Entertaining Children

  Chapter 495 Meeting Ceremony

  The reason why Xiao Yao was able to help Tang Jingjing take a single cover photo is because the recording of several songs as background music has come to an end. The two songs of Xu Yuan and Fan Linxuan have been recorded in full with the help of Xiao Siqi. You only need to add some special sound effects to match the scene of the press conference. The accompaniment of your own "Vincent" is relatively simple, mainly guitar sound. He had already recorded and played and sang in the evening. Now only Tang Jingjing's song is left, and most of it has been recorded, and there is still enough time to complete it in half a day.

  Yin Xi is in charge of the publicity of the press conference, so don’t worry about Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao has been following up on the layout of the conference site. It is estimated that it can be completed tomorrow afternoon. There will be half a day left for tomorrow morning. Xiao Yao didn't want to waste a cover photo for Tang Jingjing.

Pei Minyi went out for a lap in accordance with Xiao Yao's instructions. The main task of those designers now is to make small details of the dozen or so sets of clothes to be displayed. These few days have been basically completed, just waiting for the press conference to be held. Now, there is no important and urgent work at hand, so I naturally agreed to the work that Xiao Yao ordered and acted immediately. As for Chen Xuan, with his level and shooting speed, more than a dozen models' promotional photos have also been taken. He had nothing to do with him. He heard that he wanted to help his photography student's music student take a single cover photo, and he agreed in pain. , And ran to the recording studio in the afternoon to watch Tang Jingjing's recording, and observed the subject she wanted to shoot.

  The next day, Tang Jingjing, who had finished recording the song, was taken by Xiao Yao into the studio of Yin Xi’s studio.

  The cover photo for Tang Jingjing was taken by Chen Xuan, and Xiao Yao became a photography assistant for Chen Xuan again after many years. Such a lineup of photographers also attracted the models who took the promotional photos of the press conference, including Yin Xi, to flock to the studio to watch.

  I entered such a professional studio for the first time, and saw so many tall and beautiful model sisters on the sidelines. Even Tang Jingjing, who had been on a large outdoor performance stage like the Children’s Music Festival, felt a little nervous. Fortunately, this filming was not like recording a song. The parents who negotiated her contract with Qi Jia Studio were also accompanied. Although Tang Jingjing was nervous, she seemed calm on the surface.

  After entering the studio, Tang Jingjing was taken by the costume designer to the dressing room and put on a light blue double-shoulder dress Xiao Yao chose for her. After she came out, Xiao Yao, who was acting as a stylist, did her own makeup and hairstyle. When she stood under the lights in the shooting area of ​​the studio, Tang Jingjing's parents felt a little bit unable to recognize her daughter.

It’s not that the makeup that Xiao Yao put on her was too exaggerated and made her lose her original face, but that her current clothing, makeup, and hairstyle have a greater impact on her temperament, plus the different angles and functions of the shooting area. Tang Jingjing’s parents felt strange to her daughter because of the visual effects produced by the various lights.

To say that Tang Jingjing’s parents took Tang Jingjing to participate in TV shows, and also participated in large-scale performances. It is not that they have not seen the show group or the stylist costumer of the show organizer dressing up their daughter, but never in the studio this time. The feeling inside is amazing.

  In addition to preparing costumes and designing styling, Xiao Yao also deliberately got a microphone as a prop and placed it in front of Tang Jingjing. Looking at the daughter standing behind a retro-style all-in-one microphone in the shooting area, they also clearly felt that Xiao Yao is not just a musical genius, and his reputation as an international fashion photographer is definitely not an understatement. . My daughter follows him, so she can learn more than just music.

"Hmm...I heard that Xiao Yao is a photographer, but I didn't expect him to be so good as a stylist. Girls love beauty. If Jingjing can learn Xiao Yao's skill, it will be very useful. I just don't know. When Xiao Yao takes pictures and designs for people in the future, will he be willing to also bring Jingjing. This seems to have not been discussed with Xiao Yao, it seems that I have to find some time to talk with Xiao Yao." Tang Jingjing's mother Secretly decided in my heart.

  The cover photo is not a photo. Only one photo will be used. Chen Xuan, who has a higher production rate than Xiao Yao, only took three photos and stopped. It took more than half an hour to dress up. As a result, the shutter snapped three times when taking pictures, and it was over in less than five minutes. This also made Tang Jingjing's parents who were onlookers speechless for a while. But thinking that Xiao Yao had introduced to them that Chen Xuan was a teacher who taught him photography, and his level was higher than him. As a photographer, he was more famous internationally, but they didn't raise any questions.

