Chapter 1953: Private exhibition
/
Until noon, Ye Tian and the others left St. Paul’s Cathedral and returned to the Ritz Hotel where they were staying.
At this time, at the entrance of the largest banquet hall of the Ritz Hotel, there was already a crowd of people and it was very lively.
Many top collectors, top art dealers, experts in antique art appraisal, representatives from major auction houses, and representatives from many museums from all over the UK and even from around the world have gathered here.
Each of them was excited, and everyone was looking forward to it, waiting for Ye Tian to arrive, waiting for the luxurious banquet hall in front of them to open the door and let everyone enter it.
Around 1:30, a private exhibition of antique art will be held in this banquet hall.
Everyone at the entrance of the banquet hall, without exception, came for this high-level private exhibition.
The antique artworks that will appear in this private exhibition are all from the treasures of the Knights Templar that were discovered the day before yesterday and have caused a sensation in the entire world. Each piece is valuable and rare.
Of course, this does not include those Christian holy relics that have disappeared for at least 700 years, and once discovered they have caused a sensation in the whole world.
Those Christian holy relics are being publicly displayed at St. Paul’s Cathedral at this moment, and they are receiving respect from the believers. They will never appear here!
Even so, the level of this private exhibition is so high that it has almost never appeared in the field of Western antique art collection. It has become the focus of much attention.
For the professionals who have been invited to come, today’s private exhibition is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and definitely not to be missed!
All those invited have also received a lot of videos and pictures. The above is the detailed information about the antiques, gold and silver treasures in this Knights Templar treasure in London.
Through those videos and pictures, these professionals quickly determined their goals, and then came with a checkbook with confidence. Everyone seemed bound to win.
Less than ten minutes away from 1:30, the door of this banquet hall is still closed, and the armed security guards guarding the entrance of the banquet hall with live ammunition still look and look like strangers do not enter.
Not only at the entrance of the banquet hall, around the banquet hall, elevators, and stairwells, almost every place is filled with armed security personnel with live ammunition, and everyone is on high alert.
In the lobby of the hotel downstairs, and Piccadilly Street outside the hotel, there are many London police and soldiers with live ammunition. Three steps one post and five steps one sentry make the atmosphere of the whole street quite tense.
In the eyes of the London police, the two most dangerous places in London are one is St. Paul’s Cathedral where a grand celebration is being held, and the other is the Ritz Hotel.
They don’t want the **** battle that happened in the Temple Church last night to be staged in London again, turning the Ritz Hotel, a short walk from Buckingham Palace, into a hell. Are they cautious?
It was getting closer and closer to 1:30 noon, and the entrance of the banquet hall became more noisy.
"Why hasn't that guy Steven appeared yet? It's too appetizing. I really want to enter the banquet hall immediately and enjoy the antiques from the Middle Ages and even earlier."
"Just now at St. Paul's Cathedral, I saw the guy Steven. He was standing next to the Pope. It was very beautiful. It's really hard to say when he can return to the Ritz Hotel!"
Everyone on the scene talked, everyone was a little anxious.
At this moment, Ye Tianqinglang's voice suddenly came from behind the crowd, and it reached everyone near the entrance of the banquet hall.
"Good noon, ladies and gentlemen, I am Steven. I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Welcome to London, and thank you very much for your cheers. Come to the Ritz Hotel to participate in this private exhibition!"
Hearing this, everyone who gathered at the entrance of the banquet hall waiting to enter it turned their heads and looked at the elevator.
As everyone turned their heads, they saw Ye Tian and David who were walking quickly, as well as several armed security personnel accompanying them.
Seeing Ye Tian and the others arrived, everyone on the scene suddenly beamed their eyes and became even more excited.
"Good noon, Steven, you guys are finally here, if I wait any longer, I should fall asleep. We came from Los Angeles overnight and we didn't even have time to lose the jet lag, so we came to the Ritz Hotel!"
The curator of the Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles said with a smile, the whole person is full of vigor, and there is no way to see the slightest tired look.
Ye Tian stepped forward to shake hands with this old friend, and smiled and said:
"Good noon, James, I am very glad to see you here, welcome to London, welcome to my private exhibition, I hope you can gain something and return with a rewarding experience.
The Paul Getty Museum is one of the richest museums in the world. It has top-notch business jets. You still need jet lag? Wake up to London Heathrow Airport! "
After making a few jokes, Ye Tian greeted several top antique art appraisal experts at the Paul Getty Museum and several other top collectors also from Los Angeles.
After walking a few steps forward, two top British collectors came up again, and one of them asked expectantly:
"Good noon, Steven, I wonder if the Crusader knight equipment of King Edward I and the Earl of Lancaster are still in your hands? If they are, I would like to keep those antique artifacts for myself.
The golden crown of King Edward I, I also want to get it, even at any cost, but I know that it is impossible. The British royal family will never allow the golden crown to fall by! "
It's more than him. Everyone gathered at the entrance of the banquet hall is counted as one. Who doesn't want to buy the priceless treasures that are closely related to the British royal family? No exception!
"唰"
Everyone on the scene looked at Ye Tian, looking forward to his answer to this question.
Ye Tian looked at the top British collector opposite, then glanced at everyone on the scene, then shrugged pretendingly with regret, and said with a smile on his face:
"I'm very sorry, Edward, and other gentlemen. The equipment of the Crusaders of King Edward I and the Earl of Lancaster, as well as the most important golden crown of the Gorse dynasty, may be missed.
Of course, in this private exhibition that is about to begin, everyone can see and appreciate the priceless antiques, but they are not among the antiques that can be traded today.
I have reached a preliminary agreement with the British royal family to exchange those priceless treasures for some fine-quality Chinese antique artworks in the collection. If nothing unexpected happens, this antique art transaction should be successfully concluded.
In case the British royal family cannot meet the conditions I opened, this deal will fall through. I will inform you at that time that friends who are interested in priceless treasures can also trade with me with Chinese antique artworks of equal value."
"Hey! It's out of play!"
There was a sigh at the scene, and a look of disappointment flashed across everyone's face.
"We are not the British royal family. How can there be so many boutique-level Chinese antique artworks~www.wuxiaspot.com~ to trade with you to satisfy your amazing appetite."
Edward said with a wry smile, and his disappointment was beyond words.
While talking, Ye Tian and David had arrived at the door of the banquet hall.
At the same time, Jason and other company employees who were staying in the banquet hall to set up the exhibition had received the news and immediately opened the door of the banquet hall.
As the door of the banquet hall opened, these guys gathered at the door immediately stood on tiptoes, stretched their necks, and began to look into the banquet hall, everyone's eyes were extremely hot.
It is a pity that there is a tall screen erected inside the banquet hall gate. Except for the two sets of security inspection equipment placed on both sides and numerous armed security personnel with guns and live ammunition, everyone did not see anything else.
"Gentlemen, this private exhibition will begin immediately. Please line up and enter in an orderly manner. When entering the banquet hall, everyone must undergo security checks. Please understand and cooperate.
The security matters inside and outside this banquet hall are all taken care of by my security staff. Don’t worry, it’s very safe here. I hope you all have a good time here.”
Ye Tianqinglang's voice came out again and reached the ears of everyone at the scene.
"Papa Papa"
There was a sudden burst of warm applause, and everyone who gathered at the entrance of the banquet hall applauded.
Amidst the applause, Ye Tian nodded to the crowd again, and then led David and the others into the banquet hall.
