Fringe artists in the entertainment industry

Chapter 117 115. The crew was shocked

In the clear sky, a plane broke through the clouds. The golden sunlight shone on the plane and shone on Bai Qing's face through the small window.

Bai Qing likes the feeling of sitting on a plane overlooking the earth, but he doesn't feel happy now just because there is an annoying guy sitting next to him.

Chen Li'an turned his head and glanced at Bai Qing, who had ignored him all day, so he had no choice but to cover himself with a blanket and sleep.

Isn't it just that I spent more than ten days painting at Sophie Marceau's house?

After a while, Bai Qing heard Chen Li'an's steady breathing, turned his head and looked, then stretched out his hand and patted him on the face.

Pa~

Chen Li'an opened his eyes drowsily, covered his face and looked at Bai Qing, who was looking out the window calmly and pretending to be fine. He opened his mouth but shrank his head, turned around and went back to sleep.

"Shameless." Bo Qing couldn't help but cursed in a low voice while looking at a white cloud that looked like a little teddy outside the window.

Chen Li'an pulled the blanket up and pretended not to hear.

After a while, Chen Li'an's breathing became steady again. Bai Qing turned his head and watched Chen Li'an raise his hand to do it again. But as soon as he raised his hand, he heard Chen Li'an whisper: "It's almost done."

"Humph!" Bo Qing turned his head and didn't look at Chen Li'an again.

Chen Li'an, who was dozing with his eyes closed, turned over and muttered as if talking in his sleep: "I told you this is the kind of person I am."

After hearing this, Bai Qing turned his head and glanced at Chen Li'an, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Yes, he had said it earlier.

Play, play hard, see how old you can be!

When the plane landed in the capital, Bai Qing was no longer cold-faced towards Chen Li'an, but he was still angry and spoke harshly.

"When are you going to Shanghai?!" Bo Qing pressed the luggage he just took out into Chen Li'an's hand and asked.

Chen Li'an picked up the box and said, "We'll go there tomorrow. We've been filming there for many days. If we don't go, the director will probably be replaced."

It was difficult for Bai Qing to understand why Chen Li'an continued to be an actor, but she would not interfere with other people's hobbies. She just said lightly: "I know, send me back."

"Yeah." Chen Li'an carried two boxes and followed Bai Qing out of the airport.

As soon as Chen Li'an returned to Bai Qing's house and put the box away, he saw Bai Qing looking straight at him, and suddenly he had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Well, you have a good rest, I'm going back first." After Chen Li'an said that, he turned to leave, but was grabbed by Bo Qing's collar from behind and held him back.

"You don't want to go anywhere tonight!"

"."

Teacher Bai Qing was really scary when he got angry and would punish students corporally. Chen Li'an's legs were shaking a little when he left Bai Qing's house the next day.

Downstairs in the apartment, Chen Li'an turned his head and glanced at the balcony of Bai Qing's house. Looking at Bai Qing standing on the balcony holding a coffee cup, he muttered with some sadness and anger: "The man is so tired."

The exhausted Chen Li'an had no time to rest, and now he had to rush to Shanghai as soon as possible to join the crew.

This time Chen Li'an no longer has to take the green train. He is now a millionaire, so he has to take a plane no matter what.

At around three o'clock that afternoon, Chen Li'an came to the Republic of China-style street built by the crew in Shanghai.

Far away, Chen Li'an saw Zhang Guorong and Gong Li sitting on chairs reading a script. Opposite them sat a very elegant woman with a very sexy perm, holding the script and talking to Director Cheng. .

Chen Li'an didn't recognize who it was at first sight, but when he got closer, he realized it was Zhou Jie.

But why didn't I see Mr. Zhou? Her only two scenes in the movie were filmed here. Could it be that the filming has already been completed?

Chen Li'an walked towards the crew thoughtfully. He came back in such a hurry that he didn't even call Mr. Zhou to ask what was going on.

As soon as Chen Li'an approached the crew, he was spotted by a stage manager. Just as he was about to speak and chase him away, he recognized the person as the second male lead of the film, so he immediately shouted: "Teacher Chen is back."

