From shooting in the morning to four o'clock in the afternoon, today's task is finally over.
Chen Xing went back to the hotel to rest.
A group of hotel staff gathered around, looking through the photos stored on the computer.
"How do you think this was filmed?"
"Yeah, we just had dinner, and now we're still hungry."
"It's like you can smell it."
In fact, under normal circumstances, people who look at the photos will only think that the food should be delicious.
But for those who work in Guangzhou restaurants, they are exposed to too many dishes in the photos. Some signature dishes are even ordered dozens of times a day, so after seeing the photos, their brains secrete a message that makes them I mistakenly thought I smelled that smell again.
Bu Yongfeng was lying on his chair without a seated figure at all. His activity today was equivalent to his activity in the previous month. After all, he was a master of a group of chefs and rarely cooked by himself.
But looking at the surprised waiters in front of them who were looking at the computer, Chef Bu still smiled like an aunt, feeling that today's hard work was well worth it.
He had a hunch that this menu would be more successful than before.
Over the years, he has never seen any photographer who can completely lock the soul of a dish into a photo like Chen Xing. That kind of spirituality and charm can be achieved by many real-life chefs. The dishes were not up to par.
After resting for a while, Chef Bu regained his strength, stood up and said to the waiter who was still looking at the photos: "I'm going back first. After reading this, remember to express your opinion in the work group, and then get off work early. Everyone has worked hard today. ”
"No hard work, no hard work!"
How hard have you worked today?
More than twenty waiters and several hotel management staff were well fed by Chef Bu and his apprentices. When I think about the day tomorrow, the waiters are so happy that they are all looking forward to digesting it quickly and making tomorrow come soon.
There is delicious food and it’s free. It’s really pie in the sky.
Two days flew by.
Chen Xing finished shooting all the dishes at three o'clock in the afternoon the next day.
The menu has been prepared for a long time. Now, by adding the names of the works photographed by Chen Xing one by one, the first version can be produced. When the first version is approved by the hotel manager, the previous menu can be replaced and this new one can be used.
This process takes about a week.
But it has nothing to do with Chen Xing.
With his full salary of RMB 28,888 and a red envelope of RMB 20,000 from Chef Bu, he boarded the plane to southern Yunnan again.
A red envelope worth 20,000 yuan.
The two thick stacks of hundred-dollar bills put the envelope under more pressure than it should have endured.
Zhou Peng was almost jealous to death.
Although they are brothers, they are still very jealous. I finally got 20,000 yuan from my mother to fund my daughter-in-law, but Chen Xing, who has always been poor, earned close to 50,000 yuan in two days.
It's like sitting high on a lemon mountain.
At the airport, Chen Xing played with the mirrorless camera he just bought.
The first thing I did after receiving my income in the afternoon was to search for nearby digital stores and buy my first camera.
A Sony a7m3, full-frame mirrorless camera.
In this era, if you want to buy a camera, there are only four choices: SLR camera, mirrorless camera, card camera and film camera.
Among them, film machines are used by industry leaders. It is said that using film will give photos a better texture, but now they are lagging behind the times, and few photographers who are new to the industry still insist on using film machines.
What can I say about SLRs? It feels like their status nowadays is gradually inferior to that of film cameras.
Mirrorless cameras are also called mirrorless cameras because they use an electronic viewfinder instead of the optical viewfinder of a SLR camera. Therefore, the body is thinner and lighter than a SLR camera, and with the advancement of technology, its functionality is no worse than that of a SLR camera.
Chen Xing feels that given the same performance, few people would abandon the lightness of a mirrorless camera and buy a heavy and thick SLR, right?
So he feels that the end of SLR is inevitable.
The card machine is even thinner and can be put directly into a pants pocket.
Compared with mirrorless single-lens cameras and SLR cameras, it has obvious performance disadvantages, so it is completely out of Chen Xing's consideration. It is estimated that if he has more money in the future, he may consider buying one to carry around with him, but forget it for now.
As for why Chen Xing bought a7m3 instead of something better.
Of course there is not enough money.
What other reasons?
Chen Xing studied the functions of the camera until he got on the plane.
Although he had knowledge about these cameras in his mind, he probably remembered that it was different from the real experience of using it. Chen Xing needed some time to compare the camera in his hand with the memory in his mind and become familiar with it.
After all, this is a camera that I will use for a long time, not for temporary use in a hotel.
Quan Jing glanced at it several times.
She really wanted Chen Xing to take some photos for her, but when she thought about how Chen Xing had earned tens of thousands by taking photos of vegetables in two days, she didn't want to take the initiative to talk to Chen Xing about taking photos of herself.
Zhou Peng didn't think too much and asked Chen Xing to take a few pictures.
After getting on the plane, the three of them sat in the same row. Zhou Peng quickly stretched out his hand and said, "Let me see what you made of me. Hurry up!"
Chen Xing found his photo and showed it to him.
In the picture, Zhou Peng is sitting in the Colonel Ken fast food restaurant at the airport, holding an ice-cold Coke in his hand, looking at the side with a smile on his face, with that kind of expression in love, even if there is no second person in the picture, you can still guess this person. Looking at his girlfriend.
"This looks good, I want to use it as a profile picture."
Chen Xing smiled and said, "I thought so too. I'll send it to you when I get back. Quan Jing, come and take a look at this."
Did a flip on camera.
The next photo is of Quan Jing. She has the same action as Zhou Peng in the previous photo. She is holding a Coke cup with both hands, smiling and talking to the people around her. Her eyes are like crescents, so that people outside the screen can feel her emotion. happy.
"Wow! This was taken of me!" Quan Jing was pleasantly surprised.
"Well, now you can take it back as a couple's avatar. Tsk, tsk, tsk, I promised not to eat your dog food, but I ended up eating it anyway."
If these two photos were posted online, it is estimated that many couples would change him into a couple profile picture.
Alone, it only makes people happy with the person in the photo, but when you look at the two together, they are completely sweet.
"Thank you!" Quan Jing said.
She loves it!
"Why are you so polite?"
After Chen Xing got the camera back from them, he didn't stop much during the two hours of flight. He kept taking pictures on the plane, sometimes taking pictures of small decorations on the plane, sometimes taking pictures of the passing stewardess.
Zhou Peng bumped Chen Xing's arm and whispered: "How is it? Pretty, isn't it?"
"pretty."
"When you come back, take a Sichuan Airlines flight. Then you will find that Sichuan Airlines is more beautiful. Although China Southern Airlines is not bad, it is still a little bit behind."
