Chapter 552 The Joy of Being a Great Artist (5K)

After Lin Hao left Tang Yun's house, he went directly to the sales department.

Yuanyuan has used her connections to get the best discount for Lin Hao, saving Lin Hao nearly one million.

However, Lin Hao did not take back the money he spent, but transferred it to Yuanyuan, asking her to help him take care of all the subsequent procedures and clean up the house 1202.

I spent more than 20 million yuan to buy a house today, and the money in my pocket was suddenly reduced by a quarter.

The key point is that Lin Hao fell in love with the sales lady Yuanyuan, and became a shareholder through stock trading, although Lin Hao suspected that she was not the first blood.

But considering that she was not very skilled, even if it was a fake film, she was very attentive, so I thought of giving her a house to keep for a long time. After all, she was really helpful.

A house costs several million. If this continues for a long time, the money will be gone!

After meeting Tang Yun and Lu Fumeng today, Lin Hao discovered that it seemed easy to make money in the arts world, and it was not ostentatious.

You don’t have to worry about too many issues, which is much more enjoyable than stock trading, futures trading, or doing business.

The key is that he can use this to get close to Tang Yun and punish Lu Fumeng. If he paints a few pictures that day and finds a few people to hype it up, he can even call himself an artist or something!

Thinking of this, Lin Hao visited one of the most senior figures in the literary and art circles through the memories of Tang Yun and Lu Fumeng.

Then he used his illusion skill to invite people from other art fields to his house for a party, including Mr. Ma who never appeared in the play.

Lin Hao only needs to wait for them to arrive, and then use his illusion skills to implant his own information into them, but this information is false and will slowly disappear over time.

Therefore, Lin Hao gathered them together and pulled them all into the illusion, and weaved scenes in the illusion that were the same as the experiences in the illusion, allowing them to experience them again.

For these extras, some of whom had never even appeared in the film, Lin Hao implanted false memories and turned them into memories of their real experiences through illusions.

Before leaving, Lin Hao said as if he was talking to an old friend:

"Okay, I'll leave Tang Yun's art exhibition to you all. We're all friends, so please take care of her!"

At this time, in their minds, Lin Hao is an all-powerful artist. At this time, Mr. Ma said:
"By the way, Mr. Lin, that Lu Fumeng came to me before. He was also helping Ms. Tang Yun run the exhibition. Do you know him?"

Lin Hao shook his head and said:
"As for Lu Fumeng, even though we are classmates, I won't hide it from you all. He is not someone worth making close friends with!"

Another artist smiled and said:

"Oh, if you can talk about what this person did, and let you, such a generous person, give such an evaluation, let us also avoid the thunder!"

"Let me give you an example! He borrowed 130,000 yuan from me before, but it's been almost ten years, and he hasn't even said a word, let alone paid it back!"

Then Lin Hao continued:

"If he really can't come up with the hundreds of thousands, as a friend, if we have the ability, we might even have to lend him some more money to tide him over the difficulties!"

"But the problem is that he is worth a lot of money, and he is not someone who needs a few hundred thousand dollars. This kind of behavior is really uncomfortable!"

"For example, he has two girlfriends every year and has aborted dozens of children. I had to intervene and send some of his girlfriends to the hospital. After that, I rarely interacted with him!"

"So that's how it is. This Lu Fumeng is simply not a human being!"

"My goodness, he has dated dozens of girlfriends, how scumbag must he be!"

"There are already dozens of children aborted. This is too cruel!"

"Yes, the child is not wrong after all!"

"Cold-blooded and heartless person!"

Amid the outcry against Lu Fumeng, Lin Hao left the home of his artist predecessor.

Afterwards, according to the memories of these predecessors in the literary and art circles, he set out again to visit several important figures in the collecting circle.

However, these people are all business celebrities, star actors, in short, people with considerable wealth.

It was a little difficult to gather her mother together at the same time, so Lin Hao spent an entire afternoon visiting most of the people in the collection circle.

