In the conference room of the exhibition in the government building in the 13th arrondissement of Paris, Marshall, as the president of the European Oil Painting Association and a famous world oil painting master, spoke to an Oriental in such a humble tone for the first time.
"Your Excellency Sunny, as the president of the European Oil Painting Association, I formally invite you to join our association, become our member, and invite you to serve as the vice president of the board of directors of our European Oil Painting Association. I don't know what you mean. How about the next one?"
Gu Yue'er was brought to the conference room, where she saw many oil painting masters that she had only seen in textbooks. None of them were members of the European Oil Painting Association. In fact, although this association is regionally called the European Oil Painting Association, its actual function is the World Oil Painting Association.
There is no such organization as the World Oil Painting Association. Therefore, the European Oil Painting Association actually represents the highest organization in the world of oil painting. Its members and their works also represent the highest level of world oil painting. You can say that! Even if a painting is nothing, as long as it is from the European Oil Painting Association, the value of the painting will be doubled. At a normal auction, the auction price will be at least more than 100,000 euros.
However, it is not that easy to join the European Oil Painting Association. The European Oil Painting Association currently has only a few hundred members. Therefore, for those who want to join the European Oil Painting Association, in addition to those who already have reputation and strength in the international painting world and are actively invited by the European Oil Painting Association, other painters want to join. They must mail their works for review by the European Oil Painting Association. At least half of the members must recognize its level before they can join.
Gu Yue'er had sent out her oil paintings several times before, but was refused admission every time. Therefore, Gu Yue'er never expected that today she would be invited to join the meeting by Marshall, the president of the European Oil Painting Association.
"I... I'm not dreaming, am I? Really... really let me join the club?"
Gu Yue'er felt that she was just dreaming now. She knew her level and was definitely not good enough to join the club. But now the facts are before our eyes.
"Wait... Master Marshall... you... what did you just call me? Sunny? I... my English name is not this, my English name is moon." [
Remembering that Marshall had called herself sunny just now, Gu Yue'er suddenly woke up and thought to herself, could it be that Master Marshall recognized the wrong person? Recognized me as someone else? But who can have so much energy? Did Master Marshall personally invite him to join the club? For such an oil painter, his works must be stunningly talented, right
When Gu Yue'er just entered the exhibition hall, she was already pulled over by Marshall. So I didn't even see the two stunning paintings by Su Lin in the center of the exhibition hall. Therefore, Gu Yue'er had no idea who this sunny in Marshall's mouth was
"What? You... you're not sunny? How... how is this possible?"
Marshall was very happy to find the talented painter Sunny directly. Because when Liu Yizhi communicated with him before, he had said that the talented painter Sunny did not want his identity to be exposed. That's why Marshall was so nervous about dragging Gu Yue'er into the meeting. He was afraid that if he missed this opportunity, he might never find Sunny again.
It is for this reason that Marshall specially made the invitation tickets for this exhibition numbered. The invitation ticket Sulin got was the invitation ticket No. 03. Marshall specifically asked the guard when he found the invitation ticket No. 03. He must be informed as soon as possible.
But now, Marshall found that his joy was in vain. The other party actually denied that it was Sunny.
"No! Liu said that Sunny didn't want her identity to be exposed, so it's very possible that she denied it on purpose."
When Marshall thought about it, it was very likely that this was the case, because after all, he personally gave the ticket to Liu Yizhi and asked him to pass it on to Sunny. So he continued to pull Gu Yue'er and said: "Sunny, you don't need to deny it, I'm sure it's you. Don't worry, there are all members of our European Oil Painting Association in this conference room, and your identity will not be leaked. of."
"Master Marshall, I... I'm really not Sunny, and I don't even know who Sunny is? I... I also want to join the European Oil Painting Association, but... I can't pretend to be someone else!"
Gu Yue'er was also anxious. Although joining the European Oil Painting Association could be said to be her lifelong dream, she was not willing to just join in someone else's name.
"Could it be that...you...are really not?"
