Entertaining Children

  Chapter 678 "Because of You"

"There is a cutting technology called water cutting, also called water jet, which is cutting with high-pressure water jets. The fire water gun I modified on site also uses this principle. Water cutting has two types: sand-free cutting and sand-added cutting. The cutting is finer, and the energy of sand cutting is greater. Cutting hard materials is generally easier to cut with sand." Xiao Yao smiled, "The fire water gun is originally high-pressure water, but the pressure is not strong enough, and there is no sand. Not enough to cut things. What I did was to increase the water pressure and mix fine sand into the water to make it to the extent that it can cut concrete."

  "As for how to use those things to achieve it, I don't think everyone is interested in listening to me taking math and physics classes here, right?" Xiao Yao said at last.

   "Do you mean that we can't understand what you said?" Robin looked at Xiao Yao and said.

   Xiao Yao didn't speak, but just shrugged.

"I think that few people at the scene can understand." Guo Xiaohua said, and looked at Xiao Yao. "But how do you understand this? You are a student of Shen Opera, and the art academy It seems that the school does not have such advanced mathematics and physics courses?"

   "It's not true, I saw it when I read the book myself." Xiao Yao said, "In fact, the mathematical knowledge involved is not very advanced, but it is more closely related to practical applications."

"I read it by myself? That's self-study?" Guo Xiaohua continued, "I know you were the number one in the science college entrance examination in Yanjing last year. When you were a freshman in high school, you also entered the national Olympics training team and almost entered the Olympics national team. When you are sure to go to Shenxi to study, some people feel it is a pity that it was a waste of your good cultural achievements. I didn’t expect that although you were studying in an art college, this knowledge of mathematics and science not only failed, but even more It's amazing, it really is a veritable academic bully."

"In fact, it doesn't matter what waste is not wasted." Xiao Yao smiled, "This society is originally composed of people from all walks of life, and the development of society cannot be separated from the joint efforts and division of labor of people in all industries. Just write. Like this rescue operation, different people have different specialties and division of labor, and everyone can work together to complete this rescue mission. If they are all expert engineers who use their brains to command, they cannot be rescued without the ordinary rescuers who move rocks. So many people come. And acting stars are public figures, with greater influence and appeal, and they will play a bigger role in fundraising than ordinary people. So no matter what you study or do, it’s just your personal life. It’s just a choice. As long as it contributes to society, then life is meaningful, neither good nor bad, nor waste."

"Well said," Luo Bin nodded, and smiled to Xiao Yao, "but this doesn't seem to apply to you. Because you have done too many things in the disaster area. We have talked about carrying stretchers, loading and unloading workers, medical personnel, prospecting personnel, engineering personnel, what else?"

"The first few days were mainly hands-on, and the latter was mainly about talking." Xiao Yao said, "Later, I became a contact person in charge of communicating with foreign rescue teams and translated by the way. In fact, there is nothing to say about this, because I understand foreign languages. I have been abroad and I have had more contact with foreigners, so the headquarters arranged such a job for me. You only need to talk, not hands. The headquarters should take care of me.”

"But you also did a great job." Guo Xiaohua said, "I heard that you don't just speak English, you speak French to French, German to Germans, Japanese to Japanese, and help those foreigners During the rescue process, the team never had any misunderstandings with us due to language communication. By the way, how many languages ​​do you speak?"

   "It seems a lot," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I haven't counted them specifically."

   "I see a photo of you holding your camera in the video just now," Robin said, "You still took pictures?"

   "Yes," Xiao Yao nodded, "You don't need to do it when you are a contact person and a translator. The work is relatively easy, so I also took some photos there."

"I also learned about a situation." Robin said, "As far as we know, after the earthquake, on the road to Wuyou County, there were staff members who prevented private individual rescuers from entering. The reason why you can enter the disaster area is because You told the staff who blocked you that you are a foreign media reporter and you want to go in to report. You also took out the press cards of two foreign media before the staff let you in."

  The middle-aged man who blocked Xiao Yao reported the situation to the leader at that time, but the rescuers were very busy at that time and did not even bother to go to the foreign media reporter. However, this incident was recorded. After the rescue work was over, the relevant person in charge also remembered this when they summarized the work, and even asked the middle-aged person to find out about it. The middle-aged man didn’t know Xiao Yao at the time, but following CCTV news reports and interviews about Xiao Yao, the middle-aged man immediately knew who he was stopping him at the time, and he also took the matter. The report went up.

