Chapter 1172: The Arrival of Tang Jinmo and the Others

Seeing Fang You's demeanor and actions that were the same as his own, Wang Lao smiled with relief, why should he escape, that humiliating history must be faced head-on, no matter where these cultural relics are placed, they still belong to China and represent the culture of China.

Those robbers don't even have the slightest bit of shame, and some of them are proud, so why do they, the owners of the cultural relics, need to run away, why don't they want to see these cultural relics?

Wang Lao has always believed that these cultural relics will all return to China, maybe it will take decades, maybe it will take hundreds of years, but it will definitely come back, certainly, this is the belief that he has always adhered to, even if he can't see it later, but it is still unswerving.

He understands very well that the current country is obscure, numb to the enemy, and then slowly grow stronger, and when the country is strong enough to become the first in the world, then the cultural relics stolen by these countries do not need to be claimed by themselves, and they will take the initiative to return them.

But during this period, you can't do nothing in the world, just like Fang You said, if you can't even do basic anger and basic **, then in the future, even if the country becomes stronger, then I'm afraid these cultural relics will be forgotten by all the people, and even forgotten by those in power.

He didn't know about others, but he knew that the young man Fang You next to him was a person who was very concerned about the loss of cultural relics, and he had great ability, and his attainments in antiques were far beyond what others could compare.

What gratified him the most was Fang You's attitude of daring to face it, only in this way could he throw away his fear and come up with a way to better return these cultural relics, in order to make some of the cultural relics of China return, Fang You even did not hesitate to auction two small island national treasures that he had just obtained, and in exchange for others, he would rather have national treasures than choose to exchange for these fine Chinese cultural relics that may not be as precious as national treasures.

Wang Lao felt that as long as there were more people like Fang You in Huaxia, then with the strength of the country, the cultural relics lost overseas would slowly come back.

Through this time in the afternoon, Fang You and Wang Lao and others watched most of the exhibits of the Louvre, among them, the treasures plundered from foreign countries accounted for a large part, if the foreign cultural relics of the Louvre were recovered by the country where they were located, then, the Louvre, a world-class art palace, will really cease to exist, and the rest is basically just an empty shell, which has to be said to be the sadness of French culture.

After the visit, it was dinner time, with the lesson of dinner a few days ago, some scholars from China concentrated on the discussion, and then Wang Lao proposed to the Louvre that there was no need to prepare a dinner every day, let them solve it on their own, the French cultural department and the Louvre naturally agreed, although it was a public expense, but a dinner in a five-star hotel, but not cheap.

Now, after the visit, after saying goodbye to the Louvre staff, Fang You and Wang Lao led everyone to the Chinatown where Paris is located, which is full of a familiar taste, the signboards written in Chinese characters, and the traditional Chinese items that are constantly being sold on the street, which really makes people feel like they have returned home.

There are many places where Chinese people live in Paris, and the place where Fang You and Wang Lao came is the largest Chinese gathering area in Paris, with a variety of Chinese restaurants, as well as supermarkets selling Chinese food, and even some well-known instant noodles in China, which can be found in supermarkets.

Mr. Wang, who has been working in the Palace Museum for decades, has been to Paris several times, and at this time, he walked into a Chinese restaurant with the crowd, took a look at the door, and then greeted the boss warmly.

The boss is a middle-aged man, and when he saw Mr. Wang, he was immediately a little excited to invite Mr. Wang in, and then directly arranged a private room, and went to the kitchen to arrange the meal.

According to Wang Lao, this middle-aged man has some hobby of antiques, when he came here for the first time, just pointed out, this middle-aged man is grateful for this, every time he comes, he cooks in person, and the meals he makes are much more delicious than ordinary restaurants.

The food was served, the fragrance was overflowing, so that all the cultural relics scholars who were tired of eating Western food moved their fingers, under the sound of Wang Lao's meal, everyone picked up chopsticks one after another, and had a full meal, only in a foreign country, can they understand how delicious and rare the food they usually eat.

After a full meal, Fang You and the others exchanged ideas in the restaurant for a while, then walked around Chinatown and returned to the hotel where they were staying.

Soon after returning to the hotel, Fang You received the latest information from the French intelligence liaison station, Tang Jinmo and the others had arrived in Paris this morning, and were arranged by the personnel of the liaison station to enter the house in the suburbs, waiting to meet him.

Moreover, Tang Jinmo himself also sent information to Fang You through personnel, and the three people he brought were completely trustworthy and very reliable, so that Fang You did not need to worry.

Looking at the information sent by Tang Jinmo, Fang You's heart warmed, and he couldn't help but smile, even without Tang Jinmo's information, he could know whether these three people were reliable or not, the Dragon War Intelligence Agency had completely mastered all the experiences of these three people from childhood to adulthood, and even some secret things.

