314 Retreat to advance

"Detain your seventh child!"

The old man came to Chen Rui and bowed ninety degrees.

When Chen Rui heard the old Japanese man greeting him, he wanted to go up and give him a shot.

Mad, it’s just our first meeting, and you want to detain my Qiwa? My Qiwa, am I provoking you?

But he just thought about it, and there was a faint smile on his face: "Hello."

Although he hated this old Japanese pirate, he had to say that the Japanese were very good at what they did.

As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. If someone is so polite, it's hard for him to find fault.

"Brother, let me tell you, Mr. Ishihara is an expert in appraising European oil paintings."

"He is quite famous in Japan and Europe. Many Japanese bosses come to him for appraisal when buying famous European paintings."

"I spent a lot of effort to invite him here this time."

While He Xiaohe was introducing this Shi Yuan, he was patting himself on the back.

How could Chen Rui not understand what he meant? He just wanted to ask for love from him.

"Oh, thank you so much, brother. Don't worry, I will thank you deeply after this auction is over."

It’s all verbal checks anyway, who doesn’t know how to write them?

Furthermore, Ishihara is so powerful, why haven’t I heard of him?

Although Chen Rui secretly cursed a lot, he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he kept making excuses with He Xiaohe.

"Hi! Brothers, what else can you say to say thank you?"

He Xiaohe pretended to be generous, and Ishihara Ichiro also asked them in English with a strong accent.

"Chen Sang, you said you have two paintings by Rembrandt..."

"Oh! Haha, here it is!"

Chen Rui didn't even have any ink marks, so he just pulled the two paintings out from behind.

Seeing his aggressive movements, the corners of Ishihara Ichiro's eyes twitched.

This guy is too stupid, isn’t he? This is Rembrandt’s painting, how can you be so casual?

However, he could only complain about these words in his heart.

On the surface, he took the two oil paintings from Chen Rui very obediently.

As soon as he took possession of the painting, he knew that it was no ordinary oil painting, but an extraordinary wood panel painting.

He Xiaohe waved, and soon two of his men brought over two wooden frames.

Ishihara Ichiro very carefully placed the two oil paintings on the wooden stand, and then carefully removed the ropes tied around the outside of the oil paintings.

Then gently remove the kraft paper wrapping the oil painting.

Two wooden paintings were exposed to everyone.

Mr. Yao, who was sitting far away and looked down upon Chen Rui, now sat upright unconsciously.

My eyes were fixed on these two oil paintings.

Although it is not yet certain whether these two wood panel paintings are genuine works by Rembrandt.

But at least it can be seen from the content and techniques of these two paintings.

The quality of these two paintings is very high.

Mr. Yao's eyes immediately began to chatter.

It was obvious that he had a strong interest in these two paintings.

As for Ishihara Ichiro, his breathing became even more rapid.

He took out a magnifying glass and almost lay down on it to look at the portrait of the bearded man.

"Wow, the slightly closed lips, the contours of the lips."

"And the light portrayal of the face, and the shadow of the nose..."

"Tsk tsk tsk, these are Rembrandt's brushwork."

"And the hair can be painted so delicately. If you look closely, you can even see the shadow of the hair."

"The control of these details is definitely the characteristic of Rembrandt, the master of light and shadow."

Not to mention, this Ishihara is really quite good.

After just looking at it for a while, you can see so many clues from this painting.

It has been almost two days since Chen Rui took down this painting.

He had been looking at these two paintings in the past two days, but if he was asked to tell them exactly what they were, he really couldn't tell.

After all, he is not an art major, so he really doesn't know where to start when it comes to evaluating the quality of a painting.

He also knew that Rembrandt was a master of light and shadow, but he couldn't really tell where his master of light and shadow was reflected.

But now, after listening to Ishihara Ichiro's words, he understood what was so good about Rembrandt's painting.

It turns out that people’s greatness is hidden in the details.

At this moment, the old lamp Ishihara turned his attention to the painting "Polish Knight" on the other side.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the details of this armor, look here, even the reflections of the armor plates are drawn."

"There is also the war horse and the shadow of the knight on the horse. Even the curves are drawn so realistically."

"This is indeed the characteristic of Rembrandt's light and shadow painting..."

The room was very quiet now.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the old man, especially the He family and his son, whose faces were even more ecstatic at this moment.

If these two Rembrandt works are genuine, then they will hold an auction next.

Just two more great items for the finale!

Given Brown's fame, one of his two paintings would cost tens of millions of dollars.

They can easily make commissions of hundreds of thousands.

This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that these two paintings support the scene.

It can help them attract more bidders and make their auctions more prosperous.

But no one expected that the style of Ishihara would suddenly change next.

"However, these two paintings are already very close to Rembrandt's level in terms of technique."

"But that's just close. These two paintings are not the real works of Rembrandt."

After Ishihara finished speaking, he raised his head, and a look of joy flashed across his face.

Chen Rui was slightly shocked, while Mr. He Fan and his father on the other side had very bad expressions.

Even Mr. Yao, who was next to He Fan, looked disappointed when he heard this.

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

"Well, before I came here this time, I heard that the works I wanted to examine were Rembrandt's works, so I asked someone to check the information in the Netherlands."

"There is a Rembrandt research group in the Netherlands. Everyone knows about it, right?"

This is an organization that specializes in identifying the authenticity of Rembrandt's paintings. Anyone who has played with Western antiques will know this.

Mr. He Fan and Mr. Yao all nodded.

"I have seen the names of these two paintings from their database."

"Unfortunately, the two "Portrait of a Bearded Man" and "Polish Knight" have been classified as imitations."

When it comes to this, I have to say that the Dutch are thieves.

Their Rembrandt research team travels around the world to identify Rembrandt paintings in museums and private collectors.

But after the appraisal, only they and the collectors knew the authenticity of these paintings.

They only announced to the outside world the total number of authentic Rembrandts in existence after identification.

As for which picture is true and which is false, they will not announce it to the public.

If you want to know, then you have to pay for them...

They can still make a lot of money from you through the data fees.
