Why Did My Art Student Travel to the End of the Ming Dynasty?

This novel is different from the traditional "scientific research to save the country" and "historical boss" routines of late Ming time travel stories. The protagonist Li Yan (formerly Lin Yan) is an ordinary art student - he has no top science knowledge and is not proficient in the historical details of the late Ming Dynasty. He is only a distant relative three generations away from the king of Chuang Li Zicheng, and he is forced to join the rebel army and become a soldier. In troubled times, the people could not even have enough food and clothing. Li Yan had no chance to show off his painting skills. He could only arm himself with the artistic thoughts (aesthetic cognition, empathy, compositional thinking, and sense of order) accumulated by art students, and use "beauty of content" to awaken the spiritual resonance of the people at the bottom. He could gather people's hearts and pull up the team like a leader. He did not follow the old path of Li Zicheng and adhered to the belief of independent mountains to fight against the troubled times and resist the Qing army. The protagonist does not engage in force or invention. The core relies on the core of thinking of art students - using a sense of order to regulate the team, using aesthetic consensus to unite people's hearts, and using content beauty (fairness, hope, dignity) to infect others, rather than pure painting skills; The whole process is fast-paced, exciting, and full of twists and turns. It includes the helplessness of being forced to rebel, the thrill of building a team and establishing rules, the relationship with Li Zicheng, and the twists and turns of fighting against the Qing army and dealing with all parties, which is full of emotional tension; From the formal beauty that could not be realized in the early stage (painting, exquisite decoration) to the formal beauty that is gradually implemented in the later stage (unified military uniforms, regular camps, standardized logos), a healthy and dynamic team ideological and cultural culture will be built simultaneously, so that art can be realized from "concept" to "power".
