Chapter 615: Chapter 615 Skills Without Talent_1

This painting is so good! It’s so good that it doesn’t seem like a kindergarten child could have painted it!

"This painting is quite good. It looks like this little friend has taken painting classes outside of school," Mr. Guo said.

The painting was good, with visible skills that stood out among the kindergarten children, absolutely exceptional.

But in Mr. Guo’s eyes, it was nothing special.

To Mr. Guo, such a level of painting was merely the result of extracurricular art courses.

It had only technique, no artistry, and lacked the creativity and childlike innocence that should be present in a child of this age.

"Mr. Guo, it seems that this child is quite talented. To be able to paint like this at such an age is really remarkable," Cai Jianye commented.

He could tell that the painting was not great, it merely had technique.

But he believed that if a four-year-old girl could paint to this standard, it showed she had a high potential for learning and was highly moldable.

At that moment, Cai Jianye was tempted to take her on as a disciple.

Mr. Guo laughed and said, "Jianye, this kind of mass-produced piece is not talent. The talent in painting is about creation, not copying. Learning technique quickly is of no use. If you learn like this now, you might still be at the same level ten years later."

Although Mr. Guo was blindly optimistic when it involved matters related to Susu,

as soon as Susu was out of the picture, Mr. Guo was rational and professional.

Mr. Guo’s words left Cai Jianye deep in thought.

Meanwhile, Chu Yanxi could no longer maintain the smile on her face.

What the heck, why say she had only technique and no talent? Wasn’t it talent to be able to paint like this at four years old?

And how could he predict that her level would remain the same ten years later? As long as she was given the opportunity to learn well, she could definitely make significant breakthroughs!

Mr. Guo continued to Cai Jianye, "If you don’t believe me, you can have her try painting something else. If you watch her while she paints, you’ll know whether what I’m saying is true or not."

Cai Jianye trusted Mr. Guo’s judgment, but to leave no regrets, he still decided to test her again.

So Cai Jianye said to Chu Yanxi, "Little friend, could you paint another picture? You can choose the theme yourself, and of course, it would be better if it expressed some of your own ideas."

Because she was a little girl with limited comprehension, Cai Jianye didn’t dare set too many expectations.

"Sure!" Chu Yanxi replied with a smile, though inside she was seething with frustration.

She had heard Mr. Guo and Cai Jianye’s conversation clearly.

Mr. Guo actually thought she had only technique but no talent?

Was her well-painted picture really no better than Qin Susu’s messy scribbles?

Since Cai Jianye wanted to give her another chance, she would grasp this opportunity and show them that her painting was definitely not inferior to Qin Susu’s!

Under everyone’s gaze, Chu Yanxi began to paint.

Although her hand holding the brush wasn’t very strong and her wrist lacked force, she had the skills, and to produce a fine piece that surpassed her age was not an issue.

However, Chu Yanxi failed to notice that as her painting gradually took shape on the paper, the frown on Cai Jianye’s face behind her grew deeper and deeper.

And on Mr. Guo’s face was a look of confident and assured amusement.

Finally, Chu Yanxi finished painting. She turned to Mr. Guo and Cai Jianye with a hopeful smile, expecting to see astonishment on their faces, longing to hear words of praise from their mouths...
