Shi Fei didn't know at all that someone was driving to arrest him, and at this moment he was thinking about how to sell these paintings.
For Shi Fei now, he is just a newcomer in the world of Chinese painting, not Mr. J who once auctioned for a sky-high price of 1 billion.
In order not to be seen by others, Shi Fei also hides his clumsiness when painting. This is mainly because if people know that he is Mr. J, he will definitely be blocked by domestic and foreign media scrambling to dig up information like before. He doesn't want to be like that again. harassed.
Fortunately, he hadn't shown up in public at the beginning, and later deleted all his information on the Internet, otherwise he would not have a peaceful life later.
At this time, the plum blossoms painted by Shi Fei can only be said to look pretty good. He has painted a total of six kinds of plum blossoms from different trees in six paintings, and they look pretty good. Compared with other painters in the art gallery, they are still far behind.
Many people who come to buy paintings do not understand whether the paintings are good or bad. They only buy paintings for collection value or to hang in the living room or study to increase their literati temperament.
There are also people who really like Chinese paintings, but Shi Fei's paintings are not good enough, and it is even more impossible for those who understand painting to buy these paintings for collection.
Other people's studios are crowded, but the studios they show are very deserted.
The assistant director discussed with Wei Weidong: "Why don't we find someone to buy one later? They have been painting for so long, but they can't even sell one. It's too shocking."
Wei Weidong thought for a while and said: "Don't buy it, this is a reality show, we must pay attention to the truth."
The assistant director didn't say anything anymore.
The art exhibition is not like a live broadcast of selling things, where you can bargain for a price or something, it will look like a vegetable market, usually customers watch it by themselves, and only ask people to come if they don't understand or have questions.
Shi Fei and the others will all sit on the second floor and watch the situation below.
Yu Wenwen drank water nervously: "We can't really sell a single painting, right?"
Li Hong said: "Others will definitely choose good-looking paintings when they buy paintings. I think my paintings are like chicken feet, and people with discerning eyes will not like them."
Jiang Yu said, "Why don't we sell paintings live."
That way, with their fan appeal, let alone a few pictures, it would be no problem to add a hundred pictures.
Shi Fei shook his head and said, "The program group stipulates that it is not allowed to show your face to sell paintings, otherwise it will not be considered as completing the task."
Jiang Yu sighed and said, "No one even went in to see, so we are really going to die."
Gu Yueze said: "It will definitely be sold." He looked at Shi Fei and said.
On the other side, Li Bowen was introducing a Chinese painting to his client. Today he is still wearing a black Tang suit with a golden dragon totem tattooed on the corner, looking very energetic.
What he will introduce here is a landscape painting with a length of 120cm and a width of 80cm, which is called "Thousands of Rivers and Mountains". It took him more than a month to complete the painting. The layers in the painting are distinct and the painting is realistic.
Even for those who don't know how to paint, it is still a pleasing work. Soon the other party bought Li Bowen's "A Thousand Rivers and Thousand Mountains" for more than six million yuan.
He showed a total of eight works today, and these are the works he is most satisfied with in the past six months. The one just now is the third one he sold, and it has only been more than half an hour since it started.
One of his students next to him praised: "Mr. Li, I just inquired about it. So far, your paintings have sold the most in the entire art gallery."
This is the case with painting, it is not a must-have, and sometimes it is normal for a painting to be put on display for a few hours without being sold.
Li Bowen's ability to sell three paintings in a short period of time really shows that he still has a reputation in the industry, and his painting skills are obvious to all.
Li Bowen took a sip from the thermos cup next to him, raised his neck and said, "How are those actors?"
The student showed a disdainful expression on his face and said: "None of them were sold. Among those few people, only Shi Fei and Gu Yueze's paintings were a little bit better, and the others' paintings were the same as ghost painting symbols. It’s insulting Huahua. Do you really think that Huahua can be called a painter by just taking a pen and painting two strokes on paper?”
