36. Chapter 36
The busy days passed in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, a short holiday in May, Pei Chen's solo exhibition in Hangzhou finally opened.
This is a 10-day photo exhibition with the theme of "environmental protection", the first three days of the opening require ticket admission, all income will be donated to the environmental protection fund, and the next few days are all free to the public, anyone can enter.
To put it bluntly, Pei Chen's solo exhibition is not a commercial act, but just wants to convey values and concepts.
However, his team is commercial, especially Lausanne, which has been building momentum for this photo exhibition in major media outlets two months in advance, and has invited many heavyweights to help on the opening day.
Such a photography exhibition, which has invested a high amount of publicity but is not for profit, has aroused the curiosity and attention of many people.
Due to the fact that during the long holiday, the studio received several weddings and pies, so Qin Kaixin was not able to go to the scene to support Pei Chen at the first time, but there were still people in her circle of friends, that is, Guo Xiaojing and Miyazawa couple.
Miyazawa, as Pei Chen's cousin and also the opening guest of his solo exhibition, took his wife to see the entire solo exhibition,
Both husband and wife spoke highly of this solo exhibition, especially Guo Xiaojing, who was born as a reporter, and posted several texts in the circle of friends to lament Pei Chen's work, describing it as a "spiritual cleansing", "thought-provoking", "shocking" and so on.
Since photography is forbidden in solo exhibitions, such descriptive words can't help but make people curious about what kind of solo exhibition this is, so on the opening day, Guo Xiaojing's wedding group, which had been silent for a long time, chatted and chatted, and some people suggested that everyone should form a group to see this solo exhibition.
The mention of yƬ immediately resonated, and it happened that Pei Chen was also in the group, so everyone discussed that they would simply go to see a solo exhibition next Saturday, climb the North Peak, contact feelings, and strengthen their bodies by the way.
As a member of the wedding group, Qin Kaixin was naturally asked, but she had been busy and didn't pay attention to the information, and when she was busy looking back, Pei Chen had already answered for her.
Pei Chen: Okay, I'll go over with @StrawberryPuff on Saturday.
Seeing this sentence, Qin Kaixin's face had a black line, and then looked at the chat content behind, and sure enough, the group exploded.
All asked when they were together, and said that on the day of the wedding, they felt that they had a problem, etc., the most exaggerated was Guo Xiaojing, asking when they would get married and when would she let her hug her little nephew?
"......" Qin Kaixin felt speechless, and when the two met in the evening, she protested to Pei Chen, "Why did you say it?" ā
Pei Chen asked her rhetorically: "Do you want to keep it secret?" ā
Qin Kaixin was stopped by this question, in fact, she didn't deliberately want to keep it secret, like the previous class reunion, she generously admitted that she had a boyfriend. But when she asked her to take the initiative to introduce Pei Chen to others, she couldn't open her mouth, and she didn't even say anything to her family.
For this relationship, she always had an uneasy feeling in her heart, perhaps because the previous seven years of separation were too long, so she felt that it was better to stabilize it first, and then slowly tell others.
"I just want to keep a low profile......" Qin Kaixin lowered his head and said humbly, a little afraid to look at Pei Chen.
"Xiao Xin." Pei Chen suddenly called her.
"Huh?" She looked up.
Pei Chen's eyes flashed, as if he wanted to say something, but he still didn't say anything after all, touched her head, and said gently: "You're tired, go back and rest early." ā
The two said goodnight to each other at the door, and each went home, Qin Kaixin, who was lying on the bed, couldn't sleep again, thinking about himself and Pei Chen, he always felt depressed in his heart, obviously the relationship between the two was quite smooth, nothing happened, but why did he have an indescribable feeling in his heart?
Originally, when she encountered this kind of problem, she could still talk to "black humor", but now, she ......
Forget it, she's going to keep stuffy.
In the next week, the venue of the baking classroom was negotiated, and the rent was 300,000 yuan a Chinese New Year's Eve, which is a great value for such a location and such a venue!
