Chapter 306 Suspicious

Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!

The little girl looked not big, only about three years old. She probably thought the woman behind her was making her happy. The more the woman called to stop, the more she ran forward, and soon came to the vicinity of Matthew and Lily Collins.

Only then did she realize that Matthew and Lily Collins were strangers and immediately wanted to stop. Perhaps because the brakes were too fast and almost fell to the ground. Matthew was very close to the little girl, so she bent down and held her. The little girl looked up at Matthew. When she saw that she didn't know her, she seemed to cry.

"It's okay! It's okay!" The woman ran over and took the girl from Matthew's hand. She picked her up and comforted her, and then said, "Thank you..."

She glanced at Matthew for another glance, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Matthew replied politely.

This exhibition has a certain entry threshold, and most of the people who come in are rich or famous.

He saw that this tall woman looked very familiar, especially the appearance of a mole on the corner of her mouth. She seemed to be often seen in magazines and newspapers, but she couldn't remember who it was.

Lily Collins then took the initiative to say hello, "Hello, Ms. Crawford."

The tall woman's eyes immediately turned to Lily Collins, looked at her carefully, and then said, "You are... Lily." She confirmed this and said, "You haven't seen each other for a few years. You are already a big girl."

Lily Collins completely changed her appearance, not at all like the star-chasing group just now, and she looked very well-educated. "The last time we met was three years ago, and my mother often mentioned you."

The tall woman said politely, "Let me say hello to your mother for me. I will ask her out for coffee if I have time."

At this time, coupled with Ms. Crawford mentioned by Lily Collins, Matthew had already thought of who the tall woman opposite was.

"Matthew, I'll introduce it to you."

Just in time, Lily Collins is going to introduce both parties, "This is Ms. Cindy Crawford."

She then introduced Matthew, "Ms. Crawford, this is Matthew Horner, my friend."

"Hello." Cindy Crawford held his daughter, but couldn't reach out, and nodded and smiled, "Thank you very much for what happened just now."

Matthew replied politely, "You are so polite, it's a simple task."

Cindy Crawford teased the little girl he was holding and said, "Kaya, say thank you."

The little girl probably became a little familiar with her now and said in a slight voice, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Matthew smiled at the little girl, "Is your name Kaiya? It's so cute."

But the little girl turned her head and ignored Matthew. When Cindy Crawford heard Matthew praise her daughter, she smiled a little more sincerely and said, "She is Kayah Jaber, she is a little afraid of being alive."

Matthew waved his hand, "It's okay."

Cindy Crawford made a few more polite words to Matthew, and soon a man came over, she said goodbye and left with her daughter.

"Let's go too." Lily Collins didn't seem to want to stay here. "This exhibition is too boring and too boring. It's better to go home and play games."

Matthew agreed with this and said, "Okay, I'll leave too."

The two walked back along the way, and Lily Collins said again, "I will write you emails often, you must reply if you have time."

"Don't worry." Matthew thought for a while and said, "I promise that I will reply to you once every two months at least."

Lily Collins's face immediately collapsed, "Two months? Can't you have half a month? One month is OK."

Matthew said without a promise, "I'll try my best."

When he arrived at the gallery hall, Lily Collins called and asked the driver to drive over, then said to Matthew, "I'll leave first."

Matthew nodded, "There is a reporter outside, so I won't give it to you."

Lily Collins waved at him and quickly walked out of the gallery hall.

This exhibition is different from what Matthew imagined. It is obviously a bit cold and does not sell paintings on site. After these paintings are exhibited continuously, a public auction will be held.

According to Matthew's understanding, the organizer must do enough publicity and promotion, and only after it is famous enough can it be sold at a high price.

He didn't understand the tricks here either. He didn't plan to buy them anyway, so he was ready to leave.

The man named Robert Fernandez appeared just right, came to Matthew and said, "Have you finished reading it, Mr. Horner?"

Matthew replied casually, "Look at it roughly."

"Do you want a break?" Robert Fernandez pointed to an entrance to the left of the foyer. "We have coffee there."

"No need." Matthew declined, "I have other things to do, it's time to leave."

Robert Fernandez said, "I'll send you out." He followed Matthew to the gate, and while walking, he grabbed the time, "In fact, the value-preservation rate of art investment is really good."

