My scenic spot is a hit

Chapter 382 Open a gallery!

Zhang Menghua's office is very big, beyond imagination. newᴄᴏᴍ

Luo Yinning roughly estimated that this office was at least 200 square meters.

It’s almost 10 times bigger than his small office in the scenic spot!

Moreover, the decoration style and furnishings of the office reflect a strong personal style.

On the east side of the office, there is a dense row of brackets with more than a dozen calligraphy works hanging on them.

The west side of the office is also supported by a row of brackets, with more than a dozen paintings hanging on them.

These paintings include drawings, watercolors and ink paintings, with various styles.

The painting that Luo Yanning painted using Li Xinyan as the reference model when she came to Yuhuchun was prominently listed.

The painting is still placed in the golden position in the center.

The four treasures of the study and papers of various sizes are placed in an orderly manner on an oversized desk on the northernmost side.

It is more appropriate to say that this is Zhang Menghua's study than her office.

"Little Luo, I heard from Lao Guang that you have two characteristics in painting. One is that the image is realistic, and the other is that it is fast."

"Lao Guang said that you can produce a painting in ten minutes or even a few minutes."

"How about you give me a warm-up painting first, and then we can start talking about business."

"I'm never picky. As long as you draw it, I'll like it. Even if you just draw a circle, I'll have someone frame it and put it on my exhibition wall."

Zhang Menghua invited Luo Yanning to sit down and began to trick him with a smile.

Although Zhang Menghua is full of tricks, it can be seen that she really likes Luo Yanning's paintings.

"Then... let me draw a sketch for Sister Zhang first."

Luo Yanning also wanted to improve her relationship with Zhang Menghua, so she agreed.

Luo Yanning didn't care much about the income from Yuhuchun Tea House, but he cared very much about his relationship with Zhang Menghua.

Yuhuchun Teahouse is the most upscale and high-standard teahouse in the city. The customers who come here to consume are either rich or expensive.

Zhang Menghua's personal connections are definitely a huge intangible wealth.

Luo Yanning did make a lot of money after joining the [Super Scenic Area System] and established a lot of relationships.

However, his connections were limited to a small county like Wanshan County, and he didn't know any big bosses from higher up.

Zhang Menghua has a very strong relationship in Shishi and even in the entire Hebei Province. He may not be able to pursue her in the future.

As the saying goes, it is better to burn incense when you have something to do than to run more often on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month when nothing happens.

It is better to establish a good relationship with Zhang Menghua in advance than to improvise when you need him later.

"I'll hang paper and sharpen your pen for you!"

As soon as Zhang Menghua heard Luo Yanning agreed, he volunteered to be an assistant and hurriedly prepared the easel and drawing paper. new

If Guang Tongfu saw this scene, his jaw would definitely be shocked.

Zhang Menghua was born in the Academy of Fine Arts, and also majored in calligraphy and painting.

She was also well-known as a talented woman at the Shishi Academy of Fine Arts back then.

The former goddess of the Academy of Fine Arts is now working as an assistant for others.

It has the smell of a noble lady grinding and a strongman taking off his boots.

Soon, Zhang Menghua prepared a drawing board and paper for Luo Yanning, and personally sharpened a bunch of pencils of various types for him.

Sketching seems very simple and casual, but there are also many things to pay attention to.

Each model of pencil works differently.

4B, and up-tone, draw the dark side.

2B and 4B are used for painting gray surfaces, and HB and 2B are used for painting bright surfaces and details.

"What should I draw this time..."

Luo Yanning picked up a 4B pencil and thought about it.

Zhang Menghua looked forward to it, but hesitated several times before he had to remind Luo Yanning loudly.

However, as an elder and a face-conscious person, she really couldn't speak out.

"Brother Luo, I think Sister Zhang is a very good model."

Li Xinyan, who had been an audience member for a long time, suddenly spoke to remind Luo Yanning.

After Zhang Menghua heard Li Xinyan's words, he turned to look at her and gave her an approving look.

Li Xinyan doesn’t know much about painting, but she knows how to observe words and colors. She continued:

"With Sister Zhang's good temperament and Brother Luo's superb painting skills, she can definitely paint a classic painting."

Zhang Menghua looked at Li Xinyan with a smile and said: "You kid, how can I, an old lady, have any temperament? I can't do it, I'm old."

Previously, Zhang Menghua and Li Xinyan did not make any eye contact throughout the whole process. It was obvious that the relationship between the two was very ordinary.

Li Xinyan's timely words brought the relationship between the two closer.

