Since Yin Chang and Shao Junling had never practiced singing, the staff first took them to the vocal room and asked professional teachers to help them sing the song.
Yin Chang thought it would be shameful to read the lyrics at home, but he didn't expect that it would be the Shura field in the recording studio!
The vocal music teacher was a man in his thirties. He was fat and had a quack look on his face. He could see that the two brothers were nervous, so in order to appease them, he gestured boldly and said, "Don't be afraid! Just let go and sing! You can't sing." What a sound repairer! Any out-of-tune can be fixed!"
However, wrong beats or out-of-tune can be corrected by the sound repairer, but the emotions during singing cannot be repaired.
This theme song is obviously a song with a cheerful rhythm, which requires the singer to perform it with a cheerful mood. It would be even better if the natural laughter of Xue Ziwen and Wang Chen can be added.
Since Yin Chang's debut, he has followed the route of "Prince of Melancholy", and his emotions are rarely particularly high. Shao Junling is even more out-and-out with facial paralysis. It is estimated that it is an emotional expression disorder caused by his early experience. This kid will only have a big change in expression when he is particularly excited or angry.
At the beginning, the vocal music teacher was quite enthusiastic: "Come on, little guy, let's sing the first sentence as cutely as possible!... No, no, no, you can't sing so indifferently, you have to show that you are looking forward to your brother's hug." mood!... Uh, raising your volume doesn't mean you're in a good mood... just smile and be happy... you, you wait... that smile just now was too far-fetched... "
He turned his head and asked Yin Chang quietly: "What's the matter with this kid's fake smile all the time? Is he unhappy?"
Yin Chang: "No, he just doesn't have a very obvious expression... It's the same at home..."
The vocal music teacher continued to look at Shao Junling with a smile on his face: "Little guy, are you ever particularly happy? For example, when you meet your parents and want them to hug you!"
Yin Chang: "Sorry teacher...he has no parents..."
Vocal music teacher: "..."
The vocal music teacher forced a smile and tried to bring the atmosphere up: "It's okay, it's okay! Come again! Let's practice the next sentence first. As long as you two read these two sentences, they can be added to the background music later. Yin Chang, you also have to behave Get excited, don't be so calm... Imagine that you want to take your younger brother out to play, and you still have the naughty feeling of doing bad things behind your parents' backs... Shao Junling, you have to be more anxious, because you are still wearing pants... "
Yin Chang was confused: "Teacher... I actually don't quite understand the connection between digging out a bird's nest and wearing pants..."
Vocal music teacher: "..."
The vocal music teacher took a deep breath and said, "Well, I'm sorry, I'm going out to smoke a cigarette..."
A minute later, Yin Chang heard the man breaking down and complaining to the producer outside: "What's the matter with those two brothers! Where did you invite these fake brothers! I'm so embarrassed to hear them sing! !!"
Yin Chang & Shao Junling: "..."
Originally, the program group wanted to arrange for them to record together with Wang Chen and Xue Ziwen, but it was absolutely impossible for them to enter the recording studio with Wang Chen and Xue Ziwen in this state. After Wang Chen and the others finished recording, Yin Chang and Shao Junling were still locked up. Practice words over and over again in the small black room.
Before leaving, the uncle and nephew came over to greet them as if watching the excitement, especially Wang Chen, whose gloating mood was almost written on his face.
After grinding for a long time, the two barely passed the test.
The vocal music teacher was depressed by the two of them, and when he sent them away, he had long since lost the pride he had when he first met, which made Yin Chang worried about the final effect of the song.
Fortunately, the MV of the theme song is an animation, so they don't need to perform "Happy Hugs and Lifting High" in real life. They just need to take some photos, cut them into a headshot and fit them directly with the animation.
At the beginning of June, the official blog of "Super Star Life" was quietly opened to promote the program, and released some tidbits of the guests one after another, but in the later stage, everyone was coded and blurred to hide their real names and intentionally hang netizens appetite.
