The entertainment industry is sober

Chapter 166 That's Interesting

On May [-]st, Lu Yao received a call from her cousin - "Yaoyao, let's go to Suzhou for a trip on May Day!"

"What do you say?"

Lu Yao couldn't believe it!

If her roommate hadn't just told her "Happy May Day" before going home, she might have thought it was April [-]st.

"I said, let's go to Suzhou for a trip~"

Seeing her cousin's naughty face, she dared to repeat it again, Lu Yao couldn't control the universe anymore!

"Yesterday I found out that your movie was finished, so I immediately called you and asked you out to play, but how did you tell me? Ah~ I haven't had a vacation for several months~ I'm going to stay at home these days~ But just after one night, you changed your mind? I just made other arrangements, and you came to see me again?"

No matter how fickle a woman is, she can't be so fickle, right?
"Cough cough, this time is right now, you have to look at the problem from the perspective of development."

Listening to her cousin pretending to imitate her, Ni Bingyan was still a little embarrassed after all.

Think about turning on the lure mode and lobbying desperately: "Sister! I remember you told me last time, that red dress, there is another flower wedding or tea party, and it is sold in the Shanghai stock market. Speaking of which, Suzhou is far from Shanghai. The city is not far away, I will take you to buy it, how about it?"

Lu Yao was shamefully moved, but she still didn't agree immediately.

After all, the income from drawing comics in the past few months has been good, and she can still spend tens of thousands of dollars after gritting her teeth.

What's more, since she stopped chasing stars, her family has given her a lot of pocket money.

Don't try to make me surrender with money!
Lu Yao clenched her hands into fists, but she still managed to resist her cousin's money offensive.

"Tell me honestly, what the hell are you doing there? Don't tell me you're going on a trip. I'm not three years old, so you can fool me!"

She said yesterday that she would rest at home on May Day, she was not lying.

Considering that her cousin really worked for several months without any vacation, Lu Yao expressed her understanding.

As a result, just as the vacation plan was re-made, my cousin suddenly changed her mind and decided to go to Suzhou.

Ni Bingyan was a little embarrassed.

"Follow me to an art exhibition!"

"Since when did you become interested in art exhibitions? You still travel so far to see them? I haven't heard of any important art exhibitions recently!"

Lu Yao is a student of painting. Although she is a student of oil painting, she knows a lot about the industry news. It is not so easy for Ni Bingyan to fool her.

"Ahem, okay, I have two paintings, and I'm exhibiting there..."

After all, it was the first time to experience such a thing, and Ni Bingyan was a little bit shy while being happy.

She thought it would take some time before it started, so she wanted to take advantage of the holiday to rest at home.

I didn't expect to be notified there, because the preparatory work was completed relatively smoothly, the exhibition was scheduled for May, and today happened to be the first day.

Just like those who crawl through the grid, they have read it countless times before publishing it, but after publishing it, they will still secretly buy it back and take another look.

In the same way, she has seen those two paintings countless times, but what will they look like hanging in the exhibition hall?As a creator, of course you want to know.

Therefore, upon hearing the news, Ni Bingyan couldn't stay at home anymore!

As a new hobby of his own, Ni Bingyan just wants to like it secretly, and doesn't want the public to know.

Once Sister Wei knows, she may be asked to upload her own paintings on the official blog, or take pictures of her paintings to gain fans.

If you let your partner know that when recording a program or running a promotion, let her show off from time to time for the sake of her career, she will definitely not be able to refuse.

But that feeling was like when I was a child during the Chinese New Year, whenever someone came to the house, her father would ask her to sing a song or recite an ancient poem.

I believe that everyone who has a similar experience understands.

So whether it's selling paintings or participating in exhibitions, she does it secretly by herself without telling anyone.

But after all, this is something that makes her happy. What's the point of being bored in her heart like walking at night in brocade clothes?Just looking for someone to share.

