Chapter 243 Three-pronged approach
"Tianyuan Art Network?"

Today is the regular meeting time of Tianyuanhui, just after everyone participated in the opening ceremony of the museum, everyone sat down together.

"I discussed with Xiao Ma and Li Yanming, and we plan to jointly build the largest art trading platform in China!"

Ma Yun explained: "With Alibaba as the credit foundation, Du Niang as the search platform, and Penguin's huge customer base and channels, the combination of the three established a complete art trading network within one month."

Li Yanming added: "Not only transactions, but also forums, lectures, and various online and offline themed activities. As long as it is related to artworks, we will catch them all!"

Wu Tianyuan nodded, this is very important, especially now that the Internet is king.Traditional media is constantly being eroded by new media and will soon be replaced.Whoever occupies this field first will have the absolute right to speak in the future.

"Okay, what else can I say when the three of you join forces?"

Wu Tianyuan encouraged: "At that time, let Zhou Wenyan fully cooperate and collect more materials, including Japan, Europe, the United States, and the time-honored Liulichang. They must be very interested. It is a good thing for a win-win situation."

"There are three of us, and we have big plans!"

Unwilling to be lonely, Wang Jiansen said: "The three of them are supporting on the software, and we are on the real hardware!"

"Tianyuan Art Center?"

Wu Tianyuan looked at the blueprint with some excitement, it was a very grand building, curious.

"It's near the 798 Art Center in Beijing, with an area of ​​15 square meters. The three of us will invest in the construction together and strive to complete it within three months!"

798 Art Zone, also known as Dashanzi Art Zone, was originally the site of the old state-owned 798 factory and other electronic industries.A cultural concept derived from this art district, as well as a fashionable living and working way of LOFT, referred to as 798 lifestyle or 798 way.It has become a new landmark of urban culture in Beijing.

The architectural style of the factory area dominated by Factory 798 is simple and simple, emphasizing functions, the huge cast-in-place structure and bright skylights are rare in other buildings.They are key industrial projects built with the aid of the Soviet Union in the early 50s and designed and built by East Germany. They have experienced countless ups and downs for decades.

After artists and cultural institutions moved in, they rented and remodeled vacant factories on a large scale, and gradually developed into a collection of various spaces such as galleries, art centers, artist studios, design companies, restaurants and bars, forming an international "SOHO-style Art settlement" and "LOFT lifestyle" have attracted considerable attention.

Among the 798 institutions that have entered the 103 Art Zone, they mainly include two categories: creative display and communication, and design, of which 59 belong to artistic creation, display and communication, and design includes space design, advertising design, and home furniture. There are 29 design and clothing and image design companies.

At least 300 artists live directly in the 798 Art Zone or use the 798 Art Zone as their main art creation space, and some of them are from abroad, they are from France, the United States, Belgium, the Netherlands, Australia, South Korea, Singapore etc.

"Ullens' UUC Art Center is there, are you guys going to play in the ring?"

Wang Jiansen said disdainfully: "What big speculators in Europe? We can't control it abroad. On our one-acre three-point land, even if we are crossing the river, we have to lie on our stomachs!"

Everyone laughed, a strong dragon does not overwhelm a local snake, not to mention three giant pythons!Leaving aside anything else, Ullens and the others were blown away by the hardware.

"There are also the two of us, who have already contacted several well-known domestic professional galleries, while secretly acquiring works, while opening up relationships, and preparing for the opportunity to create momentum."

Bai Hua and Lao Guo are also full of confidence. They have worked as art dealers for decades and have a wide network of people.Now that Tianyuan will be the backer, it is even more powerful, and everything can be done smoothly.

Wu Tianyuan picked up the materials and looked at the four well-known galleries that had negotiated cooperation intentions.

ShanghART Gallery held more than 2015 exhibitions in 30, participated in more than 10 international and domestic art fairs, and delivered an almost perfect answer in the past year. With 16 years of persistence, good reputation, going deep into China and exploring the world, ShanghART has become a well-deserved model of Chinese galleries.

Pace Gallery, as the only branch of Pace Gallery in New York, occupies the first-line artist resources in Asia, and has opened a barrier-free channel for Chinese artists to export to the world and international artists to import to China.Under the situation of high operating costs of mainland galleries, insist on high-quality exhibitions, stick to BJ, and become the most successful branch of Western galleries combined with local.

Long March Space has always been a representative of Chinese galleries active in the international art world. Recently, almost none of them have participated in important international expositions and art events.Long March Space continuously blends local and international art resources to become a model of a local gallery with the most international vision.

Tang Contemporary Art has continued to hold high the exhibition strategy in the past year. In Tang Dynasty exhibitions, you can always see large-scale installations that cost a lot of money to transport and arrange. This is in great contrast to the deserted domestic installation art market.This kind of exhibition structure makes Tangren unique among local galleries and wins it high popularity.

"That's right. We all have a basis for cooperation with the top four galleries in China. I also contacted Hong Kong Gagosian and Taiwan Eslite Gallery through Zhai Jianmin and Lin Baili. They are both local brands that have been cultivated for many years and have a strong foundation of contacts."

"There is also Galerie Urs Meile. The Us Meile, a Swiss, opened the Meile Gallery for many years in China. It has been invited to participate in the most important art fairs in the world for a long time. It has contributed a lot to the global promotion of young and middle-aged artists who cooperate with the gallery. I passed Sir William is also on the line, and the other party is also interested in cooperating."

Bai Hua and Lao Guo were excited. Originally, they were going to go to Hong Kong and Taiwan to explore the market next step, but Wu Tianyuan settled it with a few phone calls.Also, the influence of Minqiu Jingshe and Qingwan Yaji is unparalleled in the local area.

"Okay, now we have a three-pronged approach, everyone does what they want, get together every week, appreciate the baby, and make a lot of money at the same time!"

After Boss Liu made the announcement, everyone dispersed to see their favorite treasures in the museum.All of a sudden, there are a lot of national treasures of the Song Dynasty, but I haven't had a chance to see them yet.The museum is closed tonight, just to have a good time.

Wu Tianyuan felt relieved for a while, the seeds finally took root and sprouted, gradually growing, and he began to feel relieved.Everyone has common goals and hobbies, and everyone has their own areas of expertise. It is very comfortable to work together.

He doesn't have to worry about many things, Tianyuan will be a big business at random, and business operations are at his fingertips.With them around, the God-Building Project would be sure, and the biggest opponents would be Chen Dongsheng, Ullens, and Lewis.

Baoli Huyan and Su Fubi Qiu Guofu are also allies, but their identities are sensitive, and the auction house is the last step.Only after the early publicity is in place, do you need market recognition, don't worry, take your time.

Now Wu Tianyuan is very satisfied with his life, and the museum is officially open to the public, and the rest is just a matter of continuous improvement.The parents also came to live in the capital, accompanied by Sun Yuyao.When you are really strong enough to go to the ranch to ride horses, go fishing, drink tea, and make hundreds of millions of dollars by making a few phone calls, that's the time to be a big boss!
