I started to become more self-disciplined at the age of 30

Chapter 122. Everyone has the dream of being a knight! Jiang Chen’s platform?

The number of people online exceeds one million!
but.

Be it Li Yumin, Zhang Li, or many other people in the live broadcast circle, they no longer cared about these things at this moment. They just looked at Jiang Chen, their minds still full of those sharp and chivalrous verses that Jiang Chen had just written. They imagined themselves as the protagonists in those verses, dominating the world.

The silence at the scene was broken by Jiang Chen himself.

Jiang Chen gently pushed Yan Ruyu's hand away, whispered thank you, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, this is all for today. I want to go back and rest. See you in the world!"

After saying that, Jiang Chen clasped his fists and bowed to everyone, like a knight in a martial arts TV show, then nodded to Han Qing and turned to walk towards the hotel without even glancing at anyone else or the stunning ancient poem he had just written.

It seemed that nothing mattered anymore, and Jiang Chen looked a little lonely.

Han Qing hurriedly caught up. She saw that Jiang Chen was a little tired, so she didn't care how many people were in the live broadcast room. She directly closed the live broadcast, reached out and grabbed Jiang Chen's arm, and helped Jiang Chen walk out through the path that automatically appeared in the crowd!

Pu Yuexi, Chen Xiaojia, Li Wen, and Wang Jing also woke up at this time and hurriedly followed, surrounding Jiang Chen to prevent him from being trapped by the people around him and unable to get out. They would not go out to play with Wang Yang today, but would rest early and set off with Jiang Chen early tomorrow morning.

No one blocked Jiang Chen's way on the scene. Everyone automatically made way for him. Every pair of eyes saluted Jiang Chen with admiration and respect in their eyes.

Wang Fei, Li Wenjun, Yan Ruyu, Sophia, Li Xinghong, Yang Wenjie, Huang Bo, Huang Wenqing and others behind him watched Jiang Chen leave without trying to persuade him to stay or saying anything.

Only after they saw Jiang Chen, Han Qing, Chen Xiaojia and the others disappear in the crowd did they retract their gaze and look at the piece of paper on the table.

Jiang Chen did not take away the original copy of "Xia Ke Xing".

They knew that this work would definitely remain with Wang Fei for a while.

Of course, they were not naive enough to think that Jiang Chen no longer wanted this work and gave it to them.

That is impossible.

All the people present, whether it was Wang Fei, Li Wenjun, Yan Ruyu, or the deans of famous schools such as Yang Wenjie, Huang Bo, and calligraphy masters like Huang Wenqing, no one felt that they were qualified to take the work from Jiang Chen. Being able to help keep it for a period of time was already a huge benefit for them.

Wang Fei took a deep breath to calm himself down, then under the gaze of everyone, he stepped forward and carefully put away the painting of the knight.

Li Wenjun, Yan Ruyu, Sophia, Huang Wenqing, Huang Bo, Yang Wenjie and others all had their eyes twitching wildly as they watched the painting. They all wanted to take the painting back home to enjoy it themselves.

The chivalrous poems between the lines and the calligraphy with every stroke filled with swords and sabers are all enjoyable. They can be said to be the most amazing and exciting words throughout the ages, awakening the dream of a knight in each of their hearts.

Li Wenjun and Yan Ruyu also quickly stepped forward to help Wang Fei and carefully put the things away.

The dense crowd of onlookers around had envy, amazement, and reluctance on their faces.

Pan Yao whispered, "It would be nice if we could go up and take a photo with this Xiakexing."

The assistant whispered, "Then go ahead. They won't refuse, right?"

Pan Yao smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Impossible!"

Although she is in the entertainment industry, her family is not an ordinary family. Although her family background is not as good as that of Wang Fei, Li Wenjun, and Qin Xuerong, she can also understand the background of these scholarly families and wealthy families in Beijing. She does not have the face to ask Wang Fei to make an exception for her.

