Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful

Chapter 721, Donated Works, Rewards, Return to Binhai

Jiang Zhe and Wang Zhen returned to the gallery and went to the exhibition hall first.

After the National Art Exhibition was withdrawn, Jiang Zhe's award-winning work was temporarily stored in the gallery exhibition hall.

Wang Zhen called his employees and arranged to transport the painting to the National Gallery tomorrow morning.

When several employees heard that Jiang Zhe's paintings were collected by the National Art Gallery, they congratulated him.

When the employees left, there were still a few visitors in the exhibition hall looking at the paintings.

They vaguely heard Wang Zhen's arrangements.

These people are all fans. They had never seen Jiang Zhe’s introduction or photos before, but now that they saw him in person, they came over and asked to take photos with Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe did not refuse. Wherever he went, people asked for photos.

I just had a taste of this recently, and I'm a little proud of it.
After the group photo was taken, Wang Zhen motioned for Jiang Zhe to go to the office for a talk.

She made a cup of black tea for Jiang Zhe.

"Your work has been collected by the National Gallery. Your previous wish has finally come true."

“Thank you for running it.”

"The key is that you paint well, and you are really lucky. Many painters may never be able to do things, but you can easily accomplish them." Wang Zhen also relaxed and slowly sipped tea and chatted: "At the party yesterday, someone mentioned you and there was a hint of sourness in their words. I could smell it from a distance. What are your plans next?"

According to past experience, many painters who reach Jiang Zhe's current status would choose to lie down and live a carefree life. With their current fame, they can enjoy the rest of their lives comfortably.

"What are your plans?" Jiang Zhe slowly turned the cup in his hand and said, "In the field of painting, there are still many things I want to continue to study and learn. Of course, there are other art categories. As long as I have time, I may try them. I don't have a specific goal yet."

This was part of his idea, but besides that, the system would not allow him to lie down.

Seeing that Jiang Zhe still had the will to continue to develop and improve, Wang Zhen finally put his heart at ease. He hoped that Jiang Zhe could go further and his gallery could develop accordingly.

"Whatever your goal is, I will do my best to help you." Wang Zhen said, "Tomorrow, there should be media coverage, and I will also arrange for someone to help you take pictures of memorable moments."

Jiang Zhe returned to his residence and told his family, friends and teachers at school the good news of the day.

Jiang Yi and his wife received a call from their son.

The old couple took turns talking to Jiang Zhe and ended the call after asking many details.

"We go to discuss it today and hold a ceremony to donate the works tomorrow. This is too hasty. If we go now, will it still be in time?" Xu Li really wanted to witness with her own eyes the scene of her son's works being collected by the National Art Gallery.

Jiang Yi said: "We should be able to make it in time by plane, but what are we going to do? We'd better not go and cause trouble." Although he also wanted to go, years of living habits made them think that plane tickets were too expensive.

"Now, we have videos and photos. As long as we keep these materials, it will be the same when we take them back to watch them."

"Yes, when the time comes." Xu Li looked at the cupboard at home where the certificates of honor were placed.

The place is almost full, "Make room for another one here."

Coastal Academy of Arts.

After Professor Qin received the news from Jiang Zhe, he immediately reported it to the school.

The hospital leader immediately called together several relevant personnel to discuss how to promote it.

"So far, only Jiang Zhe's work has been confirmed to be collected by the National Gallery. I don't think there is hope for the works of others."

“It’s not easy to have a work succeed.”

The dean said: "This must be included in the publicity plan. In addition, if the student's work is collected by the National Gallery, it can have a place in the school's Hall of Honor."

Others immediately echoed.

"agree."

"Jiang Zhe already has several honors in the Hall of Honor."

"I just went to check it out, and it's almost filling up a display case."

On that day, Jiang Zhe checked the system several times, but unfortunately there were no new prompts.

The next morning, Jiang Zhe and Wang Zhen took the gallery's car to the National Gallery.

Under the guidance of the gallery staff, the gallery employees carried Jiang Zhe's works into the exhibition hall for the dinner ceremony.

There are already quite a few works on display here.

Jiang Zhe's works are large in size and are part of a series of paintings, which attracted a lot of attention during the display process.

Jiang Zhe was worried that there might be bumps during the transportation process, so he followed the whole process.

As soon as you enter the exhibition hall, you can see many painters waiting for the ceremony to begin.

