Chapter 156
As one of the frequent visitors of the auction house, Zhong Bingwen is still quite famous.
A supervisor of the auction house received the group of people very warmly.
Afterwards, in the notarization, the five works were inspected and handed over to the auction house.
The auction will be held in an hour, which is still enough time.
Jiang Yichen also received a number plate, No. 137.
With Zhong Bingwen leading him, there was no difficulty or contempt.
Jiang Yichen felt that he seemed to have become famous in the calligraphy circle.
While waiting for the auction, people came in one after another and sat down according to their number plates.
Su Zhenglin also took the time to participate.
As the boss of a large group enterprise, he has a lot of money, and he likes to buy some calligraphy and painting works to decorate the facade, creating an impression of himself as an intellectual with a high level.
Apart from anything else, which employee of the company would not be surprised by his calligraphy and painting works and the books on the wall when he came to his office?
Although those books are just for show, he has not even read one or two, but the atmosphere is created there, and others will naturally establish such an image of a successful person in their hearts.
Not only that, buying more calligraphy and painting works can also attract the attention of these talented intellectuals, and the word-of-mouth evaluation will not be bad.
However, these were his previous ideas.
Now his idea is very simple. He can buy calligraphy and painting works, but he must buy works like Jiang Yichen's that can express his charm and influence people's hearts.
It was through Zhong Bingwen that he learned that Jiang Yichen would also auction several works at this auction, so he took time out of his busy schedule to come and participate.
As soon as he entered the place, he saw Mu Shaoqing of Yunhai Jade in Yun Province.
"Mr. Su, I knew you would come too."
Mu Shaoqing waved.
He was not from Kyoto, and it was not easy to integrate into the Kyoto circle. Following Su Zhenglin, at least it was more convenient.
Su Zhenglin nodded,"It seems that you are here for Jiang Yichen's calligraphy, right?"
A wealthy man next to him happened to hear it and was a little surprised,"Jiang Yichen's calligraphy? Who is Jiang Yichen? How come I have never heard of him."
Su Zhenglin smiled,"I bought a piece of calligraphy a while ago. This young man writes very well. Let's see if there is a chance to buy another one today."
In a month, Su Zhenglin fully felt the magic of Jiang Yichen's calligraphy.
His son originally had a hard time learning, but since he hung up this calligraphy work, his academic performance has greatly improved. In the most recent mock exam, his score increased by nearly 50 points!
It's incredible!
And when he was processing documents in the office, he was also very comfortable and efficient.
He even found a few problems from it, which slightly reduced the company's losses.
As bosses, they believe in Feng Shui and metaphysics more than anyone else.
Why didn't this happen before?
But... After hanging up Jiang Yichen's calligraphy, there is such a magical effect?
Of course, it can be confirmed that Jiang Yichen's works have the charm that can affect people's hearts, and their value is inestimable!
Mu Shaoqing came to Su Zhenglin's office again later, and he liked the calligraphy and paintings more and more.
But Su Zhenglin refused to give up any of his works, so he also wanted to come here to find an opportunity to sell the next one.
Su Zhenglin sat down, not wanting to talk too much about the magic of Jiang Yichen's calligraphy, which would easily attract powerful enemies in the auction.
But even if he didn't talk about it, the matter was not airtight, and it had already spread among the rich circle.
"Old Su, I heard that you spent 5 million to buy a new calligraphy work a while ago? Is it true?"
A boss with a big belly stretched out his fleshy hand and patted him.
Su Zhenglin smiled,"Mr. Li, you are really well-informed."
This Mr. Li is Li Longchang, the boss of Jinghao Capital. The company's market value is nearly 20 billion. Because it mainly deals with investment and funds, it is also a strong person.
Business people like to make money in harmony and have many friends.
There is no competition relationship among them. Although they are not particularly familiar with each other, they are also people in the same circle and occasionally have social interactions.
Li Longchang was still curious,"What's your name?"
"Jiang Yichen."
There is no way to keep this secret. The news of the calligraphy purchase has spread. Keeping the name secret is like covering one's ears and stealing a bell. Even though these people seem to be unaware, they are actually clear in their hearts.
It is estimated that 80% of them have heard about the magic of the calligraphy and paintings bought by Su Zhenglin, and they all want to buy one to take a look.
"Well, this name sounds nice. I'll take a look later. If there are suitable works, I'll buy one too."Li Shengchang nodded.
Time passed quickly during the chat.
By 3 pm, almost everyone had arrived.
There were nearly 200 people in the audience.
After a soothing live Chinese music, the auction officially began.
The auctioneer was a woman.
She was wearing a modern cheongsam with a high slit, which looked very fashionable. She had some thick makeup on her face, and her skin looked very fair under the light.
"Dear guests and friends, good afternoon!"
"I am Xiaoling, the host of this auction."
"Three days ago, the Chinese Calligraphy Association's calligraphy and painting exhibition officially ended. In this exhibition, a number of classic works emerged and received unanimous praise from friends."
"Today, we are holding an auction here, and we hope that everyone can get their favorite works."
"First, let me introduce the first auction item"
"This is a painting from Qin Simin of Kyoto Calligraphy Association."
Jiang Yichen was a little stunned when he heard this and glanced at Qin Simin next to him.
Qin Simin coughed lightly and said,"I am good at both calligraphy and painting, okay?"
""Spring Clouds at Dawn". The painting is 131*66.5cm, with a starting price of 500,000 yuan, and each bid increases by 5,000 yuan."
500,000 is a good price.
Jiang Yichen looked at the paintings on display, which were imitations of ancient Chinese paintings. The level was quite good, but on the one hand, they were imitations, and on the other hand, the level was just good, not amazing.
As for the reputation of the calligrapher and painter, it was not bad.
Now, Jiang Yichen is far inferior to these two old men in the calligraphy world.
Qin Simin smiled and whispered to Jiang Yichen,"How about my painting?"
"As expected of a master of calligraphy and painting, his skills are very high." Jiang Yichen raised his thumb and said,"How about I take a picture of it?""
"Don't, you're starting your own business, why waste money? If you really like it, I'll spend some time painting it for you."Qin Simin waved his hand.
He auctioned these paintings and calligraphy not for a lot of money, but just to show himself off.
After all, if there are no works, their status and fame will decline.
They have lived for so long, they still need some respect from the younger generations.
Since Qin Simin said so, Jiang Yichen did not insist.
Soon, someone offered a price.
"550,000"
"560,000"
……
In just a few minutes, the price slowly rose to 800,000.
This price was almost the upper limit of his value.
In the end, it was sold for 810,000 yuan.
The auction slowly continued, and soon, Jiang Yichen's first work was put on display.
This was an ordinary work written by Jiang Yichen using Zhong Bingwen's pen, ink, paper and inkstone. How much could he be worth?
Jiang Yichen also began to look forward to it.
