Tang Ming didn't know if Xu Hong was a member of the Tiannan Artists Association, but he just thought that Xu Hong was already the editor-in-chief of the 'New Star Art Garden', and he must be a member of the Artists Association.

"Yes! It should be!" Gu Xiangming also echoed.

While the two were still discussing this, Miss Liu had already come out of one of the rooms inside.

She came to Gu Xiangming and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, the Xu Hong you said is not a member of the Tiannan Artists Association, nor is he a member of the National Artists Association, so we can't auction his works here!"

"What, how is this possible, he is the editor-in-chief of the 'New Star Art Garden'! How can he not be a member of the Artists Association!" Gu Xiangming listened to Miss Liu's words, and he looked puzzled.

"Mr. Gu, don't be angry, as long as you are a member of the Artists Association, we all have a computer record here, and they all have their names on it. If we can't find it, it can only mean that he is not a member of the Artists Association, sorry, your works cannot be auctioned with us. ”

Miss Liu looked at Gu Xiangming and Tang Ming, and said these rules of their auction house seriously.

"Hey, you auction house, how can you have such a broken rule! We don't let you auction in vain, we have to give you a commission!"

Gu Xiangming looked at Miss Liu very puzzled.

"I know this, first of all, I'm not the general manager, I don't count if I say it. Also, because our auction house is a state-run auction house, of course, it is not quite the same as a commercial auction house. I've heard, though. Our auction house is also going to change hands to private individuals.

If you're not in a hurry. You can wait for a while! If you sell it to a private person, then your work can be auctioned here. ”

As a salesman of Tiannan Auction House, Miss Liu also heard that the company was going to be restructured. So he also revealed a little to Gu Xiangming and Tang Ming first.

"Miss Liu, we are in a hurry to use the money, so we came to auction these works! Let's wait, we have time to wait!" Tang Ming didn't speak for a long time. I can't help but complain now.

"There's nothing I can do. You'd better go to another private auction house!" Miss Liu said as she looked at Tang Ming.

"Miss Liu, can you let us meet your general manager! Xu Hong is a well-known painter! How can you refuse to auction his works! This is unreasonable!" Gu Xiangming still wants to meet the general manager of the family!

"I'm sorry, our general manager went to the city government for a meeting, it may take several days! If you want to find it, you have to wait another week!" Miss Liu told Gu Xiangming and Tang Ming again helplessly.

"Damn! It seems that we can only go home!" As soon as Gu Xiangming heard Miss Liu's words, he knew that this time it was in vain!

"Let's go, let's go back and find a way!" Tang Ming pulled the corner of Gu Xiangming's clothes and asked him to go back!

Gu Xiangming also smiled at Miss Liu and said, "Then trouble Miss Liu, let's go back." ”

Miss Liu also smiled and said, "Boss Gu doesn't need to be polite. This is what I should do. ”――

Gu Xiangming and Tang Ming had no choice but to return to Tang Ming's house.

The two of them tossed again in vain.

Originally, I wanted to auction these works, even if it was a small loss. It doesn't matter!

But now there is no chance of side auctions!

"Old Tang, what should we do now? It's hard to do it, we've been collecting these paintings all the time. Gu Xiangming sat on the sofa, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

"Old Gu, what else can we do, get some private auction houses!" Tang Ming thought about it, and thought that it was better to get some private auction houses!

There are two small private auction houses in Tiannan City, but I know their bosses! Not to mention that their strength is not very good, there are very few big bosses who collect paintings from them!

And I also know their boss! If people know that the two of us spent 10 million to collect a few broken paintings, it would be strange if people didn't laugh at me! I can't say anything and go to a private auction house, so let's think of another way!"

Gu Xiangming didn't want his ugly things to let his friends know, so he denied Tang Ming's proposal again.

"Damn, this won't work, that won't work, then what do you say we should do!" Tang Ming looked at Gu Xiangming with some anger.

"Old Tang, do you want to think of a way again? Do you have some friends you don't like very much? Otherwise, we'll give them this painting again! Even if you lose some money, it doesn't matter!"

