Almighty painter

Chapter 124 The Extra Person

Friday,
in the afternoon.

In the long green-shaded corridor, figures swayed.

The students gathered around and whispered in front of the bulletin board, their eager eyes looked like bachelors in the old society who were waiting to pick up a rich family to marry a daughter hit by a hydrangea ball.

"Guess who can be selected by Professor Cruz."

"Miao Angwen? Gu Weijing? Marle?"

Someone casually reported a few outstanding students in the school who were always in the forefront of various subjects, and their painting skills were obviously better than those of ordinary classmates.

"A few of them should be stable, and the remaining places are hard to say."

"Where are Mona and Koko?"

Some boys mentioned the names of the prettiest girls in the school.

The original male students on campus are roughly divided into two groups, one group thinks that Mona is a goddess, and the other group thinks that Kou Kou is hotter.

Even if a more popular transfer student came to the school, there are still many supporters of the two influential figures.

"Koukou is definitely useless. Unless someone in his family can get away with it... It's a pity that although her father has the right, it may not be difficult to be a local emperor on this three-acre land in Yangon, but in this kind of internationally renowned big artist artist In the eyes of my wife, I am afraid it is nothing."

"What about Mona, our student body president also got straight A's."

In fact, Ms. Mona's academic performance is not bad every year. Just judging from the report card, she can also be ranked in the forefront of the campus.

"She is very serious in her work. The cultural class can impress the teacher, but the painting is actually mediocre. I heard that Gu Weijing helped her with a lot of professional class homework in the past... Speaking of Here, I think of Jerry, the captain of the school team who confessed to Mona at the opening ceremony, the teacher has always praised his talent is not bad, and he seems to have worked hard in the past half a year..."

Some girls are quietly gossiping.

"Envy, envy, I knew that Professor Cruz would come to our school, and I would work hard to practice in the studio, I am not reconciled!"

This sad classmate expressed the feelings of many students.

This is the most regrettable thing in life.

Just like in a children's story, everyone was originally a laundry girl in a small place, and one day fate suddenly opened the door to you unexpectedly.

The crystal pumpkin cart stops at the door, but you can only watch pitifully as the other Cinderella jumps into the carriage on the road to the bifurcation of life.

Professor Cruz is this magical carriage with the magic power to change fate.

In the atmosphere of international schools in the past, the most popular among students has never been the Nerd (nerd) who is good at studying and can get A in cultural and professional courses.

They are more interested in being "cool" students such as club leaders, school team players or student band lead singers.

The atmosphere on campus is also relatively happy, and many of them spend more energy on club activities than practicing their main courses.

Anyway, for most Dulwich Yangon students, the artistic dream of becoming a professional painter is a bit far away.

Most of their families are not bad, and if they don't want to go to a prestigious school, they don't have a lot of pressure to study.

But no one expected,
In the last semester on campus, an art giant like Mrs. Sakai unexpectedly came to the school.

In this way, the Qingyun Ladder, where the pie falls from the sky, is placed very close in front of you.

Most people can only watch it slip away.

Although, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared.

But my heart is still not reconciled!
"Here we come, here we come, the list is out." Someone shouted.

At this time, the notice board was the most conspicuous place. On the second day after Mrs. Sakai came to the school, the principal of Dulwich College had already removed the propaganda wall of the campus community building in previous years.

The headmaster ordered a small wooden road sign quite childishly, and the arrow above the roadside was written with a cursive slogan in large characters [Gifted and Talented genius class - the road to the palace of art]

Below the arrows are five blank nameplates representing the finalists.

In order to show its importance, the school also made a plastic advertising display board with a full-body photo of Mrs. Sakai next to it. With the cursive slogan on one side, it looks like some supermarket's earthy promotion.

People turned to look.

Ms. Mona, the chairman of the student union, led an uncle in a school uniform, expressionlessly separated the crowded group of students, and walked between the bulletin boards.

"It's there."

Mona pointed to the wooden sign, her tone was a little nervous.

The janitor nodded.

The uncle took out the hammer and nails from the bag at hand, then picked up a nameplate with the student's name on it, and began to knock on the sign beside the notice board.

