golden escape

Seeing Fang You's demeanor and movements that were indistinguishable from his own, Elder Wang smiled gratifiedly. Why did he escape? That period of humiliating history must be faced head-on. No matter where these cultural relics are placed, they still belong to the Chinese ones represent Chinese culture.

Those robbers don't even have the slightest sense of shame, and some of them are proud of it. Then why do they, who are the original owners of cultural relics, need to escape, why don't they want to see these cultural relics.

Mr. Wang has always believed that all these cultural relics will return to China. It may take decades or hundreds of years, but they will definitely come back. This is the belief he has always insisted on, even if he cannot see it later. But still unwavering.

He understands very well that the country is now keeping a low profile, numbing the enemy, and then slowly developing and growing. When the country is strong enough to become the number one in the world, then the cultural relics stolen by these countries do not need to be asked for by themselves, and they will take the initiative to return them.

But during this period, it is impossible to do nothing in any world, just like Fang You said, if you can't even do basic anger and desire, then in the future, even if the country becomes stronger, I am afraid that these cultural relics will be destroyed. It will also be forgotten by all the people, even by those in power.

He doesn't know about others, but he knows that the young man Fang You beside him is a person who is very concerned about the lost cultural relics, and he has great ability. His attainments in antiques are far beyond what other people can compare.

What made him most gratified was Fang You's attitude of daring to face it. Only in this way could he get rid of his fear and find a better way to bring back these cultural relics. In order to bring back some Chinese cultural relics, Fang You even went to auction I bought two national treasures of the small island country that I just got. If I were someone else, I would rather have the national treasures than exchange for these fine Chinese cultural relics that may not be as precious as the national treasures.

Wang Lao felt that as long as there were more people like Fang You in Huaxia, coupled with the power of the country, the cultural relics lost overseas would slowly come back.

During the afternoon, Fang You, Wang Lao and others watched most of the exhibits in the Louvre, among which treasures looted from foreign countries accounted for a large part. If the foreign cultural relics in the Louvre were all The country where they are located recovers, then, the Louvre, a world-class art palace, will really cease to exist, and the rest is basically just an empty shell. This has to be said to be the tragedy of French culture. .

After the visit, it was time for dinner. With the lessons learned from the dinner a few days ago, some scholars from Huaxia discussed together, and then Mr. Wang suggested to the Louvre that there is no need to prepare dinner every day, and let them solve it by themselves. Well, the French cultural department and the Louvre naturally agree that although it is at public expense, a dinner in a five-star hotel is not cheap.

Now, after visiting and saying goodbye to the staff of the Louvre, Fang You and Wang Lao took everyone to Chinatown where Paris is located. There is a familiar smell everywhere, signs written in Chinese characters, and those The traditional Chinese items that are constantly being sold on the street really make people feel like they are back home.

There are many places where Chinese people live concentratedly in Paris. The place where Fang You and Wang Lao came to is the largest Chinese gathering area in Paris. There are various Chinese restaurants, supermarkets selling Chinese food, and even some familiar domestic restaurants. Instant noodles can be found in supermarkets.

Mr. Wang has worked in the Palace Museum for decades, but he has been to Paris a few times. At this time, he took everyone into a Chinese restaurant with ease, took a look at the door, and then greeted the owner warmly.

The boss was a middle-aged man. When he saw Mr. Wang, he immediately invited Mr. Wang in a little excitedly, arranged a private room, and went to the kitchen to prepare meals.

According to Mr. Wang, this middle-aged man is a bit fond of antiques. When he came here for the first time to eat, he only gave pointers. This is why the middle-aged man thanked him. Every time he came, he personally Cooking in the kitchen, the meals it makes are much more delicious than those in ordinary restaurants.

When the food was served, the fragrance was overflowing, which made all the cultural relics scholars who were tired of eating western food move their index fingers. Under the sound of Mr. Wang opening the meal, everyone picked up their chopsticks and had a full meal. Only in a foreign country can you eat Understand how delicious the food you usually eat is rare.

After drinking and eating, Fang You and the others chatted in the restaurant for a while, then walked around Chinatown, and then returned to the hotel where they were staying.

Not long after returning to the hotel, Fang You received the latest information from the French Intelligence Liaison Station. Tang Jinmo and the others had already arrived in Paris this morning, and were arranged by the Liaison Station staff into the house in the suburbs. Looking forward to meeting him.

Moreover, Tang Jinmo himself sent information to Fang You through his personnel. The three people he brought were completely trustworthy and reliable, so Fang You did not need to worry.

Looking at the information sent by Tang Jinmo, Fang You's heart warmed, and he couldn't help but smile. Even without Tang Jinmo's information, he could still know whether these three people were reliable. , all mastered, even some secret things.

