To Huang Xue, he naturally couldn't say that he accidentally heard the news in his previous life and knew that there was such a shocking leak in Xiangjiang.
There are more than twenty pieces of Yongzheng imitation Xuande yellow glaze plate and dragon pattern porcelain. Twenty years later, each piece was auctioned for tens of millions, which is definitely a shocking leak.
As for the large vase with blue and white figures from the Yuan Dynasty in which Jing Ke stabbed the King of Qin, Zhang Junping was not optimistic either. He just felt that this piece of porcelain was quite attractive. The price was not high anyway, so he bought it if he found it attractive.
Zhang Junping and Huang Xue put the boxes in the car and continued to wander around the antique street.
The antique market in Xiangjiang is relatively prosperous, and the price of prosperity is that it is filled with all kinds of modern handicrafts.
Not only are there people in China making high imitations, there are also people in Hong Kong and even abroad who specialize in antique counterfeiting.
Therefore, Zhang Junping and Huang Xue went around and took down more than a dozen paintings, including paintings by Xu Beihong, Zhang Daqian, and a painting of Tang Yin's ladies.
Zhang Junping didn't buy any more porcelain. It's not that Zhang Junping didn't have the eyesight to distinguish the authenticity of porcelain.
Okay! It’s indeed a bit of a lack of eyesight.
What's more important is that he doesn't like ordinary porcelain, and the price of some rare porcelain is too high.
Zhang Junping bought porcelain not to resell it at a high price ten or twenty years later, but to collect it.
His calligraphy, painting, and wood carving skills have reached the current stage, and there is little progress if he continues to study hard and practice hard.
If you want to make progress, you can only improve your artistic accomplishment by drawing parallels and increasing experience.
Collecting and appreciating porcelain is a good way.
Exquisite porcelain, both in shape and the patterns depicted on it, has extremely high artistic attainments.
Don't underestimate the ancient craftsmen. They may not have a high level of education. Not to mention their own skills in firing ceramics. Their painting skills alone are much better than some so-called calligraphy and painting masters today.
These are the nutrients for Zhang Junping's progress.
I spent an afternoon wandering around and gained a lot.
After returning to the hotel, they put their things in the safe that came with the hotel room, and after enjoying another meal in the hotel, Zhang Junping and Huang Xue left the hotel again.
When he was in China, Zhang Junping always said that he would go to the movies with Huang Xue, but it turned out that they had been in a relationship for almost a year, and they only went there once.
Now, in Xiangjiang, it is rare to have leisure time, so Zhang Junping naturally fulfilled his promise and watched a few movies with Huang Xue.
What was being released at this time was "The Five Lucky Stars," a movie directed by and starring Sammo Hung. There were many big-name stars in it, including Jackie Chan who had a cameo role.
Zhang Junping has watched this movie more than ten times, but it was his first time to watch it in a cinema, and the feeling was different.
It's a very funny movie. Although it's a Cantonese version, Huang Xue couldn't understand the lines in it, but he still kept laughing throughout the whole movie.
Seeing Zhong Chuhong being taken advantage of by Sammo Hung and others in the movie, Zhang Junping couldn't help but sigh, no wonder the marriages of these actresses are not very satisfactory.
Not even a man can bear it when his girlfriend is hugged and hugged by other men.
oh!
That's not entirely true, some men are quite generous.
Not to mention hugging and hugging each other on the screen, as long as you give money, you are willing to let your girlfriend or wife do some special work.
…
For the next period of time, Zhang Junping took some time every day to listen to the reports from Richard and Lin Yanxiang to understand the progress of the negotiations.
The rest of the time, I spent time traveling with Huang Xue, visiting all the scenic spots in Xiangjiang, and even went to Macau, where I gambled a bit and lost hundreds of dollars.
A week later, the negotiations were still at a stalemate, but Rolls-Royce was the first to deliver the good news.
There are more than ten models in the Phantom series and Wraith series. Rolls-Royce offered a one-time buyout of US$66.66 million.
The reason why it is US$66.66 million is because this is Richard's masterpiece.
According to Richard, six is a very auspicious number in Chinese numbers, so he insisted on setting such a price.
Zhang Junping wanted to tell him that the number nine was more auspicious and he liked it more.
However, Zhang Junping also knows that selling 66.66 million is already very good.
Although it is said that there are more than ten car models designed, in fact, many models only have detailed changes, and it is a bit far-fetched to have to be listed as a single appearance design to achieve profit.
Richard's commission is 5%, and the number is also very auspicious, 3,333,000 US dollars.
The tax on the transfer of patent rights is very high.
Zhang Junping still has to pay personal income tax on the remaining money.
Zhang Junping didn't understand such professional matters as how to avoid taxes and how to pay less taxes, so he left them all to Richard, a financial consultant.
Zhang Junping followed Richard's instructions and registered a charity foundation in Xiangjiang.
The purpose of this charitable foundation is to help out-of-school children and poor craftsmen around the world as an independent closed charitable foundation.
The so-called closed type means that this charitable foundation does not accept donations from the public.
In this way, there is no need to disclose it to the public, and it only needs to be inspected regularly by relevant departments.
Then, all patent income is paid into the account of the charitable foundation.
Finally, the funds from the charitable foundation were handed over to Richard for operation and investment and financial management.
After such operations, Zhang Junping did not need to hand over a penny to the Queen of England.
As for how Zhang Junping uses the money in the foundation account, it is also very simple.
He and Huang Xue both have the title of charity ambassador in the foundation and receive a large salary every month.
If Zhang Junping needs to buy antiques or the like, he can use the foundation's account.
The advantage of a closed foundation is that Zhang Junping can use the foundation's money to buy antiques and put them at home, as long as the relevant departments have these items during routine inspections.
After listening to Richard's explanation, Zhang Junping was stunned to see that he could still play like this.
At this moment, Zhang Junping wanted to scold his mother.
In the Xiangjiang movie, those rich people often regard themselves as taxpayers, saying that the civil servants rely on the taxes they pay to support themselves.
How shameless.
According to Richard, whether in Hong Kong, Europe or the United States, the real taxpayers are the middle class.
The wealthy upper class have their own tax avoidance methods.
For example, Bill Gates’ naked donation was more famous in later generations.
This is the naked tax avoidance behavior of Te Niang.
A naked donation is a naked donation, but it can be donated to a foundation that you control.
All my daily expenses go to the accounts of the company and the charitable foundation, and I also receive a high salary from the company and the foundation.
