Chapter 427: Follow You
"Huh?" Ah Zi was a little dumbfounded, and was speechless for a while.
Xiao Yao was not in a hurry to leave at the moment, picked up a fork and forked a piece of dessert in front of him, and ate it unhurriedly, only occasionally smiling and looking up at Ah Zi.
"I don't think it's okay," Ah Zi thought about it for a while, and seemed to have finally found a reason for himself, looking up at Xiao Yao and saying, "I just don't want to lie to you anymore, I told you my real name, at most, I accidentally said my brother's name by the way." My dad's name wasn't the first thing I said, but you guessed it yourself, and I just admitted it. ”
"Is there a difference between saying your brother's name and your father's name?" Xiao Yao laughed, "I don't care if I play this kind of word game, will your father accept your statement?"
"Well, even if I reveal my family history to you, we have to look beyond the appearance to see the essence. Ah Zi seemed to have thought about his words, and then said, "The name is just an appearance, my father doesn't let me tell others that I am his daughter, the essence is that he doesn't want others to be affected by his status and take extra care of me." For you, I don't think my dad has much influence in your heart. You don't have anything to do with him, and you don't need to show favor to him, even if you help me, it won't be because of my dad's influence, so even if you know that I am his daughter, it doesn't actually violate the agreement between me and my dad. ”
"I just don't have anything to do with your dad now, how do you know that I won't have anything in the future, and how do you know that I don't need to show favor to him?" Xiao Yao smiled, "He is a famous master, and his connections are very hard!"
"He's a cross talker, even if it's a master, it has nothing to do with you as a singer. Ah Zi said, "You don't need to show favor to him at all. ”
"According to what you say, those record companies make music, and they don't need to show favor to your father, a master of cross talk. Xiao Yao said, "But why do you want to use the stage name of "A Zi" to pitch a demo to the record company? You actually know in your heart that if you say that you are Zhang Baoqing's daughter, the record company is much more likely to take a fancy to you. This is the basis of the agreement between you and your dad. ”
"But you're not the same as the record company. Ah Zi said, "There are many singers under the record company, and they need many performance opportunities, and they will more or less meet with my dad and other people in the music industry, and how much will need the help and support of those of them." But you're different, you don't need anyone's help at all. Although on the surface, you have the backing of your parents' studio, with your ability, even if you don't have a studio at home, you can still be where you are now. The role of "Chengying" was obtained by you through an audition, and the Oscar was completely based on yourself, and with your performance in "The Voice", any record company would want to sign you. Why isn't your agent here now? Because it's always been you who pick the job, not the job that picks you!"
"Okay," Xiao Yao waved his hand, "even if I can ignore your father's influence, why should I help you?"
"Didn't my dream of being such a devout singer move you a little bit?" Ah Zi tilted his head and put his hands together in front of him.
"Huh~ You can really say anything? This is not the scene of the talent show!" Xiao Yao glared.
"Like you said, this is not a talent show!" Ah Zi sat up straight and said, "On the talent show, many of the contestants' stories are made up, but what I said is true, why can't I say it? ”
"That's a solution, haven't you tried it?" Xiao Yao smiled.
"Let's not talk about how effective it can be to sell miserably on a talent show," Ah Zi pouted, "If I really do this, my family history will definitely be dug up and made public by gossip reporters soon, and my agreement with my dad will definitely be that I lose." ”
"Yes. Xiao Yao nodded.
"I think you are not only very capable, but also a person who is willing to help others realize their dreams," Ah Zi said, "so looking for you is the most correct choice." ”
"Willing to help people realize their dreams?" Xiao Yao shook his head and smiled, "Do I have to agree to anyone who comes to me to help realize my dreams?" I am not a bodhisattva in the temple, even if I am a bodhisattva in the temple, I am not responsive. ”
"Although you are not a bodhisattva, you are an angel!" Ah Zi said with a smile, "Didn't the sailors say that you are Sister La's angel? I have thought more than once, why it was Sister La, not me, who sang live outdoors next to the riverside food stall that day! If I didn't know your address, I would have liked to stand directly at your door like "Chengmen Lixue". ”
"Xiaomen Lixue, beware that I will arrest you as an illegitimate meal. Xiao Yao was startled.
"What are you afraid of? Isn't your agent arrested by you?" Ah Zi smiled, "Maybe if you are caught once, you can also join your private team." ”
"That's because you don't know enough about our story. Xiao Yao said.
