Chapter 430: Forced Buy
It turns out that this and Mas are really here for that painting!
I just don't know, does he also know the secret hidden in that maple leaf oil painting?
"What Mr. Maas said was the maple leaf oil painting I bought yesterday?" Chu Ning said suspiciously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"That's right, it's that maple leaf painting!" He snapped his fingers with Maas, his eyebrows and eyes showing undisguised excitement.
"I see." Chu Ning's expression was even more puzzled, "But I heard from the shopkeeper that that painting has been hanging in their store for nearly a hundred years." Since Mr. and Maas were interested in the painting, why didn't they send someone to buy it sooner? ”
As soon as he talked about this, he was very annoyed in his heart, and his face unconsciously brought out.
He has been fond of oil painting since he was a child, and he has studied painting for nearly 20 years. And Monet's Sunrise. Impressions and Sunset are two of his favorite paintings.
Especially "Sunset", which seems to be simple but is actually extremely profound.
When he learned that "Sunset" was in the collection of the Musée Mamonda in Paris, France, he Maas thought of many ways to acquire the painting from the museum.
Anyway, he is not short of money, even if the museum offers a sky-high price, it is no problem!
But how could the museum agree?
For this reason, he and Maas almost wanted to contact the international thief and ask someone to help him steal the painting back.
Just when he was really about to do this, the oil painting appraiser he invited suddenly told him that the "Sunset" in the Mamonda Museum's collection was most likely a fake!
Is this worth it?!
Shocked, he Maas immediately contacted several internationally renowned oil painting appraisal masters and asked them to go to the Mamonda Museum together to carefully verify the authenticity of this oil painting.
When several master appraisers arrived at the Mamonda Museum together, they were alarmed.
And when he knew the intention of He Mas to bring these people here, the curator's face turned dark, and he almost didn't directly sweep out a few people with a big broom!
Where did these people come to identify oil paintings, they are clearly here to slap the museum in the face!
In the end, the curator who was persuaded took the master appraiser he had invited, and on the night after the museum closed, together with several master appraisers invited by Maas, he re-appraised the "Sunset" alone.
As soon as the appraisal results came out, everyone was naturally shocked.
The exquisite craftsmanship of "Sunset", which is not inferior to the original, is really a fake!
The news has not yet been disseminated, and it has been kept very tightly.
The painting "Sunset" is still in the display case of the Mamonda Museum, enjoying the visit of countless tourists every day.
But in the world of oil painting and antiques in France, many people already know that this is a fake.
Not to mention how anxious the director of the Mamonda Museum was, after learning that the "Sunset" in the museum turned out to be a fake, he and Maas began a long journey to find the whereabouts of the real "Sunset".
It took him so much manpower and financial resources to finally find the clue of McYerson Street after two years.
But just when he thought that he could finally include "Sunset" in his collection room this time, the maple leaf oil painting that might contain clues to "Sunset" was actually bought by a Chinese girl who had just come to New York!
That's right, and Mas didn't know that "Sunset" was hidden in the maple leaf oil painting, he just knew that there were probably clues about "Sunset" in the maple leaf oil painting.
For this clue that may not exist, and Mas is willing to pay a price of 200,000 dollars!
After learning that the maple leaf oil painting had been bought, it was like a thunderbolt flashing above Maas's head.
But he soon found out the identity of the person who bought the maple leaf oil painting, and even found out the real purpose of the group of Chinese people who came to New York this time.
Therefore, he made a decision as soon as possible, and sent Albert to personally invite Chu Yingluo and others.
"Of course I wanted to buy it, but it just fell behind Miss Chu." "Now I want to buy this painting and am willing to pay $200,000, does Miss Chu agree?" ”
Chu Yingluo and Shi Jin both looked at Chu Ning nervously.
Facing everyone's attention, Chu Ning smiled suddenly: "It's just an ordinary maple leaf oil painting, although I like it very much, I can still spend money to buy a second one." Since Mr. and Maas are willing to pay a high price, of course I do. ”
I didn't expect Chu Ning to agree, even if he was determined to get the maple leaf oil painting, he was stunned for a moment.
Chu Yingluo and Shi Jin were even more shocked.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a man and Mars in front of them, the two of them would have jumped up in surprise!
That's an oil painting of "Sunset" worth hundreds of millions of dollars, Chu Ning agreed to sell it so happily?!
Could it be that Chu Ning is afraid of this and Maas, and would rather spend money to buy peace?
Chu Yingluo and Shi Jin were both a little annoyed in their hearts.
If only they could be stronger.
In that case, they would be able to protect Chu Ning from making her do a deal she didn't want to do.
Or, if this were on the land of China, they would never be so threatened by Hemas!
But this is New York that they can't do anything!
"Miss Chu, really?!" And Mas was pleasantly surprised, "Then when are we going to trade?" ”
"I put the oil painting in the hotel, so I can only go back and pick it up now." Chu Ning said, "By the way, there is one more thing, I have to make it clear to Mr. Hemas first. ”
"Miss Chu, please speak." He and Mars are now very easy to talk to, and they want to let Chu Ning Lion open his mouth.
Chu Ning said a little embarrassedly: "After I bought the maple leaf oil painting yesterday, I was excited for a while and wanted to take a closer look at the oil painting, but I accidentally wiped some pigments on the surface of the oil painting, and the whole oil painting was destroyed." In that case, would Mr. and Maas still be willing to pay 200,000 dollars for it? ”
What she was referring to was, of course, the small trace that was slightly rubbed by Chu Ying.
The oil painting is scratched?
He Mas frowned, feeling that these Chinese really didn't know how to take care of their Western oil paintings.
But anyway, his real purpose is not the maple leaf oil painting, and it doesn't seem to matter too much whether the oil painting has been damaged or not.
"How could such a thing happen?" And Maas said with a sad face, "Forget it, who told me that I just like this painting?" I said that it was $200,000, and I definitely wouldn't go back. ”
Chu Ning: "......"
Hehe.
Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.
I didn't expect this aristocratic person to act with Maas, but there was still something like that.
It's just that the expression is too fake, and I have to practice more.
