Chapter 1989 Modern Art

To be honest, Athena is much easier to deal with than Hera!

No way, Athena is really inexperienced, and she is not the kind of goddess who is addicted to carnal desires. Not only that, she can even be said to be a little stoic in this regard. Of course, you can't say that this experience was not good. On the contrary, Kai

Feel great.

Athena did not pull Kai to do that all the time. On the contrary, she preferred to hug each other and then talk to each other about topics of interest to both of them.

If the chat is pleasant, Athena may come, but the frequency is not high.

Most of the time, Kai would either lie with Athena in the pavilion, not talking, or lie on the blanket hugging each other, or accompany her to watch various arts, including sculptures, paintings, singing and dancing, especially singing and dancing.

This is Athena's favorite project.

It has the largest open-air theater in Paradise.

Here, there are always the best actors performing various performances, including singing, dancing and drama. Some people even give speeches there.

In short, when she is not enjoying the purity, it is one of the places where Athena stays most often.

Another place is the military exercise room.

It was a very unique place, where you could see the wars taking place among Athena's followers on various planets.

It is also through here that Athena and her staff will deduce the course of the war while responding to the prayers of believers. If they see something pleasing to their eyes, Athena will really send down revelations.

This is also Athena's favorite place.

However, Athena has not been there these days.

In short, after these few days, Kai's life cannot be said to be happy, it can be said to be extremely happy.

Although he doesn’t understand art or opera, to be honest, this lack of understanding means he doesn’t understand modern human art. Art is beauty, and everyone can appreciate it, although not everyone can explain this beauty clearly.

But beauty is something universal, the same all over the world.

Old peasants in the countryside can appreciate it, and so can royal power and wealth.

Xialiba Renren and Yangchun Baixue are actually a false proposition, and that thing was added by someone.

Look at the so-called arts of modern times... they pride themselves on being obscure and proud of being strange and strange.

Maybe some people really express themselves that way, but the problem is, who knows what your self is like? Outsiders can't understand it at all!

The older the art, the more pleasing it is. After all, the artists under Athena's command still have a classical beauty to their art, at least it won't make people confused. Abstract art in modern art has always been considered by many people

flatter.

But in fact, there are very few people who can really appreciate that thing. But once you talk about it, everyone seems to be able to say a few words.

In Kai's opinion, that thing is really not as good as this art with obvious ancient Greek style.

At least Kai looks pleasing to the eye, whether it is sculpture or painting, they are all beautiful.

It looks good, this is the most original expression of art.

Nothing is more important than this.

Over there on Earth... Kai doesn't quite understand those so-called arts.

The coolest piece of art Kai has ever seen is a blank piece of paper!

A piece of white paper is the most imaginative. No one knows how valuable the color of white paper can be in the end. But even if we exhaust our brains, we can’t imagine that a piece of white paper can be sold as a top-notch piece of art.

, and it sold for 90 million. What’s even more annoying is that people can sell 400 million by lazily and feebly drawing a few circles on paper. Seeing that white paper and a few circles can actually sell

In exchange for a series of numbers in return, some people were so angry that they directly changed Deng Ziqi's "Bubble" to read: It's all "hype" and only a moment of "fooling"...

This is not a painting at all. It's not as good as my son's graffiti. How can it sell for 90 million or even 30 to 400 million? So the question is, how much can my son's graffiti sell for? A piece of white paper can sell for 90 million.

A great figure, he is not Leng Jun who is good at painting photos, nor is he Fan Zeng who is good at running assembly lines, but Robert Lehman from the United States. Lehman's best painting method is to paint as little as possible.

He doesn’t draw at all. Anyway, he just saves trouble by drawing. It can also be said to be a lazy painting method. His works are like a blank sheet of paper with nothing in it. Maybe Westerners are not like us Chinese, and we also have to be "Wen Zong" when doing art.

"Poetry must flourish in the Qin and Han Dynasties." They are good at innovation and specialize in futuristic science fiction experiments. Lehman's minimalism is famous in the West. No matter what the doctrine is, we ordinary people don't understand it anyway, it just looks like that.

