“The second task is to seize the time to publish the first issue and warm up the ‘European Touring Exhibition of Traditional Chinese Arts and Crafts’ in China.

Section Chief Chen, you will cooperate with the secretary to finalize the list of artists for the first reference. There should be three generations of artists, old, middle and young. Let’s follow the ratio of 1:1:1.”

"I understand, manager!" Lu Zhaode and Lou Xinying nodded in agreement.

"Understood!" Chen Lijun also nodded.

The next day, after seeing off Chen Lijun and her party, Zhang Junping came to the facade building next to Charles de Gaulle Square.

This is a facade building bought for more than 200 million French francs. Zhang Junping is always worried if he doesn't come over to take a look.

I'm not worried about the house being run away, I'm mainly here to see if the store has been cleaned up.

After cleaning it up, he can arrange for people to decorate it and then recruit shop assistants.

"Are you Mr. Zhang?" A delicate female clerk in her thirties saw Zhang Junping and quickly stepped forward to say hello.

"Hello! Who are you?"

"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I am the original manager of this store. My name is Rosa Bright. You can just call me Rosa." The delicate woman introduced herself.

"Hello Miss Rosa!" Zhang Junping nodded politely.

"Mr. Zhang, I heard that you bought this building with the intention of opening a gallery?"

"Yes! I plan to use this room to open a gallery." Zhang Junping nodded.

Rosa knew what he wanted to do, which was not surprising at all. He had never concealed what he wanted to do when buying a house.

"Sir, have you found a clerk yet?" Rosa smoothed her hair and asked with expectant eyes.

"Not yet!" Zhang Junping roughly guessed what Rosa wanted from him.

"Sir, do you think you can keep us? We are all experienced clerks.

You can ask around, our business here used to be very good, but because the boss failed to invest, we had to sell off the property."

"I believe you because I have been here as a guest before and I have a very good impression of you.

It's just that you used to be clerks in a clothing store, and I want to open a gallery and art store, are you sure you are qualified?" Zhang Junping asked with a smile.

"Yes! Sir, the core of sales is to control the customer's psychology. As long as you understand the customer's psychological activities, it doesn't matter what you sell.

Although we don’t understand oil paintings and artworks, we understand the psychology of customers and the knowledge of oil paintings and artworks. We can learn it, and we will definitely be able to master some knowledge of oil paintings and artworks before you open a store." Rosa explained hurriedly.

"Okay! You convinced me!

You are right, the most important thing in sales is to understand the psychology of customers, it doesn't matter what you sell.

You and the other store clerk can stay if you want." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

I'm really lucky to have found so many skilled shop assistants at once.

A group of shop assistants who are facing unemployment are definitely better than those who go to the job market to recruit shop assistants.

Moreover, these clerks are all first-class, high-quality talents. They may not necessarily be beautiful, but they are all above the standard and have great figures. The most important thing is that they have received professional training.

can be cultivated.

"Thank you, sir. I thank you on behalf of the sisters! We will definitely work hard!" Rosa was overjoyed and quickly thanked you.

She is finally worthy of her little sisters, Rosa thought happily.

Although France is also a developed capitalist country, the employment situation in the country is not good. It is not easy for high-quality shop assistants like them to find jobs.

The turnover of people in luxury stores is not large, and the employment situation is even worse.

In addition, they are used to working in luxury stores, and they cannot accept the psychological gap if they are asked to work in ordinary stores.

So both parties felt that they were lucky and got a bargain.

"I mainly sell Chinese ink paintings and traditional Chinese handicrafts. After a while, I will personally train you." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Thank you, boss. We have received notice from the original boss that we will not come to work the day after tomorrow. He will settle our wages and compensation for us clearly tomorrow." Rosa revealed a piece of news to Zhang Junping.

After leaving the store, Zhang Junping returned to the hotel.

I sat on the sofa and drank a cup of tea, but couldn't think of what to do.

If you have nothing to do, let's practice painting.

Zhang Junping is very clear about his own problems, so when he is in the company, he often takes time to write and draw. Don't tell me, writing and drawing can become addictive. If you get used to it, if you don't touch a pen for a day, you will feel less.

What.

Thinking of this, Zhang Junping simply took out his easel, brushes, and paints and put them in his backpack.

I left the hotel with my backpack and came to Place de la Concorde.