During the rescue, Xiao Yao did a lot of things, but he never saw what Xiao Yao did in foreign media. Everyone saw him take out the camera only after Xiao Yao made a contact person and an interpreter. Basically, it can be judged. Xiao Yao deceived the staff and got into the disaster area. This kind of thing is relatively negative, and CCTV has only reported positively about Xiao Yao's deeds during the rescue period. When this kind of thing is exposed, it will be a face-slapped CCTV. Therefore, apart from the responsible leader of the rescue command, only some leaders of CCTV knew about this matter, and did not disclose it to other media.

"It's not the press card of two foreign media," Xiao Yao said, "I do have two certificates, one is a special photographer of "World Geography" in the United States, and the other is a photojournalist from "City Pictures" in France. But I can It’s not really reporting for the two foreign media, just to be able to get in."

   "But did you help them with the news report in the end?" Robin then asked.

"I didn't write the news reports," Xiao Yao said. "I just sorted out the photos taken at the scene of the disaster area after the rescue work was over and returned to Shanghai, and I picked some and sent them to them. Those reports are their magazines. The editor of the agency wrote it himself."

   Although there was no plan to report to the two media at the beginning, since the photos were taken, Xiao Yao did not want to waste it. Since getting the certificates of those two companies, Xiao Yao hasn't sent them much photos. This time the incident was a natural disaster, and some foreign media and people were also reporting and paying attention. After Xiao Yao came back to sort out the photos, he also selected some of them and sent them to the two magazines with explanatory text.

"Although you didn't write news reports, they still used your photos in their reports." Robin said, "These two media donated 100,000 U.S. dollars and 100,000 Euros to our China Charity Organization respectively. They said, Most of them are from their readers."

Xiao Yao did not write news reports for the two magazines, but their domestic readers were shocked after reading the reports, especially the photos in them. Many people reported to the magazines that they wanted to help the Chinese victims in the photos. , The two magazines took advantage of the trend to organize a fundraising activity. Then their magazine decided to donate some of it themselves, adding the money donated by readers to round up the whole number, and donating it to China. In this way, Xiao Yao did indeed bring two foreign donations to the people in the disaster area because of his status as a foreign media reporter, so there is no problem with mentioning this at the disaster relief party.

   "Thank you foreign readers and friends!" Xiao Yao bowed to the camera lens again, and then he said, "I will definitely take more good photos for these magazines in the future."

  "One hundred thousand U.S. dollars plus one hundred thousand euros, after converting the exchange rate, it adds up to more than one million." Guo Xiaohua said, "I'm very curious about what the photos you took are like."

   "There will be a chance for everyone to see." Xiao Yao smiled.

"We have said so much, which involved a lot of things, and also involved many of your identities, but we haven’t mentioned your most well-known identity. When you mention you, everyone’s first impression is that of a creator. Singer." Robin said, "Then have you done anything for the disaster area in this regard?"

   "Of course," Xiao Yao said, "After returning from the rescue scene, I also wrote a new song specially."

   "What is the title of the song?" Guo Xiaohua asked.

   "Because of you!" Xiao Yao replied.

   "Our next program is that Xiao Yao will send you this new song written by him." Luo Bin said, "Because of you!"

In the interview process just now, Xiao Yao has been applauded several times because of the interview process. Now I heard Xiao Yao was about to sing, a new song written specifically for this incident, and the applause was also on the spot. It's bigger.

  The interview between the two hosts and Xiao Yao was conducted on one side of the stage. The reason why they did not stand in the center of the stage was because today’s party was also a live show. They stood by to free up the stage to prepare for the performance, so that after the interview, Xiao Yao could walk directly to the middle of the stage to perform, instead of waiting on the stage to make preparations. In fact, long before Robin talked about Xiao Yao's status as a singer, preparations had already been made in the middle of the stage.

  A choir of about twenty people walked onto the stage and stood on the back steps of the stage. Different from the choirs that have appeared before, the members of this choir are all very young, and they all look like a dozen. A uniform white shirt with black trousers or black skirt, dressed like a middle school student. In fact, this is indeed the only choir composed of middle school students at the evening party.

