v3 Chapter 1065： The country's largest acquisition of cultural relics

Xia Yu laughed loudly and said: "Okay, Director Yan, then I have to trouble you, no matter how many calligraphy and paintings you can bring, I will want it. You can choose the specific price. I believe you, I will arrange someone to follow You contact."

Yan Sihai nodded happily, "Mr. Xia, it's no trouble, please don't worry, I will do it well."

Liu Zhihe also said at this time: "Mr. Xia, we will also check you off."

Xia Yu waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Director Liu, you don't need to be so troublesome. You know I don't need this little money. As long as I don't let the museum suffer, and the masters don't suffer, I won't make it through my conscience.

Director Liu replied again and again, no longer mentioning it, but he still gave Yan Sihai a look at the moment Xia Yu turned around.

Yan Sihai nodded knowingly.

To be able to accompany Liu Zhihe throughout the journey, Xia Yu must be a distinguished guest from the mainland, and he does not need to mention Liu Zhihe. Yan Sihai also knows what to do. No matter when, political tasks are above all else, this concept has penetrated his bones.

And now it is really difficult for him to deal with these calligraphy and paintings here. Xia Yu is willing to buy them all, which has given the museum a huge help, and he is already content.

Amid Yan Sihai’s thanks, Xia Yu and Liu Zhihe went out, and the red flag car drove away from the National Revolutionary History Museum.

After getting in the car, Xia Yu, who had picked up at least "tens of billions", was very happy, with a smile on his face unconsciously.

Seeing Xia Yu in a good mood, thinking of what Xia Yu said in the museum just now, Liu Zhihe's heart moved and pretended to ask with interest: "Mr. Xia, you built the Kowloon Cultural Museum in Xiangjiang. I also heard about it in mainland China. , I heard that it contains a national treasure-level "Yongle Dadian", more than the Forbidden City?"

Xia Yu laughed and said modestly: "That is to say, the number of "Yongle Dadian" is more than that of the Forbidden City. In other respects, it is not worthy to carry shoes for the Forbidden City Museum.

"Although my Kowloon Cultural Museum is well-known in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, it has a long way to grow. It has only collected more than 10,000 cultural relics. Even if I add tens of thousands of calligraphy and painting now, it will only be tens of thousands. Unlike the Forbidden City Museum, which has a huge collection of millions of pieces, and each one is a fine piece of the finest, I can’t compare it!"

Liu Zhihe smiled and flattered and said, "Mr. Xia is humble. With your financial resources, it is not difficult to fill the collection of the Kowloon Cultural Museum to more than one million pieces."

Xia Yu shook his head with a bitter smile, and sighed: "Dr. Liu, it is not so easy. I want to buy back as much Chinese cultural relics as possible, and build the Kowloon Cultural Museum into a stage to showcase Chinese culture, but what about It is difficult to acquire overseas cultural relics."

Liu Zhihe immediately said: "Mr. Xia, it is very difficult to buy Chinese cultural relics overseas, but the difficulty is still very small in the mainland. If you need large quantities of cultural relics, you may wish to consider state-owned cultural relics stores."

"Antiquities store?"

Xia Yu became interested, and under Liu Zhihe's reminder, he also realized this good opportunity that he had overlooked.

It seems that in the 1970s and 1980s, there were cultural relic shops on the mainland that sold cultural relics. The purpose seemed to be to earn foreign exchange.

Liu Zhihe nodded and said, "Yes, the cultural relics store is the only store designated for cultural relics in the country."

Xia Yu asked with interest: "Director Liu, can you tell me more about it?"

Seeing Xia Yu's interest, Liu Zhihe lifted his spirits and carefully described the situation of the cultural relic store: "Mr. Xia, the cultural relic store is..."

As Liu Zhihe continued to tell, Xia Yu also learned about the cultural relics store. Although Liu Zhihe was an official person, his attitude was biased towards the official when he said it, but combined with some understanding of later generations, Xia Yu can also have his own judgment.

In general, the cultural relics store is now the nation’s only cultural relics acquisition and transaction platform established by the state. This is the only channel. If it is sold to other places, it is speculative and violates national laws. In addition, no other units or people dare to ask for it. .

The law only stipulates that what is buried underground belongs to the state, but there should not be too many cultural relics circulated by the people. This is private property and the people can sell it.

In order to regulate the cultural relics market and to protect precious cultural relics as much as possible, the state has set up cultural relics stores to purchase cultural relics.

After the acquisition, the precious cultural relics will be handed over to the museum from the cultural relics stores in various places, and the inferior ones will be sold as commodities to foreign guests in exchange for the precious foreign exchange needed for national construction.

It is also worth noting that the people on the mainland can sell cultural relics in cultural relics stores, but they cannot buy them in cultural relics stores. Cultural relics stores only sell cultural relics to foreign guests, because only foreign guests have foreign exchange.

It is worth mentioning that, considering the difficulty in selling cultural relics, cultural relics stores are not always rejecting visitors. The Foreign Trade Acquisition Department issues numbers for a limited period of time. A certain number of numbers are issued every day. If no number is listed, cultural relics stores will not. collected.

