Chapter 502: Mayu and Airi's Confusion

The list of newspapers did play some role, but on the whole it did not play a big role, and it turned out that although the Japanese meal was willing to spend money, it could be regarded as a battle-hardened, and few people would put up most of their net worth or invest astronomical money because of rice idols.

The sales of "Surprise of Tears" on the second day were finally fixed at 97oo, which will be regarded as "Card Nine" by the city, this number is good, but on the whole, the surprise is insufficient.

96oo Zhang, this number is also not high, but the key is that this number is about the same as yesterday's 97oo, a sales almost all depend on the idol group on the first day, and it can still maintain yesterday's sales on the third day, which is enough to prove that the effect caused by the previous report is quite good, this effect is actually not big, at most it is just to fill in the decline in sales between two days, but this is already good, Rifan is experienced in many things, and this kind of marketing method can not cause the frenzy of rice.

General selection table,MV shooting,Political shooting,Then the single list,Report,Most of the AKB members are worried about teenage girls when they face the general election,If it is AKB controlled by Yasusu Akimoto,Most of these girls may have carried it by themselves,But now Zhou Xiao is a producer,The closeness that has been operating since the beginning of AKB has played a role,Many girls come to chat with Zhou Xiao,Express their confusion and embarrassment。

Zhou Xiao also tried his best to persuade the girls, those dreams, success and other words are still quite useful to the girls.

Among these people, the most difficult thing for him to do is...... Mayu Airi.

The other members discussed it with Zhou Xiao when he arrived at the theater or emailed him, but these two girls went directly to Zhou Xiao's home!

Before that. First of all, let's talk about Zhou Xiao's home.

A few years ago, after his debut, the single hit and the opening of the company, Zhou Xiao finally bought a house of hundreds of square meters on the top floor of a luxury apartment in the downtown area, and then after years of accumulation, he already had a lot of money on him, and he liked the apartment very much, so he bought the entire three floors of the high-rise apartment building.

Zhou Xiao really likes that apartment for so many years, and the main reason is that the apartment is in the center of Tokyo, and for Japanese artists, many people's usual activity area is basically in that circle. Minato-ku, Shinjuku, Shibuya, Chuo...... Most of Japan's important industries are concentrated in these places, especially Minato-ku, Zhou Xiao's University Keio Yoshishu, and the five major private TV stations, Toshi-Azabu, Aoyama, and Odaiba. Roppongi ...... All of this is here.

The place where Zhou Xiao Apartment is located is a high-end apartment between Fujitai and Ri TV.

Owning a property in such a good place gives people the feeling that convenience and practicality overwhelm it, so if Zhou Xiao doesn't want to move out of here anyway. It was so comfortable to live in.

But...... After 2oo5, things have changed somewhat.

In 2oo5, AKB was founded.

Akihabara, where AKB is located, is in Taito Ward, in fact. Because he had long been thinking about the establishment of AKB, even the location of AZX was originally put in Taito District by Zhou Xiao.

From Taito City to Minato ...... It's a bit of a hassle.

If it's an office worker, commute every day. Naturally, I don't care about such a distance, but I can replace it with Zhou Xiao, who is "rich and burning", this distance ...... It's just troublesome. Therefore, he simply bought two more high-rise apartments near Akihabara, near the Ueno Zoo, in addition, Zhou Xiao also has some other large and small properties in various locations in Tokyo, which is not enough, he also spent money from the hands of Inaba Hiroshi, one of the two elders of BZ, to buy a high-end villa for 900 million yen, although this villa is not newly built, but the overall maintenance is not bad, and Inaba Hiroshi has not lived for a long time.

In addition, Zhou Xiao also bought a piece of land in Fukuoka, which is now building another villa, which will be Zhou Xiao's real "nest" in the future.

Among so many properties, the apartment near Akihabara and Ueno Zoo was used by Zhou Xiao to house Yuko Oshima and Mariko Shinoda, these two girls don't actually live here now, but Zhou Xiao does often meet them here.

In addition, the two girls, Mayou and Airi, also know this.

Mayu Watanabe and Airi Suzuki are not fools, over the years, Zhou Xiao and Yuko Ogura and Sister Miyazaki Aoi have seen the relationship clearly, and the little heads of the two girls may initially be a little incomprehensible why Brother Zhou Xiao can maintain a relationship with several women at the same time and even let these sisters maintain a good relationship with each other, but after a long time, they have slowly accepted this strange relationship, and then even got used to the reality that Brother Zhou Xiao has several women.

In this case, Zhou Xiao's brother established AKB48.

