Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 300 Odds and Ends
Regarding the specific auction matters, please contact Yang Chengzhang.

Even the signature is a Riddler-like y, so there is no need for Li Yan to show her face - she couldn't show her face during the auction anyway.

He was like a student waiting for grades, just waiting for Yang Chengzhang to tell him how much he sold it for one day.

The difference is that if Li Yan fails this "exam", she can scold the teacher for not knowing how to mark the papers.

According to Yang Chengzhang, the people who actually make purchases at every auction fall into three categories: collectors, buyers, and wealthy people.

Collectors and buyers generally emphasize the value of paintings. Although love for paintings is also a basic requirement, in essence they still treat it as a business.

It can be said that they are completely uninterested in Li Yan, an unknown writer who suddenly emerged.

Therefore, potential buyers are basically wealthy people who are not short of money.

I was thinking about buying a good-looking painting that I liked and displaying it at home. After all, anything that can be put on auction is not bad, and I don’t want to sell it to maintain its value.

No, if you buy this painting by Li Yan, it means that you have the best taste in the world. How can you still be called a "nouveau" rich man?

I don’t know why, but Li Yan suddenly had a magical idea in his mind.

Is it possible that Wei Yunzhi’s father would appear in this store?

As for being rich, as a local boss, he definitely meets the requirements.

As for those who are interested in literature and art... look at the kind of wife he married, a female poet!
This is really not a low-probability event.

If he could think of his daughter wearing a royal blue dress at the art performance...

"Which brat is targeting my precious daughter?"

Li Yan woke up from his fantasy. He couldn't really say whether he wanted such a dramatic thing to happen.

But even if it did happen, he would not be afraid.

The question of "whether you deserve it" should be asked to others.

I want to be a man of God.

The auction should be scheduled for the end of October.

Li Yan also had doubts about this. She clearly had no ostentation, so how could she be given the opportunity to appear on stage so soon?

Yang Chengzhang said, "Only those with status need to schedule an appointment. Every auction has works of different grades. For newcomers like you with new works and no endorsement, they basically sell in large quantities. There won't be any introductions. A batch of them will be put there with a low price. Generally, two or three out of seven or eight will get bids, and the bidding will end after two or three rounds at most."

The fact that Li Yan could help the proud Red Dragon "hurry up" was indeed a favor to Yang Chengzhang.

After the auction ended at the end of October, Li Yan had to leave her roommates and go to Beijing for training.

It's really a chain of events.

There are only two-thirds left in October. During this half month, Li Yan didn't accomplish anything big, but he did a lot of small things.

The first is the shining debut of Weibo. Seeing that everyone's enthusiasm for using Weibo is gradually increasing, almost every student in the class has an account to record the scars of youth. It is time for Li Yan, whose account has nearly 8,000 fans, to send out the first Weibo post.

Why haven’t you posted for so long?

Because he hasn't figured out how to show off.

For Li Yan now, it is actually very simple to show off, all she needs to do is to show her grades.

The certificate for first place in the Youth Information Olympics National Competition alone is likely to attract enough comments and reposts to make your presence felt.

But this is too deliberate.

It goes against Li Yan’s pretentious aesthetic.

A hero does not brag about his past achievements. It is a real talent if he lets others spread the word of mouth in private.

Do you have any cool photos?

No, Li Yan thought of the "fan group" that Lin Zhiyuan had when he was an undercover agent, and suddenly got goosebumps.

After much thought, Li Yan wrote a line of hard-pen calligraphy:
"Everyone says the author is crazy, but who can understand the meaning of it?"

Then he took some pictures with his newly bought camera and posted his first Weibo post.

After just one night, the information prompt bar showed a red dot of 99+. Li Yan admitted that she had deliberately not looked at it for one night.

What’s even scarier is that there are also 99+ private messages… As soon as I clicked on it, there were several accounts with female avatars introducing themselves.

It’s okay to introduce yourself, but what’s the matter with adding a non-mainstream selfie?

Of course, there were also some people who attacked Li Yan for no apparent reason. Li Yan smiled, collected some screenshots, and posted his second Weibo:

"Whose family is it?"

Then he closed the webpage, not caring about the flood.

If you like to talk nonsense, go and argue with others. I will give you a chance to do so.

I am still a minor, let alone a celebrity, and I don’t know the personal information of these trolls, so please don’t accuse me of inciting cyber violence.

However, at this time in 09, statements such as guiding online violence and occupying social resources had not yet appeared, and it was relatively free and original.

It doesn't matter. Some bad guys should pay the price.

Mr. Li still holds a grudge.

There is also another insignificant matter, which is "Four Kings with Three" - the group name was changed by Chen Fan because he was defeated by the other four brothers in playing Landlord - the group has been clamoring to launch the geek social website online.

At present, it is basically a pure computer experience sharing website, which can be regarded as a forum for special content. The website itself is indeed not difficult to build, and its value mainly lies in the people who operate it behind the scenes.

In 2010, he represented China in the national team of four at the International Youth Olympiad in Informatics.

It still has some value, and will be even more valuable in a few years - but it is hard to say whether these people will have time to operate the website at that time.

They are currently only planning to use it as an internal data sharing site, so there are no requirements.

Except for Li Yan, he really couldn't stand pages without any artistic elements.

So he submitted a "website ui" to the group.

Everyone was impressed by Li Yan’s strong ability in finding materials.

Then Li Yan asked in confusion: "Didn't I tell you that I would paint it?"

Everyone was dumbfounded. This whole design seemed to be different from what they had imagined "painting".

I originally thought that Li Yan was just a background picture or something.

"It's a vector graphic? You can do this?" He Zixiang was surprised.

"Just changed the software." Li Yan replied.

Chen Fan in the dormitory was very surprised and went straight to Li Yan's computer. "Haven't you always used Photoshop? When did you learn vector graphics? I've never seen you use it before."

“It’s true that it wasn’t used before, but it is needed in UI design.” Li Yan said as a matter of course.

For 60% of software technologies, it is easy and convenient to learn the basics and use them.

Coupled with his strong memory, he can basically learn the tutorial video after watching it once.

During the practical operation, you can understand the essence of some operations and summarize them yourself. It doesn’t take too much time to master a software.

At most, some advanced niche operations have not been discovered yet - but when they are needed, it only takes a day to learn them.

That night, everyone was communicating crazily in the QQ group. Li Yan was responsible for producing various art materials, while others were responsible for putting them on the website.

In just one night, the website went from "student homework" to "tech company homepage."

When it came to art, the four people who knew nothing about it didn't dare to raise any opinions with Li Yan.

The main thing is that Li Yan kept saying "please give more suggestions" while citing her extremely profound aesthetic knowledge to fight back against the opinions.

After the website was completed, it was time for Chen Fan to tell the story.

Today’s topic is “What kind of psychological qualities are required to be Li Yan’s roommate?”