Li Bowen nodded, the performance of selling paintings today allowed him to slightly calm down the confidence that was hit by Gu Yueze yesterday.
Listening to what the students said made Li Bowen feel better.
He was certain in his heart that Shi Fei and Gu Yueze must have learned traditional Chinese painting before, and they deliberately showed on the show that they wanted to set up a "student master". Feel angry and ashamed.
Li Bowen put down the cup and said, "Come on, let's go and have a look."
The student hesitated: "Teacher, it's not very good, there is a camera installed over there."
The implication is that after all, there is a program recording over there, and if it is broadcast later, it will not be good for Li Bowen's image.
Li Bowen glanced at him and said, "I'm not looking for trouble, I just went to have a look, maybe I can bring them some customers."
There are some things that are not as pleasant to be told by others as to see them with one's own eyes.
Li Bowen walked to the place where the art exhibition was displayed. Along the way, he met other painters and chatted casually. I heard that he was going to see other people's paintings. also became interested.
We went to see it together.
Shi Fei and the others were sitting downstairs, and they were also shocked when they saw Li Bo walking towards their painting exhibition.
Jiang Yu said, "What is he doing here?" After what happened yesterday, he didn't believe that Li Bowen was at ease.
Li Hong sighed, "I don't know." It is more tactful to speak in front of the camera. In fact, after yesterday's incident, Li Hong knew that Li Bowen was not kind. I hope he can look in front of the camera and worry a little bit.
Yu Wenwen thought: "Seeing that there are some people behind him, who look like customers. Could it be that they brought us customers?"
Li Hong gave Yu Wenwen a look, with an expression of 'girl, you are still too young'.
When those few clients saw the work that Li Bowen came to see, when they saw the work itself, their expressions were indescribable.
"Ms. Li, is this the painting you want to see?" One of the middle-aged men in a white suit said vaguely, "This painting seems to be relatively early."
This is very euphemistic.
Li Bowen said with a smile on his face: "These painters are all newcomers, and their paintings are a little lacking. Our literature club is very supportive of the newcomers now, and we hope to tap their talents. You can't just because they are newcomers. Look down on them, you must know that they are all potential masters in the future, and the price of taking pictures of their early works is not expensive, and when they become popular in the future, these elementary paintings in your hands will become valuable."
This is quite euphemistic, but it is a pity to tell others that these paintings are all drawn by newcomers.
Some of the participants did not know how to draw, but when they saw these simple paintings, they thought they were the simple works of some master.
I didn't expect it to be a pure newcomer. Although Li Bowen's words are nice, there are a lot of people who paint these days, and a few of them are really popular.
No one's money comes from the wind. Even if the painting is cheap and has no room for appreciation, they have no interest.
Yu Wenwen heard from upstairs, "This Li Bowen is too bad, how could he do this."
Shi Fei said: "Actually, what he said is correct. We are indeed novices in front of these masters of traditional Chinese painting."
Jiang Yu gritted his teeth angrily: "Then what should we do? Our paintings were never seen by anyone, and even more so after doing this, how can we sell them?"
Li Hong said regretfully: "I feel that Shi Fei and Gu Yueze's paintings are not bad. If there is no our paintings to set off, they might be able to sell."
Shi Fei said with a smile: "No rush, whether a piece of work can be sold or not depends not only on the painting itself, but also on the eloquence of the salesperson."
Shi Fei got up and straightened his clothes, and then saw Gu Yueze who was wearing a black suit next to him and said, "I think you look good. You will be my trustee later, and you will be my client."
Gu Yueze nodded: "Yes."
Li Hong was stunned: "What do you two want to do?"
Shi Fei smiled and said, "Go fool the client." Then he whispered something in Jiang Yu's ear.
Jiang Yu nodded quickly: "No problem."
Shi Fei and Gu Yueze went downstairs while Shi Fei discussed with him softly.
