Chapter 264 Operation Yanjing
Yang Jing is very satisfied with Mike Aller's work. The precious antiques and artworks in front of him are enough to prove that Mike Aller has not slacked off in the past two years.
In the vault of a Swiss bank in Cayman, Yang Jing saw [-] oil paintings, all of which were from some famous painters in Europe and America, but most of them were works by American painters.
Among these oil paintings, there are many works by Andrew Wyeth, the most famous painter in the United States in the last century, works by the famous Fauvist painter Henri Matisse, who is as famous as Picasso, and the famous French court art master in the first half of the seventeenth century. Works representing Simon Houye, as well as the works of Norman Rockwell, an American realist painter who died just three years ago in this era, and the works of Albert Bierstadt, the most famous American landscape painter in the last century. work
What surprised Yang Jing the most was that Mike Aller even bought a Picasso's work "Girl of Avignon".
This is an amazing work. The size of this "Girl of Avignon" is 244 cm * 234 cm. It is a rare large-scale work among Picasso's works.It's just that Yang Jing knew that this work should have been collected by the Museum of Modern Art in New York, but for some reason it was bought by Mike Aller.
Seeing that Yang Jing was interested in this painting, Mike Aller said with a smile: "This painting is a Picasso auction in Cannes this June. This painting was auctioned at a price of 1200 US dollars. This painting is also the painting that I have spent the most money in the past two years."
"Only $1200 million?" Yang Jing asked in surprise.
"What's the matter? 1200 million is already very expensive, okay?" Mike Aller said a little excitedly, "I took this picture after bidding with many people. If you didn't give me so much money, this painting wouldn't be worth it at all." It won’t reach me, and I still have all the procedures for the auction at that time.”
Yang Jing raised a hand and said, "Sorry, Mike, I didn't mean that, you may have misunderstood me. I'm just surprised that this painting is so cheap, only $1200 million."
In 2015, Picasso's "Women of Algiers (Version O)" sold for a sky-high price of US$1.79 million at Christie's New York auction, which is also the most expensive painting in Picasso's life.However, this "Woman of Algiers (Version O)" is recognized as inferior to "The Girl of Avignon" in terms of size and artistry.It's just that the work "Girl of Avignon" has been treasured by the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and no one knows what a sky-high price this work will fetch if it goes up for auction.
Yang Jing carefully looked at the "Girl of Avignon", and saw some unusual signatures in the lower right corner of the painting - Picasso, "Girl of Avignon", first edition.
After discovering these words, Yang Jing suddenly realized.Mr. Picasso painted tens of thousands of works in his life, which has a lot to do with the fact that he often painted the same painting several times, such as the "Women of Algiers", which Picasso painted in total A full fifteen.
Since Picasso had this habit, it is not surprising that this painting of "The Girl of Avignon" was painted twice.The most important thing is that this painting is still the first edition, so it is even rarer, and its value is even higher than the "Avignon Girl" in the New York Museum of Art!
But now this painting has actually fallen into the hands of Mike Aller, and the price is only 1200 million US dollars, which is really a bit of a surprise.
However, Yang Jing felt relieved after thinking about it. It is now 1981, and Picasso had died less than ten years ago. It is also an absolute huge sum of money.
It is not an exaggeration at all, in 1981, 1200 million US dollars is definitely no worse than 30 million US dollars 1.2 years later!
"Boss, I like the job you gave me, but it also makes me very distressed." Seeing Yang Jing admiring the sixteen oil paintings, Mike Ale started to complain.
"Huh? What's the matter? Does spending money also make you feel distressed?" Yang Jing turned his head and asked with a smile.
"Sometimes too much money can't be spent. It's a kind of distress. That's exactly what I want to say." Mike Aller shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Boss, you have a lot of money in your hand and you can spend it as you like." Hua, this is really a kind of happiness, but also, you gave me too much money, and the goal you set for me was to spend 7000 million dollars a year, but now, two years have passed, and I There's another $[-] million I don't know where to spend it."
Yang Jing stopped admiring those oil paintings, but patted Mike Al on the shoulder and said: "Mike, you don't have to worry about these things, you can spend as much as you can, I am very satisfied with what you are doing now, so , in the next few years, I hope you can continue to do this and strive to acquire more oil paintings like this."
"Boss, are you investing in art?" Mike Alle thought for a while before finally asking the question in his heart.
Yang Jing smiled and said, "You can think so too. In fact, under the current circumstances, investing in art is also a pretty good investment project."
"Okay, Boss, this kind of investment can only be afforded by a billionaire like you, so I can only serve you."
Yang Jing smiled and said, "How is the other thing I entrusted to you?"
"You mean about Huaxia Yanjing?"
