After having a meal with Qiu Yuankang and his wife, Zhou Xiao went to the second stall with Qiu Yuankang, and then finally met the owner of the theater with whom he matched.

"M1P Cinema Alliance" is a small cinema alliance rooted in the East Coast of the United States, with more than 40 ...... in New York, New Jersey, Florida, Pennsylvania and other states Cinema and ...... More than 200 movie screens.

……

Looking at the information, Zhou Xiao almost didn't spew out here, the total number of movie screens in the United States is about more than 30,000, and this alliance has 200 screens, which is enough to prove that this alliance is ...... As small as what Cheng dù.

But small is small, for Zhou Xiao, this is a hope, if he can, of course he doesn't want to be able to release his own movies in this kind of small theater, but now he has no choice.

Not much to say, Zhou Xiao and Akimoto Yasu, together with the middle-aged bald man named Loew, found a screening room and began to screen the movie "Ju Ri" that he had been doing for half a year, at this time "Ju Ri" was only the original Japanese sound, but after adding English subtitles below, Loew must seem to have no problem.

On the big screen, light and shadow change, although Zhou Xiao, who was sitting between Akimoto Kang and Loew, was staring at the screen, but the corner of his eyes was always paying attention to the people on both sides, Qiu Yuankang and Loew were very serious, this is a good story, Zhou Xiao is also very tasteful to tell, especially the soundtrack, except for a few that have not yet appeared can be regarded as original, most of the rest are relatively old famous band works, especially the prototype punk rock in the seventies and some real yàn sex bands. For European and American adults, especially those who are engaged in film and television entertainment, even if these things are not familiar to them, they will not sound any obstacles, but they will feel very familiar and have no conflict with their own cultural ideas.

The ninety-five-minute movie is quickly coming to an end, and the film is warm at the end. The arrival of summer full of pink flowers, the movie finally came to an end, and at the end, Zhou Xiao looked at Aoi Miyazaki who was sitting in front of the house and playing the guitar with Mingqing Nakao, his eyes were full of emotion, this movie poured a lot of his effort into it, the camera slowly zoomed out, the low chanting and singing of young men and women were not so perfect, but the guitars of the two and the eyes of the two were so beautiful.

Then the music stopped. The members of the 6 Athletic Club in shorts quietly ran by, and Juri, that is, Aoi Miyazaki, stood up and leaned towards Nakao Akikei's face.

The camera has been stretched far away, and Zhou Xiao knows that this is a borrowed kiss, and with this kiss, the movie has finally come to an end.

The lights in the screening hall were re-lit, and Zhou Xiao could finally turn his head. directly look at the expressions of the two people around him.

Yasushi Akimoto still had that smile on his face, no more, no less, he said, "It's a very good movie, and besides, it's wise that you chose to release it in Europe and the United States instead of Japan." ”

It is worthy of Yasu Akimoto. You can see the characteristics of the movie at once.

"yes, it's a good movie, but a group of Orientals tell a story that's actually Western. I'm worried about whether the film will get enough popularity and popularity......," Loew said.

"Love, Zhou Xiao is my good friend, there is no need to say these words." Yasudo Akimoto.

His meaning is simple. The level of this movie is good, good-looking, there is nothing inappropriate, and the discussion of life choices is deep enough, and there is no need to worry that Europeans and Americans can't understand it, such a film, to say that it is not suitable to be released in Europe and the United States, it is absolutely impossible, so those in Löw's words are openly and secretly faulty, and they seem to be worried that they will not be released, but in fact, it is nothing more than an act of price reduction, Qiu Yuankang was afraid that Zhou Xiaonian would not understand, so he helped block it.

"Mr. Loew, you have also seen this film, Mr. Akimoto is both my friend and your friend, I am sure you will give me a suitable price and arrangement." Zhou Xiao showed weakness to the enemy, he had just turned 2o years old some time ago, and now he said to Loew so sincerely, as if a junior was begging his uncle.

"This ...... Zhou Xiao, to tell you the truth, our cinema chain can't compare with those big cinemas in terms of screen or number of theaters, but our cinema chain also has advantages, first of all, dozens of theaters in our cinema chain are basically located in big cities on the east coast, and our cinemas also have a very good cooperative relationship with those big cinema chains. ”

"Loew, you're still going around the bend." Yasudo Akimoto. What he means is, it's good that Zhou Xiao's movie can be released here for you, as for going to the theater? Even if there is a confident director, I am afraid that he does not have the confidence to think about these things at this time.

"No, it's not a detour, I'm still very optimistic about Zhou Xiao's movie, if the publicity is effective, I think it's very promising to challenge a higher theater chain, so from this point of view, it's absolutely right to choose our theater!" Loew Road.