Besides, there are so many people here. Once the group starts, everyone will want to take a photo. How long will it take to take the photo?
Among the crowd near the window in the room, Guo Haitao, Luo Sheng, and Zhou Ming were all silent, looking at the knight's demeanor that was put away by Wang Fei and others, their faces still flushed with excitement, their eyes full of envy and desire.

Zhou Ming whispered, "If Jiang Chen is willing, I am willing to exchange half of my wealth for this work. This is the first time in my life that I have seen ancient poetry and calligraphy that made my blood boil and I was so amazed. It is really well written."

Half of the wealth?
Guo Haitao and Luo Sheng have known Zhou Ming for many years, so they know roughly how much money Zhou Ming has earned. Half of his net worth is at least 500 million.

In other words, Zhou Ming was willing to spend at least 500 million to purchase Jiang Chen's authentic painting of The Knight's Path.

At this price, you can buy national treasure-level calligraphy and painting collections in the collection market.

The market value of the top ten famous paintings and calligraphy copybooks in history collected by several major museums in China is between 300 million to 500 million and 1 billion yuan.

A freshly-written work by Jiang Chen can be sold for 500 million?

Guo Haitao and Luo Sheng did some calculation in their minds and looked at Zhou Ming in shock.

Zhou Ming glanced at the two of them and said with a smile, "Don't look at me like that. I'm not speaking metaphorically, I'm speaking from the heart. If Jiang Chen is willing to sell, I will really sell half of my assets immediately to exchange for this authentic painting of the Knight's Path."

Luo Sheng speculated, "Why? Do you think this work will become a top national treasure in the future? However, even if it is a top national treasure, the price is only a few hundred million. There are only a handful of national treasures worth more than one billion in the entire history. Jiang Chen is only 30 years old, and we don't know how many works he will write in the future. If we spend 500 million to buy the original work of "Xia Ke Xing" now, and when he dies, it can be sold for hundreds of millions, which is a sky-high price."

Luo Sheng and Guo Haitao also have some understanding of the market trends of collectibles.

For a living and extremely young artist like Jiang Chen, the value of his works is not very high. For other living artists, if a work can be sold for hundreds of thousands, it is considered a super high price.

Even though Jiang Chen's authentic copy of The Knight's Path astounds the world, and his calligraphy is also extremely superb, with the strokes filled with swords and murderous intent, it's not worth this much, right?
Zhou Ming said softly: "Do you know what really supports the value of the collection?"

Luo Sheng and Guo Haitao were not yet qualified to play with collectibles, so they shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know.

Zhou Ming smiled and said, "Just three words, I like it!"

Luo Sheng, Guo Haitao, and several people around were stunned for a moment after hearing Zhou Ming's words, and then they all laughed and cried in sudden realization.

When they thought about it carefully, that was exactly the case.

What is the value of those antiques and artworks?
It's of no value.

Its value depends on whether it can attract some wealthy collectors.

As long as it can be recognized and liked by some wealthy collectors, it will have value.

If it can be liked and recognized by all the wealthy collectors, then its value will be very high.

If it can amaze and attract these wealthy people and collectors, its value will be incredibly high.

This is the reason why the works of some living artists in Europe and the United States can be sold for millions or even tens of millions of dollars.

obviously.

All of Jiang Chen's works also achieve this.

So, it is no wonder that the market price of Jiang Chen’s works is so high.

In addition, Jiang Chen's works are almost not circulated in the market, so the price will be even higher.

For top collectors like Li Zheng, Qin Hanming and others, what they pursue is not the return on investment, but their own preferences and the sense of superiority that others do not have.

They liked Jiang Chen’s works, and no one could buy them.

The more they will pursue it crazily and offer a sky-high price to buy it.

Zhou Ming was so impulsive at this time, more because he was too excited, because this poem awakened the knight dream in their hearts, so they were impulsive.

