Portable Museum

Chapter 313 Gallery Opening

Zhang Junping didn't speak either, just looked at Chen Lijun meaningfully.

She blushed and her heart beat faster when she saw it.

"Sister Chen, your vinegar smell is quite strong?" Zhang Junping teased with a smile.

"Nonsense, how can I be jealous, how could I be jealous of you!" Chen Lijun shook her head vigorously, and argued.

"Haha...ha!" Seeing Chen Lijun's embarrassed look, Zhang Junping couldn't help laughing.

Chen Lijun's face became more and more red.

She didn't know what was going on, but knowing that Zhang Junping hadn't come back for two days, she felt uncomfortable. When she saw Zhang Junping today, she couldn't bear it any longer. After dinner, she ran to the third floor to look for Zhang Junping.

The first few words were blurted out after seeing Zhang Junping.

They are all adults, and they have not returned home for two days and two nights. It is very clear what this means.

Especially when I saw Zhang Junping today, the aura of irritability in his body because he couldn't be released had disappeared.

This made Chen Lijun even more sure that Zhang Junping hadn't done anything good these two days.

It's just that she forgot one thing, what qualifications does she have to question Zhang Junping.

The relationship between the two is just an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship, so Zhang Junping politely called her Sister Chen.

It has nothing to do with anything else, she isn't even Zhang Junping's next-gen.

"Are you really not jealous? Where did Sister Chen sit just now? The room is full of sourness, I can barely open my eyes." Zhang Junping deliberately sat down next to Chen Lijun while talking.

"Why are you so close to me?" Chen Lijun said coquettishly.

If Chen Lijun didn't want Zhang Junping to be so close, she could stand up and hide.

However, Chen Lijun just said something coquettishly, but she sat there motionless.

Chun heart moved.

In fact, this is normal. All healthy adults will have physiological needs.

As a woman in her thirties, Chen Lijun is in high demand.

If this is in China, it's okay to say, after all, the environment is there, if you don't think about it, you won't be upset.

However, this is in open France, a country where romance is pursued and everyone looks forward to encountering love.

A country with a very high derailment rate.

In such an environment, it is not surprising that something happens.

Just like Zhang Junping, he never messes around in China, even if it is a charming little widow or a seductive young woman, he can hold back.

It's just a few words of rhetoric at most.

Because the domestic environment does not allow him to act recklessly.

But when you go abroad, you naturally let go of yourself.

If you have money, why treat yourself badly?

Just be careful, don't be like Brother Dong, just be danced by a fairy.

In fact, Dong Ge is not a fairy dance. As the controller of such a large company, there is no shortage of women, and there is no need to worry about safety.

If someone wants to mess with him, then this matter will disgust him.

Let me say a digression here, those who work so hard to support their husbands and wives to study abroad are idiots.

You work hard at home to support the family and support them in their studies, but they don't know that they are living a happy life abroad.

A kind of temporary family is very popular abroad, that is, a family formed temporarily by men and women studying abroad.

Living a life like a husband and wife abroad, after returning to China, each of them is well, complementing each other and disturbing each other.

Of course, this is more rational, and some emotional ones are often the separation of wives and children.

Don't think about loyalty, let alone trust.

That's bullshit.

Physiologically lonely and spiritually empty, so in many cases, cheating has nothing to do with morality.

Zhang Junping never thought of himself as a good man, he could only be regarded as a man who cared about his family.

Many people will scold men, saying that men are scumbags, and there is no cat that does not cheat.

But I forgot one thing, there is no fishy smell, where can cats go to steal?
A man's pursuit of a one-night stand, or encounter or something, all these behaviors are inseparable from the cooperation of women.

At this time, Chen Lijun was in this situation, sinking unknowingly.

Zhang Junping's status, wealth, talent, and looks are poison to women.

Knowing that if you take it, you will never recover and you will die, but you still have no hesitation like a moth to a flame.

Zhang Junping doesn't like to eat the grass on the edge of the nest, but now the grass on the edge of the nest is directly delivered to his mouth, if he doesn't eat twice, it will make people look down on him.

