Chapter 401: The Only Concert in '07

Resisting the whole team to himself, Zhou Xiao's pressure has increased a lot, and now he finally feels the strength of Akimoto Yasu, now it's actually okay, AKB's reputation is insufficient, and the operation of the whole team is only Zhou Xiao's AZX company, and when AKB is promoted to a national organization in the future, as a group with an annual income of more than 200 million US dollars and related industries adding up to more than 2 billion US dollars, the pressure on its leadership is also increasing several times and dozens of times, such AKB, So many people's net worth and work are all dependent on Qiu Yuanyasu alone, and Qiu Yuankang can still lead him well, which is a kind of strength in itself.

The strength of Qiu Yuanyasu's previous life inspired Zhou Xiao, in Zhou Xiao's opinion, now he is no longer Wu Xia Ameng, if he directly crosses into Qiu Yuankang after 2010, maybe he may really be crushed by huge pressure, but now he has been a company boss and a big star for several years, and his vision and experience are no longer the one he can compare with in his previous life, plus he has a plug-in so many years in advance, what Qiu Yuankang can do, he must do better, Not only to give AKB a better future in the future, but also to prove that his love for AKB is no worse than anyone else's, and what Yasu Akimoto can do, he can also do.

Although Zhou Xiao has a dream and goal to surpass Qiu Yuanyasu, this dream is destined to be unknown to anyone, as for Qiu Yuanyasu today, although he has been paying attention to the development of AKB, he is not the chief engineer in the end, he can put more time and energy into lyrics creation and some work that Zhou Xiao can't take care of.

For example, the "Future My Making Method" that Atsuko Maeda took over before was contacted by Yasushi Akimoto, and in terms of lyrics, what he didn't know was that his creation was much stronger than him in his previous life, and abundant time and energy were indeed a big guarantee for good works.

At the beginning of 2007, AKB48-48minutes, which was supposed to be AKB48's first TV series, was released in a company called "MUSICON! TV", "AKB48-48minutes", which was broadcast as a special group, was broadcast. From January to April 2007, it was only broadcast for a few months, but because it was a pay TV station, the duration of the zuò was quite good, and each episode was basically full of 48 minutes, which was quite a good exposure, and the content of the program was mostly some of AKB's daily activities, and if there was a special video, it would be done in the theater or outside the theater.

There's a lot of content in this show...... Eight or nine years later, it can be said that it is a complete super welfare, for example, in one episode, the whole show recorded more than 30 people in AKB doing activities in the park with their meals. More than 30 members, accompanied by about 200 meals, these people are divided into groups of ten for every three people, each group with a few meals to play together, AKB people walk side by side with rice, eight years later, if AKB still dares to do such an activity, and it is Maeda Oshima and other A and K groups almost all the members of the two groups, I am afraid that the number of recruited meals can exceed tens of thousands, but now. There were only 200 people in attendance.

Think about this kind of activity, put yourself in your shoes...... It's really amazing that girls can participate with smiles on their faces, at least if they are replaced by Zhou Xiao, if he is allowed to accompany him, he looks strange. Some are standard fat people, most people will look at their otaku with disgusting eyes, Zhou Xiao even watched the rice in the show have a two-person three-legged competition, and the person who tied the ankle rope to the rice turned out to be Atsuko Maeda! If the man who enjoyed Atsuko Maeda's foot-binding at the time knew. The girl in front of her will be able to wear a wedding dress in front of tens of thousands of people at Tokyo Dome in a few years to graduate, and when the theater graduates, there will be tens of thousands of people outside the theater, and even cause traffic jams. What do you think?

With such a spirit of service, Zhou Xiao felt that he might not be able to hold back even half an hour.

But these girls can not only shake hands and take photos with many of these otaku, but they will not show their annoyance at all when they are active together, and they can do this, either they really enjoy the process of doing activities with people who like them, or they have super high professionalism.

AKB's idols, who have survived the hardest time, this kind of service spirit or professionalism, I'm afraid it's the most admirable thing about them, and later girls who use "salt" as a selling point, if they join AKB at this time, I'm afraid they will either be called or eliminated, and it is absolutely impossible to become popular by relying on salt.

Of course, it's not that girls like Haruka Shimazaki are worse than their predecessors, it's just that it's hard for them to survive in the AKB, where they have earlier morale and closer contact with the rice.

Although it is just an ordinary variety show on a pay-TV station, it is very historic for AKB, because it should be regarded as the first TV variety show produced in the name of AKB.

As a pay-TV program, it is impossible to broadcast this program with the quality of the five major TV stations, but even if it is such a program, the girls who heard that they are going to produce this program are very happy, and it should be something they are very eager to do on TV.

Like the outdoor activities carried out by the members and rice in the variety show, Zhou Xiao actually wants to participate, but he can't participate, because if the news that he wants to participate is put together with the girls, maybe there will be a meal of thousands of Zhou Xiao, and when the time comes, it will be too inappropriate to appear as a producer, but he has the highest popularity, so such a show can only be attended by Uncle Inoue with the girls.

