536 Artists
These houses were empty, so why not make use of them?
The main reason was that there was no need to pay rent there, so the place had become a paradise for artists.
They believed that art was above everything else, so they didn’t care much about money. In fact, their so-called art couldn’t be recognized by the market and had almost no liquidity.
Poor people always needed to find excuses to comfort themselves, or else life would be less joyful.
After getting off the car, Chu Ning walked towards the so-called Happy Village. After walking for a while, she saw a group of people gathered in an empty space. There were men and women, but many men had long hair. Chu Ning felt that she could not really appreciate their trendy outfits.
They sat on the ground in the shade of a huge tree. The ground was papered with newspapers and covered with empty beer bottles. Beside them were musical instruments and even a complete set of drums.
These people were discussing music.
“Oh? Little Chu Yuen, have you thought it through and decided to join us?” A young woman wearing ripped jeans and whose makeup could only be described as horrifying asked, her eyes lighting up when she saw Chu Yuen.
“Can’t you see that there’s a great beauty beside him? Hey, Stunning Beauty. This is the new nickname I’m giving you. If you want to join us, you have to have a catchy name. This nickname suits you very well,” a wandering artist said enthusiastically when he saw Chu Ning.
“Stunning Beauty, you need to change your image. Your old-fashioned clothes don’t match our team’s style,” another wandering artist added with a strange expression.
Chu Yuen shook his head and pointed at Chu Ning. “I’m not here to join you, and neither is she.”
“Then why are you here?” a wandering artist holding a guitar asked in confusion.
“What a pity. Stunning Beauty doesn’t belong here. I’m a little heartbroken,” another person immediately put on a sad expression. He picked up a beer bottle and put it to his mouth. Unfortunately, the beer bottle was already empty.
“I’m here to have a look at and to admire the lifestyle of artists,” Chu Ning said, going against her conscience.
If the Old Fang she met before was pitiful, then she could only evaluate these people before her as being deserving of their status.
They pursued spiritual wealth but neglected material things. This was simply deceiving themselves.
“My name is Chu Ning,” Chu Ning spoke again.
“My name is Zhang Fa, and my nickname is Carbon-based Life. His name is Li Lian, and this is Hibiscus. He…” After hearing Chu Ning’s self-introduction, a wandering artist enthusiastically introduced himself and the people around him.
Chu Ning listened to their odd nicknames and really could not understand their thoughts.
“No wonder they can become artists while I’m just an ordinary person.” Chu Ning sighed to herself. She felt that it was still better to be an ordinary person.
“You can do whatever you want.” Chu Ning spread her hands. She felt that it was not easy to reason with such a delusional person.
Her purpose for coming was very clear, so even if she was not interested in their art, she still had to try to understand it.
“Crazy Stone, you are really talented! I think some of the popular singers who are active in the music industry are much worse than you.”
“Brother Stone is amazing. We’re humbled!”
“The key is that he has a unique understanding of musicality. We always miss the main point.”
“This is the difference between a genius and an ordinary person!”
Chu Ning looked at these people who were looking fanatically at the wandering artist called Crazy Stone. For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.
The thought suddenly came to Chu Ning’s mind, “Maybe he really is talented, but I don’t know it?”
With a trace of anticipation, Chu Ning silently watched Crazy Stone constantly tune the guitar. It looked very realistic.
Chu Yuen, who was standing at the side, had long since distanced himself. He even covered his ears and looked at Chu Ning gloatingly.
