Gao Wanfei sat in this indoor basketball hall, which resembled a seat like a "player's seat". Qin Leshi sat next to Gao Yanfei. Because she came with Gao Yanfei, she was regarded as a "family and friend group" of the "contestants", enjoyed some special treatment, and was not called to sit in the audience.

"Fly, come on, come on!" Qin Leshi whispered to Gao Wanfei. In fact, she is now also starting to worry about Gao Yanfei...... Today's battle is really a bit scary!

There were nearly 1,000 people in the audience! The lineup of judges is huge, close to 100 people, and Qin Leshi has observed, some judges are often seen in some TV shows and magazines. It seems that the judges who came over this time are by no means going through the motions, but are genuine expert judges! And the leading cadres of the flower market and G province also came in a large group!

Qin Leshi estimated in her heart, this time, it should be regarded as the most grand and largest public surname exchange meeting in the flower market this year, right?

What worries Qin Leshi the most is what kind of work Gao Wanfei will show...... For Gao Wanfei, Qin Leshi has a certain understanding. At the beginning, Gao Wanfei, who had just joined Alice's planning department, was rustic, with a very strong local flavor, and would not know anything.

Qin Leshi really can't imagine what kind of work Gao Wanfei will paint! Subconsciously, she didn't think Gao Wanfei could draw!

"Oh, Leshi, don't worry about me." Gao gradually fei's heart was determined. He looked at the time on his phone, and it was already 9:30!

The competition is officially on!

First of all, it is the speech of the mayor of the flower market. However, Gao gradually pricked up his ears and listened to a few words, and then stopped listening to him. It's nothing more than saying something official. What is the thanks to Mr. Ge Shan and Mr. Ma Junsheng for their full support and participation in this event. Then he thanked Comrade Gao Jianfei for funding this competition and making contributions to the cultural life of the people of the flower market...... It's just useless nonsense anyway.

Next, it was the secretary of the Huashi Municipal Party Committee who spoke. Then he gave a speech as a specially invited Minister of Culture and Propaganda of Province G, and the chairman of the Painters Association of Province G...... In short, it took about one full hour for the leaders to speak.

The members of the jury are then introduced in turn.

Gao Wanfei looked at those artists and thought to himself, I am afraid that most of his sponsorship money went into the pockets of these artists. They are all oily and smooth, red and shiny, and they seem to be relatively satisfied.

In the end, it was the two sides of this competition, Ma Junsheng and Gao Yanfei who spoke.

Ma Junsheng stood up, bowed to the judges' seat and the rostrum, and then said with emotion, "Thank you teachers, colleagues, and leaders for participating in this exchange competition." I, Ma Junsheng, have been learning painting from Mr. Ge for more than 20 years, but I am still a little lacking in the talent of painting, and I have not learned the essence of the teacher's painting skills. However, Ma Junsheng has been working hard, learning, and exploring. In recent years, Ma Junsheng's works have made great progress, and have also entered some large-scale auction houses and mainstream galleries across the country, and have gained some word of mouth, which is very gratifying! At the same time, I am also extremely grateful to Mr. Ge for his cultivation. Today, taking this opportunity, Ma Junsheng wants to show a landscape painting, which can also be said to be the highest artistic level of Ma Junsheng in recent years! Please teachers, peers, leaders, and more advice and evaluation, Ma Junsheng is here to thank you. After a pause, Ma Junsheng swept his gaze to Gao Wanfei again, "Of course, I also want to thank this young man for his generous sponsorship." However, as a senior in this circle, I would like to give this young man a kind reminder...... Learning to draw is sometimes a very boring thing, and I will be anxious because I am not inspired. So, young man, you must be conscientious and persistent in the process of learning and creating in the future! ”

After speaking, Ma Junsheng bowed politely again, and then sat down.

All around, thunderous applause rang out. Some people also talked about it in private...... "This Teacher Ma is really humble." His paintings, currently in China, can sell at least hundreds of thousands of pieces, which should be regarded as a famous artist. ”

"Yes, today he is willing to compare paintings with that young man, probably also to promote the newcomer. Mr. Ma is really a living Lei Feng in this circle! ”

…… It was Gao Wanfei's turn to speak.

Gao Jianfei first expressed his gratitude to all the leaders and experts who attended the salon politely. Then he only said, "In the past few days, I have also completed a work with a random surname, and I will ask all experts to review and give evaluation and guidance." ”

After the speeches of the two sides, their respective works were officially presented.

First of all, two hostesses wearing cheongsam suits, tall figures, and quite temperamental ladies, went to Ma Junsheng's side, picked up Ma Junsheng's works, and took them to the judges' seat.

Two young ladies, one on the left and one on the right, spread out Ma Junsheng's works and held them for the judges to watch carefully.

Gao Jianfei couldn't help but stand up, walked a few steps, and stopped when he came to a position where he could see the front of Ma Junsheng's painting. Take a look...... I saw that it was a painting about 70 centimeters long and about 50 centimeters wide.

The peaks and peaks in the distance of this painting are undulating, deep and high, the clouds and mist in the mountains, and the temples and pavilions in the depths of the distant mountains appear and disappear in the clouds and mist, like immortals. In the foreground is a flowing wooden bridge, with strange pines and curves, and the scenery is elegant.

It is undeniable that the painting does have a considerable technical content. The ink and painting style are very exciting. Bring the scene to life.

However, in Gao Wanfei's view...... The painting is dead!

Gao Jianfei has seen some of Qiu Ying's true works, and Gao Jianfei's current level is equivalent to Qiu Ying. Then, Gao Wanfei's appreciation of a painting is naturally very high.

Ma Junsheng's painting can only be said to be very good, but ...... There is no artistic conception!

