Soul Painter

Gao Fan's first model.

　　 is a tramp.

　　 This is a jump in the line, or in other words, he is not in the line.

　　 Citizens over there are queuing, and government workers are counting the number of people and checking their names.

Although US$00 is not much, it is still a considerable income for most Bstn people, so this kind of fraud is very likely to happen. For this reason, the city government has not only made a unified personnel arrangement plan, It will also verify the driver’s license or social security number to determine whether the invitee is in person.

　　 The task of painting portraits for one hundred thousand Bstn families can be said to be a national project. Without the assistance of the city government, it would never be completed.

　　 While the city officials were regulating the team and counting names, Gao Fan saw this dirty tramp approach him. Lawrence wanted to stop him, but Gao Fan stopped him.

　　 "ayI?" The tramp asked, pointing to the drawing board in Gao Fan's hand.

　　 He knew that this was a painter who was painting a Bstn person, but he did not know whether he belonged to the Bstn person category defined by the painter.

　　 "Sure~" Gao Fan understood what he meant and pointed to the chair in front of him, "Please sit down."

　　 The tramp sat down slightly awkwardly, and in less than two minutes, Gao Fan signaled that he was finished.

So fast? The tramp walked behind Gao Fan curiously. He saw a large number of slightly scribbled lines on the drawing board, smearing out a somewhat dim alley. The person in the painting, that is, his face, occupies most of the close-up view of the portrait, the face Hanging downwards, a little sad, and seeming helpless in this dim light, one after another flashes of light shone from the window on one side of the wall and reflected on the drawing paper, one after another blank.

The darkness on his face was in sharp contrast with the warm light from the window shining on the ground... Oh my God, he couldn’t imagine how this painter used lines to paint such a precise picture in just two minutes. The picture seemed to fit the day he started wandering and the moment he left home, as if it was a painter's magical brush that took this scene out of his heart.

　　 "Your reward." Gao Fan took a hundred dollars from Lawrence and stuffed it into the homeless man's hand, "Your home is not in Bstn, maybe your family is waiting for you."

　　 What else does the tramp want to say.

　　At this time, government officials have begun to guide the flow of people, walking towards Gao Fan and Anna, the tramp was squeezed away, and Gao Fan and Anna both ushered in their first objects of depiction.

The entire Municipal Square, like a rally, was divided into two groups of hundreds of Bstn citizens in a line. Every time they sat down and stood up again, the time interval would not exceed 5 minutes, and a vivid picture The prime portrayal is complete. Starting from this day in April, nearly four hundred people will become models of Gao Fan and Anna every day.

In other words, they will live in the hall of inspiration from 400 to 2,000 people—because they are based on a family unit, painting a portrait of one person will most likely mean obtaining the facial features of six people, and this process will Lasting for eight to nine months, in the past, a completed Bstn will be generated in the Hall of Inspiration.

　　 The first day of work ended smoothly.

　　 It took ten hours from eight in the morning to six in the evening.

　　 After that, Gao Fan and Anna have time to go with Lawrence to the bar next to the city hall for a beer.

　　 Here they met many Bstn citizens who exchanged $00 for sour beer.

　　 They all know him and her.

　　 In the next nine months, almost everyone in this city will know him and her, because the lives of 600,000 people will be woven into a great painting that represents the spirit of this city.

　　 "To our great painter~" Someone held up a beer glass.

　　 a hundred responses.

　　Everyone chanted: "Respect GA!"

　　 Gao Fan smiled, and then, he drank a lot of alcohol, but he was not drunk, and soon he would find that it was a curse, a backlash using the ‘Mystery of Cat’.

This backlash keeps him awake under any circumstances. This is not a good thing. For example, when certain diseases penetrate deep into the bone marrow, humans will faint to protect themselves, while Gao Fan loses this ability temporarily or permanently. .

　　 This is a perfect match with the pain caused by the moose cat.

　　 The second day, the third day... the first week, the second week... the first month.

When the time came to mid-May, this "painting performance art" lasted for a month, which attracted a wider range of attention. The three major radio and television stations of the beautiful country carried out news reports on this. The authoritative news column "NightlyNes" even It took three minutes to introduce the life of the oriental painter and his ongoing creations.

"...Most people think this is just a joke, but a joke that has been open for a month will also turn into an amazing feat. According to GA’s agent, this creation will last for nine months, oh my god, It only takes so long for me to give birth to a child!" TBrka, who has been an NB anchor for 20 years, exclaimed to the audience.

　　 On social platforms, TBrka firmly believes that this is a ‘hype’ and he is willing to use bikinis as a bet.

　　 Now, on social platforms, a lot of discussions about "Bostonian" are also continuing to ferment. Everyone starts to discuss whether this painting can be completed, and only a very small number of people think it can be completed. After all, there has never been such a precedent in the world.

Thanks to this hot discussion, the Gardner Museum's "Mask" solo exhibition ushered in the last wave of visits. From January to May, the exhibition, which lasted for four months, is finally coming to an end, first of all. The lease agreement of the buyer of the painting can no longer be renewed, followed by the acquisition agreement with the New York Museum, which has also reached the delivery period.

　　 Mrs. Gardner reluctantly left behind "Greed~www.readwn.com~ Seeing the other fifteen paintings, they were packaged and taken away and sent to a foreign country.

　　 "I will never see such a miracle again." Mrs. Gardner was rather sentimental.

　　 So Lawrence recommended to her the small church in Provence, which contains another masterpiece that Gao Fan completed with the same technique, and even said that it should be even better.

　　Mrs. Gardner decided to go to Provence to find a miracle.

　　 But Gao Fan's creation is still going on.

A wider range of news dissemination has allowed the Bstn government to mobilize citizens to participate in the creation and become a Gaofan model. Some people may not care about $00, but he does not want to miss being part of the miracle. The government began to publish a larger list, allowing everyone to be arranged in order, so as to ensure that every citizen invited has sufficient time to prepare.

　　 So some doubts were born.

　　 There are some names and families that have not been recorded on the list, which has caused controversy.

"I have lived here for twenty-six years, am I not from Bstn?" Every day protesters appear in the city hall square. For this reason, Gao Fan had to discuss with Roda and set up an emergency handling center. That is, Lawrence, who is responsible for paying these extra rewards.

　　 Gao Fan looked at the tramp sitting in front of him, and couldn't help laughing: "How many times is this?"

　　 The hobo looked blankly: "What are you talking about"

　　 "Go, don't bother me." Gao Fan took out $00 and threw it into the homeless man's hand.

　　 It seems that many people regard this place as an opportunity to make a fortune.
