Entertaining Children

"Is this a question? This is obviously a way of expressing disbelief in the form of a question! Is it necessary to be so serious?" After hearing Xiao Siqi's words, many reporters at the scene rolled their eyes inwardly. ． The update was the fastest, but Xiao Siqi deliberately took the reporter's question as a question to take up the conversation. He must have something to say, but no one at the scene interrupted him.

"The name of y appeared for the first time in my fourth solo album." Xiao Siqi said, "The two songs "The Most Beautiful" and "The Night I Missed You" were created jointly by me and y. The songwriter of the song is the joint signature of me and y. That album was released fifteen years ago, and at that time, Xiao Yao was more than four years old!"

"You mean, Xiao Yao can write lyrics and compose music when he is over four years old. Can he write songs?" Another reporter stood up and asked.

"It wasn't really that time." Xiao Siqi shook his head and said.

"Then why are Xiao Yao's name signed on these two songs?" The reporter who asked the question continued to ask, "Since you said y is Xiao Yao, then signing y is also signing Xiao Yao, can I say that?"

"Of course." Xiao Siqi nodded, and continued, "Xiao Yao started learning music and playing the piano from me when he was three years old. When he was four years old, he could already play complete pieces. Among the two songs , there are two short pieces of melody that Xiao Yao randomly played when he was chatting with me while playing the piano. I thought the two pieces of melody were very pleasant, so I processed them into a song respectively. Although there is a small part of the melody It is from Xiao Yao, but Xiao Yao also contributed to the song, of course I can sign his name."

"That's about the song, what about the lyricist? Why is Xiao Yao's name also there?" The reporter continued to ask.

It is not impossible for a child who knows how to play the piano to suddenly play a beautiful melody while playing casually. Xiao Siqi's words make sense, but the lyrics are not something that can be played casually. Children over the age of 10 may not be able to write those words, or understand the meaning of those sentences!

"That's because when I wrote the lyrics, I modified and processed them based on the chat content between me and Xiao Yao." Xiao Siqi said, "In the lyrics part, Xiao Yao also gave me inspiration and ideas. Songs also contribute, so I don't think there's anything wrong with adding his name to the lyricist!"

"It turned out that it wasn't really composing lyrics and music, but chatting gave some inspiration, and a few melodies popped up at random. The actual writing of songs was done by Xiao Siqi himself. However, Xiao Siqi wants to add Xiao Yao's name to the songwriter. It's not that it's unreasonable." Many reporters nodded in their hearts, which seemed to agree with Xiao Siqi's statement.

"Then why didn't you just write Xiao Yao's name, but come up with a strange name like y?" Another reporter stood up and asked.

"Because Xiao Yao was too young at that time,

It's my son again. "Xiao Siqi said, "If he directly writes his real name, it will definitely cause a lot of reaction from the media. As a singer in the entertainment industry, I know exactly what kind of situation I will face. Not to mention that Xiao Yao really didn't know how to compose lyrics and music at that time. I didn't want a four-year-old child to be stared at by the media every day and affect his childhood life, so I came up with such a way to use a stage name. As for the name y, Xiao Yao chose it himself, using the initials of his own pinyin, which I don't think is surprising. "

"Well, even if we accept your statement," a reporter who asked the question before stood up and asked again, "But, I remember that in the second year after your fourth album was released, there was music that y made alone The work appeared. Xiao Yao, who is more than four years old, can't write lyrics and compose music, but he just gave you the inspiration to write songs, so he can create independently when he is more than five years old? Is this possible?"

"Why is it impossible?" Xiao Siqi said, "Everyone has seen his performance in the program "Where Are We Going, Dad" back then. Some people called him a genius, others called him a monster. different."

"But that's a program. Some people say that it was planned in advance by the program group." Another reporter said.

