After the plane landed on Shanghai, Zhou Xiao walked out of the airport with a large group of people.

Originally, if he was just a judge, Zhou Xiao would not have needed to bring such a large group of people, but of course his purpose was not just to be a judge, he also had more important work and purpose for this trip to the mainland.

Zhou Xiao, who came out of the airport, saw Zhou Xiaowan, a distant relative who was holding a sign waiting for him, and Zhou Xiaowan also saw Zhou Xiao, but it seemed that this girl had been frightened by Zhou Xiao and the vast crowd of people behind Zhou Xiao.

"...... this?" Zhou Xiaowan asked with some hesitation.

"Part of it is from our AZX network department, and the other part is from the entertainment department, and this time I mainly want to open a branch and an agency." Zhou Xiao said.

Foreign companies want to enter the mainland, especially the Internet, the entertainment industry and other places have a lot of troubles, even if Zhou Xiao is an overseas Chinese, even if Zhou Xiao has a relationship with Pan Jiale, many things are troublesome to death, this time bringing so many people to do this job, although AZX also had a branch in China and operated the cultural activities of the Women's Twelve Orchestra in China, but such a small company is just to maintain daily operations, and serious investment and business development can't be done.

As for Zhou Xiaowan, her ability is not enough to serve as the chief manager of the mainland branch, but it is no problem to train in this direction.

After two days of running in China for the establishment of a branch and the work of a domestic agency, Zhou Xiao finally found time to go to Changsha, Hunan, and participated in the audition of the third girl.

This audition is much more difficult to do than the final judges, after several days of auditions, Zhou Xiao watched all kinds of contestants, endured all kinds of magic sounds, and finally caught the target he specially ran.

Li Chun (his name was actually changed), he was originally picked up by Chunjun after entering the top 50. But this time, Zhou Xiao didn't even wait for her to enter the audition, so he directly picked her out of the registration form.

Zhou Xiao didn't hide it from the other judges and the staff of the TV station organizer, and handed over the registration form to the people around him.

And the people on the side were also clear about Zhou Xiao's purpose, and another judge with Zhou Xiao asked, "Found the target so quickly?" Don't look at it anymore? ”

Zhou Xiaodao: "If I have other goals, I will look for them again, but this, if nothing else, I will decide." ”

"Oh? Congratulations on that. ”

After the people from the company contacted the girl, Zhou Xiao continued to audition, although the person was found, Zhou Xiao couldn't pick it now. After continuing to be a judge dutifully for more than two hours, Zhou Xiao finally had time to reach his goal this time.

Li Chun in 2006 is actually eighteen years old, compared with eighteen-year-old girls in Japan, many Chinese girls at this age are still pure like little white flowers, they may not have heard any evil jokes in the past eighteen years, nor have they seen any artists dare to take off on TV to only their underwear or even have to be coded by the TV station in the post-production, let alone see the eighteen banned magazine DVDs placed only through a curtain in the corner of the convenience store, it can be said that compared to the current situation that Japan has entered the category of older idols at the age of 18. An eighteen-year-old girl in China, her career in the entertainment industry has just begun.

Li Chun and her mother have been waiting for more than two hours, and in the more than two hours, they have learned more about the origin of Zhou Xiao and AZX in the company of Zhou Xiaowan. Of course, Li Chun knows something about Zhou Xiao, and Li Chun's mother keeps talking, although she also knows who Zhou Xiao is, and even has seen some things about Zhou Xiao in China, but she has never thought of it. Zhou Xiao turned out to be such a powerful star, what a movie box office in units of 100 million, what a well-known music in Japan. After listening to it a lot, Li Chun's mother was even a little suspicious, such a powerful big star would take a fancy to her woman, and she was ready to see her in person and take her to Japan? My own girl...... It doesn't seem like there's much to start.

After saying everything he could say, he waited for more than ten minutes, and as soon as the door opened, Zhou Xiao finally came in.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I've been doing auditions just now, you know I'm a judge, it's always inconvenient to walk away, it's too much to let the two of you wait for me, this is Li Chun, right? This is an aunt? Hello, I'm Zhou Xiao, excuse me. "After Zhou Xiao came in, he said a lot.

"Hello, I heard that you are willing to sign a contract with my daughter? It's just Japan, I'm more worried, where will I hate the Chinese? Li Chun's mother shook hands with Zhou Xiao and said.

"Auntie, this question ...... In fact, it is impossible to say that there are no people who hate each other in two countries, and in the same way, there are many people in Japan who hate Japan, right? But...... I don't think we can deny Yiqiē because of this, Li Chun may encounter some voices who are not used to her when she gets there, but I think that as long as she is a hard-working, serious person, she will definitely be recognized by the locals.

Moreover, don't forget jì, I am also Chinese, and I am barely a good Chinese, I can promise you here, after she goes to Japan, I will do my best to protect her and will not let her have any problems! Zhou Xiao said.

