Entertaining Children

Chapter 13 Where is dad

Chapter 13 Where is Dad Going

Xiao Siqi has been busy like a dog during this half of the year, but Xiao Yao has lived happily like a fairy. Xiao Siqi went to a dozen cities for concerts, and Xiao Yao went to five or six places following Xiao Chengru’s filming. The most important thing is that Xiao Siqi is at work, and Xiao Yao’s main task is to play, play in the crew and follow Xiao Chengru to the city where the crew is located. So when the father and son met after coming back, the state of the two people also formed a strong contrast.

Xiao Siqi’s torture through a series of concerts has made him quite haggard. But when he saw Xiao Yao, who hadn’t seen him for half a year and had grown taller and firmer, his exhaustion seemed to have disappeared miraculously.

The tired Xiao Siqi had a good rest at home for more than a month. Not long after helping Xiao Yao celebrate his fifth birthday, Xu Ting, a competent agent, brought Xiao Siqi a new job.

Like the previous life, Shonan TV in this world also has a parent-child outdoor reality show called “Where is Dad?”. The name, theme, content and production method of the show are the same as in the previous life. The only difference is the names of the participating guests. This program was broadcast for one season the year before last year, and the ratings are hot every year, quickly becoming one of the ace programs of Shonan Satellite TV.

In this season of shooting this year, the program production team took a fancy to Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao and his son. In addition to Xiao Siqi’s overwhelming popularity in the past six months, there seems to be only Xiao Siqi who is the only famous single father in the entertainment industry whose children meet the requirements of the show. If Xiao Siqi and his son can be invited to participate in this season’s show, the first single father to appear in the three seasons alone will be a major highlight of the show. So they actively contacted Xiao Siqi’s agent Xu Ting and extended an invitation to Xiao Siqi and his son.

Although this program is one of the most guaranteed trump programs of Xiangnan Satellite TV, the first reaction of Xu Ting, who received this invitation, was to refuse. She knows the show and Xiao Siqi too. If Xiao Siqi, who is indifferent and indifferent, is on this show, she will definitely go up and look for it. But thinking of Xiao Yao who had met at Xiao Siqi’s house that day, and thinking of the unusual dialogue and way of getting along with the father and son, she felt that she should be able to follow along.

Xu Ting gave this invitation to Xiao Siqi and said that Xiao Siqi was quite interested. He also watched the previous two seasons of the show and thought it was a very good show. At the same time, the topic of getting along with children is also his most concerned content. The most important person in his life now is Xiao Yao, but Xiao Yao is such a special child, the two people get along really unusual. He also wanted to see what it was like to get along with other father and son.

Of course, Xiao Yao’s opinion must be sought on this matter. Xiao Yao was very impressed with “Where Are You Going, Dad” in his previous life. In this life, he knew that there was a show of the same name on Xiangnan Satellite TV. He also watched some of the show. He knew that it was exactly the same show. He felt very interesting about participating in this show, so he nodded in agreement.

The temperature at the end of August is still at the hottest stage of the year, especially in the southern part of China like Shonan Province, it is even hotter. Fortunately, no matter how hot the sun is, it can’t enter the airport lobby. The air-conditioning makes the people here less anxious than the people on the street outside. But Chen Min, who is in the pick-up hall of Huanghua Airport in the high-ranking official yarn city of southern Hunan Province, is now extremely irritable.

There is no other reason. The plane she was going to pick up was delayed. As the youngest guest of “Where Are You Going, Dad” this season, he is also the only single father. The program group will arrange the group directed by Chen Min, the only female director in the filming group, to Xiao Siqi and his son. She is now responsible for picking up Xiao Siqi and his son, but she doesn’t want the flight from Yanjing to be delayed because of the weather. The program was filmed from the pick-up, so the people in their line of pick-ups have cameras carrying cameras. Although most people are in a hurry at the airport where people come and go, they are carrying cameras. Staying in the airport lobby lasted more than an hour, and it inevitably attracted the attention of others, and someone had begun to point to them. She felt that it was about to arouse onlookers.

