Zhou Chen lowered his head and sighed deeply, and continued, "This matter is also strange. After we purchased this painting and washed this pen, not long after, before the auction was over, we were again
Two people took an exact same painting and washed it and sold it... Our people were panicked when they saw it. Fortunately, the paintings and brush washing we bought were not auctioned at the beginning. If this were after the auction
, These two identical calligraphy and paintings and brushes are passed on and will not be smashed yet
We have the brand of our Zhou family!”
"So in order to preserve the reputation of the Zhou family, you can only buy this second painting and the second pen!" Lin Yu smiled, and could feel Zhou Chen's helplessness. If you buy it, at least
The initiative is still in their hands. At worst, you can test all these things well and distinguish them from the true or false, but if you have a second painting and a brush wash
If they were bought by other colleagues and were the first to auction, then the painting and brush washing in their hands will become a fake!
Even if they wash the paintings and pens and smash the other party’s brand, it will only harm others and not benefit themselves. Therefore, the best way is to buy them regardless of whether they are fakes or not!
"Yes, what else can I do if I don't buy it!" Zhou Chen said with a sad face, "Even though I know it's a silence, I can only admit defeat. You also know that there is no refund in the antique industry, no exchange, no compensation, no compensation in the antique industry.
The three principles of non-principles: if you buy it, you can only admit defeat, so I can only consider it
I can’t force people to take back the goods if I can find the two people who sold us at the beginning!”
"Well, I know, but you should be able to see that this is a deliberately designed to run you!"
Lin Yu smiled and said, since Zhou Chen received this painting and brush and immediately came out again, and they all came to him to sell it, it means that they were deliberately targeting him! He specially set up a plan for him!
"I've thought about this too!"
Zhou Chen nodded, looked at the two paintings and two pens on the table, and said helplessly, "But no matter what I think, I would never have thought of any colleague who is so powerful that he can get such a similar famous painting and pen.
wash!"
Two authentic products that are exactly the same, and look at the entire antique industry, have never been seen before!
"Xiaochen, if you ask me, just wash one of the paintings and a pen and destroy it. Isn't the rest the same authentic?!"
Jiang Jingren pushed down his reading glasses and walked over to persuade him, saying that he felt that there was nothing to worry about in this matter. Since he couldn't tell the truth or the false, it would be the same for everyone to leave.
"Uncle, I actually thought so, but I'm afraid that after I do this, there will be a third authentic product that is exactly the same!"
Zhou Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly. After so many years of being in the antique industry, how could he have thought of this idea? But since there is a second imitation that is exactly the same, there will be a third one!
"Well, Brother Zhou's concern is not unreasonable!"
Lin Yu nodded and said.
"And, although the price I bought for this painting and pen washing is lower than the market price, I bought two copies!"
Zhou Chen patted the palm of his other hand with the back of his hand and said anxiously, "Even if I ruined one and sold another one, I can't even get back the cost!" Lin Yu frowned slightly and nodded.
Indeed, it’s like the white jade carved five-dragon pattern brush washing, the market price can be about 15 million yuan, but Zhou Chen may have bought these two pieces on the table for a total of 20 million yuan.
How to calculate how to compensate!
"Actually, I'm not afraid of losing money!" Zhou Chen said worriedly with a calm face, "I'm just afraid that this situation will happen in the future, so there is no need to be too much. If there are three or four more times, our auction house will not have to do it! His mother
Oh, I have been working for so long, but I have never encountered such a difficult thing
"What I fear most in the antique industry is to get fakes. Although there are precision instruments and various famous masters and professors who are famous for their names, the fake craftsmanship in the antique industry has always been
In improving, it can be said to be defense
It is hard to guard against, but Zhou Chen has worked with his father for so many years, and this is the first time he has seen such a similar and realistic fake!
"Brother Zhou, everything has its advantages and disadvantages. If you want me to tell me, this may be a good thing!"
Lin Yu looked at Zhou Chen's anxious look and jumped up and down, and felt embarrassed to continue teasing him. He smiled and said straight to the point, "Actually, I have seen the tricks here!"
"What?!"
