Chapter 241 Let’s go somewhere with warm weather

"Hello, it's like this. I'm causing trouble."

Li Shi typed quickly and replied.

After answering, considering that Ailan was still sleeping, he turned his phone to vibrate again.

Aya, who was holding her chin with her hand in front of her, was carefully admiring the painting. At first glance, her attention was attracted by the image of her sister in the painting.

There is no way, even for girls, not wearing clothes is more "eye-catching" than wearing clothes.

Affected by preconceptions, Aya looked at the two girls lying side by side in the painting. They occupied the same space, but she felt that the "sister" in this painting was more eye-catching than herself.

"This kind of painting without clothes is really eye-catching."

Aya blinked and muttered to herself.

She has always loved beauty, and she had the urge to give it a try.

Li Shi had already stood up and walked to the chair in front of the coffee table on the balcony. The curator Cheng Feng sent another message: "No trouble, but I need your basic information to send the invitation letter."

He edited it with both hands and sent in basic information such as his name, gender, contact information and contact address.

"Okay, I will send you an invitation letter within five days, and you are welcome to participate. By the way, Miwei said that you are a freelance painter. She likes your works very much. I wonder if I would be honored to appreciate them too.

What? (smiley face)"

Li Shi thought for a moment and replied: "Okay, please give me your email address."

When the other party sent the email, he selected two pictures of the paintings from the photo album on his mobile phone and sent the original pictures.

A figure, a landscape.

The character is still the one in which Aiya is making vibrato, and the scenery is his sketch at Zixia Cave in Langshan Mountain.

These two works were the two best works he could show to others before he was promoted to (Proficient+).

Cheng Feng is 32 years old and graduated from the Department of Literature of Zhejiang University. She left the gallery where she worked two years ago and uses her family's business and art background to become an independent curator.

Whether abroad or at home, there are too many "curators" selling themselves off these days. Cheng Feng is relatively professional in this industry. She has certain artistic accomplishments and understands art history.

At first, Cheng Feng just added an invitation letter for Mi Wei's sake. The so-called "free painter" was nothing more than a polite word. In fact, she often complained in private that those so-called painters in society were nine out of ten.

Not worthy of its name.

Today's society is like this. Cats and dogs can be called "teachers", and dogs and cats can also be called "artists".

The reason why she wanted to take a look at Li Shi's paintings was mainly to understand the general level of each guest after the event. She did not have any expectations.

But when she saw the painting Li Shi sent her, she was a little surprised!

Zoom in and look again and again at the details in both paintings.

Five or six minutes later.

"This Li Shi's basic skills are rare to see."

As a professional, Cheng Feng knows all too well about today's so-called young artists - most of them love "innovation" too much.

Often, before the foundation is laid, they start to be new and different. Everyone calls for innovation and feels that they are different.

"And his style...is so beautiful."

Staring at the female portrait, Cheng Feng didn't know how to describe the style of Li Shi's work. All in all, her first impression was that it was "good-looking".

The more she looked at it, the more surprised she became.

I originally thought it was a favor, but I didn't expect such an unexpected gain!

…

Li Shi sent photos of his work and received no feedback in a short period of time, but he didn't care.

Over there, Aiya had already gotten up from the bed, put on her coat and walked over to her. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Li Shi's cell phone vibrating on the coffee table.

The vibration of the mobile phone hit the smooth coffee table surface, making a lot of noise.

Li Shi, who was pouring himself another cup of tea, quickly picked it up and saw that it was assistant Zhang Huijing. He said to Aiya: "I'm going out to take a call."

Walk out the door with your phone in hand, go to the corridor, and connect it.

Zhang Huijing called mainly to report on the progress of the renovation of the activity base and the renovation of the old house.

While listening to her report, Li Shi walked to the lounge in the public area downstairs, and finally sat down on an empty seat next to the river, admiring the river view outside the railing and answering the phone.

"Well, it's not bad, but the progress of the renovation of my hometown should be accelerated as much as possible, so that we can move in before the end of the year."

