Chapter 491 - Drop Money at a Touch
Two days after Fang Yi talked about this, Li Lin came over to ask Fang Yi this question, and he didn't mean anything at all, the phone call came straight to the point, and it was very refreshing.
"Are you saying this thing is reliable?" Li Lin said to Fang Yi what Zhang Xu discussed with him, and then asked directly to Fang Yi on the other end of the phone.
Fang Yi smiled and said: "What's unreliable, if the little devil sells this thing, you don't have to find someone to identify it, just use the polarizer and then adjust it, you can see the name on the bottom of the pigment with a little bit of orange and red, but you have to adjust the color of the polarization."
"How much can I buy?" Li Lin asked Fang Yi again.
"Just that painting, it is estimated that the maximum is a little more than 100,000 US dollars, why can't you and Zhang Xu buy it?" Fang Yi smiled at the earpiece and asked.
Li Lin listened to it and laughed: "The first time I engaged in speculation, I didn't have any bottom in my heart!" After a pause, he said: "No matter, anyway, if you say you can buy it, you can buy it, this kind of business is done so many times a year, I just can't do it if I don't want to!" No wonder I heard Zhang Xu and Zhu Zheng say that you are a cash cow, and you will drop money when you touch it. And so it looks! ”。
"You think it's soy milk in the morning! This may not happen once in more than ten years. If it was really Vermeer's own work, I would have kept it myself," Fang Yi said with a smile: "It's your turn?!" ”。
"It doesn't matter if it's on the wheel, anyway, thank you this time," Li Lin said with a smile. For Fang Yi to tell Zhang Xu about this, and Zhang Xu was willing to bring himself. Li Lin was already very grateful in his heart, and there was no need to say anything else. Now Li Lin understands why Zhang Xu's vision of what paintings he buys makes people look so poisonous. Most of them always appreciate in value, and a third of the paintings can be doubled or tripled. It's not that Zhang Xu's vision is poisonous, but the friends he knows are too good, and sometimes he can't get rich if he has these friends!
Fang Yi listened and said, "It's okay, by the way, I won't go to your company when it opens!" ”。
"If you don't come to a small broken company, you won't come! What do you say about this, but if people don't come, you can have a red envelope! Li Linle said. Li Lin thought about it for a while, and finally accepted An Xiaojun's suggestion. I got a job as a general agent in Jiangnan, and now I have rented an office in the electronic street of Shicheng, although the stall is not big. However, it has been rolled out in earnest. It's going to open in a few days.
"That's for sure!" Fang Yi said with a smile: "Let Zhang Xu bring it over!" Anyway, I can give as much as he wants, and I don't think too much! ”。
The two of them hung up the phone after talking like this for a while, and Fang Yi put down the phone and concentrated on painting his own works.
Here, first of all, Nick's gang of Versailles appraisers published their results in the magazine. Supporting Fang Yi's "Abundance" is the real work. Next, a German Rubens research expert also expressed his opinion, supporting Fang Yi's work as the key to authenticity.
In this way, the whole limelight in the news has suddenly changed, and some magazines are still supporting the Japan Pavilion as a genuine work in the last issue, and now this issue has changed its tone and supported the one in Fang Yi's hand. Sofoube's findings were supported by many gunmen and considered by the majority of people to be accurate, but now the opinion in the magazine has become half to half.
It's just that this half-to-half result only lasted for less than a week. As Hashimoto Mitsumichi published his opinion in a Japanese magazine, he supported Fang Yishou's work as authentic. Even the Japanese themselves have chosen to admit that they are fakes! So what else is there to say? The limelight immediately became one-sided. As more and more people support Fang Yi's works as authentic, Sofby's life is getting more and more difficult.
Now Wright is sitting at his desk, no longer as calm as before, with a slight bloodshot in his eyes looking at the magazine in front of him, and the old man Jill who said to Wright in front of him that he insisted that his identification result is right is now sitting alone in the chair opposite Wright's table.
This time the company is in trouble! Not only the two people sitting facing each other know, but even the people who sweep the toilet in the company know the trouble that the company is facing now.
"Mr. Jill, what do you think we should do this time?" Rytze tapped the magazine in his hand and said as he looked at the old thing opposite.
Seeing the hatred in Wright's heart, if it weren't for the confidence in the appraisal results that this old man had expressed, why would he have survived to this day. And at the request of the board of directors, the company spent a lot of money! Some of this money was spent on the gunners, and now it seems that it is better not to spend it.
"Mr. Wright, I said at the beginning that if Fang Yi's hand is genuine, then the basis for judging the style of works in this period will change radically, and this is the case now!" Jill, the old man, said to Wright.
