Among the four students, it can be said that Ami Sato is the only girl Zhou Xiao cares about.

In fact, Zhou Xiao has seen her a long time ago, in AKB's previous performances, Zhou Xiao didn't dare to go over to talk to the girl, because there is always a lot of attention around him, if he doesn't pay attention to his behavior, it will form a big wave, so Zhou Xiao just watched from a distance, looking at this very thin and very small girl among the generally obese otaku, holding a glow stick a little uncomfortably, but never giving up support for the members, Zhou Xiao can see the kind of smile shining on the girl's face, She really likes AKB, which is why she participated in the AKB audition.

A total of eighteen girls began to train intensively after becoming the fourth student, because of the busy work, Zhou Xiao just chatted with the girls on the day of the final selection, after all the media left, and then for two or three weeks, Zhou Xiao didn't have the opportunity to observe these girls, he ran around on the set all day with AZX, in addition to filming, his recent work is more in administration, because his attention has been too great in recent times, and every exposure in front of the stage will cause a commotionIt's really troublesome.

After more than ten days passed after the selection of the fourth students, Zhou Xiao's busyness came to an end, and he finally saw the AKB girls again.

It's just that when he returned to the work of AKB, Zhou Xiao received very bad news.

Michiru Hoshino found Zhou Xiao privately and told him that he wanted to graduate.

Hoshino Orii's A1 performance unit "Christmas Night with You" can be called the A1 performance Divine Comedy, and now she and Mai Oshima also have a double unit in the A4 performance, so it can be said that although she can't get any resources for girls with strong potential in media selection, in terms of theater, AKB management should be said to be very good for her.

But...... Hoshino still insisted on leaving AKB, not only because she was very old for her, but also because she had recognized one thing in AKB for more than a year. That is, a girl like her who wants to become a singer-songwriter, and she wastes too much time dancing and performing every day, so even if she can't guarantee her life in the future, she still resolutely chooses to graduate.

Hoshino's graduation, Zhou Xiao didn't say anything, this is a very good girl, and it is also a rare girl with lyrics and composition talent in AKB, Hoshino is 22 years old this year, if it was in 2010. If she is only twenty-one or twelve years old, her talent for lyrics and music may help her get out of her own sky in AKB, but now, when AKB itself lacks sufficient resources, it is not appropriate to ask her to continue to persevere.

"Graduation is graduation, but you still want to continue to be an artist, right?" Zhou Xiao asked.

"Yes, I want to be a singer-songwriter." Hoshino said.

"Oh? Is there any work now? Zhou Xiao asked.

"I've written two songs......" Hoshino had a shy look on his face, if he could. She really didn't want to show the song to Zhou Xiao, it would give her the feeling of getting an axe in the class gate.

However, the girl herself also knows that showing her works to Zhou Xiao will get a rare opportunity.

Zhou Xiao took the two songs that Hoshino handed him and looked at them.

In his previous life, Hoshino released several large and small singles or albums. Zhou Xiao has also heard this girl's songs more or less, and now it is still a long time before this girl releases her first single, but in the girl's songs, Zhou Xiao has already heard the familiar taste of later generations.

Hoshino's Song ...... How to say it. In fact, the song is very good, the melody is very good, and the girl sings well. But if that's all it is, Hoshino's songs are the kind of songs that are very standard, full of "Japanese petty bourgeoisie" atmosphere, just like those low-budget Japanese movies, there will be so many people who like it, but it is not a route that the public will appreciate, so she, as an artist and singer-songwriter, may only barely satisfy her own life with the money she earns.

Zhou Xiao didn't think much about certain issues, and there were some things that he had already thought about before he met Hoshino.

"I can agree to your AKB graduation application, but I will also give you an AZX contract, but before signing the contract, I have to say it first, AZX can't give you any guarantees, it depends on your own efforts, we can find you a music teacher to continue to cultivate your musical literacy, if you can write good enough songs in the future, I don't mind giving you a chance, but what the business can do is only that, from zero to one is our job, from one to ten or even a hundred, a thousand, it is your job."

"Okay, Brother Zhou Xiao! I will definitely try my best! Hoshino said excitedly, AZX is now an upstart, and the better thing is that there are still very few people in AZX, compared with those super companies, AZX has few signed artists, and if she can sign a contract with such an upstart company, even if Zhou Xiao says that she won't give her too many opportunities, in the end she will definitely get more opportunities than starting from scratch in other companies.

In addition to Hoshino's graduation, the other members of AKB also have their own developments.

If you want to say who is the best developed AKB, which has been established for a year and a half now, it is surprising that this person is not the original member of AKB, but two girls who would not have joined AKB.

