Hearing that Counselor Wang had arrived, Xiao Ran immediately left the conference room and returned to the presidential suite.
David stayed in the conference room, accompanying the experts and scholars to visit and appraise, and supervising those guys on site.
Prevent them from colluding in private, form a united front, and join forces to deal with Xiao Ran.
Those experts and scholars are all Americans and are very familiar with each other.
Faced with these two priceless top-notch works of art, this possibility still exists, even very big!
Back at the entrance of the presidential suite, Counselor Wang and the others were already here.
When he came to Boston this time, in addition to security personnel, Counselor Wang also brought three staff members from the Cultural Office.
After everyone met, they were naturally polite.
Afterwards, Xiao Ran took Counselor Wang into the presidential suite.
However, he asked his staff to take the staff from the Cultural Department to another room to rest.
Seeing this arrangement, Counselor Wang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
This has never happened before!
No need to ask, Xiao Ran did this for the sake of confidentiality.
What happened next could neither be seen nor heard by others.
Thinking about this, Counselor Wang couldn't help but flash a hint of excitement in his eyes.
After entering the presidential suite, Xiao Ran said politely:
"Uncle Wang, please give me your coat and I will hang it up for you."
Hearing this, Counselor Wang was stunned again.
But he did not refuse, but took off his coat and handed it to Xiao Ran.
After Xiao Ran took the coat, he hung it on the hanger in the hall. Everything was very natural and flawless.
Then, he took Counselor Wang into the living room and said hello to Elaine and the others.
After saying hello and chatting for a while, they walked into the study and started talking about business.
As soon as he sat down on the chair, Counselor Wang smiled and said:
"Xiao Ran, congratulations, you have discovered two more top-notch works of art. This matter has caused a huge sensation."
"Your luck is so incredible. No matter where you go, you can find amazing treasures."
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded, and said proudly:
"It was really a coincidence that I found these two top-notch works of art last night. I'm really lucky."
"I've held a small appreciation meeting in the conference room on the top floor. After the discussion is over, you can go over and enjoy it."
After the words fell, Counselor Wang immediately nodded and responded:
"Titian's paintings and Rodin's sculptures are all top-notch Western works of art. They are so rare. I really want to appreciate them."
"I received an overseas call from the ministry at midnight last night, saying that you were going to use these two top-notch works of art to make a deal with the Americans."
"Use them to exchange for some national treasure-level antiques, artworks or rare ancient books that have been lost overseas. The Ministry will allow us to fully cooperate."
"I wonder which national treasure-level antiques and artworks you are planning to exchange this time? Tell me and let me open my eyes."
"Yes, Uncle Wang, I am indeed prepared to exchange these two top-notch works of art for some national treasures."
Xiao Ran nodded in response.
Next, he briefly introduced his plan, as well as the trading objects and trading goals.
As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and sent a list of trading targets to Counselor Wang.
Looking at the many national treasures on the list, Counselor Wang was stunned and stunned.
His mouth could be opened wide enough to fit a fist into it.
After the shock, Counselor Wang excitedly waved his fist.
"It has to be you, kid! Dare to think and do what you want. If you can exchange these national treasures back, that would be perfect!"
"If you need any help, just ask, the Consulate General in New York and the office in Boston will do their best."
"The Air China cargo plane you requested has arrived at Boston Logan International Airport. You can use it at any time to fly directly from Boston to China."
Xiao Ran nodded and then continued:
"That would be great, once my deal with the Boston Museum of Fine Arts or the Harvard University Museum is completed."
"I will ship all the Chinese antiques and artworks I got in Boston back to China."
Next, Xiao Ran introduced the national treasures found in antique shops such as Liuyunzhai and Bowenxuan, and handed the corresponding list to Counselor Wang.
Since these antique artworks have been lost overseas for decades or hundreds of years, there are also many treasures that are prohibited from circulation and trade, such as heavy bronzes.
In view of this, before transporting these antiques and artworks back to the country, you must report them to the Cultural Relics Bureau to determine the origin of these treasures.
It is most appropriate for such matters to be handled by the Cultural Section of the Consulate General in New York.
Seeing this list, Counselor Wang was shocked again and became even more excited.
Afterwards, they discussed for a while the matter of transporting a large number of national treasure-level antiques and artworks back to China.
During the conversation, Xiao Ran also made a request.
I hope that Counselor Wang will participate in today's transaction, witness it on behalf of the Consulate General in New York, and supervise it.
The reason for doing this is entirely to improve the level of this antique art transaction, just in case!
Having the Consulate General in New York come forward to supervise on-site on behalf of the country will undoubtedly make the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston or the Harvard University Museum a little more wary of playing tricks.
Counselor Wang naturally would not refuse such a good thing and agreed immediately.
The conversation lasted about fifteen minutes and then ended.
When Xiao Ran got up and walked out of the study, he extended an invitation.
"Uncle Wang, let's go to the conference room together. The appreciation meeting is going on. You can appreciate the two top works of art."
However, Counselor Wang shook his head.
"I'll look at those two top Western works of art later. I still have time in the afternoon."
"I have to go to the office in Boston first to deal with some things. I'll come back later."
Hearing this, Xiao Ran had nothing to say.
Then, he sent Counselor Wang out of the presidential suite and into the elevator.
After Counselor Wang and the others left, he went straight to the conference room and continued to communicate with the experts and scholars in the conference room.
After a while, Counselor Wang and the others had left the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
While the vehicle was moving, Counselor Wang quickly touched several pockets of his coat.
When he reached into the inside pocket of his coat, he suddenly paused.
Immediately afterwards, a bright smile appeared on his face.
…
In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour has passed.
In the conference room.
All authentication work on the two top works of art has now been completed.
After careful and careful identification, all identification experts and collectors on site agreed.
The appraisal conclusions given by Xiao Ran for these two top-notch works of art were very accurate and there was no doubt about them.
The "Bathing Venus" mounted on an easel is indeed a masterpiece by Titian, the master of Renaissance art and leader of the Venetian School.
It is a piece of work he made to pay tribute to his idol Giorgione when he was around 20 years old. It is very special and very precious.
What is even more precious is that this "Bathing Venus" clearly shows the process of Titian gradually getting rid of the huge influence of Giorgione and embarking on the path of independent development.
This is a piece of evidence that Titian has embarked on the path of becoming a master, and it is of great significance.
As for the bronze undead sculpture, after being restored to its original shape by Xiao Ran's own hands and adjusted for display, it was already shining brightly.
There is no longer any doubt about the provenance of this bronze undead sculpture.
There is no doubt that this is the masterpiece of Rodin, the famous French sculpture master. It is also very rare and precious.
Everyone agreed and had no objection to the valuation given by Xiao Ran for these two top-notch works of art.
Seeing that everyone had reached a consensus, Xiao Ran immediately clapped his hands.
"Papa"
With two crisp applause, everyone's attention was immediately attracted.
When everyone looked at him, Xiao Ran immediately smiled and said loudly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, since everyone no longer has any questions about these two top-notch works of art, I think we can move to the next step and talk about the transaction!"
After hearing this, everyone at the scene immediately understood!
Someone is going to be killed, and he will be killed severely!
However, today is different from the past.
Representatives from all parties present at the scene all hope that the person being slaughtered today is themselves!
