Chapter 90: A Peerless Masterpiece

Zeng Shaoxiang is a very sensitive person, when he realized that today he was in a comprehensive disadvantage in terms of righteousness and the commanding heights of morality, he immediately sneered and looked at Qin Feng and Zhuge Qiang and said: "I said two, the two of you have a very tacit understanding of singing and harmonizing, but in the art of calligraphy, the competition is not whose eloquence is good, and who can fool people, but whose skills are solid and whose artistic realm is profound."

Since you are so resistant to the current direction of calligraphy development, then I will compete with you for your skills, in this way, let's compete for regular script, this is a very basic calligraphy, but also the core of a test of a person's calligraphy skills. How about the two of us each write a five-character quatrain, and then ask the judges to judge?"

Zhuge Qiang smiled and nodded: "No problem, accompany me to the end." ”

Subsequently, the two of them grinded and wrote with their own pens.

Zhuge Qiang is a person who does things very neatly, whether it is grinding or writing, all in one go.

Three minutes after he finished writing, Zeng Shaoxiang completed it unhurriedly.

This time, Zeng Shaoxiang didn't dare to be righteous, because he knew that he couldn't afford to lose now.

If he loses this game again, he will be in an extremely disadvantageous situation.

Therefore, Zeng Shaoxiang was extremely serious when he wrote regular scripts, and took out all his children's skills.

Regular script was the form of calligraphy he was primarily associated with when he was young, but when he became older and became a senior expert in the Calligraphy Association, he began to focus on ugly calligraphy and no longer insisted on practicing.

But he thought that his foundation was still there, and it was easy to deal with a young man who was twenty or thirty years younger than him.

Zhuge Qiang wrote a poem "Spring Dawn", although the pen is fast, but the words are full of elegant and agile feeling.

Zeng Shaoxiang's regular script is decent, I can't find any major faults, but there is nothing brilliant about it, he wrote "Compassion for Nong".

After the two of them finished speaking, the three judges stepped forward and turned around the fonts of the two for a while.

Afterwards, the three judges returned to the judges' bench.

Zeng Shaoxiang looked at the three judges with a smile and said, "Three judges, the next three will be hard." ”

Director Zhang nodded at Zeng Shaoxiang, then looked at Wang Zhengfei and said, "Mr. Wang, you are an expert in calligraphy appreciation, so you will be the first to comment on this game." ”

Wang Zhengfei was not polite, and said directly: "Okay, after reading the song "Spring Dawn" written by Zhuge Qiang and the song "Compassion for Nong" written by Zeng Shaoxiang just now, I have only one thought in my heart. ”

Zeng Shaoxiang looked at Wang Zhengfei with a smile on his face, he believed that he would definitely win.

Wang Zhengfei continued: "The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves lie on the beach!"

After saying this, Zeng Shaoxiang felt that something was not quite right, and his eyes changed a little.

Wang Zhengfei continued: "Anyone who is proficient in calligraphy knows that judging the quality of a calligraphy work is mainly judged from four directions.

The first is reasonableness and legitimacy. That is, whether it conforms to the rules and laws of calligraphy.

In this sense, Zeng Shaoxiang's works and Zhuge Qiang's works are indistinguishable. Whether it is the pen, the knot, the layout is quite orderly, and the font gives people an excellent visual enjoyment.

At this point, if the maximum score is 10, I can give 8 points to both of them.

The second is to see whether the calligraphy is strong and powerful, whether it can penetrate the back of the paper and enter the wood for three points.

At this level, Zeng Shaoxiang lost, and he lost badly!

Judging from Zeng Shaoxiang's works, although the pen movement, word ending, and layout occasional reading are quite disciplined and skillful, they lose in pen power.

It stands to reason that when it comes to Zeng Shaoxiang's level of calligrapher, he should be able to penetrate the paper back into the wood, but it is a pity that we can see from Zeng Shaoxiang's writing process that Zeng Shaoxiang can write this level of words not because he is diligent in practice, but because his child's skills are very solid, and he worked hard when he was young, but it is a pity that the basic skills of this calligraphy have been abandoned by him.

In stark contrast, although Zhuge Qiang's calligraphy level is not very high, but the victory lies in persistence, from the font point of view, Zhuge Qiang's font is masculine and advantageous, giving people a sense of youth and vigor. This momentum is hidden between the lines, giving people a kind of beautiful enjoyment.

Therefore, at this point, I give 6 points to Zeng Shaoxiang's works and 8 points to Zhuge Qiang's.

The third is to see whether the calligraphy works are beautiful. The basis of Chinese characters is pictograms, which are taken from the images of heaven, earth, sun, moon, mountain, water, grass, wood, birds, beasts, etc., and are refined and summarized by multiplication. A good calligraphy work should write a lively and vibrant image, not to be satisfied with the mediocre collocation of dot painting, the creation of this image is closely related to the meaning, it is controlled by the author's artistic conception, but also by the author's level, skills and thoughts and emotions are limited.

