Chapter 521: The Great Group Pavilion Festival in Preparation!
It was another early morning, Zhou Xiao walked into the company's conference room, in the conference room, a group of AKB operations staff were already waiting here, not only in front of the round table in the conference room, but also around the conference room There were quite a lot of people standing, everyone was very strict, because what everyone is going to start discussing today is the AKB Summer Budokan Concert Pavilion Formation List that will be held soon!
AKB's cabinet formation is a very attractive link, the things that the members expressed in the suddenly coming cabinet, although they don't like it themselves, but they like this kind of thing the most, so the operation of a certain amount of Cheng dù can be regarded as a matter of their liking, forming a cabinet or something, Zhou Xiao has done it several times before.
In fact, in Zhou Xiao's view, the formation of a cabinet is not suitable for too much, first of all, the biggest purpose of the cabinet is to allow the members to have a good chemistry in the new environment, but in the later stage, many cabinets have become "a cabinet for the sake of a cabinet", such a cabinet, Zhou Xiao feels that it is better not to do it.
Secondly, who is in the cabinet is also very important, the first cabinet in AKB's history is very perfect, and many members have obtained the corresponding status and resources in the new team, but the later cabinet formation, especially part of the choice of operation in the later cabinet formation, Zhou Xiao feels that it is somewhat debatable, such as the first time Kitahara Riying served as SKE, Kitahara finally found his place in SKE after more than a year, and a cabinet was lifted but let her leave there, such an unreasonable operation, Zhou Xiao felt that it was understandable that he could be hated.
AKB formed a cabinet for the first time in the previous life, even if you don't watch the video, Zhou Xiao can remember a lot, the most amazing thing about this first cabinet formation is that Itano Tomomi and Minami went to TeamK, AKB's cabinet, it doesn't really disrupt all the members, the soul of each team, the cabinet will not move, this kind of soul character. Obviously, Group A is Takahashi and Maeda, Group K is the iron triangle of Akimoto Miyazawa and Yuko Oshima, and Group B is Mayuki, and these people are the undoubted center of the three teams.
In addition to these few people, other people move again, which is the so-called formation of a cabinet.
In the first cabinet formation, the most eye-catching thing was the movement of Itano Tomomi, in fact, Zhou Xiao felt that Mariko Shinoda and Yona Kojima were not unable to move. The reason why the operation didn't move these two girls in the end,I'm afraid I really think they're not suitable for moving.,Both girls are tall, beautiful and mature types.,Going to Group B will definitely conflict with Group B's Lori style.,But what about Group K? Shinoda's singing and dancing ability is not excellent, and there is a certain gap between the body and the style from Group K, and Kojima is even more impossible, a girl who is nicknamed "95-year-old body" by the rice, if you go to Group K, I'm afraid you will have the intention of graduating soon, right?
in this state. It was almost a matter of course that Tomomi Itano, who had energy and could dance, and Minami Minami Minegishi were moved to Group K.
In addition, in addition to this purpose, Zhou Xiao's cabinet formation in his previous life also had a very important purpose to "drive" the members who felt that the operation was "not needed and unimportant" to SDN. At that time, the members were not very resistant to going to SDN, and everyone thought that it was normal for adult members to go there, if they knew that SDN would become a testing ground for running "Hallyu-style Japanese idols" in the future, and eventually gave up. They wouldn't be willing to go to SDN.
In this life, Zhou Xiao, who did not establish SDN, found a better place for most of the members, that is, A&E, and the original purpose was gone. Although there are still so many members in the team who would have become SDN who have not gone to A&E and are still staying in AKB, these people are no longer mainstream, in Zhou Xiao's opinion, they either graduated in 2010 when AKB was the most popular in November, or stayed in the theater like Kobayashi Coriander.
Now that Zhou Xiaolai is presiding over the formation of the cabinet, what kind of adjustments will he make? In fact, in Zhou Xiao's view, AKB's first formation of the cabinet was perfect, and many personnel adjustments were later proved to be very correct in the idea of operation, such as Group A, among the members of Yuan A, Itano Tomomi's movement is very correct, because everyone in Yuan A has grown up, if she doesn't move, there will be quite problems in the center of the unit, the position in the team, etc.
But on the other hand, Feng Annan's movement Zhou Xiao is a little complicated, and Feng Annan's move to Group K is no problem in his opinion, but ...... Is it really necessary to give her a center position for the unitary song? This girl's variety show is good, and it can be regarded as a great contribution to AKB, but her biggest problem is that she has an upper limit, and about 14 is already her limit position, giving her such an important unit position will make Zhou Xiao feel a little debatable.
You know, in the K6 performance after the formation of the cabinet, Megumi Ono was stuffed into the unit song of Tomomi Itano.
From the perspective of the future, who is more valuable than Ono or Minami? Zhou Xiao will undoubtedly choose the former, Feng'an Nan has an upper limit, and she can only do that.
