Gao Guxuan waited a few seconds on the podium before the boiling chatter in the audience stopped.

Red puffy skin, thick neck.

He stood on the podium in front of the New Art Center, as if he were a statue made of red bronze, and his whole appearance reflected the luster of the flash of the camera under the stage.

Larry Gao Zhuxuan is a second-generation New York immigrant who is half Central Asian and half Eastern European, which makes his eyebrows look a little bit of the shadow of a simple and simple steppe man in the public impression.

But the simple truth.

Any businessman who can afford to stand on the small balcony of an apartment next door to a brothel in New York's red-light district, sell an illustrated poster at the bottom of the chain for fifty cents, and end up selling for billions of dollars.

It will not be a simple character who is simple and simple.

Compared to the three-square-meter balcony where he started his business.

The calligraphy and painting shops handed down from Gu Tongxiang's family are luxurious and magnificent, like a whole Louvre.

And fifty years later.

When Gu Tongxiang looked back on Gu Weijing's life, he was complacent about his achievements in making his worth from $15 to $500, sending his son to study abroad by the way, and redecorating the family's old house, and the old man was indeed a lucky leader in the surrounding environment.

Contemporary, Gao Guxuan.

He has become one of the leaders at the top of the world's art wave.

In simpler terms.

He's so TMD, it's not easy.

Such as the chubby classicist oil painter Kazunari Sakai, the master of fine brushwork Tang Ning, and the illustration giant Jane Arnold...... When the public media introduces these great artists to readers, they often add some prefixes and nicknames to highlight their achievements.

However, in this case, there is no need for any prefix.

Gagosian is Gagosian.

He's like Sir Brown, or the Elena family, or Picasso, Leonardo da Vinci, these names.

When everyone hears this name, they should immediately realize that the other party is the owner of Gagosian Gallery -

The world's No. 1 gallerist.

Therefore, the first sentence of his speech on the stage caused a chain reaction like waves in the entire annual meeting.

Sir Brown's honorific title is "The Pope of Art".

Gagosian was dubbed the "Tsar of Art" because of his extraordinarily tough approach and close ties with Russia's super-rich.

Throughout the venue.

If there is anyone who can get close to the Elena family, and at the same time have the same status and influence as Sir Brown.

Then there is only Gagosian.

He was also the only person in the room who was qualified and justified to choose to side with Anna and was dissatisfied with the reforms of the Oil Painting magazine.

Because what Sir Brown did had always been what Gagosian had desperately wanted to accomplish with his powerful influence.

There can only be one Haonan in Causeway Bay.

There can only be one emperor in the art circle.

Gagosian has taken the lead in the commercial competition of the art market, doubling the global art transaction volume and spending more than a decade in order to unify the market.

Unification into unsuccessful put aside.

At the critical moment when the players were pinching the money in the market, and the referee with the whistle on the sidelines suddenly warmed up and left the game in person.

What kind of fuss is this!

Can you still have fun?

Coach, coach, I want to report, FUCK, someone wants to engage in shady, is it okay to call the police!

Gagosian and other top gallerists can feel happy, and that's the ghost.

The sarcastic sentences of yin and yang on the stage are normal operations, even if you jump to your feet and scold directly, you may not really be able to do it.

Elliot hugged the dog, prepared peanuts and melon seeds, and looked forward to watching the tearing B in the audience.

Although it does not help to relieve the pressure of the young lady in the magazine, just look at this good show of "Battle of the Two Emperors" and imagine Sir Brown's embarrassing mood.

The secretary felt that in the past two days, because of her distraction and lack of sleep, her damaged skin has become brighter and more moisturized!

As a result, that's it?

is also dignified Larry Gagoxuan, he didn't fight, and when he came up, he knelt directly on the ground and waved the white flag.

This tsar is not very good.

Elliot clenched his fists tightly, eager to use August's oily and slippery fur as a large towel, bury his face in it and cry.

Before the other party came to power, Bai cheered him up in his heart for a long time.

"No, no, no, no......"

Elliot realized something was wrong.

She suddenly understood.

Sir Brown, who has been able to contact important artists who want to sign contracts in private, why did he forget to include these super galleries in his territory?

The other party's ambitions are even greater than they imagined.

Sir Brown is not just integrating the interior of Oil Painting magazine...... What he wants to integrate is the entire global art market!

Those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me perish.

In the recent time that Miss Elena had been expelled from the board, something must have happened that she didn't know.

Look at Gao Guxuan's smiling face on the podium.

That's not what a loser who surrenders without a fight should behave when he raises a white flag and surrenders.

The two sides must have privately reached a treaty for the exchange of interests.

