Chapter 177: Special Apprentice
Although Michel was very disappointed in his heart, since he came, he couldn't end it hastily, so he simply told the fat man about Titian? After learning that the "father of Western oil painting" lived in the late Renaissance, Brother Vercellio made an assertion: this painting is definitely not Titian's, because it is less than 200 years old. △ Top Novel,www.
"Nonsense, this wooden frame has been identified, and it is definitely Renaissance!" The appraiser began to fight with Brother Badou again, because this was also done by the appraisal agency he worked for.
The fat man said twice: "If you wrap your body in linen cloth for 3,000 years, can you become a mummy?" ”
"Evidence, please present the evidence!" The appraiser has not been mad and knows the truth of speaking with facts. More than 100 years ago, I don't believe you can still find the letters s and b in it!
At this time, Henry, who had been in a state of confusion, suddenly went berserk, he raised his arms high, and then banged on the table with all his might, and roared hoarsely: "Who is imitating my Venus, my Titian, who is it, who is it-"
These two are not going to act together—including Roland and Michelle, have this suspicion in their hearts.
However, Brother Badou knew that in a state of madness like Henry's now, it was impossible to pay attention to what they were talking about just now. If he had been given a knife and told him that the author of the fake was the appraiser in front of him, Henry would have cut off the man's ear without hesitation!
Proof? Brother Badou really knew, but it belonged to the category that could not be said, so he smacked his lips: "Since this painting can be fake and real, then the imitation author must also be a master." Even artistic achievements are not inferior to that Titian. There shouldn't be many people like that! ”
"Angel. Definitely Angell! Monsieur Henry suddenly became mad from one madness to another, "I knew that the human body could be depicted so perfectly, except for Titian, it was Ingres!" ”
Let's act together - the appraiser is now completely convinced that the two were premeditated.
On the contrary, Michel fell into deep thought: Ingres was a prominent figure of neoclassicism, and he did imitate many of Titian's works at that time. It is not difficult to identify Ingres's work, and if that were the case, the painting would not have lost money. If you hype it well, it will be more valuable if you don't do it!
Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on Michelle's face: "Dear Gao, please continue-"
But the old collector could no longer laugh at the next few paintings, and both the Cézanne and Gauguin works were unceremoniously picked out by the fat man from the two letters that he hated so much.
This kind of miraculous expression also made the appraiser a little dumbfounded, but he still insisted that the fat man had misjudged Titian's work, so as to protect his face. But does Brother Badou care about this?
The identification took much shorter than expected, and the results were mixed for Mitchell. The balding little old man sat in a chair with one hand on his cheek, not knowing what he was thinking. But Mr. Henry, who was a little nervous, picked up the drawing board that never left him, and began to sketch the thinking old man. It seems that after this guy made a breakthrough, inspiration flowed like a spring.
However, Mr. Michelle's expression is indeed very entangled now, and Brother Badou guesses that this little old man may be thinking about how to reduce his losses, or maybe he is still thinking about how much hush money is appropriate for him, right?
It turns out that Brother Badou is completely a villain, and when Mitchell comes to his senses, the first thing he does is to ask his assistant to call his lawyer and contact the media in his country to report on these fake paintings; However, he also showed his cunning side, especially to vigorously promote Ingres's copy of Titian's work, and make up for his losses as much as possible.
This also called the fat man to find a feeling of gathering like like from the little old man, and if the fat man was asked to deal with this matter, it would probably be the same way. As a result, the impression of Michelle suddenly improved a little.
The only thing that was a little stupid was the appraiser, who had listened to Michelle's phone call and apparently identified the Venus as Ingres's work. In fact, he also thinks the same way in his heart, but he can't turn it around in his thoughts: he has studied oil painting for most of his life, but he is not willing to ask a hairy boy from a foreign country to be compared?
After the arrangements were made, Michelle stood up and shook hands with Brother Badou very forcefully: "Gao, thank you for your help, I sincerely invite you, if you have time, you must come to my place as a guest." ”
After he finished speaking, the assistant handed the fat man a check. Seeing the above figures, the appraiser was very hot-eyed: 100,000 euros!
Brother Badou waved his hand and did not take the check: "Raise your hand, if Mr. Michelle really feels that he can't go, just wait for my movie to be released in France." ”
The little old man was stunned for a moment, and then let out a hearty laugh, "Gao, you are a real friend." Some of my collection is also made from the Orient, and I hope it will be helpful to you in your collecting career. From the newspaper, Michelle also learned that the little fat man was going to build a private museum, so it would be a peer in the future, and it was necessary to communicate with each other.
The fat man waited for this sentence, he learned from the master that many precious cultural relics were lost overseas, which was a pain that every descendant of Yan and Huang could never erase from the bottom of his heart, so the fat man had already secretly made up his mind: to do his best, but to heal the wound. Maybe his strength alone is limited, but as long as he works hard, he will not leave regrets.
So the two sides ended the meeting in a cordial and friendly atmosphere, and after learning that the fat man is still an investor in a movie, and that the movie "Where the Little Wolf Goes" is about to be released in France, Michelle said that he would definitely bring his family and friends to watch it.
