Chapter 916 See You in Court
“I strongly suggest that in the future, we should use this new and convenient method to let more people come into contact with our traditional art,” said a netizen. “My child is in the third grade of primary school and has just seen this painting. Because he likes it, he is especially serious in searching for relevant knowledge.”
“People in the modern world are mostly occupied with work. After work, they have to accompany their children in doing homework and study. On weekends, they even have to bring them to various interest classes and take time to entertain them. They also have to go pay visits to both their paternal and maternal parents. It is really difficult to find the time to take their children to art exhibitions. Moreover, a place like an art exhibition is very quiet. The emotions of a child are not stable yet, so they might cry easily. In such a quiet place, not only would they disturb others, but they would also be easily looked down upon. I really hope that there would be more platforms like this so that we don’t have to go to an art exhibition specifically. We can come into contact with it at any time in our daily lives.”
“I feel that this painter should at least make up for his language. Whether it’s displaying traditional Chinese paintings in the form of the opening credits or expressing the opening credits in the form of traditional Chinese paintings, the two complement each other, and there’s nothing to tarnish traditional art. Why wouldn’t it be good?”
Many netizens, through rational analysis, felt that this was right.
Some netizens directly pointed out that Shan Zhaowei was boring as hell.
There were also people who went to search for information about Shan Zhaowei on the internet.
They also saw his past works.
“He’s only painted a few paintings in total. It must have been tough on him to have the face to list out a few representative works. I went to search, and I just wanted to ask, with this level of skill, how did he manage to enter the Calligraphy and Painting Association?”
“I went to look too. Other things aside, this is my colleague’s child. He was in junior high when he painted it. In any case, from my point of view, his abilities are just so-so.”
“Wow, don’t say that. This child’s painting is really not bad.”
“Master Shan will say that we are not professionals and don’t understand at all.”
Tan Jinqi followed up and forwarded Tan Mo’s Weibo, he said, “Whether this is against the development of traditional art or whether it is smearing and distorting the national painting, cannot be judged by an individual. If a person says this can’t do and it’s supposed to mean failure, then forgive me for my lack of understanding, but I want to ask, is the calligraphy and painting world already like this? Does one person’s word hold so much weight? And coming from this Teacher
Shan?”
“I don’t know much about the world of calligraphy and painting, so I would like to ask again, what is his status in your social circles? Can he alone judge whether this matter is good or bad? Can he judge whether a person can be called an artist? Can he judge whether a person’s painting is qualified?”
“I would like to ask again, without any evidence, Teacher Shan had pointed out that Tan Jinyi’s painting had been processed by the computer and was different from the original painting. In other words, the original painting cannot be compared to this one. It had been processed and modified by the computer,” Tan said. To say such words without having seen the original painting with your own eyes, Teacher Shan, can you take responsibility for what you did?”
“If you can’t, please apologize. If you can, I’ll see you in court.” Tan Jinqi added, “Also, the official blog of ‘Broken Continent’ has released the original picture without any post-processing. The only difference is that the effect from the camera is better than seeing the original picture with your own eyes. There are still some differences in the colors captured by the camera, and the small details are unable to be fully showcased.”
“Although we have used good equipment to shoot it,” Tan Jinqi said, “In the end, I also saw the voices of the netizens. Now, we are discussing how to do a side exhibition of ‘Broken Continent’. If it goes well, the original painting for the opening will also be exhibited. At that time, everyone can see it with their own eyes. As for how the original painting is, you’ll be able to make your own judgement then.”
Tan Jinsheng forwarded Tan Jinyi’s Weibo post, because Tan Jinqi had forwarded Tan Mo’s post.
So by chance, he made use of both of their Weibo accounts.
“I saw the original painting with my own eyes, so I can responsibly say that the original painting is better than the photos,” Tan Jinsheng said. “Because it’s the truth, I’m not afraid of any criticisms.”
And as the topic of discussion, Tan Jinyi naturally couldn’t just keep quiet and let his eldest brother, second brother, and younger sister rush to defend him.
Tan Jinyi forwarded Tan Jinsheng’s Weibo post.
Because of the word limit, their original posts had to be shortened.
Anyway, leaving only their names just for show was good enough.
Eldest brother and second brother’s could be deleted, but Tan Mo’s had to be kept.
Tan Jinyi: “If my painting has been post-processed, it could only be because of the camera’s pixels that caused some color deviation, as well as the difference in details. I guarantee with my personality that my original painting did not use external help to refine its details. In addition, I drew this painting to use as the opening of the film, and also got the consent and support of the teacher and uncle-master. So, I don’t feel that there is anything wrong with what I did, nor did I smear the meaning of Chinese paintings whatsoever.”
When Tan Jinyi had posted on Weibo, Tan Mo said to them, “This isn’t quite right. I just went to ask. Shan Zhaowei isn’t a famous artist. He can even be said to be a small artist. He’s not someone who has ambitions but cannot satisfy them. Just like the works of his that the netizens found, his level is only that high. Even until now, he hasn’t made much progress.”
“He was able to join the Calligraphy and Painting Association because he was recommended through a favor. There were many members in the association, and he wasn’t one of them, so they didn’t make things difficult for him and let him join.” Tan Mo said, “In the Association, he wasn’t at the core level, and he wasn’t an important member, so he couldn’t get any salary or bonuses from it. But in the local area, he can use his reputation as a member of the Association to participate in some activities, give lectures, and hold small local art exhibitions.”
“Ordinary people really don’t have a high appreciation of paintings. As long as the standard is about the same, the paintings look fairly good. Even if he can’t buy a masterpiece, he can buy some paintings of this level to decorate his room. Therefore, by selling his paintings, he could earn a few thousand yuan per piece. His income is also acceptable.”
“But when all these conditions are put together, no matter how you look at it, he is just an ordinary person. Why did he suddenly jump out and say these words? Moreover, less than a minute after he had finished posting on Weibo, a large number of marketing accounts immediately forwarded it in an overwhelming manner. In a brief period of time, the post’s popularity rapidly increased.”
“It’s easy to contact the marketing accounts. Their main page has their contact details. But does Shan Zhaowei have that much money? For these marketing accounts, the small ones are worth tens of thousands of yuan per post, and the big ones are worth a million yuan per post,” Tan Mo said, “Shan Zhaowei usually sells a painting for thousands of yuan, but he doesn’t have buyers every day.”
