Since 1983

Xu Fei soaked for two days and bought more than forty things.

The most expensive one is a Yongle blue and white octagonal candlestick with twirling branches and floral patterns, which is a special type of vessel that was exported during the Yongle Dynasty. Today, returning from overseas has cost more than three million yuan.

Zhang Li bought more than ten sets of furniture, but no one bought the furniture at all, and the price started at several thousand yuan, if she hadn't passed all the auctions. It is going to be sent to the Zhuangzi in Changping. With the current inventory, if we build a five-entry and five-exit house, the furniture will be enough.

All in all, the autumn auctions had a total turnover of more than 20 million yuan, 45% of which were unsuccessful, and the two contributed 6 million yuan.

Fu Baoshi's "Beauty Walk" got his wish and sold for 10.78 million yuan, breaking the record price of calligraphy and painting in one fell swoop. The buyer was a company in the capital city, and they had been delaying in paying the money. The uproar at the time was a later story.

Xu Fei settled in the capital in 1985, and has kept collecting for 11 years now. There are more than 1,500 pieces, mainly porcelain, jade, handicrafts, miscellaneous items, calligraphy and painting, and furniture.

On the second day of the auction, Ma Weidu also came to buy some oil paintings.

It's been a long time since we saw each other. Let's have a meal and invite Xu Fei to a place after the meal. At No. 53 Liulichang West Street, a small two-story building, the door plaque is covered with cloth, and the interior seems to have just been renovated, with a faint strange smell wafting.

"This is your museum? It's smaller."

"It's more than four hundred square meters. It's useless if it's too big, it's embarrassing."

Ma Weidu led them around and said, "The formalities will be completed next month. I'm going to hold a Ming and Qing porcelain exhibition first. What do you think?"

"Yes, the age is close, and the porcelain is also close. What's the name of your restaurant?"

"Guanfu Museum of Classical Art. Guanfu, do you know?"

"The Tao Te Ching?"

"Hey, Teacher Xu's knowledge is complicated."

The old horse didn't know whether it was a compliment or a detriment, and said with a smile: "To the extreme, keep quiet, all things work together, I can see the answer, the husband and the things are all... I have been thinking about this name for a month."

"I'm curious, how did you come up with the idea of ​​opening a museum?"

"It's better to have fun alone than to have fun with others. When the collection was not popular, I took the lead. Now that it's popular, at least I can make some contributions."

The old horse squinted his eyes, and his face was wrinkled like the real thing.

The Guanfu Museum was first located in Liulichang, then moved to Huazhi Building in Zhugan Hutong, Chaoyang, and then moved to Jinnan Road, Zhangwanfen, Dashanzi.

That will be big, covering an area of ​​eight acres.

On the one hand, Lao Ma may have the meaning of sharing, on the other hand, he wants to gild himself and become a cultural celebrity.

Later, it got smarter, implemented a council system, and set up a foundation. In fact, it is left-handed and right-handed, a clever means of concealing money and managing money.

His personal assets have always been a mystery. Anyway, he has always been rich, and he made money by dumping antiques.

After becoming a celebrity, I slowly went ashore, relying on cultural derivatives, publishing books, and appearing on programs to maintain revenue.

"By the way, your collection is no less than mine. Are you interested in building a museum?"

"I'll forget it, maybe I will have a whim in the future."

Xu Fei thought for a while, then suddenly said: "I just want to do a lecture-style cultural column, and you take the lead. How about "Ma Weidu Said Collection"?"

"CCTV?"

"How is it possible, self-made column, recommended to national TV stations."

The old horse was moved, pondering over it and said: "Success, I will prepare first."

Next year, a large number of TV stations will be on the scene, and Xu Fei's general program will also be launched, which can be broadcast by any TV station. "Hundreds of Lectures", "Treasure Hunt" and "Entertainment Live" are all featured.

He has always blossomed in art and entertainment, but he has to find a new host again.

…………

The pair of white jade ornaments were sent out by someone. They were not expensive, and he didn't dare to give away the expensive ones. Antiques are the best gift, decent and low-key.

On the third day of the autumn auction, he came to Chang'an Building.

No. 10 East Chang'an Avenue, next to Wangfujing, diagonally opposite the Capital Hotel. Every inch of land is expensive, and it is said that it took the female elder four years to clear the land before she got this land.

Xu Fei went in, showed the invitation letter, and was immediately taken upstairs by a waiter.

"Our club includes three basement floors, a lobby on the first floor and the eighty and ninety floors, where cocktail parties, business lunches, dinners, new product exhibitions and signing ceremonies can all be held.

