Chapter Seventy-One: The Feast (Part II)
Wang Tianyu took out his mobile phone and saw that the name on the caller ID was Nina, and he wondered why Nina called him at this time, it stands to reason that it should be the middle of the night on Wall Street now. Maybe there was something urgent, Wang Tianyu hesitated for a moment and connected the phone.
"Hey, Nina, what's the matter?" Wang Tianyu asked.
"Wang Tianyu, it's too embarrassing for your grandfather not to send me an invitation on his birthday! Do you think of me as a friend? Nina on the other end of the phone scolded Wang Tianyu.
"I know that your eldest lady is busy, so I don't dare to disturb." Wang Tianyu said with a smile.
"Who said that? I'm at the door of the Shangri-La Hotel in Hong Kong right now, and those security guards say I don't have an invitation and won't let me in. Nina huffed and hung up the phone.
"Concubine Fei, go downstairs and pick up Nina!" Wang Tianyu said to Concubine Ling Fei behind him.
"Okay." Concubine Ling Fei replied.
Not long after, Concubine Ling Fei walked into the hall with a Western woman, which immediately attracted the attention of countless people. The Western woman's crystal purple eyes are big and bright, with a resolute and straight nose bridge, and she has both the beauty of a woman and a bit of heroism that only men have; The slightly thin and soft cherry lips show an almost transparent ruby red, which is delicate at any time as if it can make people intoxicated at a glance; A honey-blond curly hair as soft as water, slanted down like a waterfall, just right to spread on the slightly sharpened fragrant shoulders, like a noble princess, exuding a charming noble temperament.
Nina ignored the eyes of everyone in the hall at the moment, came to Wang Tianyu, and while talking, she bowed down and hugged Wang Tianyu affectionately and said, "Oh, dear Wang Tianyu, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you miss me?" ”
Seeing that countless young boys and brothers were heartbroken, those daughters and celebrities all looked at Nina with hostile eyes. And Wang Tianyu was stunned by Nina's actions and words, his face was full of doubts, and he didn't know which one Nina was singing? In Wang Tianyu's impression, Nina should not think like this, but should be the kind of strong woman with a serious and arrogant face.
Wang Tianyu did not answer Nina's question, but changed the topic and said, "Hehe, it is an honor for Miss Nina to be able to come to my grandfather's birthday party. ”
Nina and Wang Tianyu hugged and quickly separated, and then Nina glanced at Meng Lina defiantly. Meng Lina has a relatively timid personality, and after seeing Nina's provocative gaze, she lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Nina's gaze. When Nina saw Meng Lina's expression, a triumphant smile appeared on her face.
After Nina knew what Wang Tianyu did in Hong Kong, not only did she not give up the idea of taking Wang Tianyu for her own use, but that thought became even stronger. Perhaps after seeing Wang Tianyu's arrogance, Nina felt that conquering Wang Tianyu would have a greater sense of accomplishment, and the more difficult it was to tame, the more she had to tame. Therefore, Nina felt that maybe Wang Bonian's birthday was an opportunity, an opportunity to subdue Wang Tianyu, so she came to Hong Kong.
Wang Bonian saw that Nina was Wang Tianyu's friend and should always say hello, so he came to Wang Tianyu's side.
Wang Tianyu saw Wang Bonian coming, so he smiled at Wang Bonian and said, "Grandpa, I'll introduce you to a friend." ”
The big people beside Wang Tianyu also listened attentively one by one, which made Wang Tianyu attach so much importance to solemnity, and his natural identity was extraordinary.
"She's my friend on Wall Street, Nina Rothschild from Europe." Wang Tianyu pointed to Nina and introduced to Wang Bonian.
After listening to Wang Tianyu's words, Wang Bonian was very shocked in his heart, Wang Tianyu's meaning was naturally very obvious, Nina Rothschild from Europe? Then Nina is a member of the very mysterious and powerful Rothschild family in Europe.
The big names around Wang Tianyu also looked at Nina with shocked expressions on their faces. The Rothschilds, these people have naturally heard of it, their wealth is very amazing in the eyes of China, but compared with the Rothschilds, it is simply a world of difference, there is no comparison at all, and there is no qualification to compare.
Naturally, they did not have the opportunity to meet any Rothschilds, because even in Europe, Rothschilds are very low-key, rarely appear in the media and in public, and it is naturally difficult to meet them. Now the Rothschild family has appeared at Wang Bonian's banquet, which in Hong Kong, even in China, I have basically never heard of the Rothschild family to see anyone's banquet, which is definitely a very glorious thing for Wang Bonian.
