Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful
Chapter 654: Some are happy, some are worried
There was laughter in the room.
Professor Qin was happy for his student after hearing the good news. He was worried that if Jiang Zhe suffered some unnecessary setbacks or malicious attacks at this stage, it would be detrimental to his future growth. Fortunately, the result of this auction refuted those rumors very well.
Wang Zhen was happy for Jiang Zhe, thinking that since the Times Auction had a better result than expected, perhaps Christie's would have better news.
Jiang Zhe was not too excited when he was chatting with Professor Qin and Wang Zhen.
He calculated that, excluding the additional 17 yuan end-of-month reward, the auction price was basically the same as the previous price. It can be seen that even in the annual spring auction, which is very important, Times Auctions has not been able to achieve a breakthrough.
Professor Qin held the cup and asked, "When will we get news from Christie's?"
Jiang Zhe said: "Maybe not that fast, after all, there is a time difference."
Professor Qin drank the little wine left in the glass and stopped Wang Zhen from adding more wine: "I won't wait any longer.
I feel relieved with this good news. Although I am happy, please don't wait too long and go to bed early."
Jiang Zhe and Wang Zhen sent Professor Qin back.
Professor Qin walked to the door, stopped, turned around and reminded Jiang Zhe: "When you go to the event tomorrow, if you meet Liang Gui, or someone asks about this matter, don't act too proud. Since you won a game, give the other party some leeway."
Jiang Zhe said: "Don't worry, I know what to do."
After seeing Professor Qin off, Wang Zhen said, "I won't wait any longer. Call me as soon as you get the news. I'll go get ready for tomorrow. Also, I'll get someone to spread the news about the Times Auction. I guess a lot of people are asking about it."
As she was talking, her cell phone rang.
Wang Zhen glanced at the phone, picked it up and chatted briefly.
What Jiang Zhe heard Wang Zhen talking about was the transaction price of his own works.
Wang Zhen put away his phone and said to Jiang Zhe, "Sure enough, someone came to inquire about the news. Let them feel uncomfortable."
She grabbed her backpack and said, "I'm back."
Jiang Zhe saw Wang Zhen off, turned back to his room, quickly packed up, picked up his backpack, walked out of the room, went downstairs, and took a taxi to Sister Liao's residence.
On the way, he sent a text message to Sister Liao.
As soon as I knocked on the door, Sister Liao opened it.
Looking at Jiang Zhe outside the door, she smiled and said, "Come in quickly, why are you here so late?"
When Jiang Zhe walked in, she asked again: "What did you eat tonight? Did you drink?"
Jiang Zhe briefly recounted what happened today.
Sister Liao smiled and said: “It’s worth celebrating.
In the afternoon, when I heard about the conflict between you and Liang Gui, I knew that you were fine and there would be no problem.
Tomorrow, do you want me to help you?"
Jiang Zhe said, "No need. I can handle it."
Sister Liao approached Jiang Zhe, sniffed him, and checked his clothes. "The clothes are a little dirty. Change them and send them to the dry cleaner tomorrow."
Jiang Zhe said, "I only wore it for one day."
"No, you have to change into new ones tomorrow. Go wash up first. I have prepared a gift for you." Sister Liao helped Jiang Zhe change his clothes.
Jiang Zhe and Sister Liao played around for a while before going to wash up.
Sister Liao quickly folded Jiang Zhe's old clothes and walked into the bedroom.
When Jiang Zhe walked out of the bathroom and saw that the lights in the room were dimmed, he asked, "Sister Liao?"
Sister Liao's voice came from the bedroom.
Jiang Zhe pushed open the half-open bedroom door and saw Sister Liao changed into yoga clothes, and his blood immediately boiled.
He closed the door with his backhand...
……
Liang Gui took a cigar and took a deep puff, letting the smoke swirl in his mouth before exhaling.
The smoke made the atmosphere in the study even more solemn.
Liang Gui put down his hand holding the cigar too quickly, causing the cigar ash to suddenly break and fall on his pants. He was so angry that he slapped his pants to shake off the cigar ash.
Li Lu, wearing a snow-white silk pajamas, came over to help clean up. After cleaning up, she poured Liang Gui a cup of tea. "Wait a little longer, there should be news soon."
Liang Gui put down his cigar silently.
He was full of confidence at first, but as time passed and he thought the auction should be over, he became a little uneasy.
"Will the message spread out have any effect?"
Li Lu knew what Liang Gui was asking. Today, she said some bad things about Jiang Zhe to some clients.
She encouraged Liang Gui: "Don't worry, our channels are fine, and it will definitely reach some buyers. These buyers will also communicate with each other, but the time is a bit short, and I don't know how much impact it can have."
While Li Lu was talking, she sent and received text messages from time to time.
After waiting for a while, the cell phone rang.
She took a look and immediately answered the phone.
Liang Gui lowered his eyelids and pricked up his ears.
Li Lu’s expression didn’t change when she answered the phone: “…Okay, I got it, thank you.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
Who told you this news? ...
OK, I understand. "
After a few pleasantries, he hung up the phone.
Liang Gui looked at Li Lu.
"How about it?"
"There's news." Li Lu paused for a moment and said, "It's Old Song. He found out that a portrait of Jiang Zhe was sold at a special auction held by Time Auctions."
"price?"
"It seems to be, 82."
Liang Gui's face suddenly turned gloomy. After a moment, he pounded the armrest of the chair, stood up and paced.
Li Lu knew Liang Gui's character and was already very angry at this time.
"The information he got may not be accurate. I will call Times Auction directly to confirm it." Li Lu dialed a number. Although she had only met this staff member once, she was very clever in congratulating Times Auction on its success and obtained accurate information indirectly.
Although Liang Gui knew that there was little hope, he still hoped to hear news that he would like to hear.
Li Lu's call lasted a long time, and she also wrote down a lot of information that she was concerned about.
After Li Lu hung up the phone, Liang Gui asked, "What was the result?"
Li Lu met Liang Gui's gaze and said frankly: "My friends at Times Auction told me that the contemporary painting special session of this spring auction was very successful, and the prices of many people's works have increased compared to before. Of course, this may be their own statement.
The auction price of Jiang Zhe's work was indeed 82.
This friend said that today's bidding was more intense than expected, and maybe Jiang Zhe was lucky enough to win. "
Liang Gui sighed, remained silent for a while, and said through gritted teeth: "These painters in their thirties and forties are not motivated at all, and let the young man become famous!"
Li Lu didn't say anything.
"By the way, his works will also be auctioned at Christie's. Can I ask about it?" Liang Gui said.
Li Lu didn't want to say that she had no way out, so she said, "Not so fast, maybe we'll know the news tomorrow. Okay, don't take it personally, it's just a coincidence.
Tomorrow, we won't be attending the event. I'll go out with you to relax."
"Go, why not?" Liang Gui said, "If I don't go, many people will think I'm scared."
Li Lu knew what to say at this moment. "Lao Liang, you are most heroic and charming when you are full of fighting spirit."
She used sweet words to divert Liang Gui's attention and at the same time began to think about some of the news he had just heard.
"Lao Liang, I have written down these works from the Times Auction. Take a look. Is there anyone familiar with them?"
Liang Gui reacted: "They also have competition?!"
Li Lu wrote down the information she remembered on paper.
"It can help us keep in touch with each other." (End of this chapter)