After doing all this, Lin Hao was exhausted, mainly because the people in the collection circle were too scattered.

This is only the Shanghai area. Lin Hao is too lazy to go to other areas.

Just like that, Lin Hao jumped from an ordinary white-collar worker to a top figure in the literary and art circle, easily completing his identity transition!
Moreover, he can turn these ten years of miserable days into the life experience of an artist.

As for other people's previous comments and discussions about him, Lin Hao simply disdained to argue and silently did what he thought was right. Isn't that very artistic?

After all, how can what literary and artistic workers do be called cowardly? It’s called experiencing life and finding the true meaning of life!
Artists are more emotional, so it makes sense for them to have a few girlfriends and be more affectionate.

Damn, Lin Hao suddenly felt that being an artist was so cool!

By the way, I should paint a few real paintings when I have time when I go back. Otherwise, it would be untenable for a big figure in the literary and art circle to have no famous paintings of his own and no collections.

Lin Hao did it as soon as he thought of it. He called Mr. Ma and asked them to help him order two sets of painting tools. One set would be sent to Li Qian's villa, and the other set would be sent to the large flat at Binjiang 1202!

Then Lin Hao thought that in the future he would still need someone to help him do many things. For example, now he needed a driver, an assistant, and a secretary to handle various chores.

It seemed that I had to start a company, so I commissioned an agency, set up a company, and hired headhunters to find suitable employees.

When he finished all these, Lin Hao found that it was already dark, so he took a taxi back to Li Qian's villa.

By the way, I have to buy a car as soon as possible. It is really inconvenient without a car, and it completely affects my efficiency in picking up girls!
After returning to Li Qian's villa, Li Qian pulled Lin Hao and looked around in surprise. Lin Hao felt uncomfortable under her gaze.

"What are you doing?" Lin Hao pushed away Li Qian's unconscious hand.

"Sit down!" Li Qian pulled Lin Hao to sit on the sofa, and then asked:

"Today Hermes sent four sets of clothes, and a young man sent a complete set of painting supplies. What's going on?"

Lin Hao said as a matter of course:
"I'm ready to say goodbye to the past, so not only am I going to sell my house, I don't even want my old clothes anymore, so I just bought a few sets of clothes at Hermès!"

"As for that set of painting supplies, it was given to me by someone else. It's what I use to make a living!"

"No~, but, but~ then, wait, let me sort it out!" Li Qian couldn't even speak clearly, and after a pause she said:
"That dress is not cheap, it's almost 200,000 yuan, and that set of painting supplies looks very expensive!"

"So what?" Lin Hao asked curiously.

"So~!" Li Qian thought for a moment, then asked all her questions in one breath:
"Where do you get so much money to buy clothes? You told me before that you haven't even paid off your mortgage yet."

"And didn't you say you were in sales? Then why did you say that painting supplies are your bread and butter? What's going on here?"

"Listen to my story, bah!" Lin Hao hugged Li Qian into his arms and said:

"Listen to me and I will tell you the whole story slowly!"

"Before I married Gan Hong, I made a lot of money. At that time, in order to integrate into the upper class society, I learned painting from someone, but I was just learning for fun!"

"But painting became a hobby for me to adjust my mood and relax during my entrepreneurial period. But because the car accident killed my friend, I have always felt guilty!"

"So I abandoned my career, hobbies, and everything in the past. I tried my best to avoid them all. Later, I married Gan Hong and focused on my family."

Li Qian grabbed Lin Hao's hand and silently comforted Lin Hao, while Lin Hao continued:

"Later, I gradually came out of the shadow of the past and started painting intermittently. I didn't expect that my paintings were recognized by a senior in the art world, and then I continued to learn from him!"

As he spoke, Lin Hao looked at Li Qian and said affectionately:
"I haven't told Gan Hong any of this. You're the only one who knows this!"

"Didn't I tell you before? I plan to buy a house and continue my business, but I have investigated the project!"

