Not surprisingly, the bet ended with Baiyun Mountain winning.
The girl named Shinuchi Mai was exactly the one he had met last year and helped him by the way. Giving her the business card in the first place was just a matter of whim. It was impossible to be reunited here without feeling a little emotional.
Shinuchi Mai naturally recognized the young man in front of her. She already knew the name Nogizaka46 after a friend introduced it that night, and she also paid attention to the subsequent news intermittently. I just feel that this idol group seems to be really good, and it is eye-catching in every aspect. The only shortcoming is that the debut time is still short, and the accumulation of fame is not enough.
When the news about recruiting second-term students was released, they signed up together with the encouragement of friends. However, for the girls at that time, signing up was just an attempt. It was best if they could pass. Even if they failed, it was not a big deal.
After all, even if he passes, if he joins as a second-generation student at the age of twenty-one, how many years can he be an idol? The golden age of a girl idol today is around the age of twenty-five, which means that she can continue to be a idol for at most four years. The hardships involved are not as easy as finding a job——
But as she stood here now, Shinuchi's thoughts quietly changed drastically, because no one could have imagined that in such a short period of a few months, this idol group would be able to change. I was a little famous before, but suddenly I became famous!
What was originally just an idea to give it a try has now become a crucial step in life. It's hard to describe how it feels.
Especially looking at the young man in front of him, although his appearance is no different from what he remembered that night, but now, thinking of all the rumors and identity about him, Shinuchi Mayi only feels like he is dreaming. . I was still a little distracted until the end of the review session, and finally left the scene following the footsteps of the staff.
"This one should also be able to pass."
After all, gambling is still a pastime, and work must be taken seriously. After confirming that he lost again, Chuan Jingai silently made up his mind to never gamble with a certain guy again, and concentrated on his work.
Looking at the girl's leaving figure, he nodded slightly in approval and said: "In the session just now, I performed quite well in all aspects, and my temperament and personality are also very good. The most important thing is that I am old enough. Maybe it is a bit late to become an idol, but Among the second-year students who generally sign up at a relatively young age, it’s just right~”
"Second-generation students should indeed have a sister. If appropriate, they can be trained as immediate combat power——"
Baiyunshan agrees with him. In fact, the current Nogizaka46, who can really attract fans and be famous enough, must belong to the sister group.
Among them, the Yusan family composed of three girls from a certain mayonnaise star is a typical example. This kind of instant combat power is needed at any time. Although it is contrary to the rough diamond theory of a certain cheap senior, it does not matter. There are problems that need to be solved in each period. It is obviously not objective enough to judge based on the successful experience of the same period.
"I just don't know how the others are...Bai Sang, how many people do you think will pass this final review?"
Chuan Jingai turned to look at him.
"Are there any hard and fast rules? For example, clearly stipulate how many second-year students must be recruited?"
"That's not true, but it can't be too much or too little. It has to be appropriate. Too much will definitely have an impact on the current environment for first-year students. If it's too little, it will be a drop in the bucket. Such a high-profile selection event is completely There’s no point anymore——”
"I understand, about ten or so."
Baiyunshan nodded.
The next girl is Ayane Suzuki from Akita. To be honest, this girl is the most surprised one in Baiyun Mountain so far. Because he could more or less guess that the previous ones would come to sign up, but this... Baiyunshan really didn't expect that——
After all, when he went to Akita to promote, although he had communicated with him, he did not recommend the other party to sign up for the second generation, and he did not even see that the other party would sign up for the idol. I still vaguely remember that the little girl at that time seemed to be more interested in airplanes, and she was tricked into buying a dictionary——
Therefore, when I saw the girl in front of me with a short bob haircut, wearing a bud yellow skirt and a white top, nervously appearing on the stage, I felt a little weird. I am always a little worried. If Mr. Suzuki, with whom I had a good relationship at the beginning, knew that I might be his daughter's manager in the future, would he be regarded as someone who beat his daughter early in the morning? Got an idea?
Huh...thinking about it this way, wouldn't it be possible for me to be treated as a perverted lolita? No, no, no -
Compared to someone who was in a weird mood, Suzuki Ayane, who was only fourteen years old and could still be considered a little girl, was much calmer.
This aspect is not only related to her frequent reading and the quiet personality she has developed, but more importantly, when she met someone in Akita, she already knew that the other person's identity must be unusual.
