Since the 90s, idols have gradually become an area that most companies are reluctant to set foot in, at least in the case of traditional idols. And the regular work of idols was carried out by the girls with specialties in that direction selected by the company at that time, for example, some idols will take photos, some idols will do variety shows, and even some professions that were not originally idols have also developed idol sex such as voice actors.

And at this time, idols have also changed...... It's not that valuable anymore.

The idol before the kitten club is young and beautiful, and his favorite food is strawberry cake, and the boy he likes is a gentle person, and even during the meal, there will be a fairy tale rumor that "idols won't go to the toilet". Don't think that no one believes it, people today may not believe it, but there are really many fans at the time who would think so.

But the times also need idols, especially when the time enters the late 90s, when the Internet gradually enters people's lives, the idol industry finally begins to have a hint of recovery.

And the person who caught this sign was the group Good Morning Girls that Zhou Xiao was watching now, which was broadcast on TV.

Q is a well-known rock band that even sold more than a million singles in the 90s.

And in the late 90s, Shoot Chao Q held two talent shows for the lead singer of the rock singer, but the two champions produced by this talent show at that time are now rarely remembered. The thing that really makes people remember is that after the game, Chunjun (real name Mitsuo), the lead singer of the shooting chaos, gathered several girls who failed in the finals together on a whim, and gave them a single CD, at that time, Chunjun was probably just a casual try, so the first round of that single only made 50,000 copies, Chunjun felt that in a week's time, if these 50,000 CDs could be sold, these girls should be able to survive in the entertainment industry.

And the result of Zuihou is that this combination composed of whims, the task was completed in five days, and thus, in the current 2000, the good morning girl group was born.

The momentum of the Good Morning Girl Group in 98 and 99 was actually a bit up and down, the sales of the second to fourth singles basically remained at about 400,000, but the sales of the fifth and sixth singles after that fell to about 200,000, for the Japanese entertainment industry at that time, this was simply too normal, idols are not new, and the decline after a small fire is almost inevitable.

But at the end of '99, another single from the Good Morning Girls group came out, and this time, they really made history, which was a big surprise. For the seventh single, they directly surpassed one million sales.

The single "LOVEMACHINE" is cute, funny, and even a bit KUSO, but what really made Good Morning Girls sell the single was that they managed to get a different image from their previous idols into the eyes of Japanese audiences with the help of TV media and other media.

Among them, there are mature, naïve, arrogant, sick, idiot, smart, handsome, gentle, and even not so beautiful, they are no longer the simple "pure, upright, beautiful" spokespersons of the idols of the 80s. It can be said that since the Good Morning Girl Group, songs are no longer a necessary skill for idols, and a clear, well-known image has become the most essential thing for idols.

And this is also the reason why idols are extremely demanding of exposure and "resources".

Zhou Xiao looked at the girls bouncing on the TV, he could be said to be quite emotional, he knew very well what these girls would become in more than ten years.

Miki Fujimoto will marry comedian Tomoharu Shoji, and in a variety show in 2013, she will appear as a senior in AKB's show, which will make Japanese audiences and Chinese audiences who know the history of Japanese idols feel that time flies.

Strong aura, the most star-like, wind-like girl Goto Maki will be hit by her family, especially her younger brother, and there are constant rumors that she will go to the sea to play A.V.

Yuki Kashiwagi, a girl from Kagoshima, is infatuated with Rika Ishikawa, and because she eventually became an idol, she joined AKB48 and became an existence that was not inferior to them.

Kei Hoda can be an idol with this kind of look, and it is almost impossible to be an idol in the eighties......

And Sasato Yaguchi...... was caught by her husband in the closet and ruined the image she had built up over the years......

In the 21st century, the era of idols was opened by them, and after them, Zhou Xiao will replace Yasushi Akimoto and become the one who takes over the baton!

"But...... Until then...... I'm going to fill my stomach first...... If you really starve to death, there will be nothing......" Zhou Xiao thought as he looked at the small room he lived in.

For the traverser, the most haode way to make money is probably to write a novel, because this is a completely uninvested and profitable business. However, although Zhou Xiao likes Japanese entertainment, he does not have much in-depth knowledge of Japanese literature, and most of the novels he remembers in his mind are made in China, and these novels are obviously inappropriate in Japan. But I closed my eyes and rummaged in my mind, not to mention, I really let Zhou Xiao find a few Japanese novels that will come out in the future and have not yet come out.

These novels have the same author: Keigo Higashino.

But Zhou Xiao couldn't say that he directly copied the novel in his mind and showed it to the publishing house.

The main reason why Zhou Xiao has Keigo Higashino's novels in his mind is that these novels are all works of Keigo Higashino that have been adapted into movies or TV series, so they will be included in his Japanese entertainment website, the most important of which are "The Devotion of Suspect X", "Meteor Trip" and "New Participant".

In these three novels, the new entrant and the meteor trip may have nothing to do with the publishing house directly, but the dedication of Suspect X must be overhauled, because the original protagonist and background of the book are from the novel "Detective Galileo", which has been published in 1998, in the future, Detective Galileo will be adapted into a Japanese drama and released, and "The Devotion of Suspect X" will be adapted into a theatrical version of Galileo.

In addition, Keigo Higashino's writing has changed from the early to the late period, and now he writes all speculative novels, but the writing is still relatively fresh, and it will not be until the later stage that his writing will become old and exciting, and "The Suspect" is the watershed before and after the level of his novel writing.

Therefore, even if Zhou Xiao wants to copy these three novels, it will take a certain amount of time to consider the choice of words and sentences, judging from the state of his 5,000 yuan, before the 5,000 yuan is spent, I am afraid that he will not be able to write enough words to publish the book.

"Words other than writing books...... Zhou Xiao's gaze wandered around the room, zuihou, his gaze stopped on the guitar in the corner.

After staring at the guitar for half a minute, Zhou Xiao first shook his head.

"No...... Let's not talk about copying the song and taking it there, but it's worrying whether the company will give it money first after receiving the song. ”

Japan is very strict about copyright, 6% for songwriters, 2% to 3% of the sales share of singers is more strict, in addition, karaoke income, copyright income from TV stations and other names are also a lot of accounts, this very haode system on the one hand allows many songwriters to live for a lifetime or even as long as they write a popular enough song can have no worries about food and clothing, on the other hand, in the current predicament, it also makes Zhou Xiao unable to "get a sum of money first at least food and clothing".

"Do you really want to go down the road of funny artists?" Although he got very good results today, Zhou Xiao really doesn't want to be a funny artist.

"Huh? Wait a minute......" Zhou Xiao's eyes fell on the guitar again.

"If only I just made some money to eat first......"

Looking at the guitar, Zhou Xiao thought of another way to make money.

Go...... How about going to sing?

Japan.................. There should be no chengguan, right?

PS, although the ultimate goal is to establish AKB, the period from 2000 to 2005 will not be shorthanded, or rather, AKB is just a part of the book. Tomorrow the mail contract is signed. Thank you to the other seniors who wrote Japanese entertainment for their support. If anyone is interested in starting a group, they can leave it in the book review area, and I will help you top it.
