Chapter 27 Stepping on the National Museum of the Netherlands II
"Looks like I'm not the only one who came up with the idea of this painting!"
The corners of Lin Qing's mouth raised slightly, he didn't think that this was an ordinary tourist who wanted to secretly take pictures of the night patrol, (Some cultural relics, especially ancient lacquerware, calligraphy and painting, textiles, painted pottery, etc., will fade under strong light, so you can't use flash to take pictures.) In order to protect the cultural relics in the exhibition hall, the lights will not be very bright, which will make the camera used by most people use flash in automatic mode to cause damage to the cultural relics, and some of the exhibits are mainly modern art/design exhibits and exchange exhibits borrowed from other museums, which have copyright issues and are not allowed to take pictures. )
If it is an ordinary tourist who uses a mobile phone or camera to take a candid photo, with this professional equipment, it is really a waste to come to take a candid photo, a set of video equipment that can be brought into the museum by avoiding scanning equipment, the minimum on the market is tens of thousands of dollars, Lin Qing doesn't think that local tyrant will do this!
I have a general understanding of the architectural structure of the entire museum, the most important thing is that after putting a miniature video device in the hidden corner of the night patrol exhibition area, Lin Qing left the exhibition hall of the night patrol with everyone and went to other exhibition halls to hang out.
There are many precious Chinese cultural relics in the Dutch museum, mainly paintings and ceramics, and Lin Qing also found an ancient jade, which was quietly placed in the exhibition area of the exhibition hall not far from the night watch.
A piece of pure white mutton fat jade, exuding a soft light, Lin Qing was attracted as soon as he walked in front of him.
"What is this?"
The tour guide smiled: "I don't know about this, it is said that it is the Peiyu of a certain court minister in the Han Dynasty of China, it is a piece of natural mutton fat jade carving, the ancient jade is very exquisite, the carving is also very perfect, there is a dragon shape faintly visible, experts speculate that this should be a piece of royal accessories of the Han Dynasty!" ”
Lin Qing nodded, I don't know if I want to take away the Night Watch tonight, and even this ancient jade will be taken away.
Next to Gu Yu was a leather painting that Lin Qing couldn't understand, and the painting was very rough. Several human-like and non-human images jumped on the skin, Lin Qing looked at this painting, and vaguely seemed to remember something in his mind, but he couldn't grasp the point.
"This leather painting is a relic of ancient India, the painting depicts the scene of King Travangar receiving the reception of Lord Shiva, this painting is painted on human skin, and this human skin is one of the sons of King Travangol (I haven't found the Travangol dynasty for a long time, so I can only make it up myself!). )”
Lin Qing frowned, thinking carefully about the information about King Travangol, which he felt very familiar. But I don't know what this is, I secretly wrote down this thing in my heart, and went back to check, there must be something wrong with this thing, otherwise I wouldn't have such a strong premonition.
The rest of the cultural relics Lin Qing didn't find much of interest, Lin Qing was more interested in "Night Watch", all because of a legend about "Night Watch".
It is said that the character in the painting, Lieutenant Kirk, intercepted a large amount of treasure during a battle, and he hid it somewhere in order to leave clues for his descendants. He asked Rembrandt to paint the picture.
Although Lin Qing didn't believe much in this rumor, what if it existed? This will be a huge wealth again, and now Lin Qing is a serious debtor, with huge debts on his back. He and the arms orders of the Netherlands and China are all time-bound!
At the end of the visit, the whole Dutch museum took about three hours, most of the time was spent in the flowers, only when I saw some Chinese artworks will stop to watch, Yang Dad has been every time he sees a pair of Chinese national treasures are placed in the booth sigh deeply.
Lin Qing also understands this feeling. The things of my own country, but now don't show them as national treasures of other countries, it really makes Ran feel very uncomfortable!
Although Lin Qing has the ability to loot these Chinese cultural relics. But the cost is too great, if you steal one or two items, this can only be regarded as a dereliction of duty on the part of the museum, but if a batch of cultural relics are stolen, it is not simply a matter of cultural relics being stolen.
Before the ransacking of the Van Gogh Museum, the official released a video of Lin Qing's theft, about thirty seconds in the middle, more than 30 pieces of cultural relics were stolen, and some netizens with relatively large brains thought of tools such as space rings that can help items fall into other dimensions, after all, it is completely unreasonable for a person to steal more than 30 paintings in such a short time, and some people think that aliens did it, and some people think that it is a messenger sent by God.
Don't underestimate the analytical ability of any intelligence organization, the human brain hole in a society with a very developed network is also constantly improving with the times, and the protagonist in various novels has nothing to do with a wave of his hand, if it is seen by netizens, it will definitely be associated with items such as space rings, and if a certain ******** believes it, then what awaits Lin Qing is a laboratory called Area 51.
