Chapter 666 Strange Goods Can Be Living (1)

"Of course, I think any collector in Paris at this moment is willing to date Mr. Zhuang..." Ezkena nodded and could have six sketches of Picasso. I'm sure that all those who like Picasso's works are willing to make friends with Zhuang Rui.

Hearing the boss's words, Sterling was so excited at this time that he could only suppress himself. He wanted to appreciate Picasso's works again, but he was put away by Peng Fei's hands and feet, and with a thief-proof look, he was so depressed that Sterling almost left.

However, Sterling does not have this kind of self. In the collection market where sellers are king, especially in the high-end market of top art, no one is short of money. If you want others to sell your favorite works of art, it depends on whether you are sincere.

"Dear Zhuang, I want to know if you called us today to sell these Picasso's works?"

After Ezkenna's little eyes turned around, he began to slowly lean towards the theme. The reason why he asked this was to take the lead in the negotiation, so that Zhuang Rui subconsciously thought that he wanted to sell, not buy it himself, which was also a small trick for negotiation.

"For sale?"

No, no, no, Mr. Ezkenna, you misunderstood. I never thought of selling these precious Picasso works. I don't have them now, and I will never have them in the future..." When Zhuang Rui heard Ezkenna's words, with a faint smile on his face, waved his hand repeatedly, said several words, and firmly denied Ezkena's words.

Although Zhuang Rui's money has greatly shrunk since he bought a private jet, he has never thought of selling Picasso's paintings, and has never even thought of selling any of his collections.

In the current international art market, whether it is Picasso's works or his own collections, they are absolutely priceless. Unless some penniless people have no way out, no one wants to exchange Picasso's works for money.

"Don't sell it?"

Ezkenna was stunned for a moment. After looking at the Huangpu cloud beside him, he said to Zhuang Rui, "Dear Zhuang, what do you mean by asking us to come today? Is it just for us to enjoy Mr. Picasso's work?

Ezkena is also a pivotal figure in the British collection circle. He doesn't think he gave up an important dinner just to take a look at Picasso's works, so it's better to go to the Louvre.

"Mr. Ezkenna speaks Chinese very well..."

Zhuang Rui did not accept Ezekenna's words, but praised his Chinese proficiency. Ezekenna nodded gentlemanly and waited for Zhuang Rui's next sentence.

"Mr. Ezkenna must also know our country's culture very well. In our country, collectors rarely use money to buy his favorite collections, and more importantly, exchange with each other in their own collection area. In this way, both sides can get their favorite collections, Mr. Ezkena, I think you should understand what I mean, right?

In fact, it is barter. It is not only the patent of Chinese Tibetan friends, but also very popular in the world. As soon as Ezkena heard Zhuang Rui's words, he immediately reacted. He fully understood Zhuang Rui's idea.

"Of course, I think any collector in Paris at this moment is willing to associate with Mr. Zhuang..." Ezkenna nodded and could have six sketches of Picasso. I'm sure that all those who like Picasso's works are willing to make friends with Zhuang Rui. Hearing the boss's words, Sterling was so excited at this time that he could only suppress himself. He wanted to appreciate Picasso's works again, but he was put away by Peng Fei's hands and feet, and with a thief-proof look, he was so depressed that Sterling almost ran away. However, Sterling does not have this kind of self. In the collection market where sellers are king, especially in the high-end market of top art, no one is short of money. If you want others to sell your favorite works of art, it depends on whether you are sincere.

"For sale?" No, no, no, Mr. Ezkenna, you misunderstood. I never thought of selling these precious Picasso works. I don't have them now, and I will never have them in the future..." When Zhuang Rui heard Ezkenna's words, with a faint smile on his face, waved his hand and said several words, and firmly denied Ezi in a Kenna's words.

However, Ezkenna's eyebrows were only wrinkled. The occurrence of the barter transaction is mostly out of the proposed party, which valued a certain object of the other party, and then took out its best thing to exchange with it. Generally speaking, it was the first party to propose and suffered a small loss.

