My son bought antique videos at a high price.

China has a long and profound history and culture, and many works of art have been born. These works of art have been sublimated over time. As early as before the Song Dynasty, collecting ancient cultural relics became a popular activity.

After the founding of New China, for the sake of protecting cultural relics, the state implemented "treasure for the people", allowing cultural relics to circulate legally among the people, which opened the way for the emerging antique collection, and collecting art became a major way for elegant people to enjoy entertainment and investors. There are countless celebrities who like to collect art, and Wang is one of them.

He is a collector and an artist.

Speaking of Wang, I believe that friends who like watching movies will not be too strange. He is the founder of Huayi Brothers Media Co., Ltd. Huayi Brothers went public in 2009, becoming the first listed entertainment company in China, and Wang also made the 20 15 China Rich List with Huayi Brothers.

Like many rich people, Wang also has a strong interest in collecting art, and he himself "broke the news" and spent most of his money on bidding for art collections; In addition, although he laughs at himself as an "amateur painter", he is actually a real artist and has a lot of research on painting art.

Collect paintings at any cost.

His "revelation" should be true. There are countless works of art in Wang's collection, including some world-famous treasures. Wang also spared no expense in collecting these artworks, and spent 800 million yuan on antiques in three years.

In 2065438+2004, 165438+2004 10, Wang bid for Van Gogh's oil painting Daisies and Poppies for about 377 million yuan, which is said to be the highest price for China collectors to bid for western art overseas. In May of the following year, Wang photographed Picasso's oil painting "A Woman Sitting in a Bun" at a price of about 1948 RMB1850,000 RMB. These are just his collection of "Niu Yi Jiumao", which shows his love for art, especially painting.

The painting "I am not Pan Jinlian" sold for 3.45 million.

His love for painting art is not only reflected in his collection, but also in his own painting art. According to his memory, his wish when he was young was to be admitted to the Central Academy of Fine Arts. Although he didn't get it in the end, he has been studying painting with great concentration and once painted a portrait of Li Yong.

His own oil painting "I'm not Pan Jinlian" was sold at a high price of 3.45 million, which is regarded as a high price among contemporary paintings in China. At this time, we will inevitably have a question-since Wang is willing to spend a lot of money to collect art, how can he sell his masterpiece to 3.45 million, which is not much in his eyes?

Forced to sell paintings

Due to the poor development momentum of Huayi Brothers in recent two years, coupled with the tax evasion incident and epidemic situation in Fan Bingbing, Huayi Brothers' capital turnover has encountered great difficulties. In particular, the delayed release of the film is a fatal blow to Huayi Brothers, and even Wang himself thinks so.

"I think it is basically semi-fatal. Enterprises need blood transfusion, and blood transfusion depends on cash flow. Cash flow is product income. Movies and TV series can't be released as scheduled, or works of this scale are really under great pressure. After all, Huayi has its own funds. Last year, its own funds repaid more than 2 billion and earned hundreds of millions. "

Because Huayi Brothers was also full of twists and turns before, it is reported that Huayi Brothers lost 3.96 billion yuan in 20 19. In order to make a comeback, Huayi Brothers even spent half his life in the movie "800 Li Xiao Yuan". As a result, the release of the two films has been postponed one after another, and the cash flow is bound to be greatly affected, even facing the delisting crisis.

In order to reduce the pressure on the company, Wang tried everything and even had to sell his mansion and his art collection. He said in an interview, "I recently sold a batch of artworks and brought back some cash, which solved the liquidity problem of my own funds. No problem. I don't feel ashamed to sell paintings. "

summary

Formally, Huayi Brothers encountered a huge crisis this time. It is understandable that Wang sold his works for the development of the company. He is not only an art collector, but also the founder of a listed company and a business leader with many responsibilities. I hope Huayi Brothers can survive this crisis smoothly, and Wang can continue his hobby of collecting after the capital turnover is normal.
