"possible?"
Mei Yanqing seemed to have heard some joke, and laughed out of breath,
"Before these fake paintings are exhibited and sold in galleries and other places, they need to be appraised by a special person. After confirming that there is no problem, they can be allowed to enter the market. One or two is fine, but there are so many—you still say, yes' Might' be a problem!?"
For a painting to be sold smoothly, it has to go through a lot of steps. It is understandable that there are occasional mistakes, but judging from this summary data, it is really abnormal.
You know, many of them have cooperated with the Painting Association. Now that the problem is so serious, if you think about it with your brain, you know that the Painting Association is absolutely inseparable.
And that doesn't include those deals that are done privately.
These people from the Painting Association have a high status in the painting circle and are respected outside.
To put it bluntly, in the eyes of many people, they have reliable channels and are professionals themselves. It seems much more credible to sell and buy paintings through them.
This must have further promoted the circulation of fake paintings in the domestic market.
The scale of interests involved is almost unimaginable.
Mei Yanqing's words were not polite, she really didn't save Shi Yang any face.
Everyone looked at Shi Yang one after another, with different expressions.
But Shi Yang has always been gentle and refined, and never confronts people head-on, especially when he is facing Mei Yanqing at this time.
He was silent for a moment, then lowered his head slightly:
"You're right."
Mei Yanqing's brows and eyes carried a heavy coercion, and said coldly:
"Chai Shiming, the vice president of Yitang Gallery, was summoned by the police this morning to cooperate with the investigation. If there are still people who don't know, let me remind you: he and Tao Siwen are relatives."
He said, looking at Shen Li,
"A Li, your fake painting of "Seventeenth Night" was exhibited in a gallery, right?"
Shen Li nodded: "Yes."
Shi Yang looked over, his eyes stayed on her face for a moment, and then quickly moved away.
Many people looked at each other in blank dismay.
In fact, they all knew about it, after all, it was because of this that the news that Shen Li was the shadow of the tree was exposed.
At the same time, it was also that time that they found out that she was Mei Yanqing's youngest closed disciple.
At that time, it almost shocked most of the painting world.
Mei Yanqing's eyes swept across the crowd, as if with invisible coercion:
"Yitang Gallery is a well-known gallery in China. It stands to reason that such a major mistake should not have occurred. Now that Chai Shiming and Tao Siwen have been investigated, it is enough to prove that there is a problem with their gallery itself. Who were responsible for cooperating with Yitang Gallery at that time?"
In the almost suffocating silence, a man in his thirties slowly raised his hand and spoke with difficulty:
"May, Chairman May, it's me... But, but I really don't know what's going on!"
This short sentence, he stammered, and finally finished speaking, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
Shen Li glanced at him.
At this time, whether you know it or not, of course you will say you don't know.
Now that Tao Siwen's matter has been exposed, the police will definitely investigate to the end. No one wants to be involved in it. Of course, he can get rid of it as cleanly as possible.
In addition, although he was responsible for this matter, there were actually many more people involved, such as those who assisted in the identification of paintings and so on.
Mei Yanqing frowned, her tone was quite impatient:
"You don't need to talk nonsense to me. Whether you are innocent or not, when the truth comes out, it will all be clear."
The man's lips moved, and he wanted to explain a few more words for himself, but meeting Mei Yanqing's expression, he swallowed all those words back.
What's more, what Mei Yanqing said was indeed reasonable.
Realizing the seriousness of the matter, everyone fell silent.
Meiyan's face was clear and serious, and she said word by word:
"So, from today onwards, everyone must cooperate with the police investigation. In addition, the Painting Association is also launching a self-inspection at the same time. If you are involved in the fake painting, you should stand up for yourself, and if you know it, actively report it. Be lenient. Anyone who conceals and refuses to report, once found out later...you can decide for yourself!"
The quiet needle drop could be heard in the conference hall.
Mei Yanqing didn't expect them to say anything in person.
He stood up, his eyes fell on everyone's shoulders again, especially when he stayed on Shi Yang for a moment, and then he snorted coldly:
"That's all I've said, some people - just do it for themselves!"
After speaking, he lifted his foot and left.
Yu Pingchuan immediately followed.
Shen Li then stood up and walked around the conference table.
When passing by Shi Yang's side, he suddenly turned his head to look over, and stopped her.
"Shen Li."
Shen Li stood still and met his gaze.
"Mr. Shi Yang, is there anything else you want to say?"
Shi Yang looked at her quietly, the color of his eyes under the lens was not clear.
Chai Shiming was investigated, and the things about Yitang Gallery probably couldn't be covered.
The situation on Tao Siwen's side is probably even worse.
If you are not careful, those things will flow out of the torn hole of a gallery.
And this opening - all started from Shen Li's "Seventeenth Night".
He smiled faintly:
"It's nothing, I just want to say, Mr. Mei is getting old, and he had an operation before, so he needs to be taken care of. It's our fault for making him worry so much about this time. Take care of Mr. Mei more when you go back. , His body is the most important thing. As for these things... we will deal with it ourselves, please don't worry too much. "
In the meeting just now, Mei Yanqing did not give Shi Yang a good face from the beginning to the end, and his words were quite blunt and harsh.
However, at this time, Shi Yang's attitude was still so gentle and refined, and he even cared about Mei Yanqing's body.
Anyone who reads it, I'm afraid they will sigh with emotion, this kind of heart and temper are really rare.
Shen Li and him looked at each other for a moment, a faint smile curled up on the corner of her lips, but the smile didn't reach the corner of her eyes:
"Thank you Teacher Shi Yang for your concern."
After speaking, she lifted her legs and left.
When they all walked out, the atmosphere in the meeting hall was still quite depressing.
Shi Yang looked around and said softly:
"Everyone must have understood what Elder Mei instructed just now?"
