Jiang Zhe received the text message, said hello to Lan Xin and others, and hurried to the venue of the oil painting group symposium.

The symposium on oil painting had already ended, and the participants came to the exhibition hall to take group photos.

Because there were so many people, three rows of seats were arranged with the help of the staff, and then the sorting began.

Professor Qin stood in the first row, looking towards the entrance from time to time.

He had just sent a text message to Jiang Zhe, but he hasn't come back yet.

After counting the number of people, the organizer of the oil painting group said to Professor Qin, "Old Qin, why hasn't Jiang Zhe come yet?"

Professor Qin said helplessly: "I have urged him, it should be soon."

Someone next to him said, “Here we come.”

Jiang Zhe ran into the venue and saw that everyone was already standing, so he quickened his pace to report over.

Several teachers who knew him laughed and said, "Jiang Zhe, you're late.

"Just waiting for you."

Jiang Zhe hurriedly apologized to several teachers.

Seeing that the front rows were full of important guests and veteran painters, I automatically walked to the last row.

The organizer hurriedly stopped him: "Where are you going? Your seat is here." He pointed to the first row.

When Jiang Zhe saw this position, he said, "I dare not stand there," and then stood in the leftmost position in the first row.

Several teachers wanted to move Jiang Zhe to a position closer to the center, but Jiang Zhe refused.

Li Lianggui, who was standing in the second row, felt mixed emotions when he saw the mutual humility. He thought back to when he was famous, he also had such a glorious time. How could it have changed in just a few years?
The photographer successfully took the group photo.

The organizers reminded again: "Don't rush to leave. We will announce the selected list soon."

Some painters met up with friends to chat, while others visited other professional groups.

Several teachers from the oil painting group said to Jiang Zhe, "Jiang Zhe, you are a bit outrageous. You are from our oil painting group, but you are going to participate in activities in other people's calligraphy and painting groups."

"We all heard that you were doing calligraphy and seal carving over there. You only showed up once here and then ran away."

Another teacher said, "You can't blame Jiang Zhe for this. Our activities here are just discussions, and we don't take it seriously." He looked at the person in charge of organizing the event, "Next time, we have to hold a live painting meeting. Even if we paint simpler works, we should talk more dryly."

"Yes, yes, let's create on site next time." Someone agreed.

The organizer of the event said: "I will report your opinions to the higher authorities."

Wang Zhen comes to find Jiang Zhe.

The two people walked to a secluded place.

Wang Zhen told Jiang Zhe that the arrangements made in the morning had taken effect, and many people began to speak for Jiang Zhe openly or secretly.

In addition to the original arrangements, some guests and people who had never been in contact with Jiang Zhe unexpectedly began to help him.

"I don't know the reason. Maybe they think highly of you and want to observe you further."

Jiang Zhe guessed that this might be a reflection of the system's effectiveness. "Let's remember all these people and make sure we don't miss any of them when we need to thank them."

"Don't worry, I'll make the arrangements."

At this time, a man in his fifties walked towards Jiang Zhe.

Wang Zhen reminded: "Wu Gao is here. He was looking for you before."

Jiang Zhe had met Wu Gao once before and smiled as he walked over to him: "Teacher Wu, you're looking for me?"

Lao Wu said: “Congratulations first.

During the discussion, we all heard that your works were also sold at high prices at Christie's. This brings honor to the painters in our province."

"You're overly flattering."

After the pleasantries, Lao Wu said, "I heard that you and Lao Liang are a little unhappy?"

Jiang Zhe looked confused: "Who told you this? There is nothing unpleasant about it. It's just that some problems came up during the conversation. Maybe someone misunderstood me."

"Oh, that's how it is, that's what I said." Lao Wu suddenly realized: "Neither you nor Lao Liang are the kind of stingy people. Today at noon, we agreed to have a drink together.

I want to get in touch with you guys and have a drink so that these rumors don’t become a misunderstanding.”

"Okay, thank you." Jiang Zhe agreed: "I'll arrange it."

"No need. At noon today, several people from the association came out to entertain our friends from out of town. I am just offering my appreciation to them."

"Thank you for being so thoughtful."

"You're welcome." After making the appointment, Lao Wu went to find other people. He still had a few things to do today.

After Lao Wu left, Jiang Zhe asked Wang Zhen, "This is the person you contacted."

Wang Zhen shook his head: "No. I don't know why he came out to mediate. He has a good relationship with Liang Gui, so he might want to help Liang Gui."

She looked at Jiang Zhe and continued, "Don't worry, today's arrangement is enough to leave a deep impression on Liang Gui."

Two people talking and killing time.

Jiang Zhe discovered that other people were also trying to kill time.

The shortlist will be announced soon, and everyone is under pressure. On the other side, Liang Gui and Li Lu are walking in the center exhibition hall.

