Guo Feng said, "Don't worry too much, Mr. Tang. It's not a big deal for Brother Qin to draw another Lotus Picture of Wu Daozi. At least it won't be worse than He Lizhi's."
It had to be said that He Lizhi did have some painting skills. As time went by, the noise under the stage slowly subsided.
After a while, he began to finish. The brush kept moving on the rice paper, and a delicate and beautiful peony picture appeared on the big electronic screen.
With a shake of his wrist, he sketched the last stroke. A peony stood proudly. It was so beautiful that it made people feel like it was the king of flowers.
Whether they liked He Lizhi or not, everyone couldn't help but admire his painting skills. This painting had indeed reached a very high level.
He Lizhi threw the brush aside and said proudly, "Mr. Gompos, please give me a score!"
As a referee, Gompos came to He Lizhi's peony picture and carefully evaluated it from beginning to end. He kept nodding and said, "Good, your peony picture is really good. It has the charm of Huaxia traditional painting. I give you 85 points!"
Others didn't think much of it, but Tang Qingzhi knew that Gompos had very strict requirements for painting. 85 points was definitely a high score. If it were an ordinary contestant, he might not be able to pass.
He Lizhi was also very satisfied with this result. He turned to look at Qin Haodong and said proudly, "Boy, don't you want to compete with me? It's your turn! "
Qin Haodong didn't seem to see the peony picture. He said lightly, "You even forgot the most basic thing of being a human. I won't compete with you. You don't deserve it."
He Lizhi's expression changed and he said angrily, "What do you mean? Are you kidding me? We've already made a deal, we've already made a bet. "
Everyone's expression changed greatly. Although He Lizhi was despised by everyone, Qin Haodong's behavior of going back on his word was difficult to win everyone's approval.
"What's the hurry? Our bet is still valid, but I have to find a contestant with the same status as you. "
After Qin Haodong said that, he stepped off the stage in front of everyone's surprised eyes and came to a little girl in the front row. The little girl looked to be in her early twenties. She was holding a cute little black poodle in her arms. The puppy was not too big, only about three or four months old. It looked extremely cute.
He smiled at the little girl and said, "Beauty, can you lend me your dog? I'll return it to you as soon as the competition ends. "
"Alright, I can lend it to you!"
The little girl didn't understand what Qin Haodong was going to do, but out of her trust in him, she handed over the puppy without hesitation.
Qin Haodong returned to the stage with the poodle in his arms. Everyone was confused. What did he mean by bringing a dog up? Was he going to use a dog to compete with He Lizhi?
He Lizhi said angrily, "What do you mean?"
Qin Haodong smiled slightly and said, "It's a competition. The status of the contestants must be equal. You are a dog raised by the Nihon people, and this is a dog raised by the Huaxia people. You two dogs are just opponents."
Being called a lackey in public, He Lizhi flew into a rage out of humiliation and shouted, "Bullshit! Are you going to compete or not? If not, I'll cut off your hand!"
Qin Haodong didn't care. He turned to Gompos and said, "Mr. Gompos, can I let this dog compete in painting?"
Gompos was also a little confused. He had never seen such a competition. He thought for a moment and said, "No matter what method you use, as long as you take out a painting in the end, it's OK. But there's one thing. You have to fulfill the final bet yourself."
Qin Haodong looked at He Lizhi and said, "See? The rules allow it. Today, I'll use this dog to win against you."
"Boy, you're just playing with words. When you lose, I'll cut off your hand."
He Lizhi was so angry that he almost went crazy. However, he didn't believe that a dog could win against him. He secretly made up his mind to cut off the hands of this abominable toy boy later.
Tang Qingzhi, who was under the stage, stamped his feet and beat his chest and said, "This young man is still too impulsive. Although he looks very happy, he will definitely lose this competition."
Lang Sanyuan shook his head and said, "I thought he had great skills. It turns out that he's a brainless guy."
Gao Fengwen and Guo Feng were also nervous. They had thought that as long as Qin Haodong could draw the Lotus Painting, he would at least not lose. They hadn't expected that he would get a dog.
On the foreigners' side, Yagyuu Hirai laughed and said, "Idiot, a complete idiot. I was a little worried that he would disrupt our plan, but now it seems that it's completely unnecessary. Later, we'll cut off his hands so that he won't be able to participate in the Chinese medicine competition. "
Chiba Mieko also relaxed her frown. Qin Haodong had always been a big problem for her, so it would be best to get rid of him. However, she still couldn't understand. This young man didn't look like a brainless person. How could he do such an impulsive thing?
Qin Haodong didn't care what the others thought. He directly asked the staff to fetch three buckets of water and a small bucket of ink.
After everything was ready, he rolled the little poodle in the ink and threw it on the rice paper on the table.
Seeing that Qin Haodong was not joking and had really put a puppy on the paper, there was an uproar on and off the stage. Using a dog to paint, wanting to win over a real artist? Even if one thought about it with one's heels, it was also impossible.
The little poodle was only three or four months old. It had been in a panic when it left its owner's arms. It had just rolled in the ink and immediately ran forward after being released.
