Hu Jinquan talked for a long time, and Li Yi was familiar with several of the names involved. However, this had nothing to do with them. Hu Jinquan also talked about it before gossiping.

This incident spread widely in the circle, but it was not made public. The final result was that a deputy leader of the Calligraphy Association resigned, two contest judges withdrew, and the final first prize was maintained.

"As long as it is a competition, these situations are inevitable, so how can there be no absolute fairness? It's just that smart people only focus on their daily life. If you are more famous and have a better popularity, and if you do have that level, you will certainly win the award naturally."

Zhong Haoqing disagreed with it. Such awards are subjectively important. Not to mention these middle-aged and young calligraphers, Picasso is so awesome, right? But even if he goes to the competition, he can't guarantee that there will be no time to fail.

In fact, if the gift was not revealed and finally confirmed, no one would have said anything more to the person who was later awarded as the first prize.

"Didn't I start chatting with Xiaoyi? He will participate in the competition in the future, so we should pay attention to these things now. Otherwise, if we cram the Buddha at that time, it will be the same as this guy now. Wouldn't that be too unfair? I thought that he is still a little tender and younger now, otherwise, according to his current level, he should hold a personal exhibition."

When he heard the master say this, Li Yi quickly said a few humble words and talked about the fact that he would attend the Shi Chongxuan Art Exhibition in two days. Zhong Haoqing nodded and agreed:

"If you want to be in a circle, necessary communication is inevitable. Life is not about playing stand-alone games, nor does it mean that you will definitely be recognized if you have a high level. In fact, it is the same for you to take out these ancient paintings. It also requires qualifications and voice to identify this circle."

Li Yi nodded, Zhong Haoqing was not wrong. In fact, in the circle of identification, the role of authority is sometimes more important. After all, not every cultural relic is undisputed, on the contrary, there are many controversial things.

If he and a famous senior in the appraisal industry were asked to identify the same cultural relics at the same time, it would be fine if the results were consistent. If there were differences, would others listen to him or the senior? The result was obvious. Not to mention the reason why the appraisal card could not be obtained in public, even if he took out a lot of real evidence, he might not be able to win!

There is nothing else. Others have used countless examples to prove their strength and prove that they have the level. This is the right to speak.

If he plans to make a fortune silently, of course he doesn't have to worry about this issue. However, as more and more cultural relics are collected, the issue of voice is becoming increasingly inevitable, especially after the establishment of a private museum, these things will become the target of public criticism, and the more precious it is, the more likely it is to attract jealousy. At that time, if the other party raises doubts and he doesn't even have the power to speak out, how can he play with others?

Therefore, many things seem simple, but when it is implemented, there will still be a lot of resistance, just like a popular film, and someone will still scold you to the point of being useless.

However, there is still a market inspection process for videos. It is not that some people say it doesn’t work, but it’s impossible to identify it? This thing is really professional and too small. Sometimes, a so-called expert can beat you to death, and even if you can’t beat you to death, you can be disgusting to death.

Li Yi didn't care about this before, but not caring does not mean he doesn't know. Especially since he has many possibilities, no, it is a treasure that will inevitably cause controversy. Unless he doesn't want to legitimate these treasures, he really must have a certain right to speak.

The identification is like this, and the calligraphy and painting are also like this.

He has worked hard to collect a lot of treasures. Even if he doesn't use them for profit, he will never want their value to be belittled by others. Similarly, who is willing to end up being so sad and helpless and humble to entertain himself?

People are people of society. When life no longer becomes a pressure, they will have other demands.

The same is true for Li Yi.

When the accumulation reaches a certain level, single-player games can no longer meet the needs of players. At this time, he will eagerly desire to have a stage to show the equipment he has and to show the skills he has practiced hard. This is really humane.

"Okay, Xiaoyi, go back first. Let us tell you other things after we have discussed them. You should also think more about it yourself. Sometimes, you can't make a fortune by relying on making a lot of money in silence!"

As soon as they came out of the master's house, Li Yi called Tan Moxuan. After the two made an appointment to meet in his villa, Li Yi made an appointment with Zheng Shusen to have dinner together in the evening. Since they decided to do it, they should hurry up early or late.

