Hearing Chen Yi's words, Sato Shinsuke was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect Chen Yi to refuse his request to make tea in this way, and he had a little dabbling in the tea ceremony, this was simply a joke, as a famous collector in the Eastern Capital, he had met a lot of people who were proficient in the tea ceremony, but there was never a person who could have the same taste as Chen Yi.

The reason why Chen Yi refused to make tea, he also quickly thought of it, naturally because of the previous provocation of Fukuda Fukuji and Kimura Kazuken, in this matter, he also knew Chen Yi's character better, he was very polite and friendly to his friends, but he did not leave any mercy for the enemy.

Sato Shinsuke looked at the tea set next to him, I'm afraid I won't be able to taste the tea made by Chen Yi today, since Chen Yi took the initiative to show weakness and refused his request, he is not interested in explaining anything to these people, maybe the people who came here today will never be able to drink the tea made by Chen Yi himself in their lives.

"Haha, Mr. Chen is really too modest, since that's the case, I'll make tea for you." Shinsuke Sato snorted, sat down next to the tea set, and began to bubble Tieguanyin.

After brewing a pot of tea, Shinsuke Sato poured a cup for several people at the scene, Chen Yi also picked up the cup with a smile and tasted it slightly, among the top ten famous teas in China, he brewed Tieguanyin the most times.

The reason is only because he got the legendary stone scoop purple clay pot of Master Gu Jingzhou, so he fell in love with the tea of Tieguanyin.

】

The Tieguanyin he brewed, every cup, can make people clearly feel the legendary Guanyin rhyme, that kind of indescribable charm, so that the taste of Tieguanyin has been raised to an extreme.

This Shisuke Sato's tea-making skill level. It's just intermediate. The Tieguanyin that bubbled out. That kind of Guanyin charm is very light, and there is no skill bonus, he went to some friends' houses and took the initiative to make tea, because many people's tea-making level is not as good as him.

After making tea all year round, a habit formed made Chen Yi taste the tea made by other people with low tea level. It's a bit hard to swallow.

With Sato Shinsuke's level of tea, although it is not difficult to swallow, it is also a little unaccustomed, and the taste is very different from what he brews.

"Mr. Sato's tea ceremony is getting higher and higher, and the taste of Tieguanyin is very wonderful and unforgettable, and only someone like you, who has been immersed in the tea ceremony for decades, can make such a tea soup, and other people want to brew it. It's delusional at all. At this time, after tasting the tea brewed by Shinsuke Sato. Kazuken Kimura praised with a smile.

Sato Shinsuke was full of sighs in his heart, sure enough, these frogs at the bottom of the well are not worthy of tasting the tea brewed by Chen Yi.

After tasting the tea soup, Shinsuke Sato said with a smile: "Okay, let's start today's gathering and exchange while tasting tea, I said before that I can invite Mr. Chen Yi over, but it is very rare, if you have anything to communicate with Mr. Chen Yi, you can put it forward directly, but please pay attention to your words, the meaning of our goal this time is to communicate with each other and make progress together." ”

Chen Yi smiled lightly and communicated with each other, saying that the purpose of this gathering was just that these people wanted to get their own calligraphy, including the two guys Fukuda Fukuji and Kimura Kazuken.

"Mr. Chen, I listened to the differences between Chinese calligraphy and the calligraphy of the island country that you introduced at the calligraphy exhibition before, and it was very correct, which made me feel a lot, but what you said at that time was a little undetailed, and I don't know if you can talk in detail now." At this time, the calligrapher among the three, Nobuzhe Ando asked Chen Yi with a smile on his face.

Chen Yi smiled, "Naturally, this gathering is an exchange, of course, I am just describing my understanding of calligraphy and calligraphy, since it is Chinese calligraphy and small island country calligraphy, then we will talk about Chinese calligraphy first, all along, many so-called experts, are saying that Chinese calligraphy gnaws the old book, there is no innovation, in fact, the mainstream Erwang system calligraphy since the Tang and Song dynasties, there is not much change, Ou Yanliu's innovation, is also on the basis of the two kings in different styles to create zào out of the ....... ”

He slowly talked about his research and understanding of Chinese calligraphy, whether these people could accept it or not, he was just narrating his own opinions.

Chen Yi's narration is more detailed than what Shinsuke Sato said at the exhibition before, and it completely analyzes Chinese calligraphy from the changes and innovations of calligraphy in various generations.

These words made Shinsuke Sato and the other three nod their heads constantly, expressing their agreement, they are basically people who support traditional calligraphy, and naturally have a great love for traditional calligraphy.

