Chapter 258 Withdrawal of Exhibits
When Xu Qiang was looking at Zheng Banqiao's bamboo paintings, suddenly a staff member of the exhibition hall walked by, followed by two security guards, and directed them to open the display cabinet and take out Zheng Banqiao's paintings.
"Wait, what do you guys know?" Xu Qiang stopped the staff.
"I'm sorry sir, we just received a notification that the owner of this painting has temporarily decided to withdraw the commission and does not want to sell this painting." The staff explained.
Don't want to sell?
The people around were as surprised as Xu Qiang.
Because this piece of bamboo by Zheng Banqiao is one of the best quality among the calligraphy and painting products that can be sold in this cultural festival.
There is more than one person who is tempted, but he hasn't made a move yet.
It's all right now, even if you are tempted, it's useless, because the owner of the painting has decided not to sell it, which disappointed many people, but Xu Qiang was not included.
Because Xu Qiang didn't want to buy it at first, it has another purpose.
"I've already decided to buy it, but you've canceled it now, shouldn't you give me an explanation?" Xu Qiang didn't intend to let it go easily.
"Sir, I'm very sorry, we can't help it, because the owner of the painting strongly requests..."
"When did I ask to withdraw it?" Just as the staff explained to Xu Qiang, a visitor walked by.
It's an old man who looks to be in his 50s, but his expression at this time is not good-looking, like before the storm broke out.
"Who are you?" the staff member asked with a smile on his face.
"I am the owner of this painting, and I entrusted you to the Antique Association to sell it. When did I ask you to withdraw the painting?" The old man asked loudly.
Xu Qiang smiled, he understood what was going on.
When he saw Jiang Wenbin calling secretly just now, he must have reported to the senior management of the Antique Association that Xu Qiang had a new target.
The people from the Antiques Association must be worried about accidents and have no legitimate reason to stop Xu Qiang, so they came up with an expedient measure to take down Zheng Banqiao's painting that Xu Qiang had taken a fancy to.
Originally, there was no problem in doing so, but at worst, after Xu Qiang left, he put the painting back, but unexpectedly, it would be self-defeating.
The person who entrusted the sale of this painting happened to be at the exhibition site, so when the Antique Association withdrew the ancient painting, it alarmed the owner of the ancient painting.
Now the Antiques Association is in trouble. If there is no reasonable explanation, those who put out Zheng Banqiao's paintings for sale may not be so easy to give up.
Moreover, once this matter gets out, some people will question the Antiques Association, and even affect the reputation of the Antiques Association to a certain extent. This is probably not expected by the person who decided to withdraw the painting.
"Is this painting yours?" The staff member in charge of withdrawing the ancient painting opened his mouth wide. He was also taken aback. He didn't expect to meet the owner of the painting.
"Is it not mine or yours?" The old man was very annoyed.
He also visited on a whim, because the Antique Culture Festival is only held once every three years, and some fine works will be exhibited every time.
People who are interested in antiques, as long as their body and time permit, basically will not miss it. As an antique collector, of course, they will not miss the opportunity.
He came to the area available for sale, and everyone checked to see if there were any high-quality goods that he liked, so as to enrich his personal collection. Unexpectedly, he didn't find the high-quality goods after he fell in love with them, but found that the ancient paintings he had entrusted for sale had been withdrawn.
He became popular at that time, what does the Antique Association mean?
"Grandpa, don't be angry, there must be some misunderstanding here, let's go to the lounge and talk about it?" After confirming that it was the painting of the old man, the staff felt a headache.
how to explain?
He didn't know how to explain it, because it was only ordered to withdraw the ancient painting, but the owner of the ancient painting said that he hadn't withdrawn it, so he knew there must be something wrong.
If you make trouble in public, it will definitely have extremely adverse effects, so he must appease the old man as soon as possible, and then go to a relatively private space to communicate and explain.
"Go to the lounge and say, is it because what you have done is shameful?" Xu Qiang said after laughing. He came to visit the Antiques Association today for the purpose of revenge, and of course he will not miss this good opportunity.
When the audience around heard it, they immediately started booing.
The staff who came to withdraw the ancient paintings are already sweating.
Seeing that there were more and more people watching, Xu Qiang nodded in satisfaction, then turned around and left. There was no need for him to continue to participate. The surrounding spectators would help Xu Qiang complete the next revenge.
When Xu Qiang left, he saw Jiang Wenbin calling again not far away.
"Vice President, something serious happened!" Jiang Wenbin was also sweating now.
He is the one who knows best why Zheng Banqiao's painting was removed, because he is the person involved, and he saw Xu Qiang fancy Zheng Banqiao's painting, and then reported the situation to the vice president.
Although Feng Fangying didn't tell him that the ancient paintings would be withdrawn, as soon as he saw that the staff had withdrawn the ancient paintings and they were no longer for sale, he understood what was going on, and it was a countermeasure to prevent Xu Qiang from causing trouble.
"what's up?"
"The person who commissioned the auction of Zheng Banqiao's painting was at the scene. He saw that we had taken down his painting, and now he is demanding an explanation from us..." Jiang Wenbin looked at the scene of the accident.
Now more than 60 people have gathered around, and they have attracted the attention of more people around. If the time delays for a while, more people will gather around.
Now that the Internet is very developed, everyone can be a media person as long as they have a mobile phone connected to the Internet. This matter must not be covered, and someone may have broadcast it in real time.