Kiriko Takemura was finally able to take a modeling course with Mariko Shinoda some time ago, Yona Kojima and others instead of acting courses, which allowed her talent to develop little by little, and then, after seeing the girl's understanding of fashion gradually grow, Zhou Xiao recommended her to a magazine that mainly focuses on junior high school girls, Zhou Xiao's recommendation is still quite effective, and the magazine accepted the girl after review, although it is still only the identity of a reader model, But with the fact that she has been on the magazine for three consecutive years, and it is said that in terms of reader surveys, her popularity is also quite good, which is enough for girls, Zhou Xiao estimates that she should soon be able to become the exclusive model of this magazine, after all, this magazine is only for junior high school girls, and many exclusive models can't be done for too long, at most, they can graduate from high school.

In addition to Kiriko Takemura, the development of Mita Yurika is also quite good, over 20 years old, a well-educated intellectual beauty, such Mita Yurika is not too popular in the team. At most, it's just a middle and upper journey, why is this happening? Zhou Xiao can also understand the thoughts of rice, most of AKB's meals are otaku, this creature is often a little inferior, but what about Mita Yurika? This is a complete image of the eldest lady, for otaku, it will be inferior in the face of such a girl, so she does not reflect a good popularity, but those who are more ordinary and simple, more like the girl next door have higher popularity.

The popularity of the team is not high, it does not mean that the individual is not high. According to her future achievements and today's Su zhì, Zhou Xiao recommended her to the day TV, as a weather forecaster for the noon ribbon program, this position, usually in most cases, will be a girl who will use the pure lady department, AKB was originally the first Kashiwagi Yuki to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with such an image, but now by chance, Mita Yurika has become the first "weather sister" in AKB.

The increase in the foreign affairs of Kiriko Takemura and Tomorika Mita has made the other members of AKB have mixed feelings.

The good news is that the external affairs of any member of the team will increase the attention of the team itself. The worry is that the popularity of these two girls will also make other girls feel threatened.

Especially the other girls who are more similar to these two girl characters.

The person Zhou Xiao said, the one who troubled Kiriko Takemura was Tomomi Itano, and the one who troubled Mita Yurika. It's Shiho Watanabe.

Itano Tomomi, in fact, Zhou Xiao is not particularly worried, she takes the route of singing and dancing, and in addition to beauties. Her sense of fashion and coldness are stronger, which Kiriko Takemura can't achieve, in Zhou Xiao's opinion. The two types seem to be similar, but in fact, there are certain differences.

With such a reason, Zhou Xiao quickly comforted Itano Tomomi. The little girl still trusts Zhou Xiao quite a lot, and she doesn't think that Zhou Xiao attaches too much importance to this Takemura Kiriko and doesn't pay attention to herself, after all, she is the person who was quietly poached by Zhou Xiao before she terminated the contract with the previous company.

Compared with Tomomi Itano's small troubles, Watanabe Shiho's troubles are greater.

To say from later generations, AKB's "Miss" member role must be Yuki Kashiwagi, but Watanabe Shiho is known as the "first generation of Miss" of the existence zài, the legend about Watanabe Shiho is that she is said to have opened a company as the president after graduating from AKB, coupled with its appearance, it is indeed very suitable for the image of the eldest lady, but now, in front of the image of Mita Yurika, the perfect score of the eldest lady, the image of Watanabe Shiho is not convincing, according to the feedback of the operation, she is likely to become the next graduate member after Hoshino.

In fact, in Zhou Xiao's history, Watanabe Shiho's graduation was also in the second half of 2007 at about the same time, but Zhou Xiao still has some regrets, originally in Zhou Xiao's thoughts, Watanabe Shiho, who has now moved to Group B, still has a good chance to cultivate his own food, because today's Group B does not have Yuki Kashiwagi, who will become popular on the route of the eldest lady in the future, but who knows that the sky is not as good as people, Yuki Kashiwagi did not come, but he came not only not inferior to Kashiwagi in popularity and ability, Even Mita Yurika, who may be more in line with the identity of the eldest lady, under the huge suppressive force, even if the two are not on the same team, Watanabe Shiho still feels great pressure, so he came up with the idea of quitting AKB.

What can Zhou Xiao do? He can only helplessly watch this qiē happen, he can't run to tell Watanabe Shiho that Mita Yurika won't be in the group for too long, seeing that the time is almost up, I'll let her graduate and get admitted to the female anchor, right? This kind of thing can only be in his heart forever, and it is impossible to tell anyone.

In addition to AKB's selection and trivia matters, AZX also has things to do with new members.

In 2007, AZX and AKB had a total of three drafts to be held, in addition to two auditions for the fourth and fifth students, AZX's own selection is also to be done, speaking of AZX's own selection, many people in the industry are not particularly optimistic about it now, because AZX's own selection has not seen any results so far.

