"And what if we ask for a harmony to be sung?" Samion suddenly asked in Chinese.

"I said that I sang a song in Chinese..." Xiao Yao replied, suddenly realizing that something was wrong, and exclaimed in Chinese, "I rely on! You can speak Chinese?"

"We all will!" Dean patted Xiao Yao and said in Chinese with a smile, "We all took Chinese courses after entering the university. Surprised, surprised?" Obviously, they didn't just study in class, they must have visited Huaxia's Chinese website, and even knew the popular Internet terms in Huaxia.

"You cows!" Xiao Yao said with a thumbs up. Regardless of the world, Chinese is definitely one of the most difficult languages for foreigners to learn.

"Sammy's Chinese is the best!" Mike pointed to Samyne, "We both started learning Chinese in the first year of college. She entered the university a year before us and studied a year longer than us. ”

"You started studying when you entered college?" Xiao Yao said, "that is, you already said it last summer." Why didn't I hear you talk about it last summer when I was in the United States?"

"Not long after we met, three police officers came to arrest Tiana, and then all your attention was on her, do you care if I can speak Chinese?" Sarmien pouted.

"It's too!" Thinking of what happened last summer, Xiao Yao scratched his hair with some emotion.

"You haven't answered my question. Sarmien asked again, still in Chinese.

Xiao Yao didn't care about her sentence break, and said with a smile, "Of course there is no problem." It's hard to find guests like you, but there are a lot of songs I can sing, so I'll just change to a song with the harmony of the band members. Of course, it's still a Chinese song, and you all know Chinese anyway. ”

Xiao Yao originally planned to sing the song in the second round of the "Singer" finals in the solo session was the song "Sea and Sky" of the "Letter Orchestra" in his previous life, although it was a rock song, but the soundtrack of the first main song was very simple, only the sound of an acoustic guitar, and there was the accompaniment of other instruments such as drums in the chorus. Of course, there is no problem when Xiao Yao plays alone, but since he brought the big killer weapon of "Immortals" over, it is a bit inappropriate to let them stand for so long in front of him. Now that Sarsion said that he wanted to sing harmony, Xiao Yao decided to change to a song that could better reflect the band as a whole.

Everyone discussed here, and the matter of participating in the finals of "Singer" was decided. Just as Ye Jiaying came up to inform that lunch was ready and asked everyone to go down to eat, Xiao Yao left his room with the four of them and went downstairs to the restaurant.

At this meal, Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying also fully demonstrated the hospitable character and enthusiasm of Chinese people. For a meal of seven people, there were more than a dozen dishes on the table. Considering that several young people are from the United States, the cuisine is still a mix of Chinese and Western, including traditional Chinese cuisine, as well as salads, pastas, steaks, mashed potatoes and other foods commonly found in the West.

During the banquet, Ye Jiaying was obviously more enthusiastic about Samian, a beautiful girl who praised her beauty, not only did the parents chat more briefly, beckoned her to eat vegetables, and helped her pick up vegetables much more often than the three boys, which provoked Xiao Siqi couldn't help but laugh and ridicule in Chinese: "Your son has a girlfriend now, you won't still worry about this American daughter-in-law, right?"

Xiao Siqi said that when they watched the live broadcast of "Immortals" performing at the Oscars on TV, after the camera swept over Sarmien, Ye Jiaying once marveled at the beauty of this girl, and then asked Xiao Siqi with a brain, Xiao Yao would bring a foreign girlfriend back, and when he came back, he obviously referred to her.

"Huh?" Hearing Xiao Siqi's words, the three boys all looked over in surprise, Sarmien's expression was very embarrassed, and he immediately looked at Xiao Yao with complicated eyes.

"Dad, they can all understand Chinese!" Xiao Yao smiled helplessly, "Also, it is very rude to say a language they don't understand in front of foreign friends." ”

"Ouch, I'll go, why is this so illogical?" Xiao Yao then laughed at himself.

"It's just a joke!" Xiao Siqi smiled awkwardly, said a few people in English, and glared at Xiao Yao casually.

Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying both speak English very well, although they are not as good as Xiao Yao, but there is no problem with general conversation, so since meeting several members of the band "Immortals", they have been communicating in English. Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying did not expect that these young Americans actually knew Chinese, and Xiao Yao had never mentioned it to them before.

"I didn't teach them Chinese when I was in the United States, they only learned it after college, and I just knew it. Xiao Yao understood the meaning of Xiao Siqi's eyes glaring at him, and spread his hands and said, "I'm glad that I didn't say anything bad about them in Chinese after we met." ”

"What can you say bad things about us?" Dean said curiously.

