On October 20, the "2028 National Calligraphy and Painting Art Competition" organized by the China Painting and Calligraphy Academy ended.
The result was unexpected. Jiang Qiuyun, with the title of "Beauty Writer" and the popularity of "Bald Man Under the Lamp", attracted a large number of fans to help. Her points increased rapidly and she jumped to the top of the list, surpassing the other calligraphers. Finally won first place! Obtained the titles of "National First-Class Artist" and "Great Calligrapher"
Jiang Fangcheng took second place and was also a "great calligrapher".
This "national first-class artist" sounds a bit bluffing. In fact, there are still many people who have reached this level. I can't say that they are just a few, but they are almost there! There are hundreds of people in each province, and some provinces even have hundreds of people!
"Artist" includes calligraphy and painting, both in one category.
"Calligrapher" and "Great Calligrapher" are not titles awarded by the state, but are established rules in the calligraphy and painting market. Anyone who can sell a calligraphy for 100,000 yuan can be called a "calligrapher"; If it sells for 2 million yuan, then it is a "great calligrapher".
It’s no secret these days, money can speak, money has eyes, and it knows which works are worth collecting. If calligraphy and painting can't be sold at a reasonable price, then it's bullshit!
Someone is willing to pay 18 million yuan for Jiang Fangcheng's "Mountain Residence in Autumn Ming".
Jiang Qiuyun's "Ancient Style Thirty-Three" actually received a bid of 33 million yuan!
Jiang Fangcheng was not willing to sell it. He wanted to hang it in the living room to maintain his health.
Jiang Qiuyun readily agreed: "You can sell it, just bring me the money"! Because she can write several works like this every day, so why bother to sell them.
The buyer is from Shanghai, a young and influential entrepreneur named "Zhang Zhaoqing".
Zhang Zhaoqing's father, Zhang Dacheng, was also a businessman. He opened a building materials factory in his early years and earned more than one billion from export trade.
Before Zhang Zhaoqing entered high school, his father gave him 20,000 to 30,000 yuan as a gift every year. After he was admitted to a well-known high school, his father gave him a one-time reward of 1 million yuan.
He invested the money into the "Metaverse" and bought a piece of land in the virtual world. Later, the land appreciated significantly, and he had 200 to 300 million yuan when he graduated from college.
He continues to invest in "virtual assets" and is now 33 years old with assets of more than 20 billion.
Because he is rich, there is no shortage of women around him, but when there are too many women, he feels emptier. This emptiness comes from deep within the soul. Why do you feel empty? Because there are too many desires and too much pressure.
Even though he has so much money, that money is built on virtual assets. Virtual assets are visible and intangible. Take Bitcoin, for example. It was very popular before 2015. Trading was banned in China in 2018, and it will be banned again in 2024. After the ban is lifted, it fluctuates greatly, and it is normal to lose 30% of your assets overnight.
Zhang Zhaoqing often reads the market at night because the markets in Europe and the United States are very active, which causes his biological clock to be disrupted and he suffers from depression. He felt numb, lonely and confused, and women could not satisfy his spiritual sustenance.
He likes surfing the Internet, reading here and there, and has also seen Jiang Qiuyun, and even rewarded her with a gold alliance leader, but he used the online name "Lonely Little Insect".
Jiang Qiuyun didn't know who he was. She updated 30,000 to 40,000 words every day and had millions of fans. How could she know the face behind each online name?
Zhang Zhaoqing read the calligraphy, Li Bai's "Thirty-Three Ancient Styles": "There is a giant fish in Beiming, thousands of miles long. It sprays snow from three mountains and swallows water from hundreds of rivers. It follows the sea transport, and the wind rises. I Observe the sky flying, ninety thousand square meters are not enough."
Just at the first glance, he felt that his whole body was full of power, and his depressed heart fluctuated violently!
"I want to be a roc! I don't want to live such a depressed life, I want to spread my wings and soar in the sky!"
At that moment, his empty heart was actually satisfied. It was like after three months of rainy days, bright sunshine suddenly shone on him. The comfortable feeling was indescribable!
In the following days, he started running and exercising, and his sleep quality also greatly improved!
So, he paid a high price to buy the calligraphy.
In order to express his sincerity, he rewarded "Yun Ji" with a "Diamond Leader" from "Fanghua" for "Red Leaf Screen Window Dawn".
"Fanghua" has set up different levels for many fans, such as leader, silver leader, gold leader, platinum leader and diamond leader. The leader rewards 1,000 yuan, the silver leader rewards 10,000 yuan, the gold leader rewards 100,000 yuan, and the platinum leader rewards 100,000 yuan. One million yuan, Diamond Alliance Leader tens of millions.
The website has been in operation for more than 20 years, and there are dozens of cases every day for Silver League members, two or three cases for Gold League members every day, and more than ten cases for Platinum League members every year. However, there has never been a Diamond League leader who rewards tens of millions of yuan at a time!
Therefore, when the first "Diamond Leader" was born, all the editors, authors and readers of the entire website were shocked! The continuous flashing screen almost dazzled the readers’ eyes!
"What's going on? Who rewarded the Diamond Alliance?"
"Oh my god, there is actually a diamond king who spends tens of millions of gold!"
"I'm so jealous! Who is this reward for?"
"Yunji! "Red Leaf Screen Window Dawn"!"
"Tsk tsk, beautiful writers have a selling point! Her pretty face can make people swoon."
"The ancients said that a city can be conquered by a smile, and a country can be conquered by a smile again. Is this what it means?"
