Hearing that Zolf Henry gave him a clear answer, Fang Lang also nodded with satisfaction, he knew that the other party must have regarded himself as an art dealer in his heart now.

wants to make money by hyping Picasso's works, Fang Lang just smiled at this, after all, his goal has been achieved, and he doesn't care how the other party understands Fang Lang.

With Zolf Henry's reminder and thinking of investing in art, Fang Lang certainly would not invest in Picasso's works alone, even if Monet's works were added, they could not satisfy Fang Lang's desires.

Therefore, he did not hesitate to take advantage of the victory and pursued:

"Do you have any other work that you recommend other than these two painters?"

Hearing this, Zolf Henry, who was leading the way to visit the manor, stopped again, stood in front of Fang Lang and said:

"It's ....... As far as I know, there are a lot of famous works for sale in the market right now, and if you are interested, you can purchase some and invest in them.

For example, the works of the Dutch post-impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh have great potential.

But he has passed away, and his works have been recognized by a large number of collectors, and it is impossible to speculate after a large number of stocks.

If you want to invest in his work, the cost you may need to invest is huge. ”

From here, Fang Lang can see that his housekeeper's vision in painting works is still very vicious, at least so far, the painters he recommended are all familiar to Fang Lang in later generations, as long as he has a few works of these people, his family's heritage in the Western oil painting collection market will become extremely deep.

He may not know who Vincent is, but the name Van Gogh is too loud. At least, people like him know that Van Gogh has a work called "Sunflowers", which is the top name in later generations, and there should be very few people who have not heard of it.

So, when he heard this name, Fang Lang had a clear understanding of Zolf Henry's ability to appreciate art.

Such a person turned out to be a housekeeper, I have to say that the quality of the English butler is indeed high, no wonder later generations say that the English butler is a gentleman among gentlemen. More gentlemanly than gentlemen, more aristocratic than nobles.

Some even say that although they are not descendants of the nobility, they are the teachers of the nobility.

At least, at this moment, this Zolf Henry's ability is very satisfying to Fang Lang, and even greatly exceeds his imagination.

As for the other abilities, we will have to wait for the slow investigation later.

"Vincent van Gogh, who created "Sunflowers" and "Starry Nights", right?"

Hearing this, Zolf Henry nodded and said with a smile:

"It seems that the gentleman is very knowledgeable about the art market, and you are right, I am talking about this person. Although this Vincent van Gogh had some mental illness, he was indeed a genius painter,

It's a pity that God is jealous of the talent, his life was very short, and he only lived to be 37 years old before committing suicide. It is said that in his short life, he created only 864 oil paintings, but the number of drawings was 1,037 and 150 watercolors.

If you want to hype up his paintings, the cost of investing is huge, because his work is already recognized by the world.

There shouldn't be many people who are willing to make an easy move. I suggest that if you want to hype, you should look for some living painters and stock up while they are not yet famous, so as to maximize the profits. ”

"Haha...... It doesn't matter, I'm not short of money, since you think this Vincent van Gogh is a genius, then I will invest in him, no matter how many of his works are sold on the market, as long as I can be sure that they are genuine.

You can contact me on my behalf, and I'll be looking for a professional team to take care of this business.

As for your suggestion to find living artists to invest in, it does make a lot of sense, I wonder if you have any good recommendations? ”

Now Fang Lang really recognizes the other party's artistic attainments, so he is really ready to let him provide advice on his art investment.

Even, if the other party really recommends a few artists he is not familiar with for investment, he will not refuse, after all, hyping up artworks is originally the specialty of some big collectors.

I own a media organization, and it is not too easy to hype up the reputation of an artist. As long as the artist's level is not too bad, it will be difficult to lose money when he has enough works in his hands.

Besides, judging from the few artists that the other party recommends to him now, Zolf Henry's vision is definitely very vicious.

That's why he continued to ask if there were any other good artists to recommend.

Zolf Henry heard Fang Lang say boldly, when he was not bad for money, the whole person was stunned, and now he didn't know how much money Fang Lang had, but he was able to say that he was not bad for money.

He believes that it will definitely not be bad, since the other party believes in his vision, he is very satisfied with the few people he recommends. Then he no longer hesitated, and after thinking about it in his heart for a while, he said slowly:

"Sir, I thank you very much for your trust, and if you really want me to continue to recommend you, I do have three suitable candidates here, and I can assure you that you absolutely love their work."

Looking at Zolf Henry's confident appearance, Fang Lang was a little surprised, and at the same time felt funny in his heart, the other party would feel that he would definitely like the other party's work very much.

You must know that he himself is not an artist, nor does he have any artistic cells, he can't even understand Picasso's paintings, if he didn't know that these guys in later generations are very famous, or he knows that the works of these guys are very valuable, he wouldn't spend a lot of money to invest in each other's works!

Now that he heard Zolf Henry say that he was sure that he would like it very much, he could not help but be a little intrigued.

With a smile on his face, he looked at each other with some playfulness in his eyes and said:

"Oh! There are three suitable candidates, tell me if I have heard of it. ”

Of course, Zolf Henry was clear about Fang Lang's expression, but he didn't care, and slowly stretched out a finger and said unhurriedly:

"First of all, all three of them are still alive and have a lot of creative time."

Hearing this, Fang Lang nodded and motioned for the other party to continue.

Seeing this, Zolf Henry slowly stretched out his second finger and said:

"Second, they are all Chinese, and the works they create must be in line with your aesthetics."

Fang Lang was shocked by these words, he didn't expect that the other party would recommend three Chinese artists to him, but he thought that since the other party could have a deep study of Chinese antiques, it must be normal to like Chinese artworks.

It is also very possible to be able to discover a few potential artists in China.

Now he really began to become interested, and his eyes began to slowly shine.

