Chapter 210 The calligraphy and painting of the foreign guest service department!

The seventies, or even the early eighties.

The main means of transportation in Yanjing is bicycles, which is known as the Kingdom of Bicycles.

Even bicycles are not affordable for ordinary families. Many families do not even have a bicycle.

Yang Ming sat in the high-end Hongqi car and headed from Yanjing Hotel to the National History Museum.

Within a few hundred meters, Yang Ming saw many young men and women wearing factory uniforms passing by on bicycles.

Arrive at the entrance of the National History Museum.

The curator here, Chen Qian, has already learned in advance that Mr. Yang, chairman of Xiangjiang Empire Group, and his party will visit the National Museum of History.

Chen Qian and other management of the National Museum attach great importance to Mr. Yang's arrival.

Those Hongqi cars are parked outside.

Director Chen and others have already come out to greet them.

Yang Ming knows that many scenic spots have souvenirs.

Works of modern painters?

For the National History Museum, the calligraphy and paintings sold by the Foreign Guest Service Department are additional income, just like supermarket employees selling products in the supermarket. As long as they are sold, they will get a certain commission.

Especially selling to foreign guests who visit, you can also get a good amount of foreign exchange.

Many collectibles such as calligraphy and paintings are valuable only after the artist's death, and are not valuable during his or her lifetime.

...

These are people who are fed by the state, and their incomes are relatively high.

Many of these works were commissioned by painters, calligraphers, or even the painters themselves or their families and were given to the National History Museum. Or were works left behind by these painters and calligraphers who worked here in the past, and are now being sold.

.

stop-and-go.

For projectionists, the salary for level 1 is 99 yuan, the salary for level 2 is 91 yuan, and the salary decreases to 35.5 yuan for level 8.

As far as these prices are concerned, they are really not low compared to the current domestic average income and average prices.

Ordinary tourists can only visit within a specific small area.

....

In addition to these, the wage standards for workers in the six categories of areas are set.

They didn't expect that the National Museum of History is really different. They can see so many collections at one time.

The current salary standards for relevant personnel in the six categories of areas in the country.

Yang Ming had already sat on the wheelchair. After shaking hands with Chen Qian and others, he started to go inside.

"Mr. Yang, I am Chen Qian, the curator here. Welcome to visit the National History Museum."

Yang Ming was really shocked when he saw it for the first time.

If Lin Xiuzhi brought a camera, she could take pictures, but the others took one look and left.

...

However, many tourists are basically unwilling to spend money to buy so-called souvenirs.

Come down in one morning.

There are many cultural relics collected inside, which are very popular among domestic and foreign tourists.

In his previous life, he had not seen many precious collections, but now Yang Ming could see them all.

Now Chen Qian personally led Yang Ming and others to introduce the collections in the National Museum.

Now, apart from ticket revenue, the National Museum of History’s largest revenue should come from here.

Li Keran, an outstanding painter in modern China and a disciple of Qi Baishi.

So what kind of souvenirs are they selling?

When Yang Ming stopped, Chen Qian said: "Mr. Yang, souvenirs are sold here."

For slaughter workers, the salary for level 1 is 29 yuan, the salary for level 2 is 33.6 yuan, and it increases to level 8, with a maximum of 81.2 yuan.

Selling souvenirs?

It only costs 5 yuan per square foot!

In other words, with a monthly salary and a few dollars, you can buy a square foot of painter's work at the National History Museum.

Yang Ming hurriedly came to the front desk of the Foreign Guest Service Department. The staff here seemed very enthusiastic when they learned that Mr. Yang was a wealthy tycoon who had returned from Xiangjiang.

The young staff member took out a price list and handed it to Yang Ming to read.

From level 1 to level 12, there is a big difference in salary for different levels.

Li Keran 8 yuan.

These are iron rice bowls. After they are strictly graded, this is the fixed salary they receive every month.

This foreign guest service department is obviously aimed at foreign tourists.

In addition to these, there are also works by hundreds of painters.

His soul is from the future.

In fact, modern domestic painters such as Qi Baishi and Zhang Daqian are very famous now, but they are still not as famous as they will be in the future.

If you want to see it in the future, you can only come back later.

"Mainly the works of some modern painters."

In Yang Ming's previous life, he came here several times. However, it is now in 1978, and it is still very different from when he came in his previous life.

It can be said that everyone has works.

Yang Ming took it over and looked at it. It was clearly written on the price list.

Yang Ming and others came here, and Chen Qian and others took Yang Ming around.

"Mr. Yang, this is the price list of our souvenirs."

Wu Zuoren?

He is a famous painter in China, but in this era, not many people abroad have heard of him.

Unknowingly, Yang Ming came to the foreign guest service department of a national history museum.

"Director Chen, what souvenirs do you have?"

Inside, you can see bronzes, porcelain, Buddha statues, jades, calligraphy and paintings, modern art, collections donated by other countries, etc.

Is this where it is?

Now it only costs 8 yuan per square foot.

Wu Zuoren's rung is 5 yuan per square foot.

For teachers in colleges and universities, the salary for level 1 is 345 yuan, the salary for level 2 is 287.5 yuan, and the salary decreases until the salary for level 12 is 62 yuan.

.

...

The National Museum of History is the country’s highest historical, cultural and artistic palace and cultural living room.

The area here is huge.

In 1981, Xu Huachi, who returned from Hong Kong, spent just over 200,000 Hong Kong dollars to buy all the paintings in the Foreign Guest Service Department, including more than 9,000 calligraphy and paintings, including works by Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Li Keran, Wu Zuoren, Jiang Zhaohe and others.

Whether it is the wage standards for relevant personnel or the wage standards for workers.

For mechanical workers, the salary for level 1 is 33 yuan, the salary for level 2 is 38.6 yuan, and the salary increases to level 8, with a maximum of 99 yuan.

Among them, the first-level salary of ordinary teachers in workers' technical schools is 186.5 yuan, the second-level salary is 158.5 yuan, and the salary decreases until the 11th-level salary is 48.5 yuan.

Hearing Director Chen say that, Yang Ming suddenly remembered a shocking news.

Yang Ming and others probably read it once.

He knows very well that the works of domestic modern painters are not yet well-known and the prices are not high. In the next few decades, these works will basically cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of RMB.

Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi, and even Chen Zhenhua who were also visiting were very shocked.

Now, how could anyone else know except him?

When I saw Yang Ming looking around at the price list, I thought Mr. Yang found it too expensive.

Liu Bingsen 6 cents, 8 cents.

For those with low incomes or no income at all in cities, and most ordinary farmers in rural areas, their income may only be a few yuan a month.

These are densely packed price lists of domestic modern painters.

Liu Bingsen is a famous calligrapher. His works later became very popular among Asians, and now they only cost 6 cents or 8 cents per square foot.

Yang Ming is different.

Yang Ming knew that in the future, the price of these works would increase ten thousand times, or even one hundred thousand times.

After all, the works of those painters are really not cheap.

For Yang Ming, these works are really too cheap!
