Chapter 680: The Dream of 1830 Meters

In fact, in history, the second formation of the AKB48 group was held this summer, but Zhou Xiao advanced the time by about half a year in order to cooperate with the new performance.

The new performance of the three groups of AKB48 has lasted for nearly two years, and it is naturally incomparable to Zhou Xiao's outrageous thick-skinned performance in his previous life, so since last year, various preparations for AKB's new performance have begun, and the first selection is the selection of candidates who will be responsible for the performance of the next four AKB teams.

As a result of the final selection, Tetsuro Oda got the performance creation of Group A, Tetsuya Komuro got the performance creation of Group K, the performance producer of Group B was Zhou Xiao himself, and the producer of Team4 in the future was ZARD.

Among these four people, Oda Tetsuro's music creation is the most free and rich, and the performance of Group A is the most suitable, Komuro Tetsuya's style is more suitable for Group K, and Group B is produced by Zhou Xiao, because Zhou Xiao has the most ideas for the two girls, Mayou and Airi, and when he arrived at Team 4, it is because Sister Quanshui's music style is more suitable for the 4 pairs of energetic styles.

However, although the general composition and soul members of the team will definitely not change, as for the ordinary members, Zhou Xiaohe feels that it will be very effective to adjust it, so he will come up with a cabinet on the spring con.

In addition to these two, there is also an announcement, for which the members will only be happy, but before the concert starts, they need to find someone to make a short film for this announcement.

This person is Minami Takahashi, and this short film is, of course, the AKB Group's Tokyo Dome this summer.

Of course, according to Zhou Xiao's character, when she told her the news, how could there be no camera to record it.

So, a few days before the concert started, Minami Takahashi, who didn't know anything, was notified that she was going to work at the theater soon.

The girl, who had long been accustomed to not knowing the content of her work before going, came to Akihabara by car. and met Zhou Xiao in the theater.

"Brother Zhou Xiao! Long time no see! The girl greeted in surprise, for the sake of the morning drama, Zhou Xiao has indeed not appeared in AKB work for more than ten days, which is indeed a long time since the girls......

"Takamina, I'm sorry to let you do it again." Zhou Xiao said with a serious face.

"Yes, what's the matter?" Gao Qiao Nan looked at Zhou Xiao's serious face, and his heart tightened.

"That...... En......" Zhou Xiao struggled and couldn't open his mouth.

"What's wrong, Brother Zhou Xiao? What's the matter? The girl was nervous.

"Suddenly there's a video that you need to shoot, but this is ...... You have to be mentally prepared. Zhou Xiao said.

"Take a video? This one...... Do you need any mental preparation? ”

"It's mainly the content of the video, and it's one thing that we announced in advance, and this thing is ...... It's a big stimulus for everyone. Zhou Xiaodao.

"Bigger of the stimulus? Good...... Okay, I know, Brother Zhou Xiao, you can say it. I can handle it. The girl became nervous, too, and she pondered for a moment before agreeing.

"Are you ready?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"Well......! I'm ready! Minami Takahashi, whose tears are super low, had red eyes when he said this.

"Then I said, what are you going to shoot later...... A few days later, the opening video of the spring con, the name of this opening film is ...... 1830 meters. ”

"1830 meters?" Takahashi Minami was a little surprised, why is it such a number with zero and integer?

"Well, do you know what that number means?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"No...... I don't know," the girl said.

"The number is...... The distance from the theater at our feet in Akihabara to the Tokyo Dome Stadium. Zhou Xiaodao.

"East ...... Tokyo Dome? For a moment, Takahashi Minami was still a little stupid.

"Yes!" Zhou Xiao finally showed his evil smile, looked directly at the girl and nodded.

Takahashi Minami covered his mouth violently!

Zhou Xiao didn't speak, but just smiled and looked at the girl.

It's a bad blast for a smile.

"East ...... Dongdong Dongdong Tokyo Dome!? Takahashi Nan, who understood what Zhou Xiao meant, cried almost instantly.

She knew too well what the venue meant to AKB.

From the very beginning of AKB, Tokyo Dome has been the biggest target for girls. They encourage each other to come here, and Tokyo Dome is the place where their dreams come together, just like the AKB advertised in the previous life, the AKB before Tokyo Dome is the first chapter of this group. After arriving at Tokyo Dome, AKB came to their second chapter, and the meaning of Tokyo Dome can be said to connect the two eras of AKB.

She will open the door to a dream come true. How could the girl not be excited.

"Where are we going? It's true? Takahashi Minami kept asking.

"Really, Tokyo Dome, you did it!" Zhou Xiao smiled and encouraged.

"Finally...... Finally did it, Brother Zhou Xiao! Takahashi Minami cried and laughed. I was almost completely unable to control my emotions.

"Come on! Come here! Zhou Xiao beckoned to the girl, and Takahashi Nan immediately threw himself into his arms, completely releasing his emotions.

This hug is not a hug between men and women, but a hug between friends and comrades-in-arms.