If the Antique Association does not give a reasonable explanation, it will be very troublesome.
"Damn it, Xu Qiang!" Feng Fangying, who was sitting in the temporary lounge and drinking tea, slapped the table hard after hearing Jiang Wenbin's report.
Without chatting for a while, he took the teacup back, and in the teacup was the scalding hot water he had just poured, which splashed on his hands and legs all at once, making him jump up with a groan.
Jumping up and down in the lounge, the back of his hand was hot red.
It took a long time to slow down, and Feng Fangying gritted her teeth thinking about Xu Qiang.
Without Xu Qiang, so many troubles would not have happened.
"You continue to follow Xu Qiang, I will watch him to death, and I will take care of the rest!" Feng Fangying ordered Jiang Wenbin to put his scalded hand under the faucet and run cold water.
When Feng Fangying was burned, Xu Qiang had already seen more than ten exhibits in succession, and suddenly stopped in front of one exhibit.
What attracted Xu Qiang's attention was a golden paperweight.
It looks like gold with water ripples, but anyone who knows a little about antique dealers will know that this is not gold at all, but a very precious material.
Golden nan ebony!
It is a special treasure formed over a long period of time under the special conditions of high pressure and oxygen deficiency when trees encounter sudden natural changes such as floods and mudslides, and are deeply buried in the ground.
The golden nan ebony is the top of the ebony.
In particular, the highly skilled carver has greatly increased the value of this piece of ebony ebony. Although it is not as valuable as the fair imperial supplies, it is still of extraordinary value.
Of course, Xu Qiang didn't like this one, but when he came here, out of the corner of his eye, he found that Jiang Wenbin was following him.
Of course, he already knew what Jiang Wenbin was doing with him, so he had an idea and prepared to continue digging for Jiang Wenbin, to be precise, digging for the Antiques Association through Jiang Wenbin.
"Can you introduce this paperweight?" Professor Xu Qiang recruited a staff member of the Antiques Association, expressing his interest in this paperweight.
"Sir, you are really discerning. This is a piece of ebony..." The staff was very conscientious and began to introduce the paperweight of ebony.
The staff did their duty, but Jiang Wenbin had a headache.
He regretted it a bit, he shouldn't have chosen to follow Xu Qiang.
Every time Xu Qiang stopped in front of the booth, he was terrified. He even suspected that if he followed Xu Qiang all the time, maybe after this exhibition, his originally healthy body would suffer from heart disease.
"Don't fall in love with it, don't buy it..." Seeing Xu Qiang asking the staff to introduce him, Jiang Wenbin prayed in his heart not far away.
However, the facts were not as expected. He saw that Xu Qiang nodded in satisfaction, and there was a tendency to buy it, but he knew very well that he must not let Xu Qiang buy it.
Otherwise, if there is a problem, the Antique Association will be in big trouble.
Zhang Daqian's imitation of Tang Bohu's ancient painting incident must never happen again, otherwise the Antique Association may lose its reputation.
"Vice President, it's too bad, Xu Qiang is about to buy a Jinsinnan ebony paperweight..." Seeing that Xu Qiang was very likely to buy it, Jiang Wenbin could only bite the bullet and make a phone call.
Five minutes after the phone call, a staff member came over.
Holding a label and pasting it on the showcase of the golden ebony paperweight.
"Already sold?" Xu Qiang asked the staff.
"Yes!"
"Why didn't you post it just now?"
"I'm very sorry, I was going through the procedure just now, and now the procedure is over, please understand!" The staff said to Xu Qiang very politely.
Follow the procedure?
Xu Qiang sneered in his heart, he was not a fool.
It is clearly like Zheng Banqiao's paintings to prevent him from buying them.
He looked around at the visitors, but no one stood up. Obviously, the owner of the Jinsinnan ebony paperweight was not at the scene, but just like Zheng Banqiao's painting, it happened to happen that the owner was at the scene.
snort!
Xu Qiang snorted coldly, thinking that I would have nothing to do?
"This golden hairpin is not bad..." Xu Qiang quickly stopped at another showcase and asked the staff.
Xu Qiang waited for the detailed introduction of the staff.
He didn't make him wait any longer, that is, in less than 5 minutes, another staff member came over and labeled Nobile as sold.
It is the same as the golden nan ebony paperweight just now, and even the reason for the explanation is the same, and the labeling is done just after the procedure.
Xu Qiang was not surprised at all, and continued to look at the next item.
"This jade carving of a famous tea..."
"This snuff bottle..."
"This fan..."
In less than an hour, Xu Qiang took a fancy to nearly eight items one after another, and all of them were labeled as sold without exception.
"What exactly does Xu Qiang want to do?" After receiving reports from Jiang Wenbin again and again, and labeling one product after another with future labels, Feng Fangying realized that it could not continue.
If you continue to post, I am afraid that all the products sold will be labeled as sold. If there are too many posts, there will be big problems.
But if you don't post it, what if Xu Qiang buys a problematic one?
"President, something is wrong, Xu Qiang..." Feng Fangying felt that he couldn't hold it back, it was beyond his ability, so he called the president for help.
"Wait, what do you guys know?" Xu Qiang stopped the staff.
"I'm sorry sir, we just received a notification that the owner of this painting has temporarily decided to withdraw the commission and does not want to sell this painting." The staff explained.
Don't want to sell?
