Chapter 947: Private Auction (1)
"Fu Lao, Mia was accidentally met by Brother He on a street when he traveled to Rome, and she looked very pitiful at the time, so Brother He took her in, and then learned that her mother left shortly after she was born, and her father was killed by the gangsters not long ago because of his gambling debts to the gangsters, so he has been taking this little girl with him, ready to adopt her."
Chen Yi told Fu Lao after the revised process, "Speaking of this matter, I still need your help, I know very few people in Italy, so I expect you to complete this adoption procedure." ”
Fu Lao smiled and shook his head, "Boy Chen, don't wear a top hat for me, just the people you know in Italy these days, as long as you need help with something, they can't wait to rush to the door one by one, and hand over He Wenzhi's passport and the little girl's information to me in a while, and I'll find someone to do it." ”
"Hey, thank you for getting old." Chen Yi smiled.
"Xie doesn't need it, seeing that this little girl already regards He Wenzhi as a relative, but he travels from time to time, this little girl still can't get a proper settlement." Fu Lao looked at Mia, who had been staying by He Wenzhi's side, and then said with some worry.
Although he believed in He Wenzhi's character, he was still a little unsure whether he could take care of this little girl.
"You can rest assured, after completing the adoption procedures, Brother He will go back to Shudu and will not travel around anymore, I believe he will definitely take care of Mia." Chen Yi explained to Fu Lao with a smile that he agreed with Fu Lao's responsible attitude.
Fu Lao nodded. That's when I didn't have to worry about it. "I'll get the formalities done soon."
Subsequently. Fu Lao and others had some exchanges with He Wenzhi, and during the exchanges, Fu Lao knew He Wenzhi's profound painting skills, and couldn't help but invite He Wenzhi to have time to go to the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Tianjing for further study and exchanges.
In this regard, He Wenzhi naturally agreed, and in the ten years after his wife's death, he basically did not come into contact with new painting knowledge, but consolidated and improved the knowledge he had learned before. And he is now traveling abroad so that he can learn more about the culture and knowledge.
Everyone chatted for more than an hour, and when they left the room, Fu Lao seemed to think of something, and said to Chen Yi: "By the way, Xiaoyi, I received a call from Paul today, saying that there will be a private auction in Rome in two days, and basically the participants are famous people in Italy, and I heard that it is at this auction." There will also be a statue carved by Michelangelo, and he asks if you would like to go. ”
"Old Fu. Aren't you going? Hearing the statue of Michelangelo, Chen Yi's eyes lit up, and then he asked Fu Lao and the others suspiciously.
Fu Lao smiled and shook his head, "We old men won't go, this private auction can also be called an aristocratic auction, most of the lots are worth tens of millions of yuan, we went to Chun Hao to join in the fun." ”
"Then why did you let me go?" Chen Yi said helplessly.
"Because you have a lot of money." Fu Lao laughed out loud, and the people next to him couldn't help laughing.
A few black lines suddenly appeared on Chen Yi's forehead, "Qian Duo seems to be a mistake." ”
"If you go, give me a word, and I'll inform Paul to leave a place for you, it seems that in addition to Western art, there will be some Chinese antiques in this auction." Fu Lao went on to say that they naturally hoped that Chen Yi would buy some precious Chinese or Western art and put them in domestic museums, which would be beneficial and harmless.
Chen Yi nodded, "Go, why don't you go, and see what precious things will be in this auction." ”
"Well, I'll let Paul know in a moment." Fu Lao nodded and smiled, and then left the room.
After closing the door, Chen Yi looked at He Wenzhi and asked with a smile, "Brother He, do you want to go, I can ask Dean Paul to leave a place for you." ”
He Wenzhi shook his head suddenly, "Brother Chen, I have a clean breeze on my sleeves, and I don't have much savings at all, so it's better not to participate." ”
"Brother He, I'll introduce you to a way to make money, do you want it?" Hearing He Wenzhi's words, Chen Yi said with a mysterious face.
Seeing Chen Yi's complexion, He Wenzhi's heart tightened, "Cough, I don't do anything about abduction and stealing." ”
Chen Yi was a little amused, "What do you think of me as someone, my wife opened a gallery called Pinyi Gallery, and now it has become a well-known gallery in the country, with branches in several major cities, so I want to take your paintings to the gallery, and then do some publicity, I believe there will be many people to buy them." ”
"Oh, Pinyi Gallery, I know this, you kid probably want to ask me for publicity money." He Wenzhi suddenly realized something, and said half-jokingly.