Nodding to Zolf Henry, he motioned for him to continue.

Seeing Fang Lang's expression, Zolf Henry also had a smile on his face, and said with a more confident expression:

"Thirdly, most of their works are in Chinese style, which is definitely in line with your aesthetic."

Fang Lang never expected that the other party recommended him to a few Chinese, and the works were also in Chinese style, no wonder he was sure that he would like it.

It seems that this Zolf Henry must have also reached a certain level of speculation on the human heart.

For the three points he said, Fang Lang was indeed very moved, so he said with a little eagerness:

"Haha...... Tell me who these three artists are. I'd like to know who of the artists in my hometown have caught your eye. They even suggested that I invest in them. ”

When Zolf Henry heard Fang Lang's words, he obviously affirmed his vision, which made him very happy. The first meeting between yourself and your new boss will make the other party recognize your abilities, which will certainly facilitate his future work.

Since Fang Lang had already asked the other party's name, of course it was not good for him to continue to adjust the other party's appetite, so he no longer hid it, and said directly:

"The first painter is named Qi Baishi, and he should be in his 80s now, but as far as I know, he has not passed away and is still working on it, and his work is very valuable for investment.

The second painter is named Xu Beihong, now 51 years old, he once studied in France, and his oil painting "Old Woman" created in France was selected for the French National Art Exhibition.

Later, he traveled to Germany, Belgium, Italy, Greece, Switzerland and other countries to visit and study, and he was the only one of the three painters who had studied in Europe and the United States.

The third painter is named Zhang Daqian, who is now 47 years old and studied in Japan in his early years.

These three painters have their own characteristics and skills, and I think their works are very collectible. ”

When Fang Lang heard the first name, the whole person was already stunned, he never thought that Zolf Henry, who was far away in the United States, would actually know Qi Baishi's name, and also recommended him to himself.

Before he could finish his shock, the other party reported two more names that made him familiar, at this moment, Fang Lang was very suspicious that the other party was also a traverser.

Otherwise, the names of the few people casually reported by the other party are all famous big names in later generations, if he is not a traverser, this vision alone should not be so nameless.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stare in his eyes, and his heart couldn't help but be vigilant, and he tentatively said to Zolf Henry:

"Do you know Bruce Lee and Michael Jackson?"

Since it was a test of the other party, of course he couldn't directly ask the other party if he was a traverser or something, but it should be unlikely that a household name like Michael Jackson had not heard of it again.

As for Bruce Lee, he is one of the most impressive Chinese stars in Fang Lang, since the other party understands Chinese culture like this, if he is a traveler, he must have heard of this name.

After speaking, Fang Lang's eyes were firmly fixed on the change in the other party's expression, for fear of missing a trace of detail.

But the other party's performance was not abnormal, but after thinking seriously for a while, he said with some doubts:

"I'm sorry, sir, are these two you talking about also painters?

I'm really sorry, I haven't heard of their big names, if you like their work, I can also ask in the circle. Find a way to acquire some back for you. ”

Fang Lang, who stared at the other party without blinking, confirmed that the other party did not show any abnormality, which made him feel a little complicated, relieved and a little lost at the same time.

Shaking his head slightly, he said:

"No, they are not painters, they are my two friends, because I really like Qi Baishi's works as you mentioned, and I told them both about this.

I heard that you recommended Qi Baishi to me, and I thought that you knew these two friends of mine, and they told you about my preferences.

Since you don't know the two of them, forget it. ”

Fang Lang's words made Zolf Henry show a very gentlemanly smile, and bent slightly to Fang Lang and said:

"Sir, I don't know these two friends of yours, but since you have also discovered Mr. Qi Baishi's excellence, it means that my recommendation is correct, right?

It's gold that always shines, and you're a connoisseur of finding real gold in the gravel.

I think my recommendation will surely satisfy you. ”

Hearing this, Fang Lang laughed, stepped forward and shook Zolf Henry's hand, patted the other party's arm and said:

"Mr. Zolf Henry, may I call you Zolf?"

"Of course, sir, it is my pleasure!"

"Zolf I want to tell you that you are excellent, definitely an excellent housekeeper, and I appreciate you.

If you can be absolutely loyal, I will make you my steward for life. ”

Fang Lang is indeed very satisfied with Zolf Henry's performance, but there are some things he must say first. In his opinion, the most important quality of a steward is loyalty, and other abilities are secondary.

After all, his identity is very sensitive, and as his housekeeper, he may hear about many military affairs in the future, such as the European support plan that he came to discuss with Morgan this time, which is still in absolute secrecy.

If he can't be absolutely loyal, he will spread the news he heard here, and if he can't say whether he can let him go, it will definitely say that the U.S. government will definitely choose to kill him without hesitation.

In addition, Fang Lang is still very cautious about the use of the personnel around him, almost everyone has to be investigated and monitored by his intelligence agencies, if he finds an abnormality, he will definitely not hesitate to directly kill them.

In other words, working by Fang Lang's side is actually very dangerous, and if you don't do it, you will have to worry about your life.

After Zolf Henry heard Fang Lang's words, his expression was stunned, and he said with a serious face:

"Thank you, sir, for your recognition of my work! I know that being loyal to your employer is a fundamental act of ethics. Please trust me to do this perfectly.

It is a great honor to be your steward for life. ”

Fang Lang smiled absently:

"Zolf, I hope you can understand that my job is very special and requires a very high level of secrecy. Working by my side, there will definitely be an investigation by the intelligence services, and there will probably be surveillance.

If you are found to have leaked secrets, you may be arrested directly.

So, I hope you don't rush to give me an answer, take me for a good tour today, think about it when you go back, and discuss it with your family.

If, once you have made a decision, you can't change it for life, I hope you can think it carefully before giving me an answer, this is not an easy job. ”
