Japanese big things

When Masahiro Nakamura, Yasushi Akimoto and others came out of the room together, the girls who participated in the final review had already changed their systems and gathered under the stage to wait for the results to be announced.

Yoshio Konno, who was already ready, quickly walked back to the hosting desk, holding the final review list in his hand.

The girls all turned their attention to the list in Yoshio Konno's hand, and their faces were all filled with nervousness and anxiety.

They either clenched their little hands into fists, or tightly grasped the corners of their skirts, or they crossed their fingers uneasily.

Can you successfully be selected as a formal member of Nogizaka46? The list will be officially announced soon.

"Next, the contestants whose names I have read please come to the stage..."

Yoshio Konno simply said a few witty words, which made the somewhat solemn atmosphere a little lighter.

Then, he glanced around at the girls who were exuding uneasiness, and his playful expressions suddenly softened a lot.

"Ikoma Rina...."

When the first name was confirmed, a pretty girl with short hair walked out of the crowd and quickly stepped onto the stage.

"Ichirai Reina..."

The second girl whose name was confirmed is also a girl with short hair, and her face looks very round.

"Ikuta Erika..."

"Sakurai Reika...."

"Marika Ito...."

More names that passed the final review were read out by Yoshio Konno one by one. As the girls walked onto the stage one after another, the crowd below began to slowly become thinner.

The girls on the stage were relieved, and some even smiled, but those in the audience became more and more uneasy.

The number of candidates who pass the final review is definitely limited. The further you are on the list, the greater the chance of failure.

After Yoshio Konno stopped reading the list, the girls in the audience suddenly looked sad and could only look at the winners on the stage with envy.

Maybe now it's just the difference between on stage and off stage, but it will soon become the difference between idols and amateurs.

"Everyone on stage, please follow me..."

With a kind smile on his face, Yoshio Konno greeted the selected girls to go to another room.

Wait, these girls selected for Nogizaka46 will take some photos and videos for future promotion.

Different from the popular idol group debut model in the Korean entertainment industry, the debut of idol groups in the Japanese entertainment industry is mostly based on the completion of the selection activities.

Once the winner list of the selection event is confirmed, it basically means that the group has officially debuted.

Therefore, various shooting plans and publicity and marketing activities are often carried out quickly.

Although the momentum of the Korean entertainment industry has surpassed that of the Japanese entertainment industry, in terms of planning capabilities and operational experience, the Japanese entertainment industry is the predecessor in this regard.

After all, the reason why the Korean entertainment industry has been able to develop rapidly is that, in addition to the strong support from the government, it relies on its full efforts to imitate the Japanese entertainment industry.

For example, the trainee system that is very popular in Korean entertainment companies is actually copied from the Jr. system of Johnny & Associates.

Many well-known Korean variety shows also plagiarize a large number of Japanese variety shows, and there are too many to mention.

"There shouldn't be any procedures later, right?"

Muramatsu Junliang's voice sounded, and he asked Akimoto Yasushi: "Akimoto-san, if everything is okay, I will take the first step."

"It's okay. Muramatsu-san can leave early if something happens."

Akimoto Yasushi nodded with a smile on his face and responded to Muramatsu Toshiryo very politely.

Muramatsu Toshiryo's attendance was meant to express his stance, just like some of the representatives attending the meeting.

Therefore, after going through the basic process, Muramatsu Toshiro did not want to waste time and continue to stay.

He nodded politely to Nakamura Masahiro and Kitagawa Kenji, then turned around and strode out of the venue.

"Nakamura-san, you don't want to leave, do you?"

Nakamura Masahiro had just had an idea and before he could stop moving, his thoughts were suddenly revealed by Yasushi Akimoto.

"No, Akimoto-san..."

A look of embarrassment flashed across his face, and Nakamura Masahiro flatly denied Akimoto Yasushi's speculation.

"Now that we're all here, we must watch it until the end..."

"Nakamura-san, if you want to leave, I actually don't mind."

Akimoto Yasushi noticed Nakamura Masahiro's insincere words, but he still kept smiling.

"But please don't leave until after the press conference."

"I see."

Nakamura Masahiro immediately understood what Akimoto Yasu meant, so he nodded and expressed understanding.

Although Muramatsu Toshiryo is the representative of Sony Entertainment, he is low-key and not very attractive to media reporters who like to chase hot news.

But Masahiro Nakamura is different. His status as a famous director already has his own halo. The Taiwanese celebration drama "Antarctica" directed by him is also being heavily promoted by TBS TV station.

Although he cannot compare with Takuya Kimura, who is the main publicist, Masahiro Nakamura has still gained a lot of attention due to his handsome appearance.

For media reporters, in a sense, Nakamura Masahiro is more popular with them.

After all, Kimura Takuya is an artist, so he still has to work hard every day.

