Du Haifeng's oil painting is a pair of max? Du Haifeng loves Chinese and Western painting and calligraphy. He also has a lot of precious paintings in his collection. This painting can only be regarded as a general one in front of Du Haifeng. Other collections that he regards as treasures are killing him and he refuses to lend them to others.
Qin Yichen watched Du Haifeng take the oil painting out of the frame, roll it up and put it in a barrel. He was glad that this painting was the stepping stone to meet the general manager of Thomson's auction house. With him, he could walk into Thomson's auction house. After all, in terms of the general 10% commission of the auction house, a painting worth more than ten million dollars, If the auction is entrusted to them, it will bring them a net profit of at least one million US dollars. I'm afraid that if I don't speak at that time, the general manager of Thomson will also take the initiative to see myself.
Then, Qin Yichen thanks Du Haifeng and comes out with a bucket of paintings. He says to Du Yuqi, "I have to go out for a while. I'm afraid I can't go out with you this afternoon. You wait for me at home and go out with you tomorrow."
Du Yuqi nodded gently, but seeing that Qin Yichen was holding a bucket of paintings in his hand, he told him: "be more careful yourself."
Qin Yichen nodded a smile, went out and drove straight to Thomson's auction house. However, this time, instead of going to the first floor exhibition hall of Thomson's auction house, Qin Yichen went directly to the second floor and came to the customer reception.
At the customer reception, the customer who comes to the door on his own initiative needs to fill in a form. Fortunately, Qin Yichen studied hard in his last life and had a little English in his mind. Otherwise, he could not fill in a form well.
Qin Yichen finished filling out the form and handed it to the other party's staff. The staff member looked at Qin Yichen and exclaimed, "Sir, you want to entrust us to auction clothes, max? Beckman's paintings? "
Qin Yichen nodded, max? Beckman is also one of the most famous painters. Although he doesn't have to go up to Van Gogh and Da Vinci, it's very easy to increase the price of high-quality paintings by more than 10 million US dollars. Although this auction house is the first in North America, it's not every auction that has more than 10 million US dollars.
As soon as the staff member saw Qin Yichen nodding, he quickly invited Qin Yichen to the VIP room. Then, he brought Qin Yichen a cup of coffee and said respectfully, "just a moment, our appraiser will come right away. If your painting is authentic, our general manager will come to talk with you in person."
What Qin Yichen wants is such a result. He immediately nods and smiles and says OK.
Soon, an old man with a magnifying glass and other identification tools stepped in. After shaking hands with Qin Yichen, he asked expectantly, "Sir, can you show me your collection?"
Qin Yichen didn't refuse either. When he was about to open the painting barrel and took out the oil painting, the other side quickly and carefully spread the oil painting on the table. Just looking at it, he said, "it's very important to have a good understanding of the painting style, the overall layout, the use of color and the choice of paper? Beckman's style, you wait a moment, I will carefully identify it
Qin Yichen made a gesture of please, and the other side quickly observed it with a high-power magnifying glass. About 20 minutes later, he put away his tools, shook hands with Qin Yichen, and said excitedly: "as far as the preliminary judgment is concerned, it should be max? There is no doubt about Beckman's authentic works. You can wait here for our general manager to come over. He will personally talk about the details of cooperation with you. If cooperation is confirmed, we will send your paintings to professional organizations for more authoritative testing. If it is confirmed to be authentic, then we can enter the cooperation process. "
Qin Yichen smiles and says, "don't let your general manager come here. You can take me there. I'll go to his office to talk."
After all, the customer is the most important, so the customer manager nodded and said, "please put away the collection and come with me."
Qin Yichen collected the paintings, followed the customer manager to the top floor by elevator. The other party took Qin Yichen to the door of an office, knocked on the door gently, then pushed the door open and said to a middle-aged white man inside: "manager, who wants to entrust the auction of max? The client of Beckman's painting has arrived. "
The white man quickly stood up to meet him. The customer manager flashed to one side, and Qin Yichen stepped into the door and shook hands with the white man. Then, the other party quickly invited Qin Yichen to sit down on the sofa.
As soon as Qin Yichen entered the door, he began to observe whether the white man had the array that Ye Qing had been used before. If he had a look, it was not surprising! He as like as two peas in the body, there is a similar pattern in his body. It seems that the meteorite can enter the auction list temporarily. It must be that the fairy who had found him had found him and threatened him with his own tactics.
