Hung up the phone, thinking of the last sentence that the master had just said, Chen Yi showed a smile on his face, his master said that the reason for such a big impact was due to some reasons in his plan, but, in the final analysis, it was because his calligraphy ability had reached this level.

If there were no plans to increase fame without any ability, then the media would not pay attention at all, and it would not be possible to reach such a high price at auction.

This made Chen Yi more aware of the importance of improving his own ability, perhaps now his calligraphy has the help of skills, but he can be promoted to such a level because he continues to practice copying every day.

If you don't have skills, but you don't work hard, then the calligraphy you write will not have any emotion at all, and it will not be able to reach the point where it can resonate with people.

Even Zheng Lao, after seeing Chen Yi's calligraphy at the auction this time, couldn't help but be full of surprise, because after Wang Xizhi's authentic handwriting appeared in the world, he deliberately asked Chen Yi to copy it, but now, in less than half a year, Chen Yi's Huang Tingjing has been more outstanding than before, and the similarity with Wang Xizhi's authentic handwriting is getting higher and higher, almost reaching the level of more than half of Wang Xi.

Wang Xizhi's authentic handwriting, it can be said that they were shocked, the meaning of the brushwork, can go straight to their hearts, and Chen Yi is now copying out of the calligraphy, can have more than half of its level, people resonate, this is no problem, the same, the excellence of this calligraphy, but also let them feel amazed, for the amazement of calligraphy, but also for Chen Yi's attainments in calligraphy.

At the level of Chen Yi, who is more than half of Wang Xizhi. Let the whole of China be shaken. That's a given. Because even the best calligrapher today could not write such a level of Huang Tingjing.

The reason is only because Wang Xizhi's authentic works have long disappeared from the world, and everyone's understanding of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy is only the inscription that has been handed down in the Song Dynasty and later, so even if they study the calligraphy deeply, it will never reach the level of Wang Xi's half.

Modern calligraphy, mainly cursive. Most people are learning cursive, and Chen Yi will naturally receive great attention to writing such a high-level small script at such an age, not to mention that the relevant state departments are now investigating some unhealthy trends in the calligraphy world.

The high-level calligraphy written by Chen Yi at this moment is precisely in line with the relevant policies of the state, so that those so-called calligraphers can see what real calligraphy is like. Therefore, Chen Yi may not know. Zheng Lao is very clear about the reasons for the front-page reports of the major website media.

First, Chen Yi's level has indeed been reached, and second, it is under the instruction of the relevant departments that the propaganda is carried out with such fanfare, otherwise, the Chinese Calligraphers Association would not have been able to make such a quick decision to absorb Chen Yi as a director of the Calligraphy Association, you must know that the Calligraphers Association is a national organization under the leadership of the Ministry of Culture and the Propaganda Department, and its party secretary is at the deputy ministerial level.

Regarding his being recruited as a director of the Huaxia Calligraphy Association, Chen Yi also learned about it during the phone call with his master.

If he has a choice, Chen Yi doesn't want to join any group, he learns calligraphy as a hobby, but how much ability there is, how much responsibility there is, he really understands this sentence now.

Of course, at this stage, he still needs to continue to improve the level of calligraphy, and wait until he has really improved to a high level, and then talk about the management of the Chinese calligraphy world.

Otherwise, if he is such a high-level calligrapher, but he has not even entered the Huaxia Calligraphy Association, it will undoubtedly be a slap in the face of the Chinese calligraphy community.

After not sitting in the restaurant for long, Chen Yi rushed back to the room directly, for no other reason, but there were too many people who came to ask for autographs.

Now in Hong Kong, Chen Yi's fame is definitely higher than that of the mainland, after the previous donation of 230 million Hong Kong dollars, coupled with the calligraphy matter, it can be said that Chen Yi has been on the front page of major newspapers in Hong Kong every day in the past few days, so that everyone in Hong Kong knows his name and his deeds.

Soon, Xiao Shenghua came to the hotel, and the first thing he did was to congratulate Chen Yi on becoming a star in the Chinese calligraphy industry, and he did not expect that Chen Yi's two calligraphy paintings would cause such a big response.

Many people who participated in the auction yesterday regretted it, and they were envious and jealous of the two people who got Chen Yi's calligraphy, they originally felt that the value of Chen Yi's calligraphy was not so high, but now, seeing the news of today's major TV stations and newspapers, they can be said to regret it.

