Chapter 727 Mai Shiraishi and Her Friends

"center..."

"Shiraishi Mai!"

"The above is Nogizaka's first single, everyone who entered the selection!"

When the MC of "Where is Nogizaka" uttered this cruel sentence, the 16 girls standing in the studio all burst into tears.

What's more, weep with joy. . .

At the same time, the girls who were sitting in the waiting room and couldn't hear their names were showing their faces.

Face ashen, weeping bitterly, life has nothing to love. . .

In the silent lounge, various expressions appeared on the faces of this group of girls who were collectively named "Losers".

In the picture, the atmosphere in the lounge is in stark contrast to the atmosphere in the studio.

At this moment, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was holding his arms across his chest, was standing in the studio, looking at the girls hugging each other with tears streaming down their faces, he also showed a relieved expression.

"Finally, is it time to start..."

This is in a studio of TV Asahi.

From the "banana man" and the girls of Nogizaka in the camera, we can know that the program that is going on now is the recording site of "Where is Nogizaka" every week!
At the recording site of the program, the proposal of announcing the single selection list was proposed by Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

As the only channel for Nogizaka to meet fans and audiences, the program "Where is Nogizaka" is the most suitable place to do things.

My own program, and it is still in the "ally" TV Asahi, many projects that are not suitable for other programs can be presented to the audience here.

It's like the live broadcast of the single selection list will become one of the features of the program "Where is Nogizaka".

Major announcements about Nogizaka will be announced here as soon as possible.

In this way, the audience can see the truest reactions of the girls, as well as the interweaving of laughter and tears.

For the audience, it is of great help to understand the real side of these girls.

The first time, though, is always impressive. . .

. . . . . .

Without warning, the girls go through a brutal ordeal.

Among the 29 people, 16 people were selected and became the selected members of the debut single!

Some people are happy and some are sad. No matter how the girls pray in their hearts and hope that they can become one of the 16 people, the final selection list is still released.

Center, there is no dark horse or unexpected candidate, but it is not surprising.

Even the candidates for the Seven Lucky Gods have not changed in any way.

That's right, considering the popularity and fame in the early stage, as well as the appointment of Kiyoshi Sakamoto, a 19-year-old super beautiful girl from Gunma Prefecture, Mai Shiraishi, has undoubtedly become the first generation center of Sony's new idol girl group, Nogizaka46 !

And the seven people standing in the front represent the "Seven Gods of Good Luck" on the front of Nogizaka, which is exactly the same as the Seven Gods of Fortune identified two months ago!
Mai Shiraishi, Nanami Hashimoto, Sayori Matsumura, Rina Ikoma, Erika Ikuta, Nanase Nishino, Minami Hoshino!

These seven people constitute the strongest seven people for their debut single!
There are Shiraishi Mai + Hashimoto Nanami + Matsumura Sayori who are called "Gosanjia" by fans, and there are also three big loli called "Shengshengxing", Ikoma Rina + Ikuta Erika + Hoshino Minami, plus The previous "Notuan's Girlfriend" Nishino Nanase.

Such a lineup is almost the strongest lineup for Nogizaka in the early stage!
Kiyoshi Sakamoto also considered that during the period when AKB was at its peak, if the strongest lineup of Nogizaka was not used to make the sales of debut singles higher, then, shout out the slogan "AKB Official Rival", It will become a big joke.

Although it will still be rubbed hard by AKB on the ground, but it won't be so ugly. . .

After all, the initial sales of AKB's singles have been continuously released since "Everyday, カチューシャ", achieving a great achievement of one million sales.

Even if Nogizaka has Sony as a backer and the blessing of Sakamoto Kiyoshi, a topical figure, in today's bleak physical CD market background, the debut single can sell 20 yuan, which is already very good.

20 is compared with others' millions, so how dare you say "opponent".

Therefore, even if it is an increase of tens of thousands of copies, Sakamoto Kiyoshi is trying his best to use the means at his disposal, hoping to increase the sales of Nogizaka's singles to a certain level.

Taking out the strongest seven in Nogizaka is also one of the methods.

However, seeing the girls crying and hugging together in the studio at this time, Chiba Masaki standing next to Kiyoshi Sakamoto, felt a little distressed.

"Although the announcement process was a bit cruel, I have to say that the effect of this kind of program is still very good."

As he said that, Masaki Chiba also turned his head and looked beside him. Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who had a calm face, suddenly seemed to see a figure of a fat man wearing black-rimmed glasses.

He turned his head again and looked at the center appointed by Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

At this time, Mai Shiraishi, who was chosen as the center, suppressed tears while comforting Sayuri Matsumura who was crying to tears beside her with red eyes.

Seeing this, the uneasiness in Chiba Masaki's heart also dissipated a little.

At least, Mai Shiraishi has much more support for those around her than Atsuko Maeda did in the early days.

In fact, when deciding on the candidates for the center, Chiba Masaki once suggested that Erika Ikuta or Rina Ikoma be the center of Nogizaka.

Having learned a lot from Akimoto Yasushi, he also seems to feel that a person in the center position should not be too dazzling or stand out.

If Mai Shiraishi is chosen as a girl, it will only block the light of others, which is not conducive to the development of the entire group.

Even, it is not impossible to become "Mai Shiraishi of Nogizaka" or "Mai Shiraishi and her friends".

After all, the example of Suzuki Airi and ℃-ute is also a lesson from the past. . .

Therefore, like Akimoto Yasushi, he took a fancy to Ikoma Rina, a girl who was around the average in everything.

And Ikuta Erika is his plan B.

However, under Sakamoto Kiyoshi's explanation, he reluctantly accepted this decision.

Now, it seems, he's beginning to believe it.

Maybe Shiraishi Mai as the center will be more in line with the group's concept of "instant combat power" than Ikoma Rina as the center.

Thinking of this, when Chiba Masaki looked at Sakamoto Kiyoshi again, he found that there was nothing similar to Akimoto Yasushi in that man!
At this time, he suddenly understood.

"Sakamoto Kiyoshi, not Akimoto Yasushi!"

"And Nogizaka, it won't be AKB either!"
