bring the atmosphere to the field of N fans, the meaning behind his hard work is very simple. One of my songs can bring hope to people and hope to you in front of the TV, come and participate in our company's audition, I will package you perfectly and write you a lot of good songs.
Zhou Xiao's "help" effect is obvious. The declining popularity of fans has received considerable attention because of this song, and after the single was sold, it actually won the highest third place on the daily chart, in terms of sales, in fact, the sales of this single week are not as good as her first single that won the fourth place. But that's where luck comes into play, as her first single more than two years ago was met by very high-selling singers, and this time the sales are down. The opponent's sales are not high, which gives her the opportunity to enter the top three of the daily and weekly lists. For the current fans, it is quite good to be able to get the third place.
After participating in variety shows twice, Zhou Xiao completed this cooperation with fans N fans.
And a week after the recording of the show, in an ordinary house located in Matsusaka City, Mie, something that Zhou Xiao was very looking forward to, and the whole purpose of his cooperation was born.
Kana Nishino, who is about to enter high school, paid a lot of attention to her when she first debuted as a fan n fan, this singer's style is the type she likes very much, as for Zhou Xiao? Kana Nishino didn't have much feeling for this man before, this man is indeed very talented, but most of his songs are standard Japanese sounds, and only a few songs such as "1etgo" have European and American styles, and even if the European and American styles are not something she will definitely like, she prefers those songs with a strong black style and rap, and from Zhou Xiaobiao's point of view, he doesn't have anything to do with this style, so Kana Nishino doesn't particularly care about his music.
But...... At the end of 2oo4, she suddenly realized that her idea was wrong, Zhou Xiao was not uninterested in this kind of music, and his interest came so suddenly and so excited to her, because Zhou Xiao suddenly announced that the singer she was going to cooperate with was the fan n fan she had always liked!
Star chasers or something, it is easiest to empathize with the singer's experience, so for the plight of the fans, Kana Nishino is also a little anxious, which makes Zhou Xiao's help not only make Kana Nishino happy, but also makes her look forward to the new song of the two.
After waiting in front of the TV for a while, the variety show in which Zhou Xiao and the two would appear finally began.
To say that Zhou Xiao is a person, many things are inherited from the computer hard drive in his mind, these things are not his talent, but to say that his unique and powerful talent should be his expression on variety shows, not to mention those variety shows that have experience, even if it is a variety show that he has not experienced at all, he can easily deal with it very well, which can be called a witty statement.
Don't think it's just talking, it's easy, this thing is actually a rare talent like singing and acting, for example, looking at the whole AKB, there are not many people who are really good at singing, but there are fewer people who are good at variety shows than good at singing.
The whole variety show has become very interesting because of Zhou Xiao's appearance, and Zhou Xiao also mentioned to the host the reason why he wants to cooperate with fans, of course, most of these reasons and ideas are his nonsense. But about the AZX selection, of course, he told the truth: "Our AZX selection is to find the best you, whether you want to be a singer or an actor or a funny artist, we will help you find the right way, this is the guarantee that I have entered the entertainment industry in the past few years, after quitting several singers and actors, I believe you will definitely become the next Miyazaki Aoi, or the next fan n fan!" ”
The song sounded, and Kana Nishino, who was calmly watching the show in front of the TV, was stunned.
Strictly speaking. The quality of the song, which was supposed to be Kana Nishino's own work, was not very good, at least not so much that most people in Japan were obsessed, similar to Cheng dù in "The Only Flower in the World". But it's such a song, but it hit Kana Nishino's soul, of course she doesn't know that this song should actually be hers, that's why it makes her seem so resonant!
"This song...... The song ...... "The girl is even a little overwhelmed.
She sings really well, but she doesn't have much idea of making her debut as a singer herself, as a Japanese who likes European and American music. She doesn't have a lot of interest in the Japanese entertainment industry, but Zhou Xiao's song that directly hit her soul made her not know what to do.
Listening to Zhou Xiao talking about the AZX selection on TV, a thought grew wildly in Kana Nishino's heart: "Do you want to try it?" Do you want to try to participate in Zhou Xiao's audition? ”
The man on TV was still talking. In particular, there is a sentence that hits Kana Nishino's heart: "Even if you fail, at most you will just fall back to the same place, and if you succeed, believe me." The resonance between us will definitely give birth to better and more excellent works! It will not only be my music, my work, but your own work. A voice from your soul! ”
Zhou Xiao is not a god stick who speaks with a strong demagogic power, but at such a moment, his words can indeed play a very good role, because along with his words, it is his invincible and golden legend since his debut.
At the end of 2oo4, Zhou Xiao's legend is not history, but is alive.
Although, this living legend is in Japanese dramas and Japanese shadows.
There is nothing to say about Japanese films, "The Life of the Disgusted Matsuko" has received a total of 6.7 billion yen at the box office by the end of the painting, and together with Zhou Xiao's "Just Loving You" this year, a total of 1.4 billion yen at the box office, once again making Zhou Xiao the most appealing live-action film director in Japan this year.
Moreover, compared with the previous work, Zhou Xiao's second work this year can be described as popular and popular, and the box office is only slightly inferior to "Just Loving You", but it has won many awards in Europe and Asia, and when Miki Nakatani finally returned to Japan again, it was impossible for her to get off the plane at one time for the various awards she won, so she had to use a special box to pack up the trophies, certificates, etc.
Miki Nakatani won the award, Zhou Xiao will not have nothing to gain, Yuichi Fukuda, who attended the film festival on his behalf, took home a few awards for himself, what is the best director, the best screenplay, the best visual effects, the best editing, the best soundtrack, if it is the work of any other director, it is rare to do so many things at the same time, but for Zhou Xiao, these awards ...... It's all him.
