Between people, sincerity is the most important thing, but it can't be without routines.

Lu Qianfan wore a suit bought from a man's wardrobe, narcissistically admiring his handsome and upright self in front of the mirror. "Genius, how is it, do you feel the demeanor of my crooked mouth god of war?"

"The demeanor is gone, the stroke is there." Tang Jie said without raising his head: "I know an old Chinese medicine doctor, let him treat you for the problem of crooked mouth?" ”

"Heh, you've piqued my interest."

Tang Jie immediately retched and said, "Uncle Zhong, get me some juice, I'm going to be disgusted to death." This guy has the word greasy written on his face. ”

Uncle Zhong handed over two cups of juice and said, "Xiao Lu, that line is for a girl." ”

"Where are the girls around me now?"

"That's because you're so cheap." Tang Jie said: "Personality and material are cheap in both a sense of dignity and materiality. ”

Lu Qianfan was tired of Tang Jie's heart, so he had to give up the rich and handsome character. After all, he can have high and handsome, but rich, then he can only hehe.

"What exactly are you going to do?" Uncle Zhong asked puzzled.

"If you want to get words from Qiao Qing's mouth, you must first gain her favor." Lu Qianfan said: "So, a good image is a must. ”

"It's good, not greasy and disguised." Tang Jie added in due course.

"So, how are you going to ask Qiao Qing out?" Uncle Zhong asked.

Suddenly, the noisy room was quiet. If the image is not imaged, people can't make an appointment, how can they talk?

Lu Qianfan, who was poked in the ribs, was silent for a moment and asked Tang Jie: "Genius, have you ever asked a girl out?" ”

"Nope."

"Uncle Zhong, what about you?"

"Neither do I." Uncle Zhong smiled bitterly.

Three men with almost zero points on their love report cards looked at each other, and no one knew how to ask the girl out.

"Why don't we consult?" Lu Qianfan proposed.

"Good idea." As he spoke, Tang Jie dialed Zou Kun's phone.

Lu Qianfan was puzzled. "Why do you ask Zou Kun? How to ask a girl to go out, shouldn't you ask a girl like Yun Jiu? ”

"I'm afraid that Yun Jiu will come and beat you."

"Why?"

Tang Jie was helpless. Lu Qianfan is usually shrewd, but when it comes to men and women, he becomes an unenlightened elm head, and he will never be able to detect Yun Jiu's thoughts. If it weren't for Xiao Ranran's presence, Tang Jie felt that Lu Qianfan might really have to be single for the rest of his life with his strength.

"Lao Lu, he only launched a charge when he saw it once, it is no different from planting rice on dry land, and he can't live. You have to plough the land first, and when the soil is soft, you can prepare the paddy fields before you can grow rice. Zou Kun said endlessly on the other end of the phone.

Lu Qianfan always felt that Tang Jie's analogy was not farming, but driving, but he had no evidence.

Under the careful guidance of Zou Kun, Lu Qianfan, a straight man of steel, finally understood the true meaning of chasing girls, no, routines.

"First of all, you have to restrain your desires and not let the girl perceive your intentions. So, rather than a straightforward invitation, a well-designed encounter is more appropriate. ”

According to the guidance of the scumbag Mr. Zou, Lu Qianfan chose this impressionist exhibition from Qiao Qing's scheduled itinerary. He walked into the gallery casually, pretending to admire the paintings on the walls.

Zou Kun passed through the headphones and said, "Next, you have to pretend to be a girl by chance." Remember, you want to take the initiative to provoke the girl's attention, not wait for her to notice you. ”

"Isn't this the routine of the green tea heroine chasing the domineering president?"

"The methods of scumbags chasing girls are actually similar."

Therefore, Lu Qianfan saw the opportunity, walked to Qiao Qing, who was looking at the painting with his hands in his pockets, and tapped her shoulder. "Miss Qiao, what a coincidence."

Qiao Qing, who was admiring the painting, saw Lu Qianfan and said in surprise: "You are the ...... of that day"

"Horses break the waves." Lu Qianfan remembered his fake name this time.

Qiao Qing asked, "Aren't you a hunter?" How do you have time to come here to see paintings? ”

"To chase girls, you must first learn to find topics. Only when two people can talk can they have a chance to sprout and grow. Zou Kun commanded: "Follow her questions and answers, pay attention to the use of euphemism, and try to do what she likes." ”

Lu Qianfan knew it in his heart and said: "Although the art investment company is fake, it is true that I like to paint. There are not many art exhibitions in Anjing, especially such large-scale art exhibitions. Since you encounter it, you must always come and relax. ”

Qiao Qing asked, "Didn't you say that you like surrealism?" ”

"Picasso's style of painting can change from realism to Fauvism compatible with cubism and surrealism. Naturally, my favorite style of painting can be both surrealist and impressionist. Lu Qianfan said.

