Inherit For Three Thousand Years

While Lu Jinguang was looking at Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao was also looking at him. Although Lu Jinguang's current main identity is a gallery owner, he doesn't look like a businessman, but more like a well-educated middle-aged artist.

After seeing Xiao Yao, Lu Jinguang took the initiative to greet him: Mr. Xiao, hello, I'm Lu Jinguang, the chairman of Jingyuan Gallery. I'm taking the liberty to come, but I'm sorry to bother you.

Mr. Lu's Jingyuan Gallery is well-run. Many young painters have become famous under the support of Mr. Lu. It is my honor to visit Mr. Lu.

Xiao Yao and Lu Jinguang were not familiar with each other, so he didn't want to waste time on him, so he asked straight to the point: This exhibition of contemporary artists is huge, Mr. Lu should be busy, right? Why do you have time to meet me alone?

I came here this time to inform Mr. Xiao of good news. Mr. Xiao's two works are very popular with the public. In the past few days, many collectors have quoted prices to our Jingyuan Gallery. One million quickly increased to seven or eight million. Before I left today, an old friend who was a collector called me. He liked your two paintings very much and gave a quotation of 10 million each. This offer is quite sincere, I wonder if Mr. Xiao has any intention of selling these two works?

Lu Jinguang didn't immediately express his intention for coming, and planned to use the two highly sought-after works in the exhibition to explore Xiao Yao's meaning.

Xiao Yao directly refused without hesitation, Sorry, I have no intention of selling these two works.

Does Mr. Xiao think the price is low? Or do you have other ideas? Lu Jinguang continued to ask.

The price is indeed too low, far below my expectations. And I have no idea of ​​selling these two works. I personally like these two works and plan to collect them for a long time.

If you look at artistic achievements, the price of 10 million yuan is really low. Lu Jinguang first affirmed Xiao Yao's opinion, But art also has a market, if a price is given according to the law of market value, then The price is already very sincere, and even if there is still some room for the price to rise, it should be almost at the top, Mr. Xiao, would you like to listen to my analysis?

All ears, Mr. Lu, please tell me. Xiao Yao really didn't understand the promotion of new painters' works. Considering Cheng Yu's future development, he was willing to listen to the advice of an expert, Lu Jinguang.

First of all, I want to affirm Mr. Xiao's achievements in art. I am also a painter. Of course, my talent in painting is very average and I have not achieved much so far, but my appreciation is still recognized. I think Mr. Xiao His artistic achievements in oil painting are already at the top level in China.

Lu Jinguang changed the subject, But artistic achievements cannot be equated with the price of artworks. The level of art is a matter of opinion. There is no objective criterion for judging the market price of artworks. There are many factors that need to be considered. , the artistic height of the work is only one of the factors.”

Analyzing Mr. Xiao's works specifically, the only advantage is that Mr. Xiao's works are widely acclaimed and appreciated by painters in the industry as well as critics and collectors. This starting point is very high. However, Mr. Xiao is too young. Your future There are at least a few decades of artistic life. If you are interested, you may create a dozen or more works of the same type. If your works enter the market in large quantities, the impact on the price will be great. These Uncertain factors will affect the price of your work.”

The reason given by Lu Jinguang is very realistic, Besides, it takes a process for the works of talented painters to enter the art market and be widely recognized by all walks of life. There are many such examples in history. Mr. Xiao is also an expert. I don’t need to give examples one by one.”

I am the owner of a gallery. I dare not say I am an authority on the pricing of the works of new artists, but at least I am an experienced person in the industry. From the perspective of promotion, the works of new artists enter the art market for the first time.

Pricing is very important. Under normal circumstances, our gallery acts as a pusher to push up the price of works as much as possible. However, this is only a general situation, and Mr. Xiao is a special case.

Speaking of this, Lu Jinguang's tone paused.

What's so special? Xiao Yao asked cooperatively.

Lu Jinguang took a sip of tea, and then continued unhurriedly: The special thing is that Mr. Xiao seized the best opportunity, and also produced the best works, which were recognized by the market in one fell swoop. This time the contemporary artist The art exhibition is sponsored by the Bali Academy of Fine Arts and co-organized by many art academies. It is the most influential art exhibition in the past 10 years. It is already a success if Mr. Xiao's works can be selected for this art exhibition.

What is particularly rare is that Mr. Xiao's works are still so outstanding, and now they have been widely recognized by the domestic art circles, and he has gone further on the road to success. It is recognized that Mr. Xiao will probably have a place in the world art world in the future.

Xiao Yao was indifferent to Lu Jinguang's compliment, so Lu Jinguang could only continue to say: This kind of special encounter is not for everyone. Although Mr. Xiao is a new painter, his future prospects are unlimited. I can see it. But what I want to say is that how to seize this special opportunity so that Mr. Xiao can go on a smoother path in the future will test the ability of the planner.”

Now that Xiao Yao recognized this, Lu Jinguang felt that he was more confident, In the past few years, we have increased our cooperation with many European art institutions, and the influence of our Jingyuan Gallery in the European art world cannot be underestimated. Yes. For this exhibition of contemporary artists, CAFA was able to get 80 works, and our Jingyuan Gallery has made a lot of efforts. Otherwise, it would be impossible for CAFA to hand in such an important exhibition. Give us Jingyuan Gallery to undertake.

Mr. Lu wants to tell me that after my works are exhibited in Paris, Jingyuan Gallery will also be able to carry out publicity and promotion in Europe. Is that what you mean? Xiao Yao asked.
