Chapter 238 Blackmailing me again?

"Sanxi Hall, Yuanmingyuan, Prince Gong's Mansion, Secret Collection of Neifu, Beauty Like Jade, Great Ming Relics, Scholar's Residence, Tathagata, Handed down Classics, Dafeng Hall, Eternal Wendi, Five Great Treasures, Two Kings Fatie!"

Wu Tianyuan and Hu Jianmin looked at the rearranged exhibition hall with satisfaction and were extremely proud!In particular, several important exhibition halls, such as the Old Summer Palace, handed down classics, Erwang Fatie, and five rare porcelains, shocked the audience.

"Old Ren has already started to book tickets for the first day on our official website. Through various channels of publicity, coupled with your reputation as a national hero, 10 tickets were sold out in less than [-] minutes, faster than a celebrity concert!"

Wu Tianyuan nodded, 1 people is already the limit, if it wasn't for the first day of opening to the outside world, it would be best to limit it to 3000 people.Otherwise, it will affect the effect of the visit. The security has been upgraded several times to be foolproof, as long as it is not a top thief like the black fox.

"Both the Forbidden City and the National Palace Museum in Taipei have agreed to send the Qingming Riverside Map and the Fuchun Mountain Dwelling Map three days in advance to participate in this once-in-a-century joint exhibition. Zhejiang is applying for it, so it's not a big problem. After all, we have lent them five sets Ten scenic spots of the West Lake, after all, they made a lot of money!"

Lao Ren smiled, and the three of them checked for the last time that there was no problem. They worked hard for the past few months just for the day of the official opening.This is the spiritual wealth belonging to the entire nation, and we must let the public understand the wisdom of the ancients.In the future, visitors under the age of 16 will be free to visit, in order to let future generations know the greatness of our ancestors.

"What invitation letter did Jiashide send me?"

Wu Tianyuan looked curiously at the invitation letter that Sun Yuyao had just brought, his expression changed as soon as he opened it, and he became thoughtful.

"You saw it too, it turned out to be Tang Yan Lide's painting of going up the river during the Qingming Festival! The earliest painting of going up the river during the Qingming Festival in history."

Wu Tianyuan didn't speak. He looked at the bronzing invitation letter. It stated that it was a private auction. It must be the same as the last time in Yuanmingyuan. There were only a few big collectors, but this time the target was more obvious. It was aimed at himself. Everyone knew that Tianyuan was going to open soon. , I have four sets of Qingming Shanghe pictures in my hand, what a coincidence that this set appeared!

"I have inquired that this painting appeared in Jiashide once 60 years ago, but it has never appeared again. It is estimated that they have kept it private until now, and it happened to be used against us!"

Wu Tianyuan looked at Sun Yuyao's indignant expression, and said with a smile: "Needless to say it's so serious! It's not enough to deal with us, but this time is well chosen, it's just to kill us hard!"

"Should we accept the offer? The base price of this painting is only 2 million yuan. If it is really auctioned, it will definitely not work without three or four hundred million yuan!"

Wu Tianyuan stood up, went to the window to stare for a while, and said with a smile: "Shanshui meets again. I haven't settled the account with Jiashide for the Yuanmingyuan auction last time. This time I will do this trick again? Hmph, it's not sure who is blackmailing whom." !"

Wu Tianyuan called Wang Hong and asked her to collect all the information on Jiashide, and then notified Jenny, asking her to get in touch as quickly as possible, and let her do something.

"Your trick is really ruthless! You grabbed Wu Tianyuan's neck all of a sudden, I want to see how he chooses?"

Chen Dongsheng laughed and looked at the middle-aged man sitting across from him. Lewis, the head of the largest auction house in the world, has controlled Jiashide for more than 20 years. Its current achievements are all due to his hard work. It can be said that it is the top in the auction circle. The presence.

