Chapter 472: Perfect crime plan
Copying Angel's paintings is not painted on another canvas, but using an unknown special paint directly copied on Bacon's "George Dale"!
There is no doubt that this is a very bold and imaginative approach! Even at the risk of completely destroying a classic painting! This attitude alone is enough to be impressive!
What's even more amazing is that this extremely risky method turned out to be a success!
The copied painting completely concealed "George Dale", and there is no flaw in it!
If Ye Tian were not able to see through and see through the falsehood, it would be impossible to discover the hidden Bacon paintings.
In his eyes, the two paints on this canvas are like two skins, with clear boundaries, no one is compatible, just like water and oil, clearly distinguished! Never confuse!
It is conceivable that as long as you take this picture and take it home, you can easily clean the copy of the surface, so that the top famous paintings hidden behind can be seen again.
"What kind of paint is this? It's the perfect disguise material! It's almost impossible to find! Who is this art thief? It's too advanced to play! You can't admire it!"
Ye Tian said to himself with emotion, his eyes full of appreciation! What an eye-opener!
At the same time, he also confirmed one thing.
This art thief must have a very high level of artistic accomplishment. He is probably an amateur painter or even a professional painter. This deceptive copy is probably his masterpiece.
After all, this is a direct copy of the stolen artwork, it is basically impossible to fake someone else!
Even if he didn't do it himself, he had a group of very clever and trustworthy copy masters to help him cover up these stolen famous paintings.
The camouflage of the painting has been done to the extreme, impeccable and perfect!
But how can the buyer be sure that the copy of the painting is the famous painting he wants to buy? Are they not afraid that this is a trap, that there is nothing under the copy, and that they will be ruthlessly cheated?
After all, this is a black market transaction, there is no guarantee at all, and the alarm is even more fantastic!
Unless the buyer has any special methods to see through this layer of paint on the surface and see the real famous paintings underneath, only then can he rest assured and complete this black market art transaction!
Thinking of this, Ye Tian immediately retracted the perspective and turned to look at Leo.
as predicted!
Leo had already put on a pair of glasses at this time and was attentively admiring the paintings on the showcase, with an excited smile on his face, almost cheering!
Without even thinking about it, he used these seemingly ordinary glasses to directly see through the paint on the surface of the painting and see the famous Bacon painting hidden behind his back.
The properties of those special pigments should be similar to those of a certain developer, and under special light, they seem to be completely non-existent.
Now that the target is determined, it is estimated that Leo will transfer the funds soon to complete this black market transaction.
Next, he will bid for the price with a placard to win this top art piece at an extremely low price, and everything will be done without knowing it!
Even during transportation, this copy of the painting on the surface can be used as a cover, and it is easy to fool the security check and the police to arrive in Miami successfully.
Just go back to Miami and everything will be fine!
Leo only needs to carefully wash off the outer layer of paint, and he will be able to harvest a top-quality artwork immediately, without any risk!
"It's so cautious! It's perfect! Admire!"
Ye Tian secretly said with emotion again.
Then, he began to guess the operation of the stolen money, which is the easiest place to show his feet.
With the caution of these art thieves, the bank account that received the stolen money must not be in the United States!
These bank accounts are either in a highly confidential Swiss bank, or in a Caribbean island country, or a tax haven like Liechtenstein, under the name of a leather bag company, which is very difficult to track!
Moreover, after the stolen money arrives in the account, it is likely to be scattered and transferred immediately, and then enter the account of a transnational money laundering group to bleach the stolen money!
After some cleaning and thorough whitewashing, the money will become legal income and enter the numerous bank accounts of art thieves.
From then on, the money can be used in an open manner, and even re-enter the United States!
After walking in such a circle, although the income of the art thieves will be reduced by a large amount, it is very safe to win! Is there anything more important than this?
Besides, no matter how small it is, it is still a very large number. After all, they are completely no-cost trading, and the turnover is all profits!
Although these are all speculations, Ye Tian is sure that he guessed at all times.
No, after Leo wore glasses and admired the paintings for a while, he quickly took off his glasses, took out the laptop he carried with him, and started to get busy. In all likelihood, he was making bank transfers!
The two bodyguards sitting beside him were already on high alert at this time, staring at the surrounding situation vigilantly, which further confirmed Ye Tian's conjecture.
Steal top artworks, secretly contact buyers, cover famous paintings with special paints, find suitable community charity auctions, and then make anonymous donations.
Next, the buyer will inspect the goods in person, make bank transfers, quickly launder money, and finally the grand public auction! Let the buyers leave safely with the famous paintings, and it will end in joy!
Except for the great risks of theft of artworks, the rest can be said to be seamless, without any loopholes, and no traces to be found! The perfect crime plan!
The police and the FBI want to chase these guys, it's absolutely hard to compare to the sky, almost idiotic!