   "It's finished, you can do the post-processing yourself!" Chen Xuan said to Xiao Yao who was sitting behind the workbench, and began to pack up his own photographic equipment. He still uses wireless transmission. After the photo is taken, it is automatically transmitted to a laptop on the workbench in front of Xiao Yao.

  Compared to Tang Jingjing’s parents, the models who have been cooperating with Chen Xuan during this period are no strangers to Chen Xuan’s style. Hearing Chen Xuan's announcement that the shooting was over, they all gathered behind Xiao Yao and looked at the photo that Chen Xuan had just taken on the laptop.

   Xiao Yao clicked on three photos and looked at them in turn. I have to say that Chen Xuan's photography level is indeed not covered. These three photos all show Tang Jingjing very beautifully and have outstanding temperament. Even the little melancholy requested by Xiao Yao is fully reflected. Every time Xiao Yao looked at one, the models behind would utter a low voice of admiration. If they changed them, they wouldn't know which one to choose.

  But Xiao Yao is not one of them. After some consideration, Xiao Yao quickly selected one of the photos, then opened the image processing software, and began to do post-production on the photos on the spot.

Chen Xuan, who had arranged the photographic equipment, did not leave either, but stood behind Xiao Yao to watch him do the post work of the picture. As a result, after seeing Xiao Yao's post-production for the photos, Chen Xuan said dissatisfiedly: "You kid do this, do you need me to take it?"

  It turned out that Xiao Yao directly blurred Tang Jingjing in the photo, including the microphone in front, to a certain extent, and then covered the entire photo with a picture of sky and clouds. The color of the entire sky, including the clouds, from top to bottom fades from light orange to light cyan. After fusion with the original Tang Jingjing and microphone, Tang Jingjing gives people a hazy feeling of singing in the middle of the clouds. If you don’t enlarge the picture If you look closely, it's hard to see Tang Jingjing's face.

"Of course it's useful." Xiao Yao smiled, "Even if I do some blurring, the things you photograph are different from those photographed by others, including myself. It's because it is. You took it, so I can play like this. Take a closer look.” After speaking, finally added the name of the single and Tang Jingjing to the picture, and Xiao Yao, who completed the single cover photo sample, stood up. I want Chen Xuan to sit down and take a closer look.

"Don't look," Chen Xuan waved his hand. "Anyway, it's okay. I don't want to sign this photo. It's your own business. When the little girl's single comes out, I will buy a single. Go back and watch the song slowly."

   "Oh, that feeling is good." Xiao Yao sat down and said again, "Then I will first thank you for your support and contribute to the sales of Jingjing's physical singles."

"And you guys," Xiao Yao said to the onlookers behind him, "Although there will be no signature on this photo, you people all know it. I made the photographs of Thiel Chen. In the later stage, the single shot will be enough for you to buy a single disc and go back to your collection. Don't miss it when the physical single is released."

   "Let's buy a record for an unsigned photo," Yin Xi couldn't help but smile, "I saw you advertising like this for the first time."

"Isn't it that you models are more interested in photos than music?" Xiao Yao smiled, "but I can guarantee that Jingjing's song is also very good. It can be done at the press conference today and tomorrow. You can hear it during the rehearsal."

   "Jingjing's song? Isn't it the song you wrote?" Yin Xi continued to spit, "You are also Wang Po selling melons and boasting."

   "Am I a prince, I'll see the rehearsal tomorrow." Xiao Yao said, "Speaking of tomorrow's rehearsal, everything on my side is settled. How are your models preparing?"

   "Don't worry, you are all ready." When it comes to business, Yin Xi also nodded seriously.

"Well, that's good." Xiao Yao nodded, and sent the post-production cover photos to the work mailbox of the person in charge of the publicity and distribution department of Qijia Studio, and then combined the three original photos with the post-processed cover photos. Copy a copy to the U disk.

Xiao Yao stood up and handed the USB flash drive with the four photos to Tang's mother, "Jingjing's photos, do you want to collect them too? I copied a copy for you. Now Jingjing is on my side. It’s okay, you can take her back to rest. Jingjing has been working hard to record songs these days. I suggest you take her to play in Shanghai for a few days, and then take her to play on the day of the press conference, and wait until the press conference is over. go back."

