Rebirth of the Nine-Three Era

Yin Yuan received a strange phone call.

"Hello, I am Jiang Shida from the organizer of the Lingnan Emerging Painters Exhibition. That's it. Last time you called to inquire about the exhibition, so I'm informing you now that if you are interested in participating in the exhibition, your The works are sent to the Yangcheng Library, and we have professional painters make on-site assessments to determine whether the works have artistic value and whether they are of a level that can be exhibited in the library."

Jiang Shida said: "All the painters' works will be exhibited in the library for half a month, and then the works will be scored. This includes the public score given by the audience, the expert score given by the experts, and the comprehensive score. Finally, the top three winning works of this exhibition will be selected. , and then select the top ten potential painters' works.

In addition to generous bonuses, the top three winning works will also receive professional guidance from famous painters in the province.Ten potential painters will also receive a certain amount of bonus. One or two painting training sessions will be organized every year, and famous painters from inside and outside the province will be invited to give lectures. "

Yin Yuan said I would send the work over tomorrow.

He went back and told Wanting about this: "I want to send this "Snowscape in Winter Mountain Village" and "Beauty in the Snow" to the exhibition."

Both pictures were framed by him and hung on the living room wall, becoming part of the villa decoration.

Wanting said: "Either give me the painting "Snowy Scenery in a Mountain Village in Winter". The other one is about beauty. I'm afraid I won't be worthy of the title and will be laughed at."

"Who says my wife isn't a beauty? I'm in a hurry with him."

Yin Yuan believed that sending this kind of painting to an exhibition would not have any bad impact.

"It's not a nude painting. My wife's nude painting can only be seen by me, and it will definitely not be exhibited."

Wanting glared at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. When did I promise to paint you a nude? Don't even think about it."

Yin Yuan looked at his son's sleek, delicate, and cute appearance, and said with a smile: "Put Little Fatty on this soft chair, and I will draw a picture for him, and call it "My Little Fatty," okay?" "

Wanting was noncommittal.

At this time, Cheng Bin called him: "The young man who allowed the dog to hurt people yesterday is Director He's son. After criticism and education, he has realized his mistake and compensated the child's medical expenses, so we decided to release him today. Do you have a different opinion?"

Yin Yuan said: "Just teach this kind of person a lesson. As for how to deal with it, you can make the decision."

After all, there is a backend, so you still have to be cautious when handling it.

Cheng Bin asked him: "Are you free now? If so, I will take you to the master's house for tea and play a game of chess with him. You won't suffer a loss if you know him."

Although the figure who once made waves in Jiangming City has retired, his influence is still there.

Yin Yuan said: "Then I will go to the city defense office to pick you up?"

Cheng Bin said, "Just wait for me at the gate of Minghua Middle School."

Yin Yuan said to Wanting: "Honey, this painting can't be finished again. Lao Cheng will take me to visit the retired boss He. I may have dinner at his house."

Wanting said: "When you go to eat with others, you always have to give them some gifts, right? Or give them some local specialties from home?"

Yin Yuan picked up two soft-shelled turtles, several kilograms of winter bamboo shoots and bacon, several kilograms of dried prunes, and a pack of dried peanuts.

Drive to the entrance of Minghua Middle School.

Soon he saw Cheng Bin driving his jeep to meet him.

There is a villa not far from Minghua Middle School, with a wall outside and an iron gate in front.

When the car arrived at the iron gate, Cheng Bin honked the horn. A man inside looked over and saw Cheng Bin and opened the iron gate.

The two parked the car into the small courtyard.

The white-haired old man Yin Yuan saw in the small square was watering the grass in the courtyard.

Cheng Bin said: "Master, I brought Yin Yuan to meet you. His Go level is simply crushing mine."

He Jian said to Yin Yuan: "Welcome, you were absolutely right to deal with my bastard grandnephew that day. When I get back, I'll call my cousin and give him a hard time."

Cheng Bin said: "After he was imprisoned for a day, he realized his mistake, took the initiative to compensate the injured person's medical expenses, and released him the next day. He will definitely restrain himself in the future."

He Jian said: "This kind of rotten person should be locked up for ten days and a half."

Yin Yuan took the local specialties brought from home from the trunk and said, "These are all things brought from my hometown. Let Mr. He try them."

Cheng Bin scratched his head and said, "Every time I come to my master's house, I come here empty-handed to eat and drink. I didn't expect you, Brother Yin, to be such a good person?"

No wonder this guy is popular wherever he goes, he has a high emotional intelligence.

Yin Yuan said: "I don't understand the ways of the world. It was my wife who came up with the idea."

