"She's on a trip!" Xiao Yao said.

"Huh?" Wang Wen was a little confused, "What kind of revelation is this?"

"She went to Europe and went with my parents to inspect the wedding venue!" Xiao Yao said, "We plan to hold a wedding in the second half of the year!"

"Going to have a wedding?" Wang Wen said in surprise.

Xiao Yao proposed in public at the Chinese Basketball All-Star Celebrity Game at the beginning of the year, and it can be said that it is a logical thing to hold a wedding, but when he heard the specific news, it was quite surprising, and it could definitely be regarded as breaking news.

"When and where is the second half of the year?" Wang Wen asked, "It's already the second half of the year." ”

"It's not decided yet, so it's time to investigate!" Xiao Yao said.

"Your parents and Sun Tingting went to Europe to inspect the wedding venue, but you didn't go?" Wang Wen said strangely.

"I don't have an opinion, they have the final say!" Xiao Yao said.

"So you went to Las Vegas alone?" Wang Wen guessed, "Want to go crazy one last time before you get married?"

"Ha!" Xiao Yao laughed, "What you said is a farewell bachelorette party, right? Now that the wedding venue has not been decided, there must be some time before the date of the ceremony, not to mention whether I will play that or not, don't you think the time is too early? In addition, if I want to have a farewell bachelorette party, I have to pull Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan together, right? How can I come alone?"

"Then why did you go to Las Vegas alone?" Wang Wen asked.

"Say, take a vacation!" Xiao Yao said.

"Why did you go to the casino?" Wang Wen asked.

"Play!" Xiao Yao said, "The casino here is legal, it is a regular tourist project, and many people go there!"

"According to US media reports, you went to nearly 10 casinos in just a few days, and you spent as little as six or seven hours a day in the casinos, and sometimes nearly 10 hours a day," Wang said.

"Is it true?" Xiao Yao smiled, "Are you interviewing or interrogating prisoners?"

"Okay, I'm not the right word!" Wang Wen said, "Are you in Las Vegas, like in those reports?"

"Yes!" Xiao Yao said, "Is there any problem?"

"What are you doing in the casino?" Wang Wen asked.

"What else can you do in a casino?" Xiao Yao laughed.

"Don't you think you've been to too many casinos, stayed too long, and become a little addicted to them?" Wang Wen asked.

"What is addiction? I go to the casino to play for several days during my vacation, which is called addiction?" Xiao Yao said, "I get up at six o'clock in the morning every morning, exercise in the hotel gym in the morning, then eat breakfast, go to the casino in the morning, come out for lunch at noon, go to the casino in the afternoon, come out for dinner in the evening, sometimes go to the casino in the evening, sometimes go to the show or go to the bar or do other things, and I will definitely rest in the hotel room before twelve o'clock every night." Such a regular schedule has nothing to do with day and night, sleep and food, right? Do you think it's like indulging in gambling?"

"Why does this sound like going to work?" Wang Wenxin said.

"Well, even if you're not addicted," Wang Wen asked, "don't you think gambling is a bad habit, a very bad behavior?"

"Mahjong, pai gow, poker, there are a lot of people who play any kind of game, right?" Xiao Yao said, "Who dares to say that I have never touched those things since I was a child? During the New Year's holidays, which one does not have the sound of mahjong? It is all dry fighting, no color head, not gambling? Okay, I speak more rigorously, there must be none, but I think at least half of the people dare not say no, right? I don't steal or rob, I use my own money to play in a legal casino, and I don't break the law, how bad is it?"

"I'll admit you're telling the truth, but it's not an act to be encouraged. Wang Wendao.

"I didn't advocate it!" Xiao Yao said, "I didn't let everyone go to the casino!"

"But you're a star, you're a public figure!" Wang said, "The truth is that this matter has been widely known and has had an impact." ”

"So what, should I apologize?" Xiao Yao asked.

"Celebrities are public figures," Wang said, "and public figures enjoy more social resources and should assume more social responsibilities." Your actions have set a very bad example for the public, especially young people, and have caused a very bad impact, which is contrary to the function you should assume. So, what do you think?"

"Heh!" Xiao Yao laughed, "Public figures enjoy more social resources and should assume more social responsibilities." I agree with that, but to say that I set a bad example, and I have caused a bad impact? I don't agree. ”

"Don't talk about the power of role models, learn from them, teach bad children or something!" Xiao Yao continued, "First of all, I think an adult should have basic cognitive ability and discernment. If I go to a casino, will everyone go to the casino to gamble? People who like to gamble will gamble without me, and people who don't like gambling will not gamble with me.

