160: Please face up to the influence of Huahu’s boss!
Fu Hong was very willing to meet the boss of Huahu.
But she has also gained a lot of experience in operating for Jason in the past two years. She knows that appropriate handling will not only not annoy the buyers, but will also make buyers feel that Jason's paintings are indeed worth collecting.
So Fu Hong did not agree to meet immediately, but asked the boss of Huahu which painting of Jason he wanted to buy.
"Our boss loves Jason's 'Black Sea' the most!"
"no."
Fu Hong flatly refused: "'Black Sea' is Jason's best work to date. Someone wanted to buy it at the first stop of the exhibition in Europe, but neither I nor Jason agreed. If your boss really only wants to buy 'Black Sea' and only wants to collect Jason's other paintings as a bonus, then I don't even think it's necessary to meet with him."
The woman on the other end of the phone clearly couldn't make the decision for the boss: "That's why I hope you can meet with us in person. These details can only be discussed by both parties sitting down. What do you think?"
Fu Hong was also secretly gauging how much the Huahu boss liked Jason's paintings.
If she behaves too coldly, will the boss of Huahu give up the idea of collecting it?
"I'm going to the airport soon."
Fu Hong probed, "Does your boss have time to go to the airport? We can chat over coffee before my plane takes off."
The woman was in a dilemma: "Our boss is not in Nancheng right now. If possible, could you stay in Nancheng for two more days? Of course, we can cover all the expenses incurred by your stay in Nancheng."
Fu Hong was disappointed, but pretended to be calm on the surface: "My schedule has been set long ago, and it won't cause a series of impacts if it's not necessary. It doesn't matter. If we can't meet this time, we can do it next time."
Fu Hong really doesn't want to stay in Nancheng.
Women cannot make decisions for the boss. Please wait a moment, Fu Hong, she needs to ask the boss for instructions.
After the woman hung up the phone, Fu Hong looked at the call records and smiled playfully.
Even if she wanted to stay, she would not stay just because of a few words from a secretary or assistant. Fu Hong was waiting for the boss of Huahu to contact her personally.
If the other party thinks Jason's paintings are worthwhile, they will contact her.
Fu Hong dragged her luggage downstairs. The designer and two staff members were waiting for her in the hotel lobby.
Seeing Fu Hong with her suitcase, the designer was surprised: "Ms. Fu, are you really leaving today? This morning, someone from Huahu asked us for your contact information. I heard that Mr. Jiang from Huahu was very interested in Jason's paintings. I thought Huahu had made an appointment with you."
Fu Hong has not returned to China for a long time and is not sensitive enough to the title of "General Jiang". The designer and Fu Hong are actually similar.
However, when people from Huahu asked for contact information, someone from the brand naturally gave the designer some basic information.
The designer immediately realized that this was a great opportunity. If it went well, not only would Jason's paintings become famous in China, but the new garments created by the designer using elements of Jason's paintings would also become popular!
So the designer came to the hotel early in the morning, not to send Fu Hong to the airport, but to facilitate a meeting between the two parties.
Seeing that Fu Hong wasn't as enthusiastic as expected, the designer quickly explained Huahu and "Mr. Jiang" to everyone: "Mr. Jiang's every move is closely watched. He said he wanted to buy Jason's paintings, and many Chinese netizens will be interested in Jason."
Unless Fu Hong didn't care about Jason's popularity here at all, she really shouldn't have rejected the olive branch extended by Hua Hu.
This is not Europe, and it is very difficult to use art exhibitions to expand Jason's fame.
Having ten local painters jointly recommend Jason wouldn't be as effective as having a famous and wealthy boss buy a few of his paintings. Bosses with purchasing power don't buy into the painters' recommendations. A billionaire looks at how a billionaire spends, and a billionaire aspires to live the life of a billionaire... If you were to rank bosses by their wealth, Mr. Jiang would already be at the top of the list in South City. Add to that the buzz he generates, and his influence truly radiates throughout the internet, right?
