"This batch of Xia Dynasty artifacts you own is of great significance to China, this is China's national treasure, and I hope that all Chinese people hope that this batch of Xia Dynasty artifacts will return to China." The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info," Dai Jiyi said.

Chen Dong took a sip of water, considered his tone in his heart and said, "I am a Chinese, I have lived in China since I was a child, and I understand these things very well.

No nation in the world, nor the descendants of that nation, can forget history.

Forgetting history is tantamount to losing the wisdom of this nation, losing the cultural heritage of this nation, and finally, even the character of this nation has been lost.

The reason why the Chinese can become the most brilliant nation in the world is that the Chinese have never forgotten history and never abandoned their own culture from ancient times to the present.

As the heritage of Chinese culture and the precious wealth of the nation, our cultural relics are well kept in the museum, the books left by the ancients have been well preserved, and the Chinese monuments have been carefully repaired and maintained.

As China's national treasure, China's cultural heritage, and a forgotten witness of distant history, I promise you that these Xia Dynasty artifacts can be returned to China. ”

"Great."

Hearing this, Dai Jitao, the officials of the Ministry of Culture, the Cultural Relics Bureau, and the experts and scholars around Dai Jitao were all excited, and everyone looked at each other and could see each other's excited expressions and eyes.

You know, this batch of Xia Dynasty artifacts in Chen Dong's hands touched the hearts of all Chinese on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

In China, this batch of Xia Dynasty cultural relics has received great attention from the top of the country and the general public, and they are burdened with heavy burdens and the trust of all Chinese, and when they heard that the Metropolitan Museum of New York wants to acquire all the Xia Dynasty artifacts in Chen Dong's hands, their pressure is even greater, and their hearts are more urgent.

Now, hearing Chen Dong's promise to let this batch of Xia Dynasty artifacts return to China, everyone is relieved, the pressure in their hearts is suddenly drifting lightly, everyone's excited expressions, eyes revealed on their faces, eyes.

This time, everyone was really relaxed, and it was easy to talk about when they met a Chinese who had a deep affection for China. If this batch of Xia Dynasty artifacts is in the hands of a foreigner, it will be very troublesome.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Chen." Dai Jiyi said.

......

Chen Dong continued to talk with Tao Jiyi and the staff of the working group about the return of these Xia Dynasty artifacts to China.

There are four ways to return cultural relics, first, recovery through legal means, second, diplomatic negotiations, third, commercial buyback or auction repatriation, and fourth, donation.

The first and second ways are basically impossible.

Chen Dong thought about it in his head for a while, and said to Tao Jiyi, "2/3 of this batch of Xia Dynasty artifacts will be repurchased commercially at the actual appraised value, and 1/3 of the part will be donated to the Palace Museum." ”

"Yes." Dai Jiyi said.

You know, as early as more than a week ago, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York wanted to buy all the Xia Dynasty artifacts in Chen Dong's hands, and the purchase price basically exceeded the actual appraisal valuation by 10% to 20%, and Chen Dong only let the Chinese commercial repurchase with the actual appraisal valuation, which is one, and two, 1/3 of the part will be donated to the Palace Museum by donation.

In fact, after two days of talks, including Vice Minister Dai Jiyi, experts and scholars, and all the staff of the working group, they could all feel that Chen Dong not only has an extremely deep understanding of Chinese culture, but also has a very deep heart for China and the nation, and Chen Dong's character, Confucianism, moderation, restraint, knowledge, and indifference, is the character of the Chinese, which is the character of the Han nation.

I feel that Chen Dong is an elite of Chinese culture and education.
