"Mr. Zhang has property in Zurich?" George Fairburne asked in surprise.

"Small industry, there is no way to compare with Mr. Stuart." Zhang Junping smiled very modestly.

It's not exactly modest, Jiamei Textile is really not a big industry in Zhang Junping.

It is an industry that is invested in simply to complete the task and change the status quo of the domestic textile industry.

Seeing that Zhang Junping didn't want to say more, George Fairburn didn't continue to ask, but just smiled lightly: "Then I'll be waiting for Mr. Zhang tomorrow afternoon."

"See you tomorrow afternoon!" Zhang Junping smiled and stretched out his hand to shake George Fairburn again.

After sending George Fairburn away, Zhang Junping went back to the sofa, closed his eyes and thought about the gains and losses of the negotiation just now.

It has to be said that everything went smoothly as he expected.

All of this is based on the fact that George Fairburn is a real businessman.

Zhang Junping was also betting, but he was right.

Zhang Junping had also considered before that if he made a wrong bet, the consequences would be very bad.

The whole book is finished.

Of course it wasn't the end of the book after Zhang Junping was killed.

It's not that they look down on them, a group of businessmen who have been corrupted by romance and gentleness, and have no blood, they really can't keep Zhang Junping.

The most is to detain Chen Lijun and the others.

In that case, Zhang Junping will definitely make a big fuss and have a hearty zero-dollar purchase in France.

The result of this is naturally the end of the book.

However, Zhang Junping is confident that the chance of winning the bet is [-]%.

France at this time is no longer the era of Napoleon.

Long time, power, money, and beauty have corrupted Napoleon's descendants.

This can be seen from the performance of France in World War I and World War II.

It is not difficult to understand what choices a group of bloody businessmen will make.

In fact, Zhang Junping has another insurance, that is, they are staying at the Hilton Hotel, an old five-star hotel chain.

It will also make George Fairborn scruples.

In the end, Zhang Junping still won the bet.

Hit one punch to avoid a hundred punches.

It's worth the bet this time.

I dare not say that it has completely opened up the international market, but at least it can gain a foothold.

After reflecting for a while, Zhang Junping got up and made a phone call, then took a shower and went to bed.

The next day, after breakfast, the meeting continued.

In addition to reading the discipline as usual, there is also a summary of the experience of the visit yesterday and the night before.

"We've been in Paris for two days, right? Let's talk about your feelings and experiences!" Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Manager, if you want to talk about your feelings, you really feel deeply! I didn't know it before, but I didn't know it until I came to Paris. The gap between us and others is so big.

I have visited luxury stores and galleries in the past few days, and I feel that our service is far behind.

How many years has the country been mentioned, to serve the people, to make customers feel at home.

However, what we have done is far from good, and it is not as good as what the capitalists in capitalist countries have done.

Thinking about what I did before, I couldn't help but blush. "Chen Lijun was the first to express her feelings.

Then, the others also talked about their feelings one by one.

Zhang Junping listened quietly, carefully recording everyone's feelings and experiences.

I have just been here for two days, and I actually watched it for one day and one evening. What everyone feels most is the gap between the two sides.

This gap is the most shocking.

After everyone finished speaking, Zhang Junping said with a smile: "That's right, everyone has a deep feeling after comparing themselves.

This is a good start, and everyone feels the gap between us and developed countries.

Then in the next few days, we will start to find a solution to the problem.

While visiting, think about how we can change our backward situation.

Of course, we are not the zz family, nor are we government officials, so we don't need to consider those general directions.

Just think about how to run our art company well and how to sell our art to Europe, America and other countries. "Zhang Junping's concluding speech is also a re-arrangement of tasks for everyone.

"Understood, manager!" Everyone replied in unison.

In the morning, Zhang Junping took everyone to continue shopping. It looked like a game, but with the task given by Zhang Junping, the purpose of the game became much clearer.

In fact, everything they are doing now is just an appetizer, which belongs to letting them see and broaden their horizons.

Vision, it sounds like nothing.

I don't understand, if you tell me, I will understand.

But the reality is not like this. People always use their own cognition to judge the truth of things, adhering to the belief that seeing is believing and hearing is believing.

When others told him the truth, he didn’t think about it, he didn’t understand it, and he simply said, I didn’t see it, what I saw was not like this, and he directly judged it to be false.

Therefore, Zhang Junping's strategy is to let you look at it first, and break your original values ​​and worldview first.

Then come hear me again.

After shopping all morning, after lunch, Zhang Junping took everyone back to the hotel.

"Manager, do you have any other plans for the afternoon?" Song Heping asked because she was familiar with Zhang Junping and she was a woman.

She hasn't had enough shopping yet!
Shopping in the past two days has been quite enjoyable. Although I don't buy anything, it is also enjoyable just to look at it.

"I have other arrangements in the afternoon. I want to meet an old friend and talk to him about cooperation.

It is not that simple to open a store on the Champs-Elysees Avenue, which requires the approval of the Champs-Elysees Management Committee.

The person I'm going to meet is a member of the management committee.

