Chapter 247 Inexplicable red(1/2)
Walking into this street again, there were fewer people sketching and painting on the bridge.
After all, it was getting dark, and the light was not as good as during the day. Many people had left, leaving only a few painters who were reluctant to leave, enduring hunger and completing the last bit of work at hand.
Han Qi passed by on the bridge and examined their level, mentally commenting on their strengths and weaknesses.
All pretty good.
Han Qi was a little surprised at their level. If a random painting was of this level, then they must have collected their own better works, and they would probably not be worse than the works of famous artists in the gallery.
Sure enough, there are excellent painters everywhere, the only difference is the chance of becoming famous.
It's a pity that all my painting tools are stored at home, and I have no chance to take them out to install them. Otherwise, I really could have painted here for a day and listened to the exclamations of the onlookers.
The painting at home should have been done, right? I should be able to finish the oil painting when I go back this time.
It's okay for a painter who has become famous to have only one exhibited work.
The painting given to Trieste was originally kept in her house in Bergen. After learning that Han Qi's second painting was sold for more than 10 million, she was so frightened that she quickly deposited the painting in a bank safe.
He almost died laughing when he told Han Qi.
But think about it, it would be a bit dangerous if others knew about it.
So if Trisette didn't nod her head about this painting, Han Qi wouldn't tell anyone about it.
Crossing this bridge is the Dublin City Hall, a very simple red brick house with three floors. There is a door with a colonnade outside, and there is a sign of the City Hall on the pillar.
After bypassing here, I saw the city attractions the waiter mentioned.
But the Dublin Castle here is not the ancient castle that Han Qi imagined. Instead, the structure is somewhat similar to the Chinese courtyard with two courtyards. However, the structure is a structure, and the appearance is still very castle-style.
After all, it is a building with a history of nearly 800 years. This means that ancient European buildings generally use stone, otherwise these houses would have collapsed 800 years ago.
But even so, the daily maintenance costs of this ancient building will not be low.
So when Han Qi knew that it was free for tourists to visit, it was strange. It was normal for a place like this to charge twenty pounds, right?
Han Qi said before that his structure is similar to a two-in-a-siheyuan, but the area needs to be enlarged several times.
When you enter, you can see a suspension bridge and an introduction to this place.
More than a hundred years ago, this was the hub and office space for the British administration of Ireland. Later, when Ireland became independent from the United Kingdom, it became a place for Ireland to hold important state affairs and receive foreign guests, which has a strong political significance.
In this case, it is free and there is a trace to follow.
After all, this is the testimony of their independence.
Modern people don’t understand much of history clearly, and this introduction also understates the word independence. But if you think about it carefully, how difficult it is to become independent from a powerful country and become a country with its own sovereignty.
.
When Han Qi came here, it was too late and he couldn't get in. He could only look at the high walls on all sides of the castle and the suspension bridge in front.
You can enter the Royal Church, and there are people lighting candles inside.
Seeing that someone had come in, and he was a foreigner, the priest nodded to Han Qi and motioned for him to visit casually.
Han Qi also smiled politely and wandered around minding his own business.
He doesn't believe in gods or Buddhas, so he usually doesn't worship at any church or temple.
In his heart, he didn't believe in their existence, so there was no need to be pretentious. When he came to such a place, Han Qi treated it as a tourist attraction and also learned about the characteristics of European architecture.
"Father, is this church as historic as the castle next to it?"
"A castle? Of course not, but it's also very old."
The priest speaks very slowly, but he feels very friendly inexplicably.
I don’t know if this is the off-season for tourism in Ireland, but few people are visiting the huge church. There are more local people. They sit on the chairs in the church with their heads lowered in thought, which makes Han Qi who is passing by wonder if they are.
Fell asleep.
Hey, it's time to eat.
Han Qi did not call them and sat on the bench in the church.
The bench is still relatively new, but it is definitely an old item from more than twenty years ago. However, it is made of solid materials, so it still feels stable when you sit down, and there is no sound at all.
Han Qi even heard the prayers of people around him.
Sitting there, the atmosphere is extremely quiet.
Han Qi found that his mind was spinning very fast at this time, and he suddenly had the desire to work... The work Han Qi mentioned was not writing code at work, but writing travel notes.
Travel journals are very profitable, very profitable. A travel journal written as a test case brought Han Qi millions in income in just one month.