It doesn't matter anymore.

None of that matters anymore.

No matter what Sir Brown has paid for.

The moment Gagosian stood on the stage and announced that his gallery had joined the future plans of Oil Painting, he had already won.

Big wins, big wins, big wins.

In a trance, the Western art market is like stepping back in time.

Four or five hundred years ago, there was a time when someone could rule the entire field of art with the supreme authority of the individual.

This time.

It is no longer the white-robed Majesty in the Château de la Pape on the shores of the sparkling Rhône, but the old man in a suit and leather shoes in the Art Nouveau Center.

He is already the most powerful man in the art media.

is about to become the most powerful person in the entire art field.

Sir Brown would become richer and more famous than any other great artist.

Because he can easily ruin or make any artist's reputation and high-end commercial contracts popular, he is like a god who can do whatever he wants.

And they have nothing to lose.

Sir Brown has become the god of art.

Who can stop God?

The noise and discussion not only stopped at the annual meeting, but also spread around the world at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second with photographic lenses and optical fibers.

There has been an exponential explosion of growth across the internet.

Gu Weijing stopped rubbing the cat's fingers on the top of the melon skin, and Ah Wang's narrowed eyes opened a slit, looking at the owner who frowned slightly suspiciously.

Meow?

Gu Weijing shook his head lightly.

With his sensitivity to the industry and his ability to capture risks in the industry, it is far from enough to figure out the joints through Gagosian's words.

He was just instinctively instinctive, and he was upset about it.

The entire "Oil Painting" magazine didn't have a good impression of his "detective cat" vest.

A hostile relationship has arisen, but "The Little Prince" is selling too hot, so they have to let Sir Brown and them suppress this matter and deal with it coldly.

Gagosian Gallery and Oil Painting have reached a higher level of in-depth cooperation.

From the perspective of his personal interests, it should not be something to be happy about.

THE COMMENT AREA OF TIKTOK'S LIVE BROADCAST MESSAGE HAS EXPLODED DIRECTLY AT THIS TIME.

Hundreds of discussions, all refreshed in seconds.

IF IT WEREN'T FOR THE IPAD'S CHIP DECODING CAPABILITY BEING REALLY POWERFUL ENOUGH IN THE CATEGORY OF MOBILE PLATFORMS, IT WOULD EVEN BECOME STUCK BECAUSE THE NUMBER OF COMMENTS HAS INCREASED TOO MUCH.

"Is Larry Gagosian surrendering to the Paintings? It's so disappointing, it's not his character. ”

"Sir Brown is already invincible, what if he doesn't surrender. After solving Elena's trouble. I declare that the art world has officially entered the era of Sir Brown. ”

"This is the Pope of Art."

"Do you want to explain what the '2023 New Era Muse Project' represents and why you have such a lively discussion? The big guy begged to be brought. ”

“……”

Gu Weijing stared at the tablet screen without saying a word.

Gao Guxuan on the podium stretched out his hand and pressed down, so that the surrounding discussion and noise were suppressed a little, then raised his head, looked away from the speech, and cleared his throat.

"Ahem."

"This is big news, I know a lot of people have questions they want to ask, and I have so much content and details of the collaboration to be able to share. Trust me, I want to say that too. Well, Chairman Brown is sitting down there right now. ”

"Given that from now on, many of our gallerists may have to eat according to his eyes, you know......"

Gagosian pouted.

"I don't dare to steal the limelight from Chairman Brown and steal the limelight here."

There was also a knowing chuckle from the audience.

Sir Brown shrugged at the camera and smiled wryly, as if he did not agree with Gagosian's statement, but he was helpless.

"So, what's the next problem, wait to bother Chairman Brown, and he will be the queen of today's ball, the most beautiful person in this venue. I'm just honored to be the first to announce here that I will be part of the future of Paintings, but by no means the last. ”

"Now, allow me to humbly ask you to take a break from your curiosity about the Grand Project of Oil Painting for five minutes to listen to me talk about the value of artists in the primary and secondary markets from the perspective ......of the rise and fall of the American gallery industry."

Gagosian's statement is very funny and humorous.

On any other occasion, it will be a very rewarding and rare opportunity to listen to this kind of boss who has counterattacked from the bottom to the top of the society and analyzed the industry situation.

But now.

No matter how well he speaks, no one is listening.

Even if he is as good as Gao Guxuan, today he is unfortunately the companion who accompanies the prince to read, or the short-legged glasses girl who pads the field before the prom queen appears.

The focus of attention on and off the field has long deviated from things other than his speech.

The discussion on the webcast intensified.