The girl's video shoot was carried out without all the members for about two hours, and during these two hours, Zhou Xiao personally carried the camera and walked with the girl on the road from Akihabara to Tokyo Dome, and the two chatted as they walked, reminiscing about the recent band of "GivemeFive" since 2005.

This road has not been going for a long time, but under Zhou Xiao's control, Takahashi Minami said a lot of things, from his own state of mind, to his experience in the past few years, to his apprehension after becoming popular, and when he walked to Tokyo Dome, Zhou Xiao put down the camera and said with satisfaction: "The shooting is good, then it's over!" ”

"Is it enough once? Don't you need to shoot again and prepare some more footage? Minami Takahashi asked.

"No, there should be a lot of pictures from your past in it when the video is played, so there is no problem with editing this more than an hour into a three- to five-minute video, I'm sorry for you today, remember to keep it secret from everyone!" Zhou Xiao said.

"Yes! Thank you, Brother Zhou Xiao! After the girl looked back at the egg-shaped stadium again, she bowed to Zhou Xiao very seriously and thanked her, this time thanking. One is polite, and nine is to thank him for bringing them here.

"Okay, don't thank you, I can get this far, I have helped you to a certain extent, but this kind of help is not much, you can really stand here on your own, go and get ready to enjoy your Tokyo Dome." Zhou Xiao handed over the camera to the staff to go back to editing, and he himself waved to the girl before getting into the car and leaving.

Then, a few days flew by.

Another weekend. Early in the morning, vans and buses began to greet the back door of the Saitama Super Arena, and the AKB Group, from AKB48 to HKT48, entered the stadium in an endless stream of girls.

Not only at the back door, but also in the square in front of the stadium, even if it is only in the morning, and the first concert officially starts at five o'clock in the evening, a large crowd has already begun to gather in the square.

In the stadium, the girls, who did not wear makeup and did not change their clothes, gathered first on the stage. Be prepared to say hello to all the staff on site.

Takahashi Minami stood in the center of course as a matter of course, and after confirming the number of people, he picked up the microphone and said, "Good morning everyone, you have worked hard all day today!" ”

"Good work!" The girls bowed.

The staff below also returned the salute, and then the director's voice suddenly rang out: "Members of the AKB. I'm going to interject here, isn't there a stage before the show starts? All the members appear on the stage, and then leave the main members to star in the first song, in fact. After all the members appear, we have a video to play, so please don't worry. Just watch the video in place and you're good to go. ”

"Video!? Play it before the concert!? What is it? The girls looked at each other in surprise, and they all saw confusion and curiosity in each other's eyes.

However, everyone has been frightened for so many years, so they quickly thought of it.

"It must be Brother Zhou Xiao's gimmick again, right?"

"What will you get out this time?"

"This time is announced, I guess it's the general election this year or something."

"What else is there besides the general election? Summer festival? Summer concerts? I can't get out of these categories. "The girls are already quite experienced.

After saying hello, we went to rehearsal work as usual, and in the evening, the show was finally about to begin.

When the diners entered the venue, Zhou Xiao and Qiu Yuankang also came to the audience.

"It's going to be announced, right?" Yasu Akimoto asked.

"Yes! It's finally here! Zhou Xiao said with a lot of energy.

"You look so excited." Akimoto said with a smile.

"It's a dream come true, of course I'm excited!" Zhou Xiao said.

He was really excited, around the spring of 2012 in his previous life, it was very challenging for AKB, at the end of '11, the girls won the record award for the first time, in late January '12, the band plan for "givemefive" was announced, and then in the spring CON, when the AKB group was the first branch part-time, and Atsuko Maeda announced her graduation.

So many things happened in just a few months, constantly challenging the nerves of AKB Group's meals, making them extremely excited throughout the first half of the year, and even after the Tokyo Dome in August.

In this life, from the new experience of this period of history, Zhou Xiao also admitted that he likes this kind of surprise link the most, even if there is no surprise at all for him at this time, his heart still keeps recalling the turbulent mood he was about to face at this moment.

That's right, of course, the members themselves are happy about things like going to Tokyo Dome, but the happiness of the rice is often not inferior to that of the members, and the fan idol rice is a creature that has always cared more about the mood of the idols than about their own feelings, and as long as the members are happy, it is the happiest thing for them.

At this time, sitting in the audience, watching the ignorant eaters enter the arena and sit excitedly waiting for the opening, Zhou Xiao is also extremely looking forward to them seeing what the video will look like.

He didn't wait long either.

After the meal was ready, the first CON show in the spring of 2012 began quickly.

This spring CON, because there is an opening film, the production team arranged an opening process that is different from usual.

First of all, the members appeared in a skit similar to last spring's CON, but the difference is that last spring's CON skit was played. The members pretended to go to school, but now everyone started with a dance, not to mention the excitement, and when the dance was over, the girls gathered on the huge stage in the stadium.

"Welcome to AKB48's spring concert today!" As soon as Minami Takahashi said hello, the lights in the stadium dimmed.

"Huh? What's going on? Although they knew that the video was going to be played, the girls still looked surprised and overwhelmed.

