Chapter 459: First Sight of KE
With the 10 million yen provided by Zhou Xiao, Kawakami and Kenichi Yamada happily tried their own idol group, Zhou Xiao seemed to be very casual and named this idol group as peach clover, but to be honest, he didn't expect this peach clover at all.
What really became popular in Zhou Xiao's history was the peach clover Z of the five people left after Akari Hayami graduated from the peach clover Z, this peach grass Z...... AKB's appearance is sometimes called a collection of ugly girls among Japanese artists, and the five people of Momokusa, even if they are placed in AKB, are probably only at the level of passers-by.
This group can be popular, not because of the girls' looks at all, it turns out that idols or something, looks are a very necessary factor, but ...... The reason why idols are really popular is often not because of their looks.
Like AKB, they rely on the explosion accumulated over the years and the successful explosion of the handshake meeting, while the peach grass relies on their sincerity and hard work, as well as a little bit of luck by chance.
Relatively speaking, AKB's popularity is more inevitable, because they have been at the bottom for many years, and those popularity accumulations finally formed their popularity, so AKB's popularity has not had a clear time point and inducement, since 2009, AKB began to gradually become popular, after a whole year in 2010, AKB became stronger, and finally in 2011, AKB finally reached the peak of popularity and ability.
And what about peach grass? There is a very obvious signal for the popularity of peach grass, that is, Xiaohong's jump.
Peach-colored Clover has released a song called "Go! Strange Thief Girl", in the dance of this song, the captain Momoda Natsunako has a very beautiful and amazing shrimp jump (also called the reverse bow jump), the specific action is that the girl jumps on the spot, folds the body in reverse in the air, stretches hard, and forms a movement where the feet can even touch the arms, which looks handsome and beautiful.
Is this a powerful move? Kindness...... Basically. As long as there is some gymnastics training, it should be able to do this movement more smoothly, which usually requires more difficulty on the balance beam.
But...... This is required by the level of "gymnastics girl", and it is really placed in ordinary people, there are still very few people who can do this, especially in terms of the level of idol girls, what is an idol? Most of the idols' stunts are shaking the hula hoop, splitting the lower legs, learning from Antonio Pigwood or the Ostrich Club, compared to these idols...... The little red shrimp jump of the peach grass has been bunkered, and there is wood.
After the song "Strange Thief Girl" came out, Momokusai called the captain's jump in this song "a jump that can update the history of idols". At that time, this sentence was probably more of praise and expectations, and there are probably very few people who will really come true when this sentence will come true, but fate is so tortuous and bizarre, a kind of Cheng dù said that this song, these five people, is indeed updating the history of Japanese idols.
The girl of five gradually became popular and was pushed to the position of the real opponent of AKB, which is relatively late at night compared to AKB. Seductive, full of feminine charm and different from sexy images, Momokusa mainly takes the healthy and clean almost transparent beautiful girl team route, this route ...... It can be said that from Sailor Moon to Good Morning Girl Group to Peach Clover is simply in the same vein. It can be said that it is the most orthodox idol route, and only idols like AKB don't do things like distinguishing members by color, and they can't do it. If you want to do it, you can't even have 256 colors......
Another huge difference from AKB is that the environment in which Peach Grass was born and raised is a very free, savage growth combination. The establishment of this group originated from Kawakami's company Xingchen gave him an opportunity to establish an idol group, and this opportunity ...... In Zhou Xiao's opinion, it's actually almost like a joke, what kind of huge company is Xingchen? This company has excellent artists like the sea, such an idol group established by a company, if you want to do it seriously, its posture may be bigger than Zhou Xiao's AKB, but what about the reality?
The reality is that what Kawakami is carrying,It's a few arguments that I'm afraid it's even difficult to get into AKB.,The girl who is also a loser in the Japanese entertainment industry.,Start with an open-air live that few people watch.,In Akihabara like all underground artists rent a theater to perform.,Compared with them,AKB is really a combination with a high start.,At least they have a dedicated theater from the beginning of their establishment.,In the current world,Zhou Xiao has established a costly but obvious training system for AKB., These are impossible to compare with peach grass.
The counterattack in this case is really quite powerful.
But they did.
Although the success of Peach Grass is highly respected by Zhou Xiao, but in the case that it is not Peach Grass Rice, and second, AKB has begun to be established, Zhou Xiao will definitely not put his attention on Peach Grass, not so much that the establishment of Peach Grass is counting on him to make money, it is better to say that Zhou Xiao is using the establishment of Peach Grass to achieve an effect of taking other people's paths and leaving others with no way out.
Zhou Xiao's real attention, of course, is still on SKE.
Because there are relatively few people applying for the audition, it is relatively easy for Zhou Xiao to screen, in addition, it is difficult to see potential non-AKB members participating in the selection of AKB in Tokyo, and in Nagoya, which is outside Tokyo, this situation is even more obvious, among the applications of about 3,000 people, there is no deposit that will make Zhou Xiao's eyes shine, among these girls, there are more of the kind of people who have almost never participated in any entertainment industry activities, and they just regard SKE as an after-school activity, and they can also contact stars by the way, or even a kind of work in Jennis, of course, is not a mistake, but it is unrealistic to expect that there is more potential in these girls than people think.
