Chapter 22 Qi Baishi's Shrimp?
"Tianyuan, it's your turn to do the appraisal in the company today. As long as the guests come to let us take care of them, you will be in charge."

Old Yu told Wu Tianyuan early in the morning: "Your eyesight is absolutely fine, but you have to pay attention, that is, the way you speak should be more tactful!"

Lao Yu sighed: "You know, the market is basically full of fakes now, and I haven't seen a real thing for a month! Many people come here with great hopes, but the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Once a retired old man bought a blue and white porcelain with his life savings, but it turned out to be a modern imitation, not even a high imitation. He passed out on the spot and was sent to the hospital!"

Wu Tianyuan nodded and said with a smile: "Uncle Yu, don't worry, I know how to measure, if I'm young and old, I must speak slowly, don't scare them."

Lao Yu patted Wu Tianyuan on the shoulder in satisfaction. This kid was calm and at ease.Then go out with other people to contact customers. Although the spring auction is over, there are at least a few small special sales every month, and each appraiser has to collect collections.Cooperating with the business department and the marketing department for door-to-door appraisal, I am very busy every day.

"By the way, Vice President Liu of the company said hello in advance today, saying that a friend is coming to appraise calligraphy and paintings, and you are in charge of receiving them. I happen to have something to do, thank you for your hard work!"

Before Lao Li left the house, he suddenly told Wu Tianyuan that Liu was always the second in command of the company and didn't know much about antiques, but he had a wide network and was good at capital operations. He was second only to Sun Zhongzheng in the top management.

"Yeah. I know!"

Wu Tianyuan didn't even raise his head. He didn't have any good feelings for Li Hongfei. He made it difficult for him to interview, and even charged black money to operate in secret.Now they are all appraisers, so naturally they don't have a good face.

Li Hongfei's anger flashed, he turned around and left, now Wu Tianyuan is a big celebrity, the treasure in Sun Lao's eyes.Needless to say, the eyesight is good, the luck is good, and one spring auction can earn tens of millions!He is not Li Yang's stunned young man, he is a fool when he confronts head-on, he has a bright future ahead!

Wu Tianyuan tidied up and went to the conference room to wait for the guests to come. In fact, there were tricks in the company appraisal.For example, if there is a real product coming to your door, would you say it?Saying that it is the company's business, I can at most give a verbal praise.

If you don't say it, contact privately, it may be a leak!But this kind of thing can't be done often, the circle is small, and it's easy to slip through.Once discovered, your reputation will be ruined, and no one will use you for identification.

"Old man, this plate of yours is not real. Yes, it is not from the Qianlong period! It should be the Republic of China, and it is also an old object for decades. Yes, it is worth ten to twenty thousand!"

"This is a modern imitation! It's the same for how much you sell it for. Well, whatever you want, our company won't accept it!"

Wu Tianyuan picked up six or seven guests in the morning, none of them were original products, the oldest one was just an imitation from the Republic of China, he stood up and stretched himself, and was about to get off work for dinner.

"Xiao Wu, it's just right that you are here, come and see this!" As soon as the door opened, a fat man in his 40s came in with a smile and a kind face.Followed by a young man with an arrogant look on his face.

"Hi Mr. Liu, let me take a look!"

Wu Tianyuan saw that it was Liu Ming, the company's second-in-command. Chun Pai had met him a few times, but he hadn't said a word.Not all the way, he is mainly in charge of the business department and the marketing department.Mr. Sun is in charge of the appraisal department, auction department, and finance department. The two have also cooperated for many years and made money together.

"Qi Baishi's shrimp?"

Wu Tianyuan opened the scroll, and it turned out to be Master Qi Baishi's Fish and Shrimp Picture, which is his most common work.Qi Baishi has the most aquatic tribes, followed by mountains and rivers, and the fewest figures.Moreover, the old man Baishi is a professional painter who makes a living by selling paintings. The most conservative estimate is that there are [-] works in existence.

Therefore, the price varies greatly. Some of the same square feet are tens of millions, and some are 10,000+!It depends on whether it is a boutique masterpiece or a general entertainment work.

"He's an appraiser? Is that okay?"

The young people who followed saw Wu Tianyuan, who was about the same age as him, and asked Liu Ming a little dissatisfied.

"Young Master Li, don't worry, Xiao Wu's eyesight is first-class even though he is young!" Liu Ming said flatteringly: "Last week's spring auction, the Gu Jingzhou stone pot that he picked up was sold for 1000 million! It is our most powerful appraiser."

"Really?" When Li Shao heard this, he looked at Wu Tianyuan in surprise, and said with a smile, "Okay, trust you once!" Then he turned and sat on the sofa, playing with his mobile phone by himself.

Liu Ming walked to Wu Tianyuan's side, and said in a low voice: "This is a well-known son, if the company asks his father for something, just tell the truth! Then you will pay a high price, and don't worry about other things!"

Wu Tianyuan felt nauseated, there are unspoken rules everywhere?Isn't this sending money secretly?But anyway, he was also the vice president, so he didn't speak, so he looked at the painting first.

