Chapter 347: Signing Nana Ozaki
"On the 13th, please enter the interview on the 13th." AKZ staff shouted at the door.
Girl No. 13, who had already sat at the door, immediately stood up, and when she reached the door, she let out a sigh of relief before pushing open the door and walking in.
The interview for the second selection was very short and fast, and the 13th only walked in less than two minutes after entering, and there was not much joy or sadness on her face, because the whole process was not particularly long.
Zhou Xiao in the interview wanted to shake his head while looking at this group of girls, in fact, the absolute value of Japanese girls' appearance may not be better than that of China, not to mention that there are so many people in China, and the probability of giving birth to beauties is significantly higher, such as more than 200 people selected for this first interview, if Zhou Xiao doesn't know that among them can give birth to very beautiful girls in the future, maybe they will be disappointed in their own eyes, not to mention those girls whose quality is not high, even the big beauties who will inevitably become famous and beautiful in the future, Now it looks ordinary.
Especially Yona Kojima and Mariko Shinohada, these two can be regarded as the most beautiful of the AKB God Seven, Yona Kojima is the kind of fleshy girl that men dream of, her cheeks are Q and springy but there is no double chin, her breasts are big and her hips are cocked but there is no small belly, her arms are soft but not shaken, her abdomen is smooth but not scary muscles, her thighs are soft and delicate but her knees are not fat, her calves look round but her ankles are slim, and her skin is smooth and firm, fair and moist......
It's a pity that these are not obvious to the current Kojima Yangna, what Zhou Xiao saw was a girl with a slightly bloated figure and a self-righteous familiarity with the entertainment industry in her eyes, but in fact, she has been living on the edge of zài.
In addition to her, the other Mariko Shinoda is also similar, as a native of Fukuoka, the now nineteen-year-old Shinoda should have come to Tokyo after graduating from high school. From the age of seventeen to nineteen, for about two years, few people knew what she was doing, and some gossip tabloids reported that she seemed to have been a wine escort, but this statement was ...... Zhou Xiao is neutral and has a certain negative attitude at the same time, if Shinoda has a special relationship with the AKS president in Zhou Xiao's history, Zhou Xiao still believes a little, which is speculated from the clues before and after.
But to say that she is a wine escort, this reason is a little impossible to speculate. On the contrary, there is evidence against this speculation, and one of them is the choice of Shinoda after the first term of the student was defeated. After losing the election, Shinoda didn't go to continue working or doing his own thing, but listened to the advice and stayed with others to work as a waiter at AKB Cafe!
You know, idols are this kind of zài, and when they are not popular, they are synonymous with poverty, and when idols became popular after 2010, they were all over the world in Tokyo. Those who are not popular usually earn only 20,000 or 30,000 yen a month! Of course, this money can't make it possible for an adult to survive in a city like Tokyo, so if such an idol doesn't work part-time, it's definitely the type that has been fostered.
The idols performing in the theater are like this, and they can only sell coffee after losing the competition outside the theater. You can imagine how low his income was, and during that time, Shinoda was no different from a miscellaneous worker, except for working in a café, and distributing flyers in the Don Quixote Building......
To know. The so-called from thrift to luxury is easy to go from luxury to thrift, if Shinoda really feels the world of the wine girl and lets her be an idol after that, maybe she can endure it hard because of the bright future. But now that she has failed to be an idol, can she still calm down and be a waitress with a meager income outside the theater? If she can really do it, then Zhou Xiao may only have two words of admiration to say.
Therefore, Zhou Xiao will be curious about whether she has anything to do with the president of AKS, because by that time, Shinoda has already been exposed to the world of flowers in the entertainment industry, even if it is a little degenerate, it is normal for everyone to be human, but can you be a wine girl and then go to work as a café waiter? Either it's a fake, or it's ...... Shinoda is the kind of guy who has superhuman roots!
Shinoda now also looks very ordinary. Very straight semi-long hair, fleshy face, without the charm of the short-haired ball-faced face of later generations, which is unforgettable at a glance, seems to be an ordinary girl who works hard in Tokyo.
"What were you doing before?" Zhou Xiao asked casually, in his past life and this life, he can finally know what Shinoda did in the past two years, as for whether she will lie? Zhou Xiao may not be able to see this, but it is not easy for her to deceive a group of people, including Qiu Yuanyasu.
"Before? I've done some odd jobs, but I've never been exposed to this kind of ...... of selection" Mariko looked very nervous, and her appearance was completely at the level of an amateur-level selector, such a level, coupled with her not very good singing and dancing, it was too natural to be eliminated.
But Zhou Xiao was not disappointed, Shinoda made him feel a lot more relaxed, because it proved that Shinoda is still a relatively simple girl at least now, at least now, his good impression of Shinoda will not be shattered, as for whether she will be raised by the president of AKS in the future? Of course, there won't be this kind of problem anymore, because even AKS no longer exists, to use a joke, in addition to Zhou Xiao, I am afraid that only Uncle Inoue and Yasu Akimoto will be able to support her in the future......
