Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 374 It Can't Really Be Like a TV Show (4000 words)
Higashino Division is very satisfied.

He has been coming to Beiyi School's studio for three consecutive days, and he is basically familiar with his own level now.

Compared with the original, his painting skills have indeed gone up two steps.

This can be felt from the most intuitive color adjustment.

The hardness and softness of the color, including changes and transitions, are much more harmonious than before.

In this state, Higashinoji even felt that he could challenge abstract painting—well, this is a joke.

All in all, Higashinoji really feels that his level has risen very quickly.

In the words of the novel, it is a 'breakthrough'.

At his feet and on the wall are all the canvases provided by the students of Beiyi School's studio, and some of the paints on them are not completely dry.

These are the results of his practice in the past few days.

Not only did I draw Konoe Lianghua, but I also drew a lot of scenery in Beiyijuku Academy.

There are about seven or eight pieces in total.

However, the works used for these exercises are of course not refined, they can be regarded as half-drafts, and in fact, it doesn't take much time.

This is also of course.

After all, it's just a draft for practice, if he spends more time refining it, then he really won't be able to participate in the Four Seasons Exhibition of the New Century Art Association.

Today is already February [-]rd, and there are only six days before the official opening of February [-]th.

And his condition has finally stabilized.
This reassured Dong Yesi.

Anyway, the level that this stupid system forcibly improves can be familiarized through repeated practice.

As for the others.
Dong Yesi can't control too much for the time being.

This time he didn't ask Miyashita Yuki and the others for the canvas.

After all, after these three days, he didn't just rely on money to open the way.

During this time he had already restretched a canvas to his ideal size.

He took the last rough canvas off the easel and mounted his own canvas instead.

After finishing these, Higashino raised his arms, and his face relaxed to lay the ground color layer by layer.

On the other side, Miyashita Yuki, who has been paying attention to this side, watched his movements, his expression had changed from shock at the beginning to a little numbness now.

During the three days since Dongyesi came to Beiyishu Studio, she has been paying attention to these oil paintings drawn by the other party.

It was really shocking at first.

Because the other party just drew the picture casually, adding "billions of details" and "very simple" (higashinosi's original words).

And I am serious about drawing, not daring to be distracted in the slightest
But even so, it is still not as good as Dongyesi's relaxed and casually drawn things.

This made her a little disheartened.

Is my talent that bad?

What shocked Miyashita Yuki even more was Higashinoji's painter.
His painting skills are still improving?

To be honest, when he realized this, Miyashita Yuki didn't even dare to speak.

Can you believe it?
A person who has already drawn very well, he is still improving at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye.

This is simply.
Miyashita Yuki finally understood why Higashinoji could be called a genius.

This speed of progress really smells like a genius - it's a bit shameless!
so envious!So jealous!
But no way!
Miyashita Yuki could only watch as Higashino Division got better and better.

But her troubles are actually more than that.

The fact that Higashino Division repeatedly came and went to the studio of Beiyi School spread quickly throughout the school.

Many people hid outside the studio and looked inside, as if everyone in the studio had turned into giant pandas.

Moreover, Miyashita Yuki noticed that Principal Yoshimine Ryuichi had sneaked over when he went to the toilet.

He seemed to want to pay for the drafts drawn by Higashino, and hang them on the front and back walls of the studio for decoration.

When hearing that number, Miyashita Yuki's eyes almost turned into the shape of a money symbol.

This is too much, right?

It is said that after a painter becomes famous, he can easily gain both fame and fortune.

But Dong Yesi is too famous and rich, right?
That's just a draft.

Anyway, it's been a few days.

Miyashita Yuki really felt the impact of the three views.

Higashino Division is always beyond her expectations.

What comforted Miyashita Yuki a little was that this Higashino senior was actually quite talkative.

When she was painting her own work the day before yesterday, the other party actually came over to take a look and pointed out the mistake.

Although she said 'Why are you so stupid? ''This kind of low-level mistake should not be made, hey, you are really stupid. '. These words may not sound pleasant.

But Miyashita Yuki could hear that most of Higashinoji's words were just teasing.

This made many other young girls in the studio go to each other for advice whenever they had the opportunity.

The Higashino senior basically smiled and pointed out one by one, and he never meant to be impatient.

