Chapter 427 The End of the Annual Meeting (Part 1)

Gu Weijing also smiled sheepishly.

The layout is small.

It’s really not on the table.

Not only is it inferior to Cao Xuan’s feelings about his family, country and nation when he was a child, but it is also reflected in the dirt by Mr. Cao’s magnanimity and magnanimity.

"Please don't laugh at him, everyone."

"I think this answer is very good, really very good. There is no need to laugh at it."

The old man said seriously on the stage, "Let your family live a good life, and let the expectations of the people you love not be disappointed. Isn't this a dream worthy of respect and a goal that drives people forward?"

"I even think that this is a very brave answer."

"The answer I gave may be more courageous than when I was in front of the bed and wanted to show that the teacher felt that I was worthy of entrusting him to me." Honesty is also more courageous.”

Those are all cold names in art textbooks and materials that need to be memorized for art history exams.

In their memories, these names are still alive, real people with warmth, people who can laugh and curse.

There was a satirical Dutch joke in the 1990s that the last person to see Van Gogh died just last Wednesday.

The guests couldn’t help but have glowing eyes.

“So that day, after I hung up the phone, I thought about our conversation and decided what we should do in today’s speech, how can we truly become a great artist and live the life we ​​want. "Life"

It's like listening to Buffett teach everyone how to invest.

I am willing to teach everyone in the world my professional experience and the essence of an old cat climbing a tree without asking for anything in return.

"Contrary to Miss Irina just now, I have always been very sorry, because I did not make up these words, and of course it was not said by Zweig. Zweig is a first-class biographer and playwright. , but in terms of artistic attainments, they are probably not as good as mine.”

The entire ups and downs of modern art history have been condensed into a few words.

The whole place was silent.

Sometimes, art has a long history.

These life experiences are the most valuable assets in their careers.

Probably there are only old gods who have reached this age.

But in fact, for a centenarian like Cao Xuan, the difference is just one or two generations.

People may subconsciously think that Picasso has been dead for hundreds of years.

Van Gogh and Repin could only be considered contemporaries of Leo Tolstoy during the Xianfeng era of the Eastern Xia and Qing dynasties, or during the Russian Empire.

“This is a very arrogant thing to say, it goes straight to the source.”

Everyone in the neighborhood, including the neighbor on the street corner and the owner of the bakery next door, even if they were still babies learning to talk at the time, wanted to be with them. This great painter got involved.

Sometimes, human artThe history is also very short.

Mr. Cao pondered for a moment.

So a chicken drowned in the Pacific Ocean. After everyone drank two sips of sea water, they said they had drunk chicken soup.

So in the old gentleman’s narration.

"I am talking to him and to every audience in front of the live broadcast camera."

Even Picasso is a very distant name.

For a long time, until almost the 21st century, there would be centenarians and old ladies on TV, claiming that they had a relationship with Van Gogh when they were children.

The whole place was filled with a lively atmosphere, and Anna pursed her lips slightly.

The contract for Buffett’s US$19 million charity dinner in 2022 also strictly stipulates that no questions related to stock market investment can be asked.

The little old man nodded proudly, then shook his head sadly.

The weight of the times is overwhelming.

Every artist who has reached Cao Xuan’s position has a career full of legendary stories.

You can listen to Cao Xuan teach everyone how to become a great painter.

On the other hand, it also explains from the side.

Cao Xuan smiled, as if he could see through the deepest desires of every guest present.

"Even among the guests present, most of them have become famous and have become great painters in the eyes of the world, but my life experience may still bring you some new experiences."

"The so-called achievement of an artist is nothing but the reward of destiny after choosing to live a tenacious life and keep learning."

Gu Weijing included 99% of the guests present. heart.

"This was said by Ilya Yefimovich Repin. My teacher once had a relationship with Repin."

This is because, After Van Gogh became famous, the influence of celebrity effect.

There is no essential difference between Repin and Van Gogh, Leonardo da Vinci and Wang Xizhi, even for post-2000 art students of Gu Weijing’s age.

"What is art? This sentence has been asked a lot today. Let me give my own answer. I can't answer what art is, but I should know some insider information about the artist group."

p>

The old man teased.

“My teacher, together with Xu Beihong, Lin Fengmian and other gentlemen, tried to introduce Western-style realism line structure into traditional Chinese painting, and raised funds to open modern art schools in Suzhou and Peiping. College of Education. For this reason, he made a special trip to visit Repin in the 1920s. In my impression, the Repin described by the teacher was an old painter with a thick beard, deep eyes, and strong knuckles. ."

"But my teacher didn't tell me this."

Cao Xuan's eyes were as childish as a child's.