"Even if it is designed by the program group, can ordinary five-year-old children act like the program group?" Xiao Siqi retorted, "What's more, after the program was broadcast that year, because Xiao Yao's performance was so surprising, there were already many media reporters. I went to the filming location of the show to verify the true identities of the villagers, shopkeepers, and stall owners who appeared in the show. None of them were cast by the show crew. They also asked those people for verification, and they have already confirmed that Xiao Yao His performances are all real." I'm in love with this male god

"However, Xiao Yao's performance on the show only shows that he matured earlier than other children, and it does not prove that he had the ability to create those musical works under the name of y at that time." It was the reporter who asked the question before. road.

"How did you know he didn't have that creative ability at the time?" Xiao Siqi said, "Since Xiao Yao inspired me to compose those two songs, and I discovered his talent in music, I have already started teaching him how to compose music. Xiao Yao's learning ability, I believe I don't need to say more? His academic performance from childhood to adulthood is there. Let's not talk about his grades in elementary school. , Yanjing City won the college entrance examination immediately, these things are well-documented and cannot be faked. He can learn to play the erhu in just over an hour on the show, why can't he learn to compose in more than a year?"

"However, learning and writing are still different. It does not mean that a strong learning ability will definitely be able to write good works. There is no necessary connection between the two," said the reporter. "This is not logically true."

The academic performance in the school is indeed well documented and cannot be faked. When Xiao Yao won the first place in the college entrance examination, in order to solve some people's doubts about Xiao Yao, the second generation of entertainment stars, being able to win the top prize in the college entrance examination, some media have already fully reported Xiao Yao's academic performance in school when he was a student. Those grades have all been verified. Xiao Yao has indeed been a super-student with much better learning ability than ordinary people since he was a child.

"Then I will give you some logical reasons!" Xiao Siqi said, "I am most familiar with my son's works. Xiao Yao's first complete music work independently completed is "The Original Scenery of Hometown". Is it a pure music work, or a special ocarina piece. This piece was picked up by Mr. Cao Zhongyun, a Chinese ocarina master, and bought as a film soundtrack. Everyone should know that Mr. Cao Zhongyun has worked in pure music, film and television soundtracks, and With the status of Ocarina music, if this piece of music is made by someone else, who would be willing to miss the opportunity to be appreciated by Mr. Cao for a little money?"

"What if it's you, or Mr. Cao himself? Wouldn't it be the same?" A reporter said unconvinced, "I know you and Mr. Cao are very good friends, and "Singer" even came to accompany you But Mr. Cao was originally a master of pure music and ocarina music.”

"Then I can only ask you to go back and do your homework." Xiao Siqi shook his head speechlessly and said, "Mr. Cao and I only met on the "Everyday Upward" program back then. y bought the copyright of that song to have further contact with me, and our friendship began at that time. This is not a secret at all in the circle, and you can also ask Mr. Cao himself to verify. If that song It was done by Mr. Cao, so would he still be in trouble for the soundtrack of the movie? He put his own song in my son’s name, and then bought it through me? Who has no logic?

As for me, there are many people who know me in the circle, who said I can play the ocarina? Not to mention creating ocarina music? Also, what did I put my work under my son's name at that time? Help your son become famous? Not to mention that he was already a well-known evildoer at that time, and some people already said that he was a musical genius when he performed musical instruments on the show. If I wanted him to be famous for his musical works at the age of four or five, why did I give him a stage name in the first place? "

Seeing that the reporter stopped talking, Xiao Siqi went on to say: "The song "Original Scenery of Hometown" was created by Xiao Yao when he was filming the grassland episode of "Where Are We Going, Dad?" The artistic conception is also very consistent with the environment of the prairie we were in at that time, which is logical."

"After talking about his first song, let's talk about the first song he composed alone." Xiao Siqi continued, "His first song is "Insects Flying", which he participated in when we participated in "Where Are We Going, Dad?" It was created in the issue of Tropical Rainforest. On the first night when we set up a tent in the rainforest, we found a gathering place of fireflies. So we took Mr. Sun Zhihao, father and daughter, to watch fireflies together in the middle of the night. At that time, I created He wrote "Goodbye Firefly", and he wrote "Insects Fly", both of which are included in my fifth album. Because that song is a nursery rhyme with a simple melody and short song length, it is not suitable for Putting it in the album as an official song can only be done as bonustrak, but it fits Xiao Yao's age at that time. This is also logic!"

