When the Doctor saw Wu Di paying attention, he listened to a few words and said:

"Fifth brother, it seems that the gallery is going to withdraw those Chinese paintings and replace them with several new works. They happened to be seen by international students selling paintings. They said that the contract time has not yet come..."

Wu Di frowned, walked over, and asked at a young man with a bearded and full of grief and anger::

"Are you the author of these paintings?"

The man nodded, and there was an excitement in his eyes to see his fellow villagers.

"The contract will expire next day, and they will take my stand today. Isn't this an obvious bullying?"

"Haha, it's okay. I've just seen those paintings of you. It's not bad. If you ask them to take them off the shelves, I'll buy them later and get them to the store door. They'll be so angry! Hahaha."

Wu Di finally got into a reluctance to bully others to not understand his words, and his mouth was so happy that he almost couldn't close.

When the young man heard this, his eyes lit up and finally met someone he appreciated! If he hadn't been about to stop, he wouldn't have been selling these paintings. These are his fine works that he has been practicing painting for twenty years and is ready to keep them for his collection in the future!

Shui Tianfeng was originally a top student in a calligraphy and painting academy in China, but because his painting style was not popular with his mentors, he saw that those who were obviously worse than him were often recommended to go out to exhibitions and win awards. He was angry and went abroad, hoping to find a day to stand out in this so-called fair world. However, even ink paintings that incorporate a little Western techniques are still ink paintings. It is probably more difficult to make a name for themselves here than in China!

It's just a pity that when he realized this, he was overwhelmed and could not even afford a plane ticket to return to China. He was embarrassed to extend his hand to his parents who had already learned to paint in order to support him...

"You wait a moment, I'll look at these paintings."

Wu Di watched the clerk hang some unsigned oil paintings in the vacant place while they were chatting. He smiled slightly and was about to leave the store, but suddenly his eyes were attracted by a still life painting.

This is a still life painting of apples. The painter carefully arranged tilted apple baskets and wine bottles on the picture, scattering other apples between the peaks formed by the tablecloth, and a plate containing small pastries placed on the back of the table.

The entire picture has a strong sense of substance, balanced composition and reasonable structure, giving people a solemn, thick, constant and lasting feeling.

Could this be Cézanne's "Still Life Apple Basket"? How could it be displayed in this corner? When Wu Di saw the clerk label it as a price tag, he could hardly believe his eyes. Such a world-famous fine work actually costs 5,000 euros! Did he write less than ten thousand words? Oh, I got it wrong, this is not China, there is no ten thousand words...

"Please help me put away this painting, Doctor, go pay the bill, remember to ask for the sales certificate."

Wu Di didn't even bother to use the Book of Heaven to verify it, so he let the Doctor Cat pay the bill and leave. Such works were exposed to people at this price, even if it was just one second extra, it might lead to unknowable consequences.

The clerk was very happy. These paintings were privately entrusted by a friend of his. He promised the manager some benefits. Catherine, who was as fat as a pig, acquiesced to him to squeeze out the two days of water Tianfeng. Unexpectedly, this young man not only settled the poor Chinese painter, but also looked at the most expensive one among them when he just hung the paintings on them for less than a minute! This inconspicuous young man turned out to be an elegant rich man from China! He regretted it a little, and had already known it would have been higher...

"Sir, why don't you look at these pictures again. Look at the woman in this portrait, she is quiet and beautiful, look at this picture again..."

Wu Di saw a few people not far away paying attention to the movement here and frequently looked at them. He seemed to be coming soon and said impatiently:

"Help me put them away, I want them all."

"Oh my goodness, sir, your generosity is more touching than the sun in that day, it's really..."

As he spoke, he quickly rolled up several paintings, put them in the paint tubes that were placed on one side and had not had time to pack them, and handed them to the military advisor who was waiting, and took the dorm to pay the bill.

"Wait... Boss, that painting should be at the Chicago Art Institute now. Although this one looks pretty good, five thousand is really expensive..."

When Shui Tianfeng saw Wu Di, he took down the oil paintings with a total price of more than 20,000 euros. He wanted to stop them but was afraid that he would be angry, so he didn't even want his paintings... At this moment, he saw that the deal was about to be completed. In a hurry, he could no longer care about it. He grabbed the Doctor and whispered the words in Wu Di's ear.

