Chapter 11 Part 2

It was still too early to have dinner . Zhou Tingsheng strolled along the

street of the arts district . There were many independent galleries down

the road, most were private galleries of photographers and painters of

some fame . These artists used the galleries to show and sell their artwork .

One could spend a whole day visiting these galleries . Ye Qiao’s reality show

was also filming on the street; once in a while, the filming crew would pa.s.s

by with cameras on their shoulders .

Zhou Tingsheng walked into one gallery .

He was born with an eye for paintings . It was because of this that his father

believed that he had the talent to learn painting and had asked many famed

artists to teach him . However, talent didn’t equal interest . Zhou Tingsheng

was never enthusiastic about studying painting . After he grew up, he seemed

to show more interest in artwork trade and was very good at investing and

promoting artwork . Members of the Zhou family all attributed the success of

Liang Zirao’s auction house to Zhou Tingsheng’s good taste and smart approach .

It was a pity that he wasn’t interested in money either . He was part of the Ferra

organization yet was hardly involved with the actual running of the business .

It seemed that there was nothing in this world that would ignite his pa.s.sion .

The gallery he had walked into had arranged the paintings in a loop; there was

only one direction to go, down a narrow pa.s.sageway . Paintings in white frames

hung on the wall along the way . Zhou Tingsheng walked for a while and finally

stopped in front of one painting . He turned to the salesperson who had been

following him: “Wrap this one up . ”

The salesperson was surprised that he didn’t even ask about the price . The

salesperson nodded and took a note: “Do you like any others?”

“I’ll see . ”

When he turned the corner, a group of people also came into the gallery .

Zheng Xishuo led Ye Qiao in, followed by the cameraman and some staff . The

production crew had already notified the shops along the street about the filming .

The manager of the gallery came out to welcome them in .

The mission of this section of the show was to purchase a particular item with a

limited amount of money . Every team had the same amount of money to spend

The mission of this section of the show was to purchase a particular item with a

limited amount of money . Every team had the same amount of money to spend

on an item which fit the term that had been a.s.signed to the group . Zheng Xishuo’s

group had the term “in the forest” and the item they needed to purchase was a painting .

Ye Qiao saw the painting in the salesperson’s hands which had just been taken

down from the wall . She asked: “Could I take a look at that?”

The salesperson showed the painting in her hands . The manager took the opportunity

to show the paintings behind her to the camera: “All these paintings here were

commissioned by a young artist, sold here exclusively . He has a very romantic

style with fresh colors . Like this one, <five>, is a tribute to Mr . Lin Feng</five>

<five>Mian; it’s very poetic . ”</five>

<five>Ye Qiao looked around, most of the paintings were in a similar style . However,</five>

<five>most of them were still lifes, only the one in the salesperson’s hands depicted</five>

<five>flying birds in a forest .</five>

<five>Zheng Xishuo also saw that none of the other paintings matched their criteria .</five>

<five>He broke into a big smile in front of the camera and asked: “How much is this painting?”</five>

<five>The salesperson obviously hesitated: “Every painting here is 5,000 RMB a piece .</five>

<five>However……” She glanced back, “A gentleman just purchased this one . ”</five>

<five>Zheng Xishuo turned to look at Ye Qiao: “Maybe we should go back to the other one?”</five>

<five>Ye Qiao frowned slightly . Because of her family background, she was subconsciously</five>

<five>adamant about her taste in paintings: “I feel this one is more fitting . ”</five>