At the end of June, there are only ten days left before the first recording. The program set up a "Super Star Life" guest group, and brought in the "parent representatives" and their respective managers of the five families. But since everyone was unfamiliar with each other, the group fell silent after the initial pleasantries.
At the same time, Shao Junling was also going through the final exam of the first grade of Deyin Elementary School.
A few days later, Yin Chang, who was working in the field for filming, received a WeChat message from Mr. Lin: "Hello, Yin Chang, sorry for the inconvenience. Although the school has regulations not to disclose the specific ranking of the students to any parents, I still can't help but think about it. Let me tell you the good news—Shao Junling's final grades this semester ranked first in the whole year!"
Yin Chang was a little shocked, and asked, "What about English?"
Teacher Lin: "His grade in the English test this semester is A+, and the speed of his progress is really unbelievable. I heard from him that you hired a tutor for him. It seems that the tutor is very qualified. Of course , your younger brother is also very good."
Yin Chang: "..."
Teacher Lin: "According to the current situation, the school will make special curriculum arrangements for him in the next semester to prepare him for skipping grades. Maybe this time next year we will let him directly take the final exam of the third grade. The teachers in the teaching and research group feel that with It is only a matter of time before his ability catches up with his peers. So now we pay more attention to cultivating his good subjects and special skills. This semester, he applied for the information technology innovation course and the robot design course, and he performed very well. His teacher also took him to participate in the Huazhong Cup Primary School Mathematical Olympiad Competition, and he won the first prize... "
Yin Chang wondered: "...he won the award? When?"
Teacher Lin: "In April, he took the trophy back home and received a bonus of 1,000 yuan from the school. Didn't he tell you?"
Yin Chang: "...no."
At that time, Yin Chang was busy working on releasing a single...
Teacher Lin smoothed things over and said, "Haha, maybe he wants to hide the bonus secretly from you."
…
After hearing so much from Teacher Lin, Yin Chang realized that he hadn't paid much attention to Shao Junling's situation in the past six months.
Thinking of the quarrel between the two brothers in early May, Yin Chang felt a little guilty belatedly.
That kid has made such great progress in his studies, but he doesn't even have a chance to tell him... No wonder he's so angry.
Yin Chang thought for a while, and then called Shao Junling's Taekwondo gym in anonymous mode.
He didn't give his name, but said that he was Shao Junling's parent, and wanted to ask about Shao Junling's training in the past six months.
After checking some private information that Lu Lingjuan had previously registered for Shao Junling, the Taekwondo Hall asked Shao Junling's coach to answer the phone.
"Oh! You are Shao Junling's parent! Your child is doing very well!"
"... Thank you, I saw a few days ago that he has a green belt."
"That was the exam at the beginning of May. He just signed up for next week's promotion exam yesterday. It is estimated that he will be able to change to the blue-green belt soon."
"So fast?"
"I also think it's a bit fast. In fact, the training for children under the age of 15 in our gymnasium is mainly based on the cultivation of interest and physical fitness. Although the gymnasium provides an assessment once every two months at the earliest, I personally don't recommend it for children. The exam is so urgent... I thought it was your parents who asked him."
"...I don't ask anything from him."
"Oh, so it's probably because he has a stronger personality?"
"Will he be able to bear this body?" Yin Chang worried.
"Don't worry about this. Before the exam, we will evaluate the student's ability. If he is too reluctant, we will not let him take the exam. He should have no problem in the next week's promotion exam. If he passes the exam, he can be matched with a companion of the same level. I will hold him down a bit when he gets promoted in the later stage."
"Well... is he getting along with his companions?"
"Hahaha..." The coach laughed awkwardly, and said, "How should I say this..."
"Say it straight."
"Hey, your kid is a bit fierce. To be honest, the kids who came in at the same time as him are all afraid of him."
"..."
