The Wonderful Daily Life of Nogizaka

Chapter Seventy-One: First Anniversary (1)

On February 22nd, it’s finally officially time for Nogizaka46’s first anniversary live show.

Regarding this live, apart from Nogizaka46’s internal staff members and external media, the most concerned people are of course the fans.

It has been one year since their debut, and they have released a total of four singles. They may not be an important player in the entire music circle, but in the idol circle alone, the current Nogizaka46 is different from the one a year ago.

Great changes.

There are many sources of change. In addition to the excellent quality of each single released by itself, even if you are not used to the idol-style songs in it, there are always one or two unique styles in each single that make people shine. Others include

Appearance, variety shows, temperament and personality, and even the handsome style of the recent fourth single "Uniform Doll", which is completely different from the previous one, can all be considered as some of the factors. In the Warring States Period of this idol, it seems that it has already

Gradually we opened up the situation and gained a firm foothold little by little.

Therefore, the number of fans has increased several times compared to a year ago when the single was first released. Excluding fans who simply like music and pay more attention to the music industry, but based on data such as handshake meetings

, it can be found that many of them jumped from the akb camp where they were originally. It is said that they fell in love with each other——

Nowadays, it is impossible for them to miss such a meaningful live. At the Makuhari Messe in Chiba, many people have gradually gathered before the admission was announced, and they were writing the names of the members to each other.

Take photos under the flags, or wait for the venue’s sales area to appear and buy your favorite peripherals.

In addition to the fans mentioned above, there are quite a few people who came here due to someone’s tireless promotion during this period. Perhaps the stickiness is not as strong as the former, but the potential is full. Therefore, tickets and other things are completely

Don’t worry, the potential audience accumulated over such a long time has already determined that the supply of tickets for this live will exceed demand——

Similar to the lively scene outside the stadium, the environment inside the stadium is no less generous.

The final debugging is in progress, and everyone is getting into their positions one after another, reporting on various situations at all times to ensure that there will be no bad accidents during the live.

The rehearsal before the start of the live session has also ended. Since it was the last rehearsal before the official start, this session was a little more detailed and presented many surprises that were not noticed during the previous rehearsals, which was eye-opening.

After the rehearsal, the members disbanded and finally came to the backstage together, nervously but orderly preparing for the start of the live.

The members in the dressing room were preparing the makeup and hairstyle for the next appearance. Since the number of makeup artists was limited, many of them chose to do it themselves. Takayama happily prepared a cat-ear hairstyle for the next appearance.

She shined brightly on her live show, but she didn’t know that this would become one of the dark histories that she was brooding over——

The members who repeatedly memorized the moves walked back and forth in the open field, memorizing them while walking. Members who needed MC, such as Sakurai Ikoma, Hashimoto Shiraishi, etc., also had to consider how to warm up the show and stir up the atmosphere.

We could only discuss it with each other over and over again, and if we really couldn't remember it, we could only write it down on the palm of our hand. It could be said that we never stopped for a moment.

The tense air filled the entire backstage, everyone was in a hurry, and Baiyun Mountain naturally couldn't stop.

After solving various situations in the command and confirming over and over again that there were no mistakes in the subsequent itinerary and arrangement, and only needed to follow the normal procedures, he finally had time to come backstage and meet everyone.

But before he could say a few words, he suddenly saw a familiar figure standing at the door of the backstage passage, looking at him with gentle eyes, and then turned around and walked to a secluded venue aside.

Looking slightly stunned, Bai Yunshan turned around and said a few words of relief to the members around him, asking them not to be too nervous, and then immediately chased after them and called out to them.

"Sakamoto-san——"

The silver-haired man in front of him has a stern face, but his temperament is quite gentle, and he is very charming. Naturally, it is none other than Sakamoto Ryuichi.

The two walked slowly, one behind the other, leaving only a slight distance between them.

"The time has finally come~"

"Yes, the time has finally come."

After a period of silence, the first sentence was finally spoken, but it was a conversation that outsiders could not understand at all.

Sakamoto Ryuichi's gaze remained unchanged, staring at the young man in front of him. There was emotion, helplessness, and relief in his eyes: "I have watched your rehearsal just now. It is indeed very good. There are many ideas that I have seen for the first time.

, it’s really nice to be able to host such a live.”

"It would be really nice to be praised by you, Sakamoto-san."

Baiyunshan answered sincerely.

"Don't say that, I'm here to help you, yes, but I'm also here to cause you trouble -"

Sakamoto Ryuichi said with a smile.

Baiyun Mountain can only smile bitterly.

"However, you have proved your ability in this area. The latest songs are very good, and... the Nogi group, they are a group of very talented children. Even I can't let go-"

Having said this, Sakamoto Ryuichi suddenly fell silent, nodded and said: "I'm very happy that you can achieve such a level, really."

"..."

Baiyunshan didn't know what to say for a moment. While he was hesitating, a pair of hands gently patted his shoulder.

"Don't feel guilty or anything. Since it's your decision, I can only support it, but -"

Sakamoto Ryuichi looked gentle, smiled slightly, and said: "But, can I call you Yunshan? I know that this is your name. Although it was given by your father, since his death, the world should

No one has ever called you that again, just think of me as your tutor for once, okay?"

Baiyunshan was a little dazed, but then he nodded heavily without hesitation.

"Yunshan."

"teacher."

The sound of "teacher" seemed to take him back to his middle age, to that midsummer, when someone somewhat similar to the young man in front of him called him the same way.

Although it was just a private title, he had never announced to the outside world that he had such a student, and the outside world had never known about it. But in his heart, that person had always been his only and most proud student.

Until today, we finally welcomed the second one.

Sakamoto Ryuichi was relieved, smiled gently and nodded silently, seemingly satisfied, and then slowly left here after waving his hands casually.

Only one person was left in Baiyun Mountain, standing alone and silent.

After a while, he gradually came back to his senses, gathered his mood and walked backstage.

Pushing the door open, the members inside had already formed a circle. There were several staff taking charge of filming. There were also a number of main staff gathered around. The entire backstage was almost packed. When I saw him coming back, my eyes immediately opened.

As soon as he lit up, he waved his hands excitedly.

"Baiyun Sang, come here, come here -"

Bai Yunshan smiled and waved his hand, refusing the invitation to participate in the circle formation. Instead, he stood aside and thanked everyone present as the chief director and person in charge. Finally, he bowed deeply and signaled to someone next to him.

The squad leader began to speak.

Sakurai Reika didn't look nervous at all. The usually useless team would always appear extra reliable at such a critical moment. After thinking for a while, she slowly said: "Well... today has come. I believe it's not just me, but everyone present.

All members and staff, including Baiyun-san and Konno-san, pay special attention to and look forward to this live. And we must live up to everyone, including ourselves, and work together to complete this live——"

On the side, team leader Rina Ikoma added: "You may be nervous, or you may feel that you are not doing well enough, but that doesn't matter. The fans in the audience will cheer us on, and so will everyone backstage.

All you need to do is show your best part wholeheartedly, let go of all the pressure, and enjoy this live for the rest of your life!"

"Then... let's begin!"

Sakurai Reika looked around and laughed, and the surrounding members also laughed. The circular formation surrounded by more than thirty people looked so sparkling for the first time.

"Work hard, thank you, smile, we are the uphill slope, Nogizaka 46!!!"
