Ethan Xie’s Weibo is called “XN_zxcvbnm”, which is very difficult to remember.
Someone once wondered what the abbreviation was for the series of numbers, and finally found out that he simply pressed the letter on the bottom line of the keyboard.
Ethan Xie has always been low-key. There are not many fans on this Weibo. Most of them were up during the last Christmas poster.
Even in the industry, only a few close original painters know his identity.
Commercial manuscripts cannot be published in advance without permission. His Weibo only posts copying works from earlier years, and when posting, it also notes that it is copying exercises and does not conduct any commercial use. In theory, there is no problem.
But the problem is precisely in these copy works.
Someone compared his and copied works with the original overlays, and found that they were completely overlapped!
Later, some people questioned that his paintings were not copying, but tracing.
For a painter, tracing is similar to plagiarism and is a very serious allegation.
Ethan Xie’s eyes widened: “tracing the picture?”
“Yes.” Lucas Yan’s voice was trembling with anger, “I know you are not on Weibo, and I didn’t pay much attention to it. Someone has already made a long Weibo to hang you up.”
Ethan Xie was not as angry as he was: “Oh.”
Lucas Yan knew his temper, and said helplessly, “What are you doing? It’s your business this time, right? Can you have a snack?”
Ethan Xie said calmly: “I don’t go on Weibo very much, they just hang up if they like it.”
Lucas Yan couldn’t figure out how he could still be so quiet: “Then you let them pour dirty water?”
The long Weibo that linked him has been transferred to tens of thousands, which is quite a surprise to Ethan Xie.
He is not an internet celebrity painter, and even if he is hung up, he would not have such a big posture.
The number one hot repost is a big V painter with hundreds of thousands of fans.
Qianfan Guojin V: This… even if it is a copy, it is impossible to stack it completely.
Her Weibo alone spread thousands of reposts.
Pulling further down, there are still many painters who add V also questioned.
...Even if it is a master, there will still be discrepancies between the copy and the original painting, which can be completely stacked, emmmmmm
...Isn’t the original circle just the overlap circle?
...100% coincidence, what else can it be without drawing.
Ethan Xie could not laugh or cry: “Are they really learning to paint? How can they have so many fans?”
Lucas Yan: “What?”
“My copyings were all practiced casually. At that time, I didn’t draw very seriously. The fineness is completely incomparable with the original painting, but the outline can be superimposed.” Ethan Xie explained, “This is a solid foundation for a basic skill. For art students, it’s not difficult.”
Lucas Yan said, “If this is the case, then you should explain it like this.”
Ethan Xie shook his head: “It’s useless. Painting this thing is very basic. Some painters can’t paint by themselves, so they feel that others can’t. Moreover, most of the onlookers don’t understand painting.”
“You explain to them that they won’t listen, but will think you are quibbling.” Ethan Xie smiled self-deprecatingly, “So it was a waste of words.”
Lucas Yan snorted coldly: “Don’t you care about them?”
Ethan Xie squeezed the phone and whispered softly: “Our original artist is cooperating with Party A. Online reviews are not important, and it doesn’t matter if there are fans.”
Generally large companies have their own art teams, and some are handed over to outsourcing companies to find original painting designs, first look at design ability and style, and then look at project experience.
Those black and pink on the Internet are irrelevant to them.
Lucas Yan didn’t say a word.
Ethan Xie was silent for a moment, and then said: “And it’s not a big deal. It’s just a copy of the work I copied a few years ago. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it’s not a stone hammer at all.”
“That’s true,” Lucas Yan said. “It’s not that I didn’t speak for you.”
“Really.” Ethan Xie said honestly, “I don’t seem to see it.”
Lucas Yan said: “Not many, probably submerged in the people spraying you.”
Ethan Xie pulled down the comment, and he really saw one talking to him, of course, the replies below the comment were all scratching his mind.
Gabriel Zhuang had been sitting next to Ethan Xie and listened to the conversation between the two of them. At this moment, he also came to see his mobile phone.
“So you are an original painter?”
Ethan Xie nodded: “Well, I have done original design for several games before.”
Gabriel Zhuang asked: “What game?”
Ethan Xie told him about several projects he had received before.
Gabriel Zhuang checked on the Internet and was surprised: “You have such a high level, how come you have such a small number of fans on Weibo? You don’t even have many fans supporting you.”
Ethan Xie said indifferently: “It’s no use I want fans.”
Gabriel Zhuang flipped through Weibo for a while, and suddenly said, “It’s easy for you to clarify this matter.”
Ethan Xie looked up at him: “What?”
“Their so-called evidence is nothing more than a high overlap rate of overlapping images. Then you can tell them with facts that this evidence is simply untenable.”
Gabriel Zhuang raised the corners of his mouth and said, “You can make another copy and take a video to prove to everyone that you can do what they can’t do!”
This method is simple and effective, and Ethan Xie did not expect it.
He was just… too troublesome.
“Actually, there is no need to clarify.” Ethan Xie said, “After two days, the heat dissipates, and no one pays attention to this matter.”