It just so happens that my cousin is a painting student, has a professional aesthetic for painting, and can understand her thoughts. It is most appropriate to bring my cousin to go to the art exhibition.

Sure enough, upon hearing the news, Lu Yao screamed.

"What?! Art exhibition?!!"

Even across the Internet, Ni Bingyan's ears hurt from her shock.

He exaggeratedly raised the phone high, but Ni Bingyan couldn't control the smile on his face.

After a long time, Lu Yao's excited voice came from over there: "Sister! Which unit organized the art exhibition? You are too awesome!"

She started to learn painting because she saw her cousin learning it when she was a child, and found it very interesting, but she continued to learn, and for the sake of future development, she switched to oil painting.

For those who study painting, if they can't draw results, it is very likely that the highest-standard art exhibition they have participated in in this life is the graduation art exhibition held by the school.

Even for people in the industry, it is not easy to be invited by a famous unit to participate in the exhibition.

Cousin is an amateur player, so being invited is something to brag about, no matter what the organizer's style is.

After hearing the news, Lu Yao was a little bit sad, but she was more happy for her cousin when she was over.

[As expected of my own sister! 】

"Oh, it's an art gallery over there, do you want to go?"

The south of the Yangtze River has been gathering together since ancient times, and there are as many literati as there are crucian carp crossing the river, so there are naturally many art galleries.

Ni Bingyan didn't want to waste time talking nonsense, so she wanted to leave immediately.

"Of course I'm going! I'll buy a ticket now!"

"Okay, let me see first, what is the earliest time I can buy here."

The two sisters didn't bother to talk much, bought tickets, packed their luggage in a hurry, and set off separately.

Lu Yao's side is a little farther from the airport, and the plane will take another [-] minutes to fly. Ni Bingyan arrived first, and waited for more than half an hour before waiting for someone.

Lu Yao was thinking about this all the way, and she had a stomach full of questions, but as soon as she grabbed her cousin's hand, her stomach growled.

"Let's go! Find a place to eat first, and then I will tell you slowly."

There is food everywhere at the airport, except that it is expensive, there is nothing wrong with it.

The two chose a fast food restaurant at random and walked in.

"Hey, the food of this airline is notoriously unpalatable. I looked at the time and figured it was the right place to eat, so I didn't eat it at all."

After finding a quiet corner to sit down, Lu Yao was embarrassed to explain.

"I didn't eat either. Hurry up and let's make it quick!"

Ni Bingyan's mind is now full of art exhibitions. If her cousin was not hungry, she would have gone to the exhibition hall because she was hungry.

The two ordered a bowl of ramen each, and the waiter quickly brought them out, along with a delicious shredded seaweed.

The two of them were half full, and seeing that there was almost no one in the shop, Lu Yao started to ask.

Ni Bingyan didn't hide it from her, so she told the cause and effect.

"You joined a fan group, and you sold several paintings?"

After studying oil painting for so many years, I have to try my luck to get an order. What kind of freak is my cousin?Draw a picture in spare time, and there are still people who spend so much money to buy it!
Speaking of my cousin's luck, if I add a random group, I will add a reliable one, which is really pissed off.

"Later, someone asked me to write a fan for them, drawing and inscribing at the same time, which is very interesting! I am embarrassed to charge too much for such a small piece, so just give me 888, 666 or something like that, and I will agree."

Lu Yao cried enviously.

She really wanted to say, cousin, you should go out and inquire about the market price!
Thinking about how looking down on her cousin, she didn't say it.

After all, she hasn't seen her cousin's paintings for many years, and she doesn't know exactly what level she is.

"Do people who buy paintings know who you are?"

After all, she was still unwilling, Lu Yao thought, if it was for her cousin's fame, the price would be nothing.

"I used my real name at the beginning, but my name is not unique, maybe I thought it was the same name, and then I put on a vest."

She doesn't like to post on Moments. If a friend forgets to make a note, or if she occasionally changes her screen name, someone will cautiously come over and ask her who she is.