According to He Jian's character, if the gift was a red envelope or a gift bought at the mall, he would definitely let him take it back without any politeness.

But now Yin Yuan is sending local specialties.

"Young man, where is your hometown? There are also prunes, winter bamboo shoots..."

"Mr. He, my hometown is in Pingxiang area of ​​Gan Province. I went home this year and bought a lot of these special foods. The fried bacon with winter bamboo shoots and the steamed skin with dried prunes and vegetables, they all taste good."

He Jian said: "I worked in Pingxiang City for several years when I was young."

Yin Yuan said happily: "I didn't expect that Mr. He had worked in Pingxiang City before."

He Jian said: "When I was young, I traveled to many places, including the Northeast. Now that I am old, I only play chess and play with antiques at home."

He led Yin and Yuan into the living room.

The furniture inside is all made of golden nanmu, as are the cabinets at the back.

Several decorations are also valuable antiques.

He Jian said: "Let Master Sun use your ingredients to make some dishes, and you two will stay for dinner tonight. Cheng Bin said you are good at Go. How about we play a game?"

Yin Yuan said modestly: "Brother Cheng and I are about the same level."

There is a chess table specially placed in the living room. The chessboard is made of a whole piece of golden nanmu, the chess pieces are jade, and even the chess box is a handicraft.

Like the Go set in Cheng Bin's hand, they are both valuable items.

Mr. He put on his glasses and sat across from him.

A middle-aged woman at home made tea and invited them to drink tea.

Yin Yuan modestly took the black piece.

Mr. He spent a lot of time on the layout of the first dozen coins.

Elderly people play chess more cautiously.

Cheng Bin watched the two playing chess from the side.

On the surface, Yin Yuan's chess does not have much lethality, but the seemingly invisible chess pieces, after being extended through the chess path, have a surprising victory effect.

Development trends can often be unexpected.

He Lao spent more and more time thinking about each coin.

Cheng Bin also noticed that Yin Yuan's chess moves became more changeable as he went to the back, making him a bit hard to guard against.

At the same time, the speed of his moves is very fast. After He Lao thought for a few minutes and made a move, Yin Yuan could make a decision in almost ten seconds.

After playing more than 200 games, Mr. He said with admiration: "You young people are more active in thinking. It's really good. I am no match for you."

Yin Yuan said politely: "He is also very good at chess. At your age, you can play Go at such a high level. You can't find anyone else in Jiangming City."

Cheng Bin said: "With Xiao Yin's level, can he beat those players from Xiangshan City?"

Mr. He said: "I think it is safe. You must represent Jiangyin City in the chess competition between the two cities in October this year. We have lost to them in the past few years. I hope you can give our city a reputation this year."

He Lao's daughter-in-law had cooked the meal. Seeing that the old man was in high spirits at chess, she left them alone. Now that they had finished playing chess, she asked them to eat first.

Several special dishes made Mr. He full of praise.

I was also particularly impressed by Yin Yuan.

When the two left, he also said to Yin Yuan: "Comrade Xiao Yin, if you have time, you can often come to me to play chess and chat."

He also gave Yin Yuan his home phone number.

Yin Yuan also left a business card for him.

The next day he spent more than two hours coming to the Yangcheng Library.

Take the two pictures to the exhibition organizing office.

There were more than a dozen people queuing at the door holding paintings.

I didn’t expect that there were so many people wanting to participate in the art exhibition.

Yin Yuan stood in the team.

Several professional painters in the office make on-site assessments and give scores on-site. Those that meet the exhibition standards will be kept, and those that fail to meet the standards will be returned by the artist.

The painters will comment on the works on the spot, and those who are not up to the exhibition level will also point out the flaws.

Even if the paintings of these professional painters do not meet the exhibition standards, they can still benefit a lot from experts' evaluation of their paintings.

Several people are discussing.

"I didn't expect so many people to participate?"

“Having expert teachers give you professional guidance will help you a lot even if you are not qualified to participate in the exhibition.”

"Everyone hopes to participate in the exhibition. In that case, it will be equivalent to stepping into the threshold of being a painter. The painters who won the award last year are all famous. Even if they can be selected as ten potential painters, there will be a lot of room for development in the future..."

"I thought they would charge a fee, but I didn't expect they would charge a penny. I participated in the singer competition last year and heard that the registration fee was one to two thousand."

"People are famous for singing and are entertainment stars, but we are painting. It's different."

"The career of a painter is more promising than that of entertainment stars. For famous painters, the starting price for a painting is how much it costs per foot. There are many famous paintings that cost RMB [-] or [-]."

