Chapter 176 Being Too Good-Looking Can Be So Troublesome
In the following days, Lin Chen's life began to follow a routine, much like going to work.
He would bring his practice tools to the photography studio every day.
He practiced calligraphy and painting there.
And we used a camera to film every single practice session.
When I got home that night, I edited the videos I had taken that day.
Select the videos that you think are good and upload them to Bilibili.
As the number of videos increased, Lin Chen's Bilibili followers grew from zero at the beginning to a visible rate.
But compared to his number of followers on Weibo, this number of followers on Bilibili is completely insignificant.
Moreover, so far, it seems that Lin Chen's fans are attracted by his good looks rather than his talent.
Wow! Where did this handsome guy come from? Your handwriting is so cool! So sexy!
"Are you referring to words or people, upstairs?"
"Honey, I didn't pay any attention to the video content. I was too busy looking at the uploader's face. I really want to know what you look like under that mask?"
"I seriously suspect that the content creator is from ancient times? How can someone wear Hanfu so well?"
"Family members, who understands? I originally came to see the painting, but I got completely mesmerized by this masked face. Now all I can think about is what the uploader really looks like?"
"Does the content creator want to become an internet celebrity? I'm from a PR company. With your looks, earning a million a month is just around the corner!"
"Is the PR firm upstairs called White Horse? Interested in signing me? Free is fine too!"
Lin Chen's lips twitched violently a few times upon seeing these comments.
I asked you to evaluate my work, why are you evaluating my appearance?
Sigh, even with a mask on, I still can't hide my stunning good looks.
Being too good-looking can be so troublesome...
Lin Chen put down his phone and looked back at the drawing paper in front of him.
Today he wants to practice traditional Chinese painting.
However, the theme for the painting has not yet been decided.
"I wonder where Xiaoxiao is now?"
Suddenly, Lin Chen's mind was filled with thoughts of Chen Xiaoxiao.
But this longing lasted only a moment before being replaced by a sudden burst of inspiration.
Lin Chen had already figured out what he could draw.
He wanted to draw himself and Chen Xiaoxiao.
Not long ago, the two went to Melbourne together.
Hand in hand, we strolled through the Melbourne campus in the heavy snow.
Those beautiful memories, etched in his heart, are his best source of inspiration.
Soon, Lin Chen picked up his brush and turned it into a painting.
When he got home that evening, Lin Chen first edited the video and uploaded it, then took a shower.
A dozen minutes later, Lin Chen returned to the computer, wanting to see how his videos had been received over the past two days.
Upon opening the backend, Lin Chen discovered that the response to today's video was better than he had expected.
Especially in the comments section, after so many videos had laid the groundwork, there are finally quite a few reliable comments starting to appear.
"What a hidden gem of a content creator! I'm starting to believe what some people said before. You're not really from ancient times, are you? Your Chinese painting skills have surpassed those of graduates from ordinary art schools!"
"It's really impressive. My friend is an art student, but compared to this content creator, his drawings are practically at a kindergarten level."
"Wow, that's awesome! This level of skill should be considered professional, right?"
"Young man, is your painting about lovers? It seems to express a deep longing for your beloved! I really like this painting. Do you plan to sell it?"
Lin Chen was taken aback when he saw that someone actually wanted to buy his work.
This seems to be the first time he's heard that someone wants to buy his paintings.
This comment made him happiest, compared to the previous compliments about his looks.
It seems that finally someone is starting to appreciate my work.
With someone liking him, he felt more confident about preparing a gift for Chen Xiaoxiao later.
With a bright smile on his face, Lin Chen immediately sent a private message to the netizen named "Holy Mother of Yaochi".
"Do you like my painting?"
The other party replied immediately after I sent the private message.
"Yes, yes! Can you sell it to me, sir? If so, can you add me on WeChat? I'll transfer the money to you directly."
"Forget about WeChat, just give me a phone charger. Give me your address, and I'll charge it however much you want."
Lin Chen refused the other party's request for his WeChat.
His WeChat account is, after all, a private one, so it's not convenient for him to share it with others. Anyway, Bilibili can sponsor him with donations, even though the platform will take a cut.
But Lin Chen was willing to sell his paintings not for money, but to find out how much his works were valued by others.
Soon after, Lin Chen saw a notification pop up on the platform.
The Holy Mother of Yaochi actually recharged herself!
And it charged 2000 yuan right away!
Although it was only two thousand, Lin Chen was already very satisfied.
After all, he had heard Cai Hua mention it before.
Even Cai Hua, back then, only sold his first artwork for about 100 yuan.
My starting point was at least twenty times higher than his!
……
"Thank you, I have received your address. I will send it to you by express delivery tomorrow morning."
On the other end of the computer, Su Yao looked at the reply that had taken a long time to appear.
She couldn't help but pout.
"This guy is so stingy! I spent 2000 yuan! Can't he talk to me a little more?"
Su Yao sighed deeply, regretting that she hadn't asked Lin Chen for his WeChat that day.
If I had been braver that day, why would I have had to contact the studio owner afterwards to find out Lin Chen's Bilibili account, and then take a roundabout approach by buying Lin Chen's work to contact him?
I just didn't expect the other party to be so strange, preferring to give the platform a cut rather than give me their WeChat account.
"Doesn't he want others to know his real-life identity?"
Su Yao reopened Lin Chen's video and watched him wearing a mask and wielding a brush.
She suddenly realized that this might actually be true.
Thinking about it, it's fortunate that she left an address in Beijing. If that young man knew that she was the one who wanted to buy the painting, would he refuse to sell it to her?
How strange...
He's so handsome, and his calligraphy and painting skills are so amazing!
Why have I never heard of this person in the industry before?
"It seems Grandpa was right. Your circle doesn't represent everything. There are also experts outside your circle."
……
Early that morning, Lin Chen, carrying his identification documents and writing implements, went to Cai Hua's house.
After arriving at his home, they rode in Cai Hua's car and headed straight for the provincial capital.
Today is the first art competition that Cai Hua has arranged for Lin Chen to participate in.
Dongjiang Province Youth Calligraphy and Painting Competition!
Even though it was just a province-wide competition, winning first place wouldn't guarantee Lin Chen the mission reward.
However, since it is a provincial competition, as long as you can get a ranking, it is equivalent to obtaining an advanced art certificate.
In other words, if Lin Chen wants to qualify for the national competition in a short period of time, he must first win this competition!