   "Okay, thank you!" Mother Tang took the U disk with a smile and thanked Xiao Yao, "I have troubled you too these days."

   "Brother, I am not tired, I still want to play with you." Tang Jingjing approached Xiao Yao by herself.

"Not today." Xiao Yao shook his head. "I will go to the press conference to check the progress of the construction in the afternoon. The place is dangerous for children and cannot take you there. If you want to play, you can come and watch the rehearsal tomorrow. "

   "Oh, all right." Tang Jingjing flattened her mouth, nodded and said, "Then I'll change my clothes first."

   "You don't need to change it." Xiao Yao smiled, "This suit is given to you. You can wear it back."

   "Really? Thank you brother!" The little girl immediately said happily.

  "Isn't this the clothes in the studio?" Father Tang said, "Is this not suitable?"

"This suit is not for studios. Our brand has no plans to make children's clothes for the time being." Xiao Yao smiled, "This is for me to take a single cover photo this time. Last night I asked someone to tailor it to her figure. Yes. This is suitable for a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl. It's useless if I keep it. It's just a gift from me to Jingjing."

   "How embarrassing is this?" Mother Tang also said, "I have only heard of giving gifts to teachers. How can teachers give gifts to students. Would you like to tell us how much the clothes cost and we count them for you?"

"Why not?" Xiao Yao said, "It's quite common for teachers to send meeting gifts to students. Besides, I entrusted the human relationship to the clothes and let people rush to work overnight. It's really hard to calculate the price. By the way, this dress is actually not a formal meeting ceremony, but I kept a useless, handy gift." Xiao Yao waved to Pei Minyi.

   Pei Minyi immediately walked over with a guitar bag.

Xiao Yao took the guitar bag and opened it, took out one of the smaller guitars from it, and handed it to Tang Jingjing, "This is my meeting gift. This is the smallest of all my guitars. I will give it to you. You. Didn’t I say that I want to learn musical instruments? My best musical instruments are piano and guitar. I can’t give you a big guy like piano, so I’ll give you a guitar. You can teach yourself or find another teacher to teach you. I will also teach you how to play if I get the chance."

  Tang Jingjing happily took it, and found that there was a "Tang" written on the back panel of the guitar, and immediately said to his parents happily, "Look, my brother also wrote me words on the guitar."

   "I made this guitar myself," Xiao Yao saw that Tang's mother was about to speak again, and said with a smile, "I don't sell guitars, and this guitar can't count the price."

   "The treatment of this student is really different." Xu Yuan said with envy, "I don't have a guitar that Xiao Yao made by himself."

  The three female singers who appeared in the recording studio yesterday have been fine for the past few days. Yesterday, I heard Xiao Yao arranged to take a cover photo of the little girl. Today, I came back to watch the excitement.

  As for Xiao Yao giving clothes to the little girl, no one envied the singers present. Xiao Yao didn't have the habit of renting performance costumes. Every time he helped others design costumes, he gave them all to the singer himself because he stayed useless as a reason. Whether it was Fan Linxuan, Xu Yuan or Gong Chen, or even Chen Yuhan, who had just sang a song with Xiao Yao on "Good Voice", they received the costumes designed by Xiao Yao.

  When it comes to Xiao Yao giving away musical instruments, he still made it himself. It was the first time for the three of them. Fan Linxuan and Gong Chen didn't know any musical instruments, and didn't respond much to Xiao Yao giving musical instruments to the little girl. Only Xu Yuan, who could play the guitar, couldn't help but speak.

Xiao Yao ignored Xu Yuan’s words and continued to say to Tang’s mother: “You have to move to Shencheng during the summer vacation, so before the summer vacation, I will not specifically ask Jingjing to come over when I record songs. In the past few months. We shouldn’t have a chance to meet again. That’s why I told her to teach her guitar by herself or to find other teachers. By the way, after the press conference, my dad’s studio should arrange for the single release of Jingjing’s song. There may be some publicity activities that require Jingjing's cooperation. According to what we said, I will not interfere with this kind of thing. You will discuss with the studio at that time."

  Tang Jingjing’s parents were a bit speechless. Two meeting gifts were just given, and they moved them so unnecessarily. Then they said that they hadn’t seen each other for a few months. This teacher did...but they had already said it before. They seemed There is no way to say anything about Xiao Yao, he can only nod helplessly.
