Chapter 230: Sunflowers are beckoning

"This is impossible, this is impossible, how can these people's works fall into the hands of art dealers, this is impossible, they should be in museums, art galleries, it is impossible for us to buy them." Looking at the several lists in his hand, comparing his name list, and carefully comparing seven or eight times, he really couldn't suppress his joy and shouted loudly.

The people in the room were frightened by his shouting, Gao Hongsheng was so out of shape today, everyone had never seen him like this, but then they saw a madman.

This crazy and hurriedly pushed the things on the table aside, and then in a panic took out a book from a pile of albums that no one else was allowed to look at, and then shouted at Lin Daiyu: "Lin Daiyu, come here, help me see, what have you bought, can you mark it in this book, let's compare it and see if it is the real work." ”

Looking at Gao Hongsheng, who was red-eyed, Lin Daiyu hurriedly ran over, looked at the album in his hand, reached out and grabbed it, thought about it carefully, and then grabbed the colored pens that he had made all over the table, flipped through the pages one by one, and occasionally stopped to sit on a mark on the book brow, and when he saw the last page, he looked at it carefully, nodded affirmatively: "Five of the albums in this album are in the list of purchases this time, and there are several other albums that have no income." ”

Gao Hongsheng carried a heart when she marked it, and when she said these words, he felt a little overwhelmed by happiness, God! It was Monet's oil album, it was an impressionist master.

From the point of view of the emergence and development of Impressionism, the founder should be Manet, but the real full realization of Impressionist ideas and techniques, and consistent first recommendation Monet, he dedicated his life's energy to Impressionism, which had an important impact on the Western painting world, is the unremitting efforts of a group of artists led by him, breaking through the conservative ideas of the previous academic school, greatly impacting the official art that occupied the dominant position in the Western painting world in the second half of the 19th century, thus opening a new page in the history of Western modern painting, and making important contributions. It has left a valuable artistic wealth for future generations.

It should be said that Monet was the first of the Impressionist painters to achieve success, although the later art schools such as Fauvism, Cubism, and Surrealism did not follow some of the principles established by Impressionism, but the artists who founded these schools all drew nourishment from Impressionism.

Lin Daiyu marked on the album the "poplar group paintings" he painted between one and one to one or two years, one of which and two of the haystacks, as well as two of his early works, as for the other few Gao Hongsheng doesn't even care, he just wants to compare the real and fake now, if one of them is true, then his investment will all come back.

Holding the album with trembling hands, observing the signature little by little with a magnifying glass, checking every subtlety, the room full of people looked at the busy two people with bated breath, it was really their actions too strange, wasn't it just some oil paintings?

After several confirmations, Lin Daiyu nodded affirmatively at Gao Hongsheng, and saw Gao Hongsheng's face smiling like a flower, the five Monet paintings are not wrong at all, they are indeed his masterpieces, and the other few Gao Hongsheng have no information and are not sure, but it should not be wrong to check the signature, no one is bored to copy his works in this era, only after his paintings are collected by various art palaces in later generations, there are fakes flowing out.

It's worth it, a genuine Monet can recoup all the investment, the rest is earned, and it doesn't matter if the other paintings are real or not.

"How much did you buy these paintings?" Gao Hongsheng asked casually.

"Are you talking about his paintings?" Lin Daiyu pointed to Monet's haystack and asked.

"Yes, it's Monet's painting, how much did you buy it?"

"Him! It was the more expensive of these painters, averaging about 5,000 francs. ”

"How much?" Gao Hongsheng's voice has changed his tone a little, this price is really beyond his expectations, you must know that Monet's paintings will often be millions or tens of millions of dollars in later generations.

"Five thousand francs, is it expensive?" Lin Daiyu asked with some concern.

"It's not expensive, it's not expensive, fifty thousand francs is not expensive, how many you want, tomorrow I'll give you another hundred thousand pounds, keep buying, buying. Ha ha. Gao Hongsheng smiled a little maniacally, it was too cheap, it was simply the price of cabbage.

"Don't you look at the other works? For example, Van Gogh that you highlighted, I also acquired five of them, but I can't be sure if they are his paintings, not in the album, it is likely to be his early works, not included in the album, but the signature is very similar. Lin Daiyu looked at Gao Hongsheng, who was a little crazy, and hurriedly pushed Van Gogh out.

"Van Gogh, Van Gogh, you wait, you said you received his early works, wait, I seem to remember something? Wait, let me think. Gao Hongsheng felt as if he was missing something, he didn't expect to collect Van Gogh's works at all, but Lin Daiyu reminded him that it was really possible to acquire his works now.

Van Gogh committed suicide on July 29, 100, and it is a pity that he suffered from schizophrenia caused by the syphilis virus.

When it comes to Van Gogh's short life, people can only use the taste of sighs to describe this great painter, a life of poverty, his works have not been accepted by people, as a painter who sold only one painting in his life, it was the attitude of the people at that time, and after the "Red Vineyard" was sold for four hundred francs, only half a year the great painter ended his life with his own hands.

It is often said that the works of a living painter are not worth much, and if this sentence is for Van Gogh, it is very apt, a painter who only sold one work for 400 francs in his lifetime, in later generations his painting "Portrait of Dr. Gachet" ranked second in the world's top ten sky-high paintings, second only to Picasso's "Boy with a Pipe", and his famous "Sunflowers" in the Van Gogh Museum collection is as high as 100 million pounds.

However, Van Gogh has only been dead for seven years now, and many of his paintings have not yet been collected by museums, especially the "Sunflowers" in the collection of the National Gallery in London, which is the fourth in his series of paintings "Sunflowers", which was purchased from his family in 1924.

Gao Hongsheng seemed to see that Van Gogh's world-famous painting "Sunflowers" was beckoning to him, and he only needed to hook it lightly, and the painting was in his hands.

O Van Gogh! If he had bought that "Sunflower" in the hands of his family, it would have been 100 million pounds, God! What else is worth the risk he had, 100 million pounds, it's a crazy number to think about.

Who else is alive, and those painters are alive, Monet is alive, Van Gogh has just died, and his paintings should still have some circulation, Miller, wait, there is another person alive, Gauguin, that madman.

Gao Hongsheng was in the local area, combing those famous painters of the 19th century little by little, passing them through the sieve one by one, and gradually his face showed a surprised expression, okay! There are still many living painters in this world, and they are their own money printing machines.

Monet, Monet, you run there, tomorrow, no, tomorrow there will be a painting, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow to visit Monet, now you seem to be painting some kind of church, that's mine, and the water lilies you painted in the future are also mine.

And Van Gogh, your sunflowers are mine, 100 million pounds, 100 million.

Gao Hongsheng's eyes are full of little stars, and there are countless amounts of money beckoning to him, these worlds are so beautiful, those painters are too sad, but isn't this his chance?
