Chapter 13: Where's Daddy?
Xiao Siqi has been busy like a dog for most of the year, but Xiao Yao is happy like a fairy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiao Siqi went to more than a dozen cities for concerts, Xiao Yao followed Xiao Chengru to film, ran everywhere and went to five or six places. The most important thing is that Xiao Siqi is working, and Xiao Yao's main task is to play, play in the crew and follow Xiao Chengru to the city where the crew is located. So after coming back, the father and son met, and the state of the two people also formed a strong contrast.
Xiao Siqi was tortured through a series of concerts, and the whole person was quite haggard. However, when I saw Xiao Yao, who hadn't seen him for half a year and had grown a lot taller and stronger, the fatigue in his heart seemed to have magically subsided a lot.
The tired Xiao Siqi rested at home for more than a month, and not long after helping Xiao Yao celebrate his fifth birthday, the competent agent Xu Ting brought Xiao Siqi a new job.
Like in the previous life, Shonan Satellite TV in this world also has a parent-child outdoor reality show called "Where Are You Going, Dad". The name, theme, content and production method of the show are the same as in the previous life, the difference is only the names of the guests who participated. This show was broadcast in one season last year and the year before that, and the ratings were popular every year, and it quickly became one of the trump cards of Shonan Satellite TV.
During the filming of this season, the program production team fell in love with Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao's father and son. In addition to Xiao Siqi's explosive popularity in the past six months, it seems that Xiao Siqi is the only famous single father in the entertainment industry whose children meet the age required by the show. If Xiao Siqi and his son can be invited to participate in this season's show, just the first single father to appear in three seasons is already a highlight of the show. So they actively contacted Xiao Siqi's agent Xu Ting and sent an invitation to Xiao Siqi's father and son.
Although this program is one of the trump card programs with the most guaranteed ratings on Shonan Satellite TV, Xu Ting's first reaction when she received this invitation was to refuse. She understands this show, and she also knows Xiao Siqi, if Xiao Siqi, who is not diligent and indistinguishable, is allowed to appear on this show, she will definitely go up to find a spray. But thinking of Xiao Yao who she saw at Xiao Siqi's house that day, and thinking of the unusual dialogue and way of getting along with the father and son, she felt that she should be able to follow.
Xu Ting gave this invitation to Xiao Siqi, and Xiao Siqi was quite interested. He has also watched the previous two seasons of the show and thinks it is a very good show. At the same time, the topic of getting along with children is also the content that he is most concerned about at the moment. The most important person in his life now is Xiao Yao, but Xiao Yao is such a special child, and the relationship between the two of them is really unusual. He also wanted to see what the other fathers and sons were like.
Naturally, Xiao Yao's opinion had to be consulted on this matter. Xiao Yao was deeply impressed by "Where Are You Going, Dad" in his previous life, and in this life he also watched some of the programs of the same name after knowing that Shonan Satellite TV had a program of the same name, and knew that it was exactly the same program, and it was also very interesting to participate in this show, so he nodded and agreed.
Temperatures at the end of August are still at their hottest of the year, especially in areas like Shonan Province, which is located in the southern part of China. Fortunately, no matter how hot the sun is, it can't shine into the airport hall, and the enough air-conditioning makes people here not as anxious as people on the street outside. But Chen Min, who was in the pick-up hall of Huanghua Airport in Changsha City, Xiangnan Province, is now extremely irritable.
For no other reason, the plane she was going to pick up was late. As the youngest guest in this season of "Where Are You Going, Dad" and the only single father, the program team arranged the group commanded by Chen Min, the only female director in the filming crew, to Xiao Siqi and his son. She is now in charge of picking up Xiao Siqi's father and son, but she doesn't want the flight from Yanjing to be delayed due to the weather. The program was filmed from the pick-up of the airport, so their line of pick-up people are carrying a camera to the camera, although most of the people in the airport are in a hurry, but they carry the camera in the airport hall for more than an hour, has inevitably attracted the attention of others, and someone has begun to point fingers at them. She felt that she was about to attract onlookers.
Finally, the airport radio sounded the news of the arrival of the flight of Xiao Siqi and his son. Ten minutes later, Chen Min finally saw the person he was going to pick up, but the dress of the father and son was too much.
Xiao Siqi wore a khaki outdoor quick-drying shirt on his upper body, the sleeves of the shirt's arms were pulled up to the elbows, the open shirt revealed the white quick-drying T-shirt inside, and the lower body was desert camouflage-colored assault pants, and the feet were khaki outdoor hiking boots, and a pair of toad sunglasses were on his face. Although "Where Are You Going, Dad" is an outdoor show, you don't need to dress up in such a professional outdoor outfit. What surprised Chen Min was that Xiao Siqi was just that, and the child next to him who looked like he was five or six years old was also dressed exactly the same, with clothes, pants, boots, and glasses, not only the color, but also the style, and even the sleeves were rolled up to the elbows.
Chen Min is the third year to participate in the filming of "Where Are You Going, Dad", and he also came to take over the plane in the first two years, whether it is the inexperienced father in the first year who pushes three or four suitcases in a big bag, or the two suitcases that the experienced father in the second year streamlined, because the guests are not allowed to bring assistants to help during the recording of the show, the fathers who come out are all in a hurry while taking care of the luggage and the children. And this one is good, holding a large suitcase in his left hand, and holding the strap of the guitar bag on his right shoulder with his right hand, and he came out with a relaxed face. And the child next to him actually did exactly the same action, pulling a small suitcase with his left hand, holding the strap of a small guitar bag (actually a ukulele bag, which looks no different from a small guitar bag) on his right shoulder with his right hand, and walked side by side with Xiao Siqi.