At the beginning, the two girls didn't have the idea of "Brother Zhou Xiao is not building a harem for himself", but for more than two years, they now Brother Zhou Xiao really likes AKB, this kind of liking is plausible, it seems to have a bit of male and female affection, because when facing the seduction of some girls in the team, Brother Zhou Xiao looks like a normal man, he is not indifferent to the girls, but most of the time, he is still very calm and refuses the seduction of the members.

The views of the two little girls gradually changed from "Brother Zhou Xiao is not building a harem" to "Brother Zhou Xiao seems to be serious", and finally to "Only the best members in AKB are worthy of Brother Zhou Xiao", and even recently there is a tendency to become "If you choose Brother Zhou Xiao, which member is more suitable"!

Then, before the two girls could choose, Yuko Oshima and Mariko Shinoda stood out.

What kind of people are Oshima and Shinoda of, there must be two of them among the smartest girls in the entire AKB, so after deciding to get close to Zhou Xiao, the first action they made was to win the favor of these two girls, and they both knew very well that these two girls had a very great influence on Zhou Xiao!

So the four of them quickly became very good friends, and the interaction between these four people is very important, because they are members of the first student, the second student and the third student respectively. These four people became good friends and communicated very well with the relationship between the entire AKB girls.

There is a slight problem.,That is, Shinoda is not a simple first-term student but the so-called "" who joined later".,So,Shinoda's position is also very delicate.,She's not only in the first-term students.,And not one of the real members of the first-term students.,Strictly speaking,This four-person group,And the real first-term small group.。 That is, Maeda Takahashi and others are still a little bit of a distance.

In Zhou Xiao's house in Akihabara, several girls have met, and Mayu and Airi are very sensible, and they have never mentioned this matter in front of Yuko Ogura and Aoi Miyazaki and other women.

On this day, Zhou Xiao slept in Akihabara's apartment as usual after finishing the AKB business, and he felt an itchy nose when he fell asleep, and after chasing it twice with his hands didn't work, he finally woke up.

Then, as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw two girls huddled in front of his bed, poking their noses with feathers they had somewhere.

Fourteen-year-old Mayou and fourteen-year-old Airi, two fairytale girls crowded in front of them. If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would be energetic in an instant, but Zhou Xiao is a little different, after so many years. He had long been accustomed to the storage of these two girls, so in the face of the harassment of the two girls, he just waved his hand to catch the two of them and then turned his body to continue sleeping, he was really tired and sleepy.

However, Airi Mayu does not seem to be satisfied. They seemed to have made up their minds to get Zhou Xiao up, even if he turned his head, the two girls didn't stop. Instead, he changed directions and continued to harass Zhou Xiao.

Left and right, Zhou Xiao finally woke up completely from being harassed.

"Okay, okay, I'm awake, let's talk about what's the matter!" Zhou Xiao gave up resistance and said at the same time.

"Brother Zhou Xiao, why are you holding a general election!" Mayou asked.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Xiao asked, a few days had passed since the report, and he was surprised why the two girls had only come to ask this question now.

"I don't want to win Airi, this feeling, it's so annoying!" Mayou said.

Zhou Xiao turned around and asked the other girl beside him, "You think so too?" ”

"Yes! I don't want to win either, and I don't want to lose! Because we are good friends, why do we have to distinguish between winners and losers? Airi asked.

"I don't want to win or lose, do you know how I understand this sentence?" Zhou Xiao asked.

After a pause, seeing the two girls looking at him with questioning eyes, Zhou Xiao replied: "I don't want to win or lose, in fact, it boils down to wanting to win."

The so-called not wanting to win is actually afraid that the friends around you will be hurt, and the so-called not wanting to lose is not wanting to lose to the friends around you. ”

"No...... We're not! The two girls wanted to deny it.

"Listen to me." Zhou Xiao continued: "People are selfish, because we are all simple individuals, thinking about ourselves or the people we care about is the most normal thing, and the same is true for the two of you, you don't want to win or lose, it's just a conflict between yourself and your friends."

But I think this kind of conflict is very good, and the most important thing for you is to establish a correct understanding of winning and losing.

What is a general election in your eyes? Zhou Xiao asked.

"General election?" The two girls looked at each other in surprise.

"In your eyes, the general election may be a competition, right? It is an event that you can win or lose. But...... Do you know what I thought about the operation with Mr. Yasushi Akimoto and Uncle Inoue when discussing this matter? The idea is...... It doesn't matter who wins or loses. ”

"Huh?"

"Surprised? Actually, it's very simple.,Modern entertainment industry,Most things have only one purpose, that is, to make money.,The general election seems to put forward a lot of slogans.,The opportunity for the members to decide the ranking of the songs.,The opportunity for the dinner to decide the position of the members.,The opportunity for the members in the back row.,But the real situation is...... The general election, in fact, is nothing more than an opportunity to make money.

