Chapter Seventy-Two: Zhang Benxing
Accompanied by the manager, Ye Yu and the four of them entered the venue, which was also a treatment that other auction companies did not have.
The venue is not complicated, it is very simple, the calligraphy and paintings are placed on the wall, as soon as he entered, He Hongfei took the two people around him and looked at the calligraphy and paintings on both sides.
The two people behind him still had notebooks and pens in their hands, and He Hongfei was holding his mobile phone and preparing to take pictures.
This kind of commercial exhibition of calligraphy and painting does not prohibit taking pictures, and there are many people like them, all of whom are from auction companies.
They have participated in more than one such event, and they are very experienced, and they know very well which works are suitable for auction and which works are suitable for their auction company.
Ye Yu was like a real appreciator, just watching from the sidelines.
Ye Yu, who was bored, directly opened the Extreme Eye.
Under the Extreme Eye, all the calligraphy and paintings are very clear, and all the subtle gaps are also captured by the Extreme Eye.
It's a pity that this pen is used too much.
I didn't deal with this word well, my hands were shaking at the time, right?
Well, this painting is okay, barely a six.
These words are good, a bit of a famous style, six and a half minutes, no more.
What is this painting? Is this really a master?
Ye Yu looked at all the works as if he was looking at the flowers, either nodding or shaking his head, he looked at the fastest, but he was the most detailed person, he didn't know what artistic conception was in these calligraphy and paintings, but what were the shortcomings, he knew at a glance.
It wasn't until a simple blank sheet of paper that Ye Yu stopped there.
This is a pair of words, written as a poem, and the author's name is a little unfamiliar, but to be placed here, he must be a famous person.
Standing in front of the words, Ye Yu frowned slightly.
First of all, the paper of this word is very ordinary, that is, ordinary raw edge paper, generally speaking, how can famous people use rice paper, the better the famous ones, the better the paper used.
This kind of rough-edged paper does not mean that it cannot be written, and most of it is used by ordinary novices to practice.
The nose was activated, Ye Yu smelled the ink again, the ink is also very ordinary, good ink will have a special fragrance, this kind of ink does not have it, it is also a very ordinary ink on the street, and it can be bought for more than ten yuan.
Even the pen he uses is ordinary.
There is a residual taste of pen hair on the word, and the material of the brush is neither rabbit hair nor sheep hair, and wolf hair is not, it is a pig hair pen made of ordinary pig hair.
The ordinary materials are not the reason why Ye Yu stopped, the reason why Ye Yu stopped was because of the words on it.
The materials are ordinary, but the words are not ordinary, but his words are a little strange, he writes cursive, but not as vigorous and powerful as other people's cursive, his writing is very flat, very stable, it doesn't look like that kind of sharpness, but it makes people look very comfortable.
In addition, there are very few mistakes in his words at the moment, only in terms of mistakes, this is the one that Ye Yu has seen the least today.
This is the reason why Ye Yu stopped, in terms of writing, strength, penmanship and other aspects, Ye Yu can give him eight points.
Eight points does not seem to be high, but it is the highest score given by Ye Yu today, and it is not easy to get eight points at the moment.
"Director He, come here!"
Calligraphy and painting have always been Ye Yu's weakness, this is not jade, Ye Yu can see everything at a glance, even if he has an extreme eye, people who have not studied calligraphy can't see too much.
After all, calligraphy has a soul and is emotionally invested, and these are not visible to the eye.
"Here, Director Ye!"
He Hongfei and two company employees heard Ye Yu's cry and immediately trotted over, the exhibition place was not big, and the shout could be heard almost anywhere.
"Look at this calligraphy!" Ye Yu pointed to the calligraphy on the wall, and the three of them immediately looked at the wall.
"This paper doesn't work, how can you use this kind of paper!"
"Ink is also average, how can such a work be put in? What do the people from the exhibition company think?"
The two employees immediately spoke, and He Hongfei pushed his eyes and looked carefully at the words on the wall.
"Director Ye, he is very skilled in writing, but the writing is too peaceful, and he has lost the idle and arrogant characteristics of cursive, which looks like chapter grass, but he does not have the momentum of chapter grass to release the sea!"
He Hongfei shook his head and said slowly, although Ye Yu is weak in calligraphy, he is not ignorant at all, at least cursive, and the various types of cursive are still clear.
But professionalism is different, what He Hongfei said Ye Yu can feel, but he can't describe it.
"You're right, but he can write so well, there's no reason not to know these shortcomings, he can completely avoid these weaknesses!"
Ye Yu nodded and expressed the doubts in his heart.
He Hongfei was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded, Ye Yu was right, this author's handwriting is indeed okay, with such skills, how could he make such a low-level mistake?
It's weird.
"Manager Li, are you free?"
Ye Yu saw the manager who greeted him just now, and immediately beckoned to him, and this Manager Li immediately walked over.
"Hello Mr. Ye, as long as you have something, I am free at any time!" Manager Li is very good at talking, which makes people listen to it very comfortably.
Ye Yu pointed to the words on the wall and asked, "Thank you, I want to ask you, how many works of this author are exhibited today?"
