Nine hundred and fifty-ninth chapters write calligraphy on the spot
The tattoo artist is also an artist. The Chinese characters with bang pattern are suspected of being plagiarized. However, for other patterns, he has a very high artistic level, especially good at hand-painting his original animals and portraits, the jason-jan-abdomen, the avatar of the Damo on his arm, and the line of "god strengthens me’, are all his famous masterpieces, and countless tattoo artists around the world follow this.
The problem is that in recent years, more and more customers want to tattoo Chinese characters on themselves. Every now and then, some people consult Bang or ask him to design Chinese characters like Jason.
Bang only went to the tenth grade and was a high school dropout. He hadn't even read a few books on British and American literature. How could he talk about understanding Chinese characters?
It is said that if there is no diamond, don’t take care of porcelain work, but everyone’s needs cannot be dissatisfied. Otherwise, wouldn’t it affect his reputation among the old customer base? So bang boasted that there is no problem, and Chinese characters are a minor meaning.
He searched Chinese characters online with his teeth, borrowed the works of other tattoo artists, and picked out the artistic fonts from Microsoft's character library and used them for themselves. Anyway, those customers couldn't understand them like him. They just asked them to look cool and unique.
But recently he has felt that he was in trouble and fooling people for a while, but he can't continue like this for a long time. If there is any ambiguity in the face, the negative thing will be caught and made a joke, his customers will not be able to tear him up!
Bang considered whether to go to college to hire a teacher who is good at Chinese or directly hire a Chinese character consultant in the store, but he has no connections in education and academics. Usually, academic masters and Chinese people rarely have tattoos. Bang was a bad boy since he was a child, never dealing with academic masters, and no Chinese friends.
When he felt the most headache, Jason brought him a light.
Bang walked to Liu Lan and stretched out his hand to her with a smile, "Hello, Your Highness, the beautiful princess, I'm very happy to see you."
Although his name is humorous and his expression is very friendly, Liu Lan couldn't help but feel angry when she saw a person covered in tattoos so close to her. Her former master had watched many science fiction disaster films, and the monsters and villains in it looked like this. No matter how kind his smile was, and with a colorful tattoo on his face, they all looked extremely ferocious. Liu Lan suddenly felt that compared to this person, Jason's tattoo looked too gentle.
Even though she was a little scared, she still reached out and held Bang's hand, "Hello, Mr. Frost, the princess is my online name, just call me man."
bang smiled and said, "Okay, Man, but in my eyes you are a princess."
His words did not mean to praise Liu Lan. Artists are particularly pursuing beautiful things and are particularly picky. The only ones that can make him sincerely praise him is the real beauty. He believes that Liu Lan's appearance is perfect, like a fresh and lovely white rose, which is very clean white, like white paper. Her eyes are shining, like two dazzling gems, and her face is full of purity. Although she is wearing ordinary clothes and carrying a student-like schoolbag, she is still beautiful and pure, with the true nature of being treated gentlely in the world. Such a temperamental girl is either rich or noble.
No wonder Jason chased her to China, but gave up halfway and chose to give up. She didn't match them at all!
bang praised Liu Lan again and said, "I have followed your youtube. I am your fan. I have watched every video of you. I like the most "Spring River Moon Night" you posted last night. The calligraphy you wrote is exquisite, which really opened my eyes."
Liu Lan thought, no wonder so many celebrities like his tattoos. She is a passerby who comes to the United States for a short time and will never take care of his business. He is so polite, he has a high emotional intelligence and can do things.
She quickly complimented, "Mr. Harmer also mentioned you to me in the morning, saying that you are a great tattoo artist."
jason: "????" When did he say it, why didn't he know?
Bang believed it and was very happy. He said to Jason, "My dear brother, I will give you 10% off for your purchase today."
Jason raised his eyebrows and was not grateful, "You have never given me a discount before."
"That's because you didn't let me know this lady before," bang shrugged, "maybe you'll have more discounts in the future."
"What are your plans?"
......
The two of them communicated very quickly, and Liu Lan couldn't keep up with the rhythm. She stood next to her like a fool. She simply walked around and visited the furnishings in this room. She was still a little novel in her heart when she came to the tattoo for the first time.
This is Bang's private office. It is quite hidden at the end of the second floor of the store. When they came in, Liu Lan noticed a sign hanging on the door, saying "Private, please do not enter". The most eye-catching thing in the office is the tattoo photos of the entire wall, which should be all the patterns designed by Bang for his customers. Liu Lan looked up with her neck and found several patterns on Jason's body.
Jason over there called her, "man, we're starting, you just write on this table."
"Oh, OK," Liu Lan took off her schoolbag and took out her pen, ink, paper and ink,
Bang cleared his desk, and he couldn't wait to see Liu Lan write calligraphy. He was curious about Liu Lan's writing tools. He asked this and that, and Jason didn't understand. Liu Lan patiently explained to them both. Bang was amazed at the magical, "It turns out that this carbon rod is equivalent to ink, and this long-haired pen is equivalent to a water-absorbing pen."
After learning about the usage of the inkstone and ink strips, Bang personally prepared a glass of cold water for Liu Lan and offered to help her grind the ink. He learned very quickly. After a while, the inkstone was filled with ink. If this scene was seen by Bang's subordinates and apprentices, they would definitely be shocked. When did their boss have such kindness to women? Last time, a famous American queen asked him to have a tattoo, but he refused it at once because he did not make an appointment.
Liu Lan stood at the table, two tattooed men with high noses and deep eyes stood on both sides of her, like two door gods, staring at her every move with bright eyes. She was in a state of sweat. When she participated in the calligraphy competition, she didn't feel that she was so valued.
Liu Lan asked Jason which font to choose.
"The kind of font you wrote in the video," Jason said, and realized a question, "Do you know other fonts?"
Liu Lan nodded, "Yes, I know two other fonts, namely Kai and Li. The fonts I posted on the Internet are seal script, which is what I am best at. The other two I am still learning are at the apprentice level."
Jason was thinking, and before he could speak, Bang said first, "Can you write down all three fonts and let J choose?"
"Yes," Liu Lan had nothing to hesitate. There were only eight words in total, and it would be no trouble to write them three times.
Her pleasure made Bang feel even more fond of her. He was in a tattoo business and hated serving customers who were both lazy and troubled, but he never thought that this time, he and Jason were both lazy and troubled.
