What is the artist's family like?
Chen Xing could vaguely glimpse one or two of them in his residence in Paris.
This house has been fully rented to Chen Xing and Hedwig, and both of them are now not short of rent. Hedwig now likes to live in Chen Xing's room, even when he is away, as long as he sleeps in Chen Xing's room She will feel at ease in bed and won't have nightmares.
The third floor was completely converted into a studio.
This separates the living area from the work area.
Hedwig basically spends the day painting in her room, and Chen Xing sometimes studies some technical issues in photography or painting. When the two of them do what they like, they are both the kind of people who completely forget about the outside world for a few hours.
So the two of them were often hungry.
Today Chen Xing went out to see the professor. He also had something to eat at Professor Nobel's house and bought some bread on the way back.
As soon as you walk in, the stove is so clean that it shines brightly.
Don't ask, I'm probably addicted to painting again.
Hedwig is currently painting a work that has been customized by others. The price is as high as 8,000 euros. This is certainly not comparable to Chen Xing's photos, but it is very rare for a young painter like Hedwig. If successful, the gallery will probably increase the price accordingly. The selling price of her works.
He knocked on the door on the third floor and then walked in.
Hedwig didn't seem to hear Chen Xing enter the room. She was still humming and drawing, wearing her little apron that was dyed in many colors.
"Forgot to eat again?" Chen Xing put the bread on the table by the window and asked.
She looked up and saw Chen Xing, then moved her eyes to the bread Chen Xing bought, and said with an ouch, "I forgot! What time is it, have you eaten it?"
"Didn't I tell you to go to my teacher's house today? I've already eaten, and I guessed that you forgot to eat again, so I'll bring you some back."
Hedwig put down her brush and touched her stomach... she was indeed very hungry.
So he stood up and kissed Chen Xing with a smile, and opened the bread that Chen Xing bought. This bread was still filled with butter, and it tasted very refreshing after being chilled. She has always liked desserts, and it was something Chen Xing brought back to her. When she tastes it, she will show a very happy expression without realizing it.
Chen Xing sighed and said, "What will you do when I'm not at home?"
"I know how to cook. I just forgot when I got busy. Of course I will take care of myself. Come on, you can eat too."
"You can eat, you can eat."
"Hmm... By the way, if your teacher said nothing, will you stay in Paris this year?"
Hedwig has some expectations. If Chen Xing stays in Paris to study, at least Chen Xing will not go too far this year. Hedwig sometimes felt heartbroken when she thought about the time wasted in the first half of the year. It would have been better if the relationship had been confirmed earlier.
Chen Xing found a place to sit down in the messy room and said, "No, I graduated."
"graduate?"
"Yes, I graduated." Chen Xing also showed a puzzled expression, but said quickly, "The teacher said that after I won the award at the Arles Photography Festival, there was nothing left to teach me in practice. , the basic things are all in the first, second and third grade, so I was allowed to graduate.”
"So fast!"
Chen Xing, Sange, and Hedwig basically came to Paris at the same time. They are about the same age. Hedwig is a little older than Chen Xing, but only a little. She is only a sophomore now, and Chen Xing is 20 Graduated from Paris Haute Couture at the age of 18?
"It's pretty fast, I didn't expect it."
He knew it would be a good thing for him, as it would give him more time to travel. Moreover, after graduating from Paris High School, it will be very simple for him to apply for a visa in any other country. It can even be said that the visa officer will let Chen Xing go when he sees his school.
Traveling is what Chen Xing likes to do.
But with Hedwig it's a bit...
Many travelers are young. It is common to see backpackers traveling around the world even if they are around 18 years old, but there are very few backpackers after 35 years old.
Chen Xing doesn’t know if marriage is the grave of love, but it must be the grave of travelers. He stopped talking and reached out to touch Hedwig's back to express his affection. She seemed to have forgotten the question and answer just now and ate the bread brought back by Chen Xing.
But Hedwig suddenly raised her head: "Your documentary is about to be broadcast!"
"Huh? Oh, it seems like..."
………………
Canal+ is a French local website. It is mainly a French pay TV station and one of the earliest pay TV stations in Europe. It has many TV programs, including news movies, sports, documentaries, etc.