He spoke too quietly, Jiang Yu couldn't hear what he was saying, so he felt that seeing the smirk on Master's face, did he think Master was going to play tricks again
Gu Yueze went downstairs first, and went to the studio. Li Bowen was so angry when he saw the other party that he didn't want to talk to him.
Another point is that Gu Yueze's aura is indeed a bit strong, I didn't feel this way yesterday, why did he come in with an elite aura.
Gu Yueze was copying his pocket with one hand, looking at the paintings on the wall with deep eyes, one by one.
Gu Yueze, the man in the white suit just now, had a serious expression, and he had a good temperament, so he should be a rich man, so he took the initiative to remind him: "Sir, these paintings are all drawn by beginners. If you like to collect, there are actually more good works out there.”
Gu Yueze didn't pay attention to him, instead, his eyes stayed on the orchid painted by Li Hong, and said: "This painting is not bad."
The man in the white suit: "..." I looked at the painting again, isn't it good
At this time, Shi Fei made his debut, and walked up to introduce enthusiastically: "Guest, you have taken a fancy to this painting, right? Shall I introduce it to you?"
Gu Yueze: "Yes."
Shi Fei showed a kind smile and introduced: "Guest, your vision is really kind. This orchid is a painting by Ms. Li Hong. She uses the pointillism painting method. Although this orchid looks ordinary , that’s because he also added the abstract painting method. In the 1990s, Mr. Wu Hengzhong liked to use this painting method in his early works... "
These people are basically businessmen. Shi Fei had just debuted not long ago, and everyone didn't know him, and it was even more impossible for Gu Yueze, the big boss.
When Shi Fei mentioned Li Hong, they weren't too surprised. The name was ordinary, and the same name was also normal.
What everyone is curious about is, is this orchid, which doesn't look very good, so brilliant
Li Hong, who was sitting upstairs, listened to Shi Fei's compliments, and said in a daze, "Is my painting so good? Why didn't I know?" She almost believed Shi Fei's compliments.
Gu Yueze asked: "I don't understand those painting techniques, so I just look at it and it's okay. I just want to know, is there any room for appreciation after I buy it?"
Shi Fei clapped his hands and continued to sell: "Of course the value has increased. The value-added space of Chinese painting is still very large. Some time ago, a pig appeared in South Africa. Its abstract paintings were sold at auctions for as high as 27,000 yuan. .You see, a pig can draw like this casually, so is it possible that people can’t draw as well as a pig?"
Jiang Yu turned his head and asked the people next to him, "Pigs can draw? Shi Fei made it up..." Master, even if you are my master, I still find it hard to agree with this lie.
Yu Wenwen took out her mobile phone to search, and said in surprise: "Really, what Shi Fei said is true, there really is a pig in South Africa who can draw."
Jiang Yu: "..." So I'm not even as good as a pig
Shi Fei at the bottom was still selling, and some professional terms popped up from time to time, which looked extremely professional, attracting more and more people around.
At first Li Bowen heard Shi Fei and Gu Yueze singing together, but he didn't take it seriously, but when he looked at the back, Fei Niu became louder and louder, and the abstract and pointillist schools all came out, scaring the people around him. The people in the room were stunned for a while.
Gu Yueze asked: "How much is this painting?"
Shi Fei said: "Not too much, not too much. The unified price is 198 yuan. You see, this price is cheap. For a noble person like you, drinking a bottle of red wine is more than this price. And what we get from selling this painting All the money will be donated to charity, which means that when you buy a painting, you are doing good deeds, and you can also get a painting with value-added space. This business is simply not too cost-effective.”
Gu Yueze's well-defined jaw was tense, and then he said, "I'll buy this painting."
Shi Fei said: "Guest, what's your name?"
Gu Yueze: "My surname is Gu."
Shi Fei: "Mr. Gu, then you have to go and pay the money first, and then I will also put away this painting for you and give it to you in a while."
The man in the white suit next to him was stunned, and couldn't help asking, "Is it really that good? What about the lotus next to it? Tell me about it."