“I’m ashamed to say that this was when I was learning to play games.Got it. ”

Gagosian rubbed his ears vigorously, as if he felt he was hearing hallucinations.

The old man on the stage just now was really talking about computer games

It was still some kind of profound art study, which the old gentleman regarded as a game in his spare time

It was not only Gagosian who was shocked, but also many people in the venue.

Even Gu Weijing was surprised.

Video games have never been an unfamiliar field to the contemporary art industry.

On the contrary.

The two industries are much closer than most people think.

Game companies have solved a lot of employment problems for art students.

Even the Royal Family. For ordinary art students in the four major art academies, the goal of becoming a painter is too far away and they are likely to starve to death.

However, employment opportunities in traditional layout design and construction engineering are limited. /p>

Game companies are a very good career direction for today's art students.

Ms. Sandnu once gave them a step-by-step career plan.

After careful analysis, Mona felt that the Internet industry was the easiest to make money among several relatively realistic life choices.

She thought they should study animation design together in college.

After graduation, I hope that Gu Weijing will go to a game company for an interview, if he can get an offer from a big company like Ubisoft, EA, or Penguin.

Whether he is a concept artist or a original artist.

Work steadily for five to ten years

Be able to be a project manager in the art department in an important branch in Dongxia, the United States, or Singapore. As a team leader, you can get an annual salary of more than 100,000 US dollars in these generous game companies.

You can live a relatively decent and prosperous life, barely enough to be considered a half-earner.

p>

However.

This is the European Art Annual Conference, the vane of the development of Western art

In the minds of these exhibitors, each one has their eyes high.

Who doesn’t have an indescribable sense of self-superiority

Tian is the boss and I am the second child

Even cartoonists are considered to be "fooling children" and drawing illustrations. It's a "taxi driver who drives for others", and the game is completely unattractive.

Suddenly, the old master Cao Xuan mentioned it.

“Rebin said that art comes from continuous learning. We have an old saying in Eastern Xia, live until you grow old and learn. Those who cannot keep up with the times will be abandoned by the times. This is true of people, and so is the style of art. I hate being that kind of person who thinks that the world is changing and people's hearts are not as good as they used to be. An old painter who sits on a rocking chair all day long and brags to young people about his golden age and prosperous years. I am very old, but not too old to learn new things.The years when you can only survive by remembering. "

Cao Xuan doesn't think there is anything wrong with him being able to play games at his age.

"I learned to go to the theater when I was 15 years old. I learned to drive when I was 21 years old, how to swim when I was 32 years old, how to knit sweaters when I was 74 years old, and started to try skiing when I was 79 years old. When I was 81 years old, I started learning Greek for original art documents. Of course, this was not very successful. I was indeed too old to learn a new language. Before I came to attend this art annual meeting, I had just participated in the filming of my first campus short film. ”

“Only by truly understanding the voice of the times and understanding people’s lives can we draw works that reflect the pulse of the times. I ask my disciples to carry notebooks with them to record the knowledge that may be used in painting and all aspects of life that can be captured by themselves. And I myself always have to learn new things. ”

“Playing games is something I learned five years ago. I never limit myself. I think playing Go, chess or bridge is a pastime that suits my status. ”

Different from the astonishment of people in the venue.

The response in the online comment area was very enthusiastic. People thought this old man was really cute.

It’s so down-to-earth.

“Wow, it’s so interesting that Mr. Cao Xuan is so fashionable. ”

“Mr. Cao doesn’t have a high rank in the league. I can help him fly.” I'll be satisfied if I can add a friend."

"1"

"At my age, I can't play such an intense game. Being able to play mahjong, flip poker, and play continuously online is already amazing. My grandpa was obsessed with playing. ”

“Five years ago, I once caught a student secretly playing games on an IAD in class. I gave him a chance to submit a note explaining this behavior in the next class, otherwise class points would be deducted. The kid wrote a eloquent essay of a thousand words. "

Cao Xuan raised his eyebrows.

"It's a pity. I guess he didn't succeed in convincing me. "

The old man showed the face of a harsh class teacher who caught you playing games in class, "So I can only give him a C for his class performance." I am a very strict teacher. ”

bursts of laughter.

“But I still remember the ninth art he described from his paper, and I also know that he is working on a tablet The game I play on the Internet is used to learn about the cultural and artistic context of various countries. It is a strategy game called Civilization. ”

“It is a historical development game. Each player can play the role of a national leader, Qin Shihuang, Peter the Great, Saladin, Roosevelt and other celebrities, from the Stone Age to the universe, competing to become the leader of the world. In the meantime, you can summon artists like Leonardo da Vinci, Mozart, or Repin to assist in the development of your civilization and obtain higher scores. ”

Mr. Cao sounds like he really likes that game and is studying it intensively.

