Since the beginning of the new century, the Chinese painting world has gradually begun to divide into two factions.

One is the traditional school, called the old school, etc., which insists that the painting world should use ink painting style and other painting methods full of Chinese style.

The other is the innovative school, called the new school, which always adheres to the creative belief of taking innovation as the core, and the favorite is to promote newcomers, and the ranking within the faction is generally not based on seniority and experience, but is always based on strength.

Therefore, it is not surprising that in the new school, some high-level positions are held by young people.

Before Ren Wu, at the age of 18, he became the president of the Yangcheng Calligraphy and Painting Association, and he became the person with the highest status in the urban painting world at a young age.

At that time, he was in the limelight of the new school, not only in the new school, but also in the old school, and his name was well-known.

It can be said that at that time, he was the only painter who convinced both the old and the new.

In addition, at that time, the country intended to reconcile the two factions, so it chose to let Ren Wu become a kink that united the two factions.

Therefore, when Ren Wucai reached the age of 20, he became an internationally famous painter, although this is inseparable from his own talent and superb painting skills, but if there were no people behind him, Ren Wucai's time to become famous may be postponed for many years.

However, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and Ren Wu, who was lifted above the clouds in the sky, was far more ruthless and embarrassed than others when he fell.

Although there were many people who wanted Ren Wu to reach the top and become the one who reorganized the painting world, there were also many people who did not want to see this scene.

It can be said that when the plagiarism incident occurred at that time, Ren Wu had no power to fight back, and was trampled on by many seniors, and a large part of it was made by those people.

And in the excitement of the crowd at that time, those who originally wanted to keep Ren Wu avoided Ren Wu in order to avoid getting into trouble, and it can be said that their retreat made Ren Wu feel discouraged, and finally chose to come to Yingzhou to live in seclusion.

Thinking of the events of the year, Ren Fei's heart was not deeply touched, he seemed to be watching a very cheesy movie, except for feeling the reality of human nature and Ren Wu's helplessness, Ren Fei did not have much empathy.

However, after digging through these memories, Ren Fei also found some memories about the art world.

Although it is the new school and the old school, Ren Fei has not seen the new school painters in their 60s, and also the old school painters in their 20s.

Originally, this was just an ideological dispute, but as time went by, the discussion between the two factions, which was originally based on the idea of mutual progress, gradually became full of flavor.

With the words of the old school former leader Huang Gufeng, "The new is not as good as the old." ”

It can be regarded as completely establishing the confrontation between the two factions.

In his memory, the highest status among the old-fashioned people are the five old people who have been following the high morality and respect of the painting world since the reform period, leading the Chinese painting world.

They are Zhang Tiansheng, president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association of Hunan Province, Yue Guidong, president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association of Guizhou Province, Qin Shanhai, president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association of Fujian Province, Feng Yueyun, president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association of Anhui Province, and Zhao Qingguang, president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association of Zhejiang Province.

It can be said that the old-school people are all distributed in the south of China, which may also have something to do with Huang Gufeng as a southerner, and it is said that he is now living in seclusion in the south of the Yangtze River, often going back and forth between Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Compared with the old school, most of the power of the new school is concentrated in the north.

Among them, the leader of the new school, Huang Ansheng, is the president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association in the capital of Yanjing, and also serves as the president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association of the entire Yi Province.

Under him are An Tianhu, president of the Jin Provincial Calligraphy and Painting Association, Beigong Yun, president of the Sichuan Shu Calligraphy and Painting Association, Chen Kaitian, president of the Lu Provincial Calligraphy and Painting Association, Li Xuan, president of the Liao Provincial Calligraphy and Painting Association, and Zhao Siying, president of the Ji Provincial Calligraphy and Painting Association.

The entire Chinese painting and calligraphy circle is composed of these 11 people leading two factions.

Just when Ren Fei was thinking about those people in the calligraphy and painting world.

Far away in Yanjing, China, next to Shuimu University, in a small garden with pleasant scenery and fragrant birds.

There were two groups of people who were violently discussing him, oh no, about Kishimoto's manga.

In a small, quaint courtyard, there were more than a dozen people sitting at a huge round stone table, discussing problems, and even spitting out a lot of saliva.

"Smack!"

As he spoke, he saw an old man in his 60s talking excitedly, slapped him on the stone table, stood up and shouted at a man who looked to be in his 30s sitting opposite him: "Huang Ansheng, I said no, it just doesn't work, we can't let this cartoon become the designated painting of the Calligraphy and Painting Association." ”

"Old Feng, I respect you as a senior and don't want to conflict with you, but if you continue to make trouble like this, don't blame the little nephew for not giving you a good face. Seeing the hideousness on the old man's face, the face of the man known as Huang Ansheng couldn't help but turn a little gloomy, and he also stood up and said.

Since he became the acting president of the General Association of Calligraphy and Painting, no one dared to look at him like this, so he couldn't help but resent the old Feng Yueyun in his mouth for a while.

"You, you, you kid, what are you angry, if it weren't for your father Huang Gufeng's sake, do you think you can be the acting president? Hearing Huang Ansheng's words, the old man known as Feng Lao was immediately furious.

Just when the two of them were about to fight, an old man who had quietly watched the two quarrel before and took a sip of tea from time to time said in a very loud voice: "Okay, you are all people of status, why are you like a shrew scolding the street here." ”

Uncle Zhang's words, the little nephew didn't dare to disobey. Glancing at the old man who spoke, Huang Ansheng arched his hand towards him and sat down.

