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

Chapter 356: Effects after upgrading, impact of news

It was a sunny and windy Sunday morning.

Jiang Zhe sat on a folding sketching stool, holding a large paintbrush and splashing colors on watercolor paper.

He was in a high position, overlooking a small bathing beach.

The coast, dense trees, and buildings with their tops barely visible. This is an ordinary view, not outstanding among the many coastline landscapes. However, Jiang Zhe, who is in a good mood, thinks that this landscape has many things worth describing.

He easily controls the blending of water and color to form images.

In this painting, he used some techniques of the British painter Turner to make the distant scenery hazy and blurred, and gradually merge it with the sky.

The nearby scenery, under the combined effect of water and color, broke the original draft. Some images were also randomly modified by him.

The first feeling of the whole painting is that the water color is vivid.

He looked at the general effect of the painting and added a few strokes to the foreground, which were actually just a few small blocks of color. However, these few strokes of color vaguely distinguished the characters and the furnishings on both sides of the road. A few simple blocks of color hinted at the direction of the road.

Jiang Zhe stopped writing and examined the picture.

I was unexpectedly satisfied with the result of this painting.

He reviewed the sketching process. At the beginning, he did not deliberately control the color, nor did he imagine the final effect. He just painted based on his general feeling. However, after finishing the painting, he was extremely satisfied with the result.

The improvement of his watercolor painting skills was a key factor in this change. Another factor was the enhancement of his perception, which enabled him to keenly perceive beauty.

Originally, when perceiving beauty, there is some hazy and vague feeling.

It is similar to what is the beauty of a certain image? If you grasp it, it will be very clear. If you fail to grasp it, it will be vague and even worthless.

The enhanced perception helped him to find beauty as quickly as possible, so the picture was also improved.

After realizing this, Jiang Zhe felt extremely at ease.

When facing the honor and fame, I inevitably feel a little uneasy. Can I live up to these honors? But with the improvement in all aspects, I suddenly feel confident.

"How much does such a beautiful painting cost?"

Jiang Zhe was stunned for a moment and actually heard Sister Liao's voice.

He looked back and it was really Sister Liao. Since he started painting, there have been people passing by or watching, so he didn't pay attention to the people around him. Unexpectedly, Sister Liao suddenly appeared.

"How do you have time to come here?"

Jiang Zhe stood up, took Sister Liao's arm, and felt the soft touch.

Sister Liao is wearing a suit today. Although it is very business-like, it still sets off her figure very well.

Jiang Zhe gave his seat to Sister Liao and sat next to her.

After Sister Liao sat down, she looked at Jiang Zhe and said with a smile, "I received your call yesterday and thought I should celebrate for you. Today, I will deal with the matter and rush back. Do you welcome me or not?"

Jiang Zhe didn't let go of his hand and said with a smile, "Of course you are welcome."

"Based on my experience, you should be quite busy at this time." Sister Liao said with a smile: "Are there any young girls who would like to come over to me?"

Jiang Zhe said, "Yes, there are a lot, but when I think of you, I lose interest. So I turned down a lot of invitations.

Now that you are back, let's~"

Sister Liao said: "If you like, let's go swimming first. Then have dinner in the afternoon~"

"What do you want?" Jiang Zhe asked jokingly.

"How about you teach me how to draw?"

Jiang Zhe was speechless.

Sister Liao laughed: "Don't worry, I will definitely satisfy you."

Jiang Zhe thought that the swimming that Sister Liao mentioned was swimming at the beach. In Binhai, people swim all year round, and some people even swim in winter every year.

However, Sister Liao took her to an indoor swimming pool.

This swimming pool is sparsely populated, has luxurious facilities and clear water.

Before changing into his swimsuit, Jiang Zhe went to check the pool water and found no strange smell.

He once heard from a sports coach that many indoor swimming pools use irregular water in order to save money, and disinfectants are added for safety reasons. It is said that if you swim in such water for a long time, your sweat hair will turn golden.

After confirming that the water was fine, he changed into his swimsuit and waited for a while. Then he saw Sister Liao coming out in a swimming towel.

Sister Liao met his gaze and untied her swimming towel, revealing her dazzling white skin and a black one-piece swimsuit, which set off her extremely attractive figure.

Let's start. She did some exercises and slowly entered the water. Jiang Zhe stared at Sister Liao and followed her into the water to avoid embarrassment.

Jiang Zhe's swimming skills come from the system, while Sister Liao practiced them on her own and are very proficient.

When two people are swimming, it is inevitable that they are close to each other.

Sister Liao was pushed underwater by Jiang Zhe several times. She wiped the water off her face and said, "How long have you been holding it in?"

"You're the one who always teases me."

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Today, let's go to a new place to eat."

The two came to a Cantonese restaurant.

The restaurant mainly serves seafood, and Sister Liao ordered a bottle of noble rot Sauternes wine.

This was the first time Jiang Zhe tasted this wine and he felt it was much better than any dry white or red wine.

