Good Luck Orphanage,
Gu Weijing walked into the door of the old church with brisk steps.
After nearly March,
Yangon has become a little hot, and the courtyard is still the same, except that there is an extra shirtless engineering captain talking to the female dean. Holding the drawings, discussing something.
With the help of the big businessman Chen Shenglin,
with the approval and Gu Weijing’s donation funds in place, the modernization will soon enter the construction stage.
Thirty thousand US dollars in Yangon is enough to keep a small construction team working hard for half a quarter.
The overall project is not complicated. In terms of electricity consumption, the orphanage will be connected to the urban power grid of the nearby factory area.
The amount of water renovation work will be larger,
But in the process of gradually laying underground pipes, the construction team studied the drawings of the old church and decided to first A set of water pumps and water purification devices were installed on the old wells for temporary living needs during this period.
In addition, insulation layers and facade reinforcements will be added to some rooms and masonry exterior walls of this century-old European-style building.
The only thing that can be called a pity is that,
By then, the old church painted by the female painter Carroll will never be seen again. The ancient and vicissitudes of the past History is gone.
"Goodbye, old church."
Gu Weijing stood in the yard,
Looking at the moss-covered and ivy-covered walls of the church yard, he gently He shook his head slightly.
He couldn't be said to be very sentimental, just a little sighing.
This is a choice that must be made in such a poor place. It is very helpless and very realistic.
Gu Weijing only had such a sad and popular literary style because he copied too many scenes of old churches in thunderstorms.
Everyone in the orphanage, from the children to the volunteers, to the headmistress and the construction team, was beaming with joy and did not care at all about the disappearance of the historical monuments.
If they had a choice, they would definitely want to completely bulldoze this historical building and build a modern, brightly lit orphanage.
The old church is a landscape to Gu Weijing, and a life to the children here.
Cultural relic protection is something that can only be considered after a full stomach.
Everything is developing in a good direction.
This old church, which has been frozen in time for two hundred years in the pre-modern society of the colonial era, will finally be restored in the next few years. Within a few months, we entered a modern society.
Gu Weijing stood in the yard for a moment, opened the virtual panel, and looked at the task prompts above.
Serial task fusion painting 13
The current task content is to complete one hundred character line drawings with different themes. Note that more than 20 works need to be rated as touching.
Current task progress
Character line drawing 100100
p>Feeling from the Heart 1920
Before the completion of this task, there is only one final line drawing sketch that needs to be evaluated as "Feeling from the Heart".
Gu Weijing looked at the time. He had a plan in his mind to complete this task today.
He thought for a moment, and instead of walking into the main hall of the church, he turned around and knocked on the door of the janitor's room.
"Uncle Alai, can we have a chat?"
Gu Weijing asked softly.
The gatehouse of the orphanage is a dilapidated brick and stone house. There is a camp bed in the back room. On the iron shelf of the camp bed are pots, pans and a kettle for boiling water.
The outhouse is a wooden table.
On the left side of the table is a lamp and a stack of little Jasmine’s homework books, while on the other side is a half-read book.
The lame uncle is tall and looks like a little giant sitting in the room.
He seems to be used to silence.
He didn't say anything after Gu Weijing entered the door. He just extended his hand and motioned for Gu Weijing to sit down casually, and continued to concentrate on the book in his hand.
Gu Weijing glanced at it and found that it turned out to be a copy of Joseph Conrad's Modernist Heart of Darkness, the original English version.
He secretly smacked his tongue.
As a former British colony,
Myanmar’s official languages include English and Burmese. However, in fact, only middle- and high-level government officials and people with higher education can use English proficiently. , the locals are still accustomed to speaking Burmese.
The illiteracy rate is not low either. There are people everywhere who don’t even know the letters of the English alphabet.
I am proficient in the original English novel, and can also read a boring masterpiece with polyphonic narrative with gusto.
Gu Weijing has always felt that Uncle Alai should be a very knowledgeable person.
No wonder there are so many people in the orphanage, and only the caretaker in front of me can find and recognize the archives and documents left by the missionaries in the colonial era.
