Entertaining Children

  Chapter 311 No Style

   "Teacher Xiao, then I will leave." Seeing Xiao Yao's back left the living room and upstairs, Gong Chen also got up and said.

   "Why? Do you have other things?" Xiao Siqi asked a little strangely, "Didn't Xiao Yao just leave you down for dinner."

"Xiao Yao is just to be polite, how can I really stay here to disturb your family's dinner." Gong Chen smiled shyly, "I'll take care of dinner by myself, you think it's appropriate for me to come back at 8 o'clock. Did you guys have finished dinner by then?"

"It's not appropriate, and what points are not appropriate. It's not appropriate for you to go now." Ye Jiaying also said, "Xiao Yao never said this kind of polite remarks of keeping people for dinner, since he said it, then he really hopes You stay for dinner. Besides, weren't you afraid that Xiao Yao would be too hard just now? You will not waste time if you stay to eat. You can start earlier and finish earlier, and Xiao Yao can rest earlier."

"Before you came, Sister Lao Sha and Ling both called us. Please take care of you. Even if Xiao Yao doesn't say anything, we both want to keep you for a meal. Don't be polite and stay at ease. "Alright." Xiao Siqi said, "Also, starting from the day after tomorrow, when Xiao Yao goes to school during the day, you can go directly to the karaoke room of our studio to practice. The environment and equipment there are also good."

   "Thank you so much." Gong Chen bowed gratefully to the two of them, "I don't know how to thank you anymore."

"Don't be so polite," Xiao Siqi said with a smile, "You behave well. It is the best thanks to us to win a championship with this song by Xiao Yao. We are just such a baby boy. What is he going to do? We naturally fully support it."

"That..." Since not leaving, Gong Chen sat down again and hesitated, she still asked Xiao Siqi curiously, "Mr. Xiao, I want to ask, the song Xiao Yao prepared, you Haven't you even heard the melody fragment? If you have, could you tell me a little bit?"

"Really an anxious girl," Xiao Siqi smiled, spreading his hands, "But I'm sorry, I really haven't heard of it at all. We, father and son, write songs in our respective piano rooms. Normally, Next, no one else will bother when they are creating. Although I know he made it late last night, I really don’t know what the song looks like."

   "Last night? You said he wrote that song last night?" Gong Chen said in surprise.

"Forget it," Xiao Siqi nodded. "This kid writes songs differently from me. I write songs piece by piece. When I think about it, I write it down and then slowly improve it. A song should be at least good. A few days, a long week and a half. But he is different, his things are in his head, if he really wants to write, usually it is done in one go. If I guessed correctly, his song should be early It's already formed in my mind. Yesterday I just recorded the lyrics and music on paper. He made it so late yesterday, so he should be doing the arrangement and soundtrack. The songs he wrote, the arrangement and the soundtrack were usually done by himself, very Don't fake your hands anymore." At the end, Xiao Siqi also showed a trace of pride and pride on his face.

   "This is the first time I heard someone write a song like this." Gong Chen sighed silently in his heart, "It really is a different musical genius."

   "Mr. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, dinner is ready." When Gong Chen wanted to ask anything more, an aunt wearing an apron walked to the living room and said to Xiao Si.

   "Okay, you have worked so hard, Aunt Mei." Ye Jiaying stood up and said. In the past two years, the studio has developed better and better, with more and more things, and Ye Jiaying's own acting career has also been developing, so she can't cook for Xiao Siqi at home every day. But she would never let the two of them live on takeaways for a living, so she hired an aunt who cooks at home. When she was too busy to cook or was unable to come back from filming in other places, she invited an aunt who cooks at home. Auntie will come to cook.

   "If there is nothing else, I will leave first, and I have to go back and cook for the family." The aunt said while untying her apron.

   "Well, be careful on the road." Ye Jiaying nodded and greeted him. After watching the cooking aunty leave, she turned and walked up the stairs, "I'm going to ask Baqi to come and eat."

   "Let's go, let's eat." Xiao Siqi also greeted Gong Chen to the dining room.

"Let’s take a look at the lyrics and music. I’ll finish the arrangement and soundtrack first." After a short break after dinner, Xiao Yao handed Gong Chen a few pieces of score paper. He was about to turn around and leave, and then suddenly asked again. "By the way, I forgot to say it just now. This is an English song. At your age, you are a singer again. English should be fine, right?"

   "It should be okay," Gong Chen nodded. "Although I have signed a contract with a record company as a singer, I am actually still a student. I am now a senior in the Foreign Languages ​​College and majored in English."

   "It turned out to be a high-achieving student at a foreign language university, so it's okay. The lyrics are still quite simple, and it must be no problem for someone who majors in English like you." Xiao Yao smiled happily. Although I have watched Gong Chen's performance video before and participated in the show together, Xiao Yao hasn't really checked Gong Chen's information. All he knows about her is in music. Since Gong Chen had never sang an English song on the show before, Xiao Yao would have this question.

   "Let me take a look." Seeing Xiao Yao left and went to the recording studio, Xiao Siqi also looked at the lyrics and music scores in Gong Chen's hand.

