Entertaining Children

Chapter 767 No Plan to Participate

? After arriving at Temple Street, Xiao Yao was still in high spirits. He bought snacks at roadside stalls and bargained with the stall owner for some gadgets, having a great time. After visiting Temple Street, the two had dinner at the restaurant in Temple Street. After eating, Xiao Yao took Yang Shiyun for a walk on the streets of Yau Ma Tei.

Since Xiao Yao’s work and rest schedule was very regular when he was instructing them on the show last year, and they were strictly forbidden to stay up late, Yang Shiyun just thought that Xiao Yao’s living habits were good, and taking a walk after meals was just his living habit. In fact, Xiao Yao walked on the streets of Yau Ma Tei for two consecutive days, in fact, he wanted to see if there were young and Dangerous boys on the street. Of course, Xiao Yao would never tell Yang Shiyun about such a stupid behavior, Yang Shiyun would never have thought of it anyway.

But unfortunately, Xiao Yao failed to fulfill his wish for two days. The uniformed police officers patrolling the road had seen it before, but Young and Dangerous hadn't seen any of them.

Temple Street came again because I didn’t finish my shopping yesterday. For other places like Causeway Bay, Wanchai, Central, and Lan Kwai Fong that I visited yesterday, Xiao Yao is not interested in going again. So after strolling around Yau Ma Tei, Xiao Yao asked Yang Shiyun to send him back to the hotel.

When leaving, Xiao Yao just told Yang Shiyun that the arrangement and soundtrack of "Wedding Invitation Street" had been prepared, and asked her to go back at night to familiarize herself with it and prepare for tomorrow's recording. As for writing another song for Yang Shiyun in two different language versions, Xiao Yao didn't tell her that he planned to surprise her again tomorrow.

In the morning of the next day, Xiao Yao returned to his room before waiting for Yang Shiyun who came to pick him up from YH Company. Instead, he waited for an employee from his studio to come first.

The conditions and requirements that Xiao Yao cared about had already been mentioned to Xu Wenxiang, and Xu Wenxiang also agreed. In fact, there is not much room for negotiation in the contract. But after all, it is a formal contract text, and it is impossible for Xiao Yao to sign it without reading it, and he didn't want to spend time reading the terms of the contract one by one, so he asked the company's professionals to help him read it. Yesterday Xiao Yao called Fang Yiran and said that he would sell songs to YH Company. This person was obviously sent by Fang Yiran to help him negotiate the contract.

After giving the staff a brief explanation, Xiao Yao saw that Yang Shiyun hadn't come yet, so he called Xu Wenxiang. After learning that Xu Wenxiang had arrived at the company, Xiao Yao didn't wait for Yang Shiyun to pick her up, and sent her a message telling her to go directly to the company, and then took a taxi to YH Company with the studio staff.

Arrived at YH Company, and explained the purpose of coming to the front desk receptionist. Xu Wenxiang, who had received a call from Xiao Yao before, came out to greet him with a smile.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Xiao Yao introduced the employees around him to Xu Wenxiang, and the next step was to discuss and sign the contract.

Xiao Yao handed over the matter of the contract to the employees of the studio, and he did not intend to participate in it. At this time, Yang Shiyun hadn't come yet, and Xu Wenxiang wanted to personally participate in the contract negotiation. Xiao Yao asked Xu Wenxiang to send someone to take him to the recording studio he used yesterday.

Continue working on the soundtrack for the second song written yesterday.

When Xiao Yao had just completed the soundtrack of the second song, there was a knock on the door of the control room of the recording studio, and then it was gently pushed open.

"Senior?" A head poked out from outside the door, it was Yang Shiyun.

When she saw Xiao Yao stood up from the chair and turned to look at her, Yang Shiyun screamed, pushed open the door and rushed in and gave Xiao Yao a big hug. From her excited look, Xiao Yao guessed that she should have known from Xu Wenxiang that he wrote another song for her. Because after Yang Shiyun rushed in, Xiao Yao saw Xu Wenxiang and the employee in charge of negotiating the contract in his studio also followed in.

"Okay, okay!" Xu Wenxiang smiled and gave Yang Shiyun a hand, "Let your senior finish the business first!"

"Boss, the contract has been negotiated, do you want to take a look!" After Yang Shiyun let go of Xiao Yao embarrassedly, the employee in charge of negotiating the contract at Xiao Yao's studio stepped forward and handed over the two contracts in his hand .

Ordinary employees in the studio are no different from Yi Yi. After agreeing on the content of the contract, Xiao Yao has to confirm and sign it.

"No problem!" Xiao Yao took the contract and flipped through it, looked at the places he cared about, and signed the contract with satisfaction.

