Open business day-to-day

Chapter 224 The Genius Girl

The time has entered the second half of July, and the promotion of Weiyang Weibo is in full swing. Currently, the number of Weibo registrations has reached more than 320 million.

With more than 300 million registrations, Weiyang Weibo also has a certain momentum, especially in the field of online literature, which is getting more and more popular among readers and online writers.

With the intensification of publicity, more and more authors joined the publicity, and its registration volume is also rising steadily.

From the beginning, it increased by [-] to [-] per day, to [-] to [-], and now the number of registered people has increased by more than [-] per day. Gradually, it has almost become the standard for online writers on major websites, and it has become a way for them to communicate with readers. As a mainstream social tool, more and more readers know Weiyang Weibo.

Even on some news websites, in remote corners, there are some sporadic reports about Weiyang Weibo, although they still haven't entered the mainstream public's attention, and not many people care about this Weiyang company.

But as the number of registrations increases, and when he breaks through a certain volume, he will gradually enter the public's field of vision and attract more attention and attention.

At this time in Weiyang Technology, Lin Rui had just finished dealing with the matter at hand, stretched his waist, stretched his legs and feet, left the office and started wandering around the company.

All departments went to inspect it, and the technical department was of course the first choice.

Since Weiyang Weibo was released for more than a month, the technical department has been doing its optimization work, looking for bugs to fix bugs, and doing some micro-innovations.

Fortunately, the scale of users is not too large, and the structure is relatively simple. Except for the authors, they are readers, so that they can calmly have enough time to adjust and optimize according to the feedback and opinions of the background.

After more than a month of polishing, Weiyang Weibo has gradually matured a lot, and the functional modules of each page have become more and more coordinated, and the defects in details have gradually been made up.

However, this is just the beginning. In the future, we will continue to optimize and innovate on this basis, find our own unique features, optimize and polish, and make the user experience better and better.

Chatted with several employees in the technical department, asked about work progress, and cared about the life of the employees. In short, they behaved very close to the people and amiable.

Then came to the territory of the marketing department and the operation department. Now these two departments are working together to promote Weiyang Weibo on a large scale, and the effect is indeed very good.

I chatted with Li Xueming and Liu Wei for a while, and saw that they arranged the promotion plan carefully and detailedly, and made a lot of process deduction. The various process details were arranged in an orderly manner, and the promotion rhythm was also very well grasped.Lin Rui couldn't find fault even if he wanted to. He could only say that it was great to have such a subordinate.

I walked around the company and saw that it was almost ten o'clock in the morning, so let's get off work!

After driving out of the company, I wandered around the road a few times without incident.

The DC area is planned by the city government as the center of culture, education, and art in Los Angeles. There are not many enterprises of all kinds, but the gathering of universities, and the art college of Los Angeles Normal University support the scene, and the artistic atmosphere is quite strong.

All kinds of museums, theaters, concert halls, galleries, music bars, art salons... everything.

The car passed by a block near the Art College of Normal University, Lin Rui's heart moved, and he remembered that there were several guitar stores here.

He himself is a member of the school guitar club, and he has been in it intermittently for more than a year, but he has mastered some basic knowledge and techniques. The technology is amateur-level, but it does not prevent him from being interested in this aspect.

Especially in the past few months, he has read a lot of books on music theory, many of which are about guitar, which has benefited him a lot, mastered a lot of theoretical knowledge, and gained a lot of insight.

His first guitar was an entry-level Yamaha F310 bought when he joined the guitar shop.

The famous Yamaha must have heard of it. The world's top 500 companies are involved in many fields, and each field is outstanding. Of course, the guitar in the musical instrument is also the same.

However, what Lin Rui bought was only a low-end entry-level model, which cost more than 800 yuan, which was too expensive for him to afford at the time.

The general configuration of the plywood piano, the tone is also average, but it is quite durable, this series is still very popular in China.

The guitar was bought for nearly two years, because at that time the money was too small and there were not many choices, so it didn't meet his wishes.

Now that I have a whim, and I don't need a small amount of money, I just want to change to a better one.

As soon as he thought of it, Lin Rui drove in and turned in. Although there were not many people in this street, it seemed quite quiet.There are many shops on both sides of the road, both in decoration and layout are very tasteful, because it is relatively close to the Art College of Normal University, it is still very famous nearby.

