Chapter 873 Opening of the exchange meeting

Li Yi lowered his head and silently thought about what these people meant. The most likely one was that they all knew what he was going to do next, and they didn't think it was worth it.

But it would be fine if Wang Haoqing and Shang Yi and the others knew, but how could Huiming know? It hasn't been seen for more than a year. He really doesn't believe it if he is so magical!

But if he didn't mean this, what would it mean?

Could it be that Wang Haoqing and the others deliberately used the master's mouth to wake him up? This matter is not that dangerous, if it is done a few times occasionally, right?

However, since it has attracted the attention of both of them, there may not be no one else staring at him, so it is better to be as careful as possible.

After thinking about it, he felt relieved again. Now that his calligraphy and French paintings have just begun to be practiced, I don’t know how long it will take to distort the real one. However, the fact that Qu Hang imitates Zhiye Tao has not been communicated to anyone in his mind. Even if Qu Hang is very good, he will start imitating it from now on, research and deconstructing it, it will be a few years later.

At worst, I can just look at the wind and move again. What should I worry about? Could it be that Wang Haoqing knew that he was taking a snow boat and waiting for Yang’s imitation painting set, and the Japanese thought his plan had begun, so he tried every means to persuade him?

"Haha, it's okay, don't worry, I will be able to take the right track even if I have to do some things."

Back at Yanyuan, Li Yi thought about it repeatedly and gave Qu Hang a task to imitate Japanese Shino pottery in the name of 13, but he did not ask for a specific time or explain why, and he just said it was as soon as possible.

"The next step is the antique exchange meeting. After this matter is over, it should enter a stable period. Of course, the matter between Arnault and John Carru should be solved before. It would be best if the painting of Xuezhou and Yang can be taken, and it doesn't matter if it can't be taken."

Li Yi thought about it and said that there should be nothing big happening recently, and it is time to respond to the increasingly stormy attacks on the Internet and newspapers.

"Sister Mo, let's exchange the most powerful things on the Internet for communication. The others will be suppressed first. Anyway, since we have to continue to do it, there will be opportunities in the future."

The most powerful things that were attacked were basically ancient paintings taken out of the roof box, and Li Yi did not take out the remaining controversial works. Fortunately, they were not all taken out, otherwise it would be lively!

"After all, others don't have a spirit card, and there are only a few factors to judge the authenticity of a work. In the case of incomplete information, no matter how powerful the experts are, they will not dare to say that they will not be able to tell me. So, don't be too anxious and take your time. Now there are so many employees who are helping to collect information, find one and publish another one, but there is no shortage of exhibits."

His problem now is that there are not enough exhibits. After getting the treasure of 13, let alone a museum, he can open three of them of the same size, but he doesn’t have a duplicate!

Time flies, and a week has passed in a blink of an eye, and there are three days left to be the day of the exchange meeting. Just when Li Yi thought that the affairs of Arnault and John Carru were delayed until after the exchange meeting, the two came together.

"Haha, I heard that you don't give face to the British royal family. You rejected them twice, and didn't even meet again for the second time. What? Have they offended you?"

As soon as Arnault came up, he asked about the British ambassador's request for a meeting some time ago.

Li Yi shook his head, "Time is different, the situation has changed. To be honest, if you two only asked me for exchange now, my conditions will make you feel unacceptable."

"Oh? What happened in the middle?"

"I got a large donation of cultural relics, and now there is no place to put the large number of them."

"Oh my God! Lee, we are old friends, you can't add to the conditions you originally promised us!"

"What did I promise you? But forget it, just like you said, they are all old friends, I won't kill you too ruthlessly. Tell me, what have you prepared?"

"We two prepared one thing together. Not only did this thing return you, but you also had to ask us for another 20 million US dollars."

"Yeah, what kind of treasure is it that makes you two so confident?"

Arnault smiled and waved his hand. The bodyguard behind him carefully placed the box he had been holding onto the table.

"Don't be too surprised! There are only a few things in the world."

Li Yi raised his eyebrows, gently opened the box, then his eyes lit up, and asked without raising his head: "Is this Baron Philip's piece? How much did you spend when he actually took action?"

The porcelain bottle lying in the box was the blue glazed white dragon plum vase from the Yuan Dynasty collected by Baron Philip whom he contacted when he was contacted by Master Ma before when he exchanged the "Bronze Age"!

"No matter how much money we spend, you just say how much it should be worth!"

Li Yi smiled bitterly. The price of this kind of thing is the least likely to be priced, because once it is on sale, it is possible to sell anything at a sky-high price. Of course, there is also a high possibility that it will be taken back by the seller because it cannot reach his psychological price.

"The one in Yangzhou claimed that someone paid more than 4 billion yuan. This should be a gold blotting on his face. The price of this ancient porcelain should be between 500 million and 700 million yuan, which means it is worth 100 million US dollars!"

According to his own understanding, Li Yi gave a price that he thought was fair. This price may be a bit high, but it doesn't matter. He is not going to sell the two items in his hand at a low price.

"You have seen this plum vase before. Did Philip also offer you a price?"

Arnault's question proves that the price given by Li Yi should be similar to Philip. Of course, it is also possible that Arnault was deliberately speaking in accordance with his words.

"This thing is good. I can agree to you exchange those two things, but it is impossible to ask me to make up for you 20 million dollars."

Although foreigners have fewer business talks, they are not unavailable. Li Yi estimates that judging from the importance these two guys attach to those two things, it is estimated that the psychological bottom line is that he is subsidizing 10 million yuan.

However, he doesn't even want to make that ten million. These two are people with names on the global rich list. Do they care about that ten million?