At this time, if it is a smart audience, it will be noticed that although the girls are full of surprise, they all turn their eyes to the big screen for the first time, and it is obvious that even if they don't know what to announce, they must know that there is something to be announced here.

"Click. Click......" The sound of Minami Takahashi's small leather shoes echoed throughout the stadium.

1830M。

A number in white letters on a black background appears on the big screen.

“1830…… Rice? "Some of the rice came out.

“1830? Who was that guy just now? The girls on stage, who were also confused and watching the big screen, didn't know what the video meant in the first place.

"It's amazing, it feels like an old story!" The girl's voice rang out.

The number 1830 appears in the center of the video, and the figure of Minami Takahashi steps out of the elevator of the Don Quixote building.

"You went to shoot!? What were you shooting? On the stage, Takahashi Minami was beside her, and Atsuko Maeda pushed her and asked.

"You'll know if you see it!" Of course, Minami Takahashi will not spoil at this juncture.

"I hate it, hide it from us with Brother Zhou Xiao!" Maeda said coquettishly.

"That's it! Even I don't know! Yuko also said beside him.

"Yuko, you don't know either?" Maeda was a little surprised.

"Yes! Hey Takamina, are you the only one who knows about this? Yuko asked.

"That's right, only me and the crew who made this film know." South Takahashi Road.

In the video "It still feels like it's an incredible ......", the number of 1830 is slowly decreasing, and girls are walking on the streets of Akihabara.

“AKB! forty-eight! "Some gray videos. It clearly shows what the girls looked like more than six years ago, and seeing this, the voices of some discussions around Takahashi Minami have also quieted down, and everyone has paid attention to the video itself.

The numbers continue to decrease.

Minami Takahashi recounts his nostalgia for the past. Uneasiness about the future.

The screen shows Mariko Shinoda handing out flyers on the street.

Although the appearance of her handing out flyers in this life is actually a pose followed by several cameras around her.

"I can't puff up my chest and say I'm in AKB48...... There were also days when it was said to be cute......" Takahashi's words brought the girls back to the days when Akihabara seemed to be dark.

AKB in that era was just a derivative of Akihabara's anime culture.

The number that has always been in the center of the screen. It is decreasing at an accelerated rate visible to the naked eye.

"Today, we have our first theater full performance!" Uncle Inoue's announcement was accompanied by a gray and yellow picture. The appearance of the rice supporting.

The pace is getting faster.

Team K joined the AKB.

Group B joined the AKB.

Minami Takahashi's figure walks through the streets of Tokyo.

Rejected the announcement of the invitation to the Red and White Song Society, and the girls looked incomprehensible.

In "Loud Diamonds", Jurina shouts "marikosama" to the camera.

The handshake party began, and the general election ...... Amina's crying confession, Atsuko Maeda's victory.

The first pavilion festival, the Chiaki music performance, and the letters written by the girls to the three captains......

Here it is...... Halfway through the video, the background music gradually becomes full of power and rhythm from soft to soft, indicating that AKB's popularity began to take off at this time.

Dance practice in "RIVER", and the girls shook hands with energetic faces.

Finally got the invitation of the Red and White Song Club and hugged and cried excitedly.

In "Sakura Bookmark", he walked through the streets of Tokyo in an angelic kimono yukata, and the shooting scenery of "Ponytail and Hair Ring".

The announcement of "Second Place, AKB48TeamA" was the unbelievable look of Maeda and Yuko.

The number has been reduced to less than 1,000, and the timeline has been pushed to Akion Takayanagi's first championship in the boxing competition.

The audience and members, although they were always curious about what the number in the center was, did not have much time to discuss it, and everyone was immersed in the memories of AKB in this short video.

For the meal, for the members, this is their own history, the history they have created.

After the guessing tournament, the award of the record awards, the establishment of Team4, the 11-year general election, Maeda's revenge and Yuko's tears of grievance......

In reality, Minami Takahashi began to climb the steps.

In the video of the recollection, the timeline was also pushed to the tragic concert in the summer of 11.

"Let's support each other and move towards a higher goal!" The girl's voice was accompanied by her face full of longing......

And then...... Mariko won the championship, the record award was won again, and "GiveMeFive" was announced......

Digit...... Entered within 100......

"Finally here...... But...... It feels like it's been so far away......"

In the video, the girl's shoes stand on top of the triangular floor tiles.

Some people who have been there and have a deep impression of Tokyo Dome cover their mouths!

The number from 100 to 10 turned rapidly, until it was within 10 and then to 1, and the number finally slowed down.

The old video flashed back again, and Minami Takahashi, who was 14 years old, flashed on the big screen when he participated in the AKB audition.

But soon, the girl's realistic smiling face in the sun took over the screen again.

A crystal tear slid silently down his cheek.

Minami Takahashi's six years, in the video, flashed back in the minds of countless people, this is her six years, and it is also their six years.

Finally, the camera pans to the place where the girl is looking.

The picture on the screen gradually blurred and became clear, and the number 1 in the center of the screen finally became 0 against the backdrop of the huge sports field behind it.

TOKYODOME!

Dream come true. (To be continued......)