"Who is No.1?"

Many people held their breath.

Even though this opportunity is destined to have nothing to do with most people in the study, they still gather here to know who is the best one on campus in the eyes of real artists.

【1. Miao Angwen】

At the top, one of the names that everyone guessed appeared.

A tall, thin, dark-skinned boy wearing thick-rimmed glasses shook his fist fiercely.

"I'm the best in the school. Some people are dragging around all day long. They really think they are great artists. No wonder their girlfriends don't want him."

Miao Angwen grinned, looking at his name at the top of the list, his tone was a bit yin and yang.

"congratulations."

The students around showed tacit smiles, and some of them looked at the president of the student union from the corner of their eyes.

They all knew who Miao was mocking.

Mio Aung Win was one of the top students in the school.

In various respects, he is a bit like Gu Weijing.

The results of the two are either first or second, and the family conditions of the two are not good in Dulwich.

Gu Weijing’s Gu’s Book Gallery’s income is at the bottom of the list among the rich and expensive students of international middle schools, not much better than the working class. That is to say, the traditional Dongxia family values ​​education. The old man gritted his teeth. Only then did he and his cousin Gu Lin be sent to an international school.

Miao Angwen's family is similar.

Every year, in order not to appear that there are only a group of sons and daughters studying in the international school, they are too class enemies, and at least they pretend to support the local education in Myanmar and take government subsidies.

Similar private international middle schools will have a few bursary places, specially recruiting some ordinary students with average family conditions but good grades.

More than half of the tuition fee can be waived.

Miao Ang Wenwen and Gu Weijing are all students in the school receiving stipends.

The two people are in similar situations, but their relationship is not good. At least Miao has a somewhat sour taste for Gu Weijing.

It's not just because Gu Weijing can get more No.1s than him, he always feels that Gu Weijing is a little "pretentious" every day.

Obviously, the family conditions are not the same as my own, and everyone is a poor ghost receiving scholarships, who doesn't understand who.This Gu Weijing still pretends to be indifferent to money all day long.

affectation.

What made him even more unhappy was that everyone on campus should be poor and mediocre little transparent except for their studies.

He has never been popular with girls, his family is poor and his looks are average, ordinary girls don't even look at Miao Angwen.

But Mona, the most beautiful girl in the school, has always favored Gu Weijing.

Why!

Seeing Mona's sudden indifference towards Gu Weijing after school started, there are many people like Miao Angwen who feel secretly refreshed.

The chairperson of the female student union on one side turned a deaf ear to Miao Angwen's mockery of Gu Weijing.

Mona just nervously looked at the sign in the janitor's hand, calculating in her heart.

If Miss Sakai is not included, there are only five places in total.

After deducting a few students who are recognized as obviously better than others, there are only one or two places left for ordinary students.

"Can I get it?"

Mona felt a little depressed when she thought of her previous unsuccessful private visits.

No.2 in the list is the girl called Marle from the classmates. No.3 and No.4 are also students who often go to the studio to study on campus.

No pains, no gains. It is not surprising that the works of good students in the past are more likely to be picked by Mrs. Sakai.

However, although his name did not appear on the list.

But Gu Weijing was not selected by Professor Cruz as a priority.

Not only did he not get No.1 like in the past.

He wasn't even No.3 or No.4, which made Mona feel a little indescribable.

A person who sails against the current, retreats if he does not advance, and wastes his time beyond his control, just like what she said, the reality will naturally slap him in the face.

Mona sneered in her heart.

She had just glanced around quietly, and there was no sign of Gu Weijing among the crowd waiting to announce the list.

It seems that this guy doesn't care about himself at all.

"Who is the last one?"

"Gu Weijing, he used to be the best in painting among us. Even if he didn't perform well in his homework during the holidays, it shouldn't be a problem to be selected into the genius class with a high probability."

"Tch, it's hard to say. The artist's vision in selecting students is not comparable to that of the teachers in our school. Maybe people think that Gu Weijing's painting style is too ingenious."

Miao Angwen looked triumphant and analyzed at this time: "I think Gu Weijing is not bad except for his sense of space, and the rest is actually nothing outstanding. His good grades in the past, to put it bluntly, are just tricks by relying on his talent. .”