"Then how much can you make up for?" Sure enough, the condition just now was just a price offer.

"No one to make up!"

"That's impossible!" Arnault exclaimed, and John Carru still said nothing.

The two of them got around and finally agreed on the terms. For one exchange, Li Yi would subsidize them another $5 million.

"Lee, you are really a Grandet. Next time I deal with you, I will be careful and never let you succeed again!"

When the business was completed, Arnault still looked indignant, but Li Yi knew that this guy was pretending, and the smile in his eyes was not concealed at all.

"Okay, you two world-class rich people have wasted so much talk with me for the sake of this five million. If you put this effort into other aspects, you probably earned 20 million yuan, right?"

"No, one code is the same. By the way, dear Li, we have another thing to come here this time. You should have the invitation letter for the exchange meeting, right? Give us two."

"Oh? The exhibited are all cultural relics from our China. What do you want to do for the invitation letter?"

"Can you be curious? Let me tell you the truth. We are ready to study the market value of precious cultural relics in China so that we can save you from being cheated by you in the future!"

"Oh my God! How much resentment should you have! Isn't it only 15 million? I won't make up for you!"

Three days passed in a flash, and Li Yi took the invitation list and yelled twice. The people who attacked him the most fiercely were all invited. It seems that the three major museums stood firmly behind him this time!

Of course, the premise of all this is based on the fact that there is no problem with his cultural relics, so it is really not easy to judge now, just tell me whether the other three companies really want to watch jokes or good shows.

"But being able to do this level, no matter what mentality it is, is a kind of expression of kindness. After all, if I really do it, it's understandable that they do it."

Soon, Li Yi's mentality calmed down, and he rushed to the scene of the exchange meeting, the Palace Museum, with Mo Jinxuan, Tan Moxuan and three other museum experts.

The venue for this exchange meeting was agreed upon several times, and finally decided to be hosted by the Forbidden City. When Li Yi and his friends arrived at the scene, nearly 500 experts invited to attend had already arrived first.

Of course, it was a lively thing when meeting acquaintances. Many of Li Yi's affairs were revealed because the museum was revealed, but he rarely appeared in front of people, so he was surrounded by everyone. I don't know how much saliva was wasted. It was not until nine o'clock that the exchange meeting officially began, and he was liberated.

"My God, I'm afraid of such occasions." Although my memory is amazing, there were too many people just now and the scene was quite chaotic, so some people still took business cards but couldn't match the number.

These are nothing in normal times, but when facing the scene, they will inevitably be attacked and become arrogant and crazy, so Li Yi feels a little headache.

"It's okay, I know most of these people, and I'll show you later."

Since it is an exchange meeting, it is naturally different from an ordinary exhibition. Appreciating antiques and then expressing your own opinions for discussion is the theme of the exchange meeting.

Because the exchange meeting is planned to be held for a long time, several companies have put certain restrictions on the number of cultural relics exhibited this time. Because the Zangzhen Museum is a new museum, it can produce 10 exhibits and 10 must produce 10, because many people come for their exhibits.

Each of the other three companies only took out 5 pieces, and together with the collections of some collectors and other museums in society, they collected a total of 40 exhibits.

This quantity may be a bit small compared to such a large-scale exchange meeting. However, these 40 collections are all national treasures, and there are many controversial things in it. From the perspective of the exchange meeting, this specification is already high enough.

The exchange meeting was relatively tight, with only two days in total, so even the evening time was used. The 40 exhibits were classified according to calligraphy, painting, porcelain, jade, and miscellaneous items. Each ten pieces will be exhibited and discussed at different time periods.

The first morning is the opening speech and exhibition, and the real discussion will begin in the afternoon.

After a brief speech was made by the president of the Palace Museum on behalf of the organizer, the exchange meeting went directly to the exhibition session.

The ten cultural relics taken out of the Tibetan Museum this time are worthy of treasures. In addition to the six works taken out of the roof box, even the golden cloud dragon-patterned vermilion lacquer roof box from the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty was brought to the scene as an exhibit. The other three were Mo Jinxuan's favorite porcelain, including the oversized Yuan blue and white disc and the Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup, which had just been brought back from Japan.

Most of the people here have heard of Li Yi taking out six priceless ancient paintings from a roof box. Many of them found the video of the time before coming. Therefore, at the beginning, an embarrassing scene appeared. Nearly 500 experts present, except for a very small number of them browsing other exhibits, most of the others flocked to the calligraphy and painting side, regardless of whether they were special identification and researching calligraphy and painting, they would rather queue up than take a look elsewhere!

Although I had expected this might happen, it is really happening now, and several curators in charge of the organization still feel a little depressed.

"Oh, forget it, this exchange meeting can reach such a large scale, which has also dragged Xiao Li and the others on their fortunes. Just rush to see it and go and see it. After watching it, I will always come to see other things."

Most of the things exhibited this time are not worse than those taken out by Li Yi, but people have a curiosity and experts are also humans, which is no exception, which is why this phenomenon is caused.

But this popularity cannot last for a long time, because many majors are not calligraphy and painting. They squeeze in and join in the fun. I believe it will be normal in a while.

Sure enough, the works that Li Yi brought out were lively in front of them for less than an hour, and the crowd gradually dispersed. But it was strange that these experts generally did not look at the things in their majors, but went to categories that they were not very good at and kept reading them, and they discussed with their companions while watching them.

"Because the next group discussions are time to look at what we are good at, so these old guys don't have a fuel-efficient lamp!"

Seeing Li Yi's somewhat puzzled gaze, a dean spread his hands and revealed the truth.

"It's true that I won't accompany you for a lot of time next time. To be honest, I haven't seen you guys yet!"
