Chapter 896 Borrowing Paintings

Guo Dalu has no favoritism for the current Artists Association!

Just like the Writers Association, many authors with real abilities and ethics have long taken the initiative to leave these associations and refused to join these people. Some powerful calligraphers and painters in the Art Association also have many of them who do not like the chaos in the Art Association and spontaneously withdrew from the Art Association.

In Guo Dalu's view, the Chinese Writers Association and the Artists Association are simply an inexplicable organization. Whether it is a writer or a painter, this is all individual creation and has nothing to do with the system. If they are placed in a yamen-like system, it will instead have a constraint on these people.

Is there no way to be a writer or a painter? The country has no obligation to support them, no need to support them, and no reason to restrain them.

In the past, there was no art collaboration in society. Are there many writers and calligraphers and painters? Art creation depends entirely on strength, and of course it also requires some praise and publicity from everyone, but the premise is that the creator himself is really capable.

However, in this and that associations nowadays, there are very few people who do practical things, and there are many people who don’t do things and get paid. They are all full of official voices and point out their big belly, which makes people feel upset when they look at them.

Guo Dalu was very disgusted with these behaviors, so he naturally disliked the presidents of these associations. This time, when he heard the visit of Li Songtao, the president of the Art Association, he didn't even want to see him, so he said to the doorman: "Just say I don't have time to see him, I'm busy!"

"Mr. Li, Mr. Guo said that he is busy now and has no time to see you. When he has time, you can come to him again!"

The guard at Guo Dalu's house is a bit real and will not say anything tactfully: "Mr. Guo said that the American Association is in chaos and the leader is definitely not a good person. He is too lazy to see him and does not want to see him!"

Li Songtao's face turned red and pale. He stood at the entrance of the Guo family's courtyard and was stunned for a while. Later, after he came to his senses, his chest was so angry that it bulged high, as if it could explode at any time.

He was lucky for a long time before he calmed down. At this moment, his arm could not twist his thighs. Guo Dalu had been arrogant and domineering for a long time. Even if he was the president of the Art Association, he was not good enough in front of Guo Dalu. You should know that no one of the people who were beaten by Guo Dalu was smaller than Li Songtao.

In this case, Li Songtao could only swallow his anger and calm down, and asked the guard: "Mr. Guo is really busy? Little comrade, look at me running here from afar. Mr. Guo didn't even see me. Isn't that a little unkind? Otherwise, what do you think? Look at me at such an old age, it's not easy to run back and forth."

The guard spoke directly, but he was kind-hearted. He had a little understanding of Guo Dalu's condition, so he said to Li Songtao: "President Li, right?"

Li Songtao nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, I am the president of the National Artists Association!"

The guard said: "To be honest, Mr. Guo has been very busy these days. He is now creating a large painting, and no one can disturb him. Even his own children are Guo Chaotian and Guo Chaoyang. Do you know Mr. Guo’s two sons? They are the two little monks in the movie "Wulongyuan". They are now famous!"

Li Songtao smiled and said, "I know this! My wife and I went to the cinema to watch this movie. The two children are really excellent, far exceeding many children of the same age!"

The guard laughed: "Yes, these two children are really useless. Even we think about what delicious food is. They are sweet-mouthed and are very polite to people. Tsk, Mr. Guo is really lucky!"

He said to Li Songtao: "But now even these two children dare not disturb Mr. Guo. Last time, he was beaten by Mr. Guo because he stepped on Mr. Guo's drawing paper. Oh, he was so crying! These two kids were secretly planning to pee on the drawing paper, and then lied that they were urinating at home. However, before the plan was implemented, Mrs. Wang discovered them and threw them into the school and refused to go home!"

"After stepping? Are you ready to pee?"

Li Songtao was both curious and funny: "This child climbed onto the drawing table to step on the drawing paper? He also had to go to the table to pee? This is indeed a bit too naughty!"

The doorman said: "Drawing table? What a joke? Is there a house that big in your painting table?"

Li Songtao was stunned: "A painting of a house is so big? Oh my God, where is it to be hung? Did it be customized by someone else?"

The guard glanced around a few times, then whispered to Li Songtao: "This is what the leader above asked Mr. Guo to create. Mr. Guo said that this is to be hung in the national living room!"

Li Songtao was a little surprised and confused: "National Living Room? Has Mr. Guo's painting level reached this level?"

He was a little incredible: "He actually wanted to create such a large painting alone? The intensity of this work is not ordinary! And for such a large work, no matter the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, it must be specially made. Where did Mr. Guo get these things... Oh, I'm confused. This must be provided by the state. With the state department providing all services, you don't have to worry about the materials first."

Li Songtao said this and said to the guard: "Okay, I already know what's going on. In this creative state, it is indeed not suitable for outsiders to disturb you. Well, if Mr. Guo only completes such a painting by himself, it will take at least one year. Even if the creative process goes well, it will take at least seven or eight months."

He pondered for a moment, and the doorman said, "This is how I don't force myself to enter the Guo family's mansion. I will come here to visit again in half a year, so I won't disturb him now. But it doesn't seem like going back empty-handed. Let's talk to Mr. Guo to see if he can lend me a few masterpieces for us to learn? We can't afford to buy them for a while. Mr. Guo is now a national treasure painter. We can't afford it. We just want to see Mr. Guo's calligraphy and painting skills and learn it."

The guard said, "Then I'll ask you again!"

Li Songtao nodded and said, "Please trouble you, comrade!"

After a while, the guard walked over with a painting and said to Li Songtao: "President Li, this is a sketch by Mr. Guo. You can take it away, but you have to write a note so that you won't be able to lose money in the future!"

Li Songtao carefully took the axis and slowly opened it. When he saw the whole picture clearly, his hand shook and almost threw it away!

"oops!"

His body tilted violently, his face turned pale, and his heart thumped: "I'm scared to death! This tiger seems to be about to rush out!"
