Chapter 459 Master with Psychological Problems

  Li Changheng raised his hand and looked at his watch, 4 minutes had passed since he entered the bathroom.

  If it takes too long, Zhang Tianzhi and the others will definitely come over and check.

   "I don't have much time, so do you say it yourself now, or should I find someone to check you?

  And you have to understand, I want to check you, even people from the French Ministry of the Interior can find it.

   can definitely find out everything you have done in the past two years. "

   "God," Frank grumbled, holding his head, "I shouldn't have come to you."

  But Li Changheng didn’t believe this **** at all, and he still had a faint feeling in his heart that Frank’s goal was likely to go to the auction tomorrow.

  Sure enough, he saw him take out a photo from his jacket pocket.

   handed it to Li Changheng and explained, “This old man is called Billy Turner. He is an art collector, antique dealer, and a less accomplished painter.

  He will definitely appear at the auction tomorrow.

  As long as he quotes, you will follow.

  Furthermore, I guarantee that no matter how high your price is, as long as you buy it, there will be at least 3 times, or even ten times the income.

  If it turns out that I was wrong, I will indemnify you for any loss. "

  Li Changheng glanced at the photo and was startled.

  Because this old man is not well-known in Hollywood, but anyone who likes Theron must have seen him act in a change of heaven.

  And the role is still that of Theron, who took a group of apprentices to steal the Bank of Italy, but was betrayed in the end. He appeared handsome and went to meet God's thief father in 15 minutes.

  He is like in the Hunger Games trilogy.

   By the way, I also acted in celestial movies with Uncle Ge.

  Li Changheng thought silently for a moment, and finally thought of the auction, and immediately thought of the plot.

   And when Frank saw that he didn't speak, he thought that Li Changheng didn't believe in himself.

   hurriedly explained, “In the second month after I entered the Paris School of Art, an old guy named Virgil Oldman came to the school to give a speech.

   didn't care at the time, and by looking at the old guy's eyes and expression, he knew he was arrogant.

  So after listening for a few minutes, I left.

  After reading the magazine, I realized that Virgil is well-known throughout Europe, and it can even be said to be the best appraiser and auctioneer.

  Since this old man is so powerful, I have to stay in college again to avoid being suspected by the English because of the theft of the Bank of England banknotes.

  So, I just wanted to find a way to get close to Virgil, wanting to learn from him the skill of identification. "

  "But it took me half a year to even apply to work at the auction, but I couldn’t touch the old **** who had a weird temper, no matter if he went out in spring or summer, he would inevitably wear gloves when he went out.

  Until the oil painting sale in December of the previous year, I accidentally saw Billy in the auction house, and had a moment of eye contact with Virgil before the auction started.

  Only then began to pay attention to both of them.

  At that auction, Billy took a picture of an oil painting by Virgil who was identified as an 18th-century painter and imitated a master painter, but I didn’t care too much.

  After all, the painting is converted into US dollars, which is only 30,000, which is not a high price in the field of oil painting.

  But in April last year, Billy again took an oil painting that was also a portrait of a woman at an auction.

  Combined with the previous oil painting that also depicts women, this made me understand, there may be clues in it.

  It took more than two months to find all kinds of excuses to ask questions when different staff from the auction house went out for a drink or at a party.

  The final conclusion is that the old fellow Billy has taken at least dozens of oil paintings of all female protagonists in the past two decades.

  And the prices of these paintings are all below 50,000 U.S. dollars, and even several thousand U.S. dollars have been bought.

  If I didn’t have doubts in my heart, it wouldn’t be a problem.

  But since I suspected that Billy and Virgil were conspiring to engage in ghosts, I spent another month investigating, and finally found out that none of the oil paintings had appeared on the market in the past 20 years.

  As a Billy antique dealer, dozens of paintings have not appeared, and there is no record of auction again. There is a high probability that there is a problem.

  As long as you are at the auction tomorrow, **** the oil painting Billy wants to take.

  There may be a rift between them, because of my research on Virgil over the past two years.

  While the old thing is mean and old-fashioned, it also has communication and social barriers for women.

  That’s why I haven’t been married, and I’ve never heard of him dating a girlfriend.

  It is possible to treat the women in the oil paintings as wives or relatives.

  Once the oil painting he valued is not grabbed, this kind of mentally problematic person will definitely be angry with Bill.

  At that time, we will be able to use Bill as a breakthrough point, maybe we can. "

   "Okay, no need to talk about it."

  Li Changheng interrupted Frank. As he listened just now, he had already recalled all the plots.

  And what he knows more than Frank is that he also knows that in the future Billy will put his idea on Virgil.

  Or the oil paintings obtained for Virgil over the years.

  As an antique dealer, even if Billy's appraisal level is not as high as that of Virgil, he is not a fool.

  After more than two decades, dozens of paintings have all entered the hands of Virgil.

  In addition, Virgil's reputation is getting bigger and bigger. Even if he guesses, he can guess that those paintings are definitely not doubled or mispriced at several times the price.

  In addition, even if he himself cannot identify those oil paintings, they are all works by masters or famous painters.

  I have been in this industry for a long time, and I must know that some owners of famous paintings are in their hands, but the value of oil paintings is too high, in order to prevent them from being targeted by the powerful.

   will cover the oil painting with a layer of oil painting for protection.

  Or because the owner died so suddenly, the family did not know that the painting was a treasure, and the protection was not effective.

  Once Virgil was invited to their home for appraisal, the oil paintings covered in dust all the year round, or damaged, could easily be seen by him as his paintings.

  Being imitated by him again to devalue, even after he found fake evidence that could be said to be imitation ~lightnovelpub.net~ other appraisers really dare not doubt his authority.

   Then sent to the auction house for imitation and other reasons, and finally passed Billy's hand, and then became Virgil's collection.

  And even if Billy was stupid, after a long time he knew that he should be fooled by Virgil.

  After all, I helped to do this. When I sent the painting to Virgil, Virgil would definitely give a commission.

  An oil painting sold at auction for 10,000, and Vergil gave Billy twice the final sale price.

  Billy will definitely be very excited at first, and he may even come a few more times.

  But if he has been in the industry for a long time, his appraisal ability has improved to a certain extent.

  One day, I suddenly saw a problem on a certain oil painting and felt that the auction price was 10,000, but when the real price should be 300, 500,000, or even 1 million, anyone would feel that he had received too little.

   Then I don’t even think about living a prosperous life because of Virgil, earning tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.

  The only thought in my heart is that Virgil owes me and must return it.