Yang Jing nodded.After the London gold investment last time, when Yang Jing was about to leave the Cayman Islands, he discussed with Mike Aller and formulated a plan called "Operation Yanjing". What Yang Jing is asking now is the implementation of this plan .
"It's going well there. As you said, Huaxia urgently needs dollars now. I've been there twice, and I've really experienced the urgency."
After a pause, Mike Aller continued: "As you ordered, I went to Yanjing last summer. I have to say that it is really a beautiful and simple city." Mike Aller praised , "And the authorities over there really need dollars. I just followed what you said. When I told the local government that the Dragon Fund was going to invest 1000 million US dollars in public welfare funds to invest in the Three North Shelter Forest, I was immediately alarmed. When I transferred the 1000 million US dollars to the designated account, a deputy prime minister over there even met me personally. Very excited to meet the leaders."
Yang Jing thought to himself: "Can we not disturb the high-level leaders? In the late 70s and early 80s, China's demand for foreign exchange was the strongest period, and that period was also the period when China's foreign exchange reserves were the least. If you don't say anything else, just talk about it." Last year in 1980, the US dollar reserves of the entire China were less than 1981 million US dollars. Even in 27, the US dollar reserves of China were only 1000 billion US dollars. Let Mike Aller throw out the [-] million US dollars, for that For China at that time, it was definitely a great foreign exchange."
Mike Aller was still a little excited, "When the Vice Premier met me, I promised to invest another 2000 million US dollars, and what I wanted to do in Yanjing became extremely simple."
"According to what you said, I bought a huge manor near a lake behind the famous imperial city. That manor is really big. I estimate that it must be at least 50 square feet. Because I bought it in U.S. dollars, and it turned out that it only cost 200 U.S. dollars. Oh Maiga, I can’t imagine that such a big manor only needs such a small amount of money. It’s just that the manor is too dilapidated, and I Another full [-] million U.S. dollars was invested to renovate the manor, and now it is estimated that the manor has been repaired."
For Mike Aller, the courtyard house covering an area of more than 3000 square meters is a manor.
Hearing this, Yang Jing nodded in satisfaction.
When Yang Jing traveled here to invest in London Gold last month, he took a trip to Yanjing and stayed in Yanjing for more than a week. In fact, he was looking for a suitable courtyard house.
Because the holy ring once said that as long as the property rights of those courtyard houses in the original time and space belong to the public or foreigners, then Yang Jing’s purchase in the shuttle time and space will not cause the paradox of time and space, so Yang Jing chose the original time and space. The famous courtyard house.
The courtyard house is located on the northern edge of Houhai, and there is only a small road between it and Houhai.That courtyard is the famous Hai courtyard, which was bought by a Russian oil tycoon at a price of 2007 million national currency in 1.1. It was the most expensive courtyard in Yanjing that year.
Even in 2017, that quadrangle courtyard was the top courtyard in Yanjing. With an area of more than 3000 square meters, it is also the best among the private courtyards within the second ring road of Yanjing. In 2017, the value of that courtyard was said to have exceeded 15 billion yuan.
With such a good yard, Yang Jing is naturally unwilling to let it fall into the hands of foreigners.
Damn, you old man ran to the capital of our country and bought the best courtyard house in our capital, how embarrassing is this for us?
Therefore, Yang Jing naturally set his sights on the set of Hai Siheyuan, which can be called sky-high price in later generations.
However, Yang Jing still doesn't intend to do it himself. It is safest to let Mike Aller do it for such a matter that involves various property rights in the original time and space.
However, for this yard, Yang Jing is not without paying.Of course, this kind of dedication is nothing to Yang Jing.
He used the name of the evil dragon fund to invest 3000 million US dollars in the development of the Three North Shelter Forest, which itself has a public welfare nature.Yang Jing is very clear about the environment of Yanjing in later generations, but now that he has made a lot of money from foreigners, it is still meaningful for Yang Jing to give back to his motherland.
I didn't have this kind of ability before, but now I have this kind of ability. As a Chinese descendant, Yang Jing thinks it is necessary to repay the environmental protection cause of his motherland.
The most important thing is that with this kind of pure public welfare investment, it will be more convenient for Mike Aller to work in China.
Using the money earned from foreigners to contribute to the environmental protection cause of one's own country, and by the way, to make things more convenient for one's own, this is simply killing two birds with one stone.
If it weren't for this 3000 million US dollars of public welfare investment, Mike Aller would never have bought that courtyard house in Yanjing, let alone bought some old objects in Yanjing.
But now with this investment, Mike Aller not only bought the courtyard house easily, but Yang Jing told him to buy old objects in that era, and it went smoothly.
Although Yang Jing hadn't seen those old objects yet, through Mike Aller's introduction, he knew that the planned "Operation Yanjing" was going very smoothly.
PS: Bow down and thank "Ziyan Tianjiao" and "Frozen Octave" for their 100 rewards.