"You can stop dreaming about being a famous painter here. I will be satisfied if you are qualified to participate in the exhibition."

After more than an hour, it was Yin Yuan's turn to enter.

First fill in your name, work title, address and contact number on a form.

The paintings they brought were spread out on the table, and the five experts began to appreciate them.

The two paintings brought by Yin Yuan were spread out on the table...

"This painting is good, and the snow scene is also distinctive."

"The paintings are fresh and refined, and the perspective chosen is unique..."

"This girl can draw superbly, especially her facial expressions, which are so lifelike, and paired with this snowy scene, wow..."

"Yes, I can't find anything wrong with it..."

All five scored perfect marks.

"Congratulations, both paintings are eligible to participate in the exhibition!"

The staff said to him: "The exhibition will start tomorrow, and the evaluation will be conducted in half a month. The results will be notified to you, and you can come and pick up the works at that time."

People waiting in line at the door saw him walking out empty-handed and said with envy: "I successfully entered and gave away one. Alas, another indicator is missing."

Yin Yuan didn't bother to talk to these people, there was no need, and he didn't know what their level was.

It was almost twelve o'clock, and he was going to find a restaurant to have something to eat, and then drive home. The right thing to do was to spend time with his wife and children.

At this time someone beat his eldest brother.

"Is that Mr. Yin? I'm Ouyang Jinhua from Yuyang. Do you still have a memory? That old Ouyang from Ouyang Building..."

It turned out to be Ouyang Jinhua, the MLM king who became famous throughout Yun Province a few years later.

This guy has made his fortune in the past few years. He should be the chairman of a certain group company now.

I started to get all kinds of hairpins, such as vice president, committee member, big taxpayer, group chairman, they all tried their best to wear them on their heads in the past few days.

"You are a famous person in Yuyang, chairman. Of course I remember you. Have you come to Guangdong?"

Yin Yuan thought in his mind: This guy is still in the stage of plating gold on himself. The several mines he has contracted are bringing him a lot of wealth. When he is using the wealth obtained from mining to win various honorary titles, he is also Didn't turn to pyramid schemes.

What's the matter with him at this time?

Ouyang Jinhua said: "As expected, it's you. I saw you at the entrance of the library. Look at the restaurant on the second floor of the Yangcheng Hotel opposite. My friends and I are dining here. You shouldn't have had lunch yet. Come up and meet. Damn it. Window seat is table 8.”

The restaurant opposite is at least 20 meters away from the library. I didn't expect that his eyesight was so good and he recognized himself at a glance.

Duan Yuan walked to the restaurant on the second floor opposite and found Ouyang Jinhua and three others at table No. [-] by the window.

A plump young woman in her early thirties with short hair.

The other one turned out to be Feng Yizhen's uncle Xu Dongxin.

"Hey, uncle, why are you with Chairman Ouyang?"

Could it be that the founder of this MLM king is you, Xu Dongxin?

Ouyang Jinhua asked in surprise: "Mr. Xu is Xiao Yin's uncle?"

This is too coincidental.

Xu Dongxin explained: "My niece married Boss Yin's brother as his wife."

Ouyang Jinhua nodded: "So that's it."

He asked Yin Yuan to sit down and asked the waiter to bring an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks.

He introduced the young woman next to him and said: "Chen Xuemei, our company's accountant."

Chen Xuemei chuckled and said, "Boss Yin is young and promising. Our Chairman Ouyang has praised you many times and said that you are someone who can do big things in the future."

Yin Yuan said: "I am just an ordinary person. Sister Chen and Chairman Ouyang are the ones who do big things. I can only be a small boss in my life."

He knew that Ouyang Jinhua went to Yun Province at the end of 99 and opened a Chuguang branch of Kangyuan Industrial Co., Ltd., and the products he sold were SOD capsules, SOD health wine, and Xuemei brand suits produced by his Gan Province Qinglong Company.

When he was arrested, he was also in the escape car with Chen Xuemei.

This shows how close he is to this woman.

The family recently married a girl of eighteen or nineteen to help him carry on the family line, because his first wife only gave birth to two girls for him.

He divorced his old wife and married a young girl just to have a boy.

With the taxes he pays every year, even if he has a few more children, someone will take care of him.

Ouyang Jinhua asked him: "What are you doing in the library opposite? I really envy you educated young people who like to go to the library, unlike us who have never read books and can't read a lot of Chinese characters."

Yin Yuan knew that what he was telling the truth was that he had just graduated from elementary school and did not have much education. However, for the great deeds he had done in his life, even a doctorate graduate would not necessarily be more accomplished than him.
