Monster Apartment

Watching Xie Zhi's car drive away, Gu Bai began to think about whether he should also find a time to take the driver's license test and buy a car by the way.

With some savings in his pocket, he can buy a small car worth 10,000+.

Gu Bai lowered his head, while sending the photo of Jade that he just took to his father, he started to check the car.

He read a bunch of car quotes and reviews, and checked the latest gas prices and maintenance costs. Finally, he put down his phone and decided to buy a small eDonkey.

Driving by yourself is worse than taking the subway. After all, the elevated highway in S City is often jammed to the point that it can make people's bladders explode.

Restrictions are of no use.

The subway is better, cheap and convenient without traffic jams, although a bit crowded.

Gu Bai decided to buy a small eDonkey in these two days, and by the way, he also placed an order for a small home printer that he had been thinking about for a long time.

With the small eDonkey, at least it is much more convenient to go to and from the subway station and the community, without having to walk across with your legs.

This time it was not very convenient to go back and forth to work, Gu Bai had to transfer to the subway twice and then take the bus four stops.

Gu Bai got off the bus and rode a shared bicycle, followed the navigation app to find the place, and when he finally found the place, he was already 10 minutes late from the agreed ten o'clock.

Gu Bai, who left the house at eight o'clock, sighed. Even though he had explained the situation in the group, the first thing he did when he saw the seniors and the boss was still to apologize.

The boss had drawn up the contract a long time ago. After correcting the amount of remuneration according to the negotiation result, the boss took the contract that the brothers had signed and took them to see the wall that needed to be painted.

There are three walls in total.

The left and right sides of the escalator add up to about 45 square meters, excluding the dome, and facing the escalator is a hanging advertising screen, which will be the advertisements of some exhibits in the museum exhibition hall.

In addition, there is another independent wall, which can be seen after getting on the escalator. It is three meters wide and two meters high, and it is used to divert the crowd.

Logically speaking, this wall should be the stadium LOGO wall, but because in essence, stepping on the escalator is equivalent to stepping into the venue, so the venue LOGO is directly placed at the entrance below the escalator.

Because of the need to protect the collection of cultural relics in the museum exhibition hall, most of the lighting is specially designed and selected, and most of the exhibition halls are dim.

And for different collections, different colors and different brightness lights will be used to fully display the collections.

"So, in order to allow tourists to have a relatively comfortable transition period, in the elevator section, the brightness of the lights we use will be dimmed." The person in charge who was with the boss explained.

This means that when they design murals, they must take the lighting into consideration.

In the final analysis, it is still serving tourists. The most important thing to consider is not the quality level, style and picture requirements of the murals, but the customer experience.

To gain a foothold in S City, word of mouth is a very important part.

In essence, it is the true nature of a businessman. The brother in charge said that this is completely understandable: "We can give you the design draft required by the light at that time."

The person in charge showed a smile and continued to explain to them.

Gu Bai followed behind the seniors, holding the camera and looking for an angle to shoot hard.

The person in charge of this exhibition hall is very good, and they also vacated a studio for them. There is a small cubicle in the studio, and the lights that the museum will install in the elevator are installed in it.

It's rather dim, but it's enough for this professional team who only need to adjust the color difference under the light to control the color difference and the lighting display effect.

When the person in charge and the boss left, the stern-faced and serious seniors let themselves go for a moment, and all turned their heads to look at the little junior who was sorting out the photos with his head bowed.

As soon as Gu Bai raised his head, he found that he was surrounded by senior brothers, and the bag on his back was also picked up.

Gu Bai was startled, and couldn't help taking a step back.

The fat senior brother carried Gu Bai's bag, and said happily, "Where's the pudding, where's the pudding?"

Gu Bai heaved a sigh of relief and replied, "It's in the second zippered bag."

The brothers divided the pudding and sat together on the floor in this studio with no tables except the workbench.

Just when Gu Bai thought they were going to start thinking about how to make a design, and he had already taken out his notebook, he heard the fat senior brother eating pudding, and asked, "Has our Xiaobai grown taller?"

The other three senior brothers nodded in unison: "I've grown a lot taller, and my secondary growth has slowed down. It seems that going out for a trip is rewarding."

Holding the pen and notebook, Gu Bai was stunned for a while, and couldn't help touching his head.

