Chapter 1749: You're Not a Businessman
After Bai Lu made this call, Duan Daqing walked up to him and said: "We are in this business, we have analyzed the operation mode of the gallery, and we have also studied the auction procedure, so to speak, as long as the painting can be auctioned, there is a seventy percent chance of selling, the problem is that most people do not have the opportunity to go to auction, now, you can provide this opportunity, give new people a chance." He paused and said, "The biggest difference between you and others is that you are not a businessman, everyone else is a businessman." β
Bai Lu was stunned for a moment: "Why is this topic still the same? Isn't it over?"
Zhao Ping glanced at him: "We can do this, the first time to hold an art exhibition, for ten days, in addition to the normal taxes and fees to your company, we will take out half of the proceeds to invest in your charity fund, as long as you can keep the art center open." β
Bai Lu was stunned for a moment: "The research is quite thorough, is this trying to completely eat me?"
Ma Chengping said: "This is a win-win situation, one win, we well-known painters have multiple publicity opportunities, can sell paintings, can make money to earn fame; two-win, you also have money to make, but also can expand the influence of standard companies and standard world; three-win, can provide opportunities for newcomers, contribute to the cause of art, get a good image; four-win, can have more money to do good deeds, help the people who should be helped." β
Speaking of this, they were silent, and the three of them were looking at Bai Lu.
Bai Lu said, "Why are you looking for me? Where can you go with your strength?"
"Because you're not a businessman. Zhao Ping said.
Bai Lu blinked his eyes: "I'm not a businessman, but how can you make me believe." You're not a merchant either?"
"We are businessmen?" Ma Chengping said, "We have to be businessmen, so we don't want to deal with businessmen, and there are a few things to explain here." First, the local government lends you here, and you can share dividends, but the main person in charge is me, that is, I am responsible for the overall operation; second, every year or every quarter, a famous salon and a famous painting exhibition will be held to form a brand. To shape and enhance the brand power of well-known painters such as Duan Daqing and Zhao Ping, we must try to push it to the highest level; third, not every income should be divided into good deeds. β
Bai Lu smiled: "I'm sure." I don't know how long the meeting was held before you came, this set is too slippery, and you say that you are not prepared, do you believe it?"
Zhao Ping said: "It doesn't matter if you have prepared in advance. The important thing is that we work together to build an art center. You see, you have a song and dance theater here, that is, you can stage dramas, operas, ballets, as well as the world's most high-end Japanese food street, and there are hotels in itself, whether it is art or food, clothing, housing and play, it is very convenient, which is our strength. To make good use of it, as long as the art center is built. With your influence, it won't be long before it resounds throughout the country. β
Bai Lu laughed: "The rabbit's tail is exposed, and you dare to count on me to advertise." β
Zhao Ping said yes, and said: "This is part of the reason for cooperating with you." β
As for the art exhibition and the construction of an art center, we can look at it this way, can Zhao Ping and others get it up and do it? The answer is yes. The question is whether the goal can be achieved. The so-called goal, one is to become famous and the other is to make money, in the early stage, it is very likely to invest a lot of money, energy and nothing, the most troublesome is to find a venue, there are many studios and galleries in the north city are built outside the city, and it takes an hour and a half to enter the city.
Rent in the city is definitely expensive, and outside the city it is cheap but inconvenient. It is rare that there is a standard world on Bailu, although the area of a single studio is not comparable to a regular exhibition hall, but it is not an exhibition hall at all, not to mention that there are other rooms that can be used.
This matter is drunk and motivated, but if you really want to develop well, you have to find someone who is willing to spend money to support you. There are houses and lands on the white road, and the biggest problem is solved in an instant.
For Zhao Ping and others, the development of art is a long-term goal, not to mention engaging in art, but also doing business, everyone hopes that the industry they are engaged in has a vast and huge market.
When the market is big, only those who mix in the market can have enough to eat.
The short-term goal is to make money without losing money while developing long-term goals.
From this point of view, they didn't think about Bai Lu a little.
But the fact is that they are really thinking about Bai Lu, and Bai Lu has a cut of every painting sold here. At the same time, it can quickly expand the influence of Standard World. Not to mention that it will help Bailu win a good reputation, contribute to the cause of art, and provide development opportunities for many newcomers.
Of course, Zhao Ping will see the benefits first.
Bai Lu has a huge influence, and the things he handles can always be widely spread on the Internet, and if the matter itself is a little bit of news, it will become hot news. Finding Bailu cooperation can not only solve the venue, but also solve the publicity problem in the early stage.
Of course, the most important point is that Bailu is not a merchant and does not care about money.
Seeing Zhao Ping admit it, Bai Lu said, "How do I feel that you are calculating me?"
Zhao Ping said: "This is how to do business, seek to maximize benefits, and cooperate with you, we have a great possibility to realize our dreams......
