Entertaining Children

  Chapter 631 Do I Need to Learn Chinese

Xiao Yao would definitely not consider bringing some of the "Immortals" friends from the United States to be the guests or musicians in the final of "Singer", but since a few of them came to the door, Xiao Yao is not welcome. Up. Anyway, Dean also said on the phone that they will play in China for about half a month this time. In terms of time, participating in the "Singer" finals is no problem.

  Early the next morning, Xiao Yao took an early flight from Shencheng to Yanjing. After arriving in Yanjing, Xiao Yao didn't even return home, so he switched from Terminal 1 for domestic flights at Yanjing Airport to Terminal 3 for international flights, ready to pick up the plane.

Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying, who received Xiao Yao’s phone call the night before, also temporarily adjusted their work and schedule. After a day’s time, each drove a car to the airport to meet Xiao Yao and greet Xiao Yao together. The arrival of these little American friends.

  At around eleven o'clock in the morning, Dean and the four-person flight arrived on time. It didn't take long for Xiao Yao to spot four people among the crowd coming out of the exit of the passenger passage.

   "Dean! Sami! Mike! George!" Xiao Yao believed in his own eyesight, and didn't hold up the pick-up card at all. When the four of them were still looking up and looking for the pick-up card with their names on them, Xiao Yao rushed directly in front of them, smiled and gave each a big hug, even Samien Smith was no exception. .

  "Yang! It's been a long time! I've got a better figure!" The four also responded happily to Xiao Yao, and the three boys also beat Xiao Yao in the chest or back. Samien Smith had met Xiao Yao a few times during last summer vacation, but the three boys hadn't seen Xiao Yao for two years. Although the contact has not been interrupted, the few people are still extremely excited when they meet face to face.

"You are not bad, you didn't lose your figure because you are famous!" Xiao Yao also smiled and patted the three of them, and then led them to Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying, "Go, let you know my parents. "

   "It's nice to meet you, welcome to China and Yanjing!" Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying greeted the four people one by one and warmly welcomed them. Although it was the first time I met, Xiao Yao had told them who was who, and the two whites in this band were a male and a female, a black, and a South American Latino with Indian descent. It is difficult to make any mistakes.

   "Mr. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, it is nice to meet you." The four also said politely.

   "Mrs. Xiao, you are so beautiful!" Samien also specially praised Ye Jiaying.

   "Thank you!" Ye Jiaying smiled happily. Ye Jiaying's praise for this beautiful girl who looks a little cold is very useful.

"Of course, my mother is China's movie queen!" Xiao Yao said triumphantly, "My whole family are all stars. If they are recognized, they will be watched, which will affect the normal order of the airport! Let's leave the airport early and go to my house. chat."

  Even though they knew that what Xiao Yao was saying was the truth, the four of them unceremoniously threw them a blank eye. However, the four of them did not deliberately antagonize Xiao Yao, pushing the luggage cart and following the three of Xiao's family to the parking lot.

   "Why are your family all stars, but you don't even have an assistant?" On the way to the parking lot, Dean approached Xiao Yao deliberately.

"Because you are friends who came to China to play, not stars who came to China to perform. We also came to pick you up as friends and friends' elders, so we didn't deliberately bring an assistant over." Xiao Yao laughed, "You are pushing Don’t you move your luggage cart? Do you want to give it to me? I can push two by one person."

  When several people set off to the parking lot, Ye Jiaying happily took Samien’s arm, and Xiao Yao took Samien’s luggage cart along the way. As for the boys, they had to push them all by themselves.

When    came to the parking lot, the luggage of the four people was loaded into two cars, but all four of them got into a car driven by Xiao Yao. Five people happened to be in one car, and Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying shared another car. This is why they would drive a car alone when they came.

  When I came to Xiao’s house, Ye Jiaying went to the kitchen to prepare lunch, Xiao Siqi followed to help, and Xiao Yao took a few people upstairs and downstairs to visit.

Xiao Yao’s house is a villa. It’s not surprising that there is a piano room and a gym in Xiao Yao’s house, but when you see that Xiao Yao’s house actually has a small professional studio, and there is a professional recording studio in the basement. At that time, several people were so surprised that their eyes widened.

   "Yang, why does your room look like no one has lived in it for a long time?" Samien asked when he finally came to Xiao Yao's bedroom. Although Ye Jiaying had been helping Xiao Yao's room to be clean and hygienic when Xiao Yao was away, but the careful Samien still keenly discovered that this room lacked the atmosphere of inhabitation.

   "Because I have not been in Yanjing recently, but live in Shencheng." Xiao Yao smiled, "I remember I told you that I was studying in China's Shencheng University."

   "I know, but isn't it summer vacation now? Huaxia University will also have summer vacation in July or August?" Dean asked curiously.

"Well, I do have summer vacation, but I still have a job in Shencheng." Xiao Yao said, "When I received your call yesterday, I was still in Shencheng. I took a plane from Shencheng to Yanjing this morning. , Did not go home, just waited for you at the airport."

   "Work? Then you don't have time to take us out to play?" Dean said disappointedly, "We should notify you sooner and come back."