He really didn't notice the change in his height.

The brothers took out the tape measure from the drawer under the workbench and measured it for Gu Bai.

"Oh!" Fat Senior Brother exclaimed, "It has grown six centimeters!"

"From my shoulders to my chin."

"It's so enviable." Fat senior brother patted his belly, "It's nice to be young."

"I'm jealous, I'm jealous that you got up to cook something in the middle of the night last night."

Fat senior brother shook his head: "That's a treasure sent by Gu Xiaobai! It won't be fresh after a long time, so don't eat it and waste it."

Gu Bai listened to the chattering of the senior brothers, and couldn't help squinting his eyes and laughing.

He still likes such excitement, and after experiencing Madam Spirit Snake's all-round and motherly care, he is even more greedy for this kind of warmth unique to human beings.

It's a pity that his father can't count on it.

Gu Bai thought regretfully.

Maybe his father would find him a stepmother to improve the situation a little.

But with Dad's appearance... No matter in terms of appearance or family background, I'm afraid no girl will have the courage to stand in front of him.

After all, his father always has a vicious expression of wanting to eat people, and he really can't blame others for being regarded as a villain and a bad guy.

The senior brother in charge ate the pudding contentedly, and then said with a straight face: "That's enough, let's finish eating and get down to business. With this workload, we can finish it a few days earlier if we work harder for a one-month construction period."

When it came to business, the brothers restrained a little, ate the pudding in a few mouthfuls, and began to discuss.

Here, the one who is especially good at design is the brother in charge.

The theme of myths and legends has actually been painted badly as early as 800 years ago. There are so many folklore. Many times when I am on business trips for some government departments to do projects, I will collect some local cultural folk customs and hidden legends that are not known to others.

Gu Bai hasn't done these things yet, and his understanding of myths and legends is still limited to textbooks and some things that the teacher casually mentioned.

Experience and insight are flaws of every young person.

That's why the sliver of light that slips through the hands of the greats and the old-timers can be of great benefit to the novice climbing up.

Gu Bai lamented that he still had too little knowledge, while frantically jotting down notes in his little notebook.

"Gu Xiaobai, do you have any ideas?" Brother asked.

Gu Bai looked at this and then that, although he was surrounded by familiar people, Gu Bai was still not used to being so concerned.

He pursed his lips, finally took a deep breath, nodded slightly, and whispered: "Yes."

The brothers suddenly became interested: "Tell me."

For a purely commercial project like this, the old fritters are basically discussing with their feet.

The reason why they are so calm is that they know very well what the business needs are, so most of the ideas they put forward are allusions.

The reason is simple, because most Chinese people are familiar with these stories.

For example, Kuafu Chasing the Sun, after painting it, even a child can point to the painting and say to their parents: "Mom, I know this, it's Kuafu Chasing the Sun."

You don’t need to have any literacy at all, and people will immediately understand the content of this painting, so that people won’t be unable to understand it at all and feel “wow, it’s amazing, but I can’t understand it” and then turn their heads and leave.

When someone invites you to paint, the money must be spent well.

For example, the labyrinth wall and 3D wall of the S City Art Expo Center, which attracted a lot of attention at the beginning, played their due value and attracted a large number of tourists to watch and take photos, which brought great excitement to the entire Art Expo Center. flow.

——Although part of it is due to Zhai Liangjun, the mural itself is indeed well painted.

Another example is the Grassland Art Exhibition, which is different in terms of needs. The fundamental requirement for the exhibition to invite them to do murals is to make the entire exhibition hall more integrated and echo each other.

Let’s talk about the current one. The needs of this project at the entrance of the museum are firstly the transition of light, secondly, it can calm people down, and thirdly, it is to arouse people’s interest.

Most people will suddenly feel calm when they enter a dark and empty environment, and what museums need is this calmness. It would be better if the calmness can also arouse people's interest and exploration.

To put it simply, the paintings here must first be able to match the dim light and make people feel calm.

Secondly, the picture should be interesting and eye-catching, and at the same time, it should be easy to understand and should not be too advanced.

Finally, there must be a factor that can arouse people's appetite and desire for exploration-for example, some details that can be noticed by people with certain cultural literacy, so that they can see, recognize, speak out, and arouse the attention of others. curious.

