"Boss Jin, how much is the price of the exquisite calligraphy and painting that Mr. Qi is exhibiting?"
At the end of September, Sun Jian bought a calligraphy work by Mr. Qi Gong at the Jiangcheng Cultural Relics Store, two square feet, for 750 yuan.
"Mr. Sun, when Qilao first became the chairman of the Calligraphy Association in 1984, one square foot of calligraphy and traditional Chinese painting could only sell for 100 yuan. Nowadays, there are more and more wealthy people, and Qilao's calligraphy and painting works are increasing year by year. I'm going to I visited the exhibition on Wednesday, and one square foot of calligraphy works was priced at 400 yuan, and one square foot of Chinese painting works was priced at 800 yuan."
"Please ask Boss Jin to take us to visit Mr. Qi Gong's calligraphy and painting art exhibition."
There are more and more wealthy people, and the calligraphy and painting of modern famous artists has also increased.
Cultural relics from the golden age of troubled times!
The room for appreciation of houses and stocks pales in comparison to the calligraphy and paintings of modern famous artists!
Rongbaozhai spent 80 yuan in the 1960s to collect the work "Ten Thousand Mountains Are Red" created by Master Li Keran. Forty years later, it was auctioned for a sky-high price of more than 180 million yuan, and its value increased by more than 2 million times!
Works by masters such as Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Xu Beihong, Wu Changshuo, Pan Tianshou, Huang Binhong, Lin Fengmian, Li Kuchan, Li Keran, Huang Zhou, Lu Yanshao and Wang Xuetao were popular all over the country in previous lives, with auction prices reaching tens of millions of yuan. However, in the 1970s, , Mr. Qi Baishi's one-square-foot authentic work only costs 100 yuan, Mr. Li Keran's 15 yuan, Mr. Wang Xuetao's 12 yuan, and Mr. Lu Yanshao, who has just debuted, only costs 8 yuan.
According to rumors on the Internet in his past life, Xu Huachi, the real richest man in China, was extremely wealthy. He moved to Xiangjiang in 1980 and returned to the capital in 1983. He spent 200,000 yuan to buy more than 9,000 modern and contemporary famous calligraphy and paintings sold by the foreign guest service department of the History Museum. Later it was worth 40 billion, and his assets exceeded Boss Ma.
After buying 9,000 paintings and calligraphy by famous modern artists for 200,000 yuan, forty years later, I am as rich as my country. I can be called a big winner in life!
Collecting can make a fortune!
The wool comes from the sheep!
In previous lives, auctions of calligraphy and paintings by famous ancient and modern artists often fetched hundreds of millions of dollars, and it was a game among the rich.
Sun Jian didn't believe these online rumors at first, and he was encouraged by some thoughtful people to encourage the nouveau riche to collect calligraphy and paintings by famous modern artists and act as a successor.
The painter Xu Huachi is the fourth son of the master of traditional Chinese painting Xu Lulu. He is the ninth in the family and is called Xiaojiu by famous artists. Later, he was called Jiuye in the collection circle.
Xu Lulu was Qi Baishi's disciple and the first manager of Rongbaozhai after the liberation.
Xu Huachi, who is intelligent and artistically talented, studied Chinese painting from his father since he was a child. His relationship with calligraphy and painting masters is unparalleled in the country, and his innate advantage of collecting paintings and calligraphy by famous artists is also unmatched.
In 1983, 9,000 calligraphy and paintings by famous modern artists were bought from the National Museum for 200,000 yuan, with an average price of 22 yuan per piece?
Wholesale price?
It might still be possible if it costs 200,000 U.S. dollars. Is Xu Huachi’s identity as a Xiangjiang native (British citizen) eligible for a large purchase? Don’t the leaders of the Xiangjiang Investment Promotion Bureau know that an authentic painting by Qi Baishi, Xu Beihong and other masters can be exchanged for an imported large color TV in Xiangjiang?
There is only one possibility: to send Xu Huachi to Xiangjiang to sell calligraphy and paintings by famous modern artists to earn foreign exchange for the country.
Don't treat everyone in the world as fools!
After Xu Lulu's death, the eldest son and his second son fought over the inheritance of more than 2 billion yuan left by their father. They fought against each other and took their mother to court. The inheritance dispute case was well-known in the world of calligraphy and painting and caused a sensation.