Finally, the airport announcement sounded the news that Xiao Siqi and his son had arrived on the flight. Ten minutes later, Chen Min finally saw the person he was about to pick up. It was just the dressing of the father and son, which was so ridiculous, right?.

Xiao Siqi wears a khaki outdoor quick-drying shirt on his upper body. The sleeves of the shirt’s arms are rolled up to the elbow position. The open shirt reveals the white quick-drying T-shirt inside, while the lower body is desert camouflage-colored assault pants. They are khaki outdoor hiking boots with a pair of toad sunglasses on their faces. Although “Where are you going, Dad” is an outdoor show, you don’t need to be dressed in such a professional outdoor outfit. To Chen Min’s surprise, Xiao Siqi was no more. The five- or six-year-old kid next to him was dressed exactly the same. The clothes, pants, boots, glasses, not only the colors, but also the styles were exactly the same, even the sleeves were rolled up to the elbows. The locations are all the same.

This is the third year that Chen Min participated in the shooting of “Where Are You Going, Dad”. He also came to pick up the plane in the first two years, whether it was his inexperienced father pushing three or four suitcases with large bags in the first year, or the second The young experienced dad’s two simplified suitcases were not allowed in the recording of the show. Guests were not allowed to bring assistants to help. The fathers who came out were all looking after their luggage while looking after the children. But this one is good, holding a large suitcase with his left hand, and holding the strap of the guitar bag on his right shoulder with his right hand, and his face came out with ease. And the children next to him actually did exactly the same actions. He pulled a small suitcase with his left hand, and his right hand supported his small guitar bag on his right shoulder (actually, it was an ukulele bag, which looked like a small guitar. The bag is no different), walking side by side with Xiao Siqi.

Such a peculiar scene, the cameraman was of course very professional and faithfully recorded it, and there was a little excitement in my heart. This is enough shock for the father and son to appear on the scene. It seems that the proportion of the materials shot by their group this year will not be too small, and their role and status are naturally higher than other film crews. So some.

Seeing that the cameraman gave a thumbs up, the filming on the scene was OK, and Chen Min hurriedly led the crew to greet him.

Chen Min walked up to Xiao Siqi and proactively stretched out his hand to greet him: “Hello, Teacher Xiao, I am your follow-up director Chen Min. This is my team and will be responsible for following you in the future. I hope we have a happy cooperation.”

Xiao Siqi released the right hand holding the strap of the guitar bag with his right hand, took off his sunglasses and hung it on the neckline of the T-shirt. Then he smiled and held Chen Min’s hand and said, “Hello, Director Chen. Just call my name Xiao Siqi, but Don’t call me teacher, it’s usually called my dad, I can’t bear it.” After speaking, he shook hands with the crew members one by one, and finally put his arm around Xiao Yao’s shoulder and said: “ This is my son, his nickname is Xiao Yao and his nickname is Bayi.”

Xiao Yao also took off his sunglasses and hung them on the neckline of the T-shirt. Then he shook his hand and said to the camera crew: “Hello, uncle and aunt.”

Just now when Xiao Siqi greeted the team members behind him one by one, Chen Min focused his attention on Xiao Yao. Seeing Xiao Siqi going to shake hands and greet people, Xiao Yao neither expressed eager excitement nor impatient, but waited quietly on the side with a calm expression. And when he himself greeted everyone, he actually took off his sunglasses first before beckoning to speak. This kind of polite and respectful performance in the adult world, he actually has it? Is he simply imitating his father, or does he know this at all? Chen Min felt more and more interesting, and became curious about Xiao Yao.

But as a professional director, no matter how curious I am, now is not the time to explore. After everyone knew each other, Chen Min immediately said to Xiao Siqi: “Mr. Xiao, there is still a schedule later, let’s go now. Of course, I hope you still put on your sunglasses, so as not to cause onlookers to delay time and affect the subsequent schedule.”