"Not exactly." Xiao Yao smiled, "I participated in a TV show of a singing competition in China. It has been in a dozen episodes, and now there is only the final final. The final time is next next weekend. I need to sing two songs in the finals. This time is mainly for practice and rehearsal, so I am not completely out of time to play with you. I plan to take you to Shencheng tomorrow. I will rehearse during the day and accompany you in Shencheng at night. Go out to play in the city. If you also want to go out during the day, I can also arrange for someone to accompany you as a tour guide."

  "Is the final in Shencheng? Since it is a rehearsal, why not rehearse in Yanjing? Wouldn't it be more comfortable to live at home?" Mike said, "If I have a home like you, I definitely don't want to go anywhere."

"The final is not in Shanghai, nor in Yanjing. It was a program of a TV station in China's Hunan Province. The final was in the studio of that TV station, in southern Hunan." Xiao Yao said, "but in that show, my dad is One of my opponents in the finals, we want to prepare separately so as not to affect each other."

   "What? You and your dad are opponents in the finals? Are you competing in the same field? Goodness, what kind of show is that?" Dean exclaimed.

"It was a very popular and professional music competition program in China, and the players participating in it were all China's very famous and very powerful big-name star singers." Xiao Yao proudly introduced Dean and Mike. With a smile on his shoulder, "Do you want to see it?"

   "Are you going to be an audience?" George said, "You sing on the stage, and we scream for you in the audience?"

   "No, no," Xiao Yao repeatedly shook his head, "We are a band, of course we went on stage to perform."

"Didn't you say it's a competition? We are not contestants. We have not participated in the first dozen or so sessions, so we can directly participate in the finals? Or are you planning to let us be the guest performers? But you are a contestant again. Is this illegal?" Samien frowned.

"It's not a guest performer, but my guest to help out, my musician." Xiao Yao said, "The contestants in this show can invite the musicians to take to the show stage by themselves. It's a competition singing show. Although we appear together in the form of a band, as long as it is my single vocalist, you are all musicians I invited to go. It is still my competition, which is in full compliance with the show's competition rules."

   "But that show will still introduce us as "Immortals", right?" Samien smiled and looked at Xiao Yao.

   "Yes!" Xiao Yao nodded.

They are bands that have been to Oscars. As long as they go there, there is a big reminder of their own, it is impossible for the program group to recognize them, and it is impossible not to report their names to highlight them, and Xiao Harao took them there, originally meant to play the banner of "Immortals" band.

"Are you borrowing our band's reputation to compete with your dad?" Dean immediately understood what Samien meant and glanced at Xiao Yao. "You said at the airport just now that we are friends who come to China to play. It’s not a star who has come to China to perform, so in a blink of an eye we will follow you to perform on China’s TV show?"

   "It wasn't just now, you just agreed." Xiao Yao said immediately, "I will serve you as an assistant at that time!"

"It's not uncommon, I'm here to travel, not to perform!" Samien said with arms around his chest, "If you want to perform, there are more opportunities in the United States, but we have promoted several performance opportunities at summer music festivals. I'm free for the half-month vacation of China Travel."

   "But Sammy, Young is to us..." George wanted to say something, but Samien glared at him, and immediately shrank his neck, swallowing what was to be said later.

   "We listen to Sami," Dean smiled and patted Xiao Yao on the shoulder. "If you can handle her, we will be fine."

   "Yang, do you need me to give you an idea?" Mike leaned closer to Xiao Yao's ear and whispered, "As long as you say..."

   "No, I know what you want to say." Xiao Yao directly shook his head and interrupted, "I will not ask her to go back to Huaxia for help, nor will I use such lies to threaten or irritate people."

"I don't want to tell any lies to deceive any of you." Xiao Yao said, "Actually, I didn't intend to invite celebrity musicians to help out, but you just happened to be here, so I wanted to let you guys under the banner of our band. Go and play with me. If you don’t want to go, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, the players on that show are very good, and they are at least ten years older than me, and there are some who have been famous like my dad for a long time. The big-name star, I almost never hope to win the championship, just go to play."

After a pause, Xiao Yao walked over from Shencheng and threw it beside the backpack on the table after entering the door. He took out a few pieces of paper from it and handed it to Dean, "Give it to you! It was originally intended to be after the performance. As a gift of thanks, since you are not willing to go, then give it to you now, as a gift to welcome you to visit China!"

   "This is..." Dean took a look and exclaimed, "Score?! What new song did you write for our band?"

"Yeah!" Xiao Yao nodded, "Speaking of which, I haven't written a song for the band for a year. The last song was sent to you through Keith during the summer vacation last year. After you called me last night , I found out that I don’t care about the band as much as before. I’m sorry, I wrote this overnight last night, I hope you will like it!"

   "Sami, you were joking just now, didn't you?" Dean looked at the score in his hand and turned to look at Samin.

   Mike and George looked at Samien as expected as Dean.

   "Is this the song you are going to sing in that competition?" Samien hesitated for a while, and finally looked at Xiao Yao and said.

   "No, I said that I originally planned to give it to you after the game." Xiao Yao shook his head, "That's my game. This song belongs to the band. I will sing Chinese songs during the game."

   "Then do we need to learn Chinese? Is there any part that requires the harmony of the band members." Samien asked again. The single vocalist does not mean that others will not speak at all. In many TV programs of music competitions, the singers will also ask for harmony alone.

   "YES!" George cheered.

   "Shut up!" Sammy glared at George again. George also shrank his neck again, but this time, he still grinned with his big white teeth.

   "No!" Xiao Yao also smiled.
