Almighty painter

Chapter 33 Lao Yang's Kindness

At night, in the underground parking lot on the east side of the Shwedagon Pagoda.

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, I'm very sorry about what happened this morning. I have a bad mouth. I was too anxious at the time, and I didn't speak properly for a while. Don't be as knowledgeable as me..."

When Gu Weijing, who had finished working all day, followed his grandfather Gu Tongxiang to the parking lot.

I actually met an unexpected but reasonable person here.

It's Lao Yang.

Lao Yang seemed to have been waiting here for a long time, and when he saw Gu Weijing, grandpa and grandson approaching, he trotted over with a smile on his face.

He handed over a gift box.

"This is you?"

Gu Tongxiang didn't know that in the afternoon, his assistant Lao Yang saw Gu Weijing painting on Cao Lao's mural, and he once lost his temper.There was a puzzled look on his face.

"It's okay, it's not your fault."

Gu Weijing nodded politely.

In the afternoon, Lao Yang had already found an opportunity to apologize to himself, and he thought this matter would just pass away.

It is understandable not to hit the smiling person with his hand, and it is understandable to be emotional at the time, and it is difficult to blame this kind of thing on others.

What Gu Weijing didn't expect was that Lao Yang, as Cao's personal assistant with a tight schedule every day, would wait for him alone in the parking lot.

"Master Lin Tao may want to accept you as a disciple. I think there may be a young hero in the master's school soon. This is a little gift from me."

Lao Yang said beautiful words that made people feel like a spring breeze, and he handed over a gift box in his hand.

He didn't know that Mr. Cao proposed to accept Gu Weijing as a closed disciple, but he only thought that Lin Tao had taken a fancy to Gu Weijing.

The betting matter was too shocking. Only Gu Weijing, Professor Lin Tao and Cao Lao knew the news.

This is the meaning of Mr. Cao himself. The young Yingjie is the most taboo to be impulsive, and it will not do Gu Weijing any good to praise the child too high all of a sudden.

Even the saying that Mr. Cao is better than me in the afternoon was only circulated among the few people who saw this scene.

However, Lao Yang was still keenly aware of Cao Lao's love for Gu Weijing, so after thinking about it, he decided to prepare a gift by himself and then run to lie down alone, so as to improve the relationship.

Lao Yang can become a top assistant because of his shrewdness.

For a potential stock like Gu Weijing, it is much more useful to ask about his health before becoming famous than to surround him and lick him after becoming famous.

"You are very polite. How can you be so embarrassed?"

Gu Tongxiang held Lao Yang's hand with both hands, with a flattered feeling in his tone.

He knew that the art assistant of this kind of boss had an amazing network and was an invisible big shot in the circle.

If it wasn't for my grandson, a little painter like myself, no one would even bother to take a look.

Gu Tongxiang felt that the bag was very heavy, so he looked down.

"Is this... Lukes' [Master Art Set]?"

There was a little surprise in his tone.

"This set can't be bought for [-] dollars, right? It's really too expensive."

Lao Yang smiled, he liked the exclamation in the other party's tone when he saw the gift box.

The person who gives the gift is most particular about what he likes, and the person who is most afraid of receiving the gift will not know how to do it.

This is the benefit of insiders.

Although Gu Tongxiang can't afford such a good thing, he at least knows how to do it.

If you want to send antiques like the Jin Ping Mei in the engraved edition of Qing Gao He Tang, the contractor, they still treat it as a yellow book.This is a failed gift-giving, reckless.

In the gift box is a set of German painting tools.

As a veteran oil painting powerhouse, Germany has the world's largest number of manufacturers of luxury art painting utensils, such as Faber-Castell producing colored pencils and Schmink producing top-level painting utensils.

LUKES is an old brand of paint and painting utensils established in the middle of the [-]th century.

This manufacturer will sell a limited number of 2 sets of [Master Art Sets] every year, each set is priced at more than [-] euros, which is regarded as Hermès high-definition among art painting tools, and it is the same as the limited edition Ferrari sports car only sold to VIP buyers .

