There are two Fan Ceng in history.
"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are grievances."

Although this is just a line in the movie, it tells the essence of the struggle for interests after the emergence of human civilization. Therefore, people lamented: "When is the revenge?" They also warned, "Don't do to others what you don't want them to do to you." .

However, as the saying goes, people can't help themselves in Jianghu. However, any dispute involving one's own interests will inevitably lead to accumulated grievances. Such a dispute will never end, and finally we have to fall into a painful situation, which not only brings harm to each other, but also brings pain to ourselves.

Throughout the history of the world for thousands of years, there are countless examples of disputes arising from interest disputes, from Wang Guan aristocrats to pawn and farmers. However, some of them have a special relationship with their father, son, mentor and family, but their feud is also very special. For example, two modern painters, Fan Ceng and Huang Yongyu, are apprentices and apprentices, and there is an unexpected feud between them.

This master of modern painting and calligraphy was reviled by many people all his life, but he only scolded his former teacher, Huang Yongyu. Why?

In fact, it is really difficult for outsiders to judge how the feud between Fan Ceng and Huang Yongyu came about. Perhaps, it is really because of the disagreement between them.

First of all, Fan Ceng "reprimanded" Huang Yongyu.

Fan Ceng once said in an interview that many people attacked him and abused him. But he never pays attention to clowns and never pays attention to scolding. Judging from his attitude, he seems to be the kind of person who can write and draw quietly without being disturbed by outside remarks.

However, in fact, the "war of abuse" between him and Huang Yongyu has a long history. Huang Yongyu used to be Fan Ceng's teacher, but Fan Ceng was somewhat dissatisfied with this teacher. He thinks Huang Yongyu's paintings are monotonous, realistic and absurd. Even published an article saying that the other party's painting is neither wireless nor colorless, and even the door of Chinese painting has not stepped in.

Of course, for some "attacks" by Fan Ceng, Huang Yongyu showed no weakness. He countered the other side with his own paintings. For example, Huang Yongyu drew a parrot with the words "Birds are good birds, but they talk a lot". He used this painting to allude to Fan Ceng, saying that he was a talented man, but he had a bad temper and spoke rashly.

The dispute between master and apprentice lasted for more than ten years. The craziest thing that Fan Ceng did was to draw a picture called "The Feeling of Rogue". In this picture, a dog is chained by a man with a bone in his mouth. Obviously, this dog refers to Huang Yongyu in Fan Ceng's painting.

How far have these two gone? It is said that as soon as we met, we were going to fight, and we were going to open a gourd ladle for each other with a beer bottle in our hands.

Since Fan Ceng scolded Huang Yongyu so much, what's the feud between them?

In fact, this is really a lot of disputes, and no one can tell who is right or wrong between them. However, Fan Ceng himself said that although there was a war of abuse between them, they didn't hate each other in their hearts.

Second, gratitude and resentment.

Some people say that the feud between Fan Ceng and Huang Yongyu is due to Shen Congwen, but if we have a deeper understanding, we will find that from the perspective of the parties, each has its own "beliefs" and "reasons". Therefore, from the perspective of onlookers, I am afraid there is no convincing argument about who is right or wrong.

Later, when Fan Ceng was interviewed by Beijing Youth Daily 20 14, he talked about the "feud" between him and Huang Yongyu. He said that Huang Yongyu first wrote an article in the newspaper to scold him, and then he also wrote an article to refute it. He also said that although he has been cursing each other in newspapers for many years, he does not hate each other in his heart.

In the interview, he also revealed a little thing, that is, there was an exhibition of his works with Huang Yongyu during the Olympic Games, and they met at a meeting before the exhibition. However, they didn't want to "fight" as soon as they met, as outsiders said. Instead, they looked at each other like old friends they hadn't seen for years, and then gave each other a silent hug. At the exhibition, Fan Ceng's paintings are opposite to those on display in Huang Yongyu.

Fan Ceng told reporters that when they were young, the relationship between them was very good. When Huang Yongyu was persecuted, he stood up and defended Huang Yongyu, and went to visit him in the cabin where Huang Yongyu lived. Later, after some outsiders provoked them, their relationship changed.

Of course, Fan Ceng also admitted that people's feelings are very complicated and totally different from what outsiders think.

It can be seen that the "war of abuse" between Fan Ceng and Huang Yongyu is mainly caused by their different personalities. In fact, although they "scold" in the newspaper, they don't have that kind of "deep hatred" in private.

Even so, does this mean that Fan Ceng's character is not very good?

In fact, judging from the impression of his classmates in Fan Ceng, Fan Ceng's personality is not so bad as to be "honest and frank".

Third, Fan Ceng's "frankness"

In Fan Ceng's classmate Ji Sui's impression, Fan Ceng showed rich knowledge of literature and art in junior high school, and many students have heard some stories about art from him. Therefore, he is very popular with his classmates and teachers.

Among the students, Fan Ceng and Yuan Yunsheng have the best relationship and can play together at ordinary times. But the way they get along with each other is different from that of ordinary people. Instead, it is like what people now call "damaging friends." They often don't give up the opportunity to "attack" each other.

From the first day of junior high school, but every time after class, Fan Ceng and Yuan Yunsheng each occupy a blackboard and draw with chalk on their own turf. The contents of the paintings are cartoons that vilify each other's father. They made the whole class laugh in this way of "hurting each other" Sometimes, they are fascinated by their paintings. When the bell rang, the teacher came in and saw that the blackboard was occupied by two people, so he turned away.

Another time, when the teacher introduced himself in the first class, he said where he lived, and then the whole class suddenly raised their hands and said, "Come and see me when you are free." . In another class, the teacher may have stomach upset. During the lecture, the whole class burst into laughter, and then the teacher seriously said it was ridiculous. Aren't you going to let go? Fan Ceng raised his hand and said "put" at the same time, which once again attracted the students to laugh.

Therefore, in the impression of Fan Ceng's classmates, he was so "honest and frank" in junior high school that he dared to meet the teacher directly. Judging from the way he gets along with his classmates, he is not only "honest and frank", but also particularly "damaging".

So, what is the reason for the "war of abuse" between Fan Ceng and Huang Yongyu? Perhaps there are some reasons that are really unknown to outsiders, but his personality in dealing with people should also be a big factor. Maybe they had some differences at first, but then they "scolded" each other badly and "attacked" each other in newspapers for more than ten years.

Conclusion:

August 29th, 20 14, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and France, in order to better promote cultural and artistic exchanges between the two countries. Peking University and China Academy of Fine Arts jointly held "Lift and Fly —— Joint Exhibition of Cardo Sculpture and Fan Ceng Painting".

The exhibition includes not only the works of Caldo, a contemporary French sculptor, which was exhibited in China for the first time, but also the works of 50 deputy representatives of Fan Ceng. After knowing Cardo, Fan Ceng made a lot of contributions to the promotion of Sino-French cultural exchanges.

As far as Fan Ceng's character evaluation is concerned, there are indeed many masters who have negative comments on him. For example, Shen Congwen, Li Kuchan and Li Ao "despised" him. But at the same time, there are also some masters who have made positive comments on him, such as Ji Xianlin, Qian Zhongshu and Yang Zhenning. They all rated Fan Ceng as a contemporary master.