But Chen Xing and his colleagues' works were not broadcast on TV stations and could only be played on their website.
Fortunately, because the purchase price is cheap and the quality is good, this website chose to give this one-episode documentary a lot of publicity.
As soon as I opened this website, on the cover of the homepage, there was a silhouette photo of a person holding a little leopard in the sun with his hands. The name was in French "Call of the Wilderness"
When Chen Xing saw this cover, the memories of his past life began to attack him.
See this name again.
This was the name provided by the website. He said that the Great Migration was too vulgar and no one watched it. However, he always felt that this was something called the Call of the Wilderness, and it always had a bit of a meaning to the Call of the Wilderness - it was a hunting game, which was pretty good in Europe. It is well-known and many people in China are playing it.
Hedwig grabbed Chen Xing's hand and said, "Is this you? I can tell at a glance."
"Well..." Chen Xing made a sound of unknown meaning.
Before Hedwig could take a closer look, Chen Xing clicked in.
The picture was edited by Chen Xing. When it lights up from the dark night, it is the climax of the whole film. It is the perspective of Chen Xing using the time travel machine to travel among the beasts. It is clear and stable. Finally, the perspective gradually increases, and the producer appears. Chen Xing's voice also appeared in his name.
“The Serengeti savannah in eastern Africa is hosting the most special natural landscape in the world. Millions of wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras and antelopes form a massive procession, starting from the Serengeti in Tanzania. Go north from the Tire Conservation Area and end at the Maasai Mara National Park in Kenya..."
After finishing this documentary, Chen Xing watched a lot of documentaries in the next few days and wanted to learn more.
But this learning spirit only lasted for a few days.
The conclusion reached is that it is best to have a protagonist, such as the hunting lions as the protagonist, and use their eyes to humanize the great migration to tell the story. In this way, the drone video taken by Chen Xing also has a more perfect sense of substitution.
But after all, they are a few newcomers, and it is always awkward to do this kind of thing for the first time.
The shortcoming of this documentary is that there is no main plot, but the advantages are also very prominent, that is, the pictures are beautiful and the writing is excellent. Another thing that can be praised is that the dubbing sounds very good. This is not Chen Xing's boasting, the fresh comments below also think so.
Somehow, foreign video websites have very few websites that can directly post barrages like Bizhan.
Only by using a plug-in can you turn the comments below into barrages and float them on top of the video, but they are comments after all, and they don’t have the flavor of barrages.
Chen Xing and Hedwig sat together and watched the entire film. Chen Xing asked: "What do you think?"
"It's very beautiful. The way you catch the little leopard is so cool!"
That's one of the highlights of the whole film.
Hedwig watched the documentary immersedly. Watching online videos is a way for her to understand the world. What’s more, this is a documentary shot by her boyfriend, and she also participated in the dubbing... To be honest, I heard Chen Xing in the documentary With the deep voice, 80% of her physical strength disappeared.
Scroll down to read the comments.
Chen Xing went in at the right time to watch, and was among the first batch of viewers. There are only more than 300 comments below. Chen Xing estimates that there are not many people who have watched it. Many of them came down to leave messages to complain about it. Or express your other moods.
'If the full score is ten points, I would give him nine points. The work of three young people pursuing their dreams deserves recognition. '
'How did you take the first scene? Can drones be this flexible now? '
'Who's that guy in the lead?' Chen... looks so familiar. '
'I think so too'
'Thank you blogger! '
'I was lucky enough to go to the Serengeti savannah twice, and I felt the shock immersed in it, just like what this documentary said. '
'Canal+ finally produced a qualified documentary, and as a fan, I have cried. '
Huh? No one scolded us?
Are you being tolerant to us because we are newcomers?
Chen Xing wanted to continue reading, but the phone rang.
I clicked on it and saw that it was a video invitation from Ford. Leifbold was also there. He had grown a mustache after not seeing him for a long time, and he looked more like an uninhibited artist.
"Chen! Leifbold! Have you seen the video? We succeeded! The number of views is so high!"