Lewis explained in his not-so-fluent Chinese: "I heard that the kid was collecting the Qingming Shanghe map and the Fuchun mountain residence map, that is to say, he has the ability to put together four sets, which I have to admire. This Tang version It is the earliest surviving work describing the mountains and rivers of the Qingming Dynasty, and its historical value and investment value are top-notch, even if he doesn’t want it, others are rushing to take it.”

Chen Dongsheng looked at Lewis with some envy. This is the background of the top auction house, and he is still far behind Jiade. Over 200 years have accumulated not only huge personal connections, but even the collections in his hands are astronomical!

In fact, the largest collector in the collection circle is Jiashide Auction House. Every year tens of thousands of auction items are traded by them, and the really good works are kept privately.Even if there are 250 pieces per year, after [-] years, there will be tens of thousands of masterpieces!

Domestic auctions have a history of less than 30 years, and there is a huge difference at all. The transaction volume mainly depends on the sales of our own people.Whether it is the scale or the degree of standardization, there are still question marks in the hearts of collectors around the world.

To put it bluntly, even Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan don't come to the mainland to raise placards, let alone Westerners!
Lewis drank his red wine in satisfaction and said, "As long as Wu Tianyuan makes a move, he must pay at least [-] million! I heard that he is very rich, but [-] million is not too expensive, right?"

The outside world has always been curious about Wu Tianyuan's source of funds. Although there is a Tianyuan Club around him, it seems that he contributed most of the money himself.It is often hundreds of millions of dollars to buy collections, and the limelight has long surpassed Liu Yiqian, becoming the No. 1 local tyrant in the domestic art circle.

"Dear Chen, we are looking for money, not anger! There is an old saying in your country that harmony makes money!"

Lewis said with a smile: "Wu Tianyuan is a talent, even I admire it very much. As an opponent, we must pay attention to this! But isn't his recent behavior the same as ours? Collect funds, choose modern art, open up channels, integrate resources, In the end, hype and make a lot of money!"

Chen Dongsheng nodded first, then shook his head and said, "The method is the same, but the purpose is different! That kid's goal is Europe and Japan. To put it bluntly, he uses various methods to make money from foreigners."

"Hahaha, that's more interesting!"

Lewis said excitedly: "Money can never be made, everyone's money is the same, I'm so curious about this kid, if I have a chance to meet and chat, if we can work together, then..."

"Impossible!" Chen Dongsheng resolutely said: "I proposed cooperation several times, but he always refused, not to mention your suggestion of the culprit, I advise you to give up as soon as possible!"

"Not necessarily!"

Lewis said to himself: "Wu Tianyuan is still young, and he hasn't really come into contact with the power behind this world, the power that is so powerful that it makes you despair!"

Chen Dongsheng was shocked, and began to worry about Wu Tianyuan. As an opponent, he very much recognized that young man.Especially the last time I talked about it, after all, he is also a Chinese. He had to do a lot of bad things in the first half of his life, and he always wanted to make up for some mistakes when he was old.

There is retribution and karma in this world, and Kuang Guoqiang is a living example.From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want Wu Tianyuan to be wiped out, this feeling was very contradictory.

Lewis looked at Chen Dongsheng meaningfully, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, it's so easy for an opponent to appear, I also want to play a few more rounds. It's too boring recently, and it's rare to have something to excite me, hehe!"

Chen Dongsheng looked at Lewis' wide-mouthed smile, and immediately thought of the origin of the word gluttony.Zhou Ding wrote about gluttony, which has a head but no body, cannibalize people without swallowing it, harming its body, and repaying it with words.

"Shen Yi Jing Southwest Wilderness Classic": There is a man in the southwest, with a hairy body, wearing a pig on his head, greedy like a wolf, likes to accumulate wealth for himself, and does not eat people's valleys, the strong rob the old and the weak, fear the group and hit the single, the name It is called Taotie.

Its biggest feature is that it can be eaten.It is an imaginary mythical monster.This kind of monster has no body because he can eat too much and eat his own body. There is only one big head and one big mouth. He is very greedy and eats himself in the end.It is a symbol of greed, so it is often used to describe people who are gluttonous or greedy.