Not only in the entertainment industry, but even in sports events, the real concern of operations is how to make money, not who wins.

So what you care about, in fact, it doesn't matter, as long as you enjoy the process, you will be very happy if you win, the first is also the eternal pursuit, but if you lose, the sky will not fall and the earth will not fall. The sun will still rise tomorrow, and that's it. Zhou Xiao said.

"In that case, the ranking insider ......," Mayou asked.

"Insider? No, no, no, we will never manipulate the outcome of the general election, it would be too much to lose. Zhou Xiao said.

"Really?" The girl asked.

"Of course it's true, the real thing that AKB wins is our popularity, not the general election, and anyone who stands in the first position has a script to operate for our operation." Zhou Xiao said.

"What if a person who is not popular at all becomes number one?" Airi asked.

"First of all, it's not popular at all. Or it is absolutely impossible for a member who is not pushed to get the first place, and even if she does, the first place must be pushed by her in some special way, such as having an oil king or simply being pushed out by her family.

These two possibilities, in fact, we will try our best to avoid when we collect jù, as long as it is not particularly excessive, we will not care, unless someone really wants to let someone who is not very popular affect the first position, we can intervene. This intervention is also to contact the other party first, rather than directly deleting the votes or the like. But you have to understand that our primary concern will always be how much impact this election will have, and how much attention it will have. How much popularity does AKB get and how much money does it make, as for who gets the first place in the end, this kind of thing is something that only the rice will care about. ”

"Shall we ...... What kind of attitude should we take to do this? Airi asked.

"It's okay to take it easy, and it's worth being happy to win. There's no need to be frustrated when you lose, it's even better to be happy with the person who won, and always remember. Winning now is not a win, because next year, the year after, the general election will be held, and those who win this year may not win next year, and those who lose this year may not lose next year.

The general election is not your battlefield, but your stage. Zhou Xiao said.

What Zhou Xiao said to the two girls of Mayou Airi would not be said to ordinary members, he really looked forward to these two girls like his sister, which is not comparable to other girls.

As for Yuko Oshima and Shinoda, they don't need Zhou Xiao to consol them, these two girls are different from Mayu Airi, the reason why Mayo Airi cares about is not about others but about each other's feelings, and only girls like them, who have been friends for many years, will take into account each other's feelings, and even fear the changes brought about by the general election.

Yuko Oshima and Shinoda really want to win.

Just like everyone else.

As the general election approached, the members were working hard to win the support of the fans, and the operation was in full swing with preliminary preparations and publicity. For the general election, not all the voices from the outside world agree, and many people feel that AKB is really risking the world's condemnation to do very dangerous things, because it will break the way female idols play so far, which is definitely something that most people don't want to see.

Although many people say it's not appropriate, but AKB still has to do what to do, they have seen the sweetness, the increase in sales is very obvious, and the social attention has also come up, and fools will give up, and those forces who don't like them, unless AKB does too much, it is impossible to stop them, in fact, for AKB, the normalization of the handshake ticket and handshake will in the single is obviously more excessive, because it directly makes an ordinary, An idol group that could be disbanded anytime and anywhere has become a female idol group that is on the rise in popularity and has been crowned the number one girl idol group in Japan in terms of sales and influence.

Looking at the sales volume, it is very clear that the biggest improvement for AKB must be the theater plate and not the usual plate, and the voting tickets for the general election are bound to the usual plate, and the general election is sold once a year.

In the midst of intensive preparations,Two weeks passed quickly.,In these two weeks,The middle table of the first general election has also come out.,Votes,Each member has grown,Rankings,In addition to the first and second place Maeda Yuko,The members behind have also had certain changes,For example, Mai Oshima,Crossed Takahashi Minami,Became the third,And Shinoda Mariko,Caught up from behind,Standing in the fifth place, there is still room to rise.,Zhou Xiao, who knows the votes and results of the vast majority of members, There is a lot of interest in who wins and loses between Shinoda and Mai Oshima, because this is the only thing he doesn't know about the "unpredictable prophet".

And Mayou and Airi two girls, they are only 5 votes short of the newspaper, this time the number of votes has increased to 7o votes, Mayou is still in the leading state, after chatting with Zhou Xiao, the two girls' views on this general election have finally become positive, they have figured out one thing, that is, no matter how they behave, Brother Zhou Xiao will still be the one who takes care of them and helps them, since this has not changed, then what they care about is only their own thoughts and each other's thoughts, So whether you win or lose, since both of them can be happy for themselves and each other from the bottom of their hearts, then what is there to worry about.

Then, on July 8, 2oo9, the day finally came, and AKB48's first general election in this time and space was finally about to begin. (To be continued!)
