Chinese paintings are still very popular internationally, but modern sculptures have never been auctioned at a high price.
Moreover, Wuhai is a superstar in the art world, and Yuan Zhou is also a superstar in the culinary circle. The two of them add up to at least 2.5 points.
Then, the netizens found out that a piece of news had appeared on the hot search list, directly suppressing the relationship of celebrities or the promotion of new films.
"The sculptures of the 108 generals of the Water Margin and the magnificent Water Margin are re-creations of China's four masterpieces. Chinese culture and the four masterpieces are the culture engraved in our hearts. It is reported that the two sculptures were bought by a French telecommunications oligarch for more than 500 million RMB. This represents the mainstream culture of our country and is sought after by the West. It has created a peak in art auctions in recent years. Wuhai, Eaves Wu, deserves to be the leader of China's art world. Yuan Zhou, the king of China's cooking, deserves to be the leader of China's cooking world. "
The above article is full of positive energy, and it should be official. That's right, this news appeared in the People's Daily.
Speaking of which, Wuhai and Yuan Zhou have grown up together. Yuan Zhou's fame almost started from zero, while Wuhai was just the leader of the younger generation of artists. But his works directly removed the words "younger generation".
Eaves Wu and Wuhai are the two titles that Yuan Zhou and Wuhai earned through their own efforts. But now, it appears in the official report without quotation marks. It must be the official stamp of approval.
Thinking about it carefully, is it strange to add "Yuan Biao" to the cooking evaluation?
"The painting of immortals and the sculpture of immortals. Wu Hai and Yuan Zhou, the two most outstanding youths of our country, cooperated for the first time and created an astonishing transaction price of 67.728 million Euros. Who says there are no outstanding youths of China?" — Jinling Daily
This news is not only popular in China, because such a high transaction price is a big event in the world of art.
Many people say that art should not be related to money, but in fact, money is a good measure of the value of art.
For example, you can't understand the artistic value of Van Gogh's "Starry Moonlit Night", but you can tell that this painting is worth hundreds of millions. You still couldn't understand it, but you had to say that it was awesome because it was valuable.
The more influential newspapers in Italy, Corriere.De la Sera, Libero, and La Repubblica, were the first to report. Then, the mainstream international media followed suit. Britain's Sun, Times Daily, Japan's Yomiuri Shimbun, Germany's Bild, and the United States' USA Today followed suit.
Yuan Zhou appeared in newspapers all over the world as a non-chef.
How could this kind of thing be possible without the idiotic netizens? The netizens' replies were delightful, and the attention was very high.
Brother Nine: [Although I know that Boss Yuan is good at stirring up trouble, killing people … Ah, isn't it not good to make it so big? Now the whole world knows. ]
Uncle Turtle: Did you guys see what the news said? I only saw a string of numbers, 67,728,000 euros. How much is that? Wake me up! Is it too late to learn painting and carving now?! ]
Addicted to Reading Fake Paintings: I know that Wuhai's paintings are very valuable, but Yuan Zhou?? If I remember correctly, Yuan Zhou should be a chef!! ]
Klmok: Nonsense. Boss Yuan is obviously an ice sculptor. I even went to see the ice sculptures in Bingcheng. ]
At first, there was still a bit of encouragement from Zheng Jiawei, but later on, it was completely unrestrained. The popularity was rising rapidly.
As the person involved, Yuan Zhou still didn't know. Don't think it was unbelievable, because Yuan Zhou usually only played with his phone at night. Most of the time, he was thinking about cooking.
Moreover, he was very busy after going to Pi County today, so it was normal that he didn't receive any news.
Now, he felt that everything spread fast because he always paid attention to the Internet.
If he didn't go online for more than ten days, let's see if news could still spread fast.
Fortunately, as soon as Yuan Zhou returned to Taoxi Road and made himself a pot of tea, Zhou Xi, who rushed over from the hospital on horseback, arrived.
"Boss Yuan, congratulations. This is really awesome." Although Zhou Xi looked a little tired, he was still in high spirits.
This guy had been chatting with Wu Hai for two whole hours in the hospital, yet he was still chatting with Wu Hai. If it wasn't for Zheng Jiawei keeping a close eye on the time and knowing that Wu Hai was going to set off at the right time, when Wu Hai was free, the two of them would probably continue chatting until dawn. One ought to know that the auction would only last for two and a half hours at most.
"Thank you." Yuan Zhou didn't react for a moment, thinking that the news of recruiting registered disciples had been spread.
After all, Yuan Zhou didn't expect that he could sell for so much money, so he basically didn't pay attention to it later. If he knew, he would definitely stare at it every day … Cough cough. As everyone knew, Yuan Zhou wasn't a person who loved money.
"This time, Boss Yuan's carving and the painting of Eaves Wu can be sold at such a high price, which proves that both of your skills have reached the peak. Brother Jiawei asked me to tell Boss Yuan about last night's auction in detail." Zhou Xi was full of excitement.
"Painting and carving?" Only then did Yuan Zhou realize it.
He recalled that there was such a thing under Zheng Jiawei's suggestion.
Yuan Zhou got a steady sum of money and sipped a mouthful of tea. Wuhai's painting was indeed very valuable, but how much could a carving be sold for? Therefore, he said calmly, "Well, how's the situation?"
"The specific situation is like this. Originally, Eaves Wu and Brother Jiawei planned to go there in person, but the conditions didn't allow it, so I went to the auction site. Boss Yuan's carving and Eaves Wu's painting were auctioned at Christie Auction House in Italy. It was specially noted that they were auctioned as the finale goods. I saw it with my own eyes last night. The collectors and businessmen really fought fiercely and fought to be the first. It was an unprecedentedly grand occasion."
Zhou Xi learned idioms well. "The final transaction price was 67.728 million Euros, which created the highest transaction in recent years. It's simply a milestone in the modern art of China. Boss Yuan, you and Eaves Wu are both milestone figures!" Zhou Xi said excitedly. Those who didn't know might even think that his painting was being auctioned.
"Cough cough cough."
Yuan Zhou almost spat out the tea in his mouth, but as he paid attention to his image, he forcefully swallowed it back. Therefore, he choked.
"How much?" Yuan Zhou forced himself to calm down. He sipped another mouthful of tea slowly and asked softly, "The wind was a little strong just now. I didn't hear it clearly."
"The hammer price is 60 million Euros. Plus the commission, it's 67.728 million Euros." Zhou Xi repeated what he had said just now.
Wuhai's painting was very valuable. The magnificent Water Margin was the representative work of Wu Shou. Therefore, according to its previous value and the rising market price, it was normal for it to be auctioned at 30 to 40 million USD.
But obviously, a large part of the 60 million Euros belonged to the carving.
Yuan Zhou was a little dumbfounded.
