Return to the Road of God

In just a few days, the situation not only did not develop in a good direction, but also took a turn for the worse!

The contract issue is still a minor matter, mainly "illegal art trade".Rare works of art, like real estate and stock securities, are investment fields with high profitability. Before Chinese people pay attention to this, Hong Yun took advantage of the loopholes in the law and secretly put works of art into the market Carry out sharing and constantly increase the value of works.

In response to this incident, the relevant government departments announced that they will draft relevant regulations, including restricting the illegal trade of artworks, controlling art dealers and their related commercial activities, and requiring them to improve the unequal contracts between artists and art companies.This is tantamount to releasing the signal of "suppressing Hong Yun", and due to the collective attack of public opinion, Hong Yun Group lost the lawsuit without accident!

At the same time, a new company named "Haina Art" emerged. In order to attract talents, the company not only offered attractive signing conditions, but also promised to help all signatories resolve their contracts with their old clubs. strife.Regardless of whether the dispute can really be resolved, this kind of competition is almost fatal to Hong Yun who is suffering from the enemy at the moment!

Sure enough, many old artists who had signed contracts with Hong Yun Group switched jobs one after another, and newcomers in this field will no longer face unique choices.

The stock of Hongyun Group plummeted almost overnight, and the works of its artists also fell into the predicament of unsalable sales. If there is no turning point, they will inevitably face the situation of unable to turn over funds, and the bank will press interest to sue. No matter how you look at it, it will face bankruptcy.Although the Baijia and Tangjia were also affected to a certain extent, they were not as serious as Hongyun Group.Among them, Tang's was the first to escape, and the least implicated.

After reading the relevant reports on the Internet, Guan Hongze was in a state of confusion, but Guan Linyun's cell phone was always turned off, and no one answered the phone at home!In desperation, he called his former teacher, Chong Shan.

After confiding on the phone, he asked helplessly, "Teacher, what should I do now?"

Chongshan had never seen such an official Hongze before. In his impression, this child was precocious, sensible and full of self-confidence.That's right, he who was supposed to be Hong Yun's future successor couldn't accept such a change for a while!

"Hongze," Chongshan said with a sigh, "you have always been an excellent student in the teacher's mind, even if there is no Hongyun Group and your father behind you, you will still have your own achievements... ...I know that when something like this happens, you feel uncomfortable and worried, but, some things are about to happen, and you can only watch him happen, because now you don't have the ability to change anything..."

Even Chongshan said this, it seems that Hongyun is really "the end of the world"!

But what Guan Hongze cares about is not the rise and fall of the Hongyun Group. As a son of man, he wants to know what happened to his father now!The man who once comforted himself "don't worry", the man who once stood at the top of the art business world, what will happen in the face of such a blow...

Chongshan seemed to know what he was thinking, and comforted him: "Your father has been in the mall for a long time, his experience is much richer than yours, and his ability is much stronger than yours. Even if he can't turn the tide and save Hongyun, I believe he has enough ability to protect itself.”

Chong Shan paused, and then said, "As for you, I think you should think about it now, what is it that you really want to do after you have unloaded the burden of Hong Yun's successor and the cloak of fame and fortune... "

……

Chong Shan hung up the phone and sat on the sofa in a daze.

Ge Qinzhou was opposite him, and the man buried his head in a huge painting. They were preparing for the opening of the Xia Art Museum, and many paintings needed restoration due to age.

"Is that your 'noble' student?" Ge Qinzhou asked with a cigarette in his mouth.

Chongshan sighed: "Hongze is a pretty good kid, if the government doesn't fail, he should make Hongyun better."

Ge Qinzhou sneered: "Young master, who has been pampered since childhood, how can he have a correct attitude towards art?"

Chong Shan: "Today's Hongyun is not what it was 20 years ago. It is like a country changing its dynasty. No matter how bad it was at the beginning and how many mistakes it made, it will continue to improve itself for development. This is a process. We We should have a tolerant attitude towards him instead of completely destroying him... Hong Yun should not be criticized so much today."

Ge Qinzhou squinted at him: "Do you still have feelings for your old club?"

In the early years, Ge Qinzhou refused the invitation of the official family, and it was Chongshan who had the opportunity to replace him. Later, he entered the university as a teacher by relying on the official relationship, and gradually reached his current position.

However, he agreed to help Ge Qinzhou open Xia's Art Museum, and had already left the university a month ago, "I'm not as lofty and aloof as you, but at least I'm no worse than you." Chong Shan was a little angry.

If these words were written more than ten years ago, Ge Qinzhou would definitely lose his face, but after so long, he has also experienced a lot. High and proud.

"Okay, okay," Ge Qinzhou relented first, "I was wrong." Years taught him to bow his head, and also allowed him to find his lost lover.

Chong Shan: "Your attitude is wrong!"

Ge Qinzhou: "All right, all right, I have a bad attitude, please organize me to correct me!"

Chongshan let out a "puchi", turned his anger into a smile, and explained: "When I accepted the invitation from the official, I didn't follow others like you thought. Look, don't be like his grandfather, isn't that another change?"

"Okay, you," Ge Qinzhou said with a smile, "You're still saving the country!"

