Fringe artists in the entertainment industry

Chapter 261 259. Xiangjiang doesn’t respect you, but Tokyo welcomes you!

On the white dining table, the attractive-colored steak has gone cold, but it still looks appetizing.

Chen Li'an, who had slept for more than ten hours and exercised for nearly an hour, didn't mind that the steak was already cold.

He cut a piece with a knife and fork and put it in his mouth. Seeing that Wang Zuxian was sitting opposite and had no appetite, he asked, "Why don't you eat it? Do you want me to heat it up for you?"

Wang Zuxian lay weakly on the dining table, took a sip of juice and said, "I don't have any appetite, I need to replenish water."

Zhang Guorong, who was sitting on the sofa not far away, heard this and couldn't help but coughed and turned to look at them and said: "Can you two stop saying such strange things! Go buy a new set of sheets and return them later. I!"

Wang Zuxian blushed when she heard Zhang Guorong's words. She lightly shrugged her shoulders and stuck out her tongue and said, "I know, we'll go home tonight!"

Chen Li'an paused while cutting the steak, picked up the red wine, took a sip and looked at Wang Zuxian and said, "I have something to do today, and it will probably be very late. You don't have to wait for me tonight."

"What do you want to do?" Wang Zuxian asked curiously.

Chen Li'an wiped his mouth and said: "I have invited many foreign and mainland friends over, so I always want to thank you."

"Yes, you just left yesterday, which was quite rude." Wang Zuxian nodded seriously, looked at Chen Li'an and said, "But they probably won't care. Aren't all artists unique?"

Chen Li'an smiled and said: "You have to be independent and adhere to universal values, so you still have to express your gratitude."

"Yeah, then you go ahead. I'll wait for you at home tonight." Wang Zuxian said considerately.

"What are you waiting for? Let's play cards together tonight!" Zhang Guorong interjected from the side.

Wang Zuxian turned her head and looked at Zhang Guorong and said, "You can play cards with Jingwen and the others. I don't want to play."

Zhang Guorong, who had called a long time ago, said helplessly: "Jing Wen doesn't have time today, you are not allowed to run away later!"

Wang Zuxian: "." You won't get tired of playing mahjong every day!

Chen Li'an just wanted to look at them with a smile, and felt a little strange in his heart. The princess had not released an album or had any concerts recently, but she would refuse Zhang Guorong to play mahjong together.

Could it be that he was waiting for him? Chen Li'an subconsciously touched his chin, feeling that he would definitely receive a call from the princess in the evening.

In fact, this is indeed the case. The princess is currently at home thinking about what to wear in the evening and where to go on a date.

After Chen Li'an finished eating and said goodbye to Wang Zuxian and the others, he went directly to the art space.

It's not easy for so many artists to get together. It makes no sense not to hold an art salon to entertain them.

When Chen Li'an came to the Wave Art Space, there were many artists gathered inside, and many of them were rushing here after receiving calls from Chen Li'an.

Chen Li'an ordered afternoon tea at several nearby tea restaurants, but there were no tables or chairs in the art space, and no one cared to find a place to sit there in twos and threes and chat.

Without the restrictions of tables and chairs, the atmosphere became more free and relaxed. Today, there were no reporters or paparazzi to disturb us. We all gathered together to talk about art, literature, and the current artistic environment and atmosphere in various countries.

Chen Li'an is really grateful to these people for coming here and for being able to speak out for themselves.

The most important thing is that these people have spoken out. The paparazzi and media in Hong Kong do not dare to refute or write nonsense. They all remain silent.

In the corner of the crowd, several local artists in Xiangjiang felt very excited at the moment, because Chen Li'an's appearance gave them a different artistic atmosphere in Xiangjiang.

In the past, Hong Kong rarely gathered so many artists. Such a scene has not happened for decades.

But they also feel sad because Xiangjiang has been labeled an art desert internationally.

This also means that the international image of artists from Hong Kong will be greatly reduced, and it will even affect the value of their works. Furthermore, art collectors may not be willing to collect their paintings.

Chen Li'an did not expect this. There is indeed no artistic soil in Xiangjiang now, but after the millennium, the Xiangjiang government vigorously promoted the development of art and held various large and small art festivals and art exhibitions.

At that time, art was almost becoming another business card of Xiangjiang, but now it seems that it was killed in advance by Chen Li'an.