Lin Hao shook his head and continued:
"I have been away from the forefront for too long. The boom has long passed. The projects we were optimistic about in the past have already been developed to the extreme. Entering now is simply suicide!"

"So I thought about meeting that senior in the art world. He suggested that I continue to paint while working as an art agent, and he also introduced me to a painter!" Li Qian looked at Lin Hao with admiration, but after listening to him, she didn't believe it at all, and Li Qian also said:

"Go on, keep making it up!"

Lin Hao pulled Li Qian back when she was about to leave, then asked with eyes wide open:

"You do not believe?"

"Just assume that I believe it!" She rolled her eyes at Lin Hao, but Li Qian said with a smile in her eyes:

"Unless you draw me a picture right then and there!"

"Okay, today I'll let you see what an artist's style is~!" Lin Hao took Li Qing to find an empty room and began to decorate the studio.

After making preparations, Lin Hao said:

"Come on, be my model today!"

"Okay~!" As he said that, he deliberately tore open his collar, causing two buttons to fly off, and then he made a seductive move.

"Hiss~, you demon who brings disaster to the world, just wait and see how I, Old Sun, will deal with you!" Lin Hao said as he pounced on him.

"Hehe~! I knew it was like this. And, what else are you talking about, what painter~, ugh!"

After a long time, Li Qian hummed and hawed, and allowed Lin Hao to make various movements.

But after a long while, Li Qian finally recovered, but found that Lin Hao was painting on a drawing board not far away!
Just as he was about to stand up, Lin Hao's voice suddenly came:
"Don't move, just keep feeling this way, it will be gone soon!"

Hearing this, Li Qian was too lazy to move, but she was still restless. She stretched her smooth legs, tidied her messy clothes, and stretched her waist in a charming manner. Sometimes she even made some excessive movements to deliberately seduce Lin Hao.

This went on for more than an hour, with Lin Hao going over to help Li Qian replenish her energy before they completed this masterpiece!

"Okay, come and take a look at my painting. See if I lied to you!" After saying that, Lin Hao took a step back and made way.

Li Qian wanted to take a look out of curiosity, but she still tidied up her messy clothes.

But when she saw Lin Hao's painting, her eyes widened and she carefully admired herself in the painting.

She saw herself in the painting, with her lazy temperament jumping out of the paper like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Not to mention a man, even she, a woman, felt something after just one look at it!

"This, this, this~!" Li Qian withdrew her gaze from the painting, then stared at Lin Hao intently, and said in disbelief:
“Did you really draw this?”

Lin Hao spread his hands confidently and said, "Is there anyone else here?"

At this time, Li Qian's eyes were shining. The man in front of her was a treasure man. She could always dig out different treasures from him.

Li Qian was very excited at this moment, and she rushed forward immediately. With a light jump, she wrapped her arms around Lin Hao's waist and hung her hands on Lin Hao's body.

Then the two of them kissed passionately in the studio. Just when the passionate scene was about to begin, Lin Hao's cell phone suddenly interrupted them.

The sudden ringing of the phone interrupted their passion. Lin Hao had no choice but to pick up the phone, but who was it?

Lin Hao looked at the phone and said, "Don't make a sound, it's my dad calling!"

"Yeah~!" Li Qian nodded obediently, but her hands were a little unruly.

Lin Hao had no choice but to answer the call: "Hello~!"

"I've been calling you, why didn't you answer~!" As soon as the call was connected, Yu Huanshui's father complained:
"Do you know how high I need to be right now? You want to piss me off to death? What are you doing?"

Lin Hao was filled with impatience and stopped Li Qian from taking any further action. He simply put the phone away and was too lazy to listen to Yu's father's nagging.

Sure enough, after hearing no sound from Lin Hao, Yu's father stopped talking, but he shouted loudly:
"Are you listening? I'm talking to you!"

At this time, Lin Hao said impatiently:
"Just say what you want to say, don't talk nonsense!"