"Sister Zhang, I think Xinyan's suggestion is good, so I will boldly draw a sketch of Sister Zhang."

Luo Yanning pretended to hesitate before writing to give Li Xinyan a chance to make friends with Zhang Menghua, and Li Xinyan successfully seized this opportunity.

"Then... okay!" Zhang Menghua also achieved his goal and sat down on the stool in front of Luo Yanning happily.

Luo Yanning walked to the easel, observed it for a while, and then started to paint. First, she used a 4B pencil to render the surrounding background.

Then I switched to a 2B pencil to paint the gray surface.

Pencils of various types can be switched freely in Luo Yanning's hands.

It took less than three minutes to draw a general outline. new

Next, Luo Yanning began to use 2B and 4B pencils instead of painting bright surfaces and began to draw details.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes...

It took five minutes and thirty-three seconds for Luo Yanning to finish the drawing and put the pencil in his hand back into the pen slot under the stand.

Li Xinyan watched the whole process of his painting from behind Luo Yanning. The expression on her face gradually changed from calmness to surprise. After seeing the finished product, she was so surprised that she was speechless.

Luo Yanning looked at Zhang Menghua and said, "Sister Zhang, I've finished the painting. Please forgive me for any imperfections."

"As long as you don't paint me as an old witch."

Zhang Menghua said with a smile, stood up from his seat and walked towards Luo Yanning.

There was only seven or eight meters between the two of them, but the distance of a few steps felt very long to Zhang Menghua.

Seeing Li Xinyan's stunned look behind Luo Yanning, Zhang Menghua was also curious about what Luo Yanning had painted her into, which shocked the little girl like that.

"This, this is..."

After seeing Luo Yanning's finished product, Zhang Menghua, like Li Xinyan, opened his mouth in surprise!

Like, it’s so similar!

Zhang Menghua stood in front of the sketch, as if looking into a mirror that could only reflect figures in black and white.

Moreover, the unique color of pencils makes the characters in the paintings look more real, even more real than photos!

"Ronald Ronaldinho, your sketches are definitely ranked among the best in China!"

"You said you have such a high level but don't want to develop into the art circle. What kind of scenic spot are you running? It's a waste of talent!"

After being surprised, Zhang Menghua looked at Luo Yanning, feeling both admiration and regret.

"Everyone has his own ambitions. I think it is quite interesting to open a scenic spot. Being among the green mountains and green waters every day is not only good for your physical and mental health, but also cultivates your sentiments."

Luo Yanning wiped her hands with the wipes Li Xinyan handed her and explained with a smile.

Zhang Menghua said with a look of regret: "What a pity! What a pity! If you are deeply involved in art, you will definitely create a big career in the future!"

Luo Yanning said modestly: "Sister Zhang praised me highly. I am only an amateur, but I am not as good as you said."

"If you were an amateur, all the teachers in Guang Tongfu's school would be deadbeats!"

Zhang Menghua said with a smile: "Guang Tongfu was able to trick you into becoming a teacher in their school. You must have found a treasure."

Luo Yanning smiled and said, "I am honored to be admitted to an art school."

"Xiao Luo, since I last saw the painting you drew for Xiao Li, I have been thinking about one thing. Seeing the sketch you just drew, my idea became even stronger."

Zhang Menghua suddenly turned around and pointed at the painting Luo Yanning had painted for Li Xinyan before, and said seriously:

“I want to separate this office and create a gallery to display my collection.

It would be best if you could provide a few more paintings in a variety of styles. "

"Build a gallery?" Luo Yanning looked confused and confused when she heard Zhang Menghua's words.

A gallery in a teahouse? What kind of magical operation is this?

"Xiao Luo, you may not know much about our teahouse. Our Yuhuchun is not only a place to sell tea, but also a platform for multi-party cultural exchanges."

Zhang Menghua explained with a smile: "A large proportion of our guests at Yuhuchun are literati.

For example, Liang Hongxi, the president of our Provincial Artists Association, Bai Kaicheng, the president of the Provincial Calligraphers Association, and Ma Hongjun, the president of the Provincial Writers Association, are all our VIP customers. "

"Well, that's it..." Luo Yanning understood this time.

It is considered a great thing for a teahouse to gather together Shu, Mei, Zuo, and three presidents.

Zhang Menghua said politely: "So, Ronaldinho, do you want to think carefully about my proposal?

You are also one of the major shareholders of our Yuhuchun. Do you also want our teahouse to get better and better? "

"Of course I want our teahouse to get better and better, but..."

