Fringe artists in the entertainment industry

Chapter 104 102. Chaoyang! Morning sun!

In the bright bedroom, there was a faint smell of perfume in the air, which was a little sweet, like eating a peach.

Chen Li'an looked at Cheng Meiren, who had a youthful face, and fiddled with her hair with his fingertips. He turned to look at her and asked, "Are you going out again?"

"Well, I accepted an advertisement and am going to Yangcheng." Cheng Meiren looked tired with her brows and wiped the corners of her mouth with her fingers, then wiped it on Chen Li'an's chest in disgust.

Chen Li'an took out a piece of paper and wiped the corners of Cheng Meiren's mouth, then wiped his chest, and then said, "It feels like you spend more time acting in business than filming."

"There's no way. We don't have any filming now, so we can only earn more money by accepting more advertisements." Cheng Meiren pulled the blanket to cover her chest, her fingers restlessly drew circles on Chen Li'an, then she raised her head and looked at him and said: "Who asked you to make money so fast? If I don't make a little more money, when will I be able to support you?"

Chen Li'an smiled, put his hand into the blanket and held down Mei Cheng's dishonest hand and said, "You believe me when I say I made millions in Xiangjiang? Aren't you afraid that I will lie to you?"

"No, you won't lie to me." Cheng Meiren's fingers seemed to be twisting walnuts in the blanket. She couldn't put it down because of the soft touch. She stood up and lay on Chen Li'an's shoulder and asked, "I'll leave tomorrow. , please don’t go home tonight, okay?”

Chen Li'an coughed and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to get up tomorrow."

"No, it would be better if you were gentler." Cheng Meiren licked her lips and said.

That makes sense!

Early the next morning, after Chen Li'an saw Cheng Meiren off, he cleaned her small yard and left.

As the New Year is approaching, it seems that everyone has suddenly become busy. Gong Li has also taken up activities and gone out of town. Mr. Zhou is also busy auditioning everywhere. Chen Li'an was walking on the street with nothing to do for a while.

Chen Li'an didn't go home all night, and Bai Qing was almost furious. Wherever he went to ask for a bill, he could ask for it all day and all night!

Bo Qing, who was furious, suspected that Chen Li'an was hiding from him on purpose, and the delaying tactics seemed to be useless.

The days are long, and I will be in love for a long time, so I don’t believe that I can’t win Chen Li’an.

Bai Qing, who wanted to understand, immediately went out and called Chen Li'an.

"Where are they?" Bo Qing asked, holding the phone in the phone booth, without asking Chen Li'an where he went last night.

Chen Li'an, who was sitting in KFC eating French fries, knew that Bai Qing was urging him to go back, so he said to the phone: "I'm eating. Did you have lunch? Do you want me to bring you something to eat?"

"No, just bring some with you." After finishing speaking, Bo Qing urged: "Come back quickly and start painting in the afternoon."

"Okay, I'll go back right away."

Half an hour later, Chen Lian went back with a bag of KFC. Bo Qing looked at Chen Lian and bought so many things. He frowned and asked, "Why did you buy so much? You are not going to eat this at night."

These days, KFC is not synonymous with fast food and junk food, but Bai Qing still doesn't like this kind of foreign fast food.

Chen Li'an put down the paper bag in his hand and said, "No, bring some to the boys in the yard and distribute them to them after school."

"You are quite like a big brother who takes the lead." Bo Qing took a hamburger from the bag and took a bite. He looked at Chen Li'an who was sitting opposite and kicked him and said, "Go and prepare things and start painting immediately."

Chen Li'an was still very motivated to get down to business. After preparing everything quickly, Chen Li'an sat on the pony and looked at the big easel in front of him. He felt that his room was still too small.

After getting the money, he still has to change his house. Chen Li'an is a little confused whether to buy a flat-floor apartment or a courtyard house.

I have become accustomed to living in a large courtyard for so long. The courtyard is much more comfortable than an apartment.

After finishing a burger, Bo Qing sat over, leaned next to Chen Li'an and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Do you think a courtyard house or an apartment is better?" Chen Lian turned his head and asked.

buy house? Bai Qing said subconsciously: "Let's go to the courtyard. From now on, children can play in the courtyard, and the apartments are impersonal."

