Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful

Chapter 139, Joint Exhibition, New Opportunities, Competition
Jiang Zhe ignored the new task issued by the system. He had been using the system for a while and knew that even if he didn't do it, he wouldn't lose anything.

He focused his attention on tomorrow's professional class.

Thursday and Friday are the last two days of sketching class.

On Thursday morning, students from the oil painting class came to the studio early to continue completing their works.

After Jiang Zhe arrived at the studio, he did not look at other people's works. He simply greeted his familiar classmates and then stood in front of his easel.

After a few days, when you review your work again, you will find some problems.

After all, long-term sketching of plaster statues is not a short-term creation by masters. It requires perfecting details and controlling the overall situation, so problems are inevitable.

He began to make deletions and few additions to the pictures.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Teacher Jia came to the studio, looked at all the students' works, and gave almost no instructions.

The course will end in a day and a half. Giving too much guidance at this time may affect students' creativity.

He paid special attention to those students who chose to redraw their works. Although it was a re-creation, but if they rushed to catch up with the progress, could they really achieve a breakthrough in level? All they could say was that they were more serious than the last work. Some problems cannot be solved if you don't understand them yourself.

Teacher Jia saw that many students were tired from drawing and started to take a break, so he clapped his hands to attract the students' attention.

"Everyone pause for a moment, I'll tell you a few things."

The students stopped what they were doing, stood there and looked at Teacher Jia.

Teacher Jia saw the students turn their eyes to him, and first talked about some techniques for preserving the works, and then began to announce: "First. After the homework is completed, everyone will put the paintings in a row, and the teachers will collectively grade and evaluate them.

Second, I have applied to the school to hold an exhibition for our class's first professional course. The school has approved it and the exhibition will be held in our school's art gallery. The school has specially arranged an exhibition hall for us.

As far as I know, several painting classes at the same level as yours are also preparing for their first exhibition after admission.

I think you know it yourself. Students majoring in oil painting have relatively high scores when they are admitted to the school, so your true level will be noticed.

If our work is well received, it is what we deserve. If it is embarrassing, it will bring shame to the entire profession.

Of course, I am not adding pressure to you all. I just hope that in the last day and a half, you will take it seriously and come up with works that you are satisfied with.

In addition, let me tell you one more thing. The school will recommend outstanding student works to participate in the provincial college student calligraphy and painting joint exhibition. "

He paused for a moment and observed the students' expressions. He found that some students seemed to be thinking about something, while others had blank stares, obviously not understanding what he meant or not knowing the significance of the joint exhibition.

It is not surprising that some students will start planning their future development early and learn more about the industry they want to work in. Some students are in a state of confusion, doing what the teacher teaches them, and what the future holds for them. They don’t know and don’t want to ask.

In order to encourage the students' enthusiasm, Teacher Jia had to explain: "The college students' calligraphy and painting exhibition is held together with the provincial art annual exhibition. Using this large platform, it is a good opportunity for every participating student to show themselves.

Don't think this exhibition is of low quality.

There is a graduate student who can already make a living by selling paintings. You should have heard of his story. "

Several students nodded, probably having heard of it.

Teacher Jia continued, "The first painting he sold was the one he participated in that year's college students' joint exhibition of calligraphy and painting. After the exhibition, it was sold for 3000 yuan."

Perhaps stimulated by the start of the painting sales and the price of 3000 yuan, the students who were originally confused also understood.

At that time, most students' living expenses were around 4000 yuan, and this was because the cost of living in Binhai was not low. The school's scholarship was less than yuan.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Teacher Jia changed the subject and said, "Not everyone has the opportunity to participate in the exhibition. After all, our school is the undisputed number one in the province in the field of art. The works we bring out not only represent you personally, but also the reputation of the school. If you go, you must aim to win a prize. If your level is not good enough, the school will not recommend you."

He finished his speech and looked at the students painting. He felt that today's speech had achieved its purpose and left with satisfaction.

Teacher Jia's words made most of the students feel uneasy.

Many students only participated in the school bulletin board exhibition in high school. Teacher Jia's words made them realize that they are not far away from a higher platform, which means better opportunities.

Some students with poor psychological quality even felt nervous.

Jiang Zhe was calm. After all, he had participated in several exhibitions. Moreover, he had a work ready to be sent to the provincial art annual exhibition.

Although he was not nervous, he still felt that he had to take it seriously. He had not had the opportunity to personally experience the competition process of the Provincial Art Annual Exhibition. The level of the college students' joint exhibition of calligraphy and painting was lower, but he would first face the competition within the school, and then he might have to experience the whole process of the joint exhibition competition.

He is not worried about external pressure from competition, which is also a boost to himself.

Jiang Zhe was tired from painting and took a break when Fu Min came to his side. "Jiang Zhe, have you ever participated in a competition and won a prize?"

