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

Chapter 453: The Impact of the Second Good News

After Jiang Zhe and Wang Zhen ended the call, they sent the news of the successful auction to Sister Liao and other friends.

He knew that this news involved the auction company and would be difficult to control. In addition, considering that many of his works had been auctioned before, everyone would be able to accept this news if it were spread.

Soon, Sister Liao called Jiang Zhe.

"Xiaozhe, congratulations, double happiness."

"Thank you, Sister Liao."

Sister Liao knew that he had been invited to the Biennale, so it was a double blessing.

"When this news gets out, I think some people will feel very uncomfortable. After all, you failed in the national selection, but still got an invitation to the Biennale." Sister Liao laughed happily. After laughing, she warned: "You have to be careful. Some people will not look for their own reasons when they lose face, but will find trouble with you instead."

She carefully told Jiang Zhe what he should pay attention to recently, and Jiang Zhe agreed to everything.

Soon after, calls came in one after another.

Before 10 o'clock in the evening, Jiang Zhe received congratulations from some friends, as well as calls from some well-informed people to express their congratulations.

Before taking a break, Jiang Zhe opened the system and found the honor value page.

After just a few hours, I saw the cursor on the honor experience bar move forward again.

On Monday, after lunch, Jiang Zhe came to Professor Qin's office.

I saw Professor Qin drinking water and listening to music.

"Teacher. You don't have a lunch break today?"

Professor Qin gestured to Jiang Zhe to sit down and talk.

"I heard your good news, I'm happy for you."

Jiang Zhe called Professor Qin early this morning.

Professor Qin asked him to meet in his office.

Professor Qin said: "I heard about the auction of your works. Several other teachers also talked about this matter and they all admire you.

If you sell two consecutive works at this price, it is almost certain that your works will be able to maintain this price. This is beyond most professional painters.

Jiang Zhe said modestly: "This is just one of many criteria."

Professor Qin said: "This is a very important criterion. In fact, in the eyes of many people, only those who can sell paintings can be called painters.

After the failure in the previous selection, although you didn't care much, I could hear some comments from many people. Some people said some very harsh things, so I won't repeat them to you.

With this news, those bad words should be diluted by the news."

Professor Qin talked about the significance of this news.

Jiang Zhe could see that Professor Qin was really happy for him and even offered some suggestions.

After Jiang Zhe agreed, he said, "Teacher, I received a piece of news a few days ago, but I haven't decided whether to announce it or not."

Professor Qin asked, "What news? Is it good or bad? If it's bad, don't tell me."

Jiang Zhe smiled and said, "It's good news."

He had been trying his best to control the news and not let it spread in the school, because he wanted to have a quiet life. Many people in the school failed in the selection, and he got an invitation, which would inevitably make some people unhappy.

However, Wang Zhen told himself yesterday that this news was already difficult to control.

After weighing the pros and cons, Jiang Zhe decided to tell Professor Qin
“I received an invitation to the Biennale.”

Professor Qin was holding a cup of water and was about to drink it. Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Jiang Zhe.

"What do you mean? When?"

Jiang Zhe explained the situation again.

Professor Qin still couldn't believe it. "What you said is true. Where is the invitation?" Seeing that it was difficult for Professor Qin to remain calm, Jiang Zhe was convinced. His method of controlling the news was right. "The invitation is at home. My parents liked it as soon as they saw it. Let them look at it for a few more days. Wang Zhen's gallery also received an invitation and is preparing to invite him to participate in some activities."

"Oh, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Professor Qin put down the cup and laughed. "I see, I see, that's more like you. Are you sure it's an invitational exhibition for the Biennale? Who recommended it to you?"

“Galleries and Christie’s.”

"Okay, okay. I didn't expect you to find such a way." Professor Qin had never participated in the Biennale. He only knew about some of the activities but had not experienced them in person. So he asked Jiang Zhe how to participate, even asking about every step.

Jiang Zhe recounted some of the steps he had heard. He had not seen the specific operations with his own eyes, so he could only tell the truth.

Listening to Jiang Zhe's description, Professor Qin was envious and a little confused. Seeing this student in his twenties doing things that many painters could not do, it was hard to guess what he would be able to achieve in the future.

His mind was full of thoughts, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. The office fell silent.

Jiang Zhe waited patiently.

After Professor Qin calmed down a little, he thought of some specific things.

"When are you going to attend the event? Do you need to ask for leave?"

Jiang Zhe said: "I have discussed it with Wang Zhen. She will go to Venice first. The most important thing is to have her works exhibited there.

I plan to go to Venice after the exams to attend some events?"

After hearing this, Professor Qin was immediately relieved.

Jiang Zhe considered things at school first before going to Venice. He also kept control of the news and did not tell everyone about the happy events like other people did.

Professor Qin admired this calm character very much.

“I haven’t participated in a biennial. You should consult experienced people as much as possible and listen to their opinions.

It’s the end of the semester and there are a lot of things to do at school. If you need to ask for leave, just go to Teacher Hu. Just don’t ask for too much leave. You’ve earned honor for the school, and the school will take care of you.”

Jiang Zhe said: "Teacher, don't worry, I won't delay my studies at school."

After finishing the business, Teacher Qin instructed: "Remember to bring the invitation letter and take a photo as a souvenir. I have never participated in the Biennale, and my former students have never participated either. You are the first."

He smiled happily.

The two chatted for a while, and Jiang Zhe said, "Teacher, if there is nothing else, I will go back first, and you can take a nap."

Professor Qin said, "Go back, but after hearing your good news, I can't rest for a while."

Jiang Zhe said: "Can I ask you for a favor?"

"Do you want me to keep the news secret?"

"Or do you understand me?"

"I'll try my best."

……

News of the auction trickled out on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, Jiang Zhe received a call from Gu Qian.

Gu Qian invited him to attend an event held by the Binhai Artists Association on the weekend.

She knew Jiang Zhe's habits and rarely caused trouble for him.

“Is it appropriate for me to go to this event?”

Gu Qian knew that Jiang Zhe’s question should be interpreted as whether it was necessary for me to go.

"Teacher Jiang, I will be the one organizing the event. If you go, you can help me to support the occasion."