Mona was not in the mood to listen to other people's comments.

She pinched her fingertips, looking nervously at the last blank space.

The janitor took out another sign from his cloth pocket, and before the uncle had nailed it on the shelf, a sharp-eyed classmate saw the name on the sign.

It was neither Gu Weijing as everyone had guessed, nor Mona.

But...

"Jerry Conrad, it's Jerry!"

The younger brother of the school team patted the shoulder of the tall blond boy excitedly, "Boss is amazing...he will become a great artist in the future, don't forget us brothers."

"Fuck, no wonder you have the courage to confess your love to Miss Sandenu at the opening ceremony, you really don't show your face." There are dog legs flattering.

"Where is it, it's just that my father took me back to my hometown in Germany for a month of special training in a studio in winter, and a teacher from the Hamburg Academy of Fine Arts gave me some pointers."

Jerry rubbed his hands too, excited.

He unconsciously looked at the desolate student council president, and felt that his luck was really good.

This semester is the time to prepare your portfolio for college applications.

Parents from all walks of life are also the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their own talents. Not only Mona's family can spend money to invite outstanding graduates from previous schools to teach her how to draw.

Jerry, who has better family conditions, was directly packed by his foreign company executive's father and sent to his "hometown" in Germany, where he stayed in a private studio for more than a month.

That studio can only be regarded as a small studio in Germany, where the art industry is very prosperous, but the owner of the studio is a lecturer at the Hamburg Academy of Fine Arts.

That's one of the best art schools in the world.

Although the Hamburg Academy of Fine Arts is not one of the four old international art academies.

However, in recent years, top artists have accepted the invitation of the school to become tenured professors of the school.

Majors such as the Department of Visual Art and the Department of Oriental Art have a vague meaning of coming from behind, and even occasionally aspire to the first place in the rankings of some European art academies.

After being taught by the lecturers of the Hamburg Academy of Fine Arts for more than a month, Jerry felt that his painting ability and understanding of art had completely changed.

Only then did he have the confidence to use the campus tradition to pursue Mona at the opening ceremony.

Unexpectedly, it was unintentional.

After returning to Myanmar this semester, it was such a good thing that Mrs. Sakai became an external professor of Dulwich College.

In the past, my grades could only be considered in the middle, but I was able to pass the line and entered Mrs. Sakai's improvement class.

This made Jerry very happy.

"Once the boss exerts his strength, those cats and dogs are all worthless."

Someone praised: "The micro-movie that the boss made a few days ago has already exceeded [-] views on Youtube. To become Mrs. Sakai's student, the social welfare is so good. It doesn't give other students a living."

"That's right, that's right. Now Mona can't escape the boss's palm, and Gu Weijing didn't even enter the list of improvement classes. He has no face to compare with our boss Jerry."

"What is it called Mona? Sister-in-law." The younger brother laughed.

"Boss treats guests today! Let's go eat Japanese food!"

The boys on the varsity team started booing.

Many girls stared at Mona with jealous eyes.Such a handsome, rich and talented young master pursued him, and they were so envious that they wished they could replace him with their own bodies.

Another focus of the younger brother's mouth, Mona is currently shrouded in great disappointment.

In fact, that day, Mrs. Sakai commented that she was "nothing special", so ordinary that she could enter the improvement class only if other people's paintings were worse than her own. The girl was mentally prepared.

But the cruel reality is before her eyes, and Mona is still shrouded in great disappointment.

"After all, didn't you seize the opportunity..."

She lowered her head, as if a boulder was pressed against her chest, and even her breathing was a little suppressed.

"Wait, what is that?"

Some students suddenly discovered that the janitor uncle did not leave immediately.

He actually took out another cardboard card from the cloth bag, which was obviously different from other log-colored nameplates.

It seems that I found a cardboard temporarily in the later stage and made it alone.

Someone had written a line of letters on it in scribbled marker handwriting.

"Miss Mona Sandeno, you've also been accepted—Adriana Cruz."

　Say more.There must be more things to add.But my homework and writing status is not very good.Try to adjust your schedule.
