181. Don't be Teacher Chen, and don't be Givenchy
"Here, Li'an has been creating all this time, and I can't pick you up."
In the alley at the entrance of the courtyard, Bai Qing led Cheng Shufen to the door of the studio, pushed open the door and invited Cheng Shufen in.
Cheng Shufen followed Bai Qing's footsteps into the courtyard, and just wanted to ask Chen Li'an what work he was creating this time, but he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
The moment the cold wind blew, Cheng Shufen seemed to see a monstrous wave coming from the ground like lava from a volcanic eruption, swallowing this quaint courtyard.
Cheng Shufen walked along the path specially set aside, and the light spots refracted by the afternoon sun on the stained glass, mixed with red silk threads, seemed to engulf herself.
At this moment, Cheng Shufen didn't know how to describe her mood, she had seen a lot of artworks, but she had never been so shocked.
Whether it is oil painting or sculpture, the impression is slowly experienced, but the installation art is so direct and shocking, and the impact from vision to body and mind is so strong.
Cheng Shufen subconsciously grabbed the bag in her hand, which contained a plan that she had planned for many days, but in the face of such a shocking scene, she didn't want to take it out.
Such a work of art and such an artist should not enter the entertainment industry, and his plans are not worthy of such great works at all.
Chen Li'an, who was adjusting the angle of the glass in the yard, saw Cheng Shufen, stood up and took off the gloves in his hand, threw them aside and walked over and said, "Sister Shufen, I'm sorry, I couldn't pick you up." ”
Cheng Shufen came back to her senses, looked at Chen Li'an with a complicated face, sighed and said, "Maybe I shouldn't come." ”
"What is this talking about?" Chen Li'an smiled and said to Cheng Shufen: "It's too cold outside, let's go in and talk." ”
Cheng Shufen nodded subconsciously and followed Chen Li'an into the house.
Bai Qing also walked in and took the initiative to ask, "Sister Cheng, do you drink tea or coffee?" ”
"Everything." Cheng Shufen replied with some distraction, looked at the drawings on the table, and couldn't help but reach out and pick up one and look at it.
This is the design draft of the work outside, Chen Li'an has revised the details back and forth many times, and I don't know how many versions of the design draft have been changed.
Chen Li'an stood next to him, took the hot tea handed over by Bai Qing and said thank you, then turned his head to look at Cheng Shufen and said, "Sister Shufen, the conditions here are a little simple, and I will give you the wind at night." ”
Cheng Shufen glanced up at Chen Li'an when she heard this, and then glanced around the room, where there were many oil paintings, some unfinished sculptures, and a lot of dots of paint on the white wall, like starlight splattered when inspiration erupted.
"You're not shabby here." Cheng Shufen thought of the red stream outside, and couldn't help but say: "This courtyard is now worth at least 10 million!" ”
Hearing Cheng Shufen's words, Bai Qing was stunned for a moment, I only spent hundreds of thousands, plus the materials for those installation arts, it was less than a million.
"It's not a courtyard house anymore, it's a work of art!" Cheng Shufen said with emotion: "We are in a work of art, how can we say that it is simple. ”
Hearing Cheng Shufen's words, Bai Qing's eyebrows raised slightly, and it is not art at all to measure art in terms of money!
The value of art itself is not something that can be measured by simple numbers, it is an invisible force and an idea that will remain in the long river of time, rather than something that simple numbers can replace.
Bai Qing put a cup of tea in front of Cheng Shufen, turned his head to Chen Li'an and said, "You talk, I'm going to work outside." ”
Chen Li'an glanced at Bai Qing, and waited for her to go out before saying to Cheng Shufen: "It's not finished yet, the weather is getting colder and colder, so it must be completed as soon as possible, Sister Shufen, don't mind." ”
Cheng Shufen shook her head, looked at Chen Li'an with a teacup and said, "I understand, compared to what you are doing now, what I want to say is not important at all." ”
"Why is Sister Shufen so polite all of a sudden." Chen Li'an is too familiar with his works in the courtyard every day, and he doesn't have the same strong shock as Chen Shufen, so I can't understand why she is suddenly like this.
Cheng Shufen looked at the paint still stained on Chen Li'an's clothes, and suddenly couldn't help but say: "Li'an, you still have to concentrate on making art, I'm really worried that after we cooperate, it will affect the birth of a great artist." ”
Chen Li'an paused for a moment when he drank tea, and he was a little awkward to describe himself as great to Cheng Shufen, he was still far from those two words.
"Sister Shufen, don't be so excited, let's talk about your plan first." Chen Li'an skipped the topic just now and said.
Cheng Shufen looked at Chen Li'an, finally sighed, took out a document from her bag and handed it to Chen Li'an, and then said with some embarrassment: "I feel that my plan is too cheesy." ”
Chen Li'an took the plan and smiled and said, "I'll take a look at it first." ”
The content of the plan is mainly divided into two parts, one is the plan for the actors, which guarantees that Chen Li'an will receive three plays in a year, and the first play after signing the contract has been attached.
A film based on the Japanese writer Ryunosuke Akutagawa, with the role of the male number one.
Chen Li'an skipped this part after a brief glance, and flipped to the plan at the back, wanting to see how Cheng Shufen planned to market herself as an artist.
