Fringe artists in the entertainment industry

Chapter 149 147. Friends should be honest with each other!

The capital city was particularly quiet at night. There were only a few cars on the airport expressway, but the atmosphere inside the cars was not that quiet.

"Sister Bai Qing, thank you for sitting in front with me. I like to talk to people while driving."

While driving the car, Gong Li said to Bai Qing, "Congratulations on winning the Golden Lion Award."

The co-pilot's Bai Qing had no expression on her face. If she didn't want Chen Li'an to sit in the co-pilot, she wouldn't take the initiative to sit in the co-pilot.

"Thank you, and thank you for coming to pick us up so late."

us?

Gong Li raised her thin eyebrows slightly, glanced at Chen Li'an in the back seat through the rearview mirror, who was pretending to smoke, and then said with a smile: "You don't have to be so polite, if Li'an hadn't called me specifically, I would have gone to bed long ago. "

When Chen Li'an heard the conversation between the two, he curled his lips slightly, "What kind of word game are you playing? Boring woman, boring conversation."

Can't friends be more sincere?

Can't you be honest? Bah, be honest with each other? !

Chen Li'an threw the half-smoked cigarette butt out of the window, and then thought about where he should get off the car later. If he got off with Bo Qing, Gong Li would be angry. If he went back with Gong Li, Bo Qing would be angry.

It seems that today I can only go home alone. The final destination of a single man is a cold bed and hands with nowhere to put them.

"I'll be sent to Fangzhuang later. I won't go to Zhushikou Street." Chen Lian looked at the scenery of the East Second Ring Road, patted the driver's seat and said.

Gong Li asked without looking back: "The house is decorated? I haven't bought anything yet. Can I live in it?"

"My friend helped me get it. I just packed my bags and checked in." Chen Li'an leaned on the back seat, as comfortable as an uncle.

Bai Qing suddenly said at this time: "If you go to Fangzhuang, I will go too, otherwise you will have to trouble Sister Gong Li to take me to Xicheng in a big circle."

"No, I definitely want to enjoy the new house by myself." Chen Li'an refused immediately. He just wanted to go home and have a good sleep alone, and didn't want to spend the night with anyone.

Enjoying solitude is also a rare freedom.

When Bai Qing heard Chen Li'an's rejection, she stopped talking. She knew Chen Li'an too well and it was useless to say anything. She had left herself and Jifa to find Sophie Marceau when they were in Venice.

It is simply impossible to expect a dog man to find his conscience or soften his heart.

In Chen Li'an's own words, what he loves most in the world is himself, and no one can stop him from maintaining inner happiness.

Gong Li looked at Chen Li'an in the rearview mirror and was silent for a moment before saying to Bai Qing, "It's okay. You drive very fast at night, and I also live in Xicheng."

"Okay, thank you." Bo Qing turned her head and looked at Gong Li and said.

The two women looked at each other at this moment, and suddenly felt a sense of sympathy for each other, but they quickly dispelled this ridiculous feeling and stopped looking at each other.

At this moment, Chen Li'an felt that the rules of friendship he followed were simply great. No one had any choice or position to ask or accuse him of anything.

However, if others knew about this idea, they would definitely call Chen Li'an shameless, but Chen Li'an didn't care. It would be such a failure to live without being scolded by others.

Gong Li wanted to curse right now. She was really a free driver when she came to pick someone up in the middle of the night!

She was still angry, but she still remembered the business. She slowed down the car slightly and looked at Chen Li'an in the rearview mirror and said: "The news that you won the Golden Lion Award has spread. Director Yang of the National Art Museum of China asked me to make an appointment. You want to meet me, Director Wang, who I met last time, also wants to meet you."

It was no surprise that the news of winning the Golden Lion had spread, but what surprised Chen Li'an was that Director Yang and Director Wang had something to do with him.

"What do they want to do with me?" Chen Li'an asked curiously.

Gong Li shook her head and said, "I don't know, but Director Yang asked you about studying at Nortel. It may be related to this aspect. As for Director Wang, I don't know, but it must be a good thing."

After hearing this, Chen Li'an nodded slightly, thought for a moment and said, "Then tomorrow, you can help me make an appointment with Director Wang. As for Director Yang, I will go back and contact him alone."

