Picking up Leaks in live broadcast: There are Treasures Everywhere in my Eyes - Chapter 680
Chapter 682
Perhaps because of the lessons of the Poles, no one wants to be looted by the US government.
Early the next morning, Pierre came to report the good news.
The Louvre and the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris, as well as the Musée d’Orsay, accepted Xiao Ran’s terms of trade and were ready to start a deal with him.
Even Sophie of the Jimei Museum reluctantly accepted Xiao Ran’s trading conditions, but made some adjustments to the list of transactions he proposed.
After receiving this news, Xiao Ran immediately took Elaine and David to the conference room to meet with Fargot and them again to finalize the contract details.
Martínez and Sophie, who were far away in Paris, participated in the meeting via video link.
Also attending the talks were sister-in-law and Shan Lao who were far away in Beijing.
During the meeting, Xiao Ran and the French quickly determined all the terms and details of the transaction contract and finalized a list of all the antique works of art to be traded.
These include stolen antique art taken out by Xiao Ran and China’s top antique art from several museums, such as the Louvre and the Guimet Museum.
After confirming that there was no problem with the contract, Xiao Ran immediately signed the contract with Fargot and Pierre, and agreed on the delivery method and delivery time.
Next, Martinez and Sophie will pack all the Chinese antiques for trade in Paris and ship them to Beijing on a chartered flight.
When those Chinese antique works of art are transported to Beijing, they will be received by Xiaogu and Shan Lao, and they will be evaluated at the airport.
After making sure that there was no problem with those treasures, Xiao Ran would hand over the corresponding stolen antique art to Fargot and Pierre to complete this series of heavyweight art transactions.
After signing the contract, both Xiao Ran, Pierre and Fargot breathed a sigh of relief.
After a series of transactions yesterday and today, many stolen antique works of art have been traded.
The remaining stolen antique artworks, Xiao Ran will collect some of them himself, and some of them can be dealt with slowly, no need to worry!
In this way, even if the new US government turns its face after coming to power and tries to forcibly intercept those stolen antique works of art, the loss will not be too great!
In addition to the stolen antique artworks that have been in Xiao Ran’s hands, in the next time, the FBI Art Crime Unit will also track down many stolen antique artworks that have long been sold.
All recovered stolen antique artworks will be handed over to Xiao Ran for disposal.
That would bring him constant surprises and great wealth, and it would also enrich his private collection.
After leaving the conference room, Xiao Ran went straight back to the suite.
After returning to their rooms and cleaning up, they were ready to leave the hotel and go to the Philadelphia Museum of Art not far away.
At the Philadelphia Museum of Art, there is still a string of transactions to be made today.
At this moment, Sam’s voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie.
“Sean, a representative of the Conso Museum and the Triton Foundation in the Netherlands, just arrived at the hotel
” “They want to meet you and talk about the stolen antique art, will you meet them now?”
“In addition to the Dutch, there are representatives from several museums in Spain and Italy, as well as representatives from the Houston Museum and the Nelson Museum, etc.”
“Their requirements are the same, they all want to meet you to talk about the stolen antique art
” Hearing the report, Xiao Ran immediately copied the walkie-talkie and said:
“Received, Sam, you tell those guys to let them go to the Philadelphia Museum of Art”
I’ll be meeting them at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and I’m more than happy to make some deals with them,”
Sam immediately responded
, “Okay, Sean”
After ending the call, Xiao Ran took Elaine and them out of the suite and prepared to leave the hotel.
However, instead of going downstairs, they went to the tarmac on the roof.
In front of the hotel today, there are still a large number of protesters and demonstrators, as well as many media reporters, and the situation is quite complicated.
For safety reasons, Xiao Ran and they were going to take a helicopter to the art museum.
Company employees and most security personnel in charge of miscellaneous work will take a bulletproof convoy to the museum.
While speaking, Xiao Ran and they had arrived at the roof of the hotel.
At this time, on the two tarmacs on the roof of the hotel, each with a medium-sized helicopter parked, ready to take off at any time.
In the sky above the hotel, a medium-sized helicopter is also circling, responsible for air vigilance.
The three medium-sized helicopters were all security personnel under Xiao Ran, and the armed security team members sitting in the cabin were also his subordinates.
Even so, when walking towards the helicopter on the tarmac, Xiao Ran secretly turned on the perspective and quickly looked through all three medium-sized helicopters.
Naturally, these three medium helicopters have no problems, they are all in the best condition and safe.
After determining this, Xiao Ran took Elaine and Fang Yufei and boarded one of the medium-sized helicopters.
Several others boarded another medium helicopter.
