Carol was a little surprised:
"There's nothing you can't say about this, but if you ask this?"
Shen Li explained:
"You just said that you only found out that it was a fake some time ago. If you guessed right, you should have heard about a gallery."
Carol nodded:
"right."
If Shen Li hadn't personally come forward to prove that the painting was fake, that fake would probably have already been sold at a high price.
This matter was widely circulated in domestic painting circles, and Carol also heard about the shadow of the tree later, so he made a special trip to understand the whole story.
After thinking about it, he realized that the painting he saw earlier was fake.
Shen Li said:
"The origin of the fake painting in Yitang Gallery is unknown, and the source has not been found so far. So I doubt whether it is the one you saw before."
"I see."
When she said this, Carol instantly understood,
"You are still checking who made that fake painting?"
"yes."
In fact, there is no shortage of fake paintings in the painting market.
The temptation of huge profits lies here, and there are so many fakes that it is impossible to find out all of them.
But the one that appeared in a gallery can almost be mistaken for the real one.
Shen Li must investigate thoroughly.
Carol looked regretful:
"Tangtang, I'm afraid I will disappoint you. That painting is not in the hands of my student. He was just copying a photo of "Seventeenth Night". That's when I bumped into him."
"According to what he said, he saw it by accident in an art gallery in Liland, and because he liked it so much, he took that photo."
The name Tree Shadow was not very well known abroad at the time, but he only learned about it from that photo.
Shen Li's eyebrows jumped:
"Lyland? So that's where the forgery first appeared?"
Why is it there.
Liland and Baicheng are more than 300 kilometers apart, but they belong to two different countries.
Unlike the first-tier international cities like Baicheng, Lilan's economy is relatively not so developed, and the pace of life is slow. Because it is near the sea, the climate is suitable, and it has a very long history of the Renaissance and a strong artistic atmosphere. It is a tourist attraction for many art lovers. holy place.
"That's not certain. Maybe the painting was taken to Liland, and I don't know."
Carol Road.
Shen Li was lost in thought.
What he said was not unreasonable.
"Then can you tell me, when did your student see that painting?"
Carroll recalled for a moment:
"It seems to be the end of September last year?"
That was before the exhibition in a gallery.
"Then, do you know the name of that art gallery?"
Carol shook her head:
"I'm not sure about this, but if you want to know, I can ask for you."
Shen Li breathed a sigh of relief:
"Then thank you very much."
She lowered her eyes slightly.
The personal information of the painter of the fake painting received before, except for a name, there is no other information.
Perhaps it should be investigated from Lilan, but it happened to be Lilan, so I'm afraid it will be more troublesome.
"It's just a small matter, why are you so polite?"
Carol seemed very interested.
"But you seem to attach great importance to this matter? Oh, yes, the other party has imitated your painting after all. It is indeed better to find out about this matter."
"This is one of the reasons." Shen Li pulled her thoughts away from her distant memory, and looked up at Carol, "There is another point, because the fake painting appeared in a gallery. You may not know, Their art exhibition was co-organized with the Art Association. It is also Master's intention to investigate this matter."
The Art Association cooperates with some top galleries every year, and the art exhibition of Yitang Gallery was originally a normal event.
But a fake painting appeared inside, which was a major mistake.
Before finding out the truth, no one can guarantee whether there are any people from the Painting Association involved in it, secretly tampering.
Mei Yanqing is the chairman of the National Painting Association, and he hated this kind of thing, but now he has faked Shen Li's painting. He has specifically ordered the entire painting association to conduct a strict investigation from top to bottom.
However, he is old now, and he just had an operation some time ago. Although he is recovering well, his energy is limited after all.
This matter finally fell into Shen Li's hands.
Carol nodded knowingly.
In this case, it is easy to understand.
Shen Zhijin looked at Shen Li, she seldom paid so much attention to one thing, which shows that she really takes this matter very seriously.
"Haven't heard you mention it before?" He asked in a low voice.
Shen Li smiled:
"Yes, the people from the Painting Association are mainly investigating, and because there are not many clues, the matter has been shelved, so I didn't mention it too much. I didn't expect to find a breakthrough from Uncle Carol. It was also a surprise. gone."
She thanked Carol again.
"Speaking of which, Tangtang, when you have time in the future, you can also go to Lilan to see the scenery there is very nice." Carol sipped his red wine, "It is the birthplace of the Renaissance, a true art sanctuary. Du, it would be a pity if you don’t go there.”
Shen Li has a very high talent for painting, so she should like it there.
Hearing what he said, Shen Li's eyes flickered slightly, and she nodded with a smile:
"I hope to have this opportunity."
Carol didn't chat with Shen Li for too long, although he also likes her very much, but tonight is her pro-recognition banquet, and many celebrities came.
She also had to greet those people.
The Gu family held this banquet grandly and grandly, just to officially recognize her identity and let her enter this circle.
In fact, there are some people here, she had seen the last time she came to Hong Kong City.
It's just that starting tonight, she re-acquainted with them as Shen Li from the Gu family.
The kinship recognition banquet didn't end until after ten o'clock in the evening.
The guests left one after another.
Shen Li finally returned to Suyue Mountain with Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu.
Of course, although the marriage recognition banquet is over, there are still many excitements related to it.
Apart from the fact that the Gu family's painstakingly prepared family-recognition banquet itself was staggering, Gu Tingfeng and the other masters of the Gu family made generous moves to give Shen Li gifts in different ways to make her happy. Everyone waits.
I thought that New Year's Day was enough extravagance, but whoever thought it would be more amazing is yet to come.
The entire Crescent Island, five piers, specially built galleries, Watada Racecourse.
Whichever one is taken out is enough to be enviable.
Not to mention, all of these were given to Shen Li alone.
And the most important thing is that these are only on the surface.
With the assets of the Gu family, I'm afraid there will be more undisclosed ones.
At the same time, there were two gossip news that spread rapidly among the celebrities in Hong Kong City.
—About Yan Fei and Xu Yini.
