Overcoming the Stone in Front of You (Part 2)

Stimulated by this incident, the painter left the painful place, sought new tutelage, and practiced day and night. Heaven does not disappoint the diligent; more than ten years later, he finally made a name for himself and became a renowned figure in the art world.

Seeing that this matter would greatly damage his reputation, he immediately rushed to find the painter overnight, apologized to him, and paid 200,000 to buy back the portrait. This young painter, with his unyielding spirit, made the rich man bow his head. This young man's name was "Picasso."