"Li Zhi, I called you to Hong Kong Island for a business trip. It's hard work!" Xiao Yao handed back the signed contract, "I have nothing else to do here. If you don't have any other important work in hand, don't be in a hurry Hurry back today. It’s rare to come to Hong Kong Island once, just play in Hong Kong Island for a day, and then go back tomorrow, the board and lodging company will reimburse you, just tell Yiran that I said it!”

"Thank you boss!" The employee named Li Zhi immediately agreed with a smile. After receiving the signed contract from Xiao Yao, he gave one copy to Xu Wenxiang who was beside him, carefully put the other copy in his briefcase, and left.

"Senior, Mr. Xu said that you wrote another song for me yesterday, and you also wrote the lyrics in Cantonese and English. Let me see what it looks like!" Seeing Xiao Yao's studio staff leave After leaving, Yang Shiyun couldn't wait to tell Xiao Yao.

"What's the rush?" Xiao Yao smiled, "The soundtracks for the two songs are already done, and they are all yours. You can't escape. You record "Wedding Invitation Street" first, and "Wedding Invitation Street" is not recorded, so I won't I’ll show you another song, lest you think too much and affect your recording state.”

"Did you finish the soundtrack of the second song so quickly?" Xu Wenxiang raised a contract in Yang's hand and said with a smile, "It seems that you asked someone to negotiate the contract for you to save time and be yourself. things."

"You need people to use them!" Xiao Yao smiled, "Otherwise why open a studio and hire people!"

"Senior," Yang Shiyun pouted, "If you don't show it to me, I've been thinking about what the other song is like. Don't I think too much and affect the recording state?"

"That's why I didn't tell you last night!" Xiao Yao said.

"No wonder you kept it from her!" Xu Wenxiang said with a smile, "Just now after negotiating the contract and meeting Ah Yun, I couldn't help but tell her. It seems that I was talking too much!"

"It's okay, let's take it as a test for her." Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Anyway, I won't show her what the second song is like before the first song is recorded. Just treat it as an exercise Work on her ability to resist distractions and train her to focus when she has something on her mind."

"How is the practice of "Wedding Invitation Street"?" Xiao Yao turned to Yang Shiyun again and said, "If possible, I will listen to the soundtrack a few times for you to familiarize yourself with the accompaniment, and then we will start recording."

"No problem!" Yang Shiyun confidently made an OK gesture.

"Okay," Xiao Yao handed Yang Shiyun an earphone, and played the prepared accompaniment for her.

Yang Shiyun first listened to it in its entirety, and then hummed a few times while listening, then said yes, and confidently walked into the recording room.

Yesterday afternoon, Xu Wenxiang saw with his own eyes Xiao Yao's ability to arrange music, make soundtracks and write songs on the spot. Now, Xu Wenxiang has witnessed Xiao Yao's ability to guide singers to record with his own eyes.

Whether it's digging out the details sentence by sentence at the beginning of the audition, or catching mistakes in the whole song, Xiao Yao can accurately find out where Yang Shiyun did not do well in the singing process, and give effective guidance. As far as song recording is concerned, Xu Wenxiang feels that Xiao Yao is able to win the award of the best album producer in the Mainland at a young age, and he really deserves it!

Yang Shiyun was one of the vocal roles recognized by netizens in last year's girl group talent show. Her singing skills are very good. In addition, she got the lyrics and music of "Wedding Invitation Street" yesterday morning, and she has practiced for half a day and one night. The familiarity is also very high, so the whole recording process is relatively smooth.

At two or three o'clock in the afternoon, all of Yang Shiyun's vocal parts were recorded. The rest is some post-production sound modification and adjustment work.

It was my own work in the later stage, and there was nothing wrong with Yang Shiyun, so Xiao Yao gave the tune of another song and the lyrics of another song called "Yuan" in Cantonese and "onderful U" in English to the long-awaited Yang Shiyun. Since the arrangement and soundtrack of this song has also been prepared, Xiao Yao also gave the completed accompaniment to Yang Shiyun, so that she can practice with the accompaniment.

Although everything was given to Yang Shiyun, Xiao Yao did not plan to continue recording the other two songs today. I plan to give Yang Shiyun half a day and one night to practice and get familiar with it, and I will record another two songs tomorrow. Anyway, Xiao Yao's vacation is still there, and Xiao Yao will help her record tomorrow. Naturally, Yang Shiyun and Xu Wenxiang have no objection to such an arrangement.

Yang Shiyun went to the practice room to practice singing with the lyrics and accompaniment, while Xiao Yao stayed in the recording studio and continued to work on the later stage of "Wedding Invitation Street". Due to Yang Shiyun's good singing skills, there is not much need for tone correction in the later stage, and the workload in this later stage is not very large. In about half an hour, Xiao Yao finished everything.

