Chapter 22: Subduing Zhuge Qiang
Qin Feng smiled slightly: "Zhuge Qiang, you said this a little early. It's also a little too arrogant. As far as I know, what other rule have you set that if you want to invite you out of the mountain, you must surpass you in terms of overall strength?"
Zhuge Qiang said proudly: "Of course, do you think it is necessary for me to serve someone who is not as good as me?"
Qin Feng nodded: "You're right, you do have a lot of character, I like it very much." ”
Zhuge Qiang glared at Qin Feng and said, "How far is it, how far is it, Lao Tzu is not engaged in the base!"
Qin Feng said angrily: "Why are your thoughts so dirty, I mean I appreciate you." ”
Zhuge Qiang said: "Lao Tzu doesn't need your appreciation. Speaking of this, Zhuge Qiang suddenly became angry and said: "I went, and I was almost abducted into the ditch by you, I came down this time to want you to explain to me clearly, why do you say that my calligraphy and painting level is not good, and what do you say that my painting level is not even as good as your junior high school level, I think you are bragging and not paying taxes, right?"
Qin Feng walked to Zhuge Qiang's banner calligraphy work without slowness, and said with a smile: "Zhuge Qiang, then I will comment on your work of "Teacher Table" on the spot?"
Zhuge Qiang put his hands behind his back with disdain on his face and said, "I want to hear about it." ”
Between speaking, Zhuge Qiang's tone was very arrogant, and he didn't seem to take Qin Feng in his eyes at all. In his opinion, Qin Feng is so young, it is impossible for him to have such a high level of attainment in Chinese studies. What's more, in today's impetuous society, there are not many people who can carefully study the classics of Chinese culture and inherit the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting like themselves. And even if there is, it is impossible to have such a high talent of your own. He is full of confidence in himself!
Qin Feng naturally saw the arrogance in Zhuge Qiang's tone, and he was not in a hurry, and said in a calm tone: "If I guess correctly, before you copied the teacher's table, you copied a large number of Zhao Mengfu's book "The Master's Table", and the work you copied was originally stored in the Palace Museum, 29.2 centimeters in length and 117 centimeters in width. ”
As soon as the connoisseur stretched out his hand, he knew if there was one, Qin Feng's first sentence came out, the expression on Zhuge Qiang's face became solemn, and when he looked at Qin Feng again, the contempt in his eyes had disappeared.
Because Qin Feng said it quite accurately, his copy of this work is Zhao Mengfu's book "The Teacher's Table".
Qin Feng continued: "The original work in the Forbidden City was the work of Zhao Mengfu after he was 60 years old, at that time, Zhao Mengfu paid more attention to the deep and solid pen power and the vigorous and indulgent pen gesture on the basis of exquisite brushwork and rigorous knotting, so as to integrate the vigor and old age with the posture and ease and ease, and inherited the essence of the "two kings" calligraphy style. Although the original work is not Zhao Mengfu's masterpiece, it is written with a letter pen, and the dot painting echoes with anticipation, so that the turn is light and flexible, and the structure is sparse and dense.
Let's take a look at your work, although on the surface, it is a little similar to Zhao Mengfu's original work, and it is also the pinnacle of work, but you have ignored one thing, that is, your state of mind at this moment, you are arrogant, ambitious, wild and uninhibited, although you try your best to copy, but when you write, your character is naturally integrated into your calligraphy works, but your personality style and Zhao Mengfu's mood when writing the original work is in great conflict, which also leads to your work Although it is similar to the original, it lacks a bit of agility and nature, and there are a few more twists and unwillingnessAlthough you are desperately trying to incorporate your character into this work, IMHO, if you really want to express your style, it is very inappropriate to copy this work.
That's the biggest flaw of your work!"
After Qin Feng finished speaking, Zhuge Qiang was silent.
What Qin Feng said just now pointed out the contradictory mood he had when he was writing, as if he had seen it on the spot.
From this point of view, this Qin Feng in front of him is really an expert.
