Chapter 663 Museum

…

"Tell me about it specifically?" Guo Shouyun was also interested.

After Zhang Lei nodded, "Hanhua Capital's four funds are Guyu, which invests in jewelry materials, er frost, which invests in art, Xiaohan, which invests in precious wood, and Dahan, which invests in high-end wine. Except for the last wine fund, Dahan, the other three funds are here. Over four years, thousands of precious artworks, jewelry materials and wood have been accumulated. It would be too wasteful to leave them in the vault of Hanhua Holdings. So I plan to open a museum and take them out for exhibition , by the way, in exchange for a portion of the income.”

"Considering that although every piece of our stuff is fine, it is still far less than large museums with tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of collections. In addition, the museum is newly opened and has no popularity. Within a few years, I am afraid that Not only will you not make money, but you will lose money. So I have not implemented this idea.”

"But it's different now. With Tuniu Tourism Group, the museum can be added to the tourist route planned by Tuniu as an attraction. In this way, we can guarantee the maximum profit, and even if we are lucky, we may get it as soon as it opens. Profitable."

After listening, Guo Shouyun said with a smile: "You guy is really a good idea! Besides, you are not going to let go of any opportunity to make money!"

"Although a small and sophisticated museum can't achieve too high revenue, a few million Huaxia coins a year is also an income that cannot be missed. At least it can meet the salary expenses of the managers of the four funds."

After he finished speaking, his eyes turned to Guo Shouyun again, "Boss, don't you also like to collect? Besides, there is no shortage of "Bureau Post", Chenghua Doucai Tianzi Jar, Tang Dynasty' The great sage's relic'Fuxiqin, Dong Qichang's "Collection of Chrysanthemums and Looking at the Mountain" hand scrolls are such fine works. No, it should be said that the works of art that enter the boss's collection are fine works."

Over the years, Guo Shouyun has been collecting Chinese artworks. There are relatively few Western artworks. The reason is simple, two words: cheap.

An oil painting by a top Western modern painter can easily cost hundreds of millions of dollars. And the same Xu Beihong, Qi Baishi and other fine works are only four or five million Chinese coins. The collection of Dong Qichang's "Pickling Chrysanthemums and Looking at the Mountains" was the finale of last year's Jiade autumn auction of ancient paintings, and it was only 7.81 million Chinese coins.

In the porcelain market, the top-grade official kiln wares such as the Qing Dynasty Qianlong Ji-blue glaze painted gold-colored ruyi ear vase, and the Qing Dynasty Kangxi blue-and-white carmine red-entangled lotus-patterned vase are only one or two million. After ten years, none of the top Qing palace multicolored porcelains will cost less than 10 million yuan.

Therefore, every year Guo Shouyun spends 20 to 30 million US dollars from his own income to scan the domestic art market. Whether it is painting, calligraphy, porcelain, jade, or miscellaneous items, as long as it is a fine product, he will not refuse. Over the years, there are five or six hundred Chinese artworks accumulated in the Guo Family Manor in the Magic Capital and in the American Guo Family Manor's collection. And this is not counting the nearly 10,000 pieces of official kilns from the late Qing Dynasty, such as Jiaqing, Daoguang, Xianfeng, and Guangxu, that he received when he purchased the British Bevan Manor three years ago.

"Looks like you've got the idea of ​​my collection." Guo Shouyun said with a smile.

"It's better to be happy when you are alone. Instead of letting those precious artworks lie in the boss's collection library, it is better to take them out and make money."

Guo Shouyun collects works of art, and he likes it is only one aspect, and the most important thing is investment. Therefore, he has no objection to Zhang Lei's proposal.

"Where are you going to put the museum?"

"No. 20 Huqiu Road, Magic Capital!"

"The Bund?"

After Zhang Lei nodded, "It was originally the 'Asian Cultural Association Building' built by the British in 1932. The style is a combination of east and west, with five floors up and down, with an internal construction area of ​​about 9,587 square meters. It used to be one of the earliest museums in China. The magic capital The location of the museum. In 1952, the museum was closed, and its 20,328 natural specimens, 6,663 historical relics and art collections accumulated over the years constitute the collection foundation of today's Magic City Museum of Natural History and Magic City Museum; its library has more than 14,000 volumes. Books in both Chinese and Western languages ​​have been incorporated into the Catholic Library in Xujiahui and become a special collection of the Magic Capital Library."

"The old building on the Bund, plus it was originally a museum!" Guo Shouyun nodded, "That's right. ... However, the building area is less than 10,000 square meters, isn't it too small?"

"If it's just works of art invested by Hanhua, the exhibition area of ​​nearly 10,000 square meters is enough. If the boss is willing to put his own collections in, I can even connect the building of China Industrial Bank, Meifeng, Abe and Yuanmingyuan next to it. Apartment, YWCA Building, Hami Building, Xiejin Building, Lanxin Building, Zhenguang Building, Guangxue Building, covering an area of ​​16,900 square meters, with a construction area of ​​115,000 square meters, all 11 modern buildings in Block 2 of Bundyuan are rented down."

"It seems that you have negotiated a big project in the past few days when I was not in the capital?" Guo Shouyun heard Zhang Lei's overtones.

