Chapter 1206 Quit the band
“I really don’t have much confidence in you.” Xiao Yao smiled, “I have taught you how to defend yourself, and I haven’t taught you how to fight. But Jin has acted as an agent before and learned to fight. If time passes the audition, I will continue to learn. If you really get into the ring, I really think you can beat her!”
“You ” Sun Tingting stared at Xiao Yao.
“But,” Xiao Yao hurriedly continued, “You can’t beat her now, doesn’t mean you can’t beat her in the future. Doesn’t this still have me? I can continue to teach you! As long as you don’t plan to kill her, I I can teach you to beat her so that you can see her beat her once!”
“You teach me?” Sun Tingting glanced at Xiao Yao and said, “After you taught me those self-defense skills before, you said that I would use those skills, so I don’t need to learn anymore. Now you want to teach me so actively, Do you just want to watch us fight in the ring? You are very proud of someone fighting for you, aren’t you?”
“I don’t have one!” Xiao Yao said with a grieved expression, “Obviously you said you wanted her to go to the ring to fight against each other, I just tell the truth. I don’t teach you, could it be that you were beaten by her in the ring? ?”
“You ” Sun Tingting wanted to say something more, but Xiao Yao interrupted when she just said a word.
“Here!” Xiao Yao suddenly looked towards the door of the coffee shop and raised his arm to greet him.
Sun Tingting followed and found that Dean and others had already arrived at the coffee shop, so she put down the previous topic and resumed her smiling expression.
Because Dean said that it was about the band, Mu Ying, Zhou Jingyi and others did not show up. Only four people from the band came. Dean and the others saw Xiao Yao beckoning, and walked to sit down in front of Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting.
The waiter was recruited and ordered a drink. After the waiter left, Xiao Yao asked straightforwardly: “What do you want to tell me? Is the band going to release a new album again, ask me to write a song?”
“It’s not about releasing an album, or asking you to write a song, but looking for you to perform together.” Dean also said straightforwardly. “Our band plans to have a concert tour in the second half of the year. Because of your relationship, there will be The two stations are in China, namely Yanjing and Shencheng of China.”
“Do you want me to be your guest of the concert at those two stations in China?” Xiao Yao said, “If time permits, I will try my best to participate.”
“No, no, it’s not the two stations in China, nor is it a guest at the concert.” Dean shook his head, “You were originally a member of our band. We hope that you, as a member of the band, will join us on this tour. The concert. I mean, all the times of this concert.”
“All the performances? I’m afraid not.” Xiao Yao shook his head and said, “Well, let me know first, how long the whole concert will last? From when to when? How long is the pre-rehearsal preparation time?”
“It hasn’t been finalized yet.” Dean said, “But the current plan is that this tour will take about 20 concerts, mainly in North America, Europe and the Far East. It is expected to last three months from September. By November, the preparation time will be about one month. The concert will start in American cities and will end in American cities. If you can, we hope you will come to the United States in August to rehearse and prepare with us.”
“So long?” Xiao Yao shook his head and said, “I think I can’t agree.”
“Is it because of time?” Dean asked.
“Yes!” Xiao Yao nodded.
“I know,” Dean said, “the concert will take a long time, and we were a little worried about your schedule. But we contacted your agent, Ms. Fang, and asked about your work schedule. She told us , You have no finalized work plan for the second half of the year!”
“What? Have you contacted my agent?” Xiao Yao asked strangely, “But why did she tell me this?”
“It’s not her fault!” Dean said, “We know whether you can take a job or not. The final decision is yours. We contacted Miss Fang just to know if you have arranged for the second half of the year. The work plan, the possibility of agreeing to us is very unlikely. Anyway, we are going to China to attend the awards ceremony and will see you. Instead of asking Miss Fang to tell you, we should tell you in person. So we didn’t make arrangements for the second half of the year. After the work plan, we ask Miss Fang to help us keep it secret and prepare to give you a surprise.”
“It turned out to be like this!” Xiao Yao nodded.
After so many years of cooperation, Fang still cooperates with Xiao Yao very tacitly and understands Xiao Yao very well. If it was someone else, Fang still would definitely not agree. But for this band, Fang still knows Xiao Yao’s feelings and relationships with them, and it is reasonable to agree to keep them secret.
“Can’t you really join us in the concert?” Dean continued to ask, “Ms. Fang told us that you have no specific work arrangements for the second half of the year. Is there anything else you don’t even know about Ms. Fang? Work Plan?”