You can rest in the hotel, or let Mr. Lou take you to continue shopping. "Zhang Junping explained patiently.

When going abroad for inspection, innocent people are not allowed to leave the team, and Zhang Junping must also abide by this point.

The last time he went abroad, he had already communicated with him before going abroad, and he had his father-in-law as his guarantor, so he could leave the team easily.

Now, there is no guarantee, and Zhang Junping has left the team, so he must explain the situation to everyone.

Although he didn't say anything, no one would pursue this, but in order to convince the public, Zhang Junping patiently explained the reason for leaving the team.

"Manager, you still have friends in France!" Everyone was surprised with admiration.

"Hehe! When I came to France last time, I sold a few oil paintings and exchanged some foreign exchange.

By the way, if you have something you want to buy, if you are short of foreign exchange, let me know, and I can lend it to you. "Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Then I can thank the manager first! I saw several beautiful dresses, and my girl must be beautiful in them." Song Heping said with a smile.

"Then I won't be polite with the manager anymore, I just bought clothes for my family to go out to drink tea." Chen Lijun also said.

Clothes for drinking tea, this is a word passed down from the nobles of the Qing Dynasty.

In the past, the nobles of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties were not engaged in production, and had nothing to do all day long. They were either fighting cocks, walking birds, or going to a teahouse for a meal, chatting with gods from all over the world.

In fact, by the end of the Qing Dynasty, many nobles in the Manchu and Qing Dynasties were so downcast that they sold their property, and some even had no property to sell, and even food became a problem.

Therefore, the teahouse became a place for them to settle their food and clothing, wear bright clothes, have a meal in the teahouse, brag and fart with others, and when they meet nobles, they will flatter them, and when the nobles are happy, they throw a few silver coins at random, It can solve their food and clothing for a day.

So, clothes for drinking tea is a sarcastic remark, as well as a self-deprecating remark.

Zhang Junping also simply took out the check book and wrote a check for [-] US dollars to Song Heping, "Sister Song, you take this money. Later, everyone has something to buy, so I will ask you for the money directly. You will pay the bill." Remember it.

When you return to China, just give the equivalent RMB. "

Given the equivalent RMB, Zhang Junping is actually at a disadvantage.

However, these people are all his subordinates, and occasionally suffer a little bit, and giving them some benefits is also a way to win people's hearts.

After separating from everyone, Zhang Junping returned to his room, made a cup of tea, sipped it slowly, and flipped through the newspapers of the day.

The hype of art is a very long-term thing, and it may take months or even years to slowly push up the price.

At this time, the hype of imitation has not yet ended, and the price is still being pushed up.

Although, in the world's major auctions, flat imitations have been sold for a high price of 60 million US dollars, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that this price is not accurate.

No real collector will buy an imitation at this price.

The works of modern oil painting artists such as Picasso and Rubens sell for tens of millions of dollars, which is already a recognized price. All collectors are willing to pay for this price, and they firmly believe that the price of their works will be even higher in the future.

And the prices of mediocre imitations are fictitious, even if it is only one-tenth of the auction price, collectors should also consider it.

Therefore, the mediocre hype has not stopped, and has been continuously hyped.

Zhang Junping flipped through various newspapers, collected the news he needed, and also learned the hype methods of European and American art dealers.

These will be useful to him in the future.

After Zhang Junping finished reading all the newspapers of the day, around two o'clock in the afternoon, the doorbell rang.

Zhang Junping opened the door, and it was the lawyer Zhang Junping was waiting for who came, a barrister from a multinational law firm in Zurich, a blond and blue-eyed beauty Christina Petz.

Christina Pez is more than 30 years old this year. She looks average, but she has a hot body. She is a woman like a strong woman, an unmarriageist, and she does things quite neatly.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang! I'm glad you can think of me when you need it!" Christina said polite words, but in fact there was no smile on her face, and only the lines of her face were slightly softer.

"Oh! dear Christina, it is such a pleasure to meet you.

It is your professionalism that impresses me, and your thoughtful service, which makes me never forget you. Zhang Junping smiled and let Christina and her assistant, a beautiful white woman with black hair and black eyes, into the room.

Christina's assistant is more beautiful than her, and she speaks very softly, with a hint of coquettishness, but her figure is several grades worse than Christina's.

Of course, Zhang Junping's Western living habits are somewhat unacceptable, so he doesn't have any thoughts, he just looks good.

"Thank you! This is the best compliment for me!" Christina showed a slight smile on her face.

"Miss Christina, and this Miss Grace, coffee or tea?" Zhang Junping asked with a smile.

“Just have a cup of coffee!”

Zhang Junping made a cup of coffee for the two of them, and then sat across from Christina.

"Miss Christina, I don't know if you have heard of flat imitation?"

"Imitation? Are you talking about the artist whose imprint is imitation that has become very popular recently?"

"Yes! I am the author of the imitation!" Zhang Junping nodded with a smile, and then said straight to the point.

"Mr. Zhang is the author of the imitation?" Christina looked at Zhang Junping in surprise, but there was a wave of ups and downs in her heart.

