Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful

Chapter 585: The more intense the competition, the greater the rewards

Jack, who was resting in the office, walked out of the office after hearing the employee's report and saw Wang Zhen and Jiang Zhe visiting the exhibition hall.

He thought for a moment and walked over with a smile. "Mr. Jiang, Ms. Wang, welcome, welcome."

Jiang Zhe didn't expect that Jack would come out to greet him not long after he arrived at the gallery.

"Hello, Mr. Jack. I have always wanted to come here to visit and learn from you. Today I finally have the opportunity."

"You are most welcome. I have been looking forward to your coming. I heard that your personal exhibition will be opening soon, so I would like to congratulate you in advance."

Wang Zhen listened to the conversation between the two. He was worried whether Jiang Zhe could handle this old fox, and was always ready to smooth things over.

Unexpectedly, the greetings between Jack and Jiang Zhe were very natural, as if they had known each other for a long time, without any anger at all.

She was a little surprised, wondering if all men had good acting skills.

Jack led Jiang Zhe and Wang Zhen to visit the gallery, while introducing some of the works represented by the gallery and its past sales records. In his words, he once again invited Jiang Zhe.

Wang Zhen spoke in time to stop the problem.

The gallery's exhibition hall is divided into several floors.

After the visit, Jack treated the two to coffee.

Jiang Zhe directly asked Jack whether he had received an invitation to the opening of the exhibition.

Jack said that he had received the invitation and would definitely attend the event when it opens.

After finishing what he wanted to say, Jiang Zhe politely said goodbye.

Jack walked them to the door of the gallery and watched the two men get into a taxi.

Jack's right-hand man came over and asked, "Boss, what do you think they are doing here? Are they just inviting you?"

Jack put away his smile: "Of course it's not that simple."

"Will you go to his art exhibition? He is just a young painter and not famous enough. We can send an employee to attend the opening ceremony." The assistant suggested.

Jack shook his head: "If he comes in person, I will go too."

"But, the competition between Jiashide and us?"

"Even if there is competition, it can't be too ugly on the surface." Jack said as he walked back to the office.

In the taxi, Wang Zhen felt tired. He had been forcing himself to stay awake. As soon as he got in the taxi, he wanted to sleep for a while.

She closed her eyes and rubbed her brows, thinking about what had just happened, and asked. "You didn't send out invitations when you went to other galleries. Why did you specifically invite Jack? The contracted painters of his gallery have competed with you for orders."

Jiang Zhe said: "Remember. I deliberately invited him to participate.

If we avoid each other, it will appear that we are not strong enough.”

"Are you tired? I am really tired and want to go back and rest." Wang Zhen felt that this matter was not simple, but he really didn't want to use his brain anymore.

Jiang Zhe looked at his watch and said to Wang Zhen, "Okay, the tour is over, go back and rest."

He asked the driver to go directly to the hotel where they were staying.

Seeing Wang Zhen had his eyes closed, he said, "Go to sleep if you're tired. I'll wake you up when we get to the hotel."

Wang Zhen replied: "I really admire you, you have great stamina. I'm already having a headache."

What did she suddenly think of? "You said before that many galleries might be competing against Christie's. Is there any basis for this?"

The two people spoke in their own country's language and did not worry about the driver in front of them understanding.

Jiang Zhe said: "I don't know if my observation is correct. When Pete introduced their business, I found a problem.

In the art market, art auctions should be the secondary market, while galleries belong to the primary market.

When a painting is created, according to the previous practices of the Western art market, it should first enter the gallery and then be sold from the gallery to the customer.

After collecting something for a while, if the client wants to sell it, they will go to an auction house.”

"In the past, most artworks were handled in this way," Wang Zhen said. Jiang Zhe continued, "Now auction houses have also begun to function as galleries, and galleries also buy back works that have been sold from some clients.

There will be competition between the two sides.

I listened to Jack introduce their business. In addition to providing a lot of art collection consulting services to clients, some of the gallery's business clearly overlaps with that of the auction house.

I have a solo exhibition at Christie's, and maybe the gallery will target me. Of course, I hope they don't think I'm a threat."

Wang Zhen thought for a while and said, "You have a point, but we can't give up this opportunity. We have to face the competition head-on."

Back at the hotel, Wang Zhen went to rest.

Jiang Zhe was in his room, turning on the system.

When I came out of Christie's today, the system gave me a prompt.

He read the prompt again:
Your first solo exhibition happened to face competition from several major galleries and auction houses.

Due to special circumstances, the system will issue a certain amount of rewards based on your progress and results in the personal exhibition. Please note that the intensity of competition is also one of the important scoring criteria. The more intense the competition and the higher the difficulty, the more points will be added to your score. Please try your best to do a good job in your first personal exhibition.

When Jiang Zhe saw that there was no new content in the prompt, he closed the system and weighed the pros and cons again and again.

I have chosen to cash in the 200 million reward funds in this art exhibition, and I believe there should be no problem with the system arrangement.

In addition, if the competition is fierce, the system will give you extra points. That is to say, the more intense the competition, the more rewards you will get.

In this case, there is no need to worry about competition.

Because he saw the prompt, he deliberately visited several major galleries.

After thinking about it, the only thing I'm worried about is tomorrow's weather.

He looked out the window. It was still cloudy and the temperature was dropping.

In the evening, Jiang Zhe woke up Wang Zhen and went to the hotel restaurant for dinner.

Wang Zhen was worried: "I asked around. It's really possible that it will snow tomorrow."

Jiang Zhe was eating grilled pork chops with a small dessert on the side.

He ate with relish. After hearing what Wang Zhen said, he wiped his mouth and said, "The date cannot be changed."

"I hope the weather forecast is wrong." Wang Zhen said, "Have you contacted Miller?"

Jiang Zhe said, "While you were resting, I have spoken to Miller on the phone. He will come to the ceremony tomorrow."

Wang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

After dinner, the two returned to their rooms and rested early.

The next morning, Jiang Zhe opened his eyes, got up immediately after waking up, went to the window, opened the curtains and looked outside.

It was completely white outside.

Sure enough, it was snowing. There was snow on the streets and the sky was still gloomy.

Jiang Zhe has the system as his backing, so he is not worried. He also encourages Wang Zhen.

After breakfast, the two rushed to Christie's auction house.

Peter and the Christie's staff were ready. Their faces were still bright and the weather did not affect them.

Pete told Jiang Zhe.

“I have already contacted some clients and they will come on time for the ceremony.

As they were talking, a car pulled up to the company's parking lot.

Peter smiled and said to Jiang Zhe, "The first guest has arrived." (End of this chapter)
