My Life Simulator

After the first seal was carved, Lu Li practiced another item.

In addition to calligraphy, Chinese painting, sketching and oil painting, there is another "engraving".

Engraving is just a type of "sculpture", and engraving is just a type of sculpture. Lu Li still has a lot to learn.

But... there are priorities. At present, the main task of this period is to deal with the provincial painting and calligraphy competition and the national painting and calligraphy competition, as well as the art examination of the college entrance examination.

In terms of carving, Lu Li only practiced "engraving".

There is a benefit to this kind of stone. After the engraving is finished, it is smoothed and the engraving can be continued.

In terms of calligraphy, Lu Li's regular script has already entered the hall, and he can practice other fonts.

Regular script, official script, running script, cursive script, seal script, as well as "Yanshu" created by the famous contemporary calligrapher Ma Yongan are all calligraphy fonts that must be mastered.

And... In addition to brush calligraphy, hard brush calligraphy also requires practice.

It seems that there are many items that need to be practiced, but in fact it is not difficult to practice.

Regular script is the foundation of all calligraphy. After practicing regular script, it is easier to practice other calligraphy fonts.

In traditional Chinese painting, there are many things to practice.

In addition to "shape", traditional Chinese painting also pays attention to a "god". With both form and spirit, it is a good work.

Lu Li also has his own understanding of this "God". In the plot of the best actor, when Lu Li played various roles, he had already deeply realized what a "god" is.

The so-called "God" is to express the main characteristics and characteristics of a certain thing with artistic methods, to highlight this characteristic, to highlight this characteristic.

To put it bluntly, it is to have characteristics, and it cannot be ordinary and stereotyped.

In the process of improving painting skills, it is necessary to upgrade from "shape-like" to "spirit-like", and finally achieve "both form and spirit".

There is a well-known saying: A mountain is a mountain, a mountain is not a mountain, and a mountain is still a mountain. Finished the whole process.

After the city's painting and calligraphy competition ended, Lu Li's life returned to normal.

Diligence rewards Lu Li with every practice, and every practice makes progress. Therefore, Lu Li's daily practice volume has increased significantly, and the amount of paper used has also increased significantly.

All kinds of consumables were consumed rapidly, and the 5,000 yuan Lu Li earned from translating materials for others had already been used up.

In order not to increase the burden on his parents, Lu Li had to resume his old business and translate materials for others online.

Take a task once a week, ranging from thousands to hundreds. This income is enough to maintain Lu Li's consumption.

In December, we will participate in the provincial middle school students' painting and calligraphy competition.

This provincial middle school student painting and calligraphy competition has some restrictions on the registration conditions. Only the intermediate level certificate of calligraphy and painting skills is required to be eligible to register.

This rule is normal. If there is no such restriction, the number of applicants will be too large, and the organizing committee will not be able to arrange it.

So... Lu Li has to take a calligraphy and painting grade test.

Log in to the Xichuan Provincial Education Examination Institute and search for the recent calligraphy and painting grade examinations. Lu Li found the registration page.

The last exam was in November.

Lu Li registered online and completed the procedure.

The calligraphy and painting grade examination is divided into elementary, intermediate and advanced, with three grades and ten grades.

Because Lu Li won the first prize in the city's painting and calligraphy competition, he can directly apply for the advanced level. Lu Li directly reported a tenth grade.

This kind of skill level of calligraphy and painting belongs to the "national nature", even if the test is tenth, it still belongs to the "amateur" level.

The location of the exam is still the Yucheng Youth Palace.

On the day of the exam, Lu Li took a leave of absence and came to the Yucheng Youth Palace to take the grade exam.

The examination process does not need to be described in detail. Write a few words, draw a few pictures, even if the test is over.

There are not many people who take this level test. There are a few people who take the calligraphy test together with Lu Li, and only Lu Li is left to take the painting test.

One week after the test, Lu Li received the calligraphy and painting grade certificate issued by the Chinese Painting and Calligraphy Grade Examination Committee.

grade ten!

Opened the certificate and glanced at it, Lu Li smiled and shook his head, the tenth level is still a scumbag.

Obtaining this certificate may be equivalent to the "nine-year compulsory education" graduation certificate in the art world, right?

Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye it was December.

The 10th of this month is the start day of the provincial middle school student painting and calligraphy competition.

With ten days left before the competition, Mr. Xue Song collected the certificates and materials of the contestants and signed them up for everyone.

In the art class of Yucheng No. 1 Middle School, not many people signed up for the provincial competition.