"Magic City is in the process of repairing the Bundyuan! It is divided into two phases. The first phase is mainly No. 33 Bundyuan, which is the main body and ancillary buildings of the former British Consulate. The second phase is 'Yuanmingyuan Road - South Suzhou Road - Huqiu Road - North ~Jingdong Road' enclosed, covers an area of ​​16,900 square meters, including the Industrial Bank of China Building, Meifeng & Co., Abe & Co., Yuanmingyuan Apartment, YWCA Building, Hami Building, Xiejin Building, Lanxin Building, Zhenguang Building, The Bundyuan No. 2 project including 11 buildings including the Guangxue Building; and the Yifeng Yangxing Building, an excellent historical building with an area of ​​6,480 square meters and a total construction area of ​​29,025 square meters after renovation. The representative project of No. 3 on the Bund; finally, the new Plaza Hotel by the owner is the No. 4 project on the Bund.”

"New Huangpu Group, the developer of the Bundyuan project, originally planned to complete the first phase of development and start the second phase of development in 2005. But the Plaza Hotel project invested by the boss made the whole plan ahead of schedule. So New Huangpu Group has The plan to develop the second phase of the project ahead of schedule, but due to the state's suppression of the real estate industry and the tightening of real estate loans, the funds originally used for the second phase of the Bundyuan project have been delayed, so the New Huangpu Group came to us. Originally they We only planned to take out a loan, but Hanhua's asset appraisal department gave a high evaluation of the overall Bundyuan project and was very optimistic about its future. We began to negotiate with the New Huangpu Group, and finally agreed to jointly develop the second phase of the Bundyuan. Hanhua Investment 1.5 billion Chinese currency, accounting for 49% of the Bundyuan No. 2 and No. 3 projects."

"Haha, old Zhang! Your vision is still so original, not bad. In the future, the 49% interest in the second phase of the Bund Yuan will be the core asset of Hanhua Holdings, and no one will sell it!" Guo Shouyun said happily.

After winning the Bund Yuan No. 4 project to build a new Plaza Hotel and renting the annex building of the British Consulate to open the first physical store of Kylin Restaurant, Guo Shouyun also planned to see if he could get some benefits from it. But what happened next to the Delong Group attracted almost all of his attention. The Bund source was forgotten by him. Now that Zhang Lei's old story is brought up again, it has given him a big surprise.

"The boss doesn't blame me for making an opinion!"

Guo Shouyun waved his hand, "I said that you are in charge of the specific operations of Hanhua Holdings, and I only take care of corporate strategy and financial supervision."

After Zhang Lei nodded with a smile, "The art that you have collected, boss...?"

"For you, for you! I will give you Huaxia and the United States, including the Huaxia artworks placed in the Guo Family Manor in the UK. In addition, some artworks from Europe, the United States and other parts of the world, as long as they are not restricted from exporting, will be handed over to you. For your museum exhibit!"

"Thank you boss for making it happen."

"Don't be too happy. Public is public, private is private. I have to share the revenue of the museum. But I don't want too much. At that time, it will be calculated as a percentage based on the number of artworks I provide, from the net profit. Just leave it to me."

After experiencing the investment in Yunnan Province, he is now seriously short of funds. The original source of profit of the museum's income, which belongs to the level of 'mosquito legs', can not be let go now.

Zhang Lei nodded and agreed.

He understands that Guo Shouyun's collection must be more abundant than that of Hanhua Holdings. With this part of the art, can it create greater influence, attract more tourists, and generate more income. This is a mutually beneficial thing.

"Boss, someone is asking to see you outside!"

At this moment, Wang Jue walked in~www.novelbuddy.com~Who? "

"They claimed to be technical experts of the 3D Mining Research Institute, and they came from Lop Nur, Xinjiang."

"Technical expert of 3D Mining Research Institute?" Guo Shouyun asked in surprise.

"After Delong won the potash development project in Lop Nur, Tang Wanxin hired Li Hao, a well-known domestic potash chemical expert and minister of chemical industry, in 2000, as the deputy dean of Sha Design Institute, to take over the responsibility. The head of the potash project. This person has served as the head of the Qing-Hai potash project for 12 years, and at the age of 38, he was appointed as the Minister of Chemical Industry ~ Vice President of the Sha Design and Research Institute. The elites of the young Zhuang faction. Later, under his leadership and the efforts of Tang Wanxin, a large number of potash experts, including Tang Zhongfan, Liu Chuanfu, Tan Changjing, etc., joined the Lop Nur project. These young strong factions in the field of potash research in China formed the Sunway Mining Potash Research Institute The main body." Zhang Lei, who has been researching Delong Group's data for more than three months, is undoubtedly more familiar with Delong's assets than Guo Shouyun.

After a pause, Zhang Lei turned his head and continued: "They have traveled thousands of miles from Xinjiang to Lop Nor, most of them for the potash project!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, and after a little pondering, "Where are they now?"

"I'm still waiting outside the door." Wang Jue replied.

"Take them to the living room below."

"Yes!"

"Old Zhang, you also go down with me to see!"

Zhang Lei nodded and followed Guo Shouyun out of the reception room.