So even though the other party appeared at the judging table, the girl was only surprised for a moment. She quickly suppressed her inner uneasiness, smiled, and began to introduce herself.
The result was as expected. Even just looking at her appearance, Suzuki Ayane, who was only fourteen years old, was already a living beauty. Although I have been in the country for a long time, I don't see much rusticity. This is probably related to my love of reading. The bookishness washes away the rusticity caused by the environment, making the whole person appear delicate and smart, not much different from Kotoko Sasaki in front of me.
The Q&A exchange was also in an orderly manner. Although due to nervousness, I still stumbled unconsciously when speaking, and the hand holding the microphone was slightly white, but my cute little gestures when I was thinking and nervous had already impressed someone sitting in the seat.
"If such a beauty is polished for a few more years, she will be a proper literary girl again when she is about the same age as Nanamin when she entered Nogizaka——"
Baiyunshan secretly appreciated it.
So it was no surprise that, regardless of whether Mr. Suzuki might suspect that he had already set his sights on his daughter, he silently checked the box on the list beside him.
After passing several girls whose qualifications were slightly inferior to those before, it was finally the turn of the last selector of the morning, Rena Yamazaki, who was only fifteen years old.
This person is also an old acquaintance. When they met, his eyes lit up, and then he bowed respectfully. It was obvious that he was very nervous and excited. Baiyunshan first met her because of his idol Sayuri Inoue, and a series of things and misunderstandings happened. Fortunately, nothing major happened in the end. It was a perfect ending, except that Higuchi Hina’s father kicked her in the face——
The other party participated in the selection of the second generation students. This was also information that Baiyunshan had learned a long time ago. Although she was a bit unattractive in appearance, she was slightly at a disadvantage compared to several girls in front of her. But after all, they had known each other for a long time, participated in the first-term student selection, and their conversational temperament was indeed good, so Baiyunshan was still quite hesitant.
Especially with the characteristic of long hands and long legs, as long as you dance with proper teaching and practice, you will definitely have very good senses. In addition...
Thinking of this, Baiyunshan couldn't help but glance at the information, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
In addition, there seem to be too many scumbag Baga in the list that has been confirmed so far. Judging from the information, Yamazaki is obviously a top academic. Although he is just about to enter high school, in the future, as long as he works hard, it will not be a problem to get into a good university——
Having such a person in the team, especially among the second-generation students, has only advantages and no disadvantages...
With certainty in his heart, Baiyunshan no longer hesitated and also decided on the candidate.
The final review in the morning was over. During the break, I had a meal with Chuan Jingai and exchanged some opinions with the young idols who were curious about the review situation. After that, the afternoon soon came.
There were much more people in the afternoon than in the morning, but it seemed that all luck had run out. Although there were many more people throughout the afternoon, the quality was far inferior to what was seen in the morning. It took a whole afternoon until the final review was completed before Baiyun Mountain finally decided on two candidates.
They also met before, but these two met at a handshake meeting. One was named Sagara Iori and the other was Ito Junna. He was very satisfied with everything. In addition, he was already in I had met him at the handshake meeting and was familiar with him to a certain extent, so I felt very at ease.
The two girls were visibly excited when they saw him, but they were not surprised. After all, they were also fans. It was impossible for them not to know the recent news about Nogizaka46. It is definitely clear that the highly anticipated one-year anniversary live and the series of explosive news that followed, coupled with the movie "Rurouni Kenshin" that finally became a hit in the circle, will appear in the judging panel after so many additions. Being the examiner of this final review does not seem to be a surprise——
However, when they thought that the staff they met by chance at the handshake event was actually the only descendant of Ryuichi Sakamoto, the leading actor in a popular movie today, the two girls felt no less sad than the girls in front of them——
Finally, after all the final reviews, the results of today’s busy day are finally out.
The list of Nogizaka46 second-generation students was determined in a discussion led by Baiyunshan. After repeated consideration, eleven girls were decided as the second-generation students selected for this final review.
The eleven people are: Karin Ito, Junna Ito, Hinako Kitano, Iori Sagara, Kotoko Sasaki, Makoto Shinuchi, Ayone Suzuki, Ranyo Terada, Mina Hori, Reina Yamazaki, and Ai Watanabe.
The second generation of Nogizaka46 is officially confirmed!