Chen Li'an's mouth twitched, wondering why he was talking about a child. He glanced at Bai Qing strangely and said, "Let's talk about it. Let's go draw first."

The room suddenly became quiet. Both of them adjusted themselves, then looked at each other and picked up the brush and started painting.

The quiet time flows away quietly like the gurgling water in the south of the Yangtze River. The sunshine outside the house slowly dissipates, and the quiet yard becomes noisy with the arrival of night.

Chen Li'an and Bai Qing in the room devoted themselves wholeheartedly to their creations, and were not disturbed by outside interference. They only got up and turned on the lights after the light dimmed, and continued to paint.

Art creation is a very interesting thing. When you are inspired, you will be selfless and devoted, but when you are not inspired, you don’t even want to move a finger.

Now Chen Li'an and Bo Qing are in very good condition. The two of them are close together, and the brushes in their hands combine to leave brilliant colors on the black and white photos.

The red briquettes in the stove in the house began to turn gray and white, the water in the kettle gradually became warmer, and the spout of the pot could no longer generate much heat.

After an unknown amount of time, Bo Qing couldn't help but sneeze. The brush in his hand suddenly paused and he clicked a blue dot on the painting.

Chen Li'an looked at the blue dot and fell into silence. Originally, he was planning to draw a red sun at that position, but now it seems that it seems to fit in unexpectedly.

Bo Qing wiped his nose and looked at the blue dot on the screen. He was about to scrape it off with a scraper, but stopped when his eyes fell on it.

Accidents can often be equated with art, and Bo Qing's unexpected move seems to have made the painting more agile.

Chen Li'an and Bo Qing turned to look at each other, and they could see surprise and surprise in each other's eyes.

"A stroke of genius." Chen Li'an said softly, feeling that this accident was simply perfect.

Bai Qing nodded, and then couldn't help but rub his arms. The temperature in the room was really low, and the fire in the stove was almost extinguished.

Chen Li'an put down his paintbrush, touched Bai Qing's forehead, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go here today. You put on some thick clothes while I turn on the stove."

Bai Qing nodded, stood up and put Chen Li'an's military coat on his body, feeling much warmer now.

Chen Li'an picked up the kettle, glanced at the stove that was about to go out and frowned. Now that he put in new briquettes, he might not be able to light it.

Chen Li'an came to the yard and took a look at the lights in all the houses. He couldn't change the briquettes, so he could only try to see if the temperature in the stove could ignite the new briquettes.

After using the tongs to grab two new briquettes into the house, Chen Li'an put them on easily, but it didn't look like they would burn.

Chen Li'an thought for a moment, took out a bottle of Erguotou from the cabinet, poured it on the paper and threw it in.

A blue fire suddenly lit up in the stove, and a strong aroma of wine floated in the room. Chen Li'an sniffed and felt like he was getting drunk.

However, the stove was still lit. Chen Li'an touched his belly and took out the KFC that was originally intended for the boys to eat and heated it next to the stove.

"Eat whatever you want tonight." After a while, the hamburger and fries became warm. Chen Li'an handed Bai Qing a burger and said, "Eat some, and I'll take you to have a good meal tomorrow."

Bai Qing hummed, took the burger and took a bite.

In the silent night, Bai Qing, who was lying on the bed with the lights out, leaned into Chen Li'an's arms and said, "I'm still a little cold."

Chen Li'an turned to look at her and said, "Why do I feel like you are like a small stove? Don't you have a fever?"

"Well, I feel a little feverish." Bo Qing put her arms around Chen Li'an's waist and whispered, "I want to sweat a little."

Sweating is easy. Getting water is not difficult either.

Chen Li'an turned over and hugged Bai Qing, using his own body temperature to warm her plump body.

Time flies so fast, Chen Li'an and Bai Qing have been painting in the house for almost a week.

Now has reached the most critical moment. The two of them have almost cut off contact with the outside world. Except for going out to eat every day, they are almost always creating.

Chen Li'an's cell phone has been turned off for several days, and he is completely disconnected. He doesn't want to be disturbed at this time.

There are several paintings that have been painted against the walls of the room. This set of Jiangnan-themed works has a total of seven units, that is, seven paintings. Each painting is a photo and an oil painting.

