Tokyo, Minato, a fine restaurant.

Like many Tokyo high-end RB dishes, there is no gorgeous appearance or eye-catching signs. Kanda RB dishes are hidden on the first floor of the house in the alley of Yuanmabu. In addition to the 8 seats at the bar, there is also a 6-person box with a faint fir aroma, with elegant wooden interiors, spotlessly clean. The wines here are amazing, top champagne sarug199o and a variety of American worship wines, as well as the best French wines, are all selected by Kanda and the souvenir Hirose Ichimoto.

When he was young, chef Yuki Kanda improved himself and left Paris. He went for five years. He walked out of the framework of RB people drinking wine and RB dishes that integrate the essence of French cuisine. Kanda, who has won the three-star award in Tokyo for many years, represents not only the recognition given by Michelin, but also the nation's persistence in quality and the lifelong craftsman spirit.

Toshi Yuki chose to host Akimoto Yasuki here for a banquet. Soshi Yuki made very careful considerations. First, Akimoto Yasuki is a person who doesn’t like to travel far. He rarely leaves the Hong Kong area, so it is ideal to choose to host him locally in the Hong Kong area. Secondly, according to information, Akimoto Yasuki is a famous foodie. He can be said to have tasted all the food from various countries. Then, choosing this restaurant, a Michelin three-star high-end RB restaurant can maximize his sincerity.

After a half hour in advance, Zong Xue greeted the boss and sat alone in the reservation position.

This is his character. Before talking about important things and meeting important people, he always has to be alone for a while and carefully consider the possible accidents and unexpected situations.

Planning, acting later, being cautious, and doing homework in advance are his consistent principles and style of dealing with things.

Once you start, it will be as fast as the wind, as strong as fire, and as thunder.

After drinking the barley tea, it was filled with it. After repeating it three times, Akimoto Yasumi finally appeared in this small restaurant.

Just like the memory of a technical otakus, Akimoto Yasushi is a fat man wearing black glasses and a black suit. He is not tall but very plump. His short and huge head with a middle part makes his shoulders look very narrow.

It was indeed Fei Qiu. Zong Xue recognized the "father of akB" at a glance. He immediately stood up and greeted him very respectfully: "Teacher Akimoto! You are here."

"Uesugi, have you been busy lately?" Akimoto Yasushi spoke in a very orderly manner. There was a clear pause between each sentence, the voice was not loud, and the tone was very smooth. You could hear from the sound that this was a human spirit.

At that time, he was almost at a loss and was guided by this young man who suddenly appeared. He found RB Dentsu and successfully turned the tables. He always remembered this favor.

In just a few years, the team he led has become a popular group of RB, causing a trend, and Uesugi Soyuki also joined Sony Music and became a senior executive. Akimoto Yasuki couldn't help but sigh that the world is impermanent.

"What am I busy with? Teacher Akimoto, you should be very clear." Uesugi Soyuki picked up a glass of sake: "Please."

"Please." Akimoto Yasushi has been very busy recently, and he has a rare moment of leisure.

Like many restaurants, Kanda offers dishes according to the season, and its summer cuisine is the most distinctive. In order to ensure the level and freshest fish, Kanda cooperates with specific fishermen. When fishermen arrive at Hong Kong, they will immediately notify Kanda of today's catch for him to choose from; the focus is the sashimi, which is lightly roasted in the skin, which is delicate and rich in taste. It can taste two different flavors with wasabi and sea salt.

Another major feature of Kanda is beef. RB wagyu is also divided into many levels, while Kanda uses the filet part of Miyazaki beef. For Kanda, the softness of the filet and the distribution of oil flowers are the most perfect proportion.

"The crispy skin as thin as paper wraps the juicy and tender beef. The instant bite is puffed with soft and tender Wagyu beef, and the slightly spicy taste of water celery tender sprouts seaweed salad is really a top-notch!" Uesugi Soyuki exclaimed.

After a few glasses of sake, Akimoto Yasushi gradually became more and more words: "I have read your plan, and the meaning is very clear. The positioning of this new female idol group ‘Nogizaka 46’ is very clear. I also think it is very good. I promised to be the producer of this group."

Uesugi Soxue felt a little contemptuous. It was obvious that you owe us Sony favors, so she agreed to help. Why did she seem to be moved by our plan now and then agreed to help?

"I didn't expect that Uesugi, you would actually be the person in charge of this group myself." Speaking of this, Akimoto Yasushi seemed to be intriguing.

"That's right, my father likes idols since he was a child. I am also interested in idols. I especially like the kitten club of Akimoto Yasushi. In the past, whether it was Yamaguchi Momoe, or Matsuda Seiko, Nakamori Akina, they all felt that it was too high." Soxue nodded: "So, I want to get to know the idols up close."

If it is influenced by his family since childhood, it is understandable that he will like idols. It is normal for a genius to have some quirks... These thoughts have changed into Akimoto Yasushi's mind.

