"Mr. Liu, are you satisfied with this room? If you need anything, just ask.

We will try our best to satisfy whatever we can." Zhang Junping smiled and greeted Liu Debing.

"Very good, this room is very good! I said to Zhang Xiaoyou, there is no need to spend so much money, just find an ordinary hotel to stay.

I heard this is still a five-star hotel?

Isn’t the room I’m staying in expensive?”

"It's not expensive. We signed a cooperation agreement with Hilton Hotel and they gave us the best price.

Just stay here with peace of mind, and if you really feel bad about it, create a few more works for us." Zhang Junping said jokingly.

"Brother Yang, I didn't bother to say hello to you at the airport just now.

I was thinking of going to your room later!" Zhang Junping said hello to Yang Shankui again.

Yang Shankui, as a representative figure of Beijing style wood carving, was naturally invited to participate in this traveling exhibition.

"We brothers, we still need to be so polite." Yang Shankui said with a smile.

Zhang Junping chatted with Liu Deying and others for a while, made an appointment to pick up Feng Yan in the evening, and then said goodbye and left.

In fact, the reception banquet is on the itinerary of the touring exhibition.

However, Chinese people pay attention to face. Zhang Junping visited various old artists and craftsmen one by one. This is a matter of face.

After visiting representatives from various industries, Zhang Junping returned to the hall downstairs.

Sit on the sofa to rest, close your eyes and relax.…

"Why, you feel tired?" Chen Lijun sat next to Zhang Junping and asked with concern.

"It's not bad! I feel that socializing with sophisticated people is more tiring than my creative work." Zhang Junping shook his head and smiled without opening his eyes.

"That's for sure. It takes more effort to be human and sophisticated. Do you want me to give you a squeeze?" Chen Lijun smiled understandingly.

"Farewell! Don't cause trouble for yourself in public." Zhang Junping refused with a smile.

"Manager!" Lou Xinying came over and greeted Zhang Junping.

"It seems that Mr. Lu has never competed with you." Zhang Junping closed his eyes and said to Lou Xinying with a smile.

"Mr. Lu asked me to do this!" Lou Xinying said with a smile.

The editors-in-chief of the two magazines could not both come, so Zhang Junping asked them to leave one of them at home to look after the house, and he would decide who would come.

So, Lou Xinying led the press group and followed the arts and crafts delegation to Paris.

When we hold a touring exhibition of traditional Chinese arts and crafts, we naturally need to report it vigorously.

The foreign media were left to George Fairborn and his group, and domestic propaganda was handled by themselves.

Lou Xinying's task is to coordinate reporters from China and deliver news to the country at any time for publicity and reporting.

In the evening, Zhang Junping hosted a banquet for everyone in the banquet hall of the Hilton Hotel.

"Everyone, since we are in a foreign country, the hotel we are staying in does not have Chinese food, so we can only entertain you in a buffet style.

Please forgive me for any shortcomings." Zhang Junping stood on the rostrum, took the microphone and made some opening remarks.

“Today, in addition to cleaning up the trouble for everyone, I also want to share some good news with you.

That is, currently, gallery art stores have successfully opened stores in five countries.

The sales volume of the Paris store alone in twenty days has reached 30 million French francs."

Zhang Junping's words immediately aroused everyone's interest.

We sold more than 30 million French francs in twenty days. Darling, how much is this?

Many people fantasize in their minds about how much their works will sell for and how much money they will get.

"Okay, I won't say any more. I wish you all good food, drink and fun."

The buffet-style banquet is more popular with everyone.

Everyone can chat casually and hang out with wine glasses.

If you are hungry, there are a long list of delicacies placed against the walls on both sides of the banquet hall.

King crab the size of a washbasin, giant lobster two feet long, and tuna sashimi.

Various desserts, fruit and vegetable salads.

You can choose from red wine, white wine, and beer.

However, not many people chose beer, and most people followed the local customs and chose red wine.

In addition to various delicacies and drinks, Zhang Junping also invited Chinese students studying in Paris to attend the reception banquet.

These Chinese students brought many exotic beauties to attend the reception banquet.

In the evening, the guests and hosts had a great time.

The next day, Zhang Junping arranged for the staff to take the artists out in batches.

Go to the Paris School of Art for a friendly exchange.

Zhang Junping and his security personnel escorted the artwork to the Villepinte Exhibition Hall in the northern suburbs of Paris.

The first stop of the touring exhibition of Chinese traditional arts and crafts was held at the Villepinte Exhibition Hall in the northern suburbs of Paris.…

Tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the traveling exhibition. Zhang Junping came over today to check on the situation.

"George, how are the arrangements going? Have the invitations been sent out?" Zhang Junping found George Fairburn and asked.

"It's been sent out! Don't worry! I can't guarantee how popular it will be in other cities.

However, in Paris, the first stop of the traveling exhibition will definitely hit the ground running.

But, dear Zhang! Don’t forget your promise.”

"Don't forget, the copies are already prepared and you can take them away at any time.

As long as this first traveling exhibition is done well, I guarantee that I will provide you with ten imitation oil paintings every year." Zhang Junping said with a smile.

According to the previous agreement, the concept of imitating oil paintings was bought out by George Fairburn and others.

Zhang Junping cannot sell imitation oil paintings to other people, not even as gifts.

The price is naturally to help Zhang Junping handle various matters for the touring exhibition.

In fact, to put it bluntly, what George Fairburn and others do is the work of an exhibition company.

"I'm still a little worried!" When the end came, Zhang Junping was a little worried about gains and losses.

Even for the success of the touring exhibition, Zhang Junping did not hesitate to spend money to hire a lot of people.

Tomorrow's task for these agents is to enhance the atmosphere and purchase various works of art.

The art purchased today will appear in major auction houses soon.

Conduct a second round of speculation through the auction house.

After the auction is over, there will naturally be a third round of speculation, which is the business of the major auction houses.

For the sake of business, the auction house will conduct a lot of publicity before and after each auction.

A certain antique and a certain piece of art fetched sky-high prices.

A certain piece of art was purchased by a certain big collector for tens of millions.

The art market is such a routine.

The more I come into contact with art dealers from various countries, the more I know how deep this industry is.

"My dear friend, you have to believe me, my team is professional in exhibitions.

After three days of exhibition, you will definitely leave satisfied." George Fairburn comforted him with a smile.

At this point, Zhang Junping can only choose to believe it.

Stare and arrange the artwork in person.

In a blink of an eye, the day came for the opening of the touring exhibition.

Early in the morning, the Hilton Hotel bus took a group of artists to the Convention and Exhibition Center.

In addition to the art exhibition area, there is also an on-site creation area.

Each artist has his or her own exhibition area.

In addition to your own artwork, the display area also has a painting or a workbench.

The painting and workbench are for them to create on-site.

For the opening ceremony, Zhang Junping still chose the lion dance performance and climbed high to pick green flowers.

After a lively and exciting lion dance performance, the touring exhibition officially opened.

Many visitors entered the convention and exhibition center one after another.

No matter whether these tourists who come to visit the exhibition are real or fake, there are many people and it is very lively.
