Chapter 23 Roaring Old Yang

Author: Apricot and Pear

Gu Weijing placed more than a dozen palettes in sequence, each palette filled with paint of different shades.

More than just a palette.

His clothes, arms, backs, and his head and face were covered with sticky pigments. Some were rubbed accidentally, while others were applied on the back of his hands in order to compare different formulas when he adjusted the pigments.

This made Gu Weijing look a little scary, and he kept muttering to himself the name of the paint that others couldn't understand.

He even felt a little crazy.

Gu Weijing was now completely immersed in painting and in the grand and solemn world of "The Protector of the Dharma and the Buddha".

This kind of color adjustment, comparison, and coloring work has the pleasure of playing chess and doing questions with his ancestors.

The paint at hand is the number, the notes in mind are the formula, and the colors on the mural in front of you are the answer given by ancient painters.

This step-by-step solution and answers really made him feel happy. The dopamine secretion in his mind made him even forget the time and where he was.

Everything was silent, and only paints, brushes and murals in front of me were left.

"Damn, who the hell are you?"

What interrupted him to continue to be happy was a rough shout, and Gu Weijing felt that someone had pulled him on his back.

This made him almost apply a paint to the Vajra Arhat's face on the side.

Gu Weijing turned around with dissatisfaction and saw a slightly bald middle-aged uncle with a badass badge with a badge for project management.

"Old Yang?"

He finally got out of his world and recognized the identity of the person in front of him.

Lao Yang is Cao Lao’s current assistant, with an art background, and has changed careers to become an assistant. He is also the general manager of the project staff.

Don’t underestimate the painter’s personal assistants. Many of them have professional art backgrounds.

Some are hired by the painter themselves, while others are matched by the gallery signed.

Unlike agents, oil painting agents generally have many painters, from famous masters to new painters.

However, personal assistants are often only for a painter for a long time.

If a painter is famous enough, a personal assistant will also have a considerable income.

Depending on the contract, oil painting economics and painter's personal assistants add up to 7 to 20 percentage points of the total income of a painter.

Lao Yang - he can be the assistant of the great painter of the level, Cao, and he is also considered the emperor of this industry.

When I went around the world, whether in Hong Kong, Tokyo, Paris or WYN, I was called by the gallery owner, art tycoons, Mr. Yang, and Monsieur Yang.

Not to mention how much money he can get from Mr. Cao’s contract.

To put it bluntly, even if he didn't work for a penny, after a hundred years, Cao Lao would rely on his accumulated vision, connections and relationships, some of the world's top galleries were willing to pay a seven-figure salary to hire him as an agent.

After Mr. Cao worshipped the Buddha in the afternoon, he was about to finish the coloring of this No. 17 mural.

Lao Yang habitually came back to check, check painting tools, soak the tea to a moderate temperature, and if the pigment in the tin tube was used, he would simply rub the pigment with his hands.

The high-end pigments used by Mr. Cao rarely show that powder and peach glue are separated from each other.

But Lao Yang is a professional art assistant. From art exhibition arrangements to food, clothing, housing and transportation, he is used to doing it himself.

The famous celebrities in the old society were taken care of by servants before they went on stage every day - those who took care of the teacup alone and those who took care of the hot towels...

Lao Yang doesn't think his job is inferior.

He earned a high salary in order to make many painters with self-care ability and are at the same level as the disabled. Except for painting, everything is comfortable.

Having said that, if Gu Weijing had an assistant like Lao Yang, Tanaka Masahiro would never have happened.

As a result, when Lao Yang returned to the No. 17 mural, he saw this scene that drove him crazy.

"Gu is the scripture?"

With Lao Yang's professional level, although he had only met for a while, he did not forget this young man who had attracted the attention of artists before.

"What the hell are you doing here? Are you having a brain problem..."

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he was furious, and he wanted to curse.

It is common to criticize people in the art field, while painters are often withdrawn and introverted, and they don’t know how to spray them back when they are criticized by art magazines or peers. Moreover, they also have a disgrace to curse.

At this time, Lao Yang will have to appear like an assistant.

