Live Appreciation, Congratulations to Brother

What is the British Museum?
Zhang Yang felt that the sudden words coming from the other side were just to disgust him.

Maybe it’s because the British Museum was frequently searched for some time ago?

There was another entry at that time:

[No Chinese can walk out of the British Museum with a smile]

So Mrs. Xu took it for granted that Zhang Yang would also be angry.

In fact, nothing happened to him.

Just some time ago, Chen Yanguang told Chu Ziqiang that the fake Chenghua Doucai chicken bowl cup in the British Museum has been copied.

The mole at the museum is currently being contacted.

Let’s see when the civet cat can be replaced by the prince, and the real thing in the museum can be replaced.

Zhang Yang was fine, but someone among the old experts next door must have been really angry.

Across the wall, Zhang Yang could hear the sound of banging on the table next door.

It's so loud.

Being so angry is probably because I was disgusted by the British Museum.

This is exactly what happened.

There were four experts from the Provincial Museum next door, and two of them were red-hot.

The person who banged the table just now was so excited that he accidentally knocked his coffee on the computer.

Now the keyboard is making a sizzling sound.

But he didn't care at all.

He was still staring at the big screen, as if he wanted to get into the screen and go to England to bring back all the antiques from Mrs. Xu's house.

When Zhang Yang hung up the microphone, everyone relaxed a little.

The leader of the team was Deputy Director Ou of the Provincial Museum. He did not have a red temperature, so he very calmly asked the person in charge of the cultural relics recovery task force:

"Team Leader Chang, is there any way to do this?"

"I think the other party's behavior is already provocative. Although there are no national treasure-level cultural relics, there are enough of them. It should be enough for you to establish an internal project, right?"

"Director Ou, please don't be impatient."

Team leader Chang calmly comforted everyone and said:
"The person who Director Zhang Lianmai is looking at probably doesn't know we are watching."

"So she is not actually provoking us, but simply wants to disgust Director Zhang."

"So?" Another expert who became red-hot immediately retorted, "Instead of mocking us, we can be like turtles and pretend that nothing happened?"

"You won't find reasons to ignore me again, will you?"

"You don't care about what happened last time. How many times has it happened?"

"I really doubt where you spent the annual cultural relics recovery funds. Isn't it all about eating and drinking?"

"Teacher Zeng, don't talk nonsense!"

Team Leader Chang, who was labeled as such, also had a temper and said angrily:
"Do you think we don't want to pursue it?

But first of all, they are not citizens of our country;
Secondly, the items were exported from China a hundred years ago, and there is no substantial evidence to prove that they are items from the Forbidden City.

We just can't do anything about them! "

"So? Just pretend you can't hear? If you don't use your ears, you can donate them to people in need." Teacher Zeng mocked.

"Okay, okay, don't argue about these things."

Deputy Director Ou stood up to maintain discipline at the venue:
"Let's talk in detail when Zhang Yang comes over."

"I have no problem." Team Leader Chang immediately agreed.

In his opinion, the crux of the matter lies with Zhang Yang.

If Zhang Yang hadn't had connections with Yanjing, this matter wouldn't have reached the level it is now.

As long as Zhang Yang is persuaded to give up, the words of these old guys won't matter at all.

Anyway, it’s not just once or twice that he offended people in Shengbo.

……

Zhang Yang was actually outside the door a long time ago.

But he didn't knock on the door immediately. Instead, he listened to the noise in the corridor for a while.

He also wanted to know how these people planned to deal with this matter.

Sending official letters directly should be of no use at all.

When it came to negotiating with the collector, Zhang Yang thought about Mrs. Xu's attitude and felt that the possibility of communication was lower than the possibility of the British Museum taking the initiative to return the cultural relics.

If we force it, the other party will immediately use the banner of the British Museum and make a "paid donation" or something.

Soft or hard, they all seem to be difficult.

Are we going to take the path that Chu Zhenmin hates the most - spending money to buy back cultural relics?
That's not a small amount of money.

Don't look at the items passed down from Mrs. Xu's ancestors. They are worth tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but they can't stand up to the large quantity.

Altogether, it is estimated to be tens of millions.

This is still the market price.

If someone from the State Administration of Cultural Heritage goes to repurchase it, the other party will definitely increase the price, and the total quotation may be doubled by then.

Zhang Yang really couldn't think of any other solution.

So I waited outside the corridor for a while.

Unexpectedly, the four experts in the room and the people from the five special teams came to the conclusion that:
Wait until Zhang Yang comes.

Zhang Yang smelled the familiar smell of black pot.