Qiao Qing smiled. She asked, "And what do you see in this painting?" ”

Zou Kun said: "She's on the lookout for tempting you. Answering his questions cannot be a mere formality. Pay attention to details and express your opinion. ”

Lu Qianfan's heart suddenly 10,000 alpacas rushed by. What are the requirements, and how do you make it look like a dissertation defense? It cannot be plagiarized and has an independent point of view, which requires a college entrance examination writing essay. He coughed lightly and looked at the painting in front of him with pretended composure.

Lu Qianfan's coughing sound was a code for him and Tang Jie. Tang Jie opened Baidu Encyclopedia on the spot and said: "Impressionism advocates painting without relying on reliable knowledge, and completely based on instantaneous impressions. Impressionism often takes the way of directly depicting scenes in the sunlight outside, pursuing to figure out the changes of light and color with thinking, and attaching the momentary sense of light to the canvas according to the processing in their minds, and this kind of speculation on light and color also achieves the ultimate beauty of color and light. ”

"However, this also requires the painter to complete the painting in a short time, applying the paint to the canvas as quickly as possible." Tang Jie's information is very comprehensive, and he is also very clever to avoid tongue-twisting nouns such as personal names and place names. Therefore, Lu Qianfan can completely parrot his tongue. He followed Tang Jie's words and continued: "In other words, impressionist painting can usually only take care of the general effect on the picture, and pay less attention to the details. The brushwork is rough and lacks embellishment, which contrasts with Romanticism. The rough picture gives the viewer endless imagination. ”

Lu Qianfan gave a thumbs up in his heart, "Genius, professional." ”

Tang Jie said, Lu Qianfan repeated. Therefore, the colors of this painting seem bizarre, the light and shadow are unpredictable, and it is full of a strong sense of unreality. However, his brushstrokes and techniques are too rigid, and the scribbling of the details is more like deliberate. If you look closely, you will gradually discover the truth under this deliberate camouflage, and then the impression of light and shadow under the sun will gradually be bound by the material of the real world. ”

"It's like when investigating Warcraft, the impression of Warcraft at the first moment is extremely important. This kind of deliberate repair based on common sense at a later stage is contrary to the principle of observation and documentation. The restoration record completed in a short period of time excludes the influence of the observer on memory modification as much as possible, and the gap between this record and the final confirmed appearance of the monster helps us to analyze the ability, life habits, and even behavior and personality of the monster individual. ”

Tang Jie's words became more and more excited, and Lu Qianfan, who was learning to speak, didn't dare to say it in the end, so he hurriedly stopped the topic.

"What are you doing, keep talking!" Tang Jie said.

Zou Kun held his forehead and said, "You are off topic." ”

Lu Qianfan hurriedly exerted his ability to talk nonsense without drafting, and said to Qiao Qing, who was stunned on the side: "I'm sorry, professional habits, I didn't stop it for a while." These are the words of my family, maybe I don't understand the artistic conception of a painter. Is it because the painter is bound by reality and form, or is the painter warning us to take the initiative to break the convention, but I am just a layman who can't let go of myself in this painting? ”

", this sentence is compelling!" Zou Kun said: "Young man, you are very talented! ”

Lu Qianfan thought to himself: "That's it, my brother's ability to fool the marketing manager is not a joke!" ”

"I didn't expect you, as a hunter, to have so much research on painting." Qiao Qing smiled and said, "No wonder you can be so similar when you disguise yourself as a collector investor." ”

Lu Qianfan smiled bitterly: "I think I'm more like a keyboard warrior with no mouth." In front of a professional painter like you, I will only be dwarfed, and my so-called appreciation and criticism are at most inadequate. ”

"Lao Lu's talent is good!" Zou Kun said: "This sycophant is patted, whoever listens to it is comfortable." ”

Tang Jie said: "You'd better keep an eye on it. Within three seconds, he was absolutely broken. With the strength of the single thing, he is this. ”

Seeing Tang Jie's thumb up vigorously on the screen, Zou Kun nodded solemnly.

"Don't be presumptuous, lad. I see that you have a vicious eye and a lot of talent. Why don't you just learn from me? ”

Lu Qianfan looked at the white-bearded and white-haired old man in a suit who suddenly walked behind him, rolled his eyes, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Master Lin has won the award, the kid is just talking nonsense." ”

"You know me?" Lin Zhe asked with a smile.

Lu Qianfan bowed his head lightly and said: "Honorary Vice Chairman of the Calligraphers and Painters Association, the leader of contemporary impressionist oil painting, Master Lin Zhe, who wouldn't know?" ”

"Did this guy prepare in advance?" Zou Kun asked in surprise.

Tang Jie said: "I don't think so, he decided to go to the exhibition on an ad hoc basis." I think he's got a good idea of what they're working on and he just guesses about it and makes it up. ”

Zou Kun nodded. "This detail of him is almost full of favorability. It's amazing. ”

In the gallery, Qiao Qing said respectfully to the old man, "Teacher, you are here." ”

"After all, it's my junior brother's art exhibition, so I have to come over to praise the audience." Lin Zhe said with a smile: "Xiao Qiao, your friend's thinking and perspective are not ordinary people. You can talk to each other a lot, and he will definitely be of great benefit to your future work. ”

Zou Kun said: "Yes, Lao Lu." With this assist, you're basically stable. ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." Lu Qianfan put on a humble attitude while thinking about the next strategy.

