Chapter 925: The Personal Exhibition Room in the Forbidden City
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the twelfth year of the new year.
It's been a whole week since the private auction that caused a sensation in the antique shop and made huge waves in the Asian antique art auction scene.
In the past week, Ye Tian was so busy that his feet barely touched the ground, and he didn't have time until yesterday.
On the afternoon of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, after the auction was successfully concluded and celebrated, the delivery session immediately began.
Many of the successful bidders at the auction who chose to take the place of delivery confirmed the transaction by signing their names on the contract and the commitment agreement.
With their actions, the bank account that Ye Tian specially opened for this auction poured in as much as ten or two billion yuan in just one or two hours.
The sheer number of these transactions and the high frequency of the influx even frightened the relevant staff of the bank, so much so that the exclusive account manager called directly to ask Ye Tian about the specific situation.
After the closing, the buyers left the showroom and the Beijing Hotel satisfied, each with the top antique artwork they had acquired.
Walking out of the exhibition hall, everyone was excited and returned triumphantly!
There are less than half of the buyers who deliver on the spot, and the rest choose to deliver later, Ye Tian certainly understands this situation very well.
Not every buyer has a lot of money on hand, and it takes a little time to raise it.
In particular, museums and other cultural and museum units from all over the country still have some necessary procedures to go through, and it is basically impossible to deliver them immediately at the exhibition hall.
For the next two days, Ye Tian had been busy with this matter, almost for forty-eight hours.
Two days later, all the closing procedures were successfully completed, and the remaining top-quality antique artworks that had been auctioned off were also picked up by many successful bidders.
The funds in Ye Tian's bank account soared wildly again, which made the relevant staff of the bank jaw-dropping and envious!
During this period, Ye Tian hired several senior real estate appraisers to rush to Ya'er Hutong in Nanluoguxiang with the lawyer to evaluate Lao Li's house covering an area of more than 600 square meters.
As Lao Li himself said, the geographical location of the courtyard house is excellent, the state of preservation is quite good, it is a rare good house, the market price is close to 400 million yuan.
After getting the professional appraisal report, Ye Tian did not hesitate at all, and immediately completed the delivery with Lao Li!
He successfully won the quadrangle, and Lao Li won the pair of plum bottles of the Northern Song Dynasty Junyao, which can be called a national treasure, and the two of them each had their own gains, and they were both happy!
The market price of that house exceeded the auction price a lot, and Ye Tian would naturally compensate for the excess part, and would not let Lao Li suffer a loss!
Later, when the property rights change procedures are completed, Lao Li will receive more than 100 million yuan in cash compensation, which is enough for him to buy another set of courtyard houses elsewhere in the capital, and he doesn't have to live in a building at all!
Next, Ye Tian handed over all the transaction contracts to his father, who kept these contracts, and he did not plan to take them to the United States.
The property right change procedures of the courtyard house in Ya'er Hutong were also followed up by my father, and two lawyers, Tian Huafeng and Chen Fei, assisted and handled relevant legal affairs.
In the next few days, Ye Tian still couldn't be idle.
He first gave an interview to a CCTV figure, made a splash on TV, and explained to the public the origin of the top antique artworks at the auction!
As for the auction prices of those antique artworks and the identities of many winning bidders, he did not mention anything, leaving people with endless imagination!
But it's no secret that the top antique artworks fetch for their way to that collector or museum!
In addition to CCTV, there are many local TV stations, websites, and other news media, including those in the mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao, as well as many foreign news media.
The most enthusiastic and active foreign media are news media from the United States, such as the New York Times and NBC.
These guys don't know anything about Chinese antiques, they only care about one thing, and that is the turnover of this auction, which is simple and crude!
Because of the attention of these media, within a few days after the auction, Ye Tian also enjoyed the treatment of a superstar and experienced the feeling of a superstar!
In those days, wherever he went, he would be chased and intercepted by many media reporters, and countless long guns and short guns were shooting at him frantically, trying to get close to him and conduct interviews.
At first, he enjoyed the sensation of being in the limelight, but after less than a day, he was tired of dealing with the annoying media reporters like flies!
In the following time, Raymond and several Chinese security personnel erected a strong defense line around him, preventing media reporters from approaching and not giving him any chance to interview.
After two or three days in a row, those media reporters saw that there was no opportunity, and they dispersed one after another.
