Rebirth of top photographers

Chapter 106 Winter is extremely late this year
Eating is in the cafeteria of the institute.

The seats and meal counters here are no different from those in university cafeterias. The only difference may be that there is no need to swipe a meal card.

After ordering a few dishes, Chen Pingsheng took the plate, and Mr. Chen Mu took two bowls of rice. The two of them found a corner to eat.

Then Chen Pingsheng discovered that Mr. Chen Mu ate very quickly. Generally speaking, an old man of this age should eat slowly.But the old man always ate big mouthfuls, as if he was very hungry, just to fill his stomach quickly.

Even faster than a young man like him eats.

"Mr. Chen, do you usually eat so fast?" Chen Pingsheng couldn't help but ask.

Mr. Chen Mu was stunned for a moment, then slapped his forehead and said embarrassedly: "Oops, I forgot you were here, I'm sorry."

He smiled and continued: "I was thinking about the subject just now, so I didn't pay attention."

Mr. Chen Mu slowed down his movements as much as possible, picked up a piece of vegetables with chopsticks and put it in a bowl. He recalled: "When I was an educated youth in the countryside, it was really difficult to eat. After all, there was nothing in the village and I had to grow it myself. At that time, I had to grow my own food. Everyone was rushing to eat, so when my life got better, I just wanted to eat as much as possible. The speed of eating became faster and faster, which may be a compensatory mentality. But it’s good, so I have More time to do things.”

Chen Pingsheng nodded in agreement. It is difficult for people in this era to imagine how difficult the past years were.

I don’t know that eating enough is a difficult task for many people.

Take his own family as an example. In his parents' time, there were six or seven people in the family. Every meal had pickles and porridge, and eggs could only be eaten on birthdays.And I never dare to add too much oil when cooking. The children will fight for every little bit of oil.

Not to mention eating meat and rice, that is a very luxurious requirement.

Therefore, his elders are generally short in stature, and have developed the habit of never leaving food behind.

Later, living conditions gradually improved, and their family feasted on fish and meat every New Year, and would never stop until they cooked dozens of dishes.

Why?Because I’m really hungry and frightened in my bones, and I’m so greedy.

These are still people living in the city. If you move to the more difficult rural areas and countryside, you can imagine how difficult the situation would be at that time.

Therefore, what Mr. Chen Mu did did not surprise him.

There were gradually more people in the cafeteria, all of them older scientific researchers. Occasionally there were a few young people, but most of them walked quickly. After getting their meals, they ate while looking at their phones without saying a word.

Several old men who were familiar with Mr. Chen Mu passed by and said hello a few times, and also talked about some things about the project.Chen Pingsheng listened for a long time and found that there was no common sense in their mouths, only data and arguments about knowledge and experiments.

In this environment, he felt that his IQ had increased invisibly.

After finishing their meal, the two returned to the office.

There is one more person in the office this time, Li Jianghe, who is also the deputy director. He looks younger than Mr. Chen Mu, has black hair and is energetic.

After meeting Chen Pingsheng, he curiously asked Chen Mu: "Brother Chen, is this the photographer you hired?"

Mr. Chen Mu nodded: "Yes, Xiao Chen, we are from the same family."

"It seems that we are quite destined." Li Jianghe smiled and said to Chen Pingsheng: "Xiao Chen, you don't know, Brother Chen's family has urged him many times, saying that if he doesn't take the photo, he will leave by then. The TV stations don’t even know what photos to introduce.”

Although these words sounded offensive, Mr. Chen Mu was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "No, I don't want to take up national resources. But if I leave, I really don't know what to do in the mourning hall, so I will let you Xiao Chen will take two pictures for me, and I will let my wife choose when the time comes."

Maybe it's because the two old people are very old and have reached the age of knowing their destiny.Or maybe it's because they have higher spiritual pursuits that they treat death in such a relaxed tone, so relaxed that Chen Pingsheng mistakenly thought that life and death were not important.Probably they had talked about similar topics many times before, so they could take it lightly.Chen Pingsheng thought so.

"Xiao Chen, what camera are you using?" After chatting with Mr. Chen Mu, Li Jiang Herao suddenly walked up behind Chen Pingsheng with interest and watched him take pictures.

"Fei Ming medium format Z1, do you also do photography?" Chen Pingsheng talked to him while looking at the picture.

As for Mr. Chen Mu, he was already sitting in front of the computer and taking a nap.

"I have a Sony, and I go out to take pictures of the scenery during my vacation." Li Jianghe lowered his head to look at the camera and praised, "It is indeed professional. This camera has a nice screen."

"It's okay, mainly because it has better image quality and a lot of room for post-production adjustments." Chen Pingsheng explained why he chose this camera.

"Hey, let me see the photos you took of Brother Chen."

"Okay." Chen Pingsheng opened the photo album and asked Li Jianghe to look at it one by one.

Seeing Li Jianghe's serious look, he suddenly couldn't help but have random thoughts in his mind.For example, the next second the old man suddenly stood up, shouted for security, saying that he was suspected of filming secrets, and then asked the police to take him away.

If this kind of thing really happens, it will really mean that you will die before your birth.

Fortunately, Li Jianghe just kept praising him after reading it.

"Xiao Chen, these photos you took are really good! The light and shadow control is amazing." Li Jianghe praised a few words and then said, "How much does it cost to take a set of photos?"

"This depends on the specific situation."

"Hey, Xiao Chen, when are you free, I would like to invite you to my house to take a photo of my wife and me." Li Jianghe had a sudden idea and took Chen Pingsheng's hand with a smile.

"I should be free in the near future." Chen Pingsheng answered truthfully.

"That's great. I promised to take pictures with her before, but I never had a suitable opportunity. This is just the right time." Li Jianghe settled a worry and his face relaxed.

"No problem, let's add WeChat and call me whenever you need to shoot." Chen Pingsheng feels that his work luck during this period is really good, and he can get opportunities everywhere.

Although his earnings are definitely not as high as those from Huacai's cover, he can do whatever he wants if he doesn't get angry.

This is the most important thing for photographers.

"Okay." Li Jianghe took out his mobile phone, and the two of them exchanged WeChat messages.

"You go ahead and take pictures. I won't disturb you anymore." Seeing that his affairs were settled, Li Jianghe also sat back down and started working on the computer.

Chen Pingsheng walked to the window, stretched, listened to the faint sound of wind outside the window and the crisp sound of the keyboard in the room, and then looked at the blown leaves and bare branches, as well as the increasingly thick clothes in the yard. People, it feels like the chill of winter has finally arrived in this city.

Winter came extremely late this year.

Thinking like this, he took a sip of the scalding hot water, and his body was suddenly filled with warmth.
