Hello 1983

Immediately, exclamations resounded throughout the audience: [-] million US dollars, this is really crazy!

It was a long-haired man who was asking for the price. His eyes were calm, and he should be of mixed Indian-European descent, most likely from South America.

Everyone couldn't help being amazed: If you say that the local tyrants in the Middle East, or the people from Dongying in the past two years, might be able to do this kind of thing, but this long-haired man doesn't know the origin.

The auctioneer was also taken aback, but soon, he was startled: Could it be to disrupt the situation?

At the auction, there is a special category of people who deliberately call out high prices, and will not make a deal with the auction house afterwards, at worst losing a little deposit.

Such people usually do not want the item to be sold, but intentionally cause trouble.

Their intentions are also different, but most of them want to express some kind of protest.

For example, when the bronze animal head was auctioned later, someone did this.

The auctioneer is very experienced, and he soon had an ominous premonition, but this kind of thing, until the end of the auction, can't be dismantled, so he can only bite the bullet and continue:

"Mr. 105, the bid is [-] million U.S. dollars. Is there any other gentleman who bid?"

The auctioneer was talking, but his eyes were only on Liu Qingshan. If there is anyone who might bid, then it can only be this Mr. Mountain.

"Mr. Mountain, thank you for your friendship, but we hope to recover what originally belonged to us through other means."

Behind Liu Qingshan, there was a low voice, also a man with long hair, who should be in the same group as No. 105.

Liu Qingshan nodded, then shook his head, choosing to give up.

Now, Looney and the others got excited again, and Looney immediately began to mock: "Mr. Mountain, isn't your friendship priceless? Why don't you bid?"

Liu Qingshan was not annoyed at all: "The dignity of the country and the nation is always higher than personal friendship, people like you, it's better not to ask, you don't understand."

You do not understand!

The last sentence, with endless contempt, called Looney and others, feeling extremely insulted.

But they couldn't vent their anger. In front of Liu Qingshan, they had nothing but to suffer.

"I'm going to take a rest first." Facing the fiery gazes around him, Looney felt ashamed to sit here.

Tony and the others also stood up.

Just as they left the field, there was sudden applause behind them, mixed with a few booing voices.

No matter how thick-skinned Looney and the others were, they knew that this was definitely not sending them off, so they all quickened their pace.

When he got outside, he was blown by the night wind, sobering up a lot. He also had some doubts in his heart: what happened, that he lost his composure tonight?

Looney didn't know that many people who had a feud with Liu Qingshan usually felt this way.

In the following auction, the atmosphere became very strange. A batch of cultural relics of Indian civilization that appeared one after another were all called for a high price of [-] million.

These bidders also gradually understood, and simply stopped participating. The auction, which was originally booming, ended hastily in the end.

When people stood up and left the venue one after another, they saw those long-haired men walking in front of Liu Qingshan, and the leading middle-aged man bowed slightly:

"Mr. Mountain, we are members of the cultural relics recovery team of four South American countries. We hope to recover these Indian cultural relics through the International Cultural Relics Recovery Convention, so please understand."

Liu Qingshan took the initiative to reach out to the other party: "In fact, in this respect, we are all the same, we are all victims, so we are all friends."

"My name is Fonseca. It is my honor to be friends with Mr. Mountain." The middle-aged man also showed a sincere smile on his face.

Liu Qingshan introduced Lu Fang and Boban to each other, and they can contact each other more in the future.

After Fonseca and the others left, Liu Qingshan asked Lu Fang and the others to go through the formalities. It is better to take the big tripod away directly.

This auction will be disrupted, what if it doesn't count?

It is simply impossible to buy this great tripod back at such a cheap price in the future.

After a while, I saw Lu Fang and the others returning with a smile on their faces, and the big square tripod was being carried on Li Tieniu's shoulders.

This is probably what he was talking about.

Liu Qingshan couldn't help being excited, his Qingshan Museum could finally have a bronze tripod.

