During her sophomore year, He Tiantian basically did not attend school.
She either travels to art galleries and art galleries across the country, or participates in art exhibitions of some friends in the circle, or art exhibitions held in China.
During the winter and summer vacations, I will travel to Europe and the United States with my sister.
My sister wanted to learn about the language environment and familiarize herself with her professional courses, while He Tiantian went straight to major art galleries and museums.
Over the past year, He Tiantian may not be able to paint for more than ten hours a day as she used to, but she has copied a large number of works.
And her painting skills became more and more proficient and natural.
Maybe it has reached a certain ceiling, but it can be more vivid and lively.
Especially her grasp of layout and color has reached the level of perfection.
In the past, when painting an oil painting, she would make a rough sketch in advance, but now, everything is in her mind, and she can draw it from scratch.
"Tiantian, you should go abroad and further your studies in Paris or an academy of fine arts in England!"
After Lu Hongbo saw a work that He Tiantian had just completed recently, he felt that his young apprentice could really start his career.
Going to Europe, where the artistic atmosphere is more intense, tempering is secondary. The main reason is that He Tiantian needs a more professional and taller stage.
If he continues to stay in China, even if several large galleries take the initiative to invite him, and even if he has the painter Lu Hongbo as his backer, He Tiantian's development will be limited.
He Tiantian's talent and skills can definitely lead to greater achievements!
"...Okay, I'll discuss it with my family!"
He Tiantian knew that her teacher must be doing it for her own good.
In fact, He Tiantian also wants to go abroad.
During the winter and summer vacations, it is really difficult to satisfy He Tiantian's desire to view famous paintings in just a few days.
If she could go abroad, even if she could not be admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts for a while, she would be very happy just to go to art galleries and museums to copy every day.
Even if the teacher didn't take the initiative to mention it, He Tiantian would make such a decision.
"Well, you can also prepare in advance for foreign languages. I do know French, but I'm too old to give you extra lessons every day. How about I find you a teacher in this field?"
Lu Hongbo really regarded He Tiantian as his own child, so he considered everything for her.
He Tiantian shook her head, "No! Teacher, I can speak French!"
Not only does she speak French, she is also proficient in Spanish and German.
In reality, she is someone who can do on-site interpretation.
"Do you know French? When did you learn it?"
Lu Hongbo was a little surprised. His young apprentice was obsessed with painting every day, so how could he still have the time to learn a foreign language?
"Hey, teacher, you forgot, my sister is a graduate student in the Foreign Languages Department of Beijing Normal University. She took French as an elective in college. I heard her speak a lot, so I learned some!"
He Tiantian grinned and used He Tianxin as a cover.
Lu Hongbo thought for a moment and realized that he had met He Tiantian's sister, He Tianxin.
He is a steady and sensible child.
He is four years older than He Tiantian, but he has always taken care of his sister.
Although Lu Hongbo didn't know what major He Tianxin studied, He Tiantian said that he knew it, so he shouldn't be lying.
Besides, this kind of thing is easy to verify. Lu Hongbo can test whether it is true or false by talking directly to He Tiantian in French.
"...Not bad, studying abroad is enough!" Lu Hongbo asked He Tiantian a few questions and saw that her answers were fluent and her grammar and pronunciation were very standard, so he nodded with satisfaction.
So, it was decided to study abroad.
As for whether to go to England or Paris, He Tiantian has not decided yet.
Because both places have the world's top art schools.
"Sister, do you want to go abroad? Do you prefer Paris or England?"
On weekends, the two sisters went to the rented house for a small gathering.
At the dinner table, He Tiantian asked casually.
"Going abroad?"
If he had not come to Beijing to study at university, perhaps He Tianxin would have been ready to work after finishing graduate school.
But when she came to the capital, she realized that there were so many talented people?
A graduate degree from a graduate school doesn't seem to mean much.
These days, "returnees" is not a derogatory term, but a true elite.
Being gilded abroad will only be good for her future!
The most important thing is that she has this condition.
If you can't pass the exam at public expense, you can still pay for it at your own expense.
Unlike her previous life, because of He Tiantian's various efforts, she shouldered the burden of the family.
That is to say, after graduation, I did not dare to continue my studies, but directly found a job.
While working, she met her husband, got married, and had children.