Luo Yanning smiled and said, "It's just that I'm a nobody, so I'd better not show my shame in front of others."

"Ronaldo, I have to say something to you about this. It is a good thing for young people to understand that humility is good, but too much humility is not a good thing either!"

Zhang Menghua pointed to the painting that Luo Jinning had painted before and said: "Yesterday Liang Hongxi came to our place for tea. He was full of praise for your painting and said that he would recruit you to join the Artists Association of our Hebei Province if he has the chance."

"Pick me into the Artists Association?" Luo Yanning was still a little surprised after hearing the news.

Zhang Menghua nodded and said seriously: "Yes, he means that when the enrollment expansion is relaxed next year, he will directly drag you into the Artists Association of our Hebei Province.

In the words of President Liang Hongxi, we cannot bury a talent like you.

Our Hebei Province Artists Association has a low presence in the country and is in urgent need of young and promising painters like you to carry the banner. "

Luo Yanning waved her hands and smiled and said: "What kind of talent am I? I'd better forget it. I really don't have the time or energy to develop in this area."

"Ronald, as someone who has been there, I would like to give you some advice. Even if you don't want to develop into art, don't refuse President Liang Hongxi's kindness."

Zhang Menghua persuaded: "As the saying goes, more friends mean more roads, and more friends make it easier to travel. In our country, human resources are the most precious resources.

As long as there is an opportunity to expand your network, don't miss it. Even if you don't need it now, you might need it in the future. "

"Sister Zhang is right." Luo Yanning agreed with Zhang Menghua's words.

The reason why he readily agreed to paint for Zhang Menghua today was actually because he wanted to develop her connections.

"How about Xiao Luo? Do you want to consider the proposal that sister just made?"

"Let me tell you, this art exhibition is actually similar to golf. It is far away from ordinary people, but it is a fashion among the upper class."

"Among the ten big guys, at least seven or eight like calligraphy or painting."

Zhang Menghua continued to persuade: "When our gallery is established, the reputation of Yuhuchun Tea House will be greatly increased.

It is not only a kind of publicity for our restaurant, but also a good publicity for you personally.

Both of us can gain both fame and fortune, and win-win cooperation..."

Zhang Menghua talked about the topic of galleries for four or five minutes.

It sounds like the Yuhushun Tea House would not be complete without this gallery.

If we don’t open this gallery, the world will not tolerate it!

"Sister Zhang has already talked about this. If I refuse again, wouldn't it be a bit disrespectful?"

Luo Yanning said with a helpless smile: "Since Sister Zhang wants to open this gallery, and she doesn't mind that I am not famous and my skills are average, then I will show my shame and contribute a few paintings to the gallery."

"That's right! It's a deal! Tomorrow, no, I'll ask the people from the decoration company to look at the place tomorrow, no, in the afternoon, and we'll start work tonight, and try to open this gallery as soon as possible."

It took Zhang Menghua a long time to convince Luo Yanning to agree, as if he was afraid that he would return, he hurriedly stopped talking.

Luo Yanning asked: "What kind of painting does Sister Zhang want?"

"It doesn't matter, as long as it's drawn by you!" Zhang Menghua was not picky and was very easy to pass up.

Luo Yanning: "Then I'll think about it when I go back tonight. Tomorrow I'll send someone to send Sister Zhang...send 5 paintings over!"

"Okay! Five paintings, five paintings." Zhang Menghua was not that greedy. When he heard that Luo Yanning could support five paintings, he nodded with satisfaction.

They were given five paintings when they opened, which is already a great honor. As for more paintings... I’ll ask for them slowly in the future!

The two discussed the gallery for about ten minutes, and then got back to the business of the day.

"Li Xinyan, right? We will sign a new contract later. From now on, you will be our vice president of Yu Huchun."

Zhang Menghua didn't have any objections to this matter at first. She had a happy chat with Luo Yanning, so she no longer had any objections now.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang, and thank you, Brother Luo! If you do something bad in the future, please ask Sister Zhang and Brother Luo to criticize and advise."

Li Xinyan endured the excitement in her heart and bent down to bow to Zhang Menghua and Luo Yanning to express her gratitude.

Jingle bells, jingle bells--!

As soon as Li Xinyan finished speaking, Luo Yanning's cell phone rang in her pocket.

I took out my phone and saw the name on the caller ID: Big Star.

Luo Yanning connected the phone with a swipe of her finger, and Ruby Lin's voice sounded on the other side.