Zhang Junping raised Chen Lijun's chin, "I can't see clearly from a distance!"

"Can't see what?"

"I can't see how shy the beauty is!"

……

In the study bedroom on the third floor.

"My 30 years have been in vain!" Chen Lijun sighed inwardly.

He stood up and put on his clothes, planning to leave.

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

"If I don't leave, I will be discovered, how can I live?"

"What time is it? It's not too late to leave until four or five o'clock tomorrow."

"I'm afraid that if it's too late, I won't be able to walk." Chen Lijun muttered in her heart, put on her clothes and left without hesitation.

The next day, Zhang Junping arranged for someone to buy invitations.

Start writing the invitation.

It opened on Saturday, and Parisian socialites all gave an invitation.

Whether you will come or not is another matter. If you don't send invitations to others, you will easily offend them.

During the day, Chen Lijun avoided Zhang Junping.

Zhang Junping was busy thinking about who to invite and writing the invitation letter, but he didn't care.

After a busy day, Zhang Junping finally finished writing all the invitation letters, including the so-called friends he met at the party.

There is also a list provided by George Fairburn, celebrities in both political and business circles, the so-called upper class.

Although Zhang Junping is not very interested in the so-called upper class, he has to admit.

They are the mainstream consumers of galleries and art companies.

It's all God, so give them some face.

In the evening, Chen Lijun didn't come over, and Zhang Junping didn't care.

Concentrate on creating.

Now, Zhang Junping basically follows the rhythm of one oil painting a day.

It is much slower than before, but it has surpassed 90.00% of [-] oil painters.

Because, for the vast majority of oil painters, it is normal to create two or three works a month, and more than five works are considered high-yield painters.

After finishing today's creation, Zhang Junping washed and went to bed, glanced at the oil paintings on the wall, and went to sleep.

It seems absurd, since he cares about his family and misses his family all the time, how can he mess around.

In fact, human thinking has always been complex and contradictory.

Life is a combination of contradictions.

Just like last night, Zhang Junping didn't go back to the master bedroom to sleep, this is home.

Outsiders are not allowed to enter.

After a good night's dream, Zhang Junping arranged for someone to courier all the invitation letters the next day.

In the afternoon, Zhang Junping brought the people from the security office to the store together with the artwork.

At this time, the clerks had already cleaned the store, inside and out, up and down, and wiped it spotless.

"Girls, the art has arrived, let's work together and put things on it."

The gallery side is relatively simple, just hang the paintings on the wall directly, and the positions of the paintings are also fixed.

During the decoration, the position of the painting has been fixed, and there are lighting renderings around it.

This was specially designed by Zhang Junping. Each painting has four beams of light shining on it.

Make sure that the oil painting is under enough bright light without the shadow of the light.

The China Impression Art Store, too, has professional display counters, which are set up with reference to the art booths of later generations.

Some showcases stand against the wall, while others stand alone in the middle of the shop.

No matter which counter it is, ensure that there is enough light.

There is a scientific basis for the fact that light can enhance the image of a work of art.

Seeing more than 60 shop assistants busy placing handicrafts and hanging paintings, Zhang Junping showed a satisfied smile.

After working for such a long time, it is finally about to open, and the most important step has been taken.

The workers from China, after a period of adaptation, seem to be completely reborn.

Transformed into an urban beauty, she is full of youthful vigor and full of self-confidence.

This is a change brought about by the environment.

Seeing a different world, they not only improved their English a lot while getting along with the French clerk, they also learned how to make up with the French clerk.

The employees who were originally above the standard line became more beautiful after being dressed one by one.

The security department and other male employees were fascinated.

Compared with the passionate French girls, these Chinese guys still like the reserved Chinese girls.

As for these, as long as they are not fooling around and talking about serious people, Zhang Junping doesn't care.

It's the same set again, only the state officials are allowed to set fires and the people are not allowed to light lamps.

"Old Zhou, arrange the people on duty. From now on, no one can leave the two stores for 24 hours." Zhang Junping explained to Zhou Yan.

"Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!" Zhou Yan saluted.

"Old Zhou, we're not in the army now, so relax. Don't lose the spirit of the army, but don't take what you learned from the army into society." Zhang Junping smiled and patted Zhou Yan on the shoulder.

"On the third floor, there are two offices for your security department, a duty room and a duty lounge."

"Thank you, manager, for being so considerate for us."

Just now Zhou Yan looked up and down the two stores and knew that the third floor is the office area.

However, the area is limited. Except for a general manager's office, two store manager's offices, and the duty room of their security department is a separate room, the rest are open public office areas.

Zhou Yan is already very content with two rooms.

"Manager, each store has two security guards on the front line and two security guards on the second line. The first line is on duty at the door, and the second line is on duty in the duty room. Do you think it's okay?"

"Yes!" Zhang Junping nodded.

This is the most prosperous area in Paris, and it is also the area with the best security situation. There are four security guards 24 hours a day, enough to deal with emergencies.

Time flies, and it is the day when galleries and art shops open.

All the clerks changed into cheongsams. The cheongsams were cut down to the thighs and paired with flesh-colored stockings, which made the already plump and pretty figure even more attractive and dazzling.

Many lsps want to rush in without waiting for the opening ceremony, just to see the beauties in cheongsams.

Naturally, I was taken back by the security guard at the door,

At eight o'clock, the lion dance team arrived at the scene.

Zhang Junping specifically contacted the lion dancers. Although the Chinese in Chinatown in Paris are all from Southeast Asia, many traditional things have been handed down.

Zhang Junping applied to the city hall through George Fairburn, and invited two lion dance teams to perform Caiji.

The two lions performed a lion fighting performance, along with two bamboo poles, and after a thrilling fight on the bamboo poles, one of the lions picked the red envelope hanging high on the plaque and completed the harvest.

Caiji is also called Caiqing, and what they want is a lucky head. At first, it was green vegetable leaves, but later it was changed to red envelopes.

"Dear Zhang! It's so exciting! Is this magic?" George Fairburne excitedly said to Zhang Junping while clapping his hands.

George Fairburn was one of the first guests to come, and the others hadn't arrived yet, or hadn't come here, watching the lion dance performance below.

"It's not magic, it's Chinese Kung Fu." Zhang Junping nodded. It was the first time he had seen such a wonderful lion dance performance.

What's on TV doesn't count.

The wonderful lion dance performance attracted many people, because today is Saturday, there are already many tourists, and many tourists stopped to watch the performance.

Such a lion dance performance is rare on the Champs Elysees.

Coupled with the fact that there were two rows of beauties in cheongsam standing at the door, it attracted many lsps to stop and watch.

Lion dance to pick auspiciousness, whether it is to take off the red envelope, or to remove the red cloth covered on the plaque.

This is the completion of the entire opening process.

It is only galleries that open today, art shops open tomorrow.

Tomorrow, there will be another lion dance performance, where two lions compete for the top and pick greens.

Zhang Junping let George Fairburn and his party into the store.

At this time, a group of old people in Tang suits and some Chinese in suits came over.

Zhang Junping hurried up to meet him, holding the hand of the leading old man with both hands, "Old Yang, welcome! I didn't expect you to come in person, it really makes the shop flourish!"

"Haha! Little friend, the opening of the China Gallery, how can we old guys not come to such an important event?" Yang Yeming laughed and held Zhang Junping's hand, and patted it vigorously.

Then introduce him to the others behind him.

Zhang Junping didn't know many people even though he had sent out the invitation letter.

"Thank you, seniors, for being able to attend the grand opening ceremony of the small shop in your busy schedule." Zhang Junping said politely, shaking hands with the visitors one by one to say hello.

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhang Junping let Yang Yeming and others into the store.

At this time, another guest arrived.

It was Carlson who walked over with several art dealers Zhang Junping met at the party.

"Welcome, welcome! Mr. Carlson, Mr. Cruise, Mr. Fernandez...Welcome everyone." Zhang Junping stepped forward to greet each of them.

