Chapter 486: The variety show class begins

"It's already very difficult to set up a variety show class that equips the members with basic variety show skills." This is the view that after Zhou Xiao stated his opinion, the staff of AZX still had almost no change.

In the disbelieving eyes of almost everyone around him, Zhou Xiao began his own actions.

First of all, there is the question of who will attend the class.

Variety show teachers or something, they may not be very popular, they are powerful artists who have been in the entertainment industry for many years, people like Tetsuro Izukawa and Hidetaka Kano rely on their clumsy and cute nature to work hard in the entertainment industry, and their shining points and funny points, they themselves may be the ones who are the most unclear.

Those who react quickly on the spot, and are very good at MC, such as Tamura Jun, may not be a suitable candidate for class, Tamura Jun is indeed very smart and very good at MC, but he is not particularly good at how to be a young altar artist, how to hold a person behind his back, what he is best at is controlling the atmosphere, leading the rhythm, creating baggage, and letting him tell the girls how to be a fledgling, and may not speak more than ten sentences in the last episode of the young altar. It's been a long time since Jun Tamura has done anything like this.

It is said that he has watched the most TV among funny artists, and he has had ups and downs, ups and downs, starting from the bottom, the most ordinary young artist, he must have a lot of feelings and thoughts about his own and other people's artists, especially in the approach of the male and female pickets, his accurate evaluation and analysis of artists from all walks of life is really amazing.

In addition to Ariyoshi, his colleague Ota Akiyuki Tsuchida, and the troupe are also quite smart and have good performances on the young altar, and the most important thing is that several people are Ota's. For Zhou Xiao, it should be easier to invite Youji, but if you want to invite other artists, it may not be easy to invite, money is not a problem, the main thing is a craft of other artists, if you teach it to others, it is also very risky for artists, even if you can invite them, you have to pay a lot of money one by one.

Now that Ota can meet his requirements with one company, Zhou Xiao is too lazy to look for anything else. Contacted Ota directly, and after several years of the company's establishment, AKB was also on the verge of becoming popular, and negotiated this agreement that was crucial for AKB's future development in the TV area.

Of course, in addition to Ota's artists, there is also one of the most important lecturers in the variety show training class, that is, Zhou Xiao himself.

After finally deciding on the course, Zhou Xiao couldn't wait to announce the news to the members of the team, and hand-picked several members to enter the variety class.

Zhou Xiao's hand-picking system is also another feature of the AKB variety class, compared with other classes that adopt the principle of voluntary, the members who join the variety show class are optimistic about the operation. feels that there are potential members in variety shows, obviously, being able to enter this class means that the operation will give them more care in variety shows, and the opportunity to appear in variety shows is definitely something that all members want very much. With the establishment of this variety show, there is no doubt that the members who can enter this class will become the darlings of the AKB group.

Of course, it doesn't mean that if you can't enter the variety show team, you won't be pushed, in fact. The most important members of the AKB did not make it, but there is no doubt that the expectations for this class are still shared by all members.

Pity. The one who can really enter this class is destined to be the young master, in Zhou Xiao's announcement, in the first phase of AKB, Minami Mine Kishi and Mai Oshima became the only two members to enter the variety show, and in the second phase of the class, Noro Kayo and Megumi Ohori were originally seen as members of the variety show, but what I didn't expect was that these two people didn't enter in the end, and the members didn't know that there was not much time left for these two girls to leave AKB, and they were about to be transferred to a new company dominated by E-girls that Zhou Xiao and HIRO co-founded.

In the end, everyone found that none of the members who joined the variety show class in the second phase of the class, even if there was the most promising Akimoto Caijia other than the above two, he was not selected for the variety show class because he had both acting skills and singing classes.

After the second phase, the two members of the third phase were selected to be very surprised. Kazuko Qin Zuo joined the variety class, why did she join? The current Qin Zuo Hezi has not fully shown her talent in variety shows, but Zhou Xiao knows very well that this day is not far away, and after she shows her variety show ability and personal characteristics, if she can teach her more in this aspect of variety shows, she has the potential to become a pretty good announcement artist.

In addition to Qin Zuo and Zi, the Chinese mother Li Chun also joined the variety show.

As a third-term student, Li Chun has joined AKB for a while, in the past two years, for the purpose of protection, Zhou Xiao did not specifically emphasize her Chinese mother attributes, after a long time, people have gradually regarded her as an ordinary member of AKB, Zhou Xiao's task to her is to listen more, watch more, learn more, Li Chun is his long-term plan, Japan, in Zhou Xiao's opinion, Li Chun as long as the normal development is fine, what he expects is that after AKB is completely popular, Lee Chun can bring the experience of AKB back to the Celestial Empire and lay a good foundation for future SNH.

