What's the first thing to do after the Spring College Entrance Examination?
Cheng Wang said, "Of course I'm asking for leave!"
Leave requests should be planned and followed by rules; those who request leave first should encourage others to do so as well.
Almost the day he returned home after the exam, he and Lin Qin quit.
"Mom, I'm not going to go with the high school. I'll wait until winter break to start practicing for the college entrance exams."
"You're just doing things on a whim. Why didn't you discuss it with Teacher Chen beforehand or ask for leave in advance?"
"It's okay, I've already made the decision for you."
"You brat, are you itching for a beating? Tonight you'll only have thin porridge, no other dishes."
"Great! My treat! I'll cover all the salted duck eggs for the whole family tonight!"
Lin Qin suddenly became wary.
"Are you trying to warn me that I'm going to get a zero on my math test?"
However, taking the college entrance exam is a legitimate reason.
After the spring college entrance exam, I went back to high school and continued working on practice tests and explaining questions. Compared to that, the art academy was a much bigger deal!
Although Lin Qin didn't quite understand why Cheng Wang wanted to apply to so many schools.
Aside from the Yuhang Academy of Fine Arts and the Shanghai Drama Academy, this layman is only slightly known to others; otherwise, he knows almost nothing.
Sichuan-Chongqing Academy of Fine Arts?
Oh dear, do the artists there use chili peppers to paint?
I might as well take a long leave. The exams will basically be over by the end of the year, so I can study my academic subjects for another ten days or so.
The school entrance exam is something Chengwang is determined to succeed in.
Taking advantage of the rare free time, I naturally couldn't neglect commissioning articles.
He hadn't gone online for three whole days in preparation for the spring college entrance exam.
Three days! How many drafts can that make!
The night after the exam, he used the excuse of watching online classes to carry his computer into his bedroom.
Sitting in front of the computer, Cheng Wang first took stock of how many orders he still had.
"7, 8, 9, 10... It should be cleared out in less than a week."
He then opened the forum and admired the popular post that he had personally published.
Before New Year's Day, Cheng Wang took some time to finish drawing several drafts.
All of them are industry insiders personally certified by Cola, closely related to her, and with excellent reputations. The requirements for commissioning articles are relatively simple.
I treat everyone the same, using my consistent style. I not only accept commissions for artwork, but I also guide those who commission me to adjust their ideas to their liking.
It turns out.
Such an effort will be worthwhile.
[I was the second person to request this artwork, and Cola was right! Mrs. Zuo Wangdao's professionalism is simply unmatched by any other artist! I never imagined that men could be so beautiful!]
[Actually, I've commissioned similar articles from many writers, so I knew it would be quite challenging. I didn't expect to receive the finished product in just two hours after hearing the requirements. While I don't want to criticize one writer for another, it used to take at least a month!]
Not bad, but unfortunately I don't get a cashback for leaving a good review here.
Cheng Wang quickly found two commissioners boasting and examples of finished product images from the top of the replies to the post.
There's more below.
[Waaaaah, why does Cola get so many roles? I'm so jealous! Such a great production, and we still have to wait in line again. I should have just given up hope!]
[A fantastic commissioning experience, very fresh and high quality. It's just that Professor Zuo Wangdao seems to have some special rules, like not accepting male-male commissions...]
"This isn't a rule, it's a principle!"
Upon seeing the last message, he let out a long sigh.
While there is a high demand for female-oriented forums, there are also many "rebellious" areas that are not so easy to accept.
Female fans of BL should probably look elsewhere!
The truth is that my skills are not up to par, and I am not yet ready to risk my reputation by venturing into this area.
Cheng Wang expressed deep regret.
But I was also very lucky.
These contributors are just as famous on the forum as the "Cola Emperor," which has attracted even more forum users to comment.
The era of short, fragmented videos has not yet arrived, and the changes in the timeliness of the internet are far less dramatic than in later periods.
For nearly a week, the draft of this treaty has continued to attract clicks.
