Chapter 168: The Greeting Ceremony

The reason why Xiao Yao was able to think about helping Tang Jingjing take the cover photo of the single was because the recording of several songs as background music had come to an end. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Xu Yuan and Fan Linxuan's two songs have been recorded in full with the help of Xiao Siqi, and they only need to add some special sound effects in order to match the scene of the press conference. Now there is only Tang Jingjing's song left, which has been recorded for most of the time, and there is still half a day to complete it.

Yin Xi is in charge of the publicity of the press conference, so Xiao Yao doesn't have to worry about it. Xiao Yao has been following the progress of the layout of the press conference, and it is estimated that it can be completed tomorrow afternoon, and there is still half a day of time tomorrow morning, so Xiao Yao doesn't want to waste it to help Tang Jingjing take a cover photo.

Pei Minyi went out for a run according to Xiao Yao's instructions, and the main task of those designers now is to make some small details to change the dozen sets of clothes to be displayed, which has been basically completed in the past few days, just waiting for the press conference to be held, there is no important and urgent work at hand, and the work ordered by Xiao Yao is naturally full of promises and immediate action. As for Chen Xuan, with his level and shooting speed, more than a dozen models have already been filmed in promotional photos, and when he heard that he was going to help the music students of his photography students take cover photos of singles, he also agreed very painfully, and came to the recording studio in the afternoon to watch Tang Jingjing's recording, and observed the object he wanted to shoot.

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

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

It was the first time to enter such a professional studio, and to see so many tall and beautiful model sisters watching, even Tang Jingjing, who had appeared on the stage of a large-scale open-air performance at a children's music festival, felt a little nervous. Fortunately, this shooting is not like recording a song, and her parents, who negotiated her contract with Qi Jia Studio, also came with her, although Tang Jingjing was nervous, she looked calm on the surface.

After entering the studio, Tang Jingjing was taken to the dressing room by the costume designer and changed into a light blue double-shoulder dress selected by Xiao Yao for her. After coming out, Xiao Yao, who acted as a stylist, made up and styled her hair by himself, and when she stood under the light in the shooting area of the studio, Tang Jingjing's parents felt a little unrecognizable of their daughter.

It's not that Xiao Yao's makeup for her is too exaggerated and makes her lose her original appearance, but her current clothing, makeup, and hairstyle have a great impact on her whole temperament, coupled with the visual effects produced by various lights from different angles and different functions in the shooting area, so that Tang Jingjing's parents have a sense of strangeness when they see their daughter.

To say that Tang Jingjing's parents have taken Tang Jingjing to participate in TV shows and large-scale performances, it is not that they have not seen the stylist and costumer of the program team or the performance organizer dress up their daughter, but there is no time that they feel amazing in the studio this time.

In addition to preparing costumes and designing styling, Xiao Yao also specially got a microphone as a prop and put it in front of Tang Jingjing. Looking at their daughter standing behind a retro-style vertical integrated microphone in the shooting area, they also clearly felt that Xiao Yao is not only a musical genius, but also that his reputation as an international fashion photographer is definitely not in vain. With his daughter following him, 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, and if Jingjing can learn Xiao Yao's ability, it will also be very useful. I just don't know if Xiao Yao will be willing to bring Jingjing when he takes pictures and designs people in the future. I don't seem to have discussed this with Xiao Yao, so it seems that I have to find some time to talk to Xiao Yao again. Tang Jingjing's mother secretly decided in her heart.

The cover photo is not a photo, there is only one photo that will be used, and 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, but the shutter clicked three times to take a picture, and it was over in less than five minutes, which also made Tang Jingjing's parents who were watching speechless for a while. However, thinking that Xiao Yao had introduced Chen Xuan to them as a teacher who taught him photography, his level was higher than him, and as a photographer, his international reputation was much better than his, so they did not raise any questions.