Only Lu Li and a few classmates who won the second prize in the city competition signed up, and no one else signed up.

This is also normal. You can't win the city competition, but you still want to win the provincial competition?

The day before the competition, Mr. Liu Juan led the team and led Lu Li, Gao Juan, Jiang Wenwen and Du Yan, who had won the second prize in the city competition, four students and one teacher to the provincial capital.

Gao Juan and Jiang Wenwen are girls, and Du Yan is a boy. They are both high school seniors like Lu Li.

This provincial competition is still very important to them. Once you can win the prize in the provincial competition, you can add points for the college entrance examination. If you can get the first prize, it will be easier to apply for the art school in the province.

For Lu Li, he didn't care about the extra points in the college entrance examination, nor did he think about applying for the art school in the province. This competition...is an opportunity to have a go.

It has been more than three months since I entered this drama.

After more than three months of practice, Lu Li felt that his current calligraphy and painting skills were considered top-notch at the level of a high school student.

"Lu Li, do you have the confidence to win this provincial competition?"

Sitting in the car, Gao Juan asked Lu Li with a smile.

"Confidence is something..."

Lu Li grinned, "Confidence is a must! I don't have too high expectations, I just need to win a few first prizes!"

"cut!"

The crowd rolled their eyes.

"Lu Li, you are a little floating!"

Teacher Liu Juan smiled and shook her head, "It's good to have confidence, but don't be too careless."

"Teacher rest assured!"

Lu Li smiled and said, "My mentality is very stable. I don't float or sink, I'm very calm."

"Can you calm down?"

Du Yan, the boy sitting opposite, continued, "Your academic performance is so good. Even if you don't do well in the art exam, you can still get into a key university."

"This..."

Lu Li pouted, "What you said is the truth, I can't refute it."

"I'm going! Why do I want to hit someone!"

Du Yan's face was full of depression.

Gao Juan and Jiang Wenwen were speechless for a while.

Teacher Liu Juan smiled and shook her head.

All the way to the provincial capital, Teacher Liu Juan took Lu Li and the four to find a hotel near the Provincial Cultural and Sports Center.

Tomorrow's game will be held at the Cultural and Sports Center.

After checking into the hotel, Ms. Liu Juan took everyone to the Cultural and Sports Center to get acquainted with the examination room before returning to the hotel to rest.

The hotel room was opened at his own expense, and Lu Li didn't want to live with other people, so he booked a room alone.

"Lu Li, I brought a lot of oranges. If I can't eat them all by myself, they will spoil. I'll share some with you."

When Lu Li entered the room, Gao Juan handed Lu Li a bag of oranges.

"Uh...thank you!"

The pure friendship between classmates, Lu Li is not easy to refuse, and reaches out to take the orange that Gao Juan handed over.

Actually...I prefer pears!

"I still have bananas here."

Jiang Wenwen next to him took another bunch of bananas and handed them to Lu Li.

Uh? banana?

Lu Li smiled and reached out to take it, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, they're all classmates!"

Jiang Wenwen and Gao Juan looked at each other and seemed to sense the murderous aura in each other's eyes.

Du Yan, who was next to him, saw this scene, and the corner of his mouth twitched a few times. Am I not a classmate? Why not give it to me?

Teacher Liu Juan smiled and shook her head. Isn't that obvious? You are ugly!

...

After eating, Lu Li rested in his room and changed into his sportswear to go out.

Since the championship story, Lu Li has had the habit of exercising. Even in this new plot, Lu Li was used to it.

After walking out of the hotel door, Lu Li planned to go to the nearby leisure square for activities.

When passing by the pavilion outside the hotel, I saw two students sitting in the pavilion.

"Zhang Sheng, in this painting and calligraphy competition, the first prize of calligraphy is given to you."

A boy with slightly longer hair and a little artistic temperament said to a tall and thin boy opposite: "I only reported Chinese painting, not calligraphy."

"Cut! I want you to let me go?"

The tall and thin boy was full of disdain, "It's like you've beaten me. This time I didn't apply for Chinese painting, only calligraphy. We don't need to compete internally, it's the best strategy to join forces to share the awards."

"yes!"

The long-haired man looked like "Dugu seeks defeat", "If you and I join forces, no one else will have anything to do. Heroes in the world, only make Jun and Cao Er! When the national competition is over, we will compete again. "

Puff!

Lu Li couldn't help laughing out loud.

Although it is inevitable that a teenage boy is a bit of a middle schooler, but... this is a bit embarrassing to say!

"Um?"

Hearing Lu Li's laughter, the two people in the pavilion looked over together.

