On July 1, 2008, at the AKB performance, Zhou Xiao announced the news that SKE48 would be established.

The news...... It's good news for AKB rice, but for those outside of rice, there's hardly anything to look at.

If it's AKB after the fire, the rice people may be very excited, because there will be fresh young girls to watch it, but most of the AKB meals are in the Tokyo area now, and Nagoya is not particularly far from Tokyo, but even so, there are still not too many AKB meals here, or in other words, most of the AKB meals are only active in the Tokyo area, and they have not thought of it outside the Tokyo area.

As for Nagoya's local idol rice and AKB rice, there are not many of them, and even fewer people pay attention to this news, Japan is not China, there are always centers and hot spots in each region, and there is only one Tokyo in the center and hot spot in Japan, compared to Tokyo, even if there is another idol group in Osaka at this time, it will not have a lot of attention.

However, this news is not completely unattended, compared with the rice and ordinary people, the attention and impact of industry insiders on this matter is significantly greater.

Zhou Xiao's AKB has been established for two and a half years, and in general, this is a loss of money for two and a half years, but it has gradually begun to move in a good direction, which makes people look forward to the future combination. Girl group, everyone sees her future potential, especially after connecting with Akihabara, with otaku, and with the second dimension, etc., but ...... How a girl group becomes popular needs more thought, especially the AKB in Zhou Xiao's hand. Let's not talk about whether it can be popular, it is this model, which is exaggerated and almost unacceptable in the eyes of many companies.

Why? It's very simple, that's a big group of dozens of people! And dozens of women! To run an entertainment company, the contracted actors and singers in the company are intriguing with each other, and the tilt and distribution of resources are already a headache, not to mention a combination like Zhou Xiao.

In fact, the industry still has affirmation of Zhou Xiao, not to mention anything else, just saying that he has made a combination of more than 40 people prosperous, at least the current investment will not be too much of a loss, which is already quite good. But that's not enough, a group like this must become popular, otherwise, a group like AKB will sooner or later be dragged down by its huge and bloated structure.

These people don't know that in the future, the AKB will be a huge group of nearly 300 people, and even counting the overseas group, which is approaching 400 people.

is such a bloated group in the eyes of industry insiders, and it is necessary to open a group? And in a place like Nagoya?

Everyone's first instinct is. Zhou Xiao, this guy...... You're so rich...... Rich ...... There's nowhere to spend it.

It's not like there's nowhere to spend it, otherwise would any guy put their money on the loss-making goods like AKB? And it has lasted for more than two years, and I have been investing money unswervingly.

The idea of Zhou Xiaokai's branch in the industry is mainly ridiculed, and there are some differences between Zhou Xiaokai's branch and Qiu Yuankang's branch in his previous life. Akimoto Yasu opened a branch, that was because he relied on the branch group to earn a franchise fee from Jingle, and he also relied on this franchise fee. He was able to persevere in the most difficult years of termination and finally live to the day when AKB succeeded.

And what about Zhou Xiao here? Yasushi Akimoto's SKE in his previous life, that was Kyoraku's SKE. At the same time, Zhou Xiao estimated that from the beginning of the establishment of SKE, Matsui Jurina was pushed out to become the center, maybe there was also a reason for the pressure on Jingle, Jingle hoped that SKE could enter people's eyes faster, so he pushed Matsui Jurina to the front and attracted enough attention for SKE for a long time.

In this direction, the girl Jurina Matsui ...... It's not easy.

She was only 11 years old when she first came out, and the 11-year-old girl became the center of the first single after AKB changed the music company, leading AKB Jedi to fight back, behind her, it was the game between AKS and Jingle, and in March 12, this girl was also AKB, so to speak, her AKB career, took on too many team responsibilities and futures.

Zhou Xiao even felt that Jurina in her previous life should be treated well by AKB, because when she first debuted, an 11-year-old girl took on too many things.

In the previous life, he cooperated with Jingle and AKS, but in this life, Zhou Xiao invested independently, the former was Yasu Akimoto who found the investment, and the latter was Zhou Xiao who continued to be the main leader, so the evaluation of the two sides is very different in this regard.

In the midst of distrust and suspicion from the outside world, the Nagoya SKE theater was completed.

Zhou Xiao and AKB's official website blogs both published the news of the completion of the SKE theater and published a large number of theater photos, and outside the theater, the official store where SKE and AKB merged also started to open in advance before it began to recruit members.

As an idol group that has been working hard for more than two years, but its overall popularity has not been up or down, with the Tokyo area as its main activity area, AKB's popularity in Nagoya does not allow the official store to get enough popularity before the group starts to recruit money, even if Zhou Xiao personally stands for the official store, he can't always spend time on such a thing as the opening of the official store.

