Entertaining Children

   Chapter 812 Why Didn't I See Yang

  The party on the night of arrival in Vieques was considered a bonus for the models. Starting from the next day, the shooting team was back to work. Chen Xuan and the models continued to shoot the still photos of the swimsuit special, while Xiao Yao and Louis continued diving training in the nearby waters.

Although Vieques is inhabited, its area is only 132 square kilometers, with a population of less than 10,000, while Puerto Rico, where San Juan is located, has an area of ​​nearly 9,000 square kilometers and a population of more than three million. . Compared with San Juan, Vieques doesn't have much to play. The models already knew that Xiao Yao was learning to dive with a diving instructor, and wanted to get an OW diving license before leaving, so in the past few days in Vieques, the models who did not have a shooting mission did not come to find Xiao Yao again. As a translator and tour guide, I took them out to play.

  In the daytime on the second day after arriving at Vieques, Xiao Yao and Louis spent most of their time doing diving training in the waters not far from the shooting location. When there is a suitable wave, the two will get out of the sea. Louis teaches Xiao Yao to surf by the way. When the two were tired of staying in the water, they ran ashore to find a suitable place to watch the models on the beach take pictures. This day is really satisfying and fulfilling.

  Whether it’s the photo shoots of the models or Xiao Yao’s diving and surfing training, they are all carried out during the day when the light is better. When night fell, the models ended their shooting, and Xiao Yao and Louis's diving and surfing teaching also ended.

  When he was in San Juan before, Xiao Yao rarely went out to surf at night. Now he has started to learn diving and surfing. During the day, he consumes a lot of physical energy, and Xiao Yao would not go out and run around at night. After dinner and a shower, Xiao Yao lay comfortably on the sofa in the room and played on the computer.

   "Boom boom~" There was a knock on the door.

   "Come on!" Xiao Yao shouted and got up to open the door.

   "Who is it at night?" Xiao Yao couldn't help muttering as he walked to open the door.

  During this period, no matter how crazy Xiao Yao played with the models during the day, he never went to the models’ residences at night, even when he was neighbors with the models on Paddo Island. Similarly, the models have never come to his residence at night to look for him. They are always looking for him to go out to play during the day. At this time, someone knocks on the door, and Xiao Yao is unavoidably puzzled.

   "Yang, good evening!" Xiao Yao opened the door, and a middle-aged white man outside the door greeted Xiao Yao with a smile.

   "Mr. Goodman, good evening!" Xiao Yao responded with a smile, "Anything?"

  The man's name is Elbert Goodman, and he is the head of the shooting team for the Eva Swimsuit Special. In addition to Chen Xuan's final decision regarding the shooting of the still photos, other things such as the itinerary, logistical support, event arrangements and even the shooting of the documentary are all up to him. Although Xiao Yao temporarily joined the filming team this time was requested by Chen Xuan, it would be difficult for Xiao Yao to join if Elbert Goodman, the person in charge of food, clothing, housing and transportation in the chief management team does not nod his head. Xiao Yao had dealt with him before he came, and he was naturally very polite and polite to him.

   "Just call me Elbert," Elbert Goodman smiled, "I really have something to talk to you. Do you have time now?"

   "Of course!" Xiao Yao smiled and nodded, and stretched out his hand to make a request, "Can you talk in my room? Come in!"

   "Of course!" Elbert Goodman nodded and stepped in.

  "Please sit down!" Xiao Yao asked Elbert Goodman to sit down on the sofa, then poured him a glass of water, and then sat down opposite him.

  "Have you had a good time these days?" After sitting down, Elbert Goodman didn't enter the topic immediately, but asked Xiao Yao with a smile.

   "Very pleasant!" Xiao Yao smiled and nodded, "It is very good in all aspects. This is definitely a very wonderful experience for me."

   "Speaking of which, I also want to thank you again." Xiao Yao folded his hands and bowed his head in a gesture of thanks, "Thank you for agreeing to join this extraordinary team temporarily."

"You're welcome!" Elbert Goodman smiled and waved his hand. "You also did a lot of work. Especially you get along well with the models, and the interaction with those girls is very exciting. Let us have a lot of interesting content in this documentary, and I am very glad you are here. For us, this is a win-win decision!"

  "Speaking of documentaries," Elbert Goodman took the opportunity to get into the topic, "I came to you this time is also related to documentaries."

   "Oh? What exactly is it?" Xiao Yao asked.

"You know, we also recorded the party yesterday as a documentary material." Elbert Goodman said, "The Spanish song you sang at the party yesterday was very good. The atmosphere is also very good. When we make the final editing of the documentary, we will definitely edit this section. But here is the copyright issue of your song. You know, our documentary will be broadcast on the TV station. "

  It must be a commercial activity to take a documentary to a TV station. Since it is a commercial activity, there are issues of portrait rights and copyright.

  Xiao Yao knew he was going to make a documentary before he came, and it didn’t matter to be on TV. Since he was coming, the portrait rights had already been discussed with Eva. But he didn't plan to perform singing before he came, so the copyright of the song has not been discussed. The party was prepared in advance, and Eva had already negotiated the copyright of the song that the band performed, but Xiao Yao’s song was temporarily forced out by the models. This documentary has to be broadcast on TV. This is a problem. We have to talk about it first. The laws in this area in the United States are much stricter than that in China. The more well-known large companies like Eva, the more cautious in these aspects.

   "It turned out to be this," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "This is not a problem, you just cut it in and broadcast it. I will give you the copyright of that song for free."

   "Really? That's great!" Elbert Goodman said happily. Although Eva is not bad for the money, it is naturally better to get the right to use it for free.

   "But I also have something I want to ask you for help." Xiao Yao continued, "It is not an exchange of terms. Whether you agree or not, I will give you the right to use the song for free."

