Entertaining Children

"Single talk? Aren't you going to Shonan with Kailin?" Wu You said to Xiao Yao, "Yesterday you said you would put the preparations for the "Immersive Sound" finals in the last two weeks, and you should have time to go to Shonan this week Right? The studio version is different from the live version, right? As the creator and producer of this song, during the rehearsal of "Singer", don't you go to the scene to give guidance?"

"Hmm~ I haven't thought about this yet." Xiao Yao pondered for a moment before raising his head and said, "I don't mind taking Teacher Liu Tong's job, but I don't think it's interesting to just stay behind the scenes."

"You can go on stage!" Wu You reminded, "Don't you know a lot of musical instruments? The piano, keyboard, and guitar are all great. There should be these instruments in this song, right? Kailin would definitely like to ask you to be a live musician , I’m afraid I won’t be able to invite you. As long as you are willing, it will definitely not be a problem to appear on stage.”

"That's no problem. There's an electric guitar in the soundtrack, so I can accompany it on stage." Xiao Yao said, "It's just that when Kailin is not performing, I don't want to stay in the lounge where the guests bring their own musicians or backing actors. It's too boring, the rest hall and the rest room of competing singers are more fun. But I'm not a competing singer, and it's against the program regulations to do so."

"What's so difficult about this?" Fang still reminded, "Didn't you work as Gong Chen and Xu Yuan's little follower before? You can also be Miss Jiang's makeup artist this time. As a member of her personal team If you are a member, can you follow her to her singer lounge? If it’s just the lounge, you might just pass by, it’s not convenient to wait there for a long time.”

"Let your own celebrity be a makeup artist for other celebrities? What kind of agent is this?" Jiang Kailin's agent looked at Fang Yiran in surprise.

"That's a way." Xiao Yao nodded, looked at Jiang Kailin and said, "How about I join your private team temporarily, how about being a makeup artist for you?"

"Huh? Are you going to be my makeup artist?" Jiang Kailin was a little silly.

"Don't believe my skills?" Xiao Yao smiled, "When I went to "Masked Singer" with Gong Chen and Xu Yuan that year, I really did all the makeup and removal work."

"No, no," Jiang Kailin hurriedly waved her hands, "I'm flattered and frightened that a celebrity like you wants to be my makeup artist!"

"It's nothing to be surprised about. I've always been more casual, and I think it's more important to have fun." Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Not only have I worked as a makeup artist for others, but I've also helped others carry suitcases and been an assistant."

"Okay, then it's such a happy decision." Xiao Yao clapped his hands and said, "I'm going to harmonize with Jia Qilu now, so who are you?"

"It's late now, I came here to find you for dinner." Jiang Kailin said,

"You decide whether to go out to eat first or record first, we will listen to you."

"Are you hungry?" Xiao Yao looked at the time and asked Zhou Jiaqi.

"Sister still prepared a lot of snacks for me, I'm not hungry." Zhou Jiaqi said.

"Okay, then you wait for a while. First finish the recording with Jiaqi before going to dinner, so as not to run back and forth, so that you can send Jiaqi home early." Xiao Yao said to Jiang Kailin.

"Such a young child came to record, and her parents didn't follow? Are they so relieved of you?" Jiang Kailin looked at Zhou Jiaqi and said.

"When I came here for the first time, I was definitely not worried. My parents came with me, but the more times I came, the more I became familiar with it, so I didn't worry so much." Xiao Yao said, "Her parents happened to have something to do at this time today. I didn’t come here, just send her home after the recording.”

Xiao Yao's "seve" and "Chengdu" both have children's voices. The official version was recorded by the children of the Shencheng Children's Palace Choir. The children's song "Little Star" sung during the webcast was also sung by the Shencheng Children's Palace Chorus The group recorded an official version, Zhou Jiaqi was included in each of the three collaborations, and she is the one in the choir who is most familiar with Xiao Yao.

Both versions of the song feature child vocals, but are not identical. Xiao Yao entrusted Zhou Jiaqi to complete the accompaniment of the two versions of the children's vocals. This time, he invited her to record both versions of the accompaniment at one time. Zhou Jiaqi and Xiao Yao have collaborated several times, and it is not difficult to sing accompaniment to this song, so even though it was recorded two versions of harmony accompaniment at once, it did not take too long, about half an hour. nailed it.

After dinner, Xiao Yao didn't work overtime either, but gave Jiang Kailin the accompaniment he had prepared so that she could get acquainted with it at night, and then come to the recording studio for official recording the next day.

