Entertaining Children

After breakfast and a short rest, Xiao Yao carried the guitar on his back, and accompanied by Tim Haggis, left the hotel and headed for Beiba Avenue where the Chambers Conservatory of Music is located. ?? ??August 1 Chinese Ｑ㈧W﹑W㈧． ?8(i)1(i)Z?W. COM

Playing the guitar on the street, the volume of the guitar itself is obviously not enough. Fortunately, there are many kinds of musical instruments in this area, and there is no need to deliberately look for them in broad daylight. Xiao Yao easily found an equipment on the road The rental shop, rented a removable amp cabinet and guitar cable, and lugged them outside the Chambers Conservatory of Music.

Xiao Yao chose the street outside a coffee shop near the school as his performance venue, and began to connect the equipment. Tim Haggis turned around and observed the surrounding environment. When he returned to Xiao Yao's side, Xiao Yao had already carried the guitar on his back and was ready to start.

"Yang, why don't you open the piano case and put it in front of you?" Tim Haggis looked at the closed case and asked Xiao Yao strangely, "Aren't you a street performer? Where do you put the money I gave you?"

"That's right, I forgot, thank you for reminding me." Xiao Yao nodded, then leaned over and opened the piano case and placed it in front of him.

Xiao Yao came here to be a street performer because he wanted to surprise someone, not because he really wanted to make money from it, and he never thought about it at all. But under the reminder of Tim Haggis, Xiao Yao suddenly felt that it would be nice to make some money by the way, so he immediately followed suit.

Tim Haggis shook his head, sat down on the open-air seat outside the coffee shop, and ordered a cup of coffee for himself. This location is less than ten meters away from Xiao Yao, with a wide field of vision. Anyone who approaches Xiao Yao on the street cannot escape his sight. It will not disturb Xiao Yao, but also allow him to stay comfortably. a monitoring location.

On the other hand, Xiao Yao also started his own performance of a pure guitar song "A Beautiful Day" by depapepe in his previous life. The fresh and bright, sunny guitar melody immediately attracted the attention of some passers-by.

It is true that Chambers Conservatory of Music is indeed a world-class music school, and has trained many world-class instrumentalists. Xiao Yao asked himself that the current level of guitar performance is probably not as good as that of the classical guitar performance students in the school. But the reason why Xiao Yao dared to "play wild" outside the gate of Chambers Conservatory of Music is naturally because he has something that others don't have. What he relies on is the classic guitar tunes from his previous life in his mind. In terms of performance alone, Xiao Yao is already very good. Even if he is not outstanding in this place, but with the addition of those classic guitar pieces that have never appeared in this world, his performance is enough to attract the attention of people in this place. .

"Butterfly" by depapepe, "" and "fight" by Nomoto Nakagawa, "Mountain of Miracles" and "TimeTrave1" by Masaaki Kishibe, these guitar songs from previous lives were played one by one by Xiao Yao standing on the side of the road ,

Later, even Joe Hisaishi's "Castle in the Sky" and eag1es' "" were not originally pure guitar songs, Xiao Yao also played the pure guitar version. After playing ten pieces for more than half an hour, Xiao Yao finally stopped some passers-by and gathered a group of listeners around him.

"Where did this artist come from? The tunes he plays are really nice, and I've never heard them before."

"Yeah, I don't know who wrote these songs, I really want to listen to them several times."

"Anyway, we're fine. Let's just stand here and listen for a while. He's also good at playing the guitar. Do you think he's a student in our school? Let's get to know each other later, and we can find out who wrote these songs. You can I searched online."

"Stupid, if he was a student of our school, would he stand on the street and perform? I think he wants to use this method to attract the attention of our school's teachers, so he can enter our school."

"Now is not the time for graduation, nor is it the time for recruiting students. I'm afraid it's useless to do so."

"It's good to leave an impression first, and come back when the enrollment is over."

"This guitarist is an Asian. He is handsome and has a good figure. The most important thing is that he looks really cool playing the guitar. How about I invite him to have a drink after he finishes playing?"

"You are a nympho who can't move when you see a handsome guy."

"Don't you want to?"

"Uh... think!"

Xiao Yao performed for more than half an hour. In addition to the appearance of a lot of banknotes in the piano case, it also caused a lot of whispers from the audience. From the song to the performance, because Xiao Yao is not well-known in the United States, he did not wear any disguise when he came out this time, not even wearing sunglasses, so even his appearance became a topic of discussion among the onlookers. In addition to discussions, some audience members took out their mobile phones and recorded videos of Xiao Yao performing. In the self-media era, whether in the United States or China, this seems to have become a habit of many young people.

After finishing the morning class, Sun Tingting met with two classmates and friends whom she met at school, and walked outside the school together.

As a specialized music institution, Chambers Conservatory of Music has not many teachers and students, and the school occupies a small area. Compared with ordinary universities, not only are there fewer student associations, but even the school's facilities are much less. Therefore, under normal circumstances, students seldom stay in school except for class. They usually go for a stroll outside the school and solve the problem of eating outside. In this arts and culture district, there are much more places to visit outside the school than inside the school.

"Tiana, is it true that your boyfriend is not coming to see you in the United States?" asked a black Asian girl beside Sun Tingting who was holding her arm.

"Yes, Sissy, he's very busy this summer and doesn't have time to come over." Although Sun Tingting was feeling a little disappointed, it didn't show on her face, she just smiled and said to her friend beside her.

"Why can you still laugh?" The brown and white man on the other side of Sun Tingting said for her, "Didn't you say that he is the same age as you, a student who just graduated from high school? It's summer vacation, isn't he with us The school also doesn’t have summer vacation, how busy can it be? I don’t think he cares about you at all, why would such a boyfriend come? There are quite a few boys in our school who like you, so you might as well just dump him.”

