The first transaction was completed quickly, and everyone was happy!
Brandon left the Bartley Hotel with the Gardner Museum and the twelve top antique artworks that were recovered and lost!
Of course, at the same time of excitement, they were also in pain, secretly wondering how to curse Ye Tian!
That's 320 million dollars! Anyone who is knocked away with such a large amount of wealth will feel like a knife!
They listened to Ye Tian's suggestion and left from the air on an Airbus H155. The **** truck on the ground and the SWAT armored vehicle followed up simultaneously, just as a cover for cover!
When the Airbus H155 roared from the apron on the roof of the hotel, the transaction in the conference room had started again.
Sitting across from Ye Tian this time, Isaac, the director of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and several staff from this museum, as well as senior officials from AXA Art Insurance Company.
In addition to them, there are a lot of artworks in the conference room, and all of them are paintings, some from China, some from Europe and the United States.
As before, several museum appraisal experts were the first to go on stage, and they quickly reached an appraisal conclusion.
"Isaac, after identification, we can say with certainty that this is the batch of top art stolen in our museum. Every piece is authentic, without any doubt!
Renoir's "Out of the Bath", Gainsborough's "River View", and Pissarro's "The Road in the Snow", we were able to recover all of them. It was a truly beautiful day!
It is a pity that these three top Chinese works of art are leaving us in the Southern Song Dynasty Li Tang’s "Autumn Scenery of the Country", Ni Zan’s "Maple Forest Night Return" in the Yuan Dynasty, and the Bada Shanren’s "Songgu Mountain Village" in the early Qing Dynasty. Up!
Picasso’s "Woman by the Sea" is indeed a work two years after he founded Cubism. There are three paintings of the same subject, each of which can be called a masterpiece of art and is one of Picasso's masterpieces!
For this Picasso painting with the Chinese art in our collection, we agreed with both hands. The Boston Museum of Fine Arts needs such a heavyweight artwork, which will make our museum even more outstanding! "
An appraisal expert at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston read out the appraisal conclusion, very emotional.
At the same time, the eyes of Isaac and the other appraisal experts were all focused on the Picasso painting, their eyes were extremely hot, and they were not willing to move away for a moment.
This Picasso's "Woman by the Sea" is a masterless painting, which already belongs to Ye Tian at this time, and was used by him to exchange it with the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
The target of the exchange was those three famous ancient Chinese paintings, three other famous paintings also from ancient China, and a large green dollar.
The three famous paintings of Li Tang, Ni Zan and Bada Shanren among the stolen artworks originally belonged to Ye Tian. Of course he would not be polite!
What really matched Picasso's paintings were three other famous Chinese paintings and large sums of cash!
Compared with Picasso's paintings, the market value of the three famous ancient Chinese paintings is obviously far less, so they will exchange one for three, plus a large sum of cash!
In this transaction, both parties have gains.
The Boston Museum of Fine Arts paid for a few famous Chinese paintings, but got a peak work by the top art master. I am naturally very happy!
As for the large sum of US dollars, to put it bluntly, it was not taken out of their pockets.
The money was basically the insurance indemnity paid by AMB Art Insurance Company before. The Boston Museum of Fine Arts only paid less than 5 million US dollars. There is nothing to bear!
From this point of view, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts has not lost much.
Needless to say, Ye Tian has not only obtained six famous ancient Chinese paintings, each of which is top art, but also a large sum of U.S. dollars, which is definitely a profit!
From this point of view, it seems that only AMB Art Insurance Company suffered losses, but it is not true.
For them, this insurance indemnity was originally prepared to be lost, and they did not expect to be able to recover it. Now they can recover half of it, which is already a surprise!
Even so, they are not prepared to bear this loss.
Those who really should bear these losses are those international art thieves headed by Thompson! And those unethical collectors!
Soon, Anbo Art Insurance Company will send all these guys to court and pass on all the losses to these guys.
In addition, there is a more important reason, so that AMB Art Insurance Company is not opposed to the current transaction!
The FBI art crime team found the diary that recorded the records of the stolen goods, and began to follow the picture to summon the immoral collectors who collected the stolen goods!
In the future, more stolen antique artworks will surface, and the indemnities paid by various art insurance companies will naturally continue to return!
