Chapter 307 Bought a piece of land in New York in three years
After two years of working in the industry, Chen Xing has finally reached the peak of the industry.
The big shots he met last night were more than the photographers he has seen in the past few years. And even though this is just a photography festival, many well-known directors came... referring to familiar movies.
Chen Xing’s face fruit is also very useful.
Network expansion 100
In life, there seems to be no change.
The food was still the same, the same person got up from the hotel bed alone, and what he saw in his eyes was still the same scenery as usual.
There is only a slight change in mentality.
The photography exhibition in Arles has come to an end, but the works cannot be cleaned up in one day, so for more than ten days after this, the city is still the home of photography enthusiasts, and tourists still come here non-stop.
Bianlai.
When traveling in France, apart from some surrounding places, Southern France is the only place worth visiting.
First of all, the southern part of France has a different architectural style than the central part. Secondly, the French here are relatively pure. They yearn for freedom and romance more than the Parisians. There are not many black people, gypsies and other people in the city.
Thief.
In addition to life, career changes have been huge.
As soon as the award ceremony ended yesterday, Seth had a conversation with himself about leaving the website he founded.
Although a bit crude, Chen Xing has sold a lot of photos through this website in the past two years. Starting yesterday, the photos on this website are not for sale, and it has become a gallery that displays Chen Xing's works.
place.
In the gallery, an ordinary photo of Chen Xing used to cost between 10,000 and 30,000.
To be honest, there are many photographers who can take this kind of photos in addition to color grading and composition. Their prices range from 1,000 to 5,000 euros. Chen Xing used to sell Chinese-style color grading, which is also the gallery
Previous publicity points.
But things are different now. The rise in fame after winning the award has caused the price of his works to rise several times.
And there is a price but no market.
Because yesterday morning, Chen Xing’s photos had already been snatched up.
After discussing with Chen Xing, Seth decided that he would only sell 88 photos a year. For good luck, he would release a batch in the gallery every month. At the same time, he would also find a batch of good ones from Chen Xing's inventory and release them.
Work as a sign in a gallery.
At this time, you don’t have to worry about Chinese style or not, as long as you take good photos, it’ll be fine.
Because at this time, there is no need to use the label assigned to him by this gallery. An international photographer’s prefix can solve all problems. It is estimated that there is no photographer or collector in the world who would not recognize the winners of the Arles Photography Festival.
.
I opened the small door behind the gallery and walked in. I greeted the staff and walked into the office area.
"Mr. Abbott." Chen Xing shouted as soon as he came in.
"Hey, boy, you were so handsome yesterday."
"Did you also go to the scene?" Chen Xing asked.
He didn't see the boss last night. There were a lot of people at the scene, some of them even dressed in fancy clothes. Chen Xing just followed the teacher to meet the boss everywhere, and he didn't know that his boss was also there.
"Of course I will go, I have been waiting for the scene where you win the award for a long time."
Although he is already very rich, but suddenly watching something he likes suddenly increase in value several times and be recognized by almost everyone, this feeling is his favorite moment as a middle-aged and artistic middle-aged man.
Among Chen Xing's works recognized as the best in the industry, one is in the Paris Art Association and two are still in the gallery. Among them, the winning Miao Village painting was bought by Abbott long ago and now belongs to him
Of the private collections, the only ones without owners are the Buddha’s Light and the Tibetan Elder Zhuanshan.
These two paintings are to be sold to major museums to increase their popularity.
The old man Zhuanshan was tepid before, but now there are so many people wanting to buy it that the threshold is almost broken, and Seth’s face goes numb from smiling.
Chen Xing doesn't care where his photos are placed, he only cares about money now.
So many photos were sold at once, and the people in the offices in the gallery were crazy busy. But even so, they still adhere to the daily routine of going to work at ten o'clock and getting off work at four o'clock in the afternoon to drink coffee.
If they hadn't all liked Chen Xing, they would probably be getting ready to get off work at three o'clock, let alone four o'clock.
Chen Xing came today to see them settle accounts.
He is waiting to get the money...
Abbott's visit to the gallery also has something to do with Chen Xing.
He came to collect the paintings.
He had shown off Chen Xing to many people before. He was not the kind of businessman who signed him because he thought Chen Xing had a bright future, but a Bole who wanted to help promote Chen Xing's fame because he liked the photos he took.