Qin Kaixin and Xue Man signed the lease contract together, and after signing it, they ran several decoration companies together, made a preliminary decoration agreement, and went to more than 100,000 yuan, as for other baking equipment, they haven't decided yet, but Qin Kaixin has a little plan in his heart, and he can't get any more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan.
Before the baking classroom opened, almost all of Qin Kaixin's savings had been exhausted, and then she had to consider temporarily closing the studio, reducing unnecessary expenses, and concentrating on preparing the baking classroom.
How to live in the future, to be honest, she really has no bottom in her heart.
But isn't that what life is all about? Not reluctant, not broken, not standing, since she has decided to let go, then she can only move forward with one heart and work hard!
After the busy, it's the weekend.
Pei Chen's solo exhibition is only a few days away, but there is still an endless stream of people who come to watch it, and many people have even come to see it once before, so take advantage of the weekend to reminisce again.
Qin Kaixin was a little surprised by such a scene, in her impression, in a high-profile place like a solo exhibition, the people who came to see it were usually students, highly educated people, or photography enthusiasts. She didn't expect that there would be so many people in Pei Chen's solo exhibition, young and old, all kinds of people, and even the cleaning aunt stopped her work and stopped to watch in front of a work.
These are all Pei Chen's works taken in Tibet, when he braved the wind and snow, went to Tibet alone, Qin Kaixin thought that he would photograph the customs and customs of Tibet, in fact, his works show all the other side of Tibet.
This spotless holy place in people's impressions has caused great pollution in recent years due to the development of tourism and other industries.
In Shigatse, what was supposed to be a snow-white glacier has become yellow and black, unsightly; On the Qinghai-Tibet Highway, all kinds of heavy trucks emitted huge smoke, blackening the blue of the sky; In the Himalayas, garbage is discarded by mountaineers and trekkers.
The more beautiful the place, the more shocking it is after being polluted, Pei Chen's works have broken the inherent thoughts of many people, making everyone's mood become extremely heavy after reading it.
Qin Kaixin is no exception, but when others were watching the work wholeheartedly, she set her eyes on Pei Chen beside her.
"What's wrong?" Pei Chen asked.
"Can I ask you a question?"
"You ask."
Qin Kaixin: "Why did you become a photographer?" ā
"I just went abroad, and I saw a lot of different customs and customs abroad, and I thought you might like it, so I took a picture of it, thinking that I would send it to you when I got in touch. Later, the more I shot, the more I gradually liked this expression. ā
He said it very calmly, but Qin Kaixin was deeply shocked.
So, Pei Chen became a photographer, is it all because of her?
"That'...... What about those photos? She asked.
"It's all sent to your mailbox."
"What?" Qin Kaixin's eyes widened in surprise.
"Remember, the old one." Pei Chen said.
Qin Kaixin immediately remembered that there was a computer class in the first year of high school, and the teacher asked everyone to register for NetEase mailbox and send emails to each other, at that time, computers and the Internet were far less common than they are now, Qin Kaixin felt novel, and on a whim for a while, he sent emails to people in various ways, including Pei Chen.
Later, after she was fresh, she never logged in again, and even forgot the password.
"I don't need that email address for a long time!" Qin Kaixin said anxiously.
"I know that at first, I expected you to reply to the email, but then it slowly became a habit, every time I took a good photo, I would send it, thinking that one day maybe you would see it."
At this moment, the softest part of Qin Kaixin's heart was touched fiercely, his nose was sour, and he had the urge to cry.
It turned out that he changed his life for her.
It turned out that he had done so many things for her.
It turned out that all the roads he had traveled and the scenery he had seen had all been turned into a photograph and preserved, just to be left to her to fill the seven years of separation.
My heart was warm, and I was indescribably moved, and I couldn't help but stretch out my hand and hold Pei Chen's hand.
He was stunned and immediately grabbed her hand with his backhand.
The contact between hands transmitted each other's body temperature, although neither of them spoke at the moment, but they all secretly swore in their hearts: This time, they will never be separated again!
