Chapter 0009 Architectural Design
Yunhu had been awake for a while, and he heard the sound of a pencil scratching on the paper, and knew that Su Tuo was drawing. Before today, he had always thought that his painting level was on par with Su Tuo's, well, just as bad. But the exam in the morning made him suddenly realize the gap between the two. You don't need to see what Su Tuo drew at that time, just look at the invigilator's nervous expression, you can understand everything.
But why is that? I started to learn painting with him, and it only took a year in total. None of us have learned before, so why did the final result be so different. Was he really a genius? He had been thinking about this question before going to bed, and finally he was sure that Su Tuo was a genius in painting.
But now, the scene in front of him directly overturned his conclusion.
I saw Su Tuo, who was sitting on the bed without stopping, with a stack of sketches beside him, and the thickness must be about 100 or so. He turned from envy to admiration for Su Tuo: it turned out that he worked so hard, and in his hometown before, he didn't know that Su Tuo would practice painting every day and practice so hard. Judging from the current posture, he will not be able to draw tens of thousands of pictures this year?
"Hey, Yunhu, are you awake?"
"Uh, just woke up. What about drawing? That's too hard, isn't it? ”
"It's okay to be idle, just practice casually. I happen to be tired of painting, so let's go out to eat. ”
"Didn't you eat at noon?"
Such as some funny answers, Su Tuo did not feel disobedient. After they had a big meal at noon, they did say that they would endure it at night and talk about it tomorrow. At this time, he suddenly talked about eating, and Yunhu naturally felt very strange. Su Tuo had to eat it, because he ran around the antique street for an afternoon, and also learned a gourd drawing, and after coming back, he drew more than 100 sketches in a row. The consumption of mental labor is not much lower than the physical exertion, and now he is so hungry that his chest is close to his back.
"What I said at noon today can be invalidated, I earned 500 yuan selling paintings in the antique street today. It cost more than 100 to buy picture clips and paper, and now there are more than 300, so we should have enough to eat these days. ”
"That's great, I'm hungry too, and I don't dare to get out of bed if you don't see me. Hey, you're still awesome. "Since coming to the capital, the money of the two of them has been used together, and most of the money is Yunhu's. So Su Tuo said that he had earned money and was going to eat, and Yunhu also felt that it was right, and they were used to each other.
The two walked out of the small hotel and saw that it was already dark. Walking down the street towards the snack street, discussing what to eat as we walked, we finally agreed to eat ramen. If you want a big bowl, you have to add meat, and you have to have a plate of small cold dishes, well, you have to mix cowpeas with kelp shreds.
On this happy journey, Yunhu didn't ask Su Tuo how he earned the money. He made up the scene by himself: Su Tuo held a large stack of sketches and asked others to pick them, and finally sold one or two hundred copies before earning 500 yuan. Well, that's definitely the case, because that's the only way to make the most sense.

Feng Yimo is an artist who has studied both Chinese and Western cultures, and is currently the president of China University of Arts. He first studied Chinese painting, and then went to Russia to further his studies, studying Western oil painting. After returning to China, he has been engaged in art creation for a long time, and at the same time has done academic research in art, and after many years, he has made great achievements in art and academia.
He became a famous oil painter in China, and also became a leading figure in the Southern Sect of Chinese landscape painting. He then served as the vice chairman of the National Artists Association and officially took charge of the China University of Arts.
These days, he is working on one thing, and that is to push for the establishment of the School of Architecture at the University of the Arts. The discipline of architecture in China has always been set up in engineering colleges or comprehensive universities. This is due to historical reasons, because in the international community, some countries classify architecture as engineering schools, while others set up architecture in art academies.
At the beginning of architecture in China, Liang Encheng, the most famous architectural expert at that time, was entrusted with the important task of establishing the architectural discipline education system. He studied architecture in the United States, and the United States is a representative of the classification of architecture as an engineering academy. Therefore, for decades, the Academy of Fine Arts did not offer architecture courses.
Feng Yimo has always complained about this, and after he took charge of the University, he spared no effort to promote the process of establishing the institute. After a few years, there was finally some progress this year, and the Ministry of Education officially approved the University of Arts to offer an architecture course, which can only be called Architectural Design, which belongs to the School of Urban Landscape Design. There was no agreement to establish a school of architecture, nor did it approve the establishment of a major in architecture.
This result is barely acceptable to Feng Yimo, after all, starting from scratch is a huge progress. The future development can still be said by the results, but another person is extremely unhappy about this, he is Wang Xiaoshu, an architectural expert who President Feng spent a lot of effort to poach from the French Architectural Design Institute.
No, it's more than 8 o'clock in the evening, and Wang Xiaoshu is still in Principal Feng's office and refuses to leave.
"Xiaoshu, in fact, the results are not bad now, at least we can enroll. After we have been teaching for a few sessions and have achieved results, we will apply to the Ministry of Education for the establishment of the institute. ”
"Principal Feng, things are not so simple, it's still a matter of concept. Their inherent belief that architecture requires a strong foundation in mathematics, physics, and civil engineering, which is not guaranteed in art schools. Therefore, I think that the art university can't teach a reasonable architect, so I can only engage in soft package design and the like. Where did they give in to us, and completely regarded us as a training and decoration team. ”
Feng Yimo only knows the surface of architecture, and now when it comes to substantive issues, he is also a little vague, and asks casually: "Isn't that the case?"
Wang Xiaoshu almost crooked his nose, feeling that your old man also thinks so, if you want to open a decoration major, why do you spend so much effort to get me back to China?
"Principal Feng, if you think so, let's pull this matter down, I'd better go back to France and work on my creation honestly, maybe I can win an international award or something. I'm an architectural design expert, not a contractor!"
Feng Yimo also knew that his words just now were inappropriate, and explained: "Xiao Wang, don't be angry, I didn't choose what I said just now, the Lord is too hungry and his brain is not enough blood." At my age, my body can't compare to yours. ”
"Before I came, I asked the cafeteria to prepare it, and I will bring it to you later. ”
"You premeditated, you don't want me to live in the office today, do you? ”
"No, I'll try to be as concise as possible. ”
"Okay, you say, what do you think of the question just now?"
"In fact, the problem is not what I found, but the general perception in Europe, or the perception that has been proven correct after years of practice in many countries. ”
Feng Yimo listened carefully and did not rush to speak.
Wang Xiaoshu continued: "Architecture does need those science and engineering expertise, but as you know, our art university does not only recruit candidates for literature and history, we also recruit science and engineering students. Science and engineering disciplines can also be opened, not that we are short board in this regard, and these basic disciplines are still easy to learn, and there are no special requirements for students. To put it bluntly, it is: you can learn ...... by yourself."
