"The tenth oil painting is Roy Lichtenstein's work "Masterpiece". It is a masterpiece as its name suggests. As the most famous pop art artist, Roy Lichtenstein's style is the easiest to recognize. He is good at combining comics and advertising styles and borrowing popular culture to express his works. Roy Lichtenstein's most iconic features are his tones and large dots. He thinks these are the things that best represent the American people's philosophy of life. This oil painting, which does not look like an oil painting, was bought by the director at Tom's Auction House on Queens Road for 165 million US dollars."
After listening to Huang Wanyu's detailed introduction, Fang Yuan was stunned.
Isn’t this too luxurious?
An oil painting costs hundreds of millions of US dollars.
My goodness, just one painting is worth many times more than your son’s pocket money?
You finally gave me 500 million yuan as your son, and you also had other requests.
Is this fair?
Fang Yuan was furious. He felt that all the good things were enjoyed by his mother Lin Wanqin.
He traveled to various countries and bought oil paintings worth hundreds of millions at auctions.
Have you ever thought that your son, I, was suffering from the hardships of life at that time?
At that time, Fang Yuan wished so much that he had a rich woman who could see through his tough disguise.
Tell Fang Yuan that as long as he follows her, from now on he will only live off her and will not have to endure any hardship.
Of course, the entire corridor was magnificent, but the light was completely blocked by the oil paintings worth over 100 million yuan hanging on the walls.
Ten oil paintings are worth 2.193 billion US dollars.
Worth more than 13.8 billion RMB! ! ! ! !
Oh my god, Fang Yuan felt terrified just thinking about it.
If you just leave it in the corridor, aren't you afraid it might be stolen?
Like in the movies, there are thieves like the Cat's Eye Sisters who specialize in stealing this kind of artwork.
Speaking of the Cat's Eye Sisters, each of them was wearing tights, which seems a bit erotic when I think about it now.
"The director's office is in front."
Huang Wanyu's words interrupted Fang Yuan's thoughts.
After walking through the long corridor, Huang Wanyu pushed open a door inside.
The door opened, revealing Lin Wanqin who was sitting at her desk working inside.
There is a microphone next to Lin Wanqin.
No wonder even in such a small space, the voices talking can be heard outside the door. It turns out it’s all about technology and hard work!
"Come in, why did you come to see me for the first time in your life?"
Lin Wanqin glanced at Fang Yuan and started to complain.
Before Fang Yuan could speak, Huang Wanyu beside him said, "Director, please go ahead and do your work. If you need anything, just call me."
After saying that, Huang Wanyu went out sensibly.
Fang Yuan then slowly spoke: "Mom, you are too extravagant, aren't you? Buying 10 paintings will cost you 13.8 billion! You are too corrupt, you have never given me, your son, so much money!"
Lin Wanqin didn't expect that Fang Yuan's first words would be this.
She smiled and replied, "You don't understand. All the money I spend is in US dollars, which cannot be transferred back to China. You know, I don't know how much I will lose if I transfer it. It would be better to exchange those US dollars for these artworks, which can preserve their value. Also, I buy these paintings not to make money, but in our line of work, we need to be polite."
After Lin Wanqin said that, Fang Yuan understood.
Lin Fang Law Firm is in the financial field. Why are all financial firms located in the best and most expensive CBDs in every city?
It’s because I want to look good and give people the impression that I’m awesome.
Only in this way will customers trust you and entrust their money to you for investment with confidence.
Even though Lin Fang Law Firm is the strongest financial institution in the whole of China, it still has to follow these rules.
There's nothing we can do about it, it's like this all over the world.
Especially Lin Fang Law Firm, this kind of market is oriented towards international finance.
We have many international clients, so we can only buy these internationally recognized valuable oil paintings to serve as our signature products.
"But this is too unsafe. Leaving it in the hallway like this, aren't you afraid of losing it?"
Hearing Fang Yuan's complaints, Lin Wanqin laughed even more.
"Hahahaha, do you think I'm stupid? Those that can be displayed are naturally high-tech replicas. I have hidden the real ones in our family's auction house and preserved them properly. Nowadays, those museums all do the same. If the real ones are taken out and placed outside, the light and radiation will cause them to deteriorate. Your mother is not stupid either. Those placed outside are naturally fake."
Fang Yuan was dumbfounded. He had never thought that rich people could be so shrewd.
Lin Wanqin put away her smile, and then looked at Fang Yuan seriously, and said slowly: "Tell me quickly, why did you come to see me today? I have a big market to operate later, and I don't have time to fool around with you."
Fang Yuan was speechless. His mother actually wanted to chase him away.
He is such a workaholic that he doesn't even want his own son.
That’s right. Fang Yuan has been here for so long and rarely sees Lin Wanqin at home.
Every time he returned home, Fang Yuan fell asleep.
Fang Datu also complained a lot, saying that his wife was not worthy of being called a wife.
Is there anyone whose wife stays in the office every day?
Fang Datu said this, but when facing Lin Wanqin, he didn't dare to say a word.
There's nothing you can do about it, that's how henpecked people are.
Fang Yuan was also afraid, so he started his topic directly.
"Well, Mom, am I your biological son?"
Lin Wanqin rolled her eyes, then laughed and scolded: "No, I picked you up from the garbage dump."
