God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 1100 Scary circle of friends
In fact, there are ugly calligraphers not only in the calligraphy circle, but also in the art circle, antique circle, sculpture circle, entertainment circle, and even all walks of life in society.

These people have different ways of pretending to be ugly, but the purpose is the same, to be famous and then to make money.

In today's society, fame is equal to cash. For example, those actresses in the entertainment industry who hype gossip every day are typical examples. What is the picture of a piece of crap with red lips that "everyone tastes" who is forced to smile under the spotlight with such a bad reputation all day long?Still not exposure?
And exposure is almost equivalent to cash. If you go to a show to attend an opening ceremony or something, you can get hundreds of thousands or millions. This speed of making money is really insignificant compared to such a bad reputation.

It is not difficult to imagine how terrible the profit brought by fame is from a certain actress who took out [-] million yuan.As for the bad reputation accumulated in the past, who cares?If it doesn't work, you can still wash it. If you don't wash it once, you can wash it several times. Anyway, if you have money, you can summon a lot of water troops to wash the ground.

Of course, if this kind of thing is done too much, the public will only become more and more disgusted.

But there are too many people who can't hold back those who want to be famous. When there are too many people, they can always come up with some fresh ugly tricks to attract the attention of the public.

For example, in the first few years in the entertainment circle, it was just hyping up scandals, but looking at it now, the tricks of the hype should not be too bizarre, such as fans pinching each other, suing the old club, coming out and then refusing rumors, and playing tricks. After the big name is reversed, after fighting for the C position, they fall in love with sisters, plus all kinds of weird character designs, it really makes people dazzled and unable to stop.

So, in the final analysis, the word "profit" is still at work.

However, this society is originally such a society that puts personal interests above all else. If people pursue personal interests without breaking the law, what can you say?
Sometimes when I think about it, I even sympathize with those individuals.

But understanding is understanding, Xu Jingxing absolutely cannot accept that kind of behavior. It is okay to be famous, but he must not be famous by pretending to be crazy, acting stupid, and acting ugly, because it will not only destroy his personal reputation, but also the reputation of the entire industry.

For example, since those "ugly calligraphers" were born, the word "calligrapher" has also become a derogatory term, and even the meaning of the word "calligraphy" has changed, sometimes not quite I am ashamed to tell people that I also practice calligraphy, because when it comes to calligraphy, the public will first think of those ugly "ugly calligraphers". After a long time, this profession will really stink.

To put it more seriously, those "ugly calligraphers" not only ruined their personal reputation, but also ruined the jobs of the entire calligraphy practitioners.

Therefore, Xu Jingxing has always been very contemptuous of those black sheep. You can pursue your own interests, but you can't smash the big guys to eat together for the little profit in front of you.

It's just that there is no other good way out of contempt. If someone wants to act ugly, how can he stop it?

Not to mention that Xu Jingxing has no official position, even an industry leader like Yang Shouyun has nothing to do when he encounters such a situation. If the other party is a member of the association, at best he will be expelled from the association. If the other party is not the association All Yang Shouyun can do is sigh secretly or make complaints in front of his friends and colleagues, just like he is now.

Xu Jingxing waved goodbye after complaining a few words, and drove back to Nanchizi Street with his grandparents.

On the way, Yu Yinan asked nervously, "Jing Xing, did you remember anything?"

Xu Jingxing smiled wryly and shook his head, "Nothing."

"No hurry, no hurry, let's continue to visit tomorrow, visit more relatives and friends from the past, maybe we will remember it sometime," Yu Yinan quickly comforted.

Obviously, the old couple took him to Yang Shouyun's house to visit, with the purpose of stimulating his memory in this way and wanting to restore his memory.In other words, this is also a method, but Xu Jingxing always felt that this method might not work well for him, but he really couldn't refuse the old couple's kindness.

So the next day, he still followed the old couple around the capital, but the people who visited afterwards were not as interesting as Yang Shouyun. Everyone was enthusiastic, but it seemed a bit polite and stylized, so Xu Jingxing just sat down and chatted briefly. just go.

But let’s not talk about it, the Gu family’s network is really rich and terrifying. These days, there are basically no common people’s families, most of them are political families, some are in business, and the rest are from all walks of life. elite.

Rao Xu Jingxing had been mentally prepared for this situation, but after the real family came over, he still couldn't help feeling deeply moved.

