Chapter 289 Begins to Operate

"I briefly analyzed the data from the auction company's large number of auctions, and if you look at the small print "Funny Actor" with a signature and plate number, the estimate is $5,000-7,000, and the price is $6,250. The www.biquge.info"Funny Actor" in this exhibition is a signed and unnumbered edition. The signed version of the same "Dwarf Dancer" was estimated at auction for $4,000-6,000 and finally sold for $3,750, about euros, which is lower than the estimate.

"The Waiting was $3,500 for a signed and numbered auction, $295 for an unsigned and numbered one on Amazon, and one of the 'Waitings' in this exhibition is signed and unnumbered. In 2014, a limited edition of "Mother and Son" was estimated at 20,000 euros, but unfortunately it was unsold. ”

Wang Jiansen said: "I put out uncalm speculation, and calculate the price according to the normal auction price of about 3,000-5,500 euros with signatures and edition numbers, and calculate all prints according to the price with signatures and edition numbers, that is, 198,000 euros." ”

"In the same way, you will be given 120,000 euros for all 35 pieces of pottery, but only 4.2 million euros. You blow a billion euros of works, I wonder how it is calculated? ”

"Don't call me hypocritical! I specifically asked Bai Hua to check the quotations of two art companies, and the Guastala Art Studio gave me an ideal price, they have 15 Picasso works, and it costs 12,000 euros to rent for 2 months, of course, this is only the rent, not including shipping and insurance. ”

At the same time, they also clearly marked on the front page of their official website that they had rented 15 Picasso works to an art museum in Beijing for exhibition.

"The Pesaro official website is under maintenance, but I still have a schedule of all its works and rental fees. The number of pottery works in this exhibition is 40 pieces, and the insurance cost is 750,000 euros, so it can be seen that the estimated value of these 40 pieces of pottery is about 750,000 euros. ”

"All the prints are rented from two companies that specialize in the so-called Picasso works, the Guastala Moderne Art Studio, which offers 15 pieces. Pesaro, 21 pieces offered. All the pottery is also rented from one of the companies, with Pesaro offering 40 pieces. All photographs are rented from two photographer archives. Of the 89 pieces advertised, only 5 so-called "authentic originals" remain, or are they all fake paintings? ”

Wu Tianyuan is also drunk, the dignified chairman of Wanda, how can he expose people's old secrets like this? Shaking his head helplessly, he said, "I know why they didn't invite me to go!" ”

"They dare!" Wang Jiansen laughed angrily: "If you don't say it, you will definitely not be able to invite this great god, if you really went, you would have scolded your mother on the spot!" ”

Wu Tianyuan poured a full cup of tea for Wang Jiansen to let him dissipate his anger, too, let the richest man look forward to it for a long time, but it turned out to be fake paintings and rented things? Who doesn't get angry?

"But on the matter, a series of propaganda techniques are in place, otherwise you wouldn't have come over to visit, brother, wouldn't you?"

Wu Tianyuan said with a smile: "For a senior expert like you, you can see the doorway, but who knows the ordinary people?" I was already excited to see so many masterpieces at once! ”

"I'm most angry when it comes to this! If you visit for free, it will enrich the artistic life of the public and improve the taste. They sell one ticket for one hundred and two! More expensive than the Forbidden City and us! It's a day! ”

"Picasso Museum of Barcelona, admission 11 euros, about 80 yuan, permanent 4,251 Picasso original exhibits. The Picasso Museum in Paris, the normal admission fee is 12.5 euros, about 91 yuan, and there are now 4,398 original Picasso works on display. The Centre Pompidou, with 301 original Picasso exhibits, is 14 euros, about 102 yuan. In addition, thousands of original works by other masters can be seen. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, which has 1,231 original works by Picasso, has a museum admission fee of $22, and can also see tens of thousands of fine works of art from all continents. ”

"Isn't this a blatant pit of your own people? Want to earn back your rental through tickets? ”

"Haven't we domestic professionals seen foreign exhibitions? Where is the professional ethics of the exhibition platform you give such water? If there is such a specious exhibition in Europe and the United States, I believe that no famous critic or famous curator would dare to stand on the platform, otherwise it will definitely be a scandal in the industry! ”

"And those so-called famous curators, famous critics, and famous curators who stood on the platform for the opening ceremony, do you not even have a basic judgment on the standard of this exhibition?"

"Hundreds of media are following the coaxing, and they don't have any professional knowledge and professional ethics? Or are you art-illiterate? was fooled by others, and followed the blind coaxing, and dared to send the full text after taking a red envelope for Zhang's unreliable press release? They don't deserve to be called a media, they are an advertising agency at best! ”

"It's been a long time since I've been so angry, it's ......"

Wu Tianyuan poured tea for Wang Jiansen again and comforted: "My brother is angry because he really likes art and doesn't want them to be so commercialized, right?" ”

"As the old saying goes, knives can be used to kill people, but they can also save people! We will also learn from their propaganda methods in the future, which is a mature business model. However, we have a bottom line of principles, one is that every work is a good work of art, and it is a classic that can resonate with the public. The second is that we don't make money from tickets, all the exhibits are owned by ourselves, and Tianyuan can't afford to lose that person! ”

"Hey, don't talk about it, I was originally looking for you to discuss the god-making plan today, but I complained for a long time."

Wang Jiansen smiled and took out a piece of information, handed it to Wu Tianyuan and said: "This is our recent achievement, Lin Fengmian has collected 580 pieces through various channels, more than 300 large paintings, and more than 200 small paintings. Kazuo Whitehair has collected more than 300 through your connections in Japan, and many of them are still alive, so I will collect them slowly. ”

As for Luo Zhongli, Zhang Yunfei, and Luo Meng, they are all in their prime, and their works are not yet the most mature stage. Especially the two little guys, in their early thirties, when they first started creating, you see......"

Wu Tianyuan nodded with satisfaction and said: "The progress is good, in two days, I will convene a meeting of all the seeds of the god-making plan, and they will all come at that time, and everyone will meet together." As for the style of the living artist? It mainly depends on themselves, seeking innovation and change in the field they are best at, and they must come out of their own characteristics! ”

"This can't be rushed, a master needs at least twenty years of accumulation, even if we add fuel to the fire, it will take a long time for the public to accept it. However, with the fate of heaven and your fame, plus the business operation of a few of us, it can be much faster. ”

Wu Tianyuan sent Wang Jiansen away, and now several of them have slowly shifted their focus to the god-making plan, the company has matured, and there are professionals to worry about. They prefer what they do now, and their hobbies are combined with love for national culture, and they are full of passion.

"Help me inform the new F4 so they can meet at the museum the day after tomorrow!" (To be continued.) )
