Chapter 124 Tang Wenyuan

The person standing next to Ye Tian's booth was dressed in Tang clothes with gray hair. The spirited old man,

Although the old man's figure is not tall, only more than 1.7 meters, standing there, he has a tendency to stay in the upper position for a long time.

Looking at the old man from afar, Ye Tian's eyes narrowed slightly. This is what is said to be rich and noble in his face. It seems that this person must be a rich man, far from comparable to these rich people in the field.

The two people next to the old man, one in his early forties, are elegant, wearing an old-fashioned robe, and dressed a little innovatively. Standing beside the old man is also very eye-catching.

As for the other person, he is a burly man. He doesn't seem to be interested in the objects in the booth. A pair of divine eyes look at the people who pass by from time to time, and his identity should be a bodyguard.

After the morning incident, the collectors or bosses in the venue all knew that the jade gourds in Ye Tian's booth were only sold, and the carving was poor, so no one stopped here, and the three people stood there was quite conspicuous.

Seeing Ye Tian and others go straight to the edge of the booth, the old man and middle-aged people who were talking stopped and looked at the Wei Hongjun with inquiring eyes. In their opinion, the Wei Hongjun should be the owner of the jade gourd.

"How many, is this yours?" The old man's voice was very loud, but with a little Cantonese accent.

Wei Hongjun's eyesight was not bad. At a glance, he recognized that these people were mainly the old man. He immediately said, "Old sir, are you interested in this thing?"

"I'm a little interested..."

The old man nodded and pointed to the jade gourd in the booth and said, "I don't know if you can take it out and show it for me first?"

"This..."

Wei Hongjun looked at Ye Tian when he heard the words. It was not his, and he had no right to make the decision.

"Of course, please feel free to read..."

Ye Tian smiled, took out the key and opened the glass cabinet, but when he took out the jade gourd, he did not give it to the old man, but directly handed it to the middle-aged man beside him.

"What?"

Ye Tian's behavior made the old man and the middle-aged man's eyes look a little surprised at the same time. Then the old man nodded gently, and the middle-aged man reached out and took the jade gourd.

"Mr. Tang? Why are you here? Let me find it for a while"

Just as the middle-aged man was about to take a looked at the object in his hand, a group of people suddenly came to them. The leader was actually a foreigner with white temples, but he spoke fluent Chinese.

"George, thank you for your invitation. I'm late, so I'll turn around by myself first"

Seeing the foreigner in his fifties, the old man's unsmiling face also showed a smile, but the body standing there did not move at all, and he stretched out a hand and shook it with the other party.

George's arrogant attitude towards the old man was taken for granted, and he was a little flattered by the old man's act of stretching out his hand first. He quickly held the old man's right hand with both hands and said, "Mr. Tang, you can come. It really makes this place glorious

..."

George knows in his heart that he is just the head of Asian affairs of the auction house, and the old man is super brand-fashioned who can directly talk to the boss, and the identities of the two are not at the same level at all.

Although George had long known that the old man in front of him would be in Beijing these days, and the post had been sent, he did not expect the other party to come. He just deliberately told the person at the door to inform him immediately if he saw someone holding this post.

It's just that George and some staff also went to dinner just now. When he received the news, the old man had already entered the scene, so he took several staff to look for it.

"Who is the old man? Do you ignore this foreigner's love?

"Yes, the foreigner is the Asian president of the auction house. Why does he look like he is flatting the old man?"

"I haven't seen this old man. He should not be in our Beijing circle. I'm afraid he's a river dragon, right?"

Because the old people and the middle-aged people around them were dressed in old-fashioned clothes, which were originally quite eye-catching. As soon as George and others came over, they attracted the attention of many people in the exhibition hall. Some people who like to watch the fun gathered around one after another.

"1 young man, let's talk in another place?"

Seeing everyone gathered around, the old man called Mr. Tang frowned slightly, looked at Ye Tian and said, from the behavior of the Red Army just now, the old man could naturally see who the owner of this jade was.

"Okay" Ye Tian nodded. His jade is not an antique, and it has nothing to do with the people here in the exhibition hall. Otherwise, no one would have been interested in the morning.

Hearing Ye Tian's promise, the old man turned his face to George and said, "George, help me find a room. Be quiet..." "Okay, Mr. Tang, the auction house will meet all your needs." After hearing the old man's words, George quickly agreed and took a step ahead and led the way. .