"Okay." Zhang Huijing finished reporting her main work, and then mentioned the work that Li Shi had temporarily assigned to her yesterday, "Boss, for the mannequins you asked me to find, I also contacted the agents according to your standards.

people, and then filtered five, and the information has been sent to your work email."

When it comes to this matter, Zhang Huijing feels somewhat unnatural.

Li Shi originally planned to find the mannequin himself, but he had to play outside, sketch, read, and chat with his sisters. He felt that he was really busy enough, so he decided to

This job was handed over to Zhang Huijing, and she was asked to do the preliminary contact work and preliminary screening for herself.

Li Shi originally wanted to say no, but considering that this was the result of the assistant's hard work, the words came to his lips and turned into: "Well, thank you for your hard work."

After hanging up the phone, he logged into his email and took a look.

The five models, first of all, have quite dignified facial features, and their bodies are of different heights, some are slim and some are plump.

I have to say that my little assistant is really getting better now. He can complete the tasks assigned very well every time. The key is that he is very intelligent. After working with him for so long, he already understands himself very well.

Such an assistant is very comfortable to use.

He was thinking that the year-end red envelope at the end of the year should be bigger, so as to reward her.

"I have been promoted to (Proficient+), and with Ai Lan, I don't need to find another model for life sketching, at least for the time being. If I finally decide to choose painting as a study project to become a master, we will talk about it then."

Li Shi glanced at the information of the five models again, logged out of the mailbox, and was just about to get up and go back to the room upstairs. Xiao Jiang, the B&B housekeeper who had been observing from a distance, saw that he had finished answering the phone and walked over quickly.

He stopped Li Shi and came close to him. He looked around first to make sure there was no one around, and then reminded him in a low voice: "Mr. Li, um, I want to remind you in a friendly way that rooms on stilts like ours have poor sound insulation."

It's not particularly good. If there is too much noise in the house, it may be heard outside, even in the next room, so... you understand?"

Li Shi was stunned when he heard this, and immediately knew what he meant.

I immediately thought of the jade merchant Wei Ming I met in Dali.

His next reaction was: Check out when Ailan wakes up, and find a place with good soundproofing tonight.

It was planned to be deeply cultivated. With Li Shi's execution ability, it was naturally impossible for him to stop executing the plan because of such a small problem.

When he went upstairs, Li Shi took out his mobile phone and searched for a new hotel on the app.

The tourism industry in Fenghuang Ancient City is extremely developed, and there are countless hotels and B&Bs of various types. After entering the software, he directly sorted by price "from high to low", and then selected B&B hotels with good reviews and high scores to view them one by one.

I quickly selected a new B&B.

This B&B is located in the lower reaches of Tongjiang River, one kilometer away from here, and is also close to the river. Looking at the pictures, the rooms and river views are good, and netizens who have stayed here have commented that this hotel is very quiet at night.

The key point is that the main body of this hotel is made of reinforced concrete, not a stilt building, so the sound insulation effect must be very good.

"Well, we'll find out if we try it tonight."

He had just leaned on the railing on the second floor and booked a room for tonight when Cheng Feng sent a message.

Cheng Feng: "Teacher Li, I like your paintings so much. I have been admiring them for a long time and I forgot to reply to your message!"

Li Shi smiled and thought she was just saying polite words, and typed back: "Thank you."

Not wanting to, the other party quickly replied with two more messages:

"After this event, we will also have a small internal exhibition. We will select some works from the young painters who participated in the event and put them on display for exchange. I wonder if you are interested."

"Anyway, I personally would like to invite you for a painting."

Li Shi was stunned.

Invite me to exhibit paintings?

Although she said it was just a small exhibition part of the event, the nature of inviting paintings is completely different. It seems that she was not lying and she really liked her paintings?

Or do you see that you have potential?

Li Shi thought quickly and decided that he just wanted to communicate more with other painters. This was undoubtedly a good opportunity. He agreed and said, "Okay, this is my honor."

Cheng Feng, who was far away in Hangzhou, was very happy when Li Shi agreed. He quickly typed: "Then it's settled. I prefer that portrait sketch, or you can choose another painting. But we have to do it together."

