Shiki and Ryan sat on Nanaya's left and right. From their clothes and appearance, they showed the two extreme expressions of Eastern and Western beauties.
Ryan's clothes are a red silk long-sleeved jacket with a white lace dress lining, and black high-heeled shoes on his feet.
Although this dress sets off her figure well, it also looks a bit plain and gives people a very clean feeling.
The only jewelry Ryan wore was a pair of earrings Nanaya gave her on New Year's Day.
Don't get me wrong, this pair of earrings was given by Nanaya.
But in fact, it was Shion who selected them and distributed them to everyone. Basically, every girl who stayed at the Kiryu family during the New Year had one.
As for why Ryan wears these earrings...
Naturally, it was Lily's idea again.
"Sister, you are going to pretend to be a couple, so you should at least look like a couple, right? Don't these earrings just show your identity?"
Although it was thanks to Lily's sweet talk that Ryan put on the earrings.
But it must be said that this pair of earrings embellished with red gems complements Ryan's white jade skin very well and is really eye-catching.
Compared with Ryan, his style of dress is much more low-key.
Or maybe the character she played, Ori, was just so low-key. Apart from the unchanging black kimono, she had no extra decorations on her body. She was even cleaner than Ryan.
Ryan's clothes at least showed off her large breasts and tiny waist.
And the kimono style...
Although it can't be called a bucket, it feels pretty close.
If it weren't for that delicate and beautiful face, a character dressed like this would definitely be a UR if put in a pay-to-win mobile game.
But no matter how low-key these two sisters dress, the fact that they appear in public together with Nanaya Kiryu is in itself a natural news item.
No matter how surprised the media reporters at the scene were, Nanaya showed no expression. It might be better to say that this was the effect he wanted.
If I really want to say it, it's just like what Shion said, using Ryan and style to hype up popularity.
Well, even though this is a bit unfair to Miss Ryan, she has already been tricked by her sister, so it's okay to take advantage of her a little bit, right?
Thinking of this, Nanaya and Akimoto Yasushi, who was sitting one seat away from them, raised their hands to signal.
Akimoto Yasushi nodded, and then he officially announced that the selection of new members for Trier could begin.
Soon, the first girl to participate in the final review walked into the venue.
"Hello everyone!"
This candidate number one is obviously a lively and athletic girl, but I don't know if her light brown sunburned skin is caused by makeup or is really the result of sun exposure.
However, she was dressed quite simply, even with light makeup, and only used a little foundation on her cheeks to cover her freckles.
After taking a look at the girl, Nanaya lowered his head and looked at the information about her in his hand.
According to the previous Trier reviewer, the reason for shortlisting this girl is that her athletic attributes may be popular with European and American audiences, and the freckles on her face may also be a plus.
While Nanaya was still looking at the information about the girl on the stage, Akimoto had already started talking.
"Please introduce yourself first."
Although this was the first time for him to be reviewed by a large team like Trier, Akimoto had already participated in events like idol auditions countless times.
For Akimoto, the selection process and how to judge whether a girl can become an idol are as easy as eating and drinking.
"Hello everyone, I'm Harumi Kirihime from Shizuoka Prefecture. I'm 17 years old and my hobby is playing hockey."
··
Regarding the selection of new members for Trier, Nanaya just sat there from beginning to end. Apart from checking the information and comparing the girls on the stage with the materials in his hand, he didn't do anything else.
He looked like a robot with no inner fluctuations.
If Nanaya's name tag hadn't been hanging in front of his desk, everyone would probably think that this guy had just come in from nowhere to make up the numbers.
Even the Trier operations representative who was not there for show was more responsible than Nanaya. After all, he would occasionally ask some questions to the girls awaiting trial on the stage.
However, Nanaya did not feel embarrassed, after all, this was not something he was good at.
If he could still say a thing or two about idol management based on his memory, then when it comes to idol selection he really knows nothing.
The main reviewer of the entire final selection process from beginning to end was only Akimoto, and the others were really just accompanying the prince to study.
Apart from occasionally saying a sentence or two to make his presence felt, he is like an invisible person the rest of the time.
But Nanaya still had great confidence in Fatty Aki. After all, what happened in his previous life proved that this fat guy was worthy of praise for more than just his weight.
In the field of idols, Yasushi Akimoto possesses a special ability to discern and very keen insight.
If I really have to use a person as an analogy, Nanaya thinks this fat guy is definitely the second generation of the idol world.
