12. Genuine and fake? (for collection, for recommendation)

(Speaking of the update problem, starting today, there will be two updates a day, around 6 p.m. and around 9 p.m.) )

……

"Yes, this is one of Vincent Willem van Gogh's most famous works, Sunflowers. Sister, you majored in art at university. As far as I can see, this painting is genuine. ”

In the small courtyard, Shi Lin said to Shi Qiu.

Shi Qiu carefully took the scroll, unfolded it, glanced at it, frowned, and said: "With my eyes, I can only say that the painting is exquisite, exactly the same as the "Sunflowers" exhibited in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. However, I heard that Van Gogh painted only three "Sunflowers" in his lifetime, and the original inspiration was created in Arles, France. The other two are said to have been painted for a friend. Of course, some people say that there are six existing "Sunflowers", one of which is in the Togo Qing'er Art Museum. I don't know whether this rumor is true or not, but as far as I know......"

As she spoke, she paused, stared at the oil painting in her hand, and continued: "But as far as I know, the Japanese "Sunflower" was auctioned by a well-known Japanese company at a cost of 22.5 million pounds in the 80s of the last century. At that time, it also caused a lot of sensation, and even drove a lot of economic benefits. But later, it was unanimously identified by several artists from the United Kingdom that the "Sunflowers" was a fake. ”

If it were anyone else, she would never have said that.

Because although these words are tactful, they are bound to offend people when they say them.

It's as if he's cursing people for their hard work and huge price to get a famous painting as a fake.

No one else will be happy.

But Shi Lin is her younger brother, and she doesn't want her brother to be deceived. I don't want my brother to be deceived and cause huge losses.

Although there is still a huge gap between her and Shi Lin, far from being as close as ordinary siblings, it doesn't mean that she doesn't care about her younger brother.

Shi Lin smiled when he heard this, why didn't he understand what his sister meant?

He said: "Don't worry, sister, after all these years, when have I missed it? However, if you want to put it up for auction, if you want the rich to believe that it's real, and if you want to get a high price, you need some artist appraisals. So I'm going to contact well-known artists in the UK and France and ask them to identify them. ”

Shi Qiu frowned when he heard this, will people come?

After thinking about it, she didn't dampen her brother's confidence, but said: "When I was in college, there was a professor who had a good personal relationship with a well-known British artist. If needed, I'll contact the professor and ask her to help with an introduction. I also have a good relationship with the professor, and I believe she will help. ”

When Shi Lin heard this, he was a little moved, shook his head with a smile, and said, "No, sister, don't worry, I know a famous artist, have you forgotten last year's sculpture?"

"It's Master Lens. ”

Shi Qiu suddenly, slowly scrolled the scroll, changed his voice, and asked, "Shi Lin, have you contacted Manager Zhao?" Yesterday he called again and asked if you had come back, and your mobile phone had a lot of contact. When you're on a business trip, why don't you even turn off your phone, and your parents won't talk about you. ”

At the end, she couldn't help but show a hint of blame in her voice.

When Shi Lin heard this, he smiled, didn't dwell on this problem, and just said, "Not yet, I'm about to go to the company, and I just have something to explain to Manager Zhao." ”

"Well, you don't seem to be driving, I'll send you. ”

Shi Qiu stood up and said.

"Good. ”

Shi Lin nodded and left the backyard with Shi Qiu.

Shi Qiu's car was a red Beetle, which her parents bought for her when her sister first came home.

After getting into the car, they headed for the 'Qiulin Auction House' on North Bund Street.

……

Qiulin Auction Company, located at No. 19 North Bund Street, is a six-story building. The exterior is in the Renaissance architectural style, and it looks very feeling.

This small building, covering an area of about 600 square meters, was originally bought in order to buy this small building, Shilin also made a lot of money, and auctioned a large number of Western Renaissance artworks abroad, including some national treasures.

It caused a huge sensation abroad at that time.

Bund North Street, with 36 classical revival buildings of different styles, lined up in a row, facing the Huangpu River, is one of the famous attractions in Shanghai.

This street is home to flagship stores of world fashion brands, internationally renowned restaurants, bars, art galleries, etc., and is a gathering place for the wealthy.

To be honest, according to the current scale of Qiulin Auction House, it is really a bit of a waste to occupy such a good position.

But Shi Lin didn't care.

"Sister, go up and sit down. ”

In front of Qiulin Auction House, Shi Lin said to Shi Qiu.

"No, you can go up. ”

Shi Qiu shook his head.

Shi Lin had no choice but to nod and said, "It's okay, let's go home and have a meal together in the evening." Today, Thursday, Mom and Dad should go home. ”

"Okay, I'll pick you up in the evening. ”

Shi Qiu nodded.

Shi Lin sighed, got out of the car, and watched his sister's car leave.

Watching the car go away, he carried his bag and walked towards the building.

"Ah, Chairman, you're here. ”

"Hello chairman. ”

As soon as I walked into the hall, the security guards, the passing employees, and the front desk lady greeted each other.

Although Shi Lin rarely manages the company, he has been here a few times. For the big boss of the company and the employees in the company, everyone naturally keeps it in mind.

Even if it is a new employee, it will be the first time to understand and understand who his boss is. So as not to run into the boss who does not know, cause trouble and embarrassment.

"Hmm!Where's Manager Zhao?"

Shi Lin asked the front desk lady.

"Chairman, Mr. Zhao is in the upstairs office. ”

The front desk lady hurriedly said.

Shi Lin nodded and walked towards the elevator.

"It's so handsome, every time I see the chairman, my heart is restless, and my legs are hot. ”

The front desk lady said like a nymphomaniac.

"It's an itch between your legs, I see you're missing a cucumber. ”

One of the pretty-looking front desk ladies quipped.

"Okay Xiaoyun, don't be a nymphomaniac, the chairman is worth more than 100 million at a young age, and he doesn't look down on you. ”

Another front desk lady struck.

"Cut! I can't think about it!"

That Xiao Yun pursed her lips and said, "I heard that the chairman is on a business trip again, do you say that you are preparing for the company's third anniversary?

"Who knows! It's not our business. ”

Several front desk ladies shook their heads.

……

On the other side, Shi Lin took the elevator to the top floor and came to his chairman's office. Open the bag and place the scroll on your desk.

I opened the curtains, glanced out, and pressed the communicator on the table.

After a while, there was a knock on the office door.

shouted 'Please come in', and a middle-aged man in his 40s walked in, he was Zhao Ying, the general manager of 'Qiulin Auction House'.

"Chairman, you're finally back. ”

Walking into the office and seeing the stone forest, Zhao Ying shouted in surprise.