In her previous life, she and her husband turned from a loving couple into resentful enemies.
Her support for her mother's family and her connivance towards He Tiantian are certainly the biggest reasons.
But there are also some other factors.
He Tianxin felt very guilty about her husband and children.
However, she does not want to have anything to do with her husband in this life.
Because she could never forget the scene of them blaming each other and hurting each other.
There was already a crack in her heart, and it was difficult for her to regard her husband as the person closest to her.
And to be honest, if it were her husband or children who could be reborn, they would definitely not want to have anything to do with her after rebirth.
He will not be allowed to continue to be family members with them in the name of "compensation".
He Tianxin experienced all kinds of things and had a complete epiphany. She did not want to be "self-righteous".
Sometimes, the so-called compensation and the so-called good for you will only make the other party feel like a burden and even make you feel sick.
"...it's okay to go abroad!" By avoiding her husband and letting each other go in this life, He Tianxin can have a different life, and her husband can also meet a woman who truly makes him happy.
As for the past debt, He Tianxin thought that when her husband encountered difficulties, she could just secretly help him.
He Tianxin has decided to go abroad, but He Tianxin is a little confused about which country to go to.
She majored in English and took French as an elective.
If it is strictly for her studies and future, it would be best to go to the United States.
But... He Tianxin looked at her sister who was pretending to be casual and already guessed why her sister asked her about going abroad.
This girl must want to go abroad, and she wants to be with him.
He Tiantian didn't want He Tianxin to be her nanny, but she wanted to go to the same place with her sister so that they could take care of each other.
If two people go together, they can save a lot of money such as rent.
Parents will also feel more at ease.
Although in the past year, He Tiantian has not gone crazy again, nor has she broken down her body because of art.
But parents will still worry about it.
It's okay to be in the capital. Although we are thousands of miles away, we are still in the country.
Once you go abroad and are unfamiliar with the place, Westerners are very particular about privacy, and neighbors may not be as harmonious as they are at home.
If He Tiantian had another "epiphany" and starved to death at home, no one might even find out.
He Tianxin is willing to bet that as long as He Tiantian tells her parents that she wants to study abroad, their parents will definitely think wildly.
Maybe, my biological mother Tian Shumin will come to "study with me" across the ocean.
My parents are almost 50 years old and they feel uncomfortable even going to the capital, let alone going abroad?
He Tiantian wanted to study in the same country as He Tianxin because of these considerations.
As a considerate and sensible girl, He Tianxin naturally did not want her biological mother to have to leave her hometown at such an early age.
"Go to Paris. The University of Paris III is quite suitable for you. Whether I become a teacher or a full-time translator after I return to China, it will be a good qualification!"
He Tianxin secretly made up her mind and said to He Tiantian seriously.
He Tiantian's eyes lit up, but she also knew in her heart that her sister would choose to go to Paris instead of the United States, which has more famous international schools, probably because of her.
"Sister, let's go together! I want to take the entrance examination to the Academy of Fine Arts in Paris, and I also want to open my own art exhibition in Paris!"
He Tiantian kept her gratitude in her heart, but her face still looked heartless and innocent.
"Okay! Together!"
He Tianxin also smiled. They are biological sisters. If there is no knot in their hearts, they must get along well with each other.
It will be a wonderful memory for the two of them to study abroad together in the future.
Now that they decided to go to Paris, the sisters began to make preparations.
Fortunately, He Tiantian doesn’t have many hard language requirements.
If He Tianxin wants to apply for graduate school, she needs to ensure 500 hours of French study and pass the tef or tcf exam.
She took French as an elective when she was in college, and she still spent enough time studying the language.
Then only the tef or tcf exam is left.
He Tianxin applied for TEF. Her French is really good and she successfully got a score of more than 200.
The next step is to prepare all kinds of information and apply for postgraduate studies at the University of Paris III.
He Tiantian also started organizing his own works.
Teacher Lu Hongbo wrote him a letter of recommendation and found several friends in Paris.
Teacher Feng from the gallery is also very helpful.
He had held a joint exhibition with a gallery in Paris and was considered a trading partner, so he gave the gallery owner's contact information to He Tiantian.
Although it is not a well-known large gallery, it is still a regular gallery and has signed several famous painters.
