Chapter 1082: Art and Old Buildings

"Thirty-nine, forty, forty-one." Lu Tao did push-ups in Xu Zhisen's suite, because Xu Zhisen wanted to see how his body was doing, and Lu Tao couldn't stand it after doing forty-one.

Shen Long was also doing push-ups in the suite next door. His purpose was completely different from Lu Tao's, and he put in more effort. He persisted longer than Lu Tao, and he didn't stop until the conversation between Lu Tao and Xu Zhisen was over.

The next day, Lu Tao didn't go back to the community. He heard Xia Lin say that he went to Shanghai with Xu Zhisen. Remembering Xu Zhisen's appearance in Shanghai in the TV series, Shen Long laughed. In fact, it was so simple, Xu Zhisen, the big boss, was as unreliable as Andy, the business elite.

A few days later, Shen Long went to an art gallery alone to discuss business. This art gallery is going to have a special exhibition recently, and he wants to find an advertising company to promote it. Now Li Ao feels very relieved about Shen Long, thinking that he can handle it all by himself. This business is indeed the case. Shen Long judged the purpose of the other party's needs and the promotion costs he could bear in a very short period of time, and then proposed several proposals, and reached an intention to continue the cooperation.

If the specific plan they came up with can satisfy the museum, then the business will be theirs; coming out of the office, Shen Long happened to see Lu Tao taking Charlene watching the exhibition, so he went up to say hello.

"Qiangzi, how are you? Have you been fascinated by the works of the masters?" Lu Tao stood in front of an abstract master's work, looking at him, he obviously didn't see the way of this painting.

Shen Long shook his head, "My knowledge reserve is not enough to appreciate the charm of this art."

"You are frank. Many people are afraid that others will think they don't understand. Every time they go to an art exhibition, they have to read some critics' comments in advance, so that they can brag to others." Lu Tao laughed.

"If ordinary people can comment on the quality of art works, how can the art circle maintain its authority and pricing power over works?" Pricing power is obviously more important, and artists also have to make a living. "So modern Works of art are becoming more and more abstract, farther and farther away from ordinary people.”

"In fact, the same is true in ancient China. The audiences of literati paintings and meticulous paintings are obviously different. The difficulty of appreciating literati paintings is much higher than that of meticulous paintings. In the hearts of scholar-bureaucrats, literati paintings have a higher status than meticulous paintings." Shen Long continued.

"In the past, I could really talk to you about this, but now, my art career is over!" Shen Long's words aroused Lu Tao's curiosity, but it was only curiosity, and now he has decided to hang out with Xu Zhisen.

"By the way, Qiangzi, I will go to work in a real estate company in a while. If the company needs to make an announcement, I will try my best to find your company." He is still loyal, and he still remembers Shen Long's kindness to him.

"If you want to bid, just send us an admission letter. After all, you have to rely on yourself to do business. If we don't have the strength to win this project, but you insist on using us, it's not good for you or me. "Shen Long was very calm.

After leaving the art gallery, the three of them went back to No. 109 Andingmen, and a few days later, Shen Long met Lu Tao outside again, but this time it was not Charlene who was with him, but a young girl of seventeen or eighteen. girl.

Eldest sister, you are already twenty-three or fourteen. It is really hard for you to play the role of a seventeen-year-old girl. boy, he was relieved.

"Hey, Qiangzi, why did we meet again here? This is Fang Lingshan, the daughter of my father's colleague.

His father asked me to take her around the capital. "Lu Tao was a little worried that Shen Long might have misunderstood it, so he explained it specifically.

"Come out today to see the venue." Now that the work has been completed, Shen Long can go home. Seeing him driving, Lu Tao simply asks him to help be the driver. If Charlene finds out in the future, he can have an explanation, so the three of them I went to the alley next to me, "In the past, the capital was full of small alleys like this. There were no buildings. At night, children ran around in the alley. There is a water faucet here, where adults wash rice and vegetables, and there are often noises in the alley." The sound of hawking is very nice. Look, isn’t that door very beautiful?”

Fang Lingshan stopped and took a photo with the camera, "It's really beautiful. I used to only know that the capital has the Temple of Heaven in the Forbidden City, but I didn't know that the capital is so delicious."

"Now this smell is gone. Our teacher said that he always hoped that the capital would build a new city to the south and keep the old city as it was, but no one listened. When he talked about the urban construction of the capital, he felt sad."

"Our teacher said that once he came to the mainland to worship Confucius in a temple, and then went to the capital. After seeing the new capital, he cried, saying that China has become another place, not the artistic China written in old books. "Lingshan pretended to be a little grown-up beside Lu Tao, and talked with Lu Tao in a serious manner.

Hearing this, Shen Long couldn't help laughing, "I said, Lu Tao, I grew up in the alley. If you let me live in the alley, I would definitely not want to; why do you like me? Do you have to live in a place like this? I wish our house would be demolished soon so I could live in a big house!"

"As for our teacher, it's even more nonsense. In a city as big as the capital, has our teacher calculated how much it will cost to relocate to the new city? Cities and buildings certainly have artistic attributes, but the more important thing is the practical value, ignoring the practical and only focusing on art. , can the built house be lived in?” In fact, many well-known art buildings will have practical problems to some extent.

The famous Falling Water Villa looks very nice, but when you live in it, you will find that there are many problems such as noise and humidity that cannot be solved. In the end, it can only become a place for people to visit, almost losing its living function.

Fang Lingshan's words are even more meaningless. What is the ancient capital like? It is the mess of Longxugou, the streets are full of cow and horse dung, and the streets are littered with defecation. This kind of place does have a taste, but what about the artistic conception? Let’s forget it.

Lu Tao instinctively wanted to refute, but when he thought that he had already planned to give up art and become a businessman, and if he replaced his old house with a high-end apartment, wouldn't he be happy? So I had to shut up.

"By the way, what does your current company do?" Shen Long changed the subject.

"Real estate development, I am finally able to major in university!" Lu Tao was full of pride.

Well, you are amazing, your father is the leader of the Planning Bureau, and you are engaged in real estate on his site, do you really think that the avoidance mechanism is a dead letter?
