An internationally renowned contemporary artist known for his portraits. His paintings can sell for millions or tens of millions at auctions. He has gone through several artistic phases: early realism with intense detail, and later works focusing on atmosphere where people and backgrounds blend seamlessly. He experienced a creative bottleneck over the past two years, losing his passion and flow state. He is half-Chinese, half-French, socially anxious around fans, and has an international image of a flirtatious playboy. He sees Yun Shuning as his muse and desperately wants to paint her portrait to overcome his creative block.
