Chapter 49: Speculators

Prepare contracts, sign them, transfer money.

Half an hour later, Tom took a group of people and left.

When he returned to the convoy, before he got back into the car, the window slid down, revealing Chu Nan's youthful face, and he scolded: "The surname is Tang, are you crazy." You agreed to all such conditions, isn't this giving him money for nothing?"

Tom didn't speak, but got into the carriage first, then lit himself a cigar, took a puff, and the smoke passed through his mouth, and he spit out immediately.

A faint mist, permeating the spacious carriage, also has a special aroma.

This attitude of ignoring made Chu Nanfeng even more angry.

However, before he could reprimand, the young man next to him spoke first: "Mr. Tang, for this matter, we believe that you must have your own considerations, can you tell us if it is convenient?"

"Ah Qing, you still have eyesight. ”

Tom smiled.

You must know that he and the people behind Chu Nanfeng are in a cooperative relationship.

Even if it can't talk about equal cooperation, it doesn't mean that Chu Nanfeng is qualified to show him his face. He is willing to help with this, which is already very face-saving.

The other party doesn't respect himself, so why should he be pleasant?

Fortunately, there were young people who played the round, and Tom also took the opportunity to step down, he smiled proudly and said meaningfully: "Actually, ......"

"It's a trap. ”

In the studio, Bai Ye spoke.

The account suddenly increased by one million, Cao Xiang must have been surprised, and hurriedly rushed over to ask about the specific situation.

Bai Ye said the experience, and then sneered and concluded: "This is a trap, and I don't know who is so deliberately trying to deal with me." ”

“…… You know it's a trap, and you're jumping into it?"

Cao Xiang felt a headache, and he didn't know whether it should be accusation or abuse.

"Don't worry, I know it. ”

Bai Ye Yi was bold and smiled confidently: "The problem now is that I want to find out who instructed that gringo to calculate me. Cao Xiang, can you find out about this?"

"I'm afraid it's not going to be easy. ”

Cao Xiang frowned and said, "I have a little impression of the foreigner you said. The surname is soup, brown curls, from Sicily...... Not surprisingly, it should be Tom, the owner of Hangyang Foreign Trade, who is also quite famous among the expatriates in China Shipping. ”

"He said he had a good name, and that's true. Because he is very enthusiastic, participates in various activities that help to increase his fame, and has been present in many social occasions. But I've also heard that this man is not particular about his work, and his reputation is not very good. ”

All in all, this person is also a member of the celebrity in the middle of the sea. Word-of-mouth may not be good, but there is still energy, and if there is someone behind him, it will definitely be a big deal. ”

Cao Xiang said softly: "No matter how bad it is, it is comparable to him." ”

"Celebrities. ”

Bai Ye's eyes flashed, and he advised: "Then you can do what you can." ”

Whoever has ill intentions towards him, as long as he does not step on him, will sooner or later surface and stand in front of him.

"Good. ”

Cao Xiang nodded, also a little worried: "Bai Ye, you have finally improved now, don't swell, it's not good to get carried away." ”

"Ann, Ann. ”

Bai Ye waved his hand, not caring at all, "You go investigate first, I'll start working." Ten days to make a statue, it's really a bit nervous, I can't delay......"

"Good. ”

Cao Xiang was helpless and left with a little worry.

To be honest, he was really afraid that the good situation would be ruined, but Bai Ye had already signed the contract, and even the money had been accepted, and it was impossible to change and break the contract. Now I can only hope that Bai Ye's self-confidence is not arrogant, but confident.

I hope all the best......

Two days later, Cao Xiang found that his prayer had not been promised by God.

What he feared most happened anyway.

When Bai Ye was still busy in the studio, Cao Xiang also noticed that someone on the Internet had exposed the matter of Tom's custom-made statue.

For a moment, the reaction of the crowd was different.

Some people disdain, some people ignore it indifferently, and some people are curious and concerned.

However, some people feel that there is no need to discuss this matter. After all, Bai Ye has changed his career to become a sculptor, and he is still a very famous sculptor. So isn't it normal for him to take orders to work?

Hearing this, many people felt that it made sense. They feel that they seem to have entered a misunderstanding, as if everything Bai Ye is doing is wrong, which is very unreasonable.

Some people reflect on themselves and are about to end the topic.

Caught off guard, a well-known art critic spoke out. This critic, although his reputation and prestige are not as good as Gao Bo, but he also has a certain amount of attention in the industry.

After all, you can't make a forest alone, and the circle of critics, in addition to Gao Bo, a god at the top of the pyramid, must also have some backbones to support the development of the entire industry.

Vocal critics are in the middle of the pack.

When commenting, there are certain opinions, but they are not in-depth enough to penetrate into it, so they are not famous.

But how to say it, dry food is also food, and there is a shortage of books...... No, it should be a time of famine, and dry food can also withstand hunger.

So this critic's article, there are still people who read it.

After his comment, many people received the prompt and went to watch.

After reading the article, everyone was a little surprised. Because of this critic, the theme of his article turned out to be a review of Bai Ye, titled "A Brief Discussion on Bai Ye - A "Genius" Speculator".

As for the content of the article, it is even more closely related to the topic.

"Recently, many people have asked me to comment on Shiraba, and at first, I was reluctant...... I can't just comment on whoever I ask me to comment. ”

"I also want to find out first, who Bai Ye is, what kind of deeds he has had, and whether there is a need to evaluate......

"After understanding, I have to admit that the masses really have a vision, let me comment on such a 'smart' 'genius'...... Artist. ”

"Clever and genius, I use quotation marks. This means...... That's right, it's a special meaning. ”

"Of course, this is not a disparagement, but an exclamation. ”

"I admire Shiraba, really...... After all, in the highly competitive art industry, it is really not easy for young people to get ahead. ”

"As for Bai Ye, he seized every opportunity to smoothly squeeze himself out of the public eye, whether it is reputation or infamy, it can be regarded as a success, a successful speculation. ”

"Why is he a speculator?"

"You must know that Bai Ye was admitted to the Zhonghai Academy of Fine Arts, and he first studied sculpture at the beginning. Then I only studied for a year, and then I transferred to the oil painting academy, where I studied abstract oil painting. ”

"From here, it can be seen that Shiraba is a natural speculator. ”

"He's smart and knows how to become famous. I found that learning sculpture requires the accumulation of time, and without ten or eight years, I am afraid that there is no way to gain a foothold in the industry. ”

"In contrast, it is much easier to learn abstract oil painting. I'm not trying to discredit abstract paintings, but I want to expose a fact. In today's art world, there is no universal standard for the definition of abstract painting, which gives some people an opportunity to take advantage of. ”

"I think everyone knows what happened next. Bai Ye, who switched to abstract oil painting, hugged his thighs and walked on the bright road in a few months. ”

"This is typical speculation. ”

After that, due to the fall of the gold lord, Bai Ye was silent for more than half a year. But how could someone as smart as him be willing to fail. ”

No, during his hibernation, he learned from the pain and turned back to the sculpture industry. The most admirable thing is that he still plays with abstract sculptures that ordinary people can't understand. ”

This is where he is the smartest, because the aesthetics of abstract sculpture and how to comment on it are not at all in the hands of ordinary people. ”

"As long as an 'authoritative' 'expert' stands up and gives him a high evaluation, how can ordinary people refute it except 'convinced'?"

"That's why I said that Bai Ye is really a genius, a genius speculator, and through a series of means, he has successfully packaged himself as a genius artist. ”

"This is everyone's 'role model', and it is worth learning from!"
