Tang Rui's move was undeniably ruthless. He didn't believe that someone who had lived in the United States for many years would understand and appreciate calligraphy, an ancient Eastern art. As long as he could make Tang Rui feel inferior, he would have won back the score!
The old gentlemen laughed and said, "Very well, let us old men see the skills of today's young people. Please bring us pen and ink!" In their opinion, this young man named Tang Rui was truly genuine and kind to his friends. He probably wanted to promote his friend's reputation by asking them to teach him.
What a loyal young man! The group of elderly gentlemen sighed inwardly.
Tang Rui, who was supposed to be loyal, gave Duanmu Ci a smug look in a subtle way. So what if you're rich? I'm not only rich, but also talented! A mere firefly dares to compete with the bright moon?
Tang Rui even felt a little regretful. Such a crushing defeat was not satisfying at all. If his opponent knew calligraphy, he could have humiliated him. What a pity!
Just then, the staff of "Banbizhai" brought up the brush, paper, ink, and inkstone. Tang Rui concentrated and pondered, then picked up his brush and wrote ten characters: "Talking and laughing with learned scholars, no commoners among those who come and go." His brushstrokes were powerful and skillful.
An old man took a look and laughed, "Although it lacks some exquisite details, overall the brushwork is vigorous and has considerable strength. If one is willing to study it diligently, one should achieve something in ten years!"
"The layout is also very good, with a good balance of density and openness, and a great use of negative space!"
"Although it may sound a bit reserved, these words are indeed quite good. I was pretty much like that when I was young! The younger generation is truly formidable!"
Everyone praised it.
This wasn't just empty praise; even from Duanmu Ci's perspective, these characters were quite impressive. For Tang Rui to write like this at his age showed that he not only had talent in this area but had also put in a lot of hard work.
These praises are well-deserved.
His mistake was provoking Duanmu Ci...
Tang Rui smiled and said, "Thank you for your praise, gentlemen. I am unworthy of such praise! I also have two friends here. Please give them your guidance as well."
Tang Rui is shifting the blame eastward, just waiting for someone to make a fool of themselves!
As a result, everyone's attention shifted and focused, and Duanmu Ci instantly became the center of attention.
Want to compare handwriting with me?
Teacher Duanmu smiled happily.
