Chapter 339: Reading Three Thousand Volumes of Flowers

The tea trickles down and pours into the cup.

A very thin layer of water vapor condensed on the lenses of Lao Yang's glasses. It doesn't affect his vision, but it just covers the twinkling eyes behind his lenses.

Except for the ripples and trembling of the tea.

No one can know the turmoil in Lao Yang's mood at this moment.

The arrogant and disdainful look in Tangning's eyes when facing the interview camera is still vivid in my mind. Lao Yang understood that the female artist said that her painting of hundreds of flowers was there so that mediocre people who were incapable of recognizing themselves could try to imitate the painting.

This is not an artistic competition or an examination of younger generations.

"When I painted this painting, I was only twenty years old, and I was just a young painter like you."

Listen.

That’s a lot to say.

Tang Ning just wanted Gu Weijing to get away quickly and smoothly after the reality of his relationship.

Female artists want to attack each other and crush each other.

Don’t compete again fifty years later.

Tang Ning did not want to take any risks at all, and was prepared to use the most secure and foolproof method. When the gap between the two of her was the largest, both psychologically and technically, she would leave a lasting impact on Gu Weijing. psychological shadow.

Relationships are really weird things.

Obviously a person is saying the most disdainful and contemptuous words, but deep down in his heart he is wary of this junior, extremely wary.

In my impression, Tang Ning wore big sunglasses. During the limited few times she spent time with him in private to talk about things, she looked up at the sparrows passing by outside the window more often than she looked at him.

In terms of dealing with people, Lin Tao is a bit old-fashioned, while Liu Ziming is the kind of man who has read a thousand sails and enjoyed all the beautiful things in the world.

As for Tangning, who was the youngest, she exuded a commanding aura that was even stronger than that of her teacher Cao Xuan.

After Cao Xuan reached his old age, he returned to his original nature. Most of the time, he gave outsiders the impression that he was a hale and hearty little old man with a dry body.

The female disciple he brought out with one hand was like a polished and gleaming sword.

The age of forty is the pinnacle of a painter's career, a perfect combination of physical strength and mentality.

She became famous too early, her teacher was too hard, and her net worth was too high.

The entire career has been one of sparks and lightning, destroying the confidence of any artistic genius who was unfortunate enough to be born in the same era as her.

ouistroy, the equally famous artistic duo in North America, is a disciple of the Pop masters.

In the early 2000s, when Tangning first became famous, during a TV interview, she appeared confused several times when the host mentioned her name and asked who she was.

This was interpreted by art critics in the United States as "This Asian girl is pretending to be stupid and takes the initiative to challengething. " caused a controversy.

That critic must not know Tangning personally.

Otherwise he would have known.

She probably really doesn't play that kind of game. A common person in the film and television industry who plays tricks to gain traffic. Tang Ning probably didn't care who Ouistroy was in the past twenty years.

The pride in her heart from being invincible among her peers, she simply ignored the people she looked down upon and didn't even bother to remember their names.

Tang Ning was definitely not an easy person to get along with. But she was very proud.

Even though the two of them were of similar worth at the time, their resumes, backgrounds, and pasts were very similar on paper.

I want to look down on you. He really looks down on you and doesn't even pay any attention to you.

Old Yang is suspicious. He has known Tang Ning for so many years. The other person might not be able to call her by her full name even now.

The only person that Tang Ning truly admires and admires in her life is probably her teacher Cao Xuan.

That's why Tang Ning couldn't remember Ouistroy twenty years ago, and now he can't remember Gu Weijing because of his senior brother Lin Tao. She mentioned the name casually a few times, but she firmly remembered it, and would crush the other person to death as soon as she seized the opportunity. Every sentence that seemed to be an understatement on the surface may have been carefully thought out, and every sentence would fall into his heart.

Cao Xuan was willing to make a bet with Gu Weijing about the Lion City Biennale. When Lin Tao heard about it for the first time, he just thought it was a joke. The old man pointed to the stars in the sky to encourage the young people.

Tang Ning really cares about it.

The idea of ​​participating in the exhibition and the creative ideas are the biggest secrets of the painter.

In front of the media cameras in public. If you reveal your carefully prepared ideas for the exhibition in advance, it will be easy for the audience to come to their senses if you do such a thing. You may think this behavior is a bit "weird".