Assistant sprays, economical people spray, online spray, offline spray, and even if you are not happy with the squirting, you have to hire your own magazine writers and the other party to continue spraying.

The market value of ya is sometimes sprayed out.

Lao Yang learned the good skills of criticizing people in this industry in his early years. After becoming Mr. Cao's assistant, no one could criticize him for a while, which even made him feel a little lonely as a master.

He is not a person who criticizes him. Generally, he is middle-aged and has a smaller reputation. The painter who has never participated in an international biennial, the more he is, the less burden Lao Yang can feel.

And those outstanding young painters who show their talents will get some spit.

Although there are very few people in the art industry who can really become painters, most art students will go to IT companies to do game CG, what if they are becoming a big shot.

Normally, when it comes to Gu Weijing, Cao's apprentice Master Lin Tao, who shows his willingness to lead students. Faced with the situation where the other party is likely to become Cao's third-generation disciple, Lao Yang will not scold him and will greet him with a smile.

Very snobbish,

It's also very real.

Lao Yang is only forty-six years old this year. He is not too old in the art circle. He is planning to switch to oil painting economics when Mr. Cao completely retires, and may have a high-income career of 20 years.

He doesn't want to offend potential new artists.

The probability of an ordinary art dog becoming a well-known painter is one in ten thousand, and the chance of being admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts becomes one in ten thousand, and the chance of being able to enter the studio of a painter like Lin Tao becomes one in tenth. If he can become a disciple of an old professor like Lin Tao, he may be one in ten or even one in a few.

But now, when he saw Gu Weijing graffiti on the wall with a paintbrush, he no longer cared about so much.

He felt that Gu Wei had finished his work,

Not only he is done, but he may be done too.

He knew the hard work of Mr. Cao in this painting.

Mr. Cao is a person who is very serious about painting. He may be kind in other aspects, but he doesn't want you to do this, but he doesn't want you to do it.

Even if Mr. Cao doesn't pursue it, it will be a huge stain on himself.

"Fuck you【beep】——"

Lao Yang roared in his heart.

"Who gave you the right to draw it here?"

He was anxious.

“This is the task assigned to me by the staff.”

Gu Weijing replied, his eyes still looking at the murals.

"Bad... This is Mr. Cao's painting."

Lao Yang is also a human being. He knew that Gu Weijing would have been either crazy or he would have been cheated.

But it doesn't make sense to say this at this time.

"Okay." Gu Weijing nodded.

"What the hell are you doing now?"

When Lao Yang saw Gu Weijing still painting the wall with a paintbrush, he felt that this guy was probably really crazy about his surname.

"draw."

"Stop, why the fuck you are still drawing, stop."

"no."

"no!"

Lao Yang's temples thundered, and he felt his blood pressure rushing upwards.

He raised his arm and wanted to pull Gu Weijing away. Looking at Gu Weijing's hand holding a paintbrush, he was afraid that the other party would give a stroke to the ancient monuments on the wall.

"Stop, stop, I order you to stop!"

Old Yang roared.

"no."

Gu Weijing once again refused.

However, this time he said a few more words: "Now the wind is strong and the humidity changes greatly. The time difference and precipitation of the coloring pigment may destroy the overall effect of the whole painting. If I re-adjust the pigment, I may not achieve this effect."

There is no such thing in oil painting, because oil painting itself uses paints of different adhesion and expressiveness to draw layer by layer. For example, Gu Weijing's final assignment of the art class of Yangon International School in Yangon, the model oil picture is to finish the first draft, the previous layer of pigment is air-dried for a week, and then the other layer is added.

Even if some chromatic aberration is covered by the next layer, there will be no difference.

If you really feel that it is not good enough, it is not impossible to clear it with a drawing knife and then re-draw it.

But Chinese paintings and murals are different.

Especially for this kind of ancient monument, the inner side of the wall is like wafer biscuits, so you must be careful when maintaining it.

If you dare to use a painting knife to shovel sticky pigment, it will definitely fall into pieces with the original ancient mural for seven miles.

So what you draw for the first time is what you like.

This is also the reason why Lao Yang is so panicked.
