Entertaining Children

Chapter 543 The Origin of Wings

Although Xiao Yao didn't answer directly, what he said to Liang Xueying was undoubtedly an admission. But before the models could say anything to Xiao Yao, the director next to him interrupted everyone.

"Get ready to go on stage!" The on-site director reminded several models loudly.

There were no guest performers in the fifth unit, and there was no live band on the stage when Liang Xueying performed in the fourth unit, just her and some dancers, so there was no need to clean up the instruments and carry them. The staff only needed to clean up the few feathers that fell on the stage from Liang Xueying's back when she spread her wings. The whole preparation work is relatively simple, and the interval time is relatively short.

Although the on-site director was also surprised by what Liang Xueying said that Xiao Yao helped her design the whole performance, but when the sound of the staff getting ready for the stage came from the earphones, he still had to turn his attention back to the next catwalk on the show.

There are also those models who are the same as the live director. I am curious about Xiao Yao helping Liang Xueying design the stage performance, but the catwalk is work, obviously the latter is more important. So when the on-site director shouted, everyone restrained their minds and focused on the next catwalk, ignoring talking to Xiao Yao.

Hearing that the next unit's catwalk was about to start, Xiao Yao and Liang Xueying also quickly left the entrance. After passing through the backstage waiting area together, the two returned to their lounges.

"Sister Ying, your performance just now was really great!" After entering the lounge, Liang Xueying's real assistant greeted her, and helped her take off the leather coat with wings while talking excitedly.

Of course, Liang Xueying can also take off her coat when she is backstage, but if the wings are not put away, it will be quite in the way no matter whether she wears them on her body or holds them in her hands, so Xiao Yao needs to help him put them away at the passageway.

"Really?" Liang Xueying smiled, sat down on the sofa in the lounge, took a drink from the water glass.

Looking at the picture of only models but no guest performers on the TV in front of her, Liang Xueying's thoughts drifted back to a few days ago.

After making that phone call to Xiao Yao, Liang Xueying flew to Shanghai with her team the next day. In order to avoid trouble for Xiao Yao to go to the airport to pick up the plane, Liang Xueying just told Xiao Yao on the phone the day before that he would come to Shanghai the next day, but did not tell Xiao Yao the specific flight and arrival time. After arriving in Shanghai, Liang Xueying took her to the hotel that had been booked in advance. After the luggage was settled, Liang Xueying called Xiao Yao again, and after confirming that Xiao Yao was waiting for them, she took people directly to Yin Xi's studio.

After meeting and exchanging pleasantries, Xiao Yao asked Pei Minyi to take the rest of Liang Xueying's team to the rehearsal room of the recording studio, while he himself took Liang Xueying to his office and talked about money with Liang Xueying. Of course Xiao Yao asked Liang Xueying for money. Whether Xiao Yao said that he would charge the rehearsal room rent or Liang Xueying scolded her for being a money fan,

It's all a joke. What Xiao Yao didn't expect was that Liang Xueying actually sent a sum of money.

"Sister Xueying, our accountant said that we have received a sum of money from your company, do you really treat me as a little money fan?" After pulling Liang Xueying into the office, Xiao Yao asked Liang Xueying directly.

After going to work today, the finance manager in charge of the joint brand found that there was an extra sum of money from Liang Xueying's company in the account. Since the common brand has no business relationship with Liang Xueying's company, naturally there is no account receivable from that company, so after the finance company discovered the amount, it immediately told Fang Yiran, and Fang Yiran also told Xiao Yao immediately.

"Aren't you?" Liang Xueying smiled, "Who called yesterday and said that you have to pay for the rehearsal room?"

"I'm joking, can't you tell?" Xiao Yao said, "Are you really paying the rent?"

"I'm not joking." Liang Xueying said, "And that's not all the rent for using the rehearsal room this time, it also includes the costumes from last time!"

"The costume from last time? It was on "Singer"? Didn't I say it was given to you?" Xiao Yao said, "I helped others design costumes a lot, and I gave them away and never confiscated them." Too much money!"

"It's okay for you to give it to me, but that suit is not entirely due to your credit!" Liang Xueying said, "Although it was designed by you, you did not complete the production alone, and the hard work of other employees is also involved. Especially for those lamps on the clothes, the cost of making and installing them and labor is not small, right? Since your brand company already has a custom-made clothing business, it is no problem for me to pay according to commercial rules. My money is a dozen The ones on your company account didn’t call you personally either.”

"Here, I'm the boss, what's the difference?" Xiao Yao smiled wryly.

