Chapter 126: Auction

In addition to the above five points, the sixth point is also particularly important, that is, the need for legal support. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The museum waist can bear civil liability independently, in case something goes wrong with the collection, the relevant authorities will hold you accountable, so legal support is key.

In addition, it should be added that the names of non-state-owned museums are generally not allowed to be titled with the words "China", "China", "Country" and so on (referred to as "China").

However, there is also a special side to things, if you feel that your collection is broad and profound, can represent Chinese traditional culture, and the word "China" does not represent your museum, then you can also submit an application, which will be reviewed and approved by the Office of the Central Committee for the Establishment of Institutions, in conjunction with the ****** administrative department for cultural relics.

However, in general, it is very difficult for a private museum to approve unless you have antiques that you can rival and you need someone to help you do it.

Mr. Ma Weidu, the first private museum in China, officially opened on January 18, 1997, the name of the museum is not the beginning of the word "country", but called the Guanfu Museum of Classical Art.

Of course, Xi Qing thought that his museum could be more famous, but in fact, it was all the same.

Don't the above two people think of a museum name that starts with "China"? That's definitely not, hang the word "China", how face-saving is that? The problem is that they can't approve it at all, they can't do it.

Xi Qing continued to look down, the previous outline, the Ministry of Culture and the capital are roughly similar, but in terms of the detailed rules and documents that need to be submitted, the imperial capital of the capital is much more refined.

The museum regulations put forward clear requirements for the director of the museum, that is, the director must have a bachelor's degree or above, and more than two years of experience in museum management.

This undergraduate graduation is nothing, but how can Xi Qing have experience in museum management.

"This is simply an unreasonable request, except for state-owned museums, who has experience in private museums? This simply doesn't make sense. ”

When he saw this, Xi Qing frowned slightly and scolded very unhappily.

If this museum can be organized, then Xi Qing is definitely the director of the museum, but more than two years of museum management work experience is stuck in Xi Qing, is it possible that he has to ask someone to be the director?

Tao Xiaoman, who had been sitting next to Xi Qing and studying these regulations with him, gently touched Xi Qing and said, "Xi Qing, what are you anxious about?" Look back, isn't there an explanation behind this, you have to look down......"

"Huh? Or someone with expertise in a related field can also be the director of the museum, which is almost ......" Xi Qing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

With this article, it is much easier to do, Xi Qing still has a certain prestige in the fine arts, sculpture art industry, and his skills have also been recognized by the industry, so he should be regarded as having a specialty in related fields.

If the conditions are met, the next thing is to find the address of the museum, since it is going to be done, Xi Qing is not ready to rent a house to rebuild, he wants to buy the land directly in one step and build it, so that the security and preventive measures can be strengthened from the beginning.

It's just a while, let Xi Qing go to the whole piece of land, the whole ready-made house to rebuild, in the capital, it's really not easy, and he really doesn't have the ability.

To have a good location and a cheap price, although he can have a unique eye on antiques by relying on warm currents, but for speculating on land to buy a house, Xi Qing is the same as the old aunts who sell vegetables in the vegetable market, and he doesn't know anything.

But if you can't stand this declaration of a private museum, you must first submit a certificate of the right to use the premises of the museum. So this house has become a top priority.

But at this point, Tao Xiaoman smiled, she really had something to do with it in the capital, and her hidden identity gradually became known to Xi Qing at this time, that is, Tao Xiaoman's father was a big man.

He can help, in short, the location of the capital does not have to worry, there will be it, and the price is affordable.

It's good to have such a girlfriend, the house is done, Xi Qing continued to find a blank piece of paper, and began to calculate his current net worth, you know, according to the regulations of the capital, to declare a private museum, it is necessary to issue a collection catalog.

If you want to apply for a private museum that starts with the word "country", the catalogue of the collection is particularly important, and there are quantitative requirements for national first-class cultural relics.

After enumerating it on paper, Xi Qing found that he had a lot of good things now.