But Masahiro Nakamura, a famous supervisor, is really a bit of a miraculous person.

Although the publicity campaign is huge, photos, videos and other materials are pitiful.

Most of the various materials that can be found were released by him when he was promoting the movie before.

There are very few interviews of any kind, and she doesn't appear in many variety shows. She is simply an anomaly in the entertainment industry.

The other supervisors who wanted preferential treatment from the media reporters had no chance, but when it came to Nakamura Masahiro, they just ignored them.

In other words, he relies on his ability to make a living. If he were an artist, there would be no such person in the entertainment industry.

After waiting slowly and boredly, the girls, led by Yoshio Konno, quickly returned to the venue to assemble again.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Without waiting for the girls to adjust, Yoshio Konno, under the arrangement of Yasushi Akimoto, announced the list of "tentative members" to be announced.

As sudden as an attack, the girls who were originally in a happy mood suddenly became nervous again.

The tentative list of selected members represents whether they can appear in the camera. For girls who are inspired to become idols, its importance is self-evident.

If they weren't rushing to become an idol and hope to appear in the camera, who would be so active in participating in the selection event?

"Akimoto-san, are you announcing the tentative list of selected members so soon?"

Seeing Yoshio Konno repeating names one after another, Masahiro Nakamura couldn't help but turned his head and asked Akimoto Yasu in a low voice.

Originally, Nakamura Masahiro thought Akimoto Yasushi was going to work on a process or a link, but who knew he would arrange to publish the results so quickly.

The progress is too fast, it's like announcing the debut and releasing an album the next second.

At least we should arrange some foreplay, right? Why don't you release a single to test the waters first?

"There is no shortage of resources, so there is no need to use too many fancy tricks..."

Akimoto Yasu smiled as he watched the girls on the stage showing various emotions: either joy, loss, or sadness.

"This is different from akb48's model. akb48 had no choice at that time."

"Nogizaka46 needs resources and resources, and investment. Of course, it needs to take different routes."

Nakamura Masahiro pursed his lips, and for a moment he didn't know how to continue.

If it were a Korean idol group, then Masahiro Nakamura could casually add a few words of advice.

After all, the debut model in the Korean entertainment industry has almost become an assembly line. As long as you have a little understanding, you can talk about it.

The competition is nothing more than the quality of the songs, the amount of resources, and professional operations.

But in the field of large-scale idol groups in the Japanese entertainment industry, there are really not many people who can play well.

Nakamura Masahiro is very self-aware. He is only an amateur and can only choose to trust Akimoto Yasushi, a professional and authoritative person.

Make money, don’t be shabby!

Being able to make money while lying down is something that many people want but cannot get, so why bother with it?

Masahiro Nakamura participated in the Nogizaka46 project, and his original intention was not to make huge money!

"By the way, Nakamura-san, your movie project should be entering the preparation stage, right?"

As soon as the conversation changed, Yasushi Akimoto asked Nakamura Masahiro about movies.

"That's about it. Preparatory work is already underway..."

Nakamura Masahiro glanced at the smiling Akimoto Yasu and knew that he would not bring up this topic for no reason.

"Akimoto-san, what do you have in mind?"

"It's just a preliminary idea..."

Qiu Yuanyasu slowly reached out and rubbed his chin, looking thoughtful while speaking in a considerate tone.

"I wonder if you can leave some characters for children in your movie."

"It's not a big problem...but it can only be a background role."

Masahiro Nakamura looked up at the girls on the stage, their young faces looking a little confused.

Except for a few older girls such as Nana Hashimoto who could barely fit into the roles of the movie background, the other little girls were not suitable at all.

"Furthermore, you also need to attend an interview... If you are specific, I will make arrangements at that time."

In the entertainment industry, relationships with people are very common, and Nakamura Masahiro is used to it.

Since the girls from Noban 46 are working for him, Nakamura Masahiro should take some care of them.

Of course, this care must be within the relative scope of ability and will not exceed this scope.

"No problem... Anyway, I just need a gimmick..."

Akimoto Yasushi smiled easily and said in a brisk tone: "If we really reuse them now, it will actually harm them."

Yasushi Akimoto is a veteran in the entertainment industry. Of course he understands that Masahiro Nakamura cannot assign important roles to the girls of Noban Board 46.

Therefore, he has no expectations in that regard, he just wants to use the gimmick of appearing in the show to promote it.

After all, those children on stage have no acting experience at all, so it would be great to have a chance to star.

As for if you really want to participate in movies and TV series, you have to wait until you show your acting talent later.

With the famous director Masahiro Nakamura joining the cast, as long as those children have acting talent, there will definitely be no shortage of film and television resources.

Even if there is no opportunity to play the leading role, there will definitely be opportunities to play supporting roles. Maybe the transformation into an actor will be smoother in the future.
