Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

Ouyang Cen was very curious about Mrs. Xu, but she had already passed away, so it would be impolite and meaningless to ask about her life.

Not at risk, you go and close the door, Ouyang Cen ordered.

OK.

Zhou Buji did so immediately.

Liu Man felt that Ouyang Cen would probably say something about the calligraphy exhibition next, for fear of being overheard, and it turned out to be the case.

Ouyang Cen said that he was suddenly called to a meeting by the Calligraphy Association in the afternoon, so he didn't pick up the plane. The content of the meeting is naturally related to the calligraphy exhibition that will be held tomorrow, which can be regarded as an advance briefing meeting.

The advantage of having a calligrapher as a teacher is that Liu Man can know in advance who the five judges are.

The five people are experts in running script, cursive script, official script, seal script and regular script.

Ouyang Cen was originally invited to be a judge of cursive script, but because his apprentice Zhou Buyi participated in the exhibition, he declined the invitation to avoid suspicion.

The first four judges are all old acquaintances of Su Yi. When Ouyang Cen mentioned the fifth regular script judge, he paused for a moment with complicated eyes, Certain script, they found Su Xuezhen.

Su Yi's expression changed immediately. He stopped laughing, and his sitting posture was no longer leisurely. He slapped the chair handle hard and scolded, Why did he get selected this year?

Among the younger generation, Su Xuezhen has made the most outstanding achievements in regular script. At the end of last year, he also joined the Calligraphy Association. The young Ouyang Cen said was younger than him and Su Yi. Ten year olds. Being a member of the National Calligraphy Association means that this person can be called a true calligrapher, and the value of his works will also increase.

Su Yi is also a member of the association.

Su Xuezhen's regular script works are now very valuable for collection and are highly sought after by investors. He also established a Xizhen Academy last year to imitate ancient academies and teach calligraphy and literature.

Su Yi mocked, It's all hype.

At his age and position, he is very indifferent to things outside of himself, he doesn't care whether anyone buys his works, he writes, pays more attention to the senses, entertains himself, and is happy.

But now everything in this society is based on money, and the calligraphy circle is no exception. To evaluate the level of a calligrapher, we often look at how much he sells for a single calligraphy.

You still have prejudices against him. Leaving aside what he has done, his regular script is your true biography. Not only that, he has added his own understanding on your basis, which is similar to yours in appearance and meaning. To be honest, the writing is really good, but I still prefer your regular script.

Ouyang Cen always felt that Su Xuezhen's works were almost lacking and not perfect.

Su Yi didn't take it seriously, No matter how good his handwriting is, it can't make up for his lack of personality. He has nothing to do with me.

It has nothing to do with you, but your little apprentice will face him tomorrow.

It's different now than it was thirty years ago, Su Yi snorted coldly, I'm just watching here, I think he dares to play tricks under my nose again.

Liu Man could barely hear the conversation between the two old people. She could barely guess that Su Xuezhen should have been Professor Su's apprentice.

Zhou Buyi couldn’t understand it either. In his opinion, Su Xuezhen was a famous calligrapher. His calligraphy level was unquestionable. The Xizhen Academy he ran had a high reputation in the ancient capital. Long queues, very hot.

So, thirty years ago, what happened?

Sending away Ouyang Cen's master and apprentice, Su Yi thought twice, and told Liu Man the cause and effect.

Indeed, as Liu Man guessed, Su Xuezhen was Su Yi's apprentice, but he had already been kicked out by Su Yi 30 years ago, and both of them were surnamed Su, so they were slightly related by blood. They can be regarded as Su Yi's particularly distant relatives, sharing a family tree.

Things have to start from thirty-four years ago. At that time, the middle-aged Su Yi was already an accomplished calligrapher, he had already become a professor at Capital University, and he had already accepted his first apprentice——Fang Huaiyuan.

And Su Xuezhen is just an ordinary freshman in Capital University. He took Su Yi's calligraphy class. When Su Yi checked the students' homework, he found Su Xuezhen's characters. He felt that he had potential, and he had the same surname. Kindly, I called him to the office alone, and the process of Su Xuezhen's apprenticeship was very similar to that of Liu Man.

After becoming masters and apprentices, the two discovered that they were distant relatives. A branch of the Su family moved to the northwest hundreds of years ago. Su Yi lamented the fate of God and taught Su Xuezhen more carefully.

At that time, Su Yi had only two apprentices, Fang Huaiyuan was seven years older than Su Xuezhen, and entered the school earlier, so Su Xuezhen naturally called him senior brother. As a senior brother, Fang Huaiyuan cared for Su Xuezhen very much. The teacher was busy with work. He often answered Su Xuezhen's questions, and also copied his works to Su Xuezhen. Su Xuezhen admired and appreciated him very much.

It looks like a harmonious picture of brothers and sisters.

After four years in this way, the National Calligraphy and Seal Cutting Works Exhibition, which is held every four years, began to register. There is a customary rule in the calligraphy world that a master can only send one apprentice to participate in this calligraphy exhibition.

Both Fang Huaiyuan and Su Xuezhen were excellent students. Su Yi hesitated again and again and chose to submit Fang Huaiyuan's work. He told Su Xuezhen the old-fashioned story of Kong Ru letting Li, and he said that Fang Huaiyuan was by his side. After studying calligraphy for seven years and working hard, it's time to graduate. He said that Su Xuezhen is still young, and he will have a chance in four years.

Su Xuezhen smiled on the surface and said it was okay.

But I was not convinced in my heart.

Fang Huaiyuan carefully prepared his works for the exhibition one month in advance, and he also chose regular script.

Back then, there were no courier companies, and you had to go to the post office to send packages.

Fang Huaiyuan was already working at that time, staying at Capital University to do administrative work, and his working hours coincided with those of the post office.

Su Xuezhen offered to help him run errands and send parcels.

Fang Huaiyuan trusted him and entrusted him with his writing.

However, Su Xuezhen did one thing, and Su Yi still can't forgive him for his immorality. He replaced Fang Huaiyuan's works with his regular script works.

When Su Yi and Fang Huaiyuan knew about it, Su Xuezhen's work had already passed the preliminary evaluation and was shortlisted for the exhibition.

In front of Fang Huaiyuan, Su Yi angrily scolded Su Xuezhen for doing this. Su Xuezhen plausibly said, Obviously my talent is higher than that of my senior brother, but because I was young and entered the teacher late, I was deprived of the qualification to participate in the exhibition. It's not fair to me! Some people who rely on self-study and don't even have a teacher can sign up smoothly, why can't I? If I knew this, I might as well not ask for a teacher!

Su Yi's violent temper immediately exploded, and he wanted to beat him.

Fang Huaiyuan quickly grabbed him,

Su Yi pointed at Su Xuezhen angrily and said, Get lost, from now on, I don't have you as an apprentice.
