In a teahouse in Yanjing, seven or eight middle-aged men were having a small meeting.
Of course, there is no need to be particular about where to hold a small gathering. Drinking tea and chatting in a teahouse is what cultural people should do.
There is a tablet on the table, which displays Chen Xing’s photo.
"Indeed, he was the one who disclosed what happened to Xiao Zhang before, and the quality of his creations is also very good, so he became popular in the circle for a while. Didn't Huawei hold a mobile phone photography event during this time? He also took it
Number one, well-known on the Internet."
Chen Xing previously had over 300,000 fans of Bilibili. Since the revelation that his work was plagiarized, the number has increased by 70,000 to 80,000, and the total has reached 420,000...but most of them were attracted by the French travel video that Chen Xing just released.
Came here.
"Well, I have talent. What do you think?"
"Too young?"
"We should also give young people a chance."
They are all board members of the Chinese Photography Association and are currently reviewing several emerging domestic photographers to see if they should be invited to join the association.
As for being too young?
The youngest person in the association is only 16 years old and is the only daughter of one of the directors here. If you can join, it would be too much to refuse others to join on the grounds that you are too young.
"What should we do about the matter between him and Zhang Richao?"
"Xiao Zhang now has no job and can't pay off his mortgage. Isn't that enough? Just invite him like this, and we won't force him to join us."
This leader felt that there should be some human touch in the association, and that old brothers who had been with the association for ten years should not be thrown away like garbage just because of such a trivial matter.
Then this society is too indifferent.
The Chinese Photography Association is not the only organization that noticed Chen Xing, there are also some people who discovered Chen Xing’s advantages.
Cui Jingxian, the content director of Bee Nest, accidentally discovered the travel notes written by Chen Xing on station b.
I was shocked for a moment!
It seems that such a good travel writer is also a somewhat famous photographer, but no one has noticed it before?
So I quickly got Chen Xing’s contact information through friends at station B and wanted to call him.
So many people want to find Chen Xing, but what is Chen Xing doing now?
He is playing games.
I'm a little thirsty, so I leave the room and open the refrigerator.
"Mom! Finished the orange juice!"
"What does it have to do with me after drinking? How old are you? When you stay at home, you only know how to play games and don't know how to help with housework. Your mother will be exhausted."
Chen Xing winced, took a bottle of Wong Lo Kat and returned to the room.
When I first came back, I wanted to do something but you didn't let me do it. Now that I don't want to do it, I start to say that I am lazy again. Alas, it is difficult at home.
Chen Xing switched the page on the computer, from the main game interface to WeChat.
He hasn't been playing games all the time. In the past few days, he found a programmer who used to learn mountain climbing together and asked them about building a photography website.
Because the functions Chen Xing wants are very simple, it is cheap. From the website to the design, a total of 6,000 Huaxia coins can be solved. Now that the website has been built by others for three days, Chen Xing is ready to accept it.
"Is the website ready?"
"Okay, log in and take a look."
Switching to the browser, Chen Xing clicked on a website in his favorites. Almost instantly, a simple gray page appeared.
The top center of the web page is g in English.
Below is a row of small English.
Translated into Chinese it means: travel, beauty, surreality, connection.
Each of these English words is clickable, but now they are all empty. There is only the English word "Contact". After clicking it, you can see Chen Xing's email address, but there is only the email address.
Later, Chen Xing plans to get an international phone number and put it up.
But not yet.
Hue Chen Xing was very satisfied and sent the balance to this person via WeChat.
"Happy brother! I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future."
Chen Xing sent a no problem emoticon.
Finally I have my own photography website.
Chen Xing first uploaded a few simple photos. In the travel section, he planned to put landscape works and architectural works. In the beauty category, he put portraits, and in the surreal category, he put the color series that he had not started shooting yet.
It is not directly classified into landscapes, buildings, and portraits because Chen Xing does not necessarily have to be placed according to this classification.
With photos, the page becomes more comfortable to read.
Chen Xing simply put up all the fine products he had saved.
In the future, the server will not have enough space, but at least it is enough now, and there will not be many high-quality photos.
