Chapter 554: Finding Someone Game
Yang Xixi didn't think there was anything wrong with arranging the 'bustling city' at Merrill Lynch Gallery, but the audience couldn't enjoy it, which was a painful and happy thing for the painter, and she didn't want to disappoint the audience.
"Actually, even if you look for a big showroom, it's useless. Jiang Ruoxin shook her head: "The 'bustling city' is big enough, but it can't stand too many audiences." Even if you find an exhibition hall of tens of thousands of square meters, although the number of visitors that can be accommodated has increased significantly, there are still only about 100 people who can see the audience of the 'bustling city' at the same time. ”
"What should I do then?" Yang Xixi grabbed her hair with some distress.
"It's not as much trouble as you think. Li Feng said disapprovingly: "If you want a large number of viewers to watch the paintings at the same time, it is definitely impossible." The only way is to take some high-definition pictures and videos and post them online. ”
"With photos and videos, it's much worse. Yang Xixi said with a bitter face.
"That can't be helped. Li Feng shook his head: "There is only one painting, and it is impossible to satisfy everyone." If you want to see the painting on the spot, you can only go there later. No, that's more than a decade later. ”
"That's all there is to it. Yang Xixi nodded helplessly.
"Actually, you can also find something for the audience to do, which can increase the attractiveness of watching photos and videos. Li Feng smiled: "I remember Yun Rong didn't count how many people are in your entire painting?"
Yang Xixi nodded, the 'bustling city' has been on the bamboo forest for nearly a month, and it was only taken to the exhibition when everyone was tired of seeing it.
The first thing I got tired of watching was Yun Rong.
She didn't have enough experience, and she didn't feel deeply enough about this painting, and she didn't feel much fun in a few days. However, because everyone went to see the painting every day, she was bored by herself, so she stayed in the studio all the time.
Amusing herself, she found herself a difficult task, that is, to count how many people are in this painting.
As a result, after counting it all over again, five hundred and seventy-three.
asked Yang Xixi, and the answer completely exceeded her expectations. There are a total of 1,234 people in this painting, and she has not found even half of them.
The main reason is that these missing people are deeply hidden. Some can only see a corner of clothing, and some can only be seen on the reflective glass door. The most outrageous thing is that some even need to see a little bit from other people's eyes, and they need to hold a magnifying glass to see.
In terms of framing and details, Yang Xixi spent a year designing and laying out. It is precisely because of this that she felt that if she wanted to complete this painting, it would take more than ten years, or even longer. It's just that I didn't expect to be in excellent condition in the past few years, and I spent a lot of time on this painting every day, and it only took four years to get it done.
Yun Rong was a little unconvinced, but unfortunately, it wasn't until the 'bustling city' was sent to the exhibition that she found more than 700 people, and there were still more than 500 people missing.
"Throwing this question on the Internet, I believe it will soon cause a craze to find people. Li Feng said with a smile: "In addition to this, there is also a search for how many cars, how many men and women there are, etc., which is enough for netizens to be busy for months or even years." It's hard to know that just studying the posts of 'bustling cities' can feed a large number of people. ”
Yang Xixi was overjoyed, this is indeed a good way to divert attention. Netizens like to join in the fun, and it is still very fun to find people, especially to find people who others have not discovered, it will be more fulfilling.
The most important point is that she laid out the painting with great thought in terms of rationality. Not to mention that there is no mistake in the details, but at least, many of the details that should be shown are expressed through various painting methods.
And people are the most important and soul of this painting, and they are also the places where she puts the most energy. Not only is everyone's demeanor vivid, but everyone's movements, clothing, and age are also considered.
Even those who didn't show their faces, such as a vague figure that could only be seen through the car window, and a back figure in the distance, Yang Xixi considered his identity, background, and mood at the time. This also includes the way he draws and processes to prove his existence.
Even if it is researched by tens of millions of people to find out all the people in the 'bustling city', it is not possible to do it in a short period of time.
