miss [rebirth]

After sending Fang Zhi to the door of the piano teacher's house, Chen Nian turned around and walked down.

The doorbell rang, but the teacher hadn't come to open the door yet. Fang Zhi turned to look at her, and pointed to the watch on her wrist through the gap in the railing.

"Understood." Chen Nian gave her an ok gesture, "I'll pick you up when the time comes."

Fang Zhi felt relieved, the door opened and she entered the room.Chen Nian bounced downstairs, and when he stepped into the blazing sunlight outside, he suddenly felt a little confused.

Do you really want to go to the library?She has read too many books for nothing in the past few years.

Fang Zhi is working hard to learn what she likes,? What about her, should she also find something to do?

A gust of wind blew by, and the poplar leaves on both sides of the road rustled.

A bean-sized drop of water hit Chen Nian's forehead. Chen Nian looked up. It was sunny for most of the day, but the rainstorm was coming.

She looked around, trying to find a place to shelter from the rain.

I saw someone on the other side of the street is scrambling to put away the equipment. I was so anxious that the tripod could not be closed.

Chen Nian wiped his face and ran over to help someone grab the shelf, and asked him to remove the camera first.

The reflector fell to the ground, the rain fell on it, and there was a bang bang bang bang.

That person wants to collect things again,? Chen Nian pushed him: "You go in with the camera first, and there is no rush for these things."

Chen Nian's tone was too hateful, not at all like what a little girl could say, the man froze.

Chen Nian stared at him, and he hurried into the nearby shop with the camera in his arms.

Chen Nian is already a little wet, so he is not so anxious.

Grabbing the tripod in one hand and the reflector in the other, he saw a bag next to him, so he took it all and walked into the store.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." The boy thanked her a series of times, and came over to pick up the things in her hand. Chen Nian handed her the bag, but not the others.

"What's your name?" Chen Nian asked.

"Zhu Dong." The boy replied, "Thank you, thank you, thank you."

Chen Nian rolled back the reflector and handed it to him, then started to put away the tripod: "Is this your shop?"

Zhu Dong blushed and looked flustered: "No, I, I'm an apprentice..."

Chen Nian glanced at him up and down, and slammed the tripod on the ground: "Then quickly wipe all the equipment with a dry rag, and I won't accept it."

Zhu Dong: "Hey hey."

Chen

Nian: "Check the camera, don't get in the water."

Zhu Dong: "Hey hey."

Chen Nian turned his head to look: "Is there no one in the shop?"

Zhu Dong blushed even more, and became more flustered: "Master, Master is going out."

"Oh." Chen Nian sat down on the chair beside him, "Then can I sit here for a while?"

Zhu Dong: "You sit, you sit, you... do you drink water?"

"Drink, thank you." Chen Nian said.

Zhu Dong is indeed an apprentice, and he has only been in the shop for a few days.

He is not familiar with the equipment, but he is very skilled in entertaining people.He quickly brought Chen Nian a glass of water, took a pack of tissues and put them on the table in front of Chen Nian, and asked, "Do you want to take pictures?"

Boys aged seventeen or eighteen were as thin as a brick, and they shy away from talking to Chen Nian.

"I don't take pictures," Chen Nian pointed outside, "I hide from the rain."

In the summer, the heavy rain comes very quickly, and there will be a thunderbolt outside, and the ground will rise, and beautiful water splashes will rise like dancing on the ground.

"Oh." Zhu Dong replied, a little stunned.

Chen Nian: "Hurry up and wipe your things."

Zhu Dong: "Oh oh oh."

He went to work, so Chen Nian drank water slowly and observed this small photo studio by the way.

There are two floors, the lower part is for entertaining people, and the upper part is estimated to have a shed.The most conspicuous place on the wall in the store is the picture of the certificate as usual, and the other most hung are pictures of children.

A commemoration for a hundred days, a commemoration for three years old.

It seems to be taking the practical route.

After Zhu Dong finished wiping his things, he looked at the camera carefully, with a worried expression on his face.

"It should be fine." Chen Nian said, "If you don't worry, open it and have a look."

Zhu Dong frowned, pitifully: "I... still can't..."

