Chapter 665: World Painting Competition

"Xu Hong, this time, you are really going to become a world-class painter, I am optimistic about you, you will definitely do it. Wen Sisi looked at Xu Hong and smiled.

--------------------------

The next day, Xu Hong took his painting to the 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts'.

Principal's Office.

When Xu Hong slowly showed his masterpiece of "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" in front of Li Wenhai, his eyes widened wider and wider.

"Great, I can't imagine it! I've lived most of my life and I've never seen a painting so exquisite. Li Wenhai took a serious look at Xu Hong's masterpiece, and his heart was completely shocked by this amazing work.

"Principal Li, do you think that if I participate in this year's 'National Painting Competition', I will be able to win the first place!" Xu Hong looked at Li Wenhai and asked with a smile.

Li Wenhai listened to Xu Hong's words and hurriedly said: "Xu Hong, don't worry! If you can't win the first prize in the 'National Painting Competition' this time, I will write it backwards. ”

Li Wenhai is also very familiar with the level of some painters in Beijing, and he is sure that the works of the painters in Beijing today cannot be compared with Xu Hong's masterpiece.

"Really! That's great, I'm afraid I won't be able to win first prize in this work! If I don't win first place, I won't be eligible to participate in this year's World Painting Competition." Don't want to become a world-class painter. Xu Hong looked at Li Wenhai and said.

"Xu Hong, don't worry! This time, you will definitely be able to win the first place in this 'National Painting Competition'. Li Wenhai said in an affirmative tone again.

"Okay, that's good. Xu Hong also laughed happily.

-----------------------------

In this way, Xu Hong's masterpiece "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" first participated in the domestic "National Painting Competition". Because of Xu Hong's work, it is really good. Compared with the works of other painters, both the length of the whole picture and the exquisite degree of painting skills are far more than the works of any painter.

Not to mention the judges on the scene, even some of the great painters on the scene were willing to bow down one by one after reading Xu Hong's "Qingming Riverside Picture". No one dares to compete with Xu Hong for the first place.

In this way, Xu Hong easily won the first place in this 'National Painting Competition'. With such a ranking, Xu Hong naturally has the qualification to participate in the 'World Painting Competition'.

Not long after, Xu Hong took this "Qingming Riverside Map" and some domestic staff and Wen Sisi together on a special plane, flew over the Pacific Ocean, and then came to the United States on the other side of the ocean.

All the contestants who participated in this 'World Painting Competition' were the best painters from each country. Xu Hong was also a little nervous, after all, he knew that although he was very powerful in China. But on this international stage, it's hard to say whether you're still powerful or not.

You must know that until now, there has not been a painter in China who has won the championship in such an international painting competition. Although there are painters who participate every year, their works do not even enter the top three in this competition.

And Xu Hong represented Hua Guo to participate in this 'World Painting Competition' this time. All the people in the domestic painting art world have great hopes for Xu Hongna. After all, Xu Hong's "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" is already very popular in China. It has become a famous painting that all painters are vying to appreciate.

To be honest, Xu Hong feels that if his painting is in a domestic competition, of course, it is not a problem to win the first place, but if he participates in an international competition, he is not sure. After all, to participate in the World Competition, the judges are not all Chinese.

Since there are many people from abroad, people are naturally not too optimistic about Chinese painting. In such a situation, if your work wants to impress foreign judges, you must make your work shocking enough.

However, everything went well. When Xu Hong's work was awarded the 'World Painting Competition', it also aroused many discussions among the audience and judges. After seeing Xu Hong's masterpiece, everyone said that this was the most exquisite painting they had ever seen.

In this way, in the end, Xu Hong's "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" lived up to expectations, and the art overwhelmed the crowd, and it still won the first place in this "World Painting Competition". Win the title of champion of the 'World Painting Competition'.

Xu Hong finally won the crown of the 'World Painting Competition'. His name, along with his "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival", became the focus of this "World Painting Competition". All the media reporters and audience friends were attracted by Xu Hong's works. Everyone took a group photo in front of Xu Hong's works.

And the reporters of the media also surrounded Xu Hong in the middle, asking him to talk about how he created such an amazing work as "Qingming Riverside Picture".

At this time, Xu Hong could only be vague, saying that he was able to create such a masterpiece. It's because I've always liked to draw fine strokes. He has always wanted to paint a painting that can represent the highest level of Chinese painting. But I just couldn't find inspiration.

Finally, one day, when he traveled to an ancient city in China, he found inspiration. He first used his camera to take pictures of some of the scenery of this ancient city. Later, when I came back, I looked at these photos and began to create this painting of "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival". In the end, it took a year for him to finally leave this amazing work unfinished.

When everyone heard Xu Hong say that his painting took a year to complete, everyone admired his painting skills very much.

In this way, Xu Hong participated in the 'World Painting Competition' this time. It can be said that it is worth the trip, and it is finally a dream of the domestic art world to come true, and finally to get the first place in this 'World Painting Competition'.

And Xu Hong is now not only the most famous painter in China, but also a world-class painter. Not only at home, he has a high reputation, even abroad, he also has a high reputation.

After Xu Hong's own efforts, he finally stood on the stage of his dream. The current Xu Hong can be said to be high-spirited and proud. After all, at his age, let alone being able to win the title of the champion of the 'World Painting Competition', even if he can win the title of the champion of the 'National Painting Competition', it is already very remarkable. In fact, even if you can win the title of the champion of the 'National Youth Painting Competition', it is not easy.