Shi Fei: "This lotus is amazing. He uses abstract and fauvist painting techniques, combining Chinese and Western styles. You can see that this lotus has distinct layers, and the buds are clear and beautiful. The most important thing is that the lotus leaves he also added. Impressionist painting…”
Yu Wenwen was upstairs, and she was about to laugh, "Sister Hong, do you think Shi Fei is an opening picture? A few catties and a few taels, I almost believed it."
Li Hong nodded and said in admiration: "Absolute sales talent, after this program is broadcast, it is estimated that many sales companies want to poach him. Gu Yueze and Shi Fei also cooperated very well, and the two of them are definitely great together. Profiteer."
Over there, when Li Bowen saw that there were really people who were fooled by Gu Yueze and Shi Fei into buying paintings, he was about to open his mouth to stop the exposure.
At this moment, Jiang Yu came down, hugged Li Bowen and said, "Mr. Li, you are here. I happen to have something to ask you about painting."
"No, that me..." Before Li Bowen finished speaking, Jiang Yu forcibly dragged him away. It can also be said that he was dragged away without giving the other party a chance to speak.
Under Shi Fei's vigorous promotion, Shi Fei's eloquence and humorous explanations are interesting, even if some people know that he is talking nonsense, anyway, a painting is less than two hundred yuan, which is simply a drop in the bucket for these people. Soon Li Hong and Yu Wenwen's paintings were sold out.
Shi Fei was about to strongly recommend his own paintings, when someone came in, wearing a suit and tie, he looked like an elite white-collar worker.
The man put one hand in his pocket, looked at the paintings on the wall, and said, "I want all of these paintings."
The other party ordered six paintings in a row, and those six paintings happened to be Shi Fei's paintings.
Shi Fei looked at each other: "Sir, are you sure?"
The man in the suit: "Help me pack it."
Shi Fei replied: "Okay, please go and pay the money first, and I will arrange it for you right away." The other party bought six of his own paintings, and Shi Fei even suspected that he knew that he was J. Sir.
Thinking about it, I think it is impossible, except for a few people who already knew about the traces that I erased, who can find out.
Wei Weidong's heart was bleeding. If others couldn't recognize who this later man in a suit was, he wouldn't be able to either.
The person who came to buy the painting was obviously Mr. Gu's assistant Zhang Tezhu.
Mr. Gu, you are cheating.
Shi Fei sold nearly ten paintings in a promotion before, and this person came over and bought six at once. According to the previous agreement, the program team will donate 100 yuan for every painting sold. Ten thousand, after more than a dozen paintings, there will be a donation of 16 million here alone.
Well, the money for this sponsorship was originally paid by Mr. Gu, and it was his own money that he wanted to cheat. Director Wei has nothing to refute.
After that, Shi Fei continued to use his eloquence and sold all Jiang Yu's paintings.
The task that was originally thought to be very difficult, but with the cooperation of Shi Fei and Gu Yueze, it was completed very smoothly, and everyone was able to go back early.
When Wang Pingyang hurried to the Zijin Art Museum, Shi Fei had already gone back to the Xianmeng Literature Club, and Mr. Wang, who had been away for a while, hurried to take a taxi to the Xianmeng Literature Club.
At this time, Shi Fei was packing his luggage and packing up the things in the room one by one, preparing to end the two-day and one-night first issue of "The Sims" theme shooting.
After the incident of selling paintings just now, the barrier between Gu Yueze and everyone has been reduced a lot. Although he still looks like he doesn't talk much, everyone is used to it.
Shi Fei was arranging his luggage there, and saw Gu Yueze who was also arranging his luggage, he thought for a while and said, "Gu Yueze, I didn't want to talk about it at first, but actually I think you should wear your usual casual clothes when you participate in a reality show It's better, if you dress so formally, it will give people a sense of distance."
Gu Yueze asked: "Do you also feel a sense of distance?"
Shi Fei nodded and said, "At first I thought you were aloof, and you should be the kind that is difficult to get in touch with, but after getting in touch with you in the past two days, I think you just look a little aloof, and you are quite a nice person."