You can't really call Tang Ning "despicable".

But even if they are used as guidance, in a strict sense, this is really a bad thing.

It will definitely have no good impact on Tangning's reputation.

Even some of her artist friends may feel that her handling of the situation is a bit off. "Not too particular" or even "too particular"

From now on, there is an additional layer of caution.

It is possible that she will not be invited to his studio again.

Tang Ning is a jade worth tens of millions, and Gu Weijing is just a piece of rubbish by the Yangon River.

The two of them.There is a huge status gap between individuals. If she really thinks that Gu Weijing's work is a joke that cannot be put on the stage, why would she do such a loss-making business that hurts the enemy by a thousand and loses herself by eight hundred.

Lao Cao is among several apprentices.

Probably only Tang Ning truly believed that since the teacher was willing to bet, then this young man must really have hope of winning an award at the Singapore Art Exhibition.

No matter how careless things are, she will still do them.

Now that the reputation is slightly damaged, it is much more cost-effective than a few months later when the family has an additional junior disciple and the title of closed disciple is taken away by others.

"But some people are unreasonable."

Old Yang put the teapot aside.

It seems that this most foolproof method is also on the verge of overturning.

Old Yang looked strange.

Deep in the heart, the balance of choice between Tang Ning and Gu Weijing was tilted. The moment they saw this picture of wisteria flowers, there was an almost undetectable wavering at the two ends with a huge difference in weight. .

"Sweet-tongued, you have learned some tricks."

Lao Cao picked up the small stack of photos in his hand, looked at them one by one, and took a sip from Lao Yang. The tea that came over seemed to sense something from the assistant's actions, and he raised his eyebrows slightly.

"No, no, I don't quite understand."

Old Yang immediately smiled and shook his head.

He did not share these inner thoughts with his old employer.

As for Mr. Cao’s disciple, whether he can draw or not, it is not his assistant’s turn to express his opinion in front of Mr. Cao.

Just a painting that makes Lao Yang's eyes brighten may not be able to explain too much. Ms. Tangning becoming the successor of the old man is also a general trend and something that the entire art world is looking forward to.

Old Yang only knows two things.

First, when Mr. Cao sees this painting, he should not be angry no matter what, and will probably agree to accept the painting.

Secondly, Lao Yang did not have an accurate idea of ​​what kind of painter would be the template for a painting agent's "dream lover".

Now Gu Weijing sent this painting.

Suddenly, he understood a little bit how Mr. Cao Xuan felt when he was working on the Shwedagon Pagoda project.

The enemy

It’s this smell

Damn it, it’s the smell of Brother Gu

This kind of obscure background, this kind of god Regardless of his technical talent, this is the jade cabbage that grows in the loess soil. Every piece of this uncut jade is the gold vein that the agent dreams of.

I don’t know if I have such good luck.

If he encounters such an example when he becomes an agent in the future, he will pounce on him with all his teeth and claws, and take the cabbage back to his home to feed it. If other agents dared to stretch out their claws, Lao Yang would definitely bite the big pig hooves of those coquettish bitches and say nothing to stop them.

"Not good."

Huh

Lao Yang was still lost in thought when he suddenly heard Lao Cao's critical voice.

Cao Xuan stared at the photo in his hand, flicked his fingertips on Gu Weijing's withdrawal, and shook his head dissatisfied, "It's like Bai Huakui, who is called the birthday cup every year. What does this say?" Yeah, I want a bodyless body, a boneless body, a soft, fat pig."

When the oil painter was painting his girlfriend's lover.

There are often painters who use paint to sign "Ah, my eternal love" and "Ah, my muse" in the blank corners.

However, unless the auction house authenticates the authenticity, no one will be interested in studying these signatures when appreciating oil paintings.

Traditional Chinese painting, calligraphy and painting are integrated.

Prefaces, postscripts, signatures, tributes, collection reflections, and poems attached by descendants are also part of the artistic attainments of paintings, and they account for a large proportion.

Anyone who has seen paintings in museums knows that in some ancient paintings, the main body of the painting is very small, but what really takes up the space is the words and insights of various literati who follow it.

At the same time, the calligraphy and painting model is fortunate to have inscriptions by Mi Fu and Dong Qichang on it. The artistic appreciation value of a few words is much higher than the painting itself.

The other way around.

