Rebirth of the Genius Charlatan
Vol 4 Chapter 141: National Treasure and Dignity
The world-renowned mural auction has finally arrived!
Tonight, the Lattice Group unexpectedly allowed media representatives from all over the world to enter the venue. This surprised the media, but also surprised the media, although everyone thought the decision of the Ladis Group was strangely generous.
At the auction summit meeting a few days ago, Laidis Group only opened up a media interview area at the venue. In the three-day auction event, not all auction categories are open to the public, and some events are not allowed to have media interviews and shooting. For example, some celebrity relics or auction categories with relatively high privacy, and some guests refuse to take interviews because they do not want the objects and prices they bid to be made public.
In short, the more precious and important the auction is, the more difficult it is to open it to the outside world. Those who can enter are the cooperative media designated by the Ladis Group. Tonight’s murals are national treasures, and they are definitely the most eye-catching in the history of Letis’s auctions. They are the most special auctions in these three days. It is unpredictable to allow all media from all over the world to enter the venue.
But anyway, all the media are naturally happy to be able to enter the venue to film the auction event. Just in the evening, media from various countries entered the auction hall, found their own area by number, and dispatched a group of people to wait outside, waiting to film the guests entering the venue. [
The auction will start at eight o’clock in the evening, and it’s not time to enter the venue. Generally speaking, no guests will come so early. But the media reporters waiting outside were all taken aback.
someone is coming!
Three black extended Bentley cars parked in sequence at the entrance of the venue. The man who got out of the car had a scar on his chin. Standing on the cold and wide long street in the sunset, lonely as a wolf. When the man opened the car door, the first thing that jumped into the eyes of the reporters was a pair of women's black high heels.
Black shoes, without any extra decoration, but the setting sun lined women's ankles as white as jade, with soft lines.
The woman got out of the car, and there was no sound around her. The quaint long street of Western Gothic architecture seems to be opened by the setting sun in a river of time and space. The woman is standing in the warm Xia Cai, with a deep purple sheep coat over her shoulders, and a plain cheongsam in pale white peony and white. The emerald green round bracelet on her wrist is a little bit, and the light yellow fox hairpin melts the light yellow of the setting sun.
Ten people came down in the two cars behind . Sun Changde, Chen Manguan, and Liu Banwang came behind the woman and accompany her on the steps of the venue.
It wasn't until the woman got on the steps that the reporters reacted—China Group!
The surprise in his eyes has not faded, and reporters from various countries have gathered around. The flashing lights are more dazzling than the sunset, and the problem is raining.
"Hello, Dong Xia! Why are you here so early tonight?"
"You have not attended the auction event in the past two days. There are rumors that you did not show up because of the pressure of domestic public opinion, is that true?"
"Will Huaxia Group bid for the mural tonight?"
"The mural was valued at one billion yuan. The British side has not responded to the return of the mural so far. Does China Group have the intention to photograph it and return it to the country?"
The problems came raining down, but the reporters did not have much hope for Xia Shao’s response to these questions, but the ace hacker was reborn. Questions like this are generally not answered. If Huaxia Group already has a plan for this matter, there is no reason not to announce it to the media to ease the pressure of domestic public opinion. But today, I have avoided talking about it, presumably there is no good way to deal with it.
But what the reporters did not expect was that Xia Shao stopped and looked at the person who asked her the last question.
The reporter was taken aback, only to see the woman's gaze indifferent and not intimidating, which made people feel abrupt. The voices of reporters asking questions were getting smaller and smaller, and gradually became quiet.
In a quiet atmosphere, Xia Shao opened his mouth, "I have never seen a practice that does not point the finger at the thief, but at the compatriots. Whoever steals, who returns it, Huaxia Group is not the stealing party, and will not fulfill the obligation of return for the stealing party. Nor will it pay a huge ransom to the stealing party to increase its arrogance."
The reporters were taken aback, and they all felt that this sounded a bit confusing. But after thinking for a while, I understand! This means that Huaxia Group will not participate in the mural auction. Participating in the auction is different from encouraging the British arrogance. Moreover, Xia Shao's remarks meant to criticize some domestic public opinion-your things were stolen by a thief, so instead of asking the thief, you blame your family for not buying it back from the thief?
This logic sounds ridiculous.
The reporters reacted, and the flashes called Xia Shao one after another. This was the first time she responded to this incident! [
"I just want my compatriots in China to understand one thing. The way to return the mural should not be buying and selling. China Group has the financial resources to buy back this mural, but how do we return the tens of thousands of national treasures that we live overseas? Is it really glorious for the return of the national treasure? The return of the national treasure is not only the national treasure, but also our dignity. Taking money to redeem the national treasure and selling the dignity, is this really what you want?"
Under the flashlight, the woman's eyes were indifferent, leaving a thought-provoking question, and she walked into the venue, accompanied by the company's executives.
Chen Manguan, Sun Changde and Liu Banwang followed Xia Shao thoughtfully. It was the first time for the three of them to hear Xia Shao's views on the matter today. Before that, she didn't know exactly how she would solve the domestic public opinion crisis. Although they still couldn't see what she could do at this time, her words did make sense.