Look at those viewers standing in front of his masterpiece "Untitled", aren't they just confused? But it was such a blank piece of paper, and it was finally sold for a sky-high price of 90 million. Do you think this kind of money really exists in this world?

Are there many people stupid? I really don’t understand art in the eyes of Westerners. Even if you have 10,000 people who are not convinced, a piece of white paper is really sold for 90 million.

Probably because selling blank paper directly seemed too disrespectful of the audience's IQ, a painter named Setomboli couldn't stand it anymore, so he also painted "Untitled" in order to show respect for the audience's IQ and his own dedication.

, he drew a few more circles on the white paper.

These circles are so amazing that the art world regards him as an outstanding representative of abstract art, so several circles he painted were sold for 450 million, which is jaw-dropping. In fact, abstract art, to put it more simply, is like a painter.

I'm playing hide and seek with you. My real thoughts are that I won't tell you, and I have to let people perform various interpretations and guesses. As for the few circles Setomboli drew, in addition to paying tribute to the audience's IQ, the comments

Experts’ professional interpretation is that “circles draw the pain of life.” Unfortunately, most viewers cannot feel the so-called pain of life except for eye pain when looking left and right.

Forget it.

Others are even more egregious.

For example, some people call the graffiti that an orangutan draws casually with a paintbrush as art.

By the way, there are also pig ones.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is all true.

Does this thing have artistic value?

Hey, don't be angry, this thing has artistic value, and it's sky-high price. Because this thing is not for ordinary people to play at all!

After all, in the art trading market, the lowest asking price for a piece of shit painted by someone unknown is tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

That's it, it's an entry-level product for low-level players.

Art collections often give people an enigmatic impression, and most people are deterred due to a lack of appreciation for the collections. In fact, art is one of the three major investment fields alongside financial bonds and real estate.

In addition, it also plays a very important role, that is, money laundering!

The characteristics of art determine that it is one of the most convenient tools for money laundering. There is no authoritative organization or valuation standard for the value of art, and it can be easily speculated into sky-high prices. In addition, art transactions are not transparent, which determines that art has become a

The money laundering tool of choice for some.

The money laundering techniques behind art auctions usually include the following: First, black money laundering. For example, if A needs to turn hundreds of millions of black gold into legal income, he can buy it on the market at a price of 100,000 yuan per piece.

Enter artist B's works, then wantonly hype them up, raising the value of these paintings to sky-high prices, and put the paintings up for auction. Through money laundering organizations, they arrange for different people to auction them off at different auction houses for a sky-high price of 10 million yuan or more.

The money is paid with A's black gold, so that the black gold is laundered in the name of art investment.

The second is corruption-style money laundering. Assuming that A can control 100 million yuan in public assets, he can set up an art investment institution or art museum. Next, A finds B to join forces and sell B's 10 million yuan worth of art for auction.

If the speculation reaches 100 million yuan, the extra 90 million yuan can be converted from public to private and shared by A and B through consultation.

The third is related money laundering. Some sky-high price transactions do not benefit both the buyer and the seller, but launder money for related parties that have no social relationship with them. A buys a large amount of artist B's paintings one or two years in advance, turns the black gold into art, and then

The money laundering organization arranges for C and D to work together to create a rising market price for B. Then A can sell B's works at auctions or galleries at any time and transfer the proceeds to related parties to achieve the purpose of money laundering.

In order to maximize the profit of money laundering funds, the price of goods used for money laundering is generally increased by about 100 times, and the real price of the goods is part of the money laundering fee. Some money laundering transactions can be divided into real transactions and virtual transactions.

The second part of the transaction, for example, a 430 million transaction, the real transaction part is 30 million, which requires actual payment, and the virtual transaction is 400 million, then the 400 million in the virtual part is used for money laundering. If cultural relics are used for money laundering, the ones on the auction house

The authenticity of cultural relics is not important, and it is better to be fake, because the real price of fake ones is lower, which reduces the handling fees of money laundering. For example, a fake Han Dynasty jade stool was sold for 200 million, and a fake Song Huizong thousand-character inscription was sold for 100 million.