If so, then this is a big case.

"Yes! I am the author of the parody.

Miss Christina is here this time because I want to sign a contract with the Stuart Gallery in Paris.

There are two parts to the contract, one is to entrust the plenipotentiary representative of Stuart Gallery to manage my paintings.

Of course, only 'flat imitation' oil paintings, I provide six 'flat imitation' oil paintings to Stuart Gallery every year.

When these paintings are sold, I get 50.00% of the sale price.

The other part is that Stuart Gallery is fully helping my company: China Artwork Company to develop its business in Paris, France, including but not limited to opening two stores.

In addition, it helps Chinese artwork companies to carry out touring exhibitions of Chinese traditional arts and crafts in European countries.

In return, for each exhibition held in a country, I will provide Stuart with an extra piece of 'flat imitation' oil painting.

That's about it. "Zhang Junping told Christina in detail about yesterday's negotiation with George Fairburn.

You must not have any reservations about your own lawyer, otherwise the lawyer will not be able to provide you with comprehensive legal services based on the actual situation.

Christina was very professional. After asking Zhang Junping a few more questions, she took notes in her notebook, and then asked with a smile, "Mr. Zhang, did you call me here just to sign the contract?"

"Hehe! Signing the contract is only one aspect. The next step is that China Artworks will develop business in Europe. I hope Miss Christina can become the legal advisor of China Artworks.

Provide legal support for the business activities of Chinese artwork companies in Europe and the United States. "Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"It's my honor, thank you very much for Mr. Zhang's trust." A quiet smile appeared on Christina's face.

It's not that Christina can't laugh, it's just that there are too many harassments in the workplace, especially for a beauty like her, who faces more harassment.

In order to protect herself, Christina could only pretend to be cold.

"You don't have to thank me, it's Miss Christina's professionalism that impresses me." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

Soon, George Fairburn sent his car to pick up Zhang Junping.

George Fairburn's car is a DS, Goddess commercial vehicle. This car brand is relatively unfamiliar to Chinese people.

However, it is a well-known luxury car brand in France. It was born after World War II and is known as the presidential car.

From de Gaulle to Hollande, DS is the best choice for the French president.

The car drove straight out of downtown Paris and came to a manor on the outskirts of the city.

"Dear Mr. Zhang, and two beautiful ladies, welcome to the Stuart Manor!" George Fairburn stood outside the manor castle and gave Zhang Junping a warm hug.

"Thank you, it is an honor to be a guest at Stuart Manor.

This is my lawyer, Miss Christina, and this is her assistant. "Zhang Junping and George Fairburne hugged each other and introduced with a smile.

"This is Jordan Penniman, and this is Louis Meli, both are great art dealers, my partners, we will jointly develop 'Print Copy'." George Fairburn stood Two middle-aged white men beside him introduced Zhang Junping.

"Hello!" Zhang Junping nodded politely to the two of them.

It's just that the attitude of the two middle-aged white men towards Zhang Junping was not very friendly.

Zhang Junping didn't care either, he understood very well: whoever he was, wouldn't have a good face if he was cheated.

He came to discuss business, not to make friends.

George Fairburn smiled awkwardly: "Dear Mr. Zhang, they feel a little uncomfortable. I hope you can understand."

"Understood! As long as it doesn't affect our cooperation, I can understand it!" Zhang Junping laughed.

"Of course not. They just feel a little uncomfortable, but they still agree with our cooperation." George Fairborn laughed.

Next, for the negotiations, Zhang Junping no longer needed to come forward directly, and George Fairburn naturally didn't need him to come forward either.

The lawyers of both parties will negotiate the specific details of the contract word by word, and finally finalize the content of the contract.

Zhang Junping drank tea and chatted with George Fairburn, Jordan Pennyman, and Louis Meli.

Some people may misunderstand that European countries only drink coffee, not tea.

In fact, this is a wrong understanding.

Europeans also drink tea, and a large part of the tea was transported to Europe through the Ancient Tea-Horse Road in ancient times.

Since the age of great voyages in the fifteenth century, Chinese tea culture has also followed ships and entered Western countries.

Before the [-]th century, tea was always the exclusive drink of European nobles.

European countries have formed their own tea culture according to their own eating habits. Most of them like to add some things to tea, such as milk, sugar cubes, lemons, various fruits and so on.

The French like to add mint, chocolate, and various flower petals to their tea.

This way of drinking tea is similar to the Chinese tea culture before the Tang Dynasty.

It's just that our ancestors have a strong taste and like to add condiments such as onion, ginger and salt to it.

"I didn't expect Mr. Zhang's achievements in Chinese calligraphy and painting to be so high.

Mr. Zhang has achieved such a high artistic achievement at such a young age

my country's greatest artist, Picasso, did not do this at Mr. Zhang's age. "George Fairborn admired a piece of Chinese calligraphy and painting presented by Zhang Junping and said with emotion.

"Mr. Stuart is over the top. At this age, Picasso has formed his own artistic style and began to experiment with changes in different styles.

And I, still learning to walk in HD. " Zhang Junping said modestly.
