Almighty painter

Chapter 416 The Outstanding Few

"Art, just art."

Sir Brown felt all eyes on him.

He said in the deep tone unique to a respected scholar: "It's not medical, it's not popular, and it's not amateur. It's not that Detective Cat is not good at drawing, but that she is not artistic."

"She can be a pediatrician, a tarot card reader, or an advertising artist serving her employer. But the artist, I'm sorry, so far, I still haven't seen her in her. The artist side.”

"It must be stated. I am not discriminating against illustrations. I can see the artistry shining in outstanding artists like Jane Arnold and Van Dorn, and the light of art flows in every stroke. But not Detective Cat . I can’t feel the artistry in her paintings.”

"I know that this view will generate a lot of social pressure, but I must take the serious stance of Oil Painting magazine and make an official judgment on behalf of the magazine."

“Art magazines can never just say nice things.”

"In this era of entertainment to death, we should guide the public to distinguish the difference between noble art and inferior art, and improve everyone's art appreciation level. Teach them what art is in line with the long-standing lifestyle of our European civilized world. This is "Oil Painting" The great original intention of the magazine from the day it was founded. For this reason, I am willing to be Socrates who was expelled by the mob and also to sing the opposite tune."

"This is a war for art critics."

Sir Brown had a passionate expression on his face, as if he was ready to sacrifice his life at any moment and go to the stake.

"This is the glorious moment of die or honor in the folk proverb."

The words ended with his words.

The online comment section has also exploded.

"What the hell, Detective Cat must have offended someone. On this occasion, being treated as a target for a vulgar artist is because she didn't die quickly enough. Who would dare to discuss cooperation with her in the future?"

"Ooooooh! I think the hype for her on the Internet has gone too far. The sales of "The Little Prince" are so explosive. It must be the marketing team behind it. Someone with the capital wants to promote a second Banksy to make money. She is a It’s just a bullshit artist, but there are fools out there who believe it. Well done to Sir Brown! He finally stood up.”

"Huh? Why do I feel that Sir Brown's impassioned look is a bit fake? He is the chairman of "Oil Painting", and Detective Cat has only been famous for a hundred days at best. What is the status of Sir Brown, and what is the status of Detective Cat? The two of them have nothing to do with each other. They are not on the same level. He is obviously just a soft persimmon, but watching his speech, it felt like he was going to be killed by a gunman hired by Detective Cat after he stepped off the stage."

"They are declaring war on all those artists who are mixed in the group of painters and pretend to be artists. And it's hard to say, these hidden underground painters might have gang backgrounds. Not all the rap kings from the east and west coasts have finished their fan receptions , was he killed by a gunman when he went out? I admire his courage."

"Idiot, have you ever seen Detective Cat's paintings? She is a children's illustration, okay? This is the same as the left line in those RAP lyrics about American gangster artists who go out to kill a coward today and fuck a girl on the roadside tomorrow. It’s just a trick! Who is this cold-blooded killer who draws pink kittens all day long?”

"If you like to draw Hello Kitty, a cold-blooded killer, wouldn't he be a super-perverted cold-blooded killer?"

"European civilized world...well, even if it is a live broadcast of the European Art Annual Conference, I actually don't like this word. It sounds really arrogant. Why should such a rich, upper-class old white man teach someone with a sense of superiority? How can an African painter paint so noblely? Is this still the colonial era? He said he wanted to plunge into the 19th century, but there is no need to plunge into it. His own speech is quite 19th century."

"I think what Sir Brown said is very good and true. Aren't most of the best oil painters in the modern art market born in Europe? You have to be like a politician and say some empty words to be happy, right? ! You have a glass heart. If you don’t like watching it, you can turn off the live broadcast. No one is begging you to watch it."

"..."

Gu Weijing looked at the fiercely arguing comments on the barrage.

His face was full of bitterness.

"Sir Brown wants to pit me against the upper-class serious art market." He sent a message to Sloth.

Feng Shui turns.

The "Detective Cat" vest seems to be born with the magic power to attract traffic and topicality.

Both good and bad.

In short, he can become famous in various unexpected situations.

Just now he was in front of the live broadcast camera, worried about Miss Elena.

In the blink of an eye, while eating melon at home, the big melon hit me on the head.