"Turn off the corridor lights and put your schoolbags..."
Chen Xing picked up the phone and saw an unmarked number.
"Hello." Chen Xing picked it up and said.
"Hello, Mr. Chen Xing, we are from the Chinese Photography Association. Have you heard of us?"
"I've heard of it, what can I do?"
As for the association that Zhang belongs to, he had seen it before when he searched for this person's information.
"As long as you have heard of it, we are the largest unofficial photography association in China, organizing multiple photography exhibitions, photography competitions, photographer training, etc.
We have studied your resume and feel that you are very good and are the talents we need. This is the last recruitment of members this year and you have a quota. Can you come to Yanjing to go through the procedures before this year?"
Chen Xingxin said that he didn’t even say he wanted to join.
But I still subconsciously asked: "What procedure?"
"The procedures for joining a membership include signing, paying membership fees, etc. But don't worry, the membership fees are not expensive."
I don’t care whether it’s expensive or not.
I don’t even know you, okay!
It was a good thing that he didn't call. When he called, Chen Xing remembered Zhang Richao's incident and asked, "Then you checked my resume, did you know that I won the first prize at the Winter Photography Festival?"
"I know, it's precisely because you are abroad..."
"Wait a minute! I don't want to interrupt you, I haven't finished speaking yet. Now that you know that I won the award, do you know why I won the award? Then I would like to ask Mr. Zhang, who stole my work to participate in the competition, now
Are you still in your association?"
"This...I'm not very clear about this."
"Well, let's talk about this later. After all, I don't have time now. I'm celebrating the New Year at home and don't want to go out."
Chen Xing traveled to more places this year than in the previous twenty years combined. He is tired now and just wants to play games at home. After the New Year is over and his energy is restored, his parents are tired of him.
Find another chance to go out for a walk.
And you can’t walk for too long, after all, you still have to study.
"But Mr. Chen Xing, the time for our recruitment is uncertain. If you have a chance this time, you may not be able to join our association next time. Mr. Chen Xing, why don't you give it some thought and give me a call after you have thought it through?"
”
"Okay."
Chen Xing hung up the phone.
Just as I hung up, someone called again.
Why are there so many things going on today?
"Hello?"
"Hello, are you Mr. Chen?"
She is a woman with a beautiful voice!
Chen Xing's mood suddenly became less irritable than before, and he said softly: "Call me Chen Xing, who are you?"
"I am Cui Jingxian, the content director of Bee Nest. I must be older than you. You can call me Sister Cui or Manager Cui."
"Oh, hello, hello, I often use your software." Chen Xing said quickly.
He didn't lie. Whether at home or abroad, the experience of using Bee Nest is pretty good, especially when looking for restaurants abroad... However, there are also cases where the experience is worse, very few.
"Haha, that means our products are pretty good. Mr. Chen Xing, I'm calling you this time because I saw the French travel diary you updated in the news on station b. It's very well written.
We hope to transfer this travelogue to our honeycomb. And I also want to invite you to open a travel column on our website and become our contracted traveler."
When she searched for Chen Xing's information on the Internet, she also saw information that Chen Xing had won an award at the French Photography Festival.
He is a professional photographer and writes travel notes very well. Why don’t you sign the contract earlier and wait for others to discover you?
The competition among travel websites nowadays is so fierce. Ctrip, Tongcheng, Fliggy and Tuniu are either the first and second brothers in the industry, or they are desperately trying to catch up in the new era. If they sign up with Traveler, they will either not be short of money or not.
If not, just throw money away as hard as you can.
If they found out about Chen Xing’s high-quality stock, they probably wouldn’t be able to get the signing fee of several million.
"Contract Traveler?"
Chen Xing understands the creation of a column, but does a traveler also have to sign a contract?
"Yes, after you sign with us, your travel notes, photography works, etc. on our website will benefit to a certain extent as long as people click on them. We will give you priority if we have advertisements, and even travel for free."
Sounds good.
But Chen Xing is going to college.
So he said: "I'll think about it."
Cui Jingxian sounded a little anxious and said: "Among the major travel websites, our treatment may not be the best, but it is definitely the most lenient. There are also many channels abroad. If other websites contact you, please give us full consideration.