If it weren't for the good relationship with the experts from the Provincial Museum, Zhang Yang would have really wanted to open the door and say:

"Why don't you just disband?"

Now, you still have to knock politely first.

After the door opened, Zhang Yang waved and greeted everyone:
"Hello, everyone is here."

"There should be no problem with my identification just now, right?"

"No problem." Deputy Curator Ou said with approval.

"Come on, Zhang Yang, we are all one of our own, come and sit here." Teacher Zeng actively invited.

Of course Zhang Yang would not be polite.

These are all contacts accumulated in the past.

Although it is not a very strong relationship, because I am a junior, these old experts are still willing to support me.

After Zhang Yang took his seat, Deputy Director Ou cleared his throat and asked very gently:
"Director Zhang, do you have any ideas about the Xu family's cultural relics in the Forbidden City?"

"My idea is that we must get them back; but we can't let the person named Xu take any advantage."

"There were already a lot of doubts online about the British Museum matter."

"If we let this group of people open a new museum in Australia, wouldn't it be a slap in our face if it was published in newspapers, trending searches, etc.?"

As soon as Zhang Yang finished speaking, Teacher Zeng slammed the table and shouted:
"it is good!"

"Xiao Zhang is right. His thoughts are my thoughts. People like them who smuggle cultural relics out of the country cannot be allowed to take advantage."

"Ahem!" Team leader Chang pretended to cough twice, "Actually, Director Zhang is worried about public opinion. We can find a way to solve it."

"First of all, we can remove the trending search. If we can't suppress it, let people from the brother department make trouble for the celebrity to divert attention."

"Once the heat is over, no one will care about it."

"As for museums in Australia, to be honest, if they are opened in a remote place like Tu'ao, they won't be popular at all unless reporters are covering them."

"Isn't this still a turtle?"

"Team Leader Chang, are you a tortoise? Are you uncomfortable if you don't shrink into your shell?" Teacher Zeng asked angrily.

"What does this have to do with turtles?"

"Teacher Zeng, please don't look for trouble, okay? I'm having a serious discussion with Director Zhang. I think his concerns are reasonable, but they are not impossible to solve."

"Understand?"

"I don't understand at all." Zhang Yang shook his head.

"Then let me explain it again..."

"No, please listen to my other idea first."

Zhang Yang interrupted the other party and told him something that suddenly occurred to him during Lian Mai.

There are actually many people like Mrs. Xu overseas.

Although they are not necessarily the same as her, both have the same surname as Aixinjueluo and have such a strong family background, their attitudes towards the country are the same.

I hate them all. The British Museum is a little better, because it has an official background and has become more restrained in recent years.

It's the kind of place where you won't be disgusted if you don't visit its museum.

But even so, there will still be a large number of pure and filial sons who will stand up and say that they have preserved the antiques very well.

Some people even donated stolen cultural relics to them.

This would have allowed someone named Xu to raise the flag in the name of a private museum.

Not only will there be "tap water" in China to help promote it, but it is deliberately used to disgust people.

There will definitely be other cultural relics living abroad that will be sent to this museum for display.

Maybe we can put together a Qing Dynasty "palace" in Australia.

It will be lively then.

It is estimated that every once in a while, these people will criticize domestic cultural and cultural workers in international news.

What, you unearthed new bronze vessels?
Then look at the bronzes sold by Lu Qinzhai, do they look familiar to you?
It makes me sick just thinking about it.

"Team Leader Chang, how do you solve this problem?" Zhang Yang asked.

"In fact, it's not difficult. Just block it directly."

"Then you are invincible."

Zhang Yan shrugged and lay down on the chair.

Is there any need to discuss this? To put it bluntly:
As long as you can't hear, just pretend that the other person has nothing to say and has no opinion.

It doesn't matter if you cover the other person's mouth, stuff stinky socks into the other person's mouth, or even make the other person mute.

"Zhang Yang, don't be discouraged."

Deputy Curator Ou came out to pretend to be a good person:
"We can discuss this matter in the long run."

"It's normal for cultural relics to be returned to the country for more than ten or twenty years. If you don't believe me, you can ask Team Leader Chang and the others."

"Yes, that's true." Team Leader Chang chimed in, "The batch of cultural relics we received last year were the ones that were auctioned in Seattle in 04."

"It should have been stolen by grave robbers in China and sold."

"Afterwards, I traveled to many countries, and we had people following me all the time. In June last year, I finally returned from Belgium."

"Really?" Zhang Yang smiled nonchalantly.

He took out his cell phone from his pocket and checked what Team Leader Chang had said.