Of course, they must inevitably complain behind their backs, and even curse a few words, blaming Ye Tian for not understanding the amorous feelings, and not taking these uncrowned kings as dishes!
After completing the delivery procedures and resting at home for less than half a day, Ye Tian was busy again.
He signed a series of loan contracts with the Forbidden City, borrowed a temporary exhibition hall with high security, and displayed all the antique artworks given to his family for public exhibition!
Or in the Forbidden City, a special exhibition hall belonging to him has begun to be arranged in full swing, installing the most advanced display equipment and the top security system, and striving to create the best personal exhibition room in China!
After the interior decoration of this special exhibition hall is completed and it has passed the most rigorous inspection, it will be officially put into use!
The antique artworks displayed in the temporary exhibition hall will be moved to the special exhibition hall for public exhibition, becoming a unique exhibition hall in the Forbidden City!
In addition, Ye Tian also signed a secondment contract with the Forbidden City for relevant staff, and is ready to secondment a group of the most professional cultural and museum personnel in China to work in this exhibition room.
There are two people in charge of managing the exhibition room.
One is from the Forbidden City, a very experienced cultural and museum expert, trustworthy! The other is Ye Tian's family, his aunt! The internal management of the exhibition room is dominated by her!
My aunt used to be an editor in a publishing house, and she was also a cultural person, and she was meticulous and responsible, so she was pulled over by Ye Tian to manage this personal exhibition room.
For this job, my aunt did not hesitate at all, and immediately nodded and agreed, very simply!
The income here is higher, and it is relatively leisurely, and you can deal with priceless and beautiful antique art every day, how can my aunt refuse?
What's more, all the antique artworks in this exhibition room belong to the family, and there are also a few treasures belonging to her own small family, all of which are very valuable, and she is even more unlikely to refuse!
When these antique artworks were transported to the Forbidden City for the exhibition, many experts from the Forbidden City who rushed to the exhibition room were shocked again, and they were stunned and envious!
It was only then that they saw all the antique artworks that Ye Tian had brought back to China!
In addition to being shocked, these cultural experts also have a deeper understanding of Ye Tian's strong strength and generosity to his family!
And that's not all, it's just the beginning!
Ye Tian later announced in public that more priceless top antique artworks will be stationed in this exhibition hall one after another, enriching the exhibits here and upgrading the level of this exhibition hall!
The treasures he is talking about are also Chinese antiques and artworks that have been lost overseas for a long time, from his personal collection, each of which is a fine product, and is being kept in major vaults in New York at this time!
In addition to these, there are also antique artworks that he will receive in the future, as long as they are of excellent quality and come from China, they can be sent here!
For this, many cultural and museum experts in the Forbidden City are naturally very welcome, and they are happy to smile, and the excited slaps are about to be slapped!
At the same time as signing the loan contract, Ye Tian also signed a series of insurance contracts with a well-known art insurance company, covering a huge amount of insurance for each exhibit in the exhibition hall!
As he said to Lao Li before, Ye Tian invited many media reporters to the scene to witness, and broadcast the whole process of signing the loan contract and arranging the exhibition on the Internet.
With this action, he sent a very clear message to the outside world.
Buddies do leave a lot of top antique artworks in China, but these treasures are not stored at home, but in the personal exhibition hall of the Forbidden City!
In this way, he will definitely be able to dispel the covetousness of many people, unless he plans to ransack the Forbidden City, how can it be?
For his approach, many cultural and museum experts in the Forbidden City were a little crying and laughing, but they had no choice but to complain in their hearts.
We are the Forbidden City! A world-famous museum, as for the idea of hitting these antique works of art in your boy? Even though they are all top-notch goods, the quality is very good, and it is exciting!
Fueled by the media and the Internet, the news that Ye Tian opened a personal exhibition room in the Forbidden City and exhibited his top antique artworks quickly spread throughout the antique shops and the whole country.
The next morning, as soon as the Forbidden City opened, a group of professionals from Beijing antique shops and major museums poured into the Forbidden City and went straight to Ye Tian's temporary exhibition room!
When they entered the exhibition hall and saw the top antique artworks displayed in the bulletproof glass display case, which were valuable and had been lost overseas for a long time, they were immediately shocked and excited!
Immediately after, they were attracted by these treasures, and they admired them with intoxication and lingered!