Although it is definitely not possible for this fat guy to become an idol himself - this is nonsense, who would like to see a grown man who has abandoned the superficial unit of kilograms singing and dancing on the stage?
The prank shows are another matter.
When it comes to selecting and educating idols, it would be hard to find another person in the world who is as good as Fatty Aki.
Although we cannot say that Fatty Aki is always successful, the number and proportion of idols who have succeeded under Fatty Aki are astonishing.
If we really want to say who is better than Akimoto in the idol business, it is probably the G family next door who makes male idols.
Making idols is like buying lottery tickets. Generally speaking, as long as one of them becomes very popular, it will be a very profitable business.
However, the probability of becoming a big star is as despairing as the lottery.
Although people outside say that Nanaya has a good vision.
But family members know their own affairs.
Nanaya has the ultimate cheat of being a time traveler, while Yasushi relies on his real ability.
Privately, Nanaya also consulted Akimoto for advice, and secretly tried to judge the girls on the stage during the final review.
Unfortunately, Nanaya eventually discovered that he did not have Akimoto's talent.
Time passed quickly, and just when Nanaya was struggling to find his idol talent, several girls had already completed the selection.
It can be said that the entire final review became Akimoto's territory. Although the protagonists were the girls who were being judged, they were basically Akimoto's puppets.
After each girl came on stage, she first introduced herself, then performed a talent show, and finally answered Akimoto's questions.
Then it's the next one's turn.
Although it sounds simple, the execution is a bit messy.
Most of the girls were so nervous that Nanaya didn't know whether they made mistakes because of nervousness or if that was just their normal level.
There are many reasons for this situation. In addition to the countless cameras pointed at them behind the judges' seats, the judges' scrutinizing eyes are also a major source of pressure for them.
Except for Yumi-chan, these girls need to treat everyone else with extreme caution.
Trier's support operations and Tohsaka Rin are considered half of the team's management. If they officially become a member of Trier, they will be their own direct leaders.
It's impossible not to be nervous.
Not to mention Akimoto and Nanaya, their levels are so high that the girls can't even look up at them.
But in fact, the greatest pressure felt by the girls came from the two generals on the left and right of Nanaya - Ryougi Shiki and Ryan Wetting.
Ryougi Shiki's faint smile looks kind, but you can't guess what she is smiling at.
Is it because I performed well that I was encouraged?
Or did you do so badly that you laughed at yourself?
This smile, which can be interpreted in any way, drives many girls who love to think about it crazy.
As for Ryan,
No matter how the girls on the stage performed, she always had a very serious expression with her mouth corners slightly drooping, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
To many girls who lack self-confidence, this is simply like saying "You performed badly, get off the stage now."
In fact, everyone who is familiar with Ryan knows that, except when she is with her own people, she always has this expression when she is working.
But this gaze from the Lion King was so scary that some girls were so frightened that they didn't even dare to raise their heads. This shows how powerful this big sister is.
If this were placed in the world of pirates, Ryan's domineering Haki would at least be at the level of the Four Emperors.
Compared to these monsters, the timid Yumi-chan at the edge can really be said to be a harmless little white rabbit.
However, Nanaya most hopes that Yumi is someone who can bring pressure to these female candidates.
After all, Yumi is the third generation of the Trier team chosen by Nanaya, and will be the captain after Rin graduates.
But seeing Yumi-chan's current state, Nanaya is really worried about whether she can lead the team well in the future.
[I always feel that some candidates have more aura than her, a formal member. ]
Nanaya scratched his hair helplessly.
Apart from this, the final selection of new members is still quite interesting in Nanaya's opinion.
After all, watching all kinds of girls perform on the stage and then get embarrassed because of various accidents at least makes people feel happy.
The premise is that you look at this selection as a show.
Nanaya even saw several girls who would become AKB members in the future, and they were all performing very hard on the stage.
Then he was brushed down by Akimoto.
There is no way around this. After all, Trier's starting point is very high, and members must ensure a certain level of combat effectiveness.
AKB's model of slow growth and careful training is not suitable for Trier.
Akimoto herself also said that if it was AKB's final review meeting, these girls might have been selected.
But the standard is too high, and so far no girl has passed it.
Only occasionally a few are labeled as Trier students - if there are not enough people for the selection this time, these few will be used to make up the number.
But if no miracle happens, these girls will basically be destined to be foot-washing maids.
[Will it end up with nothing? ]
Just when Nanaya was feeling a little helpless about this final election, a girl who interested him a little finally came on stage.