Zhou Xiao estimated that one of the biggest reasons for the operation to put Feng Annan in the C position of the K group unit song was that she was still the well-deserved queen of variety shows in AKB at that time, an idol group that became popular and began to appear on TV in large numbers, and there is no doubt how important a good member of variety shows is, so the operation will give her this position.
At this time, no matter how optimistic you are, I don't think that Rino Shihara is the one who can become the first and even defeat Yuko Oshima......
That's Yuko Oshima, she and Maeda, are the symbols of the first era of AKB, and Zhiyuan won Yuko Oshima's behavior, Zhou Xiao and even Maeda didn't graduate at that time, Zhiyuan might have lifted Maeda down!
It would be fun if that were the case...... It's so much fun......
Zhou Xiao's biggest challenge is how to arrange people who are now in the team, but were not members of AKB before, or who were no longer in AKB at this time.
Is Mai Oshima going to move? Mika Saeki's injuries have gradually improved, Ayaka Kikuchi's cautious time is almost up, and the Chinese mother Li Chun is also not young, how will her store zài be managed? And the concurrent positions of Reina and Yagami Kumi must be lifted this time, so who will be the second generation next?
I wasn't in AKB before, and now Zhou Xiao doesn't think about moving at all, only Airi Suzuki is alone, and she, along with Mayu Watanabe and Yuki Kashiwagi, are the absolute central figures of TeamB.
Forming a cabinet is definitely a big deal for today's AKB, and what is better than Zhou Xiao's cabinet formation in his previous life is that he is forming a cabinet now. Without the secret war of brokerage companies other than operations, in the case of thinking in one place and working hard in one place, no matter what adjustments are made, there will be no obstacles in operation.
Cabinet meetings held in secret, especially for the first time, are not possible to negotiate in one day, and various aspects of the operation need to be taken into account.
The most important problem in forming a cabinet is the performance, because the main thing is to divide the team or something, and the main thing is the performance. It doesn't matter what team the members belong to in the AKB in the media or the like. Who will be the center location of the new performance after the formation of the cabinet? How to solve the problem of unit candidates? How to distribute the MCs in the performance, and who can shoulder the responsibility of the atmosphere initiator of the whole team?
Although Zhou Xiao knew the detachment situation of most of the members in his heart, he couldn't explain it to everyone at once, and how to adjust those members who were not originally in the AKB was also related to the members who had already determined their positions in Zhou Xiao's heart, such as Mai Oshima, if she was asked to go to Group K or Group B, should she be given a unit position?
And Mai Oshima and Yuko Oshima have always been dissatisfied with anyone, not to mention when they are on vacation after the general election. Mai Oshima stole Zhou Xiao's room and was also known by Yuko Oshima, if they are really put together, there will be a lot of excitement in Group K in the future, Akimoto Saiga and Miyazawa Sae are absolute allies of Yuko Oshima. Zhou Xiao can't rule out the possibility that Mai Oshima will win over Itano Tomomi and others to fight against the Yuan K forces after she reaches Group K.
As for Group B, Zhou Xiao felt that there would be no problem if Mai Oshima went.
The position of the two of them is already very, very stable, and the position of Yuki Kashiwagi is almost the same, and Mai Oshima is gone. is very smart, and it is impossible for her to dare to challenge Mayou Airi's position in Zhou Xiao's heart.
In short, on the third day of the secret meeting in the conference room, I looked at the few people on the list that had been gradually formed. Zhou Xiao felt a little worried, especially Mai Oshima, leaving her was Zhou Xiaoyi's request, but she didn't expect that in the end, she became the most difficult person to arrange.
Along with the secret cabinet formation meeting, there is also a new performance by the three AKB teams.
The last three new AKB performances in history were A6, K6, and B5, which started on July 27, 2010 for A6, March 12, 2010 for K6, and May 21, 2010 for B5.
Historically, AKB's selection ceremony was held on August 23, 2009, which means that even the fastest K-group started their new performance after half a year of formation, while the slowest A-group waited almost a year for their new performance to start.
What's even more tragic is that the A6 performance on July 27, 2010 has become the last original performance of AKB in the previous life, from that day until the end of 2014, the number of new performances of AKB is zero, even if you look at the entire AKB group, the new performances after this day, that is, SKE's KII performance and NMB's N performance, are just two performances!
There have been no new performances for more than four years, and watching this posture go straight for five years, this is the most regrettable thing for AKB!
That's right, AKB is indeed busy, not only AKB is busy, but also the operation, Akimoto Yasu is even busier, so Zhou Xiao doesn't hate the operation too much and is more regretful, because he knows very well that the operation doesn't want to open a new performance, since 2012, AKB's new performance has been moving forward in the constant determination of time and continuous postponement, how can the operation not want to update the new performance, but this is difficult, there are too many songs of the 4 groups, and Akimoto Yasushi can't write the songs of these four groups just by writing them, What's more, you have to take care of the occasional solo and squad members?