"But our curator likes him very much, and said that when he rises to the red belt, he will take him personally..."
"..."
After hanging up the phone, Yin Chang felt a little complicated.
He knew that Shao Junling had a tendency to be violent, and he beat Xue Ziwen when he first entered Deyin, and he dared to collect protection fees at school last semester... But after a few times of education, he thought that Shao Junling had improved a lot—at least he was quite docile in front of him of.
For example, last time, he thought Shao Junling was going to fight him, but in the end the little guy just cried.
But now, after hearing what the coach said, Yin Chang couldn't help but start to worry again.
He remembered that in the parent-child program they were going to participate in, there would be two 14-year-old twins. These twins were children of athletes, and their parents had won many championships.
Yin Chang read the information given to him by the screenwriter when he was free. It said that the two children are also quite competitive, especially the elder brother...
Yin Chang immediately felt a lot of pressure. When the time came to record the show, he had to concentrate on Shao Junling.
A few days later, Shao Junling officially returned home for the summer vacation.
Yin Chang had learned about his grades from Mr. Lin, and had already prepared a gift for him as a reward.
But after waiting for two days, Yin Chang didn't see Shao Junling announcing the good news to him, so he could only put the gift in the study in a humble way, waiting for the little guy to find out by himself.
Moreover, it is estimated that preparations for the Duan exam will be imminent. Shao Junling will go to the Taekwondo gym every day after the holiday, and he will go for a whole day, and he will not come back until he is exhausted.
Yin Chang counted the days and wanted to praise him symbolically on the day he finished the exam. However, when Shao Junling came back that day, he had already showered and changed in the gymnasium, so that Yin Chang didn't even know if he had passed the exam...
Until he went to bed at night, Shao Junling climbed onto his bed—since the quarrel in early May, Shao Junling would sleep with him every now and then without asking his opinion. After a few times, Yin Chang got used to it... sleeping with this little guy It can be used as a human body pillow when you fall asleep in the middle of the night, which is quite comfortable.
"Brother." Shao Junling finally took the initiative to say something to him.
"Huh?" They were going to record the program the day after tomorrow. Yin Chang told Shao Junling during dinner that he was using his iPad to watch the itinerary sent to him by the program team.
Shao Junling lay beside him, stared at him seriously for a while, and before Yin Chang couldn't wait to ask him what he wanted to say, he suddenly said, "Don't be afraid."
Yin Chang is inexplicable, what is he afraid of
Shao Junling blushed: "I will... protect you."
Yin Chang was stunned for a while, and almost burst out laughing, what's in this kid's head? He needs protection? Thank goodness this kid didn't give him trouble.
But hearing Shao Junling's rhetoric, Yin Chang couldn't bear to hit him, after all, it was the child's wish.
Yin Chang rubbed his head and said with a smile, "Okay, fool, go to sleep."
On July 7th, the recording of "Super Star Life" officially started.
Since this show is filmed throughout the whole process, before the guests go out, some photographers will come to their homes to take some photos of their living environment as material.
Yin Chang had already read the script and knew that the people from the program team would come at nine or ten o'clock this morning. He told Yang Na in advance and asked Yang Na to tidy up the house.
But he never expected that the program team would play tricks on him on the first day.
From 6:30 to 7:00 in the morning, the photography team that followed him and Shao Junling arrived at their home.
Yang Na only heard from Yin Chang that the people from the program team would come, and didn't know the exact time, so she asked the security guard to let him go and opened the door for him.
When the photographer walked in with the camera, Yin Chang and Shao Junling were still sleeping in the bedroom.

[Interlude]
Shao Junling: My brother seems so nervous recently, is he afraid of being on the show? Definitely yes, he was detained when we went to record a song together, he must be more nervous than me... Well, I will try my best to pass the green and blue section before recording the program, so that I can protect him well when he is on the program. o(￣ヘ￣o)
Yin Chang: "?"