Liang Gui suffered a series of blows today. Although he appeared calm on the surface, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He felt even more uncomfortable when he thought about having to ask Wu Gao to act as a middleman to have a drink with Jiang Zhe at noon.

So, after taking the photo, he didn’t chat with his friends and went straight to the exhibition hall.

Important works participating in the provincial art exhibition are displayed here.

Liang Gui listened attentively to the comments of some visitors when he passed by his works several times.

These viewers were all amateurs, and Liang Gui felt a little comforted by their favorable comments.

He and Li Lu were chatting idly, and unknowingly walked near Jiang Zhe's works, where they happened to see an old man and a young boy commenting on Jiang Zhe's paintings.

"…This is the characteristic of realism. Look at this mother who is buying groceries with her child. She is selecting vegetables with one hand and holding her child with the other hand. Look at the expression of the child as he snuggles up to his mother." The old man watched and instructed the young man next to him.

The young boy said: "I think his painting is very realistic and looks like the real thing."

"You can't use the word 'like' to describe it, because you haven't seen the original character." The old man said, "This kind of precise and detailed description can show the inner world of the characters in the painting and their living conditions.

For example, the bags these people use to pack their vegetables, or the simple homemade carts, portray ordinary citizens very realistically.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

The reality expressed by this painting language is often more real than that of photography, because painting carries the artist's subjective refinement and his feelings.

There is a social reality reflected in this painting.”

"A painting like this can be sold for one million?" the boy asked.

The old man smiled and said, "You heard that too? Such paintings are a kind of humanistic concern. True realism is to face reality and pay attention to and express social phenomena. However, it is difficult for an unknown painter to sell such works at a high price. Of course, if a painter becomes famous, such works may become his representative works."

The boy pointed to the face of a young woman in the painting and said, "The color of her skin is very natural. You can tell she is sweating."

The old man explained: “This kind of reality is different from photorealism and hyperrealism painting.

Jiang Zhe is very good at painting realistic portraits. If you are interested, you can take a look at his portrait works.

He is good at making full use of the texture, grain, and color range of oil paint in his creations.

There are several characters of different ages in this painting. Jiang Zhe uses modeling and texture effects to depict skin differences and reflect age differences.

The image of the woman you just mentioned is more elegant and precise than other images. Jiang Zhe draws the elasticity and warmth of the facial skin of the character, which creates a contrast with other characters. "

"Teacher, look at the highlight on the eye." The boy tried to get closer to the picture and observe the details.

The old man supported the boy: "Be careful, don't touch the painting."

When he saw the highlight the young man mentioned, he began to comment: "This little highlight makes the eyes of the character come alive. Our ancients said that the expression of spirit lies in the eyes. To look at the paintings of masters, you need to be patient and appreciate them.

Some details seem to come naturally.

With just a few strokes, the texture, structure and shape are all expressed, which is both effortless and precise.

This ability is not passive depiction, but active processing. If you look at photorealistic paintings and compare them with these vivid works, you can see the result of artistic refinement.

This is the meaning and value of painting language. Jiang Zhe's paintings are very spiritual. Some painters may not be able to paint so well even if they study for a lifetime. Now many people advocate new trends, and some people advocate painting likenesses, but that kind of skill is close to acrobatics.

True art comes from thinking and enjoyment, and it is wisdom.”

Liang Gui felt particularly uncomfortable when he heard others praising Jiang Zhe.

Especially some of the words felt directed at me.

He took a look at the old man's appearance.

This person seems to be an old teacher, and the other one should be his student or junior.

The old man’s works were not sold for more than his own price, and he was not very famous, so he must not be very knowledgeable.

Liang Gui said to Li Lu: "Let's go outside and get some fresh air."

As the two walked to the door, they saw a museum staff holding a roll of red paper and walking towards the entrance.
The two looked at each other and realized that the list of selected candidates was to be posted.

The staff of the art museum unfolded the big red paper and posted it on a display board that had been prepared in advance.

Many people saw this scene and gathered around to watch.

Liang Gui followed and looked at the list.

He knew that there should be nearly a hundred people selected this time, and he should be able to be selected, but he had to see it with his own eyes to feel at ease.

Jiang Zhe and Wang Zhen were no exception. They came to the back of the crowd and looked at the list.

A handwritten list of selected candidates, grouped according to different majors.

Some majors have more students, while others have fewer.

These quotas are not decided by the province, but by the organizing committee of the National Art Exhibition, which allocates the quotas to each province.

Jiang Zhe's eyes quickly scanned the list of candidates selected for the oil painting major.

The second name on the list is Jiang Zhe.

Seeing that they were selected, Jiang Zhe and Wang Zhen looked at each other and smiles appeared on their faces.

not worried.

At this time, Liang Gui's face became more and more ugly. (End of this chapter)