It can be said that in today's Japanese cinemas, in addition to Hayao Miyazaki, another golden sign is slowly rising, and this person's name represents the same brilliant and dazzling achievements.
The movie is advancing by leaps and bounds, but Zhou Xiao is a little unsatisfactory in the TV series.
Compared to 2o14, the average viewership of dramas in 2oo4 was much higher, but it cannot be said that 2o14 was a nightmare in the television industry, and ten years later there is a level of information dissemination that cannot be compared with ten years ago, and everything that happens anywhere in Japan and even anywhere in the world can be transmitted to everyone in the rest of the world in a matter of minutes.
It is precisely for this reason that "Housewife Mita" and "Hanzawa Naoki" can be born in that era, the quality and script of these two legendary TV series are of course very good, but if you really want to talk about a good Cheng dù, it may not be able to reach the kind of Cheng dù that is watched all over Japan, such a TV series, like Zhou Xiao's "Just Loving You" and Takuya Kimura's TV series, can achieve high results, the biggest reason is not that the work is good, but the reason why the trend has been brought up.
And this trend. It's hard to do for "Symphonic Lover's Dream".
"Just Loving You" is a pure love movie for young people, in young people, the trend and popularity are easy to achieve, but for the TV industry, the TV circle, where the main force is middle-aged women, is not the kind of person who can quickly accept the trend, such as Kimura Takuya, and it was after years of hard work that he finally succeeded in being promoted to the king of Japanese dramas, but it is very difficult for Zhou Xiao to take this road. It can't be helped, the era is an era when the average ratings are getting lower and lower, and it is almost impossible to go this way.
Therefore, although today's "Symphonic Lover's Dream" got more than 24% of the ratings in the first episode, and even saved the decline in the third episode and started a new growth, the overall ratings of this film did not arouse everyone's discussion like "Naoki Hanzawa", and each episode has a strong growth.
Now this drama, even if it is broadcast to the sixth episode. Ratings are still only hovering around 24%, sometimes more and sometimes better, but never higher than 26% and never lower than 22%.
Such ratings have the media going crazy. Let the staff of AZX walk sideways in front of their peers, but it can't make the film lead the trend with proper guidance like ten years later, and finally become a divine drama with more than 3o% or even 4o% ratings.
At least not with the capabilities of AZX.
Zhou Xiao regretted it. But he also knew that there was no way to do it, he worked very hard to film, and worked very hard to show all the excitement of this drama that he had not done in his previous life. The rest can only be left to Providence.
In addition to Zhou Xiao, the entire crew is also working hard in their own way, especially the two protagonists, the two who were not very familiar with musical instruments took a year to learn piano because of Zhou Xiao's advance notice, and Yumu Hong also learned to learn violin and conducting, so that their current ability is incomparable to the two of Zhou Xiao's previous life, after having such a good ability, Zhou Xiao has become much easier to deal with many plots, this drama in the previous life, Two young people who barely know musical instruments are filming the drama by rote memorization and stand-in, although the stand-ins are still there in this life, the ability of the two is not bad, and many scenes that cannot be realized in the previous life can be made this time, which makes Zhou Xiao's filming work a lot easier.
Time has finally reached the end of the year, the craze for movies has gradually dissipated, and Zhou Xiao's TV series is finally about to enter the final stage.
Some time ago, "Symphonic Lover's Dream" has actually been completed, but for the two protagonists, AZX's cooperation with them has not yet been completed, "Symphonic Lover's Dream" is a TV series with many sequels and derivative works, among which Zhou Xiao has already written the script for the first sequel SP, in addition to SP, this drama even has plans to appear on the big screen, but Zhou Xiao is not interested in writing the script of the second sequel, and when the time comes, hand over the script to another author, and he can take the money.
As for the filming of the two SPs, Zhou Xiao has no special interest, and can hand it over to others or even to Yuichi Fukuda.
In fact, since entering the Japanese drama circle, several of Zhou Xiao's works have not been missing the filming of Japanese dramas, "One Liter of Tears" has sold the filming rights to Xingchen Office last year, but the adaptation of Japanese dramas Xingchen still hopes that Zhou Xiao will handle it, this kind of work of sending money is not done in vain, Zhou Xiao even wrote a script for SP reminiscences when he wrote the adapted script, and sent it to Xingchen Office, and Xingchen also began intensive filming preparations after receiving Zhou Xiao's script, As for the hero and heroine, they are still the same as in their previous lives, they are still pure and beautiful like Erika Sawajiri, and Ryo Nishikito, who doesn't have so many wrinkles on his face.
In addition to that, "The Queen's Classroom" has two prequel specials that narrate the heroine's life experience, and even "The Man Who Can't Get Married", which originally did not have any sequels, was filmed because of Zhou Xiao's good relationship with the TV station today, although these three Japanese dramas and the future "Symphonic Lover's Dream" have sequel specials, but Zhou Xiao will only write a script for the work at most and invest in filming, as for starring or directing this kind of work, I don't have time.
The completion of the film work and the completion of the TV series made Zhou Xiao completely unload his heavy work, he has done a lot of actions in the past few years, these jobs have brought him money and status, and even brought the favor of several women, and after completing the last two works in his plan before this group, he can finally let go of his hands and feet and do the job that he values and looks forward to the most.
Although there is still a full year before the official theater debut, although there is still a crucial selection to be done in the first half of next year, so there is not much free time, Zhou Xiao, who is already a little impatient, has already announced at the company's meeting: "The establishment of AKB48 will officially start after starting work next year, what is the goal...... It is best to hold the official meeting and complete the AKB48 audition in the summer vacation next year! (To be continued......)
