Chapter 530: Wang Hongqi

Chapter 530: Wang Hongqi

...... "Sir, because our exhibition won't end until ten days later, the six paintings you bought will have to be handed over to you in ten days!"

"I know! Thank you...... By the way, I would like to ask, do you have the specific contact information and address of the authors of these paintings?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Can you give it to me?" Liu Dong said quickly.

"Wait a minute!" said the attendant at the information desk on the fourth floor, taking a pamphlet and handing it to him.

When he opened it, Liu Dong found that it still contained the names and phone numbers of many people, as well as their addresses! But not all of them's addresses and phone numbers were on it.

"Hello, it doesn't seem that there is the contact information of the person I'm looking for?" After Liu Dong looked through it, he didn't find the phone number named Fang Yi!

"That's right, sir, this solicitation of contact information and addresses was entirely voluntary, so some painters did not leave their contact details!"

Hearing this explanation, Liu Dong nodded, fortunately, it is not difficult to find after knowing the name and approximate address!

Holding the booklet, Liu Dong found Chang Fangtao, who was still wandering among the exhibits, and then whispered: "I want to find a painter who lives in Qingzhou, do you want to go with me or continue to see the exhibition?"

"Painter, what are you looking for a painter? Isn't it enough to buy a few paintings just now, and you have to go to the door to buy them?" Chang Fangtao laughed quietly.

"Don't talk nonsense, do you want to go?" Liu Dong hurriedly whispered, this is the exhibition hall that needs to be quiet, so Liu Dong doesn't want to explain more here!

"Go. Of course I went!" Chang Fangtao hurriedly said.

In Chang Fangtao's eyes. Liu Dong is simply a big super lucky star. I think he didn't pick up a single leak in the six major antique markets in Qingzhou for several years, but together with Liu Dong, he immediately picked up Zhao Yunyu's authentic handiwork, and changed cars all of a sudden! And Liu Dong himself is even better, even the national treasure Mo Evil Sword can be found, and this luck will have to go against the sky to get such a treasure!

Therefore, Chang Fangtao has already decided in his heart that he will definitely not suffer a loss by following Liu Dong!

The two came out of the calligraphy and painting city, Liu Dong took out the booklet first, found the phone number he wanted and called. "Hey, hello, is it Mr. Wang Hongqi?"

"I am, who are you?"

Although there was a hint of hoarseness in the other party's voice, Liu Dong could still hear that the other party's voice was very young. Compared with the information he learned, this person should be the Wang Hongqi he wants to see.

After being a little relieved, Liu Dong hurriedly said: "Hello Mr. Wang, my name is Liu Dong, and I saw your two paintings at today's art exhibition. Personally, I like it very much, so I want to talk to Mr. Wang about painting?"

Liu Dong's words were heard in Wang Hongqi's ears. The latter thought that Liu Dong was the buyer, so it was not surprising! He immediately agreed to meet Liu Dong, and the location was chosen at his home!

And the reason why Liu Dong chose this Wang Hongqi to be the first contact is because he is the only one of the three people that Liu Dong likes is in Qingzhou, and he is the easiest to succeed!

After hanging up the phone, Liu Dong drove Chang Fangtao towards a place called Painter's Village at the foot of Yunmen Mountain, where Wang Hongqi's address was left!

However, when Liu Dongche turned into this small village at the foot of Yunmen Mountain, it was hard to imagine that this was the so-called painter's village, which was too chaotic, with low farmhouses, colorful streets with sewage, strange graffiti walls, and so-called artistic youths with sketchpads on their backs, long hair, and paint on their bodies, full of decadence!

"Liu Dong, we can't be in the wrong place, right?" Chang Fangtao said in astonishment after looking around.

"You've been in the city for so much longer than me, don't you know?" Liu Dong rolled his eyes angrily.

"I know, I know, but no matter how I look at it, this place doesn't look like the so-called painter's paradise they say, if it is changed to the Hanako Concentration Camp, it will be almost the same!" Chang Fangtao couldn't help but complain.

"Okay, it's here!" According to the house number mentioned in the information, Liu Dong successfully found it with the relics yuanguang!

After getting out of the car, Liu Dong knocked on the simple but still intact courtyard door, and soon, with a burst of footsteps from far and near, the wooden door that was inserted with a horizontal log from the inside opened in a hoarse friction sound, and then a young man with a height of about 1.8 meters, with a unique southerner facial features, and his hair is not too long, and he can take care of it, wearing a leather jacket on his upper body, a pair of loose and paint-stained black pants on his lower body, and a pair of faded black high-top leather shoes on his feet, and a young man with a somewhat thin figure appeared!

Because Liu Dong had already seen the photo of this person before, as soon as he saw him, Liu Dong immediately recognized that the other party was Wang Hongqi who he was looking for!