After Lin Zhe came over to look at the painting, he said, "Okay, I'm going to see my junior brother." Little Joe, you can walk around with this friend. These paintings are all the works of Ah Zheng's students, although they are mere forms, but the techniques and ideas are also unusual. The artistic conception in Ah Zheng's painting has become more and more profound over the years, and you can appreciate it. Unlike a commercial painter like me, he is a real artist. ”

After Lu Qianfan and Qiao Qing saw them leave, the two looked at each other tacitly and smiled at each other.

Zou Kun, who saw this scene, said: "See, in terms of favorability, Lao Lu's talent is first-class." ”

"Miss Qiao, can you walk around with me and take me to appreciate this master's paintings?" Lu Qianfan asked.

"Of course."

The two have admired several paintings, and with the help of Tang Jie and Zou Kun, the more they talked, the more speculative they became, and before they knew it, they were already shoulder to shoulder, talking about meeting for dinner. According to Zou Kun, this is the only thing that is one stroke away from a home run.

Just as Zou Kun was about to celebrate the victory, the two walked in front of a painting, and Lu Qianfan suddenly stopped.

Qiao Qing asked, "What's wrong with this painting?" ”

"Cats." Lu Qianfan said: "This painting is also a cat. ”

"Cats?"

"Unlike that abstract painting, I see innocence in this painting."

The moment he mentioned the abstract painting, the corners of Qiao Qing's mouth instantly fell.

"Hey! What are you doing! It's not time to talk about it! Zou Kun hurriedly shouted: "It is easy to arouse the disgust of girls when it comes to approaching with a purpose!" And this matter also touches her secrets! Friendship will go to zero in an instant! ”

Tang Jie was also taken aback. Lu Qianfan is single, it really depends on his strength!

Lu Qianfan ignored the roar in the headphones and said to Qiao Qing: "Every work of art has its own soul. However, I was in Miss Joe's cousin's gallery and couldn't feel it. ”

"What do you mean?"

"The gap between crafts and works of art is not something that can be replaced by a cat." Lu Qianfan said: "As a painter, Miss Qiao should know this truth. ”

"I don't know what you mean. Are you here today just to tell me about finding a cat? ”

Lu Qianfan shook his head slightly. He stared at Qiao Qing with a pair of black eyes, and his clear gaze went straight into people's hearts. "I'm here to talk about the dignity of the artist. If an artist loses her dignity and pride, her work is just a withered body. I don't want Miss Qiao, a young and promising artist like you, to ruin your soul by yourself. ”

Qiao Qing turned her head, not wanting to speak.

"I love painting, and I like artists like you." Lu Qianfan continued: "From an artistic point of view, I don't want an artist to tarnish the nobility of art by himself. ”

Zou Kun said faintly: "This straight ball is too daring." ”

Qiao Qing's cheeks were slightly red, but she still deliberately kept a cold face and looked at Lu Qianfan. I have to admit that Lu Qianfan's sincerity and eagerness shook Qiao Qing's heart.

"Chen Jufei is my cousin. He had invested all his savings in these paintings for several years, and now he has to rely on me to make ends meet. I just want to get a few pictures of the backlog in the gallery and help him get out of this predicament. ”

Lu Qianfan nodded. "As a professional hunter, art speculation is not under my control," he says. However, I don't want the life of a beautiful woman to be threatened, or to spend her youth in prison. ”

As he spoke, Lu Qianfan handed the mobile phone he found from the gallery to Qiao Qing and said, "This is your brother's mobile phone." I've checked the contents of it, and I think you need to know. Whether you want to tell me where the cat is or not, please keep this phone secret. ”

Qiao Qing faced Lu Qianfan's serious appearance, and didn't know how to make a decision for a while, but took the mobile phone handed by Lu Qianfan in a daze.

"After reading it, you put it on the bedside table in your brother's bedroom, in the middle of two drawers. After that, you'll know if what I'm saying is true or false. Please also be careful. After speaking, Lu Qianfan turned around in a dashing manner and slowly left the exhibition.

"Are you crazy!" Zou Kun shouted in the earphones: "I'm about to catch up, what are you suddenly messing with!?" ”

While waiting for the bus, Lu Qianfan said: "We're here to talk, not to chase girls." Did you misunderstand something? ”

Tang Jie asked: "Then what should I do if she refuses to cooperate?" ”

"I think my mouth should be able to impress her." Lu Qianfan said: "I have confidence in my personality. Between people, there should be a little more sincerity. ”

"I don't have faith!"

It wasn't until dinner time that Lu Qianfan received Qiao Qing's WeChat that Tang Jie's hanging heart finally let go.