But the current situation is that Zhuang Rui doesn't even know what collection he has, so he dares to propose a bar-for-thing exchange method. It is clear that he relies on the Picasso's sketch manuscripts in his hand. If he can't bring out the antiques that satisfy the other party, I'm afraid this transaction will be yellow.

But Ezkenna really cares about the Picasso sketches in Zhuang Rui's hand. As a favorite, whether he can become a world-class collector, whether there are Picasso or Van Gogh's works in his collection is an extremely important symbol.

The heritage of the Ezkenazi family is nothing more than a large number of antique cultural relics looted from China in those years, but it has not collected much art from Europe and the United States. Ezkenazi wants to get the affirmation of international collectors that it is far from enough to have antiques from China.

"Mr. Zhuang, I think I understand what you mean, but my collection is in London, and there is really no way to choose for you now..." Ezkener's mentality is very correct. The preciousness of his collection is not necessarily lower than Picasso's works, but things are rare and exiled abroad. There are tens of thousands of Chinese cultural relics, but Picasso's works are only tens of thousands of pieces coming and going, and most of them have been collected by the world and museums. Even if you occasionally see such a picture in the auction market, it will soon be sold away at a high price.

Ezkener knows that he is lucky to see these six sketches, and he must not use its market circulation price to measure the value.

Ezkener knows that he is lucky to see these six sketches, and he can never use its market price to measure the value.

Wife 20:49:06 "Everything is in London?" When Zhuang Rui heard the words, he gently knocked on the table with his fingers. To be honest, he didn't want to deal with privately, because merchants were profit-seeking. When they exchanged collections, they would definitely measure the value of the two objects at a price, which could not maximize their own interests. What Zhuang Rui wants most is to exchange with museums. There are many precious Chinese cultural relics in many museums abroad, but they must love the latter more than Picasso's works. After all, including many private museums, most of the things in the museum are not private. If you want to donate or exchange the museum's things for sale, you need the consent of the museum's board of directors, but Zhuang Rui believes that those foreigners will definitely agree to exchange Chinese antiques for Picasso's works. Since everything is not its own, there is no saying that the value is equal. In this way, the operation space will be much larger, and Zhuang Rui can get more of what he wants. "Mr. Zhuang, if you have time to go to London, I think my collection can satisfy you..." Ezkenna really wants to get these Picasso sketches, and he doesn't want these things to flow into the auction house, because Ezkenna knows that the price of Picasso's works has soared in recent years. For these sketches, the price may be above tens of millions of dollars. Moreover, once these works are auctioned, many things will be involuntarily, and Ezkena can't control the situation. If an international collector competes with him, I'm afraid that he will definitely spend more money than he thought.

"Well, Mr. Ezekenna, your sincerity has moved me. Well, I will take a private plane to London in three days, but before that, I would like to ask you to make a list of the best collections you have and mark them for me to see if we are There is a possibility of trading..."

Zhuang Rui thought for a moment. Anyway, he is going to London, and it is simple to barter, but the operation is also very complicated. It must not be handled well in three or five days. That is to say, this batch of Picasso's works will definitely stay in his hands for a period of time, and it's okay to go to London to

And Zhuang Rui also put forward such a condition that he had to know what collections Ezkenna had first. If he was not satisfied with it, the transaction would naturally be unnegotiable.

Anyway, Zhuang Rui is not afraid that these Picasso's works can't be sold. As long as he releases the wind, not to mention those private collectors, I'm afraid that the auction house alone can trample on the threshold of the hotel.

"Okay, dear Zhuang, I'll fax the list to you when I get back. I think you will be satisfied..."

