Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
As soon as Zhou Xiao came out of the Tokyo airport, he was surrounded by many long guns and short cannons from the media, many of which were familiar to Zhou Xiao, obviously the faces of entertainment reporters, and many others that Zhou Xiao was not familiar with, and it was estimated that they were reporters from social news and current affairs news media.
It's September 15th, and 911, a major event that shakes the world, is still the focus of the media in the United States, but abroad, life still has to go on, and the attention to 911 can no longer affect people's normal lives.
The mV recording of the new single is obviously not so suitable in the United States, and the lazy Zhou Xiao is not ready to shoot another version, he asked the company's editors to remove the footage of the Twin Towers from the New York scene that has been filmed, and combine it with some daily activities behind the scenes, and put it into a barely a few minutes of mV footage, perfunctory into the single, and he himself has other things to do.
For Zhou Xiao, what is more important than shooting mV? When the United States was a little idle, twenty-four hours before returning home, Zhou Xiao didn't sleep at all, so as soon as he got on the plane, Zhou Xiao completely ignored the jet lag and fell asleep with his head covered, and after sleeping on the plane for more than ten hours, Zhou Xiao was full of energy when he got off the plane, because Japan was just in the early morning, so he immediately asked his agent to drive him to Saitama, because Mayu Watanabe's signing had been completed, and it was time to introduce her to another girl.
Picked up from Saitama to Mayu Watanabe, Zhou Xiao took the little girl to get into the car with her mother and walked towards a recording studio.
"Brother Zhou Xiao, where are we going?" Mayu Watanabe asked.
In fact, at the beginning, Mayou's mother wanted the little girl to call her uncle, but Zhou Xiao didn't like it.
"Call me brother, if I became an uncle when I was only nineteen years old, I would have grown old a little too fast." Zhou Xiaodao.
The car carrying the three of them finally arrived at the destination, and far away, Zhou Xiao saw another girl standing at the door of the recording studio.
Airi Suzuki, a little girl, takes vocal lessons here every Wednesday night and two days on weekends. She likes to sing very much, but she is always a little lonely by herself, so she is really looking forward to Brother Zhou Xiao bringing new classmates to her.
Zhou Xiao, who got out of the car, first introduced Mayu Watanabe's mother to Airi Suzuki's father, Hiroshi Suzuki, while Airi and Hiroshi looked at each other curiously, the difference was that Airi stood generously beside Hiroshi Suzuki, while Mahyu hid half of his body behind his mother.
When it comes to how to deal with this situation, Zhou Xiao is really a little overwhelmed. However, Mayu's mother didn't seem to be worried about this, she pulled Mayou out from behind her and pushed her towards Xiao Airi.
"It's your new friend, we'll be playing together in the future, quick, go over and say hello."
If it was seven or eight-year-old Seiko Matsuda who met Akina Nakamori, who was also about the same age. If Takuya Kimura, who was seven or eight years old, met Masaharu Fukuyama, who was three years older than him, maybe such an encounter would definitely be epic, but the encounter between Mayu Watanabe and Airi Suzuki may be far from the epic level, although these two girls have appeared as Japan's top idols in the history that Zhou Xiao has experienced, but whether it is popularity or fame, it is impossible to reach the Cheng dù of the previous four examples. Even under the manipulation of Zhou Xiao's plug-in, it is difficult to do. But their encounter is still what Zhou Xiao is happy to see, the two girls also have an unparalleled sense of idol, originally they parted ways because of different trajectories, and each became the leader of their own team, but they were destined to have no way to share the world, and now they are standing together, Zhou Xiao really expects to see it. When two girls like this are together, can they exert more energy and become the most commendable idol duo in the future? Or will it become a stumbling block for each other and become difficult to get along with in the future?
Even if the final result is not perfect, Zhou Xiao will not regret his choice at all.
Although her mother is pushing herself behind her, Mayou is still a little timid and afraid to go over, and now she is very introverted. But the little Airi opposite her was not such a girl, I saw her come over generously, grabbed Mayou and said, "You're finally here, I've been able to do it for a long time." It's fun to sing, but it's boring to sing alone. Brother Zhou Xiao, thank you! Of course, the last half of this sentence was said to Zhou Xiao.
After saying that, Xiao Aili pulled Mayou to the recording studio, where there were teachers waiting for them.
Judging from the news that Zhou Xiao knows ten years later, Airi Suzuki's singing level is much higher than that of Mayu Watanabe, which is difficult to deny, in fact, in the entire AKB48 team, there are only a handful of people who can say that Airi Suzuki. Little Airi is a lot more talented than Ma You, and the most important thing is that Little Airi is H! P, and Mayou has been an idol at 48g since he was 12 years old.
Yes, in H! P system, every artist is cultivated, and in 48g, it is undeniable that girls are idols in 48g, which is nothing more than a job.