In other words, out of curiosity about idols, this child wants to participate or even lead an idol group by himself?

Isn’t this coincide with the core view of “an idol that can be met” as I imagined?

Thinking of this, Akimoto Yasuhiro was like eating a bowl of shaved ice in the hot summer, and he felt relieved from head to toe.

What I thought and gained over the years, the recognition of the "old-school newcomer" in mainstream society like Uesugi Soxue is the best proof of his ability.

Since the final failure of the Kitten Club led to the Ice Age of idols, Akimoto Yasuhiro himself has been thinking about why? What happened? It made the Kitten Club become a female idol group that dominated the credibility list for 38 weeks in one year and had to disband due to the sharp decline in viewership and popularity in just over a year?

After years of thinking, Akimoto Yasushi came up with the answer - a sense of difference and a sense of freshness.

The Kitten Club, with Yamaguchi Momoe and other pearls in front of each other, created too many girls' idols in a short period of time, forming an idol's fatigue and began to feel disgusted. It is naturally difficult to ensure quality by only caring about quantity. Although "amateur idols" can bring a short-term freshness, over the long run, the status of "idols" originally had is lower and lower, resulting in the gradual disappearance of the ** who want to see idols and even be idols.

The most important point is that Yasuhisa Akimoto could not help but attack the female idols he created.

After the real situation was exposed by the media one after another, fans were naturally shocked by the fact that there was such a bad shady scene behind the original unattainable and dazzling idols. The huge sense of gap made these originally fanatical fans naturally "turn to black". It is not surprising that these female idols would be finished so quickly.

So now, Akimoto Yasushi has put forward the banner of being an idol that can be met.

The idol group created by Akimoto Yasushi will start from the lowest and lowest level theater, cultivating an image that is close to the people and close to the fan circle, allowing fans to accompany their idols out of the theater, towards the TV station, and towards a higher stage.

The unattainable idols who can only be seen on TV and dVd will put down their figure and get close to their fans. As long as you want and spend a little money, you can get close to your idols. The idols grow with the fans. This is the method Akimoto Yasuhiro summed up after learning the lessons of failure.

This method has led him to success after experiencing countless difficulties.

"There is another thing, Mr. Akimoto, there are still some gaps in the funding for the establishment of this group. You..." Uesugi Soxue looked like she wanted to speak but stopped.

But his eyes were filled with strange light.

Impossible! This is Akimoto Yasuki's first reaction. He knows Uesugi Soxue's strength very well.

Not to mention anything else, the Google stocks held by this young man are worth more than one billion US dollars! Not to mention the Facebook stocks and Twitter stocks he has.

How could he be short of money? Akimoto Yasushi thought he had heard it wrongly.

Akimoto Yasushi's meal slowed down, and he did not answer Uesugi Soyuki's question.

Zong Xue was not in a hurry to force him to express his opinion. He knew that Akimoto Yasuhiro needed time to think.

The melodious wakame music surrounds Uesugi Soyuki and Akimoto Yasuki, and Soyuki even has the time to listen to a short section.

It was not until this beautiful music was painted with a rest that Akimoto Yasushi spoke.

"I understand, how many are missing?"

Akimoto Yasuki understood what he meant, Uesugi Soyuki nodded with a smile: "It's about 200 million or 300 million."

"Yes, I can still get the money."

The two of them laughed at each other, and everything was silent, taking this matter quietly.

In the following time, both of them tacitly did not mention anything about Nogizaka and AKB, but instead changed to other topics.

Whether it is Soseki or Akimoto Yasuki, they belong to the elite class in society. They have a lot to talk about. Akimoto Yasuki's experience of spending decades in the entertainment industry is a treasure house. When facing Uesugi Soseki's sincere attitude, Akimoto Yasuki will naturally not be stingy with giving advice.

During the remaining dinner time, the relationship between these two people is really a bit like that of teachers and students.

After the meal, I walked out of the restaurant. When I was leaving, my hands were tightly held together.

"Thank you very much for enjoying the glory today, Akimoto."

"No, I want to thank Director Uesugi for the invitation. Tonight, it's very pleasant." Akimoto Yasumi's fat round face was filled with smiles.

After a brief farewell, Uesugi Soyuki sat on a black Mercedes-Benz and left here.

Today, AKS sent the AkB Theater Dominant (Manager) Togazaki Togazaki to pick up Akimoto Yasuki. Aks company also attaches great importance to this meeting with Uesugi Soyuki. Togazaki Togazaki is an employee of Shizuka's company Office48 and was sent to assist Akimoto Yasuki to handle the affairs of AkB48 Theater. He came to pick up Akimoto Yasuki, who was also the president of Aks Yasuki Kawada and Shizuka Yukita, who had some meanings to inquire about the news.

"Akimoto-san, the president said that Sony's new director intends to build a new idol group, you today..."

"I agreed." Akimoto Yasushi didn't say much.

He knew that the current AKS was different from before.
Chapter completed!