"Mr. Loew, I can't think of that much right now, let's talk about the specific price, besides, I will fly to Europe tomorrow to attend the film festival there, if you can get a good enough return there, I believe you will not treat me badly." Zhou Xiaodao.

"Going to a film festival?" Loew asked.

"yes, I've already booked an exhibitor." Zhou Xiaodao. What he means is actually hidden in the dialogue, if you are optimistic about this movie, others can also be optimistic, if my film goes to Europe and wins some film festival awards, then the price on your side will not be the current amount.

"Okay, let's talk about the specific price." Loew finally said.

When it comes to the specific price, in addition to Zhou Xiao, Uncle Inoue, who has been following behind him, is also out of the horse, compared with the dead otaku, Uncle Inoue is obviously more familiar with this aspect, in fact, after taking over Zhou Xiao's job, Uncle Inoue took time to learn a lot about the company's operation, contract signing and even how to negotiate.

And Uncle Inoue's opponent, the small boss of this small cinema line, Loew, doesn't seem to be a fuel-efficient lamp, and he is cautious and picky, and he and Uncle Inoue launched an offensive and defensive battle about the film's share, and the two of them are even as low as O.1% of Cheng Dù.

Zhou Xiao listened in a daze on the side. Looking at Qiu Yuankang, who had nothing to do, Zhou Xiao said: "Uncle, why don't you talk about this, I'll go to the third stall with Teacher Qiu Yuan!" ”

"Are you okay?" Uncle Inoue asked.

"What can be the problem, I can't believe it, no one can't trust you, Uncle Inoue." Zhou Xiao patted the other party, easily shook his hand as the shopkeeper, and left the M1P company with Qiu Yuankang.

"Akimoto...... Teacher? Coming out of the company, Qiu Yuankang smiled and repeated Zhou Xiaogang's salutation.

"Uh...... Can I call you that? "Zhou Xiaoyi, the title of Mr. Qiuyuan, he mainly listened to the girls of AKB in later generations call too much. That's why I just called it out.

"It doesn't matter, but I don't think I taught you anything." Yasudo Akimoto.

"What you taught me was not singing or filming, what you taught me was the understanding and ...... of the entire entertainment industry" Zhou Xiao's last sentence: "And the fascination with idol culture." ”

"If you want to talk about the entertainment industry, I haven't left any good property in the entertainment industry." Akimoto said with a smile.

If you want to talk about him, the highest achievement in writing lyrics, naturally it is "The River Flows Endlessly", but if you want to talk about the entertainment industry, even if you make a famous program like "Bestten". It is not necessarily as important as the establishment of a kitten club, but the difference is that the former is a good aspect, while the latter is ...... Although there are also good aspects, but more. What is left is a mess.

"I don't think so, the main reason why the kitten club has such a big impact is that they appeared too early, too powerful, and rushed too hard. In those days...... Although it seems to be more prosperous and wanton than this era, there are too many variables in that era, I think. The reason why the kitten club has such a result in the end is mainly because they are too powerful, they not only dominate TV with the show Sunset Meow, but also dominate the music market, it is very difficult to control such a group without experiencing it at all. Zhou Xiaodao.

"Yes, the biggest regret in my life is that I didn't control that group......" Akimoto Yasusu nodded with emotion, the destruction of the kitten club is very heart-wrenching, and the main reason for the destruction of the miè, to sum up, I am afraid that the loss of control over the team. And this is mainly manifested in two aspects, one is that he is the planner and the staff who take action against the members, and the other is the depravity and intrigue of the members themselves, the former makes the rice lose trust in such a pure idol group, and the latter, it ruins the possibility of survival of the group itself, a group, especially a girls' group, it is natural that there will be intrigues, but if the members of this group have only these in their minds, it is impossible to go far.

"At the end of the day, it's the group...... It's too fast and too fierce, it's ......," Zhou Xiao said.

"yes...... It's so popular that even we, the staff, are not prepared, so who has the luxury of expecting those fifteen or sixteen-year-old children to learn to face their own hearts......"

"That'...... Mr. Akimoto, have you ever wondered what it would be like if, just if, a group like the Kitten Club didn't appear more than a decade ago, but now, or a few years from now? Zhou Xiao asked.

"Now? A few years from now? Akimoto Yasu was not surprised by Zhou Xiao's question, as if he had thought about similar questions a long time ago.

"Now, if it's me, I'm going to make good use of the Internet and ...... I would like to have more control over the team, at least so that they don't fall apart in the endless attrition of infighting like before......" Akimoto Yasumichi.

"Well said! If these two problems can be solved and the Internet can be used well, the new group will definitely be very attractive, but Mr. Akimoto ...... "Zhou Xiao paused.

"What's wrong?" Akimoto squinted.

