"Cut~ just a few songs, how much can I pit?" Xiao Yao said disdainfully, "I don't rely on selling songs to make a living." ”

"Okay, let's not talk about this, anyway, there is a special person in charge of the specific negotiation of the price, and I don't have to worry about it," Chen Yang changed the topic and said, "Let's talk about other things." ”

"Is there anything else?" Xiao Yao asked.

"The leader in charge of the women's national basketball team said that you promised to take promotional photos for the women's basketball players for free?" Chen Yang asked, "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes!" Xiao Yao admitted, "In the training session before the charity competition, Sister Nuo made such a request to me, and I agreed. Just like I did with the men's basketball team in previous years, I provided the equipment and costumes, and the girls basketball players only had to take the time to take pictures. Do you have any comments from the leaders?"

"Of course we don't have a problem with a big-name photographer like you taking pictures of our women's basketball girls for free. Chen Yang smiled, "When and where are you going to shoot? We will arrange the time of the women's basketball players at that time." ”

"This time is different from the last time I took pictures of the men's basketball team. Xiao Yao said, "Last time I rented a studio in Yanjing, and I hired a staff member for the temporarily rented equipment. Now Yin Xi's studio has a studio, and the equipment and personnel are ready-made, and I can use them, so this time I plan to invite the members of the women's basketball team to come to Shencheng and shoot in the studio of Yin Xi's studio. ”

"That's no problem," Chen Yang said with a smile, "There are still a few months before the Women's World Basketball Championships, and the national team hasn't started training yet." At the beginning of next year, we will put the women's basketball training camp in Shencheng, so that you can take pictures, and you don't have to run to Shencheng from other places. ”

"No," Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "When I took pictures of the men's basketball team, it was not long before the start of the World Championships, and it was a temporary rental of venue equipment and a temporary hiring of filming staff, so I finished filming fifteen players in five days." Now there are still a few months before next year's Women's Basketball World Championships, and the venue equipment and staff are all from Yin Xi's studio, so there is no need to rush to take pictures of the men's basketball team. I'm planning to start preparing my shooting plan from next month, shooting in advance and shooting slowly. ”

"Starting next month?" Chen Yang hesitated, "Now the training list for the new women's basketball national team has not yet come out, and we haven't even determined which fifteen players will participate in the Women's Basketball World Championship next year, how will you start filming next month?"

"Shoot them one by one," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Although the training list has not yet been decided, you always have a general framework, right? You tell me the list of players in the scope of your scrutiny, and you are in order of their likelihood of being selected for the national team. I put the players who will definitely be selected for the national team in the front, and the marginal characters in the back. ”

"This time it's not going to be three people a day like the last men's basketball team. I plan to shoot slowly, make a plan for one team member to shoot one, at most one a day, and there will be a time interval in between, and the whole cycle will be longer. Xiao Yao continued, "Maybe I haven't finished filming those ironclad selected players, and your national team list will come out? Even if it doesn't come out at that time, it doesn't matter, the big deal is to shoot a few more people, and you wait for the list to be determined and then selectively release it according to the final national team list." Those who can enter the scope of your inspection, even if they are not selected for the national team in the end, they must be domestic star players, and it will not be a problem for them to take those photos to be published in magazines, and they will not be wasted. ”

"Listening to you say that, it seems to work. Chen Yang nodded with a smile, and then teased, "How do I feel that you are more attentive to the girls of the women's basketball team than to the boys of the men's basketball team?"

"The time and environment are different, okay?" Although he knew that Chen Yang couldn't see it, Xiao Yao couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Besides, I'm a man, is it strange to be better to the young ladies of the women's basketball team than to the rough men of the men's basketball team?"

"Hey, you're still sincere!" Chen Yang smiled and continued, "Since you are so good to the girls of the women's basketball team, how about doing something for them?"

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yao asked.

"Write a song!" Chen Yang said, "The four songs you wrote for the professional league this time are all good, so the leader in charge of the women's basketball team has an idea, that is, I want you to write another song for the players of the women's basketball team." Whether it's cheering them on, or doing something for them, it's for publicity when they go to the Women's World Basketball Championships next year. No more, one song is enough!"

"Write songs for the women's basketball players?" Xiao Yao thought about it, there were still more than four months before the Women's Basketball World Championships, and he could get another song out, so he agreed, "No problem!"

"Refreshing!" Chen Yang praised, and continued, "And..."