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

Compared with Tang Jingjing's parents, the models who have been working with Chen Xuan during this time are no longer surprised by Chen Xuan's style. Hearing Chen Xuan announce the end of the shooting, they all gathered behind Xiao Yao and looked at the photo that Chen Xuan had just taken on the laptop.

Xiao Yao clicked on the three photos and took turns to look at them. I have to say that Chen Xuan's photography level is indeed not covered, these three photos all take Tang Jingjing very beautifully and have an outstanding temperament, and even the little melancholy that Xiao Yao asked for is also vividly reflected. Every time Xiao Yao looked at one, the models behind him would let out a small sigh of admiration, if they were replaced, they wouldn't know which one to choose.

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

Chen Xuan, who had sorted out his photographic equipment, did not leave, but stood behind Xiao Yao and watched him start the post-production of the picture. As a result, seeing the post-production of Xiao Yao's photo, Chen Xuan said dissatisfiedly: "You kid is doing this, can you let me take it?"

It turned out that Xiao Yao directly blurred Tang Jingjing in the photo and even the microphone in front of him to a certain extent, and then covered the whole photo with a picture of sky and clouds. The color of the entire sky, including the clouds, from top to bottom, gradually changed from light orange to light cyan, and after merging with the original Tang Jingjing and the microphone, Tang Jingjing as a whole gave people a hazy feeling of singing in the middle of the clouds.

"Of course I do. Xiao Yao smiled, "Even if I do some blurring, what you shoot is still different from what other people, including myself, shoot." It's because you took it that I was able to play like this. You take a closer look. As he spoke, he finally added the name of the single and Tang Jingjing's name to the picture, and Xiao Yao, who had completed the sample of the cover photo of the single, simply stood up and wanted Chen Xuan to sit down and take a closer look.

"Don't look at it," Chen Xuan waved his hand and said, "Anyway, I won't sign this photo, it's your own business to get it." When the little girl's single came out, I went to buy a single disc and read it slowly. ā€

"Yo, that's a good feeling. Xiao Yao sat down again and said, "Then I will thank you in advance for your support and contribute to the sales of Jingjing's physical single disc." ā€

"And you," Xiao Yao said to the onlookers behind him, "Although there will be no signature on this photo, you people all know it." Thiel Chen's photographs, I did the post-production, and this photo is enough for you to buy a single disc and collect it. When the physical single is released, don't miss it. ā€

"Let's buy a record for an unsigned photo," Yin Xi couldn't help but laugh, "It's the first time I've seen you advertise like this." ā€

"Isn't that why you models are more interested in photos than in music?" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "but I can guarantee that Jingjing's song is also very good, and it can be done at the press conference today, and you can hear it at the rehearsal tomorrow." ā€

"Jingjing's song? It's not a song you wrote?" Yin Xi continued to complain, "You are also a princess selling melons, selling yourself and boasting." ā€

"Whether I am a princess or not, I will see tomorrow in the rehearsal. Xiao Yao said, "Speaking of tomorrow's rehearsal, everything on my side has been done, how are your models preparing?"

"Don't worry, you're all set. When it came to business, Yin Xi also nodded with a straight face.

"Well, that's good. Xiao Yao nodded, sent the finished cover photo to the work mailbox of the person in charge of the publicity department of Qi Jia Studio, and then copied the three original photos and the cover photos that had been post-processed into the USB flash drive.

Xiao Yao stood up, handed the USB flash drive with four copies of the photos to Tang's mother and said, "Jingjing's photos, you also want to collect them, right? I'll give you a copy." Now that Jingjing is on my side, you can take her back to rest. It's been very hard for Jingjing to record songs these days, so I suggest you take her to play in Shencheng for a few days, and then bring her to play on the day of the press conference, and then go back when the press conference is over. ā€

"Okay, thank you!" Tang's mother took the USB flash drive with a smile and thanked Xiao Yao, "I've been bothering you these days." ā€

"Brother, I'm not tired, I still want to play with you. Tang Jingjing came to Xiao Yao and said.

