Today, I would like to push you the article of Mr. Huang Yongyu recommended by the magazine "Junior High School Students", Huang Yongyu, pen name Huang Xingbin, Huang Niu, Niu Fuzi. He is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Painting, a professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and a former director of the Department of Printmaking. Huang Yongyu received both primary and incomplete primary secondary education. Because of his family's poverty, he went out to earn a living at the age of 12 and worked as a child laborer in a small porcelain workshop in the mountains of Anhui and Fujian, and later moved to Shanghai, Taiwan and Hong Kong. At the age of 14, he began to publish his works, and for a period of time he focused on printmaking, and his unique style of printmaking works was well-known at home and abroad. At the age of 16, he began to make a living by painting and woodcuts. He once served as a small worker in the porcelain field, a primary school teacher, a middle school teacher, a family education librarian, a theater troupe trainee art team member, a newspaper editor, a film screenwriter and a professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, a vice chairman of the China Artists Association, an advisor to the 9th China Artists Association, and an honorary member of the 10th China Federation of Literary and Art Circles. He is also a close friend of the Chinese teacher, let us read the works of the elderly and learn the spirit of Mr. Huang.

When I talk about reading, I am talking about the reading of painters. This painter's reading is "unorthodox" reading, and I am a representative. I have no formal training and love to read miscellaneous books.

In my life, if I say hard work, painting is not very hard. Painting, at best, hard work is enough, making the best effort is enough. Really hard work is reading. It is not hard work, it is interested, there is a strong interest, and I like to read books since I was a child. Probably the reason I didn't fall was because I read books. Because the old society was so complicated, it was easy to learn badly. When I fled, I was carrying dozens of pounds of books, and the Japanese were chasing after me. I couldn't run, they were about to catch up with me, so I threw the books backwards, one by one, but still ran with the rest of the books. I have developed the habit of reading books and have to read books every day.

But reading books, if you are not a person who specializes in learning, there is a characteristic and a method of reading books, that is, do not study too deeply, just like Tao Yuanming said, "do not seek a solution" - do not seek too much understanding. We're not experts, we're not researching something. Reading is a joyous thing, and then it is learning knowledge. So generally speaking, I read a lot of books and read them very quickly. Even if you finish reading it, you can remember what is very wonderful in the book. Of course, my books are not lent to others, and those who lend them will generally not be found.

The knowledge of the painter is not specialized, he wants to spread a wide range of knowledge. There are some things that you need to study seriously, such as botany and zoology; some involve problems of law, such as petrology and geology, and you also need to study it. Because painting stones, painting animals, painting flowers and plants, you can use it. Some things you have seen, even if you look at history. Historical years, some representative figures, interesting characters, several major wars, and major political changes to remember. Others specialize in memorizing interesting things and vivid things, and spread the knowledge as much as possible. Then it's about getting into habits. If interest arises, it is not allowed to have sex, and after research, you get a lot of happiness from there, and painting can sometimes be used. For example, in the processing of characters, the emotion and style on the screen - this is obviously taught by the book. Especially for those of us who have not had the opportunity to enter formal schools, this is extremely useful. It gives us a lot of confidence. We would be very happy to meet a person who is smart and has read a lot of books and has a conversation with him once. Books are all smart, reading a book is like meeting a smart person, reading ten thousand books will meet ten thousand smart people, you say how cost-effective.

After reading many books, I tried to write poetry. I can compose ancient poetry, and I can do it in rhyme and rhyme. Even if there is too little reading to be used, there is no canon for poetry, there is no meaning, and there is no point in using the same canon. Every time the interest comes, the ancient poetry is finished, and it is quite troublesome. But if you don't look good, it's better to write vernacular poetry. The same goes for reading other people's ancient poems, and my taste is also very tricky.