After the separation, Brother Badou still followed Henry back to his studio. Halfway through, Henry also asked the fat man why he didn't accept the 100,000 euro appraisal fee. I regretted that Brother Badou almost swollen his thigh: "I thought it was 100,000 yuan——"
The next day, I received a call from the auction house, and Badou went to collect the money happily. Excluding commissions, the fat man is once again full of money. And the money is earned with peace of mind. Hold one's head high.
The only thing that made him a little unhappy was. I don't know what kind of ** soup Director Teng from above poured into the golden eye carving, and "borrowed" the two treasures he stored in the Jinling Museum, as for whether it will be like Liu Bei borrowing Jingzhou, the fat man is unknown.
However, Brother Badou absolutely believes in his master, and looking at the smiling appearance of the golden-eyed eagle, he must not have suffered a loss, so it is difficult to complete the exchange of interests behind his back.
The matter in Jinling ended successfully, and those old friends of Jinyandiao specially set up a parting dinner. The fat man toasted one by one, but he was a little dizzy, and vaguely seemed to hear the old goat say that he would lead his apprentice to Zhongzhou to visit in a few months, and participate in some treasure appreciation conference, etc., and he didn't pay much attention to it in a daze.
When I got on the plane the next day, there was another tail, of course, the blue-eyed Henry. After hearing that there was a "manor" over there in Yato, this guy decided to go over and live for a while, devote himself to painting, and brew a blockbuster.
However, Brother Badou was skeptical about this: I still paid for the plane ticket to help buy it. This guy must not be able to get along here, so he went to eat and drink over there. My forest park doesn't have idlers. It's better to ask this guy to paint a portrait of every old man and old lady in the nursing home, and treat it as food money-
Back in Zhongzhou, the time was already the end of August, although it had only been more than ten days out, but Brother Badou felt a little like a year, standing at the door of the nursing home, shouting: "I'm back-"
Whoosh, a large group of monkeys jumped out of the wall, surrounded the fat man, only to see that the monkeys were nowhere to be seen, so frightened that Henry took a few steps back and sat on the ground: Is this to Huaguo Mountain? Finally, this guy didn't stay in China for a while, and he still knew about Huaguoshan.
Because of the hurry to come back, Brother Badou didn't buy anything, which also made the monkeys very disappointed, and they thought they could eat and drink. But looking at the big bags behind Henry, there must be goods. So they gave up the fat man, and all of them besieged Henry.
Don't look at Henry's long hair fluttering, tall and big, but he can't stand the monkey's multitude, so frightened that he raised his hands high and didn't dare to move, for fear of being scratched by the monkey.
The monkeys didn't know what politeness was, and they got all kinds of paintbrushes, shovels, and bottles and cans from Henry's salute, but there was nothing to eat, and they were so angry that they pointed at Henry and squeaked, probably scolding him for being a poor ghost.
An old monkey also mistook a tube of oil paint material for a snack, and after unscrewing it, it smelled not smelling, so he squeezed it hard, and sneered and shot all at the artist, so Henry looked more artistic. Only the monkey Xiaoshuai is more well-behaved, and his little paws keep pulling the brushes on the ground. However, looking at its sleek eyes, it is estimated that Monkey Xiaoshuai's private collection will definitely be richer.
The fat man didn't stop him, he was giggling and watching the excitement, he hoped that Henry could be integrated into the collective.
After a while, the old men and old ladies in the nursing home all walked out, as if they hadn't seen the fat man, surrounded the old man Diao to ask for warmth, and asked the old man to talk about the terracotta figurines and the national treasures inside.
It seems that I am the main master, you must have done it on purpose - Brother Badou, who was left aside, was not depressed. Fortunately, at this time, sorghum, millet and beans rushed out, shouting "Daddy", "Daddy" and "Daddy". With Doudou on his shoulders and sorghum millet in his arms, Brother Badou walked into the nursing home happily. Henry was stunned: Doesn't this country practice family planning?
After going around the house and condolences to these elders in the nursing home, Brother Badou learned that they had bet that the fat man would get rich this time and would definitely bring them back a lot of gifts, but as a result, the fat man confirmed with his own practical actions that Gao Xiaolu's title was worthy of his name, and the old men and old ladies were angry with him.
It's really a bunch of old kids - it makes the fat man cry and laugh, but it's precisely because he doesn't treat him as an outsider that that's why it's like this. So he announced in public that he would improve the food and invite a big meal at noon tomorrow, and everyone was happy.
And after the initial catastrophe, Henry immediately fell in love with this beautiful place, and when he had nothing to do, he set up a canvas by the forest stream and began his artistic creation.
On his left and right, there is also a small painting clip, and on one side sits Doudou, holding a pencil to practice sketching, and his little face is meticulous and very engaged.
Ever since he saw Uncle Henry draw, Doudou has also been fascinated; And according to Henry, Doudou is also very talented in painting. So, Brother Badou began to think about calling Doudou apprentice in his heart.
The other one was not very steady, looking around, scratching his ears and cheeks, and occasionally holding a pencil to his ear. Seeing this scene, Brother Badou also smiled and said hello to Henry: "Accept a monkey apprentice, you must create a precedent in the art world——" (To be continued......) I527
