Okiya Subaru was drinking tea and resting aside, and curiously watched Chi Feichi modify the appearance of the things in front of him.
First up is the bobblehead grandpa doll.
Chi Feichi carefully painted a few strokes on the face of the shaking-head grandfather doll, changing the doll's original confused expression into a helpless, sad and smiling expression, which makes people laugh at a glance. I felt my heart sinking, but after looking at it for a long time, I seemed to be able to get some comfort from the doll's smile.
Subaru Okiya looked at the expression of the doll carefully and asked proactively, "Do you want me to connect the power line and let it rotate its head and body to take a look? As a public welfare souvenir, it will also retain the characteristics of body rotation, right?" "
"I almost forgot, you, an engineering graduate student, can help." Chi Feichi saw that there was a strong man to pull, and was not polite to Okiya Subaru. He handed the doll to Okiya Subaru, "See if you can change it to a battery." To provide power, a base will be added when the time comes, and the battery will be placed in the base.”
"Let me give it a try." Subaru Okiya put the teacup aside and rummaged for tools from the box. "Doctor, there are many circuit devices here. The circuits are already buried inside the doll. It is not difficult to make a battery-powered device. It is very easy. It’ll be done soon.”
"Then I'm sorry to bother you," Chi Feichi quickly drank two sips of tea to moisten his throat, put the tea cup aside, picked up the alarm frog and the paintbrush, and prepared to modify the appearance of the alarm frog, "Mr. Okiya, the designer of the charity souvenirs The identity will be announced in the event flyer and event bulletin board, and the doctor can add you as a production assistant. Although laymen will not pay attention to this, if you have this experience, it may be beneficial to your graduation and work. It’s good, at least it won’t be bad, what do you think?”
He was very serious... treating Fenmao as an 'engineering graduate student'.
Okiya Subaru started to make circuit modifications to the doll, and responded with a smile, "The initial production design came from the doctor, and the doll modification design came from you. I just did something that anyone who understands circuits can do. , I have not made any meaningful contribution at all, and I am really embarrassed to get this reputation. Mr. Chi, will you add your name to the list of assistants this time?"
On the table were open bottles of lacquered and waterproof paint.
Chi Feichi took a paintbrush and painted on the alarm frog. He responded without raising his head, "No, if THK Company profits from it, I will profit. I don't need to get that reputation. It's too troublesome. Not much help either.”
"I don't like to be paid attention to or disturbed by too many people," Okiya Subaru also lowered his head and dealt with the matter at hand. "When it comes to work, I have already signed a contract with others. I don't need to rely on reputation to get job opportunities. For me, Having said that, being in the limelight is something that may disturb your life, seem troublesome, and doesn’t bring much benefit. No matter where you are, your own strength is the most important, isn’t it?”
"You're right, but sometimes reputation..." Chi Feichi changed a paintbrush, dipped it in orange paint, and continued to draw on the intelligence frog's face, "Forget it, this is your business, naturally it should be With your wishes as my top priority and not wanting to be in the limelight, I have no position to refute your words."
"I know you are thinking about me. No matter what, I am very grateful for your consideration."
Okiya Subaru smiled, looked up at Chi Feichi, and was stunned the next second.
Chi Feichi placed the newly painted alarm frog on a piece of cardboard, ready to dry it and paint it.
To be precise, it was a 'Sad Frog' transformed by his hands.
Alarm Frog's original green body has not changed, but Chi Feichi has drawn eyelids on his round eyes, covering half of the eyeballs. The lower half of the exposed eyes have become black and white, and there are exaggerated water-colored noodle tears on his face. Below are thick, wavy, bright orange lips.
Green and orange also chose colors with high saturation, and they were put together to form a frog with a big face, bulging eyes, and thick lips, turning the originally pretty alarm frog into an ugly frog.
However, combined with the aggrieved and sad expression on the frog's face and the somewhat tired and lifeless eyes, it makes people dumbfounded.
It seems that this ugly frog is quite interesting.
Subaru Okiya found that he actually felt that the frog was ugly but cute. He couldn't help but wonder if his aesthetics had changed. He lowered his head and assembled the circuit of the bobblehead grandpa doll, trying to find a reason for himself.
it may be because……
The ugly frog's face is similar to that of humans, and the color is exaggerated, so he thinks it's a little cute?
Like a circus clown.
For a long time, haven't clowns' exaggerated fake faces painted with various colors of paint been appreciated by many humans as 'interesting ugliness'?
…
Half an hour later, Dr. Ali finished the identification and comparison of brick powder, put away the tools, turned to the table, poured a cup of tea, looked up at the pile of brightly colored objects on the table, his expression gradually changed from astonishment to Become confused.
First there was the ugly frog with a sausage mouth. He was shocked at first sight. When compared with this ugly frog, he felt that his original alarm frog looked quite handsome.
Then, there were the five toy grenades hanging by silk threads above the cardboard, drying their fresh paint.
