Chapter 328: Van Gogh's Romance

"That's right. I want to watch movies not only outdoors, but also in any environment that makes me relax. To be honest, I even want to watch movies when I'm taking a hot spring bath."

"I'm lucky. I've encountered this before in a hot spring hotel. There's a hot spring pool on one side and an open-air movie on the other. It's so comfortable."

"I think this is something that everyone likes, right? Movies are meant to be watched in a relaxing and comfortable environment."

It can be seen that Liu Caifeng and his wife also like to watch movies here when they have nothing to do on weekdays.

These servants were very diligent and it took them less than ten minutes to set up the outdoor movie screen, audio system and everything else.

Sun Ya folded her hands in front of her chest and said with a little disdain: "Xu Wen, you don't think watching a movie here is romantic, do you? Well, I admit that this is indeed a little romantic, but it's only a little bit, a very small amount."

"It's not about watching a movie, it's about showing you a picture."

Xu Wen turned on the Bluetooth on his phone and then projected a picture of an oil painting onto the screen.

"Do you know the name of this painting?"

Sun Ya immediately replied: "Everyone knows this. This is Van Gogh's "Starry Night". Everyone should know this, but what does this have to do with romance?"

Xu Wen pointed at the "Starry Night" on the screen and said, "Since you know this, then tell me why the "Starry Night" painted by Van Gogh is different from the starry sky we see?"

When Xu Wen said this, all the women were stumped.

After all, they are not art majors and have not studied these famous paintings. They just have some knowledge of them.

From an outsider's perspective, it is indeed difficult for them to understand why Van Gogh painted the starry sky like this.

In real life, the night sky is vast and twinkling.

The stars in the sky are like embellishments, hanging on the black curtain, giving people the feeling of diamonds inlaid on black silk.

But Van Gogh's starry sky is different.

The whole painting is filled with lines of various colors, and these lines are twisted, curved, and full.

The canvas, which is not very big to begin with, is completely occupied by these lines, giving people a very thick and oppressive feeling.

The girls stared at the painting for several minutes, but in the end they still couldn't figure out what it was about. They could only shake their heads and say, "Okay Xu Wen, I admit that this painting may be romantic, but we just don't appreciate it. But what does this have to do with you? This is not your painting."

Xu Wen smiled slightly.

"The reason I showed you this painting is actually to tell you that boys' romance is different from yours."

"Look carefully, is this what the starry sky in your imagination looks like?"

Xu Wen just pressed the button, and the originally blurry painting suddenly became clear and began to move on its own.

From the beginning, the screen was full of lines, and it directly turned into a standard castle and a sky full of stars.

Seeing this scene, the girls' eyes suddenly lit up.

But at this moment their focus is not on the painting, but on the animation.

Sun Ya said in surprise: "Xu Wen, you can actually make this kind of animation? It just so happens that our next project requires a demonstration animation. If you can do it, how about I give it to you?" Xu Wen: ...

Xu Wen was a little speechless. Seeing that Sun Ya had gone off topic, he quickly said, "We are talking about romance now. Can you please not talk to me about work first?"

Sun Ya quickly made an embarrassed gesture.

"Okay, okay, go on, I'm listening."

Xu Wen pointed at the painting on the big screen and said, "Is this the starry sky you imagined?"

After Xu Wen's animation transformation, the whole painting can now be understood by ordinary people.

It is the most common starry sky. There are a few stars hanging in the sky, which looks quite beautiful.

Sun Ya nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes, this is what a starry sky looks like. Look at the painting you showed us before. It doesn't look like a starry sky at all. The whole sky is distorted. It feels like something has invaded it. Anyway, I don't like it."

Sun Ya is a straightforward person who says whatever comes to her mind, so she doesn't consider whether what she says might offend others.

Since Xu Wen was just asking for her opinion at this time, so she just needed to tell Xu Wen everything she thought, right?
Xu Wen smiled and said, "So I said that everyone has a different definition of romance. Maybe you think that this starry sky is already very romantic, so you can't understand why Van Gogh painted the starry sky in such a distorted image."

"Then let me show you another picture and see if you can understand."

Xu Wen said this and took out another high-definition photo.

When this photo was released, everyone was stunned.

The castle is still the same castle, but the stars in the sky have completely changed!
All the stars in the sky turned into distorted lines, just like the starry sky painted by Van Gogh before!
At this moment, everyone didn't know what to say.

Because this is a high-definition photo, not a painting.

Generally speaking, it is impossible to make such extensive modifications to high-definition photos in order to achieve a certain effect.

Sun Ya was also a little confused. She frowned and said, "Is this photo of yours computer-generated?"

Xu Wen shook his head and said, "This is not a composite photo, this is a time-lapse photo. Someone found a place similar to the castle in Van Gogh's painting and took a time-lapse photo of the starry sky. This photo has not been processed by any computer."

"And these lines you can see are actually star trails."

"Because it is a time-lapse photography, each star will leave a moving light trail when it moves. And the photo taken after waiting for a whole night looks like this."

"That is to say, the starry sky that Van Gogh saw was a starry sky with star trails, a truly 'living' starry sky. Modern research has shown that the star trails he painted are also completely real star trails."

“Now do you understand the romance and greatness of Van Gogh? He is not fictional, but realistic.”

After hearing Xu Wen's explanation, everyone was dumbfounded.

Netizens in the live broadcast room immediately exploded.

You know, before this they had only heard that Van Gogh was great, but they never thought that Van Gogh was so outrageous!

This is too exaggerated!
Can anyone really draw star trails with the naked eye?