Among the people selected from the AZX audition, only Naomi Watanabe, a female comedy artist, occasionally appears on TV, but the two main girls who stood out from the audition disappeared from people's eyes immediately after the audition, whether it was Kana Nishino in the first session or Rena Nengnian in the second session, AZX didn't seem to launch their plans immediately, but have been conducting secret training.

This makes the media's approach to AZX quite strange, because Zhou Xiao's AKB itself is a group that only trains for a month or two to let the girls debut on stage to sing and dance, and you have such a group, it seems that it is a guy who believes in putting the girls on stage to let the audience feel the growth. But such a guy hid the girls selected by AZX for training, and people couldn't help but wonder if the quality of these two girls was found to be not a good relationship after the selection.

Although there was a lot of speculation from the outside world, the selection began as usual in mid-2007, and it is a little surprising that although there was a lot of speculation and declining voices from the outside world, the number of nerves in the final selection of AZX still exceeded 20,000, which is the largest number of applicants in the history of AZX and AKB. No way, who let Zhou Xiao sell a game and make his AZX the most powerful company in the industry.

It's just a matter of doing too much in the selection, not to mention that Zhou Xiao's AZX selection is just a method for him to change his method to select good seedlings that he has seen in his previous life, for example, this year's selection is the same, from 20,000 people, Zhou Xiao still quickly found his most important target candidate.

This person is ...... Ai Hashimoto.

This is a girl who has had high hopes since her debut, and the roles she has taken on, in addition to the protagonist, are important supporting roles. The actors she works with are all quite famous actors in the industry, and her two most important performances should be in Takako Matsu's "Confession" and the two performances in the morning drama "Sea Girl".

After selecting Ai Hashimoto, Zhou Xiao also found a problem. That is the selection of this selection, the lineup of the morning drama "Sea Girl" in the future will come out, if you select the village frame next year, Zhou Xiao will be suspicious of the morning drama in the future. Because if Zhou Xiao really shoots this ama in the future, if all the actors choose AZX's own actors, there will definitely be considerable resistance from all parties. You must know that every time the filming of a morning drama is filmed, it is an exchange and dark war between various forces, and every company wants to insert its own people into it, and it is rare for a company to cover most of the important roles in the morning drama.

However, since Ai Hashimoto has come, Zhou Xiao naturally did not let go of this girl, among the new generation of actresses in Japan, Ai Hashimoto, Tsubasa Honda and Reina Nengnian are the three people who are very expected, Tsubasa Honda should have signed the company by now and did not come to Zhou Xiao's side, and the other two now have the opportunity to come to AZX, they are all girls with great potential, as long as they manage themselves well, don't get fat or learn from others, and calm down to hone their acting skills, both of them have a chance to succeed.

Among AZX's current artists, Maki Horikita, who is already a representative actor of the new generation, is naturally the one with the best development, as for Yui Arigaki, who is as famous as her, she is actually slightly inferior to Horikita in popularity and momentum, but in the next few years, Yui Aragaki's popularity and potential are not for fun, and her excellent sense of innocence gives her a chance to surpass Horikita in her future prestige.

In fact, above these two, there is another girl Miyazaki Aoi, but Miyazaki Aoi has gradually decreased now, and her desire in the entertainment industry is much smaller than these two, she seems to prefer to be Zhou Xiao's woman rather than a big actress, so strictly speaking, she has actually begun to fade out of the entertainment industry.

In addition to acting, there is also Zhou Xiao's power in the Japanese music scene, and the person with the best development should be the head of the biological unit.

Zhou Xiao basically did not interfere with the development of the three biological chiefs, and the three of them did not disappoint, although the sales of singles were not particularly high, but this is also normal, not to mention the biological chiefs these years, even Zhou Xiao released a single, unless he had a handshake or something, otherwise even he may not be able to get the results of millions at every turn before, and now it is not that good era.

Poor single sales do not necessarily mean that the singer can't make money, the various distribution letters of the biological chief, the income from commercial performances, and even the income from albums are quite good, although Cheng Dù, who has not yet received the invitation of red and white at the end of the year, is also a very optimistic group in the industry and has a very musical essence.

In addition to the head of the biological unit, AZX also has angelaki, a female singer, who has also gained quite good popularity after its launch, overall, although there are few people in AZX, but every artist launched can be said to have achieved quite good results, it is not too much to say that it is a one-man company, such a well-run company, and then inject a full billion dollars This is a huge amount of money that is difficult to spend all of it, Zhou Xiao even thinks that today's AZX, even if it does not rely on his various prophets in the future, can still launch new ones, a singer or actor I don't know at all.

However, this kind of thinking still has to be put aside first, AZX is not short of leading actresses now, let alone now, even ten years later, Reina Neng and Ai Hashimoto are still two new generation actors, AZX is not without a future, AZX just lacks some "old people" to sit in charge.
