Chapter Sixty-Seven: Everywhere You Go, You're the Boss
"Hey, it's just a fake kiss, you don't need to be so excited. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Xiao Yao let go of Zhou Jingyi and rolled his eyes at the dance team members.
"But it looks like you're actually kissing. TJ argued. This kind of fake kissing technique is indeed very rare in the United States. In the American film and television industry, most of the actors come directly to the real thing, so naturally they don't need this kind of skill. It's not that American actors are more dedicated, it's just that the cultures of the two countries are different.
"You buns of American buns who have never seen the world!" Xiao Yao complained in his heart.
"Jan, why am I standing here in the audience like them? I don't even see how you do it, aren't you going to teach me?" asked Paul, as if he had suddenly come to his senses.
"Oh, because I just remembered that the plot of this dance is that after you find out that you have been bitten, you ask Kim to stay away from you, and even kill you, but Kim is unwilling, it is she who takes the initiative to kiss you, not you to kiss her, so you don't have to learn, just cooperate with her. Xiao Yao said with a smile.
"But I think it's hard to grasp this movement, it's hard to control at such a close distance. Zhou Jingyi came back to her senses from a slight trance, recalled Xiao Yao's actions just now, and frowned. Xiao Yao and her lips were always kept at a distance of only a few centimeters just now, if it was in a fierce dance, she didn't have the confidence to keep a good distance like Xiao Yao.
"It's okay, I can teach you another way, you don't have to grasp the distance, you can kiss it directly. As he spoke, Xiao Yao held Zhou Jingyi's face with both hands, quietly pressed his thumb on her lips, and then kissed the back of his thumb fiercely.
"Wow!" Because when Xiao Yao held Zhou Jingyi's face, he tilted Zhou Jingyi's face slightly to his left, and the dancers on the right didn't notice the cattiness on Xiao Yao's thumb at all. Seeing Xiao Yao kissing so hard, and even taking Zhou Jingyi to take a step back, it was hard for everyone to believe that this kiss was also fake.
"Alright, now that the fake kissing technique is over, let's do what you have to do, and now I'm going to start explaining the specific dance moves to Kim and Paul. Xiao Yao smiled and said to the dancers who were watching the excitement.
"Cut~" Everyone didn't look lively and good-looking, and some boring dispersed. Only TJ patted Paul on the shoulder with interest and asked, "You remember to tell me how Jan did those two kisses." ”
Unlike the cheerful tone of the opening pas de deux of the first part, the music at the end is slightly sadder. In addition to the regular hip-hop dance movements, the novelty lies in Zhou Jingyi's modern dance moves.
Not many hip-hop dancers can do it just by lying flat on the ground and straightening up the upper body by bending the back force, but this is a relatively conventional action in modern dance. Therefore, the modern dance moves designed by Xiao Yao seem incredible to Paul, but for Zhou Jingyi, who is a student of modern dance, it is not too difficult.
One of the most novel moves in this dance is when Paul reaches out and pushes Kim away, holding his arm straight and still. Kim followed the arm, using his neck as the fulcrum, through several successive rotations from Paul's palm to Paul's shoulder, and finally hugged Paul from behind, and during the rotation process, Kim's neck and Paul's arm were always in contact and could not be separated. This movement has never been seen even in modern dance, and it is not difficult for Jin to do it, but he is also amazed by Xiao Yao's creativity.
The movements of modern dance are basically done by Zhou Jingyi, and Paul is mainly used for lifting, as long as he can lift or catch Zhou Jingyi, he does not need to do the dance movements of modern dance. It may seem that Paul's work was simple, but it was not so easy to accomplish.
"Jan, this move is too difficult, I don't have confidence. After Xiao Yao explained to them one of the most difficult moves, Paul said with some concern, "The main thing is that this action is too dangerous, I'm afraid that Jin will be injured, I suggest you replace or cancel this action altogether." ”
Paul said that this action refers to Zhou Jingyi to run from five or six meters away, and then jump up and pounce on Paul, Paul needs to catch Zhou Jingyi's abdomen with the arm of his right hand, let Zhou Jingyi's whole body stand up and hang on his arm, and after a second, Paul will throw Zhou Jingyi out with force, so that Zhou Jingyi will fly back in the opposite direction. Zhou Jingyi flew back at a height equal to the height of the air when she pounced, and at the same time, she had to do some foot pedaling movements when she was in the air, and finally landed safely.
Paul's catching and throwing both actions require a lot of strength, which is not a big problem for him, but he has little confidence in accuracy, whether it is not caught or the timing and power of the throw are wrong, it may make Zhou Jingyi fall directly from the air.
This action is the action that Xiao Yao remembered the most when he watched the American version of "Dancing in the World" in his previous life, and the picture of the female dancer rising up and pounced on the male dancer without hesitation gave Xiao Yao a great shock, so Xiao Yao unconsciously put this action into the current dance. After Paul's words, Xiao Yao also realized the difficulty and danger of this action, and began to hesitate in his heart.
