Chapter 67: Just got off the plane

The boss was really happy to hear Chen Xiao's words, and handed over the menu in his hand.

Chen Xiao took a look, and he hadn't eaten all of them.

"Do you have any recommendations, such as your specialty!"

"Then I recommend you try this baked snail and grilled lamb chops. The boss flipped two pages on the menu.

"OK, I'm going to bake the snails and grill the lamb chops, huh...... Add foie gras, then another salad, then another soup, well, that's all. ”

"Are you sure?"

"Yes boss, I haven't eaten for a day, so don't worry. ”

“OK。 ”

Chen Xiao did not forget to record a small video while waiting, and then uploaded it to his Weibo.

Accompanying text: "I am in France, I just got off the plane, and of course I can't miss the local food when I come to France, but unfortunately I just came here to receive the award, and I can only say that all the regrets will be the foreshadowing of future surprises. ”

He was sitting outside the restaurant, and a small video just happened to shoot the European-style restaurant.

I wanted to say that I had just woken up.,But I suddenly remembered the stalk of the previous life.,And then I sent it out with a bad taste.。

"People in France, just got off the plane? Is this a new way of pretending?"

"It's a pity that I'm just here to receive the award?

"Purchasing agent, little brother?"

"People in the underworld, just crossed the Nai He Bridge, but unfortunately I can't taste a bowl of Meng Po soup, I can only say that all regrets will be the foreshadowing of future surprises, there are many people in the tomb, hidden. ”

"People on Mars, just got off the spacecraft, but unfortunately the air is a little not fresh, it can only be said that all regrets will be the foreshadowing of future surprises, there are many aliens, hidden. ”

"People in the cornfield, just got off the tractor ,......"

At first, everyone was still commenting seriously, but I didn't know which floor to start on, so I directly brushed up the formation neatly.

Chen Xiao was dumbfounded, this session of netizens is too powerful.

It's just a lot of talent.

Not only can you understand the essence of it, but you can also draw inferences, which is simply breathtaking.

His meal slowly began to serve, and the owner gave him goat cheese.

"This can be spread on top of cheese and is usually served as a starter on our side, so you can try it. ”

"Oh, thank you~"

Chen Xiao tried it, and there was a smell of sheep, which was not suitable for his taste, but he could eat it.

He tasted the snail again, and his eyes widened.

"Boss, this is good, delicious!"

"Haha. The owner walked into the store with a smile.

Chen Xiao couldn't help but insert another snail into his mouth, hmm...... Fragrant.

The texture is like chicken, but it's more chewy, and I don't know how the boss made it, so it's very flavorful.

Chen Xiao felt that he had fallen in love with this dish.

He wanted to order another one, but looking at the other food on the table, he still didn't order more.

He was a little disappointed when he ate goat's cheese, but every food after that exceeded his expectations and was very delicious.

Foie gras with some jam and bread, and then a lamb chop, Chen Xiao patted his already full stomach.

Looking at the soup in front of him, he still drank it hard.

He realized that he had overestimated his appetite and ordered too much.

"You should order one and eat one portion, and next time you must not order so much directly. ”

"But it should be mainly because the boss gave me a cheese and cheese, otherwise I ordered just the right amount. ”

Chen Xiao successfully pushed the reason to the boss.

He left the restaurant slowly, only to feel full of energy and vitality.

Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, Chen Xiao hurried up and took the bus to Angxi.

I searched the Annecy Animation Festival on the Internet, and all of them were highly praised on the Internet, and I also searched for other shortlisted animation works in China.

He took a look, and it turned out to be all well-made 3D animated shorts.

These animations look at the people and animals in them, just like real people, and the animals are also very cute, which definitely costs a lot.

And what about Chen Xiao's animation?

Not to mention the 2D used.,The style of painting is also surprisingly simple.,A character can basically be drawn with a few strokes.,There's no detail.。

It can be said that among the shortlisted works in China, only his is the cheapest.

However, the animation award is not all based on production, otherwise his work will not be shortlisted.

He also saw a suggestion about attending the Annecy Animation Festival.

How much paper?

He thought about it, and he really should bring a little.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Chen Xiao?"

A passenger in the front row turned his head to look at Chen Xiao and asked.

"Huh?"

Chen Xiao looked at the passenger in front of him curiously, this person did not ask in English, but in Chinese.

He had noticed that the person in front of him had turned his head to look at him several times, but he didn't expect to really know him.

"You are?"

"It's really Mr. Chen Xiao, I'm a little face blind, I looked at you like it before, but I'm afraid of recognizing the wrong person. ”

Chen Xiao nodded, he didn't expect that there were really people who knew him in France.

Before, he posted on Weibo, saying that there were many people eating and he hid.

In this way, it was as if everyone around him knew him, but in fact he was pretending, and he did not think that anyone in France would know him.

But now there are people who recognize him.

But when he thought about where he was going, he suddenly had some idea.

He's going to Annecy now, and there's no reason for the Annecy Animation Festival that the locals don't know, so it's not surprising that they just saw his work.

But being able to understand the author himself also shows that this person likes this animation very much.

"I'm Chen Xiao, have you seen my animation?"

"Ahh ”

Even know that he made "Cat and Mouse"?

"Thanks for the compliment. ”

"No thanks, I like your "Cat's Rhapsody" very much, and I have practiced it specifically, but my piano talent is average, and I may not be able to practice it in a few months, oh...... By the way, how did you get to Annecy?"

"I'm coming to the animation festival?"

Chen Xiao felt that something was wrong, it seemed that there was a little error between this person and what he thought.

"Isn't "Cat and Mouse" just out for a long time?

"Uh...... It's not "Cat and Mouse", I want to ask, have you ever been to Huaxia?"

"yes, I've just been back in France for a few days, oh yes, I haven't introduced myself yet, you can call me Frank, a painter. ”

"Painter?"

"yes, I'm now contracted to paint landscapes under an art foundation. ”

Although Frank didn't reveal any information, Chen Xiao still heard that his painting level was good.

In this world, there are basically two kinds of capable painters in Europe and the United States, one is family-style and the other is foundation-style.

Family-style, are some deep families, rich and capable, the ancient gallery is set in the family's old house, passed down from generation to generation.

The way the foundation works is that once they recognize a painter, they sign a contract, package it, acquire their work, and promote it academically.

But to be recognized, there are also many conditions, even very strict.

First, there must be international awards.

Second, do museums and galleries have collections of your work?

Third, are there any international collectors who are willing to collect your works?

So are there any painters other than these two who are very famous?

Yes!

But there are very few, and it can be said that most of them are working towards the Foundation again, but there is not one in a hundred who can join.