According to the grading standards of the national cultural relics collection, the Guiguzi Xiashan blue and white porcelain jar, the white jade tiger belonging to the Guimet Museum and other objects are all listed.

In addition, Wu Lisha's batch of antique swords was also written by Xi Qing, which was a good thing before, an exhibition hall of more than 20,000 square meters, just with Xi Qing's collection, it was not enough to see.

However, in the early stage, Xi Qing will definitely not open the entire exhibition hall, he will open the museum to a limited extent according to the actual collection, and slowly add items to it, Rome was not built in a day, and this museum must be slowly enriched.

And after the museum opens, it can also collect collections from the antique world, and the ownership of these collected collections still belongs to the original owner, Xi Qing just signed an agreement with it, and then put it on display in the museum, of course, Xi Qing also has to pay some fees for this.

The site of the museum has been solved, and now the problem is the number of museum collections, Wu Lisa's antique swords, domestic and foreign collections combined, a total of more than 300.

Counting the dozens of antiques in Xi Qing's hands, although the quantity still feels a little less, but the quality is not low, there are more than 10 pieces of national first-class protected cultural relics alone, plus a few Picasso sketches that Xi Qing is going to leave behind, and it seems that the name of the museum with the prefix "country" is not considered a humble person.

And among them, there are a few large objects, such as the "elephant zun" bronze that does not belong to Xi Qing, that is, the big ding, and those treasures in Paris, which all belong to the important weapons of the country, even if some famous state-owned museums, they may not be able to have such collections.

……

After sorting out the list, Xi Qing dialed Xiaobai's phone number from the Ministry of Culture, faxed the list, and communicated with Xiaobai on the phone.

Because to apply for a private museum, it is also necessary to fill in the registration application, the museum's charter, the exhibition outline, the certificate of the right to use the premises, the certificate of funds, the academic certificate of the curator and the main professional and technical personnel, as well as the resume of the profession and other materials.

The registration application and the museum's charter, including the exhibition outline, are easy to handle, and there should be ready-made information at the Xijing Museum, so Mayor Deng can say hello, and Xiaobai can directly copy a copy of the same.

As for the proof of the right to use the land for the site, it should not be a big problem to guarantee it in the name of the developer, as for the proof of funds, Xi Qing reported his euro account to Xiaobai, and when the museum verified the capital, his millions of euros of funds were not small.

It's just that the professional and technical personnel of this museum have academic certificates, which makes Xi Qing have a bit of a headache, and finally Xiaobai gave an idea, go to several schools in Beijing with museum majors to recruit workers temporarily, as long as the treatment is better, this problem can also be solved.

In the end, it's Xi Qing's own business, if you want to be a curator, you have to have qualifications, but it's hard not to **** Qing, and directly let the National Engraving Association open a certificate to prove that Xi Qing is an expert in carving and painting, and this curator is worthy of his name.

"Xi Qing, what is the name of our museum?"

After the matter was almost discussed, Xiaobai finally asked this question, with the great god of Tao Xiaoman's father, there should not be a big problem with the formalities or anything, but the museum must have a name after all, right?

"Name?"

Xi Qing was stunned for a moment, he only thought about those details, but he really didn't think about the name of the museum, and this name is really not easy to come up with, because the types of Xi Qing's collection are too complicated, there are ceramics, ancient paintings, bronzes and ancient swords, and it is impossible to name them according to categories.

Xi Qing thought of a few names, but immediately rejected them.

"Xi Qing, if it doesn't work, it's called the Dragon and Phoenix Museum, it also reflects the culture of Chinese characteristics, hoping that the son will become a dragon, and the woman will become a phoenix, in our China, the dragon and phoenix are also auspicious, indicating that the museum will be inherited forever."

Tao Xiaoman, who was on the side, saw Xi Qing's anxious appearance of scratching his ears and cheeks, and couldn't help but give him a name.