“The work plan for the second half of the year is really not yet available!” Xiao Yao smiled and shook his head.
“Then why?” Dean asked strangely.
“But I have a very important life plan in the second half of this year!” Xiao Yao continued.
“Life plan?” Dean repeated.
“Yes!” Xiao Yao took Sun Tingting’s hand and put it on the table, smiling, “Don’t you know? I have already proposed to Tiyana.”
“What? You already proposed to Tiana?”
“Are you getting married? When?”
The four members of the band were surprised.
Xiao Yao proposed in public in a public event such as the Masters, but that celebrity match was the All-Star Masters of China, not the All-Star Masters of the NBA. Although in the media and the Internet, Xiao Yao’s public proposal is a very popular topic, but this topic is mainly in China.
As the world’s number one entertainment power, although the US media will forward some hot news from other countries, the strength of this report is very limited.
Xiao Yao is well-known in the United States, but Xiao Yao is, after all, a Chinese star who mainly develops in China. If there is no explosive news, the interest of the American media in him is relatively limited. If Xiao Yao were to marry an American celebrity, maybe the American media would report a lot, but Xiao Yao, the Chinese celebrity, proposed to a Chinese girl. Whether that girl is a star or not, it is a normal thing in the eyes of the American media.
However, Xiao Yao used the personal data he played in that game to confess it was a very rare thing. Some media in the United States also reported this incident. However, the meaning of “5201314” comes from the homophony of Chinese. Because of the cultural differences, Americans don’t know the meaning of those numbers, and they have to explain it by the way when reporting. Therefore, the American media has not reported much on this matter, and the spread is very limited.
Xiao Yao’s proposal in public was just over a month ago. During this period of time, these people did not see the news of Xiao Yao’s marriage proposal in the United States, nor had they been to China, so they really did not know that Xiao Yao had successfully proposed marriage.
“You really don’t know?” Xiao Yao laughed, “I proposed to Tiana a couple of years ago, in the China Basketball League All-Star Celebrity Tournament, in front of everyone.”
“Congratulations!” Samien said.
“Congratulations!” Dean remembered what he had said in the car before, and followed with a complicated expression.
“Congratulations!” George and Mike followed.
“Thank you!” Xiao Yao said, “We plan to have a wedding in the second half of this year. The location of the wedding has not yet been determined, but the wedding date is likely to be in October. Marriage is a very important thing, before and after the wedding. , We will definitely have a lot of things to do. So, I can’t promise to go on tour with you!”
“Okay!” Dean said helplessly, “I hope you will have time to attend the next concert!”
Xiao Yao moved out the reason for getting married, and Dean could no longer insist that Xiao Yao join the concert.
“Even if I can attend your next concert, I think I will be a guest performer, not a member of the band!” Xiao Yao hesitated and said.
“What are you talking about?” Dean said, “You were originally a member of the band, why are you a guest performer?”
“Do you want to officially quit the band?” Samien asked Xiao Yao while looking at him.
“What? Really?” Dean and the others were shocked, all staring at Xiao Yao.
“Actually, I am not a member of the band for a long time.” Xiao Yao smiled bitterly, “I am in China, and you are both in the United States. How can there be a band whose members are separated for a long time and are still in two countries separated by thousands of miles? ”
“That’s because we can’t come to China for development, and you don’t want to come to the United States!” Dean said.
“Yes!” Xiao Yao nodded, “But I am from Huaxia, and you are Americans. You cannot leave everything in the United States to come to China, and I cannot leave everything in China and go to the United States. I joined you in the first place. The band is for fun, but also to help you tide over the difficulties and complete the school celebration performance. When I ended my exchange student at West Bridge High School, I should officially quit the band. The main reason why I didn’t do that was the main reason. It’s because of our relationship.”
“Then you want to quit now, is to give up the relationship between us?” Dean was a little excited, “Do you want to completely sever the relationship with us?”
“Of course not!” Xiao Yao immediately shook his head, “In any case, the year at Xiqiao Middle School was a very precious and unforgettable period in my life. We will always be friends!”
“At the beginning, I kept the name in the band, one reason is because of the feelings between us, and another reason is to consider the career of all of us.” Xiao Yao said, “At that time, our band was just in the United States. I have a little bit of fame, and I am not particularly famous in the United States and China. From the perspective of career development, I need you at that time, and you also need me. Keep my name in the band and combine me and Putting you together in some form is more beneficial to the professional development of all of us.”
