Chapter 424

Lin Yu said with certainty and eloquence.

"Alcohol? What alcohol?"

"Lin Yu, why are you so troublesome?"

Sister Sister Reba looked at Lin Yu angrily, but still looked around.

Looking for alcohol in the conference room is truly outrageous!

"Uh... it seems like you're not allowed to drink during a livestream, right?" Zhu Zhu Xudan scratched her head and asked suspiciously.

The Douyin platform has been very strict lately, and you can't smoke or drink. There are many minors watching, and she's afraid it will have a bad influence.

"Here! Lin Yu, I have tea, do you want it?" Sister Sister Reba had a flash of inspiration.

"Tea!"

"It's a bit lacking, but it's not impossible. Bring it here."

Lin Yu pretended to be an expert from outside the world.

"Calligraphy is mainly about expressing meaning. Many things are inspired by feelings and the expression of emotions. Brother Xia Yu should be able to deeply understand this."

Lin Yu nodded slightly at the camera in the livestream.

"Exactly! It's about the state of mind. I've had moments where I suddenly got a feeling, just like a stroke of divine inspiration."

"But it's still not as good as you, Brother Lin Yu."

Xia Yu empathized and echoed excitedly.

Last time, he remembered it was after drinking a cup of Dahongpao that he suddenly got a feeling. Sometimes he has to admire the ancients for burning incense and tasting tea—that is the truly comfortable life!

Xu Sister Jinglei and Chen Daoming in the livestream also widened their eyes in surprise.

So there's such a saying?

This is the same principle as Li Bai drinking wine and writing a hundred poems. You need an atmosphere to create miracles, right!

Learned it!

Chen Daoming immediately thought of the wine cellar in Zhang Zhang Yimou's house—the national master's wine is even more mellow!

"Sister Sister Reba girl! Have you brewed the tea for me?"

Lin Yu also called out softly behind him.

"Brew what tea?"

"Here!"

"Take it, drink it."

Sister Sister Reba found a bottle of iced red tea from the drawer and threw it over.

This was a bottle left over from when they were discussing the script late at night and were too sleepy.

???

Holy crap!

Iced red tea!?

"Damn! After I said so much and laid such a groundwork for the atmosphere, you gave me a bottle of iced red tea."

Lin Yu curled his lips, his face full of unhappiness.

"Fine! Iced red tea counts as black tea!"

"But I'm telling you, the taste of this running script might change. If it tastes like red tea later, don't blame me!"

Lin Yu smacked his lips and said.

The livestream burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Hahahaha, I've seen people writing calligraphy while drunk, but never while drinking iced red tea. The atmosphere was broken by this bottle of iced red tea."

"Sister Sister Reba is so cute, I love her, adding a fan badge."

"Sister Sister Reba wife is so interesting, I wonder if anyone can prank Lin Yu."

"Iced red tea: I became popular for no reason? Sister Sister Reba's same style is online!"

"Sister Sister Reba: Please settle the advertising fee, it's urgent!"

"..."

Xia Yu once again acted as the live commentator.

Before Lin Yu started writing, he briefly explained the difference between running script and regular script to everyone.

Running script is actually a font evolved on the basis of regular script, so it is generally the same as regular script in brushwork, but it is richer, more varied, and more layered in terms of starting, ending, lifting, pressing, turning, and galloping.

The writing speed is also relatively moderate, the font is elegant and free, unruly, the structure is varied, and the momentum between the strokes complements each other, echoing from beginning to end.

"What?"

"'Lantingji Xu' (Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Collection)"

When Xia Yu saw these three characters, his eyes couldn't help but widen, and he exclaimed in surprise.

Xia Yu calculated a thousand times, but never expected that Lin Yu would directly write Wang Xizhi's 'Lantingji Xu'. This is too brave!

"Uh..."

"Let me briefly introduce it to everyone. As everyone knows, 'Lantingji Xu' is Wang Xizhi's representative work."

"The ancients would hold activities to wash away bad luck on the third day of the third lunar month every year."

"It's similar to some spring outing poetry gatherings."

"'Lantingji Xu' was written against this background."

"Looking at the past and present, 'Lantingji Xu' truly achieves a spirit in the ink. Besides looking beautiful overall, individual characters and individual strokes all seem particularly lively."

"..."

After hearing Xia Yu's introduction, everyone was greatly amazed, and some even directly took out previous imitations of 'Lantingji Xu'.

"Holy crap! Really? Is Lin Yu really going to write this?"

"This is too awesome, I've already taken out the photo and am ready to compare. Let's see how similar Lin Yu's writing is."

"I don't know about the previous Slender Gold script and Yan Zhenqing's characters, but I can still understand Wang Xizhi's 'Lantingji Xu'."

"..."

"No way, you're really going to write 'Lantingji Xu'."

Although Sister Sister Reba didn't study calligraphy since childhood, she was influenced by it and knew a thing or two about the world's number one running script.

After knowing that Lin Yu was going to imitate 'Lantingji Xu', she widened her eyes, full of anticipation.

Zhu Zhu Xudan on the side was the same. This article had been in textbooks since childhood, and basically everyone who had gone to school had studied it.

She was very curious about how similar Lin Yu could imitate it. Yanjing Tomson Riviera.

Xu Sister Jinglei had originally picked up her teacup, but upon hearing this, she subconsciously put it down. She originally thought Lin Yu was going to imitate Wang Wang Xizhi's brush style.

Who would have thought he would directly imitate the treasure of the calligraphy world, 'Lantingji Xu'.

He had only written a few characters before, and now he's doing this big job—it's truly unexpected and surprising.

This kid?

Chen Daoming inherits the lineage of Wang Wang Xizhi.

He can more deeply understand the delicacy of the Calligraphy Sage's brushwork and the rigor of the structural layout. Wang Wang Xizhi even wrote running script like a chess manual—tightly knit and exquisite.

Can this thing really be imitated at will? Could this kid be a genius?

'Lantingji Xu'!

Of course, Lin Yu wouldn't write the proper 'Lantingji Xu'. If he wrote it poorly, he would be criticized; if he wrote it well, he would definitely be bothered by many people coming to his door.

The audience in the livestream,

Chen Daoming, Xu Sister Jinglei, the connected Xia Yu, including Sister Sister Reba and Zhu Zhu Xudan on the scene, all held their breath, looking forward to Lin Yu's brushwork.

Lin Yu didn't play coy either, directly shook the sleeves on his arms, held the wolf-hair brush tip, and dipped it in ink. However,

the next moment, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Lanting imitates the calligraphy! Running script is like flowing clouds and water!"

"Pushing the door under the moon! The heart is as delicate as your footsteps!"

Netizens:???

Sister Sister Reba:???

Zhu Zhu Xudan:???

Shouldn't it be "In the ninth year of Yonghe, the year being Guichou, at the beginning of late spring"?

What, what the hell is this writing?
