Treasure Hunt all over the World
Chapter 568: Take advantage of the opportunity to rob
The discussion subsided slightly, and Ye Tian's voice immediately spread to everyone's ears again.
"Here, I must declare in advance that I do not intend to sell the antique artworks from China, but prepare to collect them or bring them back to China.
Everyone knows that I am from China and I prefer antique artworks from my own country. Those things can give me a feeling of blood connection. I believe you can understand my approach.
The best market for antique artworks is not in the United States or other countries, but in China, where people know how to appreciate them and understand their beauty better! There is no doubt about this! "
Someone was already anxious before the words came to an end.
Isaac, the director of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, pushed aside the chair and stood up abruptly, and said anxiously:
"Steven, how can you be unbelievable? Many of the antique art stolen in our museum are from China, and we are still going to buy it back!"
"Yeah! The situation in our museum is the same. There are also two Chinese paintings, both of which were named by you guys to leave. We also want to buy back these two paintings!"
The curator of the New Haven Museum of Art echoed, his face a bit unsightly.
"We all understand that you Chinese do prefer antique art in your country, but is it a bit inappropriate for you to do this?"
The curator of the Barnes Museum said coldly that a stolen calligraphy work in their museum was taken by Ye Tian.
The rest are the same, as long as there are Chinese stolen antique artworks in their museums, their faces are a bit ugly at this time.
Faced with this situation, Ye Tian still behaved very relaxedly, and he couldn't see any nervousness.
After several museum owners finished speaking, he smiled and said:
"Gentlemen, stay calm and listen to me. Since I made this request, it must have been well thought out and will definitely compensate you.
There are a large number of stolen antique artworks hidden in that warehouse. Some of them are not in the stolen antique art catalog. Most of them come from countries and regions that have not established similar registration systems.
Others come from the old war years, or countries and regions that are still fighting at present. Their original owners are probably no longer alive or have fallen apart!
Strictly speaking, these antique artworks are already unowned. As a professional treasure hunter who discovers them, I have the right to obtain these treasures. There is no doubt about this!
Like other stolen antique artworks, these antique artworks with unclear ownership and undocumented are all top-notch items, including works by art masters such as Raphael and Picasso.
After getting these unowned stolen antique artworks, I will take out some of them to replace those antique artworks from China. I believe this arrangement should satisfy everyone.
For example, if I replace the three ancient Chinese ink landscape paintings with a representative work of Picasso's peak period, would you be willing to accept this substitution? Mr. Isaac! "
"Of course I do! I can't ask for it. Can you tell me that it is Picasso's masterpiece? He has so many stolen paintings. I really didn't think that masterpiece might appear in that warehouse!"
Isaac couldn't wait to nod his head and said, excited about flying!
In the eyes of these dead foreigners, the ancient Chinese ink and wash landscape paintings with clouds, mountains and mists cannot be appreciated at all. They are nowhere comparable to the masterpieces of Cubist master Picasso.
Specifically reflected in the market value, the gap between the two is also very huge. The total of three famous ancient Chinese paintings may not be worth the price of a Picasso painting.
Of course, artistic value is a different matter, it is too subjective!
That's why Isaac was ecstatic when he heard what Ye Tian said, and he agreed with great joy.
He didn't have any doubts about whether Ye Tian could get the top antique art without owner.
Professional treasure hunters enjoy the benefits of the treasures they find. It is not only a customary practice, but also a right granted by the law. No one can deny it!
"Excuse me, Isaac, this is just a metaphor. It is not convenient to reveal the name of the painting for the time being. Don't worry, you will see the oil painting in a short time!
But I can tell you one thing, that oil painting was created in 1909, only two years after "Girls of Yavignon"! It is definitely Picasso's peak work! "
Ye Tian smiled and shook his head, without answering Isaac's question.
However, the content of his words was extremely shocking.
"Awesome! Steven, I love you to death! Actually sent us a painting of Picasso at his peak!"
Isaac cheered directly, almost crazy with excitement.
Isaac was not the only one who was very excited, but the few museum owners who had just looked ugly were all smiling and dancing! The face change becomes extremely smooth!
"Steven, is this true? Replace the antique art from China with the works of Western art masters, did I hear it wrong?"
The curator of the New Haven Art Museum asked excitedly, eyes full of incredible.
Happiness came so suddenly, he couldn't believe it!
"Of course it is true, the young man is not deceived, but the premise is that the value must be equal, at least let me think that the value is equal! This is in line with the principle of fair trade!"
Ye Tian gave an affirmative answer, very confident.
"Awesome! We also want to get a piece of a top art master's work, even if the value is not equal, it doesn't matter. We have a lot of antique art from China, we can come up with a few more to match!"
Obviously ~www.ltnovel.com~ This man has already spared his life and is going to draw a treasure of the town hall for his museum!
"Your proposal is very good, I will seriously consider it!"
Ye Tian promised very refreshingly, how could this kind of godsend opportunity of taking advantage of the fire be missed.
"Steven, you just said that there are Raphael's paintings in that warehouse. Can you tell me the details? Is it Raphael's painting?"
The curator of the Metropolitan Museum asked eagerly, his excited voice trembling.
Raphael, the top three in the Renaissance art world! Every work is a priceless treasure, and there is no circulation in the art market now!
Anyone or museum who owns Raphael's paintings must be collected as heirlooms or treasures of the town hall, and I am afraid that they are no less cherished than their own eyes! It is impossible to sell it.
Now I heard that there is a Raphael painting in that warehouse. Even the curator of the Metropolitan Museum, one of the world's four largest museums, can't help but feel a little bit excited!
