Chapter Eighty-Eight: Li Fanzhi
"God, why don't we change our homes. ”
Lu Manwen watched Wu Jiaxing and his group run out, knowing that they would definitely not give up, she was not afraid of this group, but she didn't want to be disturbed when she and Ji Tianci were eating.
If it was before, Ji Tianci would definitely leave, and he wouldn't even fight with Wu Jiaxing.
But now, Ji Tianci enjoys the hatred of others for him, and any intense emotions make him feel comfortable. Especially his earth soul, it was like eating the delicious food of the world.
"No, the dishes aren't finished yet. ”
Ji Tianci said lightly, and continued to talk about other topics.
The two discussed oil paintings, Ji Tianci thought that Scarlett had been sealed because of an oil painting, he still felt incredible, and thought that Lu Manwen was from the Art Academy, so he asked Lu Manwen.
"Do you have any research on oil painting?"
Lu Manwen was curious for a while, and didn't understand why Ji Tianci suddenly talked about oil painting.
"Uh...... I studied industrial design and had only a simple understanding of oil painting, but my father loved to collect art and he had a lot of oil paintings there. Why? You also like oil painting?"
"I don't like it, I'm just interested, do you know the person Bronsy?"
Lu Manwen was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Of course you know, among the painters who are still alive now, the value of his works ranks among the top three in the world, do you like his paintings?"
"I've only seen his paintings online, and I don't like them, I just want to see the original paintings. ”
Lu Manwen pondered for a while, and suddenly seemed to think of something: "I don't have a painting of Brunce at home, but I know that there may be someone in Wuyang City who will." ”
"Who?" asked Ji Tianci curiously.
"You know Brancy, you should also know Li Fanzhi, right?"
Ji Tianci shook his head: "I don't know." ”
"Huh, you don't know Li Fanzhi?"
"Who is he?"
"Among the contemporary oil painters, Brunces and Li Fanzhi are the most famous, one in the West and the other in the East, and they are also best friends. Blancis became famous for painting the "Last Days" series, and Li Fanzhi became famous for painting the "Masquerade" series. Li Fanzhi is a native of Wuyang, my father once bought his paintings, and he also had some friendships, and he should also have Brancys's paintings in his house. ”
Ji Tianci recited the name of "Li Fanzhi", and then stopped thinking about it: "Forget it, I just asked casually, and I have the opportunity to see the two of them's art exhibitions again." ”
"That's just a matter of fate, the two of them hold art exhibitions casually, sometimes they can't hold one exhibition in a few years, sometimes they hold several exhibitions a year. However, their works often appear at art auctions in Huanggang, and last time one of Li Fanzhi's paintings was sold for a sky-high price of 170 million yuan, which was bought by a wealthy Middle Eastern man. ”
Ji Tianci was also a little surprised when he heard 170 million, which made him want to see more and more what these famous paintings looked like, he had only seen photos of famous paintings on the Internet before, but he also found that photos and real paintings were completely different things.
Lu Manwen saw that Ji Tianci was silent, and she hurriedly said, "If you are interested, we will go to the auction together next time." ”
Ji Tianci is indeed interested in this art auction, he likes to look up some antique photos on the Internet, I don't know why, some antiques he actually has a sense of "familiarity". He also wanted to go to the auction and look at the antiques, even if he couldn't see Brucis's paintings.
"By the way, anyone can participate in this auction?" Ji Tianci asked Lu Manwen.
"Of course not, the Huanggang Auction is a membership system, only members can enter, different levels of members sit in different positions at the venue each time, the lowest level of members can not bring others in, only senior members can bring relatives or assistants in. ”
Ji Tianci frowned: "It's so troublesome, how can I become a member?"
"To put it simply, it is necessary to have identity and status to become a member, if you want to participate in the highest level of auction in Huanggang, you also need to verify the capital, this auction is not publicized, because there are a lot of 'black goods' in it, and everyone who participates in the auction needs to pay a deposit of 100 million first. ”
"So much deposit?" Ji Tianci smiled bitterly, he knew that there would be a threshold for the auction, but he didn't expect the threshold to be so high.
Lu Manwen smiled proudly at this time: "I can take you in, my father is a senior member, and he has his own private room at every auction, and he can bring up to ten people in." Even if my father doesn't attend the auction, I can participate in his name after he authorizes me, and I also have his rights, after all, many senior members are reluctant to show up, they arrange for others to participate in the auction for them. ”
Ji Tianci smiled lightly: "Then I'll follow you next time." ”
"Hmm!" Lu Manwen was sweet in her heart, she also liked to go to Huanggang, and she was excited to go with her lover.
Huanggang is a city in the southeast of Jiuyou, surrounded by the sea, with a pleasant climate, developed foreign economic and trade, and is also the fashion capital of Jiuyou.
Lu Manwen was about to inquire when the next Huanggang auction would be, when she suddenly saw a dense group of people walking towards the main entrance of the hotel from the window next to her, and the first person was the fat man.
Lu Manwen was a little worried this time, because she saw that several of the people in the group were carrying the kind of long knives used to cut cakes.
Ji Tianci felt Lu Manwen's worry, he didn't wait for Lu Manwen to speak, and said softly: "It doesn't matter, they can't hurt me." ”
***
As soon as Wu Jiaxing walked to the door of the hotel, a security guard walked up.
However, the security guard didn't want to stop this group of people, he walked up to Wu Jiaxing and whispered: "That guy hasn't left yet, you'd better wait for him to go out before you do it, now there are many customers in the store, maybe someone will call the police, and the police will be in trouble when they come." ”
Wu Jiaxing thought for a while and said, "Lao Tzu is afraid that he will call the police first." ”
The security guard looked back at Ji Tianci and Lu Manwen, and after a long time, he turned his head again and said, "Brother Wu, you see that they are doing the same as people who are fine, I don't know if they are bold or really not afraid, why don't you check their bottom first?"
When Wu Jiaxing heard this, he suddenly became angry again: "Let's check a fart, the person with a face on Longquan Street doesn't know Lao Tzu? Even if they are the 'strong dragons' outside, they shouldn't press Lao Tzu, the 'head snake' of the land." ”
Wu Jiaxing became more and more angry, his wrist still felt pain, this pain was a shame for him, he felt that he had lost face today, and he was losing face in front of a peerless beauty.
Thinking of Ji Tianci, the anger in his heart was about to reach his throat, but when he thought of Lu Manwen, he was itching. He secretly thought in his heart: "Even if it is a crime today, Lao Tzu will get that little girl in his hands, and it is a big deal to lock him up for a few days, and then find a way to get himself out." For such a beauty, everything is worth it. ”
After Wu Jiaxing made up his mind, he arranged for a group of brothers at the door to hide in the car, and he walked towards Ji Tianci alone.
Walking quickly in front of Ji Tianci, he said in a low tone: "Boy, do you dare to go out and fight with Lao Tzu, don't be cowardly if you are a man." ”
Ji Tianci put down his chopsticks and turned his head to look at Wu Jiaxing "suspiciously": "Your wrist doesn't hurt anymore?"
"You!" the Wu family was speechless in anger, and he took a step back because he saw Ji Tianci staring at his wrist again.
"Lao Tzu is waiting for you outside, don't run if you're a gentleman. ”
Wu Jiaxing felt a little weak in his heart, he left a cruel word and quickly ran out again.
