Treasure Hunt all over the World

At the end of the Christmas holiday, Matthew and the others returned to Boston on an Airbus H155 and everything was back on track.

On the first day after the holiday, Ye Tian went to the underground vault of the headquarters of MG Chase Bank, brought up two top famous paintings by William De Kooning and Andrew Wise, and took them to Sotheby's auction house.

Those who came to Sotheby's with him, besides Mattis, who was in charge of security, were David and Anderson.

And they were received by Robinson, the director of Sotheby's American Contemporary Art Department, and several famous art appraisal experts.

After entering the meeting room to chat for a few words, everyone quickly got into the topic.

"Robinson, you can start to appraise it. This William de Kooning's "Names Written on Water" was created in 1975 when he was 70 years old.

At that time, Wilhelm de Kooning changed his artistic style again and began to create a series of abstract landscape paintings with a wide drawing knife. This is one of them, with extraordinary artistic value.

Andrew Wise's "The Man in the Rye" is a masterpiece of neo-realism, created in the 1960s, it is his peak work, and it is very valuable! "

Ye Tian raised his hand and gestured at the two top famous paintings placed in the conference room, briefly introducing the situation of the two famous paintings.

"Okay, Steven, let's start the appraisal. These two paintings are so beautiful, worthy of being masterpieces. You are such a super lucky guy! You are so envious!"

Robinson nodded in excitement, his eyes fixed on two famous paintings, very bright, direct light!

After that, several art appraisal experts who had been impatient for a long time gathered around and started appraisal with magnifying glass and other tools.

Everyone is very excited, full of fanaticism!

Their performance is well understood. William de Kooning and Andrew Wise are extremely important in the history of American art. They are undoubtedly great artists. Can they not be excited?

The identification begins immediately.

Ye Tian knew the authenticity of these two top-level paintings better than anyone, and had no worries at all.

While Robinson and the others were nervous about the appraisal, he was relaxed while tasting coffee while chatting with Matisse and the others, he looked confident!

David and Anderson, sitting next to him, began to review the commissioned auction contract, very seriously!

Although we have cooperated with Sotheby's auction house many times and have not had any problems, we still cannot be sloppy when we should be cautious!

After ten minutes, the identification result came out.

Everything was as Ye Tian expected, without the slightest deviation.

"Gentlemen, after our careful evaluation, these two top paintings are undoubtedly authentic. They were made by two masters, William De Kooning and Andrew Wise, respectively!

These two famous paintings are indeed the peak works of two art masters. They are well-preserved and have extraordinary artistic value. The market value is quite high. They are well-deserved top artworks..."

A well-known art appraisal expert read out the appraisal conclusion aloud, and his excited voice trembled a little.

As soon as the voice fell, Robinson cheered excitedly.

"Awesome! With these two top famous paintings, this new year's American contemporary art auction will definitely make a sensation in the entire antique art collection field! It attracts countless attention!"

Hearing these words, everyone in the conference room nodded in sympathy and agreed with him very much.

The next thing is simple. For both parties, signing the entrusted auction contract is a matter of familiarity, and it will be completed soon.

In this commissioned auction contract, in addition to the format clauses, it is also clear that the auction reserve prices of these two top-class paintings are the current market prices!

This was specifically requested by Ye Tian. Although this time it was to support Sotheby's with righteousness and to support their New Year's special shooting scenes, there is no less profit!

As for the transfer date of the auction funds, the contract did not specifically indicate it. This is a matter of your own unsaid, and it is not suitable to be written in the contract!

After signing the contract, Ye Tian and the others stood up, ready to leave Sotheby's.

"Robinson, happy cooperation, I wish you a smooth New Year's shoot!"

"Thank you, Steven, you really helped us a lot, happy cooperation!"

Robinson and Ye Tian shook hands, expressing gratitude sincerely.

Later, Ye Tian and the others left Sotheby's and returned to their company, while David and Anderson returned to the law firm.

Just as they signed the commission auction contract with Sotheby's, a grand press conference was also held in Boston, two or three hundred kilometers away!

The place where the press conference was held was the lobby on the first floor of the FBI Boston Branch Building.

Christmas is over. The guys related to Thompson's art crime group have spent this wonderful holiday with their family!

After the humanitarian care, it’s time to close the net!

These guys should spend the rest of Christmas in prison.

The person who presided over the press conference was of course Joey, the head of the FBI's art crime team.

When Joey stood on the stage and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, good morning..." to dozens of reporters, a tsunami that swept across the entire field of antique art collection finally ushered in The climax!

