Lu Shanmin looked back and saw that it was the painter named Ying Tian.

He is still in a suit and leather shoes, the difference is that last time he was in a gray suit, this time he is in a black suit. The tie is also black, and the peculiar tree-shaped tie clip is still tucked over it. He really doesn't look like a painter.

Ying Tian walked slowly towards the three of them, like Sheng Tian and Hai Dongqing smiled and nodded.

Lu Shanmin was not familiar with him, so naturally he did not introduce Hai Dongqing and Sheng Tian to him.

"Is there anything wrong with Mr. Win"?

Ying Tian politely handed over an invitation letter and said, "I have an art exhibition at the Yuntai Convention and Exhibition Center this Saturday, and I hope Mr. Lu can enjoy the light and have a show at that time."

Lu Shanmin smiled, thinking that this was really a painter who pursued his life and profit, no wonder he would appear at Xue Liang's funeral today, and it is estimated that many people who came today were invited. said: "Thank you Mr. Ying for looking up to me, but I'm a layman who doesn't know anything about art, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."

When he said this, he was actually politely refusing. However, I don't know if Ying Tian didn't understand or deliberately pretended not to understand, and continued to smile and said: "Mr. Lu is too modest, I see that the pair of elegiac couplets you sent just now, the words and words are iron hooks and silver paintings, and they are clearly injected with soul and spirit into the words, this is everyone's handwriting, not comparable to ordinary calligraphers." Since ancient times, calligraphy and painting have not been separated, and if you can write such words, how can you not understand art."

Lu Shanmin frowned, "How can you be sure that the word was written by me, not by someone I asked."

Ying Tian smiled faintly, "The elegiac couplet sent today, no matter whether the calligraphy is good or bad, but the words are full of solemnity and sorrow, and only your words are murderous." Although I am not from the mall, I have made a lot of friends on weekdays, and I know a little bit that you and the Xue family do not deal with each other. Based on this, I guess that the words were probably written by your own hand."

After listening to Ying Tian's analysis, Lu Shanmin couldn't help but glance at this painter.

"Well, if I have time, I'll definitely go to the show."

Ying Tian thanked him, and then looked at Hai Dongqing and Sheng Tian, "If this young lady and the old gentleman are interested, they might as well cheer together."

Sheng Tian stared at Ying Tian lightly, except for Ying Tian who was dressed younger, the age of the two should not be much different. His old gentleman's title is a compliment. He is also a person who has seen the world, and he has also come into contact with some artists, most of whom are a little arrogant, but it is the first time I have seen an artist who lowers himself to compliment others like this, and is so angry that he is angry.

After the three of them got into the car, Lu Shanmin looked at the invitation letter and put it in his pocket.

"Nowadays, artists are becoming more and more like businessmen."

Hai Dongqing said lightly: "People who treat art as a business will not be much better at painting."

Lu Shanmin smiled: "Miss Hai also has research on art"?

"Any art is the crystallization of thought and spirit, if it is mixed with money, fame and fortune, it is equivalent to bringing shackles and restrictions to art, even if the painting is exactly the same as the photo, he is just a painter."

Lu Shanmin was a little surprised, he didn't expect Hai Dongqing to have such an opinion. Her statement is similar to that of her grandfather, who said more than once that if calligraphy does not have a personal soul and spirit, even if it is written exactly like a calligraphy, it can only be called being able to write.

Seeing that Sheng Tian had been bowing his head and pondering since he got into the car, Lu Shanmin asked, "Uncle Tian, is there something wrong?"

Sheng Tian said slowly: "This Ying Tian, I have an inexplicable feeling."

Lu Shanmin frowned slightly, although he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Ying Tian, but now he was much more cautious than before, although Sheng Tian might not be able to beat Hai Dongqing now, but he was in the late stage of the Yi Marrow Realm for decades, and his experience was much richer than him.

"How does it feel"?

Sheng Tian shook his head, "I can't say it either, maybe I've been worrying about the East China Sea too much recently."

Hai Dongqing frowned, "It's not that I'm thinking too much, I also have a feeling that I can't speak."

Both of them said that they had a feeling that they couldn't put it into words, and Lu Shanmin didn't dare to be careless. Lu Shanmin first called Chen Jing, who loves calligraphy and painting, Chen Jing said that he knew Ying Tian, an impressionist painter, or a professor at Jiangzhou Art Institute, and was well-known in Jiangzhou, saying that he was not the same as other painters, and he was meticulously dressed like a white-collar worker in a perennial suit and leather shoes, and insiders also gave him the nickname of 'office building', which means that he was dressed like those office workers in the office building.

After that, he called Wu Xiaoning, who was in charge of science, education, culture and health, and he knew as long as there were slightly famous artists in Jiangzhou. Wu Xiaoning's statement is similar to Chen Jing's, saying that he has been teaching at the Jiangzhou Art Academy for more than ten years and is a leading figure among the Jiangzhou Impressionist painters.

After making two phone calls, the three of them were completely relieved. It seems that this is indeed an artist who does not look very much like an artist.

.........

.........

The next day, an unexpected news came that shocked Lu Shanmin's heart. After the Xue family buried Xue Liang, they did not stop at all, and announced a high-profile investment of 80 billion yuan in Jingui Group, becoming the third largest shareholder of Jingui Group.

Previously, Lu Shanmin asked an actuary to calculate according to the financial statements released by the Xue Group, and the Xue family can currently withdraw up to 60 billion yuan, and this time the Xue family is planning to work hard.

The three of them sat in the living room, and this time even Hai Dongqing's face showed obvious worry.

Such a situation was expected in advance, but there was no preparation other than mental preparation, and it was impossible to prepare for it. This is a conspiracy, burning the red RMB, the comparison is whose money is more, how to prepare.

As soon as the news came out, the shares of the listed companies of Haohan Group and Haitian Group fell all the way, falling for three consecutive days.

In the previous price war, the Zeng family and the Haijia family successively sold a lot of fixed assets, almost selling out the marginal industries and commercial entities. The remaining core industries can no longer be sold, not to mention whether it is enough after selling, if the core industries are sold, even if they win, in fact, the three enterprises will exist in name only.

Sheng Tian and Hai Dongqing neither spoke, the plan to force the Xue family onto this road was set by Lu Shanmin, and both of them looked at him in a daze.

Lu Shanmin smiled bitterly, he was just walking according to Zuoqiu's plan, where was there any way to deal with it.

Lu Shanmin reasoned his thoughts and said: "We can't control the affairs over there in the East China Sea."

Sheng Tian's brows furrowed, "Can't you ask what kind of medicine is sold in your Great Army Master's gourd?"

Lu Shanmin shook his head, "He has already said what he wants to say, but it is not impossible to guess that things have developed to this point." The Xue family has transferred a large amount of funds to the East China Sea, and Jiangzhou is our opportunity. In the past two years, we have successfully muddied the water in Jiangzhou, Aunt Hong has relied on Chenguang Consulting to attract a lot of Jiangzhou chaebols, and now Chen Jingxin has established more and more members of the Xinzhou Chamber of Commerce, and after Liu Yunshen was successfully pulled into the water, the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce has fallen to our side. Although Xia Zhiqiu is not sure whether he will make a move, he can also fight."

Hai Dongqing frowned slightly, "We ended his nest in Jiangzhou, and they ended our nest in the East China Sea." What else are we going to do against the Nalan family, and there is still no clue about it."

Lu Shanmin frowned, thought for a moment, and said: "It can only be like this now, the East China Sea fights the East China Sea, Jiangzhou fights Jiangzhou, and the rest depends on the destiny of heaven."