In response to this, the staff of AKB asked if AKB could take the first step to perform on a business trip and stand on the stage of the Nagoya Theater before the SK, and Zhou Xiao finally denied this proposal after thinking about it carefully, Nagoya Theater will be the exclusive theater of SK, and of course both AKB and NMB may stand on the stage of the SKE Theater in the future, but at least for the first theater performance, Zhou Xiao still hopes that it belongs to the SKE.

A few days after the SKE announcement, AKB's official announcement of the SKE enrollment rules was revealed.

SKY will be an idol group rooted in Nagoya, so in terms of recruitment, of course, the official will not forget about the promotion and advertising in Nagoya, and the most prime-time advertisement of the local radio station in Nagoya was bought by AZX. In addition, there are also large advertisements for AZX in places such as the station with the most people in Nagoya.

Professional theater, large-scale commercials, and even Zhou Xiao went to Nagoya's radio and television station to participate in two episodes of TV programs, compared with the establishment of SKE in the previous life, today's SKE, which has been promoted before its establishment, has almost made the whole of Nagoya known.

Nagoya is extremely excited about Zhou Xiao's arrival, and with his level, there is no TV station in Japan that can take the initiative to invite him to do a show. Usually Zhou Xiao took the initiative to apply for being on TV, and as far as the TV station is concerned, as long as it is not a particularly important situation, otherwise Zhou Xiao will never be rejected.

In addition, there is a necessary condition on these premises, that is, the TV stations that Zhou Xiao usually wants to show on the program will only be the five major private or NHK TV stations, as for the TV stations in various regions of Japan, let alone now. Even when Zhou Xiao was filming "The Undertaker", he didn't show even a single face on the TV station in Yamagata County for several months of filming in Yamagata County, and I made movies in you just for the sake of movies.

But this time. Zhou Xiao actually took the initiative to say that he wanted to come to Nagoya's show! The TV station was so excited that they wanted to pick him up in a stretch limousine!

Although the car is lengthened or something, Zhou Xiao doesn't care at all.

There is nothing to say about the recording of the program on the TV station, Zhou Xiaolai is already very face-saving when he comes to record the program, and it is impossible to plan any project by himself. So the TV station just arranged an interview in a variety show, of course, with Zhou Xiao's ability. It's okay to make the whole interview interesting, and he's definitely going to work hard to promote AKB and future SKE during the interview, because that's what he's here for.

After the recording of the program ended, Zhou Xiao directly met with the director of Nagoya TV.

"If AZX wants to produce an exclusive program in Nagoya, do I need any qualifications?" Zhou Xiao asked while chatting with the director.

"As far as our TV station is concerned, of course, Mr. Zhou Xiao is very welcome to come to do the show, but ...... If it's SKE...... With all due respect, the newly established idol group ...... "This director is not without discipline, as long as Zhou Xiao's request is all nodded and agreed without thinking, for example, the director is very cautious about opening an exclusive program for SKE."

His prudence is justified, artists who have just debuted, especially female artists, are usually difficult to express themselves in front of the camera lens, a clear example is a certain show of HKT48.

The show that focuses on HKT going out, hosted by Rino Fingerhara and Teru Goto, invited the two HKT Lori Nako Yabuki and Miku Tanaka to the studio at the end of 2013, and as a result, the two girls were stupid and could barely say anything nutritious to the camera.

It's 2014.,It's the same show.,Two tense explosions last year.,Lori, who can't do anything but giggle, can already face the camera very easily.,The obvious difference with them is that they are just starting to be on TV like a year ago.,This Lori is like Nako Miku a year ago.,Almost can't say a complete sentence in front of the camera.。

It can be expected that if the group starts the show as soon as it is established, SKE48 will inevitably encounter this kind of problem, and in the entire SKE48 team, Zhou Xiao estimates that there will be no more than five people who can put the character in front of the camera just after their debut.

It's just that since he mentioned it to the TV station, Zhou Xiao must have his own ideas.

"I've already thought about this aspect, the establishment of SKE, the initial show will definitely not let them directly take the lead, so I will invite a group of funny artists plus two to three people from AKB to form an MC lineup, with this lineup to complete the filming of the entire show, and AKB in addition to these two or three people will also appear from time to time." Zhou Xiao said.

"Oh? If that's the case, of course, it's fine, but it's just ...... investment," the TV director hesitated.

His fears were not unreasonable.

