Chapter 233 Make money by engaging in art?

The preliminary selection is over.

On the website of Xichuan Provincial Government, the list of shortlisted works was announced.

Lu Li's entry "Pandaren" suddenly topped the list, Ranked 1st.

This ranking shows that Lu Li's work, in the opinion of the judges, is the best of all the works.

Of course, the ranking of the preliminary review does not represent the final result.

In many selection activities, the first work in the primary selection is not the final winning work.

Because the preliminary review only represents the opinions of the reviewers, the final result still needs to be selected by "Party A" and voted by the public.

But...the first place in the preliminary examination is already a very dazzling achievement for a freshman who has just entered the university.

"Warm congratulations to Lu Li, a freshman from the School of Plastic Arts of our school, who was shortlisted for the creation and design of themed sculptures in Xichuan provincial capital, and won the first place in the preliminary review."

It is not a banner or a good news. text messages, but posted a floating message on the campus network.

A bright red floating message box floats on the homepage of the campus network, and there are animated fireworks "bang bang" around it.

"Fuck! Lu Li is designing a provincial capital-themed sculpture? Why is he a finalist?"

"It's not the key to being shortlisted, the key is that he won the first place!"

p>

"The first is not the key, the key is that he is only a freshman now."

"Seeing this news, as a senior dog, I lost countless hairs for my graduation design, I said Very hurt! I can only shut down the computer silently."

"As a junior dog, who is trying to learn styling, I am very hurt! I can only shut down the computer silently."

"As a sophomore dog, I don't even know what the design is. I feel very hurt! I can only shut down the computer silently."

"As a freshman, I am completely I don't know what you're talking about, but I can only call 666, which means I'm very hurt, and silently shut down the computer."

"Can I ask, how many seeds are in your computer?"

"Pure as I am, I can't understand what's going on upstairs."

"Bullshit. Where did the seeds come from? It's all learning materials."

"Learning materials +1!"

Every topic, it is no surprise that it will be crooked later.

After the results of the preliminary review were announced, Lu Li's phone also kept ringing.

"Little Lu, congratulations, your work has been shortlisted."

Old Han's voice was filled with joy, "This kind of provincial sculpture design is already a postgraduate subject. .You can be shortlisted, it shows that you already have the level of postgraduate. Apply for early graduation next year, apply for my postgraduate!"

"Okay! Thank you teacher for cultivating!"

Lu Li quickly thanked him. This opportunity to participate was given by Old Han, who did not forget to dig wells when drinking water. This thank you, Lu Li said sincerely.

“It’s all your own ability.”

Old Han laughed, “In the future, it will be good for you to participate in more design projects like this.”

"Understood!"

Lu Li nodded again and again. How can we reflect the level in the field of dry art? How can I increase my fame? Winning in such a large-scale creative design is a benchmark.

A famous artist, a master of craftsmanship, of course there are many classic works.

If Lu Li's design is finally selected, then the statue standing on the Xichuan Provincial Capital Square is Lu Li's gilded business card!

This is like, Yuwen fatty's "Merry Young Hero", which is the masterpiece.

“Lu Li, congratulations!”

After hanging up Old Han, many people called Lu Li to congratulate him.

The leaders of the plastic arts department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, the counselors in Lu Li's class, classmates, Lin Xiaowen and the others are all calling Lu Li.

Lu Li also sent a message to Liu Qin, and sent the news announced by Xichuan Provincial Government to Liu Qin.

"Your paper has been listed in SCI, and my work has also been shortlisted."

Liu Qin immediately replied with a message: "It's amazing! I admire it!"

After a few chats, Lu Li received another call from Nishikawa.

"Hello, is this Lu Li teacher from the Central Academy of Fine Arts?"

The voice on the phone was very polite, "I'm Xiao Wang from the Xichuan Provincial Office."

Lu Li…teacher?

Hearing this, Lu Li was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "I'm Lu Li, but... I'm not a teacher, I'm a student of the plastic arts department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts."

"Teacher Lu, you're welcome!"

Xiao Wang from the Xichuan Provincial Office, said with a smile: "You are proven in art, and it is appropriate to call you a teacher."

p>

"You've won the prize!"

