Rebirth of the Evil Life

Vol 2 Chapter 5131: Accidental collector

Lin Feng smiled.

Lin Feng was very satisfied with Ma Long's awakening. Your own little brother can't be a waste. Even if he is not capable, he cannot be without fighting spirit. To live, one must have the will to fight and the courage to face everything.

Although the previous blow was painful, if you are a man, you can't get down, you have to stand up. Hold your chest up and face everything. To regain everything that belongs to me, but to wash away my grievances. This is not in vain to be a strong man.

"As for how to do it, the first step is to take a bath, sleep, and rest! Everything will be discussed after dawn tomorrow!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

Malone nodded. At this moment, his heart knot is completely opened. He used to be very gloomy and wanted to take revenge, but he felt that revenge was useless and hopeless, but he was not very reconciled, but he was self-hypnotized. Not revenge may be the best ending. Under such a tangled situation, Ma Long's mood can be imagined. Now that everything was opened, he felt that everything in this world seemed so beautiful.

He really needs a good night's sleep.

"Boss, I'm going to rest. Are you resting here too? I prepared a room for you!" Ma Long said with a smile.

"Well, you go, don't worry about us." Lin Feng smiled, and then went to the living room, where Ivanka was still waiting at the moment.

"Is it resolved?" Ivanka asked.

Lin Feng nodded.

"Then let's go home, it's not early, I'm going home too." Ivanka looked at his watch, it was already 12 o'clock in the evening. This point. It was long past her schedule. If it were not for Lin Feng, she would have gone home to sleep long ago. As long as there is no work, she goes to bed at 10 o'clock every night. This work and rest time. She has maintained it for a long time.

"Uh, Ma Long is here to prepare a room for us!" Lin Feng's eyes gleamed.

"Hmph, if we each sleep in a room, I can stay here. Otherwise, I'll go home!" Ivanka couldn't see how Lin Feng was thinking. However, she also has her persistence. That is, absolutely different rooms before marriage.

Lin Feng suddenly looked like a frustrated balloon.

"Okay. I'll take you home!" Lin Feng curled his lips.

Ivanka snickered. It is always pleasant to see Lin Feng deflating.

Along the way. The two were very quiet, Lin Feng drove the car, and Ivanka sat aside, just admiring the scenery on the side of the road. He didn't say a word.

Lin Feng nodded secretly. Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, Ivanka is indeed worthy of a New York celebrity, and the most shining one among the celebrities. But she didn't ask, but she had something to say.

"Are you not curious about Malone?" Lin Feng asked.

"Curious? Women have a gossip heart. But when you want to say it, you will naturally say, "If you don't say it, then if I ask, you won't say it. Sometimes. Your men are the most important in our women." So don't mix it in to avoid messing up!" Ivanka said wisely.

Lin Feng's expression admired. but. I really have something to ask, so I need to open up the topic.

"Do you know about Ma Long?" Lin Feng asked.

"Know a little bit. After all, his business was considered a big deal in New York back then. Embezzlement of family assets, this is a big crime for the family!" Ivanka said, "At that time, the whole of New York was agitated. This is why Malone later You can only get along with some wealthy children or the sidelines of those big families."

"Except for this. What else do you know?" Lin Feng asked.

Ivanka shook her head. I haven't heard anything about the others. Although she heard this from Lin Fengkou, there should be some other inside stories. But for a family, such incidents are scandals, especially for large families, it will not let such incidents be exposed and shameless. It was embarrassing enough to break out of such a thing in the Adams family. Other things are naturally impossible to expose again.

What's the inside story? Ivanka was really curious, but she remained silent and did not ask curiously. Because there are some things, don't ask. Especially this involves a lot of * topics, let alone ask. Asked, sometimes it's not a good thing.

If a person is too curious, it is definitely not a good thing.

"Ivanka, do you have any contact with the Adams family?" Lin Feng asked.

"Lin, what do you want?" Ivanka couldn't help it this time. Of course, this is not curious, after all, when Lin Feng asked this, she naturally had to know what Lin Feng's intention was before she could answer.

"The Adams family lost a lot of money and Malone, and the Muse owed him even more. Therefore, he wanted to help Malone regain the position of Adams' heir." Lin Feng said.

hiss! Although Ivanka was mentally prepared for Lin Feng to help Malone regain the position of heir, she was still shocked when she heard this from Lin Feng's mouth.

"Boss, there are three heirs in the Adams family today, but everyone knows that the most promising one to inherit the position of the next Patriarch is now the muse Adams. He is a direct relative. Twenty years ago, his father was his father. They were established as heirs, but their head, Adams V, was very healthy, and his control of the family has always convinced all family members and led the Adams family to flourish. Therefore, these years have passed, and it is said that Adams V several times Please resign, resign from the position of head of the family, and want to pass on to his son, the father of the Muse, who are retained by the family. However, because the Muse is already older, the family heir is re-established and is in their generation. The Muse is the first heir. Once Adams V resigns again, or is gone, the Muse is the new head of the Patriarch!" Ivanka said.

Lin Feng frowned.

"That said, it is a bit difficult for Ma Long to regain the position of heir!" Lin Feng thought.

"It's not a little difficult, it's very difficult! This is simply impossible! After all, the Muse has been managing the family for several years, and he has done a good job. Although there are some flaws in his personality, these flaws do not prevent him from inheriting. Patriarch. And Ma Long is a cross-street mouse that everyone shouts and beats. Lin, how do you compare this! It's too difficult to let him go back!" Ivanka shook his head and said.

