Chapter 757: Shocking the Whole Internet
At around 12 p.m. Zi Yi and the others went out to have lunch.
The reporters who had been waiting outside wanted to follow them. Just then, Lu Jingye’s gold medal assistant, Secretary Shao suddenly appeared and said to them, “Everyone, the art exhibition will be open to you for a duration of 30 minutes.”
The moment the reporters heard that, they nearly jumped around in joy.
Secretary Shao added. “However, every news agency is only allowed two reporters. Nothing inside is allowed to be touched.”
“Yes, sure.”
“It’s absolutely not a problem.”
“We promise we won’t damage a single thing inside.”
Only then was Secretary Shao satisfied. He raised his wrist and checked the time. “It’s currently 12.25 p.m. and the art gallery will be closed at 12.55 p.m. You can enter once you show your employee ID.”
There were too many reporters here today. One of the news agencies had practically sent all their staff. Right now, they were only allowing two reporters from each agency. Needless to say, only the top reporters of each agency went in.
The moment the group of reporters was allowed inside, they were stunned by the paintings displayed inside.
“Heavens, isn’t this one of Bai Lao’s most famous paintings?”
“This painting is by Elder Gu.”
“This painting is by Elder Li.”
…
The moment they stepped inside, the flock of reporters had received a huge shock and they could not bear to move their cameras away from those paintings.
In particular, the design of the art gallery was an eye-opener for them, stunning them greatly.
“The walls in here are all moveable. Also, all these background sceneries… to think that they perfectly align with each and every one of the paintings. It simply complements the painting!”
“It’s too beautiful!
“It’s too shocking!”
“I feel that I can write an article for each of the paintings.”
The reporters continued taking photos of each of the paintings.
It had only been a while and a reminder voice sounded. “Everyone, 15 minutes have already passed.”
The moment the voice sounded, all the reporters panicked.
“We only took pictures of a few paintings and there are still so many here. What to do?”
“This won’t do, I have to speed up.”
Everyone subconsciously increased their pace.
Even so, they were still so shocked in front of each and every painting that they forgot how to react.
By the time only five minutes were left remaining, the reporters only managed to arrive at Dou Xiangling’s paintings
The moment they saw her paintings, they were already regretting not reserving more time to look at her paintings and take photos.
In the last two minutes when they took photos of Zi Yi’s painting, the reporters almost burst into tears.
Secretary Shao stood by the side and looked at the reporters whose intestines were turning green due to regret and he heartlessly reminded them. “You have two minutes remaining. Please hurry up.”
There was a female reporter who hastily made her way over and pleaded, “Secretary Shao, can you please give us 10 more minutes… oh wait, Five more minutes?”
“No.” Secretary Shao looked at this watch.
The female reporter panicked and quickly went to take photos.
This time around, everyone did not even have time to comment on Zi Yi’s paintings. Their high-definition cameras quickly took photos of the paintings and they did not even linger for a second.
When the time was up, Secretary Shao said, “Everyone, you have 15 minutes of question and answer time. It’s just right outside, so please head outside.”
As soon as he spoke, the lights in the art gallery dimmed and those walls started to move. All of the paintings were protected by a layer of fluorescence.
The reporters were stunned to the extent they forgot to breathe.
They hastily filmed the scene.
“What are those fluorescent lights?”
“Did you realize it? All the background scenes of the paintings have all disappeared.”
“Oh my, it’s too advanced, isn’t it?”
Even if everyone did not want to leave, they could only reluctantly follow Secretary Shao outside.
The cold wind was blowing outside and the flock of reporters surrounded Secretary Shao but none of them were feeling cold at all. Instead, all of them were so excited that their cheeks were red.
Secretary Shao said, “I will be answering questions related to this art gallery for 15 minutes. Everyone, please make use of this time.”
“Why is it Secretary Shao who is holding the question and answer session?”
“Why aren’t Second Young Master Lu and Miss Zi aren’t coming forward?”
There was no need to mention how disappointed the reporters were and there were inevitably traces of discontentment in their voices.
Secretary Shao stood there without talking and allowed them to waste their time.
A few minutes later, everyone suddenly reacted and quickly asked questions, “Can I know who had designed those ultra-modern scenes in [Future Gallery]?”
“It was designed by the three bosses.”
“Can the materials used in the art gallery be purchased in the market?”
“No. Everything is fully customized.”
“The three bosses Secretary Shao mentioned. Besides Miss Zi and Dou, who is the last one?”
“Ian, Country M’s Count successor.”
The moment the reporters heard this news, they continued asking more questions.
“The paintings inside the art gallery are all the masterpieces of the various masters. Miss Zi and Miss Dou have exhibited many paintings. Will all these paintings be available for auction?”
“The various master’s paintings will not be. Miss Zi and Miss Dou’s paintings are yet to be confirmed.”
…
Having 15 minutes for a question and answer session was too short, but Secretary Shao was uncompromising. When the 15 minutes ended, he left under the protection of a group of bodyguards.
The reporters could only turn around and return to their offices.
Subsequently, all the staff in the news agencies did not even bother with their lunch and worked overtime to edit the pictures, the press release, and publish the article on their official websites.
All the news agencies had published their article about the [Future Gallery] in their headline column.
There were originally many people who were paying attention to the art exhibition.
As soon as so many famous news agencies published the articles, the various reputable internet celebrities both locally and internationally quickly reposted them on their social media accounts. For a period of time, all the self-media platforms and short video platforms were all displaying the photos from the exhibition.
“This art exhibition is too high-tech, isn’t it? To be able to design such an exhibition, this person must be a top student!”
“How can a top student possibly design this kind of ultra-modern art exhibition? Space science, refraction science, and magnetic field science are all involved in this exhibition and it includes such a wide range of knowledge that even university professors are unable to accomplish such a feat, not to mention a measly top student.”
“Could it be Zi Yi’s design? I feel that it’s very likely.”
“You outsiders, this is an art exhibition. Why are you looking at the design of the art gallery? Don’t you see that the paintings displayed are all the masterpieces of various masters? Hahaha…”
“Heavens! This painting of Elder Bai… someone offered 150 million before to buy it but he did not sell the painting. To think that he had gifted it to [Future Gallery].”
“It’s the same for Elder Gu’s painting.”
“And also Elder Li’s painting.”
People from other industries were marveling at the interior design of the art gallery and even many university professors were studying and discussing it.
The Painting and Calligraphy industry people were simply so amazed that they wished that they could drill into the screen and enjoy the paintings in person.
There was a huge discussion about the art gallery exhibition and all the web browsers had been upgraded an nth number of times before they were finally stable.
All the paintings at the beginning were all slow shots of video. However, the more paintings they saw, the shorter the film time.
The moment everyone saw Zi Yi’s paintings, they exploded.
“Gosh! Oh, Heavens! Zi Yi’s painting really doesn’t disappoint. It’s extremely artistic!”
“Why was Zi Yi’s painting placed at the end? Moreover, why was the time used to take those photos so short?”
“Why isn’t there even an explanation to go along with the paintings?!”
“Are the reporters rushing to submit their work? A painting like that should be left to be slowly appreciated by everyone!”
