Rebirth

"John, what do you think?" Standing in the collection room on the first basement of Century Manor, Zhou Jiana smiled and said to Li Feng.

At this time, it was already 2 days later, Zhou Jiana, Li Feng’s beauty, suddenly broke into the villa with someone, and then a group of art and some staff went into and out of the villa, putting pieces of valuable artworks and antique cultural relics. Move into the villa.

Naturally, Zhou Jiana’s behavior attracted the attention of the people in the villa. As a result, including Li Feng and several elderly people in his family, they all came to Li Feng’s basement collection room to see the dazzling art works and so on. stand up.

"Well, dear Miss Zhou Jiana, I really don't understand this. If you are a big man, please spare me and introduce me." Li Feng smiled and interrupted.

"Huh..., didn't I give you so many books about these artworks? Haven't you read them?"

"I watched it, and I watched a lot. If you ask me to recite, I can recite some of them, but if you want me to look at their works directly and say one, two, three, then it will be troublesome. Not so capable yet."

"Hehe...chuckle..." Wang Siqing couldn't help but smile when Li Feng was so funny.

...

"Huh..., listen well, these are two works of the representative painting school of the American abstractionist Jackson Pollock's "Drip Painting" and "Black Painting" style works. It took me a lot of thought to find them. It cost more than 10 million dollars.

Look at this one. It is one of the masterpieces of the American master of abstraction, "White Center-Yellow, Pink and Lavender on Rose Red", one of the masterpieces of the American master of abstraction.

However, Mark Rothko's works began to become popular in the 1990s, and most of them were in the range of one million to ten million. Up to now, no works have exceeded ten million.

However, neither I nor my father believe that Mark Rothko's works have great potential for appreciation in the future. Therefore, this time I bought 6 sets of his works at a time, and the total call cost was 30 million.

This is a painting by Jasper Jones, the representative painter of the modern American Empire. Well, this painter is still alive. Therefore, his works are much lower in comparison. I have acquired 23 sets of his works, including 19 Two paintings and four sculptures.

It ranges from 100,000, hundreds of thousands to millions, tens of millions.Among them, his "White Flag" work was the most expensive, costing 15 million. It is said that Metropolis also wanted to collect it, but I was the first to get it.

The last one is Wilhelm de Kooning, the master just passed away in March, and his works have appreciated a lot recently.Well, anyway, the master has passed away, and his works will always appreciate for a while."

Perhaps seeing the special smiles of Li Feng, Wang Siqing and others, Zhou Jiana reluctantly explained it, which immediately caused everyone to laugh.

...

"Pink Angel, Woman No. 6, and Woman and Bicycle. These three works were made by me through competition with museums and David Geffen and others. I spent more than 50 million yuan, but I think they are worth it. The work is considered his masterpiece, and has great potential for appreciation in the future."

Zhou Jiana said excitedly again. Obviously, Zhou Jiana was happy with the job Li Feng arranged for her.

"Also, there are many paintings, bronzes, porcelains, etc. belonging to Huaxia. John, didn't you say that you are going to send them to the courtyard of Huaxia Imperial Capital in batches for collection? I specially prepared some more.

However, Europe and the United States do not have enough ability to appreciate China’s cultural relics, antiques and artworks. Generally speaking, compared to European and American artworks, they are really much cheaper. Very few of them exceed one million US dollars. These are, for example, the official kilns of Song porcelain which were passed down as classics in China."Finally, Zhou Jiana pointed to a large number of Chinese art and cultural relics.

Looking at the numerous Chinese porcelains, bronzes, ancient paintings, etc. that were densely visited there, Li Feng was speechless. He looked at nearly a hundred works, including classic porcelains of the Qing Dynasty and famous Song porcelains, which cost less than 30 million US dollars. .

Li Feng couldn't help screaming in his heart at this time. It's so cheap. If these works are in China in the future, they will not cost millions or even hundreds of millions. In fact, buying these works of art now is really profitable.

...

Although several elderly people in the family knew that Li Feng asked Zhou Jiana to purchase artworks, they were still surprised to see so many artworks in the collection room, especially after they understood its value.

"Originally, I wanted to collect some Jeff Koons' works, but I heard that there will be a lot of Jeff Koons' works in our Malibu Manor in the future. I haven't contacted them for the time being." Seeing everyone's surprise , Zhou Jiana said proudly again.

"Jeff Koons?" Li Feng asked suspiciously.

"Why, John, don’t you know that I met Pei and I. I. talked about some design concepts and ideas in the manor. At that time, whether it’s sculptures, artworks, etc., Pei will contact Jeff Koons , Will make several design works in our gardens and villas.” Seeing Li Feng's puzzled expression, Zhou Jiana asked.

"Oh, I really don't know this. I just told Father Bei about the requirements of my manor. As for the design, it hasn't started anyway. After the design is completed, we can verify it again."

Everyone thought that Li Feng didn't know Jeff Koons and was wondering. In fact, Li Feng was surprised. To be honest, Li Feng didn't know much about the legendary artist.

A petty person in the previous life, at most I have heard of such familiar names as Van Gogh, Picasso, Leonardo da Vinci, Mona Lisa, etc. As for the rest of the more unusual people, few Li Feng remembers.

But for Jeff Koons, he has heard of it in his previous life.

...

The main reason is that this artist's fortune began in the new century, and he himself is relatively young, and his age is estimated to be around 40, which is really not that old. Therefore, in the future, he will be able to hear from many media and the Internet. Through his news.

As for the specifics of his works, Li Feng is actually not clear, but he has heard a piece of news about him in his previous life. It seems that his works rarely exceed 300,000 before 2000.

However, when Li Feng was reborn in his previous life, his works would easily be millions or even tens of millions, tens of millions, and the appreciation was too fast.The petty people in the past life are always full of illusions about money, so there are really a few works still in his memory.

One of them seems to be about Michael Jackson, and the other is about dogs. It seems that the value of future generations has exceeded tens of millions or even tens of millions.Bitcoin is the one about Michael Jackson, which is more widely known. After all, it has been tainted by the popular king.In his previous life, Li Feng also saw news about the artist because of the news about Michael, the king of pop.

"Jana, let's go, this Jeff Koons, I seem to have heard, is he mainly designed works based on those animals, cartoon characters, etc.?" Li Feng wanted to confirm again.

"John, have you heard of him?" Zhou Jiana couldn't help asking when hearing Li Feng's words.

...

"Hehe, I have always heard that your father has a lot of works by painters from the United States in his collection, and it is said that these works were painted before these painters were not successful.

I heard that many painters ate in your restaurant at the time, and they didn’t have the money to pay for the meal, but your father asked them to mortgage the meal with their works, right?

This is really the most expensive meal, Jana, the artists that your father met, have you troubled your father?

Well, since I heard about your father’s rumors, I have also tried to understand the young artists of the American Emperor today, and I also wonder if I can invest in others when they were in decline in the early days.

Jeff Koons has heard of this. Since you and Master Pei both approve of his works, then you should buy some of his works.I hope you can buy some of his masterpieces. I will treat it as an investment. Anyway, his works are not worth money. If he succeeds in the future, I will make a profit."

Naturally, Li Feng could not tell people that I had heard of this great man in my previous life, so I took his father as an example to illustrate that he wanted to invest in Jeff Koons' works.

Well, after listening to Li Feng's explanation, especially for his father's evaluation, Zhou Jiana gave Li Feng a roll of eyes.

......

Looking at the gradually enriched art collection room, Li Feng is full of contentment. Although it is expensive, in Li Feng's view, it is still very worthwhile.