   "Well, you say. As long as I can do it, I will try my best." Elbert Goodman nodded.

"My business is also about the song at the party last night." Xiao Yao said, "My song has not been officially released, but it will always be released in the future. I want you to give me a copy of the song you shot yesterday. I will edit the video material of the evening party by myself, then add the song and make it into a MV. When the song is officially released, I don’t need to shoot the MV separately, just use it as the one. The official MV of the song."

  After Albert Goodman mentioned the song last night, Xiao Yao thought of the MV problem. There were twelve supermodels of Eva at the party last night, and the documentary filming team must have captured them all. If you use the video material from last night's party to make the MV, it is equivalent to twelve Eva supermodels co-starring in his MV. A MV with twelve supermodels of Eva as actors, how awesome it should be! Thinking of this, Xiao Yao's thought came out.

"Good idea!" Elbert Goodman also reacted immediately. He gave Xiao Yao a thumbs up and smiled and praised Xiao Yao, "You are too smart! The MV for twelve Eva supermodels co-starred, there must be A lot of people want to watch it!"

"There is no problem with the material captured." Elbert Goodman continued, "But I have to remind that MV is also a commercial practice, and there is also a problem of portrait rights. When those girls came to shoot the swimsuit special Knowing that if you want to shoot a documentary, Eva must have the right to use their portraits, but your MV does not. Of course, it shouldn’t be difficult to get them to authorize it when you get along with them these days. But you can’t let them know If you become an actor in your MV, you should let them know in advance."

   "Understand, I will!" Xiao Yao said, "Thank you for your reminder. I will talk to them tomorrow."

"Okay, I'm finished talking about my business, so I won't bother you to rest anymore." Elbert Goodman stood up and stretched out his hand to Xiao Yao, "Wish you that song and that MV All can catch fire, goodbye!"

   "Thank you!" Xiao Yao got up and shook hands with Albert Goodman, and brought him to the door.

  Early the next morning, Xiao Yao got up early and went to the shooting location by the sea, and then one by one the models went to talk to them about the portrait rights of the MV. The models are very fond of Xiao Yao. I heard that Xiao Yao will release their performance at the party the night before as a MV. They all expressed their unconditional support, and none of them asked Xiao Yao to be paid.

  At night, Elbert Goodman came to Xiao Yao’s room again and sent him the video footage of the party the night before.

   "Thank you!" Taking the USB flash drive with the video material, Xiao Yao once again thanked Albert Goodman.

   "You're welcome," Elbert Goodman waved his hand with a smile, and said, "I heard that those girls have promised you."

   "Yes," Xiao Yao nodded with a smile, "Elbert, I have one more thing I want you to help?"

   "More? Let's talk, what's the matter?" Elbert Goodman was not impatient, and asked Xiao Yao with a smile.

"You know, the models all agree that I use their videos to make MVs, and they are all free." Xiao Yao said, "I also want to do something for them, to express my gratitude to them. At the same time, I am also very grateful. The team has taken care of me these days and also wants to do something for the staff behind the team. After the filming of tomorrow is over, everyone will leave the day after tomorrow. I plan to do a performance for everyone tomorrow night and sing for everyone. , What do you think of this idea?"

"Very good!" Elbert Goodman smiled and nodded. "After hearing you sing at the party that night, many people liked it! You are willing to perform for everyone, I think everyone is very Happy! What do you need me to do for you?"

"Thank you!" Xiao Yao said, "As far as the performance is concerned, I can do it alone. You don't need to hire a band for me. But I need you to prepare the venue and equipment! Of course, you can also record this performance. As the material for your documentary, and all the songs performed in the performance, I also give you free use rights for your documentary."

   "Okay, no problem!" Elbert Goodman happily agreed, and then asked, "What equipment do you need, do you have any requirements for the venue and layout?"

"In terms of equipment, I don't need a lot of things. I made a list." Xiao Yao handed Elbert Goodman a piece of paper. "There are no requirements for the layout of the venue, but I have an idea tomorrow. I can help you decorate it together."

   "Okay!" Elbert Goodman took the piece of paper handed over by Xiao Yao and looked at it, then smiled and said, "That's it!"

  The third day when I came to Vieques, it was the last day of the shooting of this swimsuit special.

  This afternoon, after taking the last photo of the last model, Chen Xuan specially called all the models and staff together, announced to them that the shooting was over, and thanked them. Just as everyone applauded each other, Elbert Goodman came over and announced to everyone that a musical performance was arranged for everyone in the evening, and the stars were invited to perform for everyone, so that everyone could watch the performance in the evening. .

  According to the itinerary, after a one-night rest on Vieques tonight, we will leave for San Juan early tomorrow morning, and then we will go to San Juan’s airport and go to each other. We have been together for more than ten days, and we have developed some feelings. Organizing a group activity again on the eve of the separation, everyone has a fun together, it is really a very good arrangement.

  Everyone is very happy to hear Elbert Goodman’s arrangement. But when everyone asked which singer or band they invited, Elbert Goodman played a mystery and refused to reveal who the performer was, saying that he would know when everyone went there at night.

  After dinner, everyone reunited and set off for the performance.

  The audience of this performance is only members of their filming team, and no local people participate. The location of the performance is within the filming area rented by them, not far from everyone's residence. You don't need to take a car, just walk there.

"Why didn't you see Yang? Did anyone see Yang?" A group of models joked and walked a few steps. Jacqueline suddenly found that there was no Xiao Yao in the team, and couldn't help but curiously asked the humanity around him, "Tonight's collective Shouldn't Yang also participate in the event?"

   "Yeah, why didn't you see Yang?" Abby, who was walking by her side, looked around, but also didn't find Xiao Yao, and asked curiously.