After the return of Hong Kong, the country integrated with the world, and art investment was treated as a business. Prices soared, and there were few opportunities to miss out.
In a previous life, out of a hundred calligraphy and paintings by famous modern artists that appeared on the cultural relics market, ninety-nine were fake, and the last one was a high imitation!
Those who come out to fool around will always have to pay back!
Without credibility, cultural relics markets all over the world will be closed to the public!
In the past four years since his rebirth, Sun Jian, intentionally or unintentionally, or by chance, in addition to purchasing a batch of monkey tickets and stocks, he also purchased two hundred and thirty-seven dollars in state-owned cultural relics stores in Jiangcheng, Chang'an and Shanghai many times. A calligraphy and painting by a modern famous artist, the purpose is to make money!
After rebirth, I believe in chance and cause and effect.
Resolve cause and effect, do more good deeds, accumulate more good karma, take it from the people and use it for the people!
Before coming to the capital, Sun Jian didn't know that Rongbaozhai was holding a calligraphy and painting art exhibition for Mr. Qi. Due to Jin Huifa's invitation, now that he was here, it was an opportunity, so he bought a few more paintings and calligraphy by Mr. Qi and spent this time. Make money back.
The paintings created by Mr. Qi have much fewer words than words, and have greater room for appreciation.
After Mr. Qi's death, the fine traditional Chinese paintings he created exceeded one million yuan, and a painting called "Country and Mountains" was photographed for a sky-high price of more than 55 million yuan!

The banner of "Qigong Calligraphy and Painting Art Exhibition" was hung above the gate of Rongbaozhai. Sun Jian could see Mr. Shu Tong's handwriting at a glance.
"Boss Jin, why do you have time to visit today?"
Ma Yuntao, the department manager responsible for selling the Four Treasures of the Study on the first floor, saw Jin Huifa walking in with Sun Jian and Chen Jie, and greeted them with a smile.
"Manager Ma, shall I accompany Mr. Sun from Jiangcheng to see Qi Lao's calligraphy and painting exhibition?"
"Hello, Mr. Sun!"
"Hello, Manager Ma!"
"Mr. Sun came at the right time. Mr. Qi was accompanying three calligraphers from Shandong Province to appreciate the exhibits."
The well-informed Ma Yuntao could tell at a glance that the young Sun Jian was extraordinary. He was followed by a bodyguard and he was a big buyer who came here because of his reputation.
"Manager Ma, let's go up and see the world?"
"Mr. Qi, I have brought you a big buyer, Mr. Sun from Jiangcheng. As a favor, I will treat you to a roast duck and a drink in Quanjude at noon."
Mr. Qi lost his father in childhood, his mother in middle age, and was childless. After the death of his wife who took care of his daily life, he was heartbroken. Later, he moved to a three-bedroom apartment in Dahonglou in the capital, where his nephew Zhang Jinghuai took care of the old man's food and daily life. He is open-minded and happy-go-lucky by nature. He is a frequent visitor to Dongxi Street in Liulichang. He is funny and amiable. He has been friends with Jin Huifa for many years.
"Xiao Jin, I'm worried about not having a place to eat at noon. It's better to be respectful than to obey!"
Ha ha……
"Hello, Mr. Qi, my name is Sun Jian. I am visiting Liulichang Street for the first time. I heard from Boss Jin that your calligraphy and painting works are on display in Rongbaozhai. I have admired your name for a long time, so I came here to appreciate it. You are busy with your work."
Most businessmen would want to pay him to have an inscription whenever they had the chance to meet Mr. Qi. He did not like to deal with such businessmen, but when young Sun Jian saw him, he spoke standard Mandarin, was neither humble nor overbearing, his eyes were calm, and his whole body was full of emotions. He exudes a gentle and elegant temperament, which is obviously different from ordinary businessmen.
The three calligraphers following Mr. Qi looked at Sun Jian and Jin Huifa with an air of looking at the nouveau riche.
Sun Jian will not be angry, this is the nature of a scholar.
Even if he becomes the richest man in the world, in the eyes of literati, he is still a businessman who smells like copper.