The car just drove in and walked a short distance, passing a gallery, and suddenly stopped the car.He saw a hand-painted poster posted on the glass curtain wall of the gallery, which was an admission promotion for the Chinese painting training class.

Lin Rui's heart moved, and he got out of the car. He had chosen his main direction in painting, which was Chinese painting.

Like oil painting and comics...Although it is quite good, if you don't regard it as your main business, just try it out.

Especially for oil paintings, sometimes it takes several months to paint a piece of work, which is too time-consuming and energy-consuming. Wouldn’t it be nice to have time to play around!

Besides, he doesn't rely on it for food, it just treats it as a hobby and completes some small tasks by the way, so naturally he doesn't want to spend too much energy on it.

Traditional Chinese painting is different. It is a combination of realism and freehand brushwork. It pursues artistic conception rather than details, and expresses spirit through brush and ink.

Of course, the study of traditional Chinese painting is not a one-day effort, only the combination of meditation and patience can achieve success.

Lin Rui does not pursue this either. It is often said in China that calligraphy and painting are not separated, and he has not let go of calligraphy now. There are many similarities between the two and they can promote each other.

Moreover, Chinese painting not only learns painting, but also learns the self-cultivation skills contained in it. Learning Chinese painting is learning traditional Chinese culture.

From a visual point of view, traditional Chinese painting is relatively majestic, with beautiful artistic conception and high realm. You can feel the inner feelings of the creator from a painting.

Improve self-cultivation, cultivate sentiment, and improve aesthetic ability.

Oil paintings and sketches pay more attention to realism and details, and do not add too much personal thought to them.

Lin Rui has learned a lot of theoretical knowledge about calligraphy and painting in the past few months, but after all, Ye Luzi was born without systematic training, so he doesn't have a solid grasp of this knowledge.

He also planned to find someone to learn calligraphy and painting. Today, he suddenly saw the recruitment advertisement in front of the gallery, so he wanted to go and consult.

This gallery is not small, with two floors. The walls are covered with brush and ink paintings, basically ink and Chinese paintings.

Seeing Lin Rui walking in, well dressed, a service staff immediately greeted him.

"Sir, do you want to see the painting?"

"Did you post the admission advertisement for the Chinese painting training class at the door?" Lin Rui asked.

The waitress named Xiao Lu was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied with a smile: "Yes, the owner of our gallery is a professor of traditional Chinese painting at the Normal University. She is the one who organizes this training class. Do you want to sign up, sir?"

Lin Rui thought it was a common training class, an ordinary training teacher, but he didn't expect it to be run by a professor from the Normal University, a professional in the major.

He asked curiously: "Your boss is a professor at Normal University, will she teach in person?"

Xiao Lu replied with a smile: "She will teach some in person. Of course, her students will also come to work part-time for some basic parts, but they are all graduate students, so the level will definitely be fine."

Lin Rui nodded. He didn't expect all of them to be taught by professors, which was unrealistic.

Even if he is a student of the Normal University, he must have much better foundation than him, so it is still worth applying.

Now that I made up my mind, I began to consult more details.

This Chinese painting training class is actually an advanced class and only recruits people with a certain foundation.

Those who have zero foundation and have not yet started are not within the scope of enrollment.

In fact, this foundation or introduction is simple and simple, and it is complicated and complicated.

Adults learn to draw from copying. Copying is like practicing calligraphy on a copybook. First, slowly practice the hand feeling, so that you can have a preliminary feeling for painting. The grasp of lines is just a step away from the beginning. Not far away, talent is very important in this area.

This training class lasts for half a year, with one class per week, about two hours, in the morning or afternoon.

Excluding some holidays, half a year seems to be a long time, but in fact, there are more than 20 classes in one period, and only four or five classes in a month.

This made Lin Rui quite satisfied. He had the task of practicing calligraphy and painting for ten hours every month, which was completed by taking classes here.

It’s just that the fee is really not cheap. The one-term tuition fee is 24. There are only [-] classes in total, and each class costs an average of [-]. This is not a one-on-one private tutoring, but a class of students studying together, which is more expensive than hiring a private tutor in the gym Also expensive.

Lin Rui wasn't short of the money. After all, the professor of Normal University had a strong brand and his level was not much worse. He would definitely learn a lot, so he signed up directly.

