Li Shi remembered that when he was wandering around Yancheng during this time, after nine o'clock in the evening, there were basically no people on the street, and there were not many places to eat supper.

I couldn't help but ask: "Is the nightlife in Yancheng really as developed as you said?" ”

Wang Jianmu immediately said: "It depends on how to define nightlife." If it is nightlife in the public sense, based on the number of people shopping and eating on the street as a reference, then Yancheng is very deserted, and after eight or nine o'clock in the evening, there are no people on the street, but if you want to talk about massages, nightclubs and bars and the like, hehe......"

He let out a "hey" and smiled like "you know".

At the end, he added: "In fact, the best thing is to go to the yacht to play, form a bureau to get a yacht to go to sea, the sky is high and the sea is wide, and no one disturbs." ”

Li Shijian raised his eyebrows and didn't speak.

didn't speak, Qin Zhaowen in the back row scolded with a smile: "If you play like this, be careful that you will die on a woman's belly sooner or later." ”

Half an hour later, I arrived at the Polytechnic.

Li Shi got out of the car with a backpack, and in addition to the lecture and lesson plans, the bag mainly contained the two works he had created this time—these were his sermon works, so he naturally had to carry them with him.

Speaking of which, it was also his first time at the Polytechnic.

This school is quite big.

I observed all the way to the auditorium, and when I got closer, I saw many posters at the door.

Among them, there are exciting slogans such as "genius calligrapher Li Shi" and "a work sold for as much as 2.25 million at auction", but there is no exaggeration, which is quite in line with the truth.

Zhang Huijing and He Yaru greeted him at the gate of the auditorium, and at the same time there were several leaders of the college, after the introduction of the greetings, the leaders of the school left first, and they will come back after the lecture begins.

And Li Shi and the others came to the auditorium.

This is an auditorium that can accommodate more than three hundred people, Li Shi glanced at it, the space was large and empty, but his attention was still on the equipment arranged on the podium.

"Boss, the picture of this machine can be projected to the big screen in front of it, and it can be broadcast live on several platforms such as Douyin and Station B, so that both the audience present and online can see what you write on the podium in real time."

"These two machines are the situation of the live lecture site, one is facing the podium, and the other is diagonally facing the ......."

"In addition, the pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other props you need for your lecture are also ready, right here."

Zhang Huijing introduced in detail.

Li Shi nodded, took out the USB courseware, tried the equipment with it, and after confirming that there was no problem, the group entered the office on the side of the auditorium, and the makeup artist was already waiting.

The techniques of modern makeup are very magical, and some can even achieve the effect of "changing the face".

Li Shi doesn't need to "change his face", he just needs the makeup artist to make himself darker and older.

The makeup artist in her thirties that Zhang Huijing found was very skilled, and in less than twenty minutes, a tanned version of Li Shi with a beard was released. The whole person looks like he has matured more than ten years old, and he used to look like he was about twenty years old, which will be at least in his early thirties.

He looked left and right in the mirror and gave the makeup artist a thumbs up in satisfaction.

At the same time, he also instructed the little assistant next to him: "Help me take makeup photos, and I will use this image to appear in the future." ”

After a while, Qin Zhaowen, who was organizing the students to enter the venue with the people of the calligraphy club outside, walked in: "Teacher Li, there are already students entering the venue one after another, and the lecture will start in twenty minutes." ”

Li Shigang nodded, and He Yaru, who had not spoken on the side, also spoke: "My aunt and a few of her friends are also online, and they also set up a group and opened a group video, planning to listen to the lecture and chat while waiting." ”

Li Shi smiled and thought to himself, these old people are quite fashionable, and with the help of young people, the technology equipment is very slippery.

"Sister He, let's also have a group video, can you help me introduce these seniors in the calligraphy world." He offered to do so.

When people come to listen to your lecture, in terms of etiquette, Li Shi has to go and say hello first.

Even if it's online.

"Okay."

He Yaru took the tablet and opened a group video.

Including her aunt, there were seven people in total.

When she introduced them one by one, Li Shi mentally assessed the other party's calligraphy level.

These old-timers are all famous calligraphers in the calligraphy world, and Li Shi has seen all their works, and they have all been a little there.

