From the first meeting until now, Fujiwara Nao has followed her promise perfectly, clearing all obstacles for Hayato Minato to do things outside. At the same time, she has also given him unparalleled trust and has helped him in many big and small matters. As long as Mizuna Hayato can come up with a relatively reasonable reason, she will agree.
Mizuna Hayato also lived up to her trust, whether it was his own development or the various suggestions he gave to Stargaze including contracted actors, not to mention several subsidiary companies whose market value was increasing day by day.
From the very beginning when he was picked up by the eldest lady on the road and grew up eating her resources, now, Mizuna Hayato can say that he has the confidence to get along with the eldest lady on a relatively equal footing.
However, the eldest lady never meant to be condescending to him. On the contrary, she would occasionally be fooled by Mizuna Hayato. Perhaps it was because of the complementary relationship between the two that they were able to get to where they are today smoothly.
Thinking of this, Hayato Minazin couldn't help but look at Nao Fujiwara with emotion: "It has to be the two of us."
"What are you talking about?" Fujiwara Nao was confused, wondering what kind of illness this guy had.
"Oh, I didn't mean that we were made for each other." Hayato explained.
"???" Fujiwara Nao subconsciously showed a disgusted expression.
"This word doesn't seem right...wait a minute, what's your expression?"
"I don't want to be born with you." Fujiwara Nao replied.
"No, that's not what I meant. I just want to express my gratitude to you. Haven't we cooperated very well in the past few years? Our career has been booming and the company has grown day by day. Now we are planning to raise a large idol group..."
Minato Hayato explained for a long time, and suddenly remembered that he was the one being disliked. Why was he so anxious to explain that he didn't mean that? What's the difference between this and the guy who uses "joking" to get through after failing to express his feelings?
"You, forget it, I won't tell you anymore, let's go." After finishing speaking, Mizuna Hayato walked forward with the information in his hand.
Looking at the leaving figure of Hayato Minakami, Fujiwara Nao was stunned for a moment, and then smiled after a long time. He thought of every detail of the two of them getting along in the past few years, and how many good friends and even brothers in the past and present had broken up their cooperation and eventually died without contact, like It's rare for them to maintain a tacit understanding like this and everything goes smoothly.
The way they get along is special. In other words, neither one of them would be the same.
Fujiwara Nao quickened her pace to catch up, her pace becoming more brisk.
Just as I caught up with Mizuna Hayato and came behind him, I vaguely heard his voice mumbling:
"This one is pretty cute, this one seems pretty good too..."
While he was looking through Nogizaka's information, the smile on Fujiwara Nao's face gradually disappeared and her steps slowed down.
...
Arriving at a hall that had been prepared in advance, the stage in the middle had been set up. There were four seats in a row in front of the stage, with the names of Nao Fujiwara, Hayato Minakami, Yasushi Akimoto and Yoshio Konno written on them.
It is worth mentioning that there seems to be an overt or covert power struggle going on at Sony Music. Some people have even set their sights on this yet-to-be-established idol group. In terms of position, there is a person named Muramatsu who has been clamoring for Sony Music. There should be one more seat.
But the eldest lady doesn't care about so many, "either one or zero" was her answer.
Nogizaka46 has been preparing so far, and everything is almost completed. It is not impossible to get rid of Sony Music at this time, but it is more uncomfortable for Sony Music. In the end, they still spoke to higher management, which directly angered the eldest lady. The guy was transferred away and can no longer reach here.
Back at the venue, behind the "judges" were rows of chairs, on which were reporters holding long guns and cannons, with the names of their respective news newspapers hanging on their chests.
At the same time, there is a circle of cameras surrounding it, and they are running. One of them is a live camera at Station S, and the rest are used for shooting behind-the-scenes and documentary materials.
This is the scene where the final selected members of Nogizaka46 were announced. There was no one on the stage, and the candidates were still waiting for the official start time backstage.
Mizuna Hayato and Fujiwara Nao walked into the venue one after another, and the reporters who were already seated paid them attention.
Many junior reporters subconsciously picked up their cameras, but were stopped by the seniors next to them and pointed at the eldest lady with a cold face. In the end, no one filmed their entrance.
Mizuna Hayato was originally walking in front, but as he was walking, he was suddenly bumped into by Fujiwara Nao behind him, knocking him out of position. He looked at her back as she stepped hard on her high heels and felt confused.
"Are you angry? Why? Is it because I entered the scene before her?"
After thinking about it, he felt that it was impossible. Although the eldest lady was the eldest lady and the big boss, she did not have those bad habits of being a face-saving person. She also had resignation operations such as "the boss picks up the food and I transfer the table", and Mizunami Hayato was not without it. She did, she never cared much about it.
Don't tell me, the eldest lady's "hitting someone with the ball" still hurts a little.
Mizuna Hayato rubbed his arms, silently came to his seat and sat down, and then said to Fujiwara Nao next to him: "Miss, you can hit me, but next time don't hit me crookedly, come at me head-on!"
Fujiwara Nao looked at him inexplicably. She had never heard such a request in her life.
On the other hand, Mizunami Hayato looked upright and confident, and it was impossible to tell that he had rehearsed in his mind the scenario of the eldest lady bumping into him "frontally".
Interrupted by Hayato Minakami, Nao Fujiwara forgot what she was angry about just now. When she was wondering if he was teasing her again with words she didn't understand, the other two "judges" had already entered the room. Field.
These two were not treated as well as the eldest lady. They were flashed by flashlights as they walked over. Yasushi Akimoto, the "godfather of AKB" who was in his prime, was given special attention.
It is said that at this time in 2011, AKB was close to its peak in all aspects, and AKB Group sister groups in various places had either been established or were getting ready to go. At the same time, new and old groups such as Momoiro Clover Z, Morning Musume, etc. are also active. With the powerful alliance between Sony Music and Stargaze, Nogizaka46 has attracted a lot of attention and expectations. Many media have used " The name "Idol Warring States Period" is used to call this era.
In this "Idol Warring States Period", whether Nogizaka46 can stand out depends on the young girls who will take the stage next.
The announcement of the final members was the first thing tonight. As the representative, Mizuna Hayato picked up the list in his hand.