Even if they seized the stolen artwork and caught the buyer, it would be difficult to catch the seller along the way.
It is very likely that the buyer and the seller have never met in the entire transaction process, all communication and communication are carried out by telephone or the Internet, and the payment is also bank transfer.
Buyers don’t even know whether the seller is a male or female, and which city they live in, and the seller is not stupid enough to keep the phone or email used!
How to check this? It is estimated that the police and FBI can't find a clue!
In addition, there are countless charity auctions like today in all parts of the United States, especially during major festivals, there may be many in one city!
If this art thief chooses the auction at random, it cannot be traced at all.
If this guy is smarter and informs the buyer before the auction is about to start, and asks the buyer to go to a certain auction to receive the goods, it will be even more impossible to trace!
Thinking of this, Ye Tian couldn't help but give two thumbs up to these art thieves, and was amazed! He really is a group of criminal geniuses!
I don't know how many famous paintings these guys have sold in this way, I believe it is definitely not one or two, it is likely to be a very huge number!
The scale and quantity of art crime is very large. It is a transnational crime second only to drugs and money laundering. To design such a nearly perfect method of looting, these guys must be the top art thieves!
While sighing secretly, Ye Tian also thought of another point.
The **** Cook didn't know where he got the news. He actually bit these art thieves and wanted to make a fortune for everyone!
I have to say that that **** Cook is very bold and has a bigger appetite! Don't be afraid of being crushed to death!
This **** is also very wise. If he can't catch the tail of the art thief, he will keep an eye on the buyer, maybe he can find a clue.
As long as the transaction is destroyed at the auction and the famous painting is snatched from Leo, the buyer may jump out and ask Cook to settle the account in order to maintain their credibility!
If so, the scene will be lively!
It's just that Leo is more unlucky! Without knowing that I have already become the target of others, not only may I return empty-handed this time, I am afraid that I will have to pay a huge price!
Money is only one aspect. If you can save your life and return to Miami, that's a blessing!
That **** Cook is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp. He can provoke some small African countries to fight a civil war for his own benefit. How could he let go of a large number of top art works close at hand!
He will do everything he can to find these art thieves and take those top artworks as his own. As for the methods used, he will definitely use everything!
Not only is Cook coveting these top artworks, Ye Tian is also very jealous of this huge wealth.
Rich don't make a bastard! How could it be possible to turn a blind eye to such a huge amount of wealth?
Don't let me find any clues. If you find a clue, then all top artworks are mine, all wealth is mine, so don't move anyone!
As for the **** Cook, the idiot Leo, and the art thieves, stay cool! Just laugh if you can leave Boston alive!
Ye Tian made a decision in an instant to participate in this matter and rob this huge wealth.
But he does not intend to compete with this famous Bacon painting with a placard. After all, he has promised Cook that he will not shoot today.
He is ready to start looking for clues from another aspect and use his unique skills!
At the auction site, there must be eyeliners arranged by art thieves, who are watching the whole process of the transaction to ensure the smooth progress of the transaction and report the situation at any time.
They may not be involved in the auction, but they will definitely contact the guy hidden behind the scenes.
As long as this eyeliner takes out his mobile phone and starts contacting, his chance will come.
At that time, you can not only determine who the eyeliner is, and then track it, you can also find out the eyeliner's identity, address and other detailed information through perspective.
You can even find the contact information of the guy behind the scenes. If that's the case, it would be perfect!
The next thing is very simple, under the perspective, these guys will have no secrets at all, that huge wealth will definitely belong to them!
The immediate task now is to find out the eyeliner of the art thieves at the auction site!
After confirming this, Ye Tian immediately retracted his gaze from Leo and was ready to act!
When he retracted his gaze, he glanced at Cook's situation.
as predicted! Cook was like a hungry wolf at this moment, staring closely at the back of Leo's head, his eyes glowing green, extremely excited.
At the same time, he was staring at the oil painting on the display stand, and he couldn't wait.
The battle is about to begin! You fight first, and you guys will join later. Who will be the winner~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The answer will be revealed soon!
After turning his head, Ye Tian immediately whispered:
"Matthew and Fermi, you sit here first. Don't bid for this oil painting. Just watch the show. There is a good show to be staged! I'll go to the door and make a call! I'll be back soon!"
"Okay, you go, we are not interested in this oil painting at all"
Matthew nodded and said, not thinking much at all.
Then Ye Tian got up from his seat and walked quickly to the door.
Behind him, the new auctioneer Boris started to introduce himself with a loud and passionate voice!
Soon, Ye Tian walked to the door.
But he did not go out to make a phone call, but stood at the doorway against the wall, condescendingly monitoring the entire auditorium, preparing to find the eyeliner of the art robber hidden in the crowd.
The auction has begun! A battle filled with gunpowder began!
