The Chinese calligraphy and painting works brought out by the Arnault family are all authentic and all of them are valuable.
Xiao Ran had already determined this when Antoine brought these treasures to the Musée d'Orsay.
However, the performance that needs to be done is still essential, so that it appears more real.
Xiao Ran took out these calligraphy and painting works one by one and quickly appreciated and appraised them. He didn't miss any one, and he showed great concentration.
After reaching an accurate identification conclusion, he shook hands with Antoine and concluded this heavyweight art deal.
Next, he arranged for Liangzi and others to display these Chinese calligraphy and painting works under a high-definition camera, and asked a domestic appraisal team thousands of miles away for appraisal.
He also ordered several other employees to take all the items included in the 32nd group of transaction targets and give them to Antoine!
After getting these Western antiques and gold and silver treasures, Antoine immediately asked several of his appraisers to conduct on-site appraisals!
Needless to say, this set of items is all genuine and each item has a high collection value.
While the appraisal experts from both sides were conducting appraisals, the transaction between Xiao Ran and Antoine was also continuing.
In a short time, Xiao Ran had taken down all the Chinese antiques and artworks brought by Antoine.
Except, of course, there are a few fakes among them.
Antoine got a lot of Western antiques and gold and silver treasures, and his gains were not small.
However, this guy is not satisfied yet.
After completing the last exchange transaction of Chinese and Western antique artworks, Antoine immediately said:
"Sean, didn't you say before that we can spend money to buy some antiques and gold and silver treasures?"
"Now let's talk about this kind of transaction. I would like to buy some more treasures. There are not many good opportunities like this."
Xiao Ran looked at this guy, then smiled and nodded.
"Of course, no problem, Antoine, I have a lot of treasures for sale, and I welcome all forms of transactions."
"To speed up the transaction, I group all the antique art and gold and silver treasures that are ready for public sale, and then sell them in groups."
"Each grouping includes various Western antiques, cultural relics and artworks, as well as a number of gold and silver treasures, and the prices are marked. The quotations are absolutely fair."
"I don't accept haggling or picking and choosing. All groups are sold as a whole, one shot at a time."
"If you can accept this transaction method and conditions, I can recommend two groups to you, which will definitely match your family's collecting taste."
"At this stage, I can only sell to two groups of your family. I also need to consider the needs of other buyers in the future..."
Listening to his introduction, everyone was dumbfounded.
"Wow! Isn't this just packaging and wholesale? It's the first time I've heard of antiques and art being traded like this!"
"Only this guy Sean has a lot of Western antiques and gold and silver treasures for sale, so he can play like this. It would be impossible for anyone else."
Just as everyone was talking about it, Antoine suddenly asked curiously:
"As long as I can buy something that satisfies me, I don't mind what kind of transaction method I use."
“Even if we sell some insignificant things, as long as the most important items are of excellent quality, I can accept it.”
Hearing this, Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
"You are absolutely right, Antoine. In each group, there are some bundled items, mainly gold and silver treasures of relatively low value."
"However, these gold and silver treasures are not handicrafts, but antique cultural relics or works of art with certain collection value, and the pricing is very reasonable."
"As for the sales method of tying, I was inspired by your Arnault family's sales method of selling luxury goods, so I came up with it!"
"When I accompanied Elaine and the others to visit luxury stores before, I often found that some popular luxury goods often require a lot of bundles to buy them."
"So I had an idea and used it here. To a certain extent, antique art is the most valuable luxury product."
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter and everyone laughed.
Looking at Antoine and Alexander again, they were both dumbfounded.
They never expected that their family's bad sales routine would be used here by Xiao Ran, and used on themselves.
After a pause, Antoine nodded helplessly and said:
"I am completely convinced by you, Sean, you are so imaginative and can always do something unexpected!"
"Now I just want to know what is included in the two sets of treasures you plan to sell me, and what is the price?"
"As long as these treasures can impress me, even if they are sold with some worthless gadgets, I can accept it. Of course, the price must be reasonable."
"Okay, Antoine, you'll know the answer soon."
Xiao Ran nodded, then turned to look at Fang Yufei.
"Yufei, bring up the pictures of the 45th and 52nd groups of transaction targets and show them to everyone."
"OK"
Fang Yufei nodded in response and took action immediately.
In a moment, the pictures of these two sets of transaction targets appeared on the large projection screen.
Everyone can see it through the high-definition pictures on the projection screen.
Among these two groups of transaction objects, there are several oil paintings, one or two sculptures, other types of antiques, and some dazzling gold and silver treasures.
While everyone was watching those high-definition pictures, Xiao Ran began to introduce the situation.
"Let me first talk about the situation of the 45th group of transaction targets, which includes a painting by Velázquez, a famous painter from the Baroque period."
"A painting by Daumier, one of the representative painters of realism in the nineteenth century, and a work by the expressionist master Hodler..."
Following his introduction, high-definition pictures corresponding to antique artworks and gold and silver treasures were simultaneously displayed on the projection screen.
Before Xiao Ran could finish the introduction, Antoine and Alexander were already beaming with joy.
The two guys made a quick decision to buy the two sets of transaction targets presented by Xiao Ran.
For these brothers, money is not an issue at all. If they make more flashy luxuries, they will have everything!
These valuable antique works of art are truly unique treasures and of course cannot be missed.
As for the authenticity and value of these antique works of art and gold and silver treasures, they have no doubt.
Not only them, but almost everyone at the scene and in front of countless live broadcasts had the same idea.
At this moment, no one doubted Xiao Ran's vision, and absolutely no one believed that he would stare.
People also believe that he will never play shoddy tricks during the transaction process, which is tantamount to damaging his own brand.
In a short while, Xiao Ran had introduced the two groups of transaction targets and given quotations.
The quotation for Group 45 is 150 million euros, and the quotation for Group 52 is 120 million euros.
And it's a fixed price, no bargaining is accepted.
After hearing these two quotes and knowing that there was no chance of bargaining, Antoine was too lazy to waste any more words.
After just two or three seconds of thinking, he had made his decision.
"Deal, Sean, I want both of the two sets of transaction targets you recommended, and I'll just follow the price you gave me."
Xiao Ran shook hands with this guy, nodded with a smile and said:
"Deal, Antoine, nice working with you"
"You can go and sign the contract with David. After paying the payment, you can leave with all the treasures you bought."
Antoine paused, then nodded.
"Okay, Sean, you are really neat and tidy in doing business, I like it!"
After saying that, he walked towards David.
At the same time, Matthew and the others had already taken action and picked out the treasures included in the transaction targets of Group 45 and Group 52 one by one.
Xiao Ran looked at another top French collector and started the next transaction.
"Paul, now it's your turn, tell me your request? I wonder what Chinese antiques and artworks you have brought?"