"You were laughing just now?"

The two of them looked at Lu Li with a bit of a bad look.

"Oh, I read a connotation joke and couldn't hold back for a while."

Lu Li casually said, "Excuse me! Farewell!"

Intentional jokes?

The two in the gazebo looked at each other and frowned slightly. I always feel that this connotation joke is not a good word.

"You also came to participate in the painting and calligraphy competition?"

The long-haired man was still a little reluctant, and asked another question.

"No! No! I'm here to make soy sauce!"

Lu Li waved his hand, "Don't disturb your business exchanges, farewell!"

Play soy sauce we know. What does business talk mean?

The two people in the pavilion frowned and ignored Lu Li.

...

At 9:00 a.m. the next day, the provincial middle school students' painting and calligraphy competition officially opened.

Teacher Liu Juan brought Lu Li and others to the arena of the Cultural and Sports Center. Lu Li and others went to the examination room to participate in the examination according to the items they applied for.

The entire competition is divided into two days.

The first day of calligraphy and Chinese painting. Drawing and painting the next day.

When Lu Li walked into the calligraphy examination room, he unexpectedly met the tall and thin boy who "joined hands to share the prize".

"Huh? You really are also a participating student."

The tall and thin boy looked at Lu Li with a bit of disdain, "You made a wrong choice to sign up for the calligraphy competition. With me here, you wouldn't have a chance."

"Oh!"

Lu Li smiled, "It's alright! I have applied for all four competitions. The bigger the net, the more chances."

"Uh……"

The tall and thin man frowned, so you are just a scumbag who came to try his luck? Talking to you degrades my identity! Too lazy to deal with you!

Lu Li was also happy to be quiet.

After a while, the invigilator entered the room, distributed paper, and announced the exam questions.

Different from the Yucheng competition, this provincial competition has more content. Calligraphy should be written in two or more fonts, and three to four pieces of calligraphy should be written.

Lu Li chose one regular script, one official script and one running script.

Still that trick. Lu Li took out the inkstone and started grinding the ink. Calm, unhurried, and graceful.

"Pretend!"

The tall and thin man next to him snorted disdainfully when he saw Lu Li Momo's posture, but he thought to himself: This guy is not good enough, but he can do it!

Such a calm and graceful posture is a waste of time on him. Only a genius like me can complement each other.

Lu Li didn't know that someone was going to "plagiarize" his style.

While grinding ink, while nourishing energy. After he had prepared the draft in his mind and his momentum had reached its peak, Lu Li spread out the rice paper and started writing.

On a regular script banner, Lu Li wrote "Indifferent to clear ambition, quiet to far."

This word is written very implicitly, like a cold lake in the abyss, calm and deep.

In the official script, what Lu Li wrote is "The terrain is Kun, the gentleman carries things with great virtue!"

This word is thick and heavy, vast and majestic, reflecting the meaning of the earth.

In the last running script, Lu Li wrote, "Flying down 3,000 feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way is falling into the sky for nine days."

The running script is elegant, but it also carries the air of flying straight down, rushing down thousands of miles.

After writing the three characters, Lu Li put his seal on it, immediately packed up his things, and raised his hand to hand in the scroll.

The tall and thin man next to him sneered disdainfully when he saw this scene. Every word in calligraphy must be carefully considered. The three words were written so quickly? Truly a piece of shit.

The calligraphy competition is over, and the afternoon is Chinese painting.

The Chinese painting competition also had more content than the Yucheng city competition, requiring two paintings. Choose from two painting styles including ink wash, heavy light, light crimson, fine brushwork, freehand brushwork, and line drawing.

The subject matter is optional, it can be any one of landscape, figures, flowers and birds, etc.

Lu Li painted an ink landscape and a meticulous figure.

The ink landscape painting is still the hometown of Bifengxia, meticulous characters... Lu Li painted the head teacher Lao Xu.

The next day's sketch, the provincial competition played a new trick, the examination room was like a movie set, and there was a Republic of China style.

A group of beautiful models wearing cheongsams and graceful postures posing in the room.

Are you not afraid that these beauties will distract the candidates?

Lu Li smiled, picked up the pen and drew this scene of the Republic of China.

In the oil painting in the afternoon, the patterns are fresher. The examination room was moved outside, and the invigilator pointed to a road in the cultural and sports center with French plane trees planted on both sides, and the word "painted"!

Aren't you afraid that students will catch a cold?

Lu Li tightened the down jacket on his body, heaved a sigh of relief, and moved his fingers... Let's go!

After two days of competition, we are waiting for the results!
