Chapter 235: The proud collection of cultural relics

After the fierce war, the two who cleaned up the battlefield started the sage mode and stuck together to continue discussing the construction of the museum. Kayla felt that since he agreed to the one-half share allocation method, he must work hard not to let his lover's support. The water was drifting, so he was very interested in lying in Lei Tiantang's arms and chatting about his plans.
"What method do you plan to use to collect cultural relics for our museum? You know, although we have a lot of Egyptian cultural relics now, we are still too early to establish a private museum that can be commercialized!" Kaila asked curiously, although She herself knew many methods of collecting cultural relics, but she still wanted to know his thoughts.
"Lack of cultural relics? I remember that I still have a lot of salvaged cultural relics in Anka Exploration Company. I just ask them to send them. You will also choose the items they salvaged or unearthed in the future. Just follow the normal rules. It’s fine to pay them for the price of, even though it’s my company, but they have to pay dividends, so the money still has to be given.
I will also allocate 50 million US dollars to the museum every year. I believe that this money should be enough for some ordinary cultural relics collection. It can be used to buy cultural relics in the market, or you can take pictures of cultural relics you like at auctions.
If you are interested in some very expensive cultural relics and the money is not enough, you should contact me immediately, and I will give you money right away! "Lei Tiantang smiled and said his plan, isn't it just a question of money? Can't you buy cultural relics if you have money?
"Although you said that, I am very touched, but my dear, museums can't always rely on your funding to live their lives. It should have its own profitability, and if you want to make a profit, the museum must have characteristics and attract people. Visit and exchange.
You know, the United States is a big museum country. There are 5144 museums of various types across the country. This number far exceeds the combined of McDonald's restaurants (140,000) and Starbucks chain stores (110,000). Calculated by population, there is a museum with less than 10,000 people.
In the United States of America, when people think of museums, people first think of some world-famous museums, such as the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Guggenheim Museum, and the museums belonging to the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. These museums attract a lot of visitors. By.
However, in addition to large museums, the main force of museums in the United States is small private museums. According to statistics from the Museum and Library Service Association, among the 250,000 museums that file tax returns with the IRS, 150,000 have an annual income of less than US$10,000. In addition, there are also a large number of family-run individual museums. This is how we Americans love museums.
Museums throughout the United States include art museums, children's museums, history museums, natural museums, weapons museums, automobile museums, train museums, spy museums, news museums, clothing museums, stamp museums, architecture museums, folk art museums, jazz museums, fire Museum, Tractor Museum, Underground Salt Well Museum, Marine Pet Museum, Bad Art Museum, etc.
Among them, history museums have the largest number, accounting for 555 of the total, followed by comprehensive museums, accounting for 1.
From this data, you know how fierce the competition is for the history museums we opened! If our museum's cultural relics are not distinctive, there must be no way to attract people to visit! I don't want the museum's annual income to be only tens of thousands of dollars! "
Kayla obviously did her homework before. She opened her mouth to the data and expressed her concerns. Although she was very happy with her boyfriend's support, she didn't want him to take it lightly. In this case, the museum The issue of profitability is an issue that must be considered.
You must know that an investment of 200 million US dollars can build a large museum here! If the annual income of her museum becomes the same as that of a small museum, it would be a humiliation to her!
Lei Tiantang couldn't believe it when he heard that the American Emperor had so many museums! He hadn't noticed this before, and thought that as long as he invested a little money every year, he could make the museum run!
"I didn't expect the United States to have so many museums. If you want to stand out among so many museums, buying cultural relics from the market with money alone seems to be a supplement. Then can we pay back? How about continuing to invest in other archaeological teams like the last time you invested in Egyptian archaeology?
We spend money to let them go to archaeology, and then bring back the archaeological artifacts, so that our museum will also have some characteristic artifacts that other museums do not have. I think if we do this, the attraction of the museum should become very great. ? "Lei Tiantang thought for a while and said.
"Haha, dear, we really have a good heart. I also have this idea. Instead of spending a lot of money on the market and auction houses to buy cultural relics, it is better to continue to invest in some archaeological activities, but we cannot always be like Egypt. So lucky!
Because our competitors are also very large, those large museums will also invest in such archeological operations, it is still a bit difficult for us to compete with them! "
Although Kayla also has such a plan, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, but as she said, everyone is not a fool, so you can get a large number of cultural relics at one time. As long as it is a large museum with money, it is absolutely not. Will ignore it!
"What does that matter! Isn't it just competition? If it is better than investment, that museum can beat me, as long as we spend more money!" Lei Tiantang said with a smile.
"Oh, it's not as simple as what you said. The relationship between the large museums is intricate and complicated. The initiators of those archaeological activities may prefer to charge less and choose them under pressure!
And when the large museums collect cultural relics, some of the methods are very dirty, framed, hired to steal, etc. Even if we compete with them and win, after our cultural relics excavation is completed, they are very likely to hire directly The mercenaries came to rob!
This kind of thing has not happened once or twice. Almost everyone of us who studies history knows it! They were unwilling to invest in Professor Joseph in the last Egyptian archaeological operation, so we missed it! "
Kayla expressed her concern. Large museums have used more methods to collect cultural relics. The dark methods are not only what she said, so she did not say the method of collecting cultural relics in the first time.
