If he hadn’t gotten up a little late, Chen Xing should have been in the gallery at this time.

But he was woken up by Hedwig's phone call after ten o'clock.

Ten o'clock is the time when Chen Xing's photography exhibition starts.

After hanging up the phone, Hedwig felt a little aggrieved.

She asked Chen Xing yesterday if he could bring her with him, but Chen Xing said that he would come to the gallery very early and let himself have a good rest until the exhibition started. As a result, Chen Xing is still sleeping in the hotel.

In other words, when I left the hotel, he was right next door to me...

If I had known earlier, I would have knocked on the door.

Chen Xing didn't come, and Hedwig was too embarrassed to find Seth, so she chose to buy a ticket and enter like an ordinary tourist.

The ticket price of ten euros is not expensive.

The photography exhibition has just started and there are not many people coming, so there is no need to queue up.

The Perenna Gallery covers an area of ​​about 1,000 square meters. It is a first-class large gallery in the city of Arles. It originally contained oil paintings, watercolors, photography and many other works, but now they are all taken off the shelves and put into the warehouse. The entire gallery

There are only works by Chen Xing.

After entering from the entrance, the beige walls of the gallery are so new that there are no stains.

Chen Xing's works are printed out and placed on the wall. The distance between each work is about 1.5 meters. The strong and thick colors almost pop out of the picture. When a large number of such works are put together, they become even more prominent.

Magnificent colors.

Hedwig walked very slowly and looked very carefully.

Most of the tourists who came to visit were as serious as her, carefully observing each of Chen Xing's works. These people looked like suits and ties, and even the ladies were in well-fitting professional attire. They were all the kind with money in their pockets.
p>

Are these people collectors?

Hedwig was startled by her own thoughts. There were ten works by Chen Xing in the small corridor where she was, and there were seven or eight people here. It was impossible for all the collectors to be in the same corridor as her, right?

In addition to the corridor, there is also a lobby.

Hedwig walked into the gallery's original lobby.

There is a huge skylight above this hall. Through the designers' hard work, the light transmittance of this hall is as bright as the outdoors, and most of the time it is not exposed to direct sunlight.

The light required in the gallery is quite special. The skylight can be opened, but it must be opened skillfully.

When she and Chen Xing came here before, they didn't pay attention to so many external details. It felt like this gallery alone was already a rare work of art.

There are more people in the hall.

There are reporters with microphones, and those with wireless microphones are basically self-media or Internet celebrities. Some tourists with cameras are also taking pictures with their cameras.

There is nothing secretive about this exhibition. You don’t have to worry about others taking photos and sending them out, and then they won’t come back.

Anyway, no matter how you restore it, it won’t have the clarity of the original film.

When she saw a painting, the person in front of her seemed to be a YouTube anchor, introducing Chen Xing's works live, but there were just a few words over and over again - good-looking, interesting, this one is OK, this one is not OK.
p>

What do you understand?

Just as she was working up the courage to explain, someone said behind her.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Hedwig forgot everything after hearing the sound and turned around with a smile.

Chen Xing did not wear a casual outfit today, but wore a black suit, which looked very formal. With his hair combed back, he looked like an old man, and he was much older than his real age.

"It came very quickly. Did you get your hair done in such a short time?"

"Do you still need to do it? Just comb it, doesn't it look good?"

"It's beautiful." Hedwig said.

"That's alright." Chen Xing put down his thoughts of looking for a place to take a look and said with a smile.

As soon as he came in from the side door, he spotted Hedwig among the hundreds of people in the hall. This must be said to be a kind of fate.

Many of the more than 100 people in the hall are in pairs, plus some guests in the corridor, so there are about 200 people in the gallery now? It has just opened, and there will definitely be more people in the afternoon.<

/p>

There is a small terrace on one side of the hall, which provides guests with some drinks, drinks, etc.

Chen Xing went over to say hello and came back with two glasses of lemonade.

"Did you buy your own ticket?"

"Yeah."

He was about to tell Hedwig that it wouldn't be a bad thing to ask more friends for help, but Seth, who knew that Chen Xing had arrived, had already asked someone to come find him. The young assistant came up and said: "Chen Xing, the boss asked me to inform you to come over.

."

The boss she talks about is not Abbott, but Seth.

Abbott has other careers of his own. If there is nothing special, he usually won't come here.

As for looking at Chen Xing’s works.

He has seen enough in the past few days and there is no need to visit with these tourists.

Chen Xing nodded and said: "Okay, I understand."

Then he said to Hedwig: "You can go shopping by yourself for a while, I'll go and get busy first."

"You go ahead, I want to enjoy it."

This sentence made Chen Xing feel very comfortable. He nodded and followed the female assistant to the gallery's office.

In addition to Seth, there were three people here, one of whom was Dellin. He had said before that he would come to see Chen Xing's photography exhibition, but he didn't tell Chen Xing when he would come. The other two seemed to be together, one was in his forties.

A white female about 10 years old, dressed quite fashionably, the other one should be her assistant.

Seeing Chen Xing come in, Dellin greeted loudly: "Hello! Chen, my good junior brother! You are now prosperous."

Chen Xing went over and hugged him.

Although they often chat online, they haven't seen each other for a long time.

Seth waited for them to finish their greetings before introducing to the woman on the side: "Ms. Buffett, this is Chen Xing. Chen, this lady is a reporter from "European Art" from the UK."

Chen Xing shook hands with her and said, "Hello."

When it comes to Buffett, many people will think of the stock god, but these two people should be related. Buffett is a relatively big surname in Europe and the United States, just like there are many people in China named Chen, but they have the same surname.

"Call me Shadi. I like your work very much. Compared with the last time I saw the Oriental Ancient Village, the Buddha's Light this time has made obvious progress. Your colors are the best among the photographers I have seen."

The most natural."

"Thank you."

Chen Xing looked at Seth with doubts in his eyes.

What is going on? Can you please tell me a few more words. Is this an interview or something else?

Before Seth could speak, Sadie continued.

"Can you talk about your experiences? How did you and Mr. Dellin meet, and how did Mr. Seth find you? If possible, I would like to take a photo with you. Your girlfriend shouldn't mind.

?"

Chen Xing shook his head.

She may have seen herself chatting with Hedwig just now.

Dellin was wearing a denim jacket, hooking up with Chen Xing and saying in a tone of voice that we have a very good relationship:

"Chen Xing and I met in school. Although I have graduated a long time ago, I often go to school to meet my teacher. Chen Xing is a famous figure in our school. Many people know him..."<

/p>

Chen Xing was shocked again, what's going on with you? You've gone too far!

Dellin was talking eloquently, and Sadie stood looking at him with a smile. Chen Xing suddenly felt that he understood - does the senior like women much older than him? I knew before that he liked Sophie Marceau and Ellie.

Jie, Sadie is also about forty years old now...

What he said is probably true, including the fact that he later took Chen Xing to shoot celebrities and received a lot of welcome.

Shadi smiled and said: "It turns out that Mr. Chen Xing is also very famous in commercial photography, and he has cooperated with so many French stars and fashion brands."

"It's a fluke." Chen Xing said modestly.

Seth’s story did not mention the name of his boss, Abbott. He proudly said:

"Chen Xing is my biggest surprise this year. As soon as I saw his works in this Arles photography exhibition, there was only one voice in my heart, that is, I must sign him. His Chinese style must be

It will lead the fashion trend in art in the next few years..."

How come I didn’t know Seth’s acting skills were so good before?