Wu Di nodded with a smile. This person is not bad, it's not a pity that he helped him just now. He signaled the Doctor to come and pay the bill, then took the paint tube handed to him by the military advisor, but he didn't even open it. He fiddled with it casually and returned it back.

That's right, the "Still Life Apple Basket" contained here may not be called this name, it is indeed a work of Paul Cezanne! This Paul Cezanne is not the same name and surname, but is really the late Impressionist master who was called "the father of modern art" or "the father of modern painting" by modern Western painters. Paul Cezanne, a famous French painter who has been praised as the "father of art nouveau" since the end of the 19th century!

Every painter has a subject that he likes or is good at, and he will never leave only one work on this subject. But for some reason, one of these works of the same subject will be praised by some critics, which will gradually lead to a situation where even works of the same painter that are similar in terms of subject matter, composition, and artistic conception will also have a huge gap in price. For some people who don’t know these painters very well, they think that there should be only one such subject, and the rest of the same is a fake!

Shui Tianfeng was obviously trapped in such a misunderstanding. Wu Di looked at this somewhat down-and-out peer and decided to test him again.

"I heard that Van Gogh loved sunflowers and drew dozens of related subjects in his life, but there were more than a dozen of them that were passed down from generation to generation..."

Shui Tianfeng suddenly realized that this was a sister piece! His eyes looked at Wu Di were full of disbelief. What did this young man who looked younger than him do just now? A painting worth at least 50 million euros, no, it is likely that Cezanne's "Still Life Apple Basket" was won by him for 5,000 euros for 5,000 euros! Is this possible? He only took a look and confirmed that the author of the painting was Cezanne? But he has been learning to paint for twenty years, and not only saw it earlier than him, but also looked at it for more than one glance, but he was indifferent?

"Eighty million euros? It shouldn't be that much, right? But fifty million euros should be a fair price."

Shui Tianfeng hesitated for a moment and said:

"Do you know one of Paul Cézanne's most beloved works, "The Card Player"?"

"I know, Cézanne has painted 5 "The Card Player". Except for one that was privately collected by the Greek ship king George Amy Belix, the other four are all collected in major museums around the world, such as the Orsay Museum in Paris, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. What's wrong?"

"I heard that someone has been asking for the ship king's painting in private recently. Do you know how much it is?"

"It is said that his collection is considered the "darkest" painting in Cezanne's "Playing Cards" series. I remember that Gary Tinterro, the director of the Houston Gallery, once commented, "This painting has taken the most fundamental appearance after omitting unnecessary elements from the previous paintings." The painting has been constantly seeking buyers over the past few decades. Why? Is it finally over 100 million this time?"

"Over 100 million? This should be the price in the past few years. I heard that the buyer this time was the royal family of Qatar, with a price of up to 150 million pounds! But the ship king still did not agree to sell it!"

"One 50 million? Or pounds? How is this possible..."

"This news has basically been confirmed. It is said that the Qatar royal family has put aside their words. If the ship king is interested in selling it, they can contact them directly and discuss the price again. If the painting just now is really a work by Cezanne, haha, 80 million pounds may not be sold, 80 million euros should be fine, right?"

Shui Tianfeng had no smile in his heep. He said so many things, but he still did not get rid of his nervousness. Eighty million euros, what is this concept? This number has exceeded the limit he imagined, because he remembered a sentence, a sentence his best friend once said to him. If there is eight million yuan, based on his current level, he can find someone to easily make him famous as a famous second-tier new painter in China!

Eight million yuan, eight hundred million euros... He shook his head sadly. These five hard-working crystals could sell for 5,000 euros, which was enough for him to return to China. With the eyes of this boss, these paintings were not considered insulting in his hands.

"Let's go, I think you should be a second-rate player in China. Why do you have to go here to suffer this?"

Wu Di was in a good mood and had such a huge achievement when he took action for the first time. It can be seen as the luck brought to him by this young man. If it was not troublesome, he would not mind helping him.

"It is difficult to find a market for my style in China. My teachers and fellow disciples look down on me! I didn't expect it to be even more difficult to get through abroad, but I will not give up on this path! Thank you, I can buy these five works at once. I am going to return to China. If I have the fate, I think we will meet again."

Shui Tianfeng's expression was initially full of dullness and confusion, but gradually, with the high tone of his tone, his spirit became excited. In the end, he seemed to have gotten rid of all negative emotions.

Wu Di nodded secretly, took out a business card and handed it to him.
