Chapter 1476 Frightened in a cold sweat!
In the afternoon, the Palace Museum.
The Chinese Art Exhibition held by the wenhua Department has come to an end.
Europeans and Americans are very fascinated by the traditional Chinese culture. Until today, many of them cannot understand how the soil can be burned into such exquisite porcelain.
Compared with Europeans and Americans who are only obsessed with porcelain, Southeast Asians prefer jade and bronze. Japanese and Koreans prefer Chinese paintings, especially Japanese, who are obsessed with ancient Chinese paintings to an extreme point. Can you imagine a country with its own national culture that will recognize the paintings of ancient painters from other countries as the national treasure of their own country?
No matter what, many foreigners like whether it is porcelain, jade, or ancient paintings, so every time the wenhua Department holds such an art exhibition, everyone likes to attend.
Anyway, participating is for food and accommodation, and you can get gifts every time, which is the same as the thousands of years of Chinese culture.
But this time, the gifts given by the wenhua department are a little different.
In addition to the normal gifts representing Chinese style, each person has a very exquisite rectangular box.
An impatient official from the Thai Cultural Association opened the box before he even walked out and saw a golden DreamPad.
"Huh?...this..."
He muttered, and a nobleman from an African emirates country whose skin was darker than him, smiled when he saw this, "What a rustic bun, a golden DreamPad is worth making a fuss? I also gave each of my wives a pink one!"
However, the Thai official did not speak, but instead sat on the ground in the museum hall. Holding the golden DreamPad, he quickly started to recite it.
Moreover, the Thai man's expression was becoming more and more solemn, his hands folded, his eyes were looking at DreamPad, and he kept muttering something in his mouth, as if he was in their Thai temple.
After he thought about this, the chief and nobleman didn't care much, but a Japanese next to him became interested.
You should know that there are generally two versions of Buddhist scriptures in this world. The first is the Sanskrit version, which is the ancient Hindi version; the other is the native language in which the Buddhist scriptures are spread.
Generally speaking, ordinary Buddhist believers can only read Buddhist scriptures in their own language. Although the charm is similar, they are actually somewhat different.
Only the most devout Buddhists can read the Buddhist scriptures in Sanskrit.
It just so happens that this Thai is a very devout Buddhist. What he is reading now is the authentic Sanskrit scriptures.
What's more coincidental is that the Japanese is also a devout Buddhist. He can also memorize this Sanskrit version of the Diamond Sutra as if he were to memorize it.
"You are the Diamond Sutra, right?"
Japanese are generally very polite. When he spoke in English, he slowly came over and looked at the back of the golden DreamPad. He saw rows of beautiful Sanskrit scriptures, and then looked at these small words carefully. It was indeed the Diamond Sutra!
When the Thai heard someone recognize him, he smiled slightly, but without saying a word, he continued to recite it directly.
The Japanese suddenly became hot and quickly opened their gift box. They opened the back of the golden DreamPad and looked at it. It was indeed a Sanskrit word called Diamond Sutra!
He also chanted the Sanskrit Diamond Sutra softly, and the two of them sang and were quite in harmony.
Their unique actions here made more people gather around. After figuring out what happened, almost everyone opened the gift box and looked at the back of their golden DreamPad.
"Oh my God, is this the New Testament? Excerpt from Mark's Gospel! O God!"
"This is a review of the new classics!"
"Mine is the Old Testament? Torah Genesis!!"
“Diamond Sutra!”
“…”
A group of people screamed excitedly, and those who were a little more pious began to recite the doctrines and scriptures of their beliefs, making the hall lively.
"Haha, this fairy company is really full of variety! Look at them excited!" An official whispered to the minister.
Deputy Minister Wu Zhu from the wenhua Department frowned a little when he saw this.
I used to entrust Fairy Company to customize gifts, but now it seems a bit inappropriate.
Thinking of this, he walked aside and dialed a number.
...
When Xiao Qi received a call from Niu Ruzheng, he was handling official business in Qiao Guoer's apartment.
Niu Ruzheng called, but he thought it was a good thing, but Niu Ruzheng scolded him.
"I said Xiao Qi, why are you doing those things when you have nothing to do? How can you give gifts something related to sect scriptures?"
"Uh... this is nothing, right? Uncle Niu, didn't you say that you would give them a gift to make them happy? Are they unhappy? No, I specifically investigated their preferences before customizing it!"
"They are very happy. They were still chanting there just now, but this is not the problem." Niu Ruzheng scolded: "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. Do you want to take this opportunity to promote your DreamPad in this way? Several major sects in the world and billions of believers, you have a good plan!!"
Xiao Qi scratched his head, "Is this a bad method?"
"What a big deal!" Niu Ruzheng cursed directly, "Is this thing possible for you as a businessman? Do you know how involved it is? If you engrave the scriptures on DreamPad, will no one think you are an insult to their scriptures? Will no one protest against you making money with this? If you make trouble, what will your reputation do? If you do something extreme, DreamPad may be stink!"
Xiao Qi was so scared that he was sweating.
He was indeed too young, thinking only about the benefits of the scriptures, but not about the other fanaticism of faith.
Are there fewer violent incidents every year due to these things?
Although he is not afraid of any danger, he is doing a global business!
If something extreme happens, what business is going on?
Hearing Xiao Qi not speaking, Niu Ru knew that he was thinking, so he paused for a while before saying, "I have asked someone to take back the customized DreamPad you sent out. You can quickly make a difference to compensate them. Or take out the customized DreamPad, and use any poems on the back, animal patterns, etc., as a compensation!"
"You took back these?" Xiao Qi was surprised and happy, almost thinking that he had heard it wrong.
"What else should I do? After this hole is opened, how can you deal with the rest of the people? You can only bite the bullet and offend people! I asked them to say that they had taken the wrong thing, these were just trial-made waste products, ready to be destroyed." Niu Ruzheng smiled bitterly, "Okay, don't say more, hurry up and do something beautiful, it's not in vain. I'll take care of this for you."
"Uncle Niu, you are really a benefactor!"
Xiao Qi was extremely moved. Niu Ruzheng was not responsible for this relationship.
After giving gifts, you have to grab them back. This is a shameful thing everywhere!
If the guests make a fuss, it will definitely make him feel uncomfortable.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Qi didn't even have time to worry about his money, and quickly remembered how to remedy it.
Well, I had their information before, and more than 30 of them liked antiques from China. If it really doesn’t work, I can only give them antiques!
Although it would cost at least tens of millions, now I apologize and can't take care of that much.
As for whether they will spread the news and whether anyone will be interested in it, Xiao Qi will not admit it even if he beats him to death, and will directly pretend to fire the staff who made mistakes and make a solemn statement.
Just as Niu Ruzheng said, doing business involves such things, it is simply seeking death!
Thinking of this, Xiao Qi quickly called Jiang Dahai: "Mr. Jiang, hurry up and find me a group of reliable antique experts. Let's go to Rongbaozhai and Panjiayuan to shop for goods!... Remember, I want real experts, I want to buy genuine products, do you know?"