"And?" Xiao Yao interrupted Chen Yang, "It's five songs! Brother Yang, don't you want to squeeze me clean when you catch me once?"

"That's right," Chen Yang said with a smile, "How many songs have you produced in the few months since you participated in the "Singer" program to the end of the summer vacation? Who doesn't know that you are a talented musical talent, how can it be that you will be squeezed if you are asked for five songs? Besides, this time I am not looking for you to sing songs, but to give you a chance to show your face in front of fans across the country. ”

"What kind of performance opportunity?" Xiao Yao asked.

"The opening match of this year's league is the home game of the East China Sea Sharks against Yanjing Steel. Before the game, we arranged the opening performance, and we planned to get you on the field to sing the league theme song "Believe in Yourself". Chen Yang said, "Isn't this a chance for you to show your face? Last time in the charity match, you had to play on the court, so we invited Lin Jin to do the opening performance." You don't have to play this time, and it's the league theme song you wrote yourself, so you won't refuse it again, right?"

"This, I really can't go!" Xiao Yao smiled, "I don't have time." ”

"Don't you say that there are no commercial performances and announcements, and it's very free?" Chen Yang said strangely, "The league games are all on weekends, and they don't conflict with your school's class time, so why can't you go?"

"The last time you asked me was the National Day holiday at the beginning of October, not the end of October. Xiao Yao smiled, "This time it has nothing to do with the school, and it is not a commercial performance." At the end of the month, it's New York Fashion Week, and I'm going to the United States to see a fashion show, and by the way, I'm going to pick out clothes for the women's basketball players. I had already decided after I promised Chen Nuo to take pictures of the women's basketball team, and now the tickets have been booked, and the itinerary in the United States has also been arranged, so it's not easy to cancel!"

In terms of the clothing for promotional photos, men are often dressed in formal attire, and women have much more choices than men. When taking pictures of his men's basketball teammates, Xiao Yao found six brands and prepared one set for each of the fifteen men's basketball players, and a total of fifteen sets of formal wear were completed. This time there is plenty of time to shoot for the women's basketball team, Xiao Yao doesn't plan to prepare a costume for the women's basketball team members, and now the national team list has not yet been decided, Xiao Yao may have more than fifteen people to shoot, and there are more costumes to prepare. It happened that there was New York Fashion Week at the end of the month, and Xiao Yao decided to go to Fashion Week to find inspiration.

"Huh?" Faced with Xiao Yao's high-sounding reason, Chen Yang didn't know what to say.

"You don't have to sing the theme song in the opening game, and it's good to ask Liang Xueying to sing "Fighter". Xiao Yao suggested.

"It's, okay. Seeing that Xiao Yao had no intention of changing his mind, Chen Yang could only say helplessly, "Let's send someone to contact Liang Xueying's team again." "Three of the four songs have Xiao Yao's participation, Xiao Yao can't go, and the only choice left is the song that Liang Xueying sings solo.

This kind of thing is not in charge of Chen Yang, the vice chairman of the Basketball Association, because it is Xiao Yao, Chen Yang will mention it by the way, if Liang Xueying is invited to perform, it will naturally be contacted by other people who are specifically responsible for this aspect of affairs.

On October 25, Xiao Yao took a week's leave from school and boarded a plane to New York with Yin Xi.

Although Yin Xi has begun her career transformation and tried to develop in the entertainment industry, her biggest advantage and resources are still in the fashion circle, and from the perspective of the studio's business scope, she has not given up on fashion, so she basically will not miss the four major fashion weeks every year. After cooperating with a personal brand, Yin Xi tried to pull Xiao Yao, a photographer, to go to fashion week with him more than once, but Xiao Yao always refused on the grounds that he had no time. This time, Xiao Yao decided to go to New York Fashion Week, naturally with Yin Xi, who was also going there.

Yin Xi went to New York Fashion Week this time not only to watch the show, but also to do two jobs, namely to be a catwalk model for a world-class brand and a personal brand of a top international designer, and this time he also brought his own private team to the United States.

Fang still has a lot of things on hand, Xiao Yao's warehouse is being rebuilt into a LOFT, although it is thrown to the person Lin Qisan found to be responsible, but Lin Qisan is still a student after all, Fang still has to care about it from time to time. Although Xiao Yao's construction of a school in the disaster area has not yet begun, she is also responsible for contact and communication in the early stage. In addition, she still has Chen Bella, an artist, under her hands, and Chen Bella's brokerage matters to take care of, Fang still can't leave at all, even if she has a heart for Fashion Week, she doesn't have time to follow.