After paying the fee and completing the formalities, I was told that the class will officially start next week.So far, the training class has recruited more than 30 students, all of whom have a certain foundation like him, lack professional guidance, and want to learn more.

After Lin Rui finished his work, he didn't go out of the gallery directly, but admired the paintings on the wall by himself.

There are landscapes, figures, silk and bamboo vegetation, insects and fish, birds and beasts, and a dazzling array of paintings hang all over the gallery.

Lin Rui walked slowly and admired, and if he met someone who was close to his eyes, he would look at it for a while.

Suddenly, I saw a landscape painting, with overlapping mountains, shrouded in clouds and mist, and stacked trees, dense and orderly, suitable for dry and wet.

The painting style is green and beautiful, with vigor and vigor in the graceful, graceful and vigorous charm.

There is also a signature "Jingxian" at the back.

Lin Rui was a little sensitive about this pseudonym. The very pure and beautiful girl he had molested or flirted with was Zhang Jingxian, who was also from the Art College of Normal University.

I just don't know what is the relationship with the person on the signature, maybe it is the same person.

Lin Rui was surprised when he thought about it, and then carefully looked at the painting in front of him.

This painting is quite large, belonging to the middle hall painting, with a full opening of six feet.

The color is fresh and elegant, but also interesting. The tall and majestic mountains overlap one another, just like being in a fairyland, and the green trees and plants and purple hyacinth flowers are dotted among them, which does not feel awkward at all, but has a particularly harmonious atmosphere. Feel.

There are several small bamboo pavilions on the hillside of the mountain, expressing a kind of leisure and happiness away from world disputes.

There is a kind of leisure and tranquility of "picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and seeing Nanshan leisurely", just like being in a fairyland.

People can feel the three-dimensionality of the mountain, majestic and high, and the white color below is also very well processed, giving people an imagination, is it a river or a cloud?
It can give people a particularly comfortable feeling at a glance.

Seeing that Lin Rui was very concerned about this painting, Xiao Lu walked over and said with a smile, "What do you think of this painting, Mr. Lin?"

Lin Rui's appreciation level of Chinese painting can only be said to be average, and he said vaguely: "Well, although the level is still a bit green, and some details are not handled perfectly, it gives people a very spiritual feeling, which is a very good one. painting."

Xiao Lu praised: "Mr. Lin, you are right. The author of this painting is just 19 years old this year. She is a famous talented girl painter from the Art College of Normal University. It’s even more unique.”

"I was admitted to the Painting Department of the Academy of Art at the age of 16. Now that I am just a junior, our boss has decided to accept her as his graduate student a year in advance. Maybe she will come to give you two classes in the future."

"This is her first official work, and it is stored here for display."

Lin Rui was very surprised, not only surprised by his talent, but also surprised that his guess might be true.

Recalling Zhang Jingxian's appearance in my impression, her tranquil temperament, her extremely pure appearance, it is indeed like walking out of a painting, maybe it is really her.

This made Lin Rui interested in the painting.Turning to ask: "Since the painting is displayed in the gallery, will this painting be sold?"

Xiao Lu was stunned for a moment. This painting was Zhang Jingxian's first official work, and it took a lot of effort to complete it. She originally wanted to put it away by herself and keep it as a souvenir.

As a result, the female owner of the gallery, Professor Fan, who majored in traditional Chinese painting at the Normal University, valued her and wanted to accept her as a disciple. Seeing that her painting was very inspirational, she asked her to show it in the gallery, which was also a test of the market, for the future. paving the way for publicity campaigns.

After all, in these days, people pay attention to the smell of wine and are afraid of deep alleys. It is necessary to become famous as soon as possible. If a painter wants to stand out, strength is one aspect, and fame is also very important. It is not so easy for a talented girl painter to stand on his feet.

Xiao Lu opened his mouth and wanted to say, "Sell it!"

But thinking about Zhang Jingxian's advice to her, this is her first official work, and if she wants to keep it as a souvenir, she is not willing to sell it at all.

It's just that the paintings are for sale when they are hung in the gallery, and she doesn't want to refuse directly, thinking that Zhang Jingxian is now a new student with little reputation, even if it is a large painting with a full opening of six feet, the market price is as high as two three thousand.

She directly offered a price that she thought Lin Rui would not accept, "[-]."