  In front of the student choir is Liang Xueying in a white dress. When Liang Xueying with a microphone in hand appeared, the audience thought that the next show was Liang Xueying's solo, but after Liang Xueying stepped onto the stage, the staff put an empty microphone stand next to Liang Xueying, and then again. A staff member brought up a black electric guitar. Liang Xueying took the electric guitar, but did not carry her back on her body, nor did she install the microphone in her hand on the microphone stand. Instead, she stood in the middle of the stage with the microphone in one hand and the guitar in the other.

  The audience at the original scene was still a little strange, until Robin over there asked Xiao Yao to sing a new song, everyone understood that the guitar and the microphone stand were all prepared for Xiao Yao.

  Xiao Yao walked to the middle of the stage amidst the applause of the audience, first installed the microphone in his hand on the microphone stand, then took the guitar in Liang Xueying's hand, and carried the guitar on his back. But this was not over yet. After Xiao Yao took the guitar on his back, he took out a harmonica from his pocket, held it to his mouth with both hands, and leaned in front of the microphone.

   "Dare to play like this on this occasion?" Seeing Xiao Yao put his guitar on his back and then take out the piano, many viewers at the scene and in front of the TV were surprised and their eyes widened.

  Through the introduction of the previous host, everyone knows that the front row of the audience is full of leaders from cultural, civil affairs, construction and other state departments and agencies directly under the State Council such as radio and television. The atmosphere of the whole party is also very serious. In the previous program, there were a lot of singers who knew musical instruments, but they all sang honestly on the stage, let alone performing with musical instruments, and even seldom did the body movements that they were used to when singing. At this time, Xiao Yao is not only the only singer who dared to play a musical instrument live so far, but he is also different, and it will inevitably surprise some audiences.

  "Woo~" The light above the stage changed a bit, indicating that the program began, and a melodious harmonica sounded at the scene.

  In the beginning part of the prelude, there was only a single harmonica sound, but it was this relatively single harmonica sound that made the audience feel particularly attractive.

After ten seconds of harmonica sound, the piano sounded at the scene, which was added to the prelude, and the last long tail of Xiao Yao’s harmonica sound gradually weakened until it stopped, transitioning the prelude from a pure harmonica sound. It's a pure piano sound. The prelude of the pure piano sound did not last long, and Liang Xueying raised the microphone to her mouth and began to sing gently.

   "I faced the wind and grew up in this city slowly. Because of you, the world is full of moving."

This is a previous song by the Frog Band and Wang Zheng. It is not actually a charity song, but Xiao Yao thinks that this warm and inspirational song is suitable for the people and rescuers in the disaster area, so he regarded this song as a song. Disaster relief charity songs have been brought to this stage.

Although listening enjoyment is not the primary consideration for this show, Xiao Yao’s is a popular song after all, and it is impossible for the program team to match Xiao Yao with a forty or fifty-year-old folk singer to cooperate with him, so The female singers on Xiao Yao's list are all big-name pop female singers in the Chinese music scene.

After   This season of "Singer", Liang Xueying went one step further and ranked among the top ranks, which can be called a queen, and also appeared on this list. She gets along with Xiao Yao very well in "Singer". She has also collaborated with the electronic version of "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" and is the female singer Xiao Yao is most familiar with in that list. At the same time, she is also the youngest female singer on that list. She is about the same age as Yin Xi. She puts some effort in dressing up and looks very harmonious when standing with her partner, so Xiao Yao did not hesitate to choose her to join her. Sing this song in chorus.

  "What does love look like, it has a shape because of you."

  When Liang Xueying sang to the end of the third sentence, the harmonica that had stopped once again rang from the harmonica in Xiao Yao's hand.

   "No one is born with a pair of wings that can fly. Only with love can they spread their wings and fly."

  "Flying~"

  After a short sound of the harmonica, Xiao Yao put the harmonica away and inserted it into the pocket of his clothes. He held the guitar on his back in front of him with both hands, and sang in front of the microphone. When the word "天" was sung, the sound of drums and other instruments sounded in the live accompaniment. Xiao Yao also plucked the strings of his guitar and began to sing while playing. After Xiao Yao sang this sentence, Liang Xueying also repeated the last two words in this sentence and sang along. This song, which had a slightly plain and simple soundtrack in front of it, has also been enriched from this stage.