That is to say, the current Gu family has no younger generation in politics, otherwise, just these personal connections can pile up high-ranking officials. If the younger generation's own ability is strong enough, it is not unimaginable to go further.

In fact, a few days ago, Gu Anren also secretly asked Xu Jingxing if he had any plans to enter politics, meaning that if he had such thoughts, he would make arrangements for him.

Unfortunately, he was really not interested, so he refused without hesitation.

Afterwards, Gu Anren didn't bring up this topic again, but when he took him to visit, there were many fewer families engaged in politics, but more merchant families.

Of course, no matter what these families do, they all have an unusual relationship with the Gu family, and they all had a certain intersection with him when he was young. After all, the purpose of Gu Anren and Yu Yinan bringing him around was to wake him up in this way. His memory, rather than simply accumulating contacts for him.

So every time he visits a family, he will have some more uncles, aunts, grandparents, brothers, sisters, etc. After half a month, the number of his WeChat friends has soared from about 500 to more than 100. There is no way, these relatives and friends are all One string after another, one can pull out a large string. When I went to Tang Yuying's house the day before yesterday, Tang Yuying dragged her into the family group. Good guy, as soon as he showed up, there were more than [-] friend requests. He applied voluntarily after learning his identity.

And he still can't refuse, because those people are inextricably linked with the Gu family and Yu family. Although it sounds far away, they are indeed relatives after careful examination. How can he refuse?

Of course, he is so popular because of Gu Anren's favor. Even though Gu Anren has been pushed down now, the Gu family's belief is not prosperous, and it seems that he is about to withdraw from that circle, but the Gu family's connections are still there, and It was an energy that no one could ignore.

The old couple of Gu Anren had always kept a low profile, they couldn't get involved if they wanted to, and they didn't dare to talk casually.

Now that there is a grandson of Gu Anren, and he is the only grandson, those people naturally don't think they don't know anything, because they are very clear that the grandson of the Gu family has a high probability of inheriting that huge network of energy. An Ren's grandson did not become an official, and that is not something that those small families can ignore.

Compared with those small families, the Gu family has always been a giant-like existence. Although this giant has lost a lot of weight now, its size is there, right?
Therefore, Xu Jingxing, the grandson of Gu Anren, really caused quite a stir in a short period of time, especially in those small families that are inextricably linked with the Gu family, so that he later In the past few days, I received many invitations, either for food and drink, or for entertainment. Some people found out his detailed information and sent him deals, asking him to make furniture and woodcarvings. Invite him to go to Hetian for a self-driving tour and get some good jade along the way.

Faced with all kinds of unexpected things, he had a great headache, and he refused decisively. He didn't agree to any of them, and only said that he had something to do now.

Of course, it’s not a lie for him to say that, because he does have something to do. First, his big courtyard house has a general framework, and it’s ready for basic decoration, which requires his participation. No problem, but after all, it cost a lot of money. If you don't pay attention to it, I really don't feel at ease, and some of the links have to be done by him personally.

For example, he had to make the copying gallery by himself, even the blueprints were designed and drawn by him, and the selection of materials also required him to do it himself. It wasn't that he was free to find things for himself, but that it involved precious wood. It's no small matter. To make a circle of Chaoshou veranda requires at least two or three tons of mahogany, as much as five or six tons. With such a large demand, there is a lot of room for mischief.

For example, say red sandalwood, there are so many varieties of rosewood, the price of a ton ranges from ten thousand yuan to one million yuan, and even the same variety of rosewood will vary due to different factors such as origin, quality and grade. Selling at different prices, if he is targeted by someone with a heart, he can quietly and easily cheat him of hundreds of thousands or even millions of cash.

He doesn't want to be cheated on this kind of thing.

You know, there are many places where precious mahogany is used in the reconstruction and decoration of the courtyard house. In addition to the verandah, there are all kinds of solid wood furniture, doors and windows.

Of course, if you really want to calculate it, a dozen or twenty tons of mahogany is not that expensive. After all, his renovation funds are more than 3000 million, and it is nothing to add a few million to 1000 million.

Moreover, it is impossible for him to use all the super expensive mahogany like red sandalwood. If small-leaf red sandalwood is used as the material, many pieces of material are needed to make a door.

Although the solid wood door put together can also be used, it always feels not as good as an aniseed one.
