[Japanese entertainment and Korean entertainment] Top

The next day was Sunday, which happened to be convenient for all those who participated in the selection.Somesaki Sakura and her mother arrived in Akihabara a little earlier than the agreed time. When they arrived, most of the people who participated in the selection had already arrived. This time, there were more than 7000 people participating in the selection. There are only 45 of them.

Looking at these 45 people, and then thinking about the fact that there were only seven people in the last period of the future generations, the feeling is really indescribable.

At this time, Sakura Somesaki felt a little nervous. It was a blessing to stand out from the crowd of more than 7000 people, but it might not be easy to stand out from the crowd of 45 people again.

Somesaki's mother seemed to feel her daughter's nervousness, and couldn't help cheering her daughter up: "Our Sakura-chan is the best, and we will definitely pass the selection." Somesaki Sakura gave her mother a smile, and began to look around because of the tension.

45 people sat quietly in their respective positions, some came alone, and some were accompanied by their parents. Although they were still immature little girls at this time, we could also see similarities with the future.In her previous life, Somezaki Sakura didn't know much about AKB48, she just knew the honor of this group and some super popular members, but this was enough for her to recognize a few familiar faces.

For example, the tallest, tall, and powerful girls not far away are Mari Shinoda, one of the super popular members of AKB48 in the previous life, and Kususu Takahashi, who is very petite on the other side, and the indispensable chief supervisor of AKB4 later.Seeing the youthful appearance of these people, Somesaki Sakura can hardly connect the glamorous and beautiful women of later generations with the present. AKB is indeed a place to train people, and it is also a place where rough jade can be carved into bright jade.

Somesaki Sakura is looking at others, but she doesn't know that she is also the object of attention. Among these people, Somesaki Sakura's appearance is too eye-catching.And from her attire and temperament, it can be seen that her background and education must be very good. Such a person will be the focus of attention no matter where she goes.Because of this, many girls at the scene began to recognize each other quietly, but out of such and such thoughts, no one dared to go forward and talk to Sakura Somesaki.

It doesn't matter to Somezaki Sakura, who has lived for decades, is it possible that he still cares about these little girls?

There are 45 people, and the number plate Somesaki Sakura got is in the middle, so she will have to wait for a while before she can enter.Seeing the expressions of the little girls who went in and out one by one, Somesaki Sakura felt a little bit drummed, and she didn't know if the selection was difficult or not.

Time is not fast or slow, and finally, when it came to Somesaki Sakura's order, she took a deep breath, walked in and stood in the middle of the room, glanced at the few people sitting in front of her, and confirmed that except Yasushi Akihara and Toga She doesn't know anyone other than Saki Zhixin (AKB48's general ruler, as Akihara Yasushi's assistant and a job similar to an executive officer).She calmed down her nervous heartbeat a little bit, and introduced herself——

"My name is Sakura Somesaki, I'm 13 years old, and I'm from Tokyo."

Seeing such a beautiful little girl coming in, Akihara Yasushi and all the staff were stunned for a moment. They knew there was a beautiful little girl when they passed the preliminary selection, but they didn't expect to be so beautiful——Sent by Sakura Somesaki The passport photos are posted on the list.This appearance completely exceeded their expectations. Walking outside is completely at the level of being discovered by scouts. As long as she thinks, some firms are willing to train her, so she would not come to participate in such a selection.

Akihara Yasushi looked at the information in his hand, and was a little surprised when he saw the family, and asked, "Are you not Japanese?"

Somesaki Sakura nodded: "My father is Korean-American, I am also American, and my mother is Japanese." Speaking of this, her palms were a little sweaty. For so many days, the only thing she worried about was this. The showbiz is a relatively exclusive place, Yasushi Akihara

It is very likely that she will be brushed off because of this.

However, AKB is not an artist who has no nationality in other countries. Later, Yasushi Akihara developed AKB to other countries. From this point of view, he himself should not be very repulsed by this point.

With such a mentality, Somesaki Sakura was worried for a long time, and she didn't feel relieved until she received the notice of the primary election. She thought that she had passed this point, but she didn't expect Yasushi Akihara to ask at this time.During the primary election, everyone only briefly glanced at the personal information such as the applicant's photo and age, but paid little attention to the family information.Therefore, Yasushi Akihara had the second surprise today.

After hearing Somesaki Sakura's answer, Akihara Yasushi did not continue to ask, but let Somesaki Sakura perform the show he prepared.This time, Somezaki Sakura is preparing Koda Mirai's hit single "Butterfly" released in June this year. In his previous life, this song won the Japan Record Awards that year.

When he heard the prelude, Yasushi Akihara was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Sakura Somesaki to choose this song. Koda Mirai's image has always been sexy, and her songs also have this style more or less. It is not an easy task for a girl aged [-] to sing such a song well, and it is not a good entry song for the selection.

