"Steven, I am a reporter from CNN. Since the Pope has agreed to your request and comes to the United States to officiate at your wedding to Betty, you will also present these two top works of art to the Vatican.
Does this mean that Raphael's "Madonna" and Michelangelo's "Lamentation of Christ" will not be publicly exhibited in the United States, and Americans will not have the opportunity to appreciate these two top works of art? "
A male reporter from CNN asked loudly, with a hint of regret in his tone.
Ye Tian looked at the reporter, then gently shook his head, and said loudly with a smile:
“Now that I have brought these two top-notch works of art back to New York, I will display them in front of all New Yorkers, so that everyone can enjoy and appreciate the artistic charm of the three masters of Renaissance art.
If not, wouldn't it be a pity? Before I return to New York, I have reached an agreement with the Metropolitan Museum. These two top-notch works of art will be publicly displayed at the Metropolitan Museum tomorrow.
You can go to the Metropolitan Museum to visit and appreciate these two outstanding paintings. This is an opportunity not to be missed. After my wedding is over, they will leave New York and return to the Vatican! "
"That's great, Steven. We will definitely visit it when we have time. Those are Raphael and Michelangelo, and they have disappeared for more than two hundred years. Of course they are not to be missed!"
Many media reporters at the scene could not help but cheer, and they were all extremely excited.
Next, several media reporters asked some questions about these two top works of art and the Pope’s trip to the United States.
Ye Tian answered those who could answer them one by one. He did not reveal a single word about the confidential information that he could not answer!
After more than ten minutes, everyone's attention shifted.
Another media reporter sitting in the back row raised his hand and asked loudly:
"Stephen, can you tell us about the documents that are closely related to Napoleon? How did you deal with those documents? Did you leave them in Paris or bring them back to New York?
According to some experts in the field of history, those documents are extremely important. They will rewrite the partial history of the French Revolution, and their value is not even lower than the original version of the Napoleonic Code."
As the reporter asked the question, many historians on the live broadcast immediately opened their eyes wide and stared at Ye Tian, waiting for his answer!
Ye Tian looked at the reporter, nodded to him, and then said with a smile:
"You are absolutely right. Those documents and materials closely related to Napoleon are indeed extremely important and extremely precious. They are the most valuable materials for studying the history of the French Revolution.
However, I did not bring those historical documents back to New York. Instead, I left them in France and Paris, where they should exist most.
On the day when Napoleon's treasure was discovered, the French President and Minister of Culture, as well as some French experts and scholars, proposed to acquire those documents and materials with a very strong willingness.
Seeing this situation, I couldn’t refuse, and considering that it was the first-hand information for studying the history of the French Revolution, I nodded and agreed and made a deal with them."
Hearing this, the French President and Martinez on the other side of the ocean rolled their eyes angrily, and some related people even felt itchy with hatred!
That sounds so nice! As if you are such a merciful bastard! When you were madly looting us, you, the bastard, showed no mercy. You were so cruel!
Although Ye Tian did not see the reaction of these old French friends with his own eyes, he completely guessed it!
Of course, he didn't care at all and continued to talk.
“I used documents and materials closely related to Napoleon to exchange some Chinese antique artworks and important Chinese cultural relics collected in major French museums and other cultural institutions.
Among them is the "Ode to Forty Views of the Old Summer Palace" from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, which was plundered from the Old Summer Palace by the French army in 1860 and is collected in the French National Library. It is one of the most important Old Summer Palace artworks.
In addition, there are also some important cultural relics from the Mogao Grottoes Sutra Cave in Dunhuang that are also collected in the French National Library, including various Buddhist scriptures, social documents, silk paintings, Buddhist instruments and other cultural relics.
Also from the Old Summer Palace, some important antique artworks that have been collected in the Chinese Pavilion of the Palace of Fontainebleau for more than a hundred years are also included, as well as other important Chinese antique artworks!
Many of the objects involved in this art transaction are antique cultural relics or documents that have never been circulated in the market. The value is difficult to estimate, but to be honest, I am definitely the loser!
After completing the transaction, I brought the Chinese antiques and artworks I exchanged back to New York. They are also undergoing customs inspection at the airport, just like the antiques and artworks in Napoleon's treasure!
Some people may know that I have a personal exhibition hall in the Forbidden City of China. These antique works of art will soon be shipped to Beijing and all displayed in my personal exhibition hall for people to enjoy!
When the time comes, I will also build a private museum to display my collection, which includes antiques and art that will be discovered in the future, as well as treasures obtained through exchange! "
After hearing what Ye Tian said, the eyes of many people in the industry, experts and scholars far away in China suddenly lit up, shining brightly, like searchlights!
What's more, they cheered excitedly, and everyone danced, as happy as a child!
If nothing else, the return of this national treasure-level work of art, "Ode to Forty Scenes of the Old Summer Palace" that everyone has been thinking about for a long time, is worthy of everyone's celebration!
Many French people on the other side of the Atlantic had a different reaction!
They may be a little embarrassed. Ye Tian just mentioned a lot of antique art from the Old Summer Palace. Those things were looted by the French army. Of course they have no confidence!
However, they are more angry and even want to curse at the top of their lungs!
Are you the loser in the transaction? It’s nonsense to miss him!
Steven, you greedy bastard, you have the nerve to say with a shameless face, we are the ones who were crazily robbed, okay?
After this art transaction, the top Chinese antiques and cultural relics collected by several museums and cultural institutions in Paris have been looted by you bastard. There is no chance of relief!
After introducing the processing methods of those historical documents, the matter about Napoleon's treasure is basically revealed to the world!
As a result, even if someone wants to get the idea of those top antique artworks, there is not much space and it is difficult to start.
A little later, when Ye Tian publishes on the Internet the list of antique artworks he brought back to New York, then everyone will know that these antique artworks are his private property!
At that time, as long as it is not obtained through legal means, it will be illegal for anyone to hold those top antique works of art, and they will not be able to see the light of day, let alone be auctioned!
Next, many media reporters changed their targets and began to ask about the two sunken treasures on the bottom of the English Channel, and what to do with the gold and silver treasures that were salvaged!
Compared with Napoleon's treasure, the value of the two shipwreck treasures is obviously very different.
But that is for Ye Tian. For others, those two sunken treasures are definitely a huge amount of wealth that can make people crazy!
**Gold, the ancient Egyptian cat **** Bast's gold mask, the gold crown, a large amount of Spanish antique gold coins, and those dazzling jewelry diamonds, etc.
Every treasure is valuable, extremely eye-catching, and has many wonderful stories hidden behind it!
Same as before, Ye Tian answered all the questions raised by these media reporters. Those who could not, did not reveal a single word!
It just so happened that he took this opportunity to disclose the handling method of that batch of gold, completely cutting off the unrealistic illusions of some people and countries!
He bluntly said that all the foreign gold will be sold to the Federal Reserve based on market prices and become the Federal Reserve's reserve gold.
When Ye Tian said this solution in front of everyone with a smile on his face, countless live broadcasts immediately boiled, and there were loud and crazy curses with extreme anger!