“I don’t think so.” Samien shook his head. “We did need you at that time, but I think you don’t need us. Whether in West Bridge Middle School or later, you never need us. You are in The name is kept in the band just to help us.”
Others felt very surprised by what Samien said. No one spoke for a while, but looked at Samien in shock.
“Well, I agree that you officially quit the band!” Samien continued.
“What? Sami, are you crazy?” Dean reacted immediately this time, almost roaring to Samien.
“Dean, don’t you realize that he has been helping us from knowing Yang until now, but we can hardly help him!” Samien still looked at Dean calmly and said, “You still When do you want to tie Yang?”
“No, Sami, you also helped me.” Xiao Yao said, “If it weren’t for you, I would not appear on the stage of the Oscars. That matter is a very important resume in my acting career, for me Career development in China is very important.”
“Perhaps performing at the Oscars is indeed very important to your career development, but it is not impossible to achieve without us.” Samien shook his head, “With your ability at the time, you can apply to the school to perform at the school celebration. You are an exchange student, and the performance level is much higher than ours. The school can’t disagree. You will meet Betty again, and you will be a guest at Betty’s house and meet the soundtrack of the animated film. “Immortals” is your previous work. When the soundtrack asks you for help, you can also take out that song.
Given the relationship between you and Betty and Keith, even without us, the soundtrack will still use your song. It’s not that foreign performers have never appeared at the Oscars. Even if you are not American, you would still appear on the stage of the Oscars without us. Perhaps, without us, you will get even more attention. ”
“But, we also came to China to help Yang perform, that China’s variety show, the final!” Dean reminded indignantly, “I don’t think we are of no help to Xiao Yao!”
“But we didn’t help him win the championship, did we?” Samin said, “Also, it was not only us who helped him in the finals, but also a Korean star. I think he wanted to find foreign stars. If we help, we are not the only choice, and it is not necessarily the best choice. For example, if he wants to, maybe he can invite Keith’s “Daydream” to China as a guest performer, maybe the result may be It will be better, and it may not necessarily win the championship in the end. He didn’t invite Keith and them, but he didn’t want to trouble them. Don’t forget, he didn’t ask us to come to China for help, but we just happened to be here at that time , He will be asked to help!”
“Sami…” Xiao Yao looked at Samin and said.
“No, listen to me,” Samien waved his hand to stop. “Over the years, you have been developing in China, and not only in music. You are originally an actor, and the focus of these years is obviously on acting. Our band is insignificant to your career. You only maintain it because of your relationship with us, don’t you?”
Xiao Yao smiled wryly, without making any response.
“I know you are not interested in the concert at all.” Samien continued, “Your wedding with Tiana is just a suitable reason. Even if there is no such thing, you have no other work arrangements. You Will find other reasons to refuse, right?”
“How do you know?” Xiao Yao didn’t answer, but Dean said unconvinced, “That’s a world-class concert. Even if Yang is an actor, he is still a singer, and he hasn’t given up on music and is still making music. Works. As a pursuit singer, who doesn’t want to have a world-class concert?”
“He doesn’t want to, at least not now.” Samien pointed to Xiao Yao and said.
“How do you know?” Dean asked again.
“Because Yang is in China, no, he is more famous worldwide than our band. Even in the United States, his reputation is not worse than ours.” Samin said, “If he wants to have a concert. , It’s long time to have a solo concert, whether it’s in China or other countries in the world. It’s not a problem for him to open a world tour at all. The results will only be better than our band’s tour. Better, but did he have a solo concert?”
“I heard…” Dean said.
“I know, you want to say that Yang had a tour in China.” Samin said, “But it was a Lifehouse tour, and it couldn’t be compared with a large-scale concert. That tour only lasted nine days from start to finish, even if Adding to the previous rehearsal time, it won’t be long. No matter in terms of scale or duration, it can’t be compared with the concert tour. It’s obviously just a small gift that Yang took the time to give to the fans.”
“Dean, Yang has his own business!” Seeing Dean stopped talking, Samin looked at him and said, “I think it’s time for us to let Xiaoyao leave!”
“Young said that leaving the band does not mean that we have nothing to do with us. We are still friends!” Seeing Dean still did not speak, Samin added.
“Well, I agree that Young officially quit the band!” Dean thought for a while, and finally gritted his teeth.