Gu Xiangming wanted Tang Ming to pit his friends!

"Hey, old Gu, what do you mean, you don't want to pit your friends, you want me to pit my friends!" Tang Ming listened to Gu Xiangming's words, and he was still unwilling to do so!

"Old Tang, I mean, you don't like your friends! It's not for you to pit your favorite friends!" Gu Xiangming saw that Tang Ming was angry, so he explained again.

"Hey, there it is, we might as well sell this painting to Jin Dabao, an old bastard! He also knows Xu Hong's people! He should also know Xu Hong's paintings, and this exhibition sold them for a good price! He will definitely appreciate Xu Hong's works!"

Tang Ming suddenly thought of Jin Dabao, and wanted to sell these paintings to him!

"Okay, that's a good idea, although we both know Jin Dabao, we still don't have a good impression of him!

As soon as Gu Xiangming heard Tang Ming's words, he slapped his thigh, feeling that this idea was good.

"Okay, that's it, we'll go find Jin Dabao tomorrow. Tang Ming looked at Gu Xiangming happily and said-

The next day, Tang Ming and Gu Xiangming held several paintings by Xu Hong. I came to the pictorial office of 'Tiannan Pictorial'.

The two came directly to Jin Dabao's office.

Jin Dabao happened to be in the office. He saw that it was Gu Xiangming and Tang Ming who came. He smiled unceremoniously and said, "Yo, that gust of wind blew you two old bastards to me." You never seem to have been to me!"

Jin Dabao, Gu Xiangming, and Tang Ming are all well-known collectors in Tiannan City! It's just that his reputation is not very good, Tang Ming and Gu Xiangming are also quite enthusiastic about Jin Dabao on the surface, but in fact, the two of them are not willing to be friends with Jin Dabao at all!

"Jin Datou, what are you talking about! You got this pictorial office and made a fortune, and you don't know how to invite me and Lao Gu to have a drink! We are here to trouble you!" Tang Ming said with a smile as he looked at Jin Dabao.

". Don't laugh at me, my pictorial is not as good as a day! Make a lot of money, make a bird! I'm going to make his mother's 'New Star Art Garden' go crazy!"

In the past few days, Jin Dabao has also been a little big-headed! He and Yao Hong have spent a lot of money to hold this art exhibition, and they originally thought that they would be able to cross the 'New Star Art Garden' in one fell swoop! As a result, he did not cross the 'New Star Art Garden', but they became even more famous! In this art exhibition, the income from other people's small art exhibitions was much higher than the income from his big art exhibition!

"Lao Jin! We also know that it is not easy for you to run a pictorial magazine! The two of us are here to help you!" Tang Ming said, and put a few paintings in front of Jin Dabao.

Jin Dabao still didn't understand what Tang Ming meant! It feels familiar!

"What is this, who drew it!"

Jin Dabao looked at the paintings in front of him and remembered where he had seen them!

"Dabao! This is Xu Hong's work! Haven't you seen it too!" Tang Ming said, pointing to a few paintings in front of him.

"What, Xu Hong's works, what are you doing here with me!" As soon as Jin Dabao heard Tang Ming say that these paintings in front of him were Xu Hong's works, he looked at Tang Ming and Gu Xiangming in surprise.

"Dabao! Isn't the big art exhibition you are holding this time not as good as the small art exhibition held by Xu Hong?" Tang Ming said as he looked at Jin Dabao with some mockery.

"Yes-yes! But what's the matter, our 'Tiannan Pictorial' is still the leader of the art market in Tiannan City! Their 'New Star Art Garden' wants to surpass us, I'm afraid it's not possible!"

Jin Dabao listened to Tang Ming's words and looked at each other very puzzled.

At the art exhibition a few days ago, did Boss Chen Tianchen from the capital spend 10 million to collect one of Xu Hong's works "Fuchun Mountain Residence"!" Tang Ming pulled out this matter again.