If he calmed down, he would definitely not be willing to spend more than 500 million to buy Jiang Chen's Xiake Xing.

because……

When he calms down, he will consider the pros and cons, consider his own wealth, and will be reluctant to spend such a huge price to buy a work of art by an artist who is only thirty years old.

That's the price I like + impulse emotions!
Many collectors in auction houses get carried away when bidding and call out prices far exceeding the market price, which is also due to impulse.

but!

At this time, Li Wenbin quietly came to Li Wenjun and whispered, "Wenjun, I will give Jiang Chen 100 million yuan. Can I buy this painting of the knight? I want to hang this painting in my office."

Li Wenbin was also very excited at this time. Looking at the Xiake Xing that was being collected by Wang Fei and Li Wenjun, he really wanted to snatch it and run away.

If he could hang this work in his office, he would sleep in the office recently.

Next time when you receive a big domestic client, bring this painting to the office and it will be full of style and will amaze everyone...

When Li Wenjun heard this, he rolled his eyes at his brother and whispered, "Don't dream. If Jiang Chen wants to sell it, I will buy it first and hang it in my study, not in your office."

Li Wenjun can also take out hundreds of millions of pocket money.

Wang Fei glared at Li Wenbin and said, "Don't use money to measure Jiang Chen's work."

Yan Ruyu and Sophia also glared at Li Wenbin, but did not say anything. They had the same idea as Li Wenjun - if Jiang Chen wanted to sell it, they would buy it at a high price first and would not let anyone else get it.

Kill one person in ten steps, leave no trace behind in a thousand miles!
It would definitely be a pleasure to hang such chivalrous poems and sharp calligraphy in your own room.

but!

They would never ask or quote from Jiang Chen.

They were afraid that Jiang Chen would be angry.

For the time being, this work is kept by Wang Fei, and they all have the opportunity to come and appreciate it up close occasionally.

Li Wenbin smiled bitterly. He understood Li Zheng's mood at this moment. He was really eager and wanted it too much. He felt that his hundreds of billions of assets were not attractive at all. He also understood why the market was so fond of Jiang Chen's works, and the prices were sky-high!

I want it, but I can't buy it anywhere...

So what else can we do besides keep raising prices?
For these wealthy collectors who are worth tens or hundreds of billions, when other methods are not feasible, they can only use money to solve the problem. It is really not expensive to spend tens of millions or hundreds of millions to buy something that makes them like to move. After all, who doesn't have tens of millions or hundreds of millions of luxury cars in their garage? And various famous watches and luxury goods worth tens of millions?

Compared with those luxury cars and luxury goods, Li Wenbin feels that it is really worth spending hundreds of millions to buy this painting of a knight.

Now the question is, how can I buy it?

Everyone around watched as Wang Fei, Li Wenjun and others collected Jiang Chen's original painting of The Knight-errant and took it away. Everyone felt a little lost and empty in their hearts, as if something most precious had been taken away.

Then, after a while, everyone began to slowly recover their emotions and gradually dispersed!

Jiang Chen left, and Jiang Chen's knight's journey was also taken away. There was no point for them to stay here, and the crowd gradually began to decrease.

Jiang Chen will leave Beijing tomorrow. Many workers who come to Beijing now feel that it is meaningless to stay in Beijing. They are thinking whether they should resign and return to their hometown, or go traveling?
All eyes and thoughts were drifting outside the capital. Zhang Li and Li Yumin had only just regained their normal thinking abilities.

Zhang Li's face flushed with excitement. She clearly remembered that when Jiang Chen was writing "Xia Ke Xing" just now, the number of people online in the live broadcast room had exceeded one million, reaching a terrifying number of one million online users. This was absolutely the first time in the history of the Penguin Live Platform and was an important milestone. It also meant that the platform's traffic had increased.

Before, the overall traffic of the Penguin Live Platform was not necessarily so high. This time, with the group's traffic diversion, Jiang Chen's live broadcast room attracted millions of people online, proving the success of the traffic diversion and also proving that the Penguin Live Platform has officially escaped the crisis of bankruptcy and started on the road to rise.

