The director is on camera? It turns out he's here to steal the painting
[Are they really this ""extravagant""? Why does it look so fake? This must be for the show!]
The Netizen who said this has the username "Mysterious Confidence".
As soon as he said that, he was quickly met with all sorts of ridicule.
[As the name suggests, don't look at this painting with your shallow perspective. I suggest you learn to paint for a few years before commenting!]
[It's ridiculous. Why are there always people in this world using unprofessional perspectives to evaluate others' professions?]
[If this is for the show, it would only be more ""extravagant"" than this.]
Unexpectedly, this person didn't shut up because of this; instead, he jumped out again.
Mysterious Confidence: "Am I wrong? A provincial calligraphy and painting association claiming that a person in his early twenties can be his Teacher, isn't that a joke?"
[Joke my ass. Haven't you heard of 'the capable are Teachers'?]
[Go ask among the 4 million people in the live stream how many have studied painting, and then see who dares to say they can paint the shrimp just now!]
[...]
The live stream of this show has always been calm. After all, it's just ordinary rural life, and everyone is just looking for peaceful moments within it.
It's definitely the first time there's been an argument like today.
Some people actually also felt it was too ""extravagant"", with too much of a performance feel.
While others felt these people were short-sighted.
Fortunately, someone finally stepped forward:
"Stop arguing. This isn't for the show; it's because this young man's painting is too stunning.
I am Tan Xianglin, a member of the Great Xia Country Calligraphy and Painting Association. In terms of painting shrimp, I am also inferior to this young man!"
These words had a decisive effect!
Even a member of the national-level Calligraphy and Painting Association admitted his shrimp painting couldn't compare to Nan Ye's.
What else was there for others to say then?
Saying more would only show how ignorant they were.
At the same time, this person's words shocked the Netizens even more.
If just now was an 8.0 magnitude earthquake, then now it was definitely a 12.0 magnitude one.
[Holy crap, is this Leap? Even Leap isn't this outrageous!]
[The delivery Xiao Ge has once again refreshed my worldview. Why, after the same nine years of compulsory education, can he be so outstanding?]
[Compared to him, I realize I'm simply a waste!]
[With such a talented delivery Xiao Ge becoming a star, I doubt anyone will be jealous anymore, right?]
Yes, from this moment on, everyone was convinced.
If someone without strength or background suddenly became popular, they would likely be criticized by countless people, just like that "Waiya Waiya Waiya" Teacher.
That's all an illness caused by jealousy, unable to stand seeing others do well.
But Nan Ye is different; he uses absolute strength.
Singing, not weaker than the Little Heavenly Queen.
Composing, even professors praised him heavily.
Slaughtering cattle, a butcher with 25 years of experience admitted inferiority.
Painting, directly crushing more than half of the art world.
How can you spray him?
Where can you spray from?
Is jealousy useful?
If he doesn't become popular, who will!
The number of viewers in the live stream rapidly increased, quickly approaching 4.7 million people, which was very ""extravagant""...
...
It was the first time the Village Chief had seen Ding Shijun so excited.
"Old Ding, this is live. Since you think this painting is good, why don't you talk about what makes it good!"
Upon hearing this, Ding Shijun didn't refuse: "Then I'll talk about my personal opinion."
Just as he was about to speak, Nan Ye suddenly said: "Excuse me, may I first ask where the restroom is?"
"Oh, it's right behind this wall!" The Village Chief quickly pointed the way for Nan Ye.
Nan Ye used the fastest speed in his life, rushed into the restroom, muttering:
"Damn it, this side effect is toxic!"
"What the hell is urinary urgency?"
"Can it get any more ridiculous?"
Before he could walk two steps out of the restroom, he ran back again.
"Shit, this kind of thing is endless!"
"No way, if the side effects aren't removed in the future, I definitely won't paint casually anymore."
If the restroom was a bit further away, wouldn't he collapse?
Seeing that Nan Ye hadn't returned, Ding Shijun had to temporarily hold up the live stream.
"Why do I say this painting is good?"
"Ink wash painting emphasizes brushwork. Look everyone, Nan Ye skillfully uses ink tones and brush strokes to express the structure and texture of the shrimp, and depicts the shrimp whiskers and long pincers with brushwork rich in the taste of metal and stone.
Making the purely ink-colored structure also rich in meaning. From this, you can see that Nan Ye possesses extremely exquisite technique.
I'm afraid even people who have been immersed in ink wash painting for decades would be amazed."
Speaking of this, Ding Shijun indeed heavily slapped the table, narrating like a storyteller.
The audience in the live stream also listened with great interest, and not many people posted comments.
"Secondly, ink wash painting emphasizes appropriate variations in ink density. Look at the shrimp claws and head; although they are done with thick ink, there is no sense of heavy stiffness.
Looking at the shrimp body and antennae, although done with light ink, there is no sense of restlessness.
This is simply a model for painting shrimp!"
Speaking of this, everyone felt a bit unclear but impressed. For non-professionals, the sense of stiffness, the sense of restlessness, were difficult to understand.
But they understood the word "model".
This indicates that this shrimp holds a very high position in the art world.
This kind of statement seemed a bit ""extravagant"" to everyone, but strangely, Tan Xianglin didn't come out to refute it; he even agreed with Ding Shijun's statement.
This was quite unbelievable!
"Thirdly, ink wash painting emphasizes form and spirit. The form doesn't necessarily have to be very similar, but the spirit must be conveyed.
When everyone first saw this shrimp, didn't you feel like it was swimming in the water?
But actually, Nan Ye didn't paint a single stroke of water.
This is the spirit; this shrimp is alive!
Of course, the most impressive thing is that Nan Ye finished it in just one minute, which shows how profound his foundation is!"
Regarding this point, the Netizens could relate:
[Don't say it, it's really true. Although not a single stroke of water was painted, I feel like it's really swimming.]
[I originally thought it was just my own illusion, but I didn't expect everyone to have the same view, so there's no problem!]
[Now I just want to know if Nan Ye started learning from the womb, or if he was just a genius from the start.]
[Huh? Isn't that Director Song? Why is he here?]
Song Ci appearing in the live stream was a very rare occurrence; usually, he hides behind the scenes.
"Um, Old Ding, can you let me take a look?"
Ding Shijun looked and saw it was Song Ci. They had interacted when filming documentaries before, and their relationship was quite good, so he handed the painting over.
"Good, a good painting!"
As Song Ci looked, he started walking back, planning to return to the office area.
"Hey, Xiao Song, what's going on? Why are you taking the painting?"
Old Ding was so angry his beard bristled and his eyes widened. I showed you the painting, and you want to sneak it away?
Song Ci paused, not expecting the other party to be so alert: "Old Ding, give me this painting, and you can have Nan Ye paint another one."
"No way. What if he doesn't paint later? Then I'll suffer a huge loss!" Ding Shijun said, then tried to take back the painting from Song Ci's hand.
"Old Ding, just this once!"
"Xiao Song, I know what kind of person you are, don't even think about it! Last time you snuck away a draft, and now you want to pull the same trick again?"
"..."
The audience in the live stream finally knew why the Director appeared; it turned out he came to snatch the painting!