In European and American countries, the capabilities of the Dragon War intelligence organization may not be very great, but in Asia and Africa, the capabilities of the intelligence organization are very strong.

According to the news from Longzhan Intelligence Headquarters, the three people brought by Tang Jinmo have the skills he needs, and the three of them are brothers with the same father and mother. Some cultural relics were shot to death by the people of the small island nation. They were very angry with the people of the small island nation, and they also hated those robbers who robbed the Chinese cultural relics.

Tang Jinmo met them in the small island country, and their purpose of going to the small island country was different from Tang Jinmo. Tang Jinmo went to the small island country only to copy the Chinese treasures of calligraphy and painting in the major museums of the small island country, so that Chinese people would not go abroad , You can also see these precious paintings and calligraphy.

But the three brothers came here to retaliate against these small islanders who robbed their homes of cultural relics. The three brothers began to learn cultural relics since they were young, and then began to imitate cultural relics. After decades of continuous practice, they are now In the middle age, his imitation skills are already very powerful. Although he cannot avoid some experts with deep eyesight, it is still not a problem to fool ordinary second- and third-rate experts.

When they were successful in their skills, they came to the small island country, constantly imitating antiques and cultural relics, and then sold them to the people of the small island country through underground channels. They wanted these people to get retribution, mistakenly thinking that the heirlooms they sold were actually just imitations. It's just a fake.

The three brothers dabble in imitation of various types of cultural relics, but only one is the most proficient. The three brothers are different, some are proficient in porcelain, some are proficient in bronze, and some are proficient in jade. proficient.

By chance, Tang Jinmo met the three brothers. After the three brothers learned of Tang Jinmo's purpose in coming to the small island country, they immediately admired them. Although the three of them only wanted revenge, they also had interests, but Tang Jinmo, But it is only for the Chinese people to see these cultural relics. For this reason, the three brothers and Tang Jinmo have become best friends in the constant exchanges over the years.

When Fang You was about to ask him to find a few people and go to France, he thought about it, and after asking Fang You for confirmation, he told the three people about Fang You's identity. What they have done will further increase the three people's approval of this incident and increase the chances of going to France.

Knowing who they were working for this time, and knowing that Fang You obtained many looted cultural relics from the small island country through his own means, they were very excited, as if they had found the organization all at once.

Although the three of them made fakes in China, most of them were sold to foreigners, or they were sold abroad through underground channels.

His grandfather was originally a collector of cultural relics. There were cultural relics left by his ancestors and his own collection in his home. My father was in his prime at the time, and wanted to rush out to fight with them, but his grandma pulled him abruptly, saying that if you fight to the death with them, who will avenge you.

More than ten years later, when they were born, they followed their father to learn knowledge of cultural relics. After being instilled from childhood to adulthood, they hated these small islanders who robbed them of their cultural relics. A hundred times the money to buy a worthless fake.

After meeting Tang Jinmo later, they felt that there was nothing wrong with revenge, but they still needed to take back Huaxia's cultural relics and his grandfather's cultural relics when they were revenged.

They knew something about Fang You before, but they were not as specific as what Tang Jinmo said. In order to return the Chinese cultural relics, they did not hesitate to exchange two national treasures of the small island country. Compared with Fang You, they seemed to be three people who were hated. The blinded people don't know what they should do, but now they understand that they will do their best to help Fang You this time.

Although they don't know what cultural relics Fang You needs them to imitate, they will try their best to do it no matter what, just because they admire everything Fang You has done, that's all.

They don't lack money. The ability of the three of them to imitate cultural relics is enough to fool second- and third-rate experts, not to mention those half-baked antique dealers. A few casually made pieces are enough for them to live for a long time. What they lack It is precisely the belief of Brother Tang and Fang You to work hard for the return of Chinese cultural relics.

Thinking back on some things about the three brothers, Fang You smiled slightly. It was precisely because he had read the information of the three brothers that he recognized the reliable surnames of the three brothers.

When he learned that the three people Tang Jinmo was looking for were brothers, Fang You couldn't help being a little surprised. It's not uncommon for a family of brothers to do counterfeiting of cultural relics, but each of the three brothers is proficient in a skill of counterfeiting cultural relics. Very few.

Most of the family-run counterfeiting workshops focus on imitating a certain type of cultural relics. For example, the porcelain counterfeiting that Fang You encountered in Tianjing last time, from family members to relatives, all counterfeit porcelain. This type, the effort it puts in is far beyond ordinary people.

In this interest society, there will always be some people who are not driven by interests. Tang Jinmo, these three brothers are all like this.

Now that Tang Jinmo and the others have arrived in Paris, it is time to meet with them and confirm the implementation time of the plan. After all, he is very good at appraising antiques, but he is not good at imitating cultural relics, and there is no way to know that a cultural relic How long does it take from imitation to final completion.

