Chapter 146: Zhenhan Auction House

Zhang Hao, who was angry, immediately wanted to find someone to clean up the auction house that had pitted him.

But Lin Cheng stopped him.

"Don't be so excited, it's not a way to go directly to the door, first of all, you don't have evidence, and secondly, if you do it, they will call the police."

The auction house dares to play like this, which in itself is something to rely on.

Moreover, there are some disclaimers in the auction contract of any auction house.

This includes the question of authenticity.

No matter how big an auction house is, they can't guarantee that the items they auction will be genuine.

Therefore, this loophole has made many small auction houses unscrupulous to auction fakes, and some people who don't know how to be deceived.

"So what do you say? I can't just watch myself suffer. ”

Song Bo and Wang Ruyan shook their heads again and again.

Normally, this is a foregone conclusion.

Whether it is an auction or an antique circle, you can only consider yourself unlucky if you buy a fake.

It is very difficult to defend rights through legitimate means.

"Or I'll report it and sue them for fraud."

Zhang Hao also calmed down at the moment.

He knew that if he found someone to knock on the door, not only would he not get the money back, but he would probably get into trouble.

And defending his rights through formal channels has become his best choice.

"It's okay to report the crime, but the main problem is how to collect valid evidence to prove that they are committing fraud."

"Isn't it evidence that you determined that this thing was fake?"

"It's simple, not to mention that my appraisal results have no legal effect, even if the court recognizes the appraisal results, it can't prove that they are cheating."

Zhang Hao was so anxious that he scratched his head.

He really didn't have much experience in this area, but he didn't have it, and he couldn't swallow it.

"Then tell me what you can do, we are all good brothers, you won't watch me suffer."

Lin Cheng squinted his eyes and pondered.

He wondered if the auction house that let Zhang Hao be deceived had anything to do with the underground auction.

In my memory, Brother Lei, the person in charge of the underground auction, has the identities of several small auction house owners in the identity on the surface.

"Which auction house did you buy this painting from?"

"It's a real Han auction house."

"Real man?"

Lin Cheng recalled it in his mind, and finally a smile appeared on his face.

Among the identities of that Brother Lei, there is the identity of the chairman of Zhenhan Auction House.

Maybe you can take this opportunity to find Brother Lei to explore his reality.

"That's right, it's Zhenhan Auction House, I still have a transaction contract here."

Zhang Hao rummaged around and found the contract for trading with the auction house.

Lin Cheng took the contract and looked at it carefully.

"I have a way, we can go to the auction house and talk to their boss first to see if this matter can be discussed."

"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow, let's go find these turtle grandchildren together."

Then Lin Cheng took a general look at his collections.

Of the thousands of items in the collection, there are less than 100 genuine gadgets.

And those real things are basically very ordinary antiques, and the value is not high.

It can be said that Zhang Hao has been playing a collection in the past few years.

It can be said that the mother who is losing will not be recognized.

Listening to Lin Cheng's appraisal results, Zhang Hao sighed vigorously.

"I didn't expect the water to be so deep in here, I thought I was a genius in the collecting world, but in the end I found out that I was a fool."

"Engage in collections, make people like me, I'm afraid there are not many at all."

Lin Cheng smiled and shook his head.

Engaging in collections, like Zhang Hao, can be said to abound.

There are quite a few people who are even worse than him.

A few years ago, the chairman of a certain company was particularly fond of collecting, collected tens of thousands of antiques, and opened a museum.

But those who know how to go to the museum almost die of laughter on the spot.

The entire collection in the museum is fake, and not even a single real thing has been seen.

After this incident spread, it also became a big joke in the antique circle.

"You also compile a list of antique dealers who have traded, pay the amount, and preferably the transfer voucher at that time can also be sorted out."

"Why, those antique dealers can get back the money they paid for my fakes?!"

"I can only say that I will prepare first and see if there is a chance to come back."

"Cheng, I will listen to you."

"Then you can get busy tidying up first, and we'll go back."

Lin Cheng said goodbye to Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao kept sending them out of the villa, and when the car they were driving couldn't even see the taillights, he turned around and went back to the villa.

In the car, Wang Ruyan looked at Lin Cheng with some uneasiness.

"How can you take this off? Whether it is those antique dealers or auction houses, they are not easy to offend. ”

Wang Ruyan has been exposed to it at home since she was a child, and she is very clear about many dirty things in this industry.

She felt that if Lin Cheng intervened to help Zhang Hao, she might get into trouble.

"Then you can't help him, you see how badly he was deceived, and what is reflected from him is the chaos of the antique circle."

"If we continue to let the antique circle continue to be chaotic like this, the antique collection market will be completely destroyed by them in the future."

Lin Cheng's words are not alarmist.

If there are more and more fakes, and all antique dealers are selling fakes, it will eventually lead to the collapse of the credibility of antique collections.

Now the hot mass collection will gradually cool down.

In the end, no one wants to collect it anymore.

At that point, the antique scene will be over.

Even now, we can see some clues, many people who used to be keen on collecting, after suffering a loss, do not mention collecting.

"This is a matter of the general environment, and none of us can change it."

"If you don't try to change, how can you know if you can change? I'm going to be the one who tries to change. ”

Wang Ruyan was silent.

She didn't know if Lin Cheng was right or wrong to do this.

But she admired Lin Cheng's courage very much.

Those who dare to turn the tide are the real heroes.

"I support you, but you must pay attention to your own safety, if those people are forced to rush, they will really jump off the wall."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely pay attention to safety."

Soon returned home, Lin Cheng looked up the information of Zhenhan Auction House on the Internet.

The first few lines of the search are all advertisements for the recharge of Zhenhan Auction House, and there are some forum posts below, all of which are accusations against Zhenhan Auction House.

Among the complainants are auctioneers and bidders.

It can be seen that this real Han auction house eats at both ends.

One side fools the bidder to auction the fake goods at a high price, and the other side cheats the auction with various auction fees, appraisal fees, storage fees, etc.

In short, the means are very bad, and they will do everything to cheat money.

Lin sent private messages to those who posted one by one, asking for their contact information.