Qin Yichen sat down quietly. The account manager turned and left. Then the white man introduced himself: "Hello, I'm Tony, general manager of Thomson auction house."
Qin Yichen nodded and said, "my name is Addison."
Tony said excitedly: "I heard you want to entrust us to auction a pair of max? What do you think of the details of the cooperation? "
Qin Yichen was not interested in discussing this with him. Instead of answering his question, he directly separated a aura and used a puppet technique to him!
Later, Qin Yichen isolated the whole office from the outside world with aura, and asked directly, "who let you auction that meteorite?"
"It's a Chinese man surnamed Chen." Tony said with no expression: "he suddenly appeared in my house a few days ago and asked me to auction the meteorite."
Qin Yichen asked his doubts and said: "you are just a manager. You can auction your own things temporarily. Can you be the master alone? Don't need your head office's approval? "
Tony said truthfully: "this meteorite was purchased directly from clients by a Chinese female manager named Ye Qing. The price is very low. However, the purchase did not go through the account details through auction. Instead, I paid out of my own pocket. The purpose is to authorize the auction house to auction in the name of others, and then secretly earn a huge price difference."
Qin Yichen frowned. Ye Qing didn't tell him about it. Then he asked, "does Ye Qing know about it?"
"She doesn't know." Tony said: "she thought I was taking back the meteorite in the name of an auction house, but in fact, I made a deal with the seller in my own name. In order not to let Ye Qing tell me about it, I sent her to Huaxia on a business trip, and then found an excuse to fire her."
Qin Yichen nodded his head slightly. In this way, it was reasonable. He asked, "where is the meteorite now?"
"After testing the meteorite, I found that it might be valuable, so I deposited it in the vault of our auction house for the time being. On the day of the auction, it will be taken out," Tony said
Qin Yichen smacked his lips and said that maybe the immortal didn't know that Tony bought the meteorite in his personal capacity. Then he asked, "did the guy surnamed Chen come to you again later?"
"No Tony said truthfully, "he just called me and told me that the starting price should not be more than $300000."
Qin Yichen nodded and said in the tone of command: "on the day of the auction, I will appear at the scene. At that time, you should put the meteorite in the first place in the auction sequence. Don't make the relevant introduction too mysterious. Don't say that the material of the meteorite can't be detected. Just briefly introduce that it's an ordinary meteorite. Secondly, if the person surnamed Chen arrives, Remember to make an excuse for the staff of the auction house to refuse him to come into the auction
At this time, Tony is Qin Yichen's puppet. What Qin Yichen says, he will do exactly what he says, and will not consider the consequences at all. This is the best point of puppet art.
Qin Yichen's plan has basically taken shape. Now he has the qualification to participate in the auction. The invitation given to him by downing is still lying quietly in his storage ring. In this way, he can easily enter the auction venue at that time. In general, the first thing in the auction is worthless. In addition, if the auctioneer doesn't introduce meteorite more at that time, Then those buyers who rush for antiques and cultural relics will not be interested at all. They should be able to take the meteorite directly at a very low price. As long as the meteorite reaches their own hands, their goal will be more than half completed.
At that time, the immortal was blocked outside the meeting hall by the staff. With his three or four layers of cultivation during the gas refining period, he absolutely did not dare to break through in public. He had to choose to endure and then find Tony to settle the accounts. At that time, he just had to quietly follow Tony and wait for him to show up.
Immediately, Qin Yichen effortlessly dispels the array in Tony's body with aura, and then says to Tony, "if he contacts you these days, you will communicate with him in the normal way in the past, but remember to inform me the first time after you communicate with him."
Tony immediately nodded and said, "I see."
Qin Yichen stood up, threw a word to Tony, said: "these days you work normally, don't let others see the flaw."
With these words, Qin Yichen turned out of the door with his painting bucket.
After leaving Thomson's auction house, Qin Yichen drives back to Du Haifeng's manor. He doesn't need to worry about the rest. Before the auction starts, the other party can't take the meteorite from the vault by special means. In this way, he just needs to wait quietly. When the time comes, the meteorite will naturally fall into his own hands. Once he gets the meteorite, he can't get it, And find out the identity of the monk, and whether there are more powerful people behind him to support him, so that his trip to Vancouver can come to an end.