"What is this guy talking about? Hurry up and go down. Who cares, who wants to hear this. I'll just wait for Sir Brown to come on stage. ”

"Render to God what is God's, and to Caesar what is Caesar's, this argument does not work in the field of art. The tsar also had to kneel before the pope. ”

"What do you mean? Why I don't understand. ”

"How come anyone still doesn't know about the struggle between the Yelena family and the management of "Oil Painting", Bro, your family has just been connected to the Internet?"

"I don't care if I don't care, I'm just here to see the beautiful young lady, which side is she, where am I standing, hug!"

"Don't go crazy here!"

“……”

Minutes and seconds passed.

The spotlight was locked on the red-carpeted podium, where important dignitaries took the stage and bowed down in applause.

The figures swayed, and the applause was like a tide.

When the Art Nouveau Center, which occupies the heart of Glitz City, was built, it was once criticized as "the egg of an alien worm" by those who didn't like it because of its eerie sci-fi design.

Perhaps even the designer would not have imagined that it would one day become the artistic heart of the whole of Europe, and even the entire artistic heart of the entire Western world.

It attracts the attention of all art practitioners.

this day.

The reporter of the New Yorker, the media section of the audience, wrote in a poetic way in the news bulletin sent to the headquarters: "The humid air blows through the early morning of the city of Gritz, and the muse perched on the sacred mountain of Olympus casts a touch of moonlight towards the heart of Central Europe. The butterflies that have flown to the new era are hatching in the abdomen of the alien insects, and they are swaying in front of my eyes and ready to break out of their cocoons. Towards the next 100 years. 】

[We missed the wave of Romanticism and Impressionism. I have never been able to meet Van Gogh and Picasso in person. But at this moment, everyone around me has never felt so clearly that a new era of art is coming. 】

Even Gu Weijing, who is in the "art desert", began to smell the sea flavor from the speeches of the bigwigs.

No one cared about what Gagosian said in his speech anymore.

But his words, "I am honored to be the first to announce here, to be part of the future of Oil Painting, but by no means the last." Proverbs.

Over the course of the next three and a half hours, it was fulfilled repeatedly.

Lisson Gallery, Standing Wood Gallery, Perrotin Gallery, CDX Gallery, Cecily Brown, a Londonese painter who still has a record for individual items at auction to Downing, Miquel Barcelo of Spain, a national treasure of Spain, and Albert Oehlen, vice president of the Hamburg Artists Association......

At least two-thirds of the invited guests at the annual meeting announced that they would join the "New Era of Muse" program launched by Oil Painting.

In the beginning.

The comment section is still counting how many artists and gallery representatives have announced their collaboration with the painting.

Soon, people are even already feeling numb.

It is only surprising that a handful of guests take the podium and do not declare themselves to be part of the "Muse Project".

"How many are there?" Someone in the comment section asked.

"Counting the founder of CDX on stage, there are currently six InterContinental galleries and eight top artists, who have been included in the development map of Oil Painting." There is a count of Jun reports.

"This annual meeting of European art was simply renamed 'Oil Painting Magazine Signing Press Conference', and there is nothing else to do except this content. The organizing committee allowed them to sing on stage like this? ”

"To be able to provoke such a wide range of responses, no matter what "Oil Painting" wants to do, it can already be regarded as the collective fashion of the entire European art industry. What reason does the organizing committee have to stop it? Some netizens explained: "However, I guess that the so-called Muse Project should not be too strict to allow so many art leaders to join, but more like a loose industry alliance like a gallerists' association, otherwise, it will be too scary." ”

"It's terrible now. I've seen it on the Internet before, and the oil painting team is in contact with many big artists. At the time, I thought it would be like Saudi Arabia trying to sign one or two stars of Neymar and Mbappe. When Gagosian first took the stage, I realized that I was wrong, because the magazine "Oil Painting" was so big that he bought the whole Real Madrid. "Looking at it now, I realize that I still underestimate how terrible Oil Painting is, they bought not only Real Madrid, but also Barcelona, Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and AC Milan." ”

"It's not about forming a galaxy battleship to win the Champions League, it's about saving up a European Super League by yourself, and playing with yourself! Artists who can't join this small circle can only lose their exposure and attention, and they will be dead, which is the end of all those who are not in the same boat as Sir Brown. Other netizens understood what the other party was talking about.

"It's a pity that no one will come forward and stop their ambitions like the British Prime Minister has announced legislation to stop the European Super League." Someone sighed faintly in the comment area.

At this time, in the lens.

An old fox as deep as Sir Brown, looking at the scene of the world's heroes entering me, couldn't help but show a smug arc at the corner of his mouth.

He was stunned for a moment.

Because he found that Anna next to him was also laughing.
