Baiyunshan said he knew Daisuke Ono, but he really wasn't just making it up.
With the foundation of Sony Music and the blessing of his own cheap seniors, since he took up his current job, he has met and heard of many current or future celebrities in the entertainment industry. Today's anime voice actors are actually moving in the direction of idol voice actors. Although this is the product of another operating model, it is still worth reference.
It is precisely because of this that Baiyunshan knows more or less some of the well-known voice actors in the industry today, and Daisuke Ono is a rare candidate who has crossed paths several times.
The reason is also very simple. Among the little idols under him, there are many girls who like animation and comics, and among them there is a girl who is very passionate and obsessed with the AGC voice actor circle. She is very fond of well-known male voice actors in the industry. Yes, her name is Ikoma Rina.
Judging from the information he knew, Ikoma-chan is a die-hard fan who can record voice actor San's voice and use it as a wake-up ringtone. Although a certain silly apple also considers himself an old two-dimensional person, he is obviously better than this at this point. A loyal fan is far behind, and as for a certain Hina who even needs to disguise herself in the second dimension, she is even worse.
So for a long time, whenever keywords such as voice actors are mentioned, the first person that pops up in Baiyunshan's mind is the former's Ikoma-chan, who calls himself Yamazato's uncle. He also always thinks that it is unlikely that he will meet someone he likes more than her again. I am a voice actor, but I didn’t expect that I would learn a lot today.
That's right, Baiyunshan finally met a girl today who was comparable to Ikoma Rina.
Seeing the girl named Sasaki Kotoko in front of him, she was so excited that she couldn't speak. She could only cover her mouth with one hand, as if she was about to cry at any time - oh no, she had already cried, and she was crying so hard that she couldn't make a sound. Shan couldn't help but shook his head slightly with a strange look on his face, and sighed in his heart: Ikoma-chan lost!
Yes, in terms of the degree of love shown for the voice actor-san, although Ikoma-chan is already a die-hard fan, the performance of the girl in front of her is obviously still slightly inferior. After all, she is no longer a die-hard fan. , he is simply a fanatical fan! It is so enthusiastic that it even makes people wonder whether the stern, introverted girl just now was suddenly taken away from her. Otherwise, how could she be so excited now——
Even Daisuke Ono, who had seen many excited fans at autograph sessions, was a little at a loss. He didn't expect that the girl in front of him would cry whenever she wanted to, and she was obviously the type who was so excited that she cried with joy. She didn't even have the means to comfort her. No, I had to wait awkwardly for the other person to calm down.
After about a few minutes, the girl gradually calmed down.
Baiyunshan thanked Xiaoye Sang next to him, chatted for a few casual words, and then slowly left the scene with the girl.
"Sasaki-san...can I call you Sasaki-san? Do you really like voice actors that much?"
On the way out, Baiyunshan couldn't help but curiously turned his head and asked the girl next to him.
The girl named Sasaki Kotoko has calmed down, but the red eyes on her face can still show the excitement in her heart. It seems that it is because of Ono-san, and the eyes she glances at Baiyun Mountain at this time also look less focused than before. Feeling a lot of nervousness, he quickly bowed humbly and said: "Just call me Qinzi. I haven't celebrated my birthday yet, so I'm still thirteen years old and a sophomore in middle school——"
"Thirteen years old, a sophomore in middle school?"
Baiyunshan was stunned. Although there weren't many clues from the appearance, weren't they the same age as Xiao Feiniao? Regardless of age or grade, they are all the same, what a coincidence.
"I would like to ask, when is your birthday?" Baiyunshan said cautiously.
Sasaki Kotoko hesitated for a moment, glanced to the side subconsciously, and then saw the special gift she had just received from Ono-san. She pursed her lips slightly and said, "August 28th, what happened?"
"Ah, no."
Baiyunshan shook his head gently, August 28th? He remembered that Xiao Feiniao's birthday was August 10th, so it seemed that it was not a coincidence that he was born on the same day, same month, and same year.
