Chapter 557 Highly Praise
At this time, many people may not have noticed.
Xu Jinjiang, a famous Hong Kong actor and painter, gave Su Chen a big thumbs up on all his social media accounts.
He also forwarded a series of updates about Su Chen's creation of "Sunflowers" in the Ugly Country.
"Teacher Su Chen is indeed an all-round top painting master!"
"It seems that I need to learn more from Teacher Su Chen in the future."
After seeing Rodriguez's evaluation of Su Chen, Xu Jinjiang secretly made up his mind.
Yes, from the first time they met, Xu Jinjiang could see that Su Chen's Chinese painting skills had reached the master level.
But Xu Jinjiang didn't expect that Su Chen's oil paintings also reached the master level.
This is quite scary.
You have to know that every profession has its own specialties.
Especially when it comes to painting, a person may not be able to reach the master level even if he spends his entire life.
Just like Xu Jinjiang himself.
I have been studying and researching Chinese painting for decades, but I am still hovering on the border between a painter and a master painter.
If he could get Su Chen's guidance, perhaps he could break through that hurdle in his lifetime!
…
The event site.
Su Chen faced such high praise from Rodriguez and endless praise from veteran painters such as Galti.
To be honest, I was a little surprised.
After all, the contrast between these old guys before and after is too great.
So in fact, Su Chen was mentally prepared for a tortuous struggle.
If Rodriguez and others cannot give his paintings a fair judgment, Su Chen may need to extend this timeline.
Van Gogh spent his entire life trying to get his "Sunflowers" to receive the respect it deserves.
Therefore, it is normal that paintings do not receive due praise and honor when they are first published.
Su Chen believed that as long as his "Sunflowers" was published, with his worldwide fame and influence, it would soon be noticed by more upright painters and win more fair judgments.
But now, Rodriguez directly gave his "Sunflowers" the highest praise.
Then, there is no need to take those tortuous roads.
At that moment, Su Chen bowed slightly to Rodriguez, Galti and others:
"Thanks!"
Then he turned to the Hazard and said:
"Mr. Hazar, I think we can continue our activities."
Yes, they have been delayed here for too long. In fact, it has exceeded Su Chen's time budget.
Therefore, he hopes that the next activities can be connected as soon as possible and completed smoothly.
Seeing this situation, Rodriguez and others couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
Especially Rodriguez, who gave Su Chen's paintings the highest praise.
Logically, shouldn’t Su Chen say a few words back to Rodriguez?
What happened to the business promotion that was promised to each other?
This guy has no martial ethics.
Fortunately, before Rodriguez and others came, they had some understanding of Su Chen's style of doing things.
I know that Su Chen is such a cold and taciturn person.
So it was normal for Su Chen to respond to them so coldly.
After realizing this, Rodriguez and others felt a little better.
I was born like this. I am like this no matter what time or occasion.
It's not that I'm being cold to them.
You can't always ask people to change their personality just to brag about you, right?
Hearing Su Chen's words.
Hazar finally reacted.
"Um!"
"Let's continue!"
“…”
"Teacher Suchen! Mr. Hazard! I have a suggestion!"
However, at this moment Rodriguez suddenly spoke again.
"oh?"
Although he didn't know what Rodriguez would say, Su Chen was still willing to listen to his advice first.
After all, a person who speaks so highly of himself should not say anything that would damage himself at this time.
Seeing that Su Chen had already agreed, Hazard certainly couldn't object.
Besides, at this time, Rodriguez's impression in Hazard's mind has completely changed.
Become less annoying.
It wouldn't be a bad thing to listen to the advice of an impartial old painter.
Now waved:
"My dear Rodriguez, please speak!"
Seeing this scene through the live broadcast camera, netizens in the ugly country were immediately aroused from curiosity.
"What the hell is this guy Rodriguez up to?"
"Since Rodriguez has already acknowledged Su Chen's painting skills, he shouldn't do anything that would be detrimental to Su Chen at this time!"
"Well, I hope this old guy can give some constructive advice."
"In fact, I hope that the lucky draw will start soon! A painting worth 10 million dollars is suitable for something that is closely related to us!"
"Too many twists and turns have happened in this Spider-Man launch event. I hope to get back to the point soon!"
“…”
Facing the surprised looks of the crowd, Rodriguez did not keep them in suspense and directly offered his suggestions:
"I suggest that Teacher Su Chen's "Sunflower" be auctioned on the spot!"
"Through the live broadcast on TV, people will always remember the immortal masterpiece "Sunflowers"!"
"very good!"
Just the next second, without any hesitation, Hazard immediately agreed with Rodriguez's suggestion.
“That’s a great idea!”
"Teacher Su Chen, what's your opinion?"
Obviously, this is a great opportunity to enhance NBC's influence.
How could I refuse such a good thing?
But of course, the final decision on this matter still lies in Su Chen himself.
So even though Hazard wanted to start the auction of "Sunflower" in the next second, he still needed Su Chen's permission before he could proceed.
“…”
Faced with this situation, Su Chen pinched his chin and thought about it.
As for the painting "Sunflowers", of course he planned to auction it off.
After all, for Su Chen, only the money in his hands is the most real.
So it is only a matter of time before "Sunflowers" is auctioned.
In this case, it would be better to hold the auction today than to wait for another day.
They can also further expand their global visibility and influence through NBC's live broadcast.
"Okay."
"Then let's auction off Sunflowers at the same time."
"Very good!"
Hazard, who had been staring at Su Chen eagerly, immediately clapped and cheered when he heard Su Chen's affirmative answer.
"Photographer, give me a close-up!"
At this moment, Hazar was overjoyed.
On this day, all good things came together.
First, Rodriguez helped Su Chen become famous, and then NBC could use the influence of Su Chen and the master-level painting "Sunflowers" to attract more attention!