In Europe and the United States, the capabilities of the Dragon War intelligence organization may not be very large, but in Asia and Africa, the ability of the intelligence organization is very strong.

According to the information from the Dragon War Intelligence Headquarters, the three people brought by Tang Jinmo have the skills he needs, and the three of them are brothers of the same father and mother, but because their grandfather was shot dead by the small island people during World War II in order to protect some cultural relics in the family, they are very angry with the small island people, and they also hate the robbers who robbed the Chinese cultural relics.

Tang Jinmo met them in a small island country, and the purpose of their trip to the small island country was not the same as Tang Jinmo's, Tang Jinmo went to the small island country only to copy the Chinese treasures and calligraphy in the major museums of the small island country, so that the Chinese people could see these precious paintings and calligraphy without going abroad.

And the three of their brothers, but in order to take revenge on these small island people who robbed their Chinese things, the three brothers began to learn the knowledge of cultural relics since childhood, and then began to imitate cultural relics, after decades of continuous practice, now they are middle-aged, their imitation skills, is already very powerful, although it is impossible to avoid some experts with deep eyesight, but fooling the general second- and third-rate experts, it is still not a problem.

When they became skilled, they came to the small island country, constantly imitating antiques and cultural relics, and then selling them to the small island people through underground channels, they wanted to get retribution for these people, mistakenly believing that the family heirlooms they sold were in fact just fakes they had imitated.

The three brothers are all involved in various types of imitation of cultural relics, but only one is the most proficient, and the three brothers are different, some are proficient in porcelain, some are proficient in bronze, and some are proficient in jade.

Under a coincidental opportunity, Tang Jinmo met the three brothers, and the three brothers learned that Tang Jinmo's purpose for coming to the small island country was immediately admired, although the three of them were only for revenge, but they also had interests, but Tang Jinmo was only for the Chinese people to see these cultural relics, for this reason, the three brothers and Tang Jinmo became best friends in these years of continuous communication.

When Fang You was about to ask him to find a few people and go to France, he thought about it, and then asked Fang You to get confirmation, and told Fang You's identity to these three people, after all, Fang You's identity and what he has done over the years will further increase the probability that these three people agree with this matter and increase the chance of going to France.

Knowing who they were doing for this time, and knowing that Fang You had obtained many looted cultural relics from the small island country through his own means, they were very excited in their hearts, as if they had found an organization at once.

Although the three of them are counterfeit in China, most of them are sold to foreigners, or they are sent abroad through underground channels.

His grandfather was originally a collector of cultural relics, and his family had cultural relics left by his ancestors and his own collection, but he was all snatched away by the little devils, and he did not let go of his elderly grandfather, the father of the three brothers was in the prime of life at the time, and wanted to rush out to fight with them, but he was pulled by their grandmother, saying that if you fight with them, who will avenge **.

After more than ten years, they were born, and they followed their father to learn the knowledge of cultural relics, and after indoctrination from childhood to adulthood, they hated these small island people who robbed them of their cultural relics, so that by imitating cultural relics, those small island people used a hundred times the money to buy a worthless fake.

After meeting Tang Jinmo later, they felt that revenge was not wrong, but they also needed to take back the cultural relics of Huaxia and his grandfather when they took revenge.

For Fang You, they had also learned some about it before, but it was not as specific as Tang Jinmo said, in order to return the Chinese cultural relics, they did not hesitate to exchange two small island national treasures for it, compared to Fang You, they were like three people blinded by hatred, and they didn't know what they should do, but now they understood that they wanted to do their best to help Fang You this time.

Although they didn't know what cultural relics Fang You needed them to imitate, no matter what, they would do their best, just because they admired what Fang You had done, and that's it.

Money, they are not lacking, with the ability of the three of them to imitate cultural relics, it is enough to fool second- and third-rate experts, not to mention those half-baked antique dealers, just make a few pieces, it is enough for them to live for a long time, what they lack is the belief that they are working hard for the return of Chinese cultural relics like Brother Tang and Fang You.

Thinking back to some things about these three brothers, Fang You smiled slightly, it was precisely because he had read the information of these three brothers that he decided that these three people were reliable surnames.

When he learned that the three people Tang Jinmo was looking for were brothers, Fang You couldn't help but be a little surprised, it was not uncommon for a family of brothers to do all the imitation of cultural relics, but there were very few people like these three brothers who were proficient in a cultural relics imitation technique.

Most of the family-style imitation workshops are mainly based on imitating a certain type of cultural relics, such as the porcelain counterfeiting that Fang You encountered in Tianjing last time, from family members to relatives, they are all imitation porcelain, these three brothers can each be proficient in a type, and their efforts are far beyond ordinary people.

In this society of interests, there will always be some people who are not subject to interests, Tang Jinmo, these three brothers are like this.