"You won't want to know, this guy has a poisonous tongue, few people can stand it!" Xiao Siqi changed back to English and changed the subject, "How long will you stay in Huaxia this time?" Do you have any plans to go where to play?"

"Half a month or so," Dean replied, "we don't have a plan, listen to Young's arrangement." However, we don't seem to have much time or opportunity to play, and he said he would take us to Shencheng to rehearse and then go to a TV show to face you off. ”

"TV show? "Singer"? Do you want to be his guest? Do you want to sing with him?" Ye Jiaying heard it, and immediately asked a series of questions.

"We're guests, but we're just musicians and backing vocals, he's the single lead singer," Dean replied.

"Hey, Dean!" Xiao Yao interrupted, "The two in front of you are our opponents, you shouldn't tell your opponent about my plan!"

"You just said that your dad is your rival, and that the contestants in that show are very professional singers, and your mom is an actress. Dean said curiously.

"My mom can also sing, and you can ask guests to help in that show. Xiao Yao said, "My dad is a contestant, and my mom is my dad's guest, so I'm here to help him." It's like you're there to help me!"

"It's different, right?" Xiao Siqi looked at Xiao Yao with a smile and said, "You should have at least one other guest, right?" The song that "Immortals" performed at the Oscars was in the form of a double lead singer, Xiao Siqi thought that Xiao Yao would sing with Dean at first, but he had already heard from the single lead singer that Dean just said that "Immortals" was not Xiao Yao's assistant singer, but was going to be left for the second round of solo singing.

"Is there another guest?" The four members of "Immortals" all looked at Xiao Yao.

"Yes," Xiao Yao nodded and admitted, "There are two rounds in this final. In the first round, each of the seven contestants found a guest to sing together, the audience voted to eliminate one contestant, and the remaining six singers entered the second round for solo singing, and the final ranking was determined by combining the voting results of the two rounds. You're my killer feature, so of course I'll stay in the second round. You don't think I'm going to make it past the first round, do you?"

It is not unreasonable for Xiao Yao to be so confident. Even if "Singer" is unlikely to give him the championship because of his age, as the most topical contestant in the "Singer" program, and no matter how he sings, almost every performance he performs is the most interesting performance of the current period, and he doesn't believe that the program team will make him unable to even enter the second round.

The Xiao family's villa has enough rooms, and they will fly to Shencheng tomorrow, so Xiao Yao is too lazy to book a hotel for them. After discussing with Ye Jiaying, he arranged for four friends to stay at his home for one night. After lunch, Xiao Yao wanted the four of them to rest and adjust the jet lag. But the four of them all said that they slept well on the plane and were in good spirits, and they didn't need to rest to adjust the jet lag at all, and they were full of interest and asked Xiao Yao to take them out to play.

Although this world does not have the very famous poem of Taizu in the previous life, "If you don't reach the Great Wall, you are not a hero", the "Great Wall" is still one of the most impressive miracle landscapes of China by foreigners. Since he is now in Yanjing, Xiao Yao took the four of them to climb the Great Wall.

The temperature at the beginning of July was already quite high, and it happened to be cloudless weather again, and climbing the Great Wall under the scorching sun in the afternoon suddenly hit the physical strength, energy and enthusiasm of the four people away. When they returned to Xiao's house, several people almost forced themselves to eat dinner, take a bath, and fell directly on the bed. As for the activities discussed before, let Xiao Yao take pictures of them in the small studio of Xiao Yao's house, go to the basement recording studio to play musical instrument recording, etc., they were also thrown to Java by the four of them.

The next day, Xiao Yao flew to Shencheng with the four of them. Xiao Yao's rented place must not be able to fit these four people, and Pei Minyi, who had already gotten the news, booked a hotel for the four of them in advance. After getting off the plane, Xiao Yao sent the four of them to the hotel to settle their luggage, and then took the four of them to Yin Xi's studio.

When they visited Xiao Yao's house yesterday, the four friends were surprised enough, but when they saw that Xiao Yao still had such a studio in Shencheng, the four of them felt that Xiao Yao's studio and recording studio were nothing.

Although Xiao Yao said that this studio is not his, he only owns half of the ownership of one of the design studios and the management and use of a recording studio, but when he entered the door, the front desk lady and the dozen designers in the office area shouted the word "Mr. Xiao" They could understand it, and the big office on the second floor of the design studio was also labeled with the nameplate of "Design Director" in Chinese and English.