Place de la Concorde and Place Charles de Gaulle are the two most famous squares located on the Champs Elysées, one in the east and one in the west.

Place Charles de Gaulle is located on the west side of the Champs Elysées. Both sides of the street are dominated by high-end commercial districts, where the stores of major luxury brands are concentrated.

Place de la Concorde is located in the eastern section of the Champs Elysées. There are many lawns on both sides of the street and beautiful natural scenery. Because it is far away from the business district, it is relatively quiet and is the best place to spend leisure time.

Zhang Junping rode a bicycle to the Place de la Concorde.

Finding an angle, Zhang Junping set up the easel, took out the dyes, and arranged the palettes one by one.

Then fix the canvas on the easel.

Newbies, beginners, need to make a rough draft first, then sketch on the canvas, draw the rough draft, and then add color. Therefore, some people feel that it takes a long time to paint an oil painting, and it takes a day or two to complete a good painting.

.

In fact, not necessarily. At Zhang Junping's level, there is no need to make a draft at all, he can directly adjust the colors and paint on the canvas.

Zhang Junping painted the Place de la Concorde, the Egyptian Obelisk, and eight statues below the Egyptian Obelisk. The Poseidon Fountain and the River Fountain in the south and north are in the middle ground, and the Louvre in the distance and the Tuileries Garden are in the distance.

.

The close-up view is of course the tourists relaxing in the square.

Draw the long shot first, then the middle shot, and finally the figures in the close shot.

Basically, the middle ground exists as the background board, and the characters are the soul of the entire painting.

Zhang Junping painted very attentively and very quickly. He finished the long and medium shots in less than an hour.

After painting the mid-range shot, Zhang Junping took a step back and prepared to see how to lay out and draw the close-up figures.

The distant view is the flesh and blood of the painting, while the close shot is the soul of the painting.

"Ouch!" As soon as he took a step back, he heard a cry of pain from behind.

Zhang Junping quickly turned around and saw a little girl with brown hair and blue eyes who had been touched by him and fell to the ground.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Zhang Junping apologized quickly, then reached out to help the other person up.

"Uh..." Just as he helped the other person up, Zhang Junping was stunned.

He swore that he was absolutely right.

This absolute beauty is Sophie Marceau, there is absolutely nothing wrong with her.

Good guy, isn’t this too premature?

Sophie Marceau is thirteen years old this year?

She is nearly 1.7 meters tall. The little girl also wears a pair of leather boots with heels, a black leather jacket, and black jeans. She looks like a boy.

If Sophie Marceau's hat had not fallen off when she fell, revealing her long hair, Zhang Junping would never have recognized her and would have thought it was a little boy.

"I'm sorry, I didn't notice you just now. Did it break?" Zhang Junping said apologetically.

"No, I'm too close!

Sir, your painting is so good, I am a little fascinated by it." Sophie Marceau looked at Zhang Junping with admiration.

"Why, you also like painting?" Zhang Junping asked with a smile.

The current Sophie Marceau is not the sexy queen of future generations, but a pure and energetic girl.

"Yes! I really like painting, but my mother doesn't let me paint!" Sophie Marceau's bright eyes were full of desire and a trace of loss.

"Then wait until I finish painting this painting, and I will teach you how to paint!" Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Really? Thank you sir, it's just..." Sophie Marceau said tangledly.

She wanted to learn painting very much, but she also knew that learning painting was very expensive and her family could not support her learning painting.

"By the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Sophie Marceau! Sir, just call me Sophie."

"Okay Sophie!

There is no tuition fee for learning painting from me.

If you really like painting, you can be a model for me later and I will teach you how to paint. I will also give you a set of tools for painting!" Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Really?!" Sophie Marceau said in surprise.

"Of course!

You serve as a model for me, and I give you painting tools as gifts. This is called courtesy in China." Zhang Junping explained with a smile.

He didn't dare to mention giving money. Giving money would involve employing child labor, but giving gifts would not affect it.

Zhang Junping looked Sophie Marceau up and down. Although she was just thirteen years old, she was already well developed.

Although it was Xiao He who only showed her sharp horns, Sophie Marceau is worthy of being the sexy queen of later generations. Her body is full of spirituality, which made Zhang Junping have a love for talents.

If I cultivate Sophie Marceau into a talented young painter, will future generations hate me for taking away their sexy queen?