In addition to the TV show, AKB's second concert was also held in March.

Like Zhou Xiao's previous life, AKB's concert was only one last year, and there is only one this year, which is no way, the concert thing, the current AKB is also at the level of one a year, and there are many of them, not to mention whether it can be done in terms of operation, just in terms of attendance, I am afraid it will decline very much.

And at this concert, as usual, Zhou Xiao appeared again in the last link of the concert, and started a surprise link that the masses liked to see.

It's the end of March 2007. Approaching April, Zhou Xiao's movie has been filming for a month, and the performances in the AKB theater are also going on as planned.

First of all, the performances of Group A will be replaced. The surprise performance of Group A has been going on for a while, and now there is still some time until the end of the year, and Zhou Xiao finally took out the A4 performance.

As for Group K, K3 will also start a surprise performance after running for a while, and their surprise performance will continue until the end of this year. After the surprise performance, he directly entered the sunflower, lily and dandelion performance that disrupted the three groups.

Then, after months of training, the first performance of Group B will officially begin.

Finally, on the operational side, although the first performance of Group B has not yet started, they are already preparing to recruit four students.

Fourth-term students, from this period onwards, members who enter the AKB will first become graduate students rather than full members. From this semester onwards, new graduate students will eventually join the three AKB teams, and this system will not change again until all the outstanding ninth students enter AKB.

In fact. The operators can't wait to add the fourth batch of students to AKB right away, because after the start of the B group performance in the future, AKB will soon be in a situation where no one is available again.

In addition to the new performance and the fourth phase of students, another new surprise is. AKB's fifth single was revealed for the first time on this day.

AKB's fifth single...... With an extra-long name that would be considered a word count after the novel's author typed it out, this single featuring two Chinese members is first and foremost a song of excellent quality.

The two current Chinese members of AKB are Li Chun and temporary member Li Xuejiao, whose name and appearance. Although the Japanese rice people have a certain understanding, but there are not many people who really push, as for criticism, compared to going to good morning, the non-parliament here in Zhou Xiao is much smaller, because Zhou Xiao himself is a Chinese, even if he was born and raised in Japan, as long as he has always carried this standard Chinese name, in the eyes of the Japanese, he has always been Chinese.

Because of the song, Zhou Xiao, the MV of the new single, was also very attentive to filming, and because of the Chinese elements of this single, Zhou Xiao didn't do anything, and simply chose a Chinese director to make the MV of the song...... It is Zhou Getai from Taiwan.

As a very good narrative MV director, Zhou Getai has considerable influence on the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, Liang Jingru's "Courage" and Guangliang's "Fairy Tale" are all from him.

Such a very good MV director may not be well-known in Japan, but Zhou Xiao feels that he still has great potential, and there is no problem in shooting AKB's MVs.

Receiving Zhou Xiao's invitation, Zhou Getai is very excited, Zhou Xiao's directing ability is well known, this kind of super director will ask him to shoot the MV, which is undoubtedly a great affirmation for him.

The news that Zhou Xiao invited Zhou Getai to shoot the MV hardly anyone in Japan cared about it, but in Taiwan, the news still caused a stir.

Compared with the mainland, Zhou Xiao's popularity in Taiwan is absolutely strong, Taiwan has introduced a lot of Japanese music and TV programs, and there is even a Weilai Japanese station that specializes in broadcasting Japanese TV programs.

This kind of Taiwan's sensitivity to Japan's various pops is far from being comparable to the mainland, and since Zhou Xiao's debut, Taiwan has begun to gather many of Zhou Xiao's fans.

In fact, the difference between the Chinese circle and the Japanese entertainment circle is really not big, before Zhou Xiao, there are not no Chinese who are popular in Japan, Teresa Teng and other Chinese singers needless to say, Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan also have super popularity in Japan, when Jackie Chan got married, Japan's girl suicide incident is simply a sensation throughout Asia, not to mention these entertainment stars, even Chinese sports athletes, in Japan there is often no shortage of star chasers, such as the historical Chinese men's volleyball and men's table tennis, in Japan have quite unexpected popularity.

Taiwan's entertainment industry is indeed not as good as the Japanese entertainment industry, or in other words, the Taiwanese entertainment industry actually grew up by constantly learning the Japanese entertainment industry, after 2000, the Korean Wave swept the whole of Southeast Asia and indulged in the Korean entertainment circle, and Taiwan is of course no exception, here is also affected by the Korean Wave, but the impact is the impact, Taiwan's entertainment industry still has a very strong Japanese style.