"Okay, I'll pick you up at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon." Gong Li responded, and then accelerated the car.

It was more than 30 kilometers from the airport to Fangzhuang, and Gong Li drove there in less than half an hour. It seemed that she wanted to end this bad driver experience quickly, go home and have a good sleep to avoid being pissed off.

Chen Li'an took his luggage from the trunk. Before he could say hello to them, Gong Li stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

Chen Li'an was left alone in the night with his hands half raised in embarrassment.

"Women are really vindictive. I'll kill you if I don't get married in the future!" Chen Li'an muttered, carrying his suitcase, and ran towards his new home.

Gong Li and Bai Qing were the only ones left in the car. Neither of them spoke casually, but remained silent.

Bai Qing is thinking about buying a car now, not least because he doesn't want to cause trouble to Chen Li'an's "good friends", and he can't let them work hard as Chen Li'an's driver.

Gong Li glanced at Bai Qing, hesitated for a while and then asked, "When did you and Chen Li'an meet?"

"It's very early." Bo Qing didn't say much. She didn't like to share her own things with others.

Gong Li didn't care just to open up the topic. What she was most concerned about was Bo Qing's attitude towards Chen Li'an.

"Do you want to be with Chen Li'an?" Gong Li asked directly.

Bo Qing turned to look at Gong Li and said, "This has nothing to do with you."

"It really doesn't matter." Gong Li glanced at Bai Qing lightly, and then said: "Actually, I don't think that much about him. If we are happy together, we will continue. If we are not happy, we will say goodbye. I have never thought about forever, even if we really leave. In the end, I didn’t have the energy to guard myself every day.”

Gong Li said it very directly and rationally, but Bai Qing vaguely felt that she was deceiving him, but there was no flaw in Gong Li's expression, and in the end he just gave a cold hum.

Seeing Bo Qing's attitude, Gong Li didn't want to say anything more. There are always people who think that they are special, but they have never suffered any loss!

Chen Li'an, who had already got off the car, was walking in the community at this time. Looking at the environment of the community in the night, he felt that it was not bad.

I was finally able to live in the house a few months after I bought it. Chen Li'an didn't even come to see it during the decoration, and he didn't know how it would turn out in the end.

When Chen Li'an opened the door with great expectation, he was stunned as soon as he turned on the light.

Why is the bathroom light on?

Could it be possible that someone came to steal it? Bah, bah, bah, disgusting!

The sound of Chen Li'an opening the door also alerted the people in the bathroom. Mr. Zhou, who was wrapped in a bath towel carelessly, walked out carefully with a toilet in his hand.

Mr. Zhou suddenly woke up when he saw Chen Li'an standing in the entrance hall. He immediately threw away the toilet in his hand and rushed towards him.

"You're back! You scared me to death!" Master Zhou hugged Chen Li'an and said with some fear, "I thought he was a thief."

Chen Li'an lowered his head and glanced at the stupid and bold Mr. Zhou, and said angrily: "If you are really a thief, you are just delivering food!"

Mr. Zhou blushed and defended in a low voice: "I got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet. Who wears so much to sleep?"

Well, who allowed Mr. Zhou to be free by nature, just like Chen Li'an.

Chen Li'an patted Mr. Zhou on the back and said, "Okay, let go of me first. Why are you here tonight?"

"I saw in the newspaper that you won the award. I wanted to call you to congratulate you, but before I got through I found out that you were going back to China, so I'm waiting for you here in advance." Mr. Zhou immediately said with a smile, with a smile on his face. With a little pride.

"You are the only one who is smart!" Chen Li'an scratched Mr. Zhou's nose and suddenly felt that Mr. Zhou was the one who was really smart. He was stupid enough to take the lead instead of competing.

Mr. Zhou let go of Chen Li'an and asked with concern: "Are you hungry? Let me get you some midnight snack."

Chen Li'an shook his head. He had already eaten on the plane. He had no appetite now. He just wanted to see how his house was decorated.

The furniture style of the 1990s was really a bit rustic. Even though Chen Li'an was willing to spend money and bought imported furniture, the overall style still had a strong flavor of the era.

Mr. Zhou, who was following Chen Li'an, stepped on the wooden floor with his bare feet and introduced the layout and furniture of the room to Chen Li'an as if taking credit.