"In the late 1990s, I was stationed in Tel Aviv by the Burmese military for training, so I can speak several foreign languages." Uncle Alai seemed to be able to read minds and knew what Gu Weijing was thinking without even turning his head. Lift, said lightly.
Tel Aviv, Israel, is one of the most professional high-end military training bases in the world.
Many small countries do not have the conditions and instructors to train special forces, so they spend huge sums of money to send elite officers to Tel Aviv for training.
It is known as the cradle of security teams serving dignitaries and top Forbes tycoons.
A media report once pointed out that the presidential security teams of 30% of countries in Central Africa and Latin America have received military training in Israel.
Gu Weijing was not surprised by this answer.
He had observed before that the cool guys from the VIP protection team who used to stand guard at his painting and calligraphy shop used the same American drill codes and tactical passwords as they did with the locals.The military habits are completely different.
"Brother Gu, why did you come to see me?" Uncle Alai asked.
"Two things, mainly I want to draw a pen drawing for you. In addition, if appropriate, I would like to hire you as my personal assistant."
Gu Weijing proposed Invited.
With his current income and daily schedule,
It is time for him to start considering hiring a formal personal assistant.
On the one hand, there are more and more things in his studio in the Lucky Orphanage, and he needs someone to tidy them up.
Now a construction team is about to move in. There are many people with many hands. Not to mention their own paintings, the painting tools of those art students are not cheap, so it is necessary to be on guard against others.
Gu Weijing also planned to install a small safe with a constant temperature function and put the painting of flowers sent to him by the artist Tang Ning in the studio at the orphanage.
In this way, when Professor Lin Tao teaches online, Gu Weijing doesn’t have to run around.
Although you have taken out commercial insurance, it is no joke to lose such a famous painting that can at least be exchanged for a Porsche sports car for more than 100,000 US dollars.
The other concern is Myo Aung Win.
The bad knee-bump at the campus gate gave Gu Weijing a memory. In fact, he has never been very afraid of serious underworld godfathers like Brother Hao.
A gangster who can really get ahead will do things in a measured and orderly manner.
People may be very ruthless, but they will care about the way things are done, public opinion, and international impact.
Latin American drug lords still spend all day building bridges and paving roads in their hometowns.
Brother Hao,
Whether it is Mr. Cao behind Gu Weijing, an internationally renowned artist like Uncle Sakai, or Boss Chen, a prominent figure in Yangon, who If you speak for yourself, you should be able to give Brother Hao some face and scruples when necessary.
Even during the Spring Festival, when the bald man came to find a powerless and poor student like himself, everyone always pulled each other within a certain range, and the overall attitude was to be gentle.
As long as he can keep his heart, it is nothing more than resisting temptation.
If it weren't for this confidence, Gu Weijing and his family would have gone abroad overnight, why would they be waiting for graduation.
In street fights, those who can hack people to death are often young and Dangerous young men who have just debuted.
It is people like Miao Angwen who are stupid and young people who make people worry.
Gu Weijing even thought of the shooting he had seen in front of Dulwich College.
Thinking about the time, he really had to suspect that it was the declaration of surrender or something that Miao Angwin handed in after joining Brother Hao's gang.
Even if Miao Aung Win is not the gunman, he is very likely to be involved in this kind of street killing case.
People who have just been stained with blood can do anything.
I really want to be shot again inexplicably at the school gate, or stabbed in the stomach by a bad gangster.A knife or something, but he didn't even cry.
Whether it’s looking at the studio or picking myself up at the school gate after school.
Among the people Gu Weijing knew, Uncle Alai was a very good choice.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
According to Kou Kou’s father, Uncle Alai was once the founder of a security force for heads of state and dignitaries.
So what if the leg is a little lame,
it is more than enough to scare some street gangsters and protect your own safety.
"You want me to do things for you"
Uncle Alai frowned, put down his book, and looked at the middle school student in front of him, as if he was examining him.
"Jasmine is indeed close to you. I also know that your family may have a lot of money, but you want me to work hard for you and be your little brother."
Uncle Alai's tone There was even some disdain and some ridicule.
"Brother Gu, I have always liked you, so I won't say any unpleasant words. Please come back."
Who is he.