As for children, first, I went to a legal casino, and minors couldn't get in at all, and second, the children's education should be the responsibility of parents, teachers, and guardians. Of course, I don't deny that celebrity idols and the like will have some influence on children, but if gambling is because of celebrities, it can only mean that the parents and guardians of those children are incompetent! ”

"Do you want those parents to use you as a negative teaching material?" Wang Wen asked.

"Actually, I never expected any parent to use me as a positive teaching material for their children!" Xiao Yao said, "I have never been a good child! When I was a child, when I was in school, the teacher would give lectures on it, and I would peek at photography magazines below. In the morning reading class, I should read Chinese and English, and I secretly taught myself Korean and French with a book in my textbook..."

"Huh?" Wang Wen said in surprise.

"I didn't expect it, right?" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "These things were not known to the media before, because many teachers didn't know, and the classmates who knew helped me keep them secret." If the media and the public knew about it at the beginning, shouldn't they also say that I was undisciplined, messy, naughty or something?"

"But I know that your grades are very good, the top student in the college entrance examination, and you have always been the first in your grade in junior high school," Wang Wen said, "I believe you must know how to do other things." Others won't, and naturally won't learn from you. ”

"It makes sense, my grades are good, and the teacher has specially approved that I don't have to hand in my homework, can other students do it?" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "In the same way, I have money, leisure and career, I can make money, I can afford to play in the casino, can others also afford to play in the casino?

"This..."Wang Wen didn't know how to pick it up.

"As a public figure, you should indeed be cautious in your words and deeds, establish a positive image, and spread positive energy to the public. Xiao Yao continued, "If I gather people to gamble in China and am caught breaking the law, I will apologize, but in fact, this is my normal leisure activity, although it is not any positive energy, but I don't think it is anything worth criticizing." ”

"Do you feel that you have been treated unfairly by public opinion?" Wang Wen asked.

"That's not true!" Xiao Yao said, "Everyone has the right to speak again, and they also have the right to express their opinions on something, as long as it is not illegal, it is not rumor-mongering, it is not deliberately undermining the stability and unity of the country, and so on." It's just that recently, there has been a lot of uproar on the Internet in Huaxia because of this matter, and many media reporters have contacted my studio to ask for an interview with me, and my colleagues in the studio also feel that I should stand up and make a formal response, so I will accept your interview. ”

"I've done this and plan to do it for a while. Xiao Yao continued, "If you have any opinions on this, you can continue to express your own opinions." I'm just asking for a point, whether it's support or criticism or it doesn't matter, please try to be on the facts, and don't make personal attacks on people who disagree with you, which will make the Internet look bad. Also, I've made it clear that I don't bother my studio and my team, my family and friends. ”

"The above is my official, official response to this matter!" Xiao Yao asked Wang Wendao, "Wang Ji, do you have any other questions?"

"Can I ask any other questions?" Wang said.

Regarding going to the casino, Wang Wen felt that there was nothing to ask, but it was rare to have a face-to-face interview with Xiao Yao, and Wang Wen didn't want to end it like this.

"Yes," Xiao Yao nodded, "but there are two conditions. First, it's early in the morning on my side, and I still have to rest. So this interview lasts a maximum of an hour, and it has to end at the point, and you now have ten minutes left. Second, I don't guarantee that I will answer all the questions you ask. ”

"Okay," Wang Wen said, "First question, I want to know what your relationship is with the American band Immortals? Are you still a member of that band?"

"Why do you ask?" Xiao Yao asked.

"You used to be in Huaxia, and the rest of them were in the United States, and it was normal for you to rarely do activities together," Wang Wen asked, "But I heard that the band Immortals is now touring in the United States, and you are now on vacation, which means that you are free, and you are in the United States, but you are not touring with the band, but you are alone in Las Vegas to go to the casino, why?"

"Because I'm lazy!" Xiao Yao smiled, "I've been filming for more than two months, and I need to relax and rest." Touring is tiring, how can you go to the casino to have fun?"

"Look," Xiao Yao added with a smile, "From this incident, it can also be shown that I am not an idol who works hard, works hard, and has positive energy, so don't ask too much of me." ”

"This..."Wang Wen was a little speechless, and changed to another question, "The day after tomorrow is the Billboard Awards Ceremony in the United States, this year's awards ceremony will be held in Las Vegas, and you happen to be in Las Vegas again, will you participate in the Billboard Awards Ceremony the day after tomorrow?"

"I came to the U.S. on vacation, not for work. Xiao Yao said, "I was not invited to this year's Billboard Awards Ceremony, and it has nothing to do with me!"

"In addition to the wedding in the second half of this year, do you have any work plans?" Wang Wen asked.

