They were all so into the drama!

Chapter 495 Let’s not be fooled anymore!

After the fermentation of public opinion, many photos and videos about the Christie's auction began to be spread back to China.

It is worth mentioning that even Huo Mingjie’s photos at the auction were taken!

In the photo, Huo Mingjie is wearing a luxurious black suit. He is sitting on a chair at the auction, with his long and strong fingers gently resting on his knees. His dignified temperament almost overflows the screen.

He tilted his head slightly when he looked at the stage. His perfectly handsome face, which combined both Eastern and Western aesthetics, looked slightly cold at this moment, and his eyes seemed to be filled with contempt and indifference.

Just looking at the photos gives people a feeling of being unruly and indifferent, and that everyone here is rubbish!

"Holy crap, this photo fits my aesthetic so well!"

"He's so cool, I like him so much!"

"I declare that this will be Huo Mingjie's most handsome photo!"

"Hehehe, no matter how good-looking he is, he will be embarrassed and thrown into the Gallic chicken this time."

"Tsk, this Huo Mingjie seems to be a really angry young man. Last year he beat Xiaozheng one against ten, and this year he despised foreigners at the Gallic chicken auction..."

"It wasn't like one against ten last year. He was beaten down by him at least twenty or thirty times!"

"If you say that, then I like him even more!"

"Hitting people, cheating and taking photos... Today's teenagers are led astray by such morally corrupt celebrities!"

"S, B stuff, saying people are morally corrupt, how could you donate more money than Huo Mingjie last year?"

"Honestly, just because of this photo, I feel like I can forgive him!"

The discussion about the photos is actually not very lively.

What pushed this public opinion to a climax was the press conference held by Huo Mingjie on behalf of Mr. Cai at the Gallic Chicken!

In the video, Huo Mingjie stands on the stage, his posture is as tall as a pine tree, and his whole body exudes a calm and unhurried temperament, which is extremely eye-catching.

He used extremely fluent English to formally speak to the foreigners on behalf of Mr. Cai.

The comments under the video are increasing at an extremely fast speed.

"Tsk, even I, a man, have to admit that this guy is really handsome!"

“Huo Mingjie’s English is so fluent!”

"Yes, someone said before that the teaching conditions in his high school were very poor and he didn't even have a serious English teacher..."

"The teaching conditions in Huo Mingjie's hometown are indeed not good. He should have taught himself after coming out!"

"Bravo!"

"No, can someone translate it? What is he talking about?"

"Huo Mingjie said that this time he was speaking on behalf of Mr. Cai of the Save Overseas Lost Cultural Relics Foundation."

"The general meaning is that as a Chinese, in this situation, we should stand up and make a voice to prevent the loss of cultural relics such as the twelve zodiac animal heads. But we cannot pay this amount, because this is our own thing... "

"Well, actually it feels quite reasonable!"

"But no matter what, you shouldn't fake the photo, right?"

"But it was originally something that was stolen from us by robbers, and it should be returned to us directly!"

"This incident actually has a great impact on the credibility of our people! I have read news reports. After hearing about this incident, many foreign auctions have changed their rules. Chinese people must pay a deposit to participate in the auction!"

"Yes, the impact is really bad!"

"But what's wrong with what Huo Mingjie said?"

"It's not without its positive impact. This incident caused a big fuss in the auction circle. Many foreign collectors have lost their memory and dare not accept our national treasures. The rat and rabbit heads were directly thrown at the auction house. In hand..."

This "fraudulent auction" was actually aimed at making these two beasts the first to be photographed.

Foreign collectors obviously do not really appreciate the cultural relic value of these "faucets".

If it weren't for the Chinese people's obsession with the twelve zodiac animal heads, which caused the value of this thing to increase 12,000 times in just over 20 years, they would be too lazy to buy it!

Now the mainland has seen through the foreigners' intentions to deceive people, and has directly expressed its attitude and said no.

At this time, it is obvious that no one will be hyping up the "Twelve Zodiac Animal Heads" anymore, and naturally no one will be willing to spend money to take over.

The most angry person about this incident is obviously the Pinault family behind the Christie's auction house.

I finally spent money to buy something. I originally wanted to make a lot of money by taking advantage of the Chinese people's memory of the shame of modern history, but ended up smashing it in my hands. It was so uncomfortable...

Faced with the fierce public opinion in the country, the officials, who were seemingly indifferent on the surface, began to exert their efforts.

First, a cultural relics expert expressed his opinion online:

"The bronze statues of the twelve zodiac animal heads are just architectural components. If they are not connected with the Old Summer Palace, if they are not connected with the invasion of the British and French allied forces, their value cannot be very high!"

Then the vice president of the National Cultural Relics Association was interviewed, and his words were even more straightforward:

"The price of the animal heads in the Old Summer Palace is completely hyped. As building components, their value is greatly reduced without the building. The current hype is purely the profit-seeking needs of some foreign businessmen and does not reflect the two The true value of this cultural relic!”

"It is very inappropriate to call faucets made by foreigners 'national treasures'! We must have a correct understanding of them, especially their artistry, based on the history of Chinese art..."

As a testimony to the humiliation of modern history, the twelve zodiac animal heads obviously cannot be forgotten.

But don’t take it too seriously and fall into the hype trap set by foreigners for the mainland!

The official's overt and covert statements made most mainstream newspapers calm down, but they did not dare to criticize blatantly.

However, as we all know, these days the public intellectuals and shepherd dogs who confiscate money are running rampant, so they pay special attention to the reaction of foreigners!

After the official platform, these groups did not dare to dwell on the topic of "national treasure", so they could only immediately change direction and start targeting Huo Mingjie, who was involved in this matter.

All kinds of doubts began to come out again.

"Huo Mingjie even went to Gaul Chicken during the Chinese New Year. No matter how you look at it, it's just a hype!"

"Celebrities, they really dare to do anything for the sake of fame..."

"Hey, Huo Mingjie seems to have a GUCCI endorsement, right? GUCCI and the auction house seem to be from the same company, right?"

"Haha, Huo Mingjie is so smart. The GUCCI spokesperson is only willing to sign for one year, and it just expired two days ago..."

"Oh, you look at it this way, you are really scheming! You didn't lose a dime, and you gained so much advantage and fame!"

"Nonsense. Why don't you spend air ticket money to go to the Gallic Chicken?"

"Hahaha!"