Soon, the two medium helicopters roared up and quickly soared into the sky.
Seeing this scene, there was immediately a commotion inside and outside the hotel.
Especially those guys who gathered in front of the hotel, ready to wait for Xiao Ran to come out, and then protest in person, were so angry that they stomped their feet!
“Fak! Sean, that damn bastard, actually left the hotel from the air in a helicopter, so fucking hateful!
“Damn it, I bought a bag of eggs to treat that bastard, and I bought it all for nothing!”
Mixed in the crowd, a few guys with bad intentions, looking at the three medium-sized helicopters that were rapidly leaving, all of them were full of fire, but they were very helpless.
Museum representatives from European and American countries, as well as other parts of the United States, also looked up at the several helicopters whizzing away, and they were shocked!
“Sean, this bastard, this battle is too exaggerated, like the president’s travel!”
“This is also normal, how many museums and collectors have been ransacked by this bastard Sean, dare you be careless?”
After gritting their teeth and spitting a few words, these guys left the hotel one after another and rushed to the Philadelphia Museum of Art not far away.
Meanwhile.
Sam’s bulletproof motorcade had driven out of the underground garage toward the art museum.
In the blink of an eye, nearly an hour has passed.
A medium-sized conference room at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Representatives from many museums from Europe and the United States, as well as some private collectors and art dealers, have gathered here.
At this time, these guys are all angry and are denouncing Xiao Ran and the FBI Art Crime Group.
But this is also normal, anyone who is madly ransacked, must vent the depression in their hearts, and even anger.
As he was talking, the door of the conference room was suddenly opened.
The next moment, Xiao Ran and Frank walked into this conference room together.
Seeing them come in, everyone in the conference room immediately stood up and looked at them.
Without exception, these guys have a little redness in their eyes.
Xiao Ran glanced at everyone at the scene, and then said with a smile:
“Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, I’m Sean, welcome to Philadelphia, it’s a pleasure to meet you!”
“The purpose of everyone coming to Philadelphia, I already understand
” “I am willing to sit down with you to talk about the transaction, I hope it is a friendly meeting
” Before the words fell, a Dutchman in his fifties suddenly stood up, gritted his back teeth and said:
“Good morning, Mr. Sean, I am Fergus, from the Triton Foundation in the Netherlands
” “Our foundation lent it to the Conso Museum Rotterdam for exhibition, Of the seven top works of art that were later stolen, six of which I heard that you found and are currently in your hands
” “Excuse me, how can we get back those six paintings that originally belonged to our foundation?”
“The one that disappeared, Freud’s The Woman with Her Eyes Closed, did you find any clues?”
Xiao Ran looked at the Dutchman, then smiled and nodded and said: ”
It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Fergus, I have long heard of the Dutch Triton Foundation!”
“That’s right, the seven top works of art stolen by your foundation at the Conso Museum, six of them are currently in my hands
” “As far as the current situation is concerned, you can get back three of the paintings at any time, but you must pay the hanging bounty” Hearing this, Fergus’s eyes immediately stood up and said indignantly:
“We can pay the bounty at any time
, but those paintings belong to our foundation, why can we only get back three paintings?” It doesn’t make sense! Not
only him, but the representative of the Conso Museum also felt the roots of his teeth itching, and he was ready to retort.
Xiao Ran stretched out his hands and gently pressed down, and said with a smile:
“Gentlemen, don’t be impatient, listen to me!”
“Based on the market value of the six paintings that have been found, I have divided them into two parts
” “One part includes Picasso’s “Portrait of the Joker”, Monet’s “Waterloo Bridge”, and De Haan’s “Self-Portrait
“” “and the other part includes Monet’s “Charing Cross Bridge”, Matisse’s “Woman in Yellow and White Clothes Reading Book”, and Gauguin’s “Woman by the Window”.
As long as you pay the bounty amount
, you can take them away” “The remaining other set of paintings will belong to me, if you want to take them back, you can only choose to trade with me
” “Specific trading conditions and chips, we can discuss, I believe we should be able to agree
” “As for the stolen painting that disappeared, Freud’s “Woman with Eyes Closed”, is currently being traced, and has not yet found its whereabouts!”
Before the words fell, several Dutchmen on the opposite side immediately exploded.
“Impossible, this is absolutely impossible, you are a naked robbery!”
“We can’t be stolen once by those Romanian art thieves and then looted by you again!”
Xiao Ran smiled and looked at several angry Dutchmen, and did not respond immediately.
Behind him, the conference room door had been slowly closed by Nick.
In the following time, this conference room was like a pot, and there were all kinds of clenching teeth noise!
Monet’s Charing Cross Bridge
