Chapter 36
When Wei Ge saw the three words on the drawing board, he was stunned for a moment, his body stiffened, and he looked up at the dozens of paintings on the wall.
After a closer look, he found that he recognized several of the paintings on the wall, and they were indeed the works of Yamasukeguchi.
However, most of them are works that have never been posted online. Wei Ge didn’t have time to attend the last art exhibition held by Yamajikou, so he naturally didn’t know about the paintings that Yamajikou had not made public.
If it weren't for the drawing board in the middle, Wei Ge would have thought that this man was an avid collector of Yamasukeguchi.
But now with this drawing board, an unacceptable fact is revealed before our eyes.
The curly-haired man in front of him was Yamasukeguchi himself.
His name is also Zhang San.
Yamasukeguchi's real name is Zhang San, who knows? This is the first time I've seen my idol. I feel like I'm a rough artist.
Wei Ge looked up at Zhang San in front of him again, oh no, Shan Jiekou, and his eyes subconsciously moved downwards.
I still can't believe it.
"What? I don't look like Shan Jiekou?" Shan Jiekou squinted his eyes and smiled. His peach blossom eyes were very charming. In short, he didn't look like a good person. He saw the question in Wei Ge's eyes at a glance.
I have to say, this child seems very innocent. After all, his emotions and curiosity are written in his eyes.
No wonder Xing Zhao dotes on this child so much, even bringing him to him for inspiration for his paintings.
This was the first time that Shan Jiekou saw Xing Zhao care so much about other people.
He and Xing Zhao met during a competition that year. Shan Jiekou did not win the championship, but the so-called champion sat next to him during the competition.
Although there were partitions on each seat, after the game, Yamasukeguchi still took a look at the "champion's" seat intentionally or unintentionally.
This doesn't count as cheating, after all, he no longer has the opportunity to correct his answers.
Yamasukekou is not the kind of person who is so conceited that he thinks no one can compare to him. He would naturally feel happy if someone is more capable than him. If the other person is really capable, he would be happy to recognize him as his teacher.
But it happened that the person sitting next to him won the championship.
But that day, Shan Jiekou clearly saw that the man's drawing paper was blank.
In order to maintain their reputation and cling to the powerful interests behind the winner, the organizer at the time asked Yamasuke to publish the other party's painting and raised doubts.
The judges said shamelessly that this was the highest level of artistic creation, and the highest level of art was nothingness and blankness.
Shan Jiekou would definitely not believe this kind of talk that only a three-year-old could give, but the other party has capital and can do things with it.
Yamasukeguchi is just a poor artist. The second place in any competition will be almost transparent. After all, if there is a first place, no one will care who is the second place.
He had wanted to risk all his possessions to fight that man to the end, but he didn't expect that someone who was paying attention to him would come.
That's Xing Zhao.
Xing Zhao has a very keen business sense. He doesn't like things that are too popular. What he cares about is the benefits and commercial value of this thing.
He keenly captured Shanjiekou and became the capital behind Shanjiekou.
Xing Zhao is a person who values talent. He is good at using his capital to find talented people and establish long-term cooperative relationships. Anyone who has a relationship with him must first consider the other party's commercial value.
But Yamasukeguchi didn't want to be ARKI's original artist. After all, he was not as young and energetic as the students at the Lujiazui Academy of Fine Arts.
He wanted to make money, but he couldn't let go of his passion for art.
Xing Zhao had done him a favor, and this man didn't want anything else from him, and he didn't want to work like a slave to repay him, so Yamajiekou became ARKI's original painting consultant.
The kind that has no name or status.
Xing Zhao gave him support and encouragement at the right time, but he could never repay this kindness. Now he has made a lot of money with his own ability, and ARKI will ask him for advice when he has problems.
As for the reward, a bottle of good wine will be enough.
However, over the years, Xing Zhao had always approached him to finalize work matters, and this was the first time it was for personal matters.
Although it is also for the purpose of selecting original artists for ARKI and integrating fresh blood, Xing Zhao should not be the kind of person who would follow unspoken rules.
When he said he wanted to help Wei Ge, he didn't mean to leak the questions or secretly help to be the hot shot, but he just wanted Shan Jiekou to give some advice from the perspective of a senior.
The flowers in Xing Zhao's home need to be watered and fertilized.
Looks like an important person.
But this kid probably doesn't know that Xing Zhao is the president of ARKI. After all, if he knew, he wouldn't need to ask. Isn't it just a matter of Xing Zhao's words to win the game by manipulating the game behind the scenes?
But Xing Zhao is a stubborn person, and his child will also be a stubborn child.
We have a common topic, and if he is not stubborn, he will not insist on pulling the first place down from the gold medal.
If you have been caught in the rain, you certainly don’t want to tear up someone else’s umbrella. Fairness and justice are what legal citizens and legal artists should do.
"Hello, Mr. Yamajiko, I'm your fan." Wei Ge immediately returned to his state, reached out and held Yamajiko's hand and shook it.
Before he could shake it three times, his hand was pulled back by Xing Zhao.
"Just call him Uncle Zhang."
"Why call me Uncle Zhang? I've told you so many times, call me brother." Shan Jiekou smiled at Wei Ge and reached out to touch Wei Ge's head.
The child is so cute. From a distance he looks well-behaved and sensible, but when you look closely you see he is chubby.
Unfortunately, before he could touch Wei Ge's head, Xing Zhao opened his hand and said, "Just talk, don't touch me."
"Hey, just a touch isn't enough." Shan Jie Kouye didn't seem annoyed or angry, but turned to look at Wei Ge and smiled, "You're my fan, do you want a photo?"