Gabriel Zhuang raised his eyebrows and glanced at him: “So it’s best to clarify quickly while the heat is still there, otherwise it will be useless even if you post the video. Then you will be charged with the crime of drawing pictures.”
Ethan Xie shook his head: “I don’t care.”
Gabriel Zhuang said: “But someone cares.”
Ethan Xie was shocked for a few seconds: “Huh?”
Gabriel Zhuang glanced at him and said seriously: “I will care.”
Ethan Xie was so watched by him, his heartbeat missed a beat, staring at the phone in a daze: “…”
“It’s not your pot, why do you want you to carry it?” Gabriel Zhuang couldn’t help but stretched out his hand and rubbed his hair, his voice softened, “Besides me, your fans will also care.”
He pulled down Weibo and pointed to the comment: “Although there are not many, there are still fans who believe in you and defend you. Even if they are sprayed with blood, they still firmly believe in their opinions.”
The commented ID Ethan Xie did not know him, and had no interaction or exchange with him.
No matter how ups and downs the Internet is, it will not affect Ethan Xie’s real life.
With such a troublesome video recording, his temperament should have been rejected.
But looking at Gabriel Zhuang’s serious look, he moved his lips, and when he refused, it turned into a “good” word when he said it.
Gabriel Zhuang curled up his lips and smiled: “Besides, don’t you think that this kind of thing that clarifies yourself and slaps them in the face is very cool to do?”
Ethan Xie: “…”
…
Half an hour later, the account “XN_zxcvbnm” suddenly published a Weibo.
It was at the hottest time of the picture-tracing incident that Ethan Xie’s people who came to watch on Weibo saw the content of Weibo.
It is a live broadcast notification.
Click on the link and find that the anchor is drawing live.
The left side of the painting software is the original picture with a slightly smaller size, and the right side is a blank canvas with a larger size.
Ethan Xie directly typed up the draft on the blank canvas.
He didn’t think about the copying process of the live broadcast until later, mainly because he was afraid that someone would be entangled in the post-editing after the video was posted, so he started the live broadcast once and for all.
Not many people watched, but many people came in one after another.
Ethan Xie didn’t care and started painting with all his attention.
In fact, he hasn’t copied for many years. Painting is a process of continuous learning and progress. Blindly copying will only make himself stand still, and even lose originality and innovation.
Ethan Xie was rarely nervous while holding the pen.
After so many years, painting seems to have become an instinct for him. The brush strokes hardly need to be modified, and the outlines in his mind are outlined on the canvas.
When the draft on the canvas was roughly completed, a barrage suddenly flicked across the live broadcast room.
...? ? ? The anchor is copying backwards? ! !
Correct.
Ethan Xie curled her lips and smiled confidently.
The original image on the left and the draft image on the right are reversed upside down.
He not only wants to live stream the copy, but also broadcast the reverse copy!
-fcuk! What kind of fairy painting is this!
...The speed of drafting and tracing is too fast. I also quit and took a look to confirm that this is a live broadcast and no acceleration is on!
...The same is an art student, indicating that the brush has been thrown away.
Because it was just a clarification, Ethan Xie did not paint too finely, and the background was only slightly painted.
After about half an hour of touching, a lifelike copy of the picture has taken shape.
At this time, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room exceeded 1,000.
Some were fetched from Weibo, some were called from the group to watch, and some came to watch the big guys painting.
There are also a lot more barrage. Most of them want to see if they can overlap the original image in the end.
Gabriel Zhuang watched him drag the copied picture into the original file and asked, “Are you nervous?”
Ethan Xie smiled: “Don’t be nervous.”
Gabriel Zhuang raised his eyebrows and looked at him: “So confident?”
“I was a little uncertain before painting,” Ethan Xie said, “but now I believe in myself very much.”
He adjusted the size of the copy image to the same size as the original image, and lowered the copy image to 50% transparency.
At this time, the two pictures were still upside down, and everyone in the live broadcast room held their breath to watch him operate.
Click to flip vertically.
...! ! !
-fcuk! ! ! The outlines completely coincide! !
...Ahhhhhhhhhhh! ! ! Reverse copying can overlap! ! !
–tell me! Who vowed to say that copying can’t completely overlap! Slap!
...The boss said that I can not only overlap! My **** backward painting can overlap!
...The anchor is completely useless with reference lines. I kneel when I use the reference lines and cannot guarantee the overlap!
Ethan Xie ignored the barrage and opened a TXT document and typed in the document:
[For a clarification about the pictures posted on Weibo, the overlapping pictures can’t explain much.
Don’t use your own level to guess the level of others.
Some things you think are impossible to do, maybe just because you are not capable enough.
I hope everyone can paint seriously and behave well. 】
After writing this passage, he turned his head and asked Gabriel Zhuang: “Is this cool enough?”
Gabriel Zhuang looked at him with a faint smile and said, “Not enough.”
Ethan Xie frowned: “Um…”
He was thinking about what else to add, and a full-screen gift swept across the middle of the screen.
Mr. Blue Whale rewarded the anchor XN_zxcvbnm with a deep-water torpedo and gave a message:
...All, all, give, me, apology, apologize!