Gu Yueze asked again: "Then do you think it's better for me to be aloof or approachable?"
Shi Fei thought for a while and said, "Actually, it's all good. It's just that the personality is different. It's just that people who are too cold will suffer a little when they make friends at the beginning."
Gu Yueze didn't say anything more.
Shi Fei tidied up the suitcases, and the two pushed the suitcases out together.
After two days and one night of filming, Yu Wenwen said, "I'm really reluctant."
Li Hong raised her eyebrows, and deliberately jokingly said ambiguously: "Are you reluctant to bear people or this environment?" When he said this, his eyes kept looking at Jiang Yu Shifei and Gu Yueze.
Yu Wenwen stomped her feet and said, "Sister Hong, what does that look mean?"
Li Hong said with a smile: "It means whatever you think it means."
Jiang Yu stepped forward and hugged Shi Fei's shoulder with one hand and said, "Shi Fei, I can't bear you."
Gu Yueze looked at Jiang Yu's arm around Shi Fei's shoulder, and was about to reach out to take it off for him, when he heard a lion's roar: "Shi Fei."
Shi Fei, who was about to reply, was terrified when he heard the roar. When he looked up, he saw Teacher Wang Pingyang's angry face.
Wang Pingyang, who was rushing back all the way, bumped into Shi Fei who was about to leave.
Shi Feijiao reacted before his brain, dropped the suitcase, turned and ran.
"Stinky boy, you still dare to run, let's see how I deal with you." Wang Pingyang picked up the broom next to him for sweeping the floor, passed by Jiang Yu, Gu Yueze and others, and rushed up to beat them up.
Shi Fei yelled loudly while running: "Mr. Wang, why are you back?"
Wang Pingyang held up the broom and chased after him: "What's the matter? You don't want to see me, do you? I bought a plane ticket and came back overnight after the game. I finally caught you. You still want to slip away today."
Shi Fei hid behind a viewing stone and said, "Mr. Wang, don't run after me. You're already old. I can't bear it if you bump into me."
Wang Pingyang said angrily: "I knew it, you boy don't expect to treat me well."
Over there, Li Bowen heard that Mr. Wang Pingyang chased Shi Fei and beat him as soon as he came back. Although he didn't know why, how could he miss this excitement.
Li Bowen was not the only one who had this kind of thought, many teachers and students from other colleges also ran out.
Shi Fei felt like crying, and walked back and forth with Wang Pingyang at the viewing stone, "Mr. Wang, stop chasing me. If you have anything to say, let's sit down and talk slowly."
Wang Pingyang swung his broom with a stick, but missed anyone, and said angrily, "If you have anything to say, come here first and let me beat you up. I'll see if I don't break your hand today."
"Old Wang, if you dare to move your hand, I'll throw your jade chess set into the coop and feed it to my chickens." Tang Xiangyang said anxiously when he heard this sentence as soon as he came out.
When Shi Fei saw that Teacher Tang Xiangyang had also come out, he immediately wanted to cry, didn't he say he was not there? Why did they all run out.
Wang Pingyang also remembered that Shi Fei's hands were still very tight, "Then I'll grab his ears, this kid is too disobedient."
Tang Xiangyang objected: "No, this kid is good-looking, you can't do anything lightly, what if your ears are broken."
Wang Pingyang asked anxiously, "Then where should I fight?"
Tang Xiangyang said: "Spanking his ass, his ass is useless."
Shi Fei: "..." You two, do you want to do this
Li Hong and the others over there looked confused, and asked Yu Wenwen next to her, "What's going on?"
Yu Wenwen shook her head: "I don't know." Then she looked at Jiang Yu and asked, "You and Shi Fei have known each other for a long time, do you know what's going on?"
Jiang Yu also shook his head. The two of them were chasing and beating their master, but the other party was old enough to be his grandfather, so he couldn't help him.
More and more people from Xianmeng Literature Club gathered around.
