Chapter 637: Looking at the Painting

Xu Hong wants to get his works back now, and he doesn't want his works to fall into the hands of some corrupt elements who take bribes.

But as soon as he heard Li Wenhai say this, Xu Hong was a little angry, he looked at Li Wenhai and said: "How can this be, this is my work, whether I win the award or not, it should be returned to me in the end!" ”

"Xu Hong, I can understand your feelings, but I can't help this matter, this is the regulation of the organizing committee, and I am also very angry. It's just that I can't help it. Li Wenhai looked at Xu Hong again and said helplessly.

"Alright, Principal Li, I don't blame you for this. However, I will definitely get my work back. Xu Hong looked at Li Wenhai and said very confidently.

Seeing Xu Hong's very angry appearance, Li Wenhai was afraid that Xu Hong would do something he didn't understand when he was young and vigorous, so he looked at Xu Hong and said, "Xu Hong, don't be like this, there are some things, we should learn to tolerate them!" As the saying goes, the arm can't twist the thigh, and we can't change the things that these bigwigs decide. However, fortunately, this time, they also gave us some face, and let us take a tenth place, so you don't have to worry about them. You'd better calm down and don't do something illegal, that's not good. ”

As soon as Xu Hong heard Li Wenhai say this, he knew that Li Wenhai had misunderstood what he meant, so he looked at it and smiled and said, "Principal Li, don't worry, I, Xu Hong, am a person who knows the law and understands the law, and I will never do anything that violates the law." ”

After listening to Xu Hong's words, Li Wenhai also nodded and didn't say anything more.

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

After this incident passed, Xu Hong was very unhappy. Originally, he thought that he could get the top three results. In fact, even if it is the first place, he feels that he can get it. After all, he is tantamount to opening a 'plug-in'. In the case of opening a 'plug-in', if you can't get the first place, doesn't it feel very shameless!

But reality is like this, and many things in reality are not subject to human will. It's not like you can do whatever you want. But this incident made Xu Hong very angry, he knew that no matter whether he could win this award or not, but his own works, he had to get them back, these old guys had cheated themselves, and they couldn't take their works away!

But how to get his works back, Xu Hong was also a little at a loss. After all, he is just an ordinary college student, how can he compete with these bigwigs in the art world!

In this way, Xu Hong has been thinking about this matter for the past few days, thinking about how he can get his works back.

Besides, the reason why Xu Hong's work did not win the award this time was because Cheng Yihai gave gifts to those judges, so that they gave the first place this time to his son Cheng Ming.

And Xu Hong's work did fall into the hands of Cheng Yihai in the end. Of course, this process is not so easy, and it is also something that he has achieved after a lot of hard work.

Here's the thing. Because Cheng Yihai is a person who has some attainments in paintings, he has a stronger ability to appreciate paintings than all of them compared to the bigwigs of the jury.

Although those bigwigs are also people in the art world, they are actually not very good at appreciating paintings. In fact, they are some third-rate painters who have mixed into the art world through connections. You have to say that they don't understand painting at all. That must be demeaning to others. But if you want to say that they know a lot about paintings, then you think too highly of them.

However, for Xu Hong's "Mona Lisa". A few of the judges also felt very good. But they just feel that Xu Hong's work is not much better than the work of Cheng Yihai's son Cheng Ming. The two are just comparable. Because of this, these bigwigs, although they also appreciate Xu Hong's works. But I didn't regard Xu Hong's work as some great masterpiece. It's just a very good work.

And Cheng Yihai this time, although he is not a member of the organizing committee, he and these members of the organizing committee are good friends! Among them, there is a member of the organizing committee named Qian Yongchang. This person is also a greedy guy, and he also received a lot of benefits from Cheng Yihai before this competition.

This person is also a very powerful person in the entire organizing committee, and he is a deputy leader of the organizing committee of the 'National Youth Painting Competition'. After this 'National Youth Painting Competition', this person got this work by Xu Hong. Originally, according to the ranking, he would not have gotten Xu Hong's work. Because, Xu Hong's work is ranked tenth. In previous years, such works would be given to some members of the organizing committee, not to the team leader or deputy leader.

Because the leader and deputy leader of the organizing committee are equivalent to the leaders of the organizing committee, the two of them should certainly get the two best works of this competition. And the two best works in this competition are, of course, the first and second place works.

In this competition, several members of the organizing committee have always felt that the best works are Xu Hong's "Mona Lisa" and Cheng Ming's "Ten Thousand Horses Galloping". If you want to say that Cheng Ming, this kid, is really not very good when he paints Chinese paintings, but when he paints oil paintings, he still has two strokes.

This time, Cheng Ming's painting of "Ten Thousand Horses Galloping" is really good. The content of the painting is that there are many horses running on the grassland, and the whole picture can be said to be magnificent and very shocking. It should be said that it is still a good work. If you compare it to other works, it may be much better. Of course, if you compare it with Xu Hong's works, it is a little worse. After all, Cheng Ming's work, except for some characteristics in terms of momentum, is not distinctive in other aspects. In other words, Cheng Ming's work, the horse in the painting, is not a special image. The form is a bit restrained and not natural enough. If you just look at the image of the whole picture, there is still some 'spirit'. But when you want to look at a certain horse, it feels a little stiff and lacks a kind of agility.

But no matter what, this time Cheng Ming's work is to make the leader of the organizing committee take a fancy to it this time. not only let Cheng Ming win the first place. He also collected Cheng Ming's works. This could have been regarded as a huge affirmation of Cheng Ming. After Cheng Yihai knew this, of course he was very happy.