Therefore, the work of a mature calligrapher is often the work of a well-thought-out mind. It is often the intention to come with the heart, the pen with the potential, through the length, size, width, density, natural unevenness of each word, each has its own true state, so that it is beautiful and interesting.

At this point, Zeng Shaoxiang's work has lost decently.

Although Zeng Shaoxiang's works have also been conceived, they are obviously clichΓ©d, and even the conception is incomplete, everyone sees that this drop character and soil character are obviously too casual, lacking the integration with the whole work, and there are several similar fonts, so to speak, this is a complete failure of the work.

The last point is to look at the brilliance of the work.

At this point, I don't want to comment anymore, because Zeng Shaoxiang's work has no charm at all, and the whole work makes people feel uncomfortable how to watch it.

This is the same as the acting skills of actors, some old drama bones act like anything, but some so-called Xiao Xianrou's so-called acting skills are nothing more than staring and staring again, which makes people go directly to the play after watching it for three minutes, and they can't stand it no matter how they watch it.

That's the brilliance of the work.

Therefore, based on the above four points, if the full score is 100 points, I can only give 38 points to Zeng Shaoxiang's works, while Zhuge Qiang's works barely reach 80 points! But that's all. ”

After Wang Zhengfei finished speaking, the audience was shocked.

No one thought that at this moment today, in Zeng Shaoxiang's home field, Zeng Shaoxiang would be criticized by today's judges for being indecent!

What the hell is going on? Isn't it rumored that these judges are all people Zeng Shaoxiang himself has found? How can there be such a situation of not giving face to the master? This is Zeng Shaoxiang's art museum! This is too much of a crackling face, right?

Zeng Shaoxiang was already so angry at this moment that his face turned blue and trembled.

He never thought that this entrepreneur, connoisseur, and collector from Hexi Province, like Qin Feng, would be so faceless.

Zeng Shaoxiang was a little unconvinced, and immediately looked at the Qingxu Daoist and said: "Qingxu Daoist, I'm a little unconvinced, I know that Mr. Wang Zhengfei and Qin Feng are both from Hexi Province, I am skeptical of the results of his comments, and I also ask the Daoist and Director Zhang to uphold justice." ”

Qingxu Dao Chang sighed and said: "Zeng Shaoxiang, to tell the truth, you have studied fame and fortune too much over the years, and you have completely put aside the foundation of calligraphy, what ugly calligraphy, ink calligraphy and closed-eyes calligraphy you have studied all day long, and you have completely deviated from the correct path of calligraphy art, Wang Zhengfei gave you 38 points is already very face-saving, if I let me rate it, I will only give you 28 points for your works!" It's just getting started, and even to put it mildly, the regular script written by those talented young people who practice calligraphy seriously is much stronger than your works.

You don't have any chance of winning this game!"

After listening to the words of Qingxu Dao Chief, Zeng Shaoxiang's face completely changed, and the beads of sweat on his forehead crackled down.

He looked at Director Zhang for help, after all, Director Zhang's art museum had a collection of some of his ugly books.

Director Zhang also sighed and said, "Master Zeng, you are really on the wrong path.

Calligraphy requires diligence and concentration, and your calligraphy has been completely wasted. Your ugly calligraphy works may be famous for a while, but after all, they lack beauty, and after several rounds of hype by public opinion, I am afraid that they will eventually be able to stay and have a collection value, I advise you to change your course and turn back, otherwise, it will be difficult for you to step into the real palace of calligraphy art in this life!"

If Wang Zhengfei's words are like morning bells and dusk drums, then Director Zhang's words are equivalent to sounding the death knell for Zeng Shaoxiang.

He knew he had lost this game!

Lost so abruptly, lost so miserably, lost so decently!

At this moment, Zeng Shaoxiang was like a defenseless monkey standing in the crowd, and that sense of shame penetrated into his heart in all directions, making him have nowhere to escape.

However, Zeng Shaoxiang is an old man after all, and he is even more proficient in thick black studies.

Zeng Shaoxiang realized that this game was no longer difficult to turn around, so he immediately sneered and looked at Qin Feng and said: "Qin Feng, although you won this game, I am not convinced, so do you dare to write a word on stage! It is best to write a work that is exactly the same as mine, I want to see how your level is, if your level is really stronger than mine, I will lose convincingly!"

The eyes of all media reporters and camera lenses were also focused on Qin Feng, because everyone knew that the protagonists of today's competition were originally Qin Feng and Zeng Shaoxiang, but everyone didn't expect that Qin Feng would send his subordinates to come forward in the second game, and he also won the game, so many people thought that Qin Feng didn't know calligraphy, so everyone's curiosity was stimulated at once.

When Zeng Shaoxiang's friends saw this, they all loudly despised Qin Feng and stimulated Qin Feng to appear.

