After Churchill's speech, Cash immediately returned to the Speaker's office to wait. The prime minister and Churchill, arm in arm, followed by a group of followers, came to the speaker's office. Cash immediately turned on the lights. Churchill was a little surprised and unhappy when he saw it. "What is this?" He whispered. ! "No one dared to explain to Churchill at this time."

Businessmen collect works of art to make money, which undoubtedly promotes the development of art. Chen comes from a wealthy family, and collects works of art to make money, but he has a gift for business. However, his logic is not like this. He announced that after his death, all his collections would be donated to the Ontario Museum of Art (AGO). "Leave it to the past. What do I need money for? Can I take it with me when I die? " Chen said in a high voice.

"The 1990s was the golden age for my collection of Cash's works. At that time, they were all bought in piles, instead of shopping one by one as they are now. I remember 1995, I went to the Montreal Star Archives, where there were 54 original cards 1 1x 14 cash for sale, and one card 150 dollars. Of course I didn't bargain. I bought it at one time. At that time, a white girl was in charge of some money. Maybe I haven't seen so many hundred-dollar bills, but I'm a little flustered. I can't believe I counted them correctly.

What I want to shoot most after becoming famous is Chairman Mao.

When Cash was alive, because of his fame, customers were all over the world, and it often took more than three years to be arranged to take pictures. Cash's 1955 photo quotation shows that the starting fee for taking a photo is $400.00 (about equal to the average salary of Canadians for two months at that time). And after 1980 is $ 10000.00 Canadian dollars. During his 66-year photography career, Cash shot more than 335,000 negatives. An average of 8800 a year.
