Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 566 Famous paintings are always stolen

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the company meeting room.

Ye Tian's voice kept coming, and the video material was being played on the white projection screen. The content was naturally the many stolen antique works of art hidden in the underground of the Old North Church.

In addition to the seven people in the morning, there were more than 20 new faces in the meeting room at this time.

Among them are the directors or deputy directors of major museums, several famous collectors, and top art brokers, all of whom are well-known figures in the field of antique art collection.

In addition, representatives of several famous art insurance companies, such as AXA and Chubb, have also been present!

There is also Joey, the head of the FBI Art Crime Unit, and an FBI deputy director from Washington.

The rest were Ye Tian, ​​David and his two assistants, Jason and Mathis.

During the playback of the video materials, the discussions in the conference room never stopped, and they continued to reach everyone's ears.

"Oh my god! These art thieves are really crazy. It's unbelievable that they have looted so many top-level antique works of art!"

"According to the old fellow Julian, this is just a part of it. There are still a large number of stolen antiques in the hands of the gang of art thieves, all of which are top-notch!

The targets of those bastards are not limited to major museums in the United States. They have traveled almost all over the world. They are the top art crime group in the world today!

I'm sure that once these bastards are caught, it will cause a sensation in the whole world, and the field of antique art collection will bear the brunt of it. A huge tsunami is inevitable! "

"This group of art thieves is certainly crazy, but this bastard Steven is even more hateful! This bastard actually wants to steal half of the top antique art, and he is not afraid of choking to death!"

Speaking of this, many people turned their heads to look at Ye Tian, ​​everyone's face was very ugly, and they gritted their teeth in hatred!

But Ye Tian, ​​who was the person involved, smiled at this time, and chatted with David sitting beside him in a low voice, completely ignoring the hostile eyes of everyone.

Ye Tian and the others are very excited, success is close at hand!

However, there were happier people on the scene, and that was Joey and the deputy director of the FBI.

The two of them were already excited at this time, so excited that they were almost crazy,

If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, they would have raised their arms and cheered and celebrated wildly!

They never expected that they could see this scene, seeing so many heavyweight museum curators, famous collectors, and top art dealers!

The scale of the international art crime group in Boston and the number of top-level antique art stolen are completely beyond the limit of their imagination!

If this top art criminal group is destroyed in his own hands, what kind of situation will it be? Thinking about it makes people crazy!

Several executives of the art insurance company were also very excited. The huge compensation they thought was in vain is now expected to be recovered. Can you not be happy?

But when they thought of paying a huge reward and being ransacked by that bastard Steven, they couldn't be happier again!

What a fortune that was! Who can give up?

Ten minutes passed quickly, and all the video materials related to everyone present had been played.

Jason put away the laptop and put it in front of Ye Tian.

Negotiations restart! It's time for close combat!

Someone couldn't wait to speak out, it was the curator of the New Gallery in New York, and he was also an old friend!

"Steven, thank you very much for finding the whereabouts of these stolen antique works of art, this is the luck of all of us, and the luck of the stolen antique works of art.

But thank you, thank you, we will never agree to your conditions, you want to get 50% of the stolen antique art, this appetite is too big? Absurd! "

"That's right! That's impossible! You know, there is a high reward for every piece of stolen top antique art, which is already a very huge fortune, and you can't be too greedy!"

The curator of the Art Institute of Chicago agreed, with a rather ugly expression on his face.

If you want to get cheap from your buddies, there is no way!

No one can get accurate information about anything, let alone find the stolen top-notch antique art, without paying a price that pleases the buddies.

Ye Tian smiled softly, and immediately launched a counterattack.

"Gentlemen, take a long-term view and don't just stare at the stolen antique artworks in front of you. As far as I know, there are not a few top-level antique artworks flowing out of the gang of art thieves!

After a careful search, I found a sales record in that warehouse, which recorded all the top-level antique art stolen from those bastards in the past few decades, in great detail!

I made a rough count, and the number of stolen antique artworks that have been sold out on that list far exceeds that currently hidden in the warehouse, even as much as twice as much.”

Before the voice fell, the meeting room immediately exploded

"Oh my god! There's still a sales record, that's great!"

The first to jump up and cheer were FBI's Joey and the deputy director. The two were so excited that they were almost crazy.

If this record of stolen goods does exist, they know what it means better than anyone else.

That means countless thefts of top antique artworks, an astonishingly large amount of wealth, and many famous collectors who are about to be discredited!

"Does this mean that we can recover the same batch of stolen antique artworks? Even antique artworks stolen at other times, if so, it would be perfect!"

The curator of the Philadelphia Museum of Art sprang up from his seat, cheering wistfully.

In 1999, their museum was stolen, and five top-level antique artworks were stolen, but this time he only saw two on the video data, and the remaining three disappeared at all.

