"Where's the school?"
"Um...?"
"I mean, where is the school ready to go?"
"Not yet, but after checking some schools, the attendance rates are all in demand, so..."
The Great Condor didn't finish what he said. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional.
"In this way, we will find you a private school. You don't have to worry about your attendance. You can send your scores to Sato later and ask her to hand them over to me. Likewise, we will sponsor part of your tuition." Yoshio Konno's feet under the table were intentional or unintentional The ground shook.
"That...that's really appreciated, thank you."
She was naturally very happy when she heard Yoshio Konno's proposal. Originally, she was still worried about the choice of public schools because the tuition fees at private schools were too expensive. She had saved the money for two years and sent it home. With the money in it, I may only have enough money for one year's tuition.
However, the Great Condor understands one thing very well, that is, the conditions offered by the other party are definitely not the highest price.
"But, Konno-san, you also said that you want to establish an image of a top student in the group, but I can't go to school and can't learn anything. Naturally, I can't miss out on group activities. I have to study high school courses on my own. I think It’s still difficult, you see…”
"..." Yoshio Konno changed his position and took a deep breath. A pair of wrinkled eyes kept scanning the big condor back and forth, as if he was trying to analyze her whole person. "I will help you find a personal trainer and teach online."
"Really? Thank you so much, Konno-san." The Great Condor said happily, "Then, how much is the sponsor you just mentioned for part of my tuition?"
"20%."
Yoshio Konno naturally thought about it early.
"Ah, that's it. I've also learned about the cost of private schools before. It's about more than one million a year. You also know my family's situation. I'm sending money home now, and I don't have much money left. .." The Great Condor's eyes suddenly became lonely, as if he had thought of something sad, "Well, it seems that I can only sell the guzheng that my mother left for me first, and make up for it first... But , thank you Konno-san for paying 20% of the fee for me."
Yoshio Konno narrowed his eyes, even though the Great Condor spoke of herself so pitifully, as if she was happy that Yoshio Konno helped her pay 20% of the money, but the implication was obvious.
To put it too much, only 20%? What about sending beggars away?
Now Yoshio Konno wants to keep the Great Condor, can he let the Great Condor be wronged? Obviously not.
"50%." Yoshio Konno didn't leave much ink and directly gave the bottom-line price in his heart.
The Great Condor was stunned for a moment after hearing such a high quotation. She thought she would have to go through it one more time, but she didn't expect Yoshio Konno to be so cheerful. 50% should be the limit. She is greedy and doesn't want to shoot herself in the face. foot.
"Thank you Konno-san! Don't worry, I won't consider graduation yet. I like everyone in the group very much, and I want to work hard for Nogizaka with everyone."
"Come on."
Yoshio Konno said perfunctorily, but his 'cloudy' eyes that no one else could see through were a little unable to see through the little girl opposite him. How could a 15-year-old girl have such a strong personality? She has now attracted the attention of Yoshio Konno. Of course, it is only attention. In the final analysis, Yoshio Konno is the one who has the say in operations, and the Great Condor is just an idol no matter how much he jumps around.
At this point, the two have reached a tentative agreement.
Okono’s first consideration is an LLC, and she won’t graduate, at least not yet. However, Yoshio Konno LLC will bear 50% of Okono’s tuition and help her find a private tutor, which is similar to a cram school. , because her usual activities definitely don’t have time for her to go to school.
After walking out of the office, Da Shenying felt that the air in the corridor was much fresher.
"well done."
"Um?"
Suddenly, Sato Shizuka said something.
"Now that we know how to fight for our own interests, maybe we can still cooperate."
"..." The Great Condor didn't answer her.
Sato Shizuka, the current situation of the Great Condor is thanks to her gift. The previous film resources were obtained by Sato Shizuka herself for the Great Condor. Her agent also has ambitions, and there are many things that idols cannot control themselves.
For example, the second-generation students that the Great Condor and Hori Mina care about very much. Can the Great Condor alone lift up the second-generation students? No, why?
The members may not know it, but as a manager, and Sato Shizuka is now a relatively high-level manager, she has gradually learned some things about the second-generation students... In fact, people who know the inside story think it is a joke, saying that they are second-generation students. , in fact, it’s just the foundation laid by operations for the future. What foundation? What else could it be, of course UNDER.
Not long after the formation of the group, members have already left the group one after another. Although there are not many people who have quit, the job of operations is to make plans for the future of the group. If this situation continues, in a few years, the people who will select the lineup will definitely be It was enough, but UNDER might have fewer people in the future, and it would be impossible to recruit new people by then, so LLC directly recruited second-term students a year after the group was established.
In other words, the second-term students are, to put it bluntly, UNDER's backup resources. They are recruited to fill UNDER seats that may be vacant in the future.
Sato Shizuka didn't tell the Great Condor these things. She could also see that the Great Condor and Hori Mina wanted to bring up the second-generation students, but as mentioned above, the little idol is just an idol. Whatever the higher-ups ask you to do, you can do it. What to do.
The Great Condor needs a partner to lift the second generation.
However, Shizuka Sato never refuses things that are mutually beneficial.
The Great Condor is being used by Shizuka Sato to climb up, so we can't let the Great Condor get any benefits, right? Now she is just the manager of the Great Condor, but a smart person like her has already thought about where to go.
As for the Great Condor, does she really want to graduate? Don't be kidding, she has money, she can sing, she can dance, she can experience a colorful life while still having money, and she has made a group of good friends. She is a mediocre person. Don't make me too tired, and don't I don’t know how many things will happen after my solo career, but she feels that there will no longer be a friendly environment like Nogizaka.
But after the conversation just now, the Great Shenying also realized that he may have a chance, not to say that he is on an equal footing with the operation, but at least to win a little bit of rights for himself, so that the operation can pay attention to what he said, and what will happen in the future? , if her words can have some effect, she can win some so-called rights for the members.
For example, during yesterday's concert, maybe Shinnai Maya could rest quietly.
She is not only fighting for her own interests, the Great Condor is also fighting for her position in the eyes of the operation, hoping that one day, she can also protect the second-generation students.
