Chapter 893: Hurry up and sell it, I'll paint you another one after it's sold

Mo Bai first chose a self-portrait of Picasso, that is, he painted himself.

Prepare the pen and paper, and start creating.

Mo Bai painted very quickly, without any pause or revision.

Mo Bai, who has the talent of systematic copying, in fact, to be honest, even with his eyes closed, Mo Bai can paint this painting.

In just half an hour, Mo Bai created this self-portrait.

After the painting, Mo Bai signed Picasso's name.

Yes.

Mo Bai is painting someone else's painting.

To put it simply, Mo Bai is making a fake.

It's just that, although it is a fake, it is exactly the same as the real thing, without any hint of falsehood.

Even world-class masters, purely from the perspective of painting, will think that Mo Bai's work is Picasso's genuine.

"Manager Ouyang. ”

"Mo Baida, you are too polite, speaking of which, I am also your fan, what manager, call me Ouyang. ”

Ouyang Shu is the manager of Christie's auction house in China, responsible for the auction business in China and the collection of rare objects from this side of China. Mo Bai's paintings before and some paintings from previous times were all handed over to Ouyang Shu to be in charge.

"Manager Ouyang is really good at talking, then I'll call you Ouyang." By the way, Ouyang, I have a painting for you here. ”

"Mo Baidu, you have another painting?"

"Yes. It won't be another gift from Prince Allenman. ”

Last time, Ouyang Shu recognized the "Farmer".

The reason why I recognize it is completely because the prince of Allenman auctioned it at their auction house some time ago.

You must know that at that time, Prince Allenman spent a high price of 300 million yuan.

It's just that I didn't expect that the prince of Alenman on the front foot was patted away, and Mo Bai on the back foot took the painting and sold it.

Moreover, this time it was sold at a loss.

Although he finally knew that this painting was given to Mo Bai by Allianman, it was precisely because he knew that Ouyang Shu couldn't cry or laugh.

Someone gives you a painting, and you sell it.

It's too shameless.

At this time, hearing that Mo Bai took out another painting, Ouyang Shu immediately thought that it was given by Prince Alenman.

"Don't worry, this one isn't. ”

Mo Bai is also embarrassed.

These guys, why do they love gossip so much.

Prince Allenman's painting was given to me, and it's mine, so you don't care if I keep it at home or sell it.

It's okay now, because of this, Mo Bai has another black spot.

Fortunately, Mo Bai has a cheerful personality, so he didn't take it too seriously.

"That's good. ”

Ouyang Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "This painting is also Paul's?"

"No, Paul's paintings are rubbish. ”

Mo Bai shook his head.

"Mo Baida, Paul's painting is already very good, where is the garbage. ”

Ouyang Shu couldn't help but laugh: "Could it be that you also took a master's work this time?"

"Of course. ”

"Which master's work?"

"Picasso. ”

"Picasso?"

"Yes. ”

"Mo Baida, don't fool me?"

"Am I like a fool?"

"Impossible, how can you have a Picasso painting?"

"I just have, anyway. ”

Mo Bai felt that Ouyang Shu was too ink, and said: "Ouyang, why do you say so much, if you don't believe it, forget it, I'll give it to Sotheby's." ”

"No, no, no, Mobai, don't. You're mistaken, I'm not trying to ask you where this painting came from, I'm so shocked. You know, the greatest painter of the 20th century was Picasso. Four of the world's top 10 most expensive paintings are by Picasso. ”

Ouyang Shu hurriedly explained: "Where are you, I'll go to you immediately." ”

Although he said so, Ouyang Shu still couldn't believe it.

This is Picasso.

How many painters in the world can surpass Picasso?

Arguably, there was no one in the 20th century.

Even if there were, it was some old antique.

Like Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo.

However, each of Leonardo da Vinci's and Michelangelo's paintings is a national treasure and cannot appear in the auction house.

Therefore, it is recognized by industry insiders around the world that the most expensive painting in the world is Picasso's painting.

It is precisely because Picasso's paintings are incomparably precious that every time Picasso's paintings appear, they will cause a global sensation.

Ouyang Shu really didn't know how Mo Bai could have Picasso's paintings?

However, as auction companies, they don't like to inquire about personal privacy.

This is the unspoken rule in the industry.

There are so many treasures in the world that we can't tell where they came from.

Extremely excited, Picasso immediately found three experts and went to the magic capital.

A glance at the identification, yes.

It is Picasso's work without a doubt.

"Oh my God. ”

"It turned out to be true. ”

"Mo Bai, oh my God, you're amazing. ”

When the three experts confirmed that this was Picasso's authentic handiwork, Ouyang Shu exclaimed excitedly.

"Thank you, Mobai, thank you. ”

"Hehe, Ouyang, what are you thanking me for, I still have to sell this painting for me. ”

"Don't worry, Mo Baida, I will definitely sell it to you at a good price. ”

"Of course, I believe you. ”

"That's right, Mo Baida, because this painting is so valuable, we are going to take this painting to Germany for auction, you know, Picasso and their paintings are very popular with Europeans. ”

"It's okay, you can sell wherever you want. ”

Mo Bai has no problem.

He only cares about money, and as for where to sell it, he doesn't bother to care.

Of course, Mo Bai is more happy to make money from gringos with such paintings.

"Okay. ”

Ouyang Shu nodded: "Then do you have any other requirements?"

"Request?"

Mo Bai thought for a while: "There aren't too many requirements, I just hope that you will sell this painting as soon as possible." When it's sold out, I'll paint another Picasso for you. ”

"Ah...... Draw one for us?"

"Mo Baida, you're really joking. ”

"Uh...... yes, yes, just kidding. ”

Mo Bai hurriedly shut up.

Damn, I almost missed my mouth just now.

"Okay, then I'll take my leave. ”

Holding back the excitement, Ouyang Shu immediately returned to the company and began to operate the auction of Picasso's self-portrait.

A week later, Christie's held an auction in Germany.

This is Christie's first auction of the year in Germany.

However, the auction market is highly competitive right now.

Although Christie's is also a well-known auction house in the world, it has also been subject to competition from its peers.

One of the biggest competitors is Sotheby's.

[German auction exhibition for auctions.] 】

The article commented: "Christie" has basically no particularly well-known finale in recent years. Instead, they took some ordinary things, used media hype, and sold them to some local tyrants who looked rich but were brainless. It's not like the style of a big auction house at all, but like an auction crook who travels the world.

This was the news published in Germany's largest newspaper before the German auction began.

Although it is the news published in the largest newspaper in Germany, everyone knows that it is Sotheby's influence in it.

It's just that although Sotheby's participated, I have to say that this news is very pertinent.

Christie's auction houses in recent times really don't have a particularly well-known finale.

Just like the previous issue, the finale turned out to be a diamond.

Although this diamond is a bit large, it is not a rare treasure.

It's just a pity that this time is different from the previous one.

In addition to Sotheby's major media attacking Christie's, Christie's belatedly announced the news that Picasso's self-portrait would be auctioned in Germany.