At this time, Miyashita Yuki was a little curious again when he saw Higashinoji started to paint a new oil painting.

After Higashinoji had been painting for about two hours, when he went to change the water at the sink, Miyashita Yuki took a peek at the content of his painting.

But at a glance, Miyashita Yuki was a little surprised.

Because Higashino has obviously been drawing for more than two hours, but the overall picture still only stays in the draft.

That is to say, there is only one clear outline on the canvas.

This surprised Miyashita Yuki a little.

We must know that when Dong Yesi is painting these days, he can draw the overall draft of the oil painting in two or three hours
But this time. Why is it so slow?
It's not like the other party's style at all.

Miyashita Yuki was a little confused.

Could it be that Higashinoji was a little tired after working for several days?
She was just about to take a closer look, but Dong Yesi slapped her on the head the next second.

"what are you doing?"

Higashino gave her a funny look.

He just went to change a bucket of water, and then he saw Miyashita Yuki poking his head in front of his oil painting.

"Uh, nothing. Higashino-senpai."

Miyashita coughed twice from the trunk, her pink lips moved, and replied.

"It's fine." Higashinosi sat down again with a bucket in his hand. At the same time, he picked up the brush, rolled up the paint, and painted his expression on the canvas with ease.

Seeing him like this, Miyashita retreated obediently from the tree to the other side.

It took me a while before I was about to ask him why he was drawing so slowly all of a sudden.

But before she could open her mouth, Konoe Lianghua on the other side looked over curiously: "Asi, isn't this the work you want to participate in the Four Seasons Art Exhibition?"

"Yeah." Higashino replied with a smile, "I'm not satisfied with the one at home, and I'm only redrawing it now after practicing."

"... Is there enough time? Isn't it only six days?"

Konoe Lianghua was a little worried.

"I'm not sure, it depends on the situation." Higashinosi said honestly.

To draw an oil painting in six days, this time must be very rushed.

But even so, Higashino didn't want to put his unpainted stuff on the exhibition.

There's really no other way, so let's postpone it for another two days.
At least he thought so.

Beside Konoe Suzuka and Higashinoji, Miyashita Yuki who overheard this conversation had a surprised expression.

Looking at Higashino Division as if looking at an alien.

As a senior oil painting lover, Yuki Miyashita knew of the Four Seasons Painting Exhibition held by the New Century Art Association on February [-]th.

The Four Seasons Art Exhibition is an exhibition that many professional painters participate in.

She has always been looking forward to the works on the exhibition.

However.
Higashinoji's works will be exhibited at the Four Seasons Exhibition?
Miyashita Yuki swallowed.

That kind of place is not like their Beiyishu studio, it is a real professional painter's exhibition.

Higashino Si is clearly two years older than her.

Can you already wrestle with a group of professional painters?

Is this not an alien?
It seems to have the same feeling as Miyashita Yuki.

Konoe Liangka also blinked her watery eyes enviously: "I really envy Asi, who can participate in exhibitions like the Four Seasons Exhibition."

"There's nothing to be envious of." Higashinosi replied cheerfully while rolling the paint with a brush: "Don't worry, you can do it too, it's not difficult."

"." Yuki Miyashita.

That's still... quite difficult.

Just becoming a member of the New Century Art Association has to go through a lot of tests, right?

And let your own level reach the level of exhibitors.
When will we have to wait?
Anyway, Miyashita Yuki couldn't understand the thoughts of a manga genius and oil painting genius like Higashinoji.

She is just an ordinary little girl.
But she also figured it out.

Higashinoji's painting is going to be exhibited in the exhibition.

Since it is an oil painting in the exhibition, of course it can't be just like the previous two days, just draw a picture and deal with it.

Of course, it still takes a lot of time to carve.

She probably understood and kept an eye on it.

I want to wait and see what the finished painting will look like after Higashinoji puts out all his strength.

This is an exhibit!
At the same time, on the other side, the Uesugi Art Association.

As the president of the Uesugi Art Association, Yoshihiro Asakura can clearly feel the difference in the atmosphere in the association.

Many painters who were originally from the New Century Association and now transferred to the Uesugi Art Association have finished finishing their works.

The theme of their exhibition is the change of seasons, and to put it bluntly, it is also the four seasons.

This can be regarded as the sharp contrast with the New Century Art Association next door.