"Not today. Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "I will go to the press conference site in the afternoon to check the construction progress." It's a dangerous place for children, and you can't take it there. If you want to play, you can come over tomorrow for the rehearsal. ā€

"Oh, well. Tang Jingjing flattened her mouth, but nodded and said, "Then I'll go change my clothes first." ā€

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

"Really, thank you, brother!" said the little girl with immediate delight.

"Isn't this the clothes in the studio?" said Daddy Tang, "It's not appropriate, is it?"

"This outfit is not for the studio, and our brand has no plans to make children's clothing for the time being. Xiao Yao smiled, "This is the cover photo of the single I took this time, and I specially asked someone to order it according to her figure last night." This is suitable for a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, and it is useless for me to keep it, so it will be regarded as a gift from me to Jingjing. ā€

"What's so embarrassing about this?" Tang's mother also said, "I've only heard of giving gifts to teachers, how can any teacher give gifts to students." Why don't you tell us how much the dress is, and we'll give it to you?"

"Why not?" Xiao Yao said, "It's quite common for teachers to give gifts to students." Besides, this dress is something I entrusted with a personal relationship in it, and let the family rush to work overnight, and it's really hard to calculate the price. By the way, this dress is actually not a formal greeting gift, but a useless gift that I keep for myself. With that, Xiao Yao beckoned to Pei Minyi.

Pei Minyi immediately walked over with a guitar bag.

Xiao Yao took the guitar bag and opened it, took out a relatively small guitar from it, handed it to Tang Jingjing and said, "This is my meeting gift." This is the smallest guitar I have ever had, and I give it to you. Didn't you say you want to learn a musical instrument? My best instruments are the piano and the guitar, I can't give away the piano, so I'll give you a guitar, you can learn by yourself first, or you can find another teacher to teach you first, and if you have the opportunity in the future, I will also teach you to play. ā€

Tang Jingjing happily took it and found that there was a "Tang" character written on the panel on the back of the guitar, and immediately said happily to her parents, "Look, my brother also wrote on the guitar for me." ā€

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

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

The three female singers who appeared in the recording studio yesterday have been fine for the past few days, and yesterday I heard that Xiao Yao arranged to take a cover photo of the little girl, and today I came to see the excitement again.

To say that Xiao Yao gave the little girl clothes, no one was envious of the several singers present. Xiao Yao has no habit of renting costumes, and every time he helps others design the costumes he gets, he gives them all to the singer himself on the grounds that it is useless to stay. Whether it was Fan Linxuan, Xu Yuan, or Gong Chen, or even Chen Yuhan, who had only sung a song with Xiao Yao on "The Voice", they all received the performance costumes designed by Xiao Yao for them.

But when it comes to Xiao Yao's musical instruments, he made them himself, and the three of them are the first time they have seen them. Fan Linxuan and Gong Chen didn't know how to play musical instruments, and they didn't react much to Xiao Yao's gift of musical instruments to the little girl, only Xu Yuan, who could play the guitar, couldn't help but open his mouth.

Xiao Yao ignored Xu Yuan's words and continued to say to Tang's mother: "It's time for you to move to Shencheng for the summer vacation, so before the summer vacation, I won't specifically call Jingjing over when I record songs." We shouldn't have a chance to meet again in a few months, which is why I asked her to teach herself guitar or find another teacher to teach. By the way, after the press conference, my dad's studio should arrange for the release of the single of Jingjing's song, and there may be some promotional activities that require Jingjing's cooperation. ā€

Tang Jingjing's parents were a little speechless. This just gave two meeting gifts, which moved them so much that they didn't want to, and then said that they hadn't seen each other for a few months, and this teacher did... However, this matter was indeed something they had already said before, and they didn't seem to be able to say anything about Xiao Yao, so they could only nod helplessly.
