Chapter 1036 The strategy of grasping the big and letting go of the small

   "Time Magazine", also known as Time, is the most influential weekly magazine in the world since this century.

   Those who can appear on the cover of Time Magazine are all world figures.

  For example, the beloved Prime Minister has appeared on the cover of Time Magazine the most times, a total of six times.

  The chairman and the second generation are both four times.

  Liu Qingshan never imagined that he would have this kind of treatment.

  You must know that this is the main edition of the era, not the editions of the continents, and the influence of the main edition is greater.

  Of course Xiao Li was joking. How could such a thing be pushed away? He handed Liu Qingshan a piece of paper with a phone number on it. It was an associate editor of the weekly magazine, and Liu Qingshan would be interviewed.

   "Congratulations, Liu." The old bus also looked envious, he is not qualified yet.

   It seems that in 1999, he was on the cover of Time Magazine for the first time.

  Liu Qingshan nodded with a smile: "For me personally, it's the same whether I'm old or not; but for my skin color and the country I represent, I'm very happy to have this opportunity."

  Xiao Li blew a whistle. Of course he knew that among the people of the United States, due to the relationship between propaganda and public opinion orientation, most of them did not understand Huaxia.

   And his friend Liu Qingshan is undoubtedly the most outstanding representative of the new generation of Chinese people.

  Professor Peter was interviewed by Time Magazine after he won the Nobel Prize, so he still gave Liu Qingshan some advice.

  Because some questions may be very sensitive and harsh during the interview, he hopes that Liu Qingshan can be prepared.

  For his mentor, Liu Qingshan still respects him very much, and he expressed his gratitude to Professor Peter.

  After having lunch together, Liu Qingshan saw off his mentor and Lao Ba, and then went to Columbia Film Company with Xiao Li.

   After taking a nap, Director Zhang insisted on following him to have a look.

   It's only been a few months since the last time I came, but I can clearly feel that the company has undergone great changes.

  Chambers led the company's executives and greeted them at the door. Liu Qingshan shook hands and hugged everyone one by one, and then entered the living room talking and laughing.

  The operation of the company is very stable now, which can be reflected from everyone's expressions and work attitudes.

   This is mainly due to the success of Forrest Gump's movie, which has won word-of-mouth and popularity for the company.

  Of course, there is also stable funds, which is the basis for ensuring the stable development of a company.

   Along the way, Director Zhang only has envy in his heart. Brother Qingshan is now the boss of a well-known film company. Thinking about himself, he has lived a long life, which is wasted.

   After sitting in the reception room, Chambers briefly introduced the company's recent development.

  This year's key investment film is mainly Pirates of the Caribbean. The famous Black Pearl has been remodeled and the actors are in place. It is currently shooting in other places.

  The other one is the animated film produced by Pixar Studio, Toy Story, led by Russell and his team, is in full swing.

  Although it is an animated movie, the investment is not small at all. A lot of money has been invested in computer equipment alone.

  Liu Qingshan asked Russell about the progress, and Russell said excitedly: The production should be completed next summer.

  One and a half years is already considered fast.

  It’s like a big boat. It’s been a few years, and it’s still difficult to give birth.

  In addition to these two main films, there are several small-investment films that are also being filmed.

  A big film company like this produces around ten movies a year.

  Moreover, many movies are invested from outside to reduce risks.

  However, Liu Qingshan adopts the strategy of focusing on the big and letting go of the small: the movies he has appointed are basically solely funded.

  Then there is agency distribution and the like, just like Director Zhang's Big Red Lantern.

  The company can also earn part of the profits through the agency.

  After reporting the company's situation, the topic turned to the upcoming Oscar ceremony, which everyone is looking forward to.

  Although the competitors are also very strong, movies like Forrest Gump are actually the favorite genres of those judges.

   Knowing that in the evening, Liu Qingshan and Wu Tong went to the villa of the aunt's house.

   "Cousin!" Du Jiaxing, a handsome young man, had long been looking forward to it at the door.

  Beside him, there are the smiling second sister Liu Yinfeng, Grandpa Du and aunt, who are also supporting each other, looking at Liu Qingshan lovingly.

  Liu Qingshan patted Du Jiaxing on the shoulder, and greeted his grandparents.

   Li Tieniu, who was behind, dumped things from the car in big and small bags, all of which were some local products and nutritional products.

   "Qingshan, everything is fine at home, and Xiao Tong, why don't you bring the child?" My aunt held Wu Tong's hand. The older she got, the more she hoped to see more descendants, which is the continuation of the life of the elders.

   "Grandma, Lulu is just six months old, and I will definitely bring it when she is one year old." Wu Tong could also feel the old lady's heart.

  She was able to come out this time, but she gave Xiaolu Lu a milk in advance.

  If you follow the customs in the countryside, you have to eat until you are at least one year old, and there are also some who are still breastfeeding at two or three years old.

   But in fact, after three months, there is no need to breastfeed.