Just these news are enough to double the value of Chen Yi's calligraphy, this is the effect of fame, not to mention that as time goes by, Chen Yi's fame will become bigger and bigger, and the value of his previous calligraphy will also become higher and higher.

"Uncle Hua, don't laugh at me, I'm also a blind cat and a dead mouse, by the way, did Wang Shijie make a move." Hearing Xiao Shenghua's congratulations, Chen Yi said with a wry smile.

Xiao Shenghua smiled, "Wang Shijie, what can he do to offend you, a rising star in the calligraphy industry, he will only be more and more excluded in the Hong Kong antique culture circle, but he seems to be determined to let you not get the Flower God Cup, and after going to the auction house this morning to ask for no result, he sued the auction house to the local court, asking to cancel the auction results of the Flower God Cup." ”

"The Hong Kong District Court decided to hold a trial this afternoon to hear this case, but this is a matter between Wang Shijie and the auction house, and it has nothing to do with you, and according to the provisions of the Auction Law, Wang Shijie will not have any chance of winning."

"Of course, Wang Shijie will not stop there, a flower cup that could have been worth more than six million Hong Kong dollars was auctioned by you for four and a half million, he will definitely appeal to the High Court, but the problem is not big, the flower god cup will still be obtained by you in the end, but it may take about a week."

Chen Yi nodded, even if he got the Flower God Cup now, he couldn't leave Hong Kong directly, and the task of painting horses had not been completed, now he had only just painted for ten days, and if he wanted to achieve something, it would take at least more than twenty days.

"By the way, the newspaper that was bought by Wang Shijie before also apologized to the public and you again, and decided to compensate, this is their newspaper." Xiao Shenghua seemed to remember something, took out a newspaper from his bag and handed it to Chen Yi.

Chen Yi took the newspaper and looked at the headlines on the front page, apology for the previous incident, and Xiao Shenghua continued to say when he watched it: "I heard some people in the media say that when they learned that your calligraphy was auctioned for a high price of 20 million, their general manager's face turned white with fright. ”

Hearing Xiao Shenghua's words, Chen Yi couldn't help but smile, fame equals ability, just like his master Zheng Lao, in the antique circle, even if everyone dares to disdain themselves, they dare not disrespect their master.

The apology in this newspaper is basically divided into two ways, one is that they will hold a press conference in the afternoon to formally apologize to Chen Yat and the Jockey Club, and explain to the public about the incident that this is a verbal apology, and the other way is that they will donate HK$3 million to the Jockey Club Charity Fund and give Chen Yat HK$5 million in compensation, and at the end, sincerely ask Chen Yat to forgive them.

Five million Hong Kong dollars, Chen Yi smiled lightly and put the newspaper on the table, "They are really willing, five million Hong Kong dollars just say don't want it." ”

"Xiaoyi, five million Hong Kong dollars is nothing more than a few advertising money for the media, but now that I offend you, their situation in Hong Kong will definitely become very difficult, and this is also the price they must pay, otherwise, suing them will definitely make them have no chance at all, if you feel dissatisfied, you can put forward conditions to them, I believe they will never agree." Xiao Shenghua looked at the newspaper and said with a cold face.

Chen Yi pondered for a while, "For them, we only need to teach some lessons, our main target is Wang Shijie, but it is too cheap to simply let them go, Uncle Hua, please explain my opinion to the media later, since they want to compensate, then compensate me for the price of a piece of calligraphy, 20 million Hong Kong dollars, and donate it directly to the Jockey Club Trust Fund." ”

"Oh, your idea is very clever, so that they can't refuse, although 20 million Hong Kong dollars is a bit of a lion's mouth, but if it is donated to a charitable foundation, others can't say anything, and they can win the favor of the people." Chen Yi's words couldn't help but make Xiao Shenghua's eyes light up.

"Hehe, Uncle Hua, I just don't want to be so cheap for them, as for the rest, it doesn't matter anymore." Chen Yi smiled, the newspaper offended himself, and it would not work if he didn't pay some painful price.

Xiao Shenghua patted Chen Yi on the shoulder, "You did the right thing, since they are your enemies, don't be polite, otherwise, let the enemy think that you are a bully, and more people will bully you next time." ”

Next, Xiao Shenghua went to inform the media of this matter, and Chen Yi painted horses in the hotel, and now if he goes to the racecourse, it is estimated that he will be surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside. (To be continued......)
