Chapter 1755 - 1755 The Gist Of It
1755 The Gist Of It
From holding these art exhibitions, she got to know many top figures in the industry and expanded her connections. It also formed a lot of support for her work.
It could be said that opening an art exhibition was her trump card.
In particular, every time she held an art exhibition, Old Master He would come to admire her works. Every time he praised her, his evaluation of her would increase.
In comparison, what did Su Bei have?!!
She only had a sweet face and the ability to say some likable words. Old Master He did not lack these!
“An art exhibition? In the United States?” Su Bei’s voice was a little lazy when she received Qian Gouhua’s call. “So you called me in the middle of the night to talk about this?”
Qian Gouhua’s voice was fervent. “The last time I sent your painting to the United States for an art exhibition, it was liked by many people and caught the attention of many painters. Did I tell you that even Lin Xiruo specially took time to admire your painting and gave a very high evaluation of you?”
“Oh.” Su Bei didn’t need him to say anything. She had already found out from He Xuyan.
Also, she had forgotten to tell Lin Xiruo her identity.
Forget it. She would talk about it the next time Lin Xiruo came back.
“There were also some other painters who called me to ask if you had any new works. There was even an oil painting master who said that he wanted to take you in as his apprentice! He’s a particularly famous master, and he has a lot of authority. He has a lot of resources and wealth in Europe…”
Su Bei yawned. Qian Gouhua tapped on his phone. “Hey, hey, hey? Are you listening, Su Lu?”
“Yes, go ahead.” Su Bei was not interested in resources or wealth. She was only interested in when she would see her husband and son!
The two elders were especially good to her now. She had only been back for a few days, so it was not appropriate for her to leave. She could only wait for Lu Heting to come over.
However, Lu Heting had been especially busy recently, making Wang Hui think that Su Bei was about to get a divorce.
“So the gist of it is that holding an art exhibition now will be beneficial to your own advancement and the advancement of my career!” Qian Gouhua concluded.
“Okay, okay. Then let’s hold one. It just so happens that I’m also in America, so it’ll be convenient.” Su Bei thought that since she was bored and it just so happened that she had recently done some new paintings, she might as well take the opportunity to gain feedback on her progress.
She had hidden her true identity in front of Old Master He. When the art exhibition was successful, she could also reveal her true identity to Old Master He!
It was perfect!
“You’re in the United States! To think that I was so anxious! Just you wait, I’ll be right there!” Qian Guohua’s voice was fervent over the phone. He wished he could put down the phone and fly straight to the United States.
…
“Grandpa, the art exhibition will be held in five days.” He Shihui sat in front of Old Master He and introduced her plan.
When Old Master He heard that she was holding another art exhibition, he stroked his beard in satisfaction. “Good, good, not bad. Is there anything I can help you with?”
“Everything is going smoothly. If I need anything, I’ll definitely ask you for help,” He Shihui said with a smile.
Old Master He nodded. “That’s for sure. Your paintings have always been of high standards. When the time comes, not only will I be there, but I’ll also invite a few old friends to come and support you.”
“It’s my honor. Thank you, Grandpa.” He Shihui immediately thanked him.
Such an opportunity was not rare. Not only could she meet many elders of the older generation and obtain their teachings, but she could also use this opportunity to build a good relationship with them. In the future, it would also be convenient for her to talk to them about business matters.
Everything that the rich and famous did was not for nothing. Every interest and hobby had a purpose.
It was on these occasions that many things about wealth and business were determined. It was not just about appearing elegant.
If they gained more support, it would be beneficial for them to fight for the family business in the future.
Although Wang Hui was petty, she had been in the He family for a long time and was familiar with these things. Seeing that Old Master He was so happy, she took the opportunity to say, “Then why don’t you invite Su Bei over too?”
He Shihui smiled at Su Bei and said, “Su Bei, you’ve been learning painting from Grandpa recently. Why don’t you come over?”
“If I have time, I’ll definitely go.” Su Bei nodded with a smile.
Wang Hui asked, “Su Bei is also learning how to paint? How’s her learning going now? If she’s good at it, you can display some of your paintings in your cousin’s art exhibition. That way, more people will know you.”
Of course, she thought that an artiste like Su Bei would not focus on learning painting, nor would she achieve anything in the field.
She said these words because she hoped to compare Su Bei and He Shihui in front of Old Master He.
Su Bei had only casually painted in front of Old Master He, so she naturally did not have any skills or achievements.
Old Master He smiled and said, “Su Bei still needs to learn more. Don’t be in a hurry to rush things.”
“That’s true. Shihui learned painting from her grandfather and has been learning it for 30 years under the guidance of other great teachers. Ordinary people can’t catch up to her. Su Bei, don’t be discouraged. You definitely didn’t have time to learn it in the past, but you can learn it well in the future. In 20 to 30 years, you’ll be about the same as Shihui.” Wang Hui’s words were full of confidence.
If just catching up to He Shihui’s painting skills would take 20 to 30 years, what about other things?
Old Master He glanced at her. “Enough.”
Although his tone was not harsh, it still made Wang Hui’s heart skip a beat.
“Su Bei has her own career. Why force a comparison?” Old Master He said, “Not everyone wants to be a painter.”
“I said too much,” Wang Hui said reluctantly.
He Shihui hurriedly smiled and said, “Grandpa, my mother didn’t mean it. Actually, Su Bei is Aunt’s daughter, and Aunt is so talented. If Su Bei wants to learn, she’ll definitely surpass me in minutes. I only got to where I am because of everyone’s love and guidance.”
Only then did Old Master He feel at ease. “You’ve worked hard to get to where you are today. You’re indeed more experienced than your cousin in all aspects. You should give her more pointers in the future.”
“Of course. My cousin and I are a family. We’ll support each other in the future. I hope we can learn more from each other in the future.”