Chen Yi smiled, "I don't want to pay for publicity, and I don't want your paintings to be shared, but I just ask that your future paintings must be sold through the channels of Guò Gallery, and cannot be sold to others, of course, what you give to others is not among them." Others don't know, but he knows how high the level of this calligraphy and painting is.
"You're asking me to sign a deed of sale." He Wenzhi said helplessly.
"Brother He, think about the publicity channels of our gallery, the value of your paintings will increase, and your own fame will be the same, and you don't need to go all over to sell your paintings." Chen Yi said in seductive words.
He Wenzhi smiled and nodded, "Okay, I agreed, Brother Chen, thank you, I know that you are thinking about me." ”
He also knew the name of Pinyi Gallery through his previous travels, and there were many painters' works, such as Fu Lao from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, as well as some famous painters from Lingzhou and Sujing.
"Hehe, Brother He, it should be, it should be." Chen Yi smiled, He Wenzhi is not famous now, but his paintings are there, I believe that after proper publicity, they will definitely be welcomed by many people, and their galleries will also attract more people.
Afterwards, the two of them chatted for a while, and then He Wenzhi took Mia to the next room to rest.
Chen Yi smiled, sat by the window, looked at the bustling night scene outside, picked up the phone and dialed Shen Yujun's phone.
Since coming to Italy, he has been on the phone with Shen Yujun every day to understand what he misses each other.
On the phone, Chen Yi told Shen Yujun about meeting He Wenzhi today, of course, in order to avoid Shen Yujun's worry, what he said was exactly the same as what Fu Lao said, and after that, he also told Shen Yujun about tricking He Wenzhi into the gallery today, which made Shen Yujun laugh.
In the next two days, Chen Yi did not go to the antique market to pick up leaks, but accompanied Mia with He Wenzhi to buy clothes.
Mia, who was dressed beautifully in a princess dress, seemed to be like a little princess, listening to Chen Yi and He Wenzhi's praise, looking at herself in the mirror, Mia jumped around the room happily.
Seeing this, Chen Yi and He Wenzhi glanced at each other, and both sighed lightly, from here you can know how hard Mia's previous life was, without her mother, even the father who loves gambling may not have taken care of Mia at all.
After buying clothes, Chen Yi and the others also accompanied her to the nearby playground and had a good day.
In these two days, Dean Paul also contacted Chen Yi to determine the auction in two days.
The auction will be held in an ancient castle on the outskirts of Rome, which is now owned by a wealthy Italian man, and this private auction was initiated by him.
During the exchange, Dean Paul confirmed to Chen Yi some of the things to be auctioned at this auction, among which there is a sculpture by Michelangelo mentioned by Fu Lao, in addition, there are some precious Chinese paintings and calligraphy.
Chen Yi smiled, this auction, it is worth looking forward to, although Taobao can find treasures, but some things can not appear in the antique market, just like Michelangelo's works, each piece is extremely precious, once the zuò is made, it will be treasured, very easy to identify, and it is impossible to flow into the antique market.
And in the past two days, Fu Lao also entrusted someone to complete the procedures for He Wenzhi's adoption of Mia, with this procedure, He Wenzhi can bring Mia back to Huaxia and register her household registration in Huaxia.
The auction will take place two days later, on the evening of the third day, and on the morning of the third day, Dean Paul arrives from Florence to attend the auction with Chen Yi.
After returning from Florence, Chen Yi found a diamond fountain pen worth more than 9 million, which is still a commemorative limited edition of the famous fountain pen manufacturer Aurora, which is simply incredible.
"Xiaoyi, is there anything you want to auction at this auction?" After meeting with Chen Yi, Dean Paul asked with a smile.
Chen Yi smiled, "I'm not sure yet, I can only go to the auction to take a look, sometimes under impulse, I will buy anything." ”
"Oh, you're impulsive, I don't believe it." Hearing Chen Yi's words, Dean Paul couldn't help but smile, in his eyes, Chen Yike was a very peaceful person, and he would not become impulsive because of something at all. (To be continued......)