Marshall was also confused, but he looked at the ticket in Gu Yue'er's hand. Yes, it was the invitation ticket for No. 03!
"I'm sorry, Master Marshall, I'm really not Sunny, and I don't know him either."
Gu Yue'er continued to explain, "But, Master Marshall, you... if you have time, can you take a look at my works?"
At this time, Liu Yizhi, who was talking to someone in the conference room, noticed what was going on with Marshall and came over. Especially when he saw Marshall holding a Chinese girl and talking cordially, he was even more surprised and laughed. Hehehe came over and said: "President Marshall, this seems to be an oil painter from China! But I don't know him, why don't you introduce him?" [
"What? Liu, you don't know her either? Could it be that I really recognized the wrong person? I thought... she was Sunny!"
After hearing what Liu Yizhi said, Marshall was really sure that the Gu Yue'er in front of him was indeed not Sunny.
"What? President Marshall, did you mistake her for Sunny? No wonder, you have never seen Sunny. But he said he would come over today, so he should be here soon!"
Liu Yizhi said as he walked towards the exit of the conference room. "President Marshall, I'm going out to see if Sunny has arrived."
"Liu. I'm afraid Sunny won't show up today."
With a sigh, Marshall pointed to the ticket in Gu Yue'er's hand and said, "Liu, look at the invitation ticket in this girl's hand. Isn't it the one I asked you to give to Sunny? That's why I was wrong. Recognize her as Sunny. Now that Sunny’s ticket is in the hands of this girl, I’m afraid Sunny didn’t plan to come from the beginning.”
"What? The invitation ticket is in her hand?"
Liu Yizhi stepped forward and took the invitation ticket from Gu Yue'er's hand and looked at it carefully. Said, "It seems like this is really the case. He doesn't plan to come over, otherwise, he wouldn't give away the tickets."
"Yes... I'm sorry... Are you Master Liu Yizhi?" Gu Yuer'er looked at the somewhat familiar Liu Yizhi in front of her and asked in Chinese.
"Yes! I am Liu Yizhi. Miss, may I ask, how did you get the ticket in your hand?" Liu Yizhi looked at Gu Yuer in front of him and said doubtfully, "Do you... know Su Lin?"
"I don't know Sunny or Su Lin you are talking about! I... this ticket was given to me by someone at the entrance of the exhibition."
Gu Yue'er could see so many oil painting masters today, especially Marshall and Liu Yizhi. She already felt very lucky. She also looked at the ticket in her hand. Feelings were the special opportunity this ticket brought to her! It seems that I want to thank that "Lei Feng".
"Someone gave it to you? Do you... do you know him? What's his name?" Liu Yizhi then asked.
"I...I don't know him, he...he only said his name is Lei Feng, what? Master Liu Yizhi. Who is he? Seeing that you are all so nervous about him, could it be that he is also an oil painter?"
Now, Gu Yue'er became interested in the "Lei Feng" who gave her the ticket. For such an oil painter, who could make both Marshall and Liu Yizhi so nervous, and who could also make Marshall take the initiative to send out an invitation to join the association, Gu Yuer'er wondered why she didn't know that there was a rising star in the painting world named Sunny
"Hey! He gave you the ticket. It seems he won't come in."
Sighing, Liu Yizhi ignored Gu Yue'er's other questions and apologized to Marshall next to him, "I'm very sorry, President Marshall, it seems Sunny won't be coming today. The association's auction plan is probably going to change. …”
"That... what a pity! God! Am I lucky enough to meet this talented painter in my life?"
Marshall also sighed in disappointment when he heard the bad news.
"Wait...Master Marshall, Master Liu Yizhi...I...I have something to say..."
Seeing how much Marshall and Liu Yizhi attached great importance to Sunny, Gu Yue'er couldn't help but interrupt and said, "I asked him how he got the ticket at that time, and he said it was his own. I asked him what he would do after he gave me the ticket. Yes, he said he had a way to get in, which means he should come in again. Moreover, he has already arrived at the entrance of the exhibition. If he hadn't seen that I couldn't get in without a ticket, he should have taken this A ticket came in."
