Chapter 1268: Antique shop
In less than half an hour, Ye Tian and the others rushed to the antique shop where Brother Zhang was cheated!
Gatlink, the curator of the Royal Museum of Fine Arts of Belgium, and another expert in the appraisal of antique art from this museum, also came here at the invitation of Ye Tian.
To them, the life and death of a certain antique liar is irrelevant. They want to see with their own eyes whether Ye Tian's process of appraising antique works is as exaggerated as the legend.
Of course, their main purpose is to see if they can extract a little information from Ye Tian's mouth. What secrets are hidden in the building of the Swan Restaurant? Is there really a treasure?
The convoy drove into the street where the antique shop was located. Across the front windshield of the Mercedes-Benz bulletproof SUV, Ye Tian saw the antique shop in front of him at a glance!
This is an old street near the Grand Place in Brussels. The antique shop is located on the first floor of a 17th century old building. The facade facing the street looks antique and has a bit of history!
It's a pity that such a good storefront has fallen into the hands of antique swindlers, and it is a great waste to be used to scam them!
The arrival of Ye Tian and his team immediately caused a commotion at the entrance of this antique shop, and everyone looked at the team.
When the convoy stopped on the side of the road in front of the antique shop, Ye Tian and the others got out of the car and appeared in front of people. This area immediately boiled!
After a brief surprise, many media reporters gathered at the entrance of the antique shop came like a tide. Everyone was scrambling to get ahead and was very excited!
Among them are reporters from the major Chinese media based in Brussels, as well as from many local media in Brussels, as well as from other major media in the world.
Brussels is the headquarters of the European Union and the capital of Europe. It has gathered a large number of media reporters from all over the world all the year round. This time it came in handy and created a lot of momentum.
In addition to many media reporters, there are also seven or eight Belgian police officers on the scene, maintaining order at the scene, with a slightly nervous expression.
There are many onlookers near the entrance of this antique shop, including locals from Brussels and many tourists from all over the world.
Without exception, these melon-eating people are all holding the mentality that watching the fun is not too big, and they are talking about it with joy. On this point, people all over the world are the same and love to join in the fun!
In a blink of an eye, Ye Tian and his party were surrounded by many media reporters, and they couldn't get through.
The footsteps have not yet stood firm. Some media reporters have already raised their own questions. It is a reporter from China, who asked questions in Mandarin.
"Good afternoon, Ye Tian, I am a CCTV reporter. Why did you come to Europe this time? Did you find any famous treasures in Europe? If so, can you give us some details?
What is your relationship with the Mr. Zhang who was deceived in the antique shop? It is understood that you personally identified the blue and white plum bottle as a counterfeit, which is why today's series of things happened. Is that true? "
Ye Tian looked at the CCTV reporter who asked the question, smiled at him and nodded, and then said in Mandarin:
"Dear friends from domestic journalists, good afternoon everyone, I’m Ye Tian, I’m glad to see you in Brussels"
While saying this, he clasped his fists and arched his hands to all the Chinese reporters on the scene. He was very friendly and impeccable.
Soon after, he changed to English and greeted many foreign media reporters at the scene.
After saying hello, he began to answer the question of the CCTV reporter just now, still in plain Mandarin.
"We came to Europe this time just for tourism. By the way, we did a little bit of private affairs, not to explore the treasures in Europe. Of course, I also very much hope to find treasures in Europe and Brussels.
What is the relationship between me and Mr. Zhang who was deceived? Of course there is a relationship. We are all Chinese. We should help each other when we go out. It is impossible for me to watch my compatriots be deceived and remain indifferent!
Yesterday I ran into Mr. Zhang's family during lunch at the Swan Restaurant. Mr. Zhang asked me to help identify the so-called antique porcelain he just bought. When there was time, I helped to identify it.
I have identified that the blue and white plum bottle is not an antique porcelain at all, but a high imitation that has been burnt for a few years, but it is worth a few thousand dollars, which is more than a hundred thousand miles away from the value of antique porcelain! "
Before the words were over, all Chinese reporters on the scene gave Ye Tian a warm applause.
"Papa Papa"
Amidst the waves of applause, there was also a sound of praise.