When Ezkenna saw that Zhuang Rui had issued an eviction order, he stood up one by one. After shaking hands with Zhuang Rui, he handed Zhuang Rui a business card, and then took the unfinished Mr. Sterling to say goodbye. He had already said that what should be said. Whether the transaction can be completed depends on what he took out. Can

Ezkenna is still very confident about this. Most of his collections are Chinese porcelain, and they are also official kilns of the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, which are extremely rare in the international market. If Zhuang Rui is a nationalist, he will definitely be interested in the objects he took out.

"Brother Zhuang, these things drawn with pencils are all antiques?"

When Ezkena and Huang Puyun and others left, Peng Fei picked up a sketch and looked at it. He could understand English and knew that the two foreigners just now attached great importance to this painting.

However, Peng Fei looked at it for a long time, and he couldn't see a good one no matter how he looked at it. He wanted to see a woman with bare buttocks. This French TV station has an adult channel, which is much better than this painting. It's still an adult action movie.

"Hey, boy, how fresh your question is. Didn't someone come to send you money for antiques?"

Zhuang Rui laughed when he heard the words. After carefully putting away the sketches, he then said to Peng Fei, "Keep these things carefully. Maybe you can exchange them for a few treasures such as "fixing lights" and so on. Be sure to keep them..."

"The fixed lightsaber?"

Peng Fei was shocked by what Zhuang Rui said. He quickly picked up the sketches handed over by Zhuang Rui with both hands and muttered in his heart that these paintings did not look much better than those children in his girlfriend's school.

"Zhuang Rui, it's faxed here. Come and get it..."

Qin Xuanbing's voice suddenly sounded in the room. Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment. The efficiency of Ezkena was really fast. Just half an hour later, he actually sorted out the antique catalogue.

Chapter 637 Strange Goods Can Be Living (II)

How did Zhuang Rui know that Ezkenna was afraid that Zhuang Rui would find a buyer again, so he hurriedly sorted out the best Chinese antiques on hand and faxed them to Zhuang Rui.

The six Picasso sketches in Zhuang Rui's hand must be heavier than the Chinese antiques collected by Ezkenah now, which are heavier in his heart. Whether Zhuang Rui agrees to exchange or not, Ezkenna has listed the most valuable objects in his hand, and there is no hidden at all. Private.

"Southern Song Dynasty official kiln pen washing..."

"Song Jun kiln, kiln into a bowl?!"

"Northern Song Dynasty, Dingyao pattern flat plate...

"Northern Song Dynasty, Dingyao plum bottle?"

"No blue and white, fish bath pattern big jar..."

"Changhua Doucai Yaozi Can, Southern Song Dynasty, Longquan Kiln..."

"Wanli colorful bottle..."

"No blue and white "Ghost Valley down the mountain" picture can..."

Holding the fax paper in his hand, Zhuang Rui's body couldn't help shaking, especially the right hand holding the paper, which trembled obviously. Peng Fei and Qin Xuanbing looked at it, and their eyes widened inexplicably.

"Zhuang Rui, Brother Zhuang, you... What's the matter?"

Qin Xuanbing and Peng Fei asked in one voice, which made Zhuang Rui, who was in a state of wandering, suddenly excited and woke up.

"No...nothing, you two don't talk, let me be quiet..."

Zhuang Rui couldn't believe it and took another look at the words on this fax paper. Yes, he didn't look at it. There were indeed two pieces of Yuanqinghua, two pieces of Songding kiln porcelain, and there was also a jun kiln porcelain that had changed into a kiln. Did Ezkenna dig the porcelain

There are three porcelains on this fax paper of the five famous kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the kiln is still the porcelain that has been transformed into a kiln, which is far more valuable than ordinary Jun kiln utensils.

You should know that when the ancients burned kilns, they were more superstitious about the understanding of turning kiln into porcelain. For example, Qingbo Magazine said: "In Jingdezhen, Raozhou, there are kiln changes in the Grand View, and the color is as red as cinnabar, and the things are abnormal

Generally, when kiln workers see kiln porcelain, most of them have been destroyed, so there are very few kiln porcelain that has been handed down to this day, and the kiln porcelain from Jun kiln is even more rare.

