Chapter 640 Trading

Cheng Yihai saw that Chen Tian spoke first, and he hurriedly said the same. After all, what Chen Tian said shows that people are really Chen Tian.

"It's like a fake!" Chen Tian looked at Cheng Yihai and made a joke.

Cheng Yihai decided that this person was Chen Tianhou, so he hurriedly came to Chen Tian and took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with others. Then he let Chen Tian go to the sofa next to him.

"Boss Chen, I don't know, what is the matter with you coming to our school. If you have something, just say, as long as I Cheng Yihai can do it, I will definitely try my best to do it for you. Cheng Yihai looked at Chen Tian and felt happy in his heart, he knew that Chen Tian was looking for himself, maybe it was because of that painting.

Because, Cheng Yihai knows very well that Chen Tian is a big collector who specializes in collecting paintings. He looks for others, usually because of the collection of paintings. If it weren't for this, he would generally not go to others, especially a person like him Cheng Yihai, who is not very famous. How could Chen Tian come to him for no reason!

It's just that Cheng Yihai thinks so in his heart, of course he can't say it directly. Of course, he had to pretend that he didn't know anything.

Chen Tian listened to Cheng Yihai's words, he glanced at Cheng Yihai and said, "Principal Cheng, I don't have any other big things to look for you, just a small thing." ”

"Oh, what a trivial matter, Boss Chen, please speak directly. Cheng Yihai looked at Chen Tian and wondered, wouldn't he say it was because of "Mona Lisa".

"Well, didn't you have a collection of paintings called the Mona Lisa? I just want to see this painting now. ”

Hearing Chen Tian say this, Cheng Yihai was of course very happy. But Cheng Yihai is also an old fritter, he can't let Chen Tian see that he deliberately wants to give this painting to his hands.

"Boss Chen, the painting is in my house, not here. Cheng Yihai said first.

"Oh, it's in your house! It doesn't matter, can you bring the painting here tomorrow, I want to see that painting." Chen Tian said.

"Does Boss Chen want to collect that "Mona Lisa"?" Cheng Yihai listened to Chen Tian's words, and first asked tentatively. Of course, Chen Tian is also an old fritter, how could he let Cheng Yihai see his motives!

I'm a collector, and of course I want to collect some good quality works. However, I don't collect mediocre works. For some newcomers' works, I will also collect some of them. But not by much. This mainly depends on whether this newcomer's work has potential. I heard that in this competition, there is a work called "Mona Lisa", which is still very good. So I wanted to take a look. If it's really good, of course I'm willing to collect it. But if the quality is not good, of course I don't want to collect it. ”

Of course, Chen Tian would not directly say that he wanted to collect this work. He just said that he wanted to see this work, to see if it was worth collecting.

Hearing Chen Tian say this, Cheng Yihai said very confidently: "Boss Chen, I can't hide it, I can be sure that Xu Hong's "Mona Lisa" is a very good work. It's just that I like it very much, and I don't plan to make a move! If Boss Chen also likes it, I can naturally show it to you. But don't think about it, you have to sell this painting to me. I'm not going to change hands!"

It can be said that Cheng Yihai has already felt that Chen Tian came to him because of that "Mona Lisa"! Since even Chen Tian attaches so much importance to this work. That means that this work must be of good quality. If that's the case, then you have to keep it in your own hands!

Chen Tian listened to Cheng Yihai's words, and said with a smile: "Haha, Principal Cheng, do you think the Mona Lisa too well! I can tell you, collecting some newcomers' works is very risky." I know a lot more about this line of work than you do. Do you think I really want to collect this Mona Lisa? I just want to see this one. There's just a little bit of collectible value. ”

After listening to Chen Tian's words, Cheng Yihai felt that it was also very reasonable. What kind of person is Chen Tian? People have much more collecting experience than him. Of course, what people say makes sense. When he heard this, he said, "If that's the case, then I'll show you this painting tomorrow!

"Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow!"

Chen Tian listened to Cheng Yihai's words and immediately agreed. I didn't show any desire to see this work.

In this way, the next day, Chen Tian came to Cheng Yihai's office again.

At this time, Cheng Yihai also took Xu Hong's work.

"How about it, Principal Cheng, have you brought Xu Hong's work!" Chen Tian arrived at Cheng Yihai's office and asked first.

Cheng Yihai listened to Chen Tian's words, and said with a smile: "Of course, I brought Xu Hong's painting, you wait a minute, it's locked in the drawer of my office!"

It seems that Cheng Yihai also attaches great importance to this painting, even if he puts it in the drawer of his desk, it is locked first, for fear that after he leaves the office, someone else will come in and take away his painting.

"Okay, I'm not in a hurry, you take it slowly. Chen Tian listened to Cheng Yihai's words, he just stood in front of Cheng Yihai casually, looking like he didn't care.

Cheng Yihai took out his key, opened the desk drawer in front of him, and took out a rolled painting from it. Then, it was spread out on the desk in front of him.

"Boss Chen, take a look! This is Xu Hong's "Mona Lisa", how about it, is it a good painting!"

After Cheng Yihai said this, he observed Chen Tian's expression.

Chen Tian pretended not to care, he just glanced at Xu Hong's "Mona Lisa", and immediately felt excited. After all, he could see at a glance that this painting was definitely superb. In the capital, there is no painter who can paint Western paintings so well.