"No wonder Keith has been rejected several times when he invited Jan to the United States to develop, and if I had such a place in China, I wouldn't want to go anywhere. Dean couldn't help but mumble quietly.

Xiao Yao didn't take them to visit the recording studio, but took them to the design studio first, not just to show off. When they first appeared on the Oscar stage, they were a high school student band and very pink newcomers, performing in their own clothes to highlight their rustic nature. Now that they're a star band, it's not appropriate to wear their own clothes to the show.

And on such a high-profile occasion on the final stage of "Singer", how could Xiao Yao miss such a good opportunity to promote his brand on such a high-profile occasion, "Immortals", how could Xiao Yao miss such a good opportunity to promote his brand. Xiao Yao brought them over to prepare costumes for them. However, this time Xiao Yao did not plan to do it himself, but was ready to hand over the work of designing the styling for them to the designers in the studio, and naturally he wanted to bring them over for the designers to see.

In the design studio, the members of "Immortals" also have an unexpected acquaintance, which is Rick McCullin, who works here. At the beginning, the rehearsals and competitions of the "Torrent" dance troupe, the members of "Immortals" went to see it with Xiao Yao more than once, and they knew many people in the dance troupe. The band members are also familiar with this guy who tinkered with the lighting costume with Xiao Yao.

In the words of the Chinese people, they can be regarded as "meeting old acquaintances in a foreign land", so several Americans who accidentally met on the land of China were also very happy, and Xiao Yao also took the opportunity to hand over the design and production of the four-person costumes to Rick.

After visiting the design studio and letting the designers measure the figure data of the four people, Xiao Yao took the four of them to the annex building where the recording studio was located to visit.

Hong Xiuyan knew about this student band that had been on the Oscar stage, and also knew their relationship with Xiao Yao, and behaved very politely and enthusiastically towards them. But the band members didn't know Hong Xiuyan, and only after listening to Xiao Yao's introduction did they know that the beauty in front of them was a Korean multi-faceted female star who was relatively famous in South Korea and China, and there was a certain gap in age between the two sides, so they were polite and polite, but they were obviously not as enthusiastic as Hong Xiuyan to them.

Xiao Yao planned to practice the first round of chorus songs with Hong Xiuyan before starting to practice with the band members, so after taking the band members to visit and introducing Hong Xiuyan and the band members to each other, Xiao Yao instructed Pei Minyi to take the four friends of the band to Shencheng for a visit and play, and he was ready to practice with Hong Xiuyan as planned.

But after the four band members visited Xiao Yao's recording studio, they lost the interest of going out to play, and asked Xiao Yao for the score of the second round of solo songs in the finals. With the understanding of getting along together in Calabasas for a year, they knew that Xiao Yao's musical instrument level and musical literacy were much higher than those of several of them. In order not to hold him back, they decided to practice first in advance. Anyway, there are all kinds of musical instruments here, and there is more than one practice room, and it will not affect Xiao Yao if they find another practice room to practice musical instrument playing.

Hearing that the four friends wanted to practice in advance, Xiao Yao naturally couldn't ask for it, and immediately wrote the scores of the various instruments in that song to them, anyway, that song was also a song from his previous life, and the arrangement was already in his mind, and it was only a matter of ten minutes to write it on the spot, which was not a problem for him at all. Although they changed their minds and didn't go out to play, Xiao Yao arranged for Pei Minyi to accompany them. Here, if they have any needs or any problems, Pei Minyi can basically solve them.

In the next few days, Xiao Yao's life became a step-by-step order. I took a break in the morning, and in the afternoon, I took the band members to the recording studio to practice with Hong Xiuyan, and the band went to another room to practice on my own. In between breaks, I went to the next room to listen to the band's practice, and if you have any questions, you can also guide you by the way. In the evening, I took the members of the band out to play and visit the international metropolis of Shencheng.

When Xiao Yao participated in the previous episodes of the "Singer" program, he went to school and recorded pure music, filmed MVs, recorded other songs, and did a lot of other things.

Although Hong Xiuyan is a multi-star star, she first debuted as a singer, not only singing online, but also having rich experience in singing and cooperating with others. "Immortals" has only a few simple harmonies, mainly played by instruments, and takes the action of "stupid birds fly first". Therefore, the efficiency and progress of the two groups of guests practicing with Xiao Yao exceeded Xiao Yao's expectations. originally planned to practice the two songs in two weeks, but after a week, Xiao Yao felt that the two songs were almost done. For the final of "Singer", it seems that it is ready.