Wei Ge was stunned. He didn't expect there was such a benefit and nodded subconsciously.
Who doesn’t want to take a photo with their idol? After all, no one knows what Yamasukeguchi looks like.
Wei Ge took out his phone, and Shan Jie took it and handed it directly to Xing Zhao in a cheesy tone, "Take a good picture. This is the first photo of me and my little fan."
Xing Zhao frowned slightly while holding his phone, thinking to himself who didn't have a photo with Wei Ge, since he took a family photo.
However, since Wei Ge wanted to take a photo together, Xing Zhao naturally stood opposite and took pictures of the two of them.
"Stand back a little. If you take a picture of the paintings in my room and include them in my portfolio, it will have a different meaning." Shan Jiekou smiled at Xing Zhao, and Xing Zhao obediently stood back.
Shanjie was secretly happy. This was the first time this man was so obedient to him. It seemed that having a child's blessing made things different.
It seems like I have found the switch to control Xing Zhao. From now on, if I want Xing Zhao to do something, I can just call this kid over. There is no need to kidnap him. After all, this kid is my fan.
As soon as you invite him to have a meal, Xing Zhao will definitely come to your door.
Xing Zhao's summoner——Wei Ge.
"Have you finished taking the photos? Let me see." Shan Jiekou watched Wei Ge take the phone, lean over to take a look at the photos, and frowned.
"Xing Zhao, how come you can take two different photos of us? Wei Ge's face is so clear, but how come I'm just a shadow? I didn't move."
The technical level is too high, and most people probably can’t shoot it.
"This is okay, this one is not blurred." Wei Ge quickly slid to another one to prove to Uncle Xing.
Shan Jiekou frowned and swiped through several pictures in a row, and finally sighed, "Okay, delete those that are not worth watching. Remember to post them on WeChat Moments to help me slim down my face. You are quite good-looking, but the pictures you took of my face are too big."
How could Wei Ge not be good-looking? The focus was even on the tip of Wei Ge's nose, and some parts of Yamajiekou's face were blurry and directly identified as the background.
Fortunately, Xing Zhao took a lot of photos, otherwise these photos would be waste.
It’s not a bad film, it’s just Wei Ge’s personal photo album.
"When will the teaching begin? He has encountered a bottleneck in his creation these days." Xing Zhao looked at the room full of paintings and returned to the topic. He must not forget the main purpose of coming here today.
Wei Ge looked up at Xing Zhao. There is a kind of favor that Xing Zhao will take you to a famous artist’s house to teach you to paint personally.
This network of contacts is so comprehensive.
"Are you in a hurry? Then go now." Yamajiekou waved at the two of them.
"Isn't it in this room?" Wei Ge looked at the paintings and drawing boards in the room.
"I'm just pretending. I saw that you didn't know who I was, so I brought you here to show off." Shan Jiekou smiled at Wei Ge and spoke without any reservations.
Okay, this wave really scared Wei Ge.
Several people returned to the living room. Yamajiekou took out a bottle of Coke from the refrigerator, sat back on the sofa, crossed his legs and started drinking.
He looked up at the two people still standing in front of him and said, "Get whatever you want to drink. We're all familiar with each other, so I won't entertain you."
They are familiar with each other. In Yamajiekou's concept, if you stay under the same roof for more than ten minutes, you are friends. If you spend a day and a night together, you are probably brothers.
He is very outgoing and comes quickly.
"Creation can't be taught. Some people are just good at drawing, while others can't do it no matter what they do." Shan Jie took a sip of his drink and glanced at Wei Ge. "I don't need to see your work, nor do I need to know if you have talent. You just need to tell me one thing right now: what do you want to do most?"
Wei Ge subconsciously glanced at Xing Zhao while thinking.
"I don't have anything I want to do." Wei Ge likes to paint when he has nothing to do, and he doesn't have any other special hobbies.
But I've been drawing too much lately, and I'm a bit tired of it.
"I think you need to vent. When people stay in a closed environment for too long, their creative inspiration will be blocked." Shan Jiekou stood up and walked over to Wei Ge to take a look, but because of Xing Zhao, Shan Jiekou and Wei Ge still kept a distance.
"Have you been shutting yourself in your room to draw a lot lately? You don't communicate with people much and you don't sleep much either."
Shan Jiekou asked seriously, and Wei Ge was surprised.
Become a miracle doctor?
"Can you tell that?"
"You have big dark circles under your eyes, and you look a little weak." Shan Jie pointed at Wei Ge, "Your Uncle Xing also looks weak, you two need to take some supplements."
Wei Ge turned his head and glanced at Xing Zhao, and indeed he had some dark circles under his eyes.
"Don't talk nonsense." Xing Zhao frowned and retorted.
But he hadn't slept well recently. The light in Wei Ge's studio was always on, so he wanted to go and see if he was thirsty or hungry, and if he was asleep so that he could carry him back to his room to sleep.
Wei Ge couldn't sleep well, and Xing Zhao couldn't sleep well either.
"The weather is so nice today, let's go for an outing." Yamaji stood up and looked out the window at the greenery. "It's settled. Let's prepare our lunch boxes together and then go out for a picnic."
Seeing Shan Jiekou stand up, Wei Ge and Xing Zhao were stunned at first. They didn't expect that the picnic would be realized so quickly.
The so-called teaching ultimately returns to freeing your hands and welcoming nature.
Xing Zhao looked at Shan Jiekou and remembered what the child had just said in the car. He walked over and asked, "Do you have a kite at home? Wei Ge wants to fly a kite."