However, it is also possible that the song was chosen because of a cult of personality. Yasushi Akihara, who listened to it with such a mentality, was amazed when Somezaki Sakura spoke.The expressions of the surrounding staff were also a little amazed. A girl of this age has not yet experienced the voice change period, and her voice is so immature and pure. Such a voice is suitable for singing certain songs, but not suitable for certain songs.

This song "Butterfly" was originally not suitable for children's voice, but it was sung by Somesaki Sakura's sweet voice, which has some other charms. Compared with the sexy and hot love sung by Koda Mirai, Somesaki Sakura It sang the girl's shy but firm first love.This performance made all the staff shine.

However, Akihara Yasushi's expression was a little heavy, and there were several teachers who also had the same expression as him.It’s not that Somesaki Sakura is not good, but she is so good, so good that Akihara Yasushi seems to see those flawless superstars created by various agencies. Somesaki Sakura has the potential to become a superstar, but she may not have Akihara The kind of quality Kang hoped for.

Yasushi Akihara, who once built the top idol group Kitten Club, now thinks that the akb48 he wants to build should be a group composed of all "amateurs". Created, when they become professional entertainers, that is when they graduate from akb.

What AKB needs is a fresh, unforged jade, not a polished pearl.If it wasn't for Somesaki Sakura's resume that clearly stated that this was the first time Somesaki Sakura stepped into the entertainment industry, he would have thought that she was a girl who debuted as a child star.

And the other principals who understand Akihara Yasushi's thoughts, although they admire Somesaki Sakura very much, have great doubts about whether she fits the theme of AKB's selection this time.

After the song was over, Somesaki Sakura took a little breath and looked at the selection staff sitting in front. The smiles on the faces of most of the staff made her feel a little more elated, but when her eyes fell on Yasushi Akihara Her heart became tense again, and Akihara Yasushi's frown clearly expressed his will.

Yasushi Akihara was silent for a moment before asking, "What kind of person do you want to be in the future?"

"Actress! I want to be a top actress." Hearing this question, Somesaki Sakura answered without hesitation.Somezaki Sakura's eyes lit up when she mentioned her dream.

Yasushi Akihara seemed a little touched, and asked again: "Why do you want to join AKB?"

This question kept Somesaki Sakura silent for a moment, she couldn't answer because I knew AKB would be very popular, right? !After a while, she

Only then supported the microphone and said: "For the sake of my dream, I must realize my dream." When she said this, she kept looking into Akihara Yasushi's eyes with a very firm expression.

Yasushi Akihara nodded, without saying anything else, the staff said with a wink, "Please wait outside for an announcement." Somezaki Sakura nodded, her original confidence was almost lost by Yasushi Akihara's performance at this time, sitting down Outside, the mood is also very uneasy.

In the end, all the interviews were over. The people inside were discussing the approval list, and the girls outside got together because of nervousness, discussing their interview situations with each other, just to gain a little confidence.

Indoors, other lists have been finalized, except for Somesaki Sakura, there is a dispute over the selection judges.Akihara Yasushi walked to the door and turned around because of his distress. He accidentally looked up and saw the scene in the room, and saw Somesaki Sakura sitting in a corner at a glance.

Unlike other girls, Somesaki Sakura has no one around her except her mother. Her mother is talking to another adult, and the girl sitting next to her seems to have gone to another place to talk to someone. Go, on such an occasion, Somesaki Sakura's lonely figure seemed extremely abrupt.

At this moment, Yasushi Qiuyuan suddenly had a certain feeling, and this feeling made him make up his mind.

After waiting for a long time, the staff came out to announce the pass list, 45 people finally passed 25, Somezaki Sakura survived one by one, until at the end, she heard her name, at that moment, she seemed to lose all her strength , the whole person depends on the mother

body.Somesaki's mother seemed even more excited than her daughter: "Sakura-chan, you have been selected!"

Somesaki Sakura was also very excited and joyful at this time. She showed a big smile to her mother. The original image of a calm and self-sufficient girl completely collapsed at this moment. Akihara Yasushi who was not far away saw it, and a smile appeared on her face. smile.

Years later, someone interviewed Yasushi Akihara: "Why did you choose Sakura Somesaki? Was it because you saw her superstar potential?"

Yasushi Akihara shook his head. Looking back at the beginning, he smiled as if he couldn't believe it, and said, "To be honest, I was very contradictory at the time. That child was so outstanding that I hesitated to let her join AKB." Is it a good thing or not, but later, one thing made me change my decision."

"What's the matter?" The reporter was very curious.

"Perhaps, it's the child's persistence in his dream." Akihara Yasushi said with a smile.In fact, he never knew what AKB could bring to that child, and what that child could bring to AKB, so he hesitated, but after seeing the scene in the room, he realized that there is one thing , is what this child needs, and what AKB happens to be able to give.

This, perhaps, is what this child can bring to AKB.