Generally, only painters with certain influence are eligible to purchase.

If you are just a student of the Academy of Fine Arts who is not short of money, or an ordinary wealthy businessman who wants to paint, you will not sell it to others if you want to buy it.

It is undeniable that this is actually a factor of marketing hype. This money can buy an ordinary car, which is indeed too expensive for painting tools.

But the painting utensils of [Master Art Set] can be regarded as real materials.

This set includes a set of master paints, three brushes of different sizes, a silver oil painting knife, top-quality turpentine...

All the paintbrushes are not only exquisite in wood, but also pursue the ultimate handyness.Commonly used brushes are divided into three types: wool, wolf hair, and chemical wool.

As for the Master Suit, not only are all the pen nibs made of wild mink tail hair, which is more moist from a specific species, but also hand-screened, so that it is full of elasticity and will not produce a single intertwined mess of hair.

This is the small gift that Lao Yang chose for Gu Weijing.

Sending money or something is too tacky.

Send an IPHONE mobile phone?He disliked not being able to take it out.

Besides, how many years can a mobile phone be used for?And without a set of painting tools that a painter uses every moment of every day.I use it all the time, and I can always think of him, Lao Yang.

"It's nothing, this kind of manufacturers rush to send me a lot of their products every Christmas or something. I can't refuse, Mr. Cao seldom paints oil paintings, and he also has an original art sponsor contract. Why not let me borrow flowers to present to Buddha."

Lao Yang had a calm smile on his face.

His vision is not at the same level as that of young Yangon native painters like Gu's grandparents.

The circles that Lao Yang usually comes into contact with are all the real big names in the art circle, the top art hunters among the oil painting brokers.

In the eyes of these oil painting dealers, are those top painters painting paintings?

That's a knife, it's Dollar!
A piece of paper of a few hundred grams can sell for tens of millions of dollars, but even the Federal Reserve does not print money like this.

In order to sign all kinds of famous artists for their respective galleries, for Rolls-Royce, for a small private island, for a Gulfstream private jet, for a yacht with matching Victoria’s Secret supermodel yacht girls…

In the eyes of Lao Yang, who is used to seeing big scenes, a set of painting tools is really nothing.

What he said is right, every year in various festivals, from Mitsubishi (that is, Mitsubishi of Mitsubishi Motors, which is also a high-end writing utensils manufacturer in Asia), to various unknown small manufacturers, all kinds of luxury goods will be presented. The painting tools were sent over, and there were two studios piled up.

Although they didn't have any hope, what if Mr. Cao likes it?
Isn't there a story to tell?

Lukes can go to today, the biggest gimmick is still the legend that Van Gogh liked their paints very much.

"Mr. Gu? You're here too."

A voice came from a distance.

Gu Weijing turned his head and saw Professor Sakai and his children standing in a parking space more than ten meters away in the same parking lot.

Next to them was a black Mercedes-Benz S65, which seemed to come to pick them up.

It was Katsuko Sakai who called her name.

Because of religious customs, she was assigned to Fuhui Temple, where she has not seen for several days.

She seemed to be preparing to get in the car in the parking lot, but happened to see a few people here.

"grandfather?"

Gu Weijing turned to look at his grandfather.

"Look at what I do, I don't call me an old guy, but a little girl calls you."

Gu Tongxiang waved his hand as he hated iron for being weak.

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Gu, I also heard that Mr. Gu has encountered some social troubles recently. I know some officials in Yangon. If you need my help..."

At this time, Lao Yang pulled Gu Tongxiang away with great insight.

Before leaving, Lao Yang saw a tall young man sitting in the driver's seat through the transparent windshield of the Mercedes-Benz S65. He was well-informed and seemed to have thought of some gossip in the circle.

"It's the heir of Komatsu Gallery. He actually chased Katsuko Sakai to Burma. I heard he is a difficult young man."

Lao Yang shook his head slightly.