Zhuge Qiang raised his eyebrows upward, squinted his eyes and said, "Listening to your tone just now, it seems that in addition to the problem you just said, there are other failures in my work?"
Qin Feng nodded: "Of course, in the original work of "The Teacher's Table", due to Zhao Mengfu's silent writing, there were some mistakes, such as writing errors such as detachment and derivation, and these typos have been corrected by you in your work.
If you're trying to copy the work to make it realistic, you've failed. If you just want to write this work in the style of Zhao Mengfu at that time, then you still fail.
So, these few typos are precisely one of the failures in your work!"
After Qin Feng finished speaking, Zhuge Qiang was silent, and after carefully examining this work for a long time, he suddenly said with a wry smile: "Okay, you are right! I admit that this work is indeed not a small problem, but you just said that my painting works are not even as good as your junior high school level, I am not convinced by this, you have the ability to paint on the spot, I want to see, what is your level?"
Qin Feng smiled and said unceremoniously: "Okay, bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"
Xiao Song was very eye-catching, and immediately took the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone and placed it on the bookcase in the living room.
Qin Feng pointed to the landscape painting on the west side of the living room and said, "Zhuge Qiang, look at it, I will also paint a work that is the same as the "Walking Song" by Ma Yuan of the Southern Song Dynasty that you copied. ”
After speaking, Qin Feng first carefully grinded, pondered, and composed, and then, the pen walked the dragon and snake, and in less than 1 hour, the ink version of "Walking Song" was freshly baked.
When Qin Feng was moving his pen like the wind, Zhuge Qiang was already paying full attention to his every move, and when Qin Feng finally used the brush to trace the Ma Yuanling seal, Zhuge Qiang took a deep breath, and his face showed a trace of bitterness.
Qin Feng put down the brush, wiped his hands, and said with a smile: "Zhuge Qiang, how is this painting of mine?"
Zhuge Qiang said bitterly: "I admit that your painting level is indeed higher than mine, especially just a glance at my work, and you didn't use the original to copy it at all. In particular, it can be seen from the order in which you put down your pen that you know the layout of the corner of this "Walking Song" well, whether it is a distant mountain, a palace, or a combination of movement and stillness of sparse willows and green bamboos, it has reached the level of more than nine points in the original work, and the overall layout of your painting is connected as a whole, giving people an ethereal and natural feeling, which is very close to the level of the original. Without a sufficiently in-depth understanding of the painting, it is simply impossible to achieve it. I'm convinced. ”
When Qin Feng heard this, he immediately got off the donkey down the slope, and said with a smug smile: "Zhuge Qiang, since this is the case, shouldn't you follow me out of the mountain?"
Zhuge Qiang sneered disdainfully: "If you want me to go out of the mountain, it's not so easy, I might as well tell you, I'm proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, if you are slightly better than me in calligraphy and painting, I believe that in chess, you may not be able to win me." Let's play three games of Go first, and then three games of chess, and if you can convince me, then I will go out with you, otherwise, if you can't even win a game against me, I won't go out with you. ”
Fan Hong gradually said with some dissatisfaction: "I said the dog-headed military master, you have nothing to eat and hold on, when are these six games of chess over! ”
Zhuge Qiang glared at Fan Hongjian fiercely and said, "Fan Fatty, are you no longer cheap? You don't understand anything and you bring people to bother me, it's bad luck to have a high school classmate like you!"
Speaking of this, Zhuge Qiang looked at Qin Feng and said: "You heard clearly, the three questions I asked Xiao Song to test you before were the test of your greeting level, those who do great things, if the cultural level is not good, and they do not have enough confidence in the culture of their motherland, it is impossible for such a person to achieve great things."
Playing Go tests your overall view and ability to judge the situation, while playing chess tests your logical thinking and memory ability and on-the-spot decision-making ability. How about it, how good is your chess game? If you want me to get out of the mountain, I will win in chess first. ”
Qin Feng smiled slightly: "Okay, then let's try it." I don't know exactly what level I'm at. ”
Subsequently, the Go competition between Qin Feng and Zhuge Qiang officially began.
