Chapter 861 Dare to think and dare to do

Qi Tongwei did what he said and started to prepare for the exhibition. He contacted the local museum, hoping to get their support and cooperation. The museum was very interested in the proposal, and the two sides soon reached a cooperation intention. During the preparation process, Qi Tongwei met a famous art critic Su Ran. Su Ran appreciated Qi Tongwei's public welfare concept and took the initiative to help plan the exhibition content to make the exhibition more professional and ornamental.

However, things did not go so smoothly. Just when the preparations for the exhibition were in full swing, some negative news quietly spread. Some people questioned Qi Tongwei's motives for holding the exhibition, believing that he wanted to use antiques to hype himself and seek personal gain. These rumors quickly spread on the Internet, and for a time, public opinion put great pressure on Qi Tongwei and the charity fund.

Faced with these doubts, Qi Tongwei felt helpless and angry. He held a press conference to explain in detail the original intention and purpose of holding the exhibition, and showed the appraisal report of the antiques and the preparation plan for the exhibition, hoping to clarify the facts. However, some people still doubted this and thought he was just doing superficial work.

At this critical moment, Liang Lu always stood firmly by Qi Tongwei. She encouraged Qi Tongwei not to be defeated by these rumors and to believe that those who are innocent will be cleared. At the same time, she also used her personal connections to help Qi Tongwei conduct crisis public relations and explain the truth of the matter to his friends and the media.

Su Ran also played an important role at this time. Relying on his influence in the art world, he published a series of articles and comments to speak for Qi Tongwei. He introduced in detail the value of antiques and the significance of the exhibition, and emphasized Qi Tongwei's dedication and contribution to public welfare. Under his leadership, many well-known figures in the art world came out to support Qi Tongwei, and the direction of public opinion gradually changed.

After some efforts, the public welfare art exhibition was finally held as scheduled. At the exhibition site, exquisite antiques and precious calligraphy and paintings attracted many visitors. Qi Tongwei personally served as a narrator, telling everyone the stories and cultural connotations behind each exhibit. The audience was shocked by these ancient works of art, and also admired Qi Tongwei's public welfare spirit.

During the exhibition, Qi Tongwei also arranged several charity auctions, auctioning some of the exhibits and donating all the proceeds to the charity fund. This exhibition not only allowed more people to understand history and culture, but also raised a lot of funds for charity, and was a complete success.

Through this exhibition, Qi Tongwei not only made new breakthroughs in public welfare, but also accumulated rich experience in the field of art. His love for art became stronger and stronger, and he began to study antique identification and art appreciation in depth. He often participated in various art seminars and auctions, and met many like-minded friends.

At an auction, Qi Tongwei met a mysterious collector named Chen Feng. Chen Feng was very interested in Qi Tongwei's public welfare art exhibition and took the initiative to talk to him. During the conversation, Qi Tongwei found that Chen Feng not only had unique insights into antiques, but also had a deep passion for public welfare. The two had a great conversation and soon became friends.

Chen Feng invited Qi Tongwei to visit his private museum. There, Qi Tongwei saw many precious cultural relics and artworks, which opened his eyes. Chen Feng also told Qi Tongwei that he had a batch of traditional handicrafts that were about to be lost, and hoped to cooperate with Qi Tongwei to pass on these traditional handicrafts through public welfare.

Qi Tongwei was very interested in this proposal. He knew that traditional handicrafts were the treasures of national culture, but many of them were now facing the dilemma of being lost. If more people could understand and learn these traditional handicrafts through the power of public welfare, it would not only pass on culture, but also provide new employment opportunities for people in poor areas.

After returning home, Qi Tongwei discussed the matter with Liang Lu. Liang Lu was very supportive of his idea, and the two began to jointly plan a traditional handicraft inheritance project. They invited professional craftsmen to serve as mentors, established a handicraft training base in poor areas, and provided free training courses for local young people.

After the project was launched, it was warmly welcomed by the local people. Many young people signed up for the training. They developed a strong interest in handicrafts and were enthusiastic about learning. Under the guidance of the instructors, they quickly mastered the basic handicraft skills and began to make exquisite handicrafts.

In order to promote these handicrafts, Qi Tongwei once again used the e-commerce platform to open a traditional handicrafts section. Once the handicrafts were launched online, they were loved and sought after by consumers. Orders came in like snowflakes, which not only brought income to local craftsmen, but also made more people understand the charm of these traditional handicrafts.

With the continuous development of the traditional handicraft inheritance project, Qi Tongwei's public welfare undertakings have reached a new peak.

His name gradually became well-known in the public welfare and cultural fields. Media from all over the world reported his deeds, and many public welfare organizations also extended olive branches to him, hoping to cooperate with him to carry out more meaningful projects. However, behind this seemingly smooth development, the undercurrent of fate was quietly surging.

The surge in orders made Qi Tongwei realize that it was difficult to meet market demand by relying solely on existing training bases and craftsmen. So he decided to expand the project, establish training bases in more impoverished areas, and recruit more young people to participate in the inheritance of handicrafts. In order to achieve this goal, he traveled around, communicated and coordinated with local government departments, and strived for policy support and site resources.

During this process, Qi Tongwei met an entrepreneur named Lin Yu. Lin Yu has made great achievements in the business field, especially in resource integration and market development. He became very interested in Qi Tongwei's traditional handicraft inheritance project and took the initiative to propose cooperation with him. "Mr. Qi, I think your project has great potential. It can not only help people in poor areas get rid of poverty and become rich, but also inherit and promote traditional culture. I have some resources and channels that can help you make this project bigger and stronger." Lin Yu said sincerely.

Qi Tongwei was moved by Lin Yu's proposal. He knew that if he wanted to achieve greater development of the project, his own strength alone was far from enough. Lin Yu's joining would undoubtedly inject new vitality into the project. So the two hit it off and jointly established a company that specializes in the production, sales and promotion of traditional handicraft products.

After the company was established, Lin Yu fully utilized his business talents, quickly formed a professional operation team, and repackaged and repositioned the products.