In the previous life, when Chunjun's company took Li Chun to Japan, this girl's heart must have been very worried, this time the person who communicated was replaced by Zhou Xiao, and the girl may still be worried in her heart, but compared to Chunjun, Zhou Xiao's Chinese identity should also play a role, at least it won't make her worry about her safety and the company's authenticity.

The news that Zhou Xiao took away a girl from the audition site did not cause any reaction from the TV station and the organizer, because this was originally one of the contents of the agreement for Zhou Xiaolai to be a judge, which could not even be regarded as news, so only on some websites did the news be published and the review was drowned in other news, almost not attracting any mainstream media attention.

After doing the judges' work, Zhou Xiao stayed in the mainland for another three or four days, and only returned to Japan after thoroughly sorting out the affairs of the branch.

This time, Zhou Xiao came to establish a branch, its main business is actually the network rather than entertainment and entertainment, AZX's network department is mainly in China to open a blog and niconico video station two businesses, and Zhou Xiao also knows that among these two businesses, the video station is to be well managed. The blog is to prepare for the future Weibo and fackbook websites, and after Zhou Xiao arrived in China, the first job he arranged for AZX was to ...... Acquisition of Renren.

Renren was founded at the end of 05 and was originally to be acquired in October this year, but now, Zhou Xiao and his AZX have a lot of money, and a lot of gold yuan will be smashed down, and the acquisition of Renren will not be able to bear it. Of course. As outsiders, Zhou Xiao and AZX are not prepared to interfere too much with the operation of Renren.com, this campus-based fackbook website has strong Chinese characteristics, and many things are incomprehensible to the Japanese people of AZX, so although they are acquired, Zhou Xiao also requires that the Japanese background of Renren must be deliberately diluted, after all, college students are the most easily fanned group, and when there is a dispute between the two countries in the future, if they are instigated to boycott Japanese products or something, AZX will be very passive.

After bringing Li Chun back to China. Zhou Xiao first arranged for the girl to undergo a certain amount of training, and she will participate in the selection of third-term students instead of entering the AKB now.

After returning to Japan from China, Zhou Xiao's first job was to meet several actors in a row.

Tomohisa Yamashita. Masami Nagasawa, Naoto Fujiki, Nana Eikura, Yuta Hiraoka...... These people. All of them are the actors he is going to film, the marriage proposal, but none of these actors are supposed to play the goblins. Hiroshi Mikami, who gave Tomohisa Yamashita time travel, because this person ...... Zhou Xiao is ready to act by himself!

Zhou Xiao originally liked this Japanese drama very much, plus he was originally a traverser, so he empathized with this drama, he had no interest in replacing Yamashita Tomohisa as the leading actor, in his opinion, even if his acting skills were enough, it was still Yamashita Tomohisa, the male protagonist in his impression, who was more suitable to play, and himself, if he wanted to play, he could be a key role like a goblin.

As for his appearance as a goblin, there will be some drama in the film such as his debut work "Little Love", Zhou Xiao had to paint his makeup a little older, and forcibly pretended that the two had nothing to do with each other.

The filming of "Marriage Proposal" has actually been prepared and notified last year, and the actors' schedules on various TV stations have been vacated early, and among these actors, especially Masami Nagasawa is the most excited, she originally thought that after AZX had Horikita Maki and Aragaki Yui, she would have no chance to cooperate with Zhou Xiao again, but she didn't expect Zhou Xiao to consider the two actresses of her company at all this time and found her directly, which made her very excited, what four pillars, On the surface, it seems that they sympathize with each other, but in fact, no one is convinced by anyone in their hearts, and everyone can't wait to press each other.

At the beginning of June, AKB48's second single "Skirt Fluttering" was also released, and the selection team of this single has changed a lot from Zhou Xiao's "Skirt Fluttering" in history.

Zhou Xiao's skirt is fluttering, and the seven members of the selection team on the CD cover are Tomomi Itano, Mai Oshima, Yona Kojima, Minami Takahashi, Atsuko Maeda, and Rina Nakanishi and Risa Narita.

And now in this new "Skirt Fluttering", Narita Risa is not a member of AKB at all, and Nakanishi cuisine is destined to be impossible to be regarded as a central member by Zhou Xiao because of some things, so two places are vacant in the original seven selection positions.

Who will choose these two places?

Originally,Among the seven people in the skirt,The other five people can be regarded as the most popular in TeamA,This is the case from the beginning of its establishment to the AKB fire in 2010,The strength of these five people highlights another problem,That is, in addition to these five people,TeamA's other people are not popular enough to compare,Even in fact, I have been an artist for a while,Nakajima Mawei and Takamoto Aya are also relatively good in singing skills and professionalism., It's also because it's not very popular with otaku and it's a little bit different from these five people in terms of popularity.,Whoever puts it.,I'm afraid you can't escape the fate of Nakanishi cuisine and Narita pear yarn playing soy sauce.。

So...... Just think about the second phase of life?

