"Okay, I understand. I wish our new films will be successful..."

…

After attending the party here, Ronald ran to attend the third party. Now that he was famous, he would send invitations to many celebrity parties. Ronald declined all the ones he could shirk, except those who were good friends or special people. Only go to important gatherings.

Today is the Christmas holiday. Since it is out, I will participate in one more, which will be more efficient.

"Ronald..." The host of the banquet, record company owner, David Geffen came up to greet Ronald.

"Hello David..." Ronald hugged him and said hello.

Geffen wore a white turtleneck sweater, CK jeans and sneakers. This party was neither a formal party like George's nor a relaxed private party for the director, but another party full of artistic flavor.

The big house is filled with all kinds of art. In front of one wall, there are many paintings with strange colors, which are the modern art works that David Geffen wants to promote.

"Look at how infinitely creative this modern artist is, you know? This was made by the painter using silk screen printing. He broke the traditional rules of the game, incorporated pop culture and created the ambiguity of art to form waves. The ironic meaning of pop art.”

Geffen enthusiastically introduced his collection to Ronald. He now has an extensive collection of works by many modern artists. The recently deceased Andy Warhol is an artist that his art business will focus on in the next step.

"Printed?" Ronald looked at the strange paintings, many of which were quadruple works. Many of Warhol's works were based on Hollywood female stars. A sickly pink like calamine lotion, or a sickly pale green, were made into four versions, and then put together as a group of works.

The so-called pop art is so simple that a high school student can create it after knowing the method.

"He broke the tradition that artists need a pair of highly skilled hands. His works are anti-traditional. Art is not monopolized by a few people, but belongs to the masses." David Geffen continued to introduce Ronald to modern art. The truth is, recently there have been many rumors about Ronald making money in the securities market. This new money class is exactly the target of his art business.

"He created this all by himself?" Ronald looked at two rows of Marilyn Monroe portrait headbands. They obviously made a mold, then used different paints, and asked someone to screen-print them.

And the mold is also drawn based on Monroe's famous head photo. Isn't it artistically difficult? Put this thing in the frame on the screen printing machine, roll it back and forth with a roller, and you can create it in three seconds.

One piece."

"Whether an artist actually uses his own hands to create a work, the act itself is no longer a key factor in determining the authenticity of a work; and this conceptual revolution in artistic execution is what made the art of the twentieth century

The fundamental reason why it is no longer the same as all art before it.”

David Geffen knew that Ronald had seen through the trick behind the work, so he quickly remedied it and taught Ronald the difference between the so-called modern art and traditional classical art. Then he whispered in Ronald's ear: "Wo

The auction of Hall's works will be held in New York next week, and now is a good time to collect, as his works have great potential for appreciation."

Then Geffen patted Ronald on the back and went to greet other guests.

"It's obviously just a printed matter," Ronald couldn't understand and complained to a set of portraits of Monroe.

"These are prints. I bought several of them. They are cheap anyway, who knows if they will appreciate in value?" A man next to him dressed like a rock star answered Ronald's words.

"Ah, Mr. Bowie." Ronald took a look. Isn't this the actor in Bogdanovich's new film, rock star David Bowie?

"Call me David, you're Ronald, I heard Geffen said you're coming back." As he spoke, David Bowie patted his leather jacket around and looked for cigarettes in his pockets.

"I have Lasker here, do you smoke it?" Ronald handed over the Lasker cigarette that the prop master of "Working Girl" gave him.

"Ah, thank you, I feel bad without anything." Bowie opened the package happily, got one for himself and Ronald, and lit it with a lighter.

"Well...it feels good." Ronald was puffing away smoke with David Bowie in the corner.

"I heard that you are going to star in Bogdanovich's new film?" Ronald asked.

"Ah, yes, they filmed in Florida. The sunshine there is suitable for me." Bowie's teeth and fingers were all yellow from cigarette smoke, and he looked like an old smoker. Ronald and he were smoking.
