Episode 379 The Great God writes the preface
To be honest, the first time Kowloon wrote a book, I didn't expect it to be so difficult, not only the accumulation of knowledge, but also the perception of practice, it is not easy, this time to write a book, if it is not for the help of all the big coffees, it really can't be written.
In addition to doing futures, he spends all his spare time here.
Of course, in the process of writing the book, Jiulong did not say that it was okay to communicate with a few experts, he also communicated with several stone friends in Shanghang, whether it was Chen Wenlong, Master Qiu or Lin Boss, he did a good communication.
They were also surprised that Kowloon was so young that he wanted to write a book, but Kowloon told them the ins and outs, and they understood.
Writing a book, of course, it is inevitable to introduce their own stones, Kowloon in addition to their own boutiques, did not eat alone, he also recommended the good picture stone of his hometown, no matter who the owner is, as long as it is a good stone, all on.
After writing these, Jiulong first asked Mr. Wang Tianran to take a look, and after he thought there was no problem, he uploaded the whole manuscript to Qian Dashen, and asked him to write a preface for himself.
Soon, less than a week, Qian Dashen's preface came, in which he spent a considerable amount of space talking about his own research on Jiulongbi, and at the same time took the opportunity to publicize his published book "Chinese Jiulongbi", and finally devoted one-third of the space to this book of the picture stone collection.
He said, I have been friends with Kowloon for a long time, and often interact, among the young generation of stone lovers in the Fujian stone world, Kowloon can be said to be one of the leaders, or one of the "potential stocks".
This not only refers to his large collection of a variety of exquisite ornamental stones, but also commendable is that he has consistently enthusiastically supported and participated in various cultural activities of stone appreciation, and spared no effort to do his best.
I often say that to become a famous stone artist, not all of them are important to the number of hidden stones, but more importantly, their moral character, stone appreciation culture and contributions to stone appreciation culture.
And Kowloon is tirelessly exploring and advancing along this "stone road".
The birth of this Jiulongbi picture stone collection book, although the picture stone is only his personal collection, may not be positioned to fill the overall historical gap of the Jiulongbi picture stone, but it is certainly a pioneering and attempt worth waiting for, and it will definitely be able to create a good start for the publicity and promotion of the Jiulongbi picture stone and its culture, and it is also a certain degree and significance of the contribution made to the cultural industry chain of Jiulongbi.
Happily following the instructions to write the preface is not only an expression of high hopes, but also a spur to myself, and I hope that it may be an encouragement to like-minded people.
The payment was Qian Zhonghua, and he also carefully wrote the preface date.
For Kowloon, as long as he helps write the preface, it is enough, as for what he wants to express, let him go, after all, he is a great god, as a junior, how dare he say irresponsible things.
The next thing is much simpler, Jiulong contributed money and efforts, went to the printing house to print nearly 3,000 copies, ready to give Shi friends he knew, and everyone had a copy widely distributed.
Jiulong told Qian Dashen about this plan, and Qian Dashen immediately shook his head: "Jiulong, this is a big deal, how can you be so hasty, in this way, don't be in a hurry, I'll help you choose a date." ”
With the help of the rich god, Jiulong agreed without even thinking about it.
The reason is very simple, he has been engaged in writing work for a long time, and he knows how to promote himself very well.
During the Spring Festival, Jiulong and Xiao Qiao also went back to Jinling to visit their parents-in-law, and met with Brother Zhao by the way.
Brother Zhao knew that Jiulong was trading futures, and he thought it was incredible, and said that he would play with stones?
"Of course, the ten-year covenant doesn't say that I must make a fortune in Shishi, I just need to prove that the choice to go back to my hometown is correct, and you don't care about the rest. ”
Kowloon took Brother Zhao's army.
"Well, even if you do something else, ten years later, you still won't be able to beat me. ”
Brother Zhao is surprisingly confident.
"You are a teaching gentleman, what is there to be crazy about, I don't talk about futures, even stones, ten years later, it will also impress you. ”
Kowloon was not convinced.
"Do you think that Mr. Teaching can only get a dead salary? You must know that my strength is calligraphy and painting, as long as I am inspired, the value of a painting is much stronger than your so-called fine work, this is the terrible of culture, you know!"
Brother Zhao taught Kowloon a lesson.
"We play with stones and culture, and I believe that in the near future, we will definitely be able to enter the hall of elegance, and major auction houses will also have a place for strange stones. ”
Kowloon argues with reason.
"If it is an old stone, such as a classical stone with a heritage, it has been there for a long time when it is on the auction house, but the new stone, if the auction house looks at it, where is your culture, where is your heritage, where is your history?"
Brother Zhao asked three questions in a row.
"Brother Zhao's words are wrong, they are masterpieces of contemporary painters, aren't they also frequent customers of auction houses?
Kowloon repays the gift with the way of others.
"Well, their paintings are artistic. ”
Brother Zhao retorted.
"We can also make ornamental stones artistic, through discovery, with scenery display, natural artwork can not be compared with artificial. ”
Kowloon also moved out of his opinion.
"Okay, everything speaks with facts, let's see. ”
Brother Zhao stopped arguing, and the two of them drank and talked happily until they drank and fell down.
Soon after the Spring Festival, Kowloon returned to Egret Island to continue his futures business.
In the evening of this day, Kowloon was exchanging experiences with Shi You, when his mobile phone suddenly rang.
Jiulong hurriedly answered, and it turned out to be Qian Dashen calling: "Jiulong, the matter of establishing the Provincial Stone Association is a little bad, and that friend of yours, He Gang, also wants to fight for this position, which is really depressing." ”
"Yes, even if he fights, it should be Mr. Qian who is more active, after all, you are familiar with it. ”
"Alas, these days are familiar and useful, and money can be used to understand the spirits. ”
There is a saying in the myth of the big money.
"Teacher Qian, I don't understand what you mean, please elaborate. ”
"I underestimated He Gang, he actually found the Provincial Jade Association to help. ”
"What about the Jade Association? Isn't it a different association? Isn't the China Stone Association listening to them?"
Jiulong felt strange, this provincial stone association, no one wanted to apply for it at the beginning, and two people popped up in this application, no wonder Qian Dashen was in a hurry.
"It is true that the Jade Association and the China Stone Association are at the same level, but our provincial Jade Association is mainly in charge of Shoushan Stone, therefore, the Association has money, and it is much easier than us to get the China Stone Association, and they want to get the brand of the Provincial Stone Association together, which is conducive to the hype of Shoushan Stone. ”
When Qian Dashen said this, he was full of helplessness.
