Chapter 1244: Qianlong’s Authentic Works Appear at Auction

Chapter 1245: Qianlong’s Authentic Works Appear at Auction
"It's good."

Qin Hao responded jokingly, leaning the painting against the corner of the table, "Let's wait and see what this 'artist' wants to tell us."

Qin Hao sat in the main seat in the conference room, with sunlight shining onto the table through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows.

He looked around to make sure all the core members were present.

"Hello everyone, we have called you here because we have a new opportunity to discuss."

Qin Hao went straight to the point.

“We are considering a cultural and art investment project, not only to enter the high-end art market, but also to enhance the visibility of our brand through the power of culture.”

Zhou Si nodded to show her understanding. She pushed the plan written in her notebook and suggested: "It's not just investment. We can hold a large art exhibition."

"In this way, our Takenaka brand can also take advantage of the 'art and culture' trend and conduct cross-border publicity for fashion and art."

"That's a good idea."

Qin Hao nodded in agreement and turned to other members to ask for their opinions.

Ah San scratched his head and said, "For this art exhibition, do we completely rely on Chengyi Culture as an intermediary, or do we have other cooperation plans? After all, this is a big move."

Qin Hao smiled, obviously having considered this issue: "We will mainly rely on Chengyi Culture, they have rich experience in this field."

"However, in order to increase our control, I am already considering bringing in more partners."

“White and Mawendi are also connections we can consider.”

Bai Lan interrupted, “And the Zheng family, we can use their resources to invite some well-known artists and collectors.”

"Okay, that's settled."

Qin Hao made the decision, "Zhou Si, you will be responsible for planning the specific matters of the art exhibition, including the connection with Chengyi Culture and the formulation of the brand promotion strategy."

"Asan, you will be responsible for the preparation of the venue and exhibition operations."

"Bai Lan, please pay more attention to market trends and ensure that our strategies keep pace with the times."

Everyone nodded.

Zhou Si quickly wrote down the key points in his notebook and had already started planning the specific activities in his mind.

After the meeting, Qin Hao walked out of the meeting room and went to the gallery in the company building alone.

At this time, the corridor was quiet and he was the only one there.

He walked over to a painting and stared at the fake one hanging on the wall.

Although it is a fake, it is made with great craftsmanship and it is almost impossible for non-professionals to tell that it is a fake.

Qin Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, his thoughts flying.

"This painting is not only a business opportunity,"

He thought to himself, "It may be the key to uncovering more mysteries."

The smudged tones in the painting seemed to imply some mystery, and he secretly decided to do a more in-depth investigation.

After coming out of the gallery, Qin Hao immediately took out his mobile phone, found White's name, and called him.

The phone rang a few times and then was connected.

"Hello, Mr. Qin, is there anything you need from me?"

"White, I'm considering launching a series of art auctions on the Duobao shopping platform,"

Qin Hao said straight to the point, "I want to test the market reaction, and I am also interested in finding some potential partners."

"Well, that's an interesting idea,"

White seemed quite interested. "But where do you plan to start? What kind of art will you auction?"

Qin Hao smiled slightly and replied: "Start with modern art and some rare antique artworks, as well as some high-quality imitations, but each piece must be strictly verified to ensure that its background is clear."

“Doing so will not only attract discerning customers, but will also extend our brand into a more premium market share.”

He added.

White thought for a moment and smiled and responded: "Then I will coordinate the platform's resources to see where we can provide support. We must promote it well before the launch to let our customers know that this auction is extraordinary."

"No problem. Thank you for your concern."

Qin Hao: "Our team will finalize the auction plan as soon as possible, and I will let Zhou Si contact you then."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries and hung up the phone.

"It's time to take action."

Qin Hao sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in his office, looking at the bustling city outside.

He knew that if he wanted to hold this art auction successfully, he had to plan every detail carefully.

He pressed the intercom and called Tianliang: "Tianliang, what's the situation?"

Soon, Tianliang's excited voice came from the other end of the phone: "I checked some of Liu Xian's previous auction records and found that he had some private transactions with the Donghai Art Museum."

"These transactions are not reflected in the public record, so there is obviously something fishy going on."

Qin Hao raised his eyebrows, obviously quite interested in this discovery: "Are there more details?"

"I'm still digging deeper, but from the information I've seen so far, Liu Xian seems to have accumulated a lot of capital through these transactions, and there may be some forces behind him supporting him."

Qin Hao nodded: "Great, let's continue investigating. We need more detailed information to see if there is any evidence we can use."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Hao pondered for a moment, then picked up his phone and sent a message to Zhou Si: "Zhou Si, come to my office, there are some things that need to be arranged."

About fifteen minutes later, Zhou Si appeared at the door of Qin Hao's office: "Brother Qin, what's the matter?"

"The art auction plan needs to be accelerated,"

Qin Hao said bluntly, "This market has great potential, and we must officially launch it before others."

Zhou Si nodded: "We are already preparing. We need to arrange more publicity to let all potential customers know the uniqueness and scarcity of this auction."

“By the way, we also need to follow up on the resource coordination with White. He will help us promote the platform.”

Qin Hao added.

"Understood. I will contact White immediately to ensure everything goes smoothly."