When he was engaged in anti-narcotics in the primeval jungle of the Golden Triangle, Khun Sa's armed forces were still using heavy artillery against the Myanmar government. He was a real figure who emerged from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
The people he later served and defended were either heads of state or political dignitaries.
The general attained the rank of lieutenant colonel with real power at the age of 40, and he is only one step away from the real power class of the military.
What if people like Uncle Alai were kicked out by the army?
He stayed in the orphanage to look after the gate, just because he felt discouraged by his past life. That’s all.
In a chaotic place like Myanmar, there are some big bosses who are not short of money, owners of private jade mines who want to recruit him as a bodyguard, or underworld bosses who want ruthless people like him to be their pawns.
As long as he is willing, a gangster godfather like Brother Hao can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to recruit him without even blinking an eyebrow.
Uncle Alai is disdainful of the former, but unwilling to do the latter.
Now a middle school student with a slightly childish look on his face ran up to him and insisted that he do something for him.
If it weren’t for the fact that little girl Jasmine really liked this guy.
This middle school student also has undisguised patience and kindness towards the children in the orphanage.
Uncle Alai is not even interested in talking to him.
"Not a younger brother, but a personal assistant."
Gu Weijing corrected the gatekeeper's words, "And please forgive me, I have to make sure that your character meets my standards. Only then will I hire you."
Uncle Alai almost laughed out loud at this ignorant boy.
Gu Weijing, however, looked serious. He took out a newspaper that was clipped to his sketch pad and handed it to Uncle Alai.
National hero is subject to anti-corruption investigation for misappropriating tens of billions of kyats in public fundsThe headline on the front page of a Chinese newspaper read in large characters.
After hearing that Father Kou Kou mentioned the origin of Uncle Alai, he went to the archives and looked through old newspapers. Sure enough, he found relevant clues in a Myanmar Mirror newspaper many years ago. .
"The photo should be of you, so I can explain it."
Uncle Alai asked funnyly, "You don't believe the Mirror report"
"I don't think that an uncle who has been looking at the gate of an orphanage for so many years in a calm and calm manner will be a embezzler worth tens of billions of kyats."
Uncle Alai seems to be because of Gu Weijing The answer was touched for a moment and he tilted his head.
"Then how do you know I won't lie to you?"
"As long as you tell your story."
Gu Weijing smiled and sat down On the small chair where Jasmine used to do her homework at night, she took out sketch paper and pens.
Every task in the system is very interesting.
It is not just a simple requirement to complete a special goal.
In the process of completing this goal, Gu Weijing always learns a lot.
For example, Caifeng.
Collecting style is something that every painter must learn.
No matter how powerful a master is, he can only achieve pure technical perfection by honing his painting skills and brush proficiency.
I want my paintings to possess the last bit of elusive soul.
Collecting styles in actual scenes and communicating spiritually with the scenery and models are indispensable processes.
Even the slightest movement of the soul is more important than the skill of the pen tip.
In order to pursue this sense of reality in their works of art, painters of the critical realism school in Tsarist Russia ate and lived with the trackers when they painted trackers on the Volga River, and spent a lot of money on painting serfs. For a whole ten years, I chatted with the servants who had been slaves for generations in the freezing Russian aristocratic manor.
This is why the paintings of the critical realism school can often beat the shit out of their art enemies, the academic painters of the Tsarist Russian Art Academy who were the mainstream of Russian oil painting at that time, with their works reason.
In addition to the burning sympathy of these painters for the suffering compatriots in Tsarist Russia.
The creative works of these painters also have more soul.
They can reflect the inner true emotions of the oil painting subjects from the stories they hear in the collection and conversation. The works they wrote in turn made them great.
When you paint for kings, emperors, or nobles who have many things to do, they neither bother to share their inner stories with you nor have the free time to chat with you all afternoon.
In order to achieve the goal of these twenty line drawing illustrations that achieve feelings.
Gu Weijing’s sensitivity during the interview has increased a lot.
If Mr. Sloth taught him how to capture characters from fictional works of art.
Then, the line drawing illustrations he drew for Jasmine, Sermon, and even Miss Sakai gradually taught Gu Weijing how to capture the emotions of models in life.
"My paintings will tell me the answer."
Gu Weijing raised his pen and said with a smile. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
