Facts have proved that both William and Bill Gates were very satisfied with the gift given by Zhuang Rui. Even after walking out of "Xuan Rui Zhai", they couldn't put it down and played with the seals carved from chicken blood stone in their hands.
Of course, the one who was more satisfied was the monkey. As soon as Zhuang Rui and his party stepped out of the store, he rushed out immediately. He was going to find a photocopying agency to develop the photos.
Taking photos with Bill Gates and Prince William became Monkey's bragging rights in the future. Whenever a customer came into the store, he would make a big deal about it, which made Nobita so jealous that he almost took the photo to photoshop.
Not to mention, the influence of this person is really good. Hou’s value has skyrocketed since then. More than ten years later, Hou has become a famous seal carver in Beijing. Of course, these are things for the future and will not be discussed here for the time being.
surface.
…
After wandering around Beijing for a day, Zhuang Rui rarely wore a suit and tie early the next morning, and took Bill and William to the Dingguang Museum. The first exhibition of "Jade Seal of the Nation" will be held at 10 this morning.
Start at o'clock.
When Zhuang Rui arrived at the museum at nine o'clock, the entire perimeter of the museum was surrounded by crowds. Various tourist groups lined up in an orderly manner, waiting for the "Jade Seal of the Nation" to appear for the first time in a thousand years.
After much effort, Zhuang Rui drove the car into the parking lot of the museum. Fortunately, the curtains were closed inside the car. Otherwise, if the reporters saw him, he would not have entered the car today.
After getting out of the car, William remembered the sea of people he saw outside through the curtains, and couldn't help but said: "Zhuang, the Chinese are all artists..."
"How do you say this?"
Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Some Chinese praised Chinese people for their diligence and intelligence, but Zhuang Rui had never heard of William's comment.
William glanced at Zhuang Rui strangely and said: "Aren't these people outside all here to appreciate China's greatest works of art? Appreciating works of art can cultivate people's sentiments just like listening to symphonies...
"
In William's opinion, only people with artistic qualities can interpret the value of these works of art. And so many people with various banners are waiting outside, doesn't it mean that China is a country with a strong artistic atmosphere?
"Uh...William, what you said is very good. I agree with your point of view..."
After hearing William's explanation, Zhuang Rui's mouth twisted unnaturally, and he almost couldn't help but run to the toilet and laugh wildly.
Zhuang Rui is relatively familiar with the Chinese people. Their biggest characteristic is that they like to watch the excitement. Whether it is a fight between urban management and vendors on the street, or someone has a nosebleed in the middle of the road and raises his head to stop the bleeding, he can attract a group of people to watch (explain the facts,
If you don’t like it, don’t spray it).
Of course, it is not ruled out that Chinese people are patriotic and come to see the "Jade Seal" that represents the majesty of ancient Chinese emperors and learn about the ancient imperial culture.
But to describe this behavior as appreciation is sheer nonsense. If everyone has this level of artistic appreciation, those domestic counterfeit cultural relic dealers will have no chance of survival early on.
After arranging for Bill and William to rest in the office, Zhuang Rui also got busy. After all, he is also the actual legal person and owner of Dingguang Museum. It would be a bit too much to be a hands-off shopkeeper on a day like this.
Today, in addition to tourists, almost all antique enthusiasts and related practitioners in Beijing also came to Dingguang Museum. Among them are some of Zhuang Rui's old friends and elders, such as the old man Jin Fatty and others. He must come forward.
entertain.
"Old man, haven't you seen it a few days ago? There are so many people on this hot day, which is not good for your health..."
Zhuang Rui welcomed Mr. Gu in. I don't know whether it was because he was completely retired. Mr. Gu has been in very bad health for more than a year. Zhuang Rui treated him many times, but nothing improved.
"I'm coming, I'm coming. After playing with jade all my life, how can I not take a closer look at the He's Bi? Okay, you are busy today, go out to receive guests..."
Gu Gu was in good spirits today. After entering the lounge, he greeted a group of old friends. However, the last sentence almost made Zhuang Rui stagger. Is there anyone who talks like this...receiving guests? This is a museum.
It’s not the eight major alleys in Sijiu City.
However, this adjective is indeed correct. Not two minutes after Zhuang Rui left, he led a group of people back. The person walking at the front was Ouyang Zhenwu.
"Brother-in-law, you are here today. The shop is full of glory. By the way, can this imperial seal be kept in the shop for a few more months?"
Zhuang Rui lowered his voice and joked with Ouyang Zhenwu. In fact, according to Zhuang Rui's idea, this object should be placed in the Dingguang Museum. If it is placed in the Palace Museum, it may be stolen again one day.