Such a peculiar scene, of course, the cameraman is very professional and faithfully recorded, and there is a little excitement in my heart. This appearance of the father and son alone is shocking enough, it seems that the proportion of the material shot by their group this year will not be too small in the end, and their role and status are naturally expected to be higher than other film crews.
Seeing that the cameraman gave a thumbs up, and the filming crew who appeared on the scene was OK, Chen Min hurriedly took the crew to greet him.
Chen Min walked up to Xiao Siqi and took the initiative to stretch out his hand to greet him: "Hello Mr. Xiao, I am your follow-up director Chen Min, this is my team, and I have been responsible for following you since then, I hope we will cooperate happily." ”
Xiao Siqi let go of his right hand holding the strap of the guitar bag in his right hand, took off his sunglasses and hung them on the neckline of his T-shirt, then smiled and held Chen Min's hand and said, "Hello Director Chen." It's okay to call me Xiao Siqi, but don't call me teacher, that's usually called my dad, I can't afford it. After speaking, he shook hands with the crew members behind him one by one, and finally hugged Xiao Yao's shoulder next to him and said: "This is my son, the big name Xiao Yao, the little name Bayi." ”
Xiao Yao also took off his sunglasses and hung them on the neckline of his T-shirt, then shook his hand and said to the film crew: "Hello uncle and aunt." ”
Just now, when Xiao Siqi greeted the team members behind him one by one, Chen Min focused on Xiao Yao's body. Watching Xiao Siqi go to shake hands with people and say hello, Xiao Yao neither expressed his excitement nor impatience, but just waited quietly on the side with an indifferent face. And when he greeted everyone, he even took off his sunglasses first and then beckoned to speak, this kind of politeness and respect in the adult world, he actually has it? Is it simply imitating his father, or does he understand these things at all? Chen Min felt more and more interesting, and became curious about Xiao Yao.
But as a professional director, no matter how curious you are, now is not the time to explore. Chen Min waited for everyone to get to know each other, and immediately said to Xiao Siqi: "Teacher Xiao, there is an itinerary ahead, let's go." Of course, I hope you still wear sunglasses to avoid causing onlookers to delay time and affect the rest of the trip. ”
Xiao Siqi nodded with a wry smile, put on his sunglasses, and reminded again while following Chen Min to the parking lot: "Director Chen, really don't call me Teacher Xiao, I'm not polite, I'm serious, I'm really not used to people calling me that, just call me by my name, okay?"
Chen Min was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, let you think about it, okay." I can't help but think that this is the most starless star I have met in the past three years.
The film crew consists of a camera with two videographers, who take turns to operate the camera, one of whom carries the camera while filming, and the other cameraman who takes turns to take a break is responsible for communication with the general director of the show and the other crews. The cameraman who was in charge of liaison at the same time who took turns to rest had nothing in his hands, and watched Xiao Yao drag his suitcase and follow Xiao Siqi to leave, and hurriedly walked over to take Xiao Yao's suitcase lever and said, "Little friend, I'll help you with your luggage." Give me the case and the guitar bag. ”
Xiao Yao didn't let go, and said, "Thank you, Uncle Liu, but I can do these things myself, so I don't need to trouble you." He remembered that when he introduced himself just now, this person's name was Liu Shanxing, who was in charge of communication and communication.
Liu Shanxing was surprised and looked at Chen Min and Xiao Siqi. Xiao Siqi said disapprovingly to Liu Shanxing: "Master Liu, you just let him take it himself." I just said that I would help him pull the box, but he didn't let him. ”
Liu Shanxing scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "In this way, take your own things, I didn't expect your son to be quite independent." Shall I get it for you?"
Xiao Siqi smiled speechlessly, "My son's things are all taken by himself, I want you to help me get them, isn't this waiting for him to laugh at me?" Okay, let's leave quickly." ”
Several people soon arrived at the parking lot of the airport. The film crew drove two cars, one was an SUV of a certain brand provided by the sponsor of the show, and the other was the official car of the TV station itself. Xiao Siqi and his son naturally sat in the SUV provided by the sponsor, Liu Shanxing drove, Chen Min sat in the co-pilot, Xiao Siqi and his son sat in the back, and the rest of the group sat in the official car in the platform.
After putting away their luggage, the four of them got into the car. As soon as he got into the car, Chen Min in the passenger seat handed over two wireless microphones and introduced: "Siqi, our shooting started from the moment you got in the car. I've got a camera in the car, and now I'm going to have to trouble you putting this little bee on. ”
Xiao Siqi is also participating in a reality show for the first time. According to Chen Min, after pinning the wireless microphone on the T-shirt, he waved at the camera on the roof of the car and played with a grimace.
"Bayi, you can also come and say hello. Xiao Siqi, who was not enough to play by himself, beckoned Xiao Yao to come with him. Xiao Yao glanced at Xiao Siqi and thought that it was very likely that this would be edited and played, so it was better to be polite. I had to reluctantly straighten up and wave my hand at the camera, "Hello everyone, I'm Xiao Yao, Xiao Bayi." With that, he fell back into his seat, took out the music player with headphones connected to it from the large pocket on the right side of his pants, tuned to the track he wanted to listen to, put the earbuds into his ears, and closed his eyes.
Chen Min looked at the completely different performances of the father and son with a smile, and asked Xiao Siqi with a smile: "Do you put on earplugs and listen to music to sleep as soon as you get in the car?"
Xiao Siqi smiled and said: "No, but we have all watched your first two seasons of the show, and we know that your show is very tormenting, so I recuperated as soon as I got in the car." Saying that, Xiao Siqi seemed to remember, "Yes, I also have to take the opportunity to rest the meeting, I don't know how you toss us later." After speaking, Xiao Siqi stopped playing, put his sunglasses on his nose, and tilted his head to rest on the seat.
"This..."Chen Min was completely speechless to the father and son.
