1059 A Painting Worth 100 Million
Ren Kun did not refute his words. Sheng’s painting was indeed worthy of such an evaluation.
The other artists heard this and gathered around.
They looked at Qin Sheng’s painting and could not help but nod. They looked very amazed.
The staff at the art exhibition introduced, “This is Miss Qin Sheng’s painting. She was also the top scorer in the National College Entrance Examination last time. She’s the same age as Qin Churou. Also, her teacher is Mr. Lu Zhongguo. Miss Qin Sheng’s paintings can now be sold for a high price of 10 million.”
There were many foreigners who had come to see the painting. They did not know Qin Sheng before.
After hearing the staff’s introduction, they couldn’t help but sigh. “An 18-year-old girl can actually compare to us old artists in our fifties or sixties. She’s really amazing and a genius!”
“I used to think that Qin Churou was very outstanding for being able to draw such a painting at her age. I didn’t expect that she would be compared to Qin Sheng.”
“It looks like Qin Churou still needs to work harder. However, she won’t be able to catch up to Qin Sheng in a short period of time. As expected of Old Master Lu’s student!”
If they did not compare her work with Qin Sheng’s, they would think that Qin Churou was very outstanding.
But now, they were praising Qin Sheng’s painting, and since they were of the same age, they could not help but comment on Qin Churou’s painting.
Of course, they were very picky about Qin Churou’s painting.
The smile on Qin Churou’s face froze. She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails were almost digging into her flesh.
Her heart was filled with hatred.
Qin Sheng again!
Without Qin Sheng, she would have enjoyed praise and not such belittlement.
Qin Sheng stood beside Qin Churou and chuckled. “I’m sorry, but my painting is better than yours. It’s not as bad as you say.”
Qin Churou turned around and glared at Qin Sheng. “Qin Sheng, don’t be too smug. One day, I’ll step all over you!”
Qin Sheng smiled. “I hope that day will come.”
Five minutes had passed on the other side, but there were still many people standing in front of Qin Sheng’s painting, compared to Qin Churou’s side, where it was very quiet.
“Miss Qin Sheng,” a collector could not help but ask, “may I know the price of this painting?”
If Qin Sheng could draw such an outstanding painting at such a young age, there was no need to mention the future.
This collector could already imagine the price of the paintings in the future. He was afraid that he would not be able to buy them without at least a 100 million yuan.
It would be better to buy the painting while Qin Sheng was not very famous yet and keep it until its value appreciated.
There were many who had such thoughts.
“The starting price is 10 million,” the staff answered. “The highest bidder gets it.”
“I bid 30 million,” the collector immediately said.
Soon, someone followed. “40 million.”
“50 million.”
“70 million.”
Another person shouted, “80 million.”
Many people were bidding. They felt that Qin Sheng’s painting was indeed worth that much. If they collected this painting, they would only make a profit and not lose anything.
80 million was a very high price.
The last bidder thought that no one would compete with him, but the collector gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll buy this painting for 100 million.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings became quiet.
Qin Sheng’s paintings were indeed perfect, but there were very few paintings that cost hundreds of millions. Moreover, they were all the works of famous painters who had put in a lot of effort.
With Qin Sheng’s current reputation, this 100 million was a bit much.
