Chapter 28 Outbreak

After Atsushi Maeda sent the bigbang album, Sakura Somesaki also began to pay attention to the development of the bigbang sky group intentionally or unintentionally. After paying attention, I realized that bigbang has officially debuted in Japan for nearly a year, and it has been released at the beginning of the year. The first Japanese mini-album was released, and now the third mini-album is about to be released.

Although the album released by bigbang is still in Korean, Japanese fans seem to welcome such a powerful boy group like them. Now, bigbang also has a lot of popularity in Japan. Now the Korean Wave is a meteor in Japan. Their development It is also considered smooth.

For bigbang, Somesaki Sakura only pays attention to them occasionally, knows some general things about them, and occasionally likes to listen to their songs, but she doesn't worship them as much as Atsushi Maeda.Somezaki Sakura is so busy with her own affairs that she really doesn't have the energy to pursue stars.

"Red Line" was finished in mid-August, and Sakura Somesaki didn't even have time to catch her breath, so she rushed directly from the film crew to the TV drama "Atsuhime".Seeing her entering the group, the director waved his hand, without saying a word, he was taken directly to put on makeup, and after putting on the makeup, she came out

Come on, after a brief talk about the play, the filming will officially start.

Fortunately, Somesaki Sakura's skills are there. Except for the fact that the director called out a few times at the beginning because he hadn't completely switched from the role of "Red Line", the subsequent scenes went on relatively smoothly, and the director also Nodding in satisfaction, she felt that it was a good decision to choose her.

While Somezaki Sakura was busy filming, good news finally came from akb, who had been unlucky for nearly a year.

At the last ske48 concert for the first time, not only announced the good news of ske48's establishment, but also announced the good news that AKB will release a new single in October.

After Akb terminated his contract with DefSTARRecords, he finally found a new record publishing company KingRecords.After eight months, akb finally released a new CD. As soon as the news was announced, not only the members, but also all akb fans cheered and were very happy.

At the same time, the news that Takahashi Nan and the others will form a spin-off group has also been officially announced, and announced that they will officially release a single in November, and the group name will be "nosleeves", or no11b for short.It is intended to take off the uniform and perform in front of everyone with sleeveless clothing, which is also different from the way AKB has always performed in uniform.

On October 10, AKB's tenth single "Loud Diamond" was officially released. This single carried the hopes and dreams of the members for a year, and the straightforward lyrics and hearty tune also made AKB feel gloomy for so long. Swept away.

However, to everyone's surprise, among the selection members for this single, there is an unexpected member, a member of ske48, Matsui Jurina.What is even more unexpected is that this single, Atsushi Maeda did not act as the center alone, but adopted a double C approach, and the other center was Jurina Matsui.

Even the cover of the single was replaced with a photo of Atsushi Maeda, which was originally prepared, and a photo of Jurina Matsui.

Matsui Jurina is the child who was praised by Yasushi Akihara as the "Ruan Shi". As a new member, she was directly appointed as the center of the new single when she was hardly popular. It is impossible not to let other members Feel jealous.Moreover, at this time, Matsui Jurina was only 11 years old.

The fans were also very surprised when they got the new single, they had never heard of this member’s name, even ske was just a new group that had just started, and the CD cover of only Matsui Jurina made the fans dissatisfied .

"Why does akb48's song have to be centered by ske members?"

"Why not the other members who have worked so hard for so long?"

"What can such a small child do?"

The hard work of Akb members has been seen by the fans, so they will complain about these members, if Atsushi Maeda is replaced by

Another popular member, they won't have a problem, but why such a kid?In addition, there is another point that makes fans dissatisfied, that is, there is no Somesaki Sakura in this single.

Due to the filming of the two dramas "Red Line" and "Atsuhime", Somesaki Sakura's schedule was too tight. The office had hesitated for a long time whether to ask Somesaki Sakura to take time off to record a new single. In the end, it was still Somesaki Sakura, who was in the crew of "Atsuhime", decided to give up the recording of this single and concentrate on filming.

No director would like an actor who always runs out and doesn't concentrate on filming. Although this single is important, it doesn't mean that it can't be done without Somesaki Sakura.After the release of the single, Somesaki Sakura felt very guilty about the fan's complaints, and specially recorded an apology VCR and hung it on akb's official website. In this way, although some people were still dissatisfied, most of them also expressed their understanding.

In any case, Yasushi Akihara's goal of promoting ske has been achieved, and the popularity of AKB, perhaps suppressed for a long time, finally broke out at this moment.