Chen Li'an felt that he was quite innocent, and he could only blame the unscrupulous paparazzi and media.

It is difficult for others to understand the sadness of the local artists in Hong Kong. Even many people in Hong Kong cannot understand it. Art is sometimes too far away from life, and most people feel that it has nothing to do with them.

Even Li Lizhen, who likes painting, sat in the corner and listened to the angry complaints of several Xiangjiang painters, but she didn't feel much in her heart.

Does this affect your painting? It doesn't seem to affect me, so why bother with so many things? Anyway, I just enjoy my paintings at home, and I don't expect my paintings to sell.

Li Lizhen drank frozen lemon tea and sat cross-legged next to a pillar. Her eyes were always on Chen Li'an, watching him chatting with others.

She didn't know why she came here today, but she couldn't help but be curious and wanted to come and take a look. As for whether she wanted to see Chen Li'an's works or him, she didn't know in her heart.

Anyway, after she came in, she only looked at the heart for less than two seconds and then didn't look at it again.

Chen Li'an didn't know yet that he had attracted his first teacher, and he didn't notice Li Lizhen sitting in the corner. He was chatting with Ido Muranji about next year's Tokyo Art Festival.

Ido Muruji feels like he has seized a good opportunity. If Chen Li'an is not respected in Xiangjiang, come to Tokyo! Tokyo welcomes you!

After seeing Chen Li'an's work, Ido Muruji decided in his heart that Chen Li'an would definitely become a master of modern art and a man who could possibly stand at the pinnacle of art!

Moreover, Ido Muruji felt that he could use this opportunity to invite Chen Li'an to Tokyo, which would be a good comparison with Xiangjiang and tell artists around the world that Tokyo respects artists very much.

This may be because Xiangjiang is used as a control group, but Tokyo does better than Xiangjiang in this regard.

"Mr. Chen, please come to Tokyo to participate in the art festival! We respect art very much and respect every artist!" Ido Muruji looked at Chen Li'an sincerely and asked.

Chen Li'an couldn't help coughing and said: "But my works may not be suitable for the Tokyo Art Festival. Let's talk about participation. But I will definitely participate in the Sino-Japanese Art Exchange next year!"

Ido Muruji was a little disappointed, but he still seriously invited him again: "Hong Kong is not suitable for you. There is no soil for art here. A few decades ago, there were artists from mainland China who supported it, but now it is completely lonely."

"Mr. Chen, Tokyo will be more suitable for you! Tokyo is not only the economic center of Asia, but also the center of modern art!"

Chen Li'an nodded in approval. Ido Muranji was right. Tokyo in 1996 was more developed than many first-tier cities in China twenty years later.

In the 1990s, the economic gap between China and Japan was still very large.

The development of modern art cannot be separated from the economic foundation. Tokyo is indeed more suitable for the development of modern art than China.

However, Chen Li'an has not yet decided whether to participate in the Tokyo Art Festival, because he is currently struggling with the invitation to the Venice Art Biennale.

Next year's Venice Art Biennale has invited many Chinese artists, and it seems that Chinese artists are the focus of next year's art exhibition.

The organizers of next year's art exhibition personally called Chen Li'an to make an appointment to meet and visit. The purpose was to invite Chen Li'an to Venice next year.

It suddenly became popular, and Chen Li'an was still a little uncomfortable with it.

Before I knew it, I became a great artist.

Just when Chen Li'an was struggling, a woman wearing sunglasses suddenly walked in and walked straight towards Chen Li'an.

Chen Li'an knew she was the princess at a glance, and even with a mask and sunglasses on, she could recognize her at a glance.

After all, Chen Li'an will never forget those legs.

After Chen Li'an and Ido Muruji said sorry, they walked towards the princess, and the two walked to the corner in tacit understanding.

Before Chen Li'an could speak, the princess put her little hand on Chen Li'an's arm and stroked the muscles on his arm. Her eyes under the sunglasses were full of greed!

"When will you finish here?" The princess looked up at Chen Li'an with a hint of spring in her voice.

Chen Li'an looked at the princess's eyes through the black lenses. He couldn't help but smile and said, "It may be a little later. Why did you come here suddenly?"

"I miss you." The princess pulled down her sunglasses with her slender fingers, revealed her eyes and looked at Chen Li'an and said, "What time do you want, I miss you so much!"