Pei Minyi is different, she and Fang are still in a different direction of development, she is not interested in brokerage affairs and business matters, and now she is thinking about learning to be a stylist and has the heart to develop in design. She had never been to the four major fashion weeks, and when she heard that Xiao Yao was going to New York Fashion Week, she immediately begged Xiao Yao to go with her.

Xiao Yao doesn't have any work at New York Fashion Week, just to join in the excitement and watch the show, he doesn't need to bring a private team, and he has his own plans, and he will not always be with Yin Xi after arriving in New York, but will act alone, and it is a burden to take a private team. However, seeing that Pei Minyi was so eager to go to New York Fashion Week, Xiao Yao still discussed with Yin Xi, and temporarily lent Pei Minyi to Yin Xi, so that she could join Yin Xi's private team and go to see the world together.

The four major fashion weeks are all fashion events, and in this year's New York Fashion Week, many celebrities in China were invited by the brand to go to the catwalk or platform, and many celebrities ran to join in the fun. Recently, there have been a lot of entertainment reporters squatting in the international terminals of several airports in super first-tier cities that have flights to New York. After Yin Xi and Xiao Yao arrived at the airport, they were also recognized by the entertainment reporters waiting here, and several reporters immediately surrounded them with microphones, wanting to interview the two.

Yin Xi's attitude towards the reporters is still very good, and he answered a few questions from reporters with a smile, basically admitting that this time he flew to New York to participate in Fashion Week, and there were two brands on the catwalk.

Because he was walking with Yin Xi, Xiao Yao didn't do any more pretense this time, and went to play a game of "hide and seek" with the entertainment guys. When asked by the entertainment reporters about the purpose of going to New York, Xiao Yao only briefly said that he would go to New York Fashion Week to see the excitement, and then pushed off the reporter's microphone and walked forward.

Surrounded by reporters in the airport hall for interviews, Xiao Yao and Yin Xi also attracted the attention of some passengers. After passing the security check, on the way to the waiting area, some passengers who recognized Xiao Yao also asked Xiao Yao for a group photo and autograph. As long as he is not an overly excessive fan of illegitimate meals, Xiao Yao's attitude is still very good. In the face of these polite fans who did not ask too much, Xiao Yao, who had plenty of time, also met their requirements one by one with a smile.

After getting on the plane, it is almost impossible to be recognized by fans and ask for an autograph for a group photo. The first thing passengers who board the plane is basically to find their own seat, wait for their seat, settle their luggage, and sit down before they have the leisure to look around. Yin Xi and Xiao Yao sat in the first class with the least number of people, located at the front of the plane, so they were rarely recognized.

Yin Xi and Xiao Yao sat in the first class, and unconsciously remembered what happened on the plane between Xiao Yao, who went to the United States, and Yin Xi, who went to the United Kingdom, during the summer vacation last year. That time Xiao Yao took economy class, Yin Xi sat in first class, Yin Xi wanted to help Xiao Yao upgrade to first class, but Xiao Yao didn't let him. As a result, a passenger on the plane suddenly fell ill, Xiao Yao gave a thoracotomy on the plane and drank half a bottle of vodka in one go, and finally was upgraded to first class by the crew chief for free and sat next to Yin Xi.

Compared with the experience of going to New York, Xiao Yao's journey this time was much smoother. This time, Xiao Yao and Yin Xi went to the United States together, and the matter of booking tickets was handled by Yin Xi's subordinates. For convenience, the flight booked is from Shencheng to New York, and there is no trouble in the middle.

This direct flight to New York is a flight of China Air China, and the flight attendants on the plane are also Chinese. Xiao Yao was later recognized by the Huaxia stewardess on the plane, and took a photo with the beautiful stewardess at the request. In addition, during this continuous flight of more than ten hours, Xiao Yao basically chatted with Yin Xi beside him except for sleeping. Nothing special happened along the way, not even a single turbulent flow, and we arrived in New York very smoothly.

After the plane landed, Xiao Yao and his group of seven people came out of the passenger passage together, and Xiao Yao and Yin Xi did not walk in the front, but as soon as he appeared in the passenger passage, before he could completely walk out, someone at the exit recognized him.
