Chapter 51 Potential Painters

Tang Ming is an expert, at first glance, Xu Hong's paintings are level, by no means worse than the paintings of the masters, such talents have potential, if they buy a painting from him now and collect it, in a few years, I am afraid that it will appreciate.

As a collector, my biggest hobby is collecting. They just use a unique vision that ordinary people do not have to see how much room some artworks may appreciate in the future, and whether they are worth collecting.

Big collectors, sometimes, will also collect some works of the stall painting school, because among these people, there are very few, maybe one day, will become a well-known painter in the country, when the time comes, the works that may have been hundreds of dollars before, after the painter becomes famous, it is likely to be hyped to millions!

Tang Ming is a collector specializing in the art of painting and calligraphy, and he has a more acute insight than an appraiser, and can see whether some stall paintings will become master-level works in the future.

Today, Tang Ming came to this ordinary art exhibition, that is, he wanted to try his luck and see if he could meet some potential stall painters. If there is a good work, collect one, because the paintings in such an exhibition must be very cheap.

So after Tang Ming arrived here just now, he first went to the exhibition hall to take a turn, he originally thought that the paintings here should be better, and there are high-level works.

But what disappointed him was that after reading the works of those painters in "Tiannan Pictorial", he really didn't dare to compliment, and he felt very ordinary. There is little potential for appreciation.

So Tang Ming turned to the outside again, he didn't have any hopes, he felt that the works in the exhibition hall were not very good, and the works outside were not even worse.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he saw Xu Hong's work, his eyes lit up.

"Oh my God! Sure enough, it's a master in the folk! This kid's painting is really unusual! This level is definitely a master! ”

Tang Ming only glanced at Xu Hong's paintings, and felt that Xu Hong was a painter with great potential, and the possibility of becoming a master painter in the future was too great.

So he wanted to collect a work by Xu Hong, although he also asked the price, but he thought, this stall painting school's work, it is impossible to exceed 1,000 yuan. A few hundred dollars is already considered a high price.

To say that Tang Ming is a master who is not bad for money, he is worth hundreds of millions. Even if it is 10,000 yuan, for him, it is the same as 100 yuan in the eyes of ordinary people.

But it depends on the circumstances, if it is in some large-scale art exchange meetings, 10,000 yuan of works are very normal. It can also be said to be a cheap work.

But in the stall painting school, 10,000 yuan, that is absolutely surprising.

"Young man, why are your paintings so expensive!" Tang Ming was still very surprised, Xu Hong's words were completely unexpected.

"You get what you pay for, and I think my work is worth the price." Xu Hong said confidently looking at his painting.

"Yo, you're pretty confident! However, your painting is good, but you want too much, and the value of the painting lies not only in the artistic level of the painting itself, but also in the author's fame. Only famous painters, their works are more valuable, and you are just a stall painter, your works should not be bought so expensive.

In this way, I see that your works are indeed good, a thousand paintings, I want them, how about it! Two thousand yuan to buy you two paintings, this is already the highest price among the stall painters. ”

Although Tang Ming has money, his money does not fall from the sky. He can't just throw a million dollars at it!

"Uncle, I'm sorry, my nickname is Xu Yiwan. My paintings must be sold for 10,000 yuan. "Xu Hong has already seen that the big boss in front of him has a lot of ideas about his paintings, and he must have 'looked' at it. How can you bargain so easily!

"Boy, that's not a good nickname! A stall painter, how can he be called Xu 10,000! In this way, I see that your painting is indeed good, and I will add another thousand to you, how about two thousand. ”

The more Tang Ming looked at Xu Hong's paintings, he felt that there was a great possibility of appreciation in the future. He couldn't put it down.

"Nope! Uncle, I'm not going to change my nickname. Just 10,000, not a penny. Xu Hong looked at Tang Ming categorically.

"Young man, why are you like this! Do you know who I am! Don't say that I spent money to buy your paintings, even if I want you to paint for nothing, this is all your creation! If your painting is in my hands, it can definitely appreciate in value, and even you, a painter, can also increase your fame! ”

Tang Ming was very awesome, because he felt that a stall painter was not qualified to bargain with him.

"I'm sorry, uncle, I don't care who you are, anyway, my paintings will be sold for 10,000, this is the rule, I can't give it to you for nothing just because you are a big man!"

Xu Hongcai doesn't care who this person is in front of him! He still never lowers the price.

"Okay, boy, you're amazing, who told me to like your paintings too much! In this way, 10,000, how about I buy these two works of yours, one is 5,000! It's already more expensive than the works in the exhibition hall! ”

Tang Ming really liked Xu Hong's paintings so much that he couldn't help but raise the price to 5,000 again.

"I repeat, this "Portrait of Miss Sisi" does not sell at all, and this "Eight Horses" costs 10,000. I'm just saying this one time. Please stop being verbose. ”

Xu Hong really couldn't stand it anymore, so he finally stated this time.

"You ------, lad"

Tang Ming didn't know what to say for a while.

"I'll give 10,000! This "Eight Horses" belongs to me! ”

Just when Xu Hong and Tang Ming were at a stalemate, another middle-aged uncle in a fat suit and leather shoes came to Xu Hong's stall.

"Old Gu, why are you! That gust of wind blew you fat man over! There doesn't seem to be a typhoon today! How can I blow you! ”

Tang Ming and Xu Hong were at a stalemate, and another big man arrived, his name was Gu Xiangming, and he was also one of the four major collectors in Tiannan City, and Tang Ming was good friends. Before, he had already seen Xu Hong's works well. Last time, I wanted to buy a piece of Xu Hong's work "Eight Horses"! But Xu Hong's asking price was too high, so he had to give up.

Of course, there is another reason, that is, he himself is not very confident, although he has seen that Xu Hong's paintings have a very high artistic level, and there is a lot of room for appreciation in the future, but his eyesight is not as good as Tang Ming, and it is not his specialty in identifying paintings, his specialty lies in the identification of jade jewelry.

Therefore, although he saw that Xu Hong's works had a huge room for appreciation, he was still careful and did not spend a lot of money on Xu Hong's "Eight Horses".
