After hearing this, An Xiaojun said to Zheng Xiaopeng: "Don't look reluctant, we are all acquaintances." After saying that, he reached out and clicked on a painting on the wall of the exhibition room: "In addition, I want the human body painting by Zhou Tong.
, we have already discussed it just now!”.
After hearing this, Zheng Xiaopeng turned his head and glanced at his female colleague.
The little girl at the front desk said Sister Li: "Mr. An and I talked about one hundred and fifty thousand."
An Xiaojun raised his hand to his follower, and the follower handed his bag to his boss. An Xiaojun took out his wallet from the bag, took out a card, and handed it to his follower: "
Xiao Du, you and Ms. Li go and pay!".
After the business was concluded, the two left the exhibition hall to pay the money, and the remaining three people sat at the table and chatted.
"The domestic art market has grown too fast! Paintings by some living painters are now more expensive than calligraphy and paintings by previous masters. Some of them are incomprehensible! Last time I asked for the calligraphy of the president of some association, a small fan
The asking price is 160,000 yuan, which is higher than Wu Dacheng's market price!" An Xiaojun said, turning the small tea cup in his hand.
Chen Shenglin said: "There are more rich people now! It's a good thing that more people are paying attention to the art market! Not to mention paintings, the antique market is also very hot now! Isn't there a saying: don't open for three years?
, it has been three years since it opened! You can make more money doing antiques than us opening a gallery! It’s not like you don’t know that if Mr. Liu didn’t support the store in the early stage, our gallery would have collapsed like other galleries!”
The three of them chatted for a while. An Xiaojun lowered his head and saw two paintings by Fang Yi that were leaning against Chen Shenglin not far away. They were still in cloth bags and had not been opened.
"Why are there two paintings? Are they also by Mr. Liu Hongshuo?" An Xiaojun pointed at Fang Yi's two paintings and asked Chen Shenglin.
Chen Shenglin took one look at it and said with a smile: "That's a painting by Mr. Liu's disciple Fang Yi!".
"Don't let me take a look at the paintings of newcomers. You two are a bit unkind!" An Xiaojun said to Zheng Xiaopeng and the other two.
"It's not that I won't let you see it. Someone has decided on these two pictures. Even if you see them, I can't sell them to you." Zheng Xiaopeng quickly opened his mouth to explain.
An Xiaojun stood up from the chair: "It's nothing, let's just take it out and take a look?"
The old benefactor made this request. How could Zheng Xiaopeng and Chen Shenglin refuse? They stood up from their chairs, opened Fang Yi's two paintings, removed the tea sets from the table and placed them directly on the table.
"Mr. Liu Hongshuo has another new son?" An Xiaojun looked at Zheng Xiaopeng for five minutes and asked: "This person's style is very different from Liu Hongshuo! Mr. Liu Hongshuo's paintings are strong and steady, and his brushwork is powerful and thick.
.The brushstrokes in these two paintings are light and delicate, the characters in the paintings appear quiet and beautiful, and the light and shadow in the paintings also reveal a loud and bright style!".
An Xiaojun’s collection of Liu Hongshuo’s paintings is not just two pieces at a time. Firstly, he likes Liu Hongshuo’s paintings. Secondly, domestic oil painters don’t look at the ones that sell for hundreds of thousands a piece in the domestic market.
Most of the international markets can't even sell for 10,000 US dollars. However, some of Liu Hongshuo's works can sell for 100,000 US dollars, and ordinary works can cost tens of thousands of US dollars. An Xiaojun believes that the old man's paintings still have a lot of room for growth.
Of course, how much the price of the painting can rise depends on how Liu Hongshuo races against the years. To put it more clearly, when will the old man hang it up? Of course, those who care about Liu Hongshuo's paintings will care about Liu Hongshuo's people. Of course, this concern means that Liu Hongshuo has accepted one.
The disciple’s name is Fang Yi, and he likes him very much.
Chen Shenglin listened to An Xiaojun's words. He smiled and explained: "Mr. Liu only has one disciple now! These two paintings were painted by Fang Yi! Mr. Liu only taught techniques and did not encourage his students to imitate him.
Instead, it allowed him to form his own style!".
"How can a teenager or less than 20 years old achieve such a level?" An Xiaojun couldn't help but look at the two paintings again and asked: "Judging from these two paintings, Fang Yi's level is as good as Mr. Liu Hongshuo's.
The gap isn’t that far off!”.
Chen Shenglin said: "These two paintings were painted before. The human body on the easel now, in my opinion, can be compared with Mr. Liu in terms of technique!".
After hearing this, An Xiaojun looked at Chen Shenglin with his eyes open for a few seconds. Seeing that Chen Shenglin didn't look like he was lying, he turned his attention to the two paintings: "That Fang Yi can paint in a year."
How many such realistic paintings are there?”.
"I can't draw many paintings!" Chen Shenglin said: "Based on our estimate, there will only be five or six paintings a year at most! This also includes the situation that he does not change. If he does, it will be difficult to say."
"How much does Fang Yi's painting cost now? The quality is like this" An Xiaojun looked at Chen Shenglin and asked.
Chen Shenglin looked at An Xiaojun with a bitter look on his face: "His paintings are not for sale yet!".
"Then didn't you tell me who decided to buy these two paintings?" An Xiaojun looked at the two of them in confusion and asked. If you don't want to sell these two paintings, then why did you bring these two paintings to the gallery? It's not to raise the price, right? I thought of it.