The toy grenade he originally made was painted in a brass metallic color, and its appearance looked very technological. Except for the color-marked stickers, which were a bit childish, it was overall very cool.
Now, after Chi Fei changed it, one of the brass-colored toy grenades turned into a mottled metallic color, with a simple green graffiti figure painted on it.
The other four toy grenades were even more messy and strange, with one each with a light green, bright yellow, sky blue, and pink background color, all of which were bright colors with high saturation.
In addition, various graffiti were also painted on the four toy grenades.
On the sky blue toy grenade, a simple drawing of a villain was drawn with red paint. It was probably because the brush was stained with too much paint during the painting, and there were traces of red paint running down the lines, which made it look a bit weird.
The light green toy grenade is painted with dark blue paint, and a human face is painted on it. The facial features are distorted and the two rows of teeth are sharp and crooked. It looks like some kind of artistic abstract painting.
The graffiti on the bright yellow toy grenade is pink and purple, and you can barely distinguish a smiley face pattern, and a four-legged animal pattern with an erect tail, like a cat with fried fur.
On the pink toy grenade, the graffiti color is black, and the simple drawing pattern of the graffiti is a bird. The bird has its wings raised and its legs raised, as if it is trying to learn to fly.
These graffiti look like patterns daubed casually by a child of three or five years old, but the bright colors are so weird that the graffiti looks a little weird, making people wonder-whoever made these things, Is your mental state okay?
Looking at these graffiti, he would think of the British painter Louis Wain.
Louis Wayne's earliest famous painting was a painting called "Kitty Cat's Christmas Party", in which hundreds of anthropomorphic kittens were painted. The kittens were delicately and cutely painted, and the colors were warm and lively.
Afterwards, Louis Wayne began to have mental problems and was diagnosed with schizophrenia in a mental hospital.
While in the hospital, Louis Wayne continued to paint, but the paintings gradually became weird.
The cats in Louis Wayne's works are no longer naughty and cute, but appear melancholy, indifferent, cunning, gloomy, sluggish, and frightened, and the colors gradually become bright and abrupt.
In the end, the cats painted by Louis Wain became even weirder. Those paintings called "kaleidoscope cats" were complicated and stacked with various yellow, blue, green, and red color blocks to form cat shapes. It is full of absurdity as if the world is falling apart. If you look closely, those kaleidoscope cats seem to have a gloomy sneer on their faces, which makes those who see it feel fear in their hearts.
Looking at Fei Chi's changed shape of the toy grenade, he felt that it was very much in the style of Louis Wayne's paintings, which was the style of Louis Wayne's paintings while he was living in a mental hospital.
In fact, Fei Chi has also been diagnosed with schizophrenia, so it’s not surprising that he would draw such weird paintings...
So, is Fei Chi's current mental state okay?
In front of the table, Chi Feichi was sitting on a chair, holding a red toy grenade with freshly dried primer in his left hand, and a paintbrush dipped in yellow paint in his right hand. He lowered his head and concentrated on drawing a simple drawing of the sun on the toy grenade. After thinking about the pattern, I added the moon next to it.
Okiya Subaru sat next to him and raised his head to look at Dr. Agasa.
Dr. Agasa looked puzzled and cast a somewhat solemn look at Okiya Subaru.
He was just busy for a while, why did it happen like this?
Okiya Subaru put on a somewhat helpless expression.
He didn't know what was going on.
He suddenly discovered that Mr. Chi was drawing strange ugly frogs and changing toy grenades into strange shapes. He was curious about what Mr. Chi wanted to do, so... he kept staring until now...
Seeing that Subaru Okiya couldn't seem to give him an explanation, Dr. Ali decided to test Chi Feichi's mental state, "Ahem, Feichi, the brick powder has been identified..."
"Thank you, doctor, please wait for me a little longer." Chi Feichi drew the moon graffiti on the toy grenade, tied the toy grenade with a rope, hung it up, and drew round glasses, Beard, "I'll paint you on it."
Dr. Ari looked at Chi Feichi's cold expression, his slightly lowered eyes focused on the graffiti graffiti, and then cast a questioning look at Subaru Okiya.
There is indeed something wrong with Fei Chi's current mental state, right?
Okiya Subaru looked at the graffiti drawn by Chi Feichi and worked out several speech plans in his mind before speaking out, "It does look very similar to the doctor... But Mr. Chi, these are all simple drawings, right? Just like It’s a child’s graffiti, isn’t it a bit…too childish?”
Chi Feichi: "..."
With the small area and uneven surface of a toy grenade, could Fenmao expect him to draw "Along the River During the Qingming Festival"?
In order to maintain a relatively friendly image, Chi Feichi swallowed all his offensive words, finished the last stroke, stopped writing, and explained to Subaru, "The toy grenade has a small area and a thick brush, so it can only be painted Into a simple drawing.”
"Uh, but..." Dr. A Li said with a dry smile, "Fei Chi, if you want to add some patterns to the toy grenade, you can use a finer brush to paint it, or even use a machine to print the pattern. , you don’t have to do it yourself at all.”
