Chapter 134 132. Chen Meiren Seeing the Dawn
The small courtyard is sunny, and occasionally a breeze blows, rustling the leaves.

In the bathroom of the east wing, there was the sound of splashing water and conversations.

"Turn around, you haven't touched the back yet." Chen Meiren patted Chen Li'an's generous shoulder lightly and said.

Chen Li'an turned his back to Chen Meiren, looking at the foam flowing along the water on the ground.

The aroma of the shower gel in the room is very strong, the rose scent is very good, with a romantic atmosphere.

"This shower gel is the commercial you shot last time, right?" Chen Li'an picked up the bottle on the shelf and asked.

Chen Meiren glanced sideways and said, "Yes, I think it's quite useful."

After Chen Li'an asked, he put down the shower gel, and grabbed Chen Meiren's foamy little hand with one hand.

"Be honest, how long did you rest this time?"

"One week, and I'm going to shoot another movie soon."

Chen Meiren's hands were full of shower gel foam, and she easily pulled it out from Chen Li'an's palm. She took the bath ball and began to rub and play with bubbles.

Chen Li'an turned around and looked at Chen Meiren and asked, "Is it the poor Yao drama again? With Ma Jintao?"

The bath ball full of foam in Chen Meiren's hand rubbed against Chen Li'an's collarbone. The white foam matched his sexy muscles, adding a different kind of temptation.

"I'm asking you something, what are you thinking about?" Chen Li'an said as he tapped Chen Meiren's little head.

Chen Meiren let out a cry of pain, put her fingers into the white foam and tapped Chen Li'an's chest, raised her head and asked, "Are you jealous?"

Chen Li'an coughed and said, "There's nothing to be jealous about."

Seeing the unnatural flash in Chen Li'an's eyes, the corner of Chen Meiren's mouth curled up into a smile, and she didn't ask any more questions. To save face for the man, she just put her arms around him and whispered: "It's not the Qiong Yao drama, it's the New Dragon Inn." , there is no intimate scene, even if there is, I will borrow the seat."

Chen Li'an didn't speak or explain, just tapped Chen Meiren lightly, but the ground was very slippery and Chen Meiren almost fell down.

"Yeah, slow down, it's so slippery, be careful to fall." Chen Meiren nervously put her arms around Chen Li'an's neck for fear that they would fall down.

Chen Li'an supported Chen Meiren firmly, put one hand around her waist and said, "Turn on the shower and rinse off the foam."

"It's all your fault. The ground is so slippery and it's not honest." Chen Meiren hit Chen Li'an angrily.

Chen Li'an looked at Chen Meiren's angry face, but took off the shower to wash away the foam, and the warm water immediately comforted Chen Meiren... He hummed twice and stopped talking.

During dinner, Chen Li'an looked at Chen Meiren's way of eating food, and asked, "Have you ever thought about starting your own company to make TV dramas?"

"Me?" Chen Meiren put down her chopsticks, thought for a while and said, "I'm inexperienced. It costs a lot of money to make a TV series. It's hard to make some money. What if I lose money?"

"Then you want to keep filming Qiong Yao dramas, what will you do in the future?" Chen Li'an said as he put an egg covered in tomato soup into his mouth.

Chen Meiren said with a little disappointment: "I originally wanted to transform, but the film industry is so difficult to enter. I have made two films so far."

Chen Li'an knew the reason for Chen Meiren's loss. Originally, she had a chance to play Gong Li's role, but unfortunately she didn't succeed in the end, but luckily she didn't.

Chen Li'an thought for a while and said: "If you want to transform, you can find scripts and save money by yourself. Now it doesn't cost much to make a movie. If you don't have money, tell me."

When it came to the question of money, Chen Meiren immediately asked enthusiastically: "Those paintings really sold for millions? This is more profitable than movies and TV shows."

"That's right, so if you see a good script, you can try it out. There are many directors who don't have the money to make movies." Chen Li'an replied with a hum.