Sister Liao took a sip of wine and said to Jiang Zhe, "Before I came back, I talked to Xiao Ning on the phone. She asked me to send her blessings. She also said that she was waiting for your paintings to appreciate in value."

Jiang Zhe said: "That may take a few years."

Sister Liao said, "It's hard to say. It's been just over a year since I first met you, and your paintings have gone from a few hundred or a few thousand to hundreds of thousands."

Jiang Zhe said: "I am a little confused myself."

Sister Liao said: "You can't do anything without being fully prepared. You need to be confident that you can handle it. Hey, try this..."

After dinner, the two returned to Sister Liao's residence.

After washing up, Sister Liao asked Jiang Zhe to wait in the living room and went into the bedroom.

"Okay, come in," Jiang Zhe pushed open the door and was stunned.

Sister Liao was wearing a white school uniform, with short sleeves on the upper body and a short skirt on the lower body, which was a bit Japanese style, but also a bit hospital style. Her hair was loose and she had a shy smile on her face, like a high school student.

"Hello, Teacher Jiang." Sister Liao bowed her head slightly and greeted Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe didn't say anything, but he returned the greeting.

Looking at Sister Liao’s every frown and smile, it’s all acting.

Jiang Zhe slowly walked up to Sister Liao and asked, "Why doesn't your dress fit you well?"

……

On Sunday afternoon, the Binhai Art Society, the first folk association that Jiang Zhe joined, was organizing an event.

The organizer was holding a large meeting on the stage, while many people were holding small meetings below the stage.

The president announced to the association members the good news that Jiang Zhe had won awards in two competitions, and the people below were talking about it.

"I've already talked about this before, why are you bringing it up again?"

"I see, Jiang Zhe didn't come?"

"Has he not attended activities for a long time?"

"He's a student, he probably doesn't have time."

"Really? I guess they don't like this place anymore."

"Have you heard about it?" Lao Bian, who likes to inquire about the news, said, "I heard that Jiang Zhe's paintings are not only being auctioned at Time, but also at Christie's."

"Who told you that? This is a bit exaggerated."

This news spread in the circle, and many people were skeptical about it.

"I also heard it from someone, but the source of this information is quite reliable."

"If that's the case, my paintings have been collected by the British Museum."

"Come on, everyone knows that you just gave a painting to someone who settled in England."

Painters' boasting is often unreliable and soon diluted Jiang Zhe's news.

However, some people who were not on good terms with Jiang Zhe had unnatural expressions. Regardless of whether the news was true or false, they felt particularly uncomfortable with Jiang Zhe being noticed.

At the same time, news about Jiang Zhe is spreading through some channels.

……

Sister Liao was going back to the provincial capital, so Jiang Zhe went downstairs with her.

Generally, after exercise, both of them relax.

Seeing that the car was about to arrive, Sister Liao said to Jiang Zhe, "I'm taking the company's car, so don't send me off. Don't forget what I told you."

"I remember."

The car came and the two parted ways.

Jiang Zhe watched the car go away and took a taxi back to the studio.

Sitting in the car, he was thinking about what Sister Liao said after today's exercise.

She mainly taught Jiang Zhe how to deal with people from all walks of life. Some of these people were people Jiang Zhe had never met before. But as his fame increased, he would inevitably have to meet them in the future.

After dinner, prepare books for tomorrow.

Chen Yan asked him to meet tomorrow morning.

Jiang Zhe looked at the text message and smiled. Tomorrow is another new day.

……

A new week begins and Jiang Zhe walks into the classroom.

In the large classroom with nearly a hundred people, many eyes were cast.

Jiang Zhe was already very familiar with the matter and guessed that the news had spread.

Sure enough, during breaks and after class, many people came to him to verify the auction of his works in person.

Jiang Zhe did not deny it either.

At noon, Chen Yan and Jiang Zhe came to the canteen to eat.

She was talking about what happened in the class when a girl in sportswear came over and greeted Jiang Zhe.

The girl had a ponytail and was taller than Chen Yan. There were two other girls behind her.

She came to Jiang Zhe openly and said, "Hello, classmate Jiang Zhe."

Jiang Zhe looked at the other person: "Hello, what's the matter?"

"My name is Ma Songyan, and I'm a junior majoring in vocal music."

"Hello, Senior Sister."

Jiang Zhe didn’t know what the other party wanted, but Chen Yan immediately became alert.

“I saw that the work you created using instrumental music students as material is particularly great.

I have been working part-time outside, and I can also be a model. If you need a model, you can find me. Can you leave me a contact number? "

Chen Yan immediately looked at Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe said politely: "I don't need a model for the time being."

"It's okay. If you need anything in the future, you can contact me," Ma Songyan left a handwritten note. "I won't disturb you while you're eating. Goodbye." She never looked at Chen Yan from beginning to end.

Chen Yan watched her walk away and snatched the note away. "What does she mean? Didn't she see me?"

Jiang Zhe hurriedly comforted him: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, if you are angry, you will be fooled."