Chen Xing nodded to Hedwig, walked to the balcony and sat down to make a phone call. Hearing this, he said, "How high is it?"
"You didn't see it? You didn't see it?" Ford was surprised.
Leifbold also scratched his head in surprise and asked: "Is it the video you made in Africa? Has it been broadcast?"
"Hey! It's us, me, you, and Chen, the three of us. Didn't we introduce it in the video? This is the joint work of the three of us."
"Sorry, I've been too busy lately. How was the response to the video?"
Ford cleared his throat and said: "Now... let me see, it has been played over 50,000 times, and there are thousands of comments. Netizens think very well of our video. Let me read the comments for you..."
"Okay, okay! I'll go take a look when I have time." Someone from Leifbold called his name and he hurriedly logged off.
Chen Xing also read the comments. After reading a few of them, he said, "Well, it looks good. I was actually reading it just now."
"We succeeded, right?"
"You can't tell anything right now. Let's wait until tomorrow morning. I think you may not be able to sleep well today." Chen Xing said with a smile.
"Damn it! Someone scolded us, what did you say? How can we sleep tonight?"
"Then take your time and watch, I still have to go to bed."
"Hey, wait a minute..."
Chen Xing hangs up the video.
It seems that Ford has a strong desire to make another documentary. Do you want to invest some money yourself?
In Chen Xing's view, Ford is more suitable to be a photographer or organizer. His editing ability is not even a bit worse than Chen Xing's, and his copywriting is average. It may be a bit of a loss to invest in this way, but his enthusiasm is high. So good, headache.
Oh, a friend with no sense of boundaries!
Let’s talk about it then and listen to Leifbold’s opinion.
Chen Xing himself wouldn't go anyway. Now that he was free from the constraints of his studies, he couldn't wait to go out and wander around, so he wouldn't waste his time traveling by finding a job for himself during this period.
Since arriving in Paris at the beginning of the year, Chen Xing has not experienced such a feeling of freedom for a long time.
What Chen Xing is most concerned about this year is the publication of travel notes.
But the publisher won’t publish the book until New Year’s Day, which is still more than two months away.
The next day, Chen Xing went to the Hasselblad branch in Paris and got the contact information of their head office and an invitation letter - actually it was a relatively delicate card with only commemorative significance. When he went there, he got off the plane. Just call them directly and someone will take him to Hasselblad.
But as a souvenir, this card is also very nice.
[Dear Mr. Chen Xing, we at Hasselblad are a professional camera manufacturer with advanced technology and equipment, as well as an excellent team. We hope to share our experience and technology with you, and we also look forward to your valuable comments and suggestions on our products.
We would be very grateful if you could come and visit us. Please call us before arriving so we can prepare for you. 】
This is the French text printed on the back.
The front is the most classic photo taken by Chen Xing with Hasselblad, that is the Buddha's light.
Was this photo bought by Hasselblad?
Otherwise, given the copyright environment in Europe, it would be impossible for a company of this size to print non-copyrighted photos on anything.
Chen Xing has always believed in Seth about the photos. Although he didn't like Asian art before, during his contact with Chen Xing, he gradually came to know who the chief executive of Perenna Gallery was. well-done.
Make Chen Xing's wallet bulging.
I stayed with Hedwig at home for a few days. Their school started early, and now they occasionally have to go out to attend classes during the day. Chen Xing and his friends didn't start their Paris high fashion classes until October 15th, so they had nearly four months to play during the summer vacation.
Professor Nobel has already submitted the application for early graduation for Chen Xing. Chen Xing can just come over and apply for it now.
There are no changes to the school.
Old schools in Europe are like this. Let alone a few months, it is estimated that there will not be any new buildings in ten years.
As soon as he entered the school, he was surrounded by a group of students.
There are only a few hundred students in Paris High School, and those with better personalities have basically completed all the majors in the school after one semester, not to mention a celebrity like Chen Xing who was transferred to the last semester of the third grade as soon as he entered. Everyone knows this student in the photography class.
With this kind of fame, I even won one of the biggest awards in the photography industry during the summer vacation, and now I am graduating early.
Chen Xing is now simply a legend in Paris high fashion.