Bo Qing and Chen Li'an have already painted the first six paintings, and now is the last and most important painting.

The bottom of this painting is the photo, which is a sunrise in Tongli Water Town taken by Chen Li'an from a high altitude. The red rising sun dispersed the fog that filled the ancient town with its golden sunlight.

This is the core of this group of works by Chen Li'an. The first six paintings are too dark and depressing, so it is necessary to rely on the golden light and the rising sun in the last painting to break through the gloomy theme and complete the final sublimation.

The shackles of feudalism, dogma, rules, and class on human nature were finally ignited and burned away by the bright red sun.

This photo is also the largest of all the photos. The huge size means that the creation difficulty increases.

Chen Li'an and Bo Qing spent three days painting this painting, but only completed a small part of it. It was not that they were slow in painting, but that they were afraid to start painting as they drew to the end.

I always feel that I can't draw the effect I want.

Chen Li'an dropped the brush in his hand a little irritably, looked at the photo in front of him, frowned and thought for a while. Bo Qing sat beside him without making a sound, holding his chin up and thinking about how to express the desired effect.

After more than ten minutes of silence, Chen Li'an and Bai Qing turned to look at each other and said in unison: "Watch the sunrise!"

"Go, go, go!"

Chen Li'an immediately felt that he had grasped the light in the darkness, grabbed all the brushes, paints and the painter, and pulled Bai Qing out.

Bai Qing casually grabbed their coats and was pulled out by Chen Li'an.

There are many places in Beijing where you can watch the sunrise, but there are not many that meet the requirements of Chen Li'an and Bai Qing.

The two of them didn't communicate with each other after leaving the yard, and headed straight towards the inner ring with a clear purpose. It was now around four o'clock in the morning, and there was almost no one on the street.

The two of them were wrapped in thick coats and looked a little excited. They held hands tightly together, like lovers running towards freedom and the distance.

In the empty square, Chen Li'an opened his coat, wrapped Bai Qing in his arms and said, "I haven't been so excited for a long time. It's like I'm about to witness a miracle."

Bai Qing turned his head and glanced at the easel that had been set up. He looked through the golden tiles on the tower and towards the pale sky in the east.

The patrol team in the square has passed by Chen Li'an and Bai Qing several times. If it weren't for the paints and easels on the ground, they would have been taken away for questioning by now.

Soon it was getting brighter and brighter. Bo Qing got out of Chen Li'an's arms, buttoned his coat, walked to the easel and looked at him, and at the same time picked up the brush and waited quietly.

As time went by, the emotions in the two people's hearts also brewed to the extreme. Until a ray of sunlight passed over the golden eaves and shone directly on them. The emotions accumulated in their hearts finally broke out and were vented on the painting through the brush in their hands. .

The golden sunlight shone on the two of them, as if giving them a hazy golden edge.

The patrolling team in the square subconsciously slowed down when they passed by them. A photographer who came to take pictures on the edge of the square couldn't help but pick up his camera to record the scene when he saw it.

There is more and more sunlight in the square, and the bright red walls are becoming more and more vivid. Chen Li'an and Bai Qing's eyes are only red. The bright red and dazzling golden sunlight on the picture are becoming more and more dazzling.

The photographer behind the two felt a sense of sacredness watching this scene, and subconsciously held his breath for fear that he would disturb them.

Chen Li'an and Bo Qing completely forgot where they were, and did not notice that more and more people were watching around them. Their black eyes only contained the brilliant colors on the screen.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Li'an and Bai Qing's movements slowed down, and the color applied to the painting also decreased, until the last touch of red on the brush was applied to the painting. The two of them paused at the same time, as if they had lost all their strength. The hot light in his eyes was also dissipating.

snap

The paintbrush in Chen Li'an's hand fell to the ground, and the sound was heard in the quiet square. Several people around him breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

At this time, the noisy sounds in the square reached the ears of Chen Li'an and Bai Qing. The two looked at each other and couldn't help hugging each other. They looked into each other's eyes and couldn't say a word.

The photographer behind them also boldly raised his camera at this time, and with just a click, the scene of the two embracing each other facing the rising sun was recorded. In the picture, the stunning and shocking painting behind them was It was also recorded.

