Kong An is not only a professor in the Department of Fine Arts, but also a candidate for the next dean of the Department of Fine Arts.
This matter is basically a done deal.
With his status, it should be no problem for him to have a chat with the principal late at night.
However, when Principal Shi Huainan heard Kong An talking about this, his first reaction was:
Are you mistaken
He stared at Kong An seriously and said with some difficulty: "Are you saying that the students with the best sketching grades in the junior painting department were taught by a student in the sophomore composition department?"
"Absolutely."
Kong An's eyes were shining: "Principal, I only ask one thing of you, get this kid to our art department and let him be a tutor!"
"You are crazy."
Shi Huainan held his forehead with his hand and said, "You let sophomores be teachers for your junior art department?"
"More than just a junior."
Kong An said: "It's more than enough to be a teacher for seniors."
Principal Shi Huainan was stunned when he heard this: "Is it really that amazing?"
Kong An nodded: "I checked before I came here. The sketching grades of these students were relatively average before. After being taught by Lin Yuan, their levels have improved by leaps and bounds. To be honest, I am ashamed of my teaching level."
"Understood."
Shi Huainan hesitated for a moment and said, "I can't be the only one who agrees with this matter. We still have to respect the opinions of the students, the composition department, and the parents."
"OK."
Kong An nodded: "I'll find him tomorrow and tie him up!"
Shi Huainan smiled bitterly, but he also knew that Kong An was just talking and it was impossible for him to really tie him up and force him into the Art Department.
"I'm leaving."
Kong An waved and left.
Shi Huainan looked at his back and remembered the name "Lin Yuan" for the first time.
…
the next day.
The results of the final exam came out, and the fact that the top 50 sketching contestants were almost all Lin Yuan’s students caused a storm in the Art Department!
“Oh my god.”
“It’s so scary!”
"Are the students taught by Lin Yuan so awesome?"
"You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. I'm going to find Lin Yuan to teach him too!"
"Lin Yuan is not someone you can learn from just because you want to. Students who have made an appointment for his sketching class have already been scheduled for two weeks later."
"I didn't quite believe him before, and now I really regret it!"
"… "
After the storm passed, when Lin Yuan appeared in the painting club again, he was unsurprisingly met with a large crowd of onlookers.
at the same time.
The class schedule with Lin Yuan is almost full!
Lin Yuan felt very strange that there were so many people who had made appointments for sketching classes today.
Zhong Yu was secretly happy, and he leaned over to whisper in his ear mysteriously, "Master, the number of reservations today is off the charts because we made a big news story yesterday. I organized it!"
Lin Yuan asked: "How big is it?"
Zhong Yu was stunned for a moment and was about to answer when there was a sudden noise at the door of the painting club, and then an energetic old man walked in slowly.
Professor Kong An from the Department of Fine Arts!
Zhong Yu murmured: "It's just this big..."
At this time, Kong An had already walked to the exhibition area of the painting club.
The exhibition corner was filled with paintings by great masters of the painting department. He paused for a moment, looking at the dozen or so paintings on the wall, and finally his gaze stopped on the two sketches on the left with Lin Yuan's name on them.
See these two paintings.
Kong An's body suddenly shook.
Then he asked softly, "Is Lin Yuan here?"
Immediately, a student showed the way and led Kong An to Lin Yuan.
Kong An gave a kind smile and looked at Lin Yuan as if he was looking at a rare treasure.
"Hello."
Facing his elders, Lin Yuan stood up politely.
Kong An looked at him and nodded: "You must be Lin Yuan, don't be nervous. I came to you to ask if you would like to consider coming to our art department?"
"No."
Lin Yuan shook his head.
Kong An paused, looked at Zhong Yu, and coughed lightly.
Zhong Yu was a little panicked at first, thinking that the event he organized had caused trouble for Lin Yuan.
But seeing Kong An's reaction, he immediately felt relieved.
He understood the other party's hint and whispered in Lin Yuan's ear: "Master, this is Professor Kong from our Art Department. He is in charge of the entire Art Department..."
Lin Yuan nodded: "Hello, Professor Kong."
Kong An regained his smile: "Come to the Art Department, I will teach you personally."
Kong An could tell at a glance from the painting just now that Lin Yuan possessed professional-level painting skills!
Lin Yuan is so young, but he has reached such a level. He can definitely be called a sketching genius. So Kong An’s mind at this moment is not just to recruit Lin Yuan to the art department—
He still lacks a capable apprentice.
At this time, all the people in the painting club gathered together. When they heard Kong An’s words, their eyes widened and they drooled with envy!
This seems like he is going to accept Lin Yuan as his last disciple!
Kong An is a very influential figure in the painting world, and being able to become his last disciple is something that countless painters dream of!
It can be said that as long as Lin Yuan agrees, he will definitely have a place in the painting world in the future.
However.
To everyone's surprise, Lin Yuan seemed to be unaware of this concept: "I don't want to go to the painting department."
Kong An's smile froze again.
He looked at Lin Yuan strangely: "You don't like painting?"
Lin Yuan said: "I like it."
Kong An said: "Then why don't you come?"
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and said, "The composition department is more suitable for me."
There are many kinds of art, and the system will provide Lin Yuan with countless directions, but because of the original owner, Lin Yuan’s favorite is still music.
"I'll give you time to think about it."
Kong An didn't dare to push too hard, for fear that Lin Yuan would develop a rebellious mentality.
But he was determined to get Lin Yuan. He might never meet such a good talent in his lifetime. How could he give up easily
Children are very easy to coax.
"OK."
Lin Yuan believed that the other party also knew that, usually speaking, considering it meant not agreeing.
Kong An sat on the bench handed to him by the students and asked, "Will you continue to teach sketching in the painting club?"
"uncertain."
"Why?"
“The price will go up.”
Lin Yuan answered.
The corner of Kong An's mouth twitched.
The students around couldn't help but hold their foreheads in their hands. Five hundred per hour was already very high for students, and Lin Yuan was actually going to raise the price
Kong An asked: "How much?"
Lin Yuan said: "One thousand and one hours."
Kong An's mouth twitched again. This price was already on par with his own. However, in terms of the level of sketch teaching alone, Lin Yuan was indeed higher than his own, so this price was not exaggerated:
“When will the price increase?”
Lin Yuan said: "I don't know."
He will not raise the price now. He will consider raising the price only when the effect of the teacher has been significantly improved. He must be true to his conscience when doing business. He does not want to become a profiteer.
"OK."
Kong An suddenly stood up and said, "When you raise your price, remember to come to the Art Department to find me. Let's sit down and have a good talk. The school can also cooperate with you and pay you a certain amount of remuneration. They won't bully you just because you are a student."
Lin Yuan nodded: "Yes."
The members around were almost stunned when they saw this scene.
They could never have imagined that one day they would see with their own eyes the head of the art department talking business with a sophomore student.
This picture is so weird no matter how you look at it.
But thinking about the fact that the top 50 sketching places in the art department exam were almost all taken by Lin Yuan's students, everyone seemed to think that the price increase was actually quite reasonable...