Chen Nian: "Just now I had the guts to take it out and take pictures, but now I don't have the guts to open it and check it?"

Zhu Dong hurriedly waved his hands: "I am, I am not, I am, I took it out, I didn't turn it on, so I just looked at it..."

Chen Nian felt that he was really pitiful, and his tone softened a little: "Your master won't let you touch the camera?"

Zhu Dong stopped talking and stood there blankly.

Chen Nian stretched out his hand: "Then you take it here and let me have a look, I promise not to damage it."

Zhu Dong shook his head: "No, no, I'd better see for myself."

Hey, don't believe her yet.

Chen Nian twitched the corners of his mouth, continued to drink tea slowly, and watched him fiddle with it slowly.

Indeed, many commercial photography companies recruit apprentices, who work as handymen for the first few months or even more than half a year.

The daily work is to move things, turn on the lights, and carry bags to tease people.After the photo is taken, my work is also over, and I rarely touch the camera.

Photographic equipment is expensive, and the lens is fragile. To put it a bit more seriously, it is not a problem to scare newcomers.

But in fact, the point of the problem is not here. No matter how delicate the camera is, it is not paper, and normal operation will not damage it.

The reason for suppressing newcomers is that for a shoot, only one photographer is needed, while various assistants need many.

There is always someone to do the hard and unfulfilling work. If you don’t do it, why do you still let other teachers and parents do it?

Besides, for photography, the operation technique is the simplest, and you can figure it out in a few days.What is difficult to develop into artistic photography is creativity and aesthetics, and what is difficult to develop into commercial photography is customers and channels.

All these need to be studied for a long time, and if you read more with Master, you can get more in your mind.

But of course, it made sense, Chen Nian looked at Zhu Dong's frightened appearance, and still felt that he was quite pitiful.

Zhu Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief after checking the camera: "It should be fine."

"Well." Chen Nian said, "Then you should put it away quickly, and be careful when your master comes back suddenly..."

Zhu Dong took his things and trotted into the house.

When she came out, Chen Nian asked him boredly: "What did you want to shoot just now? In broad daylight with a tripod."

Zhu Dong scratched the back of his head: "I want to take a picture of the car."

Chen Nian: "What are you doing with that bigger reflector for taking pictures of cars? If you just shoot people in the car they are driving, there will be a traffic accident."

Zhu Dong: "I'm useless, I'm just..."

The sound gradually disappeared.

"Hey..." Chen Nian sighed, "Forget it."

Zhu Dong shut his mouth, the rain was still falling outside, finally cooling down the hot weather.

When Chen Nian went to pour himself a second glass of water, Zhu Dong walked up to her and asked her in a low voice, "Little sister, do you know how to take pictures?"

Chen Nian: "One, my name is Chen Nian. Two, I can not only shoot."

Zhu Dong's eyes lit up, and Chen Nian said, "I can even double your store's sales."

Zhu Dong: "Huh?

"

Chen Nian: "Oh, it's just to let you have a lot of orders and make twice as much money!"

Zhu Dong: "Ah!!!"

The eyes are bright enough to emit laser light.

At this time, she was not so dazed anymore, took the cup in Chen Nian's hand and filled the water for her, and brought out a plate containing melon seeds and peanut candies from behind the counter, and placed Chen Nian comfortably on the seat.

"How can I earn more money?" Zhu Dong asked.

Chen Nian squinted at him: "How can I just tell others how to make money?"

Zhu Dong: "The little sister, ah, no, Master Chen, what do you want to tell me?"

Chen Nian: "I only tell people who listen to me."

Zhu Dong: "I'm very obedient."

Chen Nian: "Then I will assign you a task today."

In the following time, Chen Nian asked Zhu Dong about the situation in many stores, such as how many photographers there are, who is the boss, and the main source of customers.

In fact, Zhu Dong is not a completely obedient person, otherwise he would not study the camera by himself while his master was out, nor would he be evasive when Chen Nian asked these questions.

He is not a stupid person, his stupid appearance is just deliberately lowering his threat in order to gain the trust of others.

He could even be said to be bold. On this rainy day, he just chatted with a kid about business, and he was really eager to try.

