Fringe artists in the entertainment industry

Chapter 323 321. Come to Tokyo to enjoy the autumn breeze (Happy Chinese Valentine's Day!)

In the bright sofa, Chen Li'an sat on the sofa and read the script of Jing Ke's Assassination of Qin.

Mr. Zhou was sitting next to him with his legs bent and applying nail polish. He stretched his legs from time to time to see if it looked good. The black nail polish looked a bit coquettish and charming, which was completely inconsistent with Mr. Zhou's image.

However, the contrast is very strong and always attracts Chen Li'an's attention.

Maybe the script of Jing Ke's assassination of Qin was mediocre and failed to attract Chen Li'an.

Chen Li'an didn't quite understand why Director Cheng always liked to change the script himself. If he had confidence in himself, why would he find a screenwriter to write the script in the first place.

And hasn’t Feng Yue’s lesson been remembered by him yet? The script was scolded.

After closing the script, Chen Li'an looked at Mr. Zhou and said, "When will you go to Hengdian?"

"We'll set off the day after tomorrow, didn't Gong Li tell you?" Mr. Zhou stretched out his feet in front of Chen Li'an and asked, "Do you like this color?"

Chen Li'an looked at the small and exquisite feet and slender calves in front of him, and pursed his lips unnaturally.

Mr. Zhou took one look in the direction of Chen Li'an's mouth and couldn't help but burst into laughter, stepping on it with his fair and delicate feet.

"It's almost longer than my feet." Mr. Zhou gestured, then retracted his feet and crawled into Chen Li'an's arms, touching his lips with his fingers and said, "How about we go out to play tomorrow?"

"Where do you want to go?" Chen Li'an asked in a low voice.

Mr. Zhou tilted his head and thought for a while and said, "I don't know, just go out and walk around, wherever you go."

"Okay!" Chen Li'an agreed immediately, then picked up Mr. Zhou like a doll and said, "Then let's do something happy now."

Mr. Zhou put his arms around Chen Li'an's neck and smiled foolishly. He crossed his legs around his waist and twisted a few times and said, "I can't help it anymore. Please beg me. If you beg me, I will sit down."

Chen Li'an: "." Still asking? Then I'll let go and see if you can hold on!

In less than twenty seconds, Mr. Zhou's hands were too weak to hold on. He slid down a few centimeters, then his face turned red, and he bit Chen Li'an's chest with blurred eyes.

Chen Li'an looked at Mr. Zhou who was cute and fun-loving, and couldn't help but smile, and then hugged her, fearing that she would fall. However, Chen Li'an didn't sleep well last night and didn't have much strength. After hugging her, he was so tired that he had to let go. one time.

Give me a hug. Let me relax.

In the next few days, Chen Li'an had a lot of fun with Mr. Zhou, and just like what Mr. Zhou said, he could go wherever he wanted, without a destination. The car just chose a direction and it would just go wherever it went.

The important thing about traveling is not the destination, but the scenery and the people who accompany you along the way.

But when they came back, Chen Li'an and Mr. Zhou got lost twice. They were a little embarrassed, but they also had a lot of interesting experiences.

After Mr. Zhou returned, he drove away by himself, and Chen Li'an also started to work.

I will go to Tokyo at the end of the month, attend the singer's promotion and premiere next month, and go to Venice to attend the closing ceremony of the Art Biennale the next month.

When all the things are done, 1997 will almost be over.

When Chen Li'an was calculating his schedule for the next few months, he always felt as if he had forgotten something.

But I couldn't remember it for a while.

At this time, Gao Yuanyuan, who had just finished filming Love Malatang, could not wait to start preparations. She was about to become an adult.

Gao Yuanyuan is looking forward to what kind of surprises and romance Chen Li'an will prepare for her on her birthday.

On September 25th, Chen Li'an got on a plane and flew to Tokyo. He was looking forward to this trip to Tokyo.

The financial crisis has swept through Japan, and the exchange rate between the yen and the U.S. dollar has begun to fall. I don’t know how much money those consortiums will lose this time.