“I asked my assistant to help me download this game on my computer. It has accumulated 226 hours of total game time. For an old man with mild cataracts, this is already played. A lot. The game itself is very interesting. That famous quote from Repin was the prompt when I recruited Mr. Repin. More importantly, I found "Playing this." The process of playing a game is like the process of becoming a great artist step by step."

Cao Xuan's voice paused.

“Sometimes you will succeed, sometimes your empire will be destroyed by war, and the key great men you want to recruit will be snatched away by your opponents. Sometimes, it is just bad luck, floods, droughts, Sandstorms, bushfires, or simply volcanic eruptions, sea levels rise, and you lose the game."

Netizens discussed it even more happily.

“Look at this old man, he can still gain insights into life even by playing a game. I have to say that he was born to eat this kind of rice.”

“Civilized One It seems like I'm not the only one who stays up late playing games."

"From now on, my mother can no longer blame me for playing games. I learned from Mr. Cao. , the process of playing the game is the process of becoming a great artist. Maybe, just by playing, I will become a great painter worth billions by myself."

"You. Do you want to learn art? I’m embarrassed to tell you.”

Gagosian scratched his nose and turned his head.

"Hey, have you ever played this civilization?"

"No, I hardly play games. My son is very addicted. But since Mr. Cao said, artists can understand Life insights, I may come to play next. ”

cdx’s main gallery interface.

"Me too. I probably guessed what Mr. Cao was talking about. Haha, the civilized production company is making a lot of money now. At Mr. Cao's level, if he endorses luxury goods, he will have to pay thousands "Ten thousand dollars."

"At least this amount. Murakami's co-branding revenue starts at 20 million, and Cao Xuan will not pay less than that." Ms. Lison nodded slightly.

"I have played a total of sixteen standard-difficulty games so far. I have lost eleven games, won two diplomatic victory games, and won three cultural victory games."

Cao The old man said with a smile, "It's a pity. Although there is an option for cultural victory in the game. But the bottom line is still to use one's own influence to eliminate the influence of other countries. You fight for me, eat you, subvert you, make me stronger and full of aggression. That's the way it is. Instead of allowing me to do it, it's okay for you."

"But despite its flaws, I still like it very much. If one day, leaders from all over the world gather together and use their paintbrushes. Rather than talking about guns and guns, that is of course also a great progress in world civilization."

"In the civilization game, the specific national construction of Eastern Xia.The building is called a canal. Every time I play the game, I am thinking that the most famous king in the history of Eastern Xia who was famous for building canals was called Emperor Sui Yang. "

"Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty was a famous unscrupulous tyrant in the history of Eastern Xia. But if we measure him as an artist, Emperor Sui Yang was actually an emperor with extremely high artistic accomplishment. When my husband commented on the calligraphy and painting accomplishments of the kings of the past dynasties, in terms of poetry, Cao Cao was ranked first, and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was ranked among the top three. When it comes to handed down calligraphy stele stickers, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty ranks first, and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty can still be ranked among the top five. He is the kind of artistic all-rounder who has extremely high attainments in music, chess, calligraphy and painting."

Everyone listened quietly to Mr. Cao's story.

The story of Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang , everyone knows it in Eastern Xia.

In Europe and America, it is quite exotic and arouses curiosity.

There are many foreign sinologists who are obsessed with studying the history of Eastern Xia. Those who have studied to a very high level.

However, they generally still lack sufficient understanding of Eastern art.

Usually, even those who specialize in Eastern Xia history in mainstream European and American universities. 24 to 36 lessons, at most 72 lessons, a textbook with about 200,000 words, from Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to the successful bid for the Olympics.

Foreigners may just go through it. I am more concerned about the secrets of Wu Zetian's harem.

Although the Sui Dynasty was a unified dynasty in the past 30 years, the artistic style of the Sui Dynasty is often ignored. Little is known about it.

"In Li Yanshou's History of the North, it is said that although his artistic works are not many, they are enough to inspire the Tang Dynasty and become a model for all generations. When Wei Zheng was compiling the history of the Sui Dynasty, he lamented that the rulers of the subjugated country had many talents. After examining the Liang, Chen and Sui Dynasties, he believed that the theory was not false. This is the destruction of a country. All of this is attributed to Yang Guang's personal artistic attainments. "

Mr. Cao said slowly, "It seems like he is shirking responsibility. But think about it carefully, Yang Guang, Li Yu, Zhao Ji, including Louis XVI. ”

“It seems that we can really hear the echo of this sentence again and again in history, like a huge curse that cannot be removed. ”

“When I was teaching before, my disciple Zhou Ming once asked me why in feudal history, a truly great artist often failed to become a successful king. Even throughout the history of art, a real artist often cannot have a successful and happy life."