  "Why don't you read it first?" Gong Chen handed a few pieces of paper to Xiao Siqi.

"Don't affect others," Ye Jiaying came out of the kitchen after finishing the dinner and tableware, and said to Xiao Siqi with a slight complaint, "Anyway, they are practicing at home tonight. Are you afraid that you won't see it? There are no songs written by Bayi before. Seeing you are so anxious to watch."

"Didn't you see that Xiao Yao's attitude towards this song is not the same? I am curious too." Xiao Siqi smiled, "I will scan it again, it will only take a few minutes, and it won't take much time." Then, Xiao Siqi took the score and looked at it quickly.

   "It really feels different from the songs Xiao Yao wrote before." Xiao Siqi finished reading quickly and returned the score to Gong Chen, closed his eyes and felt it, and then opened his eyes.

"But I feel a bit like the female voice part I was in charge of in the song Xiao Yao sang for me and Chen Chen last time." opinion.

"Really?" Xiao Siqi said strangely, "It's the song you recorded yesterday, I haven't heard it yet. Xiao Yao wrote a song "There is a kind of warmth called sisters" to Chen Chen and Fan Linxuan. It is also a combination of female vocals and male raps with electronic soundtrack. I think your song should be of the same type."

"I’ve heard Chen Chen and Fan Linxuan’s "There’s a kind of warmth to call my sisters". The composition of the two songs is similar. I was responsible for singing and Chen Chen was responsible for rap. But the female voices feel very different in singing. My female voice is not the warmth of Fan Linxuan, but ethereal and cold, a little dreamy. This song is all female solo singers, which seems to amplify this feeling to the extreme." Gong Chen said.

   "Listening to you, even I am curious about this song, can you let me see it too?" Ye Jiaying also interrupted. Although not a particularly professional singer, Ye Jiaying has also released a music album somehow, and there are two professional musicians in the family, her musical literacy is also good under the influence of ears, and the skill of reading music is naturally not a problem.

   "Cut~ You said me just now." Xiao Siqi seized the opportunity to counterattack.

  Ye Jiaying ignored Xiao Siqi, took over Gong Chen's score and hummed quietly while watching.

   "The melody is pretty good, but I don't know what Xiao Yao's arrangement and soundtrack will look like." After humming, Ye Jiaying said.

   "The element of electronic sound is definitely indispensable anyway," Xiao Siqi said, "The program that Gong Chen participated in, electronic sound is a must."

  At this time, Xiao Siqi put the phone on the table and rang. Xiao Siqi took a look, smiled and said, "Xiao Yao said that the soundtrack is ready, let us listen to it." After that, he smiled and cursed: "This guy is too lazy to be too lazy, upstairs at home. The people downstairs still send messages, and they don’t even bother to walk just a few steps."

"But he does exercise so diligently every morning. This son, we really don't know what to say about him." Ye Jiaying also smiled and said to Gong Chen, "Let's go, listen. The recording studio at home is in the basement, just right. I will show you the way."

  "Are you going too?" Xiao Siqi looked at Ye Jiaying and said.

   "Why? I can't go?" Ye Jiaying said, "You also said that Bayi's song seems to have a different meaning to him. I am curious as a mother, of course I want to listen to it together."

Several people came to the recording studio. Xiao Yao was sitting in front of the console in the operating room with headphones on one ear. He was obviously listening to the finished product of his own accompaniment and soundtrack.

   Seeing the three of them come in together, Xiao Yao did not show the slightest surprise. He seemed to have expected that his parents would be tempted to run down to listen to his song. So he simply said: "The accompaniment is ready, please listen to it."

  Speaking, Xiao Yao operated on the console, unplugged the earphones, and connected the audio files inside to the external audio equipment.

  An original piano sound rang, and the melody of electronic music was added to the accompaniment almost half a minute later, and the whole piece turned from the expansive and elegant beginning to a dreamlike feeling. Then the sound of electronic percussion slowly appeared in the accompaniment, until the original drum kit was added, the melody of the entire electronic sound became intense, and the whole piece began to give people a psychedelic feeling... As the music played, the four people in the studio were completely immersed in the music.

  "Is this the so-called Trance? It really is the music that can make people "struck"." After the accompaniment was played, Xiao Siqi, who was the first to recover, sighed.

   "It's really good," Ye Jiaying also said, "In terms of the creation of electronic music, I think Bayi you are now better than your dad."

"My dad? He doesn't play electronic music very much at all. Even if electronic music appears in his song, it is pitiful. Isn't it normal to surpass him?" Xiao Yao pouted, "He is not in this style at all. There is no comparison."

Xiao Siqi smiled and said: "I used to see you proposed to form a "women's band" and write tunes for them, as well as your own "Huatian Mistakes", "New Royal Concubine Drunkenness", and "Yenching Natives" for Chen Chen. I thought you The style is a combination of folk music and modern pop music, but now after listening to this song, I found that this kind of psychedelic electronic music seems to be the style that suits you best."

  "Don't define me." Xiao Yao shook his head and smiled, "My style is no style, I think of which one is it. Look at my original album, what kind of style do you think it is?"