"If you only think about so much, then I'm afraid you're just an ordinary maker, I don't believe this." Zhou Xiaodao.

"Oh?"

"With your wisdom and experience, it is normal to think that these are all things, but there is one most important thing, and you didn't say it!" Zhou Xiaodao.

"Oh? What is it? ”

"Of course, what kind of group it will be! What is the philosophy of this combination, what is the goal of this combination, what kind of route will this group take, this combination ...... What will it look like in itself! ”

"Hahaha, these things are trade secrets. How could I sue you. Yasu Akimoto said.

And Zhou Xiao also trembled in his heart when he heard his words, he understood that the fat man in front of him had really been thinking about how to create a new group of the Nengyue Kitten Club, and he must have been very obsessed with it for more than ten years.

"Since that's the case, then I won't guess, but Mr. Akimoto, I have a trade secret to tell you." Zhou Xiao said.

In fact, the chat has been going on so far, Zhou Xiao said what he thought. It's already very different from before the chat, before, he was thinking about pulling Akimoto Yasusu together to study and study the establishment of AKB in three years, but now that I look at it, this guy has always minded so much, so much wants to establish a new group from scratch, if he wants to cooperate with him, he can't say that he and his people will end up being set aside or controlled. That wasn't what Zhou Xiao wanted, so he decided to say it first and take Yiqiē into his own hands. After I was able to control this group and the concept of AKB, I went to Yasu Akimoto to cooperate and let him become a person who worked as a maker in Fujidai again. Give people the same role as a part-time job instead of a more powerful role of a person and a shareholder!

As for whether he will let Akimoto Yasushi take this concept that he has already said in advance after he says it?

It's not that Zhou Xiao looks down on Qiu Yuankang or whatever, if he does this, he may not be able to have too good results.

Because Zhou Xiao has nearly ten years of experience in AKB. He knows who can be popular and who can stick to this road, he still has all the problems that Qiu Yuanyasu does not know, such a combination may encounter in the future, AKB This combination, in the hands of Qiu Yuanyasu, I don't know how many times it is on the verge of death, every time at that moment, although he persevered, but the main reason was actually because there was no external force to push it at that time, Zhou Xiao estimated that every time he thought back to the days when those groups were crumbling, I am afraid that at that time, as long as even one straw was put on the team, the whole team will fall apart immediately.

This is Zhou Xiao's confidence.

"Oh? What is it? Qiu Yuankang was still asking Zhou Xiao.

"Mr. Akimoto, in fact, the next thing is what I learned from you, you established the kitten club, the timing is at the end of the idol culture, when people gradually start to feel tired of those traditional idols on the screen, those idols are all pure and beautiful, but in the end, it turns out that idols also have their own joys, sorrows, sorrows, and sorrows, so there will be Nakamori Akina, Koizumi Kyoko is a slightly rebellious idol, but you are not enough now, the real opposite of that idol culture, Not Akina Nakamori, Kyoko Koizumi's rebellion lies in their perfection, these idols are perfect in terms of appearance, singing and even personality, and even their rebellion is perfect.

Then, you break this perfection, completely untrained amateur, school student, clumsily on stage, singing songs that don't require singing skills...... What a genius idea. ”

Qiu Yuankang hugged his arms and looked at Zhou Xiao, his squinted eyes hid his countless feelings.

After the Kitten Club, the Japanese entertainment industry entered a decade-long idol freeze period, until in recent years, the Good Morning Girl Group has re-entered the stage.

But actually, I understand with you that the so-called good morning is essentially no different from your kitten club, they will have a musical part, but in essence, they are running the personality and growth of each individual in a group.

And if you, and if I'm looking to start a new group, we know very well that this group has to have something for the Morning Girl Group! This thing...... What is it? ”

"yes, what's that?" Akimoto said with a smile.

"I thought about it, I thought about it, I thought about it myself, and I thought about it for a long, long time, and later, when I went through all your previous experiences, I suddenly understood that you are a rebel of fate, and if you want to know what you think, just think in the opposite direction of the mainstream ideas in the entertainment industry!"

"Oh?" There was a hint of emotion in Yasushi Akimoto's voice.

"From the past to the present, idols are the kind of high-minded beings, even today's Good Morning Girls Group, they sing on the stage, they have a beautiful face that ordinary people absolutely can't beat, and they are half-truths and half-truths to shape their own character, this is the definition of idols.

But do idols really have to be like this? If...... What if ordinary viewers could easily meet them? What if the stage on which they perform is just a place within reach? If...... They are not only high-ranking idols on TV, but they can also be seen in reality, even ...... What about idols that you can touch!? ”

I'm afraid this is the idol you want to build Akimoto-sensei, right!?

To be honest, in his previous life and present life, Zhou Xiao had never seen Qiu Yuankang open his eyes so wide.
