Ma Wei, the unusually standard Mandarin, really surprised the Chinese people present. Even the director of the British Museum, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but look at him differently. was obviously surprised by the talent of the young man in front of him.

Being young, powerful and knowledgeable, he not only helped Britain solve the economic crisis of leaving the European Union. And English, Chinese, and spoken so standardly, is simply an all-round genius and geek......

"Mr. Ma Wei, I didn't expect your Chinese to speak so standardly!" said the chief of the gold pavilion with a thumbs up to Ma Wei.

"It's over, Curator Jin, I'm just in front of you, and I'm getting an axe. Ma Wei replied modestly with a faint smile. It's nice to have the opportunity to speak your native language.

Seeing the Russian young man in front of him, who was so modest and introverted at such a young age, the more than 10 experts and scholars present couldn't help but recognize him in their hearts. It is not an easy task to get these high-ranking intellectuals to nod their heads in approval.

Five minutes later, led by the director of the British Museum and government officials, everyone arrived at the vault where eight artifacts were stored. When the warehouse door opened, a peculiar smell wafted out of the crack. This is a special reagent prepared by the staff of the British Museum in the conservation and restoration of cultural relics.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is our collection of the British Museum's "Female Historian", Liangzhu Cultural Jade Cong...... We are very sorry for the war that we in Britain waged against your country. For this reason, these eight cultural relics will be returned to China intact. The director of the British Museum, Joe Gers, said solemnly to Director Jin and the others.

British historians are also very aware of how much pain the British and French coalitions and the Eight-Nation Coalition caused to China during the Opium War. Including Director Jojes himself, his grandfather, who was also involved in the war in the first place. This is something that Jojes only heard from his father when he was growing up.

I heard the director of the British Museum apologize so solemnly. I saw the 10 experts and scholars standing in front of me, their faces were moved, and they were obviously moved......

Ma Wei, who was standing on the side of the vault, to be honest, really didn't expect such a show. Although his current body is Russian. But for Director Jojes's apology, he could still feel a trace of unexplained throbbing.

……

After the short sensationalism, the next thing is the most important thing, that is, to verify the authenticity of the cultural relics and ensure that they can be transported back to China intact.

"Shhh...... Lao Lu, come and take a look! This is the "Female History Atlas" copied in the Tang Dynasty in China, compared with the copy of our museum, it is obvious that the nine paragraphs preserved by the British Museum are more vivid, and the painting is exquisite...... "The two experts in charge of the study of Chinese painting came to the table with the "Female History Atlas" with great excitement.

This painting is known as the first Chinese painting in Chinese history, and has milestone significance and value. Seeing the two experts and scholars, they were so excited that their hands trembled a little.

"Hmm...... It is indeed a genuine handiwork from the Tang Dynasty, Gu Kaizhi's painting style and brushwork are like spring silkworms spinning silk, and they have both form and spirit. The gossamer drawing technique used makes the lines in the painting circle and graceful, even and graceful. This set of facsimiles is much better than the ones preserved in our country. Now it is a great blessing for the country to be able to lose and regain..."Another expert in Chinese painting also stood in front of the painting with excitement.

Gu Kaizhi was an outstanding painter and poet in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He and Cao Buxing, Lu Tanwei, and Zhang Seng are collectively known as the "Six Dynasties and Four Families".

Gu Kaizhi's paintings are intended to convey the spirit, and his arguments such as "moving imagination is wonderful" and "depicting the god in form" have laid a very important foundation for the development of traditional Chinese painting.

Although the original work of "The Female Historian" has been lost. But fortunately, the two sets of facsimiles from the Tang Dynasty have been relatively well preserved. Now the best works that have been lost for a hundred years can be recreated in front of you. This is really exciting for these experts who have devoted their lives to the study of Chinese painting.

Not only the experts of Chinese painting were so excited that they almost cried, but even the experts of ancient ceramics and ancient cultural relics not far away were almost choked by the precious cultural relics in front of them......

"That's right, this is indeed our Shang and Zhou period's plutonium, this kind of musical instrument was popular in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, it is not like the bell mouth is arc-shaped, it is flat. The cross-section of the body is oval. ”

"Now there are three inscriptions on the puncture found in our country, namely the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Suming Hammer of the Qi State, the late Spring and Autumn Period, the Shuyi Pendant of the Qi State, and the late Spring and Autumn Period. And the British Museum preserves this pit at least 600 years before the Spring and Autumn Period!"

……

More than 10 experts and scholars at the scene looked at the 8 cultural relics in front of them as if they had been treasured. From the perspective of value, the eight cultural relics returned by Ma Wei to the British Museum can be sold for at least 920 million US dollars. The point is that this is still a situation where there is no market.

"Mr. Ma Wei, thank you so much this time!" After confirming the historical relics, Director Jin of the National Museum gratefully shook Ma Wei's hands and thanked him.

Including those experts and scholars behind him, they also gathered up one after another and thanked Ma Wei, "Mr. Ma Wei, if it weren't for you this time, I'm afraid we wouldn't know that these precious cultural relics such as "The Female History of Zhentu" and the Liangzhu Cultural Jade Cong are preserved in the British Museum. It's not so easy to get them back. ”

An antiquities expert with glasses, solemnly and chatteringly, thanked Ma Wei.

In fact, everyone present knew that in this case, Ma Wei could have chosen not to tell the country and chose to treasure it privately. In this way, the country may never know where these 8 national treasure-level cultural relics ended up.

After all, there were at least a million cultural relics lost in the Old Summer Palace. Many of them have been auctioned and resold internationally by foreigners. or kept in their own country's museum for visitors to see.

In addition to this, there are many cultural relics that are in private collections, and there is no chance of exposure at all. This also makes it much more difficult to recover cultural relics. At least for auctions, you can buy it for money. If the exhibition is in the museum, maybe one day the two countries will establish diplomatic relations, and the other side will take the initiative to return it......

"You're welcome, these are the things I should do!" replied with a smile. Fortunately, these 8 historical relics preserved in the British Museum are all authentic. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if there were counterfeit antiques mixed in.