Tan Moxuan and Li Yi arrived in Yanyuan at the same time. Although the two met for a while, they had little contact with each other, so there was nothing to say about greetings. They sat down and got straight to the topic.

"I'm not very good at Western oil paintings, but if Monet's water lily can only be estimated at $35 million, it would be a bit difficult to exchange for what you said."

Li Yi smiled, why are you looking for you if it’s not difficult?

"However, it doesn't mean it's not feasible, especially for some scarce resources. Scarce resources are divided into two categories. One is that individuals will be salivating, and the other is that resources are scarce, and the people who need resources will also be scarce. The Western oil paintings you have in your hands belong to the former, and the cultural relics of my China belong to the latter. This is also the reason why those people are eager for the things you have in your hands."

"But, when it comes to business, desire does not mean that it is willing to suffer losses, so we still have to make a good deal of valuation. Take the acupuncture bronze man for example. First of all, equating it with the clinical trials of new drugs is nonsense. If antiques can be sold like this, can it still be called antique? The value of an antique is certainly related to its production cost, but the most important thing is the historical and cultural value it comes with, and the value judgment in this aspect is the most subjective. It can be said that if you like it, it is a priceless treasure. If you don't like it, even if it is a priceless treasure, you will abandon it as if it is a footsteps!"

"So if you want me to help you do this, first of all, you have to give me full authorization. You must be very sure of your attitude towards those things, which ones are guaranteed, which ones are dispensable, and which ones are not needed at all, and then what is left is my business."

Li Yi looked at Tan Moxuan in surprise. He didn't expect that this guy would talk to him like this. However, what he said seemed to make sense. Since he was doing business, he had to have a business attitude, although his business was a little different.

After acknowledging this, Li Yi began to think about what things were guaranteed and what were dispensable in Flangsova.

Two gold coins worth nearly 10 million were first excluded. If you want that thing, it was nothing more than a question of how much money it cost, and their significance was far less than the other ones.

The same goes for the "pure magic gun" of Emperor Qianlong. To put it bluntly, it is just a rare object that the emperor once played with. Of course, it is best to be able to win it. If it really doesn't work, it is not impossible, and it is not impossible to give up.

But that tiger slut is different. No matter what the other thing, it is just that the sentiment it carries is enough to make it a must-have. As for the bronze acupuncture, no matter what angle it looks at, it should be brought back.

"Okay, now I understand, when are you going to go there?"

"There is no need to hurry up. I want to wait until Luo Guofu collects more information before saying it. However, I need you to come here early, because there are still many things you have to participate in. It is a bit inappropriate to work on Tongruibao."

Next, Li Yi talked about the issue of treatment with Tan Moxuan, the basic composition is salary plus bonus.

The basic salary he offered to Tan Moxuan was three times that of Tongruibao, and the bonus was linked to the negotiation results, and was calculated based on the transaction amount.

"Come on, Lao Tan, let me show you a few things. If you have the ability to exchange them for me, I promise that your annual income will definitely exceed $5 million!"

"Yeah, 5 million, don't you pay the US dollar? You guy is putting a heavy bet now!"

Tan Moxuan's current income in Tongruibao is only 400,000 yuan a year, and it is incomparable to the number promised by Li Yi. Therefore, he also wants to know what Li Yi wants him to see, which can bring him such a high income.

"This one should be Monet's water lily, this one"

Tan Moxuan looked at the signature of the dragon flying phoenix dance in Cézanne's still life and said with a wry smile:

"I really don't have much research on this thing, just say it, whose painting belongs to it, what price it is, and what level of exchange it is to be used for."

"Well, this is a still life of Cezanne"

Before he finished speaking, Tan Moxuan exclaimed.

"Cezanne? The guy who currently holds the title of the most expensive artwork in the world? His still life, I think, curtains, jars, plates, $60 million!"

"That's right, but that price is already in 1999, so the price of this painting should be overestimated. There is also this painting, which is Monet's sunset, this painting is lunch on Renoir's boat. You can find these two paintings online and you should know their value. As for this painting."

Li Yi said, carefully opening the last oil painting. Then, Tan Moxuan widened his eyes and pointed at the picture and said stutteringly:

"Don't tell me, you snatched the Louvre!"