Zhou Xiao would not allow this kind of thing to happen.
Today's AKB, he and Akimoto Yasu are joint people, and more importantly, AKB is a single company group, Zhou Xiao does not need to be used as a word like Akimoto Yasu to ensure the cohesion of the team, so after one to two years of today's three performances, Zhou Xiao is preparing an attractive plan.
This plan is actually a plan that the AKB shouted in the previous life for a long time. That's ...... "Contract" the performance to someone else!
To whom? One of the goals of most people in the previous life was Tetsuya Komuro, the man who single-handedly created the entire modern music of Japan in the 90s, and his life was not going well in the 21st century, and he was riddled with various tax evasion and other problems, which made Japan's evaluation of him drop a lot, but Tetsuya Komuro's musical ability is still very strong, and it should be no problem for him to perform as an idol group.
The key is to give him some benefits so that he can do this, you know, AKB performances or something, even if they release CDs or DVDs, sales are very low. In the case of a theater performance, Tetsuya Komuro could not get enough money for the copyright like an ordinary musical work, and if the management wanted to ask him to help, he had to promise a sufficient remuneration.
Although Tetsuya Komuro in his previous life had contact with Yasusu Akimoto many times, he finally did not take over the decision to perform a new performance, so it's hard to say if it will be because of this relationship.
In addition to Tetsuya Komuro, Chunjun is also a storage zài who has been YY by many people, but Chunjun wants to take over AKB's performance creation, and in Zhou Xiao's opinion, the possibility is very, very low. People are the makers of AKB's opponents, so why did they come to take over AKB's performance, and although Good Morning Niang is in decline, she is not weak, compared to the time of the fire. After 2010, the good morning mother is nothing more than making less money, and there is enough core meal support in marketing, at least shrinking the scale and investment, you can easily make money Good Morning Niang and Chunjun. You don't need to take this job at all.
(Junjun had his vocal cords removed due to laryngeal cancer some time ago, and although it's a pity, I think it's okay as long as he's in good health, and I'm not really worried about him in terms of music.) It's just that he can't speak, and his musical literacy and ability are still there. )
In addition to these few people, Zhou Xiao also has a few ideas, that is...... Tetsuro Oda or Sakai spring water!
Sakai Izumi's sister writes her own songs relatively little, but not nothing, after successfully surviving 2007, her health is completely better, 08 years of a contract transferred to AZX album sold about 300,000 sales, this album incorporates more newer things, and also adds a song given to her by Zhou Xiao, and although this sales have not caught up with the level of Zhang Zhang million ten years ago, it is still a first-class artist.
As for Oda Tetsuro, many of AKB's songs in his previous life were written by him, and there is no problem for him to take over a performance of AKB, if a qiē develops normally, Zhou Xiao can even try to let Oda Tetsuro compose the music, and Sakai Izumizu's sister compose the lyrics, and jointly create a being public performance!
When the time comes, if you get a deposit like Tetsuya Komuro......
Being performances, Komuro performances, and possibly even Okinawa performances in the future...... In Zhou Xiao's ambitions, if these performances with a distinctive style are really successful, there is no doubt that they can become a beautiful scenery for AKB's performances.
This is definitely something he is looking forward to, because before he crossed over, AKB's performances that had not been updated for many years and the music style that was becoming more and more homogeneous was something he regretted.
Most of AKB's music production is actually done by a small number of people, and the authors of several surnames such as Inoue, Notane, and Wakatabe take over most of AKB's music production and arrangement, and even if a newcomer's song is selected, the final arrangement is still made by the staff of AKB's own music production room, and many of the songs they make up are actually in the same key.
If Oda Tetsuro and others can really take over AKB's new performance, it will undoubtedly make the situation a lot better, as for Zhou Xiao and Akimoto Yasushi lost some of the income that should have belonged to them, there is no way, the stall is big, and it is not normal to hand it over to others when there is no way to maintain it, in the previous life, Akimoto Yasu did it himself, and in this life he can't call the shots, but no one will get used to him and give him so much time not to update the performance.
The three-day cabinet meeting can make the people of AZX tired enough, especially for some senior executives in the company, Zhou Xiao himself is a non-smoker, so the smoking ban measures within the AZX company are relatively strict, usually everyone who wants to smoke can also run outside or the smoking room to solve it, but after the meeting, who still has time, many smokers have been scratching their ears and cheeks in these days.
And in the end, when the cabinet meeting was over, the ending of these people was divided into two kinds, one was "It's finally over, let me smoke two more cigarettes to cool off", and the other was that since I haven't smoked for three days, I just quit by the way......
Zhou Xiao himself didn't notice this, he sat in the office, looking at the final list of the cabinet in his hand and fell into a reverie.
"After the formation of the cabinet this time, AKB's take-off should be coming......" Zhou Xiao thought as he knocked on his chin. (To be continued......)