When the financial crisis comes, real estate in Tokyo will also be strongly affected. Chen Li'an plans to take advantage of this time to buy more houses. Anyway, the prices will rise back in the future.

However, investment is only one aspect, the most important thing is to hide the beauty in the golden house.

After arriving in Tokyo again, Chen Li'an was surrounded by reporters as soon as he got off the plane. It seemed as if the financial crisis did not exist and everyone was still paying attention to entertainment gossip.

This time, Ido Muruji was unable to pick up Chen Li'an because he was busy with the closing ceremony, but he arranged for Sakai Noriko and Suzuki Honami to pick him up.

At the airport pick-up gate, Chen Li'an squeezed out of the circle of reporters without saying a word and got into the nanny car arranged by Ido Muruji.

The moment the car door opened, a reporter with quick hands and eyes pressed the shutter, but Chen Li'an blocked half of the car door, so the situation inside the car was not clearly captured.

When the reporter developed the photo in the evening, looking at the blurry figure in the photo, it felt very familiar, but he couldn't recognize who it was.

The reporter curiously checked the whereabouts of Fujiwara Norika and Tomita Yasuko, and found that they were not in Tokyo, and became even more curious.

Chen Li'an has hooked up with a new lover? And there are two women in the photo, hooking up with two of them at once? !

The reporter felt his head was dizzy, but he still started writing the article.

The recent financial crisis has begun to appear in Japan, and newspapers also have their own tasks. They should publish more entertainment news to attract public attention. Otherwise, if it causes panic, the stock market will easily undergo greater changes.

The Japanese yen was attacked just in 1994. If it happens again now, it will take Japan's economy how many years to recover.

This is just the beginning. When the financial crisis really hits Japan, no one will care even if the emperor walks naked around the streets.

Many securities companies in Japan's current financial market are in a precarious state. The failure of one of them will trigger a chain reaction.

Chen Li'an sat in the restaurant and looked at these customers. Most of them were calm, but he could also see that many were worried.

Chen Li'an turned to look at Noriko Sakai and Honami Suzuki and asked, "Have you two made any investments?"

"Investment?" Noriko Sakai was stunned for a moment and said, "I haven't done investment, I don't understand this."

Suzuki Honami nodded and said, "I bought some stocks and bonds."

"Throw it away and exchange it for US dollars." Chen Li'an said calmly.

Suzuki Honami asked in confusion: "Why?"

"The financial crisis is coming, just do as I say. If you want to make money, you can invest all your money in U.S. dollars."

After Chen Li'an finished speaking, he stopped mentioning the topic, looked at them and asked, "What kind of house do you like?"

"A house? I prefer apartments." Noriko Sakai thought for a moment and said, "Apartments are more modern, and I don't like things that are too traditional."

"What about you?" Chen Li'an turned to look at Suzuki Honami and asked.

Honami Suzuki, on the contrary to Noriko Sakai, said with a smile: "Just a yard, I like to have my own yard."

After Chen Li'an nodded and took note of it, he knew what he was thinking. He would give each of them one set as a gift and buy another extra large set for himself so that they could live together next time he came over.

After dinner, Chen Li'an, Suzuki Honaihe and Sakai Noriko went home together. It was still the same courtyard as last time, except that the program in the night theater had some changes.

The name is called Using the help of my girlfriend's bold sister to sneak up on me anytime and anywhere.

The next morning, Chen Li'an, who had acted all night, went to the art exhibition hall. At this time, his works were displayed in the exhibition hall in the form of photos and videos.

However, the art exhibition at this time is no longer popular. After Chen Li'an left last month, artists and journalists from abroad have left one after another.

Without a well-known artist like Chen Li'an, there is really nothing worth remembering about the Tokyo Art Show.

However, there are many artists from China at the art exhibition. The Venice Art Exhibition is too far away for most artists, but the Tokyo Art Exhibition is much better.

Many domestic artists have won awards in Tokyo, including painting, dancing, and drama.

Several art festivals in Tokyo have almost become prize winning places for domestic artists.

To be precise, it is a novice village that is heading towards the international market. There are few people like Chen Li'an who made their first win in Venice.