The heiress no longer has a magazine, but she can still count money at home every day until her hands cramp.

If he, the detective cat, was really isolated by the entire art market, he would really be at the end of his career.

You can't... Miss Elena jump out to speak for you every time, right?

The phone vibrated.

"It's us. We've always been together." The sloth's reply was short.

Gu Weijing couldn't help but smile.

At this time, the mysterious agent still expressed his position so resolutely and stood with him in words, which made him feel a little warm in his heart.

But a pity.

Mr. Sloth's stubborn kindness doesn't solve the problem.

Even if the other party is really a senior executive of the Scholastic Group, Gu Weijing is currently a well-known and powerful figure.

In the midst of the top-level turmoil in the struggle between Sir Brown and the Irina family, it is still useless.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay."

Mr. Sloth sent a second message almost instantly.

"Thank you."

Gu Weijing could not hold his breath.

His current psychological quality is quite good. To say the least, he doesn't need the detective cat to bring everything, and he still has Mr. Cao's thick legs that can still be hugged.

"It's just that I don't understand, why me? Why today is an occasion." He was typing on the keyboard.

This is what Gu Weijing doesn't understand the most right now.

He was like a happy ant nibbling chips on his little one-third of an acre.

A moment of surprise.

He was stepped on half to death by King Kong and Godzilla, who were wrestling with the Empire State Building and the Golden Gate Bridge.

It doesn’t matter who is King Kong or Godzilla, Sir Brown or Miss Irina.

The key is that now is the European Art Annual Conference, what an important occasion!

Every second is like gold.

It was not easy for me to draw the "Wisteria Flower Picture". I worked hard and worked hard to get Mr. Cao to hint that he might mention him casually.

He was so excited that he couldn't sleep.

As a result, Sir Brown, this gentleman is extremely generous!

After listening to two sentences, Gu Weijing was confused and shocked to find that the entire speech was centered around him.

It can be called VIP service.

Is this guy fucking sick?

So free?

The dignified Sir Brown has highlighted the big news for most of the month.

He did not talk about the legendary "Oil Painting" fund, which is as popular as a cash cow and a golden ship, nor the "Muse Project" that audiences around the world are eagerly looking forward to.

There are so many incredibly important things left unsaid.

Bang bang bang.

He held down the little painter "Detective Cat" and kicked him there hard.

How much hatred and resentment.

Sir Brown would certainly not like to see him.

But Gu Weijing is very self-aware.

One's own social status, in people's minds, is at most like flies buzzing around their ears.

Now he enjoys the ending of being brutally crucified with the golden holy spear in front of the world's most advanced art master.

Sir Brown spent all his valuable speech time spraying him.

No need for tomorrow morning.

As soon as the other party's speech is over, his name will appear in major newspapers, and he will become famous.

As long as the artist's popularity is based on the principle of money.

Gu Weijing didn't know whether he should feel angry or honored.

I feel even more baffled.

The key point is that now the name Detective Cat is also very popular on the Internet.

Gu Weijing does not belittle oneself.

In terms of status, Sir Brown is at the top.

In terms of technique, his legendary painting knife painting is also the best.

No matter how niche.

At least at this point in time when the popularity has not completely subsided, Gu Weijing believes that truly beautiful works can still attract a lot of fans to him.

And because of autism.

Many public media have stood by me before.

Why would a smart man like Sir Brown choose to fight against the odds?

Ok.

The rhetoric of "fighting against the wind" is a bit proactive in putting money on Gu Weijing's face. With Sir Brown's top influence, if someone comes to step on him at any time, it won't be considered a headwind.

But you can step on it at any time.

Why do you have to pinch the persimmons when they are at their hardest? Isn’t the same cold treatment as before a better choice?

Gu Weijing can now see a few comments in the live broadcast comment area.

"Why, why should I listen to this old man telling me what works I like. I just like the new version of "The Little Prince" very much."

"Ahhhhh! Why does Sir Brown talk like this? I'm so sad. The paintings drawn by Detective Cat are so heartwarming. I love her."

"I'm a big reader of oil paintings. But I also love Detective Cat."

Several similar messages.

Even this accounts for less than one-tenth of the total number.

But each of these comments was unwilling to be coerced by Sir Brown, and even questioned the other party's authoritative comments.