  There is no shortage of cow's milk and goat's milk on the Jiapigou side, and it is more suitable for babies to drink goat's milk.

   "It's better for us to go back in the summer, and we are going to attend Yueming's wedding. We're getting older, so it's less time to go back." Auntie's smile bloomed in the setting sun.

  Huang Yueming and Chen Dongfang's wedding has been scheduled for August.

   "Grandpa and grandma, you still have decades of good life. Didn't the little six give you a pulse and say that you can live to be a hundred years old?"

  Liu Qingshan smiled and took over the conversation. He cherishes the time when he is old. He hopes that the old people can live a long and healthy life.

   "Then let's work hard." Grandpa Du smiled and nodded.

  The family entered the villa, dinner was ready, and Liu Qingshan cherished this time of reunion with his family very much.

  During eating, the mobile phone used by Liu Qingshan rang. After connecting, Lu Fang's excited voice came from the phone: "Boss, you are in the country of America!"

   After chatting for a few words, Liu Qingshan found out that Lu Fang and Boban also came a few days ago, saying that there was an auction here, to see if they could find good things to bring back.

  Liu Qingshan became interested when he heard it, and he happened to have nothing to do at night, so he asked Lu Liang to drive to pick them up.

   After dinner, the car arrived. Wu Tong and Liu Yinfeng didn't have much interest in this aspect, so Liu Qingshan led Li Tieniu there.

   This is Sotheby's auction house in Los Angeles. At the door, Liu Qingshan saw Lu Fang and Boban waiting there.

  These two are both in suits and leather shoes, with the fashionable haircuts. They look like successful businessmen.

   If you're in this business, you have to behave like a dog, otherwise, people won't bother to talk to you.

   "Boss." When Lu Fang saw Liu Qingshan, he was very affectionate.

  "Boss!" Boban was friendly and respectful. It was this young boss who changed his down-and-out life.

  Liu Qingshan smiled and patted the shoulders of the two people: "It must be something good to attract two big art dealers."

  That’s right, Lu Fang and Boban are well-known in the European and American art collection circles, mainly because they really paid for it.

   "Boss, we are not pretending to be powerful." Lu Fang said with a smile.

  Liu Qingshan waved his hand, these two people have traveled all over the world, it is quite hard work.

  Several people entered the auction hall and found the seats that belonged to them. Liu Qingshan looked at the promotional brochure. It turned out that it was a special auction with the theme: Special Sale of Ancient Civilization and Cultural Relics.

   Take a closer look at the brochure. There are a number of them, which are cultural relics of ancient American civilizations, represented by the Mayan and Inca civilizations.

  In addition, there are also some cultural relics from the Mesopotamia civilization in West Asia, as well as ancient Egyptian cultural relics.

   Of course, the representative of ancient Chinese civilization is also indispensable. Liu Qingshan saw a big tripod with an inscription on the brochure page.

  This is the most important weapon of the country, especially the one with inscriptions, which is of precious historical research value.

  In the Bronze Hall of Qingshan Museum, there is not a single tripod yet.

  One reason is that this kind of cultural relics are relatively rare, and the other reason is that the control of bronze wares is relatively strict, and trading is prohibited.

  Liu Qingshan couldn't help feeling hot in his heart: If it came back from abroad, then it would be justifiable.

  Looking at it, Liu Qingshan shook his head involuntarily: Artworks like this kind of ancient civilization should not appear in auctions, and should be placed in museums to show future generations the long and splendid civilization of our ancestors.

   Just as he was concentrating on checking the brochure, a familiar voice suddenly came from beside him: "Mounting? Why are you here too?"

  Liu Qingshan looked up, the corner of his mouth could not help but slightly raised: "Mr. Looney, nice to meet you."

  Looney Rockefeller was not happy at all. He fell into the hands of Liu Qingshan several times. He already regarded Mr. Mountain as his nemesis.

  Liu Qingshan glanced away, saw Tony Getty again, and waved with a smile.

  Tony turned his face away, and his original good mood suddenly turned into a very bad mood. The reason is very simple. Everyone is in this mood when they see the person they least expect to see.

   "Mr. Mountain is also interested in art?" Looney suddenly had a revenge plan in his mind, and he couldn't help being a little excited.

  Liu Qingshan also nodded, from Luni's undisguised fiery eyes, Liu Qingshan had already guessed the other party's intention: Do you want to make a trip?

   "Haha, just right, I also have the same hobby. The auction house is the fairest place for competition." Looney smiled happily.

  His cronies immediately understood the implication when they heard it, and even Tony secretly began gearing up to stop Liu Qingshan.

  In short, being able to make Liu Qingshan unhappy is their greatest happiness.

  Liu Qingshan didn't care, and stabbed the other party cheerfully: "That's right, the one with the highest price wins. This is fair. I don't know if the hundreds of millions of dollars I won from the bet are enough?"

  Hearing this, the faces of Looney, Tony and others immediately became uglier than swallowing a fly.

   Several people looked at each other and made up their minds to fight Liu Qingshan for a while.