Chong Shan walked over and patted him on the back: "Of course you made the right choice back then, but sometimes, the strong will be humiliated, and the strong will be easily broken..." However, that is also a truly talented and talented person. The character that a person should have, only Ge Qinzhou can cultivate future artists like He Yuexi and Guo Zhekai. If he were himself, he could only teach others how to do things.

Ge Qinzhou joked, "Professor Chong, are you really teaching me?"

Chong Shan laughed at himself: "Don't talk about it, there is no basis for hypocrisy."

Ge Qinzhou: "Wait a minute..."

Chongshan: "Huh?"

"I asked you to talk so much..." Ge Qinzhou turned to look at Chong Shan, "Can you let me talk to you tonight?"

Chong Shan: "... Get lost!"

-

Guan Hongze sat on the stool with a pale face. What Chong Shan said to him really touched his heart and made him reflect on himself.

Before this incident happened, he once thought that he was excellent, at least compared to the second generation ancestor in the same circle, he had already done a good job.He worked hard and studied hard, hoping that one day he would be able to support the family business on his own, just like his father!

However, he thought of Qin Mengyuan, the guy who started an art studio from scratch and recruited art talents because of his interest in art since he was a child.That person was only a few years older than himself, and he already had a personal achievement that he could not surpass until now.

Look at yourself again, what have you been doing all these years?Step by step on the road guided by the elders, call friends, make friends with outstanding talents, work hard to weave your own network of contacts, and feel complacent because of the admiration of others.

After coming to Xili, he took "discovering artists" as his mission, so when he "discovered" Ye Yufan, he began to approach him constantly.But after getting in touch, he paid more attention to the "mystery" of Ye Yufan than to the "talent". He began to be distracted by the other's every move, and he also investigated the past of "Xia Xiaochuan" out of his own curiosity.In the past few days, he was even manipulated by Rui Beinian to hypnotize Ye Yufan like a puppet... He has already put the cart before the horse!

He fell in love with Ye Yufan, and he fell in love with it for no reason!But after knowing Ye Yufan's true strength, he only felt that he was not worthy of him.He tried his best to be nice to that person. In the name of sponsorship, he rented a house for them, held parties, and seduced him with the fame, fortune and future he could promise to him...

But when he opened Ye Yufan's phone, almost all of the call records were with that gangster named "Jiang Bing". Other than that, it was Ke Jing, He Yuexi and others.

He always thought that Ye Yufan was a slow-moving person, but he was wrong. It turned out that in Ye Yufan's mind, he was not even considered a "friend" from the beginning to the end.

Guan Hongze smiled wryly.

At this moment, he can finally answer the question that has puzzled him for a long time: There are indeed things in the world that cannot be exchanged for power and profit, and art is not exclusive to the upper class...

In the past, Guan Hongze always thought that he would compete with Qin Mengyuan after he inherited Hongyun. At this moment, he realized that without the protection of the official family, he is nothing!

Even his best friends—Fu Tingxin, Bai Mu, and Qin Mengyuan, who seem to be brothers and sisters—were acquainted because of the forces behind each of them, and their relationship would fall apart at any time because of the disintegration of interests behind them!

Chongshan asked him what he really wanted to do without the official family.

Guan Hongze's mind was completely blank.

There was a knock on the door, and it took Guan Hongze a long time to react. When he wanted to answer the door, someone from the outside had already pushed the door and entered—it was Fu Tingxin.

"I heard about your family," Fu Tingxin said straight to the point, "I feel sorry for you when you hear such news."

Guan Hongze did not speak.

"Lustre," Fu Tingxin walked up to Guan Hongze and said apologetically, "I also feel sorry for the Fu family's failure to provide help to your family before... I only found out today."

Guan Hongze raised his eyes, wanting to see whether Fu Tingxin was sincere or just out of politeness.

There was no expression of sympathy or comfort on Fu Tingxin's face, but he looked even more haggard than himself.

Guan Hongze said in a low voice, "It's okay, that's none of your business." And objectively speaking, the Fu family didn't favor any side, Fu Rongguo's remarks were correct.

Fu Tingxin sat cross-legged on the floor and sighed: "We all encountered setbacks."

Guan Hongze was puzzled: "What happened to you?" He knew that Fu Tingxin worked hard this semester and put a lot of energy into the competition, but this guy still stood out in the competition a few days ago, so he shouldn't be so depressed.

"I didn't expect him to be so powerful..." Fu Tingxin was a little at a loss, "I thought that my ability should be on par with him, and that as long as I put my mind to it, I could defeat him, but this time, he was an understatement. , without painting skills, he left me far behind..." Fu Tingxin shook his head, "It's a bit self-righteous to say that he is left behind, but now I realize that he is like a mountain lying in front of me..."

Guan Hongze guessed who Fu Tingxin was talking about, it was safale.

Thoroughly exposing one's pain and fragility is far more consoling than any words. Fu Tingxin's mood was felt by Guan Hongze, and he was a little moved.Thinking of a year ago now, the two were still discussing life in a hotel in Milan... At that time, Fu Tingxin was still lost, and there was no need to worry about his future.

In a blink of an eye, they all stumbled on their own paths in life...

At this moment, the two are facing each other in silence, and they feel a little bit like brothers and sisters.
