Chapter 667: Ten Legendary Artworks
On the Internet.
“D*mn! These two fellas are so arrogant. They don’t even have any respect for Chinese Arts.”
“This Jin Cheng Guo is too shameless. He literally learned Chinese Arts. I didn’t expect him to disrespect his own ancestors.”
“This is a common sight. The Koreans keep claiming that Chinese Arts belongs to them. Previously, a Chinese Artist from Korea kept insisting that it belonged to the Chinese and he was shut out by the others. What’s the point of speaking the truth these days? People suffer horrific fates.”
“Three years ago, Chinese Arts didn’t do well at all in the International Arts Exhibition. The Japanese and Korean netizens laughed. If they don’t get a good placing this time, it’d be shameful.”
“What are they doing in the International Arts Exhibitions? Do we really not have someone that can match up to their standards?”
“Are you talking rubbish? Previously, the Chinese Arts Association organized a competition for kids and they cheated in the results. What do you think of our Chinese Arts Association? This time, it’s going to be the same outcome. We’ll be in the last place again.”
“The ‘Chinese Artists’ these days don’t even have real talent. They’re just cheaters. They sell artworks for more than a few million dollars. Who would be so stupid to buy them? But then again, people really bought them. Then, the Chinese Artists that managed to sell their artworks suddenly became renown artists. Their lives were changed forever.”
...
At the Chinese Arts Association.
“Elder Zheng, people are looking down on us. We have to get a good placing this time. If not, we’d be a joke.”
“Yeah, although we’ve never done well, we can’t do anything about it. We can’t really say anything to rebut them. Now, everyone looks down on us.”
“President, whose works are we going to send? According to the trend, the standard of the International Arts Exhibition improves every year. If we do not submit work of higher quality, we’d be in danger.”
Everyone gathered in the conference room and discussed about this matter.
They were the core of the association’s management. They possessed true talent and they weren’t just artists that produced insignificant results.
Although they were good, they could only do that much about it.
Zheng Zhong Shan said calmly, “Alright, we only have to send thirty artworks for this International Arts Exhibition. Let me split up the work.”
“Elder Yun, you will submit your best artwork. Just one will do.”
Elder Yun was a bespectacled elderly man. He stood up, “Don’t worry. I would give my best one even if I have to lose my life.”
Zheng Zhong Shan smiled, “It’s not that serious. Just do your best.”
Then, he continued to appoint seventeen members. When the others thought that he was going to announce more people, Zheng Zhong Shan sat down. That indicated that it was over.
“President, it’s only been seventeen artworks. According to the rules, there should be thirteen more.”
Zheng Zhong Shan pointed, “Me, Elder Yue and Elder Tao, will be submitting one each.”
“That’s only twenty artworks.”
Zheng Zhong Shan looked at them and shook his head, “I don’t know what to say. Did you guys forget about Elder Lin?”
When he said Elder Lin, everyone was stunned.
“Oh, right. How could I possibly forget Elder Lin? If Elder Lin were to go for this, it’s going to be a good fight.”
“Yeah, no wonder our President seems so calm today. It’s because he is prepared for it.”
The crowd laughed. If they left the remaining artworks to Elder Lin, they could be rest assured. They’ve all seen Elder Lin’s artworks before. They were all stunning. Even if they were to study Chinese Arts for the rest of their lives, they might not even draw as well as Elder Lin.
It was law-defying.
They were far inferior.
At Cloud Street.
Lin Fan was a little unhappy with the news online. Chinese Arts was their national treasure. How could people look down on it? What was worse was that the Korean imposters also looked down on them. How could he tolerate this?
He definitely couldn’t tolerate it.
Initially, he wanted to just submit ten artworks. With his ability, he would be able to stun everyone even if he were to do it casually.
However, he decided to do more than just that.
He didn’t just want to stun everyone. He wanted them to change their perspective on Chinese Arts.
He wanted them to feel that they’d never be able to surpass his standard.
He immediately did a search on the Encyclopedia.
‘Best Chinese Arts’
Ten legendary artworks.
The Encyclopedia introduced ten artworks. These artworks were considered to be the best Chinese artworks. He didn’t recognize the names of those artists. However, when he saw the ten artworks, he was confident that he could replicate them.
It was because he had the mythical boost of the Encyclopedia.
This was the power that nobody could explain. Even the best knowledge could be drastically improved.
If he were to present all these artworks, everyone would be stunned speechless.
He chuckled as he thought of becoming famous in the international arts scene.
Fraud Tian asked, “What’s wrong with you? Why did you laugh so cunningly?”
Wu You Lan turned around too. Although she didn’t say anything, her expression had the same meaning as Fraud Tian’s question.
Lin Fan smiled, “What do you mean by cunningly? I was just being confident. Did you read the news online? I am prepared to participate in the International Arts Exhibition. I laughed as I thought to myself that my artworks will shock the whole world.”
Fraud Tian touched Lin Fan’s forehead and said curiously, “You don’t have a fever. Why are you hallucinating? I think you’re awesome but don’t be too cocky. You should know that there would always be someone better...”
Lin Fan moved Fraud Tian’s hand away, “Don’t belittle me. You’ll see how powerful I am.”
Fraud Tian looked at Lin Fan and nodded, “Yeah, yeah, whatever you said is right.”
Wu You Lan came to Lin Fan, “I believe Brother Lin can do it.”
Fraud Tian said helplessly, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Love is blind. It’s pretty deep.”
Lin Fan gently patted Wu You Lan’s head. Then, he touched it like a kitten, “You Lan, I love your blind faith. When I win, I’ll draw an artwork for you.”
Wu You Lan smiled and grabbed Lin Fan’s arm, “Brother Lin, don’t lie to me. I trust you a lot.”
Lin Fan replied, “Are you sure you trust me?”
Wu You Lan just said ‘yeah’. She couldn’t express the happiness she was feeling.
