Chapter 908 Summary
As long as Guo Dalu wants to do something, he will generally consider the consequences and the response methods after the emergencies in advance. After considering all the things that can be considered, he will no longer hesitate and do it as soon as he says. Unless a special situation occurs, it will be difficult to stop him.
Just the second day after the press conference, Guo Dalu communicated with the cultural department and began a vigorous rectification of the Arts Association and Calligraphy Association as a special vice president.
All members were reviewed one by one, and a group of scammers who were just making up for the numbers and used their relationship to go through the back door were removed.
Love of calligraphy and traditional calligraphy and painting is not a sin in itself, and it should be vigorously promoted. However, if you don’t have enough strength, you have to sharpen your head and rush to the Calligraphy Association Artists Association and cheat with this identity. This is a problem. If you lack the awe and respect for traditional culture, these people can do anything.
At this time, under Guo Dalu's observation, many people who had no skills in calligraphy and painting, and even had basic knowledge of calligraphy and painting were all cleared by him, and it would not be easy for anyone to come.
In the Calligraphy Association, many members are veteran cadres who love calligraphy. Guo Dalu's merciless cleaning made many people lose their temper. Some people directly wrote to the relevant departments, saying that Guo Dalu is a kid who makes trouble for nothing and interferes with the normal entertainment activities of the elderly, causing great harm to their physical and mental health, making it difficult for them to raise their heads in front of their friends.
Guo Dalu responded to this: "I am happy to see the success of the elderly. The happier you are in your old age, the happier I am. This means that our country attaches more and more importance to the care of the elderly. But entertainment is entertainment, major is professional. As a hobby, it is a good thing. But if you think of yourself as a professional after learning calligraphy and painting for a few days, it would be too naive! There are so many students from the art academy in the country who love calligraphy and painting. After studying for so many years, they dare not say that they are professional. Have you become calligraphers and painters after practicing for just a few months? At such an old age, you don't know a little about it?"
It is said that his words passed by several old men on the spot, which made Li Songtao frightened, fearing that something life-threatening happened.
Fortunately, Guo Dalu is quite sensible in his work. He just removed these old men from the association in private and did not publicly announce them. He also took care of the face of these calligraphy enthusiasts.
But another type of person, Guo Dalu would not be so willing to give up.
This kind of person is the kind of liar who comes to fool people under the banner of the Art Association Calligraphy Association. Qigong calligraphy, Kung Fu calligraphy, Foot calligraphy, Dragon and Snake calligraphy are all from these people, but many people are actually not from the Calligraphy Association. "Members of the Calligraphy Association" are just a guise they use to show off their identities.
Guo Dalu specially conducted an investigation into such people and made the so-called master and the master's name that he could collect to the public, so as not to let more people be scared by the series of names of these fake masters, and to give these guys more soil to survive.
In fact, even if the identities of these people are made public, they will not play a big role. Just like a cult, you promote what a cult is, but people don’t listen at all, and don’t think they have been deceived. Instead, they think that the person who attacks the scammers is deliberately slandering people.
What Guo Dalu can do is to clean up members of the Artists Association, and the part about social favors outside the Artists Association is nothing to do with him.
Just when he was cleaning up people, reporters reported from time to time online that the cleaning of Guo Dalu has greatly affected the lives and work of many "folk calligraphy and painting artists". There were endless people seeking paintings, but Guo Dalu was so involved, which led to the lack of cars and horses in front of these people, and even the most basic life was difficult to guarantee. Several people clamored to commit suicide because Guo Dalu cut off their source of life.
A reporter angrily wrote in a report article: "The art of calligraphy and painting is a very subjective art. Everyone has his own understanding. Maybe something you think is ugly, but in some people's eyes there is another kind of beauty. I still can't understand Western abstract paintings, but it does not prevent abstract paintings from being auctioned at auction houses. There is a need. People in China's folk calligraphy and painting artists live very hard. Basically, they make a living by selling paintings. As a result, Guo Dalu blocked their only survival path. This is a kind of bullying and oppression of the lower class. If something happens, Guo Dalu will not stand morally!"
"What qualifications does Guo Dalu have to deny other people's calligraphy and painting works? Who can guarantee whether there is any mixed with his personal selfishness and subjective likes and dislikes? Sometimes his gentle words will affect many families who make a living by doing this! Will Guo Dalu's conscience hurt?"
In response, Guo Dalu's team publicly refuted: "Mr. Guo Dalu has no intention to attack folk calligraphy and painting artists, and he has no right to attack anyone. What Mr. Guo is doing now is just a matter of clearing the source, clearing out a group of people who have no foundation in calligraphy and painting that are just a matter of filling in the numbers out of the Art Association, and driving out some scammers who deliberately hype and regard ugly as beauty from the association. Only after these scammers can the calligraphy and painting industry be blown into a breeze. Indulgence on scammers is a crime against good people! Some reporters can guide the topic, but forget the most basic moral code. We have exposed the fraud and stopped the crime. Will we still be condemned?"
There are many distorted caring people in today's society, or deliberately pretending to be caring people, but they are actually people who want to make trouble. When these people saw these reports, they all became excited and began to condemn Guo Dalu online.
Guo Dalu has long been too lazy to refute these things. Many guys deliberately provoke celebrities. As long as the celebrity refutes or responds, they just happen to be their plan. These people are eager to fight with celebrities, and some public accounts even specialize in fighting with celebrities to gain attention.
Guo Dalu ignored these stinky fish, rotten shrimps, etc., but as he cleaned up more and more people and things became bigger and bigger, it was really necessary to make a positive response to this matter.
When I was interviewed again, it was two months after the exhibition ended. At this time, Guo Dalu had already conducted a comprehensive review of the members of the Calligraphy Association and Artists Association across the country, and should have made a summary remark on this matter.
"There is absolutely no art in the world that is not tempered by time!"
Facing the reporter's interview, Guo Dalu concluded: "There is no way to go, calligraphy, painting, music, film and television performance. All these art forms require time polishing and unremitting efforts to allow real works to be born. For example, dance, a good dancer needs to train himself since childhood and practice for many years before he can become a dancer, but he is far from being called a dancer. There are many people who learn dance in China, but how many are really famous?"
He told reporters: "The same is true for music. Whether it is the actors who play musical instruments or learn singing, they need to practice hard for a long time before they can enter a professional team and become a member of the team. The same is true for actors. Apart from a small group of nine-rate actors who sleep at the top, which one of the successful actors has suffered a lot in secret? But why can individuals become masters when they enter the calligraphy and painting world, especially in the calligraphy world? These people do not copy, practice, and have not undergone long-term hard training. They cannot even recognize traditional Chinese characters, and can even write ancient poems incorrectly."
"Among all art forms, calligraphy should be the most simplified category. It doesn't matter if you can't write it well, and it doesn't matter if others can't understand it. It seems even more profound and unfathomable. The current calligraphy world is like the crosstalk world, with the threshold too low, and any cat or dog can come in and get a share of the pie."
After this episode was broadcast, no one else's reaction was said, and people in the crosstalk world were confused: "Mom, I'm a dog guy, if you scold a scammer, just scold me, what's the matter with our crosstalk world!"