"Mr. Tang? Which one is this?

"I know all the well-known collectors surnamed Tang in China. It seems that they don't have this one?"

As soon as Ye Tian and others left, the onlookers became a sensation and guessed the identity of the old man one by one.

You know, as the Asian president of this internationally renowned auction agency, George just said a few words at the beginning of the event. He hasn't seen anyone he received in person. There are absolutely a lot of people who can make him so respectful.

"Does it have to be domestic? I heard the man speak with a little Cantonese accent, maybe it's from Hong Kong..." A voice sounded in the hall, but it suddenly quieted the noisy exhibition hall.

"Hong Kong, surnamed Tang? Could it be Tang Wenyuan?

"It's him. It must be Hua. I've seen his photos in the magazine"

"Good boy, is he the nose? No wonder George looks flattful. It's not in vain today..."

The name Tang Wenyuan seems to have a magic power, which makes those people in the field who can also be famous in 49 cities blush and talk about it one by one.

"Who is Tang Wenyuan? I haven't heard of this name?"

On today's occasion, there are not only businessmen, but also antique dealers or collectors. There are also many people who have never heard of Tang Wenyuan's name.

"Brother, Tang Wen has never heard of it. Let me tell you, he is a legend"

There are many good teachers in the field. At the moment, they began to explain, as if they knew that Tang Wenyuan's deeds were very revealing.

Tang Wenyuan was born in Guangdong in the 1920s. His family was very poor. When he was just 20 years old in the 1940s, he went to Hong Kong with his newlywed wife.

At that time, Hong Kong was not as prosperous as it is now. It has just experienced the Anti-Japanese War, but it seems to be a little depressed, and there are many unemployed people. As a young man, it is imaginable that it is difficult to work there.

However, Tang Wenyuan is particularly good at enduring hardships. Starting with some salesmen of household goods, he has secretly learned a lot of sales experience.

After coming to Hong Kong for two years, Tang Wenyuan used the accumulated tens of thousands of yuan to build a small workshop-style factory at home, specializing in the production of some plastic daily necessities.

Due to the cheap price and good quality, and Tang Wenyuan has accumulated a lot of customers in the past few years, the scale of his small workshop has also expanded step by step.

In the 1960s and 1970s, with the real estate depression in Hong Kong, Tang Wenyuan, who had become the king of department stores, entered the real estate industry in one fell swoop, thus becoming one of the super-rich on Hong Kong Island.

Up to now, the industry of Tang's Group has spread to real estate, clothing, shipping, department stores and other industries. Tang Wenyuan has also been awarded the title of the Queen of England as a knight and a peace gentleman in Hong Kong, and is firmly in the top 10 in the Chinese rich circle.

Not only that, Tang Wenyuan is also extremely patriotic. He is a member of the preparatory committee for the return of Hong Kong to related matters. Over the years, he has gradually developed his business to the mainland and belongs to the kind of people who are also very influential in China.

It can be said that Tang Wenyuan's current status is definitely a person who can directly talk to the leader of a country. It is reasonable to be the sensation caused by his appearance here.

"Strange, is there really something wrong with the jade gourd? It shouldn't be. Although the jade quality is good, it is a new worker, and the craftsmanship is still very poor..."

After hearing the identity of Mr. Tang, Long Fei in the crowd frowned. He could see that Mr. Tang seemed to be very careful about the jade gourd.

Long Fei is an a jade player. When he saw the gourd just now, he always had an indescribable feeling. If Ye Tian hadn't refused to sell it, he would have bought it even if he had won five or six thousand.

"Forget it, ask Lao Wei later to see what's going on." Everyone had left, and it was useless to stay here. Long Fei shook his head and continued to wander around the exhibition hall.

Under the leadership of George, Ye Tian and his party entered the lounge in the corner of the exhibition hall. In the process, George has always been very respectful, and even smiled a lot to Ye Tian and others.

You should know that Tang Wenyuan is not only a businessman, but also a collector. He is especially particular about the ancient art lost abroad. In recent years, he has gone out at least hundreds of millions of yuan in their auction house.

So after being offered tea, George did not leave. At the level of a guest like Tang Wenyuan, he must accompany him all the way.

Tang Wenyuan didn't say much about George's behavior. When the waiter who served tea and poured water went out, he said to the middle-aged man who had been holding the jade gourd in the palm of his hand, "Jin Ming, there are no outsiders. Take a look..."