Although the goal is the future, Li Chun's popularity at this stage also needs to be maintained, if possible, before Li Chun graduates from AKB, Zhou Xiao hopes that the Japanese audience can know her as much as possible, so that her path in SNH can be better and more noticed.

Li Chun is a child, singing is very good, acting is what she wants to do the most, as for variety shows, she is not good at it, but, in Zhou Xiao's opinion, she is actually more suitable for variety shows, because her identity as a Chinese mother is a natural topical identity, since she came to Japan, joined AKB, and became an idol, there are a lot of jokes that can be said on TV, such as the gap between China and Japan, if these jokes become good, there is a good chance to become an artist with a certain reputation and influence in the Japanese entertainment industry.

Choosing a joke, Zhou Xiao and other artists can't do it for her, because everyone can't always find a joke for her, if the joke she finds is too good and her appearance is not good, others can easily see through her disguise and the director distrusts her and finally no longer asks her to act.

Therefore, the training of Li Chun's variety show ability is very important.

And Zhou Xiao knows that the Celestial Empire showbiz after 2010 is actually the world of variety shows, all kinds of variety shows. Although the form and content are very different from Japanese variety shows, the requirements for variety show artists are basically the same, smart, humorous, sensible, and artists who can pretend to be stupid and complain will be very popular wherever they go.

If Li Chun can not only be an actor after returning to China in the future, but also be an artist who can sing and dance and act, and even on TV, she will be able to talk to SNH for herself. Even the promotion of the entire 48 series in China is a good thing.

Behind the third phase of students, there are also a lot of variety classes in the fourth and fifth phases, and the selection of everyone Shizuka and Oba Mina is not unexpected, these two girls who are still working as graduate students, although the former is not very popular in AKB, but in the future, he can successfully gain a firm foothold in prime-time variety shows, and in terms of public recognition in the future, it is even better than some of the top ten members of all eight groups in the general election, and the sooner she is cultivated, the better.

And Oba Mina. In today's AKB, she has experienced even more twists and turns than before, she can be called Zhou Xiao's secret weapon, in the previous life, Oba Mina, when the ninth phase of the student first came out, she actually attracted a lot of attention, although she was small and a little fat. But her natural humor allows her to always enliven the atmosphere in the performance, Zhou Xiao remembers that AKB Rice at that time even specialized in a large theater MC collection, in which her performance xiàn is actually not particularly good. But compared with the worse people around her, it is still obvious that she is excellent.

After the fourth phase of the students, to the fifth phase of the students, there is nothing to say about the selection of the original students. Miho Miyazaki's selection represents a certain expectation of Zhou Xiao, this girl really has good potential, it's a pity that she can't put her own qiē table xiàn, now put her in the variety show, Zhou Xiao hopes that she can come out and succeed, even if she fails, this risky move is worth it.

As for the seventh phase of life, no one has been selected yet, Zhou Xiao originally wanted Saki Matsui to be selected, and the character setting of the so-called "perverted pianist" after the birthday of the music university is also a bit distinctive, but she has just joined the group, Zhou Xiao doesn't want to make her watch as if she was born knowing the girl's potential.

Minami Minegishi, Mai Oshima, Kazuko Hatosa, Li Jun, Shizuka Everyone, Mina Oba, Rino Shihara, Miho Miyazaki, these eight people became members of the first variety show class of AKB, and their first class was taught by Zhou Xiao.

Zhou Xiao, who taught eight people, adopted the strategy of watching videos while attending classes, and he prepared a total of three videos for the first class.

The first show is Zhou Xiao's participation in the production of zuò, the sister program of Asahi's "Male and Female Pickets" "Talk Show After the Rain" (ametalk), after 2000, in fact, the entire TV style in Japan is moving towards conservativeness, and there are a lot fewer comic programs, relatively, there are a lot fewer places for funny artists to show Xiàn, but under this trend, "Talk Show After the Rain" can use a large number of funny artists as a team to gain a firm foothold, and the quality of this show is obviously very good.

What Zhou Xiao values most is that in this show, you can clearly see the on-the-spot performance of many artists, the roles of each artist, the cooperation between each other, and even some new artists can't receive the place where the senior artists make balls, for AKB girls, it is undoubtedly very important to understand these things.

In the second scene, Zhou Xiao took out an issue of "Male and Female Pickets" in the "Tucao Big Ranking" environment, this Tucao big ranking, Zhou Xiao took out the female version, of course, Zhou Xiao took out the girls' version, Zhou Xiao hopes that with this show, the members can see what an excellent female artist can do in the entertainment industry.

In the last show, what he introduced to everyone was his "Flash Trip", many of the members present in this show have participated or will participate in the future, Zhou Xiao used this program he is most familiar with to tell the members that as a program maker, what kind of play he wants the participants to have, what kind of program participants, is what he likes.

