Find the treasures of the Inca Empire in the jungles of South America. Deep in the Amazon rainforest, a lost Akka civilization was discovered.

...

I won't say much about his legendary adventures, treasure hunting stories and the legendary treasures of his underground treasure house.

If you are interested in his legendary adventures and treasure hunting stories, you can search for it.

What I want to say is that there are a lot of Chinese national treasures in his hands. As far as everyone knows, there are two bronze statues of the twelve zodiac beast heads of Yuanmingyuan, namely the snake head and the sheep head. 2048 volumes of pre-Qin bamboo slips, as well as a group of Xia Dynasty bronzes, numbering more than 1,000 pieces.

At the beginning, when Liu Zhenhe saw the name Chen Rui in the upper left corner of the front page of the thesis, he would not associate with the adventurer Chen Rui at all.

Because the label of adventurer Chen Rui is adventure, treasure, Tortoga, ..., it is definitely not associated with Chen Rui, a historian who delivers academic papers to the Journal of World History anyway .

Later, Liu Zhenhe checked it and found out that Chen Rui, who had submitted academic papers to the Journal of World History and appeared as a historian in the image of Liu Zhenhe, was the one labeled with adventure, treasure hunt, and treasure. Chen Rui.

"Is it possible to persuade Chen Rui to donate these bronzes to the country?" One of them, wearing a black sun suit, a bit fat, and wearing a pair of reading glasses, Zhao Zhenguo, a cultural relic researcher from the Yanjing Museum, asked Liu Zhenhe.

Liu Zhenhe shook his head and said, "If it is only one or two. Maybe it is possible, but it is impossible for him to donate all of these bronzes. You know. The preliminary valuation of these batches of bronzes is more than 7 billion. It was too embarrassing for Chen Rui to donate all of the 7+ billion yuan worth of bronzes at once. "

This is actually the case.

Think about it another way.

If you encounter this situation, you will be asked to donate something worth 70+ billion yuan at a time, will you?

Of the 15 people present, 14 must have chosen not to, and one person was telling lies.

This is the real side of human nature. It has nothing to do with encyclopedias, saints.

Liu Zhenhe continued, "Several leaders of the central government are very concerned about this matter. Chen Rui's evaluation is very high."

Wu Zhengyi said, "Did these batches of Xia dynasty bronzes be lost overseas, there is no possibility of returning to China?"

"Yes." Liu Zhenhe said, "For this question, I passed with Chen Rui. It is good news to get Chen Rui's reply.

Chen Rui said that as a Chinese, he is very proud of China's splendid civilization. He also hopes that these Xia Dynasty bronzes from China will return to China so that all Chinese people can appreciate what they are proud of. He expressed his willingness to sell these bronzes and donated two bronze statues of the 12 animals of the Yuanmingyuan Zodiac to China. "

"Great."

"Good news."

...

Liu Zhenhe's answer was very exciting news for more than a dozen people present.

There was a smile on everyone's face.

"Even if Chen Rui is willing to sell, it is not a small number to buy this batch of Xia Dynasty bronzes. You also said that the initial valuation of these Xia Dynasty bronzes is more than 7 billion." Someone asked a question.

Liu Zhenhe smiled and said. "The central leaders are very concerned about this matter, and they also very much hope that China's national treasure can return to China, no matter how much it costs. The purchase money can be allocated from the Ministry of Finance."

This is another exciting news for everyone.

After discussion, a working group of Xia Wenmingguang was established.

As the name suggests, the purpose of this group was to re-light the ancient Chinese Xia civilization, and to re-understand the Chinese Xia civilization in the world.

The main tasks of this working group are:

1. Acquire the batch of Xia Dynasty bronzes in the hands of Chen Rui.

2. Examination and demonstration of these Xia Dynasty bronze wares resulted in a summary report of the results. Let the international academic community change the definition of Chinese civilization, and let people all over the world re-understand Chinese Xia Dynasty civilization.

3. Establish a Xia Dynasty Bronze Museum and display the Xia Dynasty Bronze.

The number of this working group finally reached hundreds.

These include well-known domestic history, archeologists, scholars, experts in the identification of bronze artifacts, officials of the Ministry of Finance, legal experts, evaluation experts, negotiation experts, etc.

After the Xia Wenmingguang Working Group was established, it quickly contacted Chen Rui.

Chen Rui responded: it can be sold.

Chen Rui commissioned a large professional evaluation company to evaluate the value of these Xia Dynasty bronzes.

The items evaluated included: Qi Jian, Xing Ding, Yi Qi Pan, and 1237 bronze wares.

Among them, the highest appraisal price is Yiqi Pan with ‘Xia Shi is in it’.

Evaluation experts have very high evaluation of Yiqipan.

The shape of the Yi Qi plate is very large, the caster is exquisite, and the decoration is exquisite. This is a masterpiece in Chinese bronzes, and its artistic value is very high.

The inner wall of the plate is engraved with 24 lines and 517 characters, which describes the achievements of the Xia Dynasty from the beginning of Yu to the 9th generation of the Xia Dynasty. These inscriptions not only describe the pedigree of the Xia Dynasty with a clear line to the future generations, but also tell the important history of the Xia Dynasty. event. This gave Yi Qipan several times its research value and archeological value.

Evaluation experts unanimously gave a high price of 187.1 million US dollars to Yi Qipan, which is equivalent to RMB 1,159.4 million.

It broke the highest record in the history of art auctions created by Picasso's "Algiers Woman (o version)" for $ 179 million.

Some evaluation experts even speculate that if the auction is up, the price of Yiqi plate may break through 200 million US dollars ~ www.novelhall.com ~ why they think so.

It is because Chinese bronzes have a long history and a long history. Both in historical value and artistic value, they can be called the highest artistic achievements of bronze in the world.

Its value is world-renowned, and it is a well-deserved main force in the collection market.

Chinese bronzes have been sought after by more and more domestic and international collectors and investors.

The market is getting better and better, and some fine bronzes can be sold at very high prices.

For example, in the late Shang Dynasty, a dish of 皿 方 罍 was auctioned for USD 9.246 million in 2001. At the average exchange rate of 8.27 that year, the total price of “方 罍 was more than 76 million yuan.

Considering the rising currency and the increasing popularity of bronzes among collectors and investors, the market for bronzes is getting better.

This "Fang Fangyu" has reached hundreds of millions of yuan in current market prices. (To be continued)