But the movements of this whole dance took Xiao Yao three days to scrape his stomach and scrape his stomach to match the music, if it is removed, there will be problems with the length of the music, and the plot will not be so smooth, if you want to replace it and replace it with other movements, Xiao Yao can't think of any suitable movements for a while.
"No problem, I like this action very much, I think we can try it, pay more attention to safety when practicing, and we take it slowly step by step, speed, height, we all practice slowly from low to high, it should still be able to be completed. Seeing Xiao Yao's hesitant and embarrassed expression, Zhou Jingyi spoke. In fact, she didn't want to give up this action in her heart.
"I won't practice this move for the time being, and I won't cancel it for the time being, let me think about whether there is a safer way. Xiao Yao said.
"Alright, guys!" Xiao Yao decided to put this issue aside for the time being, clapped his hands and gathered all the dance team members together, "Let's get here first today." Everyone has memorized the movements I explained and demonstrated just now, right?"
Seeing that everyone nodded, Xiao Yao continued: "In the past two days, everyone will practice these movements first, and I will come back in the afternoon the day after tomorrow, and we will practice together at that time." ”
"OK, no problem. Everyone responded.
Rick reminded Xiao Yao uneasily, "Yang, do you remember that you said you were going to surprise us, the day after tomorrow?"
"Yes, it's the day after tomorrow. Xiao Yao nodded, "Don't worry, I won't forget." ”
"Besides, let me remind Rick that you eight zombie jumpers, when you come the day after tomorrow, you'd better prepare a change of clothes. Xiao Yao reminded the eight people again, and then waved goodbye to everyone: "Guys, see you the day after tomorrow." ”
On the return car, Xiao Yao was still sitting in the co-pilot's seat, and Dean, George, and Mike were still squeezed in the back seat.
"Are you bored?" Xiao Yao asked his fellow bandmates with a smile.
"I didn't expect you to explain individual movements to them today, and if you don't watch the joint practice, you don't know what this dance looks like at all, which is really not very interesting. Dean replied frankly, "But many of your individual movements also seem to be very innovative, and many of them have never been seen before, so they are not boring." ”
"When I come back the day after tomorrow, I should be able to see this dance in the same way, right?" said George, "I will come back the day after tomorrow." ”
"Okay," Xiao Yao agreed with a smile.
"Hey, that's a quick promise. Mike laughed, then said to Dean and the others, "Do you think Jan has become the boss of that dance team?" He's only joined on the first day today. ”
"Really," Dean nodded, "but that's normal. Isn't it the same for our band now? Although I didn't say it explicitly, isn't it all about our band now that Yang is helping us make decisions? He was also the last to join our band, and it didn't take long. ”
"Therefore, people who have the ability are the boss everywhere. You can convince others, and they will naturally listen to you. George also concluded.
"Hey guys, I just want everyone to be better. Xiao Yao raised his hand and said.
"For the sake of everyone's better, what about you? What are the benefits of you doing this?" Samion also glanced sideways at Xiao Yao and said.
"I'm just here to have fun and have fun. Xiao Yao smiled.
"By the way, I just heard them say that you want to surprise them, what is it?" Dean asked Xiao Yao curiously, thinking of Rick's expectant expression at the end.
"Oh, I'm going to get some special outfits for them. Xiao Yao said.
"Clothes, so you're going to pay for them to buy clothes yourself? Why don't you let them buy them themselves?" said Dean, "even if you're afraid they won't be able to buy them and won't meet your requirements, you'll have to let them pay you to buy them for you." ”
"No, not to buy, but to do. Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "Didn't you hear that I asked them to prepare an extra set of clothes? ”
"Let me guess, you're going to prepare a zombie costume for those eight zombie guys, tattered, bloodstained, and even a few traces of smoke and fire?" said George.
Xiao Yao looked back at George in surprise, then gave a thumbs up and said, "Man, amazing!"
"Really?" George himself glared, "You can still make a zombie costume?"
"It's not just the costumes, it's the makeup and styling. Xiao Yao said, "My grandfather is an actor, I spent a lot of time on the set with him when I was a child, and I learned some of those costumes, makeup, styling and so on. Although it is not as good as those awesome people in the "Special Effects Makeup Master" show, it should still be enough to meet the dance needs of this dance team. ”
"Hell, why didn't you say it sooner, if I had known, I'd just come to you and dress me up on Halloween this year, so I could save two hundred dollars on costumes and dress-ups. Dean sighed, "Next year... By the way, Jan, next Halloween, you're going to help me make a zombie look. So I can save money on clothes, and then use the money to treat you to dinner and hang out, how about this proposal?"
"Me too. George and Mike said excitedly.
"Hey, Jan is going to end his exchange career next summer. By Halloween next year, he should already be in Huaxia, can you fly to Huaxia, or let him fly over from Huaxia to do the styling?" Samion poured down a basin of cold water.
"Oh no!" three screams rang out from inside the carriage. (To be continued.) )