Moreover, cultural relics stores are also very picky about buying cultural relics, regardless of whether they are old cultural relics, anyway, as long as they are damaged or flawed, they will not be accepted.

No way, who has allowed the mainland folks to collect too many cultural relics? Even with such restrictions, there are queues waiting to sell cultural relics from night to morning in front of cultural relic stores everywhere.

Therefore, Liu Zhihe also assured Xia Yu that although the best cultural relics in the cultural relics store are already in the museum, the others are not bad. It is a good choice to buy to fill the museum.

After listening to Liu Zhihe, Xia Yu was of course tempted.

He did not dislike that what the cultural relics store is not the finest among the finest works, because he thought of a very crucial question.

There are so many cultural relics stores across the country. He does not believe that every cultural relics store is equipped with masters of all kinds, even the masters have the time to look away.

Therefore, in the cultural relics stores across the country, there must be fakes that were copied by the Republic of China, and there are also misread boutiques.

Whether it is a counterfeit or a treasure, at the current price, it is a few tens of dollars. At this price, the counterfeit that is bought in the Republic of China will be worth a lot of money in later generations. Anyway, it is a profit.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu didn’t hesitate, and immediately said to Liu Zhihe: “Director Liu, I want to buy these cultural relics. One hundred thousand pieces are not too small, and one million pieces are not too much. Anyway, I want as many as I want, and I am worried about my museum. It’s still empty. I will use foreign exchange for all the acquisition funds. The type of foreign exchange is whatever you want."

“And instead of buying these cultural relics by foreigners who don’t know how to appreciate it, I’d better buy them all and put them in the museum to realize the value of cultural communication. The people of Xiangjiang need these things to experience our bright Chinese culture and receive the baptism of spirit.”

When the latter words were said, Liu Zhihe's eyes lit up, and he realized the political value of it.

If Xia Yu’s words were fed back to him, he was sure that the above would definitely mobilize cultural relics to sell to Xia Yu, not only could earn foreign exchange, but also exert greater political value, which was tens of thousands of times better than selling to foreigners!

Therefore, he said without hesitation: "Mr. Xia, don't worry, I will report your ideas, and I will let you know as soon as the results are available!"

Xia Yu smiled and thanked: "Then I will trouble you."

Later, seeing that the time was still early, the energetic Xia Yu went to the Liuli Factory, accompanied by Liu Zhihe, and saw the cultural and entertainment market that had begun to flourish, and also saw that it has a history of more than 300 years and is now a state-owned enterprise. According to Liu Zhihe's introduction, the three characters of Rongbaozhai are still engraved with Guo Moruo's calligraphy ink as the standard.

There, Xia Yu saw the team selling cultural relics to the cultural relics store, and also saw the current value of the cultural relics, a piece of "300 pieces" of porcelain-a large size about 1.5 meters high with double ears and slippery shoulders. Porcelain bottles, the purchase price ranges from a few yuan to a dozen yuan, the price is simply not too low!

After strolling around in the afternoon, Xia Yu had a very deep understanding of the current status of cultural relics in the mainland, and he had already decided to do both.

On the one hand, let the government come forward to collect the cultural relics from the cultural relics store and sell them to him On the other hand, let the mainland establish a special company to privately purchase the cultural relics and store them, whether it is placed in a museum or for future Sotheby’s auctions. The mainland is an excellent choice as a heritage.

...

In the morning of the next day, Xia Yu had a meeting with senior officials in the mainland. The atmosphere during the whole process was very peaceful. Xia Yu grasped the scale, not only satisfied the mainland, but also gained a lot of space for himself.

And, as he expected, the mainland hopes that he can stabilize Xiangjiang as much as possible and play a positive role in the future of Xiangjiang.

The former is what Xia Yu is doing and planning, and the latter is what he is going to do right away. There is also a deep connection between the two.

Therefore, Xia Yu agreed to do his best, and decided to leave for the UK immediately after returning to Xiangjiang to do these things with all his strength, and asked the mainland to wait and wait for his results.

The mainland agreed, and also accepted Xia Yu's love, so that his goal of going north was achieved.

After the meeting, Xia Yu received a grand reception again, and during the meal, he reached an agreement with the mainland on the purchase of cultural relics. The mainland will make every effort to mobilize cultural relics from cultural relic stores across the country to sell to Xia Yu, and the price will be higher than that of foreigners. Some discounts.

Xia Yu doesn't care about some discounts, but since the mainland executives will express their views on this, then this means that his cultural relic trading with the mainland is not only a business, but also a political task.

As long as the mainland is serious, then this matter will definitely have a good result.

After Xia Yu had made up his mind to go back, he immediately explained to Huashengshi to expand the team so that he could receive an extremely large number of cultural relics.

In the afternoon of the same day, Xia Yu boarded the special train for the return journey in a warm farewell from the mainland.

PS: That's it for today. I have to go to the hospital again tomorrow. Thank you for your concern, thank you!