Taiwan's Chinese-speaking entertainment industry, which relies on the Japanese entertainment industry, will inevitably have a considerable sense of intimacy for Zhou Xiao, who can also speak. Over the years since his debut, Zhou Xiao has been to Taiwan several times, and almost every time he will be warmly welcomed by the local food, and there will be no shortage of actions such as picking up the airport and even chasing cars, but Zhou Xiao has not paid much attention to the Taiwan market, this is the advantage of the upper entertainment industry over the lower entertainment industry, and the stars in the upper entertainment industry actually don't need to pay attention to the lower entertainment industry market at all, because even if they don't pay attention at all, as long as they can still maintain their influence in the upper entertainment industry, they are in the lower entertainment industry. The superior can still have a sizable meal group.

For Zhou Getai, he is equivalent to jumping from the stage of the lower entertainment industry to the upper position, and the leap between the two levels has always been the most difficult, Zhou Xiao's small invitation, but it is almost difficult for Zhou Getai to help him in his life.

And Zhou Getai, who came to Japan, did not disappoint Zhou Xiao with the MV he filmed, the most standard narrative style, very cleverly introduced two Chinese girls, so that the fans quickly got to know them. According to Zhou Xiao's request, this MV does not simply highlight the two of them, in addition to these two girls, AKB and other girls. Especially Atsuko Maeda, Minami Takahashi and Yuko Oshima and other front-row members also have quite a lot of appearances, and the style of the whole MV is quite fresh and warm, which makes people immediately like the girls in the MV, especially the two girls from China.

AKB's concert is over. Zhou Xiao continued to run to make a movie, and the filming of "The Undertaker" actually took a long time to prepare before entering the shooting, this preparation time. The main thing is to make zuò group to find a location for filming, after the preparation is over, the filming begins, because of the abundant time, the pace of shooting is not fast, Zhou Xiao has more time to do his own things, for example, after the AKB concert, Zhou Xiao received a group of friends from the Chinese entertainment industry.

came to find Zhou Xiao, it was Stephen Chow and his film production team.

Zhou Xiao, the script of "Yangtze River No. 7", was actually given to Stephen Chow last year, and at the end of this year, the filming of this movie is finally about to begin.

Before the start of filming, if it was just an ordinary rookie screenwriter, the film crew might not come to talk to the screenwriter, but if this person was replaced by Zhou Xiao, the person who wished to be connected with Zhou Xiao would become Stephen Chow's crew.

Zhou Xiao is also not polite, it can be regarded as a very dedicated effort to tie up Stephen Chow to improve this movie, and even introduced the Japanese music and computer stunt team in the past, and Zhou Xiao's request is also very simple, he said it very directly, I am now a girl idol, I am more interested in young girls, and when I audition for the young actors in this film, if there are suitable young actors, I hope to sign it.

This requirement...... For Stephen Chow's side, it is simply too insignificant.

Little actors or something, it is undeniable that some young actors are also very potential, but the Chinese entertainment industry does not have the standard child star manufacturing company and industrial chain in the Japanese entertainment industry, so child stars or something, if they happen to become popular, they do have a lot of income for a period of time, but after a long time, few child stars are still popular when they grow up, and most of them have become ordinary actors or even ordinary people.

Therefore, Zhou Xiao's request was almost not considered by the other party and nodded in agreement.

Since he agreed to his request, Zhou Xiao's side is easy to do, AZX's branch in China fully participated in the audition of the film, ensuring that the information of every girl who participated in the selection of child actors was sent back to Zhou Xiao, so that Zhou Xiao could put forward his own proposal.

In the end, after more than two months of searching, the girl named Xu Jiao who was among Zhou Xiao's targets was finally found by him and signed a contract with AZX, the requirements of the contract show that after Xiao Xu Jiao completes the filming of "Yangtze River No. 7", she will go to Japan for the most comprehensive child star training and packaging, and not only in terms of acting, including dancing and singing skills, Xu Jiao will receive the most rigorous and complete training, and strive to make this girl a secret weapon for Zhou Xiao's future.

Xu Jiao's storage zài, the official statement is to reserve combat power for AKB in the future, only Zhou Xiao knows that the reserve combat power is true, but it is not necessarily for AKB but is likely to be for SNH, or even not only SNH, maybe Xu Jiao will become the first Chinese to be both AKB and SNH storage zài, and even more likely, she and Li Chun become the best leaders of SNH!

The work of "Yangtze River No. 7" is only a small part of Zhou Xiao's daily work, his main energy is still on filming, in addition to filming, of course, Zhou Xiao occasionally goes to see AKB's performances, and now the B1 performance of Group B has begun, the surprise performance of Group K has also entered the rhythm, and the A4 performance of Group A is about to start. (To be continued......)

PS: In a blink of an eye, there is only the last half month left in 2004, I don't like to open a single chapter, and I rarely ask for a ticket for the code word, it's going to be the New Year, and I recommend a monthly ticket to the horse...... Of course, it's better to have a reward, after all, even if I want a monthly pass or something, I really don't know what to use it for......

Of course, if something big happens in the Japanese entertainment industry, I will also say something, such as entering the end of the year, the record award or something, the red and white song meeting or something, I am looking forward to it~