Chen Nian grasped the basic situation, which was no different from what he had guessed.

This is an ordinary photography shop where the family is not busy and can't die. The owner is the only photographer in the shop now, and he brought two apprentices, one is Zhu Dong who has just been here for half a month, and the other has not been here for a long time. , I went out to take pictures with him today.

The source of customers is basically coming to the door by yourself, plus a little old relationship with Master.The main business is commemorative photos of various IDs, and the fees are not high.

The task Chen Nian assigned to Zhu Dong today was to talk to Master.

Talk about his salary, when he can touch the camera, and if he finds a client, is there any commission.

Both of them were testing each other, Chen Nian was idle anyway, whether this matter could go on, whether there was a good result, didn't have much influence on her.

When we were talking, the rain stopped.

A few ten minutes before Fang Zhi's get out of class ends, Chen Nian is shaking his legs slowly while drinking melon seeds and drinking tea

Zhu Dong shrank behind the counter and turned on the stereo to play songs for her.

It is the most popular singer now, and the song that all children in school like.

Chen Nian laughed, and said to him: "The customer is too nervous when taking pictures, so you can play a song for him, and you can play any kind of song you want to take photos with any feeling. It is suitable for people over three years old."

Zhu Dong: "What about children under the age of three?"

Chen Nian: "Show them monkeys."

When get out of class was over, Fang Zhi went out and saw Chen Nian standing in the corridor.

Chen Nian met her gaze, and grinned, showing his big white teeth like a fool.

Fang Zhi asked her: "When did you arrive? How long have you been waiting?"

Chen Nian ran two steps to her, and followed her down: "Just arrived, I'm counting the time."

Fang Zhi: "But I'm 5 minutes late for get out of class today."

Chen Nian: "I don't care about these 5 minutes, which teacher won't delay the class."

Fang Zhi: "Then if I don't procrastinate today, I will have to wait for you for 5 minutes?"

Chen Nian: "..."

Chen Nian got up, she stared fiercely at Fang Zhi with wide eyes and said, "I've been waiting for you for two hours, what's wrong with you waiting for five minutes!"

Fang Zhi looked at her and stopped in her tracks.

Chen Nian then stopped, feeling a little flustered after being quiet for more than five seconds: "Zhizhi, I'm joking with you, I won't keep you waiting, I've already arrived..."

Fang Zhi raised her hand and patted her on the head: "From now on, don't come early, I'll find you in the library after class."

Chen Nian: "That won't work, then I have to find you."

Fang Zhi: "I'm looking for you."

Chen Nian: "I'm looking for you, I'm looking for you, I'm willing to wait, I love to wait, my biggest hobby is waiting for people..."

What I said was against my will.

In fact, Chen Nian doesn't like to wait for others at all, she has an anxious personality, she will do whatever she thinks of immediately, and she will work hard to get what she wants.

She was willing to wait, and was willing to waste time, only Fang Zhizhu.

Wait for her to finish her work, wait for her to go home, wait for her to grow up.

Fortunately, in the process of waiting, she can always find some fun to come out.

The next day, Chen Nian sent Fang Zhi to class again, but when he arrived at the entrance of the photography shop, Zhu Dong stopped him.

Zhu Dong was holding a bag of ice cream in his hand. When he saw Chen Nian, he secretly stuffed one for her.

"I talked to my master and he said I could

touch the camera.If it is the client I am looking for, there is a commission, ten yuan for 100 yuan. "

Chen Nian: "Then you are looking for a client."

Zhu Dong: "Where can I find it?"

Chen Nian: "You go to the hospital first, the neonatology department, put your mouth on it sweetly, praise your sister, boast your brother, boast that your child is beautiful, take a children's photo album from your store... But in fact, the photos taken by your store Those photos, not very competitive."

Zhu Dong: "How can I be competitive?"

Chen Nian: "Give me five out of ten, and I'll tell you."

Without any hesitation, Zhu Dong raised his voice and said, "No problem!"

Chen Nian has countless commercial fast-selling templates in his head. Photos are just like songs and clothes. Each era has its own characteristics, and each generation has its preferences.

