Chapter 400
Just at this moment, a commotion came, and a group of people surrounded Provincial Party Committee Secretary Gu Shanmin and walked toward this side, and stopped in front of this group of works related to Meng Hu Ling.
Su Xinghui stood next to his bamboo forest painting, and he was also sizing up Provincial Party Committee Secretary Gu Shanmin.
Gu Shanmin was an old man in his fifties, but he was quite well-maintained. I don't know if his hair was natural or dyed, but not a single white hair could be seen.
Today's cadres, especially high-level cadres, are very particular about their personal image. If they have white hair, it is easy for people to think they are old and lack energy, so as long as they have white hair, they will dye it black, looking energetic.
In the few months after Gu Shanmin first came to Hudong Province last year, he had no actions and was seen as "harmonizing with the light and dust." However, even if a Provincial Party Committee Secretary had no actions, his influence was not small. By this year, he had already begun to show his skills and had already gained a firm foothold in Hudong Province.
Su Xinghui looked at him, thinking in his heart, I don't know if the preparation work for the dish of effort Gu Shanmin is making in Hudong is all done.
Gu Shanmin looked at this group of works with a face full of spring breeze, appearing to be in a very good mood. While looking, he nodded frequently, looking very satisfied.
Come to think of it, this small group of Qu Ziqing and others were the most famous calligraphy and painting artists in the whole province. This time, they were fully prepared and very attentive in their creation. Therefore, the level of their group of works was obviously higher than their peers, and it was normal for Gu Shanmin to look at them more here.
Gu Shanmin asked the authors some questions while looking, and slowly walked in front of Su Xinghui.
Gu Shanmin first looked at the painting. This painting was also carefully created by Su Xinghui for nearly a month. It painted a corner of the bamboo forest in Wild Boar Ditch. Outside the bamboo forest was a farmhouse. There were chickens and pigs at the door, and curling smoke was rising from the chimney.
There were several farm women in the bamboo forest chopping bamboo, their faces full of smiles, and one farm woman was laughing heartily. Just looking at this painting, it seemed one could hear their cheerful laughter.
By the farmhouse, a beautiful girl was focused on weaving bamboo. In her hands, a bamboo-woven bird was almost finished, lifelike and detailed, and the girl's face also revealed the joy of being about to succeed. That kind of joy came from the heart and could move people very much.
Gu Shanmin looked at this painting for several minutes, and then looked at the inscription: Su Xinghui, made in Meng Hu Ling in the first month of the Guiyou year.
Only then did he cast his gaze on Su Xinghui next to him, and asked with a smile, "Are you Su Xinghui?"
Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Hello! Secretary Gu, I am Su Xinghui!"
Gu Shanmin said, "I remember your name, but I didn't expect that your painting is also so good!"
Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Secretary Gu is too kind. Compared with these seniors, I am still far behind. Being able to be selected for this calligraphy and painting exhibition can be considered the seniors' favor."
Watching the heroic Su Xinghui speaking eloquently in front of him without any nervousness, Gu Shanmin's eyes were full of appreciation. He smiled and said, "It's a good thing for young people to be humble, but don't be too humble. Although I don't know much about painting, I can also see that your painting has reached a very high level."
Lu Zhenghong, who was standing on the side, said, "Why not ask a painter to evaluate Su Xinghui's work?"
Several painters on the side yielded, and finally, Chen Hanxiu said, "Although Little Su is young, his brushwork is already very seasoned. The composition is dense and sparse, the brush and ink are free and easy, making people feel very comfortable, and the realm is also very high. Especially the expressions on the faces of these people, they are almost about to walk off the painting. This painting can be called a top-grade work. The younger generation is to be regarded with respect!"
Su Xinghui said, "This is Teacher Chen rewarding the younger generation; I don't dare to accept it."
The photography reporters on the side were all pressing the shutter toward here, and the text reporters were constantly recording in their notebooks.
Gu Shanmin asked, "Little Su, whose scenery is this?"