Not only did it not fall out of the top spots, but it also showed strong upward momentum, successfully entering the top 20 of the overall rankings.
"Good, you're drawing with a plan and following a set rules, drawing first to guide the others."
He scrolled through more than 400 new replies by clicking the middle mouse button.
Cheng Wang still followed his own established standards, carefully screening potential partners one by one, being extremely cautious and absolutely not allowing any controversy to arise in his reputation due to his own actions.
have to say.
After a few days of reflection, the number of replies was astonishing. Just reading through them one by one, and filtering out the spam posts, would take a lot of time.
He didn't mind the trouble, after all, it was about taking responsibility for his career.
This is how forums used to accept submissions in the early days. When a platform is introduced in the future and a one-on-one review mechanism is established, it will be much easier for both ourselves and our peers.
He doesn't want to switch to the private message posting format for the time being; he's determined to spread his fame throughout the entire forum.
"Hey, isn't this Cola? Why is it asking for articles in this thread too?"
A short while later.
He saw a familiar name.
[Drink Less Iced Coke: Boss, I'm back to commission an article! Please take a look at these requirements, are they suitable?]
He opened QQ and quickly sent a small message.
[Wang: Is Cola there? I told you before, you can message me privately to jump the queue, and your manuscript will be processed first.]
The other person happened to be online.
[Cola: Hey there, big shot! I was just thinking of replying to your post to boost its popularity and create a repeat customer effect, how about it!]
[Wang: Thank you. The usual procedure for commissioning articles is to send it to me first.]
[Cola: Hey boss, this is really bad! Someone's targeting you! You're already at the very bottom of the trending list!]
【see:?】
[Cola: No, no, I just checked, the ranking has gone up a bit, it's almost 30 now.]
She sent me a link.
Cheng Wang copied the post to a webpage and glanced at the title out of the corner of his eye. He couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Am I the only one who thinks that a certain recently popular artist actually draws terribly?
The beginning of the post is a screenshot that appears to have been accidentally not fully blurred.
The content is from the user's personal homepage; no matter how blurry the Red Dragon Mahjong avatar is, it can still be recognized at a glance.
If it's not someone who sits and observes the Dao, then who is it?
The Dark Forest Theory, unique to the art world, is something you have to understand.
Cheng Wang was already familiar with the culture of battle stickers and had anticipated that sooner or later, some amateur artists would come looking for him.
The main content is very simple; it simply highlights the painting, circles and dots it with a red brush, and explains why that part is not well drawn.
His personal, casual style of writing, which he was quite satisfied with, was criticized by the fighters as a serious lack of basic skills and an overly obvious error in human body dynamics.
Most of the comments were just people watching and observing, but a small number of voices expressed agreement.
The poster was probably afraid that Cola and the others had fans and would easily be attacked by the group, so they deliberately only picked on Cheng Wang's own work and dared not use commissioned articles as examples.
Instead of addressing my professional identity, you're criticizing my drawing skills, saying that the child's imagination seems a bit lacking.
[Cola: Did you see the post? Does she even have eyes? I saw her work, it's clearly awful, and she still dares to say you're no good. I'm so angry!!!]
[Wang: Oh, I finished watching it. It was quite interesting.]
[Cola: What?! No way, I can't stand this! I'm posting this in the group right now and getting people to fight back.]
[Wang: Are you going to engage in cyberbullying?]
[Cola: How can this be called cyberbullying? I'm just telling the truth!]
[Wang: Haha.]
[Cola: Why are you still laughing?!]
[Wang: It's not a big problem, it's fine. I'll reply myself.]
Cheng Wang was too lazy to pay attention; people in the circle usually just argued back and forth.
Given his mindset and experiences, he has long since lost interest in pointless arguments, remaining completely unmoved and even finding it somewhat amusing.
He didn't see it as an attack at all; on the contrary, it was clearly a piece of fat meat delivered right to his mouth.
The Dark Forest? Then let's have a dark duel, responding with art.
While replying to QQ messages, Cheng Wang connected his graphics tablet and opened the drawing software Sai.