In the eyes of the Chinese people, the tripod is not only a bronze vessel, but also a symbol of power and status.

In history, the king of Chu Zhuang once aspired to the size of the crown.

Li Tieniu also gently put the tripod on the ground, and everyone gathered around to watch it.

I saw that the surface was turquoise, revealing the vicissitudes of history.

About [-] to [-] centimeters in height, erect ears, straight mouth, square lips, flat bottom, four legs below.

The whole shape is simple and vigorous, which is daunting.

The outside is decorated with cloud patterns, and the inner wall and bottom are cast with inscriptions of several crosses.

Such a big tripod is the treasure of any museum.

It's just that the characters in the cauldron are unknown at present. Although Vera is an expert in language and characters, she also doesn't know anything about oracle bone inscriptions and Zhong Dingwen.

It seems that it can only be transported back to China, and then experts will be invited to appraise it. In short, the big tripod with the inscription must have a source.

"This harvest is good, haha, let's go back and celebrate, I'll treat you to a midnight snack!" Of course Liu Qingshan was in a good mood.

Just as everyone was smiling, they saw a few guys with unlucky faces also walking out of the auction. It was Luni and others.

Behind them, followed by a group of staff members, all carefully holding the box in their arms. Needless to say, it contained the clay tablet they had photographed.

Liu Qingshan looked at Li Tieniu with a wink, but Tieniu was too blind to understand what Liu Qingshan meant.

In the end, it was Li Tie who made a sudden kick, and a staff member staggered and fell to the ground.

With a scream, the box that the man was holding also fell down the steps.

The two clay tablets in the box were thrown out and landed heavily on the concrete floor.

As you can imagine, the clay tablets were broken into several pieces.

Li Tie was well-trained, just like Shadowless Feet, and it was night again, so no one else noticed.

"What's wrong, you broke my baby, can you afford it?" Looney was in a bad mood, the house leaked and it rained continuously, and this kind of thing happened again, so why didn't he get annoyed.

"Sir, I really didn't mean it." The staff member was also panicked.

Looney was on fire in his heart, and immediately raised his hand, preparing to slap the opponent twice hard.

But the arm that was pulled out was grabbed by someone, unable to move at all.

Liu Qingshan's smiling face appeared in front of Looney: "Mr. Looney, how about your gentlemanly demeanor?"

"I want you to take care of it!" When Lu Ni saw Liu Qingshan, he was furious, and the culprit was you!

He struggled a few times, but couldn't break free at all. Only then did Looney remember that the person opposite him was a kung fu master.

But at this moment, Vera's exclamation suddenly sounded: "Oh, there is something wrong with this clay tablet, it seems to be a fake!"

Chapter 38

Vera's words immediately attracted many people who did not leave, including some bidders and staff of the auction house.

"Ma'am, you must have a basis for what you say." A staff member of the auction house said to Vera, with a somewhat unfriendly tone.

After all, this kind of thing still has an impact on the reputation of the auction house.

Vera didn't speak, and bent over to pick up two broken clay tablets, shaking them in front of everyone's eyes.

With the bright light in front of the door, one can see that half of a cigarette butt, the kind with a filter tip, appeared on the broken part of the clay tablet.

Half of the cigarette butt is exposed outside, while the other half is inlaid in the clay tablet.

"The Sumerian civilization is really developed, and there are even filter-tipped cigarettes." Vera smiled like a flower, but the words in her mouth were like needle pricks to some people.

The staff of the auction house didn't dare to speak anymore, it was too obvious.

And Looney waved his arms angrily: "Is this how your auction house treats customers?"

Are there any counterfeit items in regular auction houses?

The answer is yes, because the auction house will not clearly mark the authenticity of the artwork. Sometimes, it is still a test of the bidder's vision.

It's just that large auction houses, for the sake of their own reputation, rarely auction fakes, but occasionally the appraiser will go wrong.

In this regard, the auction house is of course not responsible. If you buy a fake, you can only admit that you are unlucky.