"Mr. Xu, is the overall feeling okay?" After the production of the song was completed, Xiao Yao listened to Xu Wenxiang on the side, and asked the other party's opinion very modestly.

"Very good!" Xu Wenxiang nodded, "I think if I make it myself, it should be about the same level!"

"Thank you for the compliment!" Xiao Yao nodded his head, then got up and said, "I'll come back tomorrow to record another two songs, and that's all for today, so I'll take my leave!"

It was only after three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was far from the meal time. Xiao Yao didn't plan to stay in YH company until the meal time to eat.

"Wait," Xu Wenxiang stopped Xiao Yao and said, "Are you leaving now? Are there any other arrangements?"

"No arrangement," Xiao Yao shook his head, "Shi Yun is practicing singing, I don't plan to disturb her today. I'm going to go out for a walk by myself!"

"Mandy said yesterday that she wanted to invite you to dinner." Xu Wenxiang said, "She also specifically asked me today that we are going to record at noon, so she won't bother you. If you are free tonight, she will invite you to dinner tonight. , of course there will still be me and Ah Yun."

"Ms. Chen is too polite!" Xiao Yao laughed.

"Ms. Chen?" Xu Wenxiang frowned, and muttered in his heart, "When Xiao Yao left yesterday, he called Sister Mandy. Does he have any opinion on Mandy?"

"You're welcome," Xu Wenxiang still said, "You are a guest from afar, and you are also our business partner. In terms of politeness, I will treat you to a meal. Of course, the boxed lunch at noon is definitely not counted. If you don't want to Going to Mandy's banquet, how about I treat you tonight? It's just that I'm not as proficient in communication as Mandy, so the hotel I'm looking for may not be as good as Mandy's!"

"No, no," Xiao Yao smiled and waved his hands, "I just don't want to bother you."

"No trouble," Xu Wenxiang took out his mobile phone and said, "Since this is the case, then I will inform Mandy to arrange dinner for the evening."

"It's only after three o'clock, and it's still early for dinner. I can't just sit in your company and wait for dinner, can I?" Xiao Yao said, "Why don't you send me the time and place of dinner, and I'll go there by myself?"

"Alright!" Xu Wenxiang nodded, "I'll tell Mandy first, and then I'll send you out!"

Xiao Yao nodded, then sat aside and waited for Xu Wenxiang to call Chen Manli.

"Mandy said she wanted to talk to you about something, please wait a moment, she will come right away." After Xu Wenxiang hung up the phone, he said to Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao nodded noncommittal, sat aside and waited.

A few minutes later, there was a knock on the studio door. Xu Wenxiang called to come in, and Chen Manli walked in with a smile on her face.

Chen Manli first exchanged pleasantries with Xiao Yao, and asked about their recording situation. After learning that Xiao Yao had finished recording "Wedding Invitation Street", Xu Wenxiang also praised Xiao Yao to express his satisfaction, and Chen Manli also praised Xiao Yao a few words before talking about the business with Xiao Yao.

"Xiao Yao, I heard that you are preparing for a new movie project recently, and this time I came to Hong Kong Island for the new movie. I am very interested in your new movie project, can you come to my office for a chat ?" Chen Manli made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Yao.

"Sure enough, it's still here." Xiao Yao thought in his heart.

"Which aspect are you interested in?" Xiao Yao asked directly, "Do you want to express your intention to participate in investment and production on behalf of YH Company, or do you want to recommend actors or crew members to me?"

After talking with Yang Shiyun yesterday, Xiao Yao already had a plan in mind. What Chen Manli was interested in was nothing more than these two aspects.

"Honestly speaking, I have both ideas." Seeing Xiao Yao being direct, Chen Manli said straightforwardly, "I don't know if you know the rules of the Hong Kong Island Film Awards, which must meet three fixed conditions. Only two films are eligible to participate in the selection of the Academy Awards."

"Yes," Xiao Yao nodded and counted with his fingers, "First, the director must be a resident of Hong Kong Island. Second, the production company must have a legally registered company on Hong Kong Island. In each work project, at least six work project staff must be residents of Hong Kong Island. As for the specific sixteen work projects, I will not count them for you one by one."

"It's good if you know so well." Chen Manli smiled, "If our company participates in your film project, don't say that you can easily meet the second and third conditions and qualify for the selection. Our company can also help you a lot in the promotion of next year's awards season!"

"I understand," Xiao Yao smiled, "Your company is a well-established Hong Kong Island entertainment company, which has a great influence on the Hong Kong Film Awards. However, my film is neither short of funds nor suitable for Hong Kong. island actor. And more importantly, I have no intention of participating in the Academy Award for this film!"