"Just kidding," Ah Zi said, "I've learned about your situation. ”
"It's true that you don't help everyone, but as long as you come across it, most of them will help. Ah Zi continued, "I have read a report about the story of you and Cheng Xi. When you joined Cheng Xi and Chen Chen's dance team, you specially choreographed a dance for them, just to help them win the opportunity to sign a contract with your studio. At first, you only met her by touching her ice cream when you got out of the car, and you lost one to her at the time, so you don't owe her anything at all. But after getting to know her, you still tried your best to help her. ”
One of the episodes of the "Singer" program in the summer vacation was Xiao Yao who invited Cheng Xi to dance with. In the daily tidbits of that issue, the filming director Mei Fang interviewed Cheng Xi, and Cheng Xi also told Mei Fang in detail about his acquaintance with Xiao Yao. Later, only part of the clips were broadcast on TV, but this experience still aroused a lot of interest, not only as Xiao Yao expected, an ice cream brand invited Cheng Xi to endorse and shoot an advertisement, but also the media talked about this matter when they were looking for an interview with Cheng Xi and reported it in detail.
"But I'm not without gains," Xiao Yao said, "I helped Cheng Xi and Chen Chen choreograph, and they taught me to dance, rap, and play graffiti." and I helped Sister La and Yiyi write songs, also because they helped me gain popularity by checking the room and connecting the microphone when I was live under a pseudonym, and Sister La also instructed me on how to live broadcast and how to interact with water friends. What good can I do if I help you?"
"First, don't talk about money!" Xiao Yao raised two fingers and said, "Let's not talk about whether I lack money or not." You don't have a big record to help you do the publicity, so our partnership is definitely a share, not a buyout of the copyright. The more I earn, the more you earn. In this mode, whether it is Fan Linxuan, Gong Chen, Sister La, or Yiyi in my studio, they all have an advantage over you. Second, don't talk about live streaming. Not to mention whether I will go to the "Kirin" live broadcast, even if I go, it is impossible to broadcast live anonymously anymore, and your even microphone rounds have no effect on me. ”
"I~" Ah Zi hesitated for a moment, and suddenly blurted out, "I can teach you cross talk!"
"Huh?" Xiao Yao was stunned.
"Although I don't like to talk about cross talk, and the level is average, after all, I grew up in the cross talk family, and I know all the knowledge of cross talk!" A Zi said, "I have seen your performance as a host on "Singer". Your mouth is very good, and many professional cross talk actors may not be able to speak at the speed of your advertising words, but cross talk is not just a neat mouth, there are many doorways inside, if you want to understand, I can teach you. ”
"This~" Xiao Yao was silent.
Ah Zi looked at Xiao Yao and seemed to be moved, and immediately hit the railway while it was hot: "I just want to be a singer, but you are different, you are not only a singer and actor, but also a photographer, you have written poetry, participated in street dance competitions in the United States, worked as a screenwriter, worked as a director, and now you are still an online anchor, haven't you thought about going to the music industry again and trying to talk about cross talk?"
"You are a famous genius, and you have no creative ability. Ah Zi continued, "The songs you sing are written by yourself, the dances you dance are written by yourself, and the director's short films are also scripts written by yourself. I believe that as long as you understand the doorway in cross talk, it is not difficult to create your own cross talk book. In this way, if you want to go to the cross talk world in the future, you don't need the support of my dad and their people at all, just by yourself, you can also get the opportunity to play famous!"
"You're right, I do have an interest in this. Xiao Yao nodded, and then asked, "Then do I need to apprentice?"
Xiao Yao's goal in life is to play all kinds of games, and it is indeed a very attractive proposal for him to get involved in the traditional music industry. However, the rules of the traditional opera industry are big, and the master-apprentice relationship is a very serious relationship, which is not far behind the master-apprentice relationship in the martial arts world. If you really want to kowtow to the tea in front of this girl who is a few years older than herself to be a master in order to learn cross talk, Xiao Yao can't get over this hurdle in his heart.
"Apprenticeship, you worship me as a teacher, of course not!" Ah Zi immediately shook his head and said, "Regarding cross talk, I will tell you anything you want to know, but don't say that I am not qualified to accept you as an apprentice, even if there is, I will not let you become my father's apprentice grandson, so that my father will be proud!"
"But when it comes to apprenticeship~" Ah Zi looked at Xiao Yao and said, "In terms of music, you are definitely qualified to be my teacher." I want to recognize you as a teacher, but I don't know if you would like to accept me as a student?"
"What, I'll take you as a student?" Xiao Yao said with a smile.