What's more, at this time, mobile phones with built-in high-definition cameras have not yet appeared, and business is doing well.

Chen Nian picked out one that was applicable at random, and explained it to Zhu Dong carefully.

Zhu Dong said: "There are no such props in the shop."

Chen Nian pursed his lips: "You can figure out how to do this yourself."

Zhu Dong: "I don't know if I can shoot the effect you mentioned."

Chen Nian: "The equipment in your store is okay, let's see if your master is okay. If your master is not okay, you can ask me again."

Zhu Dong nodded: "OK."

Chen Nian tried his best to reach out and patted him on the shoulder: "Follow your master, watch more and learn more, and get familiar with the camera first. Young people, you have to endure hardships to make money."

Zhu Dong couldn't help laughing: "Master Chen, you are also very young."

Chen Nian raised his eyebrows: "That's why I endure hardships and stand hard work. I stand on the main road in hot weather to preach and teach you."

Zhu Dong was very embarrassed: "There are customers in the store today, I..."

"I'm not going today," Chen Nian took off the ice cream and stuffed it into his mouth, "I'm very busy."

There is nowhere to stay.

With Chen Nian's clever mind and his eloquent mouth.

Wandering around the shopping mall with ice cream in his mouth, went to the library to read books seriously, and when he went back to pick up Fang Zhi, he was stopped by Zhu Dong again.

"I've bought the props." Zhu Dong whispered, "Master is not in the store tonight, so I'll try it myself."

"Bull." Chen Nian gave him a thumbs up.

I really didn't expect that she picked someone at random, and it turned out to be a treasure with amazing mobility.

cowry.

On the third day, Zhu Dong showed Chen Nian a sample of a doll as the subject, and Chen Nian made some comments.

On the fourth day, Zhu Dong showed Chen Nian a photo with a real child.

On the fifth day, Zhu Dong gave Chen Nian two yuan and fifty cents for his performance.

On the sixth day, there was no one in the store, so Chen Nian gave Zhu Dong a basic photography lesson.

On the seventh day, Teacher Fang Zhi was busy and postponed the class for a day. Chen Nian and her played happily at home all day.

On the eighth day, when Zhu Dong saw Chen Nian again, he grabbed her shoulder excitedly and insisted on leaving her a phone number.

"As for?" Chen Nian said, "I said I would come over."

Zhu Dong: "But if you don't come here, I won't be able to find you."

Chen Nian: "That means the fate of our two masters and apprentices is over. Don't worry, if I want to earn some popsicle money, I will still find you."

Zhu Dong: "You don't look like someone short of money."

Chen Nian was overjoyed: "The mouth is quite sweet."

She left a phone number for a convenience store near her home, and told Zhu Dong not to call if he had nothing to do, and to do his own thing.

Zhu Dong took out the money he had prepared a long time ago from his pocket: "Ten yuan."

"Wow, the business is good..." Chen Nian looked at the ticket and frowned, "But don't give it every day, otherwise I feel that I am very short of money."

The two agreed to settle the knot once a month. As for the amount of the knot, whether Zhu Dong will pay according to his real income depends on his conscience.

Anyway, the really valuable things are all in Chen Nian's head, whether she is willing to take them out or not depends entirely on her mood.

One month passed, and Fang Zhi's singing level improved by leaps and bounds. Chen Nian took the 150, two and eighty cents handed in by Zhu Dong, treated Fang Zhi to delicious food, and boasted to her that he would buy her a piano in the future.

Half a month later, the summer vacation is coming to an end.Chen Nian discussed with Zhu Dong the time and place to meet, Zhu Dong suddenly said, "I'm going to resign."

Chen Nian: "Huh?"

Zhu Dong's eyes were shining, full of youthful ambition: "I want to do it myself."

Chen Nian: "Don't be impulsive..."

Zhu Dong: "I've already borrowed the money to buy the equipment, Chen Nian, give me some advice, and I'll raise the share to [-]% for you."

"It's more difficult for you to start now, five points is enough, wait for you to get on the right track..." Chen Nian paused, smiling very

The ground owed Bian, "I'm going to charge twenty points."