Zhen Jun, Jingxingcao, is also good at official script and regular script, enjoys special allowances, and his works have been collected by many museums and galleries. The level of calligraphy roughly corresponds to the (professional) of the learning panel, and a small number of fine works can be regarded as capable products, among which the representative works have wonderful assets.

Zhang Yunshen, like Mr. Wu, is a well-known female calligrapher, who has good attainments and unique style in the field of calligraphy, and her works are elegant and upright, and her penmanship is smart and delicate, and she has served as a deputy of the calligraphy association. The level of calligraphy roughly corresponds to the (professional-) of the learning panel, and there are a few works that can be produced.

Qin Li, Yu Qianglin......

Among the seven people, two (professional) and five (professional-), which can be regarded as a small half of the surviving and truly powerful calligraphers of the older generation!

Li Shi greeted them one by one, with a polite attitude, neither humble nor arrogant.

Although his strength in calligraphy has surpassed these people by a lot, the age of the people is here, everyone is grandparents, and the necessary etiquette is still necessary.

However, politeness comes from self-cultivation, Li Shi's hard power is here, except for this, there is no nervousness in him, and he is confident and calm from beginning to end.

It wasn't until about the time when he walked into the auditorium again and looked at the more than 300 seats filled with energetic college students that he felt a little emotionally fluctuating.

A little nervous, but more excited!

Since he was a child, he has never spoken to so many people, and for the first time, he is inevitably nervous and excited.

But when he thought that he could talk about his understanding of calligraphy in front of so many students, spread his research and thoughts on calligraphy, and take a solid step towards the realm of a calligraphy master, he was extremely excited and looking forward to it!

"Whew~"

On the podium, Qin Zhaowen was already making an opening.

He first introduced the important guests present today, including a number of important calligraphers who listened to the lecture online, and the pictures of Zhen Jun, Zhang Yunshen and others appeared on the big screen in front of him, which immediately attracted a round of applause.

It was the leaders of the college who took the lead in applauding - the students were not familiar with these old calligraphy circles and did not know the weight of these people, but as the leaders of the academy attended, they naturally understood that Zhen Jun, for example, used to be an official identity corresponding to the "ministerial level".

Finally, Qin Zhaowen introduced Li Shi.

After Li Shi's voice fell, he also stepped onto the podium.

Officially stood up, faced with hundreds of pairs of eyes, suddenly, the mentality was different.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered the Jixia School Palace in the Spring and Autumn Period, and felt that for a moment, he was a bit like a scholar who had no potential and came to the Jixia School Palace to discuss the Tao.

I couldn't help but focus my eyes on the camera in the middle in front of me.

Times have changed, and through this camera, I am not only facing hundreds of college students here, but also netizens who are all over the world.

"Hello everyone, I'm Li Shi, a calligraphy enthusiast."

"I am very pleased to be invited by Mr. Qin Zhaowen and the leaders of the Institute of Science and Technology to come here to discuss with you the art of calligraphy that belongs to our Chinese civilization."

"When it comes to calligraphy, I believe that all the students here and online netizens are no strangers, we have practiced calligraphy after learning to recognize and write when we were children...... There must be some people who have questions in their hearts, what age is this, and is there any practical value in this ancient art of calligraphy? Especially calligraphy, whether it is study or work in reality, it is basically not used. ”

"When it comes to practicality, it's not just calligraphy, almost all kinds of art have this problem."

Li Shi's tone was calm, and he first discussed the usefulness of calligraphy in the current era, trying to attract the attention of what to learn, but he soon found that it was not very useful, and there were still many people talking and playing with mobile phones.

However, he was not in a hurry, and output the lesson plan according to his own preparation step by step.

This kind of calligraphy lecture can't be like Ma Yun and Zhang Xuefeng, like passing on or outputting all kinds of funny jokes. That's not Li Shi's style either.

He positioned his lecture as similar to a university calligraphy open class, with the focus on exporting dry goods.

Of course, he also prepared eye-catching flowers.

"My lecture series is planned to be ten lectures, the theme is 'Appreciation and Learning of Calligraphy', today is the first class, we will first discuss the artistic value and economic value of calligraphy."

"Does anyone know which are the two most expensive calligraphy works in the history of art auctions?"