Although there are many painters in the capital, most of them are only good at painting Chinese paintings. For oil painting, I am generally not good at Western painting. Therefore, among some of the celebrity paintings in Chen Tian's collection, there are no Western paintings!

Although Chen Tian looked at Xu Hong's work, he was already deeply attracted by this work. But he's also an old fritter. If only ordinary people. As soon as I see such a good work, I am afraid that I will not be able to hide the excitement in my heart.

But Chen Tian is not an ordinary person, he is a battle-hardened veteran. He knows very well that when he wants to collect a certain work, he must show that he does not care about the work. And,It's not a good work.,I just don't want it.。 Otherwise, it would be impossible to buy a good work at a low price. This collection of works of art, that is originally a business, only the lower the cost, the greater the room for appreciation later, and the greater the profit you earn. If you can't control costs, not only will you not make huge profits, but you may even lose money!

Now Chen Tian is facing this excellent oil painting by Xu Hong, he only looks at it, and he feels that his heart is pounding all of a sudden. However, Chen Tian also knew that Cheng Yihai was now observing his expression! Because Cheng Yihai was not a rookie. Although, his level cannot be compared with Chen Tian. But he also knows that in such art transactions, the price fluctuations are very large. Art is a special commodity, it is not like any other ordinary commodity. Although those ordinary goods, there will also be some price fluctuations, and when buying ordinary goods, we also have to bargain with the boss.

But the space where we bargain with the boss when buying ordinary goods is not much at all. Because, the price fluctuations of ordinary commodities are not too large. At most, it's between a few thousand and tens of thousands. That's it, only some large commodities, such as cars and houses, will have price fluctuations of thousands to tens of thousands.

Like some ordinary daily necessities, the price fluctuation of the commodity is very small. Originally, an ordinary daily necessities were in the price range of a few yuan to a few thousand yuan, no matter how it fluctuated, this price space was not much.

But artwork is different. An ordinary work of art, if you hype up the price. That ordinary artwork that was originally only worth a few hundred yuan, if the price is speculated, it is possible to speculate the price to tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

The same is true in the trade of art, the price of this artwork is not a uniform standard. There is a good saying, 'Gold has a price, jade is priceless'. In fact, the word 'jade' can also be replaced with the word 'artwork'. Because the finished product of jade is itself some work of art. Therefore, the phrase 'gold is priceless and jade is priceless' can also be replaced with 'gold is priceless, but art is priceless'.

Therefore, in the transaction of art, it depends on the vision of both parties to the transaction and the skills of the transaction. Only by having both of these qualities can you become a good art collector and win more and lose less in the art trade. In order to continue to accumulate wealth and become a big figure in the art collecting industry.

In comparison, Cheng Yihai has some attainments in these two aspects. But compared with Chen Tian, he looks very immature again. In front of a big man like Chen Tian, Cheng Yihai's little ninety-nine is all in Chen Tian's grasp.

Now Chen Tian knows very well that Cheng Yihai is observing him, just to see if Chen Tian will really be interested in this painting of Xu Hong. If Chen Tian is also tempted, it means that this work is indeed a superb work. If this is the case, then he Cheng Yihai can naturally open his mouth in front of Chen Tian.

But if Chen Tian is not very optimistic about such a work. There is no 'love at first sight' expression. Then he Cheng Yihai just didn't dare to open his mouth to Chen Tianshi, he would definitely ask for a price that was not too high.

Therefore, Chen Tian is now looking at Xu Hong's works, although his heart is already turbulent, but he is calm on the surface. It gives people the feeling that he is not optimistic about this work. Although he wanted this work very much in his heart, his expression was unwavering, and he looked like he didn't like this work.

Chen Tian just stared at Xu Hong's work for a while, and then looked at Cheng Yihai with a flat gaze and said, "This work, although it can be regarded as a good work. It's not a great work at all. I just don't have much interest in this piece. If Principal Cheng doesn't want to make a move, you can keep it yourself! This work can now be said to be in the middle of the heat. After all, this time Xu Hong won the tenth place in the 'National Youth Painting Competition'. Although this result is not very good. But insiders know that Xu Hong's works are still very good. If you talk about real strength, then Xu Hong's works can be in the top three. Therefore, there are still many people who want Xu Hong's work now. But the only person who can really give this work a good price is me Chen Tian.

To be honest, I'm a very picky person when it comes to collectible works. It's generally not a good work, and I don't want to collect it. Xu Hong's work, although it is also a good painting. But when I looked at it, I just felt that there were some flaws, worse than I thought. ”

Of course, Chen Tian couldn't let Cheng Yihai see his true thoughts. So, he just came to a desire to get away with it. Let's start with that. Then he went back to observe Cheng Yihai's expression. I want to see what he thinks now!

Cheng Yihai also has some experience in selling art. But his little experience is nothing compared to Chen Tian. Chen Tian can hide his true thoughts in front of him. But he Cheng Yihai just had no choice, in front of Chen Tian, he covered up his inner thoughts tightly.

As soon as Cheng Yihai heard Chen Tian's words, he immediately felt a little flustered. After all, his level of appreciation is far worse than that of Chen Tian. Chen Tian said that the work was not good. Then this one piece, even if it is very good. I'm afraid it's getting bad. After all, Chen Tian represents a kind of supreme authority! In the world of collecting, Chen Tian can cover the sky with one hand! People want to say that a certain work of art is not very good. Then it's just not good.