Hearing Chen Li'an's words, Chen Meiren was also a little moved. After thinking for a while, she said, "Then I'll look around and talk to you if there is something suitable."

"Well, you can register an advertising company, and when the policy is relaxed in a few years, you can change it to a film and television company." Chen Li'an said casually.

Chen Meiren feels sweet in her heart now. Although she hasn't won Chen Li'an yet, a man who is willing to spend money for you has already recognized it from the bottom of her heart.

What's more, if you are willing to spend money for you after you get it, it means that the man has his place in his heart.

victory is in sight!

In fact, Chen Meiren felt that Chen Li'an just didn't want to go out and film with others. Although it was just her own feeling, Chen Meiren was willing to think so, which made her feel that she was very important to Chen Li'an.

After a while, Chen Meiren pretended not to care and asked, "You made so much money, didn't you go to see Gong Li give her a gift? After all, she was the one who organized the film festival for you back then."

Chen Li'an glanced at Chen Meiren, and said calmly, "No, I've been busy with filming these days, so I haven't met Sister Gong Li, let's talk about it next time we meet."

Hearing Chen Li'an's answer, the corners of Chen Meiren's mouth curled into a smug smile, Gong Li, Gong Li, you are being thrown away by me now!

"Then what's the name of the company?" Chen Meiren was suddenly full of motivation, and looked at Chen Li'an with great interest.

Chen Li'an put down the bowl and chopsticks and rubbed his stomach and said, "I don't know how to name names, just look at it, and I don't know how to do business, so you'll have to do it yourself in the future."

Naturally, Chen Meiren knew Chen Li'an's character, and if he was asked to start a company, he would probably lose money in three days, so she thought for a while and said, "How about Hong'an? No, your name should be in the front, called Lihong?"

Chen Li'an's eyelids twitched, feeling that the name was unlucky and meant something.

"No, this name is too ugly. It's better to call it Hong'an, er, Hong'an, the shore of the coast."

I'm sorry for the Hong'an base, let's use it first, it shouldn't delay Da Liu's novel writing.

"Hong'an. It feels like a name from the 70s, and you can't even recognize your name." Chen Meiren was a little disgusted, but she was very happy in her heart. Chen Li'an put her red in front.

"It's just a homonym, I think it's pretty good." Chen Li'an didn't care if his name could be read, it would be best if he didn't.

Seeing that Chen Li'an liked it quite a bit, Chen Meiren could only nod her head and said, "Okay, then use this name!"

After dinner, Chen Meiren took Chen Li'an to chat about the advertising company for a while, and then went to the bedroom to discuss ancient literature.

The main reason is that I have some doubts about several details in Jin Ping Mei, and I want to verify it myself...

Chen Li'an, who rarely rests for a few days, stayed at Chen Meiren's place for several days, and nothing else but to turn on the air conditioner for sleeping at night!
But this kind of rest didn't last, Chen Meiren rushed to filming again, Chen Li'an also had to busy with his own affairs, and had to meet Wang Xiaoshuai before going to Venice.

When the two who hadn't seen each other for a year met again, they were deeply moved. Wang Xiaoshuai looked at Chen Li'an like a monster, wondering what happened in this world.

I made an artist's film by myself, but I actually found an artist to act in it, which is exactly the same as my Virgo's winter and spring days.

Winter and Spring Days This movie also tells the story of an artist, and the protagonists are also two real painters. I didn't expect the second movie to do the same.

Wang Xiaoshuai looked at Chen Li'an while smoking a cigarette, and suddenly he didn't know how to talk. Should we talk about movies or art?
Looking at Wang Xiaoshuai who was silent for a while, Chen Li'an spoke first, and asked, "Who will go to the Venice crew this time?"

Wang Xiaoshuai looked up at Chen Li'an and said, "I don't have that much money, it's just me, you and Shu Qi."

"Isn't Ma Xiaoqing going?" Chen Li'an flicked the cigarette ash and asked.

He and Ma Xiaoqing haven't seen each other for a long time, so I don't know how this round-faced girl is doing now.

