The Pentium Era - South to North

Wenwen called Zhang Chen and told him, Mr. Zhang, you are a celebrity now. If I don't want to do it, I must be your agent.

Zhang Chen held the phone in his hand and laughed dumbly, scolding: "Stop talking nonsense, what kind of agent do I need?"

"Of course, all celebrities need agents." Wenwen shouted, "Otherwise, what would you do if someone invites you to attend some event or interviews you on TV stations, newspapers, and websites? It's nothing for you to interview them. Are you a platform for others? You are a celebrity, how dare you lower your face and bargain with others? Why don't you leave it to a shameless person like me?"

Zhang Chen laughed and said quickly: "Okay, Wenwen, thank you for your kindness. However, no one has invited me to participate in any activities now, and I am not interested in attending."

"Oh, someone will come to invite you soon." Wenwen said, "Also, I am your agent, and I will also take the initiative to help you contact events and interviews. Events must be paid. As for interviews, some are accepted and some are not, depending on the media."

"Go away, I'm not a monkey, am I being led around by you? I don't want to live like this." Zhang Chen scolded.

Wenwen laughed on the phone and said, "If you were a monkey, I would be reluctant to lead you away. I will definitely hold you every day and let you smell your fragrance."

"Go away again." Zhang Chen scolded.

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, but I have made an agreement with you. If you let someone else be your agent, then I won't do it. I will pester you every day." Wenwen said.

Zhang Chen didn't want to continue messing around with her, so he hung up the phone.

After hanging up Wenwen's call, Liu Qing called. She told Zhang Chen that the response to the first ten issues was good and the leader had assigned the task. "Painting Theory" will continue. After finishing your oil painting studio, we will continue As for other museums, we have already contacted the National Art Museum of China. Brother Zhang, if you have time, come and take a look at their collections.

Zhang Chen said that if they want to continue, it will not be their turn yet. I will have no problem doing dozens more issues here.

Liu Qing said, I know, no, I let you take a look first, just to make you feel prepared. By the way, I will go to their place, and they seem to be very familiar with you.

Zhang Chen said yes, our oil painting gallery has business dealings with them, and we usually lend each other collections.

"That would be even better." Liu Qing said, "Also, my colleague came to me, not from our Literature and Art Department, but from the Special Topic Department. Their "Hundred Lecture Forum" column wanted to ask Brother Zhang to give a lecture on the National Art College When you come, Brother Zhang, I will arrange a trial lecture. If you pass the trial lecture, you can officially start the lecture."

Zhang Chen was shocked. He usually read "Hundred Schools Forum". He knew that the lectures there were all professors and experts. How could he be qualified to give lectures? Zhang Chen quickly said no, no, my ability is limited.

Liu Qing smiled and said: "Brother Zhang, you are being humble again. I asked you to be the general consultant, but you said no. Look at the results, how good the response was. Isn't it the "Hundred Schools Forum"? You can definitely do it, Brother Zhang." I know you better than you know yourself.”

"But, the people I like on that show are all professors and experts..."

"What, are you afraid? Brother Zhang, since when did you start to be afraid of professors and experts? We usually interact with you, but you have never been afraid." Liu Qing said.

Zhang Chen was stunned for a moment, yes, wasn't he usually very arrogant? When he talked about it, he always said that others were bullshit experts and professors. Why did he admit that he was a coward at this time? Have you ever bowed to authority?

Zhang Chen murmured: "It's not that I'm afraid, but..."

"But what? Brother Zhang, you are also an expert."

Zhang Chen smiled and said: "I am something of an expert."

"Of course you are an expert." Liu Qing said, "How many people across the country can discover the value of Chinese oil paintings so early and start to collect and protect them consciously? What does it mean? It shows that you have a unique vision. The so-called experts, don't you just have a unique vision? , can discover things that others cannot, and can see values ​​that others cannot see. Brother Zhang, why are you not an expert?

"After our special topic was broadcast, there was a great response at home and abroad. Many people in the industry called us and asked us to convey their gratitude. They said, what you did is amazing. If it weren't for you, there would be so many excellent works. , probably more than half of them will disappear and be buried, but you saved them.

"By the way, someone has contacted us and said that they also want to donate their collection to your oil painting gallery. I have given them Zhao Xin's phone number.

"Brother Zhang, the program "Hundred Schools of Lectures" has a great influence now. If you appear on "Hundreds of Schools of Lectures", on the one hand, it can expand the influence of your oil painting studio. On the other hand, it can also allow the National Art Academy to move westward during the Anti-Japanese War. Let more viewers know about it.

"Let them understand that at that time, in the flames of war everywhere, there was not only the Southwest Associated University, which preserved the cultural fire for this country, but also a large number of people. How do you put it? I remember it was, in their own words Their feet measure the broken rivers and mountains, preserving the lifeblood of art for this country. They are as evocative as the soldiers in front.