Manager Li looked at the painting on the wall and immediately replied: "Zhang Benxing, he will have this work today!"
"Zhang Benxing?" Ye Yu repeated the name, very unfamiliar, he looked at He Hongfei, and He Hongfei also showed a blank look.
This author, none of them know.
"Mr. Ye, I won't hide it from you, this is a related household!" Manager Li smiled bitterly and explained to Ye Yu.
Relational households?
Ye Yu was stunned, no wonder he hadn't heard of this name, even He Hongfei didn't know it.
Relationship refers to the person who has a relationship, in China, the person with a relationship has the greatest energy, and can do almost anything he wants, of course, there is no problem in putting a painting in the exhibition.
He Hongfei immediately said: "Thank you Manager Li, Director Ye, there is no need for the related household to see it, why don't we go over there?"
"Wait!" Ye Yu waved his hand, although it was a relational household, this word was really good.
"Do you have the author's contact information, and is he willing to sell this work?"
There are so many famous people on the scene today, and all the words are not scored more than seven points here by Ye Yu, only this one can score eight points, and it can make Jiyan type eight points, and it can't be worse.
Even if the company doesn't want this letter, he wants to buy it and collect it himself, after all, it is a well-written word.
"Director Ye?" He Hongfei exclaimed in surprise.
Ye Yu shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's not for the company, I want to buy it myself!"
"I didn't mean that, what I want to say is, it's ......"
He Hongfei's face was a little red, and he held back for a long time and finally couldn't say what he wanted to say.
"You want to say, this painting is not good, and it is useless to buy it, right?"
Manager Li took He Hongfei's words, He Hongfei's face turned even redder, he was an honest man in the company and couldn't speak at all.
However, his business ability is very strong, and the position of the director of the modern calligraphy and painting department has always been very stable.
"The words are not bad, his words are very good, really good, I don't know why it is written like this, so I want to buy it, take a good look, it's okay, I like it myself!"
Ye Yu said with a smile, and a bright light flashed in Manager Li's eyes.
Ye Yu turned to look at Manager Li again: "Manager Li, please tell me the author's contact information, I want to ask him for this painting!"
"You don't need contact information, he's upstairs, if you want his words, I'll take you there!" Manager Li said softly.
The author is on the spot?
This kind of thing is not unheard of before, during the exhibition, some authors want to see the audience's reaction, will mix in the scene, but most of them are ordinary unknown authors, today's exhibition is a famous calligraphy and painting exhibition, generally do not come here.
However, thinking that this is a relational household, Ye Yu is no longer strange.
Manager Li asked people to put away the paintings, and took Ye Yu upstairs.
Qianyuan Hotel is a new five-star hotel, Manager Li took them upstairs and finally entered a luxury suite.
Ye Yu lived in a five-star suite, and when he was in Jieyang, it was just that compared with the one in front of him, it was completely a small thatched hut to a building.
There is no comparison.
The living room of this suite is very large, at least more than 150 square meters, but the living room is comparable to the new house that Ye Yu bought, and there is a large terrace, and the suite not only has a bedroom, but also a secondary bedroom, a study and an audio-visual room.
It's just a presidential suite.
It was a young man who opened the door, and he didn't say anything, but walked back to the sofa.
Here, Manager Li looked more respectful, walked to the sofa and whispered: "Mr. Zhang, according to your instructions, someone will send you someone if they take a fancy to your work, and I will introduce you to ......"
"No need to introduce, you go out first!" The young man interrupted him directly, and Manager Li was stunned and had no choice but to leave.
Before leaving, he glanced at Ye Yu, but Ye Yu didn't understand what this look meant.
"Mr. Ye, come, please take a seat!"
Waiting for Manager Li to go out, the young man said with a smile to Ye Yu, as for the three people behind Ye Yu, he ignored them directly, and didn't seem to look at them.
"You go back and continue to watch the exhibition first, and I'll look for you later!" Ye Yu hesitated and commanded behind him.
He Hongfei glanced at this young man with a lot of aura, nodded and left.
The young man called out his last name, at least he knew himself, and Manager Li had just imagined introducing him, proving that it was not Manager Li who told him.
Then how did he know about himself, it really made Ye Yu a little curious.
Ye Yu sat next to the young man, the young man smiled slightly, and said softly: "My name is Zhang Benxing, calligraphy is just a hobby of mine, I thought that there was no one like me in the world, but I didn't expect to meet one today!"
Ye Yu listened, his brows furrowed.
Calligraphy turned out to be his hobby, and he could write so well as a hobby?
Despite his obvious shortcomings, his handwriting is indeed stronger than those of those famous artists, which is obvious to the extreme eye, and there can be absolutely no mistake.
"Ye Yu, you work in an auction company, but you became a jade carving grandmaster in Jieyang six days ago, grandmaster, you are better than me!" he also gave a thumbs up.
"Formally introduce yourself, Zhang Benxing, 28 years old this year, chairman of Asahi Group, fortunately!"
Zhang Benxing stood up again as he spoke, and stretched out his hand towards Ye Yu, Ye Yu hesitated, and also stood up, and the hands of the two were clasped together.