It turned out that this happened.

At that time, a Han Dynasty painted horse-riding pottery figurine, two Tang Dynasty white porcelain horse sculptures, a Ming Dynasty Cizhou kiln white ground black flower pot, and an ancient Yuan Dynasty coin were returned.

The total market price, Zhang Yang roughly estimated, should be no more than 50,000 yuan if all are considered fine products.

Looking back 19 years, the media resources occupied by the final report, the reporters interviewed, and the cost of holding the handover ceremony should add up to more than , right?
Not to mention the manpower and material resources consumed in the process.

It turns out that Team Leader Chang and the others are so productive!
Zhang Yang already understood.

"I understand, Team Leader Chang, you are indeed working very hard."

"About this matter, I'm just fulfilling my civic duty. Director Chu happens to be very interested in this kind of thing, so I informed him."

"I still have something to do over there in Xiangjiang, so I'll go through the border while it's still early."

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he stood up directly.

There was no need for him to waste words with these people.

"What a coincidence, so am I. I still have something to do at home."

Teacher Zeng also stood up following Zhang Yang.

He scolded Zhang Yang and said:
"Xiao Zhang, please don't bother Director Ou, Team Leader Chang and the others with matters like this in the future."

"You know, there are more than 1000 million items floating around in our country. How can we control them?"

"If you don't tell them, they don't know about it, so they won't be responsible."

"I understand." Zhang Yang nodded, "It's true that I didn't think it through well this time, and I won't do it again in the future."

After saying that, Zhang Yang stood up and prepared to leave.

At this time, Team Leader Chang, who was so angry, also stood up, pointed at Zhang Yang and Teacher Zeng and said:
"Zhang Yang! The surname is Zeng!"

"Don't you two just sing together here? I'm telling you..."

"Hey, I'm talking! Why are you leaving?"

Zhang Yangcai ignored him and went out directly.

Dial Chu Zhenmin's phone number.

"What's wrong, Zhang Yang? Has the discussion concluded?"

Lao Chu thought Zhang Yang was here to announce the good news.

Little did they know that the talks had broken down.

"The results are out, this matter is over."

"To sum it up, it's because I talk too much." Zhang Yang smiled self-deprecatingly.

"what?"

Lao Chu asked in disbelief.

"What's going on? Are you being ignored by those old guys?"

"That's not true. It's just that everyone thinks this job is impossible, so just don't do it."

Zhang Yang had no doubt that if this was just an ordinary tomb robber carrying cultural relics out of the country, Team Leader Chang and the others would have been on their way to England by now.

But it’s hard to think about the loss of cultural relics a hundred years ago.

It's normal that they don't want to do it.

It's just that the various ways of looking for compensation are a bit disgusting.

"Don't want to do it? If you don't want to do it, just retire and go home like me. What's the point of occupying a latrine?"

"How difficult is it? Please tell me briefly."

Lao Chu also understood these people very well and asked Zhang Yang the most important questions directly.

Zhang Yang briefly explained the current situation.

After listening, Lao Chu also fell silent.

He couldn't think of a good solution for a while.

Finally I came up with an idea:
"Zhang Yang, I think you have to take action on this matter yourself."

"Didn't they ask you to be the curator? You agreed first, and after you went there, you tried your best to record the information of each item into our cultural relics system."

"We will then have evidence for recourse."

"If I go, can this still happen?"

Zhang Yang admires Chu Zhenmin a little, this is the generosity of the older generation.

A bit insidious, but just right for dealing with people like Mrs. Xu.

But Zhang Yang doesn't want to take up the post.

He had an easier way.

"When I had a video connection with them just now, the expert team had screen recordings and records. You can ask them directly for it."

"Oh? Really? That's easy." Chu Zhenmin replied overjoyed.

"OK, that's it for now."

Zhang Yang was about to hang up the phone when Lao Chu suddenly stopped him:

"Wait, let me ask you something, where is Chu Ziqiang? Why can't I contact him?"

"Hello? Are you hanging up now?"

"..."

Zhang Yang actually heard what Lao Chu asked, but still hung up the phone.

Chu Ziqiang is experiencing the most important moment in his life - learning how to chase girls.

At this moment, there can be no external interference at all.

Otherwise, his Taoist heart may be damaged.

Zhang Yang himself didn't even bother.

As soon as Zhang Yang returned to Xiangjiang, he went straight to Christie's headquarters.

They are preparing for this year's summer auction in Shenghai. They have not yet made up their minds about the selection of items to be auctioned and want to hear Zhang Yang's opinion. (End of chapter)