After completing the preliminary selection and informing the girls, in Zhou Xiao's eager waiting, the second review of SKE finally began.
Strictly speaking, there is nothing important about the second review, and the girls who can be asked to participate in the review by the operation side are basically very good, and it is very normal and easy to pass guò here.
In fact, this kind of review has been carried out six times in the AKB, and Zhou Xiao has long been used to it.
But...... This review made Zhou Xiao quite concerned about it, because ...... He's finally going to see Jurina Matsui.
Komatsui is also Matsui Jurina, who is Zhou Xiao's push second only to Yuko Oshima in the AKB Group, this is a girl who is full of vitality and still does not lose her happiness and cuteness while carrying a lot, her experience. Needless to say, her future hardships are needless to say.
Therefore, unlike the kind of push for Yuko Oshima, Zhou Xiao has a kind of love for Jurina like a father for his daughter, this feeling is undoubtedly quite subtle, and it also shows that idol rice is indeed a very disgusting creature, rice idol rice out of father-like feelings, not to mention anything else, just Jurina herself, if you hear this statement, you will first sneer. I'm a teenage girl like a flower, you're almost thirty years old disgusting fat house (last life), and you're embarrassed to say that your feelings for me are like your father's? Honestly, do we have anything in common?
These...... Of course, the idol house itself is also clear, but this is rice, and it's understandable that the rice talks to itself and feels good about itself.
In the previous life, the Japanese idol otaku was able to get in touch with many idols before they became popular. Whether it's AKB or Momocao, the distance between it and the idol house before it became popular was very close, and the SNH of later generations actually gathered such a group of idol houses.
It's not so much about falling in love with idols. It's better to say that these idol otaku are more in love with the fact that they can contact idols.
But like Zhou Xiao in the previous life and the vast majority of Chinese AKB rice, and most of the people who liked AKB or Momocao after becoming popular, most of these people liked the idol AKB itself, and liked their faces. Singing or working hard doesn't have a strict relationship with contacting or not reaching members.
That's why the so-called contact kitchen, those who first started at AKB and Momokusa always leave. Because they can't reach it, they can't get in touch with it before, and they can't reach it now, and it's understandable that they want to leave when they're lost.
Zhou Xiao, who is not in contact with cooking, finally has his own opportunity, and before meeting Zhu Lina, he has a lot of thoughts in his heart.
Will Loud Diamond still use her? It's good to enable, but if it does, she'll still face so many antis, and if she knows about it, will she accept it?
It seems that the situation at her home is not very good.,It's said to be a single-parent family.,And you can only be with your mother who is a tatami mat.,All kinds of furniture and supplies at home are also very old.,Before becoming an idol, it should be considered a child living at the bottom of Japanese society.,Such a child...... Wouldn't it be misunderstood to rush into funding her? But if she doesn't, will she still face difficulties in life after at least a year or two of joining the group?
All kinds of thoughts lingered in Zhou Xiao's mind, and it was not until the second audition was held in the theater in Nagoya, and it was finally stopped the moment Zhou Xiao saw Jurina.
An eleven-year-old girl, standing there doesn't seem to be too much nervousness and nervousness, from her expression and posture, Zhou Xiao can see shyness, handsomeness, as well as calmness and vitality, it is difficult to describe why a girl just stands there, why can you see this quality in her body.
Zhou Xiao glanced at Qiu Yuankang beside him, the middle-aged uncle with black-rimmed glasses was looking at Zhu Lina with interest.
What is Rough Stone? According to Zhou Xiao's experience in AKB for several years, the original stone is not how good this girl is at singing, acting, and dancing, but the so-called original stone in Akimoto Yasu's mouth is more to describe a girl's character or aura.
For example, Matsui Jurina's vitality and self-confidence, such as Tajima Meiru's innocence, this is the temperament that the original stone should have, if you want to act with a single word, Zhou Xiao feels that a rough stone girl, what she should have on her body should be the so-called...... It's refreshed. A girl who is full of vitality can be regarded as a rough stone.
"One of the big reasons why I can see those qualities in her is because I've known her for many years, how can Yasu Akimoto see this girl's potential and praise her as a once-in-a-decade rough stone?" In Zhou Xiao's heart, there was a very big question.
It can be said that Jurina is the "Rough Stone No. 1" hand-picked by Yasushi Akimoto, and there must be something in this girl that attracts him to get such an evaluation.
"How is she?" Zhou Xiao asked quietly.
"It's not bad, it's not bad to have this aura at this age." Qiu Yuankang glanced at Zhou Xiao with some surprise and replied.
Why was Yasu Akimoto surprised?
