Rebirth I can see the success rate

Chapter 55 The Crazy Venus

Two works that are almost the same, one was done independently by Giorgione, and the other was completed by another painter after his death. Which of the two paintings is of higher value is naturally unnecessary Say more.

In fact, it is true.

As the Fang family who hosted the Su family this time, they had already inquired about Su Ningyu and the others.

"Sister Su, we have already inquired about the "Sleeping Venus" at the German Museum of Art. The valuation of it is 100 million pounds, about 800 million yuan!"

"Therefore, many people have judged that as long as this Venus is authentic, the value may exceed 1.6 billion yuan! And this is just a preliminary judgment!"

1.6 billion!

Lin Chen glanced at Su Ningyu, and was not surprised to see her, obviously he had been prepared.

Think about it, the last time the blue and white dragon and Tang grass pattern octagonal bottle, Su Ningyu can buy two billion without blinking. Now this "Sleeping Venus", Su Wuyi gave Su Ningyu The budget must be higher.

Sure enough, Su Ningyu felt Lin Chen's gaze, raised her head and smiled and said, "Don't worry, if 1.6 billion is still within the budget given to me by my grandfather. Giorgione is a Western master oil painter. If I can get his authentic work, my grandfather won't care about the money. It's just..."

Su Ningyu suddenly changed the subject and paused: "Lin Chen, the crux of the problem is whether this painting is authentic or not?"

"Western oil paintings are very deep, and there are countless fakes. Even Nazi Germany has been deceived by others. Now the Chinese people in Western countries are rich, and many fake paintings have been used as authentic pits to deceive us Chinese people. My grandpa That’s how I suffered a few losses."

When Su Ningyu's voice fell, Fang Han said immediately: "Sister Su, don't worry, with the wise man named Brother Lin, Mr. Su will not suffer any more this time!"

Lin Chen nodded and agreed, "Ningyu, leave the identification to me, and ensure that Grandpa Su won't suffer. You only need to concentrate on the auction."

Su Ningyu smiled and didn't say anything. She walked to Lin Chen and started to give him pointers in the auction manual, telling him which auction items Su Wuyi valued, and let Lin Chen identify the authenticity first. .

When pointing, Su Ningyu was only a dozen centimeters away from Lin Chen, and Lin Chen could smell the faint fragrance of her.

The smell was not like perfume, but rather like some kind of body fragrance, which made Lin Chen feel dazed by the smell, and quickly focused his attention on the lots pointed by Su Ningyu.

Su Ningyu's grandfather Su Wuyi's goal this time is mainly focused on those Western oil paintings. As for the famous wines or cultural relics, he has no interest.

Famous wines are only worth collecting. Su Wuyi is old and doesn't drink, so buying it is useless.

Not to mention cultural relics and antiques. Compared with the cultural relics of the dignified celestial kingdom, those cultural relics and antiques of the West are only a few hundred years old at most, and most of them are concentrated on the objects used by some historical celebrities, such as The pocket watch of a certain general, the scepter of a certain king, and those domestic cultural relics and antiques are not on the same level.

Only those oil paintings are treasures that truly transcend national boundaries and are worth cherishing.

Moreover, Westerners attach great importance to oil paintings and cultural relics. In the past, there were even countries that had international disputes over an oil painting.

Su Wuyi's purpose was to snatch these oil paintings from foreigners so that they would be jealous and hateful.

Lin Chen checked the lots pointed by Su Ningyu, calculating one by one in his mind.

I have to say that Su Wuyi's worry is justified, because under Lin Chen's inspection, he found that the lot was fake or real, and most of them were fake.

In recent years, Chinese have become rich and they like to collect art from all over the world. However, many Chinese do not have professional art appreciation skills. This has caused many counterfeit makers to treat the Chinese as being taken advantage of, and specialize in making and selling fakes to China.

And the auction houses are not fidelity to the artworks they auction, which makes many people only consider themselves unlucky after buying fakes.

However, no matter how perfect the fake was, there was nothing to hide in front of Lin Chen's eyes.

Seeing Lin Chen distinguish a few fakes, Su Ningyu smiled.

Just these few fakes will be worth more than hundreds of millions of yuan. If there is competition, their value will be even higher.

These are all things that Su Wuyi wanted to buy. If it weren't for Lin Chen, Su Wuyi would have to pay for it again.

"This one is fake, this is real, this is real, this is fake..."

After more than ten minutes, Su Wuyi's targets were all identified.

"Okay, that's the result. Ningyu, it's up to you now."

Looking away from the manual, Lin Chen rubbed his eyes.

Su Ningyu said with a grateful expression: "Thank you, Lin Chen, let's look at mine next, I will take all the lots that Grandpa wants."

At this time, Fang Han was a little worried: "Sister Su, then your Su family is about to bleed. The competition for that Venus must be fierce. I heard that many overseas collectors have come. A painting is also inevitable."

The "Sleeping Venus" by Giorgione was appraised by Lin Chen and confirmed to be genuine, so it has been targeted by Su Ningyu.

Su Ningyu frowned after hearing Fang Han's words. She knew that Fang Han was right. For that "Sleeping Venus", the auction in the afternoon would probably be a battle.

Time passed, and time soon arrived in the afternoon.

Although the auction did not start until 3 o'clock in the afternoon, after lunch, Lin Chen and Su Ningyu got into Fang Han's car early and hurried towards the auction site together.

Before the start of the auction, the auction company will open the display of auction items to the guests participating in the auction. During this period, the auction participants have the only opportunity to verify the authenticity of the lot.

Although Su Ningyu had Lin Chen to help appraise, she still wanted to see those lots in person.

When they arrived at the auction company, before they even entered, the three people discovered that there was a surprising number of reporters gathered outside the company. These reporters had Chinese faces as well as many white faces.

They gathered outside the auction company to whisper to each other, not knowing what news they were keeping.

Seeing them, Su Ningyu frowned: "Fangzi, what's the matter with these reporters?"

Fang Han replied: "Sister Su, you don’t know. The news of this auction has even been published in local newspapers on Hong Kong Island. Not only domestic, but also many people from overseas have come to Hong Kong Island to participate in the auction. Their purpose is the same. , Just for that "Sleeping Venus"!"

"As for these reporters, I guess they should be waiting for the "Sleeping Venus" auction results to be released. This is the rare big news in the art market recently, and no one will miss it."