The advantages of a honeycomb."
"No other sites are calling me right now."
"In that case, we will send people to Sichuan Province to meet with you and discuss it in detail. This must be a mutually beneficial thing. We can win-win. Before that, I hope you will never agree to invitations from other websites."
It sounds sincere.
Chen Xing nodded and said: "Then let's meet and talk. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, how about you guys come back after the Chinese New Year?"
How dare Cui Jingxian go to see Chen Xing after the Chinese New Year? She wishes she was from Sichuan Province.
Originally, she only saw a travelogue posted by Chen Xing on station b. The writing style of this travelogue alone made her determined to invite Chen Xing to be a travel columnist on the website.
Then she also found out that Chen Xing is a very powerful photographer.
By the way, I saw Chen Xing’s photo.
Cui Jingxian hung up the phone and looked at the computer. On the screen was Chen Xing who was secretly photographed at the photography festival.
So handsome!
He is handsome, is a photographer, loves to travel, and writes well.
Is there anyone more suitable to be a professional traveler than this kind of person?
She stood up and shouted to her assistant: "Xiaofang, go and ask who in the department is from Sichuan Province, preferably from Tiancheng, Sichuan Province. Come on a business trip with me and take a vacation directly after you are done."
She wants to go to her boss and apply for a high signing fee.
Chen Xing is their honeycomb.
Must win!
…………
Chen Xing continues to beautify his website.
Take photos and send them to Moments.
"My personal photography website has been established. Welcome to appreciate and cooperate..."
Two minutes later, another call came.
I looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Zhou Peng calling.
"Zhou Peng?"
"It's me, are you okay? If nothing happens, go downstairs, go out to play, and bring your camera!"
Chen Xing opened the window and looked outside. Zhou Peng and several familiar friends were waving to the room where Chen Xing was.
He went downstairs with his camera and said hello: "Is everyone on holiday?"
"It's a holiday, it's a holiday. I haven't seen you for a long time. Why is Brother Xing getting more and more handsome? He doesn't give us a way to survive."
"Hello, brother Xing."
"Brother Zhou said that you are now a professional photographer. Is it true? Is that person you searched for on the Internet?"
The person who questioned was named He Huachuan, who was Chen Xing’s former younger brother.
But he questioned it just because he was the younger brother. He was too familiar. No matter what, his little brain couldn't believe that the person talking in a foreign language among a group of foreigners was his former eldest brother.
The eldest brother who is ignorant and has only 14 points in English.
He was also short, less than 1.7 meters tall. Chen Xing stepped forward and put his arms around his neck and said: "Everyone will move on, and what happened in the past has long passed. In my opinion, you are not doing well now."
Not bad."
He Huachuan did well in high school. He is now majoring in power engineering and dreams of building airplanes.
Chen Xing looked at Zhou Peng and said, "What do you want to do when you call us out?"
"I'm not the one who called you. Find He Min."
Chen Xing looked at the only girl.
She adjusted her glasses and said a little shyly: "I called them out. I thought the school was on holiday and we hadn't seen each other for a long time. Let's have a meal together or something."
There are seven people here.
Except for Zhou Peng, who I only became familiar with after entering a higher vocational school, the others are all friends who have known each other for ten years.
Logically speaking, He Min shouldn't be so shy. Not to mention that she has a boyfriend, and she and Chen Xing are neighbors and old classmates... But Chen Xing is so handsome now, and the way he dresses is completely different from the students like them. p>
In comparison, Chen Xing now looks like a noble prince in a novel, but he is still a country boy.
Chen Xing nodded when he heard this and said: "Okay, but you are all still in school. I'm going to treat you. As before, we'll figure out where to eat."
Zhou Peng said: "Wait a while before eating. I have something to ask you for help."
Even if He Min didn't organize this round today, he would still be looking for Chen Xing.
"I knew it, otherwise why would you want me to bring a camera? What do you want to do? Let's make it clear first, the camera is like my wife, I won't lend it out."
"I don't want to borrow it, I just need to guide me to take a photo, okay?"