Now that the four of Tang Jinmo have arrived in Paris, it is time to meet with them and determine the implementation time of the plan, after all, he is very good at antique identification, but he is not good at counterfeiting cultural relics, and he can't know how long it takes for a cultural relic to be completed from imitation to finality.

Fang You smiled, and through the liaison staff of the hotel where he stayed, he sent a message to Tang Jinmo, asking them to meet tomorrow night in Chinatown in the thirteenth block of Paris, after all, Chinatown is full of Asian faces, which is very conducive to the concealment of the meeting, and the house where Tang Jinmo and the four of them live must be completely kept secret, otherwise once exposed, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Sending off the liaison staff, Fang You smiled, looked at the still brilliant night in Paris, and said softly in his heart, The plan will officially start tomorrow, Christie's auction house, I hope you don't let me down.

The next day is the time for the Louvre and the Palace Museum to hold a symposium on cultural relics appreciation, which may be more appropriate to call it a competition for treasures.

This time, counting the two treasures in the upper tour, the Palace Museum brought a total of 22 national treasure-level cultural relics, if it were not for the fact that the Cultural Relics Bureau knew that the French side might have ulterior motives, then the cultural relics brought would be more.

After the conference, the artifacts will also be displayed for the public to see in France and around the world.

Of course, in addition to the exchange of cultural relics, there will be exchanges between the two countries in the future on the experience of cultural relics research, so as to truly achieve the significance of exchanges.

At the end of the whole exchange activity, it was the time when Fang You carried the Liangqin to perform on stage, at that time, all the people who watched the performance and listened to the sound of the Chinese guqin would be deeply shocked, which was something that Wang Lao and others from China were convinced of.

Before, they listened to the sound of the piano from the Internet, they were already very surprised, after Fang You played a song with the Liangqin at the scene of the Palace Museum, they were completely shocked, with the depth of the study of Chinese culture, they can better understand the meaning of this piano sound, as most people say, this piano sound is simply only in the sky, the world is rare to hear a few times the fairy sound.

Due to the limited space of the connoisseurship, it was impossible to move oversized statues like Venus and mummies stolen from the Egyptian pyramids, and basically both sides were holding small artifacts.

"This is the picture scroll of the female column painted by Gu Kaizhi, a famous artist in the Eastern Jin Dynasty of our country, the genuine product has disappeared, this is the picture scroll copied by the Song people, Gu Kaizhi is a famous painter in ancient China, the most famous Luo Shen Fu in the Palace Museum, is painted by him, this sub-female picture is to praise the wise virtues of ancient women, the picture is painted with twenty-eight people, a total of eight paragraphs, is based on the Chinese Han Dynasty ancient female biography of the characters in the story created, each paragraph is a story, there is a eulogy and the book has a name......."

Wang Lao smiled, first took out a picture scroll, put it on the long table in the middle, for the people on both sides to see, and in plain language, told the people in the Louvre about the meaning of this picture scroll.

Looking at this picture, Fang You smiled slightly, when he went to the Palace Museum for the first time to participate in the antique exchange meeting, he had already walked around the Palace Museum with Wang Lao, and some precious cultural relics were thoroughly seen.

Speaking of Gu Kaizhi, it is natural to be the most famous for the Luo Shen Futu, which is a cultural relic that the country prohibits from leaving the country for exhibition, but the Luo Shen Fu and this female picture are all copies of the Song Dynasty, and the original works have long been left behind.

Some researchers of Chinese cultural relics in the Louvre suddenly took out a magnifying glass to look at it carefully, and the Chinese paintings are very wonderful, and they often contain a lot of mystery and meaning.

Later, the Louvre first produced a fine painting for the purpose of communication, which is Leonardo da Vinci's Madonna of the Rock, created in the 16th century.

Speaking of Leonardo da Vinci, most people in the world know that Leonardo da Vinci was not French, but Italian, and was one of the three masters of the Italian Renaissance and the most perfect representative of the entire European Renaissance.

He was not only a painter, but also a mathematician, a celestial, an allegorist, and an inventor...... and so on, it can be said that he is a glorious person with countless abilities in one.

The pinnacle of his paintings is the Mona Lisa, but this Madonna of the Iwajia is also one of the most outstanding paintings he painted in his lifetime.

However, most people know Leonardo da Vinci because of the book The Da Vinci Code, which broke the sales record of Tie Lijian and became the highest-grossing book in history.

There are a lot of cultural relics in the Louvre, and most of them are treasures, but a large part of these cultural relics will not be exhibited often, many people want to see all the collections of the entire Louvre, it is simply impossible, like Wang Lao They came to exchange the Chinese cultural relics circle, the Louvre cultural relics seen are only four or five out of ten, Rao is so, it is already very shocking.

Next, Wang Lao took out a few paintings again, most of which are masterpieces of other countries, not cultural relics of France, and in the end, these Louvre exchange personnel actually took out Chinese calligraphy and painting works to communicate with their people from China. (To be continued.) )