This is also the reason why Qianlong was criticized so much. This guy is the biggest collector in human history. It's not that good, but it was criticized by scholars for destroying cultural relics.

To be fair.

The level of Qianlong's poetry is really not that good, it is artificial, but the handwriting is actually very good, at least it is not unsightly, but there is a gap compared with the limited Xingkai masters.

Gu Weijing’s calligraphy is very poor.

Lao Yang Ting professionally cropped and enlarged the header and main body of the painting, as well as every detail, and printed them into photos for the convenience of Mr. Wang's appreciation.

The top photo in Cao Xuan’s hand is the message Gu Weijing wrote to Mr. Cao.

Gu Weijing has also practiced calligraphy, and it is not ugly to look at.

You can get a lot of likes by taking photos and posting them on WeChat, but in the eyes of professionals, you haven’t even started.

The threshold for calligraphy appreciation is much higher than that of painting.

People who do not have sufficient cultural literacy do not even understand what is considered a standard of beauty.

Those who are good at penmanship have many bones, those who are not good at penmanship have more flesh. Those who have more bones and less flesh are called sinewers, and those who have more flesh and less bones are called ink pigs.

Those who are strong and have strong tendons are holy; those who are weak and have no tendons are sick.

The only thing that Gu Weijing’s ink mark has in common with the “Qiongpa Jieyu” in Tangning’s Hundred Flowers Picture is that they both look like calligraphy.

Put it in the minds of professionals like Cao Xuan.

His words can be written a thousand times, but they are not as pleasing to the eye as Xiao Ning's single word.

Cao Xuan frownedThe head said to Lao Yang, "Tell Gu Weijing later and ask him to practice calligraphy. If he writes this bad calligraphy again in the future, don't give it to me. I find it embarrassing and unpleasant."

A sharp mouth and a tofu heart.

As Cao Xuan said this, he felt a little comfortable when he saw this sentence in his heart: "It's like Bai Huakui, who is called the longevity cup every year."

No matter how indifferent the old people are about life and death, they are still happy to see auspicious words about health and longevity.

What a pity.

What’s the use of talking, this kid, his heart is not on the right path.

He put his thoughts on studying auspicious words and focused on being down-to-earth and practicing painting. Cao Xuan was happy even without saying these words.

If you don’t speak politely and study these speculative and flattering words all day long, even if you are lucky enough to win an award at the Lion City Biennale for your innovative ideas, the old man will not bother to take a second look.

Read this verse.

Mr. Cao felt that the inscription was a bit unsightly, so he threw it aside, replaced it with a second photo, and began to look at the wisteria flowers painted by Wei Jing.

"Oh, young people nowadays, did I see it wrong at first?"

It was just a moment.

Mr. Cao's back straightened quietly, and his pupils shrank sharply.

Lao Yang has been quietly paying attention to Mr. Cao's reaction, his heartbeat is racing, and he has a sense of anticipation that he is about to see the old man showing a contrasting and cute expression that he has never seen before.

The old gentleman used to have an air of immortality, just like a walking Bodhisattva.

It is extremely difficult to see him lose his composure. The works of the young female apprentice have been sold for hundreds of millions in Xiangjiang, and Cao Xuan also looks calm and unmoved.

Even the time I went to bed at night was the same as before. I didn’t make the call until I was free at noon the next day.

The old man is very similar to Gu Weijing.

When I was young, I was a person who came from the chaotic era. Back then, I was also shot in the head with a gun by a gangster from the Youth Gang. I witnessed people from Chaotian Palace on Babao Street running rampant and killing progressive people in the street.

The cultivation of a state of mind that is calm and calm has reached the state of transformation.

But

Even the old man really didn’t expect that he could see such a painting here and now.

Cao Xuan has generally maintained calm, but the study room is too quiet, and Lao Yang is always paying attention to observing his employer's reaction.

So.

He clearly really heard it, Mr. Cao just gasped.

After reading three thousand volumes of flowers, you will know the wind and rain and the sunshine.

Literati who have seen many Chinese paintings of flowers, birds and landscapes can tell the climate and humidity conditions of the style copied by the painter just from the posture of a flower and leaf.

Cao Xuan's height at the peak of art is much higher than that of his assistant Lao Yang, and he can see more things at a glance.

The impact will be even greater. Please remember to collectHidden, the latest and fastest website for free reading without anti-theft
