Volume 3: Mystery in the Painting Chapter 165: Fighting Painting
When it comes to painting, if there is a person whose reputation today can rival that of the painting sage, it must be the painting madman Gu Yuanci.
But Gu Yuanci also has another level of identity, that is, he is a treasure appraiser.
Therefore, in comparison, Gu Yuanci seems to be more popular among the shopkeepers in the antique industry.
In this business, the biggest fear is fakes. Knowing a master treasure appraiser is an extra layer of assurance.
However, only Fan Dinghua has such an honor.
Because Gu Yuanci never easily appraises treasures, but Fan Dinghua is an exception.
Of course, asking Gu Yuanci to paint a painting is much more difficult than asking him to appraise treasures.
Gu Yuanci nodded in response.
At this moment, Wu Jingming glanced at Gu Yuanci with a sharp look in his eyes.
He was originally a top person in painting, but now there is an extra person on the top of the mountain, so naturally he is a bit of a challenge.
Of course, he is a painting saint. If he directly raises a challenge or something, he will invisibly lower his status.
The group of people continued walking forward and soon entered an attic.
This attic is very large, and it is filled with calligraphy and paintings. These calligraphy and paintings are either the handwriting of scholars, or the works of people who specialize in painting.
It is an unusual person to be able to place the transformation here.
Of course, those who come here to hang calligraphy and paintings have only one purpose, and that is to become famous.
During the Dajing Dynasty, the imperial examination system was implemented. To become an official in the dynasty, you had to take the examination.
However, in addition to the scientific examination, there are other ways of recommendation, such as poetry, poetry, music, chess, calligraphy and painting. If you are proficient in one, you will be the best, and if you are appreciated by a certain high official, you can also become an official.
No matter what form it takes, it is all for the purpose of entering the court.
This point is no different from those who took the civil service exams and public institutions exams in Hang Tianyi's previous life on Earth. Of course, in addition to taking the civil service exams, there is also the recruitment of talents.
Every year, so many college students, more than half of them, have to take civil service and public institution examinations.
It's a pity that only a small number of people can succeed in the civil service and public institution examinations.
Looking at the calligraphy and paintings in the room, Hang Tianyi actually didn't feel anything at all.
Anyway, these things, talking about artistic conception and so on, are just nonsense.
If he could create a portrait of a beauty like Wu Mei Tu, maybe Hang Tianyi would be somewhat interested.
The people here were all looking at Gu Yuanci and Wu Jingming hopefully, hoping to gain their approval.
You know, this is a painting sage, a painting fanatic. Once he is recognized, he can become famous almost overnight.
This is just like the world that Hang Tianyi lived in in his previous life. If some stars became famous overnight, their worth would definitely rise in a straight line.
Unfortunately, along the way, Wu Jingming and Gu Yuanci didn't seem to have the slightest interest in the paintings hanging here, and they didn't even bother to take a look.
In this way, the talented people who hung the paintings were really discouraged.
Fan Dinghua glanced at Wu Jingming and said with a smile: "It seems that none of the transformations here can catch the eye of the painting saint!"
Wu Jingming also smiled: "These paintings are actually very good, but they stop at painting skills. To be truly handed down, we need not only painting skills, but also artistic conception, and the emotion that the painter injects into the painting.
, is alive, how to communicate with the paintings requires the painter himself to understand!"
Painting Saint was in class, and all the talented people here were listening attentively. After all, there were not many opportunities to miss the class. At that moment, everyone was nodding thoughtfully.
Hang Tianyi looked at this group of people and secretly despised them. They were all pretending to be awesome, but in terms of talent, it was obvious that they were not even a little bit inferior to Wu Jingming!
"The Painting Saint is right. Paintings without emotion are lifeless. Since you are here, why don't you show us your skills?"
One of the young men dressed like a scholar shouted loudly, and the eyes of the rest of them had a little more hope at this time. Obviously, this was also their wish.
Wu Jingming looked indifferent. He knew that many people here wanted his paintings, and they even wanted to see him paint.
Some of them do it because of their admiration, but some of them are waiting for him to take action.
Famous people generally rarely draw in front of the public.
It's not that their paintings are not good, but there are some flaws, or the paintings don't live up to the reputation they deserve, they will all be questioned.
Reputation is a thing that sometimes happens by mistake.
In his previous life, those stars that Hang Tianyi saw the most were because after a certain drama became popular, it would be difficult to maintain the previous heights when he took on another drama.
Some of them are because they have not yet reached that level of strength. Although some others have that level of strength, there is no guarantee that every drama will become a hit.
In a word, to be famous, you not only need ability, but also a good time and place.
"Master Gu is also here today, how about you two each create a painting and compete for beauty?" Someone shouted loudly, obviously watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
It is really exciting to think about a showdown between a painting fanatic and a painting sage.
Not to mention other people, Nangong Qi, who was standing next to Hang Tianyi at this time, also had a hint of interest in his eyes.
Fan Dinghua said with a smile: "If you two could create a painting today, it would definitely be a wonderful story!"
Hang Tianyi secretly despised it. I am afraid that the biggest beneficiary of these two people's paintings today is Fan Dinghua, because he is hosting this painting exchange meeting.
"Painting, for me, actually doesn't have that many distinctions between high and low. I finally met Master Gu today, and I have become a layman. I have more worldly thoughts and a competitive spirit. I don't know.
Can Master Gu make it happen?"
Wu Jingming said this very politely, but everyone could hear that it was a challenge.
At this moment, everyone held their breath, waiting for Gu Yuanci's answer.
Lian Bufan really regarded Gu Yuanci as a friend, and at this moment, there was indeed a hint of worry in his eyes.
There was no expression on Gu Yuanci's cold face, but his mouth moved: "Okay!"
When everyone heard Gu Yuanci's answer, their hearts beat very hard, and their eyes burst out with unprecedented brilliance, as hot as a ball of fire.
Fan Dinghua laughed loudly and ordered people to prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstones.
Painting idiots and painting sages take action, and two masterpieces will be released today.
If he could get the two paintings and put them up for auction... Fan Dinghua couldn't be more excited when he thought of this.
Not long after, pen, ink, paper and inkstone were all ready.
Gu Yuanci and Wu Jingming each entered a room.
This kind of movement is just to avoid being affected by each other, so as to draw a masterpiece.
Of course, if you want to watch the excitement, you have to make a choice. If you can see one person, you cannot see the other person.
After all, these two top painters are in the same room at this time.
Compared to the painting sage Wu Jingming, Hang Tianyi was more interested in Gu Yuanci.