Zhou Chen was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Lin Yu with an incredible face. He was surprised and happy. He opened his mouth wide and said tremblingly, "Jiarong, you, didn't you tease me, right?"
"No!"
Lin Yu smiled and shook his head, "Actually I should have thought of it!"
Master Chen and Master Qi on the side were also shocked, and looked at each other in surprise. Then they looked at Lin Yu with burning eyes and said anxiously, "Mr. He, do you see the clues in this?! Please
You can give me some advice!" Although they were noble and arrogant, they were all focused on antiques. Their love for antiques was even higher than life. They had been studying for several days but could not understand what the mystery was there.
How do you think
It looks really, and it can be said that it is scratching my head, so when they hear Lin Yu, they can't wait to hear Lin Yu's opinion.
Jiang Jingren, who was standing beside him, was also excited when he heard his son-in-law's words, and hurried over and listened with his ears.
Seeing that everyone was anxious, Lin Yu did not continue to keep it in hiding, and smiled and said, "Actually..."
"Boss, Secretary Zhang said that a guest came outside and said he wanted to see you!"
As soon as Lin Yu spoke, a sudden shout came from outside. Then the uniformed man who had been standing guard at the first door quickly walked out of the door and stood outside the door but did not dare to come in.
"Damn, you really know how to shout when you pick it!"
Zhou Chen was startled by the man in uniform and immediately scolded him with a calm face, and said coldly, "Didn't I say that no one can come and disturb us? No matter what kind of guest it is, let him wait outside!"
"I know, but Secretary Zhang said that this is an important guest, letting you go out to see him no matter how you do!" The man in uniform bent slightly and said carefully to Zhou Chen, "Secretary Zhang also asked me to tell you that this guest said
He is here to help our company to help us solve the situation. He is willing to use the two calligraphy and pens we bought before at the original price... What is the purpose of the pen
I'll buy it back!"
Because the men's uniforms are too low, they don't know how to draw and brush wash at all, and they can't help but make some expressions when they speak.
"Pen wash?!"
Zhou Chen was stunned when he heard the man in uniform, turned his head and said in shock, "He is here to wash our two paintings and two pens?"
"Yes, brush washing, he said, you can buy it at the original price!"
The man in uniform nodded quickly.
Zhou Chen opened his eyes wide, turned his head blankly toward Lin Yu, and said in surprise, "Jiarong, you said this person..."
"Didn't you just say that you can't figure out who your colleague was who framed you? You, such a powerful colleague, came to your door!"
Lin Yu smiled at him. There was no doubt that the person who came outside must be the one who made the layout this time.
Zhou Chen nodded calmly. He actually thought of this and said to Lin Yu, "Why don't we go and meet him first!"
"Will you know, you will know, go!"
Lin Yu smiled disconcerted, and wanted to see who was causing trouble for their company.
After everyone walked out, the supervisor carefully locked the door of the vault and then ran out. Zhou Chen took Lin Yu and the others to the company's reception room, and saw that there was a three-dimensional sitting in the huge reception room.
A man in his teenage hair was neatly combed behind his head, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, fair-looking and dressed in a dress
The sexy light pink suit looks like a southerner, holding a briefcase in his hand, and from time to time he looks down at the watch in his hand.
"Hello!"
After entering the door, Zhou Chen's face darkened and he whispered hello. Since he knew that the man with greasy hair and pink faces was probably the one who made arrangements for him, he naturally had no good face.
"Oh, Manager Zhou, hello!"
The pink suit stood up quickly, shouted enthusiastically at Zhou Chen, and then reached out to shake hands with Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen glanced at his hand, but didn't even hold it with him. He sat on the sofa opposite, looked coldly at the pink suit, and said in a deep voice, "Tell me, who are you, what are you here for."
?!"
"Manager Zhou, I heard that you purchased two identical Wu Daozi's "Confucius's Teachings" and I also heard that you purchased two identical Qing Qianlong white jade carvings of five dragon pattern brushes to wash!" The pink suit was not in a circle either.
He smiled gently while holding the briefcase with both hands, and said directly, "I'm here to buy these four things. In other words, I'm here this time to help you solve the situation!"