Qin Feng smiled, walked in front of Zeng Shaoxiang, and said with a smile: "Boss Zeng, are you really sure you want me to appear in person?"

Zeng Shaoxiang said slyly: "Of course, today is originally a competition between the two of us, although it is not a violation of the law for you to let someone else take the shot, it is very shameless." Only if you compare with real knives and guns can you show your true level. ”

Qin Feng smiled strangely at Zeng Shaoxiang and said, "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll fulfill Boss Zeng's wish."

Then, Qin Feng stood at Zeng Shaoxiang's table, and he didn't say anything, he directly picked up the brush he used before and covered it with ink, and waved it on the rice paper that had just been laid, and in less than a minute, a complete "Compassion for Nong" was vividly displayed in front of everyone.

As soon as Qin Feng finished writing, Wang Zhengfei had already taken a stride to Qin Feng's side, stretched out his hand to protect the work and said: "Two brothers, two brothers, I plan to collect this work of Qin Feng, don't rob it with me." ”

Although his movements are very fast, the movements of Director Zhang and Qingxu Daoist are not slow, especially Qingxu Daoist, who has taken an elegant step at the moment when Wang Zhengfei moved, and came to Qin Feng's table almost at the same time as Wang Zhengfei, his hand has pressed the corner of Qin Feng's work, and he looked at Wang Zhengfei with a smile on his face and said: "That Mr. Wang, you are a big entrepreneur, well-informed, and have thousands of collections in your hands, I am a poor old man, it is rare to be able to see a work that makes me intoxicated, so don't fight with me!"

As soon as the two of them stood still, Director Zhang's hand had already pressed on the last corner of the work on the table, and he said nervously: "Two, two, you still don't have to fight, this work was written in our Yanjing City, which is also my home field, can you respect me as the master." ”

"No!" Wang Zhengfei and Qingxu Daoist said in unison.

Looking at the three judges who were all experts in the world when they commented on the works of Zhuge Qiang and Zeng Shaoxiang before, they suddenly became ordinary philistines at the moment when Qin Feng finished writing, and they actually put down the posture of a master for a work, this kind of change made many people confused!

All the reporters' cameras were focused on the three judges. The whole scene was silent.

At this moment, Qin Feng was also confused about the performance of the three judges, he looked at the Qingxu Daoist who looked like a master before, and then looked at the big entrepreneur Wang Zhengfei who he was familiar with before, and the director Zhang of Yanjing City, who had a lot of beard, these three people were like three old children, all reached out and grabbed a corner of their work, and they all wanted to take down their own work.

Is it really that good to write yourself?

At this moment, Qin Feng felt very weak.

However, Qin Feng did not forget his task today, so he reminded: "Three judges, I have finished writing, please evaluate the merits of my work and Zeng Shaoxiang's boss Zeng's work!"

Qingxu Daoist was the first to speak, and his tone was a little angry: "There is no comparison between the works of the two of you at all, his work is a stall, and this work of yours has both form and spirit, every word is beautiful alone, the whole is like a proud dragon, the spirit is flamboyant, vivid and lively, looking at it like a symphony with a beautiful melody, and it is like a vivid ink painting, everyone look carefully, from a distance, this work does not look like an old farmer who is bending over to hoe the ground!"

After the Qingxu Daoist finished speaking, everyone looked from afar and suddenly felt a burst of horror, because they really saw the scene of an old farmer hoeing the land with a face full of vicissitudes.

In particular, the reporters were in a state of excitement when they presented the calligraphy work to the live audience on the Internet through the lens adjustment of the camera.

Because they all saw the scene that the Qingxu Daoist said!

Everyone was blown away.

Now, they finally understand why these three out-of-the-world figures are fighting like children for this work.

Wang Zhengfei said in a low voice: "A work can use regular script to create the artistic conception of cursive, itself is already very rare, the most rare thing is that through the author's pen power and overall layout, the whole work has the basis of the painting, faintly giving people the image of an old man hoeing, I estimate that this work should be unprecedented."

This work will be a legendary work in the Chinese calligraphy world for decades and even centuries to come.

After listening to Wang Zhengfei's evaluation, Zeng Shaoxiang was completely dumbfounded.

He has always thought that Qin Feng's calligraphy level should not be very good, even if he really knows calligraphy, the level should be average, but as soon as the expert makes a move, he will know if there is any, even if there is no evaluation of these three experts, he can also see that Qin Feng's calligraphy work will definitely throw more than 90% of the calligraphers out of several streets.

As soon as this calligraphy work is placed there, it has a natural charm!

This is a work of art with artistic appeal!

Zeng Shaoxiang looked at the young Qin Feng in front of him, and a burst of sourness and unwillingness suddenly rose in his heart!

At this moment, he knew that he had lost today!

Do you really want him to give Qin Feng's mother's ancient book of "Tao Te Ching" to Qin Feng?