Today was supposed to be a coronation ceremony for the other party to establish supreme authority in the art world, but he chose to make such a controversial speech.

Let his "fly blood" stick to the opponent's jeweled crown.

Not worth it.

Very strange.

Gu Weijing, the person who was criticized, was a little confused.

"Because you have become a thorn in his heart. The first thing that the board of directors of "Oil Painting" magazine reviewed after the reform was your recommendation rating. And Ms. Cat, your performance, made this ambitious The chairman is embarrassed."

"He even regards you as a symbol. The Irina family was the last painter discovered in the "Oil Painting" magazine, just like they once discovered the master of modeling Paul Klee and the post-impressionist Maurice Fo Lamanc. You are the last name, a flag, of the old days."

"Should I feel honored to be listed alongside the names of Paul Klee and Vlaminck? Or should I feel terrified because I have become a goal that the Pope of Art must quickly eliminate?" Gu Weijing asked rhetorically.

"Of course I am happy. People never need to feel uneasy because their excellence arouses the jealousy of others. It is not your fault to stand out."

Anna lowered her head to reply to messages on her cell phone.

Occasionally she glanced at Sir Brown, who was on the stage criticizing Detective Cat Sister. His exquisite facial features carried a terrifying calmness.

If the Irina family's trademark makes the other party talk about her, they have to resort to indirect means of flattery.

When it comes to Detective Cat.

The other party is nakedly condescending, mocking and malicious.

She could guess something about Chairman Brown's mentality, what he said to her before taking the stage, what he mentioned about the cardinal, and the name of the "Muse Project."

Today is the most complacent moment in his career, when he is invincible and responds to everything.

He may indeed somewhat regard himself as the spokesperson of the goddess of art.

How could a man like Sir Brown, who stands at the pinnacle of honor, tolerate flaws in his authority and stains of misjudgment on his glittering resume?

More importantly.

He must know in his heart what a good painter Detective Cat is.

They just have different ideas, but they are not stupid and cannot see her excellence.

in contrast.

Sir Brown is better able than most of the participants at the venue to understand the potential and infinite possibilities that a painter with such excellent painting skills can unleash.

And people will always think of Mr. Hyperion’s video and Anna because of Detective Cat.

and so.

At his most powerful moment, at the pinnacle of success, with the power of the entire powerful art alliance he had formed, he would not hesitate to use anti-aircraft cannons to kill mosquitoes, and trample her to death completely.

Future troubles will never come to an end.

The old man speaking on the stage must have thought that this would not be such a difficult goal.

"Idiot's dream."

Anna leaned back in her chair, staring calmly at the speech on the stage, with her fingers crossed on her knees.

It looks like a butterfly fluttering its wings.

"So what is real art?"

Sir Brown looked around the entire conference room: "My wife has always liked Gucci products. Mr. Richarlison, who just spoke on the stage, is Gucci's chief co-signed artist. I once asked him, "How about designing clothing, handbags, Why do I like using watercolor paints so much when wearing canvas shoes? My wife’s favorite shoes have a watercolor painting on them. She has to maintain them carefully because the delicate water-soluble paints cannot be washed. They are born to be disposable. Yes. That pair of limited edition shoes costing 6000 euros was only worn for a month and a half and was ruined by a sudden light rain."

"A month and a half? Mr. Richarlison answered me in surprise, as if that was something intolerable. I thought it could only be worn for a week. He frowned and said, that's art!"

"The golden waistline less than two centimeters wide on each Rolls-Royce car is hand-painted, and the painting costs US$4. Someone wrote a letter to protest, saying that this money is enough to use real gold to decorate the car. It’s all plated! The Rolls-Royce Motor Cars division replied, it’s art.”

"Obviously. Art is a shoe that can only be worn once and sells for 6000 euros. Art is a waistline that can be painted in 30 seconds and sells for dollars. Wow, thank you for the hot dog I ate this morning. There is no one on the vendor's hot dog cart. The art of writing is two words, otherwise it would probably be a hundred times more expensive.”

Sir Brown wiped his chin with his hand, "It seems that art means spending an incredible amount of money on incredible meaningless things. The more meaningless, the closer to the origin of art. The skirt of the Muse must be made of pure Woven with golden threads."

Everyone chuckled together.

To a large extent, Western modern art is always closely related to wealth.

