The preparation of AKB members for two years,The meaning of the operation was originally to put it in the DVD after the release of the TV series,This can bring great help to the distribution of the DVD,It can also bring enough benefits to the operation,Not enough Zhou Xiao denied this,He asked the operation to make the documentary public and put it on the Internet.,Not only on the Internet.,It's completely free to put on the Internet.,You know,There aren't many cases in Japan.,Japanese people are still very used to paying for things they like.。

What AKB has experienced in the past two years, just look at the content of this documentary called "Why Do You Want to Learn Martial Arts Even If You Are an Idol".

At the beginning of the film, it was about Zhou Xiao rather than the members.

Shortly after the 2008 song rankings, Zhou Xiao went to the Academy Awards and won the best foreign Chinese film at that Oscars with "The Undertaker", but this is not the focus of this documentary, the focus of this documentary is that Zhou Xiao also stopped by the court to watch a basketball game.

The ball game is not the key, the key is on the court, Zhou Xiao met a person.

This person is Jackie Chan.

It was also through this exchange that Zhou Xiao finally decided on the specific schedule and contract for inviting the family class to Japan to teach the members to practice.

In fact, Zhou Xiao and Jackie Chan talked a lot about their meeting, not to mention age and the table in the Chinese circle, even in Japan, Jackie Chan can be said to be Zhou Xiao's absolute senior, Jackie Chan in the 80s was also a superstar in Japan who absolutely called the wind and rain, or rather, in that era. He is a rare superstar who can spread his popularity throughout Southeast Asia, and can be said to be a "one-of-a-kind" superstar, and what he has done in movies is almost completely unrepeatable.

In addition, the romantic history of Jackie Chan is also something that Zhou Xiao is quite interested in, the Japanese girl's infatuation with this big brother, even when Zhou Xiao was at the height of his fame, was far, far away, it was a special legend created by a special era, and it passed that era. No one can do it anymore. The eldest brother also had several Japanese girlfriends back then, so in this regard, Zhou Xiao was still very ...... with him Common language.

After returning from the United States for another month, in March 2008, the AKB members finally met with the instructors sent from Hong Kong from the Family Formation Class.

There are a total of four instructors, two men and two women, all of whom came out of the family class, and it may not be easy for them to be bodyguards to protect someone, but it is wonderful to let them break down and fight each other. It's what they do best.

In addition to these four instructors of the family class, there are also two Japanese karate and aikido instructors, and one of these two instructors is from the disciple of Mr. Kurata Yasuaki, who is the most famous work in China. It should be Jet Li's "Jingwu Hero" in 1994.

Soon, the AKB members began to learn martial arts.

In the first few months, when the AKB itself was not too busy, it was the most difficult months for the girls.

It was supposed to be in the minds of the girls. What kind of kung fu to learn, at most is to learn a few sets of boxing and practice kung fu. They were only beaten a few times by the instructors, but they didn't expect that things were far from simple.

At the beginning of learning martial arts, the instructors actually let them practice from the very basics!

What is the basis?

Two words, horse step!

Of course, the most basic thing in martial arts kung fu is not just horse steps, but what makes the members hate the most, the most painful, and the most want to die is undoubtedly horse steps.

The Chinese are undoubtedly the most aware of the pain of horse steps, standing for a minute or two is no problem, after this time, the members began to suffer unparalleledly, some people insisted on two and a half minutes, some people insisted on three points, this is not over, the instructors seem to have Zhou Xiao's consent, unceremoniously yelling at the members, they really treat them as ordinary students, not teenagers!

When did this group of girls get this kind of treatment, most of them grew up in the super city of Tokyo, enjoying a good life, the most intense and hard work in life may be dancing and sweating, but learning martial arts, standing on horses, the difficulties and hardships faced by girls are not a concept at all.

Just the first horse step training on the first day made all the girls stand and cry.

The painful experience had just begun, and on the second day, the third day, the girls in the kung fu class didn't even do anything, and the instructors only arranged one thing, and that was to stand on the pile, endless on the pile, every day was crazier than the day before!

After three days, the girls no longer have the strength to cry, and in the camera, they look as if they have been drained of their energy, standing there like walking corpses, and in the close-up of the camera, you can even see the girls' legs shaking, as if they are going to fall down at any moment.

And most of the viewers who watched this video already felt that they were about to lose it, and they were completely unprepared when suddenly the girls started such brutal training, and their hearts were quite distressed.

The background commentary of the video even said: "What you see now is just a picture of some members practicing, in fact, in the early days of the first few months of practice, not only will the members receive training twice a week, but the operation is to arrange the time for the members to practice every day when arranging the time, that is, even if you don't go to class, the teacher will arrange the homework for the practice, so each member has experienced a very difficult period of time during this time." ”

After starting to stand on the pile, the girls began their long journey for two full years.