Chen Li'an looked at the photos taken by Rongrong and felt that they were a bit off. It would have been nice if he had taken them himself. But if he had taken them himself, who would have done the bombing of Tokyo?

I can only say that one loses and one gains.

At this time, there were not many people in the exhibition hall. Not many people came to see the exhibition, and many of them were students.

After Chen Li'an walked around in a circle, he went to find Ido Muranji. At this time, Ido Muranji was having a headache. The funds for the closing ceremony had decreased, and there were fewer artists to participate.

The opening ceremony was created by Chen Li'an and caused a sensation in the global art world. If the closing ceremony was anticlimactic, it would be too disappointing.

Strictly speaking, Ido Muruji is not an artist, but a curator. It is his responsibility to make art exhibitions beautiful.

The only thing that Ido Muruji was lucky about now was that Chen Li'an came to attend the closing as scheduled, otherwise the closing ceremony would have been too deserted.

When he saw Chen Li'an, Ido Muranji greeted him very warmly, and said to Chen Li'an apologetically: "Li'an-kun, I have heard about what happened to you in China, and I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble. "

Chen Li'an waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "This has nothing to do with you. No need to apologize. How are you preparing for the closing ceremony?"

Ido Muruji's face darkened, and he said with some helplessness: "Now there is not so much financial support. The impact of the financial crisis has forced investors to allocate funds. The art transactions at this year's exhibition are also particularly deserted. It is because I did not plan it well. "

Chen Li'an patted Ido Muruji on the shoulder sympathetically and said, "It's the same in Venice. Don't blame yourself too much."

However, the art trading market in Europe and the United States is very good this year. The financial crisis that started at the beginning of the year has made many people in Europe and the United States make a lot of money.

Although the securities market has fluctuated, it does not stop people from making money. Several countries in Southeast Asia have been drained.

Capital is the bloodiest thing. Chen Li'an couldn't help but sigh. He looked at Ido Muruji and said, "Ido-san, if you need me to do anything, you can tell me at any time."

Ido-san is a good person, and he really gives you gifts! You can't chill people's hearts.

"Really? Li'an-kun, could you please invite some artists and art critics here?" Ido Muranji looked at Chen Li'an expectantly.

Chen Li'an nodded immediately and said, "Of course, but do you still have money to pay for the trip?"

"Yes!" Ido Muruji gritted his teeth and said.

As a curator, this is related to his reputation and future reputation. Even if he doesn't have the money to squeeze in from other places, he still has to do it in a lively way!

Chen Li'an looked at Ido Muruji's risk-taking appearance and was no longer infected. He immediately said: "I'll call and invite you now!"

In the next two days, Chen Li'an called all the artists and critics he knew.

At first, Chen Li'an thought that he wouldn't be able to invite many people over temporarily. Unexpectedly, those friends immediately agreed after receiving Chen Li'an's call.

Chen Li'an was quite embarrassed, but when the list was handed over to Ido Muruji, Chen Li'an could clearly see his changing expression.

Ido Muruji is in pain and happiness now. On the one hand, he is happy that so many people can participate, but on the other hand, he is also very worried about the tight funding.

Seeing Ido Muruji being so entangled, Chen Li'an couldn't help but sigh and said, "Ido-san, I can sponsor some funds."

"Really?" Ido Muranji looked at Chen Li'an happily, bowed and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Li An, for your generous donation!"

Chen Li'an waved his hand and said, "Ido-san, we are friends. You gave me a very good gift. This is my return gift."

Ido Muruji was very happy for his decision at that time, and he couldn't help feeling that Chen Li'an was a good person.

Chen Li'an didn't plan to sponsor much money. He got a lot of compensation for participating in the Tokyo Art Festival. This time, he considered it as a rebate, and there might be unexpected gains.

Why did people help him bomb Tokyo and help him block some pressure from Japan? Otherwise, after Chen Li'an's bombing, extremists would definitely besiege him.

Chen Li'an sponsored Ido Muranji for US$200,000 and paid back half of his remuneration. Although it was not much, the money was enough to fill the gap of Ido Muranji.

