Rebirth of top photographers

Chapter 137 A call from the museum
"Bang." The room that had not been opened for a long time finally welcomed its owner tonight.

Chen Pingsheng, who flew back from Capital Film Magazine, threw his backpack on the sofa and immediately took a kettle to the kitchen to boil water.

There are no traces of the magpie on the branches outside the window. I don’t know where it flew to, leaving only a nest as a trace of its existence.

Maybe it will come back after spring next year.

Chen Pingsheng thought this, and he was not used to the lack of this little guy's screams.

But to be honest, he won't live in this house for too long. After all, people who are drifting away are very eager for home.

Since he will definitely have a lot of royalties in the near future, buying a house will become his first thought.

"Why does it feel so fast to buy a house?" He sighed, and then laughed. In today's era, young people buying a house on their own are as conspicuous as having a big brother in the 90s.

"Gulu!" The kettle boiled with steam, interrupting Chen Pingsheng's thinking.

He poured himself a glass of water and held it in his hands, feeling the warmth slowly extend from his palms to his whole body.

"Who played the song Dongfeng Po on the pipa..." At this time, the phone suddenly rang.

During this period, Chen Pingsheng has been receiving different calls, some congratulating him, some seeking cooperation, and some wanting to meet. They asked him what he was doing on the phone, but he couldn't tell what he wanted to do.

As a result, he already wanted to change his mobile phone number.

So Chen Pingsheng did not answer the phone immediately, but looked at the call.After discovering that it was a local mobile phone number in South China and not a sales number, he slowly picked up the call.

"Hello."

"Hello, is this Chen Pingsheng, Teacher Chen?" There was a man's voice on the other end of the phone. He sounded about 40 years old.

"Hello, what's the matter?" Chen Pingsheng took a sip of water and asked.

"I am a staff member of the South China Museum of Natural History. I recently have a curatorial job and I would like the help of a professional photographer. Do you have time recently?"

"Curator?" Although Chen Pingsheng felt like a mirror, he still had to act out his doubts.

"Yes, I can't explain it on the phone. Tomorrow our deputy curator will go to the South China Photography Association. Do you think you have time to meet?"

"Okay, yes."

"Okay, let's talk tomorrow when we meet."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Pingsheng continued to clean up the house busy at home, and then he received another call from Liu Yizhao not long after.

"Hello, President Liu?" He mopped the floor while holding his cell phone.
"Teacher Chen, don't bother me." Unexpectedly, Liu Yizhao's tone was serious and full of respect.

Chen Pingsheng stopped mopping the floor: "Huh?"

"On behalf of the South China Photography Association, I would like to thank you all my life." After Liu Yizhao finished speaking, his tone returned to normal: "You have really helped our association a lot by winning this award."

"Oh, I was shocked. Teacher Liu, please don't speak like you just did." Chen Pingsheng felt that although he had won the award, he would not be treated so politely by Liu Yizhao.

"Haha, just kidding you. And I really have to thank you. We have received a lot of applications to join the association these days, and there are even some photographers that we have not negotiated with before." Liu Yizhao paused for a moment and said with a smile: " Life, come to the association tomorrow, except for the registration time, you haven't been here yet."

"Okay, just in time, someone from the South China Museum of Natural History just called me and said they would invite me to be the curator. Did you know?" Chen Pingsheng continued to mop the floor.

"Yes, they will come to the association tomorrow, but I don't know what they will do specifically. Let's talk in person."

"Ah."

"By the way, one more thing. Do you remember the treatment of the association members we talked about at that time?"

"You are talking about the exhibition."

"Hehe, yes, your "Crow" must be touring the country. Isn't that just right!" Liu Yizhao told his true purpose.

The two of them had communicated when they joined the association before. If Chen Pingsheng's works meet the exhibition requirements, the association will jointly hold a touring exhibition with Feimu Art Museum, and the ticket revenue will be divided into [-] cents.Four individuals, five art museums, and one photography association.

And if the work wins an award, there will also be a cash reward.

But at that time, he didn't expect that Chen Pingsheng would win the Best Picture Series of the Year in one fell swoop!
As soon as this award was announced, all explicit and implicit rules were immediately broken. After all, if this work is exhibited at an exhibition, it is bound to be a hit, so there is no reason to let it go without making money!
So the purpose of looking for Chen Pingsheng this time was precisely these two points.

Even Liu Yizhao was a little worried, because it was not only Feimu Art Museum that could hold a nationwide touring exhibition. If Feimu could not show the sincerity to impress Chen Pingsheng, then other art museums would not be vegetarian.

Those who are near water and towers get the moon first. This saying is not easy to apply when it comes to interests.

"Well, I have really been thinking about it recently. I originally planned to wait for the domestic publication before the exhibition, but after chatting with the publisher, I found that the fastest publication date is four or five months away." Chen Pingsheng had not done so before. With this in mind, he realized that it would be difficult to publish his work quickly after he discussed the publishing process with Gai Tuowen in detail.