The best ingredients and chefs are guaranteed to be authentic, and there are table tennis halls, bowling alleys, tennis courts, swimming pools, jacuzzi, etc..."

When he heard that the facilities were much better than those of the China Club, he asked with a smile, "How much is the membership fee?"

"Currently, it is 9,000 US dollars, and an annual fee of 1,500 US dollars is required every year."

Speaking of arriving at Regal's restaurant, many people were already seated.

This is a gathering organized by Mr. Sun Yanjun of the Commercial News, and more than 30 media leaders and some powerful real estate developers have been invited.

It has to be said that Fuhao Ma's ability to fool people is one of the best, and he can use his words to make people work hard for him - even if you have only known each other for a few days.

The China Yellow Pages he founded last year rented servers from the American VBN company, and Hangzhou was not connected to the Internet at that time.

First translate the materials of Chinese enterprises into English and send them to the United States by EMS. The VBN company will complete the webpage, print it out with color inkjet, and send it back to Hangzhou.

He showed the client the printout, saying that we are not liars and that we do have the Internet. If the company still doesn't believe it, just give the website and the phone number in the United States to the other party and check it yourself.

Each company charges 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and the US side shares 60%, but they often receive no money, or receive a little.

Later, it got better, and the media reports became famous, and Ma Fuhao was already quite famous in the local area. Then at the end of last year, I started to explore the capital.

Until now.

Xu Fei knew several bigwigs in the newspaper industry, and they sat together to chat. Not long after, Sun Yanjun came out to host and introduced a strange guy.

The head is very big, it is the 32-year-old Ma Fuhao.

Put on the computer, demonstrate on the spot, get a page of the Chinese Yellow Pages, and said: "Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, said that the Internet will change every aspect of human life."

puff!

Xu Fei was happy.

Bill Gates never said this sentence, it should be: "Ma Yun said: Bill Gates said: Internet blah blah blah..."

To a group of bigwigs, he started talking about entry-level issues such as what is the Internet, talking about the booming American industry, and talking about China's great opportunities.

What the people below heard was hazy and their blood boiled.

His idea at this stage is the same as that of many people, to be China's Yahoo. Turn China Yellow Pages into a portal website, with information on companies, corporate promotions, product supply and demand information, economic policies, and even culture, education, sports, etc.

After talking for more than two hours, I ate together.

During the meal, Sun Yanjun introduced several rich men, so Ma Fuhao started talking again.

After the speech, a rich man was suspicious: "Since the Internet is such a good thing, will the country let you become a private enterprise?"

The other one had some knowledge and said, "Do you know what Sohu.com my son is playing on recently?"

"I know I know."

"I've seen it a bit too, it doesn't seem to be any different from yours?"

"It's different. Sohu focuses on news reading, making friends and chatting. We are based on commercial services, and news is a part of it."

"..."

The big money shook their heads and said they still didn't accept it.

Ma Fuhao is low and helpless, has no blessings, and the people don't understand!

"Drink some water."

At this moment, a hand suddenly reached out and poured a cup of tea. He turned his head and saw a man smiling to himself: "Many Internet companies have emerged this year. Do you have any strategies to deal with it?"

"My strategy is to shrink immediately, do web pages down-to-earth, and develop customers one by one. This is called ground follow-up."

Ma Fuhao thanked him and replied: "The society does not pay attention to it, which is our best opportunity. Small companies are desperately developing. When the policy is tilted, it will not be our turn."

"I heard that you are now a joint venture?"

"Yes, I account for 30%, and the West Lake Net Federation accounts for 70%."

"Oh, there are many troubles in joint ventures, and there are often differences in operations, not to mention that you are still the weak side."

Lan Yin paused, then suddenly said: "Do you understand e-commerce?"

"do not know much."

"You can get in touch more."

He left a business card and left. Fuhao Ma took a look, "Time Venture Capital?"

...

Just a few days after the press conference ended, the media received a notice: "Without express support from the government, any media is not allowed to publicize the Internet."

The reason is probably: Some academicians of the Academy of Engineering wrote a letter, saying that in view of the current national conditions and the development status of the information industry, China is not yet suitable for the development of the Internet.

The media can only restrain their style, and Sohu can't advertise. It was Fuhao Ma's friends who suggested that if the People's Daily could be persuaded to go online, it would certainly be reported.

Ma Fuhao felt that it was feasible, and continued to fool Daye, but he had a business card and an e-commerce term in his pocket.