It's enough for netizens to play for a long time.
If Yang Xixi never broke it, maybe in terms of the number of people alone, there might still be people studying it dozens or hundreds of years later. Because there are quite a few people, it is really difficult to find out.
"By the way, Xixi, 'bustling city' is so popular now, shouldn't you announce that you are the creator?" Jiang Ruoxin said: "Now there are a large number of netizens speculating whether the creator is you, and some painters, knowing that the possibility of being debunked is extremely great, in order to become famous, they also jumped out and said that this painting is their work." If it is not published, it may cause some unnecessary chaos. ”
Yang Xixi nodded, and it was time to announce that he was the creator of this painting.
I concealed it before, just to prove that even if I didn't borrow my previous fame, the 'bustling city' could still achieve its glory.
This has been proven now, so there is no need to hide it.
Li Feng said with a smile: "When you are glorious, don't just make an announcement on Weibo, no matter how bad it is, you have to write some testimonials or something." ”
Yang Xixi nodded.
Roca reminded on the side: "You should also upload the previous drafts of the videos you took when you were drawing, such as those you took when you were drawing. Lest you not be able to prove that you are 100% the creator of the painting, and someone will jump out and question it in the future. ”
Yang Xixi nodded heavily, 'Prosperous City' is one of the two masterpieces she intends to paint in her lifetime, and naturally no doubts are allowed on the creator's side.
After all, it is a very important thing, and Yang Xixi is rarely serious.
Back in the room, she first called Ren Yuhui and asked him to take some high-definition videos and pictures for the 'bustling city'. After carefully thinking for more than two hours, I finally went to Li Feng to retrieve the video files in the studio, and then turned out his previous thick stack of sketches and designs.
It wasn't until the evening of the next day that she officially updated Weibo.
In addition to various evidences that prove that he is the creator of the 'bustling city', there is also an introduction of more than 2,000 words.
The original intention of creating 'Prosperous City' was to find the inspiration and soul of creating 'Prosperous City', and even included the grievances with the Bai family back then, as well as the process of creating 'Prosperous City' and the gratitude to the audience.
sprinkled with enthusiasm, and almost introduced her experience in the past few years.
Finally, there is a little game with the audience to figure out who can count the correct number of people in the painting, and the top three will receive a portrait of each other that she created for each other.
As soon as the news came out, the network was completely boiling.
Once, Yang Xixi has always been very envious of Fang Zihan and Lin Siyun's Weibo fans.
That night, the number of her Weibo followers exceeded one million per minute, and after an hour, the number of followers increased even exceeded 100 million.
There is no one before, and I am afraid that there will be no one who will come after.
There is no suspense, and the little game that Yang Xixi said is also on fire.
High-definition videos and pictures, although not as good as watching paintings on the spot, playing the game of finding people are not affected in any way.
The most important point is that whoever calculates the correct number of people will be able to get a portrait created by Yang Xixi himself.
Before the advent of 'Bustling City', Yang Xixi was already the world's most valuable contemporary painter, with works costing tens of millions of square feet.
After 'bustling city', it is impossible to estimate the extent of her paintings. However, it is predictable that it is no problem for a portrait painting with a small area to break 100 million. If it is carefully conceived, it will not be a problem to reach hundreds of millions.
Being able to count the number of people is even more refreshing than buying a lottery ticket and winning the grand prize.
Of course, this number is not just a random number, but the location of each person must be marked.
Five hundred and ten, five hundred and twenty, five hundred and thirty......
Although many netizens hid it, they did not announce the hidden characters they found. But on the Internet, there are also some netizens who have announced the hidden characters they have found.
The number of people is climbing.
The initial increase was so great that it even exceeded 500 on the same day. But then it slowed down, dozens a day, then a dozen, then a dozen, then a few a day...... It wasn't until a few days, or even longer, that one appeared.