Now that the matter has come out, the company definitely needs a black pot! Judging from the old man's years of experience in corporate politics, the general manager of the New York line, who is now sitting opposite him, feels that he is the best choice! To have a position, to have a weight! Guan Jian pushed him out and clicked, and the public could immediately see the company's full sincerity at first glance.
As for Jill herself? It's just an appraiser, even if it is pushed out without a name and surname, it can't arouse much interest from the outside. And he is also a person who has made great achievements in his own work, and he believes that the company is still inseparable from him for the time being, as for the future waiting for the limelight to pass, then he is slowly drawing, in short, he will take himself out of this matter first.
In Jill's opinion, this matter is really none of his business, and there is a right and wrong in this profession, and I have not heard of anyone who can guarantee that there will be no mistakes in his life. Moreover, I have told Mr. General Manager about this possibility in front of many people, and this decision is decided by the person in front of me, and it is not something that I can influence as a small chief appraiser.
Sometimes it's a good thing to have a small hat on your head! Now Jill feels that her profession is not as high as the one in front of her, and she is really a little lucky.
Wright listened to Jill. couldn't help but tighten his face, and he tapped his fingers on the table, and after thinking for two or three minutes. In retrospect, it seems like that.
Thinking of this, Wright suddenly became happy, and his face began to show his usual smile after sweeping the gloom just now. However, the smile now is matched with slightly red eyes, which obviously makes the old man Jill on the other side feel furious.
"Well, I remember, then you go back," Wright said in a soft tone to Jill. After speaking, he looked at Lao Dongzi who got up from his chair, walked out of his office, and then closed the door.
Watch as Jill disappears into the doorway. Wright leaned his head back in his chair and raised his hands to rub his face. Wright himself knew that he would not be able to get out this time no matter what. The countdown to the position under the ass is now in the driver's seat, as for when the board will fire him. Then it depends on when these old guys come out. Being swept out of the house is a certainty, and that's just a matter of the past few days!
But! Wright thought that he had made up his mind for this black pot, but he couldn't carry this matter alone, shouldn't he find a punching bag? And in my own opinion, this mistake is not all my own. The conclusion given by the appraisal side is wrong. How can you blame yourself completely!
Thinking of this, I immediately chose the most satisfactory punching bag, and found out who wouldn't be angry, the board of directors found themselves, then they also found others!
Wright reached out and dialed the phone on the table, and when the phone rang, he opened his mouth and said, "Tell Jill to go to the finance room to get what he deserves, and he won't use it in the afternoon!" ”。
After speaking, he didn't listen to the other party's answer, and hung up the phone directly. Then he shook the back of his chair and let out a long breath and said, "Humph! Now I'm still the general manager of New York! ”。
Soon the New York office employees realized this. Even if they didn't realize it, when they saw Jill being escorted out of the company by security guards with cardboard boxes in both hands. You should also know that at this time, in order to keep your job, it is better to provoke the general manager less.
Wright, who fired Jill, did not stay in the company for more than a week, and when Rubens's connoisseur authority was too much in favor of Fang Yi's authenticity, Wright also walked out of the company's door with the cardboard box in his hand like Jill.
Wright pushed open the door and walked down the steps, subconsciously turned his head, and glanced at the office building behind him, almost twelve years, he entered Sofby from a kid who had just graduated from school, until he became the general manager of Sofby's New York, and then put all the belongings in the carton he was holding, for a while Wright didn't know what to say, which can be described in one sentence: Don't have a taste in my heart!
"Hey, Wright!".
Wright didn't expect someone to call him, turned his head and looked around, and found a black Bentley parked on the side of the road, and the person who spoke to him was now standing at the door of the car, holding the car in one hand and rolling the cigar in his hand with the other, not Lawrence, the owner of Lawrence Gallery? Who is Zou!
"What? Come early in the morning to see my jokes? Wright walked in front of Zou Heming with the cardboard box.
Zou Heming smiled, took out a cigar from his pocket, and gestured to Wright: "Look at your jokes? If I have this time, I might as well sleep a little longer with the little girl in my arms, are you more beautiful than a supermodel when you hold a cardboard box? ”。
Wright directly put the cardboard box in his hand on the roof of the car, took the cigar in Zou Heming's hand and took a big puff: "Since you're not here to make fun of me, then send me home by the way!" ”。
"I don't even have a car, if I don't come, you can only take a taxi back?" Zou Heming said jokingly.
"My previous car was owned by the company! Now that I've been swept out of the door, naturally there is no car," Wright said, puffing out a puff of smoke from his mouth.
"Get in the car!" Zou Heming waved his hand at Wright after speaking: "I have something to do, let's get in the car and talk!" After saying that, he was the first to get into the car.
Wright smiled, and couldn't help but feel relieved that he didn't have to think about what company to submit his resume to any other company. (To be continued......)
