After a pause, Cheng Huanchong added: "You don't have to go through systematic study or professional training to be able to draw.
In my opinion, painting requires more talent and enthusiasm than high-level systematic learning."
When he started painting, it wasn't because of his professional studies that he took the initiative to like it.
He likes it because of his natural love, and it is precisely because of this natural love that he can grit his teeth and persevere until now.
"good."
Lin Qingzhi said warmly: "There is a certain truth, but it is not entirely correct.
Many talented painters in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, finally became great talents through professional enlightenment and unremitting hard work."
Cheng Huanchong shook his head: "For me, if you have time and are interested, then learn more.
If you don't think much about it, forget it.
Because I have enough foundation and financial conditions to support my passion for this industry.
I am learning every day and making progress every day, and I don’t have to go to any regular school to get those formulaic and large-scale education.”
Not to mention the hundreds of millions of assets left to him by his family, his daily net income is more than tens of thousands just by relying on the paintbrush in his own hand, and he has enough capital and confidence to choose his own path.
Studying abroad may be the icing on the cake, but it is by no means necessary or required.
In addition, he also had a little thought of his own - he found that he didn't want to leave Lin Qingzhi for too long, was reluctant to leave, and couldn't do it.
Lin Qingzhi understood what he meant and smiled slightly.
"Just figure it out yourself.
Of course, you also have to convince your uncle and aunt.
They are all very open-minded people and should support your final idea."
Cheng Huanchong shook his head: "Not necessarily... My father is sometimes quite stubborn. He is more traditional than my mother, and his thoughts are more stubborn and old-fashioned.
In his opinion, reading more books is definitely a good thing.
But even if it’s good, it may not be suitable for me.”
Lin Qingzhi warmly advised: "Actually, whether you go or not, it doesn't make much difference to you now.
But in the long run, being able to go to a more open place and broaden your horizons will definitely do more good than harm."
Cheng Huanchong was in disbelief: "You really want me to go?
real?"
"do not wish."
Lin Qingzhi stared at him with burning eyes and said word by word: "I won't give it up."
Cheng Huanchong's ears turned red and he hesitated: "I knew... After a lot of analysis, in the final analysis, emotions are better than reason."
"That's not necessarily true."
Lin Qingzhi chuckled: "If you want to go, I will naturally be more rational than emotional and will fully support you in going.
You have to pursue knowledge and broaden your horizons. No matter how reluctant I am, I can only endure it.
You and I are still young, and three years is not a long time.
If the love between two people lasts for a long time, why would it last day and night?"
Cheng Huanchong glared at him funny and asked: "Really?
Sure?
Then I really went!"
"Go and go."
Lin Qingzhi thought for a while and said: "I will change the plane to a bigger one. It is best to put half of my family on the plane, and then I will go to you every now and then.
The school over there will not force students to live on campus. I will buy a large apartment near your school and decorate it in the style you like.
Then you can live comfortably and paint with peace of mind."
When Cheng Huanchong saw his expression of "I have already made arrangements", he felt dumbfounded.
"You could just say you want to go over there to study with me, wouldn't that be enough?"
Lin Qingzhi shook his head: "I may not be able to accompany you throughout the study, but I will try my best to arrange it."
Cheng Huanchong rolled his eyes and joked: "You don't work to make money?
You have hundreds of people eating with you, how can you leave them behind?
Three years! Not three days!"
"Salaries and bonuses remain the same."
Lin Qingzhi explained confidently: "There is an old saying in our industry, 'If you don't open for three years, you will eat for three years if you open.'"
I've been open for so many years, it's not as long as your three years."
After a pause, he lowered his voice: "It may be too high-key to say it, but I have always had no reservations about you.
As long as we unscrupulous descendants don't act recklessly and squander our money, my family's assets will be enough for dozens of lifetimes even if we don't make any money."
Cheng Huanchong was amused by him and looked at him sideways.
"Okay, I can reconsider."
Lin Qingzhi nodded calmly: "So, there is no need to make the choice to give up just because you can't bear to leave me.
Take that reason out of the equation and think again.”
Cheng Huanchong was completely seen through and was secretly a little embarrassed, but when he thought about it, he admitted it generously.
"Okay, since you can accompany me to study, I will reconsider it."
Lin Qingzhi encouraged: "You can apply first. Whether you can pass it depends on luck.
Your painting style is very unique, but if you meet a reviewer who doesn't know how to appreciate it, you may not be able to go.
If it was such an unfortunate coincidence, I wouldn't feel regretful or hesitant."
"Right."
Cheng Huanchong chuckled, "If that's true, even if my family tries to persuade me, they have nothing to say."
Lin Qingzhi nodded and raised his chin slightly: "First sort out the information and then send it over for a try.
After application review and interview, whether admission will be determined will not be known until at least the end of the year.
As for whether to go or not, we will make plans when the time comes and there is no rush."
"Fine."
Cheng Huanchong said: "It can be done in a day or two. Just write one more application later."
Lin Qingzhi listened to the sound of gurgling water and raised his eyes to the blue sky.
"Ah Qing!"
Cheng Huanchong suddenly interrupted his thoughts, pointed to the mountain not far away and asked with a smile: "Is that the maple leaf forest over there?
Yes or no?"
Lin Qingzhi smiled and nodded: "In late autumn, I will bring you over to see the maple leaves.
The maple leaf forest here is extremely beautiful, especially when it’s yellow, red and green, it’s no exaggeration to say it’s a visual feast.”
"Wow~~" Cheng Huanchong's eyes were full of yearning: "Okay! I will definitely come then!"
Lin Qingzhi explained: “I have been planting it for several years, but I haven’t come here much.
I came here once with my parents before, but unfortunately I came and left in a hurry and only stayed for one day.
But the maple leaf forest is indeed extremely beautiful, and the leaves in the frost are as red as the flowers in February, which is definitely not a lie."
"That's because you're too busy!"
Cheng Huanchong teased: "When your eyes are full of gold, no matter how beautiful the scenery around you is, it will be difficult to attract you."
Lin Qingzhi glanced at him fondly, as if sad and helpless.
"Who made you show up so late, leaving me alone and lifeless.
No matter how beautiful the scenery is, if there are no people around to keep it company, no matter how beautiful it is, it won’t be enough to attract me to stop.”
Cheng Huanchong laughed, strode over to him, and hugged him with his long arms.
"Okay! Then I'll work harder. Even if I have to climb mountains and ridges, even if I have to live in deep mountains and forests, I have to accompany you a few more times - just think of it as compensation for a lonely person."
Lin Qingzhi looked at his handsome and sunny side face, smiled softly, and held his hand at will.
"With you, I am no longer alone.
From now on, we will come together every late autumn."
