The Chinese calligraphy and painting works placed on the shelves of this museum, except for a few paintings in frames, are all albums and scrolls, and it is difficult to see clearly for a while.
Some of the scrolls even had seals on them and were tied with ribbons.
It can be seen from this that after the dead liar from the Art Space Auction House accepted these calligraphy and painting scrolls, he did not open them at all and threw them directly into the warehouse.
As for publicity, previews, and auctions, they are nothing more than excuses to fool the client.
For these die-hard swindlers, after receiving high appraisal fees, publicity fees, and preview fees, the deception is over!
They have no intention of arranging for these things to be auctioned, and they are not willing to spend any more time on these paintings and calligraphy works, let alone spend an extra cent.
If the prediction is correct, the people who send these Chinese paintings and calligraphy works to the Art Space Auction House will most likely be Chinese tourists visiting New York.
They sent these paintings and calligraphy works to the auction with great anticipation, hoping to get an ideal price.
But who would have imagined that when they left New York, these paintings and calligraphy works were discarded like old shoes and thrown directly into the warehouse to eat dust.
And they have returned to China or gone to other places, and it is impossible to get these paintings and calligraphy works back.
More likely, these scammers will tell them.
After secondary appraisal, these calligraphy and painting works were determined to be fakes and worthless!
This completely cuts off their thoughts and avoids legal troubles.
After a while, those unlucky people will gradually forget about these paintings and calligraphy works, or even give up completely.
What's even more annoying is that the preservation conditions of these paintings and calligraphy works are not good, some are even damp and moldy, and the edges are rotten.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Ran couldn't help but feel itchy with hatred.
Not all scrolls are tied, there is also an ink landscape scroll hanging on this museum shelf.
This is a picture of "Late Return from the Mountains and Forests". The painting has a clear and elegant charm, lofty artistic conception and good painting skills.
There is a small poem in the upper right corner of the painting, stamped with Wen Zhengming's seal, as well as the collection seals of many literati. It looks like that.
Unfortunately, this is just a copy and has little value.
Xiao Ran stood in front of the painting and admired it for a moment, then stepped forward to check the other paintings and calligraphy works on the museum shelf.
He couldn't help but frowned when he saw the worrying preservation situation of those paintings and calligraphy works.
At the same time, I also made a decision not to open these Chinese calligraphy and painting works for the time being to avoid any accidents.
If some unnecessary losses are caused, it is very likely that they will be blackmailed by these die-hard scammers from the Art Space Auction House, and then the gain will not be worth the loss!
For him, it makes no difference whether he can open these paintings and calligraphy works for inspection or not.
He had already secretly turned on perspective and looked through these calligraphy and painting works, knowing what treasures were hidden inside.
After taking pictures of these calligraphy and painting works, it’s not too late to take them back and examine them carefully.
Seeing this scene in front of them, many fans in the live broadcast room were gnashing their teeth in hatred.
"Fuck! These grandsons are so wicked!"
"Regardless of the authenticity and value of these things, they are the client's property and even beloved items!"
"Not only did these grandsons cheat money, but they also ruined other people's things like this! They should all be pulled out and shot!"
The salty fish who was eating soft food said while biting his back molars.
"For these die-hard liars, as long as they can get a lot of money from them!"
"As for these calligraphy and painting works, it's good that they weren't burned by these dead liars!"
Hatsuko said helplessly with a hint of helplessness.
Xiao Ran nodded slightly and then echoed a few words.
"That's right, these damn liars only care about making money, but they don't care about the life and death of these paintings and calligraphy works!"
"They don't have any identification skills. Really capable identification experts don't even bother to cooperate with them."
"As a result, these guys will be too lazy to do a second appraisal, which will cost money!"
"Even if it's filmed, it's just an act! It's just for the people who are being deceived."
"In this case, something truly valuable was destroyed by these dead liars!"
While he was talking, Wilson had already approached.
Xiao Ran immediately stopped talking and pointed to the Chinese calligraphy and painting works on the museum shelf.
"Wilson, what's going on with these Chinese paintings and calligraphy works? Why are they in such poor condition?"
"This shouldn't be the case. You are an auction house. Don't you even have this level of professional ability?"
