The Lin sisters dragged Yang Chen to Lin Zhengtian’s study.

Although it is a study room, it is very large, even more spacious than their living room.

The old man usually writes and draws here, and the walls of the room are covered with his works.

Lin Zhengtian is exchanging experiences with some experts.

Seeing Yang Chen coming, Lin Zhengtian introduced with a smile: "I would like to introduce a young friend to you old friends. This is Mr. Yang Chen. Mr. Yang, let me introduce these old friends to you."

Liu Qingguo, Director of the Municipal Museum, Zhang Tiancang, Deputy Director, Chen Yingjie, President of the Haicheng Painting and Calligraphy Association, Liu Chuanxiong, CEO of the Agarwood Collection Art Appraisal and Trading Company, Zhao Jingzhong, a Qingfeng layman, and Tang Shoucheng, the master of traditional Chinese painting.

Yang Chen greeted everyone very politely.

Because Yang Chen was a friend specially introduced by Lin Zhengtian, and he was also called Mr. Little, everyone thought that he was a painting genius like Zhang Quan, so they were all curious to find out who Yang Chen studied under, which family he belonged to, etc.

Yang Chen never hides his job and truthfully tells everyone that he is just an online ride-hailing driver.

For a moment, all the experts were stunned, and then looked at Lin Zhengtian with curiosity.

Lin Zhengtian said with a smile: "I know you will feel very strange. Anxiang, go and bring that painting to all the seniors for appreciation."

Lin Anxiang nodded and hurriedly ran to her room to get the "Picture of a Girl with Maple Leaves in the Lake" painted by Yang Chen.

Lin Zhengtian said with a smile: "Little sir, come, take a look at our paintings and give us some suggestions."

Other experts naturally showed a look of disdain. What level of appreciation can an online ride-hailing driver have?

Can you give me any suggestions?

Lin Zhengtian is either deliberately showing off, or he is too humble. There is really no need to act like this.

Yang Chen casually looked at a few paintings and found something wrong with them. However, there were too many people today, and all the artists wanted to be shameless. Yang Chen didn't want to find fault in public, so he smiled and nodded, saying: "Not bad, Lin

Lao’s paintings are good, and everyone’s paintings are also good.”

What the hell?

Not bad?

Isn’t this guy too rude?

Lin Zhengtian, a master of calligraphy and painting, Tang Shoucheng, a master of traditional Chinese painting, Zhao Jingzhong, a master of ancient style, Qingfeng layman...

Any one you pick out is authoritative, and he actually says it’s pretty good?

Liu Qingguo: "Kid, what you say is a bit rude!"

Liu Chuanxiong: "It's not just rude! Mr. Lin's paintings are top-notch ones that many collectors are vying for but can't buy. You actually said they're not bad. What? Can you paint better?"

Zhang Tiancang knew that his son Zhang Quan had some issues with Yang Chen, and he was holding back his anger.

Naturally, he would not miss such a good opportunity to attack Yang Chen.

"You kid, you are talking nonsense! Can you belittle the paintings of all the masters?" Zhang Tiancang reprimanded angrily.

Yang Chen was stunned.

How to drip mud?

Aren’t these three words a compliment?

Do people in the cultural and art circles understand these three words differently from ordinary people?

Isn’t that right? Aren’t they all from the Dragon Kingdom and have the Chinese characters of the Dragon Kingdom?

Are these three words derogatory to them?

Lin Zhengtian said with a smile: "Don't be so excited. The little gentleman said it's not bad, but there is still room for improvement? Then I want to ask the little gentleman for advice. I hope I can make further progress in painting in the future. I hope the little gentleman will not hesitate.

Please teach me."

Yang Chen probably understands why these people are angry. It’s not enough to say that the co-author is not bad, he must say things like great, awesome, invincible, etc.

Yang Chen: "Mr. Lin, don't call me Mr. Little. I feel ashamed. Just call me Yang Chen, or call me Ah Chen or Xiao Chen like my aunt. I'm just an online ride-hailing driver.

Do you have the ability to communicate with an authority like Mr. Lin?"

Lin Shuying: "It's okay for everyone to communicate with each other. It doesn't matter whether what you say is right or wrong, good or bad. Art is inherently subjective. It's normal for different people to draw the same thing with different results.

."

Lin Zhengtian: "Haha...Shu Ying is so right. I will call you Xiaochen. Xiaochen, don't think too much, don't have any psychological burden, just say whatever is on your mind."

Looking at the ugly faces of those experts, Yang Chen also felt uncomfortable.

Mad, don’t you want to save face for you?

OK!

Then let each of you realize what your level is.

Yang Chen pointed at the previous picture of "Farmers Returning Home" and commented on it.

