Su Jing went to Myriad Treasures Auction House with the Red sandalwood root, Bamboo and Stone Painting, Ambergris with Shen Hong and others and signed a contract.
After that, there was nothing Su Jing did. The disadvantage of sending the items to the auction house was that a commission fee would be deducted from the price. The advantages were that he didn’t have to do anything. Auctioning behavior was divided into many points, and they would naturally spare no effort to sell the items at a good price without Su Jing’s worry.
After returning home, Su Jing first sent a text message to Wu Min, and then sent a picture of the sperm whale to Wu Min’s mailbox.
Wu Min is sitting in his office. After receiving Su Jing’s text message, he learns that Su Jing sent a picture, but his interest is not high. Although Su Jing’s family lives at the seaside, the probability of taking precious marine life pictures is very low. Many people live on the seaside all their lives without seeing rare marine life. However, since Su Jing sent it, he still checked it out with his computer.
Opening the album, Wu Min’s calm eyes suddenly shrank.
Then, he quickly double-clicks the left button to enlarge the photo and looked at it again before rubbing his eyes hard, and then he looked at it for nearly ten seconds before finally believing in his eyes and his body trembles slightly with excitement.
In this picture, a sperm whale is biting a squid. It may be considered as a layman. However, Wu Min knows the preciousness of this picture very well. Although the shooting technique is not very clever but as long as it is clear, it will be of great value. This kind of photograph can be taken and it will burst. Often the time is fleeting, and there is no time to consider too many shooting techniques at all.
“What the…” A male colleague just walked by with his coffee in his hand, glanced at Wu Min’s computer screen and spouted out his coffee.
“A’Qiang, what the hell is wrong with you?” A female colleague who was sprayed with coffee on a table and splashed with a few drops of coffee roared.
“Yes, what is wrong with you?” Wu Min quickly turned off the photo and said calmly.
“Wu Min, did I see the picture just now? It’s not photoshopped, is it?” A’Qiang couldn’t believe it. How could sperm whales possibly be photographed hunting giant squid in the deep sea? How could it possibly appear on Wu Min’s computer?
“You guess.” Wu Min was so excited at the moment that he didn’t even have the heart to pay attention to A’Qiang. He took his laptop and hid in the toilet.
“A’Qiang, what did you see on Wu Min’s computer just now?” A female colleague who had just been sprayed with coffee noticed that Wu Min was somewhat mysterious and curious, and asked A’Qiang.
“A picture of a sperm whale catching squid,” A’Qiang said.
“Really?” The female colleague was surprised.
“You must have seen it wrong, Sperm whales hunt squid in the deep sea. They are usually about 800 meters deep, sometimes shallow, but that’s at least 300 meters deep. How can they be photographed so easily? On Wu Min’s computer, you must have seen a picture of sperm whales biting squid floating on the surface, which has been published for a long time.” A male colleague sitting next door said.
“That’s really a picture of the capture process. The sperm whale is biting the squid. It hasn’t bitten yet.” A’Qiang argues.
Many colleagues expressed their disbelief that, as a photographer and editor of Nature magazine, he knows a lot about many creatures and is naturally familiar with the well-known sperm whale. He knows how rare it is for a picture of a sperm whale catching squid. They didn’t take it seriously and were busy with other things.
In the toilet, Wu Min turned on his computer and continued to browse Su Jing’s album. He was shocked to find that this group of photos included the whole process of sperm whales chasing squid, biting squid and swallowing squid. Among them, chasing squid seemed to span a long distance. He really doesn’t know how it caught up with it.
Wu Min called Su Jing and said excitedly, “Where did you get these photos from Su Jing?”
Su Jing smiled and said, “I didn’t say earlier but my family house is at the seaside and I took the pictures while diving at sea once.”
Wu Min gave Su Jing a thumbs-up in the air. He could actually photograph the sperm whale’s squid-hunting process by diving. There were so many photographers and researchers who could not take a picture with so much effort and Su Jing actually took a whole set of pictures.
Wu Min couldn’t help but ask: “How deep were you diving?”
Su Jing was afraid that there was a loophole in what he said, so he simply said, “I didn’t notice how deep it was. Did you see all those pictures? Can you use them?”
Wu Min said excitedly, “We can use it. They are just too useful.”
Su Jing laughed and said, “You can use it. Just sign your name by the photographer, but give me the money.”
Wu Min said: “The money is of course for you, but can I really publish it in my name? You know, such photos may be collected by various newspapers, magazines, and collectors, which means that the photographers who took them will also become famous. “
Su Jing said: “I am not a photographer, I don’t care about this.”
Wu Min was silent for a moment and said, “Thank you. I’ll invite you to dinner another day.”
Wu Min felt a little ashamed. Before that, he did not look at Su Jing’s photos. Now Su Jing attributes the right of photo signature to himself. Even if he is silly enough, he knows that Su Jing is taking care of him. The right of photo signature can be said to be of great significance and may be a turning point in his career.
After Wu Min and Su Jing spoke on the phone, he took his computer and went directly to the editor-in-chief’s office.
After a while, Wu Min and the editor came out of the office together.
The editor-in-chief’s face was full of surprise as he said, “Let me announce that the next issue of marine life column, the theme, and photos have been selected, and congratulate Wu Min on his formal correction from today on. Don’t look for him for secretarial work in the future.”
A female colleague asked: “Editor, what is the subject of the selection?”
The editor-in-chief laughed and said, “Sperm whale’s predation process.”
The audience was stunned, and the faces were unbelievable.
Su Jing, the man who shocked the whole nature magazine, is feeding pets leisurely at the moment. Now that he can earn 10 million yuan, it relieves a lot of pressure and now he can do whatever he wants.
“ChipChipChip”
Su Jing was shocked to hear a sudden cry, which was not like the call of any pet he owned, and he could not translate them into words, which meant that the animal did not drip blood on Ten Thousand Beasts Tablet.
Su Jing looked around and saw a red fox standing in the corner. He supposed that it was attracted by the meat of Magical Beast. To Su Jing’s surprise, it had three long scars on its body, which seemed to be scratched by sharp paws, and half of his body was red with blood. How did it get here when it was so badly injured? He knows that there were Dogs in the front yard and back yard. Generally, when exotic creatures came in, they are caught by them and then they would take the captured animal to Su Jing.
Moreover, the fox’s fur looks so bright and its eyes are so bright and agile that it’s almost as if it had evolved from eating Magical Beast meat, but Su Jing is sure he never fed such red fox.
Su Jing stared at the red fox for a while, moved his adoptive mind and threw a small piece of Magical Beast meat towards the fox and as the other pets wanted to grab it, Su Jing stopped them.
The red fox looked at Su Jing warily, then went up, sniffed the meat of Magical Beast, bit it a little bit, then grabbed a small piece of Magical Beast, turned around and ran away, quickly turned over the fence of the gate and disappeared.
Su Jing was stunned. It was the first time that he saw an animal resist the temptation of Magical Beast meat and hold it in his mouth.
Su Jing cooked Magical Beast meat after feeding his pets, exercised spiritual force after eating enough, and slept at 12 p.m. At three or four in the morning, a long-lost bang sound woke up Su Jing.
Su Jing’s eyes suddenly opened, his palm slapped on the bedplate as he jumped up and ran quickly to the backyard.