But if you think about the second generation, one of the simplest questions is...... Who's on?

In Zhou Xiao's thoughts, Yuko Oshima must be the one who will occupy a place, except for Yuko Oshima? Operations other than Zhou Xiao should be more interested in Ono Mei Reina, and if you want to make this single more popular and better, putting Mita Yurika on the cover will obviously play a greater role, but neither Ono nor Mita is the person Zhou Xiao wants to push. One of these two people had to be suppressed, and the other was obviously not likely to stay in the team for long, and it was clear that neither of them was the right person to be the center of the team, as for the others? The other elected members were even more difficult to convince the public.

"Why don't you let mine the shore south and Yuko Oshima." Zhou Xiao said that the configuration of six first-term students and one second-term student can highlight the special status of Yuko Oshima, and there will be no problem with the extra person being put on Fenggannan.

"Why is it Hogan South and not Nakkai-Western cuisine? And it's not just her, but Yuko Oshima too, their dancing is too mature and doesn't feel like it's suitable for this single. Someone asked.

In Zhou Xiao's history, the reason why Feng Annan failed to become one of the seven people in the skirt. One of the reasons is because she dances so well, but she doesn't have that sense of youthfulness.

Zhou Xiao didn't have any special liking for Feng Annan, and she was not Zhou Xiaotui's person in her previous life, but in the face of this statement, Zhou Xiao still said: "You can't deprive a person of the opportunity because she dances well, if she is not suitable because she dances too well, then let her dance clumsily, but if a person doesn't jump well, it is very difficult for us to make her have to jump better." If you really use this excuse to not let her go, and let the girls not practice hard. ”

"In that case, the choice of the new single is decided?"

"It's just the seven of them, put Maeda in the middle. Kojima and Mai Oshima are placed on either side, while Yuko Oshima is symmetrical with Minami Takahashi. Zhou Xiao said.

"Okay, no problem."

Shortly after this conversation, seven girls were selected to shoot the single's CD cover and music video. Zhou Xiao was not present when these works were carried out, and even the director and filming location of the MV were all people found by the people in the operation side according to Yasushi Akimoto's recommendation.

"Fluttering Skirts" will be released on June 7. The CD includes tickets for fan meetings, and the zuò is made with great care.

It's just that, unlike the first single, which many people buy and try first, after the second single loses its topicality, the possibility of ordinary fans buying it will decrease rapidly, and those who will really buy CDs are only the people who are really annoyed with AKB, and no matter how high the purchasing power of these people is, when there is no handshake party, it is impossible for one ticket per person to inspire people's desire to buy more, so when two weeks have passed, the sales of the single are only in the early 20,000s, and the tragic ratings of more than half of the first single can't help but be very disappointing.

This sales were only achieved after AKB's first appearance in famous music programs such as "musicstation" after its establishment.

Being able to be on MS this time can be regarded as Zhou Xiao and Qiu Yuankang's contribution together, originally in this show, you are not qualified for a combination that has just debuted and has no achievements, and the program team agreed to let you be on the show purely for the sake of the face of Zhou Xiao and Qiu Yuankang's joint production zuò people.

In addition to MS, AKB also appeared on two other music programs, plus some activities after the release of the single, the promotional activities for the second chapter of the single were completed, and "Skirt Fluttering" finally got more than 20,000 sales, and this sales volume was a loss to grandma's house compared to the money and favor paid for shooting the single, but no one cared about this, even AKB in the Akimoto Yasuya era never relaxed on music singles, after all, this is the direction that the operation has determined, What's more, the person who is operating now has been replaced by Zhou Xiao, who is more wealthy.

Before Zhou Xiao entered the film crew to shoot "Marriage Proposal", he went to Akihabara again to watch AKB's performance, Zhou Xiao has been really busy recently, in addition to the movie, TeamK's new performance He has also handed in the song, K2 performance is the first original performance of Group K, Akimoto Yasu should now be writing lyrics based on this performance, and AKB's next big event has been set by Zhou Xiao.

When the performance ended, it was not surprising that Zhou Xiao appeared on the stage again.

"Oh oh oh!" Otaku now understand a lot of AKB's processes, every time Zhou Xiao appears, it means that AKB will change in the future, so this time, what is the change?

The last time Zhou Xiao took the stage, it was announced that the first students were moved to Group K and the second students were moved to Group A, could it be that this time, someone will be moved again? Everyone waited curiously and expectantly.

After Zhou Xiao walked on stage, he held the microphone and said: "There are two main things to announce today, the first thing is...... AKB48's new single will be released on October 25th! ”

"Bang Bang!" The otaku and the girls behind Zhou Xiao applauded, the release of the new single is indeed very happy.

"Another thing is that on October 25th...... AKB48 will hold our first concert at the Japan Youth Center on the same day that the third single will be released! ”

Compared with the previous news of the release of the new single, the news of this concert is the big news that completely ignites the entire theater! (To be continued......)