"Big brother, this... Glancing at the old man, Old Feng finally stopped saying anything and sat down with him.

It can be seen that the old man who spoke before must be a very high-status and respected person.

If Ren Fei was here at this time, he would definitely know the old man who spoke before, who was Zhang Tiansheng, the president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association of Hunan Province.

Zhang Tiansheng, born in 1943, 65 years old this year, a native of Hunan Province, has painted countless works in his life, and is only second only to Huang Gufeng in the entire modern Chinese painting and calligraphy circle, and is also a well-known painter in the world.

It can be said that after his death, he can be compared with the ancient Chinese painting saint Wu Daozi, Tang Bohu and other calligraphy and painting masters.

If it weren't for his reluctance to be the president, Huang Ansheng would not have become the acting president.

You must know that even Huang Ansheng, who can be ranked in the top ten in the Chinese calligraphy and painting industry, can only be an acting president, which shows how strong Zhang Tiansheng's painting skills are.

You must know that there are three people in the Chinese painting world who are world-renowned figures, one of whom is the pinnacle of the modern Chinese painting and calligraphy circle, the founder of the Chinese Painting and Calligraphy Association, Huang Gufeng.

And the second place is this Zhang Tiansheng, not only is not weaker than Huang Gufeng in painting skills, but also has made a lot of contributions to the Chinese calligraphy and painting industry, and it can be said that he is a real master of calligraphy and painting.

And the third place, is Ren Wu, however, this is just the result of the Chinese authorities' use of means, desperate propaganda, if you talk about strength and contribution to Huaxia, Ren Wu is far from being able to be compared with the previous two, and even in terms of painting skills, it can only be ranked outside the 10th.

Not to mention the 11 presidents of the two factions, even the presidents of associations in other provinces are not worse than Ren Wu in terms of painting skills, and there are even some people who are far more powerful than Ren Wu.

It's just that in the atmosphere at that time, Ren Wu became the one standing in the wind, so he soared into the sky.

"Ahem, today, everyone gathered together to discuss whether to put a very popular painting on the Internet, comics, in the designated painting of our Calligraphy and Painting Association. ”

Saying that, Zhang Tiansheng slowly stood up, looked around at everyone, and continued, "We all know what the meaning of the designated painting is, our association has been established for 40 years, during which there have been countless painting style painting skills, but until now, there are only a few paintings that can become the designated painting type of our association, and ten fingers can be counted. ”

"Because of the prestige of our association in China, even universities in China teach painting skills according to the designated types of paintings we provide, so we must be very careful in choosing the types of paintings. ”

Hearing Zhang Tiansheng's words, Huang Ansheng thought that he was going to face Feng Yueyun, but his face suddenly changed, and he wanted to persuade, "Uncle Zhang, I..."

"Listen to me first. Seeing Huang Ansheng's expression, Zhang Tiansheng also knew what he was thinking, so he couldn't help but raise his hand to interrupt.

"Since the Neolithic Age, painting has had a preliminary shape, and it can also grasp the main characteristics of people, fish, birds, flowers and trees, and express the beliefs and wishes of the author. ”

As for the Spring and Autumn Period, the content of the painting gradually reflected more of the social life at that time, and the image depicted was lively and vivid, and there was a huge leap in technique. ”

"In the later Qin and Han dynasties, the Three Kingdoms and the Jin Dynasty, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the Ming and Qing Dynasties, each dynasty and each generation, the art of painting is constantly improving and improving. ”

"If you want to improve a technology, you can't stop moving, even if there are thorns in front of you, you dare to force yourself, if this comic really has potential, then even if we stop it, it will become an existence that we can't ignore, so... Speaking of this, Zhang Tiansheng couldn't help but pause and glanced at everyone.

Then he said slowly, "We shouldn't be in such a hurry, let's take a look first, look slowly, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry." ”

After speaking, Zhang Tiansheng picked up the purple sand teapot on the table and slowly walked towards the room on the side.

"Big brother, what does this mean?" Seeing Zhang Tiansheng leave in a dazzled manner, Feng Yueyun was at a loss for a while, so she had to hurriedly follow.

Seeing that Zhang Tiansheng and Feng Yueyun had left, the others glanced at each other, and three of them, who were also in their 60s, followed Zhang Tiansheng and them into the house after glancing at each other, leaving only the others.

"What does that mean? Is it just for us to watch like this and not care about anything?" After seeing that Zhang Tiansheng's five old men had left, a man in his 40s sitting next to Huang Ansheng frowned and asked Huang Ansheng.

"Well, since Uncle Zhang has said so, let's watch it first, I also want to see what kind of sparks this cartoon will show. ”

Seeing this scene, Huang Ansheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

Zhang Tiansheng is also an old-school leader, if he resolutely disagrees with Huang Ansheng, Huang Ansheng will not only be very passive, but also at a disadvantage.

After all, if he didn't rely on his father, he would just be a backward in the painting world, far inferior to Zhang Tiansheng's status in the painting world, it can be said that if Zhang Tiansheng wanted to, as long as he said a word, he could remove Huang Ansheng, the acting president.

So if Huang Ansheng is not cautious, the best result he can think of before the meeting is now, Zhang Tiansheng does not help each other, so that Huang Ansheng can wrestle with the old-fashioned people led by Feng Yueyun.

Therefore, when he saw Zhang Tiansheng ignoring him, Huang Ansheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
