Chapter 125: Handle

On the square outside the museum building, before the start of the press conference, there was actually a ribbon-cutting launching ceremony, which was to unveil the retrospective exhibition of the previous award-winning works of the "Jincheng Cup" Youth Ceramic Design Competition.

Wei Xiaoqiao was arranged to stand next to the curator, and he also stuffed a pair of scissors, he couldn't have stage fright at this time, Wei Xiaoqiao just seemed to follow everyone decently and cut off the red silk in front of him.

Handing the scissors back to the hostess behind him, Wei Xiaoqiao turned his head and saw Lin Wushuang sitting in the VIP seat below, at this time, people were smiling and clapping their hands while looking at Wei Xiaoqiao.

At the door of the VIP room just now, the head of the regiment had already introduced the two of them.

Lin Wushuang, a well-known young painter and sculpture artist in S country, is also the granddaughter of Wu Qingshan, a great collector of Zhang Daqian's famous paintings donated to the Jincheng Museum.

When she heard the name Wu Qingshan, Wei Xiaoqiao was taken aback, it seems that she is really lonely and unheard, and she is stunned until now I can't figure out who Wu Qingshan is.

Now that everyone has seen it, Wei Xiaoqiao nodded towards Lin Wushuang, and Lin Wushuang also bowed slightly, without any mustard at all.

At the end of the press conference, Lin Wushuang was invited to the stage and officially handed over the donated famous paintings to the Jincheng Museum.

The long guns and short cannons of the on-site media were aimed at Lin Wushuang in an instant, it seems that the charm of the big beauty is irresistible, Wei Xiaoqiao couldn't help but want to laugh, if he had known that he would come here, Director Yu probably wouldn't have reluctantly asked her Wei Xiaoqiao to be a "vase".

Curator Yu is very good at making the best use of things, so he simply handed over the microphone himself and asked Lin Wushuang to say a few words.

All of a sudden, all eyes fell on Lin Wushuang.

"Today, I am very honored to have the opportunity to donate a copy of a Dunhuang mural by Mr. Zhang Daqian, whom he loved all his life, to the Jincheng Museum on behalf of my maternal grandfather, Mr. Wu Qingshan, to express my appreciation for Jincheng, a growing city.

"This little girl has a future!" An old gentleman sitting next to Wei Xiaoqiao couldn't help but express his appreciation.

On the stage, Lin Wushuang turned his head elegantly and looked at Director Yu with a smile: "Director Yu, I have a reluctant request, I hope to take this opportunity to sign up for this Youth Ceramic Design Competition, I have studied sculpture for more than ten years, and I have also studied under a porcelain master, although the work may make everyone laugh, but such a good learning opportunity, I really don't want to miss it!"

Director Yu smiled happily and said to the audience: "We warmly welcome all young people who are willing to participate in this competition, Chinese traditional culture is to be passed on from generation to generation of young people, and I hereby announce that Miss Lin Wushuang is our No. 001 contestant!"

As soon as the press conference here ended, Lin Wushuang was surrounded by the media before he had time to get off the rostrum.

Wei Xiaoqiao followed several experts, and was invited by Director Yu to his office to chat for a while, and when he came out again, he met Xiao Wu, so Wei Xiaoqiao and Xiao Wu went to visit this retrospective exhibition again.

However, as soon as the two of them entered the exhibition hall, they found that the venue that should have been quiet was really lively at this time.

There was a flash flashing non-stop, and a person with a camera shouted at the top of his voice: "Wushuang, look at me here, look up slightly, smile!"

Xiao Wu looked over there, shook his head, and muttered, "This is using the museum as a studio." ”

Wei Xiaoqiao also saw clearly at this time, several people surrounded Lin Wushuang to take pictures there, Lin Wushuang changed into a pink short skirt, even his hairstyle changed, and he made all kinds of charming poses, quite like a professional model.