Li Yumin came to Zhang Li and said in a complicated tone: "Mr. Zhang, congratulations, Jiang Chen has brought you such a huge amount of traffic."

Zhang Li smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li, but it's still not as good as the huge traffic pool of DouYue."

Li Yumin shook his head and said with certainty: "Next time, I will definitely sign Jiang Chen and let Jiang Chen come to our DouYue to start live streaming. He has been our DouYue anchor since the beginning."

Zhang Li: "It's a pity that you didn't keep him. Next time we will continue to rely on our own abilities. I can get full authorization from our company's top management. As long as I can sign Jiang Chen, I dare to make any conditions. If Mr. Li can't get such authorization, you still won't be able to sign Jiang Chen next time."

Li Yumin fell silent. He knew that Zhang Li was telling the truth and was speechless.

If the contract he gives Jiang Chen next time is similar to this time and he just raises the price, then it will be meaningless. He still cannot compete with Zhang Li.

"We'll talk next time. Goodbye!"

Li Yumin said goodbye immediately.

Zhang Li: "Goodbye, Mr. Li!"

After watching Li Yumin leave, Zhang Li sat back in her seat and continued to enjoy the nightlife of Beijing happily, but immediately received a message from Mr. Yang of the company.

President Yang: "Jiang Chen's live broadcast room has exceeded one million people online! The group headquarters has come to inquire about it."

Zhang Li: "Yes, Mr. Yang, I was just at Jiang Chen's live broadcast in Beijing."

Mr. Yang: "Do you know what the group headquarters said?"

Zhang Li: "What do you mean?"

Mr. Yang: "The group headquarters said that the traffic pool they attracted to us was only about 500,000 people... They were curious why our anchor could attract a million people online? It was more than double the traffic they attracted!"

Zhang Li fell silent after hearing this.

To be honest, it was only at this time that she found out that the specific data of the traffic diversion by the group headquarters was only more than 500,000 people in total? This diversion strength was too small. It seemed that the group headquarters was still pessimistic about the future of the live broadcast platform, so they were reluctant to divert a large number of traffic.

How did Jiang Chen achieve one million people online in his live broadcast room?
She was also asking herself this question in her heart.

because……

This is somewhat incredible.

In other words, even without the group headquarters to divert traffic, the number of people online in Jiang Chen's live broadcast room could reach more than 500,000.

but……

The traffic of the Penguin Live platform simply cannot support a live broadcast room with so many people online.

unless……

All the users who were online at the same time on the entire platform came together to watch Jiang Chen’s live broadcast.

or.

Jiang Chen attracted a large number of passers-by through his works and live broadcast content.

Or is it.

The word-of-mouth reputation of Jiang Chen's many fans and audiences has attracted a large number of audiences to watch in real life.

The traffic-generating effect of these word-of-mouth methods is in no way inferior to the omni-channel traffic-generating effect of the group headquarters.

This requires an incredibly good reputation.

After thinking out the answer in her mind, Zhang Li simply summarized it to Mr. Yang and said, "That's because Jiang Chen's live broadcast content is too high-quality, his works are too excellent, and his reputation is too good, so the number of viewers continues to accumulate! This cannot be replicated."

President Yang: "We can't live without Jiang Chen!"

Zhang Li: "Yes, we can't live without Jiang Chen."

They were both sad and happy.

The good news is that Jiang Chen has attracted such a huge amount of traffic to Penguin Live, but people are worried that the platform will be hijacked by Jiang Chen's huge personal traffic.

after!

Can this platform still be called Penguin Live Platform?

Should it be renamed Jiangchen Live Streaming Platform?
but.

The worry in their hearts flashed away, and then they began to enjoy the fruits of victory.

The traffic has increased and stabilized.

Then, their Penguin Live platform has completely survived the crisis of bankruptcy. Next, they can discover more high-quality anchors to train, and try to divert some of the huge traffic from Jiang Chen to other anchors, so as to reduce the platform's dependence on Jiang Chen.