When Teacher Dong saw Jiang Zhe coming, he and several other painters walked over with smiles.

"Jiang Zhe, you are late."

"We're all here early." The works of several painters who came over to talk all won gold medals in the National Art Exhibition. There were Chinese paintings, gouache, watercolor, prints, sculptures, and so on.

Today, these works are collected by the National Gallery.

Jiang Zhe greeted everyone one by one.

We had all met each other at several gatherings.

A painter said, "Let's hold a donation ceremony together. This is my first time. Does anyone have experience? Please give me some advice later. Otherwise, we will make a fool of ourselves."

Another teacher said: "This is our first time."

Teacher Dong said: "This kind of donation or collection ceremony is similar. Your works have been collected by other institutions. You should have experience."

Jiang Zhe knew that these teachers were just joking to liven up the atmosphere.

There is no competition at this moment, everyone's work is collected, so everyone is in harmony.

Although there were ceremonies for multiple works at the same time, the museum tried to make the ceremony as grand as possible.

There were quite a few spectators at the scene.

In addition to the ceremony platform, several rows of chairs were set up as audience seats. Jiang Zhe and many painters who donated their works sat in the first row.

The National Gallery sent several senior executives and also invited several guests.

The painters who donated their works to the National Art Gallery took turns to come on stage to express their gratitude.

Wang Zhen had already helped Jiang Zhe prepare the manuscript yesterday.

Because Jiang Zhe was in a good mood, he finished his speech without a script.

The curator came up to the stage and shook hands with Jiang Zhe, and presented him with a collection certificate. Then, the two of them came to Jiang Zhe's work and took a photo together.

After the ceremony, many of the completed works were moved into the exhibition halls of the National Gallery.

Jiang Zhe's work is large in size, taking up the space of several paintings, and is particularly eye-catching.

He examined the display of the work and was very satisfied.

A person stands in front of the work and takes a photo.

Immediately afterwards, he was pulled by many people to take photos.

Wang Zhen arranged for employees to film the ceremony and the subsequent procedures.

The ceremony is over.

Everyone has their own things to do.

Several people invited Jiang Zhe to attend the party.

Jiang Zhe declined one by one, saying that he had to report back to school as soon as possible.

Many painters expressed their feelings after hearing Jiang Zhe's reasons.

Because they won the award together, they subconsciously overlooked the fact that Jiang Zhe was still a student.

After getting in the car, Wang Zhen said, "I will send you the ceremony materials as soon as possible." She knew that Jiang Zhe would return to Binhai today, so she did not persuade him to stay for a few more days. "I will help you arrange the follow-up matters, don't worry."

"If there's anything you need me to do, just call me directly." Jiang Zhe said. Wang Zhen said, "You won the gold medal in the National Art Exhibition. After you return to Binhai, both the Provincial and Municipal Artists Associations, including the cultural departments, will definitely respond to this matter.

According to tradition, you will definitely be invited to participate in the New Year's art exhibition. Think about how to deal with this matter."

Jiang Zhe thought for a moment and said, "My winning work is already in the National Gallery. If I take a replica to participate, wouldn't that be a bad idea?"

"Of course not. However, everyone can understand your situation. Just bring a piece of your usual practice work to participate."

"it is good."

Jiang Zhe returned to his residence and rushed to the airport with his luggage.

Because Wang Zhen had a lot of things to do, he asked his assistant to accompany Jiang Zhe to the airport.

After successfully boarding the plane, Jiang Zhe sat in his seat, closed his eyes, and opened the system page.

The system finally responded to what happened today.

Your group painting works are collected by the National Gallery. In the process of professional development, you have completed a new challenge and goal, and the system will give you rewards.

Reward 1: One opportunity to improve your skills.

Reward 2. More channels for obtaining honor points.

Reward 3: One chance to draw a skill.

No funds were given as rewards for this mission.

Jiang Zhe couldn’t think of how to use the promotion and lottery opportunities for the time being, so he accumulated opportunities and prepared to use them when he had a plan or the right opportunity.

He carefully read the instructions for obtaining honor points.

With the increase of channels, in addition to audience appreciation of paintings and word of mouth, all kinds of praise and even discussion about him or his works will be recorded in the honor value.

This way, the chances of gaining honor points increase.

As the honor value increases, your honor level will increase, and subsequent rewards will also increase. This is a virtuous cycle.