In the first game, the two fought for 3 hours, and Qin Feng lost with 2 eyes! In the second game, the two fought for 4 hours, Qin Feng narrowly won with one eye, and in the third game, Qin Feng lost again with 2 eyes!
After these three rounds were over, Zhuge Qiang's eyes looking at Qin Feng had completely changed.
If at the beginning, he still had a condescending sense of looking down on Qin Feng, then at this moment, he already regarded Qin Feng as an opponent at the same level as himself.
Through these three games of Go, Zhuge Qiang saw Qin Feng's style of doing things.
At the beginning, Zhuge Qiang was really very unsuitable for Qin Feng's aggressive chess style, and was a little passive, but after becoming familiar with Qin Feng's chess style, he began to frequently use strange moves, dangerous moves, and constantly disrupted Qin Feng's rhythm, which made Qin Feng tired of coping, and finally lost two games to himself.
But through these three games of Go, Zhuge Qiang has already seen Qin Feng's style of acting and has a little more affection for him!
Chess is like people, people are like chess. Playing chess is a game of wisdom, and a character is examined.
At this moment, after more than 8 hours of playing between the two, Fan Hongjian and Xiao Song had already fallen asleep on the sofa. And the sky is already dark!
Zhuge Qiang looked at Qin Feng provocatively and said: "Qin Feng, in three games of Go, if you lose two games, it is equivalent to losing half of the country, if you lose three more games of chess, you will completely lose the opportunity to invite me out of the mountain." What are your plans now?Is this the end of today's game, or are you going to go back and study and refine for a while before you come back to play against me?"
Qin Feng smiled slightly: "Since it is rare to meet an opponent, it is naturally refreshing to have a hearty battle." Go ahead!"
Zhuge Qiang nodded, what he said just now was also a test of Qin Feng, wanting to see if he was the kind of cautious person, if Qin Feng said on the spot that he would go back to study it and play again, then Zhuge Qiang would definitely not go out of the mountain with Qin Feng again. Because this shows that Qin Feng cares too much about the gains and losses in front of him, it is impossible for such a person to achieve great things.
And Qin Feng's choice was not only unexpected by him, but also reasonable.
Subsequently, the chess board was laid down, and the two fought three games in a row again!
Only this time, compared to the subtle calculations of Go, Xiangqi tests the player's ability to make decisions on the spot and make trade-offs. Chess masters tend to have strong leadership!
Qin Feng's performance in chess was far stronger than that of Go, and the three games were over in less than five hours, and Qin Feng ended the game with a record of three wins in three games.
In fact, when Qin Feng won two games in a row, the game could be declared over, but Zhuge Qiang was a little unwilling and asked for the third set.
In the third game, Zhuge Qiang used a very strange routine, wanting to catch Qin Feng off guard, but Qin Feng's talent in chess was much higher than that of Go, and his sensitivity to the situation on the chessboard was far beyond Zhuge Qiang's imagination.
Qin Feng yawned, looked at Zhuge Qiang and said, "How about it, following someone like me, I shouldn't have wronged you, right?"
Zhuge Qiang said with a wry smile: "Okay, I admit that you are indeed a very strong leader, but it's a pity, I think my Zhuge Qiang has such lofty ambitions, and I have rejected so many warm invitations from official tycoons and business tycoons, and I want to find a master for myself, but I didn't expect that it would be planted in the hands of a young man like you, I really regret it!"
While speaking, Zhuge Qiang showed a crying and laughing expression on his face.
At this time, Fan Honggradually suddenly opened his eyes and said excitedly: "Zhuge Qiang, so you, a sullen man, finally agreed to follow my boss out of the mountain?"
Zhuge Qiang was depressed at this moment, and when he heard Fan Hongji's gong-like voice, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly looked at Qin Feng with a smile on his face and said: "Boss Qin Feng, it's not impossible to let me out of the mountain, but in the future, Fan Hong will gradually call me second brother!"
Fan Hong gradually said angrily: "No! Absolutely not! I was the first to follow the boss, according to the rules, I should be the second brother anyway! Boss, you have to call the shots for me!"