Obviously, the relationship between Wang Tianyu and Nina is very good, just look at Nina's enthusiasm when she sees Wang Tianyu, so does Wang Tianyu have anything to do with the Rothschilds? If anything, then Wang Tianyu is simply terrifying. How did they know that Wang Tianyu and Nina were just ordinary friends, Wang Tianyu was just taking advantage of the situation, to put it mildly, it was a fox and a fake tiger, and Wang Tianyu's purpose in doing this was just to pave the way for the Wang family.
Wang Bonian was also very excited in his heart, but he still greeted Nina with a relatively calm face: "Miss Nina, hello, I am Wang Tianyu's grandfather, and I am honored for you to be able to attend Wang's birthday banquet." ”
"Grandpa Wang, you're polite, Wang Tianyu and I are very good friends, and maybe we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future." Nina said very elegantly and decently.
After listening to Nina's words, everyone looked at Wang Tianyu with a slightly different gaze, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that they were really old, and the rise of the Wang family was already unstoppable. At the same time, he was thinking about how to cooperate with the Wang family to get a little more benefits.
After listening to Nina's words, Wang Bonian was very happy, and he couldn't close his smile.
"By the way, Grandpa Wang, I came in a hurry, and I didn't bring any gifts, I knew that you like calligraphy and painting, so I took a pair of Chinese calligraphy and paintings, I hope Grandpa Wang can like it." As she spoke, Nina took out a pair of calligraphy and paintings and handed them to Wang Bonian.
"It's good to come, and what kind of gifts do you bring?" Wang Bonian smiled politely, but still took the painting in Nina's hand.
Then people opened the painting, and other people also gathered around, and these older generations have a hobby of collecting art, and they still have a certain level of appreciation of art. Since it was given by Nina, they were naturally very curious and wanted to see what kind of calligraphy and painting it was.
When the painting was opened, everyone's eyes glowed green, like a wolf seeing a sheep. They recognized this painting just by looking at it, because this painting is so famous and impresses them too deeply, this painting is Huang Tingjian's "Pillar Inscription".
Huang Tingjian was a poet, lyricist, and calligrapher in the Northern Song Dynasty. Its large-character line book is concise and powerful, unique in structure, is an outstanding representative of the Northern Song Dynasty calligraphy, and Su Shi, Mi Fu, Cai Xiang and called "Song four". The "Pillar Inscription" is the most important calligraphy treasure that he scattered among the people. Transcribing the "Pillar Inscription" written by Wei Zheng, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, which he most admired, this volume is 8.24 meters long, with a total of 82 lines and 407 characters, but with the inscriptions of the past dynasties, the total length is nearly 15 meters.
"Pillar Inscription" was collected by Wang Houzhi and Southern Song Dynasty Minister Jia Nidao in the Song Dynasty, and was one of the "Huang Tingjian Shuangbi" collected by Jia Nidao; In the Ming Dynasty, it was collected by the famous collector Xiang Yuanbian, and was recorded in the "Authentic Diary" of the connoisseur Zhang Chou in the Ming Dynasty. In the Qing Dynasty, it was collected by famous collectors such as Xiang Yuan, Wu Yuanhui, Luo Tianchi, etc., and then flowed into Japan from GD, where it was collected by a neighboring museum in Japan, and was later purchased by a Taiwanese collector. Finally, after a lapse of 915, he appeared in BJ. And on June 3, 2010, it was auctioned out of the Chinese art transaction record - 390 million yuan, plus 12% commission, the total transaction price of 436.8 million yuan, the world record of Chinese art auction was also rewritten, at that time it was a sensation in the entire Chinese collecting circle, they these big people naturally knew about it, but since then there has been no news of this painting. Now after so many years, its value has far surpassed that of the past, and even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it, it is definitely priceless!
"Miss Nina, this gift is so ...... It's too valuable, how can I take it? Wang Bonian looked at the painting and said with a reluctant look, but as soon as he finished speaking, he began to regret it again, he also knew that Westerners have always been very direct, in case Nina really took back the painting, he would have no place to cry.
"Hehe, it's hard to buy a good heart, Grandpa Wang, you can accept it! I don't know much art, and it's a terrible thing to stay with me. Nina said with a smile.
"Hehe, then I'll take it." Wang Bonian did not refrain at this moment, but said with a smile on his face.
"I wonder what gifts the little princess of the Rockefeller family has prepared?" At this moment, Nina looked at Meng Lina and asked defiantly.