Lu Li replied with a smile, thinking: Is it time for me to be honorably called "teacher"?

The art world is better. If it is the entertainment industry, everyone can be called "teacher" respectfully, which makes the name "teacher" less and less valuable.

"Teacher Lu, I'm calling to inform you."

Xiao Wang's words are still very polite, "The provincial government has decided that next Friday at 9:00 a.m. in Xichuan The Art Center will hold a review of shortlisted works. When the time comes, please come to the venue and explain your design ideas to the leaders and judges present. Would it be convenient for you to come over?"

"No problem! "

Lu Li nods with a smile.

"Okay! Please take a photo of your ID card and send it to me, and I'll book your flight and hotel. When you come, please call me and I'll arrange a vehicle to pick you up at the airport. ."

Well, that's expert treatment, right?

Lu Li laughed, "Okay, sorry to bother you."

"This is what we should do."

Xiao Wang politely said, Just hang up.

Lu Li got up and went out after sending his ID card to Old Han's house.

“teacher, Xichuan provincial government informed me that I will participate in the re-election next Friday.”

Lu Li sat down at Old Han’s house and said to Old Han: “I am still the first This is the second time to participate in this kind of double-check, and I want to ask you to give pointers.”

“What’s so good about pointing?”

Old Han laughed, “When checking, you need to introduce Take a look at your design ideas and answer some questions, just like when you introduced the design plan to me last time. The only thing to pay attention to is the problem of craftsmanship, you need to think about it.”

“Craftsmanship? I have done the complete process design, frame structure, welding requirements, skin modeling, painting and coloring, all of which are clearly written.”

Lu Li is not too concerned about the process requirements.

“It’s not this.”

Old Han laughed, “The key is the cost. How much does your work cost to make. You have to give the provincial government a quotation.”

"Eh?"

Lu Li was taken aback, "Is it possible that I provide the design, and the provincial government arranges the construction according to my design?"

"Of course. No!"

Old Han smiled and looked at the head, "This is your work, you are responsible for the design and manufacture. So, you have to give the provincial government a quotation."

"I made it myself?"

Lu Li opened his mouth, "It's not impossible to make it, the problem is, I have to learn construction, welding, and architecture again... ..."

"Who wants you to do this?"

Old Han waved his hand, "These specific constructions are all contracted by arts and crafts companies. You are only responsible for supervision, keep an eye on them It's just a matter of quality."

"So it is!"

Lu Li then figured out the rules of sculpture design and manufacture.

After silently calculating the cost of materials and labor, Lu Li quickly estimated the price: "Eight million is enough with labor and materials."

"Hahahaha!"

Old Han suddenly laughed, "You don't count your own design value? You don't count the profit of the craft company? Triple it! The quotation of 24 million is more appropriate. "

"Huh?"

Lu Li found out that doing art... really makes money!

Well, a painting or a piece of calligraphy can sell for hundreds of thousands, millions, and it is normal for a statue to sell for more than 20 million.

“I know an arts and crafts company, let me tell them, let them come to you and make a project bidding document!”

Old Han also knew that Lu Li did not This experience directly arranged for an arts and crafts company.

"Okay!"

Lu Li also knows that he still needs to learn this aspect, and the craft company introduced by Old Han is naturally very convenient.

Second day, a person who claimed to be the business manager of "Huaxia Arts and Crafts (Group) Company" found Lu Li.

A company that starts with Huaxia is still a group, this... This is a huge state-owned enterprise!

Lu Li thought that what Old Han was introducing was a small business, didn't expect to come directly to a state-owned enterprise, and he was the leader of the arts and crafts industry!

“Hello, Teacher Lu!”

This business manager named Wu Zhengxiong greeted Lu Li very politely.

"Don't dare to be worthy."

A man about the same age as Father Lu, talking to Lu Li so politely and using his honorific title, Lu Li couldn't bear it.

"You are a student of Old Han, you are taller than me in terms of seniority!"

Manager Wu smiled and spoke very politely, "Mr. Jiang of our company is also Old Han's student. I am the discipline brought out by Mr. Jiang, speaking of which, and you are still my Martial Uncle!"

Well, Old Han is indeed the Mount Tai Big Dipper in the art world, I Followed by the elders.

