Chapter 253: A Lifetime Honor
"I now announce that the World Art Exchange Conference is now open. After a paragraph of official language, the middle-aged man and the foreigner announced the beginning of the exchange meeting.
The first person to take the stage was Stanny Christian from the Netherlands, a world-class oil painting master, whose work to be exhibited this time is called "Chrysanthemum Monster".
The master of ceremonies also reads out the names of the writers who will be on stage and the works that will be displayed.
After taking the stage, Stany Christian held the painting in his hand and displayed his work to the audience, and the big screen also showed the basic information of the artist's life and his works and glory.
The paintings shown by Stanny Christian are very similar to the chrysanthemum monsters painted by Van Gogh, the famous painter of Lu Dongchen's time and space in the previous life.
"This painting is composed of a combination of brilliant yellows, petals full of tension, uninhibited lines, bold and wanton, solid and powerful brushstrokes, on the bright and brilliant background to form different tones and momentum, the chrysanthemum monster expression of the moving heartstrings. A Western painter who is also a world-class oil painting master praised.
In this work, there is no longer the short, short brushstrokes of the self-portrait, but the solid and powerful brushstrokes of Stanny Christian depict the brilliant luster and full outline of the chrysanthemum monster vividly. He boldly used the strongest colors, because he knew very well: "The years will make them dull, even too dull." "Another compliment from a world-class oil painting master.
Hearing the praise of the two world-class masters, there was also warm applause from everyone below, and Stanny Christian on the stage also bowed deeply to the people below, and then stepped off the stage.
Then the next painter representing his country came to the stage to exhibit his works.
More than two hours have passed, and it is almost time for Professor Xu, Zhao Yunming and Wu Yuhao both came to the stage to show their works, but they did get a boo.
Although Zhao Yunming and Wu Yuhao's paintings are already perfect, there is no way because Chinese painting is not treated by people all over the world, so even if Zhao Yunming and Wu Yuhao paint well, they will still be rejected by outsiders, which has nothing to do with their painting skills.
Because the works of Zhao Yunming and Wu Yuhao attracted a lot of boos, the mood of everyone in the imperial capital was very low and depressed, and at this time, everyone thought that even the works of Zhao Yunming and Wu Yuhao were disliked, and the rise of Chinese painting seemed hopeless. But there is one exception, and that is Professor Xu.
Although the works of Zhao Yunming and Wu Yuhao attracted a lot of boos, it did not affect Professor Xu's confidence, he still believed that Lu Dongchen's works would definitely be able to shock the audience, and I have to say that Professor Xu's trust in Lu Dongchen has reached a blind point.
And Lu Qiaohui beside him is not as confident as Professor Xu, she is now
I've started to shake a little bit in my heart.
After the last Gulu ancient painter finished exhibiting his work "The Life of a Sailor", it was finally Professor Xu's turn to play. "The next imperial capital Chinese painting "Rooster Lays Eggs", as for who the author is, it is inconvenient to disclose it due to his own explanation. As the master of ceremonies' words fell, Professor Xu took Lu Qiaohui onto the stage.
The next thing to show is Lu Dongchen's painting "Rooster Lays Eggs" to Lu Qiaohui, as for why he didn't report Lu Dongchen's name, it was also because Lu Dongchen asked for it, he didn't want to cause any trouble because of a painting.
Zhao Yunming and Wu Yuhao and other masters of Chinese painting in the audience were also slightly stunned when they saw Professor Xu and Lu Qiaohui on the stage, they didn't expect that Professor Xu would bring other people's works to the exchange meeting this time.
They know that Professor Xu's vision is high, and he will not use ordinary works, even if they are the works of Zhao Yunming and Wu Yuhao, to participate in the exchange meeting.
As soon as some Western painters heard that the next thing to be displayed was the Chinese painting of the imperial capital, they had already lost half of their interest, and they did not look down on the Chinese painting of the imperial capital.
Standing on the stage, Professor Xu and Lu Qiaohui slowly opened the painting. As the painting opens little by little, different kinds of birds and various plants, flowers and trees appear in the painting.