From the selection of AKB's first phase students to the present, Zhou Xiao and Qiu Yuankang have also cooperated many times, and after so many cooperations, the two have cultivated a considerable tacit understanding, which makes them sometimes not need to speak. By acting, we can understand each other's meaning.
For example, Zhou Xiao asked this sentence just now, and Qiu Yuankang understood what he meant.
Zhou Xiao's meaning is very simple, I am quite optimistic about this girl, I think she has great potential.
In fact, in the cooperation between Zhou Xiao and Yasu Akimoto, there are many girls like this who were asked in the second audition, and what Yasu Akimoto remembers, there are Maeda, Oshima, and even Takashiro Aki, the only qualified person in the sixth term. Zhou Xiao asked.
Now, he asked the phrase again, when the girl had just come to everyone.
When they met for the first time, how did Yasu Akimoto feel about the girl named Jurina Matsui in front of him?
To be honest, he doesn't feel anything for the time being, many people will attack Yasushi Akimoto's vision of people, and question whether the members of the so-called original stone and strong push have real talent and learning, but after so many years in the entertainment industry, it turns out that Yasushi Akimoto still has two brushes. In a situation like this, even if Zhou Xiao obviously put on a look that he was optimistic about the girl in front of him, Qiu Yuanyasu's answer was still quite cautious: "I can't see what kind of potential he can achieve, it should still be very good." But...... I still don't dare to say it. Akimoto said.
Zhou Xiao didn't expect that when he saw Xiao Zhu Rina for the first time, Qiu Yuankang had such a cautious attitude.
The little girl in front of him was only 11 years old, and his appearance was unprecedentedly green for Zhou Xiao. The face that is almost completely without makeup has a common amateur, somewhat gray complexion, and the expression does not show the freedom and unrestrainedness of the little ancestors of later generations. Overall, if it weren't for the existing ideas, Zhou Xiao felt that he would never be able to associate this person with the idol who was shining on the stage.
"Idols or something, they can really change a person completely." Zhou Xiao, who was so emotional, finally began to ask questions.
"Jurina Matsui, where do you live now?" Zhou Xiao asked.
"I now live in Kasugai City with my mother." Jurina said.
"Kasugai City?" Zhou Xiao asked a little strangely.
"It's near Nagoya, and a lot of people who work in Nagoya live there, and it's kind of similar to Nagoya's satellite towns." A local Nagoya staff member on the side said.
Zhou Xiao nodded and continued to ask: "If you join SKE, you will probably have to travel frequently between Tokyo and Nagoya in the future, no problem, right?" ”
"Yes, no problem." The girl said.
At this point, Zhou Xiao actually wants to continue asking, from 2000 to the present, he has not seen this girl for eight years, and now that he finally meets him at the age of 11, Zhou Xiao can't wait to sign a contract with her immediately.
But...... After doing this work for a long time, he has gradually begun to get used to suppressing his personal feelings, so Zhou Xiao didn't show anything unusual but casually asked two more words and let her go down, she didn't sign a potential girl first like she did when she was in AKB, and now the SKE audition is held in Nagoya, after staying away from Tokyo, this selection is just a small selection that no one cares about, you know, like horipro, When firms like Xingchen want to select, there are more than 30,000 or even more than 40,000 people to select, and the selection of about 3,000 people in the first phase of SKE is simply a large collection of defective products in the eyes of large firms, and there is no need to care about it at all.
After Jurina went out, the second audition continued, and I met Sayuki Mori and Reina Matsui.
Sen Saxue is a round-faced girl who looks a bit like a rabbit, she looks very ordinary, Zhou Xiao estimates that in this life, she should not be in KE for a long time.
As for Reina Matsui, she looks really overly ordinary as an amateur, and now her only weapon is probably to be thin, but it's a pity that Ami Sato and Nami Okujin are also very thin when they just entered AKB, or when they were amateurs, and no one can predict that these two will become obese in the future, just as no one will predict what kind of root and hard work is contained in Reina's bean sprouts-like body, and it will be necessary to see this girl's almost crazy efforts in the future to truly become her captive.
Shortly after the two girls, another girl walked in.
As soon as this girl came in, Zhou Xiao felt the eyes of several judges around her light up.
Because she is really cute, her big eyes are smart and there is no lack of youthfulness, her face is perfect and her smile is also very cute.
Kumi Yagami came in.
The 14-year-old girl is one of the best in this SKE selection in terms of talent, she didn't make SKE's ACE, it's not that she's not good enough, it's really W Matsui's talent is also too strong, Jurina's rough stone breath is clearly visible, and Reina has inhuman tenacity and hard work, if Yagami Kumi can have Jurina's character or Reina's perseverance, it's not too much, as long as there is one of the two people, I believe she has a great possibility of becoming SKE's ACE.
It's a pity that she can only do the No. 3 of SKE at most in her life, but now, in Zhou Xiao's thoughts, she has quietly placed a part-time position for her, so I don't know if this perseverance can play an effect on her. (To be continued......)