Gu Yue'er thought about it and analyzed it.
"Really? It seems... Sunny has also come in. Maybe he has extra tickets. President Marshall, I will go out and look for him now. If I see Sunny, I will bring him in immediately."
After hearing Gu Yue'er's words, Liu Yizhi walked out of the conference room excitedly. Gu Yue'er knew that the other party had found the wrong person, so she could only chat with Marshall for a few more words before preparing to leave from the door of the conference room.
But at this time, Qin Li and his son, who chased Gu Yuer'er to the door of the conference room, were stopped by the waiter at the door.
"Sorry, sir, this is a non-visitable part. It is a meeting room for members of the European Oil Painting Association. You are not allowed in!"
"Why can't I go in? The two people in front can go in, why can't I go in? I... do you know who I am? I am also a great painter, and I also have paintings on display here today."
Being stopped by two white waiters at the door, Qin Li felt proud, especially since his father Qin Zesheng was also beside him, and he suddenly said angrily.
"Then please show your European Oil Painting Association membership card. Only with the certificate can you enter." The waiter was of good quality and said to Qin Li politely.
"I... I... I haven't gotten the permit yet, why can't I go in?"
Qin Li's face was flushed now. Although he had paintings on display here, he did not go through the normal channels at all and was not qualified to become a member of the European Oil Painting Association.
Just when the father and son were deadlocked at the door, not knowing what to do, Gu Yue'er walked out of it with some disappointment.
"Yue'er! It's me... Qin Li! This way..."
As soon as Qin Li saw Gu Yue'er coming out, his previous embarrassment disappeared, and he hurriedly greeted her, saying, "What a coincidence! I ran into you here, why are you here today?"
"Qin Li? You... why are you here too?"
Gu Yue'er glanced at Qin Li and said calmly, "I'll come over to take a look and learn from the master's works."
"Yue'er, this is my father Qin Zesheng. Also, this time, I have works on display here. I will take you to see them later."
Qin Li straightened his back and said proudly in front of Gu Yue'er.
Originally, he wanted to talk to Gu Yue'er and ask her to introduce Marshall, the president of the European Oil Painting Association, to him and join the association through the back door. But now when he saw Gu Yue'er, he forgot about this matter, and instead wanted to show his tall image.
When he was at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Qin Li had always wanted to pursue Gu Yue'er. At that time, Chairman Gu had not yet come to power and was only the Vice Premier of the State Council. However, the Qin family's intention to marry the Gu family was already obvious. Especially since Qin Li and Gu Yuer are both engaged in art, this is much more convenient.
However, it is a pity that Gu Yue'er has never been very fond of Qin Li, but Qin Li has never forgotten Gu Yue'er. Not to mention Gu Yue'er's family background, Gu Yue'er herself was once the school beauty of the Central Academy of Fine Arts.
"What? Do you have works on display here? Qin Li, have you...have you joined the European Oil Painting Association?"
Gu Yue'er was shocked when she heard Qin Li's words, because those who can display their paintings here are basically the first-class painters in the world, and if Qin Li is qualified to exhibit his paintings here, he must be qualified to join European Oil Painting Association.
"This... not yet. But... that... will be soon!"
Now I am afraid that the question Qin Li is most afraid of hearing is joining the European Oil Painting Association. However, he quickly changed the topic and stepped forward to take Gu Yue'er's hand and said: "Yue'er, let's go! I will take you to see my paintings..."
But at this moment, Gu Yue'er shook off Qin Li's hand without giving Qin Li any dignity, then quickly ran forward, chasing after a person and said: "Hey! You... don't leave! Lei Feng... Don’t leave... just wait a moment... "
That's right, Gu Yue'er, who was at the door of the conference room, suddenly discovered Su Lin among the crowd, the mysterious man who had just given her the No. 3 invitation ticket. Because she didn't know his name, Gu Yue'er had to call him Lei Feng. (To be continued...)