"Dear Zhang, congratulations on the opening of your gallery!
Chinese artworks have always been loved by collectors, and I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate. "Carlson warmly hugged Zhang Junping.

Zhang Junping already knew through George Fairborn that this Carlson in front of him was not just a simple art dealer or collector.

Carlson is also the third largest shareholder of Christie's and has the right to speak in Christie's.

"Of course, I believe that we will have many opportunities for cooperation!" Zhang Junping laughed.

His art company must have dealings with auction houses.

How to reflect the value of artwork?The bidding price of the auction house is one of the important basis.

Raising the price through the auction house is a routine that almost all art dealers are engaged in. It is very old-fashioned, but very practical.

"This is Mr. Cordoba, the independent director of Sotheby's auction house, and also my old friend and old competitor.

His market is mainly on the Bald Eagle side. "Carlson introduced another person to Zhang Junping.

Zhang Junping smiled and shook hands with the other party for a few words of greeting, and exchanged business cards.

They are all in the Bald Eagle Country, and they are all engaged in the art business on the Bald Eagle. One is a shareholder of Christie's, and the other is an independent director of Sotheby's. They are really old competitors.

There are still many people behind, rushing to galleries and art shops one after another.

The reason why so many people were able to invite to join in the show was due to Zhang Junping's personal charm.

Zhang Junping's "36 Styles of Rural Scenery" series of oil paintings have been widely spread, and people who have seen the oil paintings commented that the oil paintings of "36 Styles of Rural Scenery" are no worse than those painted by Rubens himself, whether in terms of style or use of color It's all very imaginative.

Even in terms of conception, it has more artistic charm than Rubens' "Pastoral Scenery".

Such a talented artist, everyone is naturally willing to make friends.

Coupled with the lion dance performance just now, it attracted a group of individual customers to visit the store.

The guests who received the invitation will buy a piece of art more or less, and those individual visitors basically see more and buy less.

After all, the calligraphy and paintings sold in the gallery are all works of art, and the price will not be too low.

Zhang Junping set prices according to different levels and reputations, ranging from hundreds of thousands for a high price to thousands of low ones.

The most expensive ones are Zhang Junping's calligraphy and paintings. Each work is priced at more than one million yuan, depending on the size of the page.

Units are French francs.

After closing the shop at night, Chen Lijun found Zhang Junping excitedly.

"Manager, guess how much you sold today?"

"Don't avoid me anymore?" Zhang Junping teased.

"What are you doing, talking about business!" Chen Lijun blushed and said coquettishly to Zhang Junping.

"How much?" Zhang Junping asked cooperatively.

"More than 380 million francs!" When this figure was mentioned, Chen Lijun couldn't help but get excited again.

"Okay!"

"What's okay, one thousand more than three million francs a day, how much is this month?" Chen Lijun counted on her fingers for a long time but couldn't figure it out, and finally gave up altogether.

"If this continues, our company will get rich, and we will be able to build a dormitory building by the end of the year." Chen Lijun looked forward to it.

Chen Lijun also lives in a courtyard house, and she still lives with her mother-in-law. Three generations of seven people live in two houses. Seeing that the two sons are mostly twelve or thirteen years old, and the daughter is seven or eight years old, it is very inconvenient.

Therefore, I have long been looking forward to building a dormitory building, dividing a house, and then moving out.

"Miss Chen, wake up!
Even if you don't look at it, the reason why you can sell so much money today is because of the guests and friends who came to congratulate, and the individual customers didn't sell a few pieces at all. "Zhang Junping couldn't bear to wake up Chen Lijun.

This fact is really cruel.

According to Zhang Junping's estimation, if he can achieve profit within half a year, it will be a high-spirited business.

"Ah?!" Chen Lijun said disappointedly.

"It's okay, we're not very famous now, take your time, we'll get better in the future!" Zhang Junping comforted with a smile.

　Sorry, I went home last night to accompany my child and hand in homework by the way, so there is no update.
