When we arrived at Lin Shitian's house, we saw more than a dozen cars parked on the slope leading up to his house.
Panda is here again?
Lin Hao and Wu Ruolan glanced at each other, doubts welling up in their hearts. They quickly walked up and outside the courtyard, they saw that it was packed with people.
Seeing such a situation, Lin Hao and Wu Ruolan were startled again, thinking that something had happened again. However, when they came closer and took a closer look, they found that the people surrounding the yard were all reporters wearing vests and carrying long guns and short cannons.
"Click! Click!" The sound of the camera shutter kept ringing, and the dazzling light of the flash kept falling on Lin Shitian, who was standing in the front. Standing next to him was a man in a suit and leather shoes, with oily hair and a pink face.
A middle-aged fat man. You can tell at a glance that he is either the boss or the boss.
At this moment, the two of them were shaking hands and smiling at the camera. There was an easel between them, and there was a painting on the easel, which was a watercolor painting of a beautiful woman half-turned out of a bath.
Isn't this the painting style that Lin Shitian is best at?
Could it be that this is the bathing picture that Lin Shitian drew for Su Qing before?
In the embarrassment of life, he finally took out this painting and sold it?
Didn’t you say that you would never betray me no matter what?
Lin Hao was puzzled. He looked past them and looked at the painting carefully, but he couldn't find anything that looked like Su Qing.
It's strange. Could it be that she couldn't recognize Su Qing when she took off her clothes? No, she saw it when she was naked.
Just when he was wondering, the handshake between Lin Shitian and the middle-aged man had ended, and the flashing lights began to stop.
The middle-aged man said: "Teacher Lin, next time you publish a new work, please notify me as soon as possible, okay?"
"Okay!" Lin Shitian nodded in agreement, and then said: "But if Mr. Chen comes over to buy paintings next time, can you please avoid such a scene again?"
Mr. Chen smiled and said: "This is your first work after recovering from your injury. It is extremely precious and rare, so I want to promote it to you!"
Lin Shitian smiled bitterly and said nothing more.
The reporters who were taking pictures quickly rushed over, stretched out their microphone recorders in front of Lin Shitian, and started asking questions.
A reporter asked: "Teacher Lin, there is a report that you were in a car accident and can no longer hold a paintbrush in your hand? Is this true or false?"
Another reporter asked: "Teacher Lin, if you really can no longer paint, did you paint this painting before, or did you ask someone else to write it for you?"
Another reporter asked: "Teacher Lin, could you please reveal the price for which this painting was sold to Mr. Chen?"
Another reporter echoed: "Yes, Teacher Lin, I am also curious."
Another reporter said: "If that doesn't work, you can just give me a few numbers."
The questions asked by media reporters are often sharp, and you must be careful when answering. If you are not careful, they may seize the topic and make a big fuss.
Although Lin Shitian has not been a celebrity for some time, it does not mean that he has no experience. On the contrary, after going through the ups and downs, his mentality has become indifferent and he no longer cares about the gains and losses of so many favors and humiliations, so what does he do?
He didn’t explain, he just smiled calmly, then picked up the paintbrush placed aside, dabbed some paint on it, and then signed the vest of the reporter who stood in front of him and had the most pointed question.
Give your own name - Lin Shitian.
The font is like a dragon and a phoenix, flexible and stretched, with a graceful charm. From a distance, it looks like a golden dragon with teeth and claws.
After signing his name, Lin Shitian threw down his paintbrush and said with a smile: "Journalist friend, the value of your vest has skyrocketed. A hundred years from now, it can even be left to your descendants as a legacy!"
The reporter: "..."
Lin Shitian ignored him and bowed his hands to everyone: "Sorry, fellow journalists, I will not accept any interviews for the time being."
A group of reporters naturally refused to give up and continued to ask endless questions.
When Lin Hao saw this, he wanted to step forward to help him out, but after thinking about it again, he held back, because if Lin Shitian really recovered his ability to paint, such scenes would be encountered frequently in the future, and he would have to
You have to learn to deal with it on your own.
Lin Shitian saw that everyone was entangled, and he did not compromise and accepted the interview. Instead, he said to the middle-aged man next to him: "Mr. Chen, the painting is here, and the photos are also taken. Can you please take the painting and leave with the reporter friends?"
?”
Mr. Chen was a little embarrassed. He was a die-hard fan of Lin Shitian. The reason why he invited so many reporters was not malicious at all. He really wanted to do some publicity for him and at the same time increase the value of this painting.
But since Lin Shitian didn't like it, he could only say sensibly: "I'm sorry, Teacher Lin!"
Lin Shitian said: "It doesn't matter, I hope we can meet again!"
Mr. Chen stretched out his hand again and said: "I will definitely do it, I will definitely do it!"
After Mr. Chen and his team all left, Lin Shicai breathed a long sigh of relief. He hadn't faced such a scene for a long time, and he was somewhat unaccustomed to it.
When he was about to turn around and enter the house, he finally saw Lin Hao and Wu Ruolan standing by the door.