The photographer responsible for the live broadcast immediately understood the situation and gave Hazare a close-up.
Hazar immediately assumed a heroic and proud posture:
"Dear ladies and gentlemen, dear friends from all walks of life!"
"Here, on behalf of Teacher Su Chen, I would like to extend an invitation to people from all walks of life to bid for Sunflowers!"
"This auction is not limited to on-site auctions. You can also bid online or by phone!"
"Please remember that this is the first painting created and auctioned publicly by the only living master painter so far!"
“Unique and irreplaceable!”
"The official auction of Sunflower will officially begin at 3 pm!"
“We welcome people from all walks of life to sign up and participate!”
Although, Hazare hopes to start the auction of "Sunflowers" in the next second.
But in reality, it takes some time for news to spread.
Even in this Internet information age, it takes a certain amount of time for the information about the auction of "Sunflowers" to reach major collectors and wealthy people.
Boom!
Upon hearing the news, the scene suddenly became a sensation.
Su Chen’s fans at the scene were all very excited.
"In other words, we can witness the auction of Brother Chen's immortal paintings?"
"How much money would it cost to buy Sunflowers?"
"A casual cartoon portrait by Brother Chen is worth 10 million dollars. This one was evaluated by the vice president of the Painting Association as a living master painting. It should be worth more than 100 million dollars!"
"This is so exciting! As fans of Brother Chen, we are so happy!"
"I'm so excited! Not only do I have the chance to get Brother Chen's portrait, but I can also witness the auction of Brother Chen's masterpiece! This is a benefit that even a 100,000 yuan ticket can't buy!"
“…”
There is no doubt that Su Chen’s fans at the scene were all very much looking forward to the auction of "Sunflower".
Once this masterpiece is auctioned live, the fans present at the scene will also become part of history.
Right now.
Seeing this information through the live broadcast camera, the Ugly Country network, and even the entire Ou Mei network, instantly exploded!
The first painting by the only master painter of the time to be auctioned publicly!
How could we miss such a historic work?
If you buy it, you can pass it down as a family heirloom!
It can definitely appreciate significantly!
Just look at the works of the late masters and you will see.
Its value has increased more than a hundred times compared to when it was first auctioned!
As a result, this information spread rapidly among collectors and wealthy people.
After receiving the information, collectors and wealthy people responded quickly.
Max: "I've reserved Teacher Su Chen's "Sunflower"!"
Cook: "The only masterpiece of the master, a must-have!"
Buffett: "In ten years, Sunflower will appreciate at least tenfold!"
Gates: "Such a diluted treasure, worth having!"
“…”
This news also spread throughout the country.
Su Chen's fans were instantly excited.
"Brother Chen, you are the eternal God in my heart!"
"How much is this worth?"
“There is no doubt that this will be a historic event!”
“…”
The celebrities in the entertainment industry are all envious.
Ahhhhhh…
We are all stars, why is there such a big gap?
They are still struggling for the appearance fees of several million dollars, but look at Su Chen. A cartoon portrait can easily be sold for more than tens of millions of dollars. Now, even more so, the initial valuation of an oil painting has reached 100 million dollars!
If this auction really starts, the transaction price will be an astronomical figure!
The money Su Chen earns from selling one oil painting is equal to what they would earn in two lifetimes!
Ahhhhhh…
At this time, the wealthy people in the country were all ready to make a move.
Teng Ma: "Teacher Su Chen's paintings should belong to China! Although I may not be able to get them back, I will definitely try my best to fight for them!"
Yun Ma: "I failed to buy Teacher Su Chen's paintings in Hong Kong last time. I must make up for my regret this time!"
Big Lao Wang: "Teacher Su Chen's paintings are the treasures of Chinese culture! Regardless of whether I can own them or not, I must participate in the auction!"
“…”
Seeing such exciting news, brothers Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun were actually itching to take action.
But when I think about my own financial situation.
In the end, they had no choice but to give up the idea of participating in the auction.
Financial resources do not allow it!
How much is their total wealth?
Su Chen's "Sunflower" was snapped up by a group of wealthy people around the world, and the final transaction price was definitely an astonishing figure.
The wealth of the Zhong brothers is really not enough compared to the world's top billionaires.
Oh, just take a look.
At least, Xiaochen is also “our own” child, right?
Xiaochen was able to create a miracle, and the Zhong brothers and Xingyi Media are all proud of it.
Thinking of this, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun felt relieved all of a sudden.
At the event.
Su Chen watched Hazar arrange everything in order.
I feel quite satisfied.
In this way, I don’t have to worry about those trivial things.
After finishing the auction of "Sunflowers", Hazard began to host the raffle for Suchen's "Spider-Man" comic book portrait.
“I am very happy to announce this to you all!”
"Next, we will immediately conduct a lucky draw for lucky fans."
"Please invite Teacher Su Chen to draw out three ultimate lucky winners for us!"
At the same time, Hazard pointed his palm in the direction of Su Chen.
The photographer on the scene was also very considerate and gave a close-up shot to Su Chen.
Su Chen smiled and stood up.
He then walked to the lottery box.
"Peter Parker is one of my favorite comic book characters, too!"
"I am very happy to share Peter Parker's portrait with you here."
As he spoke, Su Chen had already drawn out three colored balls that symbolized the member ID.
Then, Su Chen handed the three colored balls to Hazard, the first person in charge of the organizer of this event.
Hazar immediately opened the ball.
The final winners were announced.
This moment undoubtedly touched the hearts of countless Chinese netizens.
A high-end auction like that of "Sunflowers" is out of reach for ordinary netizens.
However, the lottery for the autographed portrait of Spider-Man Su Chen is closely related to them.
Who will be the three ultimate lucky ones?
The final answer is revealed right now!
