Chapter 295
Chen Fan's brush danced like a dragon and a snake while the photographer recorded the characters on the white paper.
This simple character written was "King of Flexing".
Two characters.
Yet they somehow gave the photographer a feeling that these two characters carried a trace of killing intent.
Yes, it was clearly visible as killing intent.
The photographer didn't understand this stuff, yet still saw the words "King of Flexing" radiating killing intent.
But why "King of Flexing"?
Why? I really don't get it.
Chen Fan put down the brush in his hand and said, "Are you surprised?"
Li Tian looked down and said, "I'm truly speechless. Why on earth are you researching this stuff?"
"I'll sell this to you for five million. Buy it or not?"
"I'm not buying. I'm no fool, and I have no money."
Chen Fan chuckled and said, "This is before I even package it. If I packaged it, chose a snowy mountain location, wore white robes, and then wrote these two characters, how much do you think it would be worth?"
Damn it.
Li Tian said, "You could have just robbed me directly. Why did you have to gift me two characters?"
"King of Flexing. Don't you think it's cool?"
At that moment, Chen Fan's phone rang. Chen Fan answered and said, "Oh, you want to buy?"
"Too late. Just now it was five million, now it's eight million. Say one more word, and it's ten million."
The other party hung up the phone instantly.
Very soon, Chen Fan's phone received the money.
At this moment, the audience was numb.
Over here, Teacher He picked up his phone and said, "I just called the president of the Calligraphy Association. Chen Fan's calligraphy is truly impressive, very powerful."
"Really?"
"This stuff can't be faked. Besides, your deceased person expressed respect for the deceased, so I can't say much more. We are the National Calligraphy Association, while his is a Calligraphy Association. You probably get the meaning now."
0.... 0
????
Damn, then I instantly understood.
Teacher He was speechless, hung up the phone, and said, "Uh, although I know saying this shows no respect for the deceased, his Calligraphy Association does indeed exist; it's just a personal organization. The real Calligraphy Association is called the Huaxia Calligraphy Association."
Two characters difference, but a huge difference in meaning.
Chen Fan said, "See, I could actually sell it even more expensively, but I'd need to add some story to it."
"Wait, who bought it just now?"
Chen Fan said, "A collector. A calligraphy collector. Come on, to fake this, I'd first need real skill, right?"
Seems right. Without real skill, faking it would just be a joke.
"Calligraphy in the circle is called 'one character worth a thousand gold'. That's not just talk. True calligraphy requires form, intent, and spirit to all be online. I'm telling you, do you understand?"
Damn, this guy really pulled it off.
So annoying. How does a little fresh meat like you know calligraphy and stuff?
Li Tian said, "What story do you want to add to yourself?"
Chen Fan said, "Very simple. Cut off an arm and a leg, and I can charge more. If I cut off all four limbs, I'm telling you, the price would go even higher. If I cut off my head, you'd probably see my calligraphy at an auction. Or, for example, get a girlfriend, have the girlfriend leave me..."
"At that point, I'd create a 'lovesick' persona, crying every day in front of a grave, writing some final masterpiece of life. I'm telling you, the fans would flock in droves. Who knows what I'd be doing with the fans in that grave room? Learn from me. Selling it to you for five million is actually a loss. I could have earned much more. Look, I even gifted you two characters."
Li Tian went completely silent and said, "Do you really understand calligraphy?"
"Who knows?"
Li Tian stopped speaking and said, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk to you. I'm going to catch someone."
"You found him?"
Li Tian said, "If this person pursued art, it would be harder. Unfortunately, this person just loves money. We kidnapped him, took the items off him to sell, ran around a few places, found a few people, and traced the sold watch or address or whatever. The person is already on the way back."
Damn.
Chen Fan was speechless and said, "No challenge at all. Couldn't this person have some technical skill? Didn't you know this guy's handwriting could actually be worth hundreds of thousands?"
"I know, but this person didn't dare to sell it publicly."
"Then he dared to sell the watch?"
"That thing, he thought, well, rich people all have them. Who knows whose it was? Unfortunately, this kid overthought it. The watch is fake. Hahahaha."
Chen Fan was speechless.
"Are you saying?"
Li Tian said, "Whether you have the skill, I don't know. But I know this person is an internet celebrity who makes money off fans. Later it was exposed that he slept with many fans, so no one bought his stuff anymore. The original watch was sold. The kidnappers actually wanted money, but unfortunately, this guy had no money and was in debt."
Chen Fan said, "Li Tian, the day you die, I'll come to dissect you."
"What for?"
"I'll write two characters on your death certificate: Kidney Deficiency."