The return of trading is not glorious.
In that year, how many national treasures and cultural relics were stolen out of the country? This is a shame in history, and now we have to spend money to buy these from the thief. Isn't it even more shame? If you have money, you shouldn't give it to those robbers' pockets! Moreover, this incident can't set a precedent at all. If the murals tonight are bought and sold, what about other national treasures and cultural relics? The next time the other party is short of money to spend it in this way, how much money do we have to give to others?
If Huaxia Group really bids this mural back, it may not be praised, and I am afraid that it will lose its dignity. What is robbed should be returned by the other party. This is equal. He bowed his knees and offered the money to redeem things. In the future, in the international community, who else would you like to make it worth it?
Isn’t it just redeeming the national treasure and selling dignity?
……
Xia Shao’s first statement outside the venue was sent back to China by reporters from China Entertainment Media. In a short period of time, it caused a strong response and continued online discussions. However, reporters from various countries at the entrance of the venue still had a problem.
Since Xia Shao thinks this way, Huaxia Group will definitely not participate in the auction. What does she want to do at the auction venue so early tonight?
Before Xia Shao attended the event, although she was not late, she never arrived early. She is a person who is too lazy to socialize, but today is the first one to arrive at the venue, and it was two hours early!
What does she want to do?
Xia Shao is in the VIP guest room of the Ladis Group on the top floor of the auction venue building.
On the sofa, the woman is holding a cup of black tea, taking a sip, her expression is cold.
Opposite, Old Burton laughed with him. The old man who is well-known for international shopping malls seemed a little cautious at the moment, "Xia Dongzhen is punctual, hehe reborn girl cooperates with Huanxian."
"Chairman Burton, can you let me see that mural tonight?" Xia Shao raised his eyes lightly.
Today, it was actually Old Burton who asked Xia Shao to come so early. She could probably guess what he was doing, but she still asked what she cared most first. As soon as she arrived at the meeting place, she had already searched the meeting place building with open eyes. The murals had not been delivered yet, and they were still in the Ladis Manor at the moment.
Tonight is the last chance for Xu Tianyin and his party to complete the task. Xia Shao wants to ensure that this old man will not change his mind temporarily. In fact, even if Old Burton didn't invite her to discuss something today, she would arrive earlier to allow Xu Tianyin and his party to move freely in the venue to find out the situation of the venue, and secondly to beat the old man to keep him from playing tricks.
At this time, Xu Tianyin and his party were "moving" outside, and there were only Xia Shao and Old Burton in this reception room.
Hearing Xia Shao's mouth and mentioning the mural, Old Burton's eyes changed, and then he was relieved and smiled: "Xia Dong rest assured that the Ladis Group has released the news of the mural auction, and the guests. Come here, and now the media from all over the world are ready in the auction hall, even if I want to break my promise, I dare not make fun of the reputation of the Lattice Group."
This is indeed reasonable, but Xia Shao raised her eyebrows lightly. With sharp eyes, she just caught a glimpse of Old Burton's relieved expression, feeling suspicious.
Isn’t this old man always the most afraid of her being related to the mural? Why is it relieved to hear her mention it at this time? [
"Haha, Dong Xia, I invited you today. Actually, I have encountered a difficult thing, and I want to ask you for help." Old Burton said.
Xia Shao raised her eyebrows silently, listening to him continue.
Old Burton rubbed his hands, "That's it, last night... well, last night, Earl Albert died in our beach house in Letis. I know that the death of the Earl has something to do with Mr. Don and you. You. I know. Although our Ladis Group is well-known internationally, we are only businessmen. We really can’t afford the Obicris family. I would like to ask Dong Xia if you can, can you..."
"You want me to stand up and admit that I killed the old earl." Xia Shao finished speaking for him.
Old Burton nodded, then shook his head, his expression awkward. People were not invited by their family, nor were they killed. If this matter is placed on anyone, he will severely ask the other person to come out and admit it! Otherwise, let him see the power of the Ladis family. But when this matter fell on Xia Shao, Old Burton had no confidence.
Strict? He dare not. It was a matter of course that Xia Shao should come out to admit, but now it has become his request.
Last night, the family discussed countermeasures overnight, and the only way was to ask Xia Shao to come forward. In fact, Earl Albert died so terribly that it was not the work of ordinary people like them. Even if the Obicris family knew that people died here, they would not think that the death of the old Earl was related to them.
But even if it is anger, the family cannot afford it. Moreover, what worries the family even more is the believers of Earl Albert in all parts of the world. The believers are crazy. They have no reason to speak of. If they know that people die in their family, the group will suffer the anger and revenge of these believers. An unprecedented blow.
"Xia Dong, in fact, what I mean is that the death of Earl Albert, the Obicris family must be able to see that we are not the murderers, no one needs to stand up and admit it. We just hope Xia Dong can help and cheat Austria. The lies of the Bechris family and the world say that the earl died elsewhere. We must be grateful!"
