Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 262 Sexy Marilyn

On the wall on the left is a small portrait, which is the head of a beautiful woman. Every American knows Marilyn Monroe, synonymous with sexiness!

The author of this portrait is also very familiar to Americans, that is Andy Warhol.

The portrait of "Marilyn Monroe" is one of Andy Warhol's most famous masterpieces. It is of high value and is frantically pursued by countless art collectors.

But, like other works of Andy Warhol, he painted not just one Marilyn Monroe, but many! No one even knows the exact number.

The most terrible thing is that these Marilyn. Monroe's shape is basically the same! It's just arranged in a slightly different way!

Some have one Marilyn Monroe head, some have four, and there are more, it makes people dizzy to look at!

The picture in front of me is a portrait of a head, and there is an identical one in the Museum of Modern Art in New York, maybe it is a work of the same period!

Strictly speaking, this is no longer a painting, it seems more appropriate to say that they are prints!

Because this is completely reproduced by Andy Warhol with screen printing technology! That's why there are so many of them!

But this does not affect the value of the painting!

Each of these paintings is of high value, and it is not uncommon for hundreds of millions of dollars to be auctioned!

The reason is that they were created by Andy Warhol, the master of pop art, and the most famous artistic genius of the twentieth century.

As long as it comes out of his hands, even a roll of toilet paper can become a work of art, and Americans recognize it! There is no reason to go at all!

Because it is screen printing, it also led to Andy Warhol all over the street, flooding!

Everyone can create his paintings, as long as he masters screen printing technology and downloads one of his works, anyone can experience the feeling of a pop art master!

Of course, only genuine works are valuable and recognized by the art market.

As for people's DIY works, they can only entertain themselves! Not worth a penny!

Because of these massive replicas, identifying Andy Warhol has become a difficult task. Even the most authoritative experts cannot guarantee 100% accuracy.

This is a problem for other identification experts,

But there was no difficulty for Ye Tian.

He only needs to look at the halo of the painting, and he can instantly understand whether it is from Andy Warhol or someone else's DIY!

At this moment, in Ye Tian's eyes, the "Marilyn Monroe" on the wall is undoubtedly the real thing! It is one of the most outstanding masterpieces of pop art! Enough to drive countless Andy Warhol fans crazy!

Ye Tian also had a rough estimate of the value of this painting, a masterpiece worth tens of millions of dollars!

He made these judgments based on the nearly twenty haloes that wrapped around the painting, and there was no better evidence than this! There is no stronger evidence than this!

All this can only be seen by him, and no one else knows anything about it.

No matter in the eyes of the owner of the restaurant, the guests, or even the staff of the Andy Warhol Museum not far away, or the eyes of appraisal experts, this is an ordinary replica, worthless!

As the pride of Pittsburgh, who doesn't have one or two reproductions of Andy Warhol! It’s no surprise that everyone has seen it for a long time!

Ye Tian could even think of the origin of this painting. Maybe the owner of the restaurant saw such a painting when he was strolling around that day. The decoration was decent, so he bought a replica and used it to decorate the restaurant!

But he couldn't imagine that this is an authentic work of Andy Warhol, and ten restaurants like him would have more than enough!

If you know this, no one would dare to hang a painting worth tens of millions of dollars in the public space of the restaurant, what a heart!

But this gave Ye Tian the best chance to make a fortune.

After reaching these basic judgments, he immediately turned on perspective and began to further observe the details of this famous painting.

The line of sight spanned a short distance in an instant, seeing all the details of this famous painting extremely thoroughly, including the street outside the wall, which was also clearly presented in Ye Tian's eyes.

Oil paints, canvases, etc., almost every detail is the same as the one in the Museum of Modern Art in New York, almost perfect!

The only regret is that Ye Tian did not find Andy Warhol's signature on this painting.

And the one in the Museum of Modern Art, with Andy's signature in the lower right corner, is enough to prove its identity!

Perhaps it is because of this that this painting is left behind among the people and appears here!

Afterwards, Ye Tian withdrew his perspective and made a decision.

"Restaurant owner, I'm sorry! Since you're blind, you're welcome! I won't let this famous painting end up in your hands!"