"Of course there is a difference!" Liang Xueying said, "If you call your company, your employees can also enjoy the performance bonus!"

"This..." Xiao Yao said helplessly.

"Okay," Liang Xueying interrupted Xiao Yao, "The money has already been transferred, you don't want to pay it back, do you? Compared with the first time you helped me win in "Singer", these Money doesn't mean anything. If you're really embarrassed, give me some advice and advice. This is my first time performing in a world-class fashion show like the Eva show, and you I have been to the scene of the Eva show several times, and I must have more experience in this area than I do!"

"Well, okay!" Seeing that Liang Xueying had already said this, Xiao Yao could only nod in agreement.

Since I want Xiao Yao to help out with ideas and opinions, it's not just arranging them casually. In the first rehearsal in the rehearsal room, Liang Xueying and the dancers all did the modeling and makeup for the performance, put on the costumes for the performance, and gave Xiao Yao a real rehearsal with makeup.

"How is it?" Liang Xueying asked Xiao Yao after the makeup rehearsal.

"Singing skills are still impeccable as always," Xiao Yao nodded, and said bluntly, "But other than that, everything else is~ not so good!"

"What?" Liang Xueying asked in surprise. Although it was said that Xiao Yao was asking for some opinions, she never expected that the performance planned by her professional team would be useless in Xiao Yao's eyes except for her own singing.

"Let's talk about your appearance first," Xiao Yao looked at Liang Xueying's hair and said, "Although your voice and singing are very European and American, your appearance and appearance are not European and American at all. This light brown big Wavy hairstyles really don't suit you!"

"Really?" Liang Xueying touched her loose curly hair.

"Then it's the clothes~" Xiao Yao's gaze moved down to Liang Xueying's body.

"There is also a problem with the clothes? This is~" Liang Xueying said in disbelief.

"I know," Xiao Yao interrupted, "A certain world-renowned fashion brand will cost no less than 800,000 yuan for advanced customization based on the new style of this fall, right?"

"You know that too?" Liang Xueying stared.

"Of course," Xiao Yao said with a smug smile, "I'm a photographer, and we're a fashion brand here, with a bunch of fashion designers in the company. Even if I haven't been to the four major fashion weeks or any big-name press conferences this year, The latest fashion information is not difficult to understand."

"Although the high-end customization of this brand is in line with your value," Xiao Yao pointed to the suit on her body, "but this fluffy suit is the same as the big light brown waves on your head, it is not suitable for you! No! It’s just the Eva show. I suggest you don’t wear this outfit in any performance occasions. At most, you can wear it when you go out with friends. If you really don’t want to use this expensive clothes as casual clothes, you can wear it at your own concert Dress it up, the media won't compare you with other people on the same stage, and there should be fewer people complaining about it."

"This~" Liang Xueying looked down at the clothes on her body, "Is it so bad?"

"And the shoes under your feet!" Xiao Yao continued regardless, "There is nothing wrong with the style, but is it necessary for you to wear such high-heeled shoes?"

"What's the problem with the heel height?" Liang Xueying said, "I want to share the stage with Eva's supermodels, the height can't be too different, right?"

"Do you want to compare your height with Eva's supermodels?" Xiao Yao smiled, "Sister, you are only 1.62 meters tall, and the shortest of Eva's supermodels is 1.76 meters tall. What about centimeters. And the supermodels on the Eva show also wear high heels. If you want to look as tall as them, you have to wear shoes that are 30 centimeters tall. Those are not high heels, but stilts!"

"Hello!" Liang Xueying called out dissatisfied.

"Well," Xiao Yao said, "Actually, it's not a problem to wear high heels, it's just that it's not necessary to be so high. Also, although you also dance during the performance, you are a capable singer after all, not the kind of singer Dancing singer. In terms of dancing, just leave it to the dancers. It can be seen that they are professional dancers, and it’s no problem to increase the difficulty. And you don’t have to dance the same moves as them, even if you don’t dance. Okay, anyway, everyone is not watching you dance. You just walk around on the stage and interact with the models on the catwalk, the effect is better than dancing!"

"Speaking of which, I finally have something that sounds like a suggestion." Liang Xueying said, "But you've said so many questions, and this is the only suggestion?"

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yao asked.

"You raised a problem, but you also have to come up with a solution!" Liang Xueying said, "The hairstyle and clothes are not suitable, so what should I change?"

"Are you relying on me again?" Xiao Yao asked amusedly.

"Who asked you to pick a bunch of problems for me? I don't have any confidence now, who else should I look for if I don't ask you?" Liang Xueying said.