After such a class, I have been taking notes, asking questions, and discussing with Zhou Xiao, several girls feel that they have benefited a lot, Zhou Xiao's narration can be described as simple to understand, he does not just introduce when the artist's answer is better, more importantly, he will help the members analyze, before this funny point is triggered, what kind of foreshadowing other artists have done, in Zhou Xiao's words. Spit and pretend to be stupid are inseparable, but pretending to be stupid is also hierarchical, just come up and pretend to be stupid, in fact, the audience will refuse, and the director will hate it......

Kindness? How a little off-track.

In short, someone like Jun Tamura is like that. You may not feel that he has done too many funny things, but under his control, the whole show will be very funny, all kinds of jokes come and go, of course, the role of others is equally important, but when many funny points are detonated, you can still see Jun Tamura a few seconds in front of him, dozens of seconds. Even a few minutes before the introduction was planted.

Such a person is like a behind-the-scenes worker in a movie or TV series, although he is not the funniest one at the front every time he is funny like some artists, he is also an indispensable part of variety shows.

The opening of the variety class has undoubtedly brought considerable encouragement to these eight members. This kind of incentive is very important, anyone who wants to be on a variety show is like this, there are many people who are usually very interesting, but it is not very good to actually participate in the variety show xiàn because of what? It's not just that the nervousness makes it impossible to show the normal level many times. An example of AKB is Mina Oba, who originally performed so well in the performance, as long as she was careful to cultivate it. A girl who has the potential to succeed, but because of a headshot incident, she had to deal with it within the team, and when she came out again, the momentum that once had potential was gone, and she gradually became a more ordinary member, coupled with the loss of shape, which made people quite embarrassed.

Almost every member of the first generation has a new job, and Zhou Xiao also came out with the importance of Mai Oshima, and after doing all these things, he did not go to see Mai Oshima, but found Shinoda again.

"How is she doing, is there anything more normal about her?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"On the outside, it seems that she did try a little harder and be a little more positive, but I still don't know what she really thinks. However, I found out that I seemed to have become your undercover agent in the AKB. Shinoda said.

"Doesn't she have any members who are well connected? And what's wrong with the undercover agent, I don't want her if someone else wants to be an undercover agent for me. Zhou Xiao said.

"Everyone is a colleague at work, how can it be so easy to talk about what is on your mind, especially this kind of thing." Shinoda said.

"Don't you have any particularly good friends either?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"I didn't have it before, but now I have a good relationship with Yuko." Shinoda said.

"Really?" Zhou Xiao's hand stiffened, and he asked with some hesitation.

"Of course it's true." Shinoda Road.

After being silent for a while, Zhou Xiao said, "I'm sorry ......"

"Don't be sorry, we did this and we did ......it voluntarily," Shinoda said.

Zhou Xiao knows that in the relationship between the three of them, the two girls are thorough and flattering him, so there will be this kind of inequality, although they did it first, but if the two parties are on an equal footing, I am afraid that no girl will choose to share a man with others.

The contradiction between Mai Oshima and the first-term students is actually just a small thing in Zhou Xiao's filming during this period, Zhou Xiao's most important work is, of course, on "Antang Machine Qì Ren" with Takuya Kimura, in fact, Zhou Xiao knows that this matter is actually very important in the history of AKB, Mai Oshima's graduation is also a very milestone event in AKB in her previous life, and her departure, the most obvious effect is to give up the number of upper members, so that the so-called "God Seven" completely becomes a legitimate existence.

If it weren't for her graduation, there would inevitably be an extra place for her in the god seven, and no matter who quits at that time, it will be very subtle for AKB's entire packaging promotion, and the same is true for Mai Oshima, who failed to become a member of the original god seven, so that many meals will question a little, just like everyone Shizuka, who has popularity and recognition outside AKB, may not be able to convert into popularity and voting within AKB, her evaluation like an uncrowned king, will it be a bit exaggerated?

In addition, in their free time, Zhou Xiao and Qiu Yuankang also wrote some other things.

For AKB members, one of the most painful things for members who aspire to be actors is that they often fall into a situation where there is no drama to film, which is also very normal, and there are so many resources for operation, and now the operation does not mean to divide the members to other studios, so it is understandable that there will be few people who can film at the same time.

What Zhou Xiao and Qiu Yuankang want to solve,That's this dilemma,The two of them each came up with two scripts this time,In fact, the scripts of the two are relatively simple,It's better to say it's a script than a "planning"It's more appropriate,These scripts that have chosen the school as the background will soon be turned into a movie and filmed by the members of the AKB drama class.,Of course, the investment won't be very high.,Candidates like directors won't choose particularly famous.,These works,It's more for the girls' practice works.,For this purpose. , Zhou Xiao didn't even stipulate how much money he wanted to make in a few dramas, and he said that with such a little money, let alone making money, it was okay if he couldn't get it back, what he wanted was just a workout for the members. (To be continued......)