The content of this part is a bit different from Chen Li'an's imagination, but it is very interesting, and it is an angle that Chen Li'an did not think of before.
The biggest embodiment of art in the commercial field is design, and everything that can be seen in life is inseparable from design.
Tables, chairs and benches are industrial design, clothes are clothing design, advertising is graphic design, and houses are architectural design.
Design is inseparable from the category of art, and the design industry is the most perfect combination of art and business.
Cheng Shufen's plan is to establish herself as an artist and designer, commercialize her designs to the greatest extent, and then complement them through the fame brought by the actors.
In Cheng Shufen's planning, Chen Li'an can do clothing design, jewelry and other luxury designs, etc., forming a unique brand, just like those top luxury in the West.
I have to say that Cheng Shufen's idea is very interesting, but Chen Li'an feels a little strange when he looks at it, how is this a bit like Teacher Chen. Although his surname is Chen, this Chen is not Chen.
No, it's not Mr. Chen, it's Givenchy's infatuated man of the century!
Chen Li'an felt that he was still a little more in tune with Teacher Chen's aura.
Cheng Shufen looked at Chen Li'an's expression becoming more and more strange, and felt that she was too commercial and cheesy, how could she use this kind of thing to cooperate with artists.
"Li'an, I know my plan is not good enough, so this cooperation will be forgotten." Cheng Shufen felt that she was in a work of art, and using such a cheesy thing was really insulting to the word art.
Hearing Cheng Shufen's words, Chen Li'an raised his head strangely and looked at her and said, "I think it's not bad, art should be like this, in the bits and pieces of life." ”
"I'll just say it, like this" Cheng Shufen was suddenly stunned, looked at Chen Li'an's serious expression and asked, "You said you think it's not bad?" ”
Chen Li'an put down the plan and said: "Yes, I think it's very good, but it's not perfect enough, can I go back and add a few more?" ”
Cheng Shufen saw that Chen Li'an didn't look like he was joking, and immediately nodded and said, "Of course you can!" Add a few! ”
Before coming, Cheng Shufen also prepared a lot of rhetoric and determined her bottom line and attitude, but after being baptized by Chen Li'an's works, she instantly forgot about those principles.
It's art! What's wrong with compromising for the sake of art!!
Cheng Shufen's plan is indeed very good, although it is too commercial, but it is not completely without merit, Chen Li'an still sees a lot of shining points in this plan.
However, there are still many things that need to be revised in the specific plan, and Chen Li'an has to go back and think about it, such as how to integrate his own installation art and performance art.
Cooperating with Cheng Shufen is to make it more convenient to spend other people's money to make their own art, if you only do commercial design, Chen Li'an is too lazy to do it.
Seeing Chen Li'an's recognition of his plan so much, Cheng Shufen had a very strange feeling in her heart, a sense of identity, and a kind of confidant. No, no.
Cheng Shufen couldn't describe the feeling after thinking about it for a long time, but her heart was really full of emotion.
When I returned to the hotel that night and called Zhang Guorong, I kept praising Chen Li'an for how powerful he was, and his artistic attainments were as high as a dozen floors.
Zhang Guorong, who was far away in Xiangjiang, didn't know what Cheng Shufen had experienced, and wondered if Chen Li'an had drugged Cheng Shufen and brainwashed her.
After hanging up Cheng Shufen's phone, Zhang Guorong called Chen Li'an and asked directly: "What did you do to Shufen!" ”
Chen Li'an, who was researching a new camera, was stunned when he heard Zhang Guorong's question, he didn't do anything to Cheng Shufen, don't say such strange things, okay!
Zhang Guorong on the other end of the phone snorted and said, "Shufen called me at night, she kept praising you, and let me have time to go to the capital to see your new works." ”
"Isn't it normal to praise me?" Chen Li'an put down the lens in his hand and looked at the other camera on the table, which was given to him by Wang Zuxian at that time, so he couldn't help but ask, "How is Zuxian doing?" Did you pass the exam? ”
"You won't call and ask, it's been a long time since you came to Xiangjiang to see Zuxian." Zhang Guorong couldn't help but feel worthless for Wang Zuxian on the phone desk.
Why did you fall in love with this scumbag! Not at all!
Chen Li'an leaned back in his chair, looked at the camera, thought for a while and said, "I'll go to see her next month, but don't tell her, I'm going to surprise her." ”
"I'm surprised, I'm afraid I'm scared." Zhang Guorong stabbed angrily, and couldn't help but say: "If you propose, it will be the biggest surprise!" ”
The corners of Chen Li'an's mouth twitched, afraid that it was a fright for himself.
Propose? It's impossible in this life!
You will be alone and widowed for the rest of your life! When I got old, I went to a nursing home, and when I couldn't walk, I cremated myself and raised a fart!
If you die, you don't go to the grave! Not to mention entering the grave of love while you are alive!
After talking nonsense with Zhang Guorong a few more words, Chen Li'an hung up the phone, not wanting to listen to his nagging.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Li'an lowered his head and continued to work on the new camera, and in a few days he would go to the studio to take pictures of the work.
With the passage of time, the artworks in the yard will also be lost by the torrent of time, so Chen Li'an wants to freeze it forever with photos.