Here he opened his mouth and said: "Although the painting is good, it is not famous after all. Even Zhou Tong is not famous."
No! If you say it's more than 200,000 yuan, it's a bit outrageous!" Even if Liu Hongshuo is the only disciple who entered the house, it is really outrageous that the painting sold for 200,000 yuan as soon as it was put on the market, let alone Fang Yifeng now.
Without such a great reputation, many people in the industry think that they are still learning painting from teachers!
Zheng Xiaopeng said to his big benefactor: "It's really not for sale. These two paintings were actually ordered by his elders. He didn't charge any money. He just transferred them from us."
After listening for a while, An Xiaojun thought that he had figured it out, isn't it just those things? He smiled and nodded gently and said: "That's okay! In the future, when there are Fang Yi's paintings in the gallery, I will be notified as soon as possible to come and have a look!"
”.
"Of course! If there is, I will bring it to your house for you to see as soon as possible." Chen Shenglin said with a smile after hearing this.
An Xiaojun smiled after hearing this, saw his follower standing at the door, and stood up from the chair: "Then I will go back first!".
After the gold master left, Zheng Xiaopeng and Chen Shenglin immediately stood up and helped carry the two paintings to the car parked on the roadside. Watching Bentley disappear from sight, they turned around and returned to their gallery with a smile.
Fang Yi and the others were drinking and chatting in a small restaurant at this time. Who could have imagined that he had been bought by others for 650,000 yuan. He smiled and thought about when
I can move into my own studio!
After having a meal, I didn't know whether it was considered lunch or dinner. The six of them ate until almost five o'clock in the afternoon, and then they each went about their own business.
After three bottles of beer, Fang Yi arrived at the door of the studio with a little blush on his face. When he saw that General Tie had opened the door, he knew that the teacher was in the studio. When he opened the door, he saw the teacher painting in front of his easel.
.
Liu Hongshuo looked up at Fang Yi and asked: "Where did you run away? I haven't seen you all afternoon!".
"I took Qu Gu and the others to see the studio!" Fang Yi said, closing the door and walking to his easel: "These people are starting to grab the room now!".
Liu Hongshuo heard Fang Yi's words and asked with a smile: "What? They will go there often in the future?".
"I'm afraid that's the case! As long as we don't tie them up, they will definitely go!" Fang Yi said with a smile.
"Well! It would be good to make more friends!" Liu Hongshuo said with a smile after hearing this. The old man knew that his student's personality was a bit cold and he was not very interested in things that had nothing to do with him. Now this personality is becoming more and more obvious.
It's out. The old man is afraid that Fang Yi's sex will go away for a long time.
The artist's personality will become withdrawn. Now listening to Fang Yi's words, I feel a little relieved. Although it is a character of an artist to be withdrawn, but as an artist with an inherently withdrawn personality, Liu Hongshuo hopes that his students will not be like him.
Same, with a more cheerful personality!
Thinking of this, Liu Hongshuo asked Fang Yi: "Wouldn't it bother you if they often visit your studio in the future?".
Fang Yi thought for a while and said: "Although they usually talk a lot, they are very quiet when painting. And there are some things I can learn from them. We can learn from each other's strengths. When I have free time, I sit in the studio
It’s also fun to chat with three or five friends over a glass of wine in your courtyard or terrace, isn’t it?”
"That's good if you think so!" Liu Hongshuo smiled and nodded.
"By the way! Teacher, in the morning, two people from the gallery came to take three of your paintings, plus two of mine!" Fang Yi remembered what happened in the morning and said to the teacher.
Liu Hongshuo put down his paintbrush: "Don't tell me I've forgotten a little bit, so I don't know which three paintings the two of them took!" After saying that, he wiped his hands on the cloth apron he was wearing, and then moved toward the place where the paintings were placed.
Go to the small room.
Fang Yi put on his protective sleeves and sat in front of his easel to continue painting his family portrait.
Five minutes later, I heard the teacher's voice coming from the small room: "Fang Yi! Did you take away the scenery in the studio that you painted?".
Fang Yi didn't even raise his head and said loudly: "No! I didn't even touch anything in the small room! Didn't you take it yesterday?"
"I was leaning against the wall! Why is it gone! And I only have two missing paintings!" Liu Hongshuo walked out of the small room and looked at Fang Yi and asked: "It was taken away by Xiao Zheng and Xiao Chen.
?When you picked up the paintings, you didn’t look at which three they were?”.
"Didn't you say that except for the five paintings on the easel inside, they can choose the rest? I didn't ask!" Fang Yi put down the brush in his hand and looked at the teacher and said, "How about I call them and ask them?
Just take it away and ask them to bring it back next time!"
Liu Hongshuo walked towards the phone: "I'll call myself, and you can paint your picture!" After saying that, he picked up the phone and started dialing. After chatting for a while, he found out about Fang Yi's imitation painting.
Not only was it taken away by the two of them, but this little time was actually sold.
Turning his head and covering the phone with one hand, he said to Fang Yi: "The painting is with them and has been sold for 650,000 yuan!" After saying that, he put down his hand and continued to chat with Zheng Xiaopeng on the other end.
When Fang Yi heard that it was 650,000 yuan, he calculated in his mind that one painting was worth two houses! When he thought about it, he felt that this business was really promising!