Ye Tian and the Brave Fearless Exploration Company in New York were naturally inevitably affected by the tsunami, and they were on the cusp of the storm, making them very eye-catching!

At noon, when Ye Tian and Betty returned to the company after having lunch in Chinatown, they immediately felt the tremendous power of the tsunami!

As soon as they got out of the car, they saw the situation in front of the Rockefeller Center at a glance.

At least hundreds of media reporters and news interview vehicles gathered there. The number of people was very large. The Wuyang Wuyang people were about to squeeze into the skating rink!

Each of these guys was extremely excited and high-spirited. They stood at the door of the building against the biting cold wind, just waiting for the target person to appear. It can be described as very dedicated!

When Ye Tian and Betty got out of the car, they were almost spotted by these guys!

Immediately afterwards, these guys heard the starting gun of the 100-meter final of the Olympic Games, and they immediately rushed over, one by one at a fast speed!

Suddenly, Ye Tian, ​​Betty, and Matisse were surrounded by these media reporters, and the water was in vain!

In the next moment, countless questions immediately began to bomb Ye Tian's ears.

"Steven, I'm a CBS TV reporter. Tell me about the international art robbers in Boston. How did you find those guys? Everyone is very concerned about this!"

"Good noon, Steven, I'm a reporter from The New York Times. Everyone knows that you are a professional treasure hunter. Can you tell us about the harvest of your treasure hunt?"

"Steven, I'm a reporter from The Washington Post. How did you locate the suspect? That's a respected Anglican priest! Who would have thought he was a top art thief!"

As the reporters asked questions quickly, they stretched out their microphones to Ye Tian. Everyone was extremely excited, with crazy colors flashing in their eyes!

To them, the news that broke today is too shocking and interesting!

Without even thinking about it, in the next few days, this shocking case will surely occupy the headlines of all American news media.

As one of the core figures of this case, Steven is naturally the focus of everyone's attention.

If you can dig out the unknown blockbuster news from him, will the headlines still be a problem? Absolutely hold the handle, did not run!

Because of this, these media reporters have been so crazy and desperate!

Even the intellectual and beautiful female reporters, who were not familiar with men at this time, broke out with amazing fighting power, and moved forward one by one!

Fortunately, Matisse was in front of him, and Ye Tian was notoriously famous. These media reporters didn't put the microphone on Ye Tian's face or rushed directly into his arms!

Faced with so many surging questions, Ye Tian didn't know which one to answer for a while, so he could only helplessly look at the reporters in front of him.

After a short while, he stretched out his hands and pressed down, and said loudly:

"Good noon, friends from the press, everyone has worked hard! Thank you for your attention, yes, the international art crime group in Boston was indeed the first we discovered.

But I am very sorry, many of these details are still confidential for the time being, I can't tell you, if you want to know more details, just pay attention to the information disclosed by the FBI!

As the department in charge of art crime, their news is the most authoritative and credible! In addition, you can also pay attention to the special report on NBC TV tonight.

In this treasure hunt, NBC TV sent a special report team to follow up the whole process~www.ltnovel.com~ From their special report, I believe you can find the answer you want!

Well, now I can only say so much. Whether other information can be disclosed, we still need to communicate with the FBI. You can leave, and I wish you all a Merry Christmas! "

After speaking, he took Betty's hand and followed Mattis who cleared the way, squeezed out of the reporter's circle, and walked quickly into the Rockefeller Center!

Seeing their disappearance, the many reporters gathered at the door of the building couldn't help but sigh together, and each voice was full of regret.

"Hey--!"

After the sigh, there was a lively discussion on the scene.

"I'm sure that this guy Steven has made another big fortune and got a lot of top antique art! Definitely made a profit!"

"I have to ask? Didn't you hear the rumors on the streets of Manhattan these past two days? This guy gave the company employees a full tens of millions of dollars in bonuses at the company's Christmas dinner, which is extremely generous!"

"Before I thought the rumors were false! But now it seems that this is probably true! A reward of tens of millions of dollars, that is just a company of dozens of people! This is crazy!"

While the reporters were discussing, Ye Tianzheng and Betty in the elevator chatted in low voices.

"In the next few days, no matter where we go, it is estimated that we will be chased by a large number of media reporters. It seems that New York can't stay, let's go to Lexington!

It should be relatively quiet there, and I haven’t seen Jueying for a long time, so I kind of miss that little guy, so I just took this opportunity to look at it, let’s relax a little too"

"Awesome! I also want to Jue Ying, I have long wanted to see that little guy!"

Betty responded excitedly, smiling very brightly!

"Ding!"

The melodious bell rang, and the elevator reached the floor of the company.