Crying? It's just that crying because of the hard training is actually quite an ordinary situation, and after the hard training, the girls have gradually become accustomed to more painful, one is the doubt about themselves and the future of AKB, and the other is ...... Wounded.

In the first case, which was mainly seen in the first half of 2008, in AKB at its darkest time, the girls were quite worried about the future, while the second situation was a very troublesome situation for the girls.

Beginning in the second half of 2008, loud diamonds became popular in addition. The handshake party began to be held, and the performance was held, and the chances of the members seeing the meal increased dramatically.

But at the same time, the training of kung fu has not stopped, and by the second half of 2008, the girls who have practiced the basics are okay have also begun to practice the routines and battles. It is a dangerous exercise, and it is normal for girls to suffer some large and small injuries, most of these injuries are bruises and other external injuries, and the first few times they encountered this situation, the girls would cry and be sad. even complained about why he was an idol to do such a thing, but after he got used to it, he occasionally had a little injury or something, and it was not so much of a concern.

Many girls will even poke their friends' injuries when they are joking, and everyone no longer takes such a little pain seriously.

Although they no longer care about the pain, things like bruises still cause people trouble, and some members have to be absent from the handshake because of bruises and other reasons, not because they care about the pain, but because the injuries are near the arms, legs and even faces, of course, they can't be seen by the meals.

In the space of two years. The qiē experienced by the girls was narrated under the camera, and with the growth of AKB, the popularity gradually increased. In the midst of their busy work, they also practice martial arts, and in this regard, girls should be considered the most bizarre idols in Japan, and two years of training is not a short time. Although exercise has never been the main job of girls, this thing will also rust if you don't practice for a day, so in two years. No matter how busy the girls are, they are also required by Zhou Xiao, even if they are busy and lazy every day, the amount of exercise in this area must be guaranteed, for this, even if one or two activities are pushed off, it is understandable!

Many times, Zhou Xiao's request is the requirement of operation, but this time, the other people in the operation are not particularly enthusiastic about the girls, but Zhou Xiao's control of the team has always played a role at this time, although there is a certain amount of slander in the operation, but he is still trying to ensure the things that Zhou Xiao asks, for Zhou Xiao, this is enough.

The documentary is thirty minutes long, and this is a relatively rough work, which is understandable, because the editing and director of the entire documentary are editors trained by AZX itself, but the rice people don't particularly care about this, and for the rice guys, as long as they can see the girls' efforts, it's good.

For other ordinary people in Japan, AKB's news this time is also quite interesting, not to mention anything else, just the word Jackie Chan has a very sufficient appeal.

It's also curious and exciting.,There's also this work that has been prepared by the girls for two years.,It's the so-called hot-blooded college style.,Hot-blooded college or something.,Usually women are only in the position of a subsidiary vase.,But this time it's obviously different.,It looks like there's no man at all in the whole work.。

Purely starring girls, hot-blooded dramas, such an entry point is not unheard of in Japan before. But what's curious is that even if there was such a work in the past, it was at most a niche work for a small number of people to watch, and the level of investment to the actors was not too high, and the broadcast time period was usually only selected in the late night file, but AKB This drama is different, this is a prime-time TV series, and as soon as the TV series is on prime time, there are more concerns.

Not only can many things that were originally taboo in the middle of the night be filmed, but even the story style of the series must be orthodox.

AKB's drama is almost entirely about girls playing the main roles...... Can it really look good?

With such thoughts, both ordinary viewers and fans began to care about the same question, that is, what is the plot of this show? Who is the original? And then there's ...... When will it be made public?

These are also very concerning, and some of them were made public the day after the AX100.

The script of this play, in addition to Zhou Xiao, there is another person who has also joined the production zuò, this named Takahashi Hiroshi, is the original author of the hot-blooded college comics, the writing of the script, after Zhou Xiao put forward his own ideas, he carried out the specific writing work.

In terms of plot, compared with the original work, Zhou Xiao has also made considerable changes.

In the original "Road Suga School Park",In fact, strictly speaking, there is no "story",The story of the whole drama is nothing more than Atsuko Maeda's fighting,All the way to the so-called apex or something,Such a "story",There is no problem in the late-night drama, and it can even be said to be just right。 Because the length of the late-night drama itself is the most appropriate after the plot is diluted, the length of an episode of about 25 minutes cannot carry too many stories and characters, and too many descriptions will cause the audience to not understand.