We must win this masterpiece, let alone let go of such a huge fortune, that is a crime! For myself, but also for this work!

But now is not the right time, when you leave after eating, you can take down this famous painting!

"Honey! Why did you stop?"

When Betty's voice came, Ye Tian was awakened immediately.

"It's all right! Sexy Marilyn is smiling at me, and I'm flattered and heartbroken, so I stop! Admire this beauty!"

Ye Tian casually made a joke with puns!

While speaking, he had already suppressed his excitement, reluctantly moved his eyes away from Marilyn Monroe's face, and looked at Betty beside him!

"Hahaha, Marilyn smiles at countless Americans every day, and you are just one of them, so there is no need to get excited!"

Jason answered with a smile, and the rest of them also smiled.

Apart from being slightly surprised, they had no other thoughts, and Betty was the same.

It was only a few seconds from when he stopped to when Betty woke him up.

Who would have thought that in such a short period of time, in the public space of the restaurant, he would find a famous painting worth tens of millions of dollars. Who would believe it?

"Yes! Marilyn belongs to the American people! It cannot be mine, but dear Betty belongs to me alone!"

Ye Tian continued to joke, not forgetting to express his love.

Hearing this, Betty immediately felt a little shy, and her face began to turn red, it was too straightforward! This is in a restaurant! At the same time, she also felt a burst of sweetness!

"Hahaha, Steven, it seems that I will call you Romeo in the future!"

Jason laughed and teased, and the others chuckled too.

Afterwards, everyone continued to walk to the dining table by the window.

After sitting down, the waiter immediately began to introduce the food here.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the 'Meat and Potatoes' restaurant. Our restaurant's signature dishes include special beef, sauced duck, fried chicken, cheese, roast pork,..."

While listening to the introduction, Ye Tian and the others were also looking at the recipes in their hands.

Soon, the waiter finished the introduction, and the ordering began.

"I want a special beef,..."

...

Enjoy the perfect meal, it's already seven o'clock in the evening!

Everyone was very satisfied with this special Italian dinner. After paying the meal and tips, everyone stood up and was about to get up and leave the restaurant.

"Everyone sit down for a while, I still have something to do, and then we will go back to the hotel!"

Ye Tian said aloud, preventing everyone from leaving.

It's time to implement the plan. This "Marilyn Monroe" belongs to my buddy, and I definitely didn't run away!

“Steven, what else is going on here?”

Jason asked in surprise, everyone was a little confused, what happened?

"It's not important, just watch and don't talk!"

Ye Tian replied with a smile, with an unpredictable expression.

Everyone was even more puzzled and interested, ready to see what he was going to do!

"Dude, please call your boss, I have something I want to talk to him"

Ye Tian smiled and said to the guy at the table, with a calm tone and an amiable attitude!

"Okay, Mr. Steven, please wait a moment, the boss is in the back office, I'll call right away!"

The waiter responded, turned around and walked quickly to the office area.

He had recognized Ye Tian a long time ago, and with the encouragement of a $100 tip, he was of course very happy to run errands.

When the waiter left, Ye Tian immediately whispered:

"Jason, take out your mobile phone and take a picture of all the communication between me and the restaurant owner. It will be useful later!"

"OK! Don't worry, I'm good at this job!"

Jason nodded excitedly, and the preparations will begin immediately!

The eyes of the rest of the people suddenly lit up. They all knew Ye Tian better, and they understood what he wanted to do in a blink of an eye.

Obviously, this guy found the baby again, this is the proof of preparation! Always so thoughtful! But what baby? Could it be Marilyn? '

The layout was completed quickly, and the owner of the restaurant just waited for him to come and get slaughtered!

Everyone was even more excited, waiting for the show to unfold.

Five or six minutes later, a fat white man in his forties in a suit walked to the table with the waiter just now.

"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening, welcome to Meat and Potatoes, it's an honor to meet you all, I'm Mazzoni, the owner of this restaurant!"

"Good evening, Mr. Mazzoni, I'm Steven, these are my friends, we are from New York!"

Ye Tian stood up, shook hands with Mazzoni, and gave an enthusiastic introduction.