In the eyes of investment consultants, Hollywood stars are the best to make money. Most Hollywood stars do not have a high level of education and hold a lot of cash after becoming famous. In order to highlight their style, they often buy a lot of art. This kind of purchase is very blind.

Hollywood stars are also one of the favorite client groups for auctions and art investment companies.

That day, he met Matthew Horner and felt like he had encountered a big fish. Unexpectedly, the big fish had no intention of biting the hook at all.

Matthew didn't answer Robert Fernandez's words, but just walked out.

"It is almost impossible for art to depreciate." Robert Fernandez said, "Think about it, Mr. Horner, if you invest in real estate, a single property tax will be a huge expense every year. Buying a luxury house may be a loss in a few years, but art will not."

He continued this distortion of concepts, "Art is priceless. As human civilization becomes more and more developed, the value of art will only continue to rise."

Matthew walked out of the gallery door and said to Robert Fernandez, "I understand. I will continue to pay attention when I have time."

Robert Fernandez took out an invitation letter from his bag in his clothes and handed it to Matthew. "This is an invitation letter to the auction, and I hope to see Mr. Horner at the auction."

Matthew took the invitation letter and politely said, "If you have time, I will participate."

He put away the invitation letter, turned to the BMW car driven by the parking waiter, and started the car and left quickly.

On the way back, he was still thinking about Robert Fernandez's words. This art investment consultant said something is reasonable. In some American states, property taxes are terrible, and price increases such as hoarding houses can only lose money, but not all states do this.

Art is indeed priceless, but there is a fact that Robert Fernandez did not say that artists and works of art are valuable.

If it was a painting by Van Gogh, Leonardo da Vinci or Picasso, Matthew would definitely find a way to buy it, and modern artists don’t even have to consider it.

There are only so few famous Western painters he knows.

Matthew also had a certain skepticism about the ability to monetize art. He once read on some online reports that the artwork was not really hot at that time, but was produced by auction houses, domestic and foreign speculators and media.

He has no way to determine whether this kind of thing is true or false. With his former standard of living, he cannot reach this level.

After watching this exhibition, Matthew also fully recognized Helen Hermann's words, and the investment in art must be cautious and cautious.

Instead of investing in an industry that is completely unaware of and even Helen Hermann is uncertain, it is better to continue buying Apple stocks steadily. The five million dollars he invested before, after the long-term and unremitting acquisitions of stock brokers, have basically become Apple stocks circulating in the market.

Matthew's requirements are very simple. No matter how much Apple's stock price is, you can buy all the stocks you can buy. Anyway, the kidney machine has not yet been released, and so far, I have not seen news about Apple developing smartphones in the media or other news. Apple's stocks will definitely have a lot of room for appreciation in the future.

Even if he made a mistake, Apple's stock will not rise sharply, but with kidney mechanisms, the investment will definitely not be a problem to maintain the value of the funds invested.

Matthew also planned this year's income. The $800 basic salary for "National Treasure" has been paid, and the crew also paid $3 million for "Mr. Smiths" and the rest will be paid within this year.

In addition to the later sharing of "Dawn of the Living Dead", he soon gathered a large amount of funds.

After years, Matthew has completely understood that lying in the bank is not only a waste of money, but also a large amount of taxes, which is far less cost-effective than investing.

However, he is very cautious and will not trust people easily. For example, the stock broker will have no less regulatory measures.

Next is the former Nicholas Cage, who later fell to the embarrassment of going to the other side of Taiping to earn money by taking bad movies, and also gave Matthew enough warnings, that managers or investment consultants must be strictly prevented.

In this regard, let alone these people, even Helen Hermann was on guard against it.

Some people may think he is too suspicious, but Matthew always believes that suspicion is definitely a good quality for a person who is rich but lacks the ability to manage funds.

Matthew made two plans for the money he had. On the one hand, he continued to buy Apple's stocks and how much he could buy before the kidney machine was listed; on the other hand, he bought a luxury house that belonged to him.

He is still looking for this. The mansion borrowed by the crew when filming "National Treasure" did not give him any chance to take action, so someone bought it.

Beverly Hills property has always been very popular.
