Chapter 213 The Louvre spent 500 million U.S. dollars to acquire paintings(1/2)
Two days later...
Lin Yu opened his eyes, and he slept so soundly!
After walking out of the room and looking at Hu Liting lying on the sofa, Lin Yu said doubtfully: "Hey, you haven't left yet!"
Hu Liting rolled her eyes.
Go?
Where to go?
You haven't paid my legal fees yet, and you want me to leave?
Hu Liting said: "Lawyer fees."
Lin Yu smiled awkwardly: "If you didn't tell me, I almost forgot. By the way, didn't we go to court? This... can the lawyer's fees be reduced?"
Hu Liting:??????
Less?
You can try it.
Hu Liting's heart moved: "Well, how about you give me the "Mona Lisa" you painted and it will offset the legal fees?"
Good guy
Still thinking about the "Mona Lisa"?
I think you are crazy.
Lin Yu said: "Give me your account number, and I'll give you one hundred thousand dollars."
Dong Dong Dong·····
There was a knock on the door.
Hu Liting walked over and opened the door. An old man with white hair stood outside. Watching Lin Yu wake up, he smiled and said: "Mr. Lin, you're awake."
"What is it?"
"Hello, my name is Felipe Imiti, and I am the director of the Louvre."
Hu Liting: "Please come in."
"Thank you."
While Felipe Imiti was speaking, he entered the room.
"Director, do you have something to do with me?"
Felipe Imiti smiled and said: "Mr. Lin, your "Mona Lisa" has attracted worldwide attention. We want to collect your paintings. This time we are here to talk about the acquisition."
Lin Yu chuckled: "Don't you have one in the Louvre?"
Felipe Imiti: "Why should Mr. Lin ask questions knowingly? It is indeed a fake and was lost hundreds of years ago."
"How much are you willing to pay?"
"Five billion dollars."
Hu Liting stood nearby with a shocked face.
Five hundred million US dollars?
That's several billion dragon coins.
Is this painting really worth so much?
Felipe Imiti continued: "After the acquisition, we will announce it to the public to enhance your reputation."
Lin Yu smiled and said: "500 million seems a bit too little."
Felipe Imiti:????
Is 500 million too little?
This is 500 million US dollars, not 500 million dragon coins.
The release of this painting proves that the one in the Louvre is a fake. The two works are completely different. The fake is not qualified to be placed in the Louvre. You must know that the Mona Lisa is the treasure of the Louvre.<
/p>
Lin Yu continued: "The real "Mona Lisa" is not worth 500 million US dollars."
"You are not Leonardo da Vinci."
Felipe Imiti made it very clear that if you were the reincarnation of Leonardo da Vinci, 500 million would indeed be less.
But
You are not
No matter how high your painting talent is, you are not Leonardo da Vinci.
Even if you get Leonardo da Vinci's painting talent, you are not.
This old man sees things very accurately!
Felipe Imiti is right, even if he is possessed by ghosts and gods, he is not Leonardo da Vinci!
Lin Yu said: "I like the Mona Lisa painting very much. If you ask me to paint another one, I can't paint that feeling. I can show it to you in the Louvre, but you need to pay rent."
p>
Felipe Imiti is thoughtful.
This Easterner will surely become the greatest painter in the world.
His painting talent is unparalleled.
He is only 20 years old!
There are still good years left, so renting is not out of the question.
Felipe Imiti nodded and said: "Okay, ten million US dollars a year, what do you think?"
"But you need to pay ten years' rent first."
"Of course, it will naturally start in ten years."
Lin Yu looked at Hu Liting and said, "Help me prepare the contract."
Hu Liting nodded, turned on the computer, and immediately drafted a lease contract. Hu Liting asked, "How should I pay for the damage?"
Felipe Yimiti said: "Please rest assured on this point, we will protect it carefully and it will never be damaged."
Hu Liting shook her head: "No, it must be written into the contract. If it is damaged, compensation will be based on one hundred years of rent. You must know that a masterpiece will be passed down to future generations, even hundreds of years."
Felipe Imiti thought for a while.
One hundred years of rent compensation?
That's 1 billion US dollars.
The price is a bit high.
Felipe Imiti: "Calculated according to fifty years."
Hu Liting looked at Lin Yu.
Lin Yu nodded, fifty years, just fifty years!
Hu Liting quickly drafted a contract, Felipe Imiti called, and a professional lawyer came to look at the contract. There was no problem, and both parties signed and pledged it.
Hu Liting looked at Lin Yu: "Do you need me to help you open a Swiss bank account? It is more convenient to use a Swiss account, and there is no need to pay taxes."
"No need to pay tax?"
"Yes, there is no tax on entering a Swiss account through funds. You can spend it as you like. If you keep it in China, you will need to pay 40% tax on your income of 100 million U.S. dollars."
"Many wealthy people have dual international identities and like to use Swiss banks."
"This is true for all the richest people in the country. They all avoid taxes."
Lin Yu's heart moved, this is great!
One hundred million US dollars will cost 40 million in taxes.
There is no tax on using a Swiss bank.
This is simply awesome.
Lin Yu nodded: "Okay."
Hu Liting smiled and said: "How about you hire me to be your lawyer, and I can help you avoid some taxes and maximize your funds."
"Don't you have to pay tax?"
"Any country needs to collect taxes, and it's the same in Switzerland. It's the same here. Many wealthy people have professional lawyers. For example, domestic Alibaba, Huawei... all have professional lawyers."
"They will all find ways to avoid taxes."
Lin Yu complained: "Isn't that tax evasion?"