Upon hearing this, Wilson's old face immediately turned red.
But he returned to normal in a blink of an eye, and then he made a few excuses.
"That's right, Mr. Sean, about five months ago, the constant temperature and humidity system in our vault broke down."
"It is very difficult for the company to operate now. It cannot make ends meet, and it has been delayed until now without repairs."
"Then I went out for water again, that's why this happened. I hope you can understand."
This is just telling lies with open eyes. They don't have any vault, let alone a constant temperature and humidity system!
Some of them may just be a broken warehouse, and the conditions inside must be very poor!
Xiao Ran pretended to be helpless and shook his head.
"It doesn't matter whether I understand or not, I'm not a customer of your auction house anyway."
"It's just a pity that these paintings and calligraphy works have been turned into like this."
Wilson's expression changed again, and a look of shame and anger flashed in his eyes.
As a battle-hardened liar, he has already mastered the art of cheating.
The next moment, he put on a smile and said:
"Mr. Sean, I wonder which calligraphy and painting here you like? You can open it and enjoy it at will."
Xiao Ran smiled and shook his head, then said seriously:
"Given the state of preservation of these calligraphy and painting works, it is best not to open them casually to avoid irreparable damage!"
"Not only me, but also the staff of your auction house and other buyers at the scene, it is best not to open these paintings and calligraphy works casually!"
"If the price is right, I will consider taking pictures of these paintings and calligraphy works and take them back to study them slowly!"
"After all, they come from China and are part of Chinese culture. I can't bear to watch them become garbage and be thrown away."
"However, if you open these paintings and calligraphy works without authorization and cause some irreversible damage, I will give up the bidding."
Wilson was stunned for a moment, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Several other professional treasure hunters and buyers nearby, as well as many fans in the live broadcast room, behaved in the same way.
These guys all looked at these Chinese calligraphy and painting works, trying to figure out something.
In their opinion, Xiao Ran must have made a major discovery if he could say these words and value these Chinese paintings and calligraphy works so much.
However, they did not make any new discoveries, and they could not see the value of these paintings and calligraphy works.
Even Mr. Jin and Mr. Qin in the live broadcast room were confused at this time.
The few calligraphy and painting works on display are basically fake at first glance and have little value.
The rest of the calligraphy and painting works are all co-authored or in volumes. It is impossible to see clearly what they are, and it is impossible to judge their authenticity and value.
In this case, it seems that there is only one possibility.
That's because Xiao Ran wants to take a gamble and open a blind box to see if he can find treasures from these poorly preserved calligraphy and painting works!
Another point is that he does not care about the authenticity of these Chinese paintings and calligraphy works.
I just want to take a photo of it at a relatively reasonable price and put it in my own antique store, so as not to be completely ruined by these damn scammers.
When the auction is over, if these Chinese calligraphy and painting works are not sold successfully, they are likely to be disposed of as garbage.
In that case, it would be a pity!
In the blink of an eye, many people in the live broadcast room thought they had figured out the link.
Everyone spoke out one after another to express support for Xiao Ran's actions.
However, some people reminded him to pay attention to the cost and don’t lose money!
Wilson, a liar, and the other guys who were keeping an eye on Xiao Ran also thought of this.
It seems that this is the only way to explain the situation at hand.
Thinking of this, these guys couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Xiao Ran was too lazy to pay attention to them, and continued to move forward with Yi Lian.
In the blink of an eye, they came to another group of lots and began to check the condition of this group of lots.
This is a set of so-called antique violins, six in total.
There are three violins, all in antique cases, two violas, and a cello, all of which seem to be of some age.
Two of the violins installed in the cases were more or less damaged, with obvious signs of wear and tear, and there were many cracks on the panels.
However, their shapes are very beautiful, elegant, and indeed have a bit of ancient meaning.
Seeing this set of antique violins, Elaine couldn't help but pause.
Many fans in the live broadcast room were also a little surprised.
"These die-hard liars are still capable of all decathlons! They accept everything and defraud anyone of their money!"
"Do they know music? They just collected so many big violins!"
Jiutian Yuexingluo said angrily.
Following his words, laughter immediately erupted in the live broadcast room.
