死后我又叒叕爆红了 [After I Died, I Became Popular Again]
Tang Dynasty painter Fu Yi died and found himself reincarnated in the modern world in the body of a young master named Qi Linqing whose economic resources had been cut-off.
In order to make ends meet, he started to diligently paint and write calligraphy.
Everyone was waiting for this young master to make a joke of himself as he tried to fake his painting skills, but what really happened was ——
The director of the costume drama cried bitterly: Come to my play!
People’s Daily: # Qi Linqing, the youngest genius youth in traditional Chinese painting #
Facing the media interview, Qi Linqing said very honestly: “I am actually very average at painting.”
After all, he was poor in his previous life.
The crowd: “?”
Why do you have misconceptions about your own strength?
Later, the well-known master of Chinese painting exclaimed, “Your brushwork looks like the Saint of Painting ……”
Upon hearing the phrase Saint of Painting, Qi Linqing hastened to be modest: “I don’t dare to be.”
Master: “……Saint of Painting Fu Yi.”
As Qi Linqing finally realised this: “?”
Fu Yi, was this not himself??

The end was a little bit rushed but a lovely story overall.
Knowing that Fu Yi was based on Wang Ximeng and his famous painting was based on A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains makes it so much better.
A rlly cute story overall.

3.6/5
MC is very cute in a dazed sort of ditzy way. He doesn't really understand much about the modern era and has no real drive or focus to put much effort into trying to boost himself up monetarily or in popularity. All his focus falls into painting and it's pretty refreshing to be honest. It changes a bit towards the later half of the story, which I wasn't particular towards, but never enough to be a big deal.
Overall, I'd mostly say it was an average but good story. Nothing sticks out super strongly but the MC was a nicely balanced character, the relationship between MC and ML was cute and the painting aspects were pretty fun to read. Some of the pacing was a little slow, but not enough to change much of my opinion. Definently a relaxing read.
Like
• Centered around painting. Pretty unique and rather refreshing
• MC is cute. He's a very sweet but lost character as he tries to adapt enough to modern times while being focused on painting
Dislike
• Slow pacing. It can be good and bad, but when it's really slow it can be hard to get through
• *spoiler* Wasn't a fan of the showbiz aspects in the later half. I'm fairly sure it was to pad out the number of chapters and it felt kind of clunky *spoiler*

My notes are gonna be quite long. Hehe.
What I liked about this novel:
1. Learned a lot about traditional Chinese painting, and its key differences with Western art.
2. This sort of broke the trope of a lot of MCs and MLs. Don't want to spoil it, but the MC and ML are very different from the usual.
What I have tons of problems with:
1. Author did Qi Lele dirty for no justifiable reason.
2. Author tends to forget some of the things they established in earlier chapters (e.g. ML who is tanned suddenly gets described as pale-skinned in later chapters).
3. Everyone's default setting is mean, like they have the emotional capacity of a 3-year-old, the teachers included.
4. MC is Mary Sue.
5. Why does everyone have to be faceslapped repeatedly? Does no one do research in here, including the university professors?
I was able to finish the novel, so this is a good thing for me. It means I find the writer promising. They just need a good editor to help iron out the inconsistencies because THERE'S A LOT.

Writing itself is enjoyable, and it was nice to see the return of traditional techniques without making it out to be too nationalistic. I really appreciate that the MC just wants to delve into art, but still spreads traditional pride and glory of the nation's history.
Novel itself is very surface level. It's meant to be the kind you turn off your brain for and enjoy the OP protagonist's journey to recognition. In this case, that part worked fine: it's pretty satisfying to see him overturn their opinions and the author gives a very surface level explanation why he's so OP (not that he needs one, but it gives a little more depth to the OP-ness).
Left a very long review on NU, but tldr: plot is fun, MC is cool, character development for everyone else is nearly nonexistent and saddeningly so.

Every time the plot builds up tension, it gets resolved so simply and suddenly that I'm like "Did it happen already? Was that it?"
Reincarnated x reincarnated sounded interesting but it's basically just genius artist x influential admirer which still makes it sound a little interesting but it's really not. Nothing really builds well-not any plotlines nor any relationships nor any characters, and then there's no payoff anyway.
It's mainly "Hey watch these 2 rich teenagers dominate their respective fields." 90% of the plotlines are "No one believes the genius artist is a genius artist. He proves them wrong." The same kind of face slapping, rinse and repeat.
At least the main couple is good to each other, I guess.
