"Teacher Wang, this is Professor Guang you just mentioned! Please come with me!"
Without Wang Lianjun's introduction, the proprietress guessed Guang Tongfu's identity, hurriedly came out of the counter, and invited the two of them to the small room next to them to view paintings.
The young man who had questioned Luo Yanning before quickly stood up and said: "Boss lady, can you take me to see it together? I also like that painting very much."
"This..." The landlady looked at Professor Guang and Wang Lianjun, looking a little embarrassed.
The young man had been chatting with her for a while, and it was during this chat that he discovered that they were fellow villagers, and they even added each other on WeChat.
The fellow wanted to go with him to see the paintings, but she was too embarrassed to refuse directly. However, she was worried that Professor Guang would be unhappy if she took the young man to see the paintings.
Guang Tongfu said with an indifferent expression: "The painting is the boss's wife's painting, you have the final say."
"Then let's go together." Seeing that Guang Tongfu had no objection, the landlady nodded and agreed to the fellow's request.
"Guys, wait a moment. I'll go and close the door."
It was already past half past 8 o'clock in the morning, the customers in the store had already left, and it was already past breakfast time, so there wouldn't be anyone behind.
After the proprietress closed the door of the store, she hung up a small wooden sign that said "Closed", and then she led a group of three people into a small room in the back kitchen.
The boss, who had been busy in the kitchen all morning, also took off his apron and joined the "appreciation team" together.
"Good painting! Good kung fu! Good brushwork!"
After seeing the painting, Guang Tongfu couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he said three words "good" three times in a row. He praised it first and then looked at it.
After complimenting him, Guang Tongfu took out a palm-sized magnifying glass from his pocket and came forward to study it carefully.
While looking at it, he praised, "This color is so true. I can use ordinary pigments to create such a good ink color. I am ashamed of myself in this aspect of ink mixing."
After seeing the use of colors in the painting, Guang Tongfu couldn't help but admire it.
"The proprietress of this store must be so lucky..."
After Wang Lianjun heard Professor Guang Tongfu's evaluation, he looked at the landlady with great envy. A painting that could be praised by Professor Guang Tongfu was definitely not ordinary.
"The processing of lines is also masterful! The last time I saw this kind of surreal painting with my own eyes was when I went to WH Art Academy for exchange and study last year and saw the paintings of Dean Leng Jun."
"Awesome, so awesome..."
"I guess some people believe it is Leng Jun's work."
Guang Tongfu held a magnifying glass and admired it while looking at it. The more he looked at it, the more surprised he became. The more he looked at it, the more he could feel the author's superb skills.
"Teacher, are you saying... that the artist of this painting is comparable to Dean Leng Jun?"
Wang Lianjun was extremely surprised when he heard Guang Tongfu's praise.
As a university art teacher who teaches painting full-time, Wang Lianjun naturally knows Leng Jun's name, just like all music singers know Jay Chou.
In the domestic oil painting world, Leng Jun is also considered a special case.
He did not come from a prestigious family in the "Eight Academy of Fine Arts". He graduated from the Sports Art Department of the Hankou Branch of WH Normal University in 1984. After ten years of hard work, he became famous for his meticulous and hyper-realistic painting style in the 1990s.
Being able to become a unique leader among young and middle-aged oil painters in China, in addition to the guidance of teachers, Leng Jun relies more on diligent self-study and persistence in creating realistic oil paintings.
His works have won numerous awards including the Gold Medal at the 9th National Art Exhibition, the Excellence Award at the 10th National Art Exhibition, etc.
Standing in front of Leng Jun's works, even a person who knows nothing about oil painting can feel a thrilling power.
Through layers of paint, he brings silence, coldness and depth to people.
"Yes, Xiao Wang..."
Guang Tongfu looked at it carefully with a magnifying glass and said: "If you hadn't told me in advance on the phone that it was painted by a young man, I would have believed it even if you said it was painted by Dean Leng Jun himself."
"This..." Wang Lianjun was so surprised when he heard Guang Tongfu comparing Luo Jinning's works with Leng Jun's works that he didn't know what to say.
The young man who questioned Luo Yanning's painting skills before was also extremely surprised and said: "Professor Guang, are you talking about Dean Leng Jun who sold a painting for a high price of 60 million?"
Guang Tongfu nodded and said: "Yes, among contemporary young painters, only his paintings can be sold at such a price."
"What the hell? A painting sold for... 60 million?"
The boss and his wife immediately lost their composure after hearing what the young man said.
Not to mention 60 million, even if a zero is removed, both of them would wake up laughing in their dreams if it sold for 6 million.
Even if the sale is less than 6 million, selling for 600,000 or even 60,000 is still a profitable business.
Guang Tongfu finally said: "The value of money is just an add-on, and the artistic value is the greatest value of this work."
The boss and his wife didn't think so.
Although this painting was originally painted for their daughter, if someone really paid for the painting and the price was high, they would not mind reselling it.
As ordinary people, they are more willing to pursue material life and work hard to make money to make their lives better.
As for the pursuit of art, it is far from ordinary people, and it is not something ordinary people can afford and play well.
For them, the monetary value of a painting far exceeds its artistic value.
It only took Luo Yanning about 10 minutes to paint this painting, but Guang Tongfu looked at it with a magnifying glass for more than an hour, during which he was full of praise.
"Boss, are you selling this painting?" Guang Tongfu liked it more and more and planned to buy it back and study it carefully.
The lady boss didn't expect that there would be customers wanting to buy paintings so soon, and she suddenly looked happy.
Guang Tongfu just looked at the painting for more than an hour, and he almost said "like" written on his face. If he likes it so much, he must be willing to bid.
The boss's Adam's apple moved, he swallowed, and asked Guang Tongfu: "If I sell it, professor, how much can you give me?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Although your painting is of high quality, its author is not famous..."
Guang Tongfu kept talking for more than three minutes, giving the boss and his wife some basic knowledge about the oil painting market.
Finally, he said: "I can give you 200,000 yuan. Of course, if you feel you are losing money, you can take the painting to the market and ask around to see if there is anyone who bids higher than me."
"20...200,000?" The boss and his wife were excited after hearing Guang Tongfu's quotation.
200,000 is a lot of money for them.
An ordinary worker in Shi City with a salary of about 4,000 would have to save such a large amount of money for almost six or seven years.
Of course, this is only theoretical.
The actual situation is that after six or seven years, many migrant workers have become older, but they still don’t have much savings.
When Luo Yanning painted this painting, it only lasted about 10 minutes. It didn't look like a careless masterpiece.
Moreover, this painting was easy to come by. A meal of mutton soup was enough to create such a painting.
Therefore, the boss and his wife were very excited about the price offered by Guang Tongfu!
The two went outside to discuss for about ten minutes, and finally agreed to sell the "unknown painting" by Luo Yanning for 200,000.
A meal of mutton soup was exchanged for 200,000 yuan. This transaction was definitely a profitable one.
As for whether this painting will appreciate in value in the future...
It's possible, but unlikely.
Moreover, as Guang Tongfu said, the preservation of oil paintings is also a very troublesome matter.
If you don't save it well, let alone 200,000 yuan, it won't even be worth 20 yuan by then.
To hedge against the possibility of appreciation and depreciation, the 200,000 in cash is the most cost-effective.