Of course, Chen Li'an naturally had his own purpose in doing this. He looked at Ido-san and lied without changing his expression: "My previous artistic creation may have caused many people to misunderstand me, so I hope Ido-san can let everyone know about my donation. Even if it is my apology."

Ido Muruji didn't think much and agreed immediately! This thing doesn't cost anything, just say hello.

The next day, Tokyo newspapers reported Chen Li'an's donation to the Tokyo Art Festival.

Chen Li'an's donation was viewed by many as an act of goodwill. People who originally hated him subconsciously thought that Chen Li'an was expressing his apology.

Overnight, Chen Li'an's reputation in Japan has improved a lot. Most people didn't care much about Chen Li'an's previous behavior, and they just felt a little disgusted. Now, doing this has increased their goodwill.

Of course, Chen Li'an's donation was simply to help his friends, not to express his apology. He had a shitty apology.

He has his own little calculation. Tokyo is a very good market and a good springboard. He will continue to make money in Tokyo in the future.

It may seem that you will earn less than 200,000 yuan from your donation now, but you will earn it back thousands of times from them in the future.

On the closing day of the art festival, Chen Li'an met the representatives of the consortium behind Idomura Er again. In a friendly atmosphere, Chen Li'an looked at them and said: "Everyone, I like Tokyo very much. I want to open an art space in Tokyo. I hope to get your support.”

Ido Muruji asked from the side: "Is it the same as Xiangjiang's?"

Chen Li'an nodded with a smile and explained in detail:

"Yes, but there are still some differences. I will create the fourth work in the Wave series here. At the same time, I also want to bring Chinese modern art to Japan. I hope more people can see modern art from China. Art."

Another sentence, Chen Li'an did not tell them that this time the art space will be another attempt by Chen Li'an, with more commercial attributes, and he will start to try to design high-end luxury customization, and may even co-brand with luxury goods in the future.

The reason why I chose to try it in Tokyo is because Japanese culture comes from China and belongs to the relationship between father and son. It will be easier to promote luxury goods from traditional Chinese culture here.

It’s okay to sell a Suzhou embroidered scarf for a few thousand dollars, and it’s not too much to sell a high-end customized Hanfu for hundreds of thousands of dollars, right? It’s not too much to sell a piece of Yun brocade for 18,000 US dollars, right?

By repackaging those handicrafts in traditional culture and working hard, it is really possible to break out of the siege with traditional culture and let the world see a different China.

If this path is feasible, Chen Li'an will establish his own brand in the future and promote Chinese luxury goods to the world. It is a pity that so many traditional handicrafts in China are gradually disappearing.

It’s time for the world to see what luxury goods from China are like.

Chen Li'an looks forward to one day being able to compete with Bernard, but hopes that Bernard will not regret his decision to support Chen Li'an in the first place.

Chen Li'an is still looking forward to finally finding his own business path on the road of art.

Making money is secondary. The main thing is to promote traditional culture as cultural dissemination and protection, and at the same time save a lot of money to buy other people's luxury bags. Why don't we buy our own?

Chen Li'an also realized one thing after what happened last time. If he wants to live well, he needs to develop a real career.

Artists will indeed be respected, but this respect is limited, and they need to continue to increase their chips.

Originally, Chen Li'an thought about working in the entertainment industry, but after thinking about it carefully, his development in the entertainment industry was not restricted by his superiors.

The review alone can make you kneel on the floor and call daddy! Moreover, the upper limit is too low, and it is very inconsistent with my identity.

As for Lixin VCD, it will become Lixin Electronics in the future, but those who will not participate themselves can just be an assistant and be a guiding light for their uncle.

Cultural people should do what cultural people should do.

Chen Li'an hopes that he can become a master of modern art, a representative of traditional Chinese culture, and an epoch-making person in the future.

Otherwise, it would be too boring to do it all over again in this life.

Is it really possible to be a little star and pick up a few girls and then be so happy that you can’t find him anymore?

Real men's speed bumps are never beautiful women, those are just embellishments in life.

Chinese Valentine's Day is not happy at all. It's only 5,000 tonight. I'll add more tomorrow. I'm going to find someone to appease my fragile heart.
