For a fledgling Chinese painter with no sceleration, this is a very conscientious price in the acquisition of a multinational gallery.

You know, the purchase price of those custom-made paintings from international B-level galleries with black hearts in Korea is only a pitiful flat price of $50-100 for a single work.

Although Gu Zheng is a young painter of the new generation promoted by Professor Yang, his paintings are indeed sold at two prices at home and abroad.

For about 18,000 yuan, it would have been impossible to buy a painting by an unknown young painter at such a price in the past if it were not for the value of his historical research.

But I can't stand it, there is something called feelings.

The old man named Ito, who was the first to speak, looked at the shoreline, on the Japanese-style sailboat, in the midst of fire and sea, standing a Japanese samurai covered in blood, holding back the tears that continued to flow, and shouted a price that was a little crazy in the eyes of others: "I double, 600,000 yen." ”

"My ancestors, worth the price. ”

His apprentice wanted to stop talking, his fine paintings couldn't sell for such a price, teacher, don't you see the figure of a samurai, you think it's the general of the former family.

But the feelings that others don't understand are reflected in the hearts of his old rivals.

The Nth descendant of the Tachibana family on the side shouted as if he couldn't see him: "700,000 yen!"

Tachibana Ryuichi seemed to be the card owner of the highest psychological price for everyone in the venue, and continued with a little pride: "If Ito's old friend can afford a higher price, I am naturally willing to give it up for the sake of years of friendship." ”

After years of buying and selling paintings, where do you not know where the bottom line of collecting and selling is?

Although there is a bit of blood in my chest, in business, no one is rich and difficult to buy the wronged boss I am happy to be.

Based on the highest price of his own collection, this amount is already sky-high.

In the end, the merchant blood of the calm Japanese people still prevailed, and the ultimate purpose of collecting was to make oneself physically and mentally comfortable, rather than taking out a painting and hearing that it had depreciated again.

Therefore, the old man of the Ito family hesitated under the persecution of Tachibana Longyi, but Gu Zheng was quite satisfied.

As long as he wants to paint, it will take him a week or two to paint, and he will not even delay his work, so he can come to such a painting.

This kind of price that catches up with the well-known young painters in China, as the debut of his own works, is quite perfect in Gu Zheng's opinion.

But at this moment, the assistant who was following Ito on the side, the young man who had been inquiring about Gu Zheng's poor limited information, stared at his mobile phone and whispered in the ear of the old man Ito with a surprised face.

After listening to the assistant's words, Gu Zheng obviously felt that Mr. Ito, who was sitting opposite, glanced at him as if he was looking at some kind of monster, but in front of everyone, he slowly raised one of his hands: "Since Mr. Tachibana is so humble, as a representative of the Ito family, I can't help but thank Mr. Tachibana for his concession." ”

"In order to express my admiration for Chinese painters and to express the long-lasting friendship between the Chinese and Japanese painting and calligraphy circles, I decided to pay a high price of 800,000 yen for this painting. ”

"Chinese are very fond of the number eight, I don't know what His Excellency Gu Zheng thinks?"

It's an extra 100,000 yen, and if you don't agree, I'll be stupid.

Gu Zheng hurriedly replied: "Thank you, I am also happy that the contemptible paintings can be loved by my peers in the Japanese Kingdom." ”

"I have no objection to Mr. Ito's price. ”

Ito Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and the process of sending the rest of the paintings to the Wa Kingdom was handled privately by the representatives of the two sides. ”

On the contrary, Tachibana Ryuichi, who was caught off guard by Ito's unreasonable cards, was out of state at this recommendation meeting.

Taking advantage of the successful conclusion of the meeting an hour later, the people of the two sides dispersed one after another.

Tachibana blocked the way of Ito's 'old friend'.

Ito, who was filling out the purchase agreement for some paintings in the backyard, was not surprised at all by the appearance of Tachibana Ryuichi, and he saw that the Chinese delegation had already walked away in the direction of the bus outside the manor, and the contradiction between him and Tachibana could be openly and brightly placed on the table.

So after he finished signing, he straightened up and asked imposingly, "What's the matter?"

"Let me ask you, why did you buy the work of that young painter named Gu Zheng at such a high price?"

"Just to be angry with me?"

"No, 100,000 yen is not a lot of money, but Ito-kun is not such a naïve person. ”

Hearing Tachibana Ryuichi's rhetorical question, Old Man Ito did nod, and he replied: "That's right, I did buy this painting based on many considerations, and it was indeed not because of anger, because ah, I knew a piece of news before you." ”

"What's the news?"

That is, the young painter named Gu Zheng who came to visit this time was the champion of the Tokyo Marathon, which was freshly baked yesterday. ”

"He is the only Asian player to win the championship in the last decade. ”

Speaking of this, Ito swiped the mobile phone screen in his hand, flipped to the huge sports news page with Gu Zheng's photo, and handed it over angrily in the direction of Tachibana Longyi: "Oh, it's this young man, Tachibana Longyi, it's not me saying you, you have to keep pace with the times, you can't just because you're old, you can't care about anything just because you're old." ”

"When I have free time, I still have to watch the news more so that I can keep up with the times. ”

Your sister, a painter, is still a long-distance running champion.

The person in the photo is dressed differently from the young man I just saw, but his face is exactly the same.

A wonderful painting of a world champion, whether it is sold for auction or collected waiting to be appreciated, is a good publicity stunt.

Tachibana Ryuichi, who saw this news photo, knew that the old boy named Ito on the other side would definitely not let go of this rare opportunity for publicity.

In the near future, he will definitely buy Gu Zheng's paintings from his personal collection and release them to the cultural media.

With this attention, let everyone know that he has such a masterpiece in his hands.

Whether it is to promote him personally or his gallery, it is highly topical.

Fooled again.

Where are there so many reasons among businessmen, an opportunity to sell is to make money if you seize it, and regret passing by if you can't catch it, it's so simple.

It's just a loss of potential of more than 100,000 yen, so where can it be lost if it is in the sky?

Tachibana couldn't make a look of frustration when he beat his chest and stomped without grace, but he remembered the name of a Chinese painter in his heart.

Gu Zheng.

He remembered.

If the man had achieved even more, his work might have shown a doubling of profits.

He remembered that among the recommended works just now, there were still a few very wonderful paintings that were not auctioned by Gu Zheng himself.

I think this kid also knows what it means to be vaguely precious, and he is a big cunning character.

Don't worry, after the work is created, it is not a lonely self-appreciation, let its help be more contacted, and there will always be excellent paintings that will be circulated between the dripping water and the stones.

……

Gu Zheng didn't know that when he took the bus to return to China with the team, so many things happened behind him.

In the Chinese visiting group, he rubbed a free return ticket, when he sat in a row with the envious and jealous eyes of Senior Brother Zhang Leng on the plane to eat the free meal on the JAL plane.

The news, which slowly fermented behind him and finally reached a major critical point, broke out.

This is thanks to Bei Jun, who is running around for Gu Zheng.

In order to make up for Gu Zheng's regret that he could not return to China with the sports team and accept the commendation within the Sports Committee, he spent a whole night making Gu Zheng's wonderful news and films on the marathon.
