Chapter 274 Getting Started

"I simply analyzed the data of a large number of auctions by the auction company. You can see that the small engraving "The Harlequin" with a signature and a plate number is estimated at 5000-7000 US dollars, and the transaction price is 6250 US dollars. In this exhibition, "The Harlequin" is signed , No version number. The same "Dwarf Dancer" signed version was estimated at 4000-6000 US dollars in the auction, and the final transaction price was 3750 US dollars, about 3340.5 euros, which was lower than the estimated price.

""Waiting" with a signature and a version number is 3500 euros, and an unsigned and no version number on Amazon is 295 US dollars. One piece of "Waiting" in this exhibition is signed and no version number. In 2014 A limited edition of "Mother and Child" was estimated at 2 euros, but it was a pity that the auction failed."

Wang Jiansen said like a few treasures: "I rule out restless hype, and calculate the price based on the normal auction price of about 3000-5500 euros with a signature and a version number, and calculate the price of all the prints at the price with a signature and a version number. That's 19.8 euros."

"The same method gives you 35 euros for all 12 pieces of pottery, but it's only 420 million euros. I'm curious how you calculated it when you boasted a work worth 10 billion euros?"

"Don't say I'm hypocritical! I specifically asked Bai Hua to check the quotation lists of two art companies. Guastalla Art Studio gave me an ideal price. They have 15 Picasso works, and they need to rent them for 2 months. 1.2 euros, of course this is only rent, excluding shipping and insurance."

"At the same time, they also clearly marked on the homepage of their official website that they have rented 15 Picasso works for an exhibition in a certain art gallery in BJ."

"Pesaro's official website is under maintenance, but I still have the rental time and rental fee list of all its works. There are 40 pottery works in this exhibition, and the insurance cost is 75 euros. It can be known that these 40 pottery works Estimated at around €75."

"All the prints were rented from two companies specializing in so-called Picasso works, Guastalla Modern Art Studio, offering 15 pieces. Pesaro, offering 21 pieces. All pottery was also rented from one of the companies, Pesaro offering 40 pieces All photos are rented from the archives of two photographers. Only 89 so-called "authentic originals" are left in the 5 publicized photos, or are they all fake paintings?"

Wu Tianyuan was also drunk, the dignified chairman of Wanda, how could he expose his old background like this?Shaking his head helplessly, he said, "I know why they didn't invite me!"

"They dare too!" Wang Jiansen laughed angrily: "If you don't say it, you will definitely not be able to invite you, a great god. If you really went, you would have scolded your mother on the spot!"

Wu Tianyuan poured Wang Jiansen full tea to calm him down. Also, after making the richest man look forward to it for a long time, it turned out that it was all fake paintings and rented gadgets?Who is not angry?

"However, as far as the matter is concerned, their series of publicity methods are in place, otherwise, brother, you wouldn't go to visit it, would you?"

Wu Tianyuan smiled and said: "A senior expert like you can see the way, but ordinary people who know? Seeing so many masterpieces of masters all at once, I'm already very excited!"

"Speaking of this, I am the most angry! If you visit it for free, it will enrich the public's artistic life and improve the taste. They sell a ticket for [-] yuan! More expensive than the Forbidden City and us! What a day!"

"The Picasso Museum in Barcelona, ​​tickets are 11 euros, about 80 RMB, and there are always 4251 original Picasso exhibits. The Picasso Museum in Paris, the normal ticket is 12.5 euros, about 91 RMB, and now there are 4398 original Picasso exhibits. Art Pompidou In the center, there are 301 authentic Picasso exhibits, and the ticket is 14 Euros, which is about 102 RMB. In addition, you can also see thousands of authentic works of other masters. The Metropolitan Museum has 1231 authentic Picasso works, and the museum ticket is 22 US dollars. See tens of thousands of fine art collections from all continents."

"Isn't this just cheating your own people? You want to earn back the rent through tickets?"

"Have these professionals in our country never seen any foreign exhibitions? Where is your professional ethics for such a poor exhibition platform? If there is such a specious exhibition in Europe and the United States, I believe there will be no famous critics." , The famous curator dares to go to the platform, otherwise it will definitely be a scandal in the industry!"

"And those so-called famous curators, critics, and curators who are on the platform for the opening ceremony, don't you even have a basic judgment on the standard of this exhibition?"

"Hundreds of media followed suit, without any professional knowledge and professional ethics? Or are you blind to art? Being fooled by others, you dare to send the full text of an unreliable draft? It’s not worthy to be called a media, but an advertising company at best!”

"I haven't been so angry for a long time, really..."

Wu Tianyuan poured tea for Wang Jiansen again, and comforted him: "My brother is angry because he really likes artworks and doesn't want them to be so commercialized, right?"

"It's still an old saying, a knife can be used to kill or save people! We will also learn from their publicity methods in the future. This is a mature business model. But we have a bottom line of principles. First, every piece of work is a good work of art. It is a classic that can resonate with the public. The second is that we do not rely on tickets to make money, all exhibits are owned by ourselves, and Tianyuan can't afford to lose that person!"

"Hey, let's not talk about it, I originally asked you to discuss the god-making plan today, but I complained for a long time."

Wang Jiansen took out a document with a smile, handed it to Wu Tianyuan and said: "This is our latest achievement. Lin Fengmian collected 580 pictures through various channels, including more than 300 large paintings and more than 200 small paintings. Shiraga Kazuo passed you in Japan. I have collected more than 300 copies of my relationship, and there are still many left in the world, so I will collect them slowly.”

"As for Luo Zhongli, Zhang Yunfei, and Luo Meng, they are all at the right age, and their works are not at the most mature stage. Especially the two little guys, in their early thirties, are just starting to create. Look..."

Wu Tianyuan nodded in satisfaction and said: "The progress is good. I will call all the seeds of the god-making project for a meeting in two days. They will all come and meet together. As for the style of the living artists? It mainly depends on themselves. To be new and change, we must step out of our own characteristics!"

"There's no rush for this. A master needs at least 20 years of accumulation. Even if we push the flames, it will take a long time for the public to accept it. But with Tianyuan and your reputation, plus the business operations of the few of us, it can be much faster. "

Wu Tianyuan sent Wang Jiansen away, and now the few of them are slowly shifting their work focus to the God-making Project. The company has matured, and professionals are worried about it.They prefer what they are doing now, they are passionate about their hobbies and national culture.

"Help me inform the new F4, and let them meet at the museum the day after tomorrow!"