"What is this?" Wu Tianyuan frowned at the first glance, let alone listening with his ears, he knew it was a fake painting at a glance!And it's rubbish without any technical content, the shrimp is soft, the fish rolls its eyes, even if you draw it yourself, it is better than it.

"Mr. Liu, isn't this too fake?" Wu Tianyuan gestured to Liu Ming with his eyes, and said in a low voice.

Mr. Liu's dissatisfaction flashed, and he said in a low voice: "Don't worry about it! Just follow the truth, and I will be responsible for the rest!"

Wu Tianyuan's heart sank, and he said dissatisfied: "You can't say that, you are responsible? After the appraisal, I need to sign for confirmation, and I will bear the blame for everything that happens in the future. How can you be responsible?"

"You!" Liu Ming was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly became angry. He is a dignified vice president, how dare a newcomer refuse to listen to what he explained?

But at this time, you can't break your face, suppress your anger and say again: "This kind of thing happens often, don't worry, I say it's okay, it's okay!"

Wu Tianyuan turned around and took out a piece of paper, handed it to Liu Ming and said, "No problem, please leave a proof for Mr. Liu, so I can have an explanation in the future, everything else is fine!"

"Hey, old Liu, it seems that your vice president's words are not working!" The young man had heard the two people muttering, stood up with a smile, and said with some disdain.

"Wu Tianyuan, you're just an appraiser, I'm the vice president, I can do whatever I ask you to do, what nonsense!"

Liu Ming's face darkened. Except for Sun Zhongzheng, everyone in the company considered himself a high-ranking employee.Now there is a newcomer who is disobedient, and still slaps his face naked in front of Li Shao!
Wu Tianyuan smiled lightly, and wrote casually: "I am an appraiser and belong to the Appraisal Department, so I shouldn't belong to your deputy manager Liu, right?"

Looking at Fatty Liu's twitching fat face, Wu Tianyuan continued: "The appraisal is to bear the responsibility, and if something happens, it will damage my reputation! This kind of rubbish is not even a high-quality imitation, and I would feel ashamed if it spreads." !"

"Okay, okay!" Liu Ming was in a panic. For many years, no one dared to talk to him like this. He stared at Wu Tianyuan, and gave an ultimatum: "I'll ask you one last time, will you identify or not?"

Wu Tianyuan packed up his things, saw that it was time for dinner after get off work, answered lazily, turned around and left the meeting room.Liu Ming, who was furious, and Li Shao, who was smiling, were left behind.

"Forget it, Liu Ming, it seems that you are nothing more than that in the company! I won't force you, just wait about your son and talk about it later!"

Li Shao patted Liu Ming, and left with a smirk on his face, it doesn't matter, some people ask him to do things, this one is not bad!
"Wu Tianyuan! Just wait!"

Liu Ming patted the table vigorously, trembling with anger. Originally, he wanted to use the company relationship to help his son find a good job.This kind of thing has been done by Lao Li and Li Yang several times without any problems. It is difficult for Sun Zhongzheng to find out if he puts it in the warehouse casually.

As a result, Lao Li was in a hurry today, and he said hello to Wu Tianyuan, Liu Ming couldn't have imagined that he would be ashamed if he was beaten to death!It's really maddening for a dignified vice president to be taught a lesson by a newcomer!
"What? Wu Tianyuan really didn't give you face?"

At noon, Lao Li was called to the office by Liu Ming. He really had something to do in the morning, but he didn't expect this to be the result?
"That Wu Tianyuan is really shameless! A newcomer dares not to listen to me. I will tell the HR department in the afternoon to fire him immediately!"

Liu Ming hated him hard, he really lost face today, how will Young Master Li see himself in the future?The son's business is definitely out of the question!
When Li Hongfei heard this, he smiled wryly and said, "Mr. Liu, don't say I hit you, everyone else can be fired. Wu Tianyuan, are you really unable to move?"

"What?" Liu Ming was startled, he was not a fool, after he got angry, he also confused Wu Tianyuan for being so bold?Now that Li Hongfei said it, he asked.

"Wu Tianyuan didn't want to come here himself, but Sun Zhongzheng personally invited him to come here!"

Li Hongfei explained the matter to Liu Ming in detail, and finally warned: "I said something that is not pleasant, and now Sun Zhongzheng has noticed it, especially that girl Sun Yuyao also came to the company, and Lao Yu, a few people put The Appraisal Department is staring at me! Not to mention others, my money has been cut off a lot!"

"This Wu Tianyuan has amazing eyesight, and Sun Zhongzheng trusts him very much. He planned the Xie preview exhibition alone, and even Xie Rongcheng fell into a big stumble. Mr. Liu, you have to think twice?"

After hearing this, Liu Ming's face was gloomy, and it took him a long time to say: "Then forget it this time?"

Li Hongfei said with a sinister smile: "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge! Don't be in a hurry, now it's not just us, but that kid Li Yang is also Wu Tianyuan's deadly enemy! Let's let him take the lead and find a chance to kill that kid at once, isn't it? Not happy?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Liu Ming returned to normal after all, and said with a smile, "Now is the time when the company employs people, so naturally we can't waste talents, right? By the way, let's sit together at night?"

"No problem, there just happens to be a client who also wants to chat with Mr. Liu, let's have a few drinks after get off work!"
