At Gu Weijing's feet are more than a dozen palettes, each containing different shades of paint.

It's not just a color palette.

His clothes, arms, and the backs of his hands were covered with sticky paint. Some of them were accidentally rubbed on, and some of them were applied to the back of his hand when he was mixing paints to compare different recipes.

This made Gu Weijing's whole person even look a little scary, plus he kept muttering the names of the pigments that others couldn't understand.

He even felt a little crazy.

At this time, Gu Weijing was completely immersed in painting and immersed in the world of the grand and solemn "Dharma Protector Buddha Picture".

This kind of color grading, contrasting, and coloring work gives him the pleasure of playing against his ancestors.

The paint at hand is the number, the notes in the mind are the formula, and the colors on the fresco in front of you are the answers given by the ancient painters.

This kind of step-by-step solution and answer mirroring each other really made him feel good, and the dopamine secretion in his mind made him forget the time and where he was.

There was silence, and all that was left was paint, paintbrushes, and murals in front of me.

"Shit, who the fuck are you?"

What interrupted him to continue to be happy was a rough shout, and Gu Weijing felt that someone was pulling on his back.

This caused him to almost smear a piece of paint on the face of the Vajra Arhat to the side.

Gu Weijing turned around very dissatisfied, and saw a somewhat bald middle-aged uncle, who was wearing a project management badge.

"Old Yang?"

He finally broke away from his world and recognized the identity of the person in front of him.

Lao Yang is Cao Lao's current assistant, who studied art and changed careers to become an assistant, and is also the general manager of the project staff.

Don't underestimate the personal assistants of painters, many of them are professional art students.

Some are hired by the painters themselves, and some are assigned by contracted galleries.

Unlike agents, oil painting agents generally have a lot of painters under their command, from famous masters to emerging painters.

However, personal assistants are often only for one painter on a long-term basis.

If a painter is famous enough, a personal assistant will also earn a lot of money.

Depending on the contract, the combined value of the oil painting broker and the artist's personal assistant may be 7 to 20 percent of a painter's total income.

Lao Yang - he can be the assistant of a great painter at the level of Cao Lao, and he can be regarded as the emperor of this industry.

Everywhere I go, whether it is Hong Kong, Tokyo, Paris or WYN, I am called by the gallery owners, art tycoons Mr. Yang, Mr. Yang, Monsieur.Yang.

Not to mention how much money he can draw from Cao Lao's contract.

To put it mildly, even if he didn't work for nothing, after a hundred years of Cao Lao, relying on the vision, connections and connections he had accumulated, some of the world's top galleries were willing to offer a seven-figure salary to hire him as an agent.

After Cao Lao finished worshipping the Buddha in the afternoon, he was going to complete the painting of the No. 17 mural.

Lao Yang habitually took the lead in coming back to inspect and inspect the painting tools, brewing the tea to a suitable temperature, and if the pigment of the tin tube was used, he would simply rub the pigment with his hands.

The high-grade pigments used by Cao Lao rarely have the situation that the powder and peach gum are separated from each other.

But Lao Yang is a professional art assistant, and he is used to doing everything from art exhibition arrangements to clothing, food, housing and transportation.

The big names in the old society were taken care of by their servants every day before they came to the stage - the teacups were taken care of alone, and the hot towels were taken care of by special people......

Lao Yang does not feel that his work is inferior.

He gets a high salary, just to make many painters with self-care skills at the level of people with disabilities, except for painting, everything can be done comfortably.

Having said that, if Gu Weijing had an assistant like Lao Yang, such a would never happen if Tanaka Masakazu framed him.

As a result, as soon as Lao Yang returned to the No. 17 mural, he saw such a scene that made him crazy.

"Gu Weijing?"

With Lao Yang's professional level, although he had only met him once, he did not forget this young man who had attracted the attention of artists before.

"What the fuck are you doing here? Do you have a problem with your brain......"

The corners of his mouth twitched, he was angry, and he wanted to curse when he opened his mouth.

It is common to spray people in the art field, and painters are often withdrawn and introverted, and they don't know how to spray back when they are sprayed by art magazines or peers, and they also lose their demeanor when they scold.

At this time, an assistant like Lao Yang will appear.

