The ratings came up, and the mood and ideas of the entire crew also came up, so on the second day after the ratings were announced, the whole crew was in a very eager state when filming, especially the two protagonists of Shuri Ueno and Hiroshi Tamaki, in fact, it is said that Zhou Xiao's previous life was also officially promoted to first-line actors by relying on this drama, but compared with the previous life, Zhou Xiao's version filmed and broadcast two years in advance made them appear on the stage of Yuejiu earlier, and before that, They haven't taken on such a heavy burden yet, and they are directly qualified for Yue Jiu, and the two of them will inevitably be a little unconfident, and good ratings are a great help to their self-confidence.

The last quarter of 2oo4 is another quarter in which Zhou Xiao dominates the entertainment industry, Zhou Xiao himself is not much exposed, except for his title show, because he is busy with TV series shooting, so only a few TV appearances can capture his figure, but whether it is TV or movies, he is like a black hand behind his back, whether it is a movie or a TV series, he is indispensable.

In late October, "The Life of the Disgusted Matsuko" came to Europe after a series of good news, this film has achieved quite good results in Turkey, Germany and other film festivals, and Miki Nakatani came back with two Best Actresses in a row, and it can be described as infinite scenery for a while.

In China, just like "Symphonic Lover's Dream" in the previous life, after the ratings of this drama dropped slightly in the second episode, the third episode climbed suddenly, and after the first episode, it got a rating of 24.7%, which is ...... It's too rebellious, today, when the ratings are declining year after year, although the quality of this drama is good, it is impossible for a few leading actors to have such appeal, so most of the credit for such a high rating is due to Zhou Xiao, and now in the Japanese TV circle, there are only a few people who can have this kind of box office and ratings appeal. Among these people, it is absolutely impossible to direct or star in TV series, such as Takeshi Kitano, so in addition to Zhou Xiao, perhaps only Takuya Kimura and Masaharu Fukuyama can compete with them.

Perhaps it is the confidence brought by the extremely high ratings, the follow-up filming progress of this drama is much faster, especially several large-scale scenes at the Conservatory of Music can be completed perfectly in one shot, and such a smooth shooting schedule makes Zhou Xiao have a lot of extra time, so that he has time to be busy with the preparations of the company and the group.

What's the matter with AZX? What AZX has been preparing for recently, of course, is the selection meeting that Zhou Xiao has considered before.

Zhou Xiao's idea of the selection meeting is very strange, and at the company's meeting, Zhou Xiao said: "It is not necessary to recruit women, nor does it have to find actors or singers. My idea is that as long as you are healthy, interested in the entertainment industry, and think that you have a certain talent or ability that others don't have, you can come to our audition! ”

"Boss, this is too difficult...... someone from the company said.

The difficulty that people in the company are worried about is not actually the difficulty in the organization, but the difficulty in the selection, anyone can participate in the audition, and the method of this primary selection must not be just based on the face like AKB's original selection. Applicants must have a video or audio application, so how many applications will AZX receive? It takes a lot of time to see each of these video or audio applications, unlike the judges who sit there and look at dozens or hundreds of photos a minute, which is so inefficient. A lot of time was wasted on the selection staff, and what was the final result?

Zhou Xiao's thoughts are a little unreasonable in their opinion, in addition to the selection time, how can you see that this person has the potential to come in the selection of a person? What direction do you see potential? Finally, if you do choose him. How do you explain and compare with others? For example, if you choose a good singer, if there is an acting person who is not convinced, how should the two be compared? It's okay. If you choose a variety show or even a harlequin, how will you explain to those handsome men and women who sing and act? This ugly guy or chubby chick in front of you is the one who beat you? This is obviously not convincing to the public.

Even if you take 10,000 steps back, you elect the elect, so what about after that? How are you going to train him? The company's resources are limited and there are some things that are good at and what they are not good at, do you want to start from scratch in order to train her? For example, the company now has some experience in cultivating singers, and if you select an actor or comedy artist, how do you train them? For the investment of such cultivation is often a one-time investment, the more you go to the back, the more money you will save, but at the beginning of the investment, do you want to choose what kind of investment?

Regarding these doubts, Zhou Xiao said: "First of all, the question of whether the selected people can serve the public, if there are people who feel good, I will not stick to the quota, and when the time comes, it will be good to select the right people and not rank, as for my vision, this kind of selection is originally a chance job, not only me, but Mr. Yasuya Akimoto will also serve as a special consultant, if I can't choose a good enough person, I can only blame me for not having a fate with the artist who will be famous in the future."