At this time, he suddenly heard that there was a list of stolen goods, which recorded all the records of the stolen goods of those art thieves. How could he not be overjoyed?

The reactions of other people in the conference room were almost exactly the same. Everyone's faces were flushed with excitement, their eyes were shining, and they cheered endlessly!

This kind of reaction is right, this is what buddies want to see most!

Ye Tian stretched out his hands and pressed down, signaling for everyone to be quiet and control their emotions.

The meeting room quickly fell silent, and everyone looked at Ye Tian with full expectation, expecting to hear more shocking content.

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued with a smile:

"There is such a famous saying in the collection industry that 'famous paintings are always stolen', I believe that the antique works of art stolen from various museums and collectors are not limited to the few pieces shown in the video.

As long as you get this record of stolen goods, you can find a large number of stolen antiques and artworks. At that time, everyone will gain more than what you saw in the video, and there must be more!

I have no covetous desire for the stolen antique works of art on the list of stolen goods. Everyone only needs to pay the reward. The target of my request is only the existing goods in that warehouse.

In this way, your chances of recovering the stolen antique art will be greatly increased, possibly as high as 70% to 80%, or even higher. In comparison, is my offer too much? "

Hearing this, some people can't help but start thinking secretly.

From this point of view, the conditions offered by the bastard Steven are not unacceptable. Overall, the share ratio has indeed been reduced a lot.

Especially those museum directors who have stolen a lot of antiques and haven't seen many of them on the video, they are already inclined to agree to Ye Tian's conditions in their hearts!

There are also several senior executives of the insurance company. In their opinion, as long as the stolen goods list is true, they can agree to the conditions of the bastard Steven.

This price can be borne by our company, and this loss may not be borne by the insurance company. The gang of art thieves and immoral collectors who collect stolen goods should bear the cost the most!

Of course, there are also some doubts in everyone's eyes.

Is there really such a list of stolen goods? Don't let the bastard Steven invent it, it's just to increase the weight of the lion's mouth!

"Perhaps you think that what I said is groundless and may not be credible, so I will present strong evidence. The latest sale of stolen goods on the list is "George Dale" by the famous British painter Francis Bacon.

If I'm not mistaken, the unscrupulous collector who bought the painting, as well as the painting itself, have fallen into the hands of the FBI's Art Crime Unit, am I right? Joey! "

After speaking, Ye Tian turned his head to look at Joey, his eyes full of confidence.

Damn bastard! So you know everything!

Joey cursed secretly, then nodded and gave an affirmative answer.

"That's right! We did catch this immoral collector in Boston, and we also seized Francis Bacon's famous painting, which was "George Dale" that was stolen in London a few years ago.

Following this clue, we conducted an in-depth and meticulous investigation, but unfortunately, these art thieves are well-organized and clever, and they hide too deeply, and we have not found their traces.

Regarding the identity information of this unscrupulous collector who collected the stolen goods, we are temporarily inconvenient to disclose, but we can tell you about the Francis Bacon painting.

The famous painting was camouflaged with special paint, and no trace of the original work can be seen from the outside. You must use special glasses to see the famous painting hidden under the special paint.

Since Steven knows the existence of this famous painting, it means that he has indeed seen the record of the sale of the stolen goods. The credibility of what he said is very high, and the record of the sale of the stolen goods should indeed exist! "

After finishing speaking, he immediately looked at Ye Tian, ​​his eyes full of anticipation, looking forward to seeing the very tempting list of stolen goods immediately.

But Ye Tian didn't look at him at all, but stared at the museum owners and famous collectors who were already dancing with excitement.

"Steven, our museum accepts your offer in principle, you can get one of the two stolen works of art that appear on the video!

But this matter still needs to go through some procedures. After all, the museum does not belong to me. We have to hold a meeting to study it and give you an answer later. It should be an affirmative answer! "

The Philadelphia Museum of Art was the first to change its position and raised the white flag.

"Our museum is the same. We can accept your conditions. As long as the case is solved, the three Chinese ink landscapes will belong to you! Of course, you have to communicate with AXA Art Insurance!"

Isaac of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts said loudly, with a painful expression on his face.

He couldn't disagree, because they were the museum that suffered the most from the art thieves.

Over the past 20 years, more than one robbery has occurred in their museum, and the stolen top-level artworks are not limited to the six pieces in the video materials, but many more.

Judging from the current signs, these thefts are likely to be the work of the gang of art thieves in Boston. Who let them get close?

As soon as Isaac finished speaking, the executives of AXA Art Insurance Insurance Co., Ltd. spoke up!

"Steven, our insurance company accepts your conditions in principle, but we have to go through some procedures! It shouldn't be difficult to pass!"

Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately clenched his fists and cheered secretly.

"Get it! Get rich!"

Not only was he secretly celebrating, David and his assistant, as well as Jason and Matisse, had ecstasy in their eyes.
