Picking up Leaks in live broadcast: There are Treasures Everywhere in my Eyes - Chapter 826
Chapter 828
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Ran gave an answer.
“Jean, I won’t collect this oil painting by Lautrec myself
” “But whether to sell it to French collectors and stay in Paris, I still have to think about it
” “Even if I agree to keep this painting in Paris, I am more inclined to cooperate with some top museums in France to exchange Chinese antique art lost to France”
Jean was stunned for a moment, and then a smile finally appeared on his face.
“That’s great, Sean, as long as you can keep this painting in Paris, I think there should be no problem with the transaction
” “Lautrec is a symbol of nineteenth-century Paris, and this painting is so important that it witnesses a very famous love-hate entanglement in art history
” “Don’t think about it, every top museum in Paris will try their best to get this painting, even at any cost!”
“If you agree, I’ll let the news out,”
Xiao Ran looked at this guy and nodded helplessly.
“Well, let, you can release the news that I found this painting, you can also take a few pictures
” “But to explain my trading conditions, museums that do not have trading conditions, it is better not to waste time!”
Without saying a word, Jean immediately nodded and answered:
“No problem, Sean, I will explain your request”
With that, the guy took out his phone and began to take pictures of the painting.
After taking a few detailed photos, he went to the side to send a message and call.
Looking at this guy’s busy and excited appearance, Xiao Ran couldn’t help but laugh, and then said jokingly:
“Honey, in addition to being a gallery owner, is this guy also an art dealer or art broker?”
Hearing this, Elaine also laughed.
“Let this guy not be an art dealer, but has been a curator of art exhibitions for a long time, and has a wide network of contacts!”
“He has a lot of connections with top collectors and museums, as well as antique dealers, that’s why he’s so active” “It’s
also a way for him to make money, and he probably wants to facilitate this deal, so that he can make a lot of money from it!”
“So that’s it, what a shrewd guy!”
Xiao Ran said abruptly.
Immediately afterwards, Elaine asked in a surprised whisper:
“Honey, such an important top art piece, why don’t you collect it yourself?”
“You just said that this is the most important painting of the art master Lautrec,”
Xiao Ran looked at her, and then explained with a smile.
“The reason is very simple, the cultures of the East and the West are different, this painting cannot be publicly exhibited in China
” “The content of the painting is too rotten and slutty, and Lautrec’s almost perverted emotional expression is difficult for Chinese to accept
” “If I collect this painting, I can only enjoy it alone at home, but the content of this painting is really a bit diaphragmatic!”
Elaine paused and looked at the painting again.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said:
“Indeed, the content of this painting is indeed not suitable for public display, at least not for underage children to enjoy!”
“If you store it in your own home, it’s not very suitable, it feels strange”
At this moment, Fang Yufei next to him suddenly interjected.
“Yes, this painting is not allowed to be displayed in China at all
” “First of all, Chinese parents would never want their children to see such a painting!”
After a few small talks, Xiao Ran suddenly said to Elaine:
“Honey, should you inform Caroline and tell her about this oil painting”
, “She teaches Western art history, and the discovery of this painting may bring her a surprise and add a new research topic!”
Elaine was stunned for a moment, then nodded excitedly.
“It’s true, Caroline would be very happy to know about this painting
” “I’ll call her and surprise her a big surprise,”
she said, pulling out her phone and stepping aside to call.
Xiao Ran smiled, then handed the oil painting to David, and then walked to another painting next to it and continued to admire it.
The two Frenchmen who stayed not far from him stared at him deadly, not daring to relax for a moment.
These two guys have made up their minds that if they have another opportunity like the one just now, they can’t miss it again!
But where do they know.
What awaits them in front is not the opportunity to get rich overnight, but a bottomless trap!
In the blink of an eye, another ten minutes or so passed.
Xiao Ran was standing in front of a surrealist painting admiring, when there was a sudden noise at the door.
The next moment, Pierre and Caroline walked in quickly, both very excited.
As soon as she entered the door, Caroline couldn’t wait to ask:
“Elaine, where is the painting you said on the phone?” I must take a good look at
it” “If what you said on the phone is true, the discovery of this painting will definitely cause a huge sensation
” Elaine pointed to the painting in David’s hand and said proudly: “This is the painting I said on the phone, perhaps the most important work of the art master Lautrec’s life”
Before the words fell, Caroline had already looked at the oil painting in David’s hand
.
Pierre said hello to Jean, then came to Xiao Ran’s side, and said excitedly:
“Sean, your luck is really against the sky, just the first day of quarantine, you actually found such a top artwork, it’s too enviable!”
Xiao Ran looked at the old man’s pole and said with a smile:
“No way, my luck has always been good
, it seems that this time I will come to France to be the same” “Next, I may still find surprises, this is just the beginning
” “You go over to admire that painting, it will definitely be eye-opening, I will look at the other paintings displayed here”
He said this to the two Frenchmen next to him, Be prepared to lead them into a trap step by step.
Where did Pierre know this, he quickly nodded.
“Okay, Sean, I’ll go over and admire the painting, let’s talk later”
With that, he walked towards Elaine and Caroline.
By this time, Caroline had begun to admire and study the painting.
The people in charge of the briefing were Elaine and Jean.
With Pierre joining, the side suddenly became more lively.
While appreciating the research, they were also constantly discussing.
Under Elaine’s guidance, Caroline and Pierre soon saw Lautrec’s signature and Lautrec’s bitter love and hatred for Valadon.
Unsurprisingly, this astonishing discovery directly made Caroline and Pierre exclaim exclaimed.
Caroline, in particular, even danced with her hands.
For her research on Western art history, this discovery is particularly significant.
This is equivalent to pie falling from the sky, meaning a series of weighty papers, meaning fame and status, and so on.
Looking at them who were excited, Xiao Ran smiled softly, and then continued to admire the surrealist paintings in front of him.
A moment later, he came to an abstract expressionist painting and stopped to admire it.
The first time he saw this painting, he was calm and there was nothing special.
After a few moments, he suddenly became much more focused and stepped forward to take a closer look at the painting.
Then take four or five steps back, open a little distance, and take in the whole picture of the painting.
Then he suddenly froze, seemed to fall into deep thought, and began to think about something.
His series of performances were all seen by the two Frenchmen not far away.
These two Frenchmen see it clearly, or they think they see it clearly.
They believe that Xiao Ran must have found something in this painting, and may have seen which master art is the work.
Not even ruling out the possibility, he wanted to immediately acquire this abstract expressionist painting.
Thinking of this, the two Frenchmen immediately looked at this abstract expressionist painting and began to move.
At this moment, Xiao Ran added another fire to them.
He glanced at the painting a few more times, then turned to look at Jean, who was enjoying “Memories of Love and Hate” intoxicatedly, and asked curiously: “Jean
, whose work is this abstract expressionist painting, and why is it not signed by the author?”
“The composition and style of this painting seem to be a bit like the work of Willem de Kooning, the standard-bearer of Abstract Expressionism
” “To be precise, it is somewhat similar to Willem de Kooning’s series of paintings of women, which was the heyday of Willem de Kooning”
Hearing his words, the two Frenchmen suddenly exclaimed with excitement.
“What? This so-called abstract expressionist painting may be the work of William de Kooning, which is great! Secretly
excited at the same time, the two guys quickly made a decision.
Take this painting! Never miss this opportunity again!
Although they were laymen, they had heard of what value the works of the abstract expressionist master William de Kooning were.
It is no exaggeration to exaggerate that the market value of the works of William de Kooning in his heyday is not less than 100 million US dollars!
Who can not be crazy in the face of such a great temptation?
Willem de Kooning, “The Woman”