"The above is an introduction to Chinese calligraphy, and next, I will introduce my understanding of calligraphy in a small island country." After Chen Yi finished talking about Chinese calligraphy, he paused and prepared to start explaining the calligraphy of the island country.

"Mr. Chen, I have a question, as an artist, you must show a distinct personality, and Chinese calligraphy pays great attention to tradition, there is no innovation, which is completely contrary to art, compared to our small island country calligraphy focuses on innovation, is really stronger than the art of calligraphy." When Chen Yi was about to start explaining the calligraphy of the island country, Fukuda Fukuda Fukuji suddenly spoke.

Hearing Fukuda Fukuda's words, Chen Yi couldn't help but smile, "Mr. Fukuda, I have heard that the small island country is a country that pays attention to etiquette, so is it polite to interrupt others at will." ”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, I just couldn't help it for a while, that's why I suddenly spoke, you can choose not to answer this question." Fukuda Fukuda did not hesitate at all, apologized to Chen Yi, and provoked Chen Yi again.

Sato Shinjie's face showed coldness, "Mr. Fukuda, now Chen Yi is answering Mr. Ando's question, if you have any questions, it's not too late to ask when Mr. Chen Yi finishes answering, Mr. Chen, please continue what you just explained." ”

Chen Yi waved his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Fukuda said it, then I will briefly say it, before that, I was very curious why Mr. Fukuda had so much courage to directly call calligraphy art, calligraphers as artists, this is a topic that has been debated since the Ming and Qing dynasties in China, and Mr. Fukuda is so sure that he has made a conclusion." ”

"I don't know if Mr. Fukuda is quick to talk for a while, and he has come to the conclusion without careful study of Chinese calligraphy, or is he so knowledgeable that he can solve the problem of Chinese calligraphy, I don't know if Mr. Fukuda can sue me, why do you think that Chinese calligraphy is art." In the end, Chen Yi asked rhetorically.

On the question of whether Chinese calligraphy is art, there have been many debates in the cultural and artistic circles, various experts, calligraphers, all have different views on this, some think that Chinese calligraphy is art, some think that Chinese calligraphy is higher than art, this kind of debate, from the Ming and Qing dynasties, has begun, until now there is no conclusion.

Hearing Chen Yi's rhetorical question, Fukuda Fukuda Fuji was speechless, he was really quick to speak, and blurted out directly, as a person of the modern calligraphy school in a small island country, he really didn't know much about Chinese calligraphy, except for just learning calligraphy, and then he began to create zào calligraphy according to his own personality.

He can't react now, didn't he ask Chen Yi a question, why is it now that Chen Yi asked him a question, and he asked a question that he couldn't answer, whether Chinese calligraphy is art or not, who knows what the hell.

If he identifies one casually, but can't make sense, he can only become the laughing stock of everyone on the scene, you know, in this circle, there are almost no secrets, as soon as this gathering is over, it is estimated that tomorrow the calligraphy circle will be full of things that he is ashamed of today.

The few people who support traditional calligraphy at the scene are very happy to see him lose face as a modern calligrapher.

"Mr. Chen, it is precisely because Mr. Fukuda has doubts about this that he asks this question, and if he can't answer it, can you answer it?" At this time, Kimura Kazuken opened his mouth to relieve Fukuda Fukuda.

Chen Yi smiled slightly, "It turns out that Mr. Fukuda is quick to make up his mind, and answers, Mr. Kimura can't help but see this argument as too simple, you and Mr. Fukuda are both the same problem, too fast-talking." ”

Then, Chen Yi didn't give Kimura a chance to interject at all, and continued: "On this issue, I can't make a convincing conclusion to everyone, but I can say my own opinion. ”

"In ancient times, there was no question of the art of calligraphy, art, after the Western culture entered China, it was added to the back of calligraphy, of course, many people may not need to think about it, to determine this problem, calligraphy is of course art, otherwise some auction houses and auction websites will not classify calligraphy creators as calligraphy artists, in the eyes of some people, calligraphers are artists."

"The best proof that calligraphy is art is the Huaxia Art Research Institute directly under the Ministry of Culture, which has a calligraphy research institute, if calligraphy is not art, how can the calligraphy research institute be set up in the art research institute."

Chen Yi slowly talked about his own views and opinions, whether Chinese calligraphy is art or not, even if it is at his level, the conclusions he says will not convince everyone, but he has his own thoughts on this issue.

At the beginning, Shinsuke Sato and everyone were a little puzzled, Chen Yi's point of view in the previous sentence seemed to be to say that Chinese calligraphy is not art, but why is it proving that Chinese calligraphy is art, which is simply a bit inconsistent. (To be continued......)