With Zhou Xiao's knowing48g for the training of girls,When akB's music is done by sony,,Singing and dancing are still tested in the selection exam,But after that,The requirements gradually began to relax,To the watershed of the eighth phase,The requirements for singing and dancing are close to zero,It is said that Shimazaki Haruka only sang one sentence of "1etsgo" in the whole song during the audition,But the fat man of Akimoto Yasusu let her pass。
Of course, later Haruka Shimazaki really stood out, I have to say that she is really amazing, the girl is amazing, and Yasuya Akimoto is also amazing......
And after recruiting people in,48G training is not much,There used to be Xia Zhengong or something.,Practiced a lot of girls in the early stage quite well.,But then gradually there were only choreographers in the team and no dance teachers.,Choreographed the dance for you.,Do you want to learn? Practice it yourself. So the end result is that there will be retribution for the efforts of Amina Sato, who can dance the three groups A, K, and B, and the songs and dances performed in all theaters such as graduate students and sunflowers, and there are also those who are late for training and can only dance in one group and one position......
akB is like this, that h! What about the P-system? This point, from its alone has a special h! It can be seen from pkids that this kid is not a role that is used to replace the full members and fill the void in the theater like AKB graduate students, which Kids has experienced. It is a very professional artist's pre-debut training, just like Yuko Ogura and most artists such as Masami Nagasawa are doing, ...... In other words, this is the right path before the debut of an artist in the entertainment industry, like AKB, who barely trained for two or three months after the audition to make his theater debut, and many girls even only dance so many songs is the wrong way. It's heresy.
Since he wants to do the akB he has seen, then the problems and shortcomings that akB originally has, of course Zhou Xiao can avoid as much as possible, and the other people in the members, he naturally doesn't have the time and energy to influence, so let's start with the people he can influence.
It's going to be a difficult road. Train a dozen kids to H! p and its predecessor up-Frontagency have enough financial resources to support it, but a group like akB is completely copied h! The pattern of p is difficult.
h! There are two main selection methods for the idol singers of the P series, such as the members of the Good Morning Girl Group, one is to choose from the kids, such as Airi Suzuki who actually took this path in the history that Zhou Xiao has experienced. The other way is the audition meeting, which goes directly to the official members that kids can't reach, but it's also relatively difficult. The P line, all of them are momentary leaders in the idol industry, such as Maki Goto, such as Ai Takahashi, and many members of the AKB line have been proven to be losers on this road, such as Yona Kojima. Yuki Kashiwagi and Rino Tsuhara, as for those who are poor enough and persistent, such as Miori Ichikawa and Sumire Sato, Oba Mina...... Not even cannon fodder.
These two ways of adding people are used together, so that the level of new members is very, very high, and it can make members become instant combat power from the beginning of their debut, which is very eye-catching.
But what about AKB? The overall training time of the first three batches of students who debuted as full members was less than half a year, and the interval between the end of the selection and the debut time of the graduate students from the fourth to the fifteenth period was getting shorter and shorter. It can be said that the members of AKB are innate from the very beginning, and they are not comparable to H! pTrained or gifted members.
Therefore, I want such members to have room to improve and become excellent singers and performers. And it's not just the powerful idols of the idol group at the level of extracurricular activities, there is only one way, and that is that the training before the idol's debut continues until after the idol's debut, unless there are special circumstances, either the training in acting or singing and dancing will continue throughout their AKB career!
Even with uFa's financial resources, it only supports the training and learning of a dozen or dozens of girls, and Zhou Xiao wants to support hundreds or even hundreds at the same time? The goal is big and difficult, and Zhou Xiao didn't even think of any good way to achieve it, but it's always right to set a lofty goal first.
In short, those are all thoughts for the future, and now Zhou Xiao's thoughts are just to practice the singing level of Airi Suzuki and Mayu Watanabe.
Needless to say, Airi's singing skills are not as good as Airi in terms of talent, but at least the singing is barely out of tune, and it's okay to be stable, but the voice is relatively sharp, such a level is directly put into AKB five years later and spent eight years of idol career, her singing level has basically not increased, because she has not received much professional vocal training, and if Zhou Xiao starts training her from now on and this training lasts for five years, when Xiao Mayou debuts in O6, his singing skills are probably not comparable to Zhou Xiao's twelve-year-old little Mayou in history.
Maybe by that time, her popularity will still not catch up with Maeda Oshima's two "nvyou" type idols, but among the idol artists in the entire group who are singers, I'm afraid Airi will be able to compete with it, and Maeda Oshima is followed by a powerful version of Mayu Airi, and the picture will be so beautiful that people dare not look at it directly.
"Now you are relieved, right?" Zhou Xiao turned around and asked Watanabe Mayu's mother.
Xiao Mayou's family is just an ordinary working family, the day Zhou Xiao went to her house, although Mayou's mother was suspicious of Zhou Xiao personally finding this kind of thing, but she couldn't deny Zhou Xiao's attention to her daughter, a big star, a boss can personally go to an eight-year-old girl's home to lobby, I don't understand what advantages my daughter has that Zhou Xiao cares about so much, but also must be a little moved.
"Zhou Xiao, don't care too much, as a parent, no matter how much you care about your children, it's not too much." Hiroshi Suzuki said from the side.