As for the training after selection, I don't want to choose what kind of training, I want to ...... Singing, acting, and variety shows, all three roads are ready with enough resources! Zhou Xiao's sentence is quite a bit of an unsurprising meaning, among the three exhibition directions, the biggest investment is actually people, the invitation of the teacher of the three roads is the beginning of the biggest investment, in addition to this, the investment in many intangible assets is also very important, as for the hardware, the singer is mainly the investment in the singer's audio equipment, and the actor depends on whether the company has the courage and ability to find enough dramas for the actor to practice his acting skills, as for the variety show, it also needs the experience of the program on TV, if the show is bought by the company itself, It would be better to let the artist practice or even directly name the artist.

The real selection is actually not difficult, and it is relatively easy to prepare, Zhou Xiao prepared with AZX, as he said, it is to spend a lot of money to prepare all kinds of exercises that the selected people will be exposed to in the future, acting, vocal music, and even variety shows have begun to throw money down.

"Boss, there's no need to spend money like this, right? There may only be one or two people selected, so is it really okay to prepare now? Someone questioned.

"Of course, I don't prepare these for just one or two people, don't forget the idol girl group in the second half of next year, these things, in addition to the company's actors, idol girl groups will also use them, so it's definitely not a waste." Zhou Xiaoda.

That's right. That's what he had the idea, and part of the money he took out to prepare this thing was counted as part of the investment of the girl group, which was a very important part of AKB's future schooling.

"Nothing else, right? If not, let's do it, next year's two auditions are related to the next ten years, where can our company go in the entertainment industry, I am not enough, I have to rely on everyone a lot. Zhou Xiao said.

In addition to this matter, one of the things Zhou Xiao decided to do recently is related to music, and he wants to release a single in the near future, this single...... It's not that he sings it himself, but gives the song to other singers. As for why he wanted to do this, in fact, the main reason was Kana Nishino.

If you want to say that in the Japanese music scene after 2oo5, there are not many singers who really rely on singing, and there are even fewer female SO1O singers, among these SO1O singers, Kana Nishino should undoubtedly be regarded as the best one.

If you want to talk about Kana Nishino's singing skills and her ability, there is still a gap between her and those big singers and singers with high talents, but the characteristics of her own songs and her voice are quite good. This can allow her to confirm her status after her debut.

If you want to talk about Kana Nishino's achievements, you can't look at the sales of CD singles, Kana Nishino only had four words for CD sales when she first debuted, which is miserable!

Kana Nishino's first single that year. o Daily net weekly sales ranking...... No. 155, Zhou Xiao estimated that in the past week, the total sales of her singles have not exceeded 1ooo. By the time of the second single, Kana Nishino finally achieved more than 1,000 sales, while climbing 33 places in the ranking of O-Day Net. It ranked 122nd in the weekly sales of the week.

This kind of sales seems to be embarrassing, but in fact, considering the situation of Kana Nishino, the results are actually quite good, because at this time, Japanese sales are no longer the world of CD sales.

Kana Nishino's singles, not to mention the charts in various other places, have earned quite a lot of radio on-demand and mobile phone delivery alone.

There have been statistics in later generations, some of Kana Nishino's singles, just relying on the delivery of mobile phones and music products including iPod, have been equivalent to or even sold millions of singles, and such singles, Kana Nishino has several, and counting the money earned from various 1ive performances, don't look at the Japanese entertainment industry after 2oo5 years to say that records can't be sold, what the industry market is shrinking, in fact, it really has to be investigated, singers who have become popular, there has never been a shortage of ways to make money, In the past, you may have been able to make a lot of money on CD royalties, but now CDs can't be sold, relatively speaking, singers actually only make a little less, if you look at the inventory of various industries to make money, the money they make is still in the top part of the artists.

Such Kana Nishino is naturally a cash cow loved by everyone, if possible, Zhou Xiao must want Kana Nishino to include him in his company.

But...... It's one thing to have this kind of thinking, but whether you can do it or not is another.

Kana Nishino's debut is said to be quite legendary, unlike those idols who accompanied her friends to participate in the audition and were selected, she didn't really want to join the Japanese entertainment industry, it was her mother who sang well as a girl, so she quietly recorded her song and submitted it to Sony Music.

This process may sound interesting, but it is bad news for Zhou Xiao, because before signing with Sony, Zhou Xiao could hardly find this girl. You know, next year's selection of Sony is to select one person out of 40,000 people, and this Cheng dù's selection of Kana Nishino has been selected, which shows that she is really favored by Sony, almost certainly, once she is shown by Sony, Zhou Xiao and AZX may not have a chance, that is Sony, a large company, AZX, a small brokerage company that was almost Zhou Xiao's one-person company before, is too far behind it.

Therefore, according to Zhou Xiao's current thoughts, his only chance is to ...... What successfully aroused Kana Nishino's, not, at least not just his mother's interest, gave him a chance to get Kana Nishino's selection application!

It's a slim chance, but it's the only chance he has left.

