Yang Jing won't have to worry too much about what happens next. With Zhao Meng around, Yang Jing believes that the adjustment of the Julong Fund can be completed smoothly.
In the few days before these executives arrived, Yang Jing explained the situation of the Julong Fund to Zhao Meng in detail, and this kind of adjustment was not a difficult task. Considering Zhao Meng's ability, if he couldn't even do this, then he would not be qualified to be the CEO.
These core executives will have to stay in Tianqu for one or two days. During this time, they will work with Zhao Meng to come up with a complete adjustment plan, which will eventually be submitted to Yang Jing for review.
Yang Zhengyu and Chen Zesheng, who received the news, led their subordinates to entertain these executives. Although the decision passed by the Standing Committee of the Tianqu Municipal Party Committee was still being reviewed by the higher-ups, both Yang Zhengyu and Chen Zesheng believed that it would definitely be approved.
After all, this is a good thing that has been invested in, and the main body of the investment is aimed at the basic livelihood of Tianqu. This is definitely a good thing, a huge good thing, and there is no reason to reject such investment.
And these core executives of the Julong Fund are the absolute God of Wealth. Whether Tianqu can truly take off in the future depends on these blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners, so it is definitely not a wrong approach to build relationships in advance at this time.
The executives of Julong Fund are all smart people. Those with lower EQ and IQ can't get such a position. They know that these officials are the parents of the small bosses' hometowns. It is good to have good relations with these officials in every way, so they are also willing to have good relations with Tianqu officials.
As for Yang Jing, he accompanied Henry and David to visit the Grand Canal Museum which was about to open. The Grand Canal Museum was scheduled to open on August 18th, more than ten days later. Now the interior has been almost tidied up and is ready to be opened to the public.
Henry and David were both the veteran core executives of the Dragon Fund. Yang Jing had changed his status now, so even though he was the boss, he had to show enough respect to the two. As for Henry and David, they were also very curious about what antiques and artworks Old Mike had tinkered with for the big boss over the years. They knew that all the treasures Old Mike had collected over the years had been transferred to the young boss, and they also knew that the young boss himself was a collector, so they also wanted to see the young boss's collection.
"Oh my god! Boss, your collection really opens my eyes!" Henry was already a well-known figure on Wall Street before joining the Dragon Fund. He also has a very high ability to identify antique artworks. Although he doesn't know much about oriental antique artworks, the collections in this museum include more than just oriental antique artworks.
David had no interest in this aspect before, but in the past few years since he retired, because he had a substantial fortune, he gradually gained some understanding of antique artworks. So like Henry, he was also shocked when he saw these treasures in front of him.
"Boss, this can't really be an authentic work of Michelangelo, right?" David and Henry asked this question almost in unison in the "Western Art Hall" on the second floor of the museum.
In front of them, a bronze statue of David, about one and a half meters tall, stood quietly in a bulletproof glass cabinet. Its slightly dark surface emitted a charming glow under the light.
"Yes, this is indeed the work of Michelangelo. This sculpture has been carbon-14 authenticated and confirmed to have been created in 1501, before Michelangelo took over from Agostino and began to create the marble "David". This bronze sculpture should be a model created by Michelangelo himself before he created the marble "David." Yang Jing explained.
Henry and David came to the nameplate in front of the bronze "David" and looked down. After reading it, they asked in surprise: "Boss, did you really find this bronze "David" from the shipwreck?"
"That's right. Michelangelo never married and had no children. It is said that when the marble David was completed, he had no right to own it because it was the property of the Florentine government, so he could only carefully keep the model, which is the bronze David. After Michelangelo's death in 1564, the model was kept by his students. Many years later, the model was passed to the Duke of Florence, Medici. This collector admired Michelangelo's sculpture art and works very much. After obtaining the model of David, he hid it in an unknown place in his home. Unfortunately, a fire swept through Florence in 1690, and the Duke's home was not spared. It was burned beyond recognition and was horrible. After the fire, the model disappeared."
Henry nodded and said, "I have heard of this rumor as well. But as far as I know, Frederick Hart, a scholar who studies the European Renaissance at the University of Virginia in the United States, said that the long-lost model of David has been found in Geneva. According to Hart, he found the model in Geneva in 1986. He found that it was very similar to the original statue of David, and the model also had a sling on its back, but the head and limbs were incomplete. And the industry also believes that the bronze model found by Hart is the model of David made by Michelangelo himself."
Yang Jing laughed and pointed at the silent bronze statue in front of him and said, "Henry, if you were to judge, which one do you think is more like Michelangelo's original work, this bronze statue or the incomplete bronze statue found by Hart? And you have just seen the explanation plaque. The treasure I found in the shipwreck is very likely the legendary treasure of the last Tsar. How could the power of the Romanov dynasty collect a fake?"