The anger in Looney's chest can almost be ignited now: it was a waste of money to shoot, and it was useless.

The result is still false, how can you make him feel so embarrassed?

"Hey, this time I really have to piss and play with mud." Li Tieniu really didn't mean to ridicule, that's what he thought in his heart.

"You auction house, you must give me an explanation!" Looney and the others felt ashamed to continue to stay, put down a harsh word, and then quickly got in the car and left.

yeah!Vera couldn't help but started to give everyone a high-five. She is indeed an expert in characters. When she saw the cuneiform characters on the clay tablets, she felt that there was something wrong. Naturally, she made a fool of Looney and the others.

Liu Qingshan and the others also got into the car with their trophies.

It was already a bit late, so Liu Qingshan made a phone call directly to his aunt's villa, and stayed at Li Tie's hotel for one night.

On the way back to the hotel, Vera also made a request: let Liu Qingshan help her find an expert in oracle bone inscriptions, and she also needs to study this kind of writing systematically.

Of course Liu Qingshan nodded in agreement, maybe a foreigner like Vera, who looks at the problem from a different angle, can really recognize a few more oracle bone inscriptions.

I remember that later generations seem to have rewards in this regard, such as how much money is given to identify an oracle bone inscription.

However, this amount of money is estimated to be impossible for ordinary people to earn. The difficulty is too high, and the difficulty of hell is not enough to describe it. It should be said to be at the ancient difficulty level.

The next night, Liu Qingshan invited Grandpa Du and his aunt and grandma's family to the cinema to watch the red lanterns hang high.

The film is distributed by Columbia Pictures, and the channels are wider than in previous lives.

In the theater, Liu Qingshan saw half of them were overseas Chinese.

However, there are also foreigners who are equally interested.

According to Liu Qingshan's prediction, the box office of this movie can be higher.

This is indeed the case, and the box office has exceeded 300 million in just over a week since its release.

Grandpa Du and aunt Grandma have experienced it from that era, and both of them came from big families, so they still like this movie very much and gave it a high evaluation.

The only thing that is not satisfied is Du Jiaxing, he prefers to watch Superman or Spiderman.

Wu Tong also enjoyed watching the show, holding Liu Qingshan's arm all the time.

When the film was about to end, she still asked Liu Qingshan with red eyes: "Sanfeng, you men, do you want to hang more red lanterns?"

Liu Qingshan answered with practical actions, he gently kissed Wu Tong's face.

In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Liu Qingshan is still a relatively traditional man.

Flipping the sky, it's time for the Oscars.

This year's awards ceremony was held at the Los Angeles Music Center.

As for the Kodak Theater becoming a fixed awards venue, that was after 2002.

After having lunch and resting for a while, Liu Qingshan and his party also dressed up to attend.

In front of the music center, a long red carpet has been laid.

Walking the red carpet is also an important link before the awards. Every year, the stars are shining brightly.

Reporters from all walks of life and the film crew of a big TV station have already grabbed their positions and are ready to go.

Liu Qingshan and the others got out of the car, waited for a while, and finally gathered the crew of Forrest Gump.

In addition to director Robert, there are starring Hanks, as well as some members of the filming team.

All of them were dressed in formal attire and looked very energetic.

After everyone shook hands and greeted, they were ready to walk the red carpet together.

As an investor in the film and a minority shareholder of Columbia Pictures, Xiao Li also participated in the catwalk.

This guy still prefers to walk in the spotlight.

Liu Qingshan is also wearing a Chinese stand-up collar. Under the sunshine and handsomeness, there is also a tranquility and elegance. Even among the male stars, his temperament is not inferior.

The female companions beside him were equally dazzling, and there were two more, Wu Tong and Liu Yinfeng, both dressed in blue and white cheongsams, elegant and noble, compared to those female stars, they were all eclipsed.

"Oh, Liu, I don't have a girlfriend yet?" Xiao Li was also jealous.

Liu Qingshan smiled and shook his head: "You, there are usually too many female companions, but at critical moments, there is no one around."
