Chapter 18

—————The last update for today, tomorrow is another workday——————

14-year-old Kawanishi Chimi secretly wiped away her tears.

The Akiyama Saki beside her gently hugged her.

Ohsima Yuko gently rubbed her own thighs, knowing that this was just the beginning...

If she didn't do proper muscle stretching, it would be easy to get injured.

She glanced at the younger Hayaumi Kaoru, Okada Makoto, and Ono Eriko.

These three kids didn't understand some basic protective measures.

"Okada, Ono, Hayaumi... don't just lie there, do some simple movements... to keep your bodies from getting cold. You're young... it's easy to get injured." Ohsima Yuko came to the side of the three girls and said softly.

The three girls nodded obediently after hearing this.

Natsuzawa Mayumi had been coldly observing the various states of the second-generation girls from the side.

"There's a child named Masuyama Kaminano in the first generation, who is younger than most of you... She persisted in training for three hours without shedding a single tear... Look at you..."

The girls felt a surge of intense frustration and anger at Natsuzawa Mayumi's cold words.

Natsuzawa Mayumi smiled coldly....

Children, this is just the beginning...

In the next month, I will let you know what devil training is...

...

Snow Brand Milk Products Group is a very famous food company in the area. Founded in 1925, it mainly produces powdered milk, sausages, etc. Before the 21st century, it was always the leading enterprise in the country. However, in 2000, a famous food poisoning incident occurred, with over 10,000 users suffering from food poisoning. The Snow Brand problem milk caused sustained panic in the country, and the head of Snow Brand Milk Products had to resign in apology. That year, Snow Brand Milk Products Company experienced its first loss, with a total loss of 47.5 billion yen. After that, due to public boycotts, the Snow Brand milk business did not improve the following year, and related subsidiaries had to close in apology. Snow Brand Company no longer operated the milk business. The credibility that Snow Brand Milk Products had accumulated over 70 years was thus completely destroyed. Although Snow Brand fell, the victims' pursuit of Snow Brand Milk Products did not end. Surrounding the compensation issues of the Snow Brand incident, the victims launched a series of rights protection actions.

Finally, under social pressure, Snow Brand dissolved its food industry.

In recent years, due to rapid economic development, Snow Brand Company has gradually recovered its strength. Their ambitions have also begun to stir, wanting to restore their glory. However, due to their notorious reputation, few artists were willing to associate with them.

In this situation, they set their sights on the emerging AKB48, hoping to use AKB48's appeal to otaku to boost consumption.

But the management firmly rejected Snow Brand's olive branch.

Are you kidding? AKB is still very fragile. If it were to associate with this notorious company...

It might as well dissolve directly.

However, the head of Snow Brand did not give up and turned to Kawanaka Hane.

Kawanaka Hane was somewhat indecisive. Snow Brand's new sincerity was very strong, and the initial offer was very tempting; but there was one bad point, their reputation was really bad.

For the current Hoshino Tomomi, she was in the early stage of development... There could be no mistakes, especially no scandals. Once she was associated with a company like Snow Brand, Hoshino Tomomi's career could be ruined!

"Never mind, that child has it hard... For such a small benefit, to ruin that child's future... it's not worth it." Kawanaka Hane shook his head and casually threw the fax in his hand into the trash can.

...................................

In Akihabara, Kawanaka Hane once again sought out Akiyama Yasushi for help.

"Mr. Akiyama, I want to cooperate with you?"

"Cooperate?" Akiyama Yasushi looked at Kawanaka Hane in surprise.

"Yes, a cooperation that would benefit AKB?"

"Tell me more..."

"I have invested in a social networking site in the United States, which is the popular Facebook... and I have also obtained the right to promote it in the Asian region..."

"Oh, what do you want to do?" Akiyama Yasushi's eyes flashed with surprise, not realizing that this guy had become a shareholder of a foreign company and seemed to be highly trusted.

"I hope to sign a contract with AKB48, have AKB members register accounts, and post their lives and training status on Facebook."

Akiyama Yasushi frowned, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

Kawanaka Hane did not interrupt Akiyama Yasushi, waiting for his consideration... After all, AKB48 was an idol group with various concerns and unstable factors.

"Why not let Hoshino open an account alone? You are her agent."

"I don't want her to become a target, she is still a child... and if only she opens an account, it will not only be detrimental to her personal development but also an unstable factor for AKB48."

"So you want to drag the entire AKB48 into it?"

Kawanaka Hane laughed dryly, trying to cover up his embarrassment.

"Of course, once signed with Facebook, AKB48 will become the main spokesperson for Facebook in the Asian region." Kawanaka Hane added another condition.

Akiyama Yasushi pondered for a few seconds.

"I will discuss it with others... What do you think?"

"Of course, that's fine."

After Kawanaka Hane left, Akiyama Yasushi quickly gathered Hukazaki Tomonobu, Yashiro Hiroshi, and others to discuss the cooperation with Facebook.

Regarding cooperation with Kawanaka Hane, Yashiro Hiroshi firmly opposed it, while Hukazaki Tomonobu chose to cautiously cooperate with Facebook.

The two argued in the small meeting, each expressing their own views... In the end, Akiyama Yasushi discussed with the president of AKS, Kudata Yasushi, over the phone and made the final decision.

AKB48's management would open a Facebook account to post information about AKB and related products; future performances, concert information, and member selection information would also be posted there.

AKB48 members would open their own Facebook accounts, but the content posted must be supervised by their agents or approved by management.

At the same time, after the A group's performance, Hukazaki Tomonobu would announce this news to the members.

However, a sudden incident made all of this vanish into thin air.