"Which diamond king is so stupid? He tipped through the website, but he didn't know that the website takes 50% of the commission? With so much money, why not just give it to Yun Ji? Maybe he can win a night of happiness!"
"Happy to your mother! My Yunji is pure and pure, and the money she earns from writing is enough to last a lifetime!"
"Yunji has a boyfriend, Lu Cheng, who has won 7 Olympic gold medals! He is a national hero!"
"Lu Cheng is even more of a diamond king. He earns hundreds of millions in endorsement fees in one year. I wonder if this is Lu Cheng giving a reward to his girlfriend..."
"It's definitely not Lu Cheng. How could Lu Cheng have a screen name like 'Lonely Little Chong' when he is accompanied by Yun Ji?"
"Haha, Lu Cheng was slapped in the face!"
While people were talking about it, "Lonely Bug", the "Diamond Leader", left a message online: "This money is a deposit for Yunji's calligraphy! Yunji wrote a calligraphy and won the 2028 China Art Competition I am willing to invest 33 million to buy the grand prize! Because that picture is a special medicine that can cheer me up, eat well, and sleep soundly!"
After seeing this message, someone went to the website of the Calligraphy and Painting Institute to appreciate the calligraphy, and left Yun Ji a message full of praise.
Through this method, Zhang Zhaoqing contacted Jiang Qiuyun and directly transferred 28 million, and the other 5 million was a reward from the Platinum Alliance. As for the 5 million that was taken as a commission, it was regarded as a compliment to the writer Yun Ji.
October 22nd, Friday morning.
Lu Cheng took the high-speed train to the Magic City.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, he got off the train and took the subway to Jinniu Plaza on the Bund.
He checked into a hotel near Jinniu Plaza, and then made a phone call: "Lonely bug? The calligraphy and painting you want has arrived, please come and pick it up!"
A voice came from the phone: "Who are you? Please send it to my house and I'll give you a tip!"
"I'm Lu Cheng, how much tip are you going to give me?"
"Ahem...Mr. Lu, you personally sent calligraphy and paintings here? How dare you do this?"
“I’m here to run the marathon!”
"Your address? I'll rush there as soon as possible!"
Lu Cheng told him the address.
Only 20 minutes had passed when someone rang the doorbell "Ding Dong"!
Lu Cheng opened the door and saw two men standing at the door. One of them had long hair, a thin face, and a sallow complexion; the other was tall and looked like a bodyguard.
The man with long hair said: "I am Zhang Zhaoqing, my online name is 'Lonely Little Chong'. Mr. Lu, can you come in and talk?"
Lu Cheng said: "Please come in."
Zhang Zhaoqing is thin and 1.75 meters tall. Although he is shorter than Lu Cheng, for southerners, he is already relatively tall.
He looked at Lu Cheng with a smile on his face and said: "Mr. Lu, I am also your fan. You may not believe it, but I watched every game you played during the Olympics! Do you know why? Because I I had insomnia and couldn’t sleep at night, so I filled my time by watching games. During the two weeks when there were games, I was in a good mood, but it’s a pity that the Olympics ended soon!”
Lu Cheng took out the scroll and said, "Yunji asked me to bring this to you."
Zhang Zhaoqing took the scroll and unfolded it carefully, with a smile on his face and praised: "Great words! It has an impact that hits your face! This is exactly what I want, it is much better than watching it on a computer screen! Mr. Lu, I am very I envy you for having a girlfriend like Yunji."
Lu Cheng said: "Mr. Zhang, what kind of girlfriend does a rich man like you want but can't find? In the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, there are so many beauties, like spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, and the rings are fat and the swallows are thin. However, I see that your body is thin and your mental state is It’s not too good, it’s better to take it easy.”
Zhang Zhaoqing smiled bitterly and said: "I have depression. I wanted to rely on women to treat it, but the more treatment I got, the worse it became. I originally thought that I would not live to be 40 years old, but with Yun Ji's calligraphy, I might be able to live to 60 years old. Bar."
Lu Cheng said in a deep voice: "This calligraphy alone is not enough. If you want to live a long life, it is best to buy one every year. Let me tell you, the calligraphy written by Yun Ji has 'divine will'. If you hang it in the house, it will It attracts spiritual energy from the sky. But your three orifices of heaven, earth, and human are closed, and it is difficult for spiritual energy to enter the body. Your body is like a felled tree, which has no roots and cannot absorb water from the ground or carbon dioxide from the sky. If we carry out photosynthesis, it will only wither away day by day."
"Ah? Mr. Lu, do you still know medicine?"
"I am a graduate student majoring in acupuncture."
"If I buy a few more calligraphy paintings, can it cure depression?"
"Yunji's calligraphy has just entered the Tao, and the level is not high enough. It can only relieve your symptoms within two years, and it will not work after two years. But her realm continues to improve, and given time, she may be able to completely cure your disease. "
Lu Cheng said this, but he was thinking in his heart: "The treatment of depression does not rely entirely on external forces. The key is to control it yourself. If you are always like this, you will never be cured."
Although he didn't know that Zhang Zhaoqing went to find a woman to relieve the pressure because of heavy investment pressure, but he could see that the vitality above Zhang Zhaoqing's head was weak, Yin Qi was shrouded, and Yang Qi was insufficient. This situation was equivalent to "half-human" Half ghost”!
After hearing these words, Zhang Zhaoqing felt dubious. After all, he was an entrepreneur and he was not so easy to trust others.
Afterwards, the two of them talked for a few more minutes before Zhang Zhaoqing stood up and left.