A fake Qi Baishi shrimp was sold for more than 120 million yuan, and a fake Xu Beihong oil painting was sold for 70 million yuan.

There are also people who will find those so-called artists who are not famous and spend money to support them. As for whether those things are real works of art...it doesn't matter, as long as they have a gimmick. For example, the white paper and orangutan painting and pig painting just mentioned.

As long as there is a gimmick and attention, then find art critics and start talking about it!

Otherwise, how do you think those blank papers and graffiti are valuable?

Also, how do you think those art critics live? Their biggest source of income is to raise prices for others!

In short, it doesn’t matter whether it is art or not, and it doesn’t matter what the painting is. They will praise the artist and the artistic value of the so-called works of art.

Then you can start the game.

Do those who buy art really like art? The answer is of course not.

The two biggest purposes they buy this thing for are tax avoidance and money laundering!

After all, there is no way to measure the price of this thing. As long as someone bids, then how much is it worth.

As a result, the so-called modern art has begun to go astray. It is either the author's ultimate personal expression, or it is really made casually, and there is no so-called artistry at all.

The only good thing is... they don't prey on the poor.

Do poor people need to avoid taxes?

Do poor people need to launder money?

So, it’s not surprising that Kai can’t understand those so-called arts. Who can understand that?

Kai told Athena about this matter, and Athena was angry and funny at the same time. Funny was when Kai described it, and it was indeed very funny. Especially the white paper, which almost made Athena laugh to death.

Angry because art is her domain.

She is the patron saint of artists. She will never be happy if art is desecrated in this way.

But she soon forgot about it.

Because Kai brought something new, a smartphone.

Although there is no way to access the Internet, Kai's smartphone itself has a huge memory. When he arrived, Kai asked artificial intelligence to download countless ultra-clear photos of classic art.

These works of art made Athena very happy.

Especially the works of the masters of oil painting and sculpture during the Renaissance, Athena liked them very much.

If Athena had any preference, she preferred sculptures, and among paintings, she preferred natural landscapes.

All in all, both parties were quite satisfied.

The only one who was unhappy was Thor. He obviously asked Kai to do something for him, but what was the result?

As soon as Kai came out, he went into the women's den. Thor hadn't seen Kai for half a month now.

This made Thor very unhappy.

The point is, Thor can't do anything but feel unhappy. After all, this is other people's territory, and he's not afraid of making trouble on other people's territory. But if this is Kai's girlfriend's territory, Thor can't get angry.

Fortunately... there is someone more anxious than Thor.

That was Aphrodite. She originally wanted Athena to fall, but in the end, these two actually made pure love for her!

This isn't right.

Aphrodite does not hate pure love. On the contrary, this goddess appreciates and even intoxicates in pure love. But if this object is Athena, something is wrong.

Seeing that Athena was unlikely to fall into lust, she couldn't wait any longer.

She has a better way, that is to make Kai fall in love with her!

On this point, Aphrodite has absolute confidence!

Aphrodite had an artifact, a golden love belt. Hidden in it was her secret of seducing others. As long as she wore the belt around her waist, she could increase her own charm and arouse the attention and lust of others.

Coupled with her unparalleled charm, no one can ignore her.

Fortunately, Athena is not really idle. She sleeps for a week like Hera did...that would be terrible.

Athena reluctantly bid farewell to Kai and went into her war room, where countless wars were beginning and ending, and she had to pay attention to them.

She has already agreed with Kai that she can go to Earth to see him when she is free. Maybe Kai comes to see her through the Rainbow Bridge.

In short, since we already have a connection, it won't be broken off so easily.

Kai walked out of Athena's realm and was caught by Thor.

"Brother! I'm here to help you! Can you solve the problem before picking up girls? I've been waiting for half a month."

Kai smiled bitterly and said: "Brother... I'm just helping. You know the situation now, right? It's just the two of us who really ran to the Almighty City. We have almost no choice but to fight. I won't appease these goddesses.

We can’t even enter the Almighty City.”