"Now, there are almost no people left alive at the National Art College. Brother Zhang, you were the one who had the most contact with these old gentlemen when they were still alive, the one who understood them the best, and the one who was most trusted by them. I think you have a responsibility to tell their stories, they shouldn’t go untold.”

Zhang Chen was convinced by Liu Qing's words. He said okay, Liu Qing, I will try to the best of my ability.

"Okay, Brother Zhang, are you ready? Decide when to arrive in Beijing. I will finalize the trial time with them. By the way, Brother Zhang, do you have an agent?" Liu Qing asked.

Zhang Chen smiled and said, "Why do I need an agent?"

"Of course. Otherwise, you have to negotiate and implement contracts, program schedules, event arrangements, etc. by yourself? That would be a waste of time."

Zhang Chen said: "I don't have an agent, but I have a friend who said she wanted to be my agent."

"Does she have experience in this area?" Liu Qing asked.

Zhang Chen said yes.

"Where are people now?"

Zhang Chen said, right in Beijing.

"Brother Zhang, please give me her phone number. We also need to finalize the contract with her for the set of books we are collaborating on." Liu Qing said.

Zhang Chen agreed and told Liu Qing Wenwen's phone number.

In the afternoon, Wenwen called Zhang Chen again and said to him: "Boss, I will take the latest flight today to Hangzhou. I will arrive at 9:30 in the evening. You can pick me up at the airport."

Zhang Chen smiled and said: "Oh, you have such a sweet mouth, why did you change your name?"

Wenwen giggled: "I am already your agent, so of course I have to call you boss."

"Why, Liu Qing contacted you?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Not only did I contact her, I also met with her and the producer of CCTV's special topic department." Wenwen said.

"Moving so fast?"

Zhang Chen was surprised. He just gave Wenwen's phone number to Liu Qing. Unexpectedly, Wenwen was in Beijing and had already started working.

"Of course, I am serious about being an agent." Wenwen said.

…

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Zhang Chen picked up Wenwen at Xiaoshan Airport. As soon as we met, Wenwen told Zhang Chen that I only had one night, and I would rush back to Beijing tomorrow afternoon and have a meeting with a film crew tomorrow night. The film's assistant director met and they wanted to hire Nan Nan to play the second female lead in it.

"It's so urgent, then why are you rushing here?" Zhang Chen said.

"When discussing a contract with you, I need to understand your work. It's embarrassing to be your agent and not understand your work at all." Wenwen said, "I have to meet with the producer of CCTV the day after tomorrow. , at the latest the day after tomorrow, you are going to Beijing to give a trial lecture, and you can prepare in these two days."

Zhang Chen smiled and said: "I'm not in a hurry, you can come in a few days."

"Why aren't you in a hurry?" Wenwen shouted, "It's true that you are a celebrity now, but do you know that celebrities have a shelf life? We need to take as many orders as possible while you are still fresh and tender. Son, only by frequently appearing on TV and in the media can you prolong your shelf life. Let me tell you, once the shelf life is over, you will pass it on to others and they will ignore you."

Zhang Chen laughed, looked at Wenwen and said, "You are really good at it."

"Of course." Wenwen handed the trolley case to Zhang Chen and said to him: "Boss, hold it for me."

Zhang Chen took Wenwen's trolley case and pushed it forward. Wenwen took two steps to catch up, stretched out her hand to hold Zhang Chen's arm, and said to him: "Let's go."

The two people walked towards the parking lot. Wenwen and Zhang Chen said, I am your agent now, and you have to listen to my arrangements. Do you know that everything I arrange for you is for your own good. If you don't Listen, I'm going to go crazy.

Zhang Chen laughed and said, OK, I will listen to you.

"That's pretty much it." Wenwen giggled.

The two got in the car, and Zhang Chen asked Wenwen: "Go to the hotel to stay first?"

"No, no." Wenwen quickly shook her head and said, "There are a lot of things to do today, let's do it first."

Wenwen looked at her watch as she spoke and muttered: "It's already ten o'clock. By the time everything is done, it will probably be past twelve o'clock. At that time, if you go to the hotel and grind with the little girl at the front desk, you can still grind for half the price." house."

Zhang Chen laughed and said no, I'll treat you.

"Tch, your money is not money? Are you a rich slut?" Wenwen said, "Let's go to the office first."

Zhang Chen said okay, let’s go to the dynamic zone.

The car drove not far away, and Wenwen asked, boss, can you go in to the "Lakeside Oil Painting Gallery" now?

"Of course." Zhang Chen said.

Wenwen said: "Then let's not go to the dynamic zone and go to the 'Lakeside Oil Painting Gallery'."

Zhang Chen got curious and asked, "Why?"

"I don't know anything about oil painting or the National Art School mentioned in the contract. Please teach me, otherwise it won't be embarrassing if I talk to them again, and they will think I'm very unprofessional." Wenwen said, "By the way, is there a place to sit in the oil painting gallery? I'm exhausted."
