How did I become an old artist?

Chapter 159 April, the wind is blowing, it's time for the kite to go to the sky

After the typhoon passed through, Zhao Chen helped the village rebuild together.

Gradually, everything returned to normal.

The city is full of traffic and people are coming and going on the road, which is very lively.

For most people, this is just a small episode in life.

The little ones ran out to play in the yard again.

In the antique courtyard, there is a sense of tranquility.

Zhao Chen took out the scroll and started to conceive and create again.

He felt it was still not enough.

If you don't have enough inspiration, don't write.

His painting skills are already at the peak, but he has not yet reached the point where he is confident.

Art is about emotion.

"Huh, it's still a little bit close."

"In the current state, what is drawn is still a bit worse."

Zhao Chen put down his pen.

He received a lot of messages on his mobile phone, and many people were concerned about his situation.

Many museums are greeting him.

These museums are also afraid.

Now the restoration work of calligraphy and painting cultural relics in the Song and Yuan Dynasties is in full swing, paper is a consumable after all, if something goes wrong with Zhao Chen, then this kind of paper will be out of print.

In addition, many calligraphy and painting masters are making appointments with Zhao Chen, and everyone hopes that he can make another batch of Song imitation Chengxintang papers.

This kind of paper is the best rice paper, perfect for painting.

Zhao Chen's current status in the art world is indeed very high.

Regarding rice paper, Zhao Chen will continue to make it in the future.He plans to build a traditional paper mill by himself in the town. The traditional paper mill has no industrial equipment and is all handmade, and the price is not too expensive.

Then, Zhao Chen can continue to produce Song Fang Chengxintang paper.

Moreover, all the paper is made of two layers, and there will be an exclusive imprint rubbing on it at the corner, which can also avoid the situation of being pirated.

The paper mill opens every six months, and produces about [-] sheets of paper at a time. The price will be cheaper than selling to museums, but not too much cheaper.

Zhao Chen walked out of the yard.

After the typhoon, the kestrels in the backyard also flew away, probably continuing to search for their own sky.

He has nothing to do and plans to make some more porcelain.

Recently, too many people asked him for porcelain, and many museums offered generous prices. Zhao Chen couldn't shirk it, and agreed to several museums to make porcelain.

However, these museums did not emphasize the delivery time, so his work was not so urgent.

There are many benefits to being famous.

What's more, his works are worthy of the name, so they are even more popular with everyone.

Zhao Chen went to the quarry below to configure the glaze. Every time he used the best glaze, it would cost a lot of money.

During the two days of preparing porcelain, Zhao Chen saw an interesting activity on the Internet.

This activity attracted Zhao Chen's attention almost immediately.

When he started making porcelain, he also mentioned it to netizens.

In the footage of the drone, Zhao Chen is sitting in the workshop, carefully handling the porcelain blanks.

The clay was quickly shaped in his hands.

Netizens especially like to watch the scene of him making porcelain.

Confidence, elegance and craftsmanship.

Everything is perfect.

[Isn't this a villager in a certain mountain village who raises wolfdogs? 】

[Hahaha, be bold!How dare you mock my master! 】

[Mr. Liu, an enthusiastic citizen, Master Zhao, a villager in the mountain village! 】

[The master's craftsmanship is still amazing! 】

In the live broadcast room, the barrage was still lively.

During the process of shaping the porcelain blank, Zhao Chen always didn't speak much.

When he finished shaping and adjusting, he said to everyone:

"In the past few days, two kilns of porcelain have been fired first, and several museums have been promised to make porcelain, but there has been no time."

"It happens that the air is relatively humid, and the azure-colored Ru kiln porcelain can also be fired."

"Everything is just right."

"After firing the porcelain, I'm going to participate in an international fun event."

"This event is held in China, and it can be considered an art class, but all people can participate."

"Everyone can guess what it is."

After hearing Zhao Chen's words, the netizens immediately became interested.

An art event that everyone can participate in?

Or worldly?
What kind of event is this?
[Could it be a marathon? It completely fits Brother Chen's description. Isn't the Kyoto Marathon a global event, and the level is still very high. 】

Someone said immediately.

[Brother Chen's physical strength is fine, but I don't think this event should be! 】

【That's right, I don't feel like it either, art activities! 】

[I have nothing to do with art at all, the only contact I have is watching Brother Chen's live broadcast, how do I know what it is? 】

【Master, don't be a fool. 】

Everyone discussed and couldn't wait for Zhao Chen to reveal the answer.

