“I’ll call the shots on whoever will be given the first prize. What are they going to do about that?”
Everyone in the manor nodded hearing what Wu Wenshan’s said. As the No.1 painter in Jinling, Master Wu had the right to be proud.
They turned a blind eye to Zhao Yuanliang’s behavior. After all, the Zhao family was one of the richest families in Jinling. Who would dare say no?
...
At 2:30 p.m., the gallery arranged Ye Chen and the parents who were there to enter the lounge. Apart from Li Yongmin, the rest of the parents were restless and nervous. Clearly, they were worried whether their children would stand out in the competition.
Only Ye Chen and Li Yongmin seed relaxed.
From ti to ti, Qianqian would look in and asked nervously, “Big brother, will Sister ngng win a certificate?”
What she said naturally attracted the attention of the rest. At that mont, countless gazes were on Ye Chen.
“Believe in your Sister ngng. Not only will she win, she’ll even win the first prize,” Ye Chen nodded with a smile.
Although he had never really seen his daughter drawing, he believed in her.
The reason being she was Mad Southern Ye’s daughter.
Although he was clueless in art, he knew that art required a person’s sense of space, vision, and ability to capture art.
His daughter ate dicinal pills like candies, and she had improved trendously in all aspects. It was just like how the little girl kicked the soccer ball and it bursted into pieces last ti.
After eating so many dicinal pills, if she still could not win against a group of people her age, then Ye Chen would question his dicine refining skills.
Right after he said that, a middle-aged woman with heavy makeup could not help but sneered, “So you’re saying your daughter would definitely win the first prize?”
“Ms. Shen Fang is right. Brother, don’t be arrogant. Which children who are participating in this competition aren’t outstanding in school?”
A man wearing a pair of gold-frad glasses added, “Take , Yang Ye’s son as an example. He studied art at the age of three, and for that, I even asked an art professor from Tiannan University to personally guide him.”
“That’s right. I’m saying my daughter would definitely win the first prize!”
“...”
At that mont, the entire lounge beca tense. Everyone was boasting about their child or mocking Ye Chen for making such a boastful pledge.
Ye Chen smiled, he did not mind that. After all, children would compare their fathers while parents would compare their children. It was human nature.
“Everybody’s child is good.”
Li Yongmin smiled and took the initiative to help Ye Chen out, “I don’t think my little fatty has the destiny nor the ability to win. I forced him to co today because I wanted him to see the world.”
From Li Yongmin’s perspective, even though Li Erguo had so talent in art, he did not look like he would beco an artist at all. Even though Li Yongmin would scold and beat his son, he just wanted him to go with the flow in life.
Ding, ding, ding!
As they were talking, the bell rang.
“The competition is about to begin!”
Soone said that, and the entire lounge fell into silence. All of the parents could not help but look at the big screen before them. It was showing the competition venue.
It was a hall that took up about 200 square ters. The hall was filled with people, most of them were children from all over the country. There were about a hundred of them, and there were three judges sitting on the stage.
“That’s my child, Xiaohai.”
“Good luck, Xiaomu! Mommy believes in you!”
“...”
Many parents could not help but cheer when they saw their children on the screen.
Ye Chen smiled too.
He saw ngng. The girl was standing behind Cang Shuxue with the little fatty Li Erguo. Compared to the other children who looked nervous, the two kids did not seem to care. They were even whispering to each other.
Li Yongmin could not help but laughed when he saw that, “You little brat, you’re still in the mood to whisper to your friend at a ti like this. I’ll smack your butt hard when you get out!”
The seven-year-old boy from the Zhao family was surrounded by people as if he was a treasure. He held a phone in his hand and played the ga on his phone with pride.
“Hello, children and teachers!”
A woman in qipao walked out with a microphone in her hand, “The the of today’s art competition is ‘Science Fiction’. All of you are the new generation of the country. Your wisdom and imagination will determine the developnt of the world. As the saying goes, ‘The more powerful the younger generation is, the more powerful China will beco’.
Therefore, please create an art piece on the spot around the the of ‘Science Fiction’. There is a ti limit of 30 minutes. During the duration of ti, no talking is allowed. The drawing style is based on your imagination. There are no restrictions on the materials used for drawing. There are also tools for drawing that will be provided to you. The staff will distribute them to you later.”
Following a round of applause, a few staff in uniform began distributing the drawing tools, while all the participating children sat down under the arrangent of the teacher.
Ding, ding, ding!
“Begin!”
A lady from the judging panel rang the bell.
The whole place fell silent, and all the children started working on their ideas. It looked like the college entrance exam.
Even Li Erguo, the little fatty, was rubbing his chin with a troubled expression as he pretended to ditate. He cursed the terrible judges.
‘Why did they co up with the the ‘Science Fiction’ instead of making it sothing related to food?’
He wondered if ngng had thought of an idea of what to draw.
He could not help but turn to look at ngng, who was sitting in the back row. She had already picked up a crayon and started drawing, as if she had already thought about what to draw earlier.
“W-What...”
The little fatty’s mouth was wide open.
The art teacher, Cang Shuxue, was secretly anxious, ‘ngng, this is a formal competition. There is only one chance. You should at least think carefully before drawing. Didn’t I tell you that before?’
She thought that ngng was worried that she would not have enough ti, so she started drawing imdiately.
Many people witnessed that. Everyone was shocked at first, but they snickered coldly to themselves. Even the three judges were no exception.
The parents who were waiting outside could not help but look at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled without saying anything.
At the sa ti in the manor on the mountain behind Jinling Gallery, several experts from the art industry were also watching the competition through the big screen.
When they saw that ngng was the first to draw, many people shook their heads.
“Calmness and composure are required in art. With such impetuousness, it’s destined that you won’t succeed in art!”
As the No.1 painter in Jinling, Wu Wenshan shut his eyes to rest, as if he did not care about anything.
After all, at his level, there were only a handful of people who could be his match in the art industry. How would he be interested in a competition among children?
If it was not for Zhao Yang from the Zhao family, he would not have co today.
At this mont, soone suddenly exclaid, “Look, what is that girl drawing?