Dingyao porcelain does not need to be introduced. It is well known to the world. Dingyao porcelain, which is mainly made of white porcelain, is covered with high-temperature color glaze on the white porcelain tire. In the later stage, black glaze, sauce glaze and green glaze are fired. The literature is called "black ding",

"Zi Ding" and "Green Ding" are famous all over the world.

The kinds of porcelain mentioned above are rare in China. Sometimes it's good to see a piece of porcelain, and on Ezkenna's list, there are several casually written. Zhuang Rui believes that this will never be all the old background of Ezkenna.

Chang Rui was a little surprised by these pieces of porcelain of famous Song kilns, so the two pieces of Yuan blue and white porcelain shocked Zhuang Rui. Although there were few porcelain in the Song Dynasty, they were still sometimes seen in major foreign museums, but the Yuan blue and white porcelain was different. It was really rare and rare.

Especially the last one listed on the fax list, the Yuan Qinghua Guiguzi down the mountain. As far as Zhuang Rui knows, there are absolutely no more than 10 pieces of Yuan Qinghua porcelain with the theme of character stories in this world. Of course, these pieces have been unearthed and verified.

What only makes the Chinese people sad is that the "Zhaojun out of the plug" jar in the Deguang Art Museum in Tokyo, the "Sangu Maolu" jar in the Pei Gesers Foundation, the "Zhou Yafutun Xiliuying" jar in the old collection of the Anzhai Art Museum, the "Yu Chigong Savior None of the original blue and white porcelain such as the "Baihua Pavilion" cans in the Wanye Art Museum are in the hands of the Chinese.

"Take it down, be sure to take down the Yuanqinghua Guiguzi down the mountain picture can!"

Zhuang Rui has a voice in his heart, roaring loudly. Although the price of Yuan Qinghua has soared in recent years, and there is no lack of speculation from foreign speculators, Yuan Qinghua is rare, which is also a real thing.

At least Zhuang Rui has not found a real Yuan blue and white porcelain in major museums in China, most of which were imitated after the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Now he has the opportunity to get a Yuan blue and white porcelain. Zhuang Rui is already very excited.

"Phone, where is the business card left by Ezkener just now?"

Zhuang Rui came to his senses and rummaged through it on the coffee table. Even if Zhuang Rui asked Zhuang Rui to take out all the Picasso sketches and exchange them for this ghost valley yuan blue and white with Ezkena, Zhuang Rui was willing.

......

"Brother, have you received the fax sent to you by Ezkenna?"

Just as Zhuang Rui found Ezkenna's business card and was about to call him anxiously, Huang Fuyun's phone number reached his mobile phone.

"Received, Brother Huangfu, let me tell you that Ezkenna actually has two pieces of yuan blue and white, yes, two pieces!

"

Zhuang Rui was afraid that Huang Fuyun would not believe it, so he deliberately aggravated his tone on the phone. As long as he played with porcelain, he knew the status of Yuan Qinghua in the eyes of the Chinese people, which represented the highest artistic level of an invincible dynasty that swept Europe.

"Brother, don't be excited. I also received a copy of the fax sent to you by Ezkenna. I have read the list of things listed above..."

Huangfuyun's voice is much calmer than Zhuang Rui's. No wonder that no matter how good the thing is, it can't reach his hands. As the saying goes, it's none of his business.

"Huang Fuyun, change that Guiguziyuan blue and white, what conditions do you need for him to put forward..."

Zhuang Rui said bluntly that as long as the yuan blue and white on the list is real, Zhuang Rui is willing to pay any price. Even if he sells the private plane that has just arrived, he is willing to.

"Brother, calm down, calm down..."

"Danding is a sister, I want to see if the Yuan Qinghua is real or not now!"