After asking a few more questions, Zhou Xiao let Shinoda leave the room, in fact, he wanted to sign all the members of the AKB now, but he couldn't do that, so he could only continue to pretend to be the first time he saw these people, and ask questions that sometimes he might have already known the answers.
"How was that?" Zhou Xiao asked Qiu Yuankang beside him.
"It's very good, the appearance belongs to the most outstanding category, it depends on the table at the time of the final review." Akimoto said. The implication is that Shinoda must enter the final selection, for the selection of AKB, Akimoto Yasu's words have a considerable role in the selection, and the vast majority of candidates are actually supplemented by Zhou Xiao after Akimoto Yasu's decision, which brings a feeling that Zhou Xiao cares about Akimoto Yasu's meaning and cares about other people's thoughts, and no one knows at all, Zhou Xiao has long known Akimoto Yasu's general choice before letting him choose people so freely.
The second screening took place over a two-day period, with the first day being a televised interview from all over Japan, and the second day being an interview in Tokyo, where the last person to be interviewed was a person who had previously participated in the AZX audition and was eliminated. Nana Ozaki, who came to participate in the audition again this time.
Everyone is not optimistic about Nana Ozaki because she is 23 years old.
23 years old is still a delicate flower in life, even if it is placed in the circle of photo artists, it is a very good grade, but for the profession of idols, this age is too big.
Zhou Xiao estimated that Nana Ozaki in her previous life participated in the selection of AKB without saying anything, but because of her age, she was eliminated in the first round, so she did not have this experience in her various materials, because it would be embarrassing to say it. Originally, Zhou Xiao was selected for AKB in this life. Her future will not be too good, if it weren't for Zhou Xiao's insistence, everyone, including Qiu Yuanyasu, would not let her pass the first review.
The reason why Zhou Xiao let her pass the guò review is actually just her own bad taste, as a man, I'm afraid no one will dislike Nana Ozaki, but, a little ironically, she likes Nana Ozaki. It's different from what I like most of the other women.
Like Zhou Xiao's love and respect for Sakai Izumi's sister, his love for Yuko Ogura and Aoi Miyazaki, and his longing for AKB, these likes are all very normal. But for Ozaki Nana, I'm afraid that the majority of men's liking is the kind of mistress, with a sense of taboo, and is only willing to put her on the choice of cheating. As for falling in love? Men will dream more of talking to super beautiful women like big actresses......
This kind of liking is very inferior, and it can even be said to be very despicable and shameless, but people are like this sometimes. Regarding this matter, even if someone scolds Zhou Xiao for being despicable, Zhou Xiao will admit: "That's right, I'm despicable, even if I'm not married at all, I think a girl like Nana Ozaki is very suitable to be a mistress!" ”
It's hurtful for Nana Ozaki, but people are always selfish, aren't they?
Ozaki Nana was the last to start the review interview, and she participated in the AZX audition earlier this year, although she was not able to sign a contract with AZX at that time, Zhou Xiao seemed to be very fond of her, not only said a few more words, but also personally invited her to participate in the AKB audition, which is a great hope for Ozaki Nana.
Strictly speaking, Zhou Xiao and Ozaki Nana are actually the same age, but the two of the same age have completely different statuses in the entertainment industry now, the 23-year-old Ozaki Nana is mixed in the bottom of the entertainment industry and has never won the opportunity to debut, while Zhou Xiao has debuted for five years and has nowhere to work, and he is the most watched young man in Japan in recent years.
The huge status gap made Ozaki Nana have the same respect for Zhou Xiao as her predecessors, and getting Zhou Xiao's invitation was a great help to her self-confidence.
So, he plucked up the courage this time, as the oldest person in the second review.
Seeing Ozaki Nana walk into the interview room, Zhou Xiao and Qiu Yuankang glanced at each other, Qiu Yuankang stretched out his hand and gestured, signaling Zhou Xiao to ask her questions, because only Zhou Xiao in the entire selection team must have this woman enter the second selection, and others are really not interested in her, so they simply push all the questions to Zhou Xiao.
"Nana Ozaki, it's a hard flaw for you to participate in the idol audition at your age, even if you enter AKB in the future, you definitely can't do it here for a long time, maybe you won't be able to graduate before AKB becomes popular, even so, do you still want to participate in the audition?" Zhou Xiao's first question was quite direct and cruel.
"I ...... I don't have any other choice. Nana Ozaki hesitated for a moment and said, her words made Zhou Xiao raise his head and look at her.
"I actually came to Tokyo in '04, and I've participated in a lot of auditions in the past few years, but ......" Nana Ozaki was full of helplessness.
And after listening to her words, the people present did not react much, especially people other than Zhou Xiao, in fact, they have really heard a lot of similar words in the past few days, many older girls will use this trick of bitter tactics, in order to win the sympathy of the censors, but they don't know that if the censors hear it for the first time, they will be touched, but in the past two days, they have really heard too many such words, and after listening to them for a long time, I am afraid that no matter how bitter the content is, it will not attract their attention.
