The next day, at 960 Fifth Avenue, in front of an atmospheric luxury apartment.
Li Feng came out of the bulletproof RV after being photographed by many multimedia and accompanied by more than 10 security personnel. With bursts of flash lights 2 or 30 meters away, there was a sound of "clicking and clicking" pressing the camera shutter from time to time.
Looking up, a 12 storey luxury apartment building appeared in front of me. At the same time, I saw an Siyuan and his party coming out to meet each other in person at the gate, which gave Li Feng enough face.
Seeing the visitor, Li Feng walked up with a smile holding Zhou Jiana, a former Chinese social Princess and beauty of the upper class in New York. In addition to an Siyuan, Li Feng saw several Chinese faces behind him, especially a female face he was familiar with and had seen several times.
"John, you're here at last, but you're late." An Siyuan, an American with a Chinese name, joked with a pun.
"Really, there is a Chinese saying 'it's better to come early than to come at a good time'. I think I'm not too late now. Ms. Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect to see you here today." Li Feng also responded to an Siyuan with a smile and greeted Yang Xuelan, a strong Chinese American woman who had been in contact with her for several times.
As they walked, they greeted at random. Soon, they walked into the apartment hall, then disappeared into the eyes of people outside the apartment and entered the private elevator of an Siyuan's apartment.
In addition to an Siyuan and Yang Xuelan, there are also a foreigner and a Chinese, respectively he Muwen, director of the Asia Department of the New York metropolis (another old American with a Chinese name), and Tang LiuQian, Yang Xuelan's brother-in-law, the only Chinese director of the Metropolitan Museum and the Tang family, an American Chinese rich family.
……
"Ms. Yang, I've always wanted to visit you. This time it's ahead of time."
"Oh... John, what can I do for you?"
"Hehe... This is not a place to talk. I really want to talk to you about something. How about next time I visit in person?"
"Well, I'll wait."
"Mr. Tang, I've heard of your reputation on Wall Street for a long time. I've heard your legend since I was a child. The company you founded is one of the top 30 fund companies in the United States. I didn't expect you to be Ms. Yang's brother-in-law."
"Ha ha... I'm flattered. I'm old. Now it's your young people's world. John, your name has spread all over the world in the past two years. No, it just released Forbes magazine a few days ago. Your name shocked the world and made me ashamed of an old antique like me."
“…”
With the introduction among the people, the elevator soon reached the apartment floor of ansiyuan. On the third floor of the apartment, there are 22 rooms belonging to ansiyuan, which is the famous "art apartment exchange" of ansiyuan in New York.
From walking out of the elevator and seeing the corridor, an Siyuan's collection began to be displayed. On both sides of the corridor are various sculptures, calligraphy and painting works of art. The corridor is paved with precious carpets, including traditional aristocratic carpets from India, China and other places.
Walking into an Siyuan's reception living room, what you see is a royal special antique carpet embroidered with Chinese dragon on the floor. Obviously, this carpet must be the Royal carpet of the Chinese feudal dynasty. After all, the decoration embroidered with Chinese dragon in the feudal period can only come from the feudal royal family.
……
Perhaps aware that Li Feng looked at the carpet under his feet, an Siyuan said with a little complacent look: "John, this is the Qing Royal Court carpet I bought from the capital of China 20 years ago."
"It's been more than a hundred years. It's as new as new. It's really good." Li Feng couldn't help laughing and praising.
"This way, please!"
“…”
Looking at all kinds of works of art, Li Feng couldn't help but marvel in his heart.
"Your tea, sir."
Just then, an Siyuan's housekeeper took the servants to offer their own tea and drinks. Today, all present are lovers of Asian culture. An Siyuan sent Chinese Longjing green tea.
"Thank you!"
After receiving the tea from an Siyuan's Japanese housekeeper, Li Feng took a sip and thanked him. In his heart, he thought about the "intelligence" about an Siyuan he had seen before. Yes, Li Feng read a detailed investigation report about an Siyuan before he came.
The Japanese housekeeper is not only a housekeeper, but also an Siyuan's "lover". Yes, an Siyuan is a gay brother, which is why an Siyuan has no children and has never been married in his life.
……
"Bob, now that you've come to your art apartment, won't you show me around?" After drinking tea and chatting casually, Li Feng said with a smile.
"OK, now that you've drunk all the tea, well, I'll just take John around my apartment and see my collection."
"Ha ha... Bob, that's what I'm here for today. I can't wait."
"Ha ha... Let's start with our living room, um... From the chair you're sitting in, John."
"Uh..."
Li Feng looked at the chair he sat down. When he came in, he saw that it was an antique Chinese chair. Li Feng didn't think much about it. Seeing that there was a cushion on it, Li Feng also sat down. Unexpectedly, it was really antique.
"Your chair is a set with the three over there. It's the famous Huaxia Hainan huanghuali chair."
"Oh... This is Huanghua pear!" Li Feng got up in surprise and looked at the chair he was sitting before. He couldn't help stroking it and said to himself.
"John has heard of Huanghua pear, too?"
"Ha ha... I'm half Chinese, and several old people in my family are very interested in these traditional Chinese works of art. I've heard of some of them."
"This is the red sandalwood tea table I bought from Beijing 15 years ago."
Just introduced wanhuang Huali chair. Well, another famous furniture came out. This is a red sandalwood tea table from the palace, and the tea table is filled with all kinds of art sculptures from Asia. Li Feng should have 2 or 30 pieces, including white jade sculptures, bronze sculptures, stone sculptures, etc., mostly small sculptures.
……
Next, with an Siyuan's introduction, walking around the apartment really opened Li Feng's eyes. In particular, an Siyuan's collection of Chinese furniture, Chinese calligraphy, painting and porcelain really stunned Li Feng.
From ancient calligraphy and painting, stele stickers to works of art by famous Chinese artists in modern times; From bronze ware to Tang Tri Color Porcelain to song porcelain, all kinds of Ming and Qing porcelain; From Yuan lacquerware to the antique furniture of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, especially the antique furniture of the Ming Dynasty, opened Li Feng's eyes.
"Bob, I'm very interested in your collection. You have too many collections here, so I won't be polite to you. You can count the number of collections here. If you're willing to sell, you can count them and give me a final offer. How about it?"
"Uh..."
"Sao Rui, Sao Rui..."
“…”
After turning around and hearing Li Feng's words, everyone in the audience was stunned. I really didn't expect Li Feng's appetite to be so big. Obviously, everyone was stunned by Li Feng's big hand.