Nowadays, people love money, Li Shi was straightforward and threw out such a topic, and sure enough, this time it successfully attracted the attention of most students.

Soon, he heard a student in the front row say the answer he wanted.

"That's right, the facsimile of Wang Xizhi's "Peace Post" that this classmate said is one of them, and it has been auctioned for more than 300 million yuan in 10 years, and this work has a total of only 41 words, which is equivalent to 7.51 million yuan per word!"

"And students should pay attention, this is not Wang Xizhi's authentic handiwork, but a copy of the Song Dynasty."

"There is also a copy of the Tang Dynasty over there, which is usually called 'the first class of authentic works', that is, the existence of the second only authentic works."

"But in today's terms, it's just a high imitation!"

After the two high-definition pictures of the facsimile of "Ping An Post" appeared on the big screen, Li Shi led the topic to the direction he wanted: "When I was a child, many people should have taken a calligraphy interest class, or learned calligraphy in school, and they all know that calligraphy beginners, the post is a very important learning method and way, but this kind of facsimile is different from the post when everyone learns calligraphy. ”

Li Shi popularized the difference between a temporary post and a copy of the post.

Roughly speaking, Pro refers to reading and writing on the stele, which can be large or small, and is not limited by the size of the original. G, on the other hand, is written or painted on thin paper (silk) on top of the original work, usually stroked first, and then filled with ink, which is the same size as the original work and cannot be changed.

Then he asked: "The post is learning, and the copy is usually to preserve the original appearance of the original post, so the question is, through the post of the post, can the effect of the post be directly achieved?" ”

He Yaru, who was sitting in the first row below, was suddenly a little excited when she heard this, her heart moved, and she secretly said, here!

Sure enough, Li Shi on the stage then smiled and said: "Of course it is possible, for calligraphers who have superb ability to control pen and ink, and have a deep understanding of the original post, they can even directly recite the original work...... Wait a minute, everybody. ”

"I'll use Wang Xizhi's Tang facsimile "Peace Post" to show you a little bit."

As he spoke, he signaled to Zhang Huijing, who was a teaching assistant on the side, and Zhang Huijing immediately switched the camera, so that the big screen and the live broadcast screen were facing the lectern, and a set of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were placed on it.

I saw Li Shi pick up the brush, dip it in ink, and write directly on the rice paper: This rough and peaceful, more than ten days of repair......

His handwriting was directly displayed on the big screen and live broadcast screen through the camera, and in the auditorium, there was a sudden discussion.

On several live broadcast platforms such as Douyin and Station B, more and more people have begun to discuss it because of the drainage prepared in advance.

And when he wrote the first "this" word, in the group of older calligraphers in the group of old lady Wu Xiulin, someone couldn't help but exclaim "I c" - it was Yu Qianglin, who had never been confined to small sections.

The others didn't blame him for swearing, and everyone focused on Li Shi's writing, staring at it without blinking, not realizing that he had sweared.

As experts, they understand how difficult it is for Li Shi to show things!

After Li Shi finished writing, he asked the assistant to send props.

"This is printed out one-to-one according to the Tang facsimile of "Peace Post" collected by Wanwan, and the situation is hit."

He put the rice paper he had written on it and compared it up close.

Except for the flaws in the facsimile, the rest of the characters look exactly the same!

The high-definition lens is shooting, hundreds of pairs of eyes offline, tens of thousands of pairs of eyes online, and I can't find any difference!

……

Then Li Shi wrote Wang Xizhi's "Mid-Autumn Festival" and Yan Zhenqing's "Manuscript for Nephews", which attracted bursts of exclamations.

He started playing, and randomly named three students and asked them to write their names on stage, and then he copied them on the spot.

Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw him write the names of the three people exactly the same on the spot.

Those calligraphy works, you can show them after practicing many times before, but these three names are randomly asked to be written by students!

Although this paragraph only accounted for a small part of the entire lecture, in the evening of the same day, the entry "calligraphers perform copying magic skills" rushed to the hot search on Douyin.

Li Shi and Wang Jianmu returned to the hotel after dinner, and under Zhang Huijing's reminder, they saw one of the related clips with 190,000 likes.

He glanced at the comments and found that the first hot comment was:

"I'll go, this has to be filed with the police Shu Huang, right?!" (End of chapter)