There is no sense of immersion at all!

Rigid!

In layman's terms, a lack of aura.

Of course, this is just Gao Wanfei's opinion, and for the expert judges, this painting is enough to give them a thumbs up.

"Tsk, Junsheng's painting skills have grown a lot!" A white-bearded old man in a Tang costume and holding a purple clay pot in his hand stared at Ma Junsheng's painting with a smile on his face. "As far as the level of this painting is concerned, among the young painters in China, Junsheng's painting skills should be able to rank in the top 70! Not bad, very good! ”

Hearing this old man in Tang costume speak like this, Ma Junsheng couldn't help laughing. There is no other reason, this old man in Tang costume is one of the top painters in country Z, known as the "Wu carving" whose level is close to Zhang Daqian and Qi Baishi.

A young painter like Ma Junsheng (Ma Junsheng is in his thirties and belongs to the category of "young painters") can get his praise, which means that Ma Junsheng's paintings are definitely good.

At least, a person of Wu Ke's level doesn't need to deliberately curry favor with Ge Shan and Ma Junsheng's master and apprentice. He said yes, but really good.

The two hostesses carefully held Ma Junsheng's works, moving in small steps, so that every expert on the judging table could appreciate Ma Junsheng's works in an all-round way.

And every expert who sees this painting has an expression...... Nodding, smiling, glancing approvingly.

Ma Junsheng and Ge Mellow looked at each other and smiled. I was very satisfied. In their opinion, Gao Wanfei is a pure fool, paying for their master and apprentice! Publicize!

After everyone in the expert jury watched the painting, the two hostesses held the painting and went to the leader's seat to show it to the leaders.

The leaders also nodded.

In particular, the chairman of the G Provincial Painters Association also praised loudly, "Sure enough, it is a famous teacher and a high apprentice!" Junsheng, your painting skills have at least been passed on by Lao Ge Qicheng! ”

"Haha, old dragon, don't praise my apprentice, lest he be arrogant. There is a diligent path in the book mountain, and there is no end to the hard work of learning the sea! You have to carve and learn! Ge mellow pretended to force.

In the end, after everyone admired Ma Junsheng's works, Wu Keyou, a great domestic painter, stood up and announced, "Junsheng's painting, in terms of artistic expression, outlines Seiko, like learning from Song Zhao Boju." Whether it is a grass, a tree, a branch or a leaf, or the dynamics and expressions of the characters are depicted in detail and rigorously. The whole width is colored in green and green, and the color is beautiful and elegant. It shows Junsheng's profound ability to express characters and landscapes. Very good! Very good! According to my experience, the market price of this painting will not be lower than 800,000! ”

"Bang Bang!" The judges' seats, the leaders' seats, and the audience all erupted in warm applause.

Ma Junsheng stood up, and the smugness in his eyes was almost overflowing!

Then, it was Gao Yanfei's turn to display his works.

The two hostesses walked to the side of Gao Wanfei's seat, picked up Gao Wanfei's chibi diagram, took it to the judges' seat, and unfolded it.

Ma Junsheng and Ge Mellow, both of them were extremely contemptuous and ridiculed, and looked at Gao Wanfei with disdain.

Originally, those judges were basically lax and absent-minded. It's like, they go to the hotel for a big meal, all the dishes are served, they are full, and now they are picking their teeth with toothpicks and burping.

But when that painting unfolded.

First of all, the back carved by the great painter Wu was like a spring installed, and he sat up straight all at once! His gaze was fixed on the painting! Two eyes are like two walnuts!

"Huh?" Sitting next to Wu Keyou, the calligraphy and painting appraisal expert of the Palace Museum, who was originally lazy, also sat up straight, he rubbed his eyes, then looked at the painting, then rubbed his eyes again, and then stared at the painting again.

One by one, the slack expert judges instantly focused all their attention on the painting. Not a single person commented, and no one exchanged words.

Quiescence.

Silent!

After 2 minutes. Wu Keyou trembled and said, "Take it!" Bring me that picture! Put it on my table! Fast! Fast! ”

The two hostesses were startled, but they quickly gave the painting to Wu Keyou to take it. Wu carved the expert from the Palace Museum next to him, and immediately shouted, "Be careful! You two, be careful! ”

The painting lay flat on the carved table, and he stood up, his eyes fixed on the painting. The museum connoisseur next to him even took out a pair of white gloves and a magnifying glass from his bosom. Wearing gloves, he gently groped around the surface of the painting, and from time to time he used a magnifying glass to observe every sketch of the painting, a little ink. While observing, he said to Wu Keyou, "Teacher Wu, you should also be careful, try not to touch it, it will not be good to leave sweat stains and fingerprints." ”

Soon, dozens of experts surrounded the carved table inside and out.

"What the hell?" Ge Luhou and Ma Junsheng also stood up at the same time.

"Gradually flying, what the hell are you drawing?" Qin Leshi asked Gao Wanfei suspiciously.

Gao Yanfei smiled, took out a cigarette and smoked, "It's nothing, it's just something that took a few days to draw blindly." ”

Over there, one of the members of the jury shouted loudly to the podium. "Teacher Long, come and see! Hurry up! Fast! ”

Long Ke, who had been sitting on the stage attending, Long Ke, chairman of the G Provincial Painters Association, realized that something was very wrong, and then quickly stood up and walked over.

He also participated in the onlookers.

The scene is extremely weird!

After 10 minutes, I only heard the great painter Wu Ke, on the microphone, and roared loudly, "What kind of international jokes? Kindness? Nima! This is the true work of Qiu Ying, a great painter of the Ming Dynasty! Authentic! Authentic! ”
