Recently, more and more people are looking for me.
Most of them are people from the photography industry. The Chinese Photography Association, which had already declined twice, sent a director this time instead of simply sending out an invitation letter as usual.
This director is seventy years old, but he is in good health. There are still a few books he wrote on Chen Xing's bookshelf. He shot many real scenes during the war. To have this person invite him, he is considered a favor.
Chen Xing.
After the interview, he agreed to join.
Photography in China is declining now. Whether it is artistic photography or commercial photography, few people in China can go out. Stars sometimes go to foreign photographers to take commercial photos.
The Chinese Photography Association needs to rely on Chen Xing's fame to increase its influence in the country. Ordinary members can get photography courses for free after joining. Compared with photography classes outside that cost thousands or tens of thousands, the Photography Association only needs to pay for their own food and accommodation.
After Chen Xing joined, he had an official status, and he was given optional teaching tasks.
From now on, he can go to class if he wants to. If he doesn't want to go, it will be the same as not joining. During the holidays, there will be condolences from the association. No wonder so many people like to join this association or that association. The treatment is similar to that of civil servants.
He won such a big photography festival award in France, but few people in China knew him. However, he became famous once in the island country, and after returning to China, various official or semi-official people came to him.
If you go to the countryside to take pictures of the stars, you will be called back halfway.
This kind of popularity has also made Chen Xing confirm that he is not a celebrity, and has reduced the frequency of posting videos on Beep. Now he only posts photos or updates on INS.
As the temperature in Chengdu got higher and higher, he went to France to escape the summer heat, and also spent time with Hedwig.
Hedwig's life during this period was no different from before. Other painters like to go out to collect ideas and travel to get inspiration. Hedwig just likes to stay in her room, and her paintings begin to show more of her soul.
Imagery.
This is considered to have its own style.
If he hadn't suddenly received news from Zhou Peng, he might have had to wait until summer was over before going back.
In July, when the average temperature in France is still 20 degrees Celsius, the temperature in Chengdu has reached around 35 degrees Celsius during the day. After staying in a place without air conditioning for half an hour, the heat seems to have burned into the skin, making it unspeakably uncomfortable.
I first put down my luggage when I got home. Before I even finished packing my clothes, Zhou Peng came over.
We haven’t seen each other for a while. Why has the tonnage increased again?
The two of them had similar figures when they were in school. Zhou Peng looked stronger at most, but now his weight management is completely out of control and he has probably gained 20 to 30 kilograms.
When Chen Xing opened the door and saw this scene, he was disgusted.
"Why are you fat again?"
"What's wrong with me being fat? I didn't eat your rice."
Zhou Peng retorted, then wiped his sweat and walked in to enjoy the air conditioning. He looked back at his brother who was getting more and more powerful, looking at him from top to bottom...
Damn it, I feel more handsome than before.
So he sighed and said, "Who dares to ask you to be the best man if you are like this? Don't let everyone in the scene look at you. Who cares who the groom is?"
"Then who are you looking for?" Chen Xing closed the door and took out two bottles of soda water from the refrigerator, "Here, you are suitable to drink this sugar-free drink now, why are you suddenly getting married?"
Yes, the reason why I came back from France in a hurry this time was because Zhou Peng was getting married.
Zhou Peng slapped his thigh: "You think I want it, you hit it!"
"ah?"
"Ah, what? I am getting married. I was a little panicked when I found out that her aunt was not here this month. After a test, it turned out to be true. Damn it, I drank some wine at the time and didn't think much about it."
"How long?"
"It's been more than a month. Fortunately, the examination was quick...it's useless to check quickly. We're getting married anyway."
"Why."
Chen Xing sighed, sat next to Zhou Peng and patted his shoulders a few times to comfort him.
The two biggest prodigal sons in the school didn't expect that one of them would get married when he was 23 years old. Although Zhou Peng was a bit of a playboy, he still had a sense of responsibility. After discussing it with his family, he decided to give birth to a child.
This child.
"When exactly?"
"The 20th of next month is the most auspicious day. During this time, we need to decorate the wedding room and take the wedding photos. Can you take them?"
He knew that it was very expensive for Chen Xing to take pictures now, so he asked casually. He understood Chen Xing if he didn't want to take pictures.
"Let's shoot, but I've decided to take you as the best man. How many will you choose?"
"You are the only one, as you said, who else can I turn to?"
"Haha, let's go out and drink."
Chen Xing looked at the photo of Zhou Peng's girlfriend. She looked pretty good, but she was two years older than Zhou Peng. She was 25 years old and worked in the tax bureau as a civil servant.
Zhou Peng was driving on the road. He was holding a cigarette and said in a deep voice: "We will have children in the future, and it's time to stabilize. Well...is your French girlfriend still alive?"
"Here, I'll ask her to come over next month."
"You haven't changed yet? Then you've been here for a long time."
"I like her very much. She is pretty and sensible. She spends all her time with me when I am around. When I am not with her, she is also immersed in her own world and never leaves the house. This kind of girlfriend is so trouble-free.
Where should I find it?"
"Indeed, then you are happier than me."
He began to chatter endlessly about his current girlfriend, who had a fierce personality, put all his calmness on work, and was quite impulsive in his daily life.
There are many shortcomings, but Zhou Peng may not even know it. He is laughing when he talks about these shortcomings.
A smile that feels very happy.
This was the first time Chen Xing had seen this kind of smile. It seemed that Zhou Peng had adapted to his father's identity and matured all of a sudden.
Is getting married that good?
He thought of the person he met while traveling before, the figure who only moved forward. He wondered if he had stopped now or was still traveling alone.
At that time, he said something that Chen Xing remembered very clearly. He said that men will definitely regret getting married.
However, someone also told Chen Xing that if you don't get married, you will definitely regret it.
There is no right or wrong in these two statements. Chen Xing feels that for people who have never been married, the second statement is correct. But for men who have been married, most of them will probably choose the first one, and then envy those who are still
Single friends.
Both of them drank a lot tonight, and Chen Xing saw Zhou Peng's future wife in the middle of the night.
She has shoulder-length short hair, black-rimmed glasses, and a professional skirt. It can be seen that she rushed here right after work, and her whole person has an intellectual beauty.
Chen Xing did not see the aggressive and impulsive person. She only saw that this person named Qin Xinlei took good care of the drunk Zhou Peng. This kind of thoughtfulness made Chen Xing envious... Hedwig could not do these things.
