Reborn Japan for entertainment

Chapter 387 Three Candidates (Happy Valentine's Day)
Although AKS is about to relocate its members in order to alleviate the huge financial pressure, the status of the relocated members is still not finalized.

In order not to cause panic among the AKB girls, AKS operations are tight-lipped about this matter.

The content of this meeting is only known to the operational members present.

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who has a big nail nailed inside the AKS, also learned of the news of the transfer immediately after the meeting. . .

"Is it emigration?"

After hanging up Chiba Masaki's phone call, Sakamoto Kiyoshi muttered.

After Chiba Masaki's explanation, Sakamoto Kiyoshi is also the general situation of this "transfer".

"In this way, although I can't prevent the entire AKB from leaving, I can take this opportunity to sign the most potential member of AKB to Sony?!"

"Although it is a bit difficult to sign the members you want among the four major firms, if Sony makes a move, it should be possible to snatch them from other firms!"

Thinking of this, in Kiyoshi Sakamoto's mind, three people who will be the best and most popular in the future in the AKB group emerged.

AKB immovable ACE, Atsuko Maeda!
AKB Next Generation ACE, Mayu Watanabe!
AKB's future overlord, Shihara Rino!
"Yoxi! These are the three!"

After setting the goal in his heart, Kiyoshi Sakamoto immediately set off to Sony to convince the man who controlled everything.

. . .

Sony headquarters.

President's room.

"You mean, Akimoto Yasushi is ready to hold in his hands, and the managers of AKB members will sign outside to other firms?"

Naoki Kitagawa, who was sitting on the office chair, was also a little surprised in his tone.

"That's right, Masaki told me that, and the news is completely accurate."

"Moreover, according to what Masaki said, AKS is already negotiating the list of members headed by Ota, Watanabe, Ogi, and HORIPRO, so, I think, even if we give up the entire AKB, we can still Sign potential members among them to the company."

"In this way, even if AKB is reborn in the future, we can have the power to influence AKB by controlling its core members."

Sakamoto Kiyoshi suggested with a serious face.

"Mr. Qing, I know that you have great confidence in Akimoto Yasushi and AKB, but I don't think that Akimoto Yasushi's move can save AKB that is on the verge of dissolution."

However, Naoki Kitagawa still felt that Kiyoshi Sakamoto's suggestion was just a desperate effort by Kiyoshi Sakamoto to prevent AKB from leaving Sony.

However, seeing the seriousness on Sakamoto Kiyoshi's face, Kitagawa Naoki felt that he had rejected Sakamoto Kiyoshi's suggestion last time, and if he refused this time, Sakamoto Kiyoshi might be upset.

After all, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is Sony's leading artist, so he still has to give him some face.

Thinking of this, Naoki Kitagawa, who is proficient in the way of Yuxia, secretly said in his heart, "Anyway, I'm signing a few insignificant artists, so let him go..."

In the end, Kitagawa Naoki agreed to Sakamoto Kiyoshi's request after pondering for a moment under Sakamoto Kiyoshi's expectant eyes.

"Um..."

"However, since you feel that there are potential talents in AKB, Sony welcomes potential talents at any time. How about this, you make a list of members you want to sign, and then go to President Saito to discuss Let's talk about the signing."

"Thank you very much!" Sakamoto Qingteng stood up from his seat and bowed seriously.

"Well, but in the end, limit the number of people to five people." Naoki Kitagawa added the last sentence, still afraid of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, accidentally listed a list with the names of all the names of the entire AKB.

"I see!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who came out of the president's office, suddenly clenched his right fist, like a football player after scoring a goal, with an excited expression, and punched the air.

"Great!"

. . .

After a little excitement, Sakamoto calmed down, sat in a taxi heading to SMA, and began to think about how to sign the few people he wanted.

"Referring to Hara Rino, the future AKB overlord, although the road to rise seems a bit too long, and Sony's variety show resources are not as rich as Ota's, and they can't continue to push her on variety shows like in the previous life, but, Sony just needs such a talent with great potential in variety shows..."

"At most, after signing Zhiyuan, let's just throw Sony's variety show resources on her..."

"I don't believe that, with Suo Dae's terrifying resources, she can't become a big star in variety shows?!"

"As for Watanabe Mayu, this little friend Mayuyou may be the closest to the word "idol" among the three."

"This little sister from 94 can be said to be the most perfect representative of an orthodox idol. She is a rare person who can cater to the preferences of mainstream culture and two-dimensional culture at the same time, and is also a CG girl."