And the remaining very good work is Xu Hong's "Mona Lisa". Of course, this work belongs to Qian Yongchang. After all, he is the deputy leader. After the team leader picks it, the rest of the works are all he can choose. So, Qian Yongchang chose Xu Hong's work "Mona Lisa".

After Qian Yongchang got this work of Xu Hong, he was also very happy. Because, he also saw that Xu Hong's work was not much worse than Cheng Ming's work. He even felt that Xu Hong's work was better than Cheng Ming's work.

Qian Yongchang and Cheng Yihai are good friends, and after he got such a work, he also wanted to show off in front of Cheng Yihai. After all, Cheng Yihai is not a judge of the 'National Youth Painting Competition' this time, and he has not seen Xu Hong's works yet.

Now Qian Yongchang told Cheng Yihai that he had a very good oil painting in his hand and wanted Cheng Yihai to come over and enjoy it with him. He also told Cheng Yihai that the work he is now collecting is the work of a contestant named Xu Hong in the 'National Youth Painting Competition'.

After Cheng Yihai heard this, of course, he happily agreed. After all, Cheng Yihai is also a person who likes paintings. Since there is such an opportunity, of course, he does not want to miss it.

And Cheng Yihai also knew about Xu Hong before, and knew that he represented the 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts' to participate in this 'National Youth Painting Competition'. He also knows that Xu Hong's painting level is very high, and he can be said to be the best student in the entire 'Beijing Academy of Fine Arts'. And this time, the reason why his son Cheng Ming was able to win the award was also because he bribed several judges through his connections, which squeezed out Xu Hong's works from the top three.

Qian Yongchang's home.

Cheng Yihai was also very surprised after seeing Xu Hong's oil painting "Mona Lisa". He also couldn't have imagined that Xu Hong had such profound attainments and could paint such excellent oil paintings.

"Old Qian, this kid's work is really good! I feel that this painting is even better than my son's painting! "Cheng Yihai also has some painting appraisal level. He can also see at a glance that Xu Hong's painting is very good, even better than his son's work!

As soon as he heard Cheng Yihai say this, Qian Yongchang looked at him and smiled: "Well, your level of appreciation is still very good!" I can also see that Xu Hong's painting level is really good, so I collected this work! You also know that this time, we squeezed Xu Hong's works out of the top three. Only allowed him to finish in 10th place. In previous years, I wouldn't have collected the work of the 10th contestant. But this year, I just feel that Xu Hong's kid's work is very good, so I collected the works of the tenth contestant. ”

Cheng Yihai is now looking at the work in front of him, and he doesn't blink his eyes, and he is completely attracted by Xu Hong's oil painting. So, this Cheng Yihai suddenly had an idea.

"Oops! That's a really good drawing! I also liked it when I saw it! In this way, Lao Cheng, I know you also like this work, but I also like it! You see, it's not going to work. In the past, works like these that won the grand prize in the 'National Youth Painting Competition' are generally priced at 100,000 pieces in the market. Now Xu Hong's work, on the bright side, is only the tenth place.

With such an achievement, if this painting were to be put on the market, it would be sold for 30,000 or 50,000 yuan at most. But you and I both know that Xu Hong's works, if they take the real level, they can get the first place in this 'National Youth Painting Competition'.

In other words, if Xu Hong's work is on the market, it can be sold for 100,000 yuan. In this way, I really want to collect this work now. I'll give you 200,000 now, what do you think? As soon as I let you change hands, you will earn 200,000 yuan, what do you think, do you want to transfer this work to me again. ”

After Cheng Yihai saw Xu Hong's work, he wanted to collect this work. He thought, such a good work, maybe in a few years, it will rise sharply! Xu Hong is so talented, even this time, because of his own reasons, he didn't get the grand prize. But in the future, it is still possible to pass other forms of competition, and then they will become famous and become a family. At that time, his works, that will definitely rise to a very high price.

But Cheng Yihai has this idea, and no one else has it. Qian Yongchang doesn't have such an idea! Of course, they have it.

"Lao Cheng, you also like this work now! But I really like this work very much! I've just got my hands on it, and I don't want to rush it yet! I'll talk about this later, and I don't want to change hands yet. ”

Qian Yongchang listened to Cheng Yihai's words, although he was a little surprised, but he could understand it. After all, he knew that Cheng Yihai also liked paintings very much, and he himself was born as a painter!

But Qian Yongchang also knows that Xu Hong's work, there is still a lot of room for appreciation in the future, and he keeps it first, maybe he can make a lot of money!

"Old money, don't you think I'm too little! In this case, I will add another 100,000, 300,000, what do you think, this is the price of a work of a first-class painter in the country. Cheng Yihai likes Xu Hong's work very much, he just wants to get his hands on this work.

Qian Yongchang listened to Cheng Yihai's words, smiled and said, "Old Cheng, why are you bothering!" I'm really not because of money, I really like this work by Xu Hong. ”

"Four hundred thousand! What do you think, I'll add another hundred thousand to you. ”

Cheng Yihai continued to add money, he couldn't put down Xu Hong's work anyway, which was also out of the way.

"Lao Cheng, you don't have to do this, am I very short of money!" Qian Yongchang listened to Cheng Yihai's words, but he still didn't let go. Although the price has reached 400,000. Qian Yongchang still didn't nod.