This photographer was a reporter from a newspaper. He came here today to take pictures of the flag raising, but he didn't expect to accidentally record such a shocking scene, so he immediately pulled Chen Li'an and Bai Qing to interview them.

Chen Li'an and Bo Qing, who had empty minds, faced the reporters' endless inquiries. They simply answered a few questions and went home with the completed paintings.

The two of them were very excited at this time, but their bodies were very tired. They lay on the bed and looked at each other sideways. After more than ten seconds, the two of them started moving at the same time. They came close to each other and kissed each other passionately, as if they were trying to break the pain in their hearts. The diminished excitement is vented.

Art creation seems very simple. It is not tiring to carry cement at the construction site, nor to cultivate in the yellow land, but only those who have truly completed a work will know what kind of consumption it is.

It will hollow out everything in your heart, hollow out your brain, and make you lose all your strength and spirit.

Ever since Chen Li'an and Bo Qing finished painting, they were like dehydrated fish in the room, they just wanted to lie down and do nothing.

It took two days to regain some vitality and regain focus and light in my eyes.

Chen Li'an sat up from the bed and scratched his greasy hair, feeling that he was about to get moldy.

"Get up and go take a shower." Chen Li'an pushed Bai Qing, who was lying dead next to him.

"I don't want to move, please help me wash it." Bo Qing turned over and continued to lie down.

Chen Li'an frowned, put on his clothes and jumped out of bed. Looking at Bai Qing who was in a vegetative state, he felt a pain in his head.

Ten minutes later, Bai Qing, who was wearing crooked clothes, was pulled out by Chen Li'an.

In the mist-filled bathhouse, Chen Li'an's skin leaning against the pool was slightly red from the heat, but he didn't feel any discomfort at all. Instead, he raised his head and closed his eyes with enjoyment on his face and fell asleep.

The warm water temperature made Chen Li'an feel like he was alive again, especially after letting the strong man rub his back. He felt like he could kill a cow and then skewer it and grill it.

More than an hour later, Bai Qing, who was also refreshed and energetic, sat opposite Chen Li'an and ate hotpot mutton.

After taking two big bites, Bo Qing put down his chopsticks, took a breath and said to Chen Li'an: "I finally came to life. It's too dangerous to be with you."

Chen Li'an lowered his head and ate without talking to Bo Qing. He had not yet fully come to life.

The copper pot was filled with heat. Bo Qing looked through the steam at Chen Li'an who was lowering his head to eat and said, "I've known you for a few months and I almost felt like I died twice. I don't know if it's luck or misfortune."

The death that Bai Qing talks about is not physical death but psychological death. Every creation that consumes all her energy and energy makes her feel a sense of desolation.

If you practice Taoism, you will definitely become a god! Reach the state of freedom with no desires or desires.

After finishing two plates of mutton, Chen Li'an wiped his mouth and felt that he was completely alive. Then he looked up at Bai Qing and said, "If you are afraid, it is too late to leave now."

Bai Qing rolled his eyes, kicked Chen Li'an under the table and said, "I won't!"

"If you don't leave, I won't leave. Why are you kicking me!" Chen Li'an glared at Bai Qing angrily, and then got down to business: "I will go to Xiangjiang after the Chinese New Year to finish filming the other half. When I come back, I will leave the splicing work to you. is you."

Bai Qing became more serious when he heard this, looked at Chen Li'an and said, "I want to go with you, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to figure out your thinking."

Chen Li'an thought for a moment and realized that it was indeed the case, so he said, "Okay, I'll apply for a pass later and come with me after the new year."

"Specific time?" Bo Qing asked.

"After the 15th, you should hurry up and apply for a pass. You won't be able to apply for it after the New Year holiday." Chen Li'an replied and then explained: "I have to go to Suzhou in April, and Director Cheng's movie has not been filmed yet. It’s over, the exhibition needs to be done as soon as possible.”

Bo Qing nodded, and after calculating the time, he felt that the time was a little tight, and said: "Then we have to go as soon as possible, before the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. Ji Fa's place will probably start the exhibition in March."

"Okay, then before the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, we will fly directly to Shencheng."

I’ll update one chapter first. I’ve been feeling a little bit unlucky these days and have too many troubles. I’ll update another chapter later.