It will be decided before the 20th of the month, and we will make specific arrangements based on the content, style and size of the painting."

It's January 11th, and there are still nine days until the 20th.

Considering that this is the first official exhibition of my paintings, even if it is just a small event, I should present the best work that I can currently produce.

It is unrealistic to not seek to be a blockbuster, but it must not be embarrassing or leave any regrets.

The previous painting was painted before I had a breakthrough, so it was almost meaningless after all.

He thought for a moment and then replied: "Then I'll think about it again and give you a definite answer before the 20th, okay?"

Seeing Li Shi's message, Cheng Feng smiled.

Most artists are "name-conscious" and will be very cautious when revealing their works to the outside world, often only showing the best works. Some more extreme artists will even destroy themselves directly after completing their creations.

If there is any work that you are not satisfied with at all, only the works that you are satisfied with should be allowed to exist.

She has dealt with this kind of people a lot, so she naturally understands their psychology.

She immediately replied: "Of course there is no problem. The main theme of our event is communication, so there are no restrictions on works of any theme. It is up to the young painters to decide what paintings to display."

When Li Shi saw her reply, he pursed his lips and smiled unconsciously.

The implication behind Cheng Feng's words is that he is also a young painter?

After finishing the chat, Li Shi stood in the corridor and went back to the room in no hurry.

"According to the classification of my study panel, I have just touched the threshold of proficiency level. I haven't broken through yet, and I can't bear the word "painter" at all. But for a moment, I felt quite arrogant."

A slightly self-deprecating smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth: Sure enough, I am still a vulgar vulgar person, well, but being a vulgar person is good, as long as I can stay awake in my studies.

Li Shi suddenly realized something.

"The learning panel's rating of paintings is based on a comprehensive view of ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, and is based on the painting history of the entire human civilization on earth as a reference for rating, so the requirements are really high."

"And in today's real world where cats and dogs can be called painters and calligraphers, perhaps even professionals like Cheng Feng have had their standards of evaluation invisibly affected and declined."

"So, in today's society, many industries are collectively failing, for example...domestic entertainment?"

Li Shi thought of the recent news on Weibo and curled his lips.

He turned around and came to the door of the room. He didn't knock on the door, but followed Aiya's example and sent her a WeChat message.

After a while, the door opened, but it was not Aya who opened the door, but Ailan who had woken up from sleep.

At this moment, she was already dressed.

Clothes are amazing things.

When she wasn't wearing it, she was so proactive and even a little unrestrained, but once she put it back on and faced Li Shi, her first expression was one of shyness.

Li Shi looked at the shy and peach-faced girl, and thought to himself, if he could produce a work for the exhibition within nine days, he would have to rely on the person in front of him.

His mind was like lightning, and he was thinking quickly about how to draw the most beautiful side of the girl in front of him.

"Brother Shi, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Li Shi was in a daze for a moment, Ai Lan asked.

After overcoming a little bit of shyness, the in-depth communication last night had an effect. She naturally took Li Shi's arm, pulled him in a little, and closed the door.

Li Shi came back to his senses, and the first person he looked at was Aiya, who was sitting by the bed and looking over.

He smiled and said, "Suddenly I have something I want to discuss with you."

In just a few seconds, he had the inspiration to create the best work for the exhibition in nine days.

"What's wrong? What's going on?"

Aya, who was more lively, asked first.

"No, it should be two things. The first thing is that I rebooked the accommodation. We will check out of the room later and then go out for fun." Li Shi mentioned the hotel change in advance, and his excuse was this

The B&B was too noisy, which would affect his rest at night, so he found a relatively quiet place in the lower reaches of the Tongjiang River.

The two sisters have no problem with this.

Li Shi went on to talk about the second thing: "Also, after we visited Fenghuang Ancient City, we will not go to Zhangjiajie. How about finding a place with warm weather for our next stop?"

As soon as he said these words, both sisters were stunned.

"why?"

I feel like my head is going to explode. I won’t be a sheep again, right? Oh, I’ll place a single test strip and test it later.
