Chapter 578 Controversy over cultural relics 1
Chapter 578 The dispute over cultural relics 1
Fan Qiangqiang wore the same sunglasses as Will Smith in the movie Men in Black, covering almost half of his face, but he was not afraid of being spotted by Wu Jiajia, Chen Shuyan, and Min Hui.
Sure enough, when Princess Alice excitedly brought two records of Blue Fantasy 1 and 2 to Wu Jiajia and others for autographs, Wu Jiajia and others did not realize that the man standing behind the British princess was their benefactor.
On the stage, people began to show off their singing skills. They were all British singers, not very famous. Some people listened, but most people ignored them and continued chatting where they would not be disturbed. Some were discussing today.
Some of the auction items in the evening were discussing the bizarre air crash some time ago, while others were discussing the three Chinese players of the NBA Rockets.
Fan Jianqiang's vision and hearing were enhanced, and he listened with gusto. From time to time, he chatted with the beauties around him.
After a while, the little American rock queen Janet came on stage to sing, with a bright rhythm, a strong sense of music, and a powerful melody, which attracted many guests.
Soon, it was the turn of the British prince of love songs, Sam. As expected, this handsome guy had a lot of talent, and his singing voice and vocal range were all excellent, attracting more and more guests to gather around and applaud Sam.
Wu Jiajia and the others also entered the dressing room at this time, preparing to sing on stage.
Korean oriental fairy tales were sung first. It seemed that the British were not interested in Koreans. Perhaps the British were only interested in Uncle Psy. After the oriental fairy tales sang and danced vigorously, there was sparse applause, and many guests even watched.
Not even a single glance showed any interest.
It wasn't until the cocktail party was about to end and the auction started in half an hour that the Blue Angel came on stage.
The three women all came on stage wearing white evening gowns that looked like wedding dresses. Amidst the elegant and exotic music, the three women danced like elves, stretching their graceful bodies, with graceful and graceful girl-like curves.
The guests were all amazed.
It’s unimaginable that three middle-aged girls who were all in their thirties would be so transformed!
The reason why the Stevenson family spent more than one and a half times the price of Korean Oriental Fairy Tales to invite the Blue Angels was originally mainly because of the Blue Angels' current popularity around the world, and the fact that their three rejuvenation miracles in the history of "plastic surgery"
Comes with a sensational effect.
But I didn't expect that when the music was playing, the three women's special singing style seemed to be murmuring in sleep, making this song more like a baptism and purification of the soul in the mortal world. Everyone was moved by this heavenly sound.
The entire venue was silent.
Not to mention ordinary guests, even singers such as Sam, Janet, Oriental Fairy Tales, etc. were all attracted involuntarily. Everyone held their breath and listened quietly until the end of the song.
Most people didn't react and were still immersed in the beautiful and pure singing.
I don’t know who was the first to applaud, and then the applause sounded continuously.
The members of Oriental Fairy Tale were all waking up from a dream, looking at the Blue Angel members on the stage with envy and jealousy.
Suddenly someone shouted loudly: "One more song!"
This proposal immediately gained the support of many people. The host originally arranged for each guest singer to sing only one song. This situation was unexpected. One million euros is enough to sing one song.
Price, if you want to sing another song, how much extra should you pay? The host was stunned.
Wu Jiajia picked up the microphone and expressed her gratitude to the guests. Her English was not very authentic, but it was not vulgar.
"Thank you for your love. If you don't mind it, I would like to invite a guest to sing together." When Wu Jiajia said this, her eyes turned to Fan who was standing between Princess Alice and Princess Lidia.
strong!
Fan Jianqiang was startled, and he sighed. Wearing such wide sunglasses, was he still recognized by that girl? Could it be that my handsomeness has reached the point where he stands out from the crowd no matter how he conceals it?
Wu Jiajia's face was filled with smiles, and Min Hui and Chen Shuyan also had faint warm smiles. The three women looked in the same direction, so everyone in the room noticed.
I fainted, it turned out that they had already discovered it! They had been pretending for so long!
Alice looked at Fan Jianqiang in surprise and whispered: "Lily is looking at you, Fan, can you sing?"
Fan Jianqiang smiled bitterly: "My singing skills are very average, I don't know why they want to tease me."
Alice pursed her lips and smiled: "Maybe they like you, a handsome guy?"
Fan Jianqiang turned and glanced at Eva. Eva's expression was also half-smiling, which was meaningful.
Fan Jianqiang was about to explain to Eva. At this time, many guests applauded and encouraged Fan Jianqiang to come on stage.
Eva smiled and said: "It's such a rare opportunity to sing a song with Blue Angel. You go ahead, I'm not jealous."
Fan Qiangqiang smiled, came closer, and whispered in Eva's ear: "Then if I sing well later, you will reward me later, the kind of treatment you get in All the Way to the West."
Eva's pretty face suddenly turned bright red and she was so embarrassed.
Fan Jianqiang walked onto the stage amidst applause.
The three women's eyes were sparkling, and their eyes were burning with joy, but they didn't say anything.