"Dragon and phoenix? Chinese Dragon and Phoenix Museum? It's not too delicious, so it's better to call it the Dragon and Phoenix Chengrui Museum. ”

Xi Qing read it out in his mouth, feeling that it was still full of smoothness, he didn't care much about the name, and said into the microphone at the moment: "Okay, let's call it Longfeng Chengrui Museum, it's best to add the word Chinese, if not, don't force it, then call it Longfeng Chengrui Museum......"

"Okay, Xi Qing don't worry, this matter will have a result in three or five days, I'll call you later......"

After putting down the phone call to Xiaobai, Xi Qing originally wanted to call Professor Youen, but after thinking about it, he couldn't seem too anxious about this matter, the meaning of strange goods is that no one has me, and others can only offer a high price if they ask for themselves.

After finishing these things, Xi Qing and Tao Xiaoman went to the restaurant downstairs to enjoy a big meal for two.

……

"Xi Qing, you're late, it's okay, the auction hasn't started yet, let's go in quickly......"

At 9 o'clock the next morning, Xi Qing took Tao Xiaoman to the venue where the special auction of Chinese art was held in Paris.

Wu Lisa has been waiting at the door for more than half an hour, and when she saw Xi Qing, she grabbed him and walked inside, and gave him a number plate, which was applied for by Xi Qing in advance, and a deposit of 100,000 euros had to be paid in advance for this auction number, of course, this deposit was refundable at the end of the auction.

"What's the hurry, we didn't plan to make a move anyway, and it's no ...... if we're late."

Since the matter of the museum was finalized yesterday, Xi Qing was a little excited, and he did some exercise with Tao Xiaoman in the evening, uh, the intensity and difficulty of the action were relatively large, so he got up late this morning, if it weren't for Tao Xiaoman's desire to see the auction of cultural relics, Xi Qing wouldn't want to come.

"Huh? Sister Lisa, what's wrong with you? ”

After Xi Qing said this, she saw that Wu Lisa's face was a little wrong, and she couldn't help asking.

"Alas, brother, yesterday I saw the waist knife of the "Qianlong Year System", I felt like the saber of Emperor Qianlong, and I took a picture of it......"

At this auction, Lisa went everywhere to persuade some domestic buyers not to make a move, not to be caught in the auction house and the owner's ball technique, but when she came to auction, she auctioned an object, and her face was a little embarrassed.

Xi Qing smiled and shook his head, he could understand the feeling of the person who collected a certain object when he saw the real thing, and he didn't say much, just asked, "How much did you take it?" ”

Seeing that Xi Qing didn't blame him, Wu Lisha's face relaxed a little, and said: "The starting price is 6,000 euros, but the price I took is 220,000 euros, plus the handling fee, if you convert it into RMB, it will cost about 2.6 million RMB in total......

"The sword collection is not very popular, even if you raise the price, it doesn't matter, I believe that the goal of international speculators is not on this, Sister Lisa, it's okay......"

Xi Qing comforted Wu Lisha, what he said was right, the sword collection is relatively unpopular, and generally no one will deliberately raise the price, because there are few people who collect this thing, and if it is carried over, it will be smashed in the hand.

The three of them spoke, passed the verification at the entrance of the auction hall, and entered the auction hall.

Unlike the blonde foreigners he saw outside, as soon as he walked into the hall, Xi Qing saw many black-haired and yellow-skinned faces, and looked around, among the more than 100 people in this auction hall, there were seventy or eighty people who were Asian or Chinese.

However, most of those people are forty or fifty years old, after seeing Xi Qing and Tao Xiaoman, their eyes are on them for a while, such an international auction, few young people like Xi Qing participate, unless they are entrusted by some invisible rich people who don't want to show their heads to participate in the auction.

As for Wu Lisa, these people are more familiar, and in recent years, she can often be seen at this kind of international auction, and when she walks to her seat, someone greets Wu Lisha from time to time.

Of course, some people pulled Wu Lisa to the side to ask about Xi Qing's origin, and Wu Lisa said vaguely. (To be continued.) )
