Chapter 462: Talking about a big business

"Haha, get rich!!"

As soon as he entered the hotel room, Han Chong quickly closed the door, hugged Bi Yue by the waist, and kissed Bi Yue's red lips excitedly.

"Husband, what's wrong with you...... Hmm, tell me, what the hell is so exciting? ”

Bi Yue was a little out of breath by Han Chong's kiss, and finally pushed Han Chong away, and asked a little inexplicably, didn't you just buy a few sketches and a bronze mirror? As for being so happy?

"Then you calm down first and make sure you won't be frightened by my words?"

"No, hurry up, what's going on?" Bi Yue is looking forward to it even more.

Han Chong put Bi Yue down, and then said, "Hehe, today we also came to a foreign country to be a robber!" ”

"You are happy, as if the drawing was Van Gogh?"

Bi Yue glanced at Han Chong and disagreed.

"Haha, Van Gogh didn't, but he did have Picasso's ......"

Han Chong said as he picked up the canvas bag that had just been thrown on the ground.

Bi Yue really didn't feel anything at first, but after seeing Han Chong go to bed with a canvas bag, she couldn't help but be curious in her heart and slowly approached.

Han Chong walked to the sofa with the bag and placed the thick stack of sketches on the glass coffee table in front of the sofa.

"This one is Picasso's, this one is not ......"

Han Chong took out a pair of white gloves for identifying cultural relics from his suitcase, and began to sort out Picasso's sketches, for him, this job is extremely simple, just need to distinguish whether there is an aura in it.

"Phew, did you see clearly, rascal."

Suddenly. Bi Yue, who was sitting next to Han Chong, saw a sketch and took a sip, listening to Han Chong was inexplicable, turned his face to look at the painting in his hand, and couldn't help laughing.

"Bi Yue, you have also spent time abroad. Even this one resists? ”

Han Chong joked while laughing that Bi Yuelai, this sketch is a full * nude portrait of a woman, the plump rufang, the slender waist, and the mysterious dark triangle are all presented on the painting by the author, and even the facial expressions are clearly visible.

"It's not resistance, but Picasso is a big scoundrel, you can't learn from him......"

Bi Yue spent several years in London and Paris. How can you not know Picasso himself? She knew even more than Han Chong.

Picasso was famous for painting women.

"Honey, this is art, don't you let me see this? Okay, then I'll put this one away......"

Seeing Bi Yue's resolute attitude, Han Chong dispelled the idea of comparing the differences between Chinese and foreign women.

The reason why Bi Yue has a deep grudge against Picasso is because for Picasso, women are nothing more than the victims of his artistic altar and the source of his artistic creation. This is unacceptable to Bi Yue.

There is no doubt that Picasso was a true genius. The 20th century is the century of Picasso, who came from Spain to Paris, then the art capital of the world, at the beginning of this changeable century, to begin his life's journey of discovering brilliant art.

In the 20th century, no artist was as versatile as Picasso. Picasso's fame. Not only because of his early fame and masterpieces such as "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon" and "Guernica", but also because of his abundant creativity and colorful life, Picasso left behind a large number of multifaceted works of art, which are unmatched by others.

Picasso has completed about 60,000 to 80,000 works, in addition to paintings and drawings. It also includes sculptures, pottery, prints, stage costumes and other modeling expressions.

After Picasso's death in 1973, the world's major museums continued to launch retrospectives about him in a variety of different ways, and the topic of Picasso was constant, often with new arguments, as if he were still alive.

But Picasso was a man who always caused controversy, except for his extraordinary talent that made people fall in love and impress. He painted many paintings for his wives, lovers, and children, but his relatives had mixed reviews of the gifted painter.

Picasso, who died in 1973 at the age of 92, was the first to be befriended by people who rushed to befriend, and a quarter of a century after his death, the world is still arguing over his story and fame.

Picasso's achievements in painting were the pinnacle, but his family affairs were a mess.

His tragic story is well known, Picasso's widow Jacqueline committed suicide, as did one of his lovers, Marie, who gave birth to his daughter Maya, and his grandson Pabrido who also committed suicide after Jacqueline kicked him out of his grandfather's funeral.

It can be seen what this family is like.

And Pabrido's sister Marina wrote some memoirs a few years ago revealing her miserable teenage years and blaming Picasso for everything.

Frances was the only woman in Picasso's life to abandon him, and she left Picasso in 1953 with her children.

Later, she collaborated with an art critic on My Life with Picasso, a book that was both bold and detailed, covering almost everything, even the artist's sexual adventures, which caused an uproar and in retaliation, Picasso refused to see her children.

Women are all emotional, and Bi Yue has read a book similar to a biography, so from a woman's point of view, she is extremely disgusted by Picasso's character of seeing one and loving another. He treats women as playthings, which in itself is unfair to women, and his so-called creation is not at the expense of these women.

"By the way, Han Chong, how can you be sure that these paintings are Picasso's?"

Bi Yue suddenly remembered this question, it seems that Han Chong's appraisal time was not very long, to say that Han Chong is proficient in Chinese antiques, Bi Yue believes, but Han Chong is also so familiar with foreign artworks, it makes Bi Yue a little shocked.

"What's this, you think that old Kane can paint something like this?"

Han Chong shook his head with a smile, picked out a few old Kane's works and Picasso's works and put them together, and then took out two paintings with Picasso's autograph.

"Han Chong. You're so lucky, aren't you? ”

Looking at the more than thirty black and white sketches on the table, Bi Yue really couldn't find any words to describe Han Chong's magic, she followed the whole process of the incident, I'm afraid no one would have thought that it was a small shopkeeper's home. There will be an authentic Picasso left.

