Chapter [186] You French are too stingy

The next day was dawn in France and late night in China.

Through the Internet, Ross also saw the voices of terrorists in the Middle East provoking China from Europe, but Ross didn't take it seriously at all.

There are many terrorists who provoke China, how could Ross associate the guy on TV with Lao Liu's enemy.

Ross didn't expect that Old Liu, that big bastard, was already desperate to send troops to the Middle East under his anger.

France, Louvre.

In order to entertain dignitaries from various countries, President Brown led a group of people to visit the Louvre in France, and Ross was of course among them.

Known as the Palace of All Treasures, the Louvre covers an area of ​​55,000 square meters, almost half the size of Yuta Corporation.

It displays the oil painting of the world's three rare treasures "Mona Lisa", the statue of "Venus" and the statue of "Goddess of Victory". In addition, there are a large number of antiques and rare treasures from all over the world.

Ross stood in front of the oil painting of "Mona Lisa" and carefully observed the oil painting. In fact, Ross didn't understand art at all. To him, this painting was just a character image! What's the big deal, why is it worth $1 billion.

Ross is not interested in paintings, but is very interested in the author of the paintings, Leonardo da Vinci.

In the history of human scientists, there are two great geniuses who surpassed human imagination and thinking. They were able to design the future of human beings hundreds of years ago. These two wizards are Da Vinci and Tesla.

More than 500 years ago, Da Vinci designed machine guns, manpower or horse-drawn armed tanks, submunitions, military parachutes, diving suits made of pigskin with breathing hoses, and so on. Other inventions included the submarine, the gear mechanism that was interpreted as the first mechanical computer, and the first programmable mobile robot that was misinterpreted as a clockwork car. In addition, during Leonardo's years in the Vatican, he planned to use solar energy to boil water using concave mirrors.

Leonardo da Vinci's manuscript notes were purchased by technology tycoon Bill Gates for $30 million.

And Tesla. This low-key scientist who is almost forgotten, many of his inventions have been applied to reality: such as alternating current, x-rays, photography technology, radio, radar, fax machines, vacuum tubes, neon light tubes, and AC wires. His 700 patents, more than 1,000 inventions co-developed, and countless inventions he helped to influence the future of mankind.

Many of Tesla's ideas have become reality, such as: computers, networks, satellites, and even various magical technologies that humans have never mastered.

Everything about Tesla. Sealed forever by the U.S. government. Throughout the history of Nobel Prize winning, the proportion of scientists who were inspired to win the Nobel Prize in Physics by studying Tesla accounted for 27%, and the rate of indirect inspiration exceeded 65%.

Also a scientist, Ross is full of respect for great scientists.

So he stared at the painting of the "Mona Lisa" for a long time, and Ross didn't see much art. From the painting, he felt the mocking of Mona Lisa. It's like an omnipotent wise man laughing at the ignorance and ignorance of human beings, and laughing at the fact that human beings will kill each other for war.

In addition to Leonardo da Vinci's oil paintings, I want Ross to take a peek at the genius's thinking and other European and American cultural relics. Ross wasn't much interested.

Some of the rare treasures in the Louvre attracted Rose's attention. The Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded the Qing Dynasty and took away many national treasures, which are now lying in foreign museums. The total number is said to be one million or more.

Among them, there are a large number of Chinese cultural relics in the Louvre, and Ross made a rough estimate. There are about 12,000 pieces of porcelain cultural relics from the Chinese dynasties alone, and more than 200 pieces of paintings from the Tang and Song Dynasties.

Ross stared at those Chinese ceramics in a daze, and President Brown felt something. He walked over with a smile: "Mr. Ross, you are a distinguished guest from France, and you have greatly helped France. In order to express gratitude, France intends to send you some Huaxia's ceramics are a thank you to you. If you like it, you can choose whatever you want."

Rose shook his head: "It's too few to pick a few, how about letting me bring some back?"

President Brown was embarrassed: "Although these cultural relics belong to China, but...but now, they belong to the property of France, I... I dare not use the power of the president casually, and give you too much."

Ross was upset: "Aren't you French being too stingy? My technology has helped you save so much military expenses, and bio-oil has helped you save so much fuel expenses. Send some gifts, just a few cultural relics. I will help you The cost saved is enough to buy all these cultural relics and pack them back. If you are so stingy, the biological oil will not be exported to you, go to the Middle East to buy it.”

"Mr. Ross, you... don't be angry, I'll discuss it with French officials."

President Brown was in a hurry, turned around immediately, and ran to make a call.

After a while, President Brown came over with a smile: "Mr. Ross, in view of your help to France, the congressmen and cabinet officials agree to present you with 300 pieces of fine ceramics as a thank you."

Ross frowned: "Fack, let me help you save more than 10 billion euros a year in France. It is equivalent to 75 billion to hundreds of billions of RMB, and 300 pieces will be given away! These cultural relics can be sold at auction, and they can be auctioned for 200 million. One piece of RMB? I even look down on the stinginess of the French. These are cultural relics of our country. You snatched them away without paying a penny. Now I help you and bring some back. I’m so stingy. I don’t care. , I’ll bring 1,000 pieces back to China first.”

Regardless of whether the French agree or not, Ross called the leader and asked the officials accompanying him to come and help him move the cultural relics.

Brown is really in a hurry now, Rose is robbing the Louvre for no apparent reason!

But...but what about the robbery? Could it be that stopping Ross for these ceramics and offending him would cause France to suffer heavy losses.

In a hurry, Brown contacted other French officials. After some discussion, he finally decided that if the cultural relics could bring France tens of billions to tens of billions of euros in annual benefits, it would be fine to send a thousand pieces to China.

In desperation, President Brown could only be a favor, speaking on the spot in the Louvre. In order to thank China for its help to France and to help the two countries establish a long-term friendship, France is willing to return a thousand pieces of Chinese cultural relics as a thank you.

Ross looked cheerfully at those Chinese officials carrying the ceramics, and felt extremely proud: "People are really cheap, I let you give them away, but if you don't give them away, you have to let me grab them. Haha...you can open a private museum after you return to China Yes. If Britain asks me in the future, I will go to the British Museum to dig up some cultural relics and return to China.”

Ross is now happy to command, those Chinese officials who usually only know how to command others, let them work hard to move cultural relics, these fat guys with big ears can finally come in handy.

Ross himself was not polite, rolled up several paintings from the Tang and Song Dynasties in front of the crowd, and put them in his backpack.

When President Brown and a group of high-ranking French officials saw Ross taking away the painting, they wanted to say: Hello! Hello! Hello! We only gave you ceramics, but no paintings, why did you take them away!

But when the words came to his mouth, he endured them all. He gave away a thousand pieces of ceramics. He argued with Ross over a few paintings, and he had to be called stingy again. (To be continued.)