The steward's voice immediately made the entire crew turn their heads and look at each other. Everyone's eyes were very strange, as if they were looking at a stranger.

How come the little Transparent who was filming together last year has become a big artist after not seeing each other for a few months?

Is this world a little too magical?

The reaction of the crew was also very strange in Chen Li'an's eyes. Did he wear his underwear outside the COS Superman? Why are you looking at yourself like this?

Zhang Guorong and Gong Li watched Chen Li'an grow from a young actor to an artist, so it was not surprising that Zhang Guorong stood up and shouted to Chen Li'an: "The street boy! Finally he's back!"

Chen Li'an suddenly had a black line in his head, who was calling him a street boy?

Gong Li looked at Chen Li'an with a smile from the side, with deep longing in her eyes. She had not seen Chen Li'an from before the Chinese New Year until now. After not seeing him for such a long time, she realized that she really missed him.

Chen Li'an's image seems to be slowly engraved in her heart over time. I really don't know if it is love or desire.

"Baozi!" Zhang Guorong looked at Chen Li'an and couldn't help but beat him on the chest, but the smile on his face was very strong.

Chen Li'an looked at Zhang Guorong angrily. He would call him a street boy and call him a loser. In the past, he always called him Li'an!

Too much! Must drink all his red wine tonight!

At this time, Director Cheng also came over and asked with a smile: "How was Li'an's gain from going abroad this time? Was the art exhibition a success?"

"It's quite successful." Chen Li'an turned to look at Director Cheng and said with a smile, "Thank you, Director, for giving me a day off."

"Haha, that's right. It's just a pity that I didn't get to see your paintings. I wonder if I'll have the chance in the future." Director Cheng said with a smile.

In the international art world, the status of directors has not been very high compared to painters, except of course for those top directors.

Director Cheng is a top director in China, but his international reputation is still not very good, so he treats Chen Li'an, a newly emerging artist, with a different attitude.

At this time, Zhang Guorong came over and asked softly: "Have your works been sold? Sell them to me."

"This." Chen Li'an looked at Zhang Guorong pretending to be a little embarrassed and said, "I'm embarrassed to sell it to you, and I'm embarrassed to ask for money."

Looking at Chen Li'an who was deliberately being funny, Zhang Guorong punched his shoulder angrily and said, "Are you still embarrassed? Have you sold it?"

Seeing that Zhang Guorong really wanted to collect it, Chen Li'an replied seriously: "Now the painting no longer belongs to me. It will be auctioned in Paris in June, but I don't recommend you to bid."

Hearing Chen Li'an's words, Zhang Guorong seemed to have some realization. He knew some inside stories about the art market, so he said with some disappointment: "That's such a shame, but how much did you sell it for?"

Hearing this question, the people around him subconsciously pricked up their ears and looked at Chen Li'an, waiting for his answer.

Chen Li'an looked at the curious eyes around him, smiled slightly and said calmly: "Not much, the transaction price is only 1.25 million pounds."

"How many?!"

"One million and two hundred and fifty thousand pounds?!!"

"My dear, it's more than 10 million yuan. You can't steal money so quickly!"

People around him couldn't help but exclaimed when they heard this figure. In this era when the per capita salary was several hundred yuan, Chen Li'an told them that several paintings had been sold for more than 10 million yuan, which was like hearing from heaven.

The price Chen Li'an mentioned here was not the price after his own share, but the overall price. The actual money he received was still more than half a million pounds.

Zhang Guorong obviously knew what was going on here. He leaned next to Chen Li'an and asked in a low voice: "Your share is 50%, right? After deducting the various expenses, you should get more than 500,000 yuan."

"Yes." Chen Li'an replied in a low voice. He glanced at Gong Li next to him and found that she was not surprised at all. Only then did she realize that she had asked Gong Li for help when she signed the contract. She knew that she was in 125 How much money can you get in 10,000 pounds?

After Zhang Guorong heard Chen Li'an's confirmation, he said with emotion in a normal voice: "This is the first work you have sold. With such a high price, your manager is really powerful."

"Yes, Ji Fa is a very powerful art manager." Chen Li'an nodded in approval, and then said: "The main reason is that our works are novel enough, otherwise the price would not be so high."