And Zhou Xiao's approach is also very simple, in his memory, he knows that Kana Nishino likes a singer called Fan n Fan very much, and at the same time. She also has experience in studying in Europe and the United States, and she likes all kinds of European and American music, so she is naturally Zhou Xiao's approach...... Kana Nishino's song after a day, and then handed it over to the fans to sing.

On the one hand, Kana Nishino likes fans very much, on the other hand, he should like the songs he sings in the future, of course, it is not excluded that the singer has been reluctant to sing songs he doesn't like, but such a situation is really rare, and Zhou Xiao is not stupid. He can know what style he is obsessed with, and he can know the style of the fan n fan, and then study and study the style of Kana Nishino in his mind, and he can capture the appropriate repertoire very well, so as to attract this little girl.

As for fan n fans, will they accept their songs? This question...... Is it possible that she will not accept it? Zhou Xiao now means sales, as long as Zhou Xiao's songs are not particularly bad, it is a sure profit.

After careful selection, Zhou Xiao finally chose the song "遠くても", which is Kana Nishino's fifth single. The reason why Zhou Xiao chose this single is because he himself wants to appear in the song, so that fans can better promote his cooperation with her, so as to arouse Kana Nishino's interest.

As for the so-called cooperation of the song "遠くても". In fact, there is no part of Zhou Xiao singing in this song, he will be mainly responsible for the rap part, Zhou Xiao has never learned rap or anything, although strictly speaking, it cannot be regarded as singing. But rap is also very professional, in order to better cooperate with fans, Zhou Xiao even invited a teacher to give him assault training for a period of time. It's barely up to the mark, and the invitation to cooperate is given to fans n fans.

Fan n fan this singer has a very powerful husband is Japan's famous Shonan Naifeng Ruodana, but she herself is not particularly famous as a singer, and the first single of Kana Nishino's debut is only 155 different, the first single of the fan n fan, the fourth highest position of the O day net seems to be quite good, in fact, it depends on the sales, it is also quite good, and in the end, this single sold a total of 5o million copies, put it in 2o14, which is able to be behind AKB, Compete with Arashi and SKE48 for the top ten results of the year, but unfortunately it was in 2oo2, the last glorious era when there were many strongmen and singers...... So the fan n fan tragedy, 4 followed by 8, then 17, from this point of view, fan n fan is the most standard push failure for the record company......

Although her popularity is getting worse and worse, this does not prevent some people from liking her, such as Kana Nishino is a typical example.

Of course, after Kana Nishino was completely obsessed with N fans in the future, even if there was a relationship between the two of them, it would definitely become very weak.

After AZX invited the company of fan n fans, he immediately got an extremely excited response from the other party, no way, the current fan n fans have sold four singles, but the sales have not improved, and by the fourth single, the highest ranking has fallen to 19th, and according to the company's forecast, her popularity and sales are still declining, and by the time of the fifth single, maybe she won't even be able to enter the top 30.

But at this time, Zhou Xiao's invitation almost saved such a woman who was facing difficulties in sales.

The quality of the song "遠くても" is still quite good, although there is a rap part, even people who are used to listening to European and American songs have a good acceptance of Cheng dù, but it is still a very standard Japanese sound, and it is very suitable from the lyrics to the song, such a song, or Zhou Xiao took it out, and it is a crazy situation for any singer, if there are Chinese around the fans, they will definitely think: "What kind of virtue has the fans accumulated in their last life......"

Because the songs are very mature, Zhou Xiao can also arrange the music by himself, so the process of recording the song with fans quickly arranged the time and place, of course, this time and place were chosen by Zhou Xiao, and his time was not so sufficient.

The recording process of the song is also very easy, Zhou Xiao took over not only the score when he handed the song to the fans, but also included a recorded net fan of how to sing and arrange the song, within a few days of preparation, the fans had already practiced the song, and they were waiting for the cooperation with Zhou Xiao.

It took more than a day for Zhou Xiao and the fans to finally record this single, this is just a small episode in Zhou Xiao's work, he doesn't really care about it, for Kana Nishino in the future, he just has the intention of doing his best to obey the destiny of heaven, but for fans of N fans, this is indeed a cooperation that saves her singing life, so of course she will be very grateful to Zhou Xiao, so within two days of cooperation, this good-looking woman even wants to have a special relationship with Zhou Xiao. Zhou Xiao didn't know whether she really wanted to hook up with herself, or just repay or want to fight for a one-night stand, although this woman was good-looking, she couldn't be regarded as Zhou Xiao's dish, so he still politely rejected the other party.

In fact, in the Japanese entertainment industry for a few years, Zhou Xiao is too familiar with such rejections, he has actually shown a few dewy loves, but the refusal is more, maybe there will be dozens of times a year, from singers to actors, and even men and women are not necessarily.