No one will let anyone.

But to be honest, Asakura Yoshihiro actually has more confidence in himself.

Before that, many registered members of New Century Art Association transferred to Uesugi Art Association.

Coupled with the fact that the Uesugi Art Association has developed well, this has led to the overall strength of the New Century Art Association being much weaker than them.

The Four Seasons Exhibition is just the beginning.

In the future, Yoshihiro Asakura will continue to stick to the time of the other party, holding the exhibition on the same date as the New Century Art Association.

Not only the exhibition, but also the publication of the exhibition's art collection and the publication of the paintings of the members of the association. These must be head-to-head with the other party and take the initiative to meet them.

Some people may feel that this behavior is a bit detrimental to others.

After all, the two major art associations mix together and fight, which is not beneficial to each other.

But in fact, Asakura Yoshihiro wanted this effect.

In this way, he wants the New Century Art Association to squeeze out the position of the two major art associations in Tokyo.

Through these various aspects, little by little accumulation, the influence of the New Century Art Association in the traditional painting circle is gradually weakened.

That's what he thought.

Don't think it's impossible.

After all, behind the Uesugi Art Association is the giant publishing house Iwazuki Publishing House.

On the surface, it seemed that the two of them were fighting out of nowhere.

But in fact, this is also a struggle between Yanzhu Publishing House on their side and Fushima Publishing House standing behind the New Century Association.

Thinking of this, Asakura Yoshihiro couldn't help turning his head and asked, "How is it? Have you found the latest oil painting by Higashinoji from the New Century Association? Do you understand his current level?"

As the honorary vice-chairman of the New Century Art Association, Higashino, of course, couldn't ignore it, so he specially asked someone to help check his level.

The man who lives in the same room as Asakura Yoshihiro is named Kashiwagi Ryuhei, who is the vice president of the Uesugi Art Association.

At the request of Asakura Yoshihiro, he carefully searched for Higashinoji's oil paintings.

But
"I don't have any clue here, President Asakura."

Kashiwagi Ryuhei couldn't help shaking his head, but actually he was a little dazed in his heart.

Because in his opinion, it shouldn't be difficult to just find Higashinoji's recent oil paintings.

After all, Higashino Division can be regarded as a famous celebrity.

The oil paintings he painted, even the works that he painted should be found on the Internet or in newspapers.

But the actual situation is that, except for the two Tokyo-themed oil paintings at the Tokyo National Youth Awards two years ago, and the "Summer Is Over" oil painting on the Art Creation Awards jointly held by the five major art academies in Tokyo
Higashino's works are like disappearing into the sea, and there is no trace at all.

Even if he read the old newspapers from before, he even asked other people to inquire about the situation of Dong Yesi at that time. But he still knew nothing about the other party.

but
"Even if you can't find it, it shouldn't matter much, Chairman Asakura."

Kashiwagi Ryuhei expressed his thoughts: "Isn't Higashinoji just a manga artist? His manga works are really good, I admit that, but oil painting and manga are two different concepts."

He was not wrong about that.

It cannot be said that oil painting and manga are completely unrelated, but oil painting is obviously more demanding in terms of techniques.

So Kashiwagi Ryuhei really didn't worry much about Higashinoji's works.

His two paintings of "Tokyo" are indeed very good. I heard that some collectors bought them at a high price afterwards.
But that's about it.

After all, this was already two years ago.

Higashino Division has always been specialized in manga, and no one can tell whether his level has improved or regressed until now.

So Kashiwagi Ryuhei really didn't care much about Higashinoji's level.

As he said that, Yoshihiro Asakura on the other side shook his head.

Indeed, if Kashiwagi Ryuhei said so, Higashino Division is really not very noteworthy.

But Yoshihiro Asakura has always been a detail-oriented person.

If you can press the opponent to death with ten points of force, you will use twelve points of force-there is no idea that the villain underestimates the enemy at all.

Uncertain factors like Higashino Division happened to be what he cared most about.

"It can't be like in some TV dramas, two years later, a genius will suddenly come up with a very good oil painting, right?"

Hiroto Asakura couldn't help muttering to himself.

　Thank you Huanhuo for your reward!Thank you so much!Thanks for the rewards of The Right to Silence, Yi Eternal Yi, Summer Home, and Fate Qiansheng!Thank you so much!