The person on the other end of the phone probably sensed Lin Hao's impatience, so he went straight to the point:

"Your brother is getting engaged next month, and they're asking for a lot of dowry. You have to transfer 50,000 yuan to your family tomorrow. Remember, 50,000 yuan, not a cent less!"

"That's your father, not my brother. I have no obligation to help him~!" Lin Hao shouted angrily, not giving him any face at all.

"What is my dad? What nonsense are you talking about?" Yu's father said angrily:
"He's your brother. If you don't give him money, who will? How can he get married without money?"

Lin Hao looked at Li Qian helplessly. She was stretching her ears and eavesdropping on the phone call. Looking at her cute appearance, Lin Hao didn't seem to be so annoyed anymore.

After Yu's father finished speaking, Lin Hao said calmly:
"I'll say it again, that's your adopted son, he has nothing to do with me."

"I have no blood relationship with him, so I have no obligation to help him. To put it bluntly, even if I have a blood relationship with him, I still have no obligation to help him!"

"Alright, that's it. I don't have any money for him, but I won't give him my life. If he wants money, he can earn it himself. Don't always think about sucking blood from me!"

After saying that, Lin Hao was about to hang up the phone, but at this moment the person on the other end of the phone suddenly said loudly:
"Wait, when your mother died, she left behind 130,000 yuan. That was left to me. Give that money back to me!"

Lin Hao was speechless after hearing this. The 130,000 yuan left by Yu's mother was for Yu Huanshui's backup and was never given to Yu's father. Not a penny was intended for him.

Lin Hao also remembered that Yu Huanshui's father in the original drama was not only cowardly and incompetent, but also a scoundrel.

When he was young, he often drank alcohol and beat and scolded his wife when he was drunk. Even after he had a son, Yu Huanshui, he never fulfilled his responsibilities as a father.

Yu Huanshui grew up in such a family atmosphere, so he has great defects in his character, such as telling lies.

In addition to drinking and beating, Yu Huanshui's father also brought young and beautiful women to anger his mother, who is now a widow with a son.

Later, the mother couldn't bear the beating anymore, and the two divorced.

After the divorce, my father's life was still comfortable, but he still failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father.

Yu Huanshui lived with his mother like this. Yu Huanshui's mother was a strong woman. She shouldered the burden of the family alone and supported Yu Huanshui to go to school.

The kind side of Yu Huanshui comes from his mother.

Of course, Yu Huanshui was not a good person when he was a child. His mother fell in love with a man in the town. The man treated her very well, and she wanted to marry him.

But Yu Huanshui kept making his mother angry, and finally, for the sake of her son Yu Huanshui, she gave up her personal happiness.

In the end, he died alone shortly after Yu Huanshui's car accident.

Yu Huanshui's mother was a strong, virtuous and tolerant woman, who ended up dying alone.

On the contrary, Yu Huanshui's father, a selfish and pathetic man, enjoys Yu Huanshui's 2,000 yuan pension every month, and comes to Yu Huanshui to suck his blood from time to time.

So Lin Hao said coldly:
"Let me tell you, you divorced when I was ten years old, and the 130,000 yuan was saved bit by bit by my mother after she paid for my college education."

"You and Bilian helped that bitch to get money. I'm lucky I didn't kill you!"

Upon hearing this, Yu's father on the other end of the phone roared in rage:

"You~you~you~you~you are disobedient and unfilial~!"

However, Lin Hao felt happy after listening to his abuse, and then he gently pressed the hang-up button.

"Huh~!" Lin Hao let out a long breath.

Then Lin Hao looked at Li Qian, who was staring at him intently, and said:
"Would you think I'm heartless, just like those rich but unscrupulous bosses who are worth billions but are unwilling to share even a bit with their loved ones?"

"Will you think I'm cold-blooded and unmanly~!"

Before Lin Hao could finish his words, Li Qian held the grief-stricken Lin Hao's head tightly in her arms, and then patted his back gently to comfort him.

Li Qian knew that this extremely fragile man at the moment did not need her to answer anything, she just needed to be by his side and accompany him silently!
