"Eight pieces for a foot?" Zhang Lu obviously didn't expect: "The works of modern painters are so expensive, how much does it cost to paint such a big painting?" ”

At this time, he and Jiang Shan stood in front of a painting at the same time.

The red maple in the mountains is full of eyes, and the book "Ten thousand mountains are red all over, and the forests are dyed".

Compared to the surrounding ink banners, this one is truly unique.

Especially in the lower right corner of the painting, there is a label of "Zhai Collection", which burns the eyes of the country.

Speaking of this painting, which will be sold for 180 million yuan in the future, Jiang Shan knows too well.

"Ten Thousand Mountains Are Red" is a masterpiece by contemporary writer Li Keran.

At that time, he created seven paintings on this theme in succession, and the prices varied according to the date of the sale in later generations.

However, most of them are around 100 million yuan, and they have fallen into the hammer.

However, it is a bit interesting to talk about this "Red Mountains", which is the first work of Li Keran to surpass his master Qi/Baishi.

In that year, it was sent to Rong Bao Zhai for consignment, and the big shopkeeper gave 80 yuan for the manuscript.

Li Keran, who was happy, didn't fall asleep for several nights, because Qi Lao's masterpiece was only sold for 10 yuan a foot back then.

Huang Binhong is even more miserable, only worth 8 yuan a foot in this museum.

It sounds like it's cheap anymore.

But in 52 years, no one cared about selling one for a dollar, or Fu Lei couldn't stand it anymore, so he bought two.

As a result, Huang Binhongle sent more than a dozen to Fu Lei.

The staff who walked in front continued to walk all the way to introduce all the way: "Jiang Zhaohe 8 yuan 1 foot, Wang Xuetao 12 yuan 1 foot, Lu Yanshao 8 yuan, Liu Bingsen 8 cents a ......"

The more Jiang Shan listened, the more outrageous he felt, how could he feel like he was in a fabric store, tearing cloth.

He finally stopped, gritted his teeth and asked: "Is this calligraphy work for eight cents for sale?" ”

As expected, the staff smiled and shook their heads:

"Some of these exhibits are calligraphy and paintings purchased in the museum, and some are collections temporarily stored here by Rong Bao Zhai, which cannot be sold to the public."

Jiang Shan was dead, he smiled and nodded: "I see." ”

Thinking about it again, it's no wonder that Luo Zhongli and Chen Danqing formed a group to draw villain books this time, which is more valuable than painting.

You must know that now Jiangshan's own villain books are worth twice as much as this.

But the heart is turning the river and the sea.

is these moments, and he refused to buy a calligraphy and painting for himself when he died, but in 1981, he persuaded Xu Huachi to take them all.

Later generations always said that this transaction was made by Xu Hua when he saw them flow abroad, but in fact, the history museum itself was not operating well.

In 1979, the museum set up a special exhibition hall to sell works by modern painters to foreign guests.

Business is pretty bleak.

Not only did he not earn any foreign exchange, but he also received a hospitality fee of three yuan per person.

I really couldn't sustain it anymore, so I released the news and prepared to deal with a batch of worthless calligraphy and paintings.

However, the more it is sold, the more unpopular it is.

Only Xu Huachi, who runs a painting shop at home, came to consult a few times.

Originally, he just wanted to pick a few masterpieces in the library, but he was persuaded by the museum to buy them together and fold them.

After thinking about it again, Xu Huachi withstood the pressure from his family, sold several properties, and scraped together 200,000 yuan for the painting.

The coffin-sized box contained a total of six boxes.

Before leaving, he was chased by the curator with a bundle of calligraphy works, and asked him to help buy it and take it away.

There was no way, Xu Huachi had to pay another 100 yuan to buy it.

Those are the calligraphy works of 8 cents that Jiang Shan just looked at.

Only this bundle of words, Xu Huachi bought from 1,000 yuan in 94 to 40,000 in 02.

Actually, Jiang Shan didn't have any other ideas, he just liked it.

Everyone knows that he has a good habit of copying.

After walking around, Jiang Shan finally found Huang Binhong's masterpiece, which is one of his favorite masters.

Thick ink and heavy brushwork, majestic and high.

I have always wondered why most people think that Huang Binhong's paintings are "dirty", and no one wants them for free.

Fortunately, Huang Lao has been insisting on his own style, so he has the glory after that.

"Alas,"

Jiang Shan sighed in front of Huang Lao's painting, and then left lonely.

This scene, Gu Zhengzheng, who was following behind him, was all in his eyes.

When Jiang Shan, Huang Hua and Zhang Lu walked out of the history museum, they found that there was no shadow of the leader behind them.

"Huh?" Zhang Lu was the first to discover: "Which of you two has seen Gutai?" ”

Jiang Shan glanced back: "Didn't he keep walking behind us just now?" ”

Huang Hua smiled unhurriedly: "Don't worry, if you can lose such a big person as Gutai, you probably have to go to the toilet." ”

After he said this, the other two also wanted to go to the toilet.

So the three of them immediately decided to go for convenience and find a leader by the way.

At this moment, Gu Zhengzheng was sitting in an office in the museum on the phone.

"After my observation, there are two paintings that Comrade Xiaojiang likes very much......" Gu Zhengzheng was calling Zhou Yeming:

"By the way, there's another ...... Who came, I can't remember the name, anyway, the word is not expensive, only 8 cents a piece. ”

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Yeming, who was sitting in the office, wrote very carefully:

“…… Li Keran, Huang Binhong...... There is also calligraphy for 8 cents. That's all? ”

Gu Zhengzheng saw it clearly: "Yes, that's all." ”

After Zhou Yeming put down his pen, he said earnestly: "Gutai, I just learned that the bonus given to Zong Fuxian by the Ministry of Culture/Ministry has been approved, a full two thousand yuan. ”

"Two thousand? So high? Gu Zhengzheng couldn't believe his ears, but he thought about it: "Which sect is first?" So much for the rewards. ”

"You are really a noble person," Zhou Yeming reminded: "The author of the silent place, this drama didn't become popular first in your Pujiang!" ”

"Oh," Gu Zhengzheng also remembered: "That drama is indeed amazing, I heard that after the work was published, the author was ready to squat." ”

Zhou Yeming nodded, "In the Silence" is indeed like a thunderbolt in today's era.

The creative team that organized and arranged this drama really put on all the pressure.

It is precisely because of the appearance of this work that many excellent authors have begun to write again and speak freely.

It's just that it's crooked.

Zhou Yeming, holding the earpiece, continued:

"It is said that Comrade Xiao Jiang's contribution this time is not small, and he solved two problems for us in one fell swoop, and he should also be rewarded well, but the scope of our power is ......."

He was a little bit reluctant to go.

Gu Zhengzheng took over the topic:

"It's not in the way, Comrade Xiao Jiang is a sincere child, I will do his ideological work, in fact, a folk art lover like him, let's award him two calligraphy and paintings, which is more effective than awarding him money."