Wu Jiajia took the microphone and asked: "Has this gentleman heard of our songs?"
Min Hui smiled and handed the microphone to Fan Jianqiang.
Fan Jianqiang said: "I've heard of it."
Wu Jiajia asked again: "Which song does this gentleman like?"
"Just this one."
…
On such an occasion, where all the British dignitaries were present, they were able to interact with the guests, which was unexpected by the host and organizer, which also shows the popularity of the Blue Angel.
Fan Jianqiang's performance method is very different from just now. Before, it was humming, with music as the main part and the lyrics as embellishment. But this time, Fan Qianqiang did the opposite, with music as the supplement and lyrics as the main part. The music is exactly the same, but the lyrics are just embellishment.
It's a completely different style.
When Fan Jianqiang opened his mouth, all doubts disappeared!
It was said to be a chorus, but Wu Jiajia was just cooperating, and the lead singer was Fan Jianqiang.
A piece of music that was originally elegant and soothing. Who knew that Fan Qiangqiang deliberately made things worse and added skills from the Temple Troubadour to the song? Sadness!
Every guest was moved, and sadness spread.
When the song ended, everyone seemed to be reminded of sad past events, which resonated with each other and made everyone's eyes wet.
The applause was like thunder! Even warmer than the applause the Blue Angel got just now!
The Blue Angels are originally professional singers, so they should sing well, but Fan Qianqiang is a complete layman, and yet he can sing so well!
Everyone was shocked by Fan Jianqiang’s singing!
The members of Oriental Fairy Tale were all gloating about their misfortune. Blue Angel invited people to sing a chorus, but they sang better than them. Isn't that embarrassing?
However, Wu Jiajia, Min Hui and Chen Shuyan also had red eyes at this time, and they were obviously moved by this song.
Fan Qiangqiang left the stage as soon as he finished singing. He regretted a little. He was too naughty, making the women at the scene look like they were looking at their lovers, while the men looked like gays.
Sure enough, after a while, the manager of Oriental Fairy Tale came over to chat and asked Fan Qianqiang if he was interested in going to South Korea to develop. Listening to his eloquent words, it seemed that he planned to let Fan Jianqiang join the Oriental Fairy Tale group as the lead singer.
Damn it, if it weren’t for the collection mission, Uncle Fan would really want to make money from Koreans. Uncle Psy, Lee Min Ho, and Kim Soo Hyun can’t always come to China to make money!
Fan Jianqiang did not give the manager any face and refused bluntly.
After a while, Wu Jiajia's phone call came in.
Fan Qiangqiang said hello to Alice and the others, and walked to a less crowded place to answer the call.
"Jiajia, you guys are pretty good, can you recognize them like this?"
"Mr. Fan, we are staying at the Hilton Hotel and will stay here until tomorrow afternoon before returning to China. Huihui and Yanyan would like to ask you to come to our place after the auction ends in the evening. We have a lot to talk to Mr. Fan.
Said. Our room number is 1806."
"Haha, you don't need to go to the hotel. I'll invite you to the Windsor Palace as guests. There are plenty of rooms. Princess Alice is your fan!"
"By the way, how come Mr. Fan is with the British princess?"
"You guys come here tonight. If you want to elaborate more, it's not convenient to talk here. I'll send someone to pick you up at the hotel then."
…
The auction has begun. At this time, everyone has a detailed album of most of the items to be auctioned tonight. They are mainly luxury goods such as jewelry and gems, but there are also a few cultural relics from China!
Among them, a double-eared Hetian jade vase from the Ming Dynasty, the starting price is one million euros, a dragon head inkstone from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the starting price is 1.5 million euros, and a miniature jade Buddha sculpture from Dunhuang, the starting price
The price is 700,000 euros, and a Han Dynasty pottery pot, the starting price is 1.8 million euros.
This is just the starting price!
This kind of price is simply terrifying!
Now the international art market is basically in a "sinking" phenomenon, which means that the really good things have been collected, and there are basically no particularly valuable things on the market. Collectors all over the world are in a state of "sinking".
A kind of "treasure hunt" state.
As for China's cultural relics and national treasures, it has been a long-standing sentiment of the Chinese people to let these national treasures that have been lost overseas return home. As the country becomes increasingly powerful, many collection institutions and individuals purchase lost cultural relics of the motherland through the international cultural relics market, especially personal cultural relics.
Many patriotic Chinese overseas regard this as a lifelong goal.
Fan Jianqiang is undoubtedly a patriotic person. When he didn't have the ability before, he could only do it in his head. Now that he has the ability, he will naturally not miss it.
Today Mosby Auction House put up four pieces of Chinese cultural relics for auction! When Fan Jianqiang looked at the album, he had already regarded them as something he was determined to get!
There are many items in the auction today, including cultural relics and treasures from other countries, but Fan Jianqiang is not interested in any of them!
He went there just for those four cultural relics. There were 113 million euros in his account and another 2.5 billion Chinese coins.
There is no problem at all in buying these four Chinese cultural relics.
Chapter completed!