Jiang Zhe felt that although he did not receive direct financial rewards, these rewards were beneficial to his development.

He clicked the upgrade button contentedly, then let the system upgrade itself and began to truly rest.

After returning to Binhai safely, he first went home to report his safety to his parents and showed them the honors and detailed information he brought back.

Then, come to school with the certificate.

As soon as I arrived at school, I saw Chen Yan waiting for me in the parking lot.

Jiang Zhe parked the car and Chen Yan had already opened the door and got in.

She sat in Jiang Zhe's arms.

"What took so long? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Jiang Zhe rubbed her nose.

"Sorry, I came here as fast as I could."

……

The two people were intimate in the car to relieve their longing for each other.

Chen Yan wanted to witness the moment when Jiang Zhe received the honor, but unfortunately she didn't have the chance to ask for leave and could only listen to Jiang Zhe's description.

Jiang Zhe knew what she was thinking from his previous conversation with Chen Wan. "There will be many more opportunities like this in the future."

After staying for a while, the cell phone rang.

Jiang Zhe picked up his phone and saw a text message from Professor Qin, asking him when he could arrive at school.

He pointed the phone at Chen Yan and said, "Professor Qin is already urging us to come over quickly."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

The two of them put their clothes in order.

Jiang Zhe took the materials he brought back, and Chen Yan accompanied him to the bottom of the teaching building.

"I'll call you when I'm done with these things."

"I'll wait for your call." After watching Jiang Zhe go upstairs, Chen Yan left with satisfaction.

Jiang Zhe went directly to the department director's office, and Professor Qin asked him to meet there directly.

After knocking on the door, I saw the department head, Professor Qin, and several teachers from the oil painting department were there.

"Is Jiang Zhe back?"

"congratulations."

"Did you bring the certificate of honor? Show it to us." Several teachers greeted enthusiastically.

Jiang Zhe greeted everyone in turn and took out the honorary certificates and related materials he had brought back.

The department head looked at the certificate first, and read it over and over again.

“The National Gallery’s collection certificate is really impressive.”

He looked at the certificate and photo, and the other teachers passed them around.

These teachers all have the idea of ​​having their works collected by art museums, but unfortunately it has never been achieved, so they are particularly jealous when looking at this certificate.

After Professor Qin finished reading it, he asked, "Did you take a video?"

Jiang Zhe replied: "I took the photo, and President Wang will send it to me."

"Remember to leave a copy of the information for the school."

After everyone finished reading the materials, the department head said, "The school has made arrangements. When you come back, we will go directly to the Hall of Honor."

He had already discussed this with Jiang Zhe in advance, and this time, the academy attached great importance to this honor.

The department head called the Hall of Honor and after confirmation, he took several teachers and Jiang Zhe to the school Hall of Honor.

The teacher in charge of the Hall of Honor is already prepared.

A copy of the collection certificate will be placed on the honor stand and displayed to the public.

Jiang Zhe has had several similar experiences, so the whole process can be said to be familiar to him.

After everyone took a group photo, Jiang Zhe counted and found that he had a total of six honors displayed here, almost taking up an entire display case.

When Professor Qin saw this scene, he smiled and said, "When you graduate, see if you can fill this place." He also thought that maybe in the future Jiang Zhe would be able to occupy a room here.

After the ceremony, everyone dispersed.

Jiang Zhe went to cancel his leave, completed these procedures, and came to the classroom.

When I opened the door, I saw several classmates who stayed in the classroom to study.

In fact, at this time, there are not many people who can really calm down and study.

When they saw Jiang Zhe coming back, everyone put down their books, gathered around him, and asked him questions.

Some asked about his participation in art exhibitions and award presentations, while others asked about his experience of going out to take preliminary exams.

After Jiang Zhe responded one by one, he also asked about the other party's recent situation.

We haven't met for a while, and since we all have different experiences, we have a lot to discuss.

During the conversation, Jiang Zhe learned that many classmates who had gone out to take the preliminary exam had returned one after another, while some were still out, such as Fu Min who had not returned.

The students who have returned have basically passed the preliminary examination and are preparing for the re-examination.

There are also some students who are preparing to go to work and have stayed in school. After hearing about the experiences of their classmates who are taking the postgraduate entrance examination, they feel curious and envious.

Thinking that I may never have such an experience again, I can't help but doubt whether my choice was the right one.