"Her existence strongly complements AKB's appeal to idol otaku and anime otaku, and at the same time, it will not destroy the mainstream culture's acceptance of AKB. This is an extremely important role for AKB and an irreplaceable one. "

"It is also possible to take the actress route in the future, and after Nogizaka is established, as one of AKB Shenqi, she can also become the senior of Nogizaka members and teach them some knowledge about idols."

"After all, cheese is power... Ahem, knowledge is power!"

Huh, let out a breath, Kiyoshi Sakamoto touched the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, "I almost said the wrong line..."

"Referring to Hara Rino and Watanabe Mayu, it's not too difficult to sign."

In 2008, Rino Shihara was only a graduate student of the fifth period; while Mayu Watanabe, a third-term student, was regarded as the future of the next era even though she entered AKB.

However, in the situation where AKB itself is difficult to protect, in the future, this is the least valuable word.

Therefore, the signing of these two people can be said to be very simple.

The point is, Atsuko Maeda.

"A-chan, Yasushi Akimoto has long regarded him as the core of AKB, the immovable ACE, such a member must be the prey that other agencies are eyeing, it is really difficult to get out of the fire..."

While thinking about this, the taxi also came to SMA in Shinagawa Ward.

As a subsidiary company of Sony Music's singers, actors, voice actors and other artists, even though it is under the banner of Sony Music, SMA can be said to be an unknown rookie in the brokerage firm.

Although he has management contracts with top singers such as Ken Hirai, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, Rainbow Band, etc., among these people, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is the only one who can contribute to Sony in addition to the music world.

In the entire SMA, the only famous actor is Kiyoshi Sakamoto. . .

This is also impossible.

After all, Sony Music is a record company that mainly focuses on music. Even if it has a brokerage subsidiary SMA, it is only established for the convenience of signing brokerage contracts with its singers.

Therefore, it is also understandable that when Sakamoto Kiyoshi, an all-round artist with great potential in music and acting, appeared, how precious Sony was to him.

It's like holding him in the palm of your hand. . .

And Kiyoshi Sakamoto also lived up to expectations and became a star that attracted much attention in the music and movie circles.

This undoubtedly made Sony Music support him even more.

From the moment he walked into SMA, the staff greeted him with a smile on his face. It can be seen that his popularity and status within Sony is even more popular than many directors.

On the way to the president's office, Kiyoshi Sakamoto seemed to have gone through a long red carpet. The SMA staff, like his fans, kept saying hello to him. . .

It is precisely because of this that Kiyoshi Sakamoto took a journey that only takes a few minutes and walked for 10 minutes.

. . .

SMA President's Office.

"Yo! Isn't this our Sakamoto-kun? It's been a long time!" Saito Tsuyoshi, who had known Sakamoto Kiyoshi's arrival from his secretary, said with a smile.

This boss is a middle-aged man who is a few years older than Naoki Kitagawa.

Compared with Kitagawa Naoki's majestic temperament, this SMA president doesn't feel like him at all. The president who is in charge of all the artist brokerage appointments under Sony Music is like the leisurely uncle next door who likes to walk birds. Chatting with you kindly, joking around.

"Long time no see, Uncle Saito!" Sakamoto Kiyoshi wanted to relax even more in front of Saito Go.

"Why are you so free to come to SMA today? Did you come to visit that little fellow Nonen again?" Saito Tsuyoshi joked.

"No, today I came to talk to you about something important, but how is Rena? Didn't cause you any trouble?" Leaning on the sofa, Kiyoshi Sakamoto also asked doubtfully.

"No, she has a new playmate recently, so she is very peaceful." Saito Tsuyoshi said to Sakamoto Kiyoshi with a smile like an uncle who dotes on his own children.

"Huh? Playmate?"

"Well, it should be last month."

"Our company's scout met a little girl on Takeshita Street who was shopping with her mother. She also had a celebrity appearance, so she signed it." Saidou Tsuyoshi said from the desktop covered with documents , found a photo.

"promise."

Handed it to Sakamoto Kiyoshi, who took it, also looked at the photo in his hand with a curious face.

In the photo, a little girl with long hair and a very magical, how should I put it, a world-weary face came into Kiyoshi Sakamoto's eyes.

"Huh? Why is it so familiar?"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who knew a little about the Japanese entertainment industry in his previous life, muttered to the little girl in the photo.

This face seemed to have been seen somewhere before. . .

"what is her name?"

"Komatsu Nana."

"Eh?!!"

　What about votes?Comrades, it's Valentine's Day, let's count the votes!
