There was Qi Baishi in the world, and the remaining ink still exists in the world.

Hello Tibetan friends, today we have invited Mr. Tang Fazhou, then the successor of Qi Baishi, the disciple of Qi Liangzhi, the president of the Chinese Qi Baishi Painting and Calligraphy Academy, the visiting professor of the Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts, the official image spokesperson of NetEase Group, the specially invited teaching and research director, the contracted painter of Beijing Fine Art Academy and Rong Bao Zhai, the expert of Qi Baishi's calligraphy and painting big data identification, the president of the Shanghai Qi Baishi Art Research Association, and the chief operating officer of Baishi Shantang Culture Media, Mr. Tang Fazhou, once heard Lu Yiyuan say: I have loved calligraphy and painting since childhood. For decades, I have been studying the art of calligraphy, and although I sometimes take advantage of the interest in painting, I can only be regarded as a layman and have never studied it specifically. When I was seventeen or eighteen years old when I was studying at Zhongzhou University in Kaifeng, I often heard people say that one of the great painters of modern China, Qi Baishi, but he never had the opportunity to meet him, nor had he seen his paintings, and only thought that he was on the throne of art and an unattainable figure.

After graduating from university, I taught English or Bahasa Malaysia in high school or teacher training for a long time. At that time, the life of the faculty was extremely difficult, and they often wanted to change careers. In 1943, another old classmate, Hou Jingru, who was the commander of the 92nd Army at the time, took a part of the recruits to Sichuan for training, passed through Runan, and invited me to join the army to participate in the anti-Japanese resistance, that is, he went west to serve as the secretary of the lieutenant colonel of the headquarters.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War in 1945, I was airlifted from Wuhan to take over Beiping, and lived in Shima Street for a day. This is exactly what I have been asking for for many years to meet this opportunity, so I drove with them to Mr. Qi's residence at No. 15 Straddle Hutong in Xicheng. As soon as we knocked on the door, Lao Yin, who was watching the door, opened the door and let us in.

At this time, Mr. Qi's nurse, Ms. Xia (Qi often called her Lao Xia), hurriedly came out of the backyard to welcome. I see this lady in her 30s, wearing a blue cheongsam, quiet and simple and generous. She used to be a nurse in a hospital, and seeing that Mr. Qi was old and lonely, she resolutely resigned because of her admiration for this art master, and devoted herself to nursing for him, which is rare.
We walked into the three north rooms of the middle courtyard and met Mr. Qi, an old man in his 80s, dressed in a loose robe, thin and kind, with a silver beard and floating breasts, which reminded me of the fairy-like characters described in old novels.
When Qi Lao saw us, he hurriedly got up from the recliner and welcomed us warmly, but I still didn't understand his Xiangtan accent.
In the middle of the house, there is a painting case, on which are placed the four treasures of the study and color plates, and there are precious products such as inkstone and jade washing for no reason. Qi Lao is a civilian painter in the end!
The floor was covered with paintings, dripping with ink and not yet dry, and they were left to dry. This is the first time I have appreciated Qi Lao's work, and I am a feast for my eyes. It turned out that these were all drawn for those people in the Political Department, it seems that they have already known each other, and they have a date, and Qi Lao has prepared a banquet and is waiting for us.

After eating, I thought it would be a pity to go back empty-handed like this, and I also asked for a painting from Qi Lao for the example of Hou Jihui and others. Qi Lao happily agreed, reached out and took down a piece of rice paper from the bookshelf, and I hurriedly added half an inkstone water to prepare for ink grinding. Qi Lao smiled: "You don't need so much water, just a little water." I quickly poured out the water again, and the water was less, and soon the ink was thickened. Qi Lao then stood still, stained with a large brush, dipped in Western red, and painted two large peaches first; Then he changed the pen and dipped it in ink, and drew the branches and leaves; But when I saw that the peach was as big as a bucket and the color was bright, I suddenly felt that the room was full of brilliance. I said, "Mr. Yanqi's paintings are all exquisite, especially the paintings of shrimp, which have been famous for a long time, but unfortunately I have not seen them, which is a pity; It's just that Mr. Qi is too tired today, and I don't dare to trouble anymore. ”

Who knew that Qi Lao didn't answer, and took out another piece of paper, Jia Yuyong, a few wipes, and drew nine prawns, vivid and realistic, with different expressions. Later, I hung it in the house with a big peach, one day was seen by Qi Lao's disciple Lou Shibai, he thought that they were all Qi Lao's fine products, rare, it must be Qi Lao at that time to take advantage of the stage, in order to produce this effect, after that, I became a frequent visitor to the Qi family. Some military and political giants often wrote letters to Commander Hou to give birth to old paintings, and they were all handled by me, and they were all painted as they went. According to Qi Lao's Runge, it is 60,000 yuan per square foot of legal currency, and I pay according to the amount, never a penny, and I bought more than 20 pieces before and after; Of course, the money was all received from the Quartermaster's Department.