Because it is difficult to get the version number now and it is also slow to issue.

Even if it takes two to three months at the earliest, plus the printing time and channel communication, publishing is more difficult than he imagined.

Of course, the revised text also mentioned another method, which is to publish it abroad first and then introduce it domestically, which will be faster.

However, no matter what, the exhibition must be faster than the publication, because if the delay is too long, the effect of the exhibition will be greatly reduced after the news of winning the competition dissipates from the public's mind.Therefore, Chen Pingsheng plans to negotiate with the art museum as soon as possible and complete the preliminary preparations for the exhibition within a month.

Liu Yizhao also agreed with him and said: "The people from Feimu are also here. They will be at the association tomorrow afternoon. You guys have a good chat. If you have any questions, please contact the association and we will definitely help you."

The association now unanimously believes that every effort must be made to win over Chen Pingsheng, and he must not be allowed to leave the association.

Youth is capital, and there is no doubt that Chen Pingsheng has the best capital now.

"Okay, then I'll go there tomorrow." Looking at it this way, many things need to be communicated in the association, which can be solved at once tomorrow.

Then the two chatted for a while about Gesai's experiences before hanging up the phone.

Chen Pingsheng looked at the home that had been tidied up, and then looked at the fitness coupons on the system interface, and suddenly felt a little itchy in his heart.

It has to be said that fitness is addictive, especially after watching your muscle contours become bigger and more obvious, you want to achieve your goals as soon as possible.

Of course, moderate fitness attracts the opposite sex, and excessive fitness attracts the same sex.Chen Pingsheng does not intend to train himself to be a testosterone warrior like James. He hopes to show others a smooth body similar to Eddie Peng.

He went to practice as soon as he thought of it. Chen Pingsheng picked up his backpack, packed his clothes and headed to the gym without saying a word.

On the way, he opened his own global version of "Shadow Circle".

He downloaded this two days ago and opened it at Shah's suggestion, because the gallery has already started preparing to start the world tour of "The Crow" while the popularity of Gesai is still there.So of course Chen Pingsheng himself must have some popularity.

At least the fame brought by Gesai must be realized.

Therefore, Chen Pingsheng has been updating these days, and the photos are still the same ones he took before.

But it is much better than when he first started in China, because as soon as he entered the global version of "Film Circle", he received official certification, and Gesai's official account and Hauser & Wirth Gallery also introduced him.

Hauser & Wirth's account also posted a photo.

Inside is a photo of Chen Pingsheng and Shah, standing in the gallery holding a printed cover of "The Crow".The gallery highlighted his works and Gesai's comments, and also highlighted the news that he has signed a contract with Chen Pingsheng.

After the news was posted, many friends and celebrities in the photography industry liked the post.

For example, Ryan, James, Hawke, Mr. Erickson and the winners of major awards.

As soon as people who follow Ge Sai in the film industry saw the winner of the best album of the year, they immediately flooded Chen Pingsheng's backstage with follow-up messages.

In just one week, his number of fans has increased to 11.

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Chen Pingsheng repaid everyone with constant photo updates and communicated with fans from time to time.It has to be said that this kind of communication is indeed a shortcut to improve his English level, so that he has become more and more proficient in the use of grammar.

While on the road, Chen Pingsheng uploaded the new issue's photos to the global version of "Shadow Circle" and then replied to some fans' comments.

At this time, Wei Seya suddenly sent him a message.

"Photographer Chen, are you busy? (Mao Mao's head expression)"

"No, I'm going to work out. Star Wei, aren't you busy?"

Wei Seya sent a photo of waiting on the set. You can see her lying on a chair with a thick coat on her face: "It's so boring. I didn't expect to wait so long for filming!"

"Then you go inside and wait."

"No, this director likes actors to wait on set. My agent specifically told me to show it (cat crying expression)."

"Tsk, great international directors have some quirks." Chen Pingsheng consoled him, "You'll probably become a movie star by the time you finish filming."

"I just want to sing and dance, why should I act!" Wei Seya complained.

"Singers who can't act are not good actors." Chen Pingsheng joked, "Maybe your manager wants you to develop in an all-round way."

Singing and acting, the boundaries in the entertainment industry are no longer as clear-cut as they were more than ten years ago.

Of course, I am getting more and more depressed.

Wei Seya sent a speechless emoticon of Maomao, and then stopped replying to messages.

Chen Pingsheng probably started her show.

Speaking of these friends around him, they are all on the right track. Lin Zishan recently took another job and went to Hainan.Wei Seya was filming, while Yabu went to LS, saying he wanted to make a documentary.

After Yu Xiang and Magic City were filming the cover of Film Magazine, Liao Hua has also started preparations for a new movie.

Although the New Year is getting closer and closer, the busyness is increasing day by day.

With the thought of blessing his friends, Chen Pingsheng walked towards the door of the gym through the cold wind.