"Difficulty is very difficult. But I think. There will always be a turn for the better in any of these things, right? It's human work!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

Ivanka thought for a moment.

"If the only turning point is Adams V's attitude towards Malone. If he is still optimistic about his grandson, then there is a silver lining. But this silver lining is also very slim. Rumor has it that Adams V's body has not been good recently. Now, maybe it will be passed to the Muse sometime. And this kind of wanting to seize the throne. From a family abandoning a son to becoming a family heir. Without a few years of operation, is it possible?" Ivanka shrugged, " It’s a pity that we don’t have so much time to work slowly. To slowly wash out Malone. I know what you mean is to let Malone do something for Adams. Let the Adams family gradually change its attitude towards Malone. This method, Maybe it's feasible. After all, as long as Adams V still has a good impression of Malone, the plan is difficult, but it will always succeed if you take it slowly. But the crux of the problem is that we have no time 1"

Lin Feng frowned at the table. If Adams V is no longer healthy, it is really bad news. But since Ma Long is his own little brother, he must avenge him. It seems that this plan. Still think about it.

"By the way, do you know Herbert Vogel?" Lin Feng asked.

Herbert Vogel? Ivanka said a few words, the name is a bit familiar. He was... suddenly, Ivanka remembered.

Herbert Vogel, a legendary collector in New York! A well-known collector of minimalist and conceptual artists in the United States. Of course, the most amazing thing about him is that he is just an ordinary person. Born in the United States in the early 1920s, an ordinary "poor". He is not a descendant of a certain nobleman. Nor is he a real estate retail tycoon, nor is he the richest man in a world-renowned oil company. It's a child from Russian Judaism in the African American area. This is not a wealthy family. Herbert's father is a tailor and his mother is a housewife.

After graduating from high school, Herbert became a clerk in the U.S. Postal Service until he retired in 1979. He and his wife as a Brooklyn Public Librarian used their meager salary to collect contemporary art. , The wife’s wages are used to maintain their daily lives, while Herbert’s wages are used to collect their favorite artworks. Their collection mainly focuses on conceptual art and minimalist art, including the works of many famous post-minimalist artists. Herbert collected 4,782 works of art in his lifetime, which is a very important collection in the history of American contemporary art. The couple owns a small apartment in New York. All the collections are kept in the apartment. They decided to abandon their European travel very early in order to use the money they saved to collect works of art.

Herbert Vogel's collection began as early as the mid-nineteenth century and lasted a lifetime. Herbert and his wife Dorothy Vogel met in 1960. Prior to this, Herbert had a keen interest in art. Before the two got married, Herbert had already started art collection. When the two got engaged, they bought a Picasso ceramic work as an engagement gift. In January 1962, Herbert held a simple wedding with Dorothy, who was 13 years younger. The wedding was held in Dorothy's hometown of Elmira, New York. Dorothy's father was a stationery merchant, and his mother was a housewife. Dorothy received bachelor and postgraduate degrees from Syracuseuy and Denveruy. Like her husband, this bride also came from a family without artistic soil. Compared with contemporary visual art, she prefers classical music and drama. On the contrary, Herbert is deeply attracted by painting. Dorothy once recalled: "Art is Herbert's only interest other than animals." After the two got married, Herbert's hobbies soon became Dorothy's hobbies, so the two together Entered New York University to study painting, and rented a studio in Union Square (square), but finally gave up painting because of his love for collecting. The honeymoon of the two began at the National Gallery in Washington, where they first saw the works of classical art masters, which also opened the couple's collection.

In fact, before Herbert and Dorothy got married, he would often hang out in the cedartavern and the art club in Greenwich Village to communicate and revel with many abstract expressionist artists. Infected by these artists, Herbert thought of becoming one of them. He also traveled alone to the Provincetown artist community in Massachusetts, USA, to watch the creations of the artists there. For the artist David Smith, he once had a relationship with the artist David Smith. The interaction between (davidsmith) and Franz Crane makes Herbert excited every time he recalls. In the late 1850s, Herbert used to paint frantically, and was used off work and weekends until he met his wife Dorothy in 1960.

After the two got married in 1962, under the influence of her husband, Dorothy also started artistic creation. Together they went to New York University to study painting and art history, and devoted all their energy to artistic creation. At that time, they rented a studio in Union Square and spent all their time off work and weekends there. Gradually, both of them began to form an abstract art style in their artistic creation.

In addition to painting, the two will also spend part of their weekends visiting major galleries in New York to watch exhibitions. For three years, their weekends have been wandering between art work and galleries. But when they found that the joy of admiring artworks for a long time brought them more than the joy of their own creation, in 1965, the couple gave up their studio in Union Square and began to turn to art collection.

"Lin, why are you looking for him?" Ivanka asked.

Lin Feng smiled.

"Because we have one of the bronze statues of the Chinese Zodiac in his hands. I want to buy it and transfer it to the country. During the Olympics, it will be exhibited in Yuanmingyuan!" Lin Feng said with a smile, "Come here this time. , I also want to solve the problem of the bronze head of the Chinese zodiac. Do you know it, can you arrange it?" Lin Feng asked.

"That's okay. Although there is no contact between us, my father once attended one of his collection exhibitions, which is a bit of friendship. I will help you arrange it. Maybe I can meet tomorrow. But if he sells it or not, I will I don't know!" Ivanka said.

"It's okay, it would be nice to arrange a meeting!" Lin Feng said with a smile.