Those who bought paintings added her as friends, so naturally they couldn't guess her identity.

"and then?"

"Didn't I be very busy for a while? At that time, I had to join the filming group, shoot commercials, and promote movies. I was really exhausted. Naturally, I didn't have time to do these things. When I returned to the set and went online, I realized that Someone came to me through my client, saying that a cultural center wanted to hold a calligraphy and painting exhibition, and they thought my works were very personal, so they invited me to participate.”

Ni Bingyan couldn't help laughing when talking about the scene at that time.

What an interesting thing!Some people think her work is great, but don't know who she is, so come and invite her!

"Then I agreed, and asked him if there was any theme for the exhibition, and he said that it would be Chinese painting. I took photos for him to choose, and he said that the small animals and various fruits I painted were particularly spiritual, so he chose two. , I thought it doesn’t matter even if it’s a liar, what if it’s true? They turned out to be very formal, and even sent someone to the Northeast to sign a contract with me and pick up the painting by the way.”

No one can say how much a work of art is worth. In order to reduce accidents, people are usually sent to pick it up in this way. Lu Yao was not surprised. She just looked at her and motioned her to continue.

"As a result, the man met me and found my identity very unexpected. He told me that he thought he had the same name and surname, but he didn't expect it was really me. Then he was a little embarrassed."

"Compared with Western paintings, Chinese paintings pay more attention to literati integrity. You will probably meet an old antique. I am afraid that your fame will make the art exhibition lose its purity, hahaha!"

Lu Yao knew what was going on as soon as she heard it.

"Fortunately, my two paintings have not yet been stamped. The uncle saw that I offered to wear a vest, and carved a stamp for me!"

What she calls wearing a vest is to give herself an nickname, such as layman, mountain man, and gentleman.

Lu Yao saw that she took out a small brocade box from the limited edition sachet, and took out a pink and tender Shoushan hibiscus stone seal from the brocade box, so she hurried over to have a look.

Ni Bingyan's vicious heart!

I can't hold back!

I saw that she first took out the seal, then took out a small book the size of a palm, and then took out a small box of ink pads, which she carefully printed on the dining table!
After printing, I took out another soft cloth and carefully wiped off the ink on it.

Lu Yao: "..."

She wanted to say, if I look directly, I can see what is engraved, but she is immediately fascinated by the seal on the paper.

"This chapter is really well carved!"

The four characters of "Yayuan Layman" are beautiful and strong, with a strong personal style, and it can be seen that the person who engraved it has a lot of skills.

"I think so too! Haha! When the uncle was leaving, he praised me for being a pure person. I think he is that kind of person! He is generous when he meets someone who suits his taste! In fact, I am a big layman! My favorite It’s a small amount of money~”

"Put it away! Eat early and leave early, I can't wait!"

Now Lu Yao's mind is full of her cousin's paintings, she just wants to finish her meal quickly and go to the art exhibition to take a closer look, seeing that she is still playing with that seal, she hastily urged her.

Ni Bingyan carefully put the seal back into the small brocade box, put the brocade box into the middle layer of the bag, and made sure the zipper was closed before starting to eat.

The two had a simple meal. Because they didn't have much luggage, they didn't go to the hotel, so they took a taxi directly to the exhibition hall.

When I got there, I realized that the number of visitors to the art exhibition is limited. If you want to enter, you must first get a free ticket with your ID card.

After receiving the tickets, the two looked at each other in dismay when they saw that it was the day after tomorrow.

"This art exhibition seems to be on fire!"

Ni Bingyan was wearing a mask, and her voice was a bit muffled.

"How about we find accommodation with the organizer?"

"Why don't we go to the Shanghai stock market to buy red dresses first?"

The two sisters spoke at the same time, a little embarrassed.

"I know it's a bit of a worldly thing to do, and you might not like it..."

"I know you made a special trip, not for the skirt."

The two explained at the same time.