Investment is a very important reason, Nagoya local TV variety shows will not be watched by too many viewers, and the population of the entire Aichi Prefecture is only about 7.5 million, what is the concept of this number? Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu, China, had a resident population of 8.2 million in 2013, which means that Aichi is equal to a province relative to China. And it's the third largest prefecture in Japan in terms of development and GDP, and its population is just that, such a small population, even if it gets 10% of the ratings, it will only be watched by 700,000 people at most, and if the variety show is broadcast in the Kanto area covered by the five major TV stations, there are more than 50 million people in this Kanto area alone, even if it is only 2% of the ratings, the number of viewers will completely exceed 10% of the audience in Aichi Prefecture.

That's the disadvantage of a small country like Japan. In the development of the country, most of the resources will eventually be returned to one place, unlike China, which has multiple regional centers such as the imperial capital, the magic capital, the demon capital, and the Shu capital.

That's why idol groups like HKT, which were originally based in Kyushu and Fukuoka, still eat around Tokyo. One of the reasons for the Kanto locals is not that they are not good enough in Fukuoka, but that Tokyo and its surroundings are so huge......

In addition, there are also issues such as travel expenses between Tokyo and Nagoya for members of the AKB and other countries, which are very realistic.

"It's okay! Money is not an issue! Zhou Xiao didn't seem to care about this.

"Since it's a regional combination. First of all, of course, we should pay attention to the regional audience, and in addition, although the program is produced in Nagoya, it will be timely. We can put the program on the Internet for distribution! In this way, viewers from other regions who want to watch the show can also see it. Zhou Xiao said.

"You're right, if that's the case, then it's fine." Said someone from the TV station.

"Thank you so much. Of course, we don't want prime-time programs, late-night files are fine, of course, in terms of time, we have to worry a lot about it, arrange a good time for us, if the program can really be finalized, the first episode of the program, I will also appear to build momentum. Zhou Xiao said.

Nagoya's preparations are almost here, although the exclusive program has not yet been completely finalized, but Zhou Xiao knows that there is basically no problem with this matter, a late-night variety show in a small city with millions of people, Zhou Xiao estimates that the cost of producing a quarterly program is estimated to be higher than the cost of buying out the program time.

As for the fixed team of the show, Zhou Xiao has long had his own ideas in his heart.

First of all, there are two girls who have immigrated. Kazuko Qin Zuo and Ai Li Furukawa are two girls with very distinct personalities in SKE, among which Kazuko Qin Zuo's popularity is a legend, her special character, even if you look at the entire history of Japanese idols, is very rare, such a she, in fact, has the potential to become popular and become a very good comprehensive artist.

Of course, she also has weaknesses, the two most obvious weaknesses, one is Yan, the other is age, Yan's words are helpless, many times she can only make up for it with her own efforts, as for age, if she is an idol, of course her age is an older idol, but if she is a comprehensive artist, the age of 20 has just begun, and she has a lot of time to become popular.

Outside of Qin Zuo and Zi, Furukawa Ai Li is not a girl with a particularly distinct personality, but what Zhou Xiao cares about is that Furukawa Ai Li is very good in terms of appearance, and she is also an idea and capable, why hasn't SKE and AKB been shaping her into an MC in terms of operation? MC, shot, pretending to be stupid, complaining, Zhou Xiao thinks that this should be the route that Furukawa loves Li is suitable for!

So, this show is an attempt by Zhou Xiao, Qin Zuo and Zi will not occupy the main position on this show of SKE, she is a character who is easier to become famous and needs more exposure, so although she will move to SKE in the future, Zhou Xiao will still focus on Qin Zuo and Zi in Tokyo and on the appearance of the five major TV stations.

And Furukawa loves Li differently, Zhou Xiao hopes that Furukawa can experience more learning and challenges, and finally become an MC hand that is not weaker than Minami Minegishi and others, and in the future KE will become the same as AKB Takahashi Minami, in her previous life, she was limited to age and timing and did not have this opportunity, Zhou Xiao, who had great expectations for her in this life, decided to use this variety show to sharpen her first to see if she could withstand this test.

As for the comedian who cooperates with Furukawa Ai Lee, Zhou Xiao already has a candidate in his heart, his goal is a comedian group called SPEEDWAGON, which is a funny group that was born in Aichi Prefecture, and the popularity of this group is also quite good, and the cooperation between this group and AKB Group is actually very good, in their previous life, they have long been the regular stars of AKB's title show "Weekly AKB", no matter what aspect, they are the best partners to work with.

The only problem is that they are quite popular and recognized now, so if you really invite them to star...... It's just a little bit more expensive. (To be continued......)

PS: I just found out that there is another cute master.,It's been 20 days since this "farewell" became a cute master...... Shame shame...... But the cute master plus has to wait...... Recent status...... Well...... It's hard enough to be able to guarantee a normal update, eh......