The princess finished the last few words word for word. Chen Li'an immediately understood what she meant. He squeezed her little hand helplessly and said, "Let's wait until the evening is over. We can't leave them here now."

The princess let out a disappointed sound, then raised her head and looked at Chen Li'an and said, "Then where is the bathroom here?"

Just as Chen Li'an was about to point it out to the princess, he felt something rub against his calf. When he lowered his head, he saw that the princess had bent her leg and rubbed against him intentionally.

Chen Li'an still didn't understand this hint. He looked at the princess and said seriously: "Are you sure? It's very dangerous!"

The princess mumbled with a somewhat erratic look in her eyes: "I don't understand what you are saying. I'm going to the bathroom. You can do whatever you want. I'll listen to you."

After saying that, the princess ran away. Chen Li'an looked at her back and hesitated for less than a second before following her.

I can’t afford to be sorry for the queen, Princess, for even one more second!

Ido Muruji, who had been chatting with Chen Li'an before, had been paying attention to Chen Li'an. When he saw him and a woman leaving one after another, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

It seems that there is a new method, and Chen Li'an also has his own weaknesses.

Most artists are sentimental. Maybe they can try other methods to invite Chen Li'an to Tokyo.

Next time, Chen Li'an must feel the sincerity and enthusiasm of Tokyo!

Li Lizhen, who had also been secretly paying attention to Chen Li'an, just came out of the bathroom and saw Chen Li'an and a woman walking over, and he recognized the woman as the princess.

Li Li really felt that she knew a big piece of gossip. She turned around and watched them getting closer and closer and finally disappeared around the corner. She was extremely curious.

Isn't it said that Chen Li'an and Wang Zuxian are having a scandal?

Why are you still having an affair with the princess now? This man is really a playboy.

But thinking about Chen Li'an's good figure and physical strength, Li Lizhen didn't think it was surprising.

How can a man not be lustful, especially a man with money is even more lustful!

Li Lizhen, who has acted in so many restricted-rated movies, has a deep understanding of this truth!

Men will not be lustful until they die!

Even TXL is equally lustful! It's just that I'm lustful towards men, and it's even more exaggerated

Li Lizhen looked at the two people disappearing at the end of the corridor and couldn't help but walk back.

I just didn't wash my hands clean and wanted to go back and wash them again. It was not because I was curious about what these two people wanted to do. Anyway, I couldn't have sex in broad daylight.

Although Li Li really felt that this must be the case, she always had to find an excuse for herself to follow.

After Li Lizhen went back quietly, she heard the sound of kissing, suppressed breathing, and the friction of clothes.

In the small space, Chen Li'an took the princess's hand and said, "You really plan to stay here, go to the lounge at the back."

As an art space that will open in the future, it will definitely have its own lounge. The princess blushed and let go of Chen Li'an's hand, letting him lead her towards the back.

Li Lizhen, who heard the noise, immediately turned on the faucet and pretended to wash her hands. Through the mirror, she saw Chen Li'an pulling the princess away.

When Chen Li'an passed by Li Li, he felt something looked familiar, so he took another look, but was pinched by the princess.

"What are you looking at!" The princess pinched the soft flesh on Chen Li'an's waist and said angrily, "Can't you just be honest for a moment!"

Chen Li'an explained helplessly: "It feels familiar, but I don't know any female painter from Xiangjiang. I don't know whether she is from Tokyo or Xiangjiang."

"Why can't they be from the mainland?" The princess loosened her clutches and asked curiously.

"Mainland painters don't wrap themselves up so tightly, just like you now." Chen Li'an said with a sigh, looked back and muttered: "Maybe they are also celebrities, are there other art stars in Hong Kong besides Xu Jinjiang? "

"What are you mumbling about? Come on, hurry up!" the princess asked angrily, pulling him in quickly and anxiously.

Chen Li'an: "."

The diva was a little too eager today! There will be another fierce battle later!

No wonder she's wearing stiletto heels and black stockings! This is to maximize the attack speed!

The two of them almost reached the lounge at the back. Before Chen Li'an could stand firm, the princess pushed him to the wall and gave him a kick.

Chen Li'an lowered his head and glanced at the two long legs of the princess that were pressing against him tightly, and immediately hugged her waist and kissed her.