"You brat, the excavation of Genghis Khan's Mausoleum is the work of the entire archaeological team. Now you have taken advantage of it. Why should you act like a good boy after you get the advantage? It's impossible for a few more months, but it's okay for two months less..."
Ouyang Zhenwu glared at Zhuang Rui angrily and handed the imperial seal to a private museum for its first exhibition. He was still under a lot of pressure. If he hadn't been the direct leader of many national museums such as the Forbidden City,
I'm afraid those people can file a complaint to the central government.
"Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything..."
Zhuang Rui quickly put on a pitiful look, but secretly cursed in his heart, "This thing belongs to me. If it weren't for my high style, I would have become a tomb robber..."
In fact, Zhuang Rui is right. As long as he is not greedy, it is not impossible to enter Genghis Khan's mausoleum through the underground river and only take such an object. Of course, his entry will also cause great harm to the mausoleum.
.
Ouyang Zhenwu, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and said, "By the way, Zhuang Rui, you have two guests here, right? Go back and find a quieter place and introduce them to Minister Jia and Minister Wu.
I will come over after your first exhibition ceremony is over..."
The Ministers Jia and Wu mentioned by Ouyang Zhenwu are the two deputy ministers of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Commerce respectively. As for the guests Ouyang Zhenwu mentioned, of course they are Bill and Prince William.
Although these two people came to China in a private capacity, the official still needed to come forward to meet with them. Since it was informal, they arranged it at Zhuang Rui's museum.
"Hehe, no problem, but...is there any reward? Well, pretend I didn't say anything..."
Zhuang Rui, who originally wanted to take advantage, obediently shut his mouth under Ouyang Zhenwu's gaze.
The time soon reached ten o'clock. After Ouyang Zhenwu gave an official speech, he, together with some old experts in the industry and two mysterious guests, held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the first exhibition of the Imperial Seal.
As expected, the appearance of Prince William and Bill Gates pushed the entire ceremony to a climax, and for a while, all kinds of flashlights focused on the two of them.
In particular, some European and American reporters expressed surprise at the appearance of the two men. These foreign reporters who originally worked on the political and financial lines also became interested in the Dingguang Museum. Many of the articles they sent to the country included
The words Dingguang Museum appeared for the first time.
Those tourists and some experts who originally felt that the Dingguang Museum was too small could not help but reposition it in their hearts. They found that although the Dingguang Museum was small in scale and its heritage was not as good as some large state-owned museums, the quantity and quality of its exquisite treasures
, even compared to those state-owned museums, it is not far behind.
Moreover, the appearance of Bill Gates and Prince William also shows that Dingguang Museum has deep personal connections around the world. Coupled with the background of the legendary young boss, the development prospects of Dingguang Museum will be unlimited.
Limited.
At the first exhibition ceremony, Huangfu Yun announced that the Dingguang Museum will launch a series of exchanges and cooperation with the British Museum and is committed to building the Dingguang Museum into a world-class comprehensive museum.
This is also the first time that Dingguang Museum has made such a sound to the outside world. It can be said that starting from today, Dingguang Museum will enter the sight of the world's museum industry and has taken a solid step.
As Zhuang Rui expected, the first exhibition of the Imperial Seal was extremely popular. The Chinese and foreign media reported the day's events the next day, completely overshadowing his personal limelight in the previous period.
In the domestic museum rankings of relevant institutions, Dingguang Museum, which was originally ranked in the twentieth place, jumped into the top ten and truly became a giant in the Chinese museum industry.
The museum's reputation has brought direct benefits. After the renovation, tickets to the Jade Museum cost 80 yuan each, and demand exceeds supply. Every day, the ticket office is filled with long queues of people.
Group tickets purchased by major travel agencies alone account for 190% of the number of tickets issued every day. This has caused complaints from old Beijingers. This museum in Beijing can't even buy tickets if you don't participate in travel agencies.
Can’t visit?
However, these have nothing to do with Zhuang Rui. As a leader, he must appropriately delegate power to his employees. Of course, this is purely an excuse made by Zhuang Rui because he is irresponsible.
The excavation work of Genghis Khan's Mausoleum in Inner Mongolia has entered the middle stage, but Zhuang Rui, who originally planned to go back as soon as possible, encountered trouble again, because both Ma Fatty and Song Jun who were far away in Africa returned to China.
As one of the shareholders of the African Mining Company, Zhuang Rui naturally wanted to give the chairman and vice chairman a good reception when they returned to China. Not only did he pick them up at the airport in person, he also directly dragged them to his manor.
In fact, Zhuang Rui was so attentive mainly because he had a guilty conscience. He held a lot of shares in this company, but regardless of whether Fatty Ma was urging him by phone or telegram, Zhuang Rui had never made a trip there in the past few years.
