Ye Anjin opened his eyes and walked around the exhibition hall. There were windows, and all were equipped with anti-theft nets. The doors were password locked, and there were security guards on duty outside the doors.
With complete anti-theft equipment and 24-hour surveillance, it is said that even if a thief copies the key, it will be difficult to sneak in and replace the painting.
Ye Anjin looked at Ye Tiandao thoughtfully.
"what happened?"
Ye Tiandao was on the verge of collapse. He was very nervous and had an extremely rich imagination. "You, you don't suspect that I deliberately set up difficult problems to test you. We signed the contract first! Oh, you, you suspect that I and the collector are in cahoots. Acting Double act to deceive customers? I swear in the name of Erlang Shen that I will never do that kind of thing that harms others and myself, and our Baode Auction Company has never engaged in black-box operations!"
Ye Anjin was amused by his nervous look, "Er Lang Shen, why don't you do it in the name of Roaring Sky Dog?"
Ye Tiandao was anxious, "Can you still laugh? Oops, it's really going to kill you. Tell me, what should I do? The preview will start soon. I..."
Ye Anjin suppressed his smile and said, "Take this painting down, and then notify the collector that someone has booked it in advance and offered a price that is 50% higher than the starting price, and ask him to come over and negotiate in person whether to trade."
Ye Tiandao was confused, "Huh? No one has made a reservation?"
"I'll talk to him."
Ye Anjin is categorical.
However, a hint of ambiguity flashed in Ye Tiandao's eyes, "Can you explain it to me from beginning to end, and I will consider calling her over?"
"I suspect that she used silicone rubber to copy the key to the main display cabinet. I just noticed that when you opened the cabinet door, you inserted the key into the keyhole and unscrewed the lock. Instead of removing the key directly, you pulled the handle of the cabinet door. Open it and then remove the key. This is the time when she can copy the key. She just needs to stand here when you are not paying attention, cover her arms with her body, and attach the prepared and semi-dry silicone rubber to the key. Just press it once. It's also possible that she took the key and opened the cabinet door herself."
When Ye Anjin said this, he saw Ye Tiandao's eyes flickering, and his suspicion was confirmed, and he couldn't help but laugh.
"Why did she copy the key?" Ye Tiandao's eyes widened in surprise, "You said she replaced the painting?"
"No, she hasn't changed the painting. It's the same one from beginning to end. It's just that the appraiser you hired before was bribed by her in advance, making you believe that this painting is authentic and priceless."
Ye Anjin went to the main display cabinet and used the touch control light button to change the lighting. "Because the forgery of this painting is very sophisticated, it is difficult to see the flaws. But when the lighting changes, the texture of the framed piece of damask is the opposite of the symmetrical one." Orientation, this kind of error does not exist in ancient manual mounting. This painting is not the original mounting, but the overall sense of age reflected in the work is consistent, so this painting is originally a high-end fake. "
"She...she is an old acquaintance of mine. Why did she do this?"
Ye Tiandao couldn't believe it.
"Knowing people, knowing their faces, but not their hearts. Honesty cannot be exchanged for time. Nature is easy to change but hard to change. People with good character start well and end well. People with ulterior motives are as good as they are. No matter how long you have been with her, she will not be sincere to you. Instead, she will treat you with sincerity. He is deliberately scheming against you. This person is either a bold and sinister collector who wants to use Baode's honest platform to auction fakes at high prices; or he is your competitor who deliberately sets up a trap to harm you."
Ye Anjin paused, "I guess you trust this person very much. She has been lurking around you for a long time and knows your preferences and habits very well. You have also auctioned her collection before, and they are all small items, and they are all It was authentic, so this time, you had no doubts and even gave her the key to open the cabinet door and hang the painting.”
Ye Tiandao's whole body was shocked and his eyes were horrified.
"Besides, this is a female collector..."
Ye Anjin didn't speak too clearly.
There must be a story between Ye Tiandao and this female collector.
Sex is confusing to the mind, and power makes the mind faint.
Even though Ye Tiandao's cultivation was good, he still fell into the trap.
A word to wake up the dreamer.
Ye Tiandao stood there, lost in thought.
"Director Ye, you know very well that there is no possibility of rectifying this matter now. If you cover your ears and continue to preview and auction as usual, no matter what the final transaction price is, you will bear the risk of being held accountable; if you go the same way If you return it, she will bite back and say that the genuine product has been replaced by a fake, and you have to bear all the responsibilities and compensate her 90 million. In both cases, in addition to economic losses, the reputation of Baodetang will not be preserved."
Ye Anjin said, "She has a backup plan, that is, if someone buys this fake painting at a high price, and later finds out that there are problems and wants to hold you accountable, and you confront your friend again, she will find a way to hand over the copied key." Give it to the buyer, and then insist that what she gave you was the original product, and it was because of your poor storage or theft that the counterfeit product appeared. At that time, both of you are not human beings, and you will have to bear huge debts, take the blame, and maybe even face a lawsuit. …”
Ye Tiandao's face turned pale, his body swayed, and he leaned against the cabinet door, weakly, "An Jin, thank you... you saved my company and my life..."
Ye Anjin smiled bitterly, "I am your highly paid treasure appraiser, and I have the responsibility and obligation to identify Baode's auction items. But I didn't expect that something like this would happen the first day. You calm down first, and I'll look at other things." Auction."
Ye Tiandao's legs softened and he sat on the steps next to the display cabinet. "You think, is money really that important? She can tell her if she wants money, why would she want to harm me?"
Ye Anjin glanced at him, not wanting to discuss his personal emotional issues with him.
The wages of avarice is death.
Since ancient times, money has been the most effective touchstone for testing human nature.
No one doesn't love money.
Only a gentleman who loves money has the right way to get it, while a villain who loves money and robs, steals, cheats, and greeds it by any means is even better.
It's just a crooked way.
Ye Tiandao's beauty collector is a ruthless man who plays the emotional card.
Cashing out hundreds of millions of assets in one fell swoop destroyed Ye Tiandao's world.
That woman's behavior is very similar to Xie Chenfei's back then.
Ye Anjin looked back at Ye Tiandao, feeling somewhat sympathetic.
Ye Tiandao was extremely frustrated, completely different from his previous high-spirited appearance.
He needs to calm down.
Ye Anjin did not comfort him and carefully inspected the other lots.
Cell phone messages.
"Evergreen": Did the signing go smoothly?
Ye Anjin: Yeah.
"Evergreen": Ye Tiandao, chairman of Baode Company, has a good reputation in the industry and is a diamond king.
Ye Anjin: What then?
"Chang Qing": People's hearts are separated from each other, stay away from him, and he is too old.
Ye Anjin: Oh.
"Chang Qing": You are not allowed to eat with him at noon.
Ye Anjin: I didn’t plan to eat with him at first. I was so greedy for what I had at Haitai Restaurant last time.
"Chang Qing" immediately transferred 20,000 yuan over: "Go and eat."
Ye Anjin confiscated it: "My benefactor will not let me get something for nothing. Let him know that he must scold you."
"Chang Qing": I gave this to you. He doesn't know, so keep it.
Ye Anjin: No, thank you, Uncle Chang. I have to listen to him.
"Evergreen" sent out a rose: It's up to you. Get busy.
Ye Anjin put down his phone and continued to look at the auction items one by one.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
