2006 was the year when the Chinese collection market created myths. Just after New Year's Day, the 3,000-year-old Western Zhou bronze ware Zhou Yike auctioned by Zhonghai Chongyuan for more than 26 million yuan.

China is big, everything is big, and the market is big. The auction market has always been closely linked to the bribery and money laundering industries. It is no exception in China. However, China's increasingly developing auction market is more related to investment.

In 2000, Xu Beihong's "Yugong Moving Mountain" was auctioned online at Jiade for only 2.5 million yuan, but it was sold at 33 million yuan in 2006.

In fact, there is no essential difference between marketing and operations in the Chinese auction market and speculation of Pu'er and redwood. As long as the economy continues to develop and someone can take over, the price can be speculated upwards one after another until the economy is sluggish and a collapsed economic crisis occurs, the bubble will disappear, and whoever takes over will lose all his money in the end.

There is still a difference between Beethoven's manuscripts and Pu'er and mahogany. There are few professional speculators among those who are interested in this manuscript. After all, there is a strong heritage and a strong artistic atmosphere, as well as a feeling of admiration for outstanding geniuses. People who are willing to pay a certain price for this manuscript are mostly of certain artistic literacy and interest, and the motivation for bidding is relatively high due to the possibility of collection.

The Italian Music and Art Exhibition and Auction were held at the China Overseas Art Exhibition Center. In addition to the world's most expensive instrument "Madam Tanna" violin, there is also an Italian national treasure, Paganini's violin "Cannin" during his lifetime.

"Madam Tanna" was made by Strativalli in 1699 and was sold at an auction in New York in 2005 for a high price of more than two million US dollars. It is by far the most expensive instrument in the world.

As for the "cannon", it is collected by the Italian National Museum and is a priceless treasure and cannot appear in the auction. This time it is just an invitation exhibition. The organizer obviously has a lot of connections in Italy... The difficulty is like the public relations China sends giant pandas out for exhibitions.

"The Great Fugue is Beethoven's work in 1826. Except for some descriptions in a catalog of Beethoven's works in 1890, no scholar who studies Beethoven has seen or contacted with this work. Are you sure it is the authentic one?"

When she walked into the art exhibition center, Qin Meiwu looked around her exhibits casually. She had no hobby of collecting. She just had a natural preference for Beethoven's works. Being able to get a manuscript from her is enough to comfort her, which is a commemoration of her efforts and sweat that she had pursued on the musical road.

Hua Zhengyi followed Qin Meiwu closely and entered Qin Jing's presidential office as she wished. Although she could not access the most core data, Hua Zhengyi already understood that she knew too little about Anxiu Trading Company, which means that the man who fell in love with her could bring her far more than she imagined.

Looking at the cold and indifferent woman in front of her, Hua Zhengyi knew very well about the gap between herself and her. It was precisely because of this gap that Hua Zhengyi was more eager to narrow it.

If I could marry Qin Jing... could I casually appreciate these hundreds of thousands or even millions of artworks with this woman in hand, and I didn't care about their price?

Hua Zhengyi is an ambitious woman. Human ambitions always expand with her status and achievements. Contentment? If humans know how to be content, the world may still be in the Stone Age.

"Mr. Qin will arrive later. I think such an auction should not be used to create a gimmick." Hua Zhengyi replied carefully.

"Do you think?" Qin Meiwu turned around and looked at Hua Zhengyi coldly.

Facing those emotions-free eyes, Hua Zhengyi felt a chill behind her and hurriedly said, "Mr. Qin has confirmed it, it's true."

Qin Meiwu nodded. She just came for the manuscript. She was not very interested in other things. Qin Meiwu has always been determined to win what she wanted.

As for the young woman behind her... Qin Meiwu's lips curled slightly, and a cold smile appeared. Women always thought that they wanted something, and then naturally gave up other things for these things. After they really got what they wanted, after a brief satisfaction, there was endless emptiness, and then they began to miss, began to resent, and began to pursue the so-called true satisfaction of the soul.

"The more experiences and the richer the feelings, the less worthy of sympathy. Their sorrow is probably because they suffer themselves, they are not satisfied, and they have too much greed. They always feel that they cannot get married as ordinary people, and they will eventually hurt others. The same is true for Lu Xiaoman, Lin Huiyin, even Zhang Ailing, Qiong Yao, etc.." Qin Meiwu turned around and said to Hua Zhengyi.

"What?" Hua Zhengyi took a step back with guilt, but she didn't understand why Qin Meiwu suddenly said this.

"I just hope you figure out what you want..." Qin Meiwu sighed, "A few days ago, I saw you and your ex-boyfriend arguing. When you left, he squatted on the ground, hugged his head and cried bitterly."

"Madam...I..." Hua Zhengyi didn't expect to be seen by Qin Meiwu. Sure enough, he would only cause trouble to himself. Thinking of this, Hua Zhengyi was angry and anxious. She didn't want to lose the opportunity now. Such an opportunity was too luxurious and she couldn't afford to waste it at all.

"It's nothing. One day, you have what you want... You will definitely miss your ex-boy. Don't be sad at that time. Think that this is a toss of fate, but it's just your own choice." Qin Meiwu smiled slightly, with a light smile in her bright eyes, and her long eyelashes were raised like a crescent moon hanging. "My brother didn't know that after you became the full-time secretary of the president's office, you also went to a hotel with your ex-boyfriend twice, right?"

Hua Zhengyi was shocked and frightened, "You...how did you know!"

"It's okay, I will keep it secret for you." Qin Meiwu smiled slightly and held Hua Zhengyi's arm. "It's understandable that women are always soft-hearted. It's common for them to meet their ex-boyfriend's old relationship when they get married, not to mention that your relationship with my brother is far from being too close, right?"