"What's going on?" Xiao Wu turned his head and asked a nearby museum staff member.

Miss Lin said that the media she brought wanted to shoot the material, and the head of the group agreed, thinking that it was just right to promote our competition. The staff whispered.

Xiao Wu muttered: "Such a shooting method is too unserious!"

The staff member first looked at Lin Wushuang, and then approached Xiao Wu and said: "I checked on the Internet, this Miss Lin is an Internet celebrity, she is an intellectual beauty in country S, she often appears on the cover of magazines, and also participates in variety shows, and flies abroad to watch shows from time to time, and the social accounts she operates are millions of fans, but I haven't seen a few works, but I have only heard that she has won a lot of awards." ”

Xiao Wu laughed directly: "It's really a genius, if it were me, I would have been tired to death!"

"By the way, people came in the car of the consulate of country S today, and after hearing that Lin Wushuang is a famous family, her family is powerful and powerful in country S, so ah, people who win at the starting line are not tired of doing anything!" said the staff member, shrugging his shoulders.

Wei Xiaoqiao had been listening to the side, and he also laughed at this time.

Fortunately, after filming there for a while, he stopped, as if he wanted to change the "studio".

Seeing the people walking out, Xiao Wu immediately reminded his colleagues: "Notify the outside, don't let them shoot randomly, in case the flash hurts the cultural relics, we don't even have a place to cry." ”

When the staff member heard this, he immediately nodded and hurriedly followed.

At this time, the exhibition hall was quiet, and Wei Xiaoqiao happened to be with Xiao Wu, carefully appreciating the award-winning works of the year.

In the most conspicuous position in the middle of the exhibition hall, a porcelain sculpture of a figure is placed.

An old couple sat on two bamboo chairs, the old gentleman was on crutches, was turning his head to look at his wife, their hands were clasped together, as if they were chatting about something, at the feet of the two, a child with pigtails was squatting on the ground to play, surrounded by flowers and plants, a breath of life.

"Every time I see it, I can't help but be moved, and I deserve to win the gold award!" Xiao Wu sighed.

"I'm so talented," Wei Xiaoqiao joked casually: "I admire myself!"

Xiao Wu turned his head to look at Wei Xiaoqiao, smiled and pushed her with his hand.

This "Gripper" is the champion work of Wei Xiaoqiao who participated in the design competition that year, and then won the Japanese competition and won the Supreme Gold Award, and the prototype of the character is Wei Xiaoqiao's grandfather and grandmother, this scene has always existed in Wei Xiaoqiao's childhood memories, the old couple of the Wei family are in love with each other, and they grow old together, giving Wei Xiaoqiao the initial imagination of love.

Xiao Wu recalled at this time: "I still remember, when I just entered the Jincheng Museum, just in time for the 6th Design Competition, a little girl who looked like she was in her 10s came to the office, took out a box from her backpack and put it in front of me, saying that she was here to send entries, I wondered at that time, whose child is this, but my colleague told me that the last champion is here!"

"Okay, I'm almost 20 years old by then!" Wei Xiaoqiao laughed.

Xiao Wu patted Wei Xiaoqiao's shoulder: "It's good to be young, there is still unlimited potential to tap, by the way, what are your recent works?"

"You also know, there are a lot of things going on in my family, and my heart has never been settled," Wei Xiaoqiao said this, and couldn't help but sigh: "I also boasted to my father about going to Haikou, and when he came back from treatment, I made him an ice crack celadon teapot, but there is no shadow until now, so ah, I really can't brag casually!"

"Then hurry up, as far as I know, many people are now researching ice crack restoration technology, if you really have this idea, go back and talk to the curator, and let him help you fight for the project, and form a team, it is much more efficient than you fighting alone!" Xiao Wu proposed.

"Is it really possible?" Wei Xiaoqiao's eyes lit up.