It's just that they are very close in age, and among my little idols, a certain Silly Apple's birthday seems to be August 27th, which is only one day different from the girl in front of me, and she also likes anime, ACG and the like. Yes, thinking about it this way, the two of them should be able to have fun together—
Baiyunshan was walking and thinking deeply. Seeing that he was about to walk out of the store on this floor, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at the other party: "Sasaki...Qinzi, I suddenly have a suggestion to recommend to you. , are you... willing to listen?"
"What's your suggestion?" The girl neither agreed nor vetoed the suggestion. Instead, she felt a little nervous about the other party's sudden attitude and asked in a low voice.
Baiyunshan stared at her for a few seconds, and then said: "Have you heard of Nogizaka46?"
"Nogizaka46?"
Sasaki Kotoko tilted her head and recalled, "Is it the official rival of AKB48? I've seen an advertisement in Honjo City... What's wrong?"
"Would you like to join?"
Baiyunshan said straightforwardly.
"Eh--"
The girl couldn't help being stunned, and it took her a few seconds to react. She stuttered nervously, slightly stiffly: "Well, I, but, as for idols, I don't know-"
"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to make a decision now."
Baiyunshan smiled easily and calmed down the girl's obviously nervous mood. After she calmed down, he continued with gentle words: "I'm just giving you a suggestion. I think your appearance is very suitable for being an idol, eh. ...Although it’s a bit presumptuous to say this, I think you must have met someone similar to a talent scout, right?”
Sasaki Kotoko nodded slightly.
"Of course I'm not a talent scout, but I occasionally do work in this area. I am the manager of the idol group Nogizaka46 I just mentioned to you. This is my business card." Bai Yunshan said, and handed over a Hand the concise business card to the other party. There are only a few lines of words on the palm-sized business card. A purple triangle in the lower right corner symbolizes the meaning of Sakamichi.
"If you are interested, you can sign up next year. Around that time, we will recruit a new batch of second-term students. I think if you go to participate in the selection, there must be a high probability of passing the exam."
Sasaki Kotoko's face rarely showed some emotion, and she whispered unconfidently: "Really? However, I have always felt that I am not good at communicating with others. Idols... It must be a difficult profession, right?”
"It's really not easy."
Baiyunshan nodded lightly, and then a smile appeared in his eyes, and he added: "But I believe that if you can give it a try, the result will be very good, because Nogizaka46, although it is an idol group, is right , but it’s not just an idol group.”
"Not just an idol group..."
The girl looked up at each other blankly.
Bai Yunshan had a smile on his lips. He didn't know whether he found the girl's curious and confused look particularly interesting, or because he suddenly thought of something from what he just said, and a burst of emotion suddenly filled his chest.
Yes, of course this place is not as simple as a simple idol group. This is a gathering place of hard-working and grateful smiles. It carries the youth and beautiful memories of many people. Those children who are still dusty but not yet shining, I can never imagine now how shining they will be in the future, and how touching the name Nogizaka46 will be.
However, thousands of words can only be condensed into one simple sentence.
Baiyunshan's eyes were deep and he smiled meaningfully: "If you have the chance, you will understand it if you come in and experience it for a while in person."
"oh."
Sasaki Kotoko nodded in confusion.
“Hopefully we’ll have a chance to see each other again, preferably next year.”
Baiyunshan said easily, then looked down at his watch, waved his hand and said: "Since there is nothing else, I will leave first. If you are interested in idols, you can try to sign up for our program next year. Recruiting second-generation students, um...if you run into any trouble, you can just report my name, do you understand?"
"Thanks."
"No, then...goodbye."
"goodbye."
The girl stood there obediently and bowed slightly.
After Baiyunshan finished speaking, he slowly left, minding his own business.
However, watching his back gradually go away, Sasaki Kotoko couldn't help but suddenly have confusion in her eyes. She tried hard to think for a while, but still had no clue. She couldn't help but murmured to herself: "By the way, he what do you say that is?"