Countless people were silent.

Even the art masters present, On the contrary, they felt deeper.

A truly great artist often cannot become a successful king.

But Mr. Cao didn't care. In the second half of the sentence, a real artist often cannot have a successful and happy life

If it were expressed in the form of fighting comics

These guys would probably have their heads above their heads. White drifts outThe colorful "999" number was knocked out by Cao Xuan with a single sentence and a real critical hit.

Ask them if they are successful

They must be very successful.

Being able to appear on stage at the European Art Annual Conference has already proved this. Each of them is an idol figure that millions of art students can only hope to achieve.

If you want to ask them if they are happy

Probably, there are not many guests present who can pat their chests and say that they are very happy.

You are never happier if you have ten million dollars than someone who has one million dollars, or someone who doesn’t even have one hundred thousand dollars.

It’s also never the case. If you drive a 100-foot super yacht, bring a class of Victoria’s Secret models, and party on the Mediterranean every day, it’s better than walking to the cinema hand in hand with a male and female lover. It’s much happier to watch a half-price movie at 11 o’clock and eat a bucket of popcorn together.

In the eyes of the media, artists often have a life-or-death struggle, and they often shoot themselves at every turn. This is probably an exaggeration of stereotypes.

But at least one-third of them have been divorced multiple times.

Among the remaining two-thirds, most are the romantic type who have made up their minds. It is impossible to find true love anyway. If I don’t get married, I just want to have sex. I just want to have sex and change lovers every day. .

They are winners in the professional field and losers in life.

"Great artists are like floating. They spend a brilliant day in the sun and die alone at night." Cao Xuan said quietly, "What is even more pity is that in this industry The vast majority of people have never even seen the blazing sunshine."

"I did not tell Zhou Ming that the answer that seems to have been agreed upon in history is to destroy Tuyu, conquer the Turks, and win over Goryeo. Building the canal, opening the imperial examination, and going to Yangzhou three times. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty died due to his personal ambitions. I thought about it for a long time and gave my answer to the aesthetic curse.

Everyone is pondering this statement.

“Every artist is an esthetician, which is not only reflected in artistic creation, but also often in personal life. They always pursue perfection and cannot accept any failure or stain like obsessive-compulsive disorder. Yang Guang has been an artist all his life. He treats the entire country as a grand picture of the country and the country. What should I do when a painting suddenly touches a stain with a shake of my hand?"

"This is the thinking of a typical artist. So historians say that he could live in prosperous times, but it was difficult to calm down in troubled times, so he was discouraged in times of trouble. "It's cold."

"Yang Guang's generation was so debauched that he tortured the people and made them miserable. But at the same time, he was the wisest among his brothers and sisters in the first half of his life. When he was a prince, he was a famous Xianwang in the world, and he was famous for his military achievements and was well supported by others. He loved music and knew art until he failed to conquer Goryeo., people changed all of a sudden. ”

“He is like the kind of child from other people’s families who has always only scored 100% on exams since he was a child. Suddenly one day, while taking the test, I found that I had written the wrong question on the first question. His reaction was not to grit his teeth and continue taking the exam. Instead, I suddenly collapsed, tore up the entire paper, stopped taking the exam, stopped playing, and made a big fuss. "

"The entire Sui Dynasty may be the most powerful dynasty that has died suddenly in human history from ancient times to the present. The Guanlong nobles who started in the Sui Dynasty controlled the most powerful soldiers and horses in the land, and their barns were full of grain and grass. But Yang Guang has always had a personality with obsessive-compulsive aesthetics throughout his life. Everything must be done to perfection. Once you make a mistake, you will be locked up in the harem and ignore the government affairs. After finally being persuaded by the Queen, he came back and handled the affairs in an orderly manner, looking like a British monarch. As a result, two days later, I discovered that I had made a small mistake, so I retreated back to the harem and gave up my career. "

Cao Xuan shook his head and said slowly.

"Historically, until the end, the Guanlong noble group was tortured to the point of being unbearable. The cousin Li family raised their own troops and pacified the world. From then on, the Sui Dynasty was destroyed. ”

“The problem with life aestheticians is that they never deal with failure. ”

“I always feel that life is a canvas that can be torn, repainted, and spread out again. A game where you can quit and start over. ”

“Do you know why the child who gave me the painting made me feel so amazing? Or even enough to entrust me with a big task?” Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website to read for free without anti-theft