The next day, Jiang Kailin came to Xiao Yao's recording studio on time, but before the official recording, Jiang Kailin said to Xiao Yao with some hesitation: "Xiao Yao, there is something I want to tell you first."

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yao looked at Jiang Kailin and asked.

"For the live performance of "Singer", I want to change the lyrics." Jiang Kailin said, "I think I need to tell you first."

"Which lyrics are you dissatisfied with? Or is there a better word?" Xiao Yao asked curiously, "No matter what it is, you can mention it in detail, and we can discuss it. If it is really your word that is better Well, I don't mind following yours, and I can also add your name to the lyricist."

"No, it's not that I'm dissatisfied, and it's not that there are better ones." Jiang Kailin said, "The lyrics and music of your song are very good, and the official version is recorded completely according to the lyrics and music you gave me. It's just that for some reasons, I want When I sang "Singer", I changed it temporarily, to be precise, I just changed one of the words."

The copyright of this song has been bought by Jiang Kailin, and Jiang Kailin plans to release a single. Although the release time of the single must be after she participated in "Singer", Xiao Yao helped her record this song just like when he participated in "Singer" back then, and recorded the official version directly before participating in the competition. In fact, if only changing the lyrics of the live version, Jiang Kailin can completely change the lyrics herself when performing on the stage of "Singer". Anyway, the contract was signed, the money was paid, and the official version was recorded. Even if Xiao Yao was dissatisfied, he couldn't change anything. At worst, a forgotten word or a slip of the tongue can be explained.

However, Jiang Kailin still wants to have follow-up cooperation with Xiao Yao, and doesn't want Xiao Yao to have any dissatisfaction or other ideas. She didn't know what Xiao Yao's attitude would be to the singer's unauthorized modification of the lyrics he wrote, so after thinking about it last night, she decided to say hello to Xiao Yao first.

"It was only temporarily changed on "Singer", and there was only one word?" Xiao Yao was even more surprised, "I am very curious, which word is it, and why did it need to be changed temporarily?"

"It's the phrase "a cunning person has thousands of kinds of laughter", and I think it will be temporarily changed to "a hypocritical person has a thousand kinds of laughter" during the live performance." Jiang Kailin said, "It's not that "hypocrisy" must be better than "cunning". ,only me…"

"It's just that "hypocrisy" is better than "cunning" when describing someone, isn't it?" Xiao Yao smiled suddenly, "It turns out that you really don't get along with that person, I thought those things on the Internet were for you to participate in "Singer" "It's only because of the hype!"

"Huh?" Jiang Kailin asked in surprise.

"Many people on the Internet are saying, I know it's normal!" Xiao Yao laughed, "It's not that the former "sisters" were actually plastic lovers, and they started tearing up after falling out~ Sorry, so what."

Due to her participation in "Singer" which attracted attention, the recent news about Jiang Kailin and another Hong Kong female singer's eight-year rip-off was revealed by gossip media, and it was uploaded on the Internet. When checking Wu You's Weibo some time ago, Xiao Yao also learned about Jiang Kailin's situation by the way, so he naturally knew about it.

"Between her and me..." Jiang Kailin said anxiously.

"It has nothing to do with me!" Xiao Yao stopped her with a smile and waved his hand, "To be honest, this kind of thing is very common in the entertainment industry. Come to speak up, I have no problem. For me, there is not much difference between using "cunning" and "hypocrisy" in a lyrics. Not only "Singer" live, but also the official version is also okay to use "hypocrisy". Of course, I myself "Cunning" will still be used in the version of the word. In this way, there are two versions for comparison, and everyone is more likely to notice this word, and it can better achieve your purpose."

"You don't care about the matter between me and her, but you are willing to let me speak with the songs you wrote?" Jiang Kailin looked at Xiao Yao in puzzlement and said.

"That's right," Xiao Yao said, "I just wrote a song and agreed with you to change a word in it. Can't this be understood as an act of standing in line?"

"His own version uses cunning, and your version uses hypocrisy. It looks like you want to change it. No matter how much trouble your fans make, this fire should not burn on him." Fang still laughed, "He It’s not a big deal just to watch the fun!”

"That's almost what it means!" Xiao Yao smiled and nodded, then spread his hands and said, "Actually, you really wanted to change the lyrics, I didn't do anything!"

"You~" Jiang Kailin was speechless for a while.

"Okay, I have no objection to changing the lyrics. Can we start recording? After recording, we have to go to Shonan to rehearse the live version." Xiao Yao pointed to the recording room and said, "As for the lyrics? , you are free, I only care about the musical aspect of your recording."