For insurance companies, this is the most important thing!
As soon as the appraisal expert finished reading the appraisal conclusion, Isaac couldn't wait to push a check over.
"Steven, let's start trading. This is a cash check for $30 million, which can be cashed at any time. The few Chinese artworks you call for are right in front of your eyes and can be traded!"
After speaking, he stared at Ye Tian, looking forward to hearing the answers he wanted most.
But Ye Tian shook his head and said with a chuckle:
"Mr. Isaac, don't worry, I haven't appraised these ancient Chinese paintings you brought. When the appraisal is completed, we won't be too late to trade!"
"Okay! Please, although I don't think it is necessary at all!"
Isaac said helplessly, and could only hold back his temper and continue to wait.
Later, Ye Tian got up and walked to the three famous Chinese paintings that he had just brought from the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, and began another one-man show.
As before, his identification is fast.
While Isaac was still dumbfounded and exclaimed, he had completed the assessment and sat back at the conference table.
"OK! Mr. Isaac, you can start trading!"
Ye Tian said with a light smile, awakening the people on the opposite side.
Next, the two parties entered the transaction link and everything went smoothly.
Ten minutes later, Isaac and his party walked out of the conference room, left the Bartley Hotel briskly with four top paintings, and returned to the Boston Museum of Art.
When Isaac and the others left, they were escorted back by the SWAT special police of the Boston police and the museum's own security forces. They were very safe!
In the conference room, Ye Tian had already picked up the $30 million check, and his smile was extremely bright!
Matisse and Jason were quickly packing up, putting all the six newly acquired ancient Chinese paintings in a temporary safe prepared in advance.
In just two or three minutes, everything was packed.
"Jason, please come in with a few gentlemen from the Harvard University Museum, and at the same time move in the four stolen antique artworks that belonged to them, and you can start the next transaction!"
Ye Tian said with a smile, his whole face was radiant, he appeared very confident and full of fighting spirit!
"Ok!"
Jason responded with excitement, then turned and walked out of the meeting room, with wind at his feet.
Soon, a group of people from the Harvard University Museum entered the conference room. Everyone looked polite and didn't look impatient!
But the excitement that flashed in their eyes revealed the truest emotions in their hearts.
These few do not have Chinese antique art works at hand. Their solution to the problem is very simple. It is to use money. When did Harvard University lack money?
Besides, they don't actually pay much, and most of them are insurance indemnities.
Seeing them come in, Ye Tian immediately stood up and said to himself:
"Don't be polite with them, this is a bunch of guys who don't need money, you can kill them!"
Of course, these words can't be said, what he said is completely different.
"Gentlemen, please sit down. It is a great honor to sit across from you!"
"You don't need to be so politeSteven, as long as your kid is merciful, it's better than anything!"
Robert said with a wry smile, apparently already aware of being slaughtered.
"Hahaha"
Amidst the laughter, several people took their seats one after another.
Inside the banquet hall.
People gathered together in small groups to chat, and the topics were basically the same.
Either the international art crime group headed by Thompson, or the stolen top art on the scene, or Ye Tianhe's ongoing transaction and so on!
While chatting, everyone was tasting wine!
Everyone in the banquet hall is basically holding a champagne glass in their hands. The amber top champagne in the glass exudes a sweet taste! Refreshing!
In addition to fine wine, the banquet hall also has the best food and desserts in Boston, which everyone can enjoy.
However, the focus of many people at the scene was not on food and wine, but on the temporary meeting room in the corner of the banquet hall.
As the people of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts left contentedly, a group of Harvard University Museum walked into the conference room, and there was a burst of discussion in the banquet hall.
"Wow! The transaction speed is so fast. How long is this! It's the third museum. Doesn't Steven identify those Chinese antique artworks?"
"How could it not be appraised? This situation only shows one thing. The speed at which Steven is appraising antiques is so fast that it cannot be judged by common sense at all!"
Among the discussions, five minutes passed quickly.
The door of the temporary meeting room opened again, and a group of Harvard University Museum came out, holding four antique works of art originally belonging to their museum. Everyone smiled very brightly.
Then, a representative of another museum was invited into that conference room by Jason!
The transaction continues!
