"Why aren't you okay? Why is it so long? Ji Fa snorted weakly.

Chen Li'an sped up his movements and replied perfunctorily: "Slow work makes careful work, macaroni must be cooked in a creamy soup until it is soft, you can bear with it a little longer." ”

"I feel like it's already soft." Ji Fa looked at Chen Li'an and couldn't help urging: "When will your cream soup be good." ”

"Be patient with food." Chen Li'an looked at the cream soup that was about to overflow, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "Okay, let's try it." ”

Ji Fa looked at the macaroni that had not yet been served, and couldn't help but stretch out his finger and dip it in the milky white soup, then put it in his mouth and tasted it.

"How's it taste?" Chen Li'an looked at Ji Fa who was holding his fingers and asked.

Ji Fa looked at Chen Li'an and said, "It's great, the milk flavor is very rich and not greasy, which is very different from ordinary cream soup." ”

Chen Li'an smiled proudly and said, "Of course, my skills are very good, and I may be able to become a chef in the future." ”

"Then I will taste it every day!" Ji Fa couldn't help but lick the corners of his mouth, and then urged Chen Li'an to put out the macaroni.

It seems that Ji Fa is really hungry, and she has a real appetite for the macaroni full of milky white soup, but Ji Fa is more interested in creamy soup, and she didn't move the macaroni at all, just drank all the soup.

Chen Li'an looked at the cream soup on the corner of Ji Fa's mouth, took out a piece of paper and wiped it off for her, and then said with satisfaction: "Why are you in such a hurry, and no one is robbing you." ”

Ji Fa licked the corners of his mouth, looked at Chen Li'an and asked, "Has Bai Qing ever drunk the cream soup you made?" ”

"No, she doesn't like it." Chen Li'an wiped his hands, leaned back on the sofa and said, "Are you full now?" I'm going back, and if I don't go back, Baiqing will have to sleep. ”

"It's twelve o'clock now, and I've just made creamy macaroni again, aren't you tired? Or else."

"Not tired! Don't dream! ”

"Get out, merciless man!"

Chen Li'an pouted, a greedy woman, she made her cream soup macaroni at a loss, and she still wanted to make an inch after drinking the cream soup!

After leaving Ji Fa's place, Chen Li'an went back and slept well, tonight is the award ceremony of the Art Biennale, and he must recuperate.

Your first trophy is about to be born tonight!

However, this year's art exhibition does not have much funding, and the award ceremony is a bit shabby, although the artwork is very valuable, but the art exhibition is not profitable.

Claire made this year's awards ceremony very chic, bringing together the works of many installation artists as an award ceremony.

It's really full of art, not commercial at all.

Chen Li'an's works are also among them, and at this time, he, Bai Qing and Ji Fa are standing in front of their works and listening to Claire's speech.

Claire's artistic concept is full of reflection and criticism, and she has great opinions on Western contemporary art, and her words on stage are also very direct, bluntly saying that many of the works participating in this art exhibition are not pure.

Chen Li'an listened to Claire's words, turned his head to Ji Fa and said, "Claire must not be liked by you art managers." ”

"Why do you say that?" Ji Fa paused for a moment to understand the meaning of Chen Li'an's words, and whispered: "Actually, we all love him to death, he is like a vane of contemporary art." ”

Chen Li'an: "Reverse operation? ”

Ji Fa said with a smile: "Yes, and the art market has been affected by the financial crisis in the past two years, and it is just the right time for him to reheat the works of classicism." ”

Chen Li'an's eyes were different when he looked at Claire after listening to it, this guy has always emphasized that business and politics should not be linked to art, but he probably didn't expect his remarks to become a weapon for these black-hearted managers to raise prices.

Alas. Merchants are the most cunning people in this world.

With Claire's tirade over, it was finally time for the awards, Chen Li'an was not too excited, the previous awards were all small awards, and they were dance or visual arts, and the awards would not appear until the end.

Chen Li'an looked at the artists who came to the stage to accept the awards, sincerely congratulated them on winning the awards, and also hoped that when they won the awards, they would also send their blessings and not be blushing.

When he was about to reach the final link, Ji Fa couldn't help but grab Chen Li'an's hand and asked, "If, I mean, if you don't win the award, will you be disappointed?" ”

Chen Li'an turned his head to glance at Ji Fa, then looked at Bai Qing and asked, "Will you be disappointed?" ”

Bai Qing shook his head indifferently and said: "No, the value of art is not in money, nor in these awards, it is just icing on the cake." ”

Hearing Bai Qing's words, Chen Li'an nodded with a smile, then looked at Ji Fa and said, "I think so too, but you don't have to worry, you will definitely be able to win the award this time." ”

"Why? How can you be so confident? Ji Fa was not sure that Chen Li'an would definitely win the award, and he was curious about where his confidence came from.

Chen Li'an smiled and said to Claire on the stage: "It was Claire who gave me confidence, and last time at the party he organized, he told me not to miss this award ceremony." ”

"What?!" Ji Fa screamed in surprise, and then he reacted and covered his mouth and asked in a low voice, "Did he really say that?" ”

"Of course, otherwise where do you think my faith comes from?" Chen Li'an replied, and then looked at Claire, who was holding a hand card on the stage and preparing to announce this Venice Art Biennale, and said to Ji Fa: "Okay, it's time to reveal the final answer, get ready to listen to my name." ”

Ji Fa immediately turned his head to look at Claire on the stage, waiting for the names of Chen Li'an and Bai Qing to come out of his mouth.