Fang You smiled, and sent a message to Tang Jinmo through the liaison staff of the hotel where he was staying, asking them to meet tomorrow night in Chinatown in the [-]th arrondissement of Paris. After all, Chinatown is full of Asian faces, which is very conducive to the concealment of the meeting. The house where the four of Tang Jinmo lived must be completely kept secret, otherwise if it is exposed, the consequences will be disastrous.

After seeing off the liaison staff, Fang You smiled, looked at the still bright night in Paris, and said softly in his heart, the plan will officially start tomorrow, Christie's auction house, I hope you don't let me down.

The next day was the date for the cultural relics appreciation seminar held by the Louvre and the Palace Museum. Perhaps it should be called the arena of competing for treasures, which is more appropriate.

This time, counting the two treasures upstream, the Palace Museum has brought a total of 22 national treasures. If the Bureau of Cultural Relics hadn’t known that the French side might have ulterior motives this time, there would have been more cultural relics brought.

After the meeting, these cultural relics will also be put out for viewing by people from France and the world.

Of course, in addition to exchanges on cultural relics, there will be follow-up exchanges between the two countries on the experience of cultural relics research to truly achieve the meaning of exchanges.

At the end of the whole exchange activity, it was when Fang You performed on the stage with the qin around beams. At that time, all those who watched the performance and listened to the sound of the Chinese Guqin would be deeply shocked. This came from China. Wang Lao and everyone else believed in it.

Before, they listened to the qin sound uploaded from the Internet, and they were already very surprised. After Fang You played a piece of zither on the qin in the Palace Museum, they were completely astonished. With the deepening of the study of Chinese culture, They can better understand the meaning of this zither sound, just like what most people say, this zither sound is a fairy sound that only exists in the sky and is rarely heard in the world.

Due to the limitation of the venue of the appreciation meeting, oversized statues like Venus and mummies stolen from Egyptian pyramids could not be moved here. Basically, both parties took small cultural relics.

"This is a picture scroll of women in honor painted by Gu Kaizhi, a famous artist in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The original is nowhere to be found. This is a picture scroll copied by people in Song Dynasty. Gu Kaizhi is a famous painter in ancient China, and the most famous painting of Luoshen in the Palace Museum. It was drawn by him. The content of this pair of women's pictures is to praise the wise virtues of ancient women. There are 28 people painted on the picture, with a total of eight sections. Each paragraph is a story with a eulogy and a name written on it...."

Wang Lao smiled, first took out a picture scroll, put it on the long table in the middle, for the people communicating with each other to watch, and explained to the people in the Louvre what the picture scroll represented in plain language. meaning.

Looking at this picture scroll, Fang You smiled slightly. When he went to the Palace Museum for the first time to participate in the antiques exchange meeting, he had already enjoyed the shopping in the Palace Museum with Mr. Wang. Some precious cultural relics , I saw everything thoroughly.

Speaking of Gu Kaizhi, it is natural that the painting of Luoshen Fu is the most famous, and it is a cultural relic that is prohibited from being exhibited abroad by the state. However, the painting of Luoshen Fu and this painting of Lie Nu are both copies of the Song Dynasty, and the original work has long since fallen into the Ming Dynasty. Very precious, these facsimiles are very solid original works, which provide great help for the study of ancient paintings.

Some Chinese cultural relics researchers at the Louvre immediately took out a magnifying glass to look carefully. Chinese paintings are very beautiful, and often contain many mysteries and meanings.

Afterwards, the Louvre first took out a high-quality painting for communication purposes. That painting is Leonardo da Vinci's Madonna of the Rocks, created in the [-]th century.

Speaking of Da Vinci, most people in the world know that Da Vinci is not French, but Italian, and he is one of the three masters of the Italian Renaissance and the most perfect representative of the entire European Renaissance.

He is knowledgeable, not only a painter, but also a mathematician, astronomer, fabler, inventor...etc. He can be described as a brilliant man with countless abilities.

The pinnacle of his paintings is the world-renowned Mona Lisa, but this piece of the Virgin of the Rock family is also one of the most outstanding paintings he painted in his life.

However, most people know Da Vinci because of the book The Da Vinci Code, which broke the sales record of Tie Lijian and became the best-selling book in history. Keep reading this book.

There are a lot of cultural relics in the Louvre, and most of them are treasures, but a large part of these cultural relics are not often exhibited. It is impossible for many people to see the entire collection of the Louvre. For the Chinese cultural relics community like Wang Lao and the others who came to communicate, the cultural relics of the Louvre they saw were only four or five out of ten. If so, it is already very shocking.

Next, Mr. Wang took out several paintings again, most of which were masterpieces from other countries, not cultural relics from the French mainland. In the end, the exchange staff of the Louvre actually took out Chinese calligraphy and painting works to show Communicate with people from China. (To be continued.)