Xiao Siqi smiled bitterly and nodded, put on his sunglasses, and followed Chen Min to the parking lot while reminding again: “Director Chen, really don’t call me Teacher Xiao, I’m not a polite, I’m serious, it’s true If you are not used to others calling me like that, you just call me by name, okay?”

Chen Min was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and nodded, and said, “Okay, let’s ask you to be together, let’s go.” I couldn’t help thinking that this is the least celebrity he has encountered in the past three years.

In the filming crew, there is a camera with two cameramen, which are operated by the two in turn. One of them is carrying the camera while shooting, and the other cameraman who takes a rest in rotation is responsible for the communication with the chief director of the program and the other groups. Communication link. The cameraman who was in charge of liaison while taking a rotation rest had nothing on his hands. Seeing Xiao Yao dragging his suitcase and following Xiao Siqi to go, he hurriedly walked over to take Xiao Yao’s suitcase trolley and said, “My kid, I’ll help. You take your luggage. Give me the suitcase and guitar bag.”

Xiao Yao did not let go, and said: “Thank you Uncle Liu, but I can do this by myself, so I don’t need to trouble you.” He remembered that this person was Liu Shanxing when he introduced himself and was in charge of communication.

Liu Shanxing was surprised and looked at Chen Min and Xiao Siqi. Xiao Siqi disapproved and said to Liu Shan: “Master Liu, you can let him hold it by himself. He didn’t let me help him pull the box just now.”

Liu Shanxing scratched his head in embarrassment, and smiled: “Well, I take my own things. I didn’t expect your son to be quite independent. How about I take it for you?”

Xiao Siqi smiled speechlessly, “My son takes everything by himself. I want you to take it for me. Isn’t this waiting for him to laugh at me? Okay, let’s go quickly.”

A few people soon arrived at the airport parking lot. The film crew drove two cars, one was an SUV of a certain brand provided by the show sponsor, and the other was the TV station’s own official car. Xiao Siqi and his son naturally took the SUV provided by the sponsor, Liu Shanxing drove the car, Chen Min took the co-pilot, Xiao Siqi and his son took the back seat, and the others in the group took the official car in the platform.

The luggage was put away, and the four of them got into the car. As soon as he got in the car, Chen Min, the co-pilot, handed over two wireless microphones and introduced: “Si Qi, our filming has started since you got on the car. The car is already equipped with a camera, and now you have to trouble you to wear this little bee. on.”

This is the first time Xiao Siqi has participated in a reality show. After putting the wireless microphone on the T-shirt according to what Chen Min said, he was a little excited and beckoned to the camera on the roof of the car and played with grimacing faces.

“August 1st, you also come to say hello.” Xiao Siqi, who was not enough to play by himself, greeted Xiao Yao again. Xiao Yao glanced at Xiao Siqi and thought that this might be edited and played, so it’s better to be polite. I had no choice but to straighten up and waved his hand to the camera, “Hello everyone, this is Xiao Yao, Xiao Bayi.” After saying that, he fell on the seat again, and took out the earphones from the big pocket on the right side of the pants. He tuned his music player to the track he wanted to listen to, put earplugs into his ears, and closed his eyes.

Chen Min looked at the completely different performances of the father and son with a smile, and asked Xiao Siqi with a smile: “Does Bayi always plug in earplugs and listen to music as soon as I get into the car?”

Xiao Siqi smiled and said, “It’s not right, but we have all watched your shows in the first two seasons. We know that your shows are very troublesome, so I just get in the car and recharge my energy.” Xiao Siqi seemed to say that. I remembered, “Yeah, I have to take the opportunity to take a break. I don’t know how you are tossing us later.” After that, Xiao Siqi stopped playing, put his sunglasses on his nose and tilted his head. Rest in the seat.

“This…” Chen Min was completely speechless to the father and son.
