Chapter 629: Taking Turns Persuading Yang Chen to Donate

Yang Chen has made his words so clear that Mayor Wang is too embarrassed to continue to be tactful.

"The Preface to the Lanting Collection" is very valuable and has great research value, but it has nothing to do with him as the mayor.

What he cares about is the economic development of Haicheng City. Can this character promote the economic development of Haicheng City?

Obviously not!

But Yang Chen can!

Yang Chen's investment in Haicheng in the past two years has reached 800 billion, and the investment in his Xingchen Bay integrated commercial complex alone is as high as 500 billion, and the development of the surrounding economy it has driven is immeasurable.

No matter how stupid he is, he will never be stupid enough to have a conflict with Yang Chen.

"Haha... OK, then I will arrive on time in three days and I will never be late. Do you need my help coordinating the security work? The release of such a precious thing will definitely attract all kinds of people to visit. Be prepared in advance, To prevent accidents from happening and leaving us at a loss, Mayor Wang said with a smile.

The security inside the museum is handled by the Dragon King Hall, so there will definitely be no problems.

However, the museum will definitely be overcrowded by then, both inside and outside.

It is not enough to ensure the safety inside the museum, the outside must also be taken care of.

Therefore, Yang Chen was not polite to Mayor Wang and asked him to help say hello to the Haicheng City Bureau and help take care of the situation around the museum.

Mayor Wang: "Haha... no problem, leave this matter to me. I will communicate with the municipal bureau to ensure that I can provide you with the necessary security forces that day."

Yang Chen: "Haha... OK, I'll leave this matter to Mayor Wang."

Early the next morning, Yang Chen released the news through the Star Museum's official website, Weibo, Douyin and other accounts.

The Star Museum will exhibit the long-lost "Preface to the Lanting Collection" three days later from 8:00-20:00.

Just these 12 hours, if you miss it, you will never see it again.

Interested friends should arrange their time in advance and come to visit within the specified time.

Soon, Haicheng Times, Haicheng Life News, Haicheng Financial News, Haicheng News Channel and many other local mainstream media units in Haicheng forwarded relevant announcements.

The news quickly spread throughout Haicheng, and then quickly spread to the entire network and the country.

By lunch time, except for people in remote areas, almost everyone in Daxia knew about it.

At this time, netizens are talking about it.

"Is it true or false? Wasn't "The Preface to the Lanting Collection" lost a long time ago? How could it appear in Yang Chen's hands?"

"Is it the "Preface to the Lanting Collection" in our middle school text? The original work of Wang Xizhi?"

"What kind of bad luck did this Yang Chen have? He got the animal head, the Pope's crown and the gas scepter before, right? Now he got the "Preface to the Lanting Collection" again, I really don't know how to evaluate him .”

"Awesome, let him get another national treasure level cultural relic. It's developed."

"If it is an authentic work, how much can it be sold for? Can it be sold for 100 million?"

"One hundred million? Who are you looking down on? If it is confirmed to be authentic, even if the price is one billion, there will be a lot of people vying for it."

"Guess whether Yang Chen will donate it?"

"Donate some wool. Last time, the experts asked him to donate the gas scepter and other stuff, but he ignored them at all. In the end, he sold it for 1 billion, but no one was willing to pay this price. . Now the scepter is still in Yang Chen’s museum."

…

The news soon spread to the Archaeological Institute and other units.

After Li Zhenghai, the director of the Institute of Archeology, saw the news, he quickly called Yang Chen.

Just like the last time he asked for the papal crown and gas scepter, Li Zhenghai asked Yang Chen to donate the "Preface to the Lanting Anthology" for research.

Cultural relics of this level are more valuable for research than Yang Chen's private collection.

It is of great help to the study of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, pen, ink, paper and other aspects.

Yang Chen replied very rudely: "Why is Director Li making the same old habit again? You just touched your upper lip to your lower lip and asked me to donate the things. Do you think it's appropriate? I spent more than a month and returned it. You want me to donate something that I spent billions of dollars to buy? There are still many people in our country who cannot afford to buy a house or marry a wife. Why don’t you donate your house and wife to them? "

Li Zhenghai replied with some embarrassment: "It's not the same thing. My house and wife have no research value and cannot play a substantial role in the development of society and civilization. But the authentic work in your hand has such a role."

Yang Chen: "But I think the nature is the same. It's okay for you to be generous to others, but it's not okay for others to be generous to you. Isn't this a double standard? I'm still busy here and don't have time to talk to you. If you really come here and see Look, I welcome it. If you have other ideas, I advise you to just leave it alone. Hang up."

Li Zhenghai was embarrassed and angry.

But there was nothing he could do against Yang Chen.

If Yang Chen is unwilling to donate this calligraphy, he really has no choice.

Not long after, Wang Changhe, the president of the Calligraphy Association, also called Yang Chen.

Wang Changhe said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Yang. I am Wang Changhe, president of the Calligraphy Association. I am very happy to speak with you."

Yang Chen couldn't help but smile and said: "How come President Wang has my number?"

Wang Changhe: "Haha... Director Yang is a famous person now. It's not difficult to get your number. I heard that Director Yang is going to hold an exhibition of "The Preface to the Lanting Collection"?"

Yang Chen: "Yes. It will start at 8 a.m. and end at 8 p.m. the day after tomorrow. If President Wang has time, you are welcome to come and taste it together."

Wang Changhe: "Haha... If a treasure of this level appears in the world, I will definitely go and see it in person. However, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."

Yang Chen could probably guess what Wang Changhe wanted to say, so he just tried to persuade him to donate his things.

Yang Chen didn't want to waste time talking nonsense to him, so he said directly: "I think President Wang doesn't know whether he should say something, so it's best not to say it. Because if it's a good thing, you won't feel that way. If it's a bad thing, you won't feel it. Saying it will only make you and me look bad."

Wang Changhe was a little confused. This guy didn't play according to the routine.

However, the phone calls have been made, and what needs to be said must be said. Otherwise, wouldn’t the call be in vain?

Wang Changhe said with a smile: "Director Yang is really a humorous person. However, I think there are some things I should say out loud. After all, Director Yang is young. He may not have considered some issues carefully and lacks experience. I still need some advice from some veterans. Mr. Yang is a businessman, and he is doing big business. All over the world, there is one person who is doing big business, and there must be some things that are not easy to get. Things that are stated on the surface. If you have a good relationship with the relevant departments, these things can be treated as if they did not happen. If you have a bad relationship with the relevant departments, you will be held responsible for these things at any time. Do you think what I said is right, Director Yang?"
