Chapter 192: Xiaozhi moves with emotion and reason
The group followed Director Xie to the Yancheng Museum.
Bai Qingluo paid special attention to the flow of people in the museum.
It was obviously a Sunday, but there were not many people.
"Mr. Bai, please come here."
Director Xie's words made Bai Qingluo recover her thoughts and come to the internal working building of Yancheng Museum.
The newly unearthed armor is placed in a glass cabinet in the work building for other staff to study.
Bai Qingluo couldn't move her eyes away as soon as she saw the armor.
There is a tassel in the helmet, and there is a beam on the left and right. The accessories of the armor are complete. In addition to the shoulder pads, there are also gold-plated breast shields on the chest and back. The left and right sides of the apron are decorated with armor plates.
Arranged in a mountain shape, they sparkle under the light.
It's how she remembers it.
Bai Qingluo's mind moved slightly and she wanted to touch her.
"Thank you, Director, can I touch it?"
"This armor is of late vintage and is very close to us. Of course you can give it a try."
It's rare for Director Xie to meet someone who loves cultural relics so much, so he naturally doesn't mind.
"I really didn't expect Mr. Bai to be interested in the military equipment of the previous dynasty. This is rare among young people."
Bai Qingluo wore these almost every day in her last life, how could she not be interested.
This armor is not of the highest quality, but the workmanship is quite satisfactory.
It's not as good as the ones Ren Weilong found a blacksmith to forge a few days ago.
"Thank you, Director, I have something to ask of you!"
Bai Qingluo took back her reluctant hand, turned around and bowed to Director Xie.
"Chao Qi is planning to shoot a set of posters based on ancient military life to promote traditional culture. I also hope that the Lincheng Museum can lend Chao Qi this armor for a few days to complete the shooting task."
So direct?
Ren Weilong and Luo Yanjing, who followed next to them, were both surprised.
How could anyone agree?
Curator Xie looked embarrassed and said, "Mr. Bai, you are trying to force someone to do something difficult. After all, this armor is a cultural relic and a precious treasure of the country. Is there anything inappropriate about lending it to Chao Qi to shoot promotional posters?"
For a gentle and elegant person like Director Xie, this is considered a polite refusal.
This is a national cultural relic, and it is really inappropriate to lend it to private individuals for private use.
"I understand Director Xie's concerns. It's just that the existence of cultural relics is to prove history and make it easier for future generations to understand history and understand history. But we have just come all the way, and even on weekends, the flow of people in the museum is not ideal."
"Although the museum is not for profit, such a flow of people shows the current lack of interest in history among the public."
Bai Qingluo discovered this problem before she came.
She talked about the issues that Director Xie has been most worried about over the years.
"If the future generations don't know how to read history and don't pay attention to history, these cultural relics will be just old objects that will be covered in dust and lose their original light. No one will remember the future generations, forget the history, no one will study it, and the existence of cultural relics will be lost.
What's the meaning?" Speaking of this, Bai Qingluo herself felt a little sad.
"The poster Chao Qi is going to shoot is precisely to promote traditional culture, and to arouse young people's interest in traditional culture by virtue of Chao Qi's influence among young people."
Director Xie never thought that he could cooperate with modern companies and lend cultural relics to promote history.
Bai Qingluo's words are whimsical, but if you think about it carefully, it makes some sense.
If Chao Qi's influence can really be used to promote traditional culture and let more young people understand history, then it would not be a bad idea to lend an armor that is not ancient and fragile.
"But...this is the first piece of armor from the former dynasty that we have discovered after all."
Director Xie was still a little reluctant to part with it.
People who are not professionals simply don’t know how to take better care of cultural relics.
If it is damaged by then, it will be a huge loss to their Yancheng Museum.
Bai Qingluo's smile deepened, "Mr. Xie, don't worry, we will definitely not borrow it in vain."
"If Director Xie is willing to lend this armor to Chao Qi, Chao Qi promises to donate 50 million research funds to the Yancheng Museum after the poster shooting is completed to encourage and help the Yancheng Museum to conduct subsequent research."
Director Xie:!!
Fifty million?!!
This is a huge amount of money.
If we can really get these 50 million, the Yancheng Museum will be able to do research without worrying about funding problems for the next three years.
But Director Xie still looked hesitant.
"If Director Xie thinks there is no problem, I will ask my assistant to bring the contract to the Yancheng Museum tomorrow. We can pay half of it as a deposit of 50 million to show our sincerity."
"good!"
Such a large amount of money can solve the problem of fund shortage of Yancheng Museum in recent years.
What's more, Bai Qingluo was only borrowed for a few days to shoot promotional posters. When the posters come out, they will get a good response and attract more people to visit the museum.
Director Xie had no reason to refuse.
"Is it convenient for Director Xie to leave your contact information? This will make it easier to contact you in the future."
Luo Yanjing suddenly stepped forward and asked Director Xie for her personal contact information.
Director Xie did not refuse and readily gave it.
Set a time with Bai Qingluo and others and send them to the entrance of the museum.
"See you there. Thank you again, Mr. Bai, for your strong support to the Yancheng Museum."
"It's a matter of mutual benefit, Director Xie, there's no need to be polite."
The two of them exchanged polite greetings before they separated and went back to their respective homes.
In the car, Bai Qingluo raised her eyelids slightly and glanced sideways at Ren Weilong, "Do you still think this is completely impossible?"
Ren Weilong was stunned from the moment before he realized that they had actually borrowed cultural relics from the museum.
The curator still had a smile on his face and was very happy.
Both he and Luo Yanjing were unable to recover for a long time because of the powerful aura that Bai Qingluo had just revealed.
He smacked his lips, "Then where to go now? Shall we go back to the company to draw up a contract?"
"Eat first."
After being out for so long and chatting with Director Xie for so long, Bai Qingluo was really hungry.
Bai Qingluo sat down to eat her lunch calmly, while the other two stared at her as soon as they sat down.
Seeing this, Bai Qingluo couldn't help but frown, "What's wrong?"
They both shook their heads again and ate quietly.
It was rare that Ren Weilong didn't speak at the dinner table. This meal of Bai Qingluo was quite comfortable.
She wiped her mouth slowly, and just when she was about to hand over the signing of the contract to Ren Weilong, her phone rang.
The name "Luo Yanchen" on the screen caused her heart to stop for two seconds.
She had completely forgotten that Luo Yanchen usually came to have dinner with her at noon.
I have been negotiating with Director Xie and have forgotten to check my phone.
"You guys eat first, I'll leave first."
After saying that, he picked up his bag and left in a hurry.
Ren Weilong and Luo Yanjing were left looking at each other.
Luo Yanjing was still immersed in what she had just seen in the museum.
The eyes can't deceive, and the confidence between Bai Qingluo's brows is very similar to that of another person she knows.