"Good job, Ye Tian, absolutely can't let those **** liars succeed!"
"Well, Ye Tian, we Chinese tourists are by no means fat sheep. We can let those scammers and thieves slaughter them, and we should expose the ugly faces of those scumbags!"
The applause and praise soon fell, and another reporter from China asked loudly:
"Ye Tian, I'm a reporter from the Phoenix Satellite TV station in Brussels. Why are you here today? Did you come here to testify?"
Ye Tian looked at the beautiful reporter who asked the question, then smiled and said:
"Mr. Zhang called me just now, saying that the antique shop owner who deceived him did not admit it, and he had to have an appraisal conclusion issued by an antique art appraisal expert before he agreed to refund.
That's why I came here. I am very confident about my vision of authenticating antique artworks, and I can never get it wrong. The appraisal conclusion I issued can withstand anyone's questioning and inspection! "
When he said these words, Ye Tian's tone was very firm, decisive, and his eyes showed strong confidence.
Regarding his remarks, no one at the scene doubted at all, and even didn't even think about it.
As a prominent figure in the limelight, on-site media reporters knew him more or less.
Everyone knows that Ye Tian's vision is extremely sharp, and he has almost never seen it when appraising antique artworks, and this time it must be no exception!
Immediately after the Chinese reporter, a foreign reporter asked loudly:
"Good afternoon, Mr. Steven, I am a reporter from The Times, can you talk about the Golden City? I think many people are very concerned about the Golden City-related matters!
As far as I know, in the past week, many professional treasure hunters and adventurers, as well as many large and small exploration companies have poured into Honduras! Go to the ancient city of Copan to find the Golden City!
When will your Brave Fearless Exploration Company start to act? Formally joining the team of treasure hunting exploration, what a tempting treasure it is! I believe your company will not miss this opportunity! "
Not only this foreigner reporter, everyone at the scene, media reporters, many onlookers, and Gatlinck, everyone is very concerned about this question and hopes to hear Ye Tian's answer.
In an instant, everyone looked at Ye Tian, and all the microphones stretched forward again, almost hitting Ye Tian's face, but fortunately Taylor and the others blocked it.
People's eyes are not only hot, full of curiosity and envy, some guys even flashed with jealousy and even greed.
That is the golden city of the Mayan Empire! Hundreds of thousands of treasure legends have been circulated in Central and South America. Who doesn't want to find it? Who doesn't want to own those dazzling gold and silver treasures and antique artworks?
Ye Tian scanned the scene quickly, then smiled and said loudly:
"About the Golden City, the previous press conference held by the Columbia University School of History has made it clear that we have nothing to hide, and everything is very transparent!
If you want to know about the situation related to the Golden City, go back and read the relevant reports of that press conference and check the research results on the golden scepter head of the six-pointed star!
This reporter friend is right, our exploration company will indeed not miss this opportunity to discover the Golden City. I believe that any exploration company with aspirations will not miss this opportunity!
But our Brave Fearless Exploration Company is a company that strictly abides by local laws~www.wuxiaspot.com~ will not do anything illegal. If we want to explore the Golden City, it is also legal.
Only with the permission of the Honduras government or a joint exploration agreement with them, we will organize a team to go to the ancient city of Copan, Honduras, to explore the famous Mayan Empire Golden City.
Here, I want to make an appeal, I hope that those professional treasure hunters and adventurers who have rushed to Copan, Honduras, or are about to rush to explore the Golden City, will try not to destroy the ancient city.
That is the largest site left by the Mayan Empire in the world. It is the most powerful proof of the existence of the Mayan civilization. It is the common wealth of human beings. Anyone with a conscience should not destroy it.
I also hope that those guys will have good luck. Even if they can't find the famous Golden City, they can ensure their own safety. The ancient city of Copan is now in the rainy and hurricane seasons, which is definitely not a good time to hunt for treasures! "
Everyone at the scene was not satisfied with Ye Tian's answer that there was not much dry goods, but they were helpless.
Next, Ye Tian answered a few more questions, and Gatlink also answered two questions. Ye Tian ended the street interview and took Betty and the others into the antique shop in front.