However, just when Xu Hongchun was proud, there was a big foreign collector who gave him a problem. This big collector is willing to spend 100 million US dollars to collect Xu Hong's masterpiece "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival", hoping that Xu Hong can sell his painting to him.

When Xu Hong heard the figure of 100 million US dollars, he was indeed surprised. That's a lot of money. In China, this 100 million US dollars is equivalent to 780 million soft sister coins.

With so much money, for an ordinary person, that's simply an astronomical amount. Even for Xu Hong, who is already worth tens of millions, it is a very huge number!

In the face of this huge temptation, Xu Hong didn't know what to do for a while, he looked at Wen Sisi beside him and said: "Look at whether we want to sell this painting! This is 100 million US dollars! If we sell this painting, we may not be able to eat and drink for the rest of our lives." ”

Wen Sisi listened to Xu Hong's words, she hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Whatever you want, if you want to sell it, sell this painting! ”

But Xu Hong thought for a while and said, "Forget it, I feel that we should keep this painting for ourselves!" I feel that I am afraid that I will never be able to paint such a good painting in the future." ”

After listening to Xu Hong's words, Wen Sisi also nodded and said: "What you said is that this painting needs inspiration, you can draw such a good painting before, and you may not be able to draw such a good painting in the future." ”

In this way, Xu Hong refused the temptation of 100 million US dollars, and he did not sell the painting, but returned to China with the painting.

Xu Hong, who is added to China, has become the most dazzling new star in the art world in Beijing. All newspapers and TV stations have news about Xu Hong every day.

Xu Hong has really become a hot star now. Every day, many reporters will be walled in front of Xu Hong's villa, waiting to interview him. There are also many TV stations that want to invite Xu Hong to be a guest to do programs.

Xu Hong only now feels that when this person is not famous, he just wants to become famous. But once you become famous, you will feel that being a celebrity is really tiring.

But no matter what, Xu Hong is already a big star, even if he doesn't want all the fame and fortune he gets in front of him, it won't work. He has to accept some of the things that his fame has brought him, both good and bad.

And of course, Xu Hong's masterpiece is also famous with Xu Hong.

Now Xu Hong's masterpiece "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" has also become a topic of discussion every day. Everyone just wants to see with their own eyes how good this masterpiece is! Some domestic businessmen are extremely rich and want to buy Xu Hong's masterpiece at a sky-high price. After all, everyone knows that Xu Hong's masterpiece may become the most valuable work of art in the world in the future. If anyone owns this masterpiece of Xu Hong now, then wait and make a lot of money!

For a while, Xu Hong was also a little distressed, feeling that he was now guarding his masterpiece every day, which also made him feel a little physically and mentally exhausted.

Xu Hong thought at this time that if he had been guarding this "Qingming Riverside Map". Then it's hard for me to have a quiet life. If you don't have a quiet life, then you can't create with peace of mind, and you're a painter in vain.

But facing this masterpiece all day long, Xu Hong also felt that the inspiration for his previous painting had exhausted the reputation of this masterpiece. He now feels that he has lost the urge to paint. I can't find the excitement I felt when I was drawing.

"No, I can't just live my life with this painting! ”

Xu Hong has been thinking about it in his villa for the past few days, and he feels that it is necessary for him to give this painting to his hands. If you keep it here for yourself, you won't have to draw anymore. I live by looking at this painting every day, so what's the point?

If you live, you should have dreams. If you don't have a dream, if you don't have a goal in life, then what's the point of living? Xu Hong thought about it and felt that it was time for him to make a big decision.

Of course, he's not alone anymore. He has his other half! This other half is none other than his girlfriend Wen Sisi.

On this day, Xu Hong called Wen Sisi to his villa again, he looked at Wen Sisi solemnly and said: "I want to deal with this masterpiece now, how do you say to deal with it!"

As soon as Wen Sisi heard Xu Hong's words, he was puzzled and said, "Didn't you say that you would keep this painting forever! Why are you going to sell it now?" Xu Hong listened to Wen Sisi's words, and told her the distress in his heart.

Wen Sisi listened to Xu Hong's words, looked at him and said, "Then you can sell this painting! ”

"No, I don't want to sell it, I don't think anyone is qualified to own this painting. Xu Hong looked at Wen Sisi and said. "Oh, what do you mean by this, you don't want to sell it, so what are you going to do with it!" Wen Sisi listened to Xu Hong's words, and he was puzzled.

"I would like to donate this masterpiece to the National Gallery, what do you think? Xu Hong suddenly looked at Wen Sisi and said something that surprised her.

"Oh, what are you doing! This 100 million dollars is not wanted if you say no. After all, she is now Xu Hong's wife-to-be, and Xu Hong's property is almost equal to her property. No matter who Xu Hong wanted to sell the painting to, she felt it was worth the money. But if this masterpiece is donated, Wen Sisi feels a little painful.

"Xu Hong, didn't you say that you want to keep this painting forever! Why do you have to deal with it now!" Wen Si thought, even if Xu Hong kept this painting for the time being, she also felt that this painting was like a large amount of money had been placed there. But if this painting is donated, there will be nothing, and all Xu Hong's efforts will not be in vain.
