Chapter 2012: Everything needs packaging

"You're too polite. Your paintings are hard to find. I shouldn't accept them. After all, we are all relatives. What's it like to accept your things?"

As soon as Huo Jinzhi's words fell, Father Bai said, "Why is it ridiculous? I will accept what you gave me, and I have to accept what I gave you. It's a courtesy!"

"I really accepted these two paintings with the cheek, and it's a coincidence. A few days ago, my wife and brother-in-law mentioned my uncle to me. He planned to collect his uncle's paintings, but they couldn't buy them in the market. He also said that he would recommend my wife and brother-in-law to my uncle, and it just so happened that your uncle sent me a painting."

One of Huo Jin's Zhang Qiaozui can say more than a matchmaker's mouth. Father Bai is very happy when he hears it. Although he is not a person with excessive vanity, he is still very happy to be touted so much.

He asked curiously, "Your wife and brother-in-law's surname? I still know a few people in the Songcheng collection world."

"The famous Tang Aiguo prefers to collect oil paintings. Has uncle heard of him?"

Father Bai was taken aback, and his heart was shocked. Of course, he had heard of Tang Aiguo's name. This boss Tang is famous in the collection world, not to mention Songcheng, even in the country.

It is said that Boss Tang's most famous collection is the posthumous work of a famous European painter, worth tens of millions of dollars, while the one in the Paris museum is a fake, and the original work is in the hands of Tang Aiguo.

"It turns out that Boss Tang is your wife and brother-in-law, but I have really admired the name for a long time." Father Bai respected a lot.

Tang Aiguo owns a gallery in Songcheng, which is well-known internationally. It is the dream of all painters to hold an exhibition there. Of course, Father Bai also wanted to hold an exhibition there, but he never won it.

Now he suddenly has confidence, they are all relatives, no matter what, he has to give some face, right?

Huo Jinzhi was secretly amusing, he was very aware of Father Bai's careful thinking, except that fame is fortune, or both fame and fortune.

"My uncle-in-law is actually a blind collector, but he really likes to paint, so he has opened a gallery himself, and he often brings some young painters and organizes an art exhibition or something. Yesterday, I chatted with my uncle-in-law about my uncle. My brother-in-law said that he would like to invite your uncle to the gallery to hold a painting exhibition, but I wonder if my uncle can appreciate it?"

Huo Jinzhi was too lazy to go around in circles, and said directly that they were already relatives, so of course he didn't mind helping them.

Father Bai's reputation in the painting world is not bad, but it's still not enough. Yes, who knows you?

"It's my honor to go to Boss Tang's gallery to hold an art exhibition. How could I not be willing? I don't know when? What do I need to prepare?" Father Bai was so overjoyed that he couldn't hold his reserved expression, and the corners of his eyes were laughing. All wrinkled.

He dreams of going to Boss Tang's gallery to hold an art exhibition. In fact, that gallery is not that tall. He has held art exhibitions in other galleries, but one advantage of Tang Aiguo's gallery is that Tang Aiguo is good at publicity and packaging.

There are many painters who were not well known before. After holding an exhibition in Tang Aiguo's gallery, they were packaged and promoted by Tang Aiguo's team. Within a few years, they became famous painters, appeared on TV shows, and went to university to give lectures. All of a sudden, the price was sky high, and he became a hot big painter.

It's obvious that those people's paintings are actually like that. Father Bai doesn't look down on them, but after being packaged, the paintings are several times more expensive than his own. He is very jealous and a little unwilling.