Entering the exhibition hall with this curiosity, you have to be more involved in watching the exhibition, and the overall atmosphere in the exhibition hall will be much better.

Although most of the opening of the museum is to collect some ticket money, but in fact, there are so many thoughts in it that everyone can learn more about the stories behind each cultural relic and collection.

——At least don't just leave after looking at it with a confused face.

You must know that every pattern and every crack in those cultural relics collections has many stories hidden behind them.

I hope you can hear their stories.

For those who carefully maintain and protect these things, such careful thinking is probably their highest desire for the public.

Gu Bai listened to the conception of his seniors, which has completely included the two points of calming and easy-to-understand pictures.

The most difficult point is how to arouse the curiosity of tourists.

After listening to the seniors taking the information bag given to them by the person in charge and analyzing the project requirements this time, Gu Bai hesitated for a moment, but under the encouraging gaze of the seniors, he expressed his thoughts: "You all know Xuanwu, right? "

……

It was three o'clock in the afternoon when the discussion ended, and Gu Bai put his notebook on his back and put on his backpack again.

The notebook contains some opinions and suggestions from the seniors, and Gu Bai, like the seniors, everyone went back to produce a design draft. The design draft was given three days, and it was handed over to the person in charge after three days. The wall is open.

Gu Bai's idea was not directly adopted, probably because it was the first time even they had heard of the showy operation of Aurora and human reincarnation.

But in order not to dampen Gu Bai's enthusiasm, they still asked Gu Bai to publish a design draft after they each put forward their suggestions.

Naturally, Gu Bai knew that his seniors were taking care of him, so he didn't have any objections. He saw a bookstore on the way home with his bag on his back, and he ran in to pick up the five best-selling romance novels from the boss, and threw them away. Put it into the bag and carried it back happily.

Mr. Xie should have finished reading those at home, and he should be very happy to bring a few new ones home.

Gu Bai happily returned home with the book in his pocket.

Before going home, he knocked on the door and asked Si Yiming what Uncle Yu's body was.

After getting the answer and inviting Mr. Si to eat at home today, Gu Bai put the books in the bag into the small bookcase in the living room, took off his coat and went up to the second floor.

He didn't plan to draw the design draft over there today, but planned to finish the drawing that Uncle Yu wanted first.

Ever since he knew that the evil sprites were the dark lacquers he saw when he came out of his body at night, Gu Bai was 12 vigilant about this thing.

Uncle Yu came to him and told him that the evil spirits had become more and more serious recently and he was going to be unable to handle it anymore. In Gu Bai's eyes, it was a matter of life and death, and it could not be postponed or sloppy.

After Uncle Yu left yesterday, he made a draft. This draft was drawn by Gu Bai casually. It was pure fantasy without any reference.

A piece of land can be understood as a landscape painting.

What is usually in a landscape painting?

The sky, the earth, the water, the green grass, the lush trees and the mountains in the distance.

Gu Bai used his imagination freely, and today after finishing the draft, he was ready to start coloring.

If the soil is fertile black soil, with green grass and flowers, a stream is like a silver light belt, pouring down from the mountains.

There are mountains in the distance, and behind the mountains, there is an extremely tall tree that reaches into the sky.

Gu Bai lowered his head to dip the paint, dipped the palette in water and wiped it, and once painted on the tree trunk, he immediately took back the paintbrush in his hand.

He looked down at the pen in his hand, and was taken aback.

"Why is it stained purple..." Gu Bai muttered softly, washed off the color on the pen, and replaced it with a normal brown.

After a few strokes of brown, he couldn't see anything wrong.

The trunk of this tree should be purple.

Gu Bai thought.

He was in a daze for two seconds because of this idea, holding a paintbrush and buttoning the palette, looking at the trees that went straight into the sky in the picture, he didn't know how to start.

and many more.

Gu Bai gestured to the tree in the painting.

Why is this tree so tall behind the mountains?

Gu Bai looked at the painting he had drawn with his own hands in confusion, and couldn't remember why he drew such a tree yesterday.

He was stunned for a while, feeling that something must be wrong.

Gu Bai pondered for a long time, then he simply put down the paintbrush and palette in his hands, and hurriedly ran to find the beast in the town building.

The author has something to say: Gu Bai frowned, realizing that this matter is not simple!