"Hello, I'm Liu Dong who called you before!" Noticing the look of surprise on the young man's face, Liu Dong took the initiative to stretch out his hand to the other party.

"Hello!Oh, I'm sorry!" I wanted to shake hands with Liu Dong, but when I saw the paint on my hands, Wang Hongqi's face showed a hint of embarrassment.

He was painting just now, and the paint on his hands hasn't been washed yet!

"It's okay, can we go in and talk?"

"Of course, please come in!"

After Liu Dong and Chang Fangtao entered the door, a yard of about 100 square meters appeared, and there were no other green plants in the yard except for a persimmon tree next to the toilet in the southwest corner!

From the courtyard gate around the shadow wall to the hall there is a corridor about 80 cm wide with red bricks paved with the floor, probably because of the long time, the red bricks on the corridor have been partially broken, and a few pieces are missing at the edge. Its basic functions are still there, though.

After walking into the hall along the corridor, there is a living room with dim light, there is no common table of eight immortals in the living room, but a dilapidated one-piece sofa occupies the largest space in the living room, and then there is a glass coffee table stained with all kinds of black paint stains, as well as various paints, and there is only a soup box on it, empty beer bottles, and there is an 18-inch panda black and white TV in the southeast corner of the living room opposite the sofa, and then the remaining space is placed with easels, paints, unopened beer, instant noodles, biscuits, Mineral water!, as well as a coal stove for heating in winter!

To be honest, Liu Dong never thought that a man's residence could be so sloppy since he was a child!

And if the living room is like this, then the bedroom is needless to say!

"Please sit down, you two!" Wang Hongqi said after cleaning up the underwear and underwear, stinky socks and unwashed clothes on the sofa.

To be honest, looking at the things in his hand, Liu Dong didn't have the slightest interest in making the sofa in his heart, so he hurriedly said: "Mr. Wang doesn't have to be polite, I don't know if I can appreciate Mr. Wang's previous paintings!"

When it comes to painting, Wang Hongqi's originally embarrassed look because his home is too chaotic immediately turned into full confidence!

"Okay, please come with me!" Saying that, Wang Hongqi took Liu Dong and Chang Fangtao into the wing room next to him, and after coming in, Liu Dong found that the wing room was quite spacious, more than forty square meters, almost twice as large as the living room. And compared with the sloppiness of the living room, this studio opened up by Wang Hongqi is relatively neat and orderly!

"This painting is really good!"

After entering the door, Liu Dong was immediately attracted by an oil painting with a length of one meter and a width of eighty that was still placed on the easel in the center of the studio!

The content of the picture is a lake, with sparse trees and green grasslands on the shore, and towering mountains extending into the distance, as well as blue sky and white clouds.

"This should be the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, right?" Chang Fangtao said after looking at it for a while.

"Yes, this is Namtso Lake!" Wang Hongqi was also very happy to see the two admiring their paintings.

"You painted very well!" Liu Dong did not hesitate to praise himself.

"Thank you!"

"Are there any other paintings?"

"Yes, you wait a minute!" As he spoke, Wang Hongqi opened the camphor wood box next to him, and immediately a stack of canvases rolled up together appeared!

Maybe it's because there is no money for framing, so Wang Hongqi will cut off the canvas after finishing painting, roll it up and put it in a box!

And in this largest camphor wood box, such canvases are almost full, look at this amount, I am afraid there are no less than hundreds! And Wang Hongqi turned it inside, and took out a small 80*60 oil painting, the content of the oil painting is a portrait of a young woman sitting on a chair, the woman is wearing a white summer dress, fair skin, soft expression, face, clothes, chairs and several large color treatments of the surrounding environment are very open, and unified in the whole picture, the corners of the eyes, The tips of the hair and other details are also very clear with small brushstrokes, especially on the face, the transition of the color block is too soft, which not only shows the soft and delicate skin texture of the young woman, but also has a strong three-dimensional feeling, showing the author's delicate color matching skills and deep modeling foundation!

In addition, the most important proportions of the human body are also very harmonious, and the whole painting gives people a quiet and comfortable feeling!

Seeing it, Liu Dong liked it immediately!

Next, after Liu Dong looked at more than a dozen other oil paintings by Wang Hongqi, he felt more and more satisfied, and the painting style of the person in front of him also followed the same path as him, all of which were neoclassical style!

However, unlike Liu Dong's oil paintings, which pursue Titian-like brilliant colors and Michelangelo-like sturdy shapes, Wang Hongqi's oil paintings value Rembrandt's pursuit of light the most! In each of his oil paintings, Liu Dong can feel the impact of the changes in light, and the whole painting is very rich in layers, with strong black and white contrast, but not dazzling, which is very rare!