"Yes, what's the matter, Chen Tian, that old bastard, who knows if he took the wrong medicine, actually put the garbage into the baby! I see, there is a day when he regrets it. Jin Dabao listened to Tang Ming's words, and he scolded Chen Tian angrily.

"Dabao, don't say that. Chen Tian is a master of the national collecting circles! He is worth more than a billion yuan! The vision of others is not comparable to that of a small collector like you and me! Can people look away? If people could look away, then we would have become poor people a long time ago.

I can't be wrong with Chen Tian's eyesight, Xu Hong's kid's painting level has indeed reached the master's level! People can spend 10 million to collect Xu Hong's works, which is enough to show that the possibility of this kid's works appreciating in the future is too great!"

Tang Ming looked at Jin Dabao and said his opinion on Xu Hong, a painter.

"Old Tang, what do you want to say? Can he Xu Hong become a great painter? Whether he Chen Tian has lost his eyes or not, it doesn't seem to have much to do with us!" Jin Dabao looked at Tang Ming and Gu Xiangming with great puzzlement.

"Dabao! It doesn't matter if you say it, but we now have a collection of several of Xu Hong's works! These works still have a lot of room for appreciation in the market in the future! But Lao Tang and I are a little tight now! We have to sell these paintings!"

Gu Xiangming didn't speak for a long time, after listening to Jin Dabao's words, he didn't wait for Tang Ming to speak, he said their thoughts first.

Jin Dabao is a smart person, as soon as he listens to Gu Xiangming's words, he understands everything.

"Haha, you two old foxes, you really know how to do business! It's all on my old gold's head! But you two don't have to think about it on your toes, Xu Hong, this stinky boy, but my opponent! How can I collect his works!"

As soon as Jin Dabao heard Gu Xiangming's words, he immediately refused.

Because, he is now angry with Xu Hong! He is trying to find a way to clean up Xu Hong! Now it's good, these two old guys, if they want him to collect Xu Hong's works, how can he be willing!

"Dabao! Don't be stupid, we gave you these paintings just to clean up Xu Hong! You think, if you take these paintings, and then a few years later, you earn several times, isn't that tantamount to a slap in the face to Xu Hong!"

Tang Ming listened to Jin Dabao's words, and began to persuade him again.

", that's a nice thing to say. What if in a few years, these paintings are worthless at all!, then who slapped whom!" Jin Dabao looked at Tang Ming unceremoniously and said.

"Dabao! How is this possible! Chen Tian spent 10 million to collect one of Xu Hong's works! All of our four works will be sold to you, and we will ask you for 10 million. Actually, the two of us spent 12 million to collect it at the art exhibition! If you are a friend, we will lose 2 million!

This is all because the two of us were not very lucky some time ago, and we collected a few defective paintings, which caused us to be a little tight now! Otherwise, we would never have sold these paintings!"

Tang Ming saw that Jin Dabao was reluctant to ask for their paintings, so he hurriedly persuaded them again.

"Dabao! That's what Old Tang said! We are here to help you for the sake of our friend! Don't you know how to lift up!"

Gu Xiangming also looked at Jin Dabao and said an unkind word.

"Yes, thank you. You should hurry up and take these paintings, and go back from there, and don't let me see you again. As soon as Jin Dabao heard Gu Xiangming's words, he immediately became angry.

"Hmph, Jin Dabao, okay, you have a kind, then Lao Gu and I will leave you alone, goodbye!"

Tang Ming saw that it was impossible for Jin Dabao to collect their paintings, so he had to brush his sleeves and leave.

"Jin Dabao, you don't give me and Old Tang face, okay, let's see, you can do it yourself!" Gu Xiangming saw that Tang Ming was gone, and of course he immediately left Jin Dabao's office with the painting.

"Fuck, you two old bastards, aren't you pouring salt in my wounds!

Jin Dabao looked at the backs of Gu Xiangming and Tang Ming, and scolded loudly again.

Although Gu Xiangming and Tang Ming also heard it, they didn't hear it. Soon came out of the 'Tiannan Pictorial' pictorial office.

The two touched the ashes again, and returned to Tang Ming's house. (To be continued.) )
