Han Lin's studio is still some distance from the restaurant where he eats. However, he had already arranged to call the driver to pick him up.

Bai Ye and Cao Xiang got into a spacious nanny car and drove on the highway.

It's just that no one spoke. Perhaps Han Lin also felt that the atmosphere was a little dull, and he took the initiative to provoke the topic, "In the past few years, I have often come to the capital, so I have set up a studio here to expand my business." ”

"Bai Ye, you can also consider setting up a stronghold in the capital. ”

Han Lin said seriously: "I'm not saying that Zhonghai is bad, the main thing is that the capital is relatively rich in resources, and it is easier to receive some ...... Well, interesting orders. ”

"I understand that. ”

Bai Ye nodded, purely in terms of resources, Zhonghai is definitely no worse than the capital. But it must also be admitted that the capital is rich not only in resources, but also in ...... Policy.

For example, the collection of the centennial celebration is a product of policy.

If it weren't for Wang Jingzheng, who took him to attend the event, I'm afraid he would have received the news that it would have been a few days later.

That's enough time to do a lot of things.

"In the past two years, I have gradually reduced the creation of outdoor sculptures, and began to prefer indoor decorative carvings......

Han Lin continued: "It is not only personal villas, manors, and mansions, but also the interior sculpture design customization of major shopping malls and office buildings. ”

"In the beginning, I was asked by a friend to help me. However, after undertaking a few orders, I found that the prospects were promising. ”

Han Lin talked eloquently: "It's just that in the past, I paid more attention to the creation of urban sculptures and outdoor large-scale sculptures, but I ignored this aspect of the market. ”

"Uh-huh......"

Bai Ye echoed: "In the past, everyone thought that sculpture was not private enough, and it was generally only suitable for formal occasions or public occasions. ”

"But over the years, with the deepening of internationalization, everyone's concept has gradually undergone some changes, and they have begun to feel that sculpture is similar to decorations, and has begun to become commonplace. ”

Bai Ye said with a smile: "It's just that most sculptors don't realize this, but Master Han, you have a keen sense of smell and sense the gap in the market." Layout in advance, careful cultivation, there will definitely be a lot of harvest. ”

Sculptors are more practical than painters, and apart from the occasional few posturings, most of them do not shy away from making profits. After all, there is no market, no business, and if you don't take orders, there is no room for sculptors. This is a well-known reality that does not need to be disguised.

Bai Ye's straightforwardness also made Han Lin laugh heartily, "Haha, there must be gains, but it's not as much as you think, just get by." ”

"You are humble......"

Soon after, arriving at Han Lin's studio, Bai Ye was very sure that he was really humble. Han Lin's studio, located in a building. The space of five or six hundred square meters on the first floor was rented by him and turned into a studio.

In the bustling urban area of Beijing, where every inch of land is valuable, I don't know how much the rent for a year is, but it is expected to exceed one million.

I didn't see Bai Ye's studio, before I made money, I didn't dare to put it in Zhonghai City. To put it bluntly, it is the pressure to consider costs.

There is no doubt that Han Lin is not stressed, which means that he makes easy money.

In the studio, there were also several apprentices of Han Lin, who greeted him in advance, and was already in the living room, preparing hot tea, coffee, and sobering drinks.

"Thank you......"

Although Bai Ye was not drunk, he still took the drink, took a sip gently, a cool breath surged, and his head suddenly cleared up a little.

Han Lin's apprentice immediately walked out.

In the living room, there were only three people left.

Bai Ye put down his drink, smiled and said, "Master Han, there are no outsiders here, do you have anything to do with me?"

In fact, he was really curious and didn't understand what Han Lin was looking for him.

To be a friend, there is no friendship. On the contrary, if you want to say that there is a contradiction, there is really a little bit of it. Even if it is fair competition, if Han Lin fails in the competition, he will definitely lose his face. If a narrow-minded person holds a grudge because of this, it is not impossible.

All in all, there was no intersection, but it was invited.

That's telling.

In this regard, Han Lin also said directly: "Bai Ye, what do you think of the centennial celebration?"

"It's a good thing, the whole country rejoices, it only happens once in a hundred years, and it can't be too much to celebrate. For us artists, it is also the most rare opportunity in our lives. ”

Bai Ye said honestly: "If you miss it, you really miss it......"

Life is limited, and no one can live for another hundred years.

Han Lin thought deeply and nodded heavily, "You're right, whoever misses such a grand event and opportunity will regret it for the rest of his life." ”

"So ......"

Han Lin's eyes flickered, and he pondered for a moment before he said solemnly: "Bai Ye, maybe we can make a contract and create a work together." ”

"Huh?"

Bai Ye was stunned: "Master Han, what did you say?"

Since he said it, Han Lin also let go of his mentality, and replied with a smile: "Bai Ye, do you know why the cultural department called us together for a meeting?"

"Huh?"

Bai Ye blinked and said, "It's not convenient to inform everyone, but by the way, let everyone know the importance of this matter......

"That's just one of them. ”

Han Lin interrupted: "The real reason is that the relevant departments know that such a big task, a single artist, will definitely not be able to complete it." Therefore, people with experience and insight will definitely choose to unite with each other and work together. ”

Bai Ye's brows furrowed slightly, he felt that Han Lin's words might be the truth.

Otherwise, simply getting everyone to pay attention to it will definitely not need to go through a lot of trouble to bring everyone together. A simple notice, a phone call, I heard that in order to prepare for the centennial celebration, who dares not to do their best?

"Bai Ye, you're still young...... When I say young, I don't mean that you are shallow, but that you have little contact with the government and do not understand the thoughts of the officials. ”

Han Lin said eloquently: "The official is mobilizing the people, and even the prime minister has come out to stand on the platform, I'm afraid I won't be satisfied with a small fight." ”

"What do you mean......"

Bai Ye thought thoughtfully: "Those leaders, you want us to cooperate?"

"Not hope, but facilitation. ”

Han Lin's eyes shone with wisdom, "If you pay close attention just now, you can find that among the people involved, there are not only painters, calligraphers, sculptors, but also inheritors of various crafts. ”

"The official department, when everyone is called, it is impossible to simply announce the matter, and it also contains deep meanings. ”

Han Lin said firmly: "You also said just now, this is the joy of the whole country." The key is to be the same word, all of us are united and united...... A similar scene occurred at the beginning of the founding of the country a hundred years ago, and there is a precedent to follow......"