Zhang Guorong nodded and said with approval: "Yes, it's the only one. When you think about it, it feels a bit cheap."

"Well, I think so too. It won't be so cheap next time." Chen Li'an nodded heavily and said. After all, two people are sharing the money. It's not enough to have more.

The few people standing nearby listened to the conversation between Chen Li'an and Zhang Guorong, and they felt very tired. Is this cheap? ! Are we, ordinary people, allowed to live?

Gong Li almost couldn't help but lose control of her expression when she was next to her. She got millions. How much has she earned after so many years since her debut.

Men are so greedy! But I like it so much! A man who is talented, good-looking and can make money is awesome!

Zhou Jie, who originally had no intention of coming over to join in the fun, sat nearby and heard their conversation. She couldn't help but stand up and cast her eyes on Chen Li'an, with inquiry and curiosity in her eyes.

During the time when Chen Li'an was not in the group, she had heard a lot of gossip about Chen Li'an. Her first impression of him was always romantic, but now it seemed like she should add two more words, romantic and talented!

With the last two words, the feeling is different instantly. To put it nicely, it is called romantic, but to put it worse, it is called dirty and scumbag! But after adding the word "talented scholar", the image immediately flipped and became positive.

So, it doesn’t matter if you are romantic, you must be talented, otherwise the romantic will become obscene.

Because of Chen Li'an's sudden return, the crew rested for a while, chattering around Chen Li'an and asking him about things in Paris.

Several people who had a good relationship with Chen Li'an before are now upset. Why didn't Chen Li'an give them a painting last year?

what a shame! ! ! I feel like I’ve missed out on millions!

Director Cheng also had his mind set on Chen Li'an at this moment, and was thinking about whether to let Chen Li'an help make movie posters, whether it be taking photos or painting.

Chen Li'an is already well-known in Paris, and he may become even more famous next year. If this film participates in Cannes next year, it may add a lot of buzz to the film.

It would be best if Chen Li'an could create a work specifically for the movie, so as to further enhance the artistry of the movie!

Wouldn't it be more hopeful if I win the prize?

Director Cheng was thinking about his little plan, thinking about how to talk to Chen Li'an in the future, or how to impress Chen Li'an.

Director Cheng, who has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, has a deep understanding of the truth that there is no such thing as a free lunch. If you want others to help you, you have to pay the price.

Just relying on a name to bluff people is fine for those who are new to the industry, but for an established artist like Chen Li'an, it is not that simple.

However, thinking of Chen Li'an's identity as an artist, Director Cheng felt that he might be able to chat with him about art, and maybe he would be able to impress him. He really couldn't be more tacky and exchange resources.

Director Cheng, who had an idea in mind, looked at Chen Li'an differently.

Chen Li'an noticed the strange look in Director Cheng's eyes and shuddered subconsciously. Could it be that he was being targeted? Chen Li'an felt chilly.

After the crew was busy for a while, they continued to work. The filming task was very heavy.

Chen Li'an, who didn't have a role today, was sitting nearby watching the show. The production director of the crew came over with a smile and asked: "Teacher Chen, you don't have a role today. Do you want to go back to the hotel to rest? I will arrange for a driver to take you there."

Looking at the suddenly enthusiastic external producer, Chen Li'an really felt the words, when you become popular, there are no bad people in the entertainment industry, only good people!

I am just popular in the art circle, so I am treated like this. If one day I become popular again in the entertainment circle, I will be surrounded by really good people!

When he was in Suzhou before, he even arranged for himself to share a room with a lighting engineer. How long ago did he change his mind and become a good person?

The entertainment industry is really magical!

Looking at the attentive external producer, Chen Li'an showed a smile and said: "Don't bother me. I'll wait for the crew to finish work. I have nothing to do when I go back."

The producer smiled and nodded: "Okay, then Teacher Chen, if anything happens, just call me."

"Okay, you're welcome, Producer Sun." Chen Li'an replied with a smile.

"Haha, that's right. That's what external relations are for." Director Sun smiled, and then said politely: "Then I won't disturb Teacher Chen's rest."

Chen Li'an: "."Producer Sun is such a nice guy!