So I really don’t want to sell this photo. One reason is that I like it, and another reason is that it is very memorable.
Put it here, if any of your friends come to kill you, you will be dead if you don't stop it.
So he wants to put the photos in a safer place first.
He directed people to move the paintings, and suddenly remembered something and said to Chen Xing: "Wait a moment, I have a gift for you."
Chen Xing was curious and asked: "What is it?"
"It's no longer mysterious if you say it. Just wait here for a while and I'll ask someone to pick it up."
Chen Xing nodded.
He had to return to the hotel at noon, and the income he should have received would be almost finished by noon today.
Some people may say, wouldn’t it be enough to add up all the money from selling the photos and divide it according to proportion? A few million euros is not a lot, and it won’t be enough in a few days?
Ha, naive.
If it were really that simple, there would be no tax disputes in the world.
Chen Xing and Seth were chatting about their future lives. Chen Xing was thinking about how to spend the money he earned. This was a very vulgar idea. Seth kept telling Chen Xing about how he would organize the gallery in the future and open a branch in one year.
Went to Paris and bought a piece of land in New York in three years.
This dream is very good.
Chen Xing also wants to make money from America.
But so far, Chen Xing is the only one who is famous for being a full-fledged gallery. If he wants to realize this dream, he will have to push a few artists to go out.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Only an hour later, Boss Abbott's car was parked in the alley behind the gallery. Chen Xing saw the car from the window of his office and saw someone taking a white packaging box from the back seat with something on it.
What is this sign?
Looks a bit familiar.
Chen Xing and Seth both walked out.
Seth reacted faster than Chen Xing. When he came out and saw the package, he said, "Isn't this the National Geographic logo? Boss, what did you give him?"
"National Geographic?"
Chen Xing immediately realized that the Chinese National Geographic logo was not much different from this one.
"Yes, come and see."
Seeing Chen Xing and the others come out, Abbott was not prepared to go into the gallery again, and asked Chen Xing to unpack with a smile on his face.
In fact, when Chen Xing heard the name, he probably knew what it was.
This gift is wrapped very delicately. From this aspect, it looks very expensive. Because the packaging is not second-hand packaging by the person who bought it, but the original packaging from the factory.
After finally opening the carton, the contents were exactly as Chen Xing expected.
Pick it up and shake it, it’s a travel bag.
The classic National Geographic black and gray, and it is different from the ones sold on the Internet. The bags found on Dongdong or Baobao are relatively small, and they are said to be travel bags, but there are more suitable travel bags all over the Internet.
Still cheap.
But this one is very big, about the same size as Chen Xing's original bag. I don't know what material is used on the side with the strap. It feels soft, but if you find an angle, you can make this side very hard.
Very cool.
The reason for this function is that there are two pulley devices hidden under the backpack.
Most of the time, this bag is still carried like a normal travel bag, but if you go to the city and there are a lot of things in the backpack, you can take advantage of this function to make the traveler more comfortable.
Wow...
Chen Xing was amazed in his heart.
The waterproof function seems to be good.
There are quite a lot of things that can be packed... I actually have my own power bank? Where is it placed? Can I still charge this backpack?
This leather feels really textured, what is it made of?
Some high-tech functions still require Chen Xing to explore slowly. When Abbott saw that Chen Xing liked it, he, as a gift giver, was satisfied. He also said: "Your previous bag has been used for so long. I recently went to a
When I was traveling to the United States, I just happened to make a reservation in your name when I was passing by. The number of the backpack is unique, and you can be found on their website."
"Thank you, boss." Chen Xing said very sincerely.
Who wouldn’t want to work for such a boss?
"Just take more pictures of good scenery and publish them. I have too many social activities. If I have time, I will also give up some and go out for travel."
After giving the gift, Abbott looked at his watch and said, "Let's talk. I'll leave first. Seth, if you have anything you can't solve, call me. If anyone comes to the gallery and says they want to see Chen Xing's Night
Guzhai, just say you were taken away by me."
He left immediately, getting in the car and leaving before they could react.
I guess something is really going on.
Seth looked at Chen Xing's bag with a little envy. Even if he didn't use it, it would look good in his collection.
"The boss is definitely your number one fan."
Chen Xing chuckled, put the travel bag on his back to try it out, and said, "Is this what the top brother feels like?"
