After listening to Qu Guanwen, Fu Song felt a little embarrassed: "Sir, Professor Ran is inside, you can go directly to him."
Qu Guanwen was stunned: "Aren't you his family member?"
Fu Song quickly waved his hands: "Don't say anything nonsense, I came here to become your disciple, but I failed."
Qu Guanwen's body swayed, and he felt very depressed at the same time.
You know, he had been brewing his emotions for a long time before coming in, but it was all in vain.
After glaring at Fu Song fiercely, Qu Guanwen took a deep breath and glanced around the living room, his eyes fixed on Ran Wennian: "Hello, Professor Ran, I..."
Seeing that he was being stared at for no reason, Fu Song was a little speechless.
Of course he could guess what Qu Guanwen was thinking, but you expressed your feelings wrongly, can you blame me?
opposite.
After listening to Qu Guanwen's narration, Ran Wennian shook his head and said, "Mr. Qu, I'm sorry, I'm not a professional appraiser and I'm not qualified to appraise calligraphy and paintings."
"Ah?" Qu Guanwen was stunned. "But didn't you write a calligraphy for Cai Wei'er's painting?"
Caiweier, whom Qu Guanwen mentioned, is a beautiful painter in the painting circle and is sought after by many calligraphy and painting collectors.
Whenever her works are put on auction, they will be bought out immediately. The cheapest one starts at 50,000, and it is common to sell them for 200,000 or 300,000.
However, what Caiweier is most talked about is not her painting skills, but an interaction with Ran Wennian.
At that time, Caiwei was traveling in Changbai Mountain and happened to encounter heavy snow.
Standing on the top of Changbai Mountain, looking at the spectacular sight of thousands of miles of white in front of her, she felt something in her heart.
So Caiweier returned to the hotel and spent seven days sketching a picture of the snowy mountains in the north.
It happened that Ran Wennian was also in Changbai Mountain at that time. When he saw Cai Weier's paintings, he was immediately stunned by them.
After a long chat, Caiweier also admired Ran Wennian's knowledge very much, so she sincerely invited him to write an inscription for her painting.
Ran Wennian did not refuse.
He started practicing calligraphy at the age of seven and has continued to do so for more than forty years. His attainments are now comparable to any other calligraphy masters.
After pondering for a moment, Ran Wennian recalled the generosity and heroism of the great man when he overlooked the world from the northwestern plateau and composed "沁园春·雪". He wrote the first half of the poem:
"The scenery of the north is covered with ice for thousands of miles and snow for thousands of miles.
Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, there is only wilderness, and the mighty rivers have lost their roar.
The silver snakes dance on the mountains and the wax elephants gallop on the plains, trying to compete with the sky for height.
It must be a sunny day to see the red dress and white snow, which is particularly enchanting. "
The handwriting is elegant and free-flowing, and every stroke is natural and seamless, perfectly blending poetry and painting together.
The more Caiwei looked at it, the more she liked it. She simply named this painting "沁园春·雪" and kept it as a personal collection.
Later, due to some special reasons, this painting was sent to the largest auction house in Hong Kong for auction.
As a result, it was snatched up by many people and finally sold at a high price of 2.8 million.
As soon as this incident happened, it instantly caused a sensation in the entire collecting circle.
You have to know that although Caiwei'er is a little famous, she is only a little famous.
Most of her paintings are priced between 200,000 and 300,000 yuan, and the most expensive one was sold for only 470,000 yuan, and that was because it was a charity gala.
Now, it has increased tenfold, and Caiwei'er's net worth has reached a new level.
Hearing Qu Guanwen say this, Ran Wennian felt helpless.
I wrote the inscription for Caiwei'er's painting just because I felt like it.
Although my handwriting is great, I don’t sell it!
Shaking his head, Ran Wennian said, "Mr. Qu, you must have misunderstood. I still have some things to do. Please go back!"
Seeing Ran Wennian directly ordering them to leave, Qu Guanwen suddenly became anxious.
He just said that his pharmaceutical company had some minor financial problems, which was just a euphemism.
In fact, if Jiuzhou Pharmaceutical cannot raise five million within half a month, there will be only one outcome: bankruptcy and liquidation.
If that were to happen, the career he had worked so hard for half his life would be completely ruined.
"Professor Ran, I know you don't help others easily, but I really have no choice.
How about this, if you agree to take a look, I'll pay 300,000, and I'll increase my share of the auction to 10%?"
Ran Wennian was helpless: "Mr. Qu, it's really not about the money. I'm really not qualified to do appraisals for people."
"Professor Ran..."
After being rejected again, Qu Guanwen still did not give up. He kept trying to persuade her in various ways.
But no matter what he said, the other party remained unmoved.
Ran Wennian insisted on his principles, but Wang Fugui, who was standing next to him, felt his heart beating faster.
Just helping to authenticate a fake gets you 300,000 yuan? And you get a share of the auction?
You have to know that even if he works hard in the "Antique Jewelry Store" for a year, he may not be able to earn 300,000.
"Ahem, Mr. Qu, how about I help you authenticate your calligraphy and paintings?" Wang Fugui smiled like a kind old Maitreya.
Qu Guanwen looked at him suspiciously: "Who are you?"
Wang Fugui hurriedly said: "Oh, my name is Wang Fugui, I am the owner of the 'Antique Jewelry Store' and a senior appraiser.
I have been in this profession for 50 years and have issued 319 appraisal certificates for calligraphy and painting alone, and countless others."
Wang Fugui said this with great confidence, as this was an achievement he was proud of.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Qu Guanwen shook his head: "Antique jewelry store? Never heard of it."
Then he said to Ran Wennian again: "Professor Ran, please help me..."
Wang Fugui: “…”
Seeing Qu Guanwen procrastinating endlessly, Ran Xingyue next to him finally couldn't help but said:
"Hey, why are you like this?
My dad said he won’t help you with the appraisal, and he definitely won’t help you with the appraisal.
So please leave immediately or I will call the police."
Ran Xingyue was already in a very bad mood when she knew that the medal she had won with great difficulty was of poor quality.
