Chapter 617 616. Gift (510)
Li Du didn't even know Ferrari's background, how could he explain it to him?
But he can't ask this at this time. Jim King is obviously a very smart guy. If he asks, it is estimated that the other party will immediately understand that the relationship between the two parties is normal.
He continued to say vaguely: "I'll go back and mention it to him."
Seeing that his answer was a deal-breaker, Jim King became a little anxious.
He rubbed his hands habitually, opened the desk drawer and took out a box, handed it to Li Du and said, "Oh, buddy, there is something I almost forgot. Haha, I prepared a small gift for you, I hope it can make up for it." The harm caused to you by our company in this matter."
Li Du said: "You are too polite, Boss Jin."
Jim King opened the box, and inside was a square piece of jade, with a blue and white color, and a red ribbon tied to the ear, which looked very beautiful.
He pushed the box in front of Li Du and said, "Take a look at this gift and see if you like it."
Li Du didn't even look at the gift. He sat down and released the little flying insects, looking for the two oil paintings that it had been interested in.
Before releasing the little flying insects, he was worried whether the two paintings would be put somewhere else by Jim King, and whether the little flying insects would not be able to find them.
Facts have proved that his worry was in vain. After the little flying insect appeared, it immediately pounced on Jim King, then passed through his fat body, and went straight to the two Van Gogh paintings behind him.
Li Du stopped it, and looked at the oil painting on the wall calmly.
The painting on the left depicts a scene of the sea surface before the rainstorm. The sea water rolls up waves and blows a boat, and several people are scattered on the shore. The background is the plants outlined with thick lines.
He used the ability to turn back time, and some images appeared in front of him.
The first image is a man with an inverted triangle face sitting on the beach, his eyes are empty, unkempt, his brows are tightly furrowed, and he seems to be lost in a kind of confusion.
Just seeing this portrait, Li Du was shocked. This is the owner of the signature in the painting. This is the real body, one of the greatest human artists in the 19th century, Vincent William Van Gogh!
Because he usually dabbles extensively, he has seen many photos of artworks, including Van Gogh's self-portraits, old photos of Van Gogh, and sketches of Van Gogh made by others.
Now this person is Van Gogh!
There are also some images later, images related to this painting.
Van Gogh finished the painting in one go, and then colored it several times later. He seemed dissatisfied with the portrait, and then put it on the shelf.
Later, the painting was taken away by a white man who looked very similar to Van Gogh. The white man carefully decorated and protected the portrait, but he seemed not interested in the painting and also put it on the shelf.
Continuing on, this painting was transferred to a castle several times. When cleaning up the castle, the oil painting was inadvertently discarded...
Judging from the video data, it was not only this painting that was discarded at the time, but another one was also thrown away. The painting showed a forest and one of the churches.
Li Du subconsciously looked to the side. There is also such a painting here. There is a church in a forest, and there are many people standing around the church...
"Fuck!" He subconsciously cursed in his heart.
Can't be so lucky? While asking himself in disbelief, he let the bug pass by, and then, the time was reversed, and the first picture was still Van Gogh painting!
Now Li Du couldn't pretend to be calm anymore, he quickly retracted the little flying insect, and looked at the oil painting on the wall frequently.
Jim Jin is a fine person, he can see that Li Du is not interested in the gift he gave, which can be seen from the other party's casual expression.
What surprised him was that Li Du seemed to be interested in the two fake Van Gogh paintings he hung on the wall?
Since the second half of the 20th century, Van Gogh's paintings have continued to rise in the art collection market, and have repeatedly achieved astonishing sky-high prices.
Soon, the portraits of Van Gogh became treasures in the palace of human art. Van Gogh became a unparalleled master of painting. Many painters began to study his paintings, and many schools began to learn his painting methods.
In this way, there are more fakes of Van Gogh paintings on the market. The big collectors are proud of collecting his authentic works. Jim King also wants to collect them, but he does not have the strength and can only collect fakes.
In fact, he has a whole set of Van Gogh fakes in his collection. There are only twelve oil paintings and twenty-two sketches hanging in his office, and there are still more in his collection room.
In addition, he not only collected the paintings of Van Gogh, but also collected the works of other famous painters, such as Monet, Picasso, and Da Vinci.
Of course, it's all fake.
Seeing that Li Du seemed interested in the oil paintings behind him, Jim Jin asked tentatively: "Li, do you like these two paintings?"
His voice pulled Li Du out of the shock. Li Du smiled and said, "Oh, sorry, I may have lost my composure. In fact, I also like to collect, but I have never collected oil paintings."
His mind turned quickly, and he found a reason: "I was not interested in oil paintings before, and I only saw these masterpieces from photos. Now, after seeing the real works of these paintings from you, I am shocked. It turns out that these paintings are So charming!"
Hearing what he said, Jim King nodded suddenly, and he said: "So, then you should collect oil paintings. Obviously, you have high taste and can perceive the charm of oil paintings."
Li Du said: "Really? Then maybe I have to try."
Jim King said: "But I have to tell you, this is not an authentic Van Gogh. How could an authentic Van Gogh be preserved so well?"
Li Du was stunned, what is the reason?
Judging from the reversal of time, except for Van Gogh who didn't care about this painting, the later owner cared about it very much, and the protection was called careful and serious, which is why it can be preserved so well.
But since Jim King thinks so, he can only echo: "You're right."
Jim King smiled and said: "I have a lot of research on oil painting collection, man, I have been studying art collection since I was ten years old, if you like, I can share some experience with you."
Next, Li Du patiently listened to him and began to introduce his experience in art collection.
He wanted to ask the other party if he was interested in transferring the two paintings. Obviously, now only he knew the real value of the painting.
After talking for more than an hour, Jim Jin shut up.
Li Dugang wanted to find a reason to ask about the situation of the two paintings. Jim King said, "I can tell, good man, you have an extraordinary love for oil paintings in your heart. Then let me exchange a gift for you." How about some oil paintings?"