"Let me bring you another answer. Art can reflect our lifestyle and our attitude towards the world. It is a precious and outstanding light that can only be understood by a few people."

"Artists are the exceptional few who have the ability to express this extraordinary aura. And lovers of serious art are the exceptional few who have the ability to appreciate this extraordinary aura."

Sir Brown finished this long series of words like a tongue twister.

"Have you ever found what is common and what makes you stand out? Of course, but more importantly - the few."

"I said that Detective Cat can become a pediatrician. People may think it is strange and harsh. What? Crazy? Pediatricians are a respectable profession and need to go through layers of screening exams. A few can be admitted to medicine. The lucky ones in the hospital can become a pediatrician after 5 to 8 years or even longer professional training and mastering a variety of professional skills."

"Similarly, it's not difficult at all to find a shooting range and shoot two shots. But only a few elites who have undergone arduous training and are selected through layers can become Marines, the deadly killing machines in the movie."

"Why don't people think that the old Mormon lady next door who sells herbal and leech massage oils that are rumored to be effective can go to work in the hospital? The bald man who shoots at the shooting range and looks very accurate can go and become a Navy SEAL. . But you can treat an amateur who sells illustrations online without any professional background as a real artist?"

Sir Brown spread his hands.

"It's so weird, isn't it? How unfair. Maybe her sketches are quite similar, but the sketches should be the standard for evaluating amateurs, not the threshold for evaluating artists. It can make autistic children The blink of an eye should also be the criterion for evaluating a pediatrician, not an artist."

"Why take something that doesn't belong to the art industry, put it on the art industry, and call her an artist? Again, I really respect Detective Cat and I have no prejudice against her personally."

"However, this is unfair to the industry as a whole."

"People will think that being an artist is easy. This is unfair to Detective Cat herself. She will also mistakenly screw up her own position. Isn't this the end of many so-called 'painters' who commit suicide?"

"Is the line drawing good? Which of the masters present is not accurate? If the art industry only pursues the image of painting, then the day the camera is invented will be the end of the art industry!"

In his speech, he played a very insidious trick of changing concepts on all the viewers who watched the annual meeting.

The line drawings of the guests at the annual meeting must be accurate.

But as accurate as Detective Cat?

Let's just put it that way.

There are many people whose sketching skills can reach the master level, and there are quite a lot of them.

In a normal sense, many sessions of the Singapore Biennale may not be able to produce a sketch expert above level 7, and there will be no less than ten people in this venue.

But it can bring him to the level of Gu Weijing with the blessing of system skills.

There may not really be a few.

As for the system evaluation, the niche skill of knife painting is the top legendary level in the world. Perhaps not even one of the oil painting masters in the entire venue can come up with it.

Not surprisingly.

Boggs, a head painter who dominates the niche field, is not even qualified to enter the venue to participate.

But Sir Brown deliberately used her words to describe her technique as very easy, as if all real artists can do it.

Some people heard it, some people ignored it.

Even those who heard it would definitely not jump out and point out Sir Brown's little trick at this time.

"When we look back at the entire history of human art, we will find that the saying that everyone is an artist can always be a false proposition. When writing tools began to become cheap and many people could doodle at will, Daphne Qi stepped forward, made the proportional relationship of the painting three-dimensional, introduced the focal perspective system, and made realistic art a professional science."

"When the camera was invented and everyone could master the wonderful realistic techniques with the touch of a finger, the Impressionists stood up. They created modern art, pushed the expression of light to the extreme, and re-innovated the concept of art."

"And when AI creation begins to intervene in our lives, art techniques become less important. At this critical juncture in the transformation of modern art and future art."

"We have no choice but to stand up."

Sir Brown waved his sleeves violently, a scowl appearing on his face.

"We must stand up, because we are a proud minority, we are an outstanding minority. The masters in this venue, as well as the appreciators who are watching the live broadcast and are willing to understand art and love art, we are all in this world A small number of people. We form the cornerstone of human art and shoulder the ultimate mission of art development."

"We have to stand up. Climbers always say, climb because the mountain is there."

"The mountain is there. If we don't occupy the market and guide the market, inferior liars and clowns will occupy our rightful place and infringe on our way of life and values."

"Today we will declare war on them, here on the entire world."