"Now it's time to reveal the final prize, and this is my favorite work in this art exhibition." Claire looked at the artists in the audience who were eager to show a little disdain, and then saw Chen Li'an and Bai Qing's indifferent appearances, and then said with a smile: "This group of works is from Chinese artists, their works combine tradition and modernity, add a lot of different colors to modern art, and use a very innovative way, and the final award-winning work is"

"Artists from China, Chen Li'an and Bai Qing! The winning work is "Gangnam - Sunrise on the Black and White Line"

After hearing the unveiling of the final award, everyone in the audience turned their eyes to Chen Li'an and Bai Qing's works, and watched the two people standing in the works offer their own applause.

Although I am very jealous and disappointed, everyone is an artist who wants to save face, and I can't expose it.

In the warm applause, Ji Fa excitedly took Chen Li'an and Bai Qing's hands and shouted loudly: "We have won the award!" Really won the award! ”

Chen Li'an and Bai Qing both smiled, looked at Ji Fa, who was happier than themselves, and couldn't help but pull her and said, "Let's go and receive the award together!" ”

Ji Fa was stunned for a moment, she didn't win any awards, but Chen Li'an and Ji Fa didn't give her a chance to think, so they pulled her onto the stage.

Claire looked at the three people who came up, and originally thought that there was only one trophy, whether to award the trophy to Chen Li'an or Bai Qing, but now it seems that she has a new answer.

After Chen Li'an and the three of them came to the stage, he and Bai Qing pushed Ji Fa to the front at the same time, and motioned Claire to award the trophy to Ji Fa.

Claire took the trophy from Miss Manners and said with a smile: "This is the first time I have presented the award to an art manager, although I don't like them, but I have to admit that their presence has promoted the development of art and helped many artists." ”

"Ji Fa, come and accept the award for your artists, and don't live up to their kindness and trust." Claire looked at Ji Fa, who was covering her mouth and her eyes were red, and walked over to put the trophy in front of her.

Ji Fa's heart was full of emotion, and he turned his head to look at Chen Li'an and Bai Qing at a loss, not knowing whether he wanted to take the trophy or not.

"Then the glory belongs to the three of us!" Chen Li'an said with a smile.

Bai Qing also looked at Ji Fa with encouragement on his face and nodded lightly at her.

Ji Fa looked at Chen Li'an and Bai Qing, tears were about to overflow out of his eyes uncontrollably, and he quickly raised his head and wiped the corners of his eyes, calmed down before lowering his head and looking at the trophy in Claire's hand.

"I" Ji Fa wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say a word, stretched out his hand to take the trophy handed over by Claire and said, "Thank you. Thank you"

After seeing the trophy being received, Chen Li'an and Bai Qingcai walked over and stood beside Ji Fa and said, "Thank you, Ji Fa, thank you for your dedication to us." ”

Ji Fa had a thousand words in his heart, and just as he wanted to speak, he was stopped by Chen Li'an reaching out.

Chen Li'an said with a smile: "Don't speak, you took the trophy, let me do the acceptance speech." ”

After making a joke, Chen Li'an whispered: "Don't cry, it's not beautiful." ”

Ji Fa looked at the smile on the corner of Chen Li'an's mouth, nodded vigorously, then took his and Bai Qing's hands, put the trophy in their hands and said, "I have already received my share of glory, and now I will return it to you." ”

After Ji Fa handed over the trophy to Chen Li'an and Bai Qing, he turned around and stepped down.

Liu Zhangming and Zhang Xiaogang, who were in the audience, watched such a touching scene, and their hearts were full of emotion, and in the end, Liu Zhangming only held back a sentence of bad scenery.

"Chen Li'an should really go into politics or business, this manager will definitely die in the future."

Zhang Xiaogang turned his head to look at Liu Zhangming, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull, he really didn't know how to complain about his friend and financier.

It's obviously a beautiful thing, why think so darkly! Those who do business are really full of hearts!

Chen Li'an and Bai Qing on the stage glanced at each other, looked at the trophy in their hands, and then said into the microphone at the same time: "We took the trophy, but art will stay here forever!" ”

After saying that, the two walked off the stage together despite the surprise of everyone in the audience, shouldn't they be thankful? Shouldn't you tell us about your own experience in making art?

You're really a maverick.

But it's artistic!

Sophie Marceau, who also came to the award ceremony to witness this scene, looked at the Golden Lion Award in Chen Li'an's hand, and a trace of envy flashed in her eyes.

I don't know if I envy Bai Qing or envy the Golden Lion Trophy, but it should be the latter, Bai Qing has nothing to envy, everyone is the same!

Sophie Marceau looked at the trophy in Chen Li'an's hand, walked up to Chen Li'an and said, "Give me your golden lion to touch."

"Now?" Chen Li'an said with some twist: "It's not good here, why don't you go back to the hotel later."

Sophie Marceau: "." Going back to the hotel is not something that can be solved by touching!