In these years, not to mention Bi Yue, who has studied and worked in Britain and France, is a small number of ordinary people in China, and it is estimated that they have also heard of Picasso's name, after all, the 4 oil paintings with a total value of billions of rmB or more are too shocking.

"Bi Yue, how much do you think these sketches are worth?"

Han Chong divided the sketches on the coffee table into categories, which can be divided into three types, one is character sketches. There are six paintings in total, all of them are young women with no clothes on, and they are all beautifully painted.

Han Chong couldn't figure it out, why did Picasso give his woman's sketch portrait to old Kane? Could it be that even a woman can share a good relationship between the two? However, Han Chong can't verify this point, maybe it was stolen by old Kane.

The second type of sketch is children, and Han Chong knows that Picasso is a person who likes children very much. Therefore, many of his works are children frolicking in the streets and alleys. There are more sketches in this category, there are 18 of them, and a total of six boys are drawn.

There is also a category of drawings of still objects, from apples to vases, from room furniture to windows and doors, there are eight such works. Han Chong also counted, there were thirty-two pairs in total.

All the sketches are black and white, the colors are dark and layered, and Picasso uses extremely simple strokes to sketch out pictures that make people crazy.

It doesn't matter if it's those women who are naked and have a slightly shy face. Or those innocent, chasing and frolicking children, they all seem so realistic, as if they are about to jump out of the paper.

It's just that although Han Chong can identify the authenticity of these sketches, he doesn't have any understanding of the foreign art price market, and of course he is blind to the market value of these authentic Picasso works.

"Han Chong, I can't help you with this, but I heard last year that a seven-piece sketchbook by Picasso sold for eight million dollars, and you have thirty-two here, so it must be more expensive, right?"

Although jewelry and Picasso's paintings are both works of art, Bi Yue really doesn't know much about these, she has only seen some information about Picasso on the information of some auction houses.

"So?"

Han Chong carefully put the painting together, lowered his head and pondered, and after a while, Han Chong raised his head and said, "Let's go, let's go take a bath first, I'll make an appointment with Wen Wan when I go back, and let's have dinner together in the evening......"

Bi Yue nodded obediently, she knew that Han Chong must have paid attention to something in her heart, because in the morning, the two of them were supposed to have a candlelight dinner. It is inevitable that in a romantic city like Paris, it is normal for Han Chong to want to do something!

"What do you say, Picasso's paintings?!"

Han Chong obviously underestimated Picasso's influence abroad, and after he almost whispered to Wen Wan and said that he had more than 30 sketches of Picasso, Wen Wan almost shouted this sentence, which attracted everyone in the Western restaurant to look at him.

"I said, can you keep the point? Sister. ”

Han Chong glared at Wen Wan angrily, after contact in the past few days, it was obvious that the two of them were more familiar with each other.

Wen Wan's sentence, fortunately, is in Chinese, otherwise if the people here know that they have Picasso's paintings, maybe those international thieves will find their heads.

This kind of thing has not happened before, some foreign billionaires, in order to get their favorite artworks, often hire some international thieves to steal those precious artworks hidden in museums or private homes.

Of course, even if they get these works of art, they can only enjoy them in a small circle of their own, and they are kept extremely secret, otherwise, I am afraid that Interpol will immediately target them.

"Han Chong, I don't have a good heart, you said Picasso's painting, do you know what it means, I haven't encountered it for so long in Paris, why is your luck so good, why all the good things have come to you?"

Wen Wan indignantly cut off a piece of steak with a knife and fork, put it in her mouth and chewed it vigorously, as if this was the way to vent the depression in her heart.

"By the way, can you be sure that all of those sketches are real?"

Wen Wan suddenly thought of this question after swallowing the steak with Han Chong as her imaginary enemy, he thought the same as Bi Yue, Han Chong may be very proficient in Chinese antiques, but compared to foreign artworks, they are two almost completely different fields.

Han Chong took a slow sip of red wine, nodded and said, "Why don't you believe me?" Let's put it this way, 90% of it should be true, Wen Wan girl, if you can't believe it, you can find someone to identify it......"

Wen Wan didn't understand what Han Chong meant, and opened her mouth to say, "What does it matter to me about the treasure you found?" What can I trust that I can't trust? ”

"Hey, I said gentle girl, aren't you familiar with people abroad? I'm like, you're going to bring the auction organizers tomorrow, and then you're going to bring the people from the Musée Guimet, and I'd like to talk to them about business......"

Han Chong glanced around and said what he thought, in fact, since he got this batch of sketches, Han Chong has been thinking about how to deal with these sketches.

Do you want to keep it for yourself? Han Chong really doesn't appreciate this foreign sketching style, and then again, if he faces those naked women sketches all day long, the backyard of his home will definitely not be stable.

If he doesn't want to keep it, he can only sell it, but Han Chong is not short of money, he doesn't want to simply sell these sketches, for some people, money can't measure the value of these sketches.

Although he does not know the market price of these paintings, Han Chong knows that Picasso and his status in the minds of foreign collectors are definitely in the spotlight, and if he releases a rumor that he wants to auction Picasso's sketches, I am afraid that collectors all over the world will be shocked.

Compared with Picasso's works, Chinese art, which has appreciated quite rapidly in recent years, seems to be nothing, and there is no comparison between the two in the minds of foreigners. As for foreigners, they naturally value the West more, the treasure of their own country.