"yes. Of course, I understand you and your aunt. Zhou Xiao said.
Successfully let the two perfect idols meet in the future, Zhou Xiao's sense of accomplishment is very high, although he didn't actually do anything, or rather, what he is doing now is just laying a foreshadowing, really. The future of the two girls still needs to be fought for by themselves.
"Mr. Zhou Xiao, that girl has arrived." Nakamaru called.
Which girl? is another girl that Zhou Xiao found after finding Mayu in Saitama, Reiko Kamimura in the Diamond Girl Project.
"Okay, I'll go over right away." Zhou Xiao said into the phone.
Hang up the broker. Zhou Xiao said to Suzuki Heng: "Then I will retreat first, there is still some work to be done." ”
"You go get busy, it's hard to be an artist, right?" Mayu Watanabe's mother asked.
"Actually, it's okay, there are times when I'm tired and when I'm relaxed, and when I'm tired, there's a lot of this!" Zhou Xiao put his hand on his chest, and clasped his thumb and index finger together. The palms of his hands were facing upwards, and at the same time, a somewhat despicable and obscene expression appeared on his face. This gesture is common in Japan, and it is a gesture about money, but this gesture is also very inferior, so don't use it indiscriminately on formal occasions or when facing people who are stricter.
"Hahahaha!" Hiroshi Suzuki and Mayou's mother were both laughed at by Zhou Xiao, and Zhou Xiao's usual treatment of people is still quite level. Maybe it can't be compared with those guys who have been shouting about the golden spoon since they were children, but at least it won't make people feel that this is a layman, such a sudden Zhou Xiao came to such a posture, and the effect is quite good.
The transformation of Reiko Kamimura is very successful, whether it is in the eyes of Zhou Xiao or everyone in the program team, the transformation effect of Reiko Kamimura this time is much better than the first transformation of Yoko Ikuno. It's not that Yoko Ikuno is not as good-looking as Reiko Kamimura, in fact. In reality, if you see the two of them, you will feel that Kamimura is still inferior to Yoko No, but there is still a big difference between reality and TV, Reiko Kamimura's small face. Her soft, rabbit-like delicacy, and the unworldly transparency are well displayed in front of the camera, especially when she first met before, her dirty appearance gives people a strong contrast and cuteness, and the sense of gap is so big that Zhou Xiao has a little tinnitus when he looks at Reiko Kamimura! (Huh?)
"Tomorrow is the recording of a big pop-up mob, right? Can the shoot be done today? "Reiko Kamimura's makeup actually started when Zhou Xiao took Xiao Mayou to find Airi, so when Zhou Xiao arrived at the place where she was filming makeup, he just recorded the appearance of him when he saw the girl, and the schedule was very tight, because Zhou Xiao's mV shooting encountered 911 and was delayed for two or three days, so a lot of work that originally needed to be done in a day could only be compressed into one or two days.
introduced Mayou and Airi to each other, and watched Reiko Kamimura's amazing makeup, Zhou Xiao rushed to the TV station with his agent, and for the rest of the day, they first had to edit out the video recorded by Reiko Kamimura, and then at night, they had to start filming the recording of the diamond girl's studio.
Before Zhou Xiao, the other people involved in the Diamond Girl project, the two Black Mainozz, Hiroya Yamazaki and the troupe, and the four people of Chunjun have all been recorded and edited, and when the recording of Zhou Xiao's side is embedded, the VTR work can be declared over.
Therefore, in order to be in a hurry, the program team put the program recording work very hard tonight, and after the editing was completed during the day, Zhou Xiao immediately followed everyone to record the program.
He couldn't help but be so busy, tomorrow was the recording of a big flash mob, this recording was very important, the total duration of the flash mob was only a few minutes, but the preparation ahead was quite long and difficult.
You have to take care of a qiē in order for the flash to go on normally and be beautifully collected into the camera footage, and after the program is recorded, the real ordeal of the program team has just begun, which is also the experience gained from the previous few flash mobs.
Because you have to take care of all kinds of details and people's expressions, and the real flash time is not long, you must prepare enough, and other programs will almost completely not prepare the number of cameras, and the things filmed in these cameras must also take care of the entire timeline when editing afterwards, and each frame is embedded in it, which can neither make people feel abrupt when cutting the shot, nor can the whole time be stretched too long to make people lose interest, It is also necessary to take care of every detail and not produce bugs on the timeline, it can be said that the real flash mob is edited for only a few minutes, which fully trains every editor in the entire program group.
"I just came back from the United States in the morning, I worked all day and all night today, and tomorrow I will do a flash mob during the day, and I will start editing immediately after the flash mob is over...... This is the rhythm that makes me tired and vomit blood......" Zhou Xiao thought with some emotion.
"Boss, it's Yuko Ogura!" Just when Zhou Xiao was emotional, Nakamaru, who was driving in front, suddenly said, Zhou Xiao looked up and saw that it wasn't anything, the girl she hadn't seen for a week was waiting outside the Japanese TV studio with her things, and after seeing her car, she waved her hand excitedly.