"I can give you a reminder, it is related to flying, and the venue is in Huaifang, Shandong."

Zhao Chen shaped the porcelain body, waited for him to dry naturally, and then went to the side of the sink to wash off the clay in his hands, and said to everyone at the same time.

Huaifang?

People in this city are no strangers, and it seems that they can always hear it.

The netizens in Zhao Chen's live broadcast room came from all over the country, and the netizens in Huaifang immediately guessed Zhao Chen's thoughts.

"Huaifang Wu Yanzu": [I am from Huaifang, I know what activity the master is talking about! 】

Seeing his barrage, other netizens immediately shouted:

[If you know it, hurry up and tell me, how did you learn how to play tricks with the master! 】

[Quickly say what?Otherwise, labor and management will serve you with Italian cannons! 】

[Better than ink blots!Let's put the matryoshka here! 】

Seeing the surging barrage, Wu Yanzu's expression changed in Huaifang, and he immediately sent out the barrage:

[It is the Huaifang International Kite Festival, which is held from April 4th to April 20th every year. More than 4 countries from all over the country will participate. It is the earliest local festival recognized internationally in my country! 】

Seeing this barrage, everyone suddenly realized.

It turned out to be the Kite Festival.

This was originally a local festival, but because it was held so well and had a romantic and literary atmosphere, it attracted people from many countries to come and watch it every year.

Huaxia's contestants are the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, each showing their special abilities.

When it comes to the competition festival, kites of any shape can be seen in the sky.

People's creativity is fully displayed at this moment.

Foreigners can't help being amazed by the wisdom of the Chinese people when they see the kites created by the Chinese people.

After Zhao Chen washed his hands, he looked at the barrage and found that everyone had already guessed that it was the Kite Festival.

He nodded and responded:

"That's right, the event I'm going to participate in is the International Kite Festival."

"Huaifang is the hometown of kites. It was called Huai County in ancient times, and it was also called Yuandu. The kites and New Year pictures in this place are famous both at home and abroad."

"The earliest kite in Huaifang was the first 'wooden kite' made by Mo Zhai, a thinker in the state of Lu. It has a history of more than 2000 years."

"The craft of making kites here is very good, and kites are also one of our country's intangible cultural heritage."

"How powerful the kites are here can be explained by a single statistic."

"That is, 70.00% of the world's kite exports are all exported from Huaifang."

"A city's kites account for [-]% of the world's kites. One can imagine how powerful the kites here are."

"This time I will also make a kite to participate in the competition, and enjoy other people's works by the way."

When Zhao Chen thought of such a competition-like cultural activity, he felt a little itch for a moment.

Such activities can often greatly stimulate people's inspiration and make art show the beauty of a hundred flowers blooming.

The sky is full of exquisite kites.

People from more than 30 countries will bring kites to participate in the competition.

How can such a scene not be shocking!

"Cherry Big Maruko": 【Hearing what the master said, I suddenly look forward to it! 】

"Two distinguished guests upstairs": [Trust Brother Chen's craftsmanship, it's absolutely amazing! 】

"I'm afraid Charlotte will misunderstand": [There are many big masters at the Kite Festival, I saw it last year, and there are really big masters everywhere! 】

"Outstanding": [Brother Chen is also a boss, let's watch the bosses compete on the same stage! 】

The barrage is lively.

After all, it was a big event, and many people couldn't go to the scene due to work and life reasons. They were already very satisfied to see it from the live broadcast room.

At this time, Zhao Chen said again:
"I now have a rough idea of ​​making a kite, but I still need to see if it can be realized."

"When the time comes, I will go there, and if I have time, I will broadcast the local culture to everyone."

Hearing Zhao Chen's words, everyone was full of expectations.

After all, it is really wonderful to watch the process of a master craftsman making a work of art bit by bit.

In April, it was windy.

The kite is going to fly into the sky.

Now that the society is more and more developed and people have more and more fun, it seems that children seldom play kites anymore.

But 20 years ago, kite flying was one of the most popular activities in the park.

The Huaifang kite has become an intangible cultural heritage.

Times are passing and changing, the ships of the new era are sailing forward, and the culture of the old era is still being passed on.

Zhao Chen is one of the inheritors, and will continue to pass on.
