"The real one?"

Hearing Lin Chen's firm judgment, Kong Yang was shocked, and he couldn't tell whether he was surprised or frightened.

"Are you sure, Mr. Lin?"

"That's right." Lin Chen nodded again.

"Why?" Kong Yang said quickly, "to be honest with Mr. Lin, I have found many directors of art academies and curators of collection museums overseas before. They all told me that this painting is a fake! And

He pointed to the side of LV Li: "after returning home, I asked this Mr. Lv to identify, and his conclusion is completely consistent with those overseas experts!"

Lin Chen said with a smile: "since so many people say it's a fake, why do you come to me specially?"

When Kong Yang heard the words, his face was bitter.

Su Wuyi didn't want to see his old friend embarrassed and said for him, "Lin Chen, this painting was bought by Lao Kong for 1.3 billion! No one would want to buy a fake for 1.3 billion yuan. Isn't that the last hope he wants you to see? Why do you talk so much nonsense? Just make it clear

"Make it clear? I said, "I'm sure this is the real one." Lin Chen replied.

"Why?" Su Wuyi asked.

reason?

It's not as hard as Lin Chen.

He made this judgment because he calculated that the probability that the painting was an authentic one was 100%.

As for the reason, how can he say it?

However, Lin Chen can't say it, but he knows someone can.

Lin Chen turned his mouth slightly and looked at LV Li: "Lv Li, why do you think this painting is a fake?"

Lu Li also wanted to know the basis of Lin Chen's judgment, so he said, "Mr. Lin, my reason is this."

He pointed to the porcelain held by the old man in the painting: "according to today's common sense, blue and white porcelain was only introduced to Italy around the 17th century. Andrea mantenia was a man from the 15th to 16th century. Naturally, he could not have seen this kind of thing, so it can be considered as a fake just by this."

Is there another reason?

It's the first time Lin Chen has heard about this kind of thing. He finds that if he doesn't have the ability to see the success rate, he can't really play with the appraisal of Western oil painting.

Because the field of knowledge involved in oil painting appraisal is too broad.

The probability that blue and white porcelain was introduced to Italy in the 17th century is... 0%.

Seeing the result, Lin Chen asked, "Lu Li, are you sure blue and white porcelain was introduced to Italy around the 17th century?"

"This..."

Speaking of this matter, Kong Yang can say a few words: "it is generally recognized that Europe got the manufacturing technology of porcelain from island countries in the 17th century, and Germany was the first to make porcelain."

"That's just porcelain making technology, isn't it? What about the finished product? 15. In the 16th century, Italy should also have access to porcelain by means of trade, right? Perhaps it was in this way that Andrea mantenia saw porcelain and drew it into his paintings

"It's just one side of your story, isn't it? There's no evidence. That's not what foreign experts say... "

Before Kong Yang had finished speaking, Lu Li said, "old Kong! Mr. Lin's words are really possible! "

"What?" Kong Yang was stunned.

Lu Li explained: "I have heard a rumor before that in Italy, fragments of blue and white porcelain unearthed in the 16th century have been found..."

"What? Why haven't I heard of such a thing? " Kong Yang was shocked.

"Because the fragment disappeared not long after it was unearthed." Lu Li recalled, "I also heard my master mention it at the beginning. He talked about it to tell me the dark side of the western art world."

"In Western art circles, there is such a practice. Some art experts, by chance, have mastered the secret of some works of art unknown to outsiders, which can sometimes prove the authenticity of an art. But for the sake of self-interest, these people will hide the secret for the time being. After they first say that the real thing is a fake, and then buy it at a low price, they will take out relevant evidence to prove that it is a real one! "

"Once in a while, the huge profits during this period fall into the pockets of these experts."

"There is such a thing..."

Kong Yang and Su Wuyi were both shocked. What Lu Li revealed was the dark side of the western art world that they did not know at all.

Kong Yang was even more pale and said: "no wonder... After I went to those foreign experts for identification, they all said that although it was a fake, it had certain value. I hope to buy this fake from me at a low price."

"At the beginning, I thought they just liked the fake, but they had ulterior motives!"

"Shit! I said those foreign devils are not good things! I like playing this game Su Wuyi was filled with righteous indignation.

Instead of joining their conversation, Lu Li looked at Lin Chen and said, "Mr. Lin, you have known about this for a long time, so you think this painting is genuine?"

"Ha ha ha, yes, you can see that." Lin Chen said with a smile, "but you are not bad, LV Li. You can hear all these secrets."

"It's also a good teacher before." Lu Li said modestly, "but I'm still much worse than Mr. Lin."

At this time, Kong Yang, who had come back to himself, strode over and sat beside Lin Chen: "Mr. Lin, thank you for solving my doubts. Today I can finally have a good sleep."

Lin Chen waved his hand: "it's all right. It's just a little help for me."

Kong Yang said: "Mr. Lin, although I failed last time, I still want to ask again this time. Do you have any interest in joining our committee?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "sorry, my answer is still the same."

"I know..." Kong Yang had some regrets on his face, but he was not discouraged. "Mr. Lin, it doesn't matter if you don't join the committee, but there is a plan, but I hope you can agree to join it anyway."

"Plan? What's the plan? " Lin Chen asked.

Kong Yang said: "this plan is a big plan made by our committee. This picture" the pilgrimage of three Oriental doctors "is actually a part of this plan. We call this plan "national treasure redemption plan!"

"National treasure redemption plan?"

"Yes, Mr. Lin!" "As you know, China was weak in those days, and many cultural relics and national treasures were exiled overseas. Now China is strong and prosperous, and the country has the idea to ask for them back," Kong explained

"Officially, the state is using its influence to exert influence on those overseas official organizations and let them return many national treasures on their own initiative."

"Among the people, there are also many patriots who pay their own money to buy some cultural relics back home."

"However, it is difficult for us to recover some treasures, whether they are official or private, because those foreigners do not sell them at all."

"These people are either some folk collectors or some overseas private art galleries. For them, money alone can't move them. So we have come up with a solution, that is to exchange things for things!"