After a while, the two couldn't help but smile at each other, and Ni Bingyan spoke again:
"There are quite a lot of tourist attractions here, why don't we find a place to play and come back the next morning?"

Fearing that her cousin would not understand her thoughts, Ni Bingyan explained it specially: "I only told you about this, not even my dad. Come back the day after tomorrow, what do you think?"

Ever since she started drawing skills, what Lu Yao hates the most these years is "Wow, Yaoyao, can you draw me a picture? You draw really well!", works that have been drawn after hours of hard work, others want to free them as soon as they open their mouths. To go, she often thought, if only no one knew that she could draw.

Things that she liked at first became distasteful because of being mixed with too many dislikes. For a while, she didn't even want to touch the paintbrush.

Cousin is in the entertainment industry, if others know that she still has this ability, there will definitely be more troubles, and it will be too pitiful if she can't even want something simple and loving.

Lu Yao immediately understood what she meant, lifted the strap of her backpack, and signaled her to lead the way.

The two sisters found a hotel to rest for a good night, went to the famous garden the next day, and arrived outside the exhibition hall early in the morning of the third day.

They came early, the exhibition hall had just opened, and when they entered, it was almost like a private room.

Each painting with its own characteristics, whether large or small, after being mounted, is replaced with a uniform frame, and hung on the white wall at random heights, making it dizzying for the eyes.

It can be seen that the organizers have prepared very carefully, and each picture has its own strengths.

This is the first time for Ni Bingyan to visit a traditional Chinese painting exhibition, and she feels that this kind of intuitive stimulation can promote the improvement of her painting skills more than the pale communication between fellow fans in the hobby group.

Originally, I wanted to find her paintings as soon as I came in, but I couldn't pull my eyes out from the first one.

It was as if there was a force pushing her in the dark, making her read one by one in the order of visits.

A layman may only feel after watching the excitement, that I like this one, but I don’t like that one.

Experts can see where each painting is good.

It turns out that the composition can still be like this, the color matching can still be like this, and it turns out that a few strokes can have such an artistic conception...

The advanced skills mastered by the painters who are trained in professional classes are not something she can learn in ordinary times; the experience that the senior painters have figured out by themselves is also unknown to her; the whimsy of others is also different from hers...

When you come out to see the world, you will realize how talented the world is. Keeping humble suddenly becomes very easy.

What she doesn't have is in these works.

As long as you put your heart into it, it seems that you are passing through their works, accepting their guidance, and making friends with them.

This feeling is novel and wonderful.

For her, this art exhibition is no less than a gluttonous feast!
In this world, there are so many more interesting things than making money.

Now that she has achieved financial freedom, she feels that she can have more pursuits.

That's what makes it interesting, isn't it?
So after the exhibition, the organizer contacted her, saying that a collector liked her work and was willing to pay 12 yuan for one of the pictures of a cute chicken pecking rice. Ni Bingyan thought about it all night and agreed.

She decided to try to be a painter.

In the traditional Chinese painting circle, "Yayuan Layman" must have a name!
　Today, I am busy coding the Chinese New Year's plus changes, so I don't bother to break the chapters, so I just combined them into one.By the way, what are the reserved dishes for your family’s New Year’s Eve dinner?My family must eat braised rooster and braised fish in previous years.This year our family changed to a new way of celebrating the New Year. Since childhood, we have cooked one or two big dishes every day. There is not much innovation in the method. We only pay attention to the ingredients and eat something that we usually eat less, such as goose and sheep. , turtles and the like, so that I can eat them all every day, and make fresh ones the next day, so I don’t feel tired when cooking, and I don’t feel full when I eat, and I don’t need to eat leftovers for the second meal. Our family feels that It's perfect, and I've decided to do it all the time.My husband told me today that they go out to play every day when they are full, they are so tired!In order to let me have a quiet coding environment, they really worked hard.If it wasn't for the Chinese New Year, I really wanted to beat him up.
