Chapter 170: Tibetan Shih Tzu
Sister Mei walked up to the director, pointed to Xi Shi's figure and said, "Director, I brought it to you, she is Shi Chenyu." ”
The director's eyes were still staring at Xi Shi at this time, even if Sister Mei walked up to him and spoke, she didn't take her eyes off, "Sister Mei, why is this person so different from what you see in the photo." ”
"Good...... It seems to be a facelift. Sister Mei said.
"Then this plastic surgeon can be regarded as a miracle, comparable to heaven. The director exclaimed, and suddenly he seemed to think of something, and said to the assistant director next to him: "Quickly find the screenwriter, I want to add a few more scenes to this maid's role." ”
The assistant director immediately understood the director's meaning, nodded and said, "Hey, I'll go now!"
Originally, Shi Chenyu's role only had the first few scenes, and there were few appearances, and he would soon be sent to receive a boxed lunch by the Jinyi guard arranged by the plot, but the director knew that Shi Chenyu's face alone could attract a lot of attention to his movie. He had only seen one of Shi Chenyu's stunning colors before, and that was Luo Xi, the daughter of the Luo family.
Li Zilu saw that the person who played her personal maid was actually a stunning beauty, and her face suddenly became ugly, although she was also beautiful, but standing next to Xi Shi would only become extremely bleak, and when this movie came out on the street, she would only be said everywhere, 'Look, the maids are hundreds of times more beautiful than the heroine'.
"Sister Qin, didn't you say that the girl who played the role of the maid was a very ordinary-looking girl, this ...... What the hell is going on!" Li Zilu's tone was full of reproach.
"This ...... This ......" Qi Qin was already speechless, and she couldn't understand why the crew of such a beautiful woman would arrange to play a little girl?
The 68th floor of the headquarters of Luohua Group.
Xiao Ji, the secretary of the chairman, came out of the elevator in a hurry, sweating profusely, and there was already another female secretary of the chairman waiting for him at the elevator door.
The two did not stop and rushed directly to the chairman's office.
"The chairman seemed very displeased when he heard that you didn't take that picture, how are you going to explain it to him. Yang Xi, the female secretary of the chairman, said as she walked.
"I'll explain to him that the price of the painting has reached a price that far exceeds the market's appraisal, and I really don't dare to ask for it anymore. Xiao Ji said, there was sweat on his forehead all the time.
"But didn't the chairman already tell me to take a picture of this painting? Yang Xi said.
Xiao Ji stopped and said, "Do you know how much the final price of this painting is?"
"How much?" Yang Xi asked.
"The starting price is 500 million, and the final transaction price is-" He raised three fingers, "Three billion!"
"Three...... Three billion?" Hearing this astronomical number, Yang Xi was immediately stunned.
"When you talk about this price, how dare I ask for it again, this is not a number of millions, tens of millions, this is three billion, I can't make it in ten lifetimes. Xiao Ji said.
When he arrived at the door of the chairman's office, he was a little panicked, but finally pushed the door and walked in.
In the magnificent office, Luo Yucheng was the only one who did not sit at the desk, but made tea on the tea table next to him.
The first leader of the Lohua Group, who looked to be in his fifties, was of medium stature, and sat calmly at the tea table in a long white shirt.
"Luo ...... Mr. Luo. Xiao Ji said in fear, "I didn't take a picture of that painting." ”
"I already know that. In the end, it was Mr. Wang who auctioned this "Tibetan Xi Shi" at a high price of 3 billion, and everyone in my circle already knows about it. ”
Luo Yucheng said as he picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.
"Mr. Luo, I'm sorry I couldn't do what you trusted. Xiao Ji immediately bent down and apologized.
"Hey, I'm disappointed that I can't shoot this painting, but if you think about it, I can't blame you, you really can't make up your mind about three billion things. It's just that I didn't think it through. Luo Yucheng sighed and said, his expression couldn't hide his disappointment.
"Real...... I'm really sorry. Xiao Ji lowered his head again.
"Okay, you're tired from a long day of traveling, come, both of you can taste the big red robe I just got my hands on. Luo Yucheng asked with his right hand.
The two secretaries hurriedly walked into the table, and one of them took a cup of tea and savored it.
After drinking the tea, Yang Xi finally couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Luo, is this "Tibetan Xi Shi" worth three billion, and what kind of character is Zhang Huaixian, the author of this painting? ”
Luo Yucheng filled the teacup in front of him again, and then said slowly: "This Zhang Huaixian has been a rather mysterious figure since the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and no one has been able to unveil his mystery for more than a thousand years. There is no record of him in the official history, but there are several wild histories and the testaments of some ancient celebrities who mention him a few times. ”
Luo Yucheng stopped at this point, then picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then continued: "Several painters from different eras have commented on him, and they all say so, saying that he 'is the pinnacle of his paintings, there is no one before him, and there is no one after him!'"
"This Huaixian had a period of obsession with painting portraits of Xi Shi, but he tore a piece every time he finished painting, and there was such an interesting story recorded in the history of Benye, that is, some idlers would go to the Huaixian Mansion every morning to turn over the garbage that was thrown away, turn over the fragments of the painting and take them home to glue them together, and they could be sold for a high price on the road, which shows that this Huaixian's brush power is really the peak of that era. ”
This "Tibetan Xi Shi" is the only portrait of Xi Shi that he left behind that was not torn off by him. ”
Luo Yucheng said that he had actually heard of Zhang Huaixian's name from friends in the Fosa Club a long time ago, so he spent a lot of time collecting this information about him.
Then why didn't Zhang Huaixian tear up the painting "Tibetan Xi Shi", is it because this is the most satisfying portrait of Xi Shi he painted? Yang Xi asked.
Luo Yucheng shook his head and said: "No, no, that's because of this "Tibetan Xi Shi", he only painted the valley scenery and the right half of a woman's body, and the left half and her appearance were not painted, so this is not a complete portrait of Xi Shi, this painting originally had no name, and later generations named it "Tibetan Xi Shi". ”
"Since you can't see your face, how do you know that he is painting Xi Shi?" Yang Xi continued.
"I don't know, anyway, the reason why this painting can be sold for a high price of three billion today is that I think it has something to do with the mystery of the painting itself, in addition to the fact that the painting itself is the pinnacle of a certain era. ”
After Luo Yucheng finished speaking, he asked for tea again, "Come, you guys have another drink." ”
The two then picked up the teacup again and drank tea, but Yang Xi's mind at this time was all on the "Tibetan Xi Shi", she really wanted to see what this ancient painting worth three billion looked like.