"Nope. Xiao Yao said, "There is no film and television, and it is difficult to say about music." For me, it's relatively simple to write a song and record a song, maybe when the interest comes or the opportunity arises, I can write a song for someone, record a song, or write and record a single or something, but I definitely don't have a plan to release an album. ”

"By the way, the TV series "Beautiful Sister Who Often Invites Dinner", which has been completed, was made by me with pure music in the soundtrack, and I also created an OST song, sung by Yoon, which has been recorded. Speaking of which, Xiao Yao promoted the TV series in advance by the way, "By the way, the singers of the OST songs of this drama are Lian Yiling, Liang Xueying, Ling Chengjie and Rong Jun. Among them, Ling Chengjie and Rong Jun also have cameo roles in the play. ”

"Wow~" Wang Wen was surprised for a moment, and then smiled, "Xiao Yao, you didn't accept my interview to promote your TV series, right?"

"By the way, by the way!" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Because when it comes to work, I mention it by the way." That drama is still in post-production, and it is still far from being broadcast, far from the time of official publicity. ”

Next, Wang Wen asked some more questions, and when the interview was almost an hour long, Xiao Yao proposed to end the interview.

During the interview, Xiao Yao's computer was open with software on the computer to record the whole process. After the interview, Xiao Yao pulled out the video of the entire interview and compressed it, sent it to the relevant staff of the studio, and went back to the room to rest. After the interview, Xiao Yao handed it over to the studio to deal with, and he didn't care.

The public opinion controversy over the casino in Huaxia is now over for the time being. Xiao Yao and Tim Haggis' schedules have not changed much, and the main activity for the next few days will still be going to the casino.

The next morning, Xiao Yao and Tim Haggis got up early to go to the gym as usual, then went to the hotel restaurant for breakfast, and then went back to the room to take a shower and change clothes.

When Xiao Yao and Tim Haggis went back to the room to take a shower and change clothes, and opened the door to leave for the casino, they unexpectedly saw Amy Hatton standing at the door of the suite and raising her hand to ring the doorbell.

"Ms. Hatton?" Xiao Yao greeted with some surprise.

"Mr. Shaw, Mr. Haggis, good morning!" said Amy Hatton, smiling as she withdrew her hand to ring the doorbell.

"Good morning!" Xiao Yao responded and asked, "Something to do with me?"

"Yes," Amy Hatton smiled and nodded, "is it convenient to go in and talk?"

"Okay, please!" Xiao Yao hesitated, waved his hand and made a gesture of please.

"What to drink?" Xiao Yao asked after inviting Amy Hatton into the living room of the suite, waving her hand to sit down, "We have wine and drinks here, the coffee is only bottled cold coffee, we are ready to go out, there is no hot coffee." ”

"No!" said Amy Hatton, "I know you go out to the casino every day around this time, and I won't delay you for long. ”

"Ha," Xiao Yao smiled, "How can I help you?"

Xiao Yao already knew that Nicky Thompson and Matt Dino had hired private investigators to follow him, so it was not surprising for Amy Hatton to know that he went out at about this point every day, and he was going to the casino, and he was curious about the purpose of Amy Hatton's visit.

"I'm sorry for what Nicky and Matt did to you. Amy Hatton said, "I can't take care of Matt Dino's affairs, but Nicky, I'm responsible." I'm here today to apologize to you on her behalf. ”

"Apologize? Xiao Yao shook his head and said.

"I know that the apology should be made by Nikki herself, and it is very insincere for me to apologize on her behalf. Amy Hatton said, "Actually, Nicky now thinks she's gone too far, but she can't pull her face to apologize to you right now." I have come to you to express our intention and sincerity in wanting to repair relations with you. ”

"Heh~" Xiao Yao smiled, "How are you going to express it?"

"We'd like to invite you to tomorrow night's Billboard Awards!" said Amy Hatton.

"What?" Xiao Yao said in surprise.

"Don't get me wrong!," Amy Hatton said quickly, "I know you've turned Nicky down, but I'm not asking you to be Nicky's guitarist to perform with her, I'm inviting you to the show." Billboard is one of the top music awards in the United States, the artists who won the awards are very big, the performers at the awards ceremony are also top-notch, and the live performance is of a very high standard. Even if you're not interested in the results, you can see it as a high-level show. ”

"You invited me to be an audience?" Xiao Yao said.

"Certainly not the average audience. "Nicky was a nominee and presenter for several of this year's Billboard awards, and the organizers allowed her to bring her family and friends along with her, and arranged the seats. These positions are next to Nicky's seat, in the middle front row of the auditorium, surrounded by celebrities, and it is a good place to watch the show, and the camera will also take pictures. We're going to give two of them to you and Mr. Haggis, and invite you to the show. ”