Assistant spray, economic person spray, online spray, offline spray, spray is unhappy, and you have to hire your own magazine writer and the other party to continue to spray.

Your market value is spraying and sometimes it is spewing out.

Lao Yang practiced a good ability to spray people in this industry in his early years, and after becoming Cao Lao's assistant, there was no one to spray for a while, which made him even feel a little lonely.

He is not sprayed by everyone, generally middle-aged and upward, the smaller the fame, and the painter who has not participated in an international biennale, the more Lao Yang sprays the less burden he has.

And those outstanding young painters who show their talents, Lao Yang will collect the little spray.

Although there are very few people in the art industry who can really become painters, and the vast majority of art students will go to IT companies to do game CG or something, but what if someone is becoming a big cow?

Normally, when it comes to Gu Weijing, Master Lin Tao, Cao Lao's apprentice, shows his willingness to lead students. Faced with the fact that the other party is likely to become the third generation disciple of Cao Lao, Lao Yang will not spray, and will greet him with a smile.

Very snobbish,

It's also very true.

Lao Yang is only 46 years old this year. He is not too old in the art circle, and he is ready to wait for Cao Lao to completely retire before changing his career to become an oil painting economist, and may have a high-income career of 20 years.

He didn't want to offend promising up-and-coming artists.

The probability that an ordinary art dog can become a well-known painter is 1 in 10,000, and if he is admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts, it becomes 1 in 1,000, and if he can enter the studio of a painter like Lin Tao, it becomes 1 in 10,000, and if he can become a close disciple of an old professor like Lin Tao to inherit the mantle, it may be 1 in 10 or even a fraction.

But now, when he saw Gu Weijing graffiti on the wall with a paintbrush, he couldn't care so much.

He felt that Gu Weijing was finished,

Not only is he finished, but he is also finished.

He knew Cao Lao's hard work on this painting.

Cao Lao is a very serious person about painting, and he may be very kind in other aspects, but this aspect says that you are not allowed to be tolerated, and you are not allowed to be allowed.

Even if Cao Lao doesn't pursue it, this is a huge stain on himself.

"[beep]-"

Lao Yang roared in his heart.

"Who gave you the right to paint here?"

He was in a hurry.

"This is a task assigned to me by the staff."

Gu Weijing replied, his eyes still looking at the mural.

"Bullshit...... This is a painting by Cao Lao. ”

Lao Yang is also a human spirit, he knows that this Gu Weijing is either crazy himself, or he will be cheated.

But there is no point in talking about this at this time.

"Okay." Gu Weijing nodded.

"What the fuck are you doing now?"

Lao Yang saw that Gu Weijing was still holding a paintbrush and painting on the wall, so he felt that this guy was probably really crazy without knowing what his surname was.

"Draw."

"Stop, why the fuck are you still drawing, stop."

"Nope."

"No way!"

Lao Yang's temples jumped suddenly, and he felt that his blood pressure was rushing up uncontrollably.

He raised his arm, wanting to pull Gu Weijing away. looked at Gu Weijing's hand holding the paintbrush, and was afraid that the other party would give a stroke to the monuments on the wall.

"Stop, stop, I order you to stop!"

Old Yang roared.

"Nope."

Gu Weijing refused again.

This time, however, he added a few more words: "Now that the wind is strong and the humidity changes greatly, the time difference and precipitation of the pausing coloring paint solidification can ruin the overall effect of the whole painting." If I remix the paint, I probably won't be able to achieve this effect. ”

There is no such term for oil painting, because the oil painting itself will use layers of pigments with different adhesion and expressiveness. For example, in the final assignment of Gu Weijing's Yangon International School art class, the oil drawing of the model was to finish the first draft, and the upper layer of paint was air-dried for a week, and then another layer was added.

Even if there is a slight color difference, it will not make a difference if it is covered by the next layer.

If you really don't think it's good enough, it's not impossible to clear it with a drawing knife and draw it again.

But Chinese painting and murals are not the same.

Especially for this kind of monument, the inside of the wall is like a wafer biscuit, so you have to be careful with your maintenance.

If you dare to use a painting knife to shovel sticky paint, you will definitely drop debris from the original ancient mural for seven miles.

So what you draw for the first time is what it looks like.

This is also the reason why Lao Yang is so panicked.
