Chapter 702
Gao Huayi believes it or not.
Anyway, Su Lang didn't care!
While Gao Huayi was stunned, Su Lang had already walked into the banquet hall with his head held high.
While walking, Su Lang said with a smile: "Boss Dong is really rich, and he has to spend hundreds of millions of yuan to buy things back."
"Awesome, awesome, Su thinks it's not as good!" Dong
Yun frowned,
and his expression instantly became cold.
"Su Lang, what do you mean
?" "Are you saying that my thing is a fake?"
"I didn't say it, you said it yourself."
Su Lang smiled faintly and did not deny it.
The antique industry depends on eyesight!
Blindly believing in auction houses is foolishness.
No auction house can guarantee that the auctions they sell are all genuine.
"Hahahaha~"
At the moment when Su Lang's words just fell, Dong Yun laughed directly.
"Su Lang, I'm lonely and unheard, so don't pretend to be a prophet here!"
"Right now, this "Spring Tree and Autumn Frost Picture" was auctioned by me from Nuyue Sotheby's.
"Does Nuyue Sotheby's know?"
"The oldest and largest auction house in the world, with an annual auction turnover of $2 billion!"
Dong Hao said with a sneer.
"So what
?" "What do you want to express?"
Su Lang shrugged his shoulders and smiled indifferently.
Dong Yun sneered: "Now that you say that my "Spring Tree and Autumn Frost Picture" is a fake, you are questioning the authority of Sotheby's auction house!"
Sotheby's, the
world's largest auction house.
They're not easy to mess with.
Once this kid spreads out, even if it is Su Lang, he will have to walk around without eating.
"Ahem~
" "Boss Dong, Su Gongzi didn't mean that..."
Gao Huayi took a step forward and played a round game.
But before he could finish speaking, he was already interrupted by Su Lang waving his hand.
"You're right, I'm questioning Sotheby's authority. "
Who said Sotheby's can't sell fakes?" Su
Lang smiled faintly.
Silence
! Deathly silence!
At this moment, the entire banquet hall fell silent at once.
Whether it was Dong Yun or Yan Tongfang, their eyes widened at this moment, and their eyes were staring at Su Lang.
They never expected it!
Su Lang would speak so amazingly.
According to common sense, in the face of Dong Yun's questioning, Su Lang should deny it vigorously.
But Se Zeng thought that Su Lang would not play cards according to the routine at all.
It's so generously admitted.
This directly refreshed Dong Yun and Yan Tongfang's cognition.
After a short period of surprise, Dong Yun's little heart was instantly filled with ecstasy.
"Hahaha~
" At this moment, Dong Yun could no longer suppress the ecstasy in his heart, and laughed directly: "Su Lang, Su Lang, do you think you are the master of cultural relics appraisal in the Forbidden City? "
That is, that is, Sotheby's auctions so many goods every year, if there are fakes, can they still exist until now, and get bigger and bigger?"
Jin Xiuyun also echoed.
Sotheby's, in the whole antiques world, is a symbol of authority.
There are hundreds of treasure connoisseurs, and they are not vegetarians.
"Ahem~
" Yan Tongfang coughed awkwardly and said, "Young Master Su, you may not know the auction process of Sotheby's. "
Sotheby's has an appraisal team with hundreds of experts.
"Every item auctioned by Sotheby's has to be appraised by hundreds of people, and only those that are authentic can be auctioned.
Su Lang nodded.
He knew all these things.
However, what has been appraised by hundreds of experts must be "genuine"?
How is it possible?
These people are appraisers who have been kept in captivity by Sotheby's.
Whether something is genuine or not is not a Sotheby's word.
As long as the helmsman of Sotheby's says that he is genuine, can the appraiser under his name still identify the fake?
"Governor Yan, you have fallen into a habitual thinking.
"In the antique industry, even the gods have eyes, let alone people.
"Who says that an item that has been appraised by hundreds of appraisers must be genuine?"
"Besides, these appraisers all work for Sotheby's.
"To put it mildly, they're Sotheby's money-making tools.
"As long as Sotheby's boss speaks, who dares to give an imitation identification?"
Su Lang said lightly.
Uh....
Hearing Su Lang's words, Yan Tongfang fell silent.
He wanted to refute it, but he couldn't.
Because what Su Lang said does make sense.
The appraiser under Sotheby's is of course subject to Sotheby's.
Once the boss of Sotheby's auction house speaks, then who of them dares to give an appraisal of
the "imitation"? "Nonsense
!" "It's just nonsense!" "Su Lang said that, if the Sotheby's market auctioned the imitation, then why hasn't anyone been exposed until now
!" Dong Yun said sharply: "You must know that in fact, it is not only Sotheby's that has an appraiser!"
I don't believe that no one sent the lot for a second appraisal. "
Yes
? Of course there is!
But why hasn't Sotheby's exploded yet?
Su Lang felt that there were two reasons.
On the one hand, Sotheby's is selectively counterfeiting.
Perhaps a hundred pieces will be auctioned, and only one of them will be a copy, which greatly reduces the possibility of exposure.
On the other hand, the degree of counterfeiting is so high that the average appraiser will not be aware of it.
This is also the reason why Sotheby's has not been exposed.
And, all of this no longer exists in front of Su Lang.
He's a master of his craft.
As soon as he took a look, he saw that Dong Hao's "Spring Tree and Autumn Frost Picture" was an imitation.
"Of course there is!" Su Lang smiled and said, "As for why it hasn't been exposed, I think there are probably two reasons.
"One is that the number of imitations is small.
"Both are fakes of such high quality that even ordinary appraisers would not be able to detect them.
"Of course, it is also possible that Sotheby's appraisers made a collective mistake and missed the market. "
Heh..."
"Since the quantity is small and the quality is high, then why do you say that my "Spring Tree and Autumn Frost Picture" is an imitation?" "
Su Lang, I see that you don't understand anything at all, you are just blindly talking nonsense." "
I happen to know a senior executive of Sotheby's auction house, so I'll let him come over and confront him!"
While speaking, Dong Yun didn't wait for the owner of the mansion, Yan Tongfang agreed, and immediately took out his mobile phone from his pocket and dialed the phone.
"Toot toot too~"
After three blind tones, the phone was smoothly connected.
"Tom, it's me Dong Yun, someone framed Sotheby's auction house for selling fakes, yes, it's in the Governor's Mansion in Mid-Levels Central, you hurry up..."