Zhou Si answered readily and prepared to leave.

"correct,"

Qin Hao suddenly remembered something. "If there are any unusual transactions in the auction, tell me immediately. That may be a great opportunity for us to understand our competitors."

"Don't worry, Brother Qin."

Zhou Si smiled, turned and left.

Qin Hao walked away from the window, his thoughts still immersed in the conversation with Tianliang.

In this complex art market, any speculation may affect the overall situation. At this moment, he heard a knock on the office door. It was Ma Wendi standing outside the door. Her arrival quickly brought Qin Hao back to his senses from his thoughts.

"Vice President Ma, please come in."

Qin Hao's tone was still enthusiastic and he invited her to sit down.

There is an underlying consensus between them.

After all, she was equally interested in Liu Xian's investigation.

"I heard you managed to acquire an important painting."

Ma Wendi got straight to the point, "I think Liu Xian is also paying a lot of attention to this."

“Yes, this auction did surprise me.”

Qin Hao sighed, took a sip from the teacup, and continued, "I always feel that in such an art market, there will always be people who use improper means to seek profits."

"You mean the case of forgeries?"

Ma Wendi keenly caught Qin Hao's hint.

"Yes, Liu Xian is good at walking between genuine and fake products. If we let him continue like this, I'm afraid the market order will be disrupted."

Qin Hao's eyes were steady.

Ma Wendi nodded. "I've also noticed something fishy. We can start with his transaction records and continue our investigation."

Just as the two were discussing countermeasures, Zhou Si sent a message saying that she was at the auction and was monitoring the movements of all parties.

After confirming the information, Qin Hao reminded Ma Wendi, "Guo Zhiqin seems to have not left yet. He has purchased many pieces of art. Perhaps we can learn more from him."

"Guo Zhiqin?"

Ma Wendi thought for a moment and said, "He has a historical transaction with Liu Xian. I will try to follow up."

The party hall was filled with luxurious decorations, and the huge crystal chandeliers cast soft light, making every decoration look particularly shiny.

Qin Hao returned to the venue with a black leather folder in his hand, which carefully wrapped the painting he had just successfully photographed.

On the table in the middle of the hall, the stands prepared for the exhibition had been placed, and those present were all well-known figures in the art world.

Qin Hao walked towards the center with a smile.

Zhou Si stood aside, watching everything quietly.

"Everyone, thank you very much for coming to the party tonight,"

Qin Hao opened the folder and carefully took out the painting. "I am very happy to share this painting with you. It caused quite a stir at the auction just now."

There were murmurs among the crowd, and everyone stared at the paintings on display.

As an authority in the art world, Zu Yuqing, who had been standing quietly in the corner, was now attracted to the front row of the crowd.

"Boss Qin, is this painting safe?"

Zu Yuqing pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and asked slowly, with a hint of caution in his tone.

Qin Hao nodded and answered firmly: "After preliminary appraisal, I believe in the value of this work."

There was a slight whisper in the air.

Zu Yuqing stepped forward, took out his portable magnifying glass, and began to carefully observe every detail of the scroll.

Everyone held their breath, staring at the changes in Zu Yuqing's expression.

Qin Hao stood aside, remaining calm.

"Look at the texture. This kind of skilled work is hard to replicate,"

Zu Yuqing's voice sounded slowly, with some excitement in his words, "Yes, this is indeed a genuine work from the Qianlong era, and it is completely consistent with the collection of the Palace Museum!"

The atmosphere in the room changed instantly, and the previous suspicion was replaced by amazement.

Voices of appreciation broke out among the people, and they congratulated Qin Hao one after another.

"My God, Mr. Qin, you are so lucky!"

Some people couldn't help but sigh.

Qin Hao just smiled and didn't say much.

The news that the painting was identified as an authentic work of Emperor Qianlong was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, and the crowd's focus was fixed on Qin Hao and the precious painting.

At this moment, Guo Zhiqin squeezed out of the crowd. He is a senior collector in the industry. When people around him saw him, they all made way for him.

He walked up to Qin Hao.

"Boss Qin, this authentic Qianlong painting is truly priceless,"

He said, "Name a price and I'll collect it."

Qin Hao smiled slightly, first glanced at the guests present, and then replied: "Mr. Guo, such a work should naturally be given to people who understand its value."

He paused, glanced at Zhou Si beside him, and saw her nodded at him, as if to say that she would support his decision no matter what.

Qin Hao continued, "I think 88 million is a suitable price."

Guo Zhiqin was in deep thought, seemingly planning how to raise this huge sum of money.

The onlookers were quietly waiting for his response.

"make a deal!"

Guo Zhiqin said anxiously.

Qin Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Si nodded slightly and said softly, "You really have a unique vision."

"We have to celebrate this time,"

Qin Hao leaned over to her and said, his face showing uncontrollable joy, "Why don't we treat everyone to a good meal tonight?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the guests present cheered one after another. They were all a little confused after witnessing such a transaction.

Many people have begun discussing how to learn from this savvy investor and strive for more cooperation opportunities in the future.

At this time, White came forward and patted Qin Hao on the shoulder, "Boss Qin, I can't be missing from the show tonight. But having said that, your business sense is really admirable."