"What's the big brother on the list?"
Chen Xing gave Seth a little popularization of the meaning of this word.
There are also anchors on YouTube, and he will understand after a little explanation.
The live streaming industry is toxic. When you are a YouTube anchor, the income of the top anchors cannot be compared with domestic anchors, but the video income is far higher than any domestic video platform, and the worst among them is the big brother on the list.

After waiting for a while, with the promise of treating a few girls to a big dinner, I finally got them to calculate the money before lunch.
Chen Xing can share 1.91 million this time.
The unit is Euro.
Part of the money will be deposited into Hua Xia Bank, and the rest will be kept in an account opened by Chen Xing in France.
At Chen Xing's urging, Seth completed the transfer in half an hour, and then complained: "I don't know what you are anxious about. It's not like you have anything urgent to spend money on. As for coming to the gallery early in the morning to guard
Are you here?"
Chen Xing looked at the received text message and said in Chinese: "I'm afraid of being poor..."
He really didn't need money, but he was happy to see so many numbers in his bank account.
"What did you say?"
This time Chen Xing didn't explain to him. Taking the new bag with the brand on it, Chen Xing was about to leave and said: "I will transfer you two thousand euros in a moment, and you can take those beauties out for a nice meal."
, you kid, please stop being corrupt."
"You're not going?"
Seth knew that Chen Xing was going to treat the employees of the administrative department, but he didn't expect that the real owner, Chen Xing, had run away.
"Not going."
Hedwig is still waiting for him in the hotel. At present, Hedwig is still not used to social situations with many people. In the past, you might have thought that Hedwig's personality would be too withdrawn, but now I think it's pretty good.
As long as you are not afraid of yourself.
It would be very trouble-free to find a girlfriend who is abroad and has almost severed ties with her family. You don’t have to worry about any troubles in her family. If she gets married in the future, she will have to get used to him in life, rather than you having to get used to her. Although she is very withdrawn and likes to be alone, she does not need others to take care of her life. The most important thing is that Hedwig has not been brainwashed by the Internet and is a normal woman.
It’s rare, it’s rare.
I didn’t think about this before, but now I feel there are so many benefits.
Back at the hotel, Chen Xing knocked on Hedwig's door.
After thinking for a while, he took out his phone and sent a text message: "It's me, open the door."
Then wait outside.
He began to look at the photos and paintings on the corridor outside. There was one between the doors of every room, either photographs, watercolors, oil paintings, etc. There were many types of artworks.
The door opened a little, and Chen Xing quickly went in.
Then she found that Hedwig had made a mess in the room again, with an easel in front of the window and a lot of paint on the floor... Fortunately, the bed was still white and clean, which made Chen Xing a little regretful.
It seems that she will sleep here at night.
Hedwig seems to have a talent. She throws her paint around randomly, but she can always find it. Moreover, the bed is also set up with a barrier, and only things from daily life are placed on it - such as clothes, skirts, etc.
The work area is very messy.
Chen Xing put the food he bought on the table and said, "I will have to buy you a big house in the future, and set aside a room as a studio. Otherwise, the bedroom will always be so messy."
Hedwig smiled, but her smile was a little nervous, and she kept looking to the side.
What are you nervous about?
Chen Xing thought to herself, following her gaze she saw the easel placed in front of the window.
After being turned over, Chen Xing could only see the back side.
"What are you drawing?"
Chen Xing wanted to go over and have a look, but Hedwig suddenly moved quickly and grabbed Chen Xing and said, "You can't look!!"
"Ouch~"
Chen Xing's tone was drawn out...
You gave it to me, right?
You are such an inexperienced little girl, even Xiao Xiuer is more scheming than you.
Chen Xing stopped watching, but was looking forward to it.
He sat on the bed and said: "Let's eat. How about we walk around South Fadoud in the past few days? Do you have anything else to deal with in Paris?"
Hedwig nodded happily, then shook her head.
"What's wrong?" Chen Xing asked.
She looked at her painting.
"Okay, let's go back to Paris first."
This is really a conversation in a dream - Hedwig thought to herself.
She wanted to finish her painting at home first. In the past two days, inspiration had been pouring out of her mind, and her emotions were overflowing. She would wake up laughing very quickly when she fell asleep.
Any artist should understand that this is not the time to run around.
