Chapter 169 The Road to Your Heart
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the art exhibition.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the art exhibition officially began in the exhibition hall where Jiangda holds its annual art exhibition.
This year, more than 3,000 students signed up to participate.
However, due to the limited exhibition space in the exhibition hall, relevant professional teams had already conducted primary and secondary screening before the exhibition started, and eliminated some marginal works, such as Yun Chuan'an's extremely unreliable paintings.
In order to ensure fairness in voting during this year's art exhibition, the student information of each exhibit will be kept confidential as much as possible.
This is because some students are already very popular in school. If their names and information are announced during the exhibition, the voting and selection of their works will be greatly diluted.
Therefore, the information of each student's work will be announced to the whole school after the exhibition, which will also make it convenient for students to contact classmates whose works they like.
The top 50 works will be named and awarded at a conference after the exhibition.
This year's art exhibition, whether in photography or painting, has invited well-known people in various industries to provide professional comments and awards.
At 5:30 in the afternoon, nearly 10,000 students and members of the public who came to participate in the exhibition had already poured into the exhibition hall and went to the exhibition areas that interested them. The scene was very lively.
The entire exhibition hall is divided into areas for art-related cultural works such as calligraphy, painting, photography, handicrafts, and professional structural design.
As a member of the Arts and Literature Department, Ji Chen was also responsible for coordination work on site.
In fact, it was mainly because of today's art exhibition. Bai Lian came to the party. While completing the tasks assigned by the department, he could also take a look at this little girl.
However, to Ji Chen's surprise, not long after the art exhibition started, he was entangled by a group of girls with various problems.
"Student Ji Chen, how do I get to the photography area? Can you take me there?"
"It's on the left."
"Student Ji Chen, where is the craft area? What should I do if I can't find it?"
"It's on the right."
"Student Ji Chen, I'm looking for a way. What should I do if I can't find it?"
"What road?"
"The road to your heart?"
"Sorry, I already have a girlfriend."
"Student Ji Chen, I have a very serious question for you!"
"Please go ahead."
"My best friend has been paralyzed for over a decade. After seeing your photo, she immediately stood up from her wheelchair. Her previously lifeless eyes suddenly lit up. Your appearance made her see the light. This is my best friend's WeChat. I hope you can add her and give her some encouragement, okay?"
"Classmate Ji Chen, my best friend has some problems too. Can you add me instead of her?"
"My best friend has autism!"
"My best friend is androphobic!"
…
Ji Chen looked at the QR codes on the mobile phones in front of him and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
What should I do if I’m too popular?
After he makes his relationship with Bai Lianwan public, he will take her wherever he goes.
With the temper of this little lemon spirit, he should be able to subdue these beauties in less than three days.
But now, he can only rely on himself to get rid of these girls.
However, when Ji Chen ruthlessly rejected a wave of girls, another wave came.
Even when Bai Lianwan and the principal and his group came to the exhibition hall, he didn't notice it. He was busy getting rid of these girls.
The first time Bai Lian entered the exhibition hall, she looked around but did not see Ji Chen.
Xie Jinglan walked with other teachers, admiring the students' works along the way, wandering between the exhibition areas, and nodding and greeting the students around them from time to time.
Among them, in addition to teachers at school, there are professionals from various fields. One of them is a well-known artist in the calligraphy and painting circles, Liu Zhijun, the most proud disciple of Master Lin Changsheng.
Because his son is also studying at Jiang University, and the Xia family has a close relationship with his master, this time, he came here specifically to participate in this art exhibition at Jiang University.
After visiting several exhibition areas, he found that although these works were good, their artistic quality was relatively low.
But even so, he still patiently followed Xie Jinglan and his group to visit and look at each exhibition area. After all, this was not a professional exhibition, and the requirements certainly could not be that high.
Soon, the group arrived at the painting exhibition area.
As soon as you enter the exhibition area, you will see rows of dazzling paintings, including sketches, watercolors, sand paintings, and Chinese paintings.
The group walked around the painting area and stopped here and there. Most of the works were quite standard, but of course there were some that caught their eyes, and they would stop to discuss and admire them.
Although Jiangbei is not a professional art school, it does put a lot of effort into cultivating students' artistic talents.
After walking around most of the calligraphy and painting area, Liu Zhijun, Xie Jinglan and their group discovered many good works.
Bai Lianwan looked at these paintings without much interest. She was wondering if Ji Chen didn't come today.
After walking around the painting area for a while, when the group reached two-thirds of the painting exhibition area, their attention was attracted by a group of people gathered not far away.
At this moment, a group of students and social workers were gathered in front of an ink painting on an easel, stopping to watch.
Although most of them know little about Chinese painting, they can still feel the visual impact of the painting and the strong atmosphere of love in the artistic conception from the painting in front of them.
"This painting seems to be quite interesting, and it makes me feel warm inside."
"Me too. Why is it that just a willow tree and two little sparrows can make people feel shocked and at the same time feel warm?"
"I don't know how impressive this is. I really want to know who the artist of this painting is and how he created it."
…
At this time, Xie Jinglan, Bai Lianwan and their group also came to the crowd. Hearing everyone's discussions, Xie Jinglan couldn't help but become curious. What kind of painting could attract so many people to gather here?
In previous art exhibitions, ink painting was considered a relatively unpopular type of painting. After all, most young people nowadays are not very interested in ink painting.
Soon, several people came into the crowd.
Many students automatically stepped aside when they saw that it was the principal, vice-principal and Professor Bai.
When they arrived in front of the painting, the relaxed expressions on their faces suddenly froze for a moment when they saw the ink painting on the display stand in front of them!
Although Xie Jinglan did not specifically study Chinese painting, Xia Zhonggeng was very fond of these ink paintings.
Over time, she also learned a lot from it.
She had also seen many works of ink painting masters, but the one in front of her instantly caught her eye.
Just from the composition of this ink painting, the profound painting skills, and the artistic conception it conveys, it seems to be more shocking than all the ink paintings she has seen before.
In particular, Liu Zhijun, who was always steady and calm, after a brief moment of daze, strode to the display stand and looked at it carefully as if it were a treasure.
Even Bai Lianwan, who was hardly in the right state of mind throughout the entire process, was instantly struck by the visually artistic picture when she saw this painting, and her heart trembled slightly.
This work looks so...warm.
At this moment, she seemed to be able to feel firsthand the state of the two little sparrows when they were together on the willow tree.
I even felt a familiar and warm feeling.
She had already missed Ji Chen a little, and after seeing this painting, she felt that the indescribable longing seemed to be even stronger.