"This painting is outstanding in terms of appearance and color. It depicts the scene of a farmer working for a day and returning home accompanied by the stars and moon."

This painting is the work of Qingfeng layman Zhao Jingzhong. Hearing Yang Chen's praise, a smile appeared on his face.

However, Yang Chen then changed the topic and said: "But the author of this painting made a common-sense mistake. It may have something to do with him working behind closed doors."

As soon as he said these words, the smile on Zhao Jingzhong's face disappeared.

Zhang Tiancang: "That's nonsense! Do you know whose painting this is? How dare you talk nonsense!"

Yang Chen: "I don't care about the painting but the person."

Zhao Jingzhong: "Haha...little brother is right. Then can you tell me what mistakes the author of this painting made?"

Yang Chen: "Judging from the farmer's white hair and silver beard, he should be an old man. In ancient times, old people who had to work in the fields at this age could not be so tall and straight, and would inevitably have a stooped back. And he is a farmer.

, if he is not a martial artist, how could he have such a tall and strong body? The most accurate way to draw him is to paint him as an old man with a stooped back and a shambling step. The author of this painting must be based on his own physical condition or the physical condition of the old people around him.

He drew the old farmer in the painting, but did not actually go to the countryside to see what the elderly people in their seventies and eighties looked like. So I said that he made a common-sense mistake and was a typical example of working behind closed doors. Isn't that wrong?"

Oops, it’s so embarrassing.

Zhao Jingzhong's face turned red, and other experts were speechless.

Paintings like this are required to be as realistic as possible. The more they return to nature, the more they are in line with the essence and the more valuable they appear.

After hearing Yang Chen's analysis, everyone instantly felt that Zhao Jingzhong's painting was worthless.

Yang Chen pointed to the "Green Mountains and Green Waters" next to him and commented: "This painting is good in terms of content, color, etc., but I still want to call it garbage."

The face of Tang Shoucheng, the master of traditional Chinese painting, suddenly tightened because this painting is his proud work.

Zhang Tiancang: "Child, what are you talking about?"

Yang Chen couldn't stand this guy anymore, and said: "Comrade Deputy Director, you are very jumpy. The director and experts didn't say anything. You said something childish and nonsense. How can you be the deputy director with this kind of state of mind?

You’re in this position? You bought it with money, right? Didn’t your dad teach you not to interrupt when others are talking? You don’t have the most basic courtesy, how dare you show up here?"

Zhang Tiancang: "You...you...as fast as your tongue, you..."

Curator Liu Qingguo said loudly: "Okay! We won't say anything and let him talk freely! I don't see any flaws in this painting. I want to hear how he finds the faults."

Everyone nodded and stopped talking.

Lin Shuying looked at Yang Chen with admiration, thinking: "This guy has been avoiding me. I thought he was timid and afraid of getting into trouble. I didn't expect him to be so brave when his temper got worse. Hehe..."

Originally, Yang Chen didn't want to attack them, but they insisted on communicating with him because of his reputation.

So when it comes to communication, you still have to say only good things and not bad things?

What a waste of communication!

Yang Chen said that Tang Shoucheng's painting was rubbish, and he certainly had his reasons.

Elementary school students all know that writing an essay must fit the theme. If the title of the essay is "Green Mountains and Green Waters," then the green mountains and green waters should be highlighted, and paragraphs should not be wasted describing other things.

Do you understand this?

If you apply this principle to painting, it’s actually the same.

Tang Shoucheng's "Green Mountains and Green Waters" should have focused on green mountains and green waters, which means that these two themes should occupy the majority of the entire painting.

However, the effect of his painting is that the green mountains and green water are from a distance, occupying only a small part, while the pedestrians and woods are close-up, occupying the majority of the painting. Can this still be called "Green Mountains and Green Waters"?
p>

After listening to Yang Chen's analysis, everyone suddenly realized.

The picture must have a clear priority. The theme that the painter wants to express must occupy an absolute position, and the length must be the largest. It is most taboo to overwhelm the guest and take over the subject, without distinguishing the priority.

Lin Shuying: "What if we change the name of this painting? For example, call it a walk in the woods?"

Yang Chen shook his head and said: "It still doesn't work! Because the theme of this painting is green mountains and green water, so although these two parts occupy a small part of the picture, they occupy c space. If the name of this painting is changed, for example, it is called

When walking in the mountains and forests, it is true that pedestrians and mountains are close-up and occupy most of the picture, but they are not in the C position. When I stood in the front and looked over, I saw green mountains and green waters that only occupied a small part, and

It’s not a walk in the woods. You call it a walk in the woods, but it still doesn’t perfectly express the theme. Therefore, this painting is garbage, and there is no possibility of saving it!”

Damn!

The proud work of the master of Chinese painting Tang Shoucheng was actually rated as rubbish by him!