Fu Hong regretted it after hearing this.
She underestimated "General Jiang's" wealth and influence.
She shouldn't have taken Joe's just now.
Whether or not the paintings can be sold is secondary. If Jason misses this opportunity and wants to make a splash in China, the only way is to arrange for Jason's paintings to be auctioned - let an unknown buyer buy Jason's paintings. Everyone in the industry knows what's going on. How can the effect be as good as if Jason's paintings were bought at a high price by the boss of Huahu?
Fu Hong checked her phone. The woman who had just said she was going to ask the boss for instructions hadn't called back. Fu Hong had no way out, so she bit the bullet and thanked the designer for his kindness. "Someone from Huahu contacted me, but my schedule and Mr. Jiang's are a bit conflicting, so we can only talk next time we have the chance."
The designer hesitated to speak.
Painters can be aloof, no, painters must be aloof, that's why they need to hire agents to help them manage the transactions of their works.
If a painter is noble, his works can be sold at a higher price.
The agent is also arrogant, is he going to force the painter to starve?!
The designer and Fu Hong were not very familiar with each other. When Fu Hong was silent, she had a kind of aloof temperament, and the designer was not in a position to persuade her too much.
Along the way, Fu Hong was looking at her phone intermittently.
The phone never rang.
Get off at the airport and check in your luggage.
The brand staff helped Fu Hong put her luggage up, and then Fu Hong's phone rang.
It’s the same number as before.
Fu Hong breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, Fu Hong did not say such a drastic thing. After the other party's repeated requests, Fu Hong agreed to postpone her departure from Nancheng for two days, and she did not need Huahu to reimburse the expenses of staying in Nancheng.
Although Fu Hong has lived abroad for a period of time, his thinking is still that of China. He knows very well that one should be grateful to the person who has helped him, and is unwilling to enjoy the hospitality paid for by Hua Hu.
On the other end of the phone, the woman thanked Fu Hong profusely.
"Thank you for your understanding!"
…
"You want me to go back to South City in two days?"
Jiang Zhiyan complained on the other end of the phone: "I only celebrate Spring Festival once a year. Gu Bapi, can't you be more understanding and considerate of me?"
Gu Jun obviously would not sympathize with Jiang Zhiyan.
How ironic! Fu Hong didn't recognize Gu Jun when she saw him. Not only did she turn around and leave, she also hid in the hotel and refused to come out, for fear of being pestered by Gu Jun.
However, as long as Gu Jun told Fu Hong that the boss of Huahu wanted to buy Jason's paintings, Fu Hong postponed her departure from Nancheng.
Fu Hong didn't know that the so-called boss of Huahu was her abandoned eldest son, and Gu Jun didn't intend to let her know, so Jiang Zhiyan needed to take the blame.
Jiang Zhiyan was baffled. "Why should I buy Jason's paintings? I think his paintings are just average!"
There was a reason why Jiang Zhiyan was able to date Li Lanyi. Both of them were insensitive to Jason's paintings. Others felt depressed after watching "Black Sea", but they didn't.
Li Lanyi knows nothing about painting.
As for Jiang Zhiyan, apart from feeling some frustration with Tangtang, his smooth life has nothing to do with "depression"!
Gu Jun was always good at getting to the point. "Have you seen Jason's paintings?"
Jiang Zhiyan hesitated on the phone.
Gu Jun pointed the finger at him, "Because Tangtang went to the press conference, you also watched the live broadcast, right?"
“I got it by accident.”
Jiang Zhiyan was stubborn.
Gu Jun didn't want to beat around the bush with Jiang Zhiyan. Xu Yao was Gu Jun's family member, and Jiang Zhiyan was a friend Gu Jun trusted, so he directly told him Fu Hong's identity.
On the other end of the phone, Jiang Zhiyan was stunned: "That painter Jason is your brother, and his agent is your mother? Just wait, I'll have someone book a ticket back to South City right away!"
