Chapter 915 Are We Ordinary People Not Worthy of Appreciating Traditional Chinese Paintings?

“How can we be sure that the original drawing of this painting is like this? How would we be able to know what else the computer added? Can the original drawing really be so detailed?” Shan Zhaowei said, “I am now very doubtful about the authenticity of this painting. Other than Tan Jinyi and the director himself, no one else should have seen the original painting. What does the original painting look like? You sent a photo saying that it was the original painting and that it had not been processed. Is it true?”

“Let’s not talk about this for now. Otherwise, someone will say that I have no evidence to point out that there is something wrong with the original painting.” Shan Zhaowei added, “But in order to become famous, you used computer technology to express traditional Chinese painting. This is a violation of our traditional culture and disrespect for the traditional Chinese painting!”

“Such behavior should not be encouraged. The artist of this painting should not be praised or even called an artist.” Shan Zhaowei finally said, “An artist? He is not even worthy to be called that.”

However, when the Tan siblings, including Tan Jinyi, saw this Weibo post.

They did not panic at all.

Tan Jinyi even let out a sigh of relief, “It’s finally here.”

When Tan Mo and Tan Jinqi had discussed this matter previously, they had expected such a situation to happen.

This was also the reason why they had hesitated in the beginning.

They were worried that He Haoyan and Dong Yanzhen would disagree because of this.

However, they did not expect He Haoyan and Dong Yanzhen to find no problem with it.

Naturally, Tan Jinyi was even less of a problem.

Tan Jinqi and Tan Mo had already thought of a countermeasure.

If no one said such things, it would be for the best.

Even if their countermeasure was useless, as long as Tan Jinyi’s career could go smoothly, wasting such countermeasures is considered nothing/ please keep reading on MYB0XN0VEL(d0t)C0M.

But if someone really said something similar.

They would be able to step forward and respond immediately.

And at this time, their countermeasure came in handy.

Tan Mo was the first to post on Weibo: “Since it is our country’s traditional culture, we should use all possible methods to publicize it, let more people know, attract more people to come into contact with it, learn from it, and let more people inherit our traditional culture. We shouldn’t be restricted by people who think highly of themselves and are isolated from the rest of the world. They think they are noble and feel that those who don’t understand it don’t deserve to appreciate it.”

“They don’t know about it because they don’t understand. It is because they don’t come into contact with it due to some people being narcissistic. As long as more people see it and understand it, more people will appreciate it. The country has been encouraging and promoting our traditional culture. As long as we don’t distort and defame traditional culture, and use proper propaganda methods, I don’t think there’s anything bad or shameful about using traditional Chinese painting as the opening of a drama series.”

“Not to be boastful, ‘Broken Continent’ has a large audience. With the broadcast of ‘Broken Continent’, more people can see our traditional Chinese painting, the skill level, detail, and effects are not worse than the oil paintings that are known by more people

“Of course, both of them have their own advantages. There is no intention to step on either side. We just hope that we can do our part and make use of this opportunity to let more people know about our traditional Chinese paintings. In fact, I feel that even if we don’t have any professional appreciation of traditional Chinese paintings, we can still see how good the paintings are just by appreciating the beauty. The mountains and rivers are seen to be majestic, and the flowers and birds were beautiful. As long as more people can appreciate it, it would be a kind of success.”

“I’ve always thought that if you restrict yourself, and use some high and mighty reasons to set yourself higher than others. The barrier to entry is extremely high. As for the less professional viewers, you can even mock them, thinking that they don’t know anything and are not worthy to appreciate it. As a result, this industry will become a niche. With fewer people appreciating it, it was tantamount to digging their own graves. While the country advocated the promotion of our traditional culture, some small people kept the public out. Who is the one who is holding our traditional culture back?”

“Personally, I think that even if we just appreciate a painting, even if we don’t understand it and just think it looks good, there is nothing bad about it.” Tan Mo continued to type, “As long as I like it and think it looks good, I’ll start studying it. Gradually, won’t I understand it more and more? The more people who understand these traditional cultures, the bigger the market, and the more people who join in to study it. A virtuous cycle will be formed.”

“So, I don’t feel that using traditional Chinese paintings as the opening scene is a distortion and degradation of traditional art.” Tan Mo said at the end.

Tan Mo had many more fans than Shan Zhaowei.

However, as soon as Shan Zhaowei posted on Weibo, it was immediately shared by many marketing accounts.

There were many fans of these marketing accounts. After a large number of them were shared, their popularity immediately rose.

were

Because of this, the number of fans of this painter had increased rapidly.

Some saw the title of the painter and thought that he was quite powerful. He was an expert and planned to follow him to see what happened next.

Some of them were there specifically to scold him.

However, after being scolded a lot, Shan Zhaowei only allowed those who followed him to comment.

In order to scold him, the netizens went all out.

Even if they did not like him, they still followed him for a while.

They planned to stop following him after scolding him.

Therefore, Shan Zhaowei’s fan volume grew very quickly. Of course, even so, he still could not catch up to Tan Mo.

After all, Tan Mo’s fan base had accumulated over the years.

They had always been following. Even if they were not die-hard fans, she already had a very stable fan base.

In addition, Tan Mo had developed in many areas and had a certain amount of fame in every field.

In other words, she had a considerable amount of fans in every field.

The number of fans in every field added up was very large, and it was professional.

Although there were many fans of idol artists, they were scattered in various industries.

They were not like Tan Mo, who was particularly concentrated in every industry.

A paragraph from Tan Mo was posted.

Not only fans, but many netizens who did not pay attention to Tan Mo also felt that it was very reasonable.

“As long as it is not blindly modified and is used in a proper and positive way to promote our country’s traditional culture and art, it should be understood and supported. It’s fine if this painter doesn’t understand or support it, but the meaning behind his words is that he wants to bring everyone to boycott it? Is it true that as long as they aren’t in your industry and don’t follow your rules, they will be boycotted, and they will be labeled as unorthodox and a burden to traditional literature and art?”

“It makes me angry just by looking at it. Why? Are we ordinary people not worthy of appreciating traditional Chinese paintings?”

“I didn’t know much about Chinese painting before, but after watching ‘Broken Continent’ this time, I coincidentally saw the traditional Chinese painting at the beginning of the film. Only then did I know that traditional Chinese painting can be painted like this.”