"Then there are songs written by y's signature, which are "For You" and "Married" at my wedding. The reason why the lyricist of the previous song is my father is because the lyrics are my father's love for me. And Jiaying’s instructions. The last song is a joke between friends, and only friends who are very close will say that. The only one who can understand these at the same time is that I have a very close relationship with Jiaying. A close person. Xiao Yao was already eight years old at that time, besides him, do you have a more logical candidate?"

"After that, y was silent for two years, and the next song that came out was "In My Song" in his mother Ye Jiaying's album. Why was it silent for two years? It was because his mother was about to release an album. My son wants to express it. Of course, y wrote not only that one song, but also a song "Falling in love with someone who doesn't go home". In fact, these two songs were written by Xiao Yao for Jiaying's new album Yes. Xiao Yao was already ten years old at that time, and I felt that the person who wrote the song "Falling in Love with One Who Doesn't Go Home" was purely an act of mischief by this kid, so I didn't choose it for Jiaying to sing it in Jiaying's album. It was sold to another female singer."

"Hehe~" When Xiao Siqi said this, there was a burst of slight laughter from the audience of reporters, and Xiao Yao also showed a smug smile.

"After that, y disappeared for another four years, and the work that reappeared was the episode "Red Beauty" in the TV series "Ling Yun Zhi"." Xiao Siqi continued, "Both their mother and son starred in the main character in that TV series. The character, the singer of the song is Xiao Yao's mother Ye Jiaying."

"These are all the songs and works published by y before Xiao Yao became an adult, and the emergence nodes of all these works are all related to Xiao Yao himself or his family, that is, me and Jiaying." Xiao Siqi finally concluded, " From this point of view, is it logical enough?"

"Wow~" The media reporters in the audience let out a burst of exclamation.

Through Xiao Siqi's sorting out, everyone found that this y's works came out, and they were all related to the Xiao family's affairs. Except for Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao's father and son participating in the program, Xiao Siqi's album release, Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying's marriage, Ye Jiaying's album, Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao's participation in TV series, etc., y is really silent for several years. Although the song "Falling in Love with Someone Who Doesn't Go Home" was sung by another female singer as an exception, but judging from the time, the time when that song appeared was not much different from the time when Ye Jiaying's album was released Xiao Siqi said that it is not impossible that Xiao Yao originally prepared that song for Ye Jiaying.

"I have a question." Another reporter stood up and asked, "The music works of y you just listed are only until Xiao Yao was sixteen years old, and the first single released by Xiao Yao under his own name also happened to be It was around the age of sixteen. Why? Is there any special significance at the age of sixteen?"

"Xiao Yao really entered the entertainment circle and entered the public's attention, actually as an actor, the role of "Cheng Ying" in "Ling Yun Zhi"." Xiao Siqi said, "Although he was only fifteen years old when he filmed that TV series, But by the time that TV series aired, he was almost sixteen years old. At the viewing meeting held before the TV series aired, we learned from the evaluations of him by the media, critics and the person in charge of the TV station’s film purchases. You know, once this TV show airs, it's inevitable that he'll be famous.

Xiao Yao once said to Chen Tao in the interview of "The Tao is Endless", being born in a family like ours, it is inevitable to have contact with the entertainment industry. He has set a strange rule for himself, try not to appear in the media as a star until he turns 18, which is consistent with our original intention of taking the stage name y. Later, seeing the character "Cheng Ying" in the script of "Ling Yun Zhi" couldn't bear it, Xiao Yao moved forward two years. At the age of sixteen, he was ready to step into the spotlight to deal with the media and the public. Be prepared for change. Now that he is ready to be famous, we naturally don't have to continue to use y's name, but use his real name to release singles. "

"Since Xiao Yao is ready to become famous, why didn't he announce it at that time?" The reporter continued to ask, "Also, since Xiao Yao has already released an album under his own name , why did two film and television songs signed by y appear last year?"
