Chapter 1392: Layout transaction


The next day, nine o'clock in the morning.
The head of the French branch of Sotheby's auction house rushed to the Regina Hotel with several top art appraisal experts. Everyone was extremely excited, with a brilliant smile on their faces.
"Good morning, Steven, nice to meet you, today is a really beautiful day, as soon as I went to bed in the morning, there were birds singing in my window, and then I received your call"
As soon as he walked into the presidential suite, the head of the French branch of Sotheby's auction house gave Ye Tian an extremely warm hug, with exaggerated expressions and movements.
"Edward, good morning, I am also very happy to see you again. It has been a few months since New York, and you are actually a lot fatter than before!
Quickly let go of me, buddies are almost out of breath, if you don't let go of those elephant-legged arms, be careful I put you on the ground! "
Ye Tian joked and said loudly, pretending to struggle a few times.
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter in the room, and everyone laughed.
After greeted each other and exchanged a few words, everyone went into the living room and sat down and talked about the topic.
Edward and the others came to the hotel, of course, for the outstanding painting by Gauguin, "Dancing Susanna"!
Ye Tian originally wanted to take this Gauguin masterpiece, which had never appeared before, back to New York, and send it to the top auction in New York's autumn auction, and make a fortune!
However, Martinez's words last night changed his mind and had to make a change!
Last night, Martinez and other French authority figures, famous collectors, and appraisal experts in the field of French antique art collection appreciated and appraised this outstanding painting by Gauguin one by one!
Needless to say, the results of the appraisal were unanimously determined by everyone on the scene that this is indeed a work of Gauguin's peak period, and has never appeared in front of people, this is the first time it has appeared!
Coupled with the emotional entanglement between Gauguin and Susanna, this painting is particularly special, with extraordinary meaning, and will surely become a good story in art history.
After confirming the authenticity of the painting, a group of Frenchmen did not evade Ye Tian in the slightest, and could not wait to discuss in a low voice on the spot.
The result of their discussion was finally communicated to Ye Tian by Martinez.
Due to the high value of this Gauguin painting and its special status in art history, they will advise relevant authorities to add this oil painting to the list of antique artworks that are restricted from leaving the country!
As the vice chairman of the French Artists Federation, Martinez speaks undoubtedly with great weight. Since he said so, it means that this oil painting must be restricted from leaving the country!
After talking about this, Martinez and a few other old and cunning guys immediately proposed to invest in the acquisition of this newly released Gauguin masterpiece!
Ye Tian has no way to stop the Frenchman's decision to restrict the departure of "Dancing Susanna", but he has the right to refuse to sell this top-of-the-art artwork on the spot, which is somewhat of a small revenge!
The answer he gave was to let these French guys raise money and prepare to go hand-in-hand with other buyers at the auction and fight for a good fight. The winner is king!
And he also told everyone clearly and unmistakably that this oil painting created by Gauguin's lover has a high reserve price for auction. No one should try to pick up the bargain, let alone join hands. It would only be self-defeating!
There is only one way to get this oil painting, which is to bid at the auction. Whoever can persist to the end and exceed the reserve price of the auction can get this masterpiece of Gauguin!
What can Martinez do with Ye Tian's decision? One by one could only accept with their posterior molars, and then left angrily, and went back to curse Ye Tian in circles!
Not long after these guys left, the detectives of the Paris Police Art Precaution Team came to visit and told Ye Tian unambiguously that "Dancing Susanna" would never be allowed to leave France!
Even if it is successfully auctioned off in the future, the ban on departure will still be effective. Of course, it has nothing to do with Ye Tian!
Because of this, these guys from the French branch of Sotheby's auction house can replace Sotheby's colleagues in New York and appear at the Regina Hotel to pick up a ready-made cheap!
This is the pie in the sky! Edward, can they not be ecstatic?
After about half an hour, these guys from Sotheby's auction house completed the appraisal, and the result couldn't be more clear!
Next, Ye Tian signed an auction agreement with them, entrusting Gauguin's "Dancing Susanna" and Susanna's body oil painting to Sotheby's auction house in France.
However, he did not immediately tell the other party the reserve price of the auction. God knows if these guys will leak the secret!
He is going to wait until the beginning of the auction, and then notify the fat man Edward, tell him the auction reserve price of these two oil paintings, try his best to avoid leaks and ensure his own interests!
As previously envisaged, he is going to put these two oil paintings for auction in a bundle, no matter where the buyer comes from, if he wants to take Gauguin's paintings, he must also take Susanna's body oil paintings!
In this way, not only can a good story in art history be achieved, but also the value of Susanna's body oil painting can be greatly enhanced!
As for the other super-realistic landscape painting, no one paid attention at all. Ye Tian plans to bring it back to New York and display it in the company as a commemoration!
After signing the commissioned auction contract, the French Sotheby's team immediately left the Regina Hotel with two oil paintings, and then went straight back to the auction house under the protection of a group of armed security personnel and police!
Sending away Edward and his party, Ye Tian and the others did not leave the hotel, went out to explore the beauty of Paris, or sweep the antique art market in Paris!
After a short break, Ye Tian took out his cell phone and started calling Martinez and the director of the Guimet Museum, Florent, and Benoit of the Fontainebleau Palace!
The time is ripe to tell these French guys the final answer. I choose to exchange with that museum, and that museum will get the three top jewels of Queen Mary!
On the phone, he told these French guys unambiguously that his choice was the Guimet Museum and would exchange Queen Mary’s top jewellery for the antique Chinese artworks in the Guimet Museum!
Of course, the Chinese antique artworks that the Jimei Museum exchanged were the priceless treasures that Ye Tian personally selected when he went to the Jimei Museum!
Although Martinez and Florent were furious that day and insisted that they would never accept such an exchange, but Ye Tian insisted that they finally accepted it in pain!
After receiving the call, Martinez and Florent were naturally very excited and cheered directly on the phone, although they still felt a little painful!
Contrary to the two of them, Benova couldn't be happy, his tone was full of regrets, and even a little depressed!
Ye Tian on the phone is very sure. The antique Chinese artworks from the Old Summer Palace in Fontainebleau Palace, don't even want to run, are all in the buds' pocket!
When the treasure of Napoleon buried on Xidi Island is born, the buddies will sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, and there will be no problem even if the Chinese Pavilion of the Fontainebleau Palace is emptied!
After determining the exchange museum, Ye Tian notified Martinez and Florent of the exchange time!
He set the time in three days, and then traded in three days!
Three days are enough time for the Jimei Museum to prepare, dismantle, pack, and send the Chinese antique artworks to a private plane, waiting for the instructions to take off!
For the sake of safety, Ye Tian did not notify the other party of the location of the transaction. He only told the other party that the transaction location must be outside France!
After all, this is France~EbookFREE.me~ is the place of those French guys.
With such a high-value art transaction, God knows if those French guys will be distracted! Have to be careful!
In addition to these French guys, we must also guard against those jewel thieves and antique art thieves. Once the news is leaked, those guys will swarm like flies!
Even if Ye Tian used extremely cruel and means to kill a group of eyeless Pink Panther members, this was not enough to deter everyone!
The value and temptation of this antique art transaction are enough to make countless people go crazy, and there must be many people who are willing to take risks for this!
After talking about the business, Ye Tian chatted with Martinez and Florent for a while, then hung up the phone and ended the call!
After a short break and two sips of coffee, Ye Tian picked up the phone again.
You can inform people in China that they are ready to leave and come to Europe to pick up the goods!