But his passion for writing was completely inferior to singing, sculpting, and riding horses.
Maybe this is the difference between profession and talent. Profession gives you all the skills and then makes you fall in love with this profession in your memory, but talent will not give you any memory, everything depends on you.
Just like the language talent, Han Qi has taken the initiative to learn Norwegian so far.
Otherwise, with the speed at which he learns one language, he only needs to study seriously for a week or two before he can use another language to communicate with foreigners on a daily basis.
What is this, bursting with inspiration?
It’s true. Han Qi knew that some authors of online novels couldn’t code well at home and had to go to milk tea shops or coffee shops. The same should be true for this church. This kind of quiet environment with a bit of white noise is really
Very suitable for text work.
Went out to eat somewhere on the street.
Han Qi discovered that there are many bars in the UK and Ireland, which is different from Northern Europe. Their bars are very hidden, and you have to register when you go to the supermarket to buy alcohol. The control is very strict, but there is no control over drinking.
The UK is pretty good, not to the level of Ireland where you can get a pub in a few steps.
Did I come to the bar street?
Dublin Nine Eyes Bridge?
He suddenly discovered a hot pot restaurant and hurriedly walked in.
The occupancy rate in the restaurant is average, and there are only a few tables of customers in the huge hall. Perhaps Irish people also know that summer is not the weather for hot pot.
After entering, Han Qi found a seat by the window. A waiter who looked obviously foreign came up and asked, "Are you Chinese? Please order."
"Yes."
Take the menu.
The menu is available in three languages, Chinese, English and Irish.
Although Irish is the first official language of Ireland, only tourists who come to Ireland will know that the common language here is actually English, and only some people in remote places can only speak Irish.
The reason for this is probably because of the British invasion. Although they have worked hard to regain their country's traditional writing and language, it is of no use at present.
"Red oil pot bottom, beef, tripe, sturgeon, squid, fish balls, pork belly, luncheon meat..." After ordering and putting down the menu, Han Qi said to the foreigner, "That's it, you'll order more after you finish."
, are you Irish? Do you speak Mandarin?"
As he recorded it, he said: "Yes, sir, I am Irish, but I don't know Mandarin. Only our boss can."
If no special preparation is needed, then Chinese hot pot is very simple.
You only need to boil hot water, add the hot pot base ingredients, and then let the guests choose the food they want. Therefore, it is easy to open a hot pot restaurant abroad. If you really can't fry the base ingredients yourself, then just spend money to buy them.
How much does the base cost?
A meal here starts at at least 40 euros, and as long as one customer comes in and orders, everything is earned back.
Ten minutes later, Han Qi almost choked on the Coke.
"Why are they all my videos?"
Whether he is on Bilibili or visiting TikTok abroad, Han Qi watches the most things related to his several professions. Music is a big category, so the chance of seeing singing videos is also very high.
But he just saw three singing videos related to himself.
All three are videos of themselves singing outside a Hobson store. Two or three hours is enough to hold a concert. Some people just cut out the songs one by one and share them on TikTok, which can also attract fans.
This kind of behavior does not constitute infringement of song copyright by Han Qi, so he was quite proud when he saw the first video, thinking that he is still so awesome, no matter how deep the water in the European and American music circles is, I can still control it.
.
But if you keep brushing until something is wrong, it requires extremely high heat.
Opening the popularity list, I saw that two of my videos were on the list, ranked third and sixth. One of them was an 'original music' that I had just obtained.
I'm shaking with anger, this is my own song, you can forget about posting other songs, my song hasn't been officially released yet.
Han Qi was surprised and proud at first. When he saw that his song was also uploaded, he was really a little angry, but he was not thinking of his own interests, but of Wang Zheng.
Damn it, luckily Wang Zheng is busy with domestic affairs and has not paid attention to me for the time being, otherwise he would definitely be scolded.
Han Qi didn't care when others scolded him, or even hung up the phone, but Wang Zheng couldn't. He really helped him a lot. Before Han Qi opened this studio, he only took the income from his song manager to take charge of Han Qi's work.
Various personal things.
Why don't you call and explain?
Forget it, send me a WeChat message.
He edited a message of more than 100 words and sent it to Wang Zheng. At the end of the message, Han Qi said... I know it's my problem, but I just wrote the song and didn't think about it that much. You first
