Surprise! The wife of a top star is actually a Nobel Prize winner

Li Xiao listed the songs he could sing well one by one, removed the ones that were not suitable for stage performance, and took the last ten songs to consult a vocal teacher. He discussed with his team and finally determined the repertoire and stage performance format for his solo show.

He knew what his weaknesses were. He was only good at singing and not dancing, so he chose a song that did not require too many movements based on the teachers' suggestions.

For a personal show, the first thing to show is the skills that one is best at, and it is best to play to one's strengths and avoid one's weaknesses.

After spending a day and a half to decide on the repertoire and asking vocal teachers to help adapt the selected songs, he began to practice over and over again under the guidance of professional teachers.

First, practice the pronunciation of the song, including clear articulation, uniform timbre, natural transition between true and false voices, and smooth breathing.

Then practice the melody and rhythm of the song, without going out of tune, without rushing the beat, and without dragging the beat.

Next is the posture and movements during the performance, one word at a time, one movement at a time, and then repeating to form muscle memory.

Finally, learn to fully understand the meaning of the song, understand the emotions expressed in the lyrics, and then put your emotions into singing.

The last point is what Li Xiao, an art student, is good at.

He discovered from a young age that he was very empathetic.

This may be inherited from Li's mother.

When he was young, he watched TV series with his mother Li. He and his mother were prone to crying along with the people on TV. This even made his father complain about him, saying that as a boy, he was not like a man for crying while watching a TV series.

And every time this happened, Dad would be beaten by Mom's pink fists.

Thinking of these childhood memories, Li Xiao was in a very good mood and devoted himself to practicing day after day.

They had already learned a lot of basic music theory knowledge in the previous three months of training, but at that time, they had to focus more on theoretical learning.

The devilish three-month training camp quickly built a framework for various skills in various fields for these people who were like a blank sheet of paper in this industry, and also greatly strengthened their physical fitness. After all, idols' stage performances require very strong physical support.

Now, the pre-match training is more about applying what has been learned during the training camp, digesting, strengthening and deepening it, and truly turning theoretical knowledge into one's own abilities.

While Li Xiao started a new round of more diligent and arduous study and training for his personal show, all of Qian Cencheng's artist assistant skills learning courses were nearing the end.

Although the subjects she learned were a bit too many and varied, her academic excellence was there, so she learned very quickly.

After she learned everything she should and shouldn't learn, she learned a lot. She didn't argue with the things she hadn't learned. She used her super brain to memorize them firmly, and planned to fully learn, understand, and master them through practice in her future work.

After sending Li Xiao to join the team, she reviewed all the courses she needed to learn and found that as long as she finished the courses that had been booked before the holiday within one or two weeks, she would basically complete this pre-employment learning journey.

After finishing her work, she thought about it, and after seeking the opinions of Uncle Qian and Brother Qing, she quietly added an internship period for herself to follow the current assistant seniors and observe the actual working conditions of the artist assistants up close.

When she mentioned this to Li Xiao during their phone call in the evening, Li Xiao was moved by her professionalism.

After joining the group again, the 16 players no longer had to limit the usage of their phones every day like they did in the training team, because Coach Ma seemed to have not even thought of asking them to hand in their phones. The players were secretly delighted for a long time.

Little did they know, Coach Ma hadn't planned to take their phones away in the first place. They were about to compete, and their training would be even more intense and demanding. They probably wouldn't have the time or energy to play with their phones, so he simply decided not to take them away this time.

However, Li Xiao still had the habit of talking to Qian Cencheng once after dinner every day, and would only contact him on the spot if there was something extremely urgent.

After a whole day of high-intensity training, Li Xiao has now gotten used to chatting with Qian Cencheng about what they did that day during the break after dinner every day. Listening to the girl's clear voice coming from the other end of the phone, although she doesn't say much but her responses are very serious and never perfunctory, always makes him feel relaxed.

That day the two chatted about the rehearsal that was to begin the next day.

"We have to get to the studio early tomorrow morning for rehearsal. There are 16 of us, and this is our first official recording session. The director said everyone gets two rehearsals, so it's probably going to be very late. Do you really want to come tomorrow?"

"Yes, yes. I've already arranged the schedule. From now on, I will follow your rehearsal and recording schedule every week. I'm officially taking up my post."

"From the sound of your voice, it seems like you're looking forward to it?"

"Of course. I've been preparing for so long, and most importantly, you've been preparing for so long. I already love listening to you sing, and after training for so long, I'm looking forward to the stage even more."

"Okay, now that you're here you can give me some advice. Please drive slowly on the way here. We should arrive at the studio around 8 o'clock, so don't leave too early. I'll ask the director and send you the location later."

Because the production team invited some live audiences during the recording of the program, they also welcomed the relatives and friends of the contestants to come to the scene to increase popularity, so during the rehearsal, they did not ban outsiders from entering like they did at the talent show base.

The next morning, Qian Cencheng arrived at the rehearsal site with a slightly excited mood.

When they found Li Xiao, he and other contestants were still gathered around the director, listening to her explain the rehearsal process and precautions.

She then found a corner to sit down and calm her inner excitement. She had run in a little too fast just now.

Holding the big bag between her legs, she could still feel the small snacks such as bread and cookies that Sister Ruoxin had helped her bake before she went out.

Her large bag was packed with a lot of stuff today. Her usual water cup was filled with a throat-protecting tea she'd brewed in advance, containing puffed tamarind, chrysanthemum, and ophiopogon japonicus, specially prepared by a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. She also brought several boxes of Jinsuozi and Xiguashuang lozenges, so she was quite well prepared.

After calming her slightly racing heart, Qian Cencheng looked around curiously at the studio. This was her first time in two lifetimes at a live studio, so it was quite a novelty.
