"Big star? I'd better talk about it after I have to worry about food and clothing. Zhou Xiao thought to himself when he heard Inoue talk about the big star.

But there was naturally no need to say such words, and after a few more greetings with Inoue, Zhou Xiao finally said goodbye to him and began to walk towards his small home.

That's right, let's go, although compared with the 30 yuan when he just went out, the 5,000 yuan in Zhou Xiao's pocket at the moment is already a huge amount of money, but Zhou Xiao, who knows that the 5,000 yen can't be spent at all, must be prepared to break a penny in half.

Zhou Xiao, who returned home, began to seriously consider which path he would take in the future.

Regardless of the future, at least one ultimate goal is certain, and that is to build AKB48.

If he hadn't existed, this girl group would have been established on December 8, 2005, and now it's 2000, and it's not difficult to establish an idol group, but building AKB48? That's definitely not going to be easy.

Even if you have so many songs, so many ideas, some very important things still need to be won in these five years, or only four years or so.

The first thing you need is money.

Of course, it doesn't cost much to just build a small idol group, but building AKB? Even the initial investment will not be less.

If nothing else, renting an entire floor of Don Quixote in Akihabara is a big investment, and the rent of Don Quixote will not be just a one-year transaction, but three or five years, and the rent will inevitably be calculated in "100 million".

This is only the first expenditure, and other expenses will not be less, such as the rehearsal and recording of songs, in fact, it is also very expensive, renting a recording studio, finding a professional recording engineer to record, choreographing and rehearsing dances, renting training venues, planning and production of costumes, and even the purchase of sound in the theater, the purchase of microphones, and the purchase of software all require a lot of money.

And after spending all this, it is likely that the so-called AKB is still just a concept for the general public, and it has not even started its underground debut.

Even if he debuts, the initial time is destined to be mainly about burning money, for example, the performance of this theater, the ticket money received for the performance with a capacity of 250 people per day is a drop in the bucket, and it is fortunate to be able to maintain a basic balance of payments.

In addition, if you want to build AKB, in addition to money, there is also a more important point called soft power.

After AKB was established, in order to strive for more resources, try to pull more people to his chariot and then build AKB into an unsinkable aircraft carrier-like national group, the biggest initiative he made was to sign the members' brokerage contracts with multiple companies, these companies and their parent companies are almost all over the entire Japanese entertainment industry, only in this way, Yasu Akimoto and his AKB can not incur the counterattack of major companies, and develop more haode.

For Yasu Akimoto, this is a move that must be taken, otherwise, it is impossible for him to fight with the entire Japanese entertainment industry alone, you know, although AKB's popularity has made Japan's idol culture grow by several orders of magnitude, but at the same time, he has also blocked the financial path of some other people, AKB not only rampage on Japan's major lists, but even squeezed the photo actresses to the point that they can barely live.

But Zhou Xiao believes that if possible, Qiu Yuankang would never choose this, who would want to let others dictate the child-like combination that he created and established?

So for Zhou Xiao, if he could, he would never choose it, of course, if he didn't hand over the members to major companies, the future would be very difficult and difficult, but Zhou Xiao has been creating in the Japanese entertainment industry for more than ten years, and he will definitely try to avoid doing this. Don't think it's very simple, it's not easy to simply let rival companies not hinder their own development, if the resources of these companies can't be used, then Zhou Xiao must find a way to find more TV station resources for the members, otherwise, AKB is likely to just be a small fire and then disappear, and it is impossible to become the monster group he has experienced.

And where Qiu Yuanyasu has, where Zhou Xiao doesn't have it now, lies in his fame and his own strength. In the 80s, he single-handedly built the "Kitten Club", which can be called the predecessor of AKB48, and he was also a planner for many famous programs in Japan, and he wrote the lyrics of many famous songs, so that he could get enough response after posting recruitment advertisements.

Therefore, zuihou's conclusion is that in addition to money, Zhou Xiao must make a big enough name in the past few years, at least not smaller than Yasuya Akimoto, not only that, he needs to do more, he must have enough resources in major TV stations and even entertainment media companies to make himself able to speak, so that it is possible for AKB members to have enough TV and radio resources without being assigned to major companies.

"Money, fame and real assets are all indispensable, and in the past five years, I have to do a lot of things......" Zhou Xiao thought a little distracted as he lay on the bed in the small room.

It's only 2000 now, for Zhou Xiao, there are no birds during the day and no birds at night, and he just entered this circle in his teens, and he doesn't know any seniors to socialize, so he can only be bored and daze at the ceiling.

"By the way, let's watch TV!" Zhou Xiao suddenly remembered that since he wanted to do something on TV, how could he not watch TV. Naturally, such a small rented room will not bring you a TV, and the ten-inch small TV in Zhou Xiao's house is the one he picked up from the garbage dump and can barely see people.

After turning on the TV, I don't know if it's because the signal is not clear or because of the TV itself, there are a lot of snowflakes and interference in the picture, Zhou Xiao didn't see it well after taking two shots, so he had no choice but to endure it.

The TV series and cartoons broadcast on the TV station are very boring, after all, they are more than ten years ago, even if it is a famous TV series, it is not very interesting for Zhou Xiao now.

After changing a few channels, Zhou Xiao finally found something that interested him: singing programs!

Although the actors in these singing shows are stupid in Zhou Xiao's eyes regardless of their makeup or performance, at least the songs are good, and many singer groups at this time, he still knows them very well after more than ten years, looking at them in their youth on TV, Zhou Xiao is still very emotional.

"Huh!?" At this time, Zhou Xiao unexpectedly found a group of combinations on TV that interested him very much.

This combination is the Good Morning Girl Group.

"Really...... It's a little emotional. ”

Looking at the young girls on the TV, Zhou Xiao was very emotional.

In the early 80s, Yamaguchi Momoe retired and got married, and left her white microphone at the Budokan and drifted away, after which Japanese idol culture entered its peak, and a large number of girls who took into account idols and strength such as Seiko Matsuda, Akina Nakamori, and Kyoko Koizumi decorated the bubble era of drunken gold fans with extremely shining colors. But such idols are easy to get tired of, and when there was only one media channel like TV at that time, many entertainment industry practitioners who are more sensitive to the market can feel that relatively simple idols will soon come to the top. And the person who extinguished the fire of idols in the bubble era was actually Yasuya Akimoto.

From its establishment in 1985 to its dissolution in 1987, Yasushi Akimoto's kitten club created a miracle and fast food, saying that the miracle is because, in 1986, in a year, 52 weeks of the Japanese public list, the kitten club and related groups won the first place for 38 weeks! But so what? After the disbandment of the kitten club, few members of the group can continue to live in the entertainment industry.

And what this combination really left to the Japanese entertainment industry is probably only these girls, many of whom have become wives of various figures in the entertainment industry later. Among them, the most famous is that Mamiko Takai married Yasushi Akimoto and Shizuka Kudo, who married Takuya Kimura, the king of Japan.

From the 80s to the 90s, few idol groups in Japan were able to debut, and even fewer were successful, and the only one that really remained in the annals of history, the only one with strength, I'm afraid there is only SPEED.