Zhuge Qiang laughed for a while: "Boss Qin Feng, if you don't agree to my request, I won't go out of the mountain." ”
Qin Feng's gaze fell on Fan Hongji's face with tenderness.
Fan Hong suddenly felt that his scalp was a little numb, and his face showed a trace of grief and indignation, and he said with a sad face: "Boss, Boss Qin, my own brother, I am the earliest little brother who followed you, can you bear to watch an outsider ride on your little brother's head and? I think back then, when I was in high school, this grandson didn't cheat me, and now let me be my second brother, how will I live in the future." ”
Qin Feng gently patted Fan Hongji's shoulder and said softly: "Third brother, you still have to look at it a little!
Zhuge Qiang immediately looked at Fan Hongjian with a smug face and said: "Fan Laosan, immediately call the second brother to listen! Oh, I think back then, when you were in high school, you were the third child in our dormitory, in order to compete with me for the position of the second brother, you deceived us in a dormitory for three years, and only when I took the college entrance examination did I know that you were the youngest in our dormitory." Hurry up, call the second brother to listen. ”
Qin Feng was also taken aback when he heard this, he didn't expect that Fan Hongjian would have such a glorious history, so it seems that this Fan Fat Man's way of thinking is really different from ordinary people.
Fan Hong gradually looked at Qin Feng with a desperate face and said, "Boss, you won't be so cruel to me, right?"
Qin Feng sighed and said: "How can you not bow your head under the low eaves, if you have Zhuge Qiang's ability, it is not impossible for you to be the second child." But are you successful? Without Zhuge Qiang, how can we rescue my mother?"
When Fan Hong heard this, although there were a thousand reluctances in his heart, thinking of Aunt Qin's situation at this moment, he could only hold back his grievances and look at Fan Hongjian and said in a voice as small as a mosquito: "Second brother." ”
Zhuge Qiang frowned and said, "The voice is too small. ”
Fan Hong gradually glared at Zhuge Qiang, and said loudly word by word: "Second brother, second brother, second brother!" After saying three sentences, the thief suddenly smiled and said: "Zhuge Er, now, you are satisfied!"
After finishing speaking, Fan Hong suddenly laughed proudly: "Haha, I finally don't have to be the second child, finally someone takes the initiative to be the second child." What's so bad about being the third? I don't want to be a second child. Hey, happy, happy, the people are so happy today!"
After Zhuge Qiang heard Fan Hongji's words, he was dumbfounded. Looking at Fan Hongji, who was dancing excitedly, he was as disgusted as if he had eaten a hundred flies.
Even Zhuge Qiang did not expect that the most unsuccessful game in his life would be the battle between him and Fan Hongjian today! This was the battle of his brilliant and dazzling life, the darkest moment. He has calculated this and that all his life, and he is almost invincible, but he was actually calculated by a fat man he looked down on the most!
Qin Feng watched these two living treasures fighting over there, and couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face, and secretly said in his heart: "What kind of strange freaks did my team recruit." I really hope that this Zhuge Qiang will not disappoint me. ”
Speaking of this, Qin Feng looked at Zhuge Qiang and Fan Hongjian and said: "Okay, I said two, now we haven't reached the time to relax, we are facing a big problem next, that is, how to get Zhuge Qiang into Xue's Hongyuan Electronics Company, I estimate that Fan Fatzi, it is impossible for you to copy the matter of entering the company again, after all, Jiang Wenchao and others are not fools." ”
Zhuge Qiang smiled slightly and said, "Boss, you don't need to worry about this matter, I can handle it myself." Well, it's almost dawn now, and we haven't slept all night. This morning, you can rest at my place first, and we will meet at the company in the afternoon!"
Qin Feng was a little shocked and said, "Do you have a way to enter Xue's Hongyuan Electronics Company?"
Zhuge Qiang smiled slightly, and said with a confident face: "Boss, why did you choose me? Isn't it because I have skills that others don't have? If I don't show my level, I'm afraid you don't feel at ease with me, boss!