"You..." Lin Shitian was confused when his eyes touched the brown paper bag in Lin Hao's hand. His face suddenly sank and he said angrily: "Lin Hao, do you really look down on me that much?"
If it had been anyone else, Lin Hao might have used anger to control his anger, but he knew Lin Shitian's character very well. This guy was born in the year of the Ox, the kind that would drive him backwards if he was not led away. It was useless to be tough with him. He
He will only be tougher than you, so he said with a playful smile: "Brother Shi Tian, why are you so angry? Did my sister-in-law give you some gunpowder this morning?"
Lin Shitian: "You..."
Lin Hao said: "I just think it's a little strange that you suddenly gave me so much money. I wanted to come over and see if you robbed a bank or won a welfare lottery, and by the way, see if you can make any profit."
Lin Shitian asked angrily: "Stop trying to bully me, what are you doing with this bag?"
"Oh!" Lin Hao raised the cowhide bag in his hand, "You said this, I was afraid that this might be stolen money. You know, I am a good citizen who abides by laws and disciplines. If you really rob a bank, I will
Take the initiative to return the stolen goods and seek leniency. But if you really won the big lottery, wouldn't this bag be full yet? I'll put some more back in."
Facing this guy who had completely lost his appearance after taking off his white coat, Lin Shizhen didn't know whether to be angry, laugh, or cry. After staring at him for a while, he finally said without temper: "Alright.
What are you doing standing there, come in!"
Lin Hao and Wu Ruolan walked into the house. When they entered, they found that his home had completely changed. Before, the home was empty, all the furniture and furnishings had been cleared away, and it couldn't be more shabby. But now
But it has changed a lot. Not only has it been renovated, but it has also been equipped with high-end furniture, tea sets, air conditioners, TVs, stereos... and all the appliances and facilities.
Looking at the furnishings on the first floor, Lin Hao and Wu Ruolan were a little confused and couldn't react.
Lin Shitian smiled and said: "What are you doing? Sit down!"
Lin Hao pointed around and said: "Brother Shi Tian, this..."
Lin Shitian said: "Oh, these were all purchased by your sister-in-law after she paid her salary. After taking Miss Xia's 300,000 yuan, your sister-in-law said she would give them all to you, but I think this home is not decent at all, plus
The child is young and everything costs money when he is born, so let her not give it to you yet, since you don’t seem to have anything to spend money on anyway.”
Lin Hao sweated and corrected: "I don't have any money to spend, okay!"
At this time, an aunt who was nearly forty years old came out of the room with a child in her arms. Apparently this was the nanny hired by Lin Shitian.
Lin Hao liked children very much, and Lin Shitian's son was very chubby and cute, so he couldn't help but go up and take him into his hands and hug him.
After teasing for a while, Lin Hao asked: "Since my sister-in-law's salary is all spent on the family, where did the three hundred thousand you gave me come from?"
Lin Shitian said: "I originally said I would tell you this matter later, but I didn't expect you to actually come to my door!"
Lin Hao said: "Since I've found you, let's talk about it!"
"Actually, it's not a secret anymore!" Lin Shitian pointed to the yard outside, "You saw it just now. I painted a new painting and sold it, so I got money! I originally wanted to keep a low profile.
, I didn’t expect that Mr. Chen summoned a large group of reporters.”
Lin Hao smiled and said: "Isn't that very good? You will definitely be on the headlines of the newspaper tomorrow, and then you will become famous again!"
Lin Shitian said: "What do you mean? Whether they report it or not, my reputation is still there and my paintings are still selling. I don't care about their reports!"
Lin Hao said: "Okay, you are awesome, come on, tell me, how much did you sell for that broken painting just now?"
Lin Shitian was so angry that he asked, "Is that a broken painting?"
Lin Hao said: "You didn't even show anything, how can you not call it a show?"
Lin Shitian: "..."
Lin Hao urged: "Tell me quickly, how much will it cost?"
Lin Shitian said lovelessly: "How can you, a big man, gossip like those reporters?"
Lin Hao said: "I just want to know!"
Lin Shitian said: "Two and a half million!"
Lin Hao almost jumped up from the sofa when he heard this, "What the hell, just a broken painting like that, sold for more than two million?"
Lin Shitian was completely angry, "If you continue to say that my paintings are bad, I will fall out with you! This is art, do you know art?"
Yes, Lin Shitian's paintings are art in the eyes of others, but to Lin Hao, they are too hard to use as toilet paper!
Lin Hao waved his hands feebly and said: "Anyway, I was defeated. It's more than two million. How many patients do I have to see to earn it! That Mr. Chen, he has so much money that he has nowhere to throw it, and he still has water in his head.
.”
"Besides money, what else do you know?" Lin Shitian gave him a strange look, and then said: "This is art. Art is priceless. If I sold it to him for more than two million, I still think it's cheap!"
Lin Hao said: "Brother Shi Tian, just be content, this is a good fit for you!"
Lin Shitian said: "Suitable? Do you know what the price of my previous paintings is now? If he hadn't paid me half of the money in advance, I wouldn't have sold it to him..."
Lin Hao interrupted him: "I mean this number suits you very well!"