"I've remembered this, so I'll go back and ask your colleagues in the porcelain group to see if there's anyone who wants to go with you. Xiao Wu said with a smile.

didn't stay in the museum for long, Wei Xiaoqiao said goodbye to Xiao Wu, and was going to find a place to take a taxi and go back to Porcelain Street.

When she was about to walk to the gate of the museum, several cars rushed out of her, Wei Xiaoqiao didn't care, just gave way to the side.

The car drove out for a while, suddenly stopped, and Wei Xiaoqiao, who was walking on the road, immediately glanced at it and continued to move forward.

"Miss Wei, is it inconvenient to talk about it?" In the second car, Lin Wushuang, who was sitting in the back seat, asked with a smile through the open window.

Under a leafy camphor tree, Lin Wushuang and Wei Xiaoqiao stood face to face.

Lin Wushuang opened his mouth first, and directly praised Wei Xiaoqiao: "Miss Wei is young and promising, I just noticed that in the retrospective, your works are placed in the most eye-catching place. ”

Wei Xiaoqiao could guess how much Lin Wushuang was about to say something to himself, but people were quite polite now, and Wei Xiaoqiao naturally replied with a smile: "It's just a small skill of carving insects!"

"I heard that Miss Wei's family history?" Lin Wushuang asked curiously.

"Don't dare to be, ancestral craftsmanship, used to support the family. Wei Xiaoqiao said modestly, and could feel that Lin Wushuang's eyes were staring at him, with a hint of inquiry.

Lin Wushuang nodded, and asked again, "You also help people identify antiques?"

Wei Xiaoqiao smiled, fortunately, the other party quickly got to the point, it was nothing more than that lawsuit.

"I heard that Miss Wei is the judge of this competition, because I am also going to participate, so please take care of me then!" Lin Wushuang suddenly changed the topic again.

"I am very much looking forward to seeing Miss Lin's work, however, according to the rules of the competition, the judges will vote on all the works blindly, and I hope that Miss Lin will be shortlisted in the end. Wei Xiaoqiao cautiously replied that if Lin Wushuang really wanted to compete, she had to be careful if she said anything at this time.

"Miss Wei, are you ...... Very interesting. Lin Wushuang looked at Wei Xiaoqiao with a smile.

Wei Xiaoqiao blinked, not understanding what Lin Wushuang meant.

"Zhiqing has mentioned Miss Wei more than once. Lin Wushuang lowered his head and stroked the short skirt on his body.

Wei Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The two of you know each other, and this world is very small. ”

"Our parents had some friendships, and we were friends who grew up together. Lin Wushuang said, looking towards the museum: "Zhiqing seems to have some holiday with Wei Xiaoqiao?"

Wei Xiaoqiao exhaled and listened patiently.

"During this time, does Miss Wei feel very troubled?" Lin Wushuang looked at Wei Xiaoqiao.

"No, since the problem that can be solved at the legal level, leave it to the law, there is nothing to worry about. Wei Xiaoqiao replied bluntly.

"My grandfather got this piece at Christie's auction back then, and aside from its value, it was one of his lifelong favorites, and he lent it to the exhibition many times, and even planned to donate it to support charity this time. Lin Wushuang's smile finally became a little cold.

Wei Xiaoqiao: "......"

Lin Wushuang looked at Wei Xiaoqiao: "This Yuan Qinghua, people in the industry who have seen him have confirmed that it is genuine, so my grandfather firmly believes in it, originally he didn't need to care about Miss Wei's words, but no one thought that this matter was getting more and more outrageous, beyond the bottom line that my grandfather could bear." ”

Wei Xiaoqiao finally opened his mouth: "I regret hearing you say this, the matter has come to this point, why don't you calm down and wait for the scientific method to come to find the truth?"

"After the accident, Zhiqing kept apologizing to me, she felt that it was because of her personal reasons that it affected us. When Lin Wushuang said this, he looked at Wei Xiaoqiao with a smile.

Wei Xiaoqiao simply asked, "Personal reasons?"