The whole painting of "Rooster Laying Eggs" is about 11 meters long and 60 centimeters wide. When the painting was opened, everyone saw that there were at least about 300 species of birds such as peacocks, eagles, cranes, and herons, and nearly 100 kinds of plants and flowers such as osmanthus, peach blossoms, pines and cypresses, osmanthus trees, and sycamores.
The picture scroll of this flock of birds surrounds the plane tree, the crane stands on the pine tree, implying that the virtue is high, the hope of the people returns, prolonging life, longevity, longevity and longevity; the magpie stands on the plum branch, representing that the insult has gone, the happy event is coming, the auspicious shines, and everything is good; the mandarin ducks snuggle up to each other, symbolizing the intimacy of lovers, the love of husband and wife, do not abandon or leave, and grow old together.
Lv Dongchen integrates birds, insects, fish, flowers and trees into the four seasons and places them in the vast nature, so that the painting is integrated into nature and integrated with nature, so as to achieve a more natural, more harmonious, magnificent picture and extraordinary bearing.
"Hey, how does this rooster lay eggs around this plane tree? Doesn't it mean that the rooster lays eggs? What about the phoenix?"
"Yes, when he said that, I also found out that this painting really doesn't seem to have a rooster. Another person said.
Then the second, the third.... Then the people in this hall saw that there was really no rooster in this painting, and this "Rooster Lays Eggs" without a rooster became a joke.
"Haha, this imperial capital is really funny, and there is no rooster in "Rooster Laying Eggs", isn't this here to be funny!
"Some Western painters have already used the broken imperial language to ridicule the people of the imperial capital.
"yes, a rooster without a rooster lays eggs, haha. ”
", don't stand on the stage anymore and be embarrassed. For a moment, the entire hall was filled with all kinds of insults and mockery.
And the people of the imperial capital also felt very embarrassed, and some of them who were a little hot-tempered had already insulted Professor Xu on the stage.
When they first saw this painting, they were all amazed by the layout of the painting, because the layout of the painting has been extremely delicate and perfect.
But this painting is just like those foreigners say, this "Rooster Lays Eggs" lacks a rooster, that is, it lacks a soul, and it becomes a joke.
The faces of Professor Xu and Lu Qiaohui on the stage were not much better, at this time Lu Qiaohui had cursed Lu Dongchen countless times in her heart, since this bastard forgot to draw the most important cock, wouldn't it hurt her and Professor Xu.
Professor Xu was also very puzzled at this time, he didn't know why Lu Dongchen didn't paint the rooster in this painting, he didn't think it was caused by Lu Dongchen's negligence, with Lu Dongchen's delicate mind to paint such birds, birds, flowers and trees in one painting, he would not be careless enough to forget to paint the rooster at all.
So he believed that Lu Dongchen must have a reason for doing this, but as for why, he couldn't tell, and sure enough, at this time, Professor Xu still had blind confidence in Lu Dongchen.
That is, when everyone ridiculed and insulted Professor Xu and Lu Qiaohui on the stage, the sky outside the hall became fiery red, as if the entire sky was burning.
When everyone inside the hall saw this phenomenon outside, everyone went to the windows of the hall to observe the scene, and the people outside the hall also raised their heads.
At this time, the sky was full of red, and the clouds were rolling, as if they were being boiled, and then a chicken head, swallow jaw, snake neck, turtle back, fish tail, and a colorful giant bird flew out of the clouds, hovering in the air and chirping.
"This, this is the Divine Bird Rooster. "Everyone on the imperial capital side of the guild hall has recognized that it is the divine bird rooster in the air, so they all cries excitedly.
They have seen the image of the rooster in ancient books, it is exactly the same as the one in the air, but I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see the real rooster today.
Hearing the words of the people in the imperial capital, the Western painters were also very excited, this is a mythical bird, and it is an honor for them to see the last time.
"The rooster is born, the sky is auspicious, God bless the imperial capital!" Some old people outside the hall were already kneeling down excitedly.
For a while, the entire quack people bowed down to the rooster in the air, hoping for good luck.
