Courtyard House: Starting in a Ceramics Factory

Chapter 166 The Art Troupe Artists' Appreciation of Li Feng's Works
Li Feng never expected that Master Deng would want to send him to Jingdezhen for further studies. At this moment, Li Feng couldn't help but think that if he went to Jingdezhen, he would be able to learn many unique painting techniques.

After all, no matter when, Jingdezhen has always been the main production center for porcelain, and many of the porcelain painters there have unique skills.

Moreover, there are many valuable porcelains in Jingdezhen. If you happen to come across Yuan blue and white porcelain or Chenghua porcelain in Jingdezhen, you might find some of these famous pieces.

I can also buy those porcelain pieces myself.

Then my antique appraisal skills will come in handy.

Although you can find bargains in places like Panjiayuan, there are just too many people looking for bargains in Panjiayuan.

According to Li Feng, many people go to the countryside or ancient villages to collect things.

Many of the items received were antiques, which were worth far more than the money they were paid for.

At this moment, Li Feng suddenly thought of his college entrance exam. If he were sent to Jingdezhen to study, it would be bad if he had to take the exam in time.

So Li Feng immediately told Master Deng about it.

Master Deng told Li Feng not to worry about it.

The factory will send you to Jingdezhen for training during your rest time, usually during summer vacation or Chinese New Year.

Li Feng was relieved when he heard this.

After all, this is a kind of thing.

Li Feng believes that he should prioritize getting into university.

If I go after graduation, it will be perfectly fine.

Besides, I'm young; I'm only nineteen this year.

Therefore, Li Feng felt that it was okay to postpone his opportunity to study in Jingdezhen.

A few days later

Minister Feng from the Publicity Department approached the leaders of the performing arts troupe, hoping that the artists in their troupe could appreciate and perform Li Feng's two songs.

Because the publicity department has very frequent business dealings with the local performing arts troupe.

Therefore, they were extremely enthusiastic about Minister Feng's arrival.

At this moment, Zhang Shan, the head of the cultural troupe, was smiling as he spoke to Minister Feng.

“When you called me a few days ago, you said you wanted to come over.”

"But I didn't expect you to come so soon."

"To be honest, our cultural troupe is quite ashamed. Our composer has only written a few songs."

"But after our team's review, we felt it didn't fit the theme, so it was rejected."

"But Minister Feng, please rest assured, several artists in our troupe are still working hard on their creations."

At this moment, Minister Feng waved his hand at Zhang Shan and said.

"Well, I understand. After all, creating art is not an easy thing."

"Moreover, this kind of thing mainly relies on inspiration. Without inspiration, it is indeed difficult to create good songs."

"This time, our publicity department received two pretty good song manuscripts, so I would like to invite an artist from your troupe with rich singing experience to give them a review."

"While you're at it, see if you can sing the songs in the sheet music."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shan nodded to Minister Feng.

"Of course."

"I've already arranged for the singers in our troupe to be in the conference room. Why don't you come with me now?"

After hearing Zhang Shan's words, Minister Feng nodded to Zhang Shan.

"Um!".

"become".

Afterwards, under Zhang Shan's guidance, Minister Feng went to the large conference room of the Beijing Cultural Troupe.

At this moment, more than a dozen artists from various cultural troupes and song and dance groups were already seated in the large conference room of the Beijing Cultural Troupe.

This time, Minister Feng invited many artists from other performing arts troupes or song and dance troupes to come here.

Although they belong to different units, they know each other almost all the time, and they often exchange their experiences together.

They were chatting in the conference room at that moment.

At this moment, a middle-aged artist said to an elderly artist, "Mr. Qian, I didn't expect even you to come."

"It seems that Minister Feng attaches great importance to this mission."

At this moment, the artist, who was addressed as "Old Qian," nodded to Han Fei and said...

"This time, we are soliciting songs from all over the country."

"It's quite normal for Minister Feng to pay attention to such a large-scale song solicitation."

"And I also heard that Minister Feng brought two songs this time, and they were written by a young man."

Zhou Fang, an older female artist sitting opposite Mr. Qian, couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Really?".

"And they were all written by the same person?"

"It hasn't been long since they announced the call for song submissions, has it?"

At this moment, the middle-aged man sitting next to Zhou Fang said.

"It's true."

“My friend in the publicity department said that Minister Feng really appreciates these two songs.”

"Otherwise, they wouldn't have gathered us together."

Just as they were discussing this, the door to the large conference room opened.

At this moment, Minister Feng from the Publicity Department and Zhang Shan, the head of the cultural troupe, arrived in the large conference room.

When Minister Feng of the Publicity and Publicity Department saw these veteran artists, he smiled and shook hands with each of them, exchanging a few simple pleasantries.

At this moment, Zhang Shan, the head of the cultural troupe, simply stood behind Minister Feng.

After Minister Feng finished shaking hands with all the artists.

He then took his seat in the main seat.

At this moment, he couldn't help but smile and thank the artists present.

"Thank you to all the senior figures in the art world for giving me the honor of coming here."

Thank you everyone.

"You should all know about our publicity department's song writing contest."

"This is a nationwide call for submissions issued on Mr. Li's instructions."

"After several days of collecting submissions and careful screening, our publicity department has decided that these two songs have made it to the final selection."

"Finally, our publicity department hopes that all the senior members will appreciate these two songs."

After Minister Feng finished speaking, he took out two songs written by Li Feng from his briefcase and distributed them to all the artists present.

At this moment, Qian Lao and the other artists smiled and said to Minister Feng.

"Minister Feng, you're too kind."

"We are happy to see good songs."

"Now that you have a new song, we are very curious about what kind of song it is that made you gather us old men together."

"Minister Feng, I heard that the author of these two songs is a young man, is that right?"

Upon hearing what everyone was saying, Minister Feng directly answered those present.

"Yes!".

"That's right!"

"The author of these two songs is indeed a young man; he is said to be less than twenty years old this year."

"They were workers at a ceramics factory under the Ministry of Light Industry."

When everyone present heard that the authors of these two songs were not even twenty years old, they were all surprised.

At this moment, two songs were also distributed to them.

So, out of curiosity, they picked up the two songs on the table and began to look at them carefully.

After all, they were curious about what kind of songs this young man would write that would win Minister Feng's favor.