"Gina, he just graduated from high school, but he is not an ordinary high school graduate." Sun Tingting shook her head, "Besides a student, he is also a show star. He is an actor, music creator, producer, singer and screenwriter. This summer vacation, apart from participating in TV shows, he also has to direct and shoot short films, so he is indeed too busy and has no time."

"Wow, your boyfriend is so powerful? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?" the brown-white girl named Gina said with her eyes wide open.

"Maybe Tiana is afraid that you, a nympho, will miss her boyfriend." The black Asian girl named Sissy teased Gina with a smile.

"Why? Chinese boys are not my type at all." Gina rolled her eyes and said, "And even if he does have a lot of jobs, girlfriends are more important than jobs, right? He's still a student, and It's not that he needs to earn money to support the family, I think no matter how busy you are at work, you should spare some time to come to the United States to spend time with your girlfriend. So, for such a boy, I still..." Gina pouted and shook her head.

The three walked and chatted, and walked out of the school gate unknowingly, and walked in the direction of the coffee shop they frequented. After class, they all need a cup of coffee and a snack to recharge their energy and relax.

"Huh? What are you doing over there? Why are there so many people around?" Sissy first noticed a group of people gathered on the street not far from the coffee shop.

"There is music, it seems to be the sound of a guitar, it should be a street performer performing." Sun Tingting heard the sound of the guitar, tilted her head and said to the two girlfriends.

"Yo~ come to the door of Chambers to perform musical instruments, this is really good at picking a place." Gina raised her eyebrows, and then said with some surprise, "Ah, I saw Taylor, she is a classical guitar professional, even She was standing there listening, that performer should be fine."

Saying that, Gina pulled Sun Tingting and Sissy over together, patted a 1.8 meter tall golden girl standing outside, and said, "Hi, Taylor! What are you doing here?"

"Hi," the golden girl turned around and saw that it was Gina and other three classmates she knew. It's been half an hour."

"Playing the guitar? Is your playing level comparable to yours?" Gina looked at Taylor strangely and said, "Can you stand here and listen for half an hour?"

"His guitar playing level is not necessarily better than mine," Taylor said with a smile, "but the songs he plays are very, very good, which I have never heard before, and he is also a handsome guy with an Asian face. "

"Him? A great song you haven't heard before? Asian faces?" Sun Tingting, who was on the side, felt her heart move, and immediately rushed into the crowd anxiously.

"Hey, Tiana, you don't have to be so excited when you hear a handsome guy, you have a boyfriend." Gina immediately pulled Sissy and followed Sun Tingting to squeeze inside, still joking.

When Gina pulled Cici to the innermost place and stood beside Sun Tingting, they found that Sun Tingting was covering her mouth in disbelief, staring at the street performer playing the guitar. .

"Tiana, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that something was wrong with Sun Tingting, Sissy lightly touched Sun Tingting's arm and said.

Sun Tingting still covered her mouth and didn't speak, just shook her head, indicating that she was fine.

Xiao Yao, who finally got his wish and waited until Sun Tingting appeared in front of him, ended the piece he hadn't finished playing with a strumming, and said again with a smile: "I played a lot of pieces for everyone, now, I will sing for everyone To someone who is very, very important to me. She is the reason I am here today."

"Wow, after playing for so long, the handsome Asian guy is about to start singing. The guitar tunes he plays are so good, I don't know how the songs are."

"Hearing what he meant, it seems that he wants to confess. Didn't he come to perform on the street?"

There were many onlookers whispering.

"It's hard to forget the first time I saw you, a pair of charming eyes..." After a brisk guitar prelude, Xiao Yao began to sing.

Xiao Yao, carrying the guitar on his back, walked forward while singing, and stood still in front of Sun Tingting, watching her sing with gentle eyes.

The song sung by Xiao Yao is the tune of Harlem Yu's "Love Is What You Need" from the previous life, and the lyrics were changed into an English version by Xiao Yao himself. Although Xiao Yao's English lyrics are not translated word by word based on the Chinese lyrics, the meaning and emotion expressed are exactly the same as the Chinese lyrics in his previous life.

"As expected!" As soon as the street performer sang the lyrics, the onlookers realized that it was a sweet love song, and after seeing his movements, everyone seemed to understand it at once.

At the end of Xiao Yao's first chorus and the song entered the interlude, Sun Tingting, who was looking up at Xiao Yao, suddenly stretched out her hands and hugged Xiao Yao's head. kissed her lips fiercely.

"Wow~" Seeing such an exciting scene, the onlookers who had already had a premonition applauded and booed.

"Is this Tiana's Chinese boyfriend?" Gina looked at Sissi in disbelief and asked.

"I don't know what he looks like," Sissy spread her hands, "but what Tiana is doing now has already told us very clearly."

"Didn't Tiana say that he has a lot of work and doesn't have time to come to the United States?" Gina was still a little dazed, just now she was worthless for Sun Tingting, and her boyfriend appeared in front of her eyes in a blink of an eye.

"Obviously, he lied to Tiana." Sissy said, "For now, here, to give her such a surprise."

"You say that this person is not Tiana's suitor, but Tiana's boyfriend. In order to surprise her, he just stood here and played the guitar for more than half an hour. He is not a street performer at all. ?” At some point, Taylor also squeezed into the inner circle and stood behind them.

"Probably so," Sissy nodded, "Tiana said that her boyfriend is a star performer in Huaxia. He is an actor, music creator, singer, etc. It is impossible for him to be a street performer to make a living. street performers."

"Oh my god, it's so romantic, it's so touching." Gina put her hands together and looked at the sky, "I want to take back what I just said. If God gave me such a boyfriend, I don't care if he is Not Chinese."
