Three hundred and fiftieth chapters unexpected move
"Black diamonds? Sad jewelry?" Ling Xiaoxiao looked at these raw black diamonds and was surprised to hear Luo Tian's creativity: "Aren't you an antique expert? Where did you hear these? Sad jewelry is really
Not bad, I think once it is launched, it will cause a trend in the country."
"Oh, you agree?" Unexpectedly, his spark would be valued by the talented designer Ling Xiaoxiao. Luo Tian felt the need to re-evaluate himself. Maybe he was a genius?
"Retro style has been popular in recent years, represented by the sad jewelry style of the Victorian era. Black diamonds have become the new favorite of fashion. Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom has been wearing only black jewelry to express her eternal grief because she was widowed. At that time, black gemstones
It has become the main role on the jewelry stage. Nowadays, when many new materials are added to this kind of jewelry, the sad style has been changed, and it can appear very noble and noble." When Ling Xiaoxiao talked about her industry,
Just kept talking.
"Okay, the raw materials are here. It's up to you to handle this task." Luo Tian took a deep breath. When he came back this time, he saw that Ling Xiaoxiao's designs had all turned into real objects. Sure enough... Awesome!
The raw materials are done, the design is done, and the store is done, what else is needed? Management talents and marketing! Luo Tian stood up: "You continue, I still have my own things to do."
Ling Xiaoxiao pouted in dissatisfaction: "Is there any boss like you? Just abandon the stall and ignore it?"
"This is called full authorization, full trust in you." Luo Tian said and walked away, leaving with him the Four-Armed Bodhisattva and the painting by Xu Beihong.
Luo Tian spread the painting on Zhou Bozhai's desk. Zhou Bozhai put on his reading glasses and picked up a magnifying glass to study hard. He refused to let go of every detail. Finally, he put down the magnifying glass: "Yes, Xu Beihong is good at painting horses.
Horses are metaphors for people, holding objects to express feelings
, to express his patriotic enthusiasm. The horses in Xu Beihong's works are "eternal horses are empty", with a unique attitude of high energy and heroic spirit. This picture of horses is similar to Xu Beihong's painting before the Anti-Japanese War.
The style is different..."
"Yes, Xu Beihong's early horses have a kind of indifferent poetry of a literati, showing the state of "wandering back and looking back, lonely and lonely". After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Xu Beihong realized that artists should not be limited to artistic self-indulgence.
, but should breathe the same fate as the country and devote artistic creation to the fiery
In his life, his horse became a symbol of the awakening national spirit. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, his horse became a symbol of "the mountains and rivers have returned to democracy after hundreds of battles, and the rugged road has been leveled." It is still a galloping horse.
It just looks less anxious and sad, and more cheerful and exciting." Luo Tian took it and said.
"Compared with the picture of galloping horses, this picture of horses is more cheerful and exciting." Zhou Bozhai sighed: "In the old days, literati and painters all put their emotions for the country and society into their works. For example, the famous
In "Running Horse", Xu Beihong used rich and unrestrained ink to outline major turning parts such as the head, neck, chest, legs, etc., and used dry
The pen sweeps out the mane tail, making the changes between dry and wet shades natural. The straight lines of the horse's legs are thin and powerful, like steel knives, penetrating the back of the paper, while the arcs of the abdomen, buttocks and mane tail are very elastic and dynamic. Overall,
, the front of the picture is large and the back is small, and the sense of perspective is strong. The legs and the horse’s head stretched forward have a strong impact and seem to break through the picture.”
Luo Tian nodded: "When Mr. Xu painted this painting, the Anti-Japanese War was in a stalemate between the enemy and ourselves. The Japanese army wanted to completely defeat China before launching the Pacific War and make the Kuomintang government surrender. Therefore, they tried their best to repeatedly
The Changsha Battle was launched for the first time in an attempt to open up Chongqing, the choke point of north-south transportation. In the second battle, our side was defeated for a time, and Changsha was occupied by the Japanese invaders. Xu Beihong, who was holding an art exhibition in Penang, Malaysia to raise funds, was extremely anxious when he heard that the national crisis was looming."
The more they talked, the more excited they became. Zhou Bozhai caressed the painting lovingly: "I never expected that Mr. Xu's paintings would be found in India. By the way, where did this painting come from?"
Luo Tian told about his experience in the black market, and Zhou Bozhai shook his head repeatedly: "You are the only one who can do such a trick. Fortunately, you are smart and let Brother Hong benefit. However, what do you plan to do with this painting and send it to the auction?
?”
"No, I have other ideas..." Luo Tian said: "Maybe my doing this will cause a lot of discussion, but I think this is a good way to kill two birds with one stone."
"Kill two birds with one stone?" Zhou Bozhai still didn't quite understand what Luo Tian meant: "Will it also arouse a discussion?"
"I want to donate this painting to the National Museum." Luo Tian expressed his meaning briefly.
"Bah!" Zhou Bozhai shouted: "What a great idea!"
Luo Tian did not expect his godfather's reaction to be so violent: "Godfather, why are you?"
"I actually guessed your intention," Zhou Bozhai patted his forehead: "It seems that my brain is quite good. Let me tell you, your idea is to donate this original painting of Mr. Xu to the museum.
This will definitely be a good story, the news media will definitely follow the trend and report it, and you will become a popular figure in the industry. Taking advantage of this trend to open your jewelry store will definitely make it more sensational, right?"
"That's right." Luo Tian clapped his hands and laughed: "If this painting is auctioned, the value will definitely not be less than 30 million. But compared to my long-term development, 30 million, I prefer to focus on the future. 30 million
It's just floating clouds." Luo Tian carefully put the painting away: "Godfather, what do you think?"
"It's a pretty good idea, and it's quite bold, but what if the media's response is not enthusiastic enough?" Zhou Bozhai was worried: "After all, the media doesn't listen to us."
"First of all, the scandal with me, Ouyang Qing, was all over the place a while ago. To put it bluntly, I have already become newsworthy. Secondly, Teacher Xu's paintings are hard to find, and the market has always been paying attention to them. This is also the biggest concern.
Point, the third and most important thing is that the direction of the media can be..." Luo Tian made a fanning gesture: "It is people-oriented. If you have to find connections, I think it can be done. After all, today's communication
The Internet is amazing.”
Luo Tian's eloquent remarks made Zhou Bozhai frown slightly: "Luo Tian, I agree with many of your ideas and even admire them, but I hope you will not forget your true intentions in the process of business operations."
The old man worked hard, but Luo Tian didn't know: "Don't worry, godfather, I do things with a conscience and will never do any dirty things. Isn't that what a man does?"
Only then did Zhou Bozhai nod his head happily: "Only you can do great things like this."
