Chapter 126: Opening Time
Three days later, Tang Yun received a call from Zhou Lao that the "Journey to the Mountains and Streams" had been framed and he could go over to pick up the painting.
"Huh, Xiao Tang, where are you going?"
Tang Yun just walked out of the villa and met Liu Tianxiong driving back.
Tang Yun did not hide it, and told Liu Tianxiong about the picture in the painting as it was.
"What do you say? Is there another painting hidden in that "Picture of Mountains, Rivers, Smoke and Rain"? Or is it Fan Kuan's "Journey to the Mountains and Streams"?"
Liu Tianxiong was stunned in place after hearing this, and looked at Tang Yun dumbfounded: "You didn't lie to me, did you?"
Tang Yun smiled and said: "I can't fool anyone, Uncle Liu, this painting was personally revealed by Zhou Lao, and Teacher Chen Guanxi Chen of the "Treasure Appreciation" column was also present at the time, do you want to believe it, come over with me to see it later?"
"Believe! How can Uncle Liu not believe you?"
Liu Tianxiong came back to his senses, patted Tang Yun on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Are you going to go to Zhou's hometown to pick up paintings now?
"Okay, what's wrong with that, but do you want to drive yourself, or do you want to come with us?"
"It's better to take your car, so it's easier for us to talk!"
On the way to Zhou's house, Liu Tianxiong told Tang Yun that Tianyun Auction Company has been officially registered, and the initial preparations are almost completed.
"Xiao Tang, do you have any suggestions for the specific opening time of our company?"
"When to open, it's up to Uncle Liu to decide, I don't have an opinion!"
Liu Tianxiong thought for a while: "I want to leave the opening time until the days after the end of the public market in Pingshi, what do you think?"
Tang Yun felt a little unclear, so "Yes, yes, it's just Uncle Liu, why did you choose those days?"
Liu Tianxiong explained: "Actually, my plan is like this, my company's first auction is going to be high-grade jadeite as the theme, now don't you already have ice seeds, glass species and that high ice species violet?
The first auction is very important, which is why Liu Tianxiong chose the opening time after the end of the Ping Market Public Sale, and he believes that with Tang Yun's strength, there will be an amazing performance in the Ping Market Public Sale.
Tang Yun couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "Uncle Liu, I'm very stressed when you say this!"
Liu Tianxiong patted Tang Yun on the shoulder and laughed: "Haha, who made you the chairman?
Tang Yun could only smile helplessly.
Liu Tianxiong accounted for 49% of the equity distribution of Tianyun Auction Company, and the remaining 51% was all owned by Tang Yun, so the title of chairman naturally belonged to Tang Yun.
At first, Tang Yun objected to this, in his opinion, whether in terms of work experience or personal ability, Liu Tianxiong should be the most suitable chairman.
Not to mention how many companies Liu Tianxiong has founded over the years, just the start-up capital, if there is no Liu Tianxiong, Tianyun Auction Company would not be able to be founded at all, and the idea of opening an auction company itself was first proposed by Liu Tianxiong, so it is reasonable that Liu Tianxiong should serve as the chairman.
However, Liu Tianxiong does not think so, and he pays more attention to the future development of the company than the present.
In his opinion, Tang Yun is young and talented, especially in gambling stones, he is a master, as long as he is there, at least there is no need to worry about the source of jade; for the auction company, a stable source of channels is very important, which is also the main reason why Liu Tianxiong strongly advocates that Tang Yun should be the chairman of the company.
While the two were talking, the Audi car had already driven downstairs to the Zhou family building.
Tang Yun took Liu Tianxiong to the door of Zhou's house, and was about to knock on the door, Liu Tianxiong suddenly remembered something and said:
"Wait Xiao Tang, I forgot to buy a gift, I can't be rude when I come for the first time, you wait for me for a while!"
Liu Tianxiong turned around and prepared to go downstairs as he spoke, the Zhou family is likely to be Tang Yun's in-laws in the future, and as Tang Yun's friend, elder and partner, he naturally can't be rude.
Seeing this, Tang Yun hurriedly grabbed him: "No need Uncle Liu, what do you see Xiao Yu holding in his hand?"
Liu Tianxiong turned his head to look when he heard this, and saw Wang Yu behind him holding flowers in one hand and a fruit basket in the other, obviously prepared in advance.
Wang Yu raised his hand and handed the gift to Liu Tianxiong, Liu Tianxiong happily took it and said, "Thank you Xiaoyu, it has helped me a lot!"
Tang Yun rang the doorbell, and the person who opened the door was Zhou Lao.
"Don Jr. is here, please come in... Oh, and there are other guests?"
Zhou Rendao looked very happy to see Tang Yun appear outside the door, and at the same time, he also saw Liu Tianxiong and Wang Yu behind Tang Yun.
Tang Yun pointed to the two and introduced: "Old Zhou, this is the richest man in North China Province, Liu Tianxiong and President Liu, and next to him is my younger brother Wang Yu!"
"Ahem!"
Liu Tianxiong, who was about to say hello to Zhou Lao with a smile on his face, couldn't help but be angry and funny when he heard Tang Yun introduce him like this: "Old Zhou, don't listen to Xiao Tang's nonsense, I just did a little business in North China Province, this is a little gift, I hope to smile!"
"Haha, then I'll thank Mr. Liu first, come on, come on, sit inside!"
Liu Tianxiong walked into the living room of the Zhou family and saw a landscape painting hanging prominently on the white wall.
"This, this is another painting that Xiao Tang said? Fan Kuan's "Traveling in Streams and Mountains"?"
Zhou Lao smiled: "That's right! How about Xiao Tang, are you still satisfied?"
"Satisfied, satisfied!"
Tang Yun nodded at the scroll, the reframed one was different, and it looked much more beautiful than before.
"By the way, Mr. Zhou, I haven't given you this fee yet!"
Tang Yun said as he reached into his bag to take the money.
Seeing this, Zhou Lao hurriedly stopped him: "No need, can my old man still ask for your money?" Besides, when my old friend saw this painting, you didn't see that expression at the time, I guess if he asked him to post the money upside down, he would be willing." ”
Liu Tianxiong smiled and nodded in understanding: "This is true, this painting can be said to be a rare Song Dynasty painting masterpiece, it is said that Dong Qichang commented that this "Traveling Map of Streams and Mountains" is the first Song Dynasty painting!"
Zhou Lao touched the beard on his chin and smiled: "It seems that Mr. Liu is also very good at calligraphy and painting!"
"Old Zhou has won the award. ”
Zhou Jiajia accompanied her father Zhou Nanfeng to the hospital for a review today, so at this time, Zhou Lao was the only one in the family, but Zhou Lao would also go to the hospital to visit him later, so Tang Yun and the three of them just sat down for a while, and then took the re-framed "Journey to the Mountains and Streams" to say goodbye to Zhou Lao.