Walking out of the museum, it was only four o'clock, the sky had begun to darken, as a high-latitude country, the sun was still hanging slowly in the sky, and there was no intention of setting.
"Shall we go shopping?" baby looked at the time and made a suggestion, for girls, shopping is always the most favorite thing, and no girl will refuse the temptation to go shopping.
"Okay, uncle and aunt, it just so happens that tomorrow is New Year's Day, and it is also the New Year of the Netherlands, let's buy something and go back to decorate it, it's a bit of a festive atmosphere!"
"Alright then, let's go!"
Today is December 31, 2006, which is the last day of 2006 in the West, and many roadside shops have closed, but large shopping malls are still open, and people come and go, in and out, carrying all kinds of New Year's goods.
The most important holiday in the West is Christmas, but the last day of the Gregorian calendar, the New Year, is also very important in the West, passing through the central square of Amsterdam, there are already a lot of people gathered around, the Christmas tree on the Christmas tree has not yet been upgraded and disassembled, the huge stars are still hanging on the top of the Christmas tree, a huge electronic screen is constantly counting down, counting down second by second, to welcome the arrival of the new year.
"Xiaolin, what are they doing here? Why are there so many people here? ”
"Auntie, this is an event organized by the Dutch youth, and there will be a large number of newlyweds gathered here tonight, and when the New Year's bell rings, they will kiss each other and celebrate the arrival of the new year together, which is quite an interesting event!"
"Oh, it's all an activity for a little couple, it's interesting, why don't you come over with Xiaoying at night? No need to accompany the two of us! ”
"Auntie, no need, some of the couples who come here at night, and some of them don't know each other, as long as there are people around, whether they are men or women, they will pull the people around them to kiss together on the day of the New Year!"
"Then forget it, I always thought that Hong Kong was relatively open, but compared with these foreigners, it can't be compared at all, you better stay at home tonight!"
"Well, why don't I hold an event on the lawn at home in the evening, and then invite some Chinese people in the Netherlands to celebrate the festival together? There are more people, what do you think, uncles and aunts? In this way, the family should also be a little popular! Lin Qing thought about it, and immediately had a good plan in his mind.
"Okay, we'll listen to you!"
Taking out his mobile phone, Lin Qing dialed Xue Hanqin's phone, she is the Dutch ambassador to China, she should know a lot of local Chinese, organizing a Chinese gathering at this time is still very helpful to promote unity and mutual assistance among local Chinese in the Netherlands, she should agree to help.
"Mr. Earl, why do you have time to call me, oh yes, I heard from Military Attache Qian that your business has been negotiated, thank you, Mr. Earl!"
The phone was quickly connected, and Xue Hanqin's unique strong woman voice came out of the microphone, and she should be in a good mood to listen to her.
"There is nothing to thank for this, although my nationality is not Chinese, but I still help myself as a Chinese, by the way, Ambassador Xue, I am looking for you this time and hope that you can do me a favor."
"What's wrong? I'll see if I can help you, Mr. Earl! "Half of the words are spoken, and half of the promises are promised to things, and the art of speaking is fully displayed, and the words are not full because of the joy.
"I want to hold a party tonight, the venue is at my house, you can see if you can contact some local Chinese to celebrate the holiday with me, my girlfriend's parents are here, I am afraid that the two old people will be a little lonely."
Xue Hanqin was silent for a while: "No problem, it just so happens that there is a party at the Dutch Chinese Chamber of Commerce tonight, how about I ask him to help the meeting place where you are?" But there will be some reporters coming, so there should be no problem, right? ”
"Don't worry, there is no problem, you can send me a copy of the help list, and I will arrange it immediately."
"Okay, no problem, I'll let you know!"
Lin Qing hung up the phone, his whole heart was already happy, and he was still worried about how to help his attention be diverted from his body, and it would be easier to have a reporter present.
"Housekeeper, you inform the family, clean up, the Dutch Chinese Chamber of Commerce will meet at home tonight, let's get some self-help in the evening, you go to the hotel to order more things Chef, don't care about the price, I don't know the number of people, I think the number of people present should not be too small, and it should be right to prepare more."
"Okay, sir, I'll arrange it!"
There were a lot of people in the mall, but because he was in a hurry to go back home, Lin Qing directly turned on the sweeping mode, as long as he liked something that he felt needed, all of them were packed and taken away.
For more than an hour, Lin Qing bought all the things he needed, leaving Sanshui to pay the bill in the back, and everyone drove home directly, ready to greet the guests.