If He Tiantian can sign a contract with such a gallery, it can be regarded as having one foot in the Paris art circle.
He Guotai and Tian Shumin started various purchases, wishing they could furnish their home for their two daughters.
Tian Shumin said more than once: "How about I send you to Paris, rent a good house for you, and watch you successfully enter school, and then I come back?"
He Tianxin and He Tiantian objected together, "Mom, you don't even speak French, so you can't help me if you go!"
It's not as good as the two sisters. At least there is no language barrier.
"How about I contact an agency? They specialize in this, so they must understand it!"
Tian Shumin did not give up and made another suggestion.
He Tiantian & He Tianxin:……
We are not going to those pheasant universities, so why do we need an agency?
Besides, He Tiantian has a few acquaintances in Paris because of the relationship between Teacher Lu and Teacher Feng.
It's too big of a deal to bother anyone. There's no problem in renting a house or finding a homestay.
After much persuasion, the two sisters finally gave up all of Tian Shumin's unreliable ideas.
After the Spring Festival, He Tianxin's application was approved and she got an offer from Third University.
So, the two sisters packed their luggage, took the issued passports and checks, and headed directly to Paris.
On the plane, everything went smoothly, and I even met an international student who also went to Paris to study.
He Tianxin has lived two lives and is a good social person, and the young man named Cheng Daqi is also a good talker.
The two of them had a heated exchange across the aisle.
They exchanged contact information with each other, and Cheng Daqi also pulled He Tianxin into one of their Chinese student groups.
He Tiantian:...That’s amazing, my sister!
Before we even got to Paris, we had already penetrated into someone else's house.
"...Your sister is quite quiet. Like you, she also studies language and literature?"
He Tiantian complained secretly, but she didn't expect that she was also the target of discussion.
He Tianxin shook her head, her face full of pride: "My sister is a painter. She graduated from Central America and is now going to Paris to continue her studies!"
"Awesome! He is an artist!" Cheng Daqi's eyes lit up.
By the way, these days, more and more students are studying abroad at their own expense, and basically their families are not poor.
However, if you pay your own money and let your children learn the art of burning money, you are not simply "not poor", but you are a wealthy family.
Not to mention, people would get two of them as a gift at home.
Tsk tsk, I really can’t do it without any financial resources.
Of course, Cheng Daqi's family is not short of money, but it is quite pleasant to meet people of the "same class".
If there is a party or a relatively high-end event in the future, it won't be a loss of status if you invite the other party.
"It's okay, okay, I just have talent!"
He Tianxin is very much like those "humble" parents who say "it's okay", but in fact they are Versailles.
Cheng Daqi:......
What I said makes it hard for me to continue.
However, Cheng Daqi still has a good impression of the He family sisters.
Seeing as Wen Wen Jingjing still has some money at home, there won't be much trouble making friends with her.
Cheng Daqi wanted to make friends, and He Tianxin also wanted to know more about the situation from the old bird, and the conversation between the two became more and more harmonious.
From Cheng Daqi's words, He Tianxin learned about the pros and cons of renting a house and homestay.
It seems that we still need to rent a house.
Firstly, it is a transportation problem, and secondly, there is more personal space.
Anyway, the He family does not lack the few hundred euros in rent.
When renting a house, there are many details that need to be paid attention to.
As a "senior" who has stayed in Paris for two years, Cheng Daqi is indeed very experienced.
"You can find us Chinese students to share a flat. The group I told you about will often post information about shared flats or rentals."
Cheng Daqi introduced it carefully and asked enthusiastically, "By the way, will anyone pick you up when you get there? If not, I can help!"
Just as He Tianxin was about to shake her head, He Tiantian interrupted: "Yes!"
Before getting on the plane, she received a text message from Teacher Feng.
Recently, Teacher Feng strongly recommended He Tiantian to the gallery owner in Paris.
He praised her directly and said that she was born with extraordinary talent, as if she was a rare genius.
The key is that He Tiantian has the "hype" selling point - she is young, beautiful, and a female painter.
The gallery owner named Paul didn't quite believe Teacher Feng's flattery, but he still became a little interested in He Tiantian.
It happened that the past two days were not too busy, so Paul wanted to pick up the plane and take a closer look at He Tiantian...
