Rebirth I can see the success rate

Fang Han's words seemed to be a violent wind, instantly dispelling the mist that filled Lin Chen's heart.

At this moment, he suddenly understood why the probability he calculated for that painting was so strange.

Obviously "Sleeping Venus" is indeed the real work of the great painter Giorgione, why is its value far lower than another work painted by Giorgione and with the same theme?

There is only one answer, this painting may have been damaged!

To confirm this answer, Lin Chen immediately calculated: The probability that "Sleeping Venus" has been damaged is...

100%!

But at this moment, Su Ningyu said: "Fangzi, you are wrong. Even if an oil painting is damaged, it will not have much impact on its value as long as it is repaired by experts."

"In fact, Western oil paintings have been aging since they were born. The chemical pigments in oil paintings will gradually volatilize over time. In order to protect these oil paintings, the West later developed professional oil painting restoration techniques. These restoration experts have superb methods. Even if the canvas is damaged, they have a way to restore the oil painting to its original condition, so what you said is not correct."

Su Ningyu has learned oil painting knowledge abroad, and her words are naturally more credible than Fang Han.

However, Fang Han still insisted: "Sister Su, you are wrong. Oil painting restoration is not a panacea. If you can't fix it, the painting will be worthless.

Su Ningyu thought for a while, nodded and said, "You are right."

She turned her head and asked Lin Chen, "How come you suddenly remember to ask this?"

Lin Chen frowned.

Originally, Lin Chen thought he had solved the riddle, but he didn't expect that the conversation between the two of them made Lin Chen even more confused.

Su Ningyu is right. A little damage will not have a big impact on the value of oil painting.

Giorgione is the most famous oil painting master in the 16th century. Even a draft of his work will be invaluable, so even a little damage will not affect the value of this "Sleeping Venus".

But in fact, Lin Chen calculated that the probability that this painting is worth more than 100 million yuan is 0%, which is less than half of what others initially estimated.

And just now, Lin Chen also calculated that the value of this "Sleeping Venus" is because the probability of devaluation due to damage to the oil painting is 100%!

What kind of damage would make the value of this painting such a blow?

There is another point that cannot be explained.

They had seen "Sleeping Venus" with their own eyes before, but at that time, the painting was obviously still good from the outside, and it didn't seem to be damaged at all.

What's more, if there is a real problem, why can't the experts who came to appraise it be invisible?

Thinking of this, Lin Chen asked, "Ningyu, what damage does the oil painting have invisible to the naked eye?"

"Can't see with the naked eye?" Su Ningyu thought for a while, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I can't think of..."

Can't think of it?

Is Su Ningyu not knowledgeable enough, or is there none in this world?

Lin Chen was about to ask, but at this moment, the auction officially began.

An eagle-country auctioneer stood on the auction platform, and after a brief speech, the auction began immediately.

The real auction was completely different from what Lin Chen had seen in movies or novels before.

The eagle countryman who presided over the auction spoke quickly, as if he was in a hurry. After a brief introduction of the lot, the auction opened immediately after the reserve price and the lowest bid were quoted.

A lot will not take up to three minutes to complete.

This auction has a total of hundreds of lots. If it is a slow auction like that shown in movies and TV, I am afraid it will not end until the evening.

Soon, Lin Chen saw that a lot that Su Ningyu originally wanted to win had appeared.

Only at this time, Su Ningyu had made up his mind and wanted to put all the funds on the "Sleeping Venus", so he did not plan to bid.

Upon seeing this, Lin Chen quickly reminded: "Ningyu, buy this lot."

Su Ningyu gave him a strange look and explained: "Lin Chen, Grandpa asked me to focus my funds on "Sleeping Venus", and the rest can be given up..."

"Don't give up, buy them, what you should give up is the "Sleeping Venus"!"

"!" Su Ningyu's eyes widened suddenly, and Fang Han next to him was also curious: "Brother Lin! Did you calculate something?!"

Although he couldn't solve the mystery of the devaluation of "Sleeping Venus", Lin Chen still said, "I have calculated something. There is a problem with that painting."

"There is a problem? Didn't you say that it is authentic?" Su Ningyu asked in shock.

"It's a good original, but that painting is definitely not worthy of Grandpa Su's effort to collect it. I don't know what the specific problem is. Anyway, if you don't want us to come to Hong Kong Island this time, just use the money on other lots. "The Sleeping Venus" we give up."

Lin Chen's suggestion made Su Ningyu hesitate.

I called Su Wuyi before, but the old man gave a thousand warnings, other things are not necessary, but the "Sleeping Venus" must be obtained.

Because Giorgione's "Sleeping Venus" is one of the 100 oil paintings that moved the world.

Therefore, if the old man wants to give foreigners eye medicine, it is most suitable to get this painting.

But Lin Chen's words made Su Ningyu have to think more.

By now, Su Ningyu had 100% trust in Lin Chen, and felt that he had not missed anything, as if he had superpowers.

Since he reminded himself, there must be his reason.

On one side was Grandpa's entrustment, on the other side was Lin Chen's reminder.

Whom should she listen to?

After thinking about it, Su Ningyu finally decided to believe in Lin Chen.

"Six million dollars once, six million dollars twice..."

At just this time, the eagle countryman on the stage was about to end the auction and took the oil painting that Su Ningyu liked to a foreigner.

Su Ningyu immediately raised the sign at this moment.

"Eight million!"

The foreigner who was already preparing to celebrate was suddenly startled, and looked at Su Ningyu with a faint look.

"Eight million dollars once, eight million dollars twice...a deal!"

The Eagle Country auctioneer made a final decision and sold the lot to Su Ningyu.

This is just a small business of 8 million dollars, and most of the people present, except for the few participating in the competition, didn't care much.

However, in the distance, Li Tiancheng, who was chatting and laughing with people around him, turned his head and glanced at Su Ningyu, with a little surprise on his face.

Li Tiancheng called a bodyguard and whispered a few words in his ear.

Immediately afterwards, I saw this bodyguard walking towards Lin Chen and the others.

"Miss Su."

The bodyguard whispered: "Our young master asks you, why do you waste money on this garbage?"

Su Ningyu looked at him coldly: "Tell you Master, I don't need to take care of my affairs!"

The bodyguard ignored him, and continued: "Miss Su, our young master also said that he asked you to save some money, otherwise you can't compete with him for a while. He rarely comes to an auction. If no one competes with him for a while, he will It feels too boring."

After saying this, Li Tiancheng's bodyguard immediately turned and left.

"Damn! This street is so arrogant! Sister Su, let's ignore him! Since Brother Lin said that there is a problem with the painting, there must be a problem. When the truth is exposed, there will be a time when the kid will cry!" Fang Han said.

Su Ningyu nodded.

Lin Chen glanced at Li Tiancheng, just to see Li Tiancheng also looking at them.

Li Tiancheng's gaze first fell on Su Ningyu. Seeing that she was not paying attention to herself, he was about to withdraw his gaze, but it happened to cross Lin Chen's gaze.

A contemptuous smile appeared on his face, he gave a cold snort and turned his head.

"Ningyu, do you have to prove that you have so much money every time you bid at the auction?" Lin Chen suddenly turned around and asked Su Ningyu.

There was no beginning or end to this question, Su Ningyu was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Lin Chen meant.

"No, as long as the payment can be made after the auction is over, but we need to pay a deposit of 5 million Hong Kong dollars in advance to participate in the auction. If the auction fails to come up with that much money, the money will be seized."

"In this case……"

A bad idea suddenly appeared in Lin Chen's mind: "Ningyu, should we cheat Li Tiancheng?"