Jiang Zhe nodded. The school had used this incident to promote it, so it was not surprising that some students knew about it. "That was before the art exam."

Fu Min asked: "What do I need to prepare for the competition? I haven't participated in one yet. Do I need to prepare photos and personal information?"

Her question made several students around her prick up their ears.

Jiang Zhe was speechless. He hadn't even participated in the competition yet and he was already thinking about what would happen next.

There was nothing to hide about this kind of information, so he simply told his story.

"At that time, no one told me what to do. I just followed the requirements of the competition, prepared the work first, and then submitted the work and personal information as required. The rest was just waiting for notification. If our school recommends the exhibition, the process will definitely be different." Fu Min reacted immediately, but continued to ask: "Do I need to frame the work myself?"

“I heard framing is expensive!”

"This is another not small expense." Several classmates around joined in.

A few weeks after the start of the school year, many students have almost spent all their living expenses. The food they eat has obviously declined to the point where they can barely survive.

Jiang Zhe thought for a moment and said, "If I am selected, I may need to have my work framed. What if the school arranges for the framed work?"

"Yes, I think it's possible."

"Maybe."

"Unified arrangements will also allow for better control of time." Although some people know that this possibility is unlikely, they still hold out hope.

Jiang Zhe looked at his watch and saw that it was already lunch time, so he said to Fu Min, "I'm going to eat, and we'll talk again in the afternoon."

Fu Min agreed and returned to her easel. While packing up her things, she said to her familiar classmates, "Shall we go to the cafeteria to eat together?"

"Let's go. If you go too late, the delicious dishes will be gone."

Jiang Zhe returned to the dormitory to wash up, then came to the canteen. He found that the dining seats were full, and the food prepared in the canteen today was not very much to his taste.

He walked out of the small cafeteria, hesitating whether to go to the big cafeteria or eat outside, when he saw several classmates walking towards him, talking and laughing.

Fu Min called Jiang Zhe: "Can't you find a place to eat?"

Jiang Zhe said, "There are many people today."

Fu Min said, "Let's go to the cafeteria together. Mou Xing and the others have already gone to get their meals and reserved seats."

Jiang Zhe immediately lined up with several classmates to get food. He realized later that there were two couples in the class who had already established a preliminary relationship. The boys came in advance to help get food and find seats, so the others took advantage of it.

There are many food windows in the cafeteria and a wide variety of dishes, but the taste is average.

Jiang Zhe bought a portion of rice, a portion of braised pork with soybeans, and a portion of rapeseed with mushrooms.

The braised pork has small pieces and smells very fragrant.

Fu Min, who was walking in front, saw Jiang Zhe bought one meat and one vegetable and asked, "You eat so well?"

When Jiang Zhe saw Fu Min bought three steamed buns and a serving of cold-mixed zheergen, he knew she was short of money.

He thought it was not the right time to show off, so he made up an excuse for himself: "I consume energy quickly, and I don't eat meat, so I get hungry easily in the afternoon." He did not forget to patch up the lie about low blood sugar, and then said: "I'll give you some."

"No. I don't eat braised pork." Fu Min refused.

Seeing that Fu Min was still swallowing her saliva while refusing, Jiang Zhe picked up a few large pieces of braised pork with a spoon and put them into her bowl: "I haven't used a spoon before. Try it. If it doesn't taste good, forget it."

Fu Min wanted to refuse, but they had already walked to the dining area and were about to sit down. She knew Jiang Zhe had a girlfriend, and she was embarrassed to give it back to Jiang Zhe in front of her classmates.

She sat down at her seat, took out a bottle of vinegar from her bag, poured half a spoonful of vinegar into her spoon, bit a small hole in a bun, and poured half a spoonful of vinegar into the bun.

She took a bite of the bun and chewed it contentedly.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhe asked, "Add vinegar. Is it delicious?"

"Delicious!" Fu Min replied while holding a bun in her mouth.

She swallowed the bun and picked up some water chestnuts with a spoon. She asked Jiang Zhe, "Try it?"

Jiang Zhe refused decisively. In his previous life, he had tasted the taste of Zhe Er Gen once, which was truly unforgettable.

Seeing that Jiang Zhe really didn't want to eat, Fu Min stopped trying to be humble.

She took a few bites of food and asked Jiang Zhe, "Jiang Zhe, do you think we should prepare another work if we want to participate in the group exhibition?"

Jiang Zhe said: "You can prepare your work first, then talk to the teacher and see if the school can recommend it."

"What if the school is unwilling to recommend? Are there any other channels?" another classmate asked.

Jiang Zhe said: "You will know the requirements after you see the invitation notification. If there are no restrictions, you can try to find a gallery to push it."

Several students felt that it might be even more difficult to find channels to galleries.

Jiang Zhe wanted to introduce them to Wang Zhen's gallery, but because he didn't greet Wang Zhen in advance, he didn't bring up the topic.