But...... The prime time is different, the prime-time dramas must at least ensure that each episode is more than 40 minutes long, and in addition, the plot cannot just be a fight and kill, if it is a late-night drama. It's okay even if it's a men's drama, but if it's a group of girls who still have no point in fighting, the audience will inevitably be a little suspicious.

So Zhou Xiao also arranged a new plot for the girls' stories, for example, Takahashi Minami was originally a good friend character who passed away as Atsuko Maeda, and now Zhou Xiao has arranged a new role for her, in the new story, Takahashi Minami is the girl who first entered the road Suga to study but disappeared, and Maeda, who is Takahashi Minami's best friend, also entered the road Suka after the girl disappeared. While going to school, Takahashi's disappearance is investigated.

There are two advantages to this change, one is that Maeda transfers and there is enough reason to fight, and the other is that Minami Takahashi will also have his own role. Instead of acting as a dead man like Zhou Xiao in his previous life......

In addition to Minami Takahashi, the roles of the others have also been modified, and in addition, the extra few people are also very interesting.

The new Yuko Oshima faction. The "Four Heavenly Kings" became Tomomi Itano, Yona Kojima, Li Jun and Mai Oshima. The first two characters are basically the same as the previous work, there is nothing to say, among the last two, Li Chun naturally plays the image of a Chinese mother, playing a beautiful Wing Chun boxing, and Mai Oshima has become a somewhat insidious and inconsistent military advisor image in Yuko Oshima's forces, nicknamed "Repeater", because in the setting, Mai Oshima is a girl who failed to graduate and was repeated.

The strength of Matsui Jurina's side has also changed from the two-person group that appeared in the original 2 to the current W Matsui, referring to the original Kashiwagi, Airi Mayu's six-person lineup, and in the setting, these six people are actually faintly divided into three forces but have a very subtle relationship, such as Mayou has a good relationship with Jurina Kashiwagi, Airi has a good relationship with Reina Fingerhara, but Jurina and Kashiwagi, Reina and Fingerhara's relationship is very delicate......

In short, the new "Malu Suga School Park" has more complex and subtle power settings, and these settings are even so complicated that it is difficult for a TV series to completely tell all the stories.

No way, even if you add more details to the story itself, it doesn't mean to tell the story in detail, too complex story settings can only guide the audience to have enough understanding of the plot.

Of course, these details and derivative stories can't be wasted.,Although the level of playback on TV is slightly insufficient.,The operation simply put the spin-off drama on the Internet.,Like this situation of multi-directional layout,If it's another TV unit, there may still be some problems.,But as it has its own network media and the development is quite goodAZX,This kind of thing will have a huge effect on the promotion of the website.。

As for the time of broadcasting,The new "Road Suga School Park" was placed on the Sunday of the April 2010 file,It is a new Japanese drama schedule opened in cooperation with AZX and Japanese tv,In addition to playing Zhou Xiao's "SPEC" and "Antang machine qì people" in the first two years of this schedule, this year's October file was also booked to be in the middle of the "ATARU", and now, the April of this schedule also belongs to AZX, and the new episodes will be broadcast in this time period.

On the fourth day of AX, the surprise announcement was only the first day, and at the end of the second day, what was announced on the stage was just some details of the new drama, and on the third day, there was no announcement, and on the fourth day, the final announcement Zhou Xiao still did not appear on the stage, because the announcement on the fourth day was AKB's new concert.

The venue of the new performance is Yokohama Arena.

In the process of Budokan to Tokyo Dome, AKB still needs to conquer several stadiums including Yokohama Arena and Yoyogi Arena, and then Seibu Dome and Saitama Super Arena, which are considered to be "cushions" for Tokyo Dome, with more than 30,000 seats.

Among these four venues, Yokohama and Yoyogi in front are basically at the same level as the Budokan, with 14,000 to 17,000 level venues, and the back two are arenas with more than 30,000 people.

After entering 2010, concerts will be held one after another, and this year's AKB will be a year of take-off, and there will be quite a lot of new projects and new things being introduced, such as the guessing tournament that may be held after this year's general election, and the open-air performance of Yakushiji Temple that may be held in the middle of the year, and some of last year's good projects, such as the summer festival operation, are not ready to give up.

In addition to these accidents, the national tour that started last year, there will be more trips this year, in fact, this kind of national tour is the most time-wasting and quite difficult to get benefits, the center of Japan is in Tokyo, for the vast majority of artists, as long as they run the Tokyo circle well, it is enough for everyone to have a good life and fame.

But Zhou Xiao knows that AKB's future must not stick to the Tokyo circle, just like SKE's name is innocent, there will be NMB's dress in the future, HKT's Fukuoka, and now it is popular in the Tokyo circle, but it must also consolidate its popularity in the country, so that it is possible to roll out AKB's national strategy in the future.