Maybe because it was too flustered and its feet were a little slippery after being stained with ink, it suddenly fell to the ground after running a few steps. The ink on its body was black. The little poodle was even more confused. It got up and continued to run forward. Soon, it ran through the rice paper.
Qin Haodong took the little poodle and turned around to give it to Qian Duoduo. "Brother Qian, please help me clean it and send it back to the little girl."
Qian Duoduo didn't understand what he was going to do, but he could only do as he was told.
No one paid attention to this. Everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Haodong's drawing paper. Because the paper had been dipped in too much ink, the footprints left by the little poodle and the marks that it had just fallen on were all covered with ink, making it look like a pool of water.
The footprints were better. They were shaped like plum blossoms. However, the marks it had just fallen on were a mess. They didn't look like anything.
"Qin Haodong, this is the painting you made with a dog. Do you think you can beat me with this?"
He Lizhi laughed. His face was full of ferocity. He seemed to have seen the scene of Qin Haodong admitting defeat.
Yagyuu Hirai, who was under the stage, laughed unscrupulously and shouted, "Is this also called a painting? Isn't it much better to get someone to sprinkle some ink on it? "
Chiba Mieko did not speak, but there was a smile at the corner of her mouth. She had used all the thinking methods in her mind, but she had not thought of a way for Qin Haodong to turn the tables.
Although the Huaxia people under the stage did not laugh, everyone was disappointed. In their opinion, Qin Haodong was bound to lose. How could such a messy painting be compared with the Peony Painting?
Gompos shook his head. Obviously, he did not agree with the painting in front of him. He said to Qin Haodong, "Mr. Qin, is your painting done?"
Qin Haodong said, "Don't worry. There's still a little bit left!"
"What do you mean? Didn't you say you wanted to make a painting with a dog? The dog has been taken away. Do you still want to continue painting? "
He Lizhi's face was full of ferocity.
"Since you let the dog be your opponent, of course I won't use the brush. However, this painting is still lacking the last step."
The last step? What did he mean? Everyone's heads were dizzy. They could not figure out what this young man wanted to do. Could he change the result without using the brush?
Yagyuu Hirai said with a smile, "He lost and still doesn't admit it. Let's see how long he can pretend!"
Tang Qingzhi, Gao Fengwen, and the others were all confused by what they saw.
He Lizhi sneered and said, "Then hurry up. I want to see what you have to say after this last step."
"It'll be done soon!"
Qin Haodong was still calm. He went to the table, grabbed a corner of the rice paper, and shook his wrist gently.
With a crashing sound, the Xuan paper was already stained with ink. With a shake of his hand, the ink immediately flowed out and covered the entire scroll.
Qin Haodong put the rice paper back on the table and said, "It's done!"
"What do you mean it's done? Isn't this a joke?"
The people on and off the stage did not understand. What the hell was Qin Haodong picking up the rice paper and shaking it? Could it be that this was also a way of painting?
"No, look!"
Just as everyone was feeling puzzled, someone suddenly yelled out!
Everyone's attention was turned back to the painting. Tang Qingzhi said in a trembling voice, "Oh my god, how is this possible? What did I see?"
With a shake of Qin Haodong's hand, the Xuan paper, which was in a mess just now, scattered the ink. The footprints left by the little teddy were connected with each other and magically formed a plum blossom picture.
The plum blossoms on the picture stood proudly. The ink flowed and formed dry tree trunks. The little teddy's footprints formed plum blossoms sporadically on it. The most amazing thing was that the place where the teddy had just fallen had become two rugged rocks. The traces left by the teddy's fur formed folds on the surface of the strange rocks, which looked more vivid.
The peony painting that He Lizhi had just drawn gave people a feeling of wealth and prosperity. However, although the winter plum blossom painting in front of them didn't have any flower embellishment, it gave people a feeling of pride and contempt for the wind and frost!
The whole audience was silent. No one had expected that Qin Haodong's gentle shaking could create such an extraordinary painting. Yagyuu Hirai, who had been laughing unscrupulously, forgot to close his mouth at this time. He was confused and dull.
Amazing! It was really amazing! A little teddy who knew nothing could make such a painting. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, no one would have believed it.
"It's an eye-opener! It's an eye-opener for me today! "
There were tears in Tang Qingzhi's eyes as he spoke.
As a painter, he naturally knew how difficult Qin Haodong's painting was.
It seemed to be a simple shake, but in fact, it required a clear grasp of how much ink was left on the rice paper and a perfect control of the strength and direction. Only in this way could the ink flow to form the tree trunk and finally form a complete painting. All the details had to be perfectly integrated in the brain, and no mistakes could be made.
In summary, it could only be described as a magical skill.
After a moment of silence, there was a sudden burst of warm applause backstage. The audience seemed to have seen the hope of winning. At least such a painting was not inferior to He Lizhi's peony painting.
Gompos's face was full of shock. This painting seemed to be a little teddy bear that ran out. This young man did nothing, but in fact, the most important thing was the last shake. It was even more important than the finishing touch. If there was a little difference, it would go a thousand miles wrong and destroy the painting.
Qian Duoduo woke up from the shock and shouted excitedly, "Mr. Gompos, please give your score!"