Zhuang Rui replied on the phone angrily. He was almost in pain. Can he stop it?

After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Huang Fuyun laughed and said, "Brother, you are a fan of the authorities. Do you know why I called you?"

"How do I know?"

Zhuang Rui replied angrily, but he immediately reacted and said, "Brother Huangfu, it's not Ezkena who asked you to be a lobbyist, right?"

Zhuang Rui was really anxious when he saw the Guiguzi blue and white porcelain jar just now. Now that he calmed down, his mind is suddenly clearer. The Yuan Qinghua is certainly good, but Picasso's works in his hand are not nameless objects, and the value is also not low.

"Hey hey, you're right. Ezkenna was afraid that you would sell Picasso's paintings to others, so he specially told me to tell you that his collections are definitely real Chinese porcelain. He expects you to see things in London before deciding the destination of Picasso's works..."

Sure enough, what Huang Fuyun said later was similar to Zhuang Rui's idea. As soon as he went back from Ezkenna, he didn't even take a breath, so he sent a fax to himself. It can be seen that his thirst for Picasso's works is probably more than his desire to get Yuan Qinghua.

Zhuang Rui calmed down and said, "Brother Huangfu, you see... What should I do? Use those six Picasso sketches to exchange for that Guiguziyuan blue and white?

"Why? Why do you take six paintings for a piece of porcelain? Brother, let me tell you, just open your mouth, exchange a sketch for a piece of porcelain, and kill the old boy..."

Huang Fuyun's shout came from the opposite side of the phone. He was more ruthless than Zhuang Rui. Anyway, there has been no auction of Picasso's works for several years. The objects in Zhuang Rui's hand are absolutely strange goods to live in.

Zhuang Rui nodded and said right, "Okay, then do as you said. I won't reply to him first. Let's talk about it first. By the way, I still have more than 20 sketches here. Please introduce some more people to me..."

Hearing Huang Fuyun's analysis, Zhuang Rui also knew the weight of these sketches in his hand, and he was not in a hurry at the moment. He was ready to wait until he saw those porcelain objects before bargaining with Ezkena.

It's just that Zhuang Rui and Huang Fuyun didn't know that if it hadn't been for Zhuang Rui's intervention, Ezkenna would have staged a selfie-purchased show at the auction of "Chinese Ceramics, Fine Crafts and Export Crafts" held at Christie's in London in London.

In order to increase the market value of Yuanqinghua, Ezkena paid a handling fee of more than 1 million pounds in advance, and fired a sky-high price of 230 million RMB in the Yuanqinghua of the ghost valley down the mountain, setting the highest auction record of Chinese art in the world at that time.

But now things have changed a little, because Zhuang Rui fell in love with this Guiguzi yuan blue and white porcelain, and the subsequent sky-high auction still went on, but the auction was not this yuan green flower, and in a sense, Ezkenna also helped Zhuang Rui make a wedding dress.

Of course, these are all later words, which will be expressed by everyone in the later article.

"Ok, tomorrow I'll take the honorary curator of the Jimei Museum to your place to see the paintings. Oh, by the way, your boy, tell your buddy, how many authentic Picasso's do you have?"

Huang Fuyun couldn't hide his curiosity. He just saw Sterling's identification of Zhuang Rui's paintings as authentic. Let's not comment on Sterling's character, but his identification of the waterwheel is still quite famous in the European art world.

"Hey hey, not counting those six, there are still twenty-two. How about it? Can you fool some people?"

Zhuang Rui laughed proudly on the phone. In the past, on Taobao in China, it was called nest horizontal. Even if he found the treasure, Zhuang Rui was not particularly comfortable in his heart, especially his first bucket of gold, the manuscript, until now Zhuang Rui still feels guilty about the old lady.

However, for the foreigner, Zhuang Rui had no burden at all, so he almost sang a big knife and cut it on the heads of the foreign devils.