"Okay," Xiao Yao thought for a while, nodded and said, "Anyway, the money you paid is far more than the cost of the dress last time and the rent of the rehearsal room combined. The extra money will not be refunded, just When you spend money to ask our company to do another image design for you, appoint me to do it!"

"Really?" Liang Xueying said happily, "Don't talk about refunding the money, if you really help me with the performance design again, it's okay for me to pay more!"

"You don't need to add more money, just see if you are satisfied with what you see." Xiao Yao laughed.

"Then when will you be able to design it?" Liang Xueying said, "I don't want to rush you, but it's only a few days away from the Eva show, and I still have to rehearse!"

"Let me think about it!" Xiao Yao tapped his chin with his fingers, and lowered his head in thought.

Thinking of Lady Gaga's performance on the Victoria's Secret show in his previous life, Xiao Yao's mind flashed, and he smiled and said to Liang Xueying: "I have a plan!"

"So fast?" Liang Xueying asked in surprise.

"Well," Xiao Yao nodded, "Aren't you worried about being compared with Eva's supermodel? How about I let you have an Eva Angel addiction?"

"Have an addiction to Eva Angel?" Liang Xueying said, "You mean you want me to walk on the stage with Eva's supermodel? Can I do it?"

"Of course you can't do better than walking on the stage, but you are a singer, a guest performer, and not a model, and people will not compare you with the real Eva supermodel. We just need to surprise and win!" Xiao Yao said, "Eva is supermodel! What is the biggest feature of the model catwalk? The wings on the back! I'll get you a costume with wings too. As for the steps, it doesn't need to be too standard, just look like that!"

"You asked me to perform in a costume with a pair of wings?" Liang Xueying asked in surprise.

"Well, if you appear on the stage with a pair of wings on your back, the purpose is too obvious, and there is no surprise effect. Moreover, it seems a bit silly to perform on stage from beginning to end with a pair of wings on your back," Xiao Yao said, "so this wing It can be folded, put it away first, wait until the models' catwalks are all over, then open the wings on the stage, and finally have a catwalk. This will not distract the audience from the catwalk models in the previous performances Power, and can unexpectedly bring a small climax to the scene at the end, Eva should have no objection to this arrangement."

"Foldable wings that can be folded? Do you still have such things?" Liang Xueying said.

"Not now, but it can be done!" Xiao Yao said, "Rick, who works on the lighting system in our company, used to be a prop artist in the United States, and he and I worked together to make the lighting system. If we cooperate, we should A pair of retractable wings that can be attached to clothing can be tinkered with."

"Of course, this will take time, and I will get it out with Rick as soon as possible." Xiao Yao continued, "Before the clothes are ready, you should learn how to walk first! I will ask Sister Xi to teach you, she is also Yi Baby Angel is definitely a master in the modeling industry, and it just so happens that she won't be participating in the Eva show this year. Let her teach you, and it shouldn't be a problem to learn how to look in a few days!"

"Okay, I believe you! I listen to you!" Liang Xueying imagined the scene of herself walking on the Eva show with her wings on her back, and nodded her agreement without hesitation.

Faced with Xiao Yao's request to guide Liang Xueying on the stage, Yin Xi readily agreed. Yin Xi's studio has its own venue for fashion shows, and the location of the practice is not a problem at all. In the next few days, after Liang Xueying spent a little time practicing singing, she spent most of her time learning how to walk with Yin Xi.

Three days later, Xiao Yao brought the completed top with retractable wings to Liang Xueying. There is a cable behind the collar near the collarbone on the front of the leather jacket, which can be pulled down to open the wings. And to put it away, just bend a few joints on the feathered wing skeleton.

Because the wings are relatively large when they are unfolded, Liang Xueying also asked her assistant to enter the backstage waiting area of ​​the Eva Show, so after the performance, the work of retracting the wings was handed over to Xiao Yao, who is also a guest performer. As a designer and maker of clothes, Xiao Yao is more proficient than Liang Xueying's assistant.

After several rehearsals, Liang Xueying was full of confidence in this performance, and today's actual performance was even better than Liang Xueying expected.

"Sister Ying, the fifth unit is over, and it's time for Xiao Yao to play in the last unit!"

The assistant's words brought Liang Xueying back from her thoughts. Liang Xueying followed the direction of the assistant's finger and looked at the TV in front of her. At this time, the TV was completely dark, and it was obvious that the fifth unit had ended.

"Yeah!" Liang Xueying nodded, the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, and she thought to herself, "Compared to my wings, his finale performance is not bad at all, and it will surprise everyone's eyes!"