However, the audiences that Jiang Chen attracted all came to watch Jiang Chen's live broadcast room, listening to Jiang Chen's original high-quality singles, watching Jiang Chen's masterpiece-level poems written in master-level calligraphy, and watching super beauties such as Han Qing, Pu Yuexi, Chen Xiaojia, Wang Jing, Li Wen, and even Li Wenjun, Yan Ruyu, Wang Fei, Suo Feiya and many other Internet celebrities whose looks could not be compared with special effects...

What kind of content is needed to attract these audiences who are used to eating the finest delicacies from land and sea?

Zhang Li doesn't bother with these things, as they are not her business. She only needs to take care of Jiang Chen's affairs.

And in the backyard.

Wang Fei unfolded Jiang Chen's work again.

Li Wenjun, Yan Ruyu, Sophia, Li Xinghong, Wang Xuefeng, Yang Wenjie, Huang Bo, Huang Wenqing and others followed in. They were reluctant to leave as they all wanted to look at the original work that amazed them both in calligraphy and poetry.

Huang Wenqing came closer to look at it carefully, and said as he watched: "Jiang Chen has mastered the charm of the strokes to perfection. His emotions can be perfectly integrated into the strokes. Whatever he thinks in his heart, he can write it perfectly. This kind of master calligraphy, even in the past hundred years, compared with the dozen or so calligraphy masters that have appeared in the past hundred years, few people can achieve his level of freedom."

"It's hard to imagine that it took him only a few days to achieve master-level calligraphy."

Those who were present and understood calligraphy felt incredible again after hearing and watching this.

In their opinion, Jiang Chen's calligraphy is changing day by day, steadily improving to a higher level.

Every day's progress is enough for them to digest and practice for more than ten years.

Jiang Chen's progress in just a few days would take them a lifetime of practice and they might not be able to reach that level.

After all, art is not something that can be achieved by hard work alone, but also depends on talent! If you don’t have enough talent, it’s useless to work hard for a hundred years.

If you compare yourself to others, you will die.

Huang Wenqing, Huang Bo, Zhang Shuwen, Yang Wenjie and other calligraphy masters present all had looks of shame on their faces.

The progress they have made in calligraphy practice over the past decade or so is not as much as Jiang Chen's progress in one day.

……

Jiang Chen, Han Qing, Chen Xiaojia, Pu Yuexi and others returned to the hotel. There were all kinds of onlookers on the road, and they continued to the hotel entrance.

The audience on the road kept shouting and waving to Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen was exhausted, so he just nodded without making any further response.

After returning to the hotel, Jiang Chen said to Han Qing, Pu Yuexi and the others, "Go to bed early today, and have breakfast early tomorrow, and then leave after breakfast."

Naturally, no one had any objections and followed Jiang Chen's arrangements.

"Okay, I'll go wash up and go to bed now."

"Well, I'll brush my teeth, wash my face and go to bed right away."

"Old Jiang, you must be exhausted today. Go to sleep first. We will definitely not be late tomorrow."

"Good night, Lao Jiang..."

"Good night, boss!"

Several people expressed their concern and said goodbye to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen waved to a few people, then turned and walked into his room.

The people at the door breathed a sigh of relief, and then their expressions flashed with excitement.

Chen Xiaojia waved his hand as if holding a long sword, and said: "Kill one person every ten steps, and leave no trace in a thousand miles! Lao Jiang is really a god, to be able to write such an awesome poem. I want to buy a sword and carry it on my back now, and stab any bad guy I see along the way."

Pu Yuexi reached out and rubbed Chen Xiaojia's hair: "Then you'd better be careful not to be caught by your uncle."

Chen Xiaojia curled her lips, looked a little bored, turned around and walked into the room.

Han Qing returned to the room and first looked at today's live broadcast data, her eyes full of anticipation and excitement.

One million people were online just now...

How much income can you get?