During this period of time, she had been helping Chen Li'an keep an eye on the decoration, which made her feel like she was building a new house for herself and Chen Li'an.

Although Chen Li'an felt that the furniture was a bit rustic, he was generally satisfied. He turned around and looked at Mr. Zhou and said, "It's very good. It's much better than I expected. Thank you for your hard work during this time."

"It's not hard, I have nothing to do every day anyway, and I can't get any roles."

Speaking of this Mr. Zhou, I felt melancholy, why couldn't I get the role?

What’s wrong with being shorter! What’s wrong with not being from the Big Three!

Chen Li'an would like to introduce some work to Mr. Zhou, but now is not the time. He will talk to her later when it is finalized.

You can't really let Mr. Zhou be your driver. It's better to let Chen Meiren be your driver. The car is so safe to drive.

Mr. Zhou's driving skills are still a bit immature, maybe because he is too small, so he drives slowly and carefully every time.

Chen Li'an glanced at the time and it was almost three o'clock, and said to Mr. Zhou: "It's getting late. I'm going to take a bath and rest early."

"Well, do you want me to help you?" Mr. Zhou asked, grabbing Chen Li'an's hand.

Chen Li'an shook his head and said, "No, it will be fine soon. You can go to bed first."

Mr. Zhou: "Don't pretend to be stupid!"

"Oh" Chen Li'an touched his nose and said, "Okay then."

The next morning, Chen Li'an and Mr. Zhou were sitting at the dining table eating brunch.

Mr. Zhou put his little face on the table a little tiredly. He had no appetite to eat and felt full and lazy.

Seeing her like this, Chen Li'an smiled and said, "You should have a good rest at home. I have an appointment with someone in the afternoon and I won't be back tonight."

Mr. Zhou was now in a state of overeating, with no desire at all. He waved his hands lazily, not caring who Chen Li'an had made an appointment with and why he didn't come back.

After Chen Li'an finished his lunch, he simply packed up, called Gong Li and went out.

After Chen Li'an waited for a while at the gate of the community, Gong Li drove over.

Chen Li'an opened the car door and sat in before he spoke, when he heard Gong Li say: "Director Wang and I asked around, and it seems that there is a task for you and an award for you."

Chen Li'an: "Is it too late to get out of the car now?"

"It's too late!" Gong Li stepped on the accelerator and set off, seriously analyzing with Chen Li'an: "I recently studied the domestic art circle. There were many painters participating in the last Art Biennale, but most of them were Popism and playfulness are not in line with correct values. Your works and style are more positive and uplifting, plus you won the Venice Golden Lion, so you understand, right?"

I understand. But I really don’t understand.

Chen Li'an scratched his hair irritably and sighed helplessly, feeling that he had failed to live up to the award Claire gave him.

As expected, modern art cannot be pure. Maybe we will really have to play classicism in the future.

Gong Li looked at Chen Li'an and comforted him: "I know you don't like this kind of thing, but no art can ignore its social impact. Don't you know that the Painter Village was demolished this spring?"

Chen Li'an sighed and said, "I know, it's just that this kind of thing is thankless, and it's hard for me to control myself."

"If you can't control it, you have to control it, unless you want to be like the artists in the Painter Village." Gong Li warned Chen Li'an seriously, for fear that he would not be able to distinguish the importance.

Chen Li'an twisted his neck and said: "Understood, if it's not too difficult, I won't do anything random. At worst, I will also engage in playfulism in the future, which suits me just right."

"It's good to know the importance. I won't let you do really embarrassing things. I'll promote you as a model if I can't bear it. Art can't always be pop and fun." Gong Li analyzed very knowledgeable.

Chen Li'an turned to look at Gong Li and said, "Sister, you understand too well now, there is nothing you can do in return."

Gong Li raised a smile on her lips. After waiting for a while, she didn't hear the next sentence. She looked at him unhappily and asked, "Is it gone?"

Chen Li'an said shamelessly: "Don't say words like "promise" between friends.

"Then get out of the car now!" Gong Li snorted. Without even promising her, what kind of happiness could the two of them have?

Chen Li'an: "." It seems that I can only feed my sister with my body.