"Yes," Ah Zi said, "There is no order to learn, and the master is the teacher." Although I am a few years older than you, with what you have achieved in music so far, I don't think there is anything wrong with me being your student. ”
"Let's talk about accepting students," Xiao Yao put this matter aside for a moment and asked Ah Zidao, "The conditions you just said and agreed with your father are the signing company, the Spring Festival Gala, the single results, the number of fans and the number of website radio subscriptions, etc., must be met at the same time or as long as one of the conditions is met? Also, you said that the time you agreed with your father is three years, how long has it been now?"
As a reborn traverser, Xiao Yao really has a little bit of the God psychology of "helping the people around him realize their dreams as much as possible". Putting aside the identity of the second generation of the star and the third generation of the star, he sat here tonight and said so much to Ah Zi, Xiao Yao didn't mind throwing out a few songs to help her. Now that Ah Zi said that he wants to teach him to talk about cross talk, Xiao Yao doesn't want to write a few songs for her so simply to send her, but wants to try his best to make her reach that general agreement.
The single score and the number of fans are not too difficult for Xiao Yao, but in terms of the Spring Festival Gala and the signing company, Xiao Yao is not so confident. The Spring Festival Gala is not something that anyone can go to if they want to, a record company, not to mention that his family's studio is not a record company, even if it is, he doesn't want to involve his parents.
"The number of Weibo followers and the number of radio subscriptions on the website are a condition, four in total, as long as three of them are met. Ah Zi knew that Xiao Yao had at least agreed to write a song for himself, and immediately replied happily, "As for the time, we made this agreement after I graduated from college, I first wandered around for half a year, worked as an online anchor for a year, and now there is still a year and a half left." ”
"Okay, I got it. Xiao Yao said noncommittally, "You wait for my news!"
"Waiting for news, do you still have to think about it?" said Ah Zi with a smile on his face and a little anxious.
"First of all, I'm not Sherlock Holmes. To be on the safe side, I'll have to find a way to verify everything you said tonight. Don't worry, I won't let your father know that I know that you are his daughter. Xiao Yao said.
"What I said is true, I'm not afraid of you to verify. Ah Zi said confidently.
"I basically believe it, just to be on the safe side. Xiao Yao nodded, and continued, "Secondly, it's very simple for me to write three songs for you, and it's not difficult to even record three songs for you personally, but I can't guarantee that you can meet three of the four conditions agreed with your father with my three songs." Whether it really leaves your father with nothing to say, or for your future development in the music industry, I also need time to think about how to help you plan. ”
"No matter what, I will contact you again!" Xiao Yao took out a business card and pushed it over, "If you are not at ease, this is my personal number, you can also call me!"
"Okay, I'll wait for your news!" Ah Zi said as he put away his business card.
"By the way, where do you live now?" Xiao Yao asked again, "I'm asking which city you live in now, and this is not available on the Internet." If it goes well, I might ask you to go to my studio for an audition during the New Year's holiday, and if you don't live in Shencheng, you may have to make another trip to Shencheng in the near future. ”
"I now live in Jiangcheng. In the past few days, I will always stay in the hotel in Shencheng, and I will travel to Shencheng as a holiday. If you want to find me, you can call me at any time, and I will be there for you. A Zi said, "I am renting a house in Jiangcheng, if you need to, you can move to Shencheng at any time to settle down, anyway, my main business is live broadcast now, and it is the same in any city I live in." ”
"It's good to be in Shencheng these days, it's more convenient. Xiao Yao said, "As for the move, you can decide for yourself when you see it later." ”
"Okay!" Ah Zi, who was completely relaxed, picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip.
When he put down the coffee cup, he saw the dessert in front of him, and Ah Zi, who was interested in chatting, pointed to the dessert in front of Xiao Yao and asked, "Do you know the meaning of the dessert "Tiramisu"?"
"I understand Italian. Xiao Yao nodded.
"Ah~ I forgot that you not only know a lot of foreign languages, but also a "walking encyclopedia". Ah Zi covered his mouth embarrassedly.
"But I'd love to hear you explain it to me. Xiao Yao said very face-giving.
"Well, then I'll show it off in front of your "encyclopedia". "In Italian, "Tiramisu" means to take me away immediately. You ordered this after you came in, did it already indicate that I was destined to follow you in the future?"
"I'm in for a treat tonight," Xiao Yao smiled and shook his head, "I invited you to eat tiramisu, that is, I said 'Tiramisu' to you, and asked you to take me away, because I will follow you in the future." Don't forget that you promised to teach me cross talk. ”
"If you're going to say that, then you'll have to be my treat tonight. Ah Zi said, turned his head and beckoned to the waiter, "Waiter, pay the bill!"
"It must be me who follows you!" Ah Zi turned his head and glared at Xiao Yaodao, "Don't mention your gentlemanly demeanor at this time!"