"She's busy filming and doesn't have time." Wang Xiaoshuai explained, but suddenly shut up when he wanted to say something.

After filming the extreme cold, Ma Xiaoqing ignored her. Wang Xiaoshuai knew why, but he didn't know how to ease the relationship.

Chen Li'an nodded, and then said: "This time I go to Venice, I don't have so much time to participate in the film festival, the main energy will be on the Art Biennale."

"I know, I heard from Shu Qi that the art biennale is more valuable than the film festival." Wang Xiaoshuai said with a hint of envy in his tone. He also studied art and knew that the Venice Art Biennale is more important than the film industry. The Cannes and Oscars here are much bigger.

Speaking of the Venice Biennale, Wang Xiaoshuai suddenly remembered that he still had an idea, so he tentatively asked: "Can I mainly promote your identity as an artist when promoting the film? This will make it easier to sell the film, and you may win the award." It will be bigger."

Chen Li'an is still well-known in the European art world, so Wang Xiaoshuai naturally wanted to borrow Chen Li'an's name.

"Okay." Chen Li'an nodded, then put out the cigarette butt and said, "Then say so, see you in Venice."

"Okay, see you in Venice." Wang Xiaoshuai stood up and said.

After Chen Li'an left from Wang Xiaoshuai, he called Bai Qing.

"Have you come back from your hometown? Don't be late when you go to Venice the day after tomorrow." Chen Li'an walked down the street and asked Bai Qing on the phone.

Bai Qing didn't seem to wake up yet, so he said in a daze, "I just came back yesterday, come and find me."

"Okay, I'll pass later." Chen Li'an hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Chen Li'an knows how to make money and knows how to invest and buy a house, and Bai Qing is no exception. After making so much money, he naturally wants to go back to his hometown to improve his living conditions.

Bai Qing's hometown is in a small city in Hui Province. The most famous pavilion there is from Ouyang Xiu's Drunkard Pavilion.

When Chen Li'an came to Bai Qing's house, she had already woken up and was sitting in the living room in a daze.

"Just woke up? How does it feel to go back to my hometown?" Chen Li'an asked after changing his shoes and putting the key on the porch.

Bai Qing turned his head to look at Chen Li'an and yawned and said, "Well, it's not like that, I didn't even dare to say that I made 300 million, but I only said that I made [-], and my dad kept asking me about it every day. .”

Chen Li'an smiled and said, "That's because I care about you, but isn't [-] too little? How much money did you leave for the family?"

"They have kept [-], and they are not short of money." Bai Qing pulled Chen Li'an over with a pillow in his arms, leaned on him and said, "There is nothing to spend money in a small city, [-] is enough, I will give it to them next time I go back. "

"What do your parents do?" Chen Li'an asked curiously. Hearing what Bai Qing said, the family conditions seemed to be okay. How could he not even be able to afford a canvas before.

Bai Qing leaned on Chen Li'an's lap and curled up like a cat. He closed his eyes and said, "My father is a policeman, and my mother owns a dry cleaner."

Chen Li'an said with some surprise: "Dry cleaning shop? The equipment is not cheap, and your family is really not short of money."

Bai Qing opened his eyes and explained with some embarrassment: "My mother didn't buy any equipment, so she bought a second-hand scrapped machine, which she said was dry cleaning, but was actually hand-washed."

Chen Li'an: "." Auntie really knows how to do business!

"My mother is very clever, but she doesn't have great wisdom." When Bai Qing talked about her mother, his tone was very flat, as if the relationship between mother and daughter was not very good.

Chen Li'an looked at her slightly frowned brows, smoothed it with his fingers and said, "We are all ordinary people, it's enough to be smart, but how did you live so poor before?"

"I don't have a job, and my family doesn't give me money. My mother wants to force me to go back." Bai Qing explained, then sat up, rubbed his stomach and said, "I haven't eaten yet, I'm hungry."

Seeing that Bai Qing didn't want to continue discussing his family, Chen Li'an stopped asking and asked, "Is there any food at home?"

"No."

"Then go out and eat."