Bai Lu interrupted: "Don't talk about dreams, you won't be comfortable when you hear these two words." Then he said: "Each of you will take one million out first, and the upfront operating expenses, if you think that you can't earn back one million from me, then you have to hold an art exhibition, and the so-called art center will be counted." β
Zhao Ping glanced at Duan Daqing and asked Bai Lu: "What is the concept of one million per person, is it all the people who want to join the salon?"
Bai Lu said: "To set up a standard art club, don't you want to be influential and make money? Take a million membership fees, after the art center is established, it will hold special exhibitions for members every month, and there will be it every month, how about it?"
"Is it given every year, or is it a one-time payment?" Zhao Ping asked again.
"This is not in a hurry to settle down, if the deal is not good, even if it is good at one time, but if the development is magnificent and magnificent, attracting artists from all over the country to run here, and even foreigners, then you should not be stingy if you collect another one million two hundred, right?" Bai Lu said with a smile.
For the three people in front of him, a million is not much. But it's definitely a lot, why don't you spend a million first? If you really want to spend so much money, is it necessary to cooperate with Bailu?
But looking at Bai Lu's expression, what can be determined is that if they don't take money and don't establish this club, there is absolutely no possibility of continuing to cooperate.
This is a million, Ma Chengping sells paintings in the United States, usually a few hundred dollars to more than a thousand dollars, and wants to make a million...... Fortunately, it is RMB, which is less than 200,000 US dollars...... But 200,000 is not a lot! Ma Chengping hesitated.
Duan Daqing and Zhao Ping have money, but they can't spend it like this if they have money.
Zhao Ping asked more: "Must a club be established?"
"A must. Bai Lu said: "If you set up a club, I will join it, and I will also participate in art exhibitions, anyway, I will paint portraits." "It's like adding another chip in.
Zhao Ping looked at Ma Chengping and said to Bai Lu: "I need to discuss it with everyone." β
"Let's discuss, let's go directly to Yangling after discussing. Bai Lu asked, "Is there anything else?" If it's okay, I'm in trouble." β
"You're busy, let's go back to the hotel. Duan Daqing said.
So, the three of them said goodbye to Bai Lu and went back to the hotel room.
Bai Lu went to Yang Ling to talk about the establishment of an art center and an art club.
Yang Ling considered this matter from the perspective of a normal businessman, and immediately approved with both hands.
If the studio is empty, it can also be changed into a gallery, not to mention the multiple incomes, it can also improve the grade of the standard world and increase the image score.
Bai Lu smiled: "I knew you could agree." Then he said, "They will also agree, and you will get some more benefits back, such as a percentage of the commission." β
Yang Ling said that you can rest assured, and said: "This is what you should do as a boss, come on, keep up the good work, I am optimistic about you." β
"The role of the boss is to pull business?" Bai Lu shook his head and asked, "Fang Xiaoyu, are they leaving?"
"Let's go, go home for the New Year, it's the fifth day of the new year. Yang Ling said: "By the way, Xiaoya gave a Jianyì, saying that she could open a black label branch in Hengcheng......"
"Stop. Bai Lu Zhengse said: "The black label is a specific product, there is no change, but you have to remember one thing, we are not for the rich, we are for the people who care about our service, the price of the standard hotel, the price of the Japanese food street upstairs, and the price of the black label, it must stop at this standard, it can't be changed, but it's not what we want; β
Yang Ling suddenly smiled: "If you have time to have a few more meetings with me, listen to the speeches of elites, that is to open your mouth and close your mouth to serve high-end people, but it is also right, a magazine is dozens of dollars, and a car is hundreds of thousands, which is indeed aimed at high-end customers." β
"Let them go to the high-end. Bai Lu said casually.
Yang Ling picked up a piece of paper from the table: "The location has been passed here, when will you leave?"
Bai Lu took it and looked at it twice, it was the information on the location of the troops on the border.
He had to go to the troops to contact him before he could go to the border post, so the paper was just the number of several troops, and the address, telephone number, contact person, etc. There is no specific sentry position, that is a military secret.
Glancing at it, he put down the paper and asked, "Who's going with me?"
"See how happy you are. Yang Ling asked: "Mingchen is okay, right?
Bai Lu replied happily: "Li Sen." β
Yang Ling disagreed: "His directing style is soft, this is brought by you; I have discussed with him, from the script to the establishment of the crew and the search for actors for the next play, he will do it all by himself, you have to find another director." β
Bai Lu pouted and said: "Don't ask my opinion on such a big matter, and deduct my salary." β
Yang Ling said, "Just call Darren here." β
"Stop! I can't afford to pay my salary. Bai Lu said: "Do you want Mingchen to ...... Tintin, let Tintin be the director with the baby, haha, I'm smart, right?"
Yang Suzuki looked at him with an expression, looked at him for a while, and said, "How long can you be unreliable?"
"Why is it unreliable? This is a chance, let's come up with a pair of beautiful female directors......" Speaking of female directors, Bai Lu thought of Yu Hongbing and asked: "Director Yu only applied for the Berlin Film Festival?"
"It's the Golden Horse and the North City Film Festival. Yang Ling said: "Berlin also reported, the main competition unit, but it seems that it was not selected." (To be continued......)
