Chapter 859 We Did Not Expect You to Be Like That Master Dong Yanzhen

Even Xu Mingzhen and Tan Wenci were used to this form of address.

They had long since stopped changing the way they addressed each other, and when they heard it, their hearts did not waver at all. It was as if it was natural that Wei Zhiqian called them that.

“Hasn’t Jinyi returned yet?” Tan Wenci saw the people in the living room, and only Jinyi was missing.

“I just called him. He’s on his way back, but there’s a bit of traffic.” Xu Mingzhen explained.

After another ten minutes, Tan Jinyi also entered the house.

When everyone was ready, Auntie Guo set up the dinner table.

After eating for a while, Tan Jinqi said: “Jinyi, you’re always with your uncle. What future plans do you have?”

“What plans? Are you referring to the curriculum?” Tan Jinyi did not quite understand.

“I’m referring to career development.” Tan Jinqi said, “Does your teacher have any plans?”

“Teacher and uncle are also thinking about it.” Tan Jinyi said, “Uncle can bring me along for his art exhibition, but they are worried that uncle’s fame will be too great and will overshadow my works, making people not notice me at all. In this way, the purpose of bringing me along will not be achieved, and it will have the opposite effect. That’s not good.”

“So, they are thinking about it every day.” Tan Jinyi scratched his head, “It makes me very stressed. Teacher and uncle are already very good to me. Shouldn’t I be the one working hard to make a name for myself?” “Teacher and uncle are making a name list now.” Tan Jinyi said. “To see who is suitable to help. But I feel that these are all favors. It’s a bit too wasteful to use them on me.”

“We have an idea now. Let us tell you about it first, then you can discuss it with your teacher and uncle.” Tan Jinqi told Tan Jinyi about the idea that they had discussed in the afternoon.

“Now it depends on you, your teacher, and uncle.” Tan Jinqi said, “What do you think?”

“That is a good idea.” Tan Jinyi’s eyes lit up when he heard it.

“You don’t think it’s a problem?” Tan Wenci also thought that this was a good idea.

Seeing that Tan Jinyi agreed, he felt that the matter was half accomplished.

“Not a problem!” Tan Jinyi nodded repeatedly, “At first, teacher and uncle were still thinking about how to highlight me. If it were just the two of them introducing me, it definitely wouldn’t work. If everyone knew that I’m teacher’s disciple and Dong Yanzhen’s nephew, not only would they have rebellious thoughts, they would also have strict requirements on

me.”

“Teacher and Uncle feel that it would be best if no one knew that I was teacher’s disciple, Dong Yanzhen’s nephew. This way, we can use the sudden appearance of a talented young artist as a publicity stunt.” Tan Jinyi said, “If everyone has already approved of my paintings and we announce that I’m teacher’s student it will be better. Although there will inevitably be some unpleasant voices, at least most people will be able to accept it and be less strict with my paintings.”

“What we are worried about now is that your paintings will appear as the opening of a TV drama, which is contrary to tradition.” Tan Jinqi voiced their worries, “In this way, you may become famous, but the way to become famous is not traditional enough. There will still be some negative voices. Moreover, we are also worried that your teacher and uncle will mind, feeling that it was too commercial.” “Teacher and uncle won’t mind.” Tan Jinyi said confidently, “Uncle has always said that he isn’t an artist. It is already a commercial activity for his paintings to be sold at such an expensive price. A real artist will starve to death.”

“No matter what method is used, as long as it is legitimate, as long as it can let people see and recognize your standards, it is a good method.” Tan Jinyi’s face was full of joy when he mentioned Dong Yanzhen, “If you want to be an artist, you have to feed yourself first. If you want to be stubborn as an artist, you have to wait until you become famous first. Before you become famous, everything is based on the premise of becoming famous.”

Everyone: “…”

This was different from what they thought of Dong Yanzhen.

They did not expect Dong Yanzhen to be like that.

“No matter what, it’s better for you to go and ask first.” Xu Mingzhen said.

“Your master and uncle are so good to you. As for your career plan, we still need to discuss it with them and ask for their consent.” Said Xu Mingzhen as she put a piece of pork rib into his bowl.

“Then I’ll ask them now.” Tan Jinyi did not delay at all.

His phone was placed in his hand. Tan Jinyi unlocked the phone screen and clicked into a WeChat group.

There were only three people in the WeChat group. Other than Tan Jinyi, the other two were He Haoyan and Dong Yanzhen.

Tan Jinsheng looked at it and said: “This small group with three of you can probably shock the crowd right?” Thinking about it, there was a young man who was in the same group as He Haoyan and Dong Yanzhen. Furthermore, there were only three people in total.

Tan Jinyi smiled and said: “Second brother, aren’t you in the same group as your seniors? It can shock the crowd too.”

All of them were big shots in the music industry.

“That’s different.” Tan Jinsheng shook his head, “He Haoyan and Dong Yanzhen are too scary.’

He Haoyan’s paintings were not necessarily more expensive than Dong Yanzhen’s.

However, the students he taught were all famous, and he himself was a figure of authority in the industry of calligraphy and painting

What was even more impressive was his connections.

Otherwise, Nobel Prize winner, Ji Qinghe, would not help with the publicity of ‘Broken Continent’ the previous time.

He could even mobilize these people just to help Tan Jinyi’s big brother.

If it was to help Tan Jinyi, who knew how many people he would be able to invite.

Not to mention Dong Yanzhen, a well-known master.

The money earned by selling one painting done by Dong Yanzhen was probably equivalent to the earnings of Tan Jinsheng’s seniors in at least ten years.

Tan Jinyi opened a group voice call.

He Haoyan and Dong Yanzhen picked up the phone almost at the same time.

The sound of eating came from the phone and it even overlapped a little.

“Uncle, you went back to teacher’s house?” Tan Jinyi heard it and knew that Dong Yanzhen and He Haoyan should be together.

“I just came back in the middle of the night. I’m still jet-lagged. I woke up in the afternoon, and now I’m very awake.” Dong Yanzhen’s voice was full of helplessness, “I’m afraid I won’t be able to sleep at night again. I’m having dinner with Senior and Sister-in-law now.”

“I’ll hang up first. I’ll just listen to it with Senior. Otherwise, both of our phones will have voice calls on and the voice will overlap.” Dong Yanzhen said.

Tan Jinyi agreed and Dong Yanzhen hung up.

He Haoyan turned on the speakerphone and Dong Yanzhen’s voice came from his phone. “Jinyi, uncle is here too.”

“Oh right, I forgot to ask you. Have you eaten?” Dong Yanzhen asked again.

The Tan Mansion did not expect Dong Yanzhen to have such a talkative personality.

Just listening to him talk, they felt that he was easy to get along with.