"Don't dare! Don't dare!"

Lu Li shook his head again and again, "I haven't officially entered yet! I will not be considered an Old Han student until I am admitted to graduate school. ."

Manager Wu praised Lu Li again, and then he got down to business.

"Teacher Lu, we have also paid attention to your work in Xichuan provincial capital."

Manager Wu stretched out a stack of documents and said to Lu Li: "If If you authorize our company to produce your work, we will prepare a bidding document based on your opinion to participate in the bidding of themed sculpture works by Xichuan Provincial Government. What do you think?"

"No problem."

Since it is a company recommended by Old Han, and it is also a leading enterprise in the domestic arts and crafts industry, Lu Li will naturally not refuse to cooperate with them.

"Okay!"

Manager Wu opened the document, took out an authorization agreement, and handed it to Lu Li, "Teacher Lu, take a look at this agreement, if there is no problem , please sign."

"I'll take a look at it first."

Believing in Old Han is one thing, and signing a contract must be read carefully.

However, Lu Li scrolled quickly. From Manager Wu's point of view, Lu Li just turned it around.

This authorization document stipulates that once Lu Li's "Pandaren" sculpture has passed the review and final review, the production and construction of the "Pandaren" sculpture will be authorized to Huaxia Arts and Crafts Company.

In this document, the most important item is profit distribution.

According to the stipulations in the document, Huaxia Art Company undertakes the construction and manufacturing. Except for Lu Li's design fee, construction cost and labor, the profits will be shared equally by Lu Li and Huaxia Art Company.

Design fee...5 million?

Seeing the design fee agreed on in the document, Lu Li blinked and sighed... It's really profitable to engage in art!

Of course, most people who engage in art can only make ends meet. It's not that they don't want to make a lot of money, but... the strength does not allow it!

Closing the folder, Lu Li secretly calculated that if his "Pandaren" sculpture can finally be selected, when the contract is signed, he will get five million design fees.

After the construction is completed and the acceptance is passed, the profits can be shared equally with Huaxia Arts and Crafts Company.

In this way, Lu Li can almost earn tens of millions from this "Pandaren" sculpture!

It's so scary!

Thinking about it this way, every bigwig in the art world is an invisible rich man!

Lu Li is also very clear. He cooperated with Huaxia Arts and Crafts Co., Ltd., and he was able to get such good conditions and get so many benefits. It was definitely because of Old Han.

If it weren't for Old Han, a little college student, just give a few hundred thousand, and it's easy to pass up, and you're still happy.

“Thank you, this contract is fine.”

Lu Li laughed, picked up the pen and signed the license agreement.

"Okay! Teacher Lu, I will prepare the relevant bidding materials right away."

Manager Wu got up and shook hands with Lu Li, "I wish Teacher Lu's work all the best. Passed the review and successfully won!"

"Thank you!"

Lu Li nods with a smile.

Three days later, Manager Wu found Lu Li again with a stack of thick documents.

"Teacher Lu, this is the bidding document we made. There is a complete quotation and construction plan, you should take a look. After the review is passed, our company will conduct bidding negotiations with the Xichuan Provincial Government. "

Manager Wu handed the thick stack of documents to Lu Li.

"Okay!"

Lu Li took the information and nodded with a smile.

"Teacher Lu, did the Xichuan Provincial Government book your air ticket for the morning the day after tomorrow? When the time comes, I'll come and take you to the airport."

Manager Wu said, Get up and say goodbye.

"I'll trouble you then."

Someone sent to the airport, naturally is the best, and Lu Li didn't refuse.

After Manager Wu left, Lu Li took a look at the bidding documents and was speechless for a long time.

Project quotation...40 million!

Lying in a groove!

The cost I calculated was 8 million, Old Han tripled to 24 million, and now... Huaxia Arts and Crafts has raised prices again!

Sure enough...the value of art is immeasurable!

Lu Li smiled and shook the head, black! It's so dark! Is this killing the Xichuan provincial government as a fat pig?

How expensive is a statue? This money... will people give it out?

It was only when Lu Li arrived in Xichuan to participate in the re-examination that he found out... It turns out that Huaxia Arts and Crafts Company is not black at all!

Others offer more than fifty million!