From this point of view, Nana Ozaki is actually quite tender, she has not yet learned to quietly increase her favorability and will only use this kind of straight ball in the eyes of the selection judges.
"Then if the company can only give you a contract that is not guaranteed, and may terminate the contract with you at any time, will you sign this contract?" Zhou Xiao asked again.
"It's okay." Nana Ozaki said.
In fact, Zhou Xiao is lying to her, and few entertainment companies will sign this kind of contract for artists who will terminate the contract at any time. There is no guaranteed contract, a company signs an artist, it must be to see that she has potential and can be cultivated, this kind of training itself requires a lot of money and time investment, artists are not athletes, they can become instant combat force anytime and anywhere, artists who are not famous need to spend money to cultivate There is no need to terminate the contract lightly, and the famous artists can bring people huge income, and it is even less likely to face the trouble of terminating the contract.
"Okay. So be it, we'll do our best to keep you informed of the results. Zhou Xiao said and covered his information book.
"Thanks, sorry for the trouble." Nana Ozaki stood up and said goodbye.
After Nana Ozaki went out, Yasu Akimoto turned his head and asked, "Are you really going to sign her?" ”
"I don't think it's realistic to ask her to be an idol, but it's enough to sign it to be a photo star, even if you can't get on a prime-time show or something, it's okay to be a late-night show." Zhou Xiao said.
Nana Ozaki's mistress face is not many in the industry, although the general favorability may be ridiculously low. But it is a big temptation for men, especially middle-aged men.
"When you first debuted a few years ago, everyone thought you were an idol who didn't think you could do anything, but then everyone found out that you were a powerful person with a lot of ideas, and now I found out. It turns out that your festival has long been gone......" Akimoto said meaningfully.
"What's wrong? What's the problem? Zhou Xiao asked strangely.
Akimoto said: "It's a big problem! An artist like Nana Ozaki is not signed casually, such an artist is more suitable for being the pillar artist of a small company, and by the way, being the mistress of the president of a small company or something, if such an artist is signed in your company. What about other artists in your company? Do you want to say that Nana Ozaki and your company Maki Horikita and Yui Aragaki are the same type of artists? ”
"......" Zhou Xiao really didn't expect that signing an artist would bring such associations to people.
"So. If you really want to sign her, and you want to sign her anyway, then what I will give you is to quietly buy a small brokerage company, and then let such a brokerage company sign her. Yasu Akimoto said that the small brokerage companies in his mouth are everywhere in Tokyo, and in the case of half-life, hundreds of thousands of yen may be able to buy the company with people to the office, of course, the so-called "bought" office is nothing more than one or two rented by the company, which is also very cheap? How can it not be cheap, and you still have to settle the company's millions to tens of millions of arrears by the way.
"Wait, I see, do you think I want to support her instead of really making her popular?" Zhou Xiao asked.
"Although you are the same age, judging from the social status of the two of you, you still want to fall in love with her, right?" Qiu Yuankang looked at Zhou Xiao and asked with a strange face.
It seems that Yasu Akimoto himself has the same idea as Zhou Xiao, that is, Nana Ozaki, this girl is really not the kind of girl who will make people fall in love.
Of course, Zhou Xiao wants to deny it: "I really think that she is at least an artist above the level, even if she can't become popular, at least she won't lose too much." ”
"If you really think so, then it's okay to sign her, just be careful about your own favorability after signing." Qiu Yuankang finally persuaded Zhou Xiao and stopped talking about anything else.
The next day, AZX notified Nana Ozaki to come to the company, and Zhou Xiao received her personally.
"I'm sorry, but AKB is really not very suitable for your age, so you have already lost the selection of AKB, but our company has prepared another contract for you." Zhou Xiao handed over the contract that had been prepared.
For Zhou Xiao's statement, Ozaki Nana has no surprises, she knows very well what kind of person she is, AKB's selection is just an effort that she does not give up, and there is nothing to say if she fails, AZX's contract is a surprise for her.
Zhou Xiao said: "After signing you, we will train you for a period of time, and then hope to package you according to the route of a photo actress, although you are not young, we still hope that you can work hard, and even try to finally reach the Cheng dù of Aki Hoshino." Zhou Xiao said.
Aki Hoshino gradually accumulated clarity after the coincidental support and help of Zhou Xiao and Tamura Jun, and is now quite popular in Japan, you must know that she is now 28 years old, and it is not easy for a photo actress to become popular at this age, which also makes her one of the expectations of other actresses in the industry, and many people expect to finally be thoughtful of her Cheng dù.
It's very easy to sign Nana Ozaki, she has worked hard for so long, isn't it actually just a signing, so no matter what AZX asks, it is almost acceptable to her.
And after signing Nana Ozaki, to Zhou Xiao's surprise, a job offer from the mainland was sent to his desk. (To be continued......)