In the end, the sales volume of "Loud Diamond" directly exceeded [-] copies. Compared with all previous singles that sold [-] to [-] copies, the sales volume of this single can be described as a leap forward.Moreover, this single peaked at No. [-] on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart, breaking the previous record of No. [-] set by a single.

It can be said that akb has made a beautiful turnaround with this single, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has been brought back to life.The excellent sales made many people start to notice this large group with constant negative news in the first half of the year. At this time, the popularity of akb began to rise sharply.

When the popularity of AKB continued to rise, the popularity of Somezaki Sakura also erupted like a volcano.

Since her debut in "Atsuhime" at the end of August, the outside world has never stopped talking about Sakura Somesaki.And the palace played by Somesaki Sakura has been praised by most people since his first appearance in the TV series.After that, with the development of the plot, more and more people expressed their love for the role of Kazumiya, and more and more people began to support Sakura Somesaki.

The ratings of "Atsuhime" have not been low, and the ratings have been rising steadily after He Gong appeared on the stage. When it was about the episode where Du Ji and He Gong joined forces to make Ooku dissolve peacefully, the ratings even approached 30%. In the end, "Du Ji" ended perfectly with the last episode that aired for more than one hour.

The average audience rating of "Atsuhime" is 24.5%, which is the highest audience rating of a Dahe drama since the 21st century, and it is also the first in the history of a Daga drama with the background of the end of the Bakumatsu.It also set a record that after "Hideyoshi" in 1996, the audience ratings of all 50 episodes were above 20%, and the first episode was rebroadcast simultaneously for the first time in history.

The popularity of "Du Ji" boosted the popularity of the actors, and Gong Qikui immediately became a top artist, and was commented by many media as the most active figure in 2008.At the same time, she also directly won the highest honor award in the TV circle - the Yinhe Award Individual Award with "Tu Ji", and also won the Best Actress Award of multiple awards.

However, Gong Qikui is not the one whose popularity has risen the fastest.Before playing Du Ji, Gong Qikui was already considered a first-class entertainer among the younger generation of actors. Her previous foundation is there, and no matter how much she can improve, it is still limited.Somezaki Sakura is the most profitable in this TV series.

Although she didn't get as many honors as Gong Qikui, her rise in popularity has been real. Finally, she is not as well-known as before. In fact, most of them are just fans of passers-by. At this time, she finally He has established a solid foundation in the entertainment industry.

Moreover, with the TV series "Tu Ji", her acting skills have finally been affirmed by the public. The mainstream media have expressed optimism about her prospects. shining star".

Although this kind of benefit is not as confident as a specific grand prize, the intangible benefits are real.At least, the endorsements that are delivered to your door at this time are no longer those small companies and small brands that used to be.

Somezaki Sakura's explosion of popularity is not limited to "Atsuhime". When the TV series was booming, "Red Line" was released with overwhelming publicity momentum.

As a movie that should become famous on its own, it already gained a lot of popularity before it was released.And Fuji TV is determined to make "Red Line" popular this time, and the effort it has spent on publicity can be described as frightening.There is also Somesaki Sakura, the main character who is at the center of the topic.

Acting as a gimmick, in the end, the box office of "Red Line" really did not disappoint.

Although it is said to be compared with "Love in the Sky", the TV station really never thought that "Red Line" could finally win the box office like "Love in the Sky". The success of "Love in the Sky" was unexpected. When Japanese pure love movies were lacking, it turned out to win the crown. Now it is different. Pure love movies abound. Although "Red Line" has a foundation, it is definitely not "Love" Empty" as exaggerated.

Finally, the box office of "Red Line" is of course not as good as Liankong, but it also makes the TV station extremely satisfied. The box office of 20 billion yen is 1.6 million RMB. Big hair.In the end, in addition to the actor's remuneration for Somesaki Sakura, the TV station also generously gave Somesaki Sakura a generous red envelope. When Somesaki Sakura got it, she was also very happy.

A "Atsuhime", a "Red Line", the double combination of TV dramas and movies undoubtedly made Somesaki Sakura a big winner at the end of 08, and also became one of the popular characters in 08.At this time, no one will be unfamiliar with the name of Somesaki Sakura on the streets of Japan. This year, Somesaki Sakura and akb have achieved a win-win situation.

The author has something to say: 08 has finally passed, and in 09, AKB will start to explode!

In other words, in the first election in 09, what ranking should we Sakura-chan get?

Also, 09 has come, can Brother Long be far behind?