"Okay!" Jiang Kailin nodded helplessly, cleaned up her mood, and walked into the recording room.

After Xiao Yao helped Jiang Kailin record the studio version of the song, the group immediately set off for Shonan.

When they arrived in Shonan, there were still two days before the recording and rehearsal of "Singer" this week. Since Jiang Kailin's competition in this issue has a live harmony singing of a child's voice, and the children who sing the child's voice were found by Shonan Satellite TV for them. They have not cooperated with each other before. They arrived early to practice with a few children.

The children's accompaniment singers that Shonan Satellite TV helped Jiang Kailin find were four five or six-year-old girls, all from the Children's Art Troupe, the center of youth activities in Shonan. The children's harmony part of this song is not difficult at all. The children in this group have appeared on the stage of "Singer" more than once, and have experience in helping singers harmonize, so the practice process is also very smooth.

Due to arriving in Shonan ahead of schedule, on the day of the competition, Jiang Kailin's team was also the first to arrive at the recording site of Shonan TV's "Singer" program.

Xiao Yao came to "Singer" this time as a member of Jiang Kailin's private team. The program crew and Jiang Kailin's follow-up team all knew about it, but they just kept it from other competing singers and their teams, and didn't let them know in advance. It is rare for Xiao Yao to appear in the backstage of "Singer" with such a special identity. Of course, the program crew will also want to shoot some backstage highlights of him, so there are no restrictions on his actions, as long as he is not caught by other competing singers too soon. And its team found out just fine.

Compared with the previous year, although the recording location of this program is the same, some changes have taken place in the layout of the stage of the studio, the rest hall on the first floor, and the singer's lounge on the second floor. After discovering that Jiang Kailin was the first competing singer to arrive and there was no danger of being discovered by others, Xiao Yao also wandered around the lounge on the first floor of "Singer" to feel the difference between this place and the previous year.

Since Xiao Yao wanted to take a look in the lobby on the first floor, Jiang Kailin didn't go upstairs to her lounge, but sat on the sofa in the lobby on the first floor to accompany him.

"Someone is coming!" Xiao Yao heard the sound of footsteps outside the door of the hall which had been deliberately left open, and immediately rushed to Jiang Kailin's lounge on the second floor.

Jiang Kailin didn't follow Xiao Yao upstairs, but stood up from the sofa, walked to the door to greet the singer who came in, and helped Xiao Yao cover by the way.

"Who is here?" After confirming safety, Xiao Yao gently opened the door of the lounge, squatted down and looked down quietly.

Some of the singers in this season are known to Xiao Yao, and some are not well known to Xiao Yao. Moreover, after two episodes of recording and broadcasting, some people have been eliminated and some have been replaced. There may also be some changes in the personnel, so Xiao Yao is also a little curious. Who is coming.

Since there is a camera team on site in the rest hall, Jiang Kailin's follow-up team also knew that Xiao Yao would hide in Jiang Kailin's lounge once people came, so Jiang Kailin's follow-up team did not stay in the lobby on the first floor, but waited. In Jiang Kailin's lounge. When the two separated, Jiang Kailin's follow-up team was in charge of taking pictures of Xiao Yao.

"Ellie Henderson! The second one to come in is the Great Demon King!" Xiao Yao glanced twice, then looked back at the photographer's camera lens with a surprised expression and said, "Finally saw me with my own eyes. Already!"

In came an English songstress named Allie Henderson, about thirty years old. She has won several Brit Awards, and was a guest performer at the Grammy Awards in the United States. There are many classic songs of hers on the British singles chart and the American billboard. This is definitely an international superstar, and is also called the biggest singer in the history of the "Singer" program by netizens.

Of course, her strength is beyond doubt. The first three episodes of this season's "Singer" won an unprecedented three consecutive championships. None of the five episodes broadcast so far has made the top three. He is the real "big devil" in this season's programs.

After exchanging pleasantries with Jiang Kailin for a while, Allie Henderson didn't go upstairs to the lounge immediately, but looked at the grand piano in the hall with interest, and asked the program manager beside him, "I want to play it That piano, can I try it?"

"Of course!" The program manager who followed her stood by the piano, leaned on it, and made a listening posture, "Let us enjoy your performance."

"Piano performance!" Xiao Yao turned back and asked Jiang Kailin's follow-up director, "Has this piano been tuned recently? Do you want me to play a guest role as a tuner again?"
