Yang Jing won’t worry too much about what happened next. With Zhao Meng here, Yang Jing believes that the adjustment of the Dragon Fund can be completed smoothly.

In the days before these senior executives arrived, Yang Jing explained the situation of the Dragon Fund to Zhao Meng in detail, and this kind of adjustment is not very difficult. With Zhao Meng's ability, if he can't even do this well, he can't be a ceo.

These core executives have to stay in Tianqu for one or two days. During this time, they have to cooperate with Zhao Meng to come up with a complete adjustment plan and finally hand it over to Yang Jing for review.

Yang Zhengyu and Chen Zesheng, who received the news, led their subordinates to invite these senior executives to a banquet. Although the superiors were still reviewing the decision passed by the Standing Committee of the Tianqu Municipal Party Committee, both Yang Zhengyu and Chen Zesheng believed that the superiors could definitely pass it.

After all, this is a good thing for someone to invest, and the main investment is mainly aimed at Tianqu’s basic people’s livelihood. This is definitely a good thing. It’s a great thing, and there is no reason for the above to refuse such investment.

These core executives of the Dragon Fund are the perfect God of Wealth. Whether Tianqu can truly take off in the future will still be counting on these blonde and blue-eyed foreigners. Therefore, it is definitely not a wrong way to build relationships in advance at this time.

The executives of these Dragon Fund are all very talented, and those with less emotional intelligence cannot achieve such a position. Of course, they know that these officials are parents and officials of the boss’s hometown. It is a good thing to have good relationships with these officials in any aspect, so they are willing to establish good relationships with Tianqu’s officials.

As for Yang Jing, he accompanied Henry and David to visit the upcoming Grand Canal Museum. The Grand Canal Museum is scheduled to open on August 18th, more than ten days later. Now it is almost done, and it is only waiting to be opened for public visits.

Henry and David are both veteran core senior executives of the Dragon Fund. Yang Jing has changed his identities now, so even if he is the boss, he should show enough respect to these two. As for Henry and David, he is also curious about what antique artworks have been tricked for the boss over the years. They know that the treasures that Old Mike has collected over the years have been transferred to the boss, and they also know that the boss himself is also a collector, so they both want to see the boss’s collection.

"Oh Maiga! Boss, your collection really opened my eyes!" Before Henry entered the Dragon Fund, he was already a big figure on Wall Street. He also had a very high ability to identify antique art. Although he didn't know much about antique art from the East, the collections in this museum are not just antique art from the East.

David was not interested in this before, but in the years since he retired, because he had a wealth of wealth, he gradually gained a certain understanding of antique art. So like Henry, he was shocked when he saw these treasures in front of him.

"Boss, this is not really the original work of Michelangelo, is it?" David and Henry asked this question almost in unison in the "West Art Hall" on the second floor of the museum.

In front of them, a bronze "David" about one and a half meters high was quietly standing in the bulletproof glass cabinet. The slightly dark surface of the body emitted a charming light under the light.

"Yes, this is indeed written by Michelangelo. This sculpture has been identified by Carbon 14 and was confirmed to be created in 1501, before Michelangelo took over Argstino and began to create the marble "David". This bronze sculpture should be a model created by Michelangelo before he created the marble "David"." Yang Jing explained.

Henry and David gathered on the nameplate in front of the bronze "David" and looked down. After reading it, they asked in surprise: "Boss, is this bronze "David" really what you found from the wreck?"

"That's right. Michelangelo was unmarried for life and had no children. It is said that after the marble "David" was completed, because the marble "David" belonged to the Florentine government, he had no right to own it, so he could only carefully treasure the model, that is, the bronze "David". After Michelangelo's death in 1564, the model was transferred to his students. Many years later, the model was transferred to the hands of Mitice, Duke of Florence. The collector admired Michelangelo's sculpture art and works very much. After obtaining the model of "David", he hid it in an unknown place in his home. Unfortunately, a fire in 1690 swept the city of Florence. The duke's home was not spared and burned beyond recognition and was terrible. After the fire, the model disappeared."

Henry nodded and said, "I have heard of this rumor. But as far as I know, Friedlek Hart, a scholar who studies the European Renaissance at the University of Virginia in the United States, said that the long-lost David model has been found in Geneva. According to Hart, he found the model in Geneva in 1986. He found that it is very similar to the original work of David, and the model character also has a suspender on the back, but the head and limbs are incomplete. In addition, the industry believes that the bronze model Hart found is the David model made by Michelangelo himself."

Yang Jing laughed and pointed to the silent bronze sculpture in front of him and said, "Henry, if you ask me to judge, which of this bronze statue or the broken bronze statue found by Hart is more like the original work of Michelangelo? And you have also seen the explanation nameplate just now. The treasure I found in that shipwreck is most likely the treasure of the last tsar in the legend. Just the power of the Romanov dynasty, how could they collect a fake?"

Henry nodded and stopped talking, but David said, "In fact, it is very simple to distinguish the authenticity. You only need to scan the three-dimensional data of this bronze "David" and expand it to see if it can match the marble "David", which is enough to prove the authenticity of this bronze "David". The model found by Hart is too incomplete and cannot prove that it is the real model. But the bronze "David" found by the boss is different. This is a complete bronze "David".

Yang Jing nodded with a smile. The older David is, the higher his emotional intelligence will be, and it is far from comparable to his emotional intelligence in his youth.

"David was right. Actually, I have done this. It's just that I can't get the three-dimensional data of the marble "David", so I haven't had the final comparison yet. However, when my museum opened and the news about the bronze "David" was revealed, I believe the administrators of the Florence Academy of Fine Arts will be unable to calm down..."

Henry smiled and said, "Yes, they will definitely come to him."

Then, when Henry and David saw the other two bronze statues, even David said this: "Boss, in fact, there is no need to identify the bronze "David" just now. With these two bronze sculptures, the true identity of the bronze "David" just now is irrefutable."

Henry looked excitedly at the bronze "Discus Thrower" in front of him, unable to speak for a long time. Everyone knows that the existing "Discus Thrower" is all imitations, and the real "Discus Thrower" is a bronze sculpture. The artistic value of "Discus Thrower" is definitely not below "David". Even among the top ten recognized sculptures in the world, Master Miron's "Discus Thrower" ranks first, "David" ranks second, and "Venus with Broken Arm" is the third!

If this bronze "Discus Thrower" was the original work of Master Milong, the sensation it caused would even be even more than that bronze "David"!

As for the bronze "Picture of a Child Holding a Goose", it is also a treasure that many people think is enough to be included in one of the top ten sculptures in the world!

If only one of these three bronze sculptures appeared, perhaps the authenticity of this sculpture would be controversial. However, these three bronze sculptures appeared at the same time, and were all discovered from the treasures suspected to be the last tsar. Then the authenticity of these three bronze sculptures almost does not need to be identified.

What shocked Henry David even more was that among the treasures exhibited in this "West Art Hall", there are more than these three bronze sculptures.

Just looking at the oil paintings hanging on the walls is enough to shock the two of them to speak again.

Could the two oil paintings hanging side by side behind bulletproof glass be really the original works of "Leeda and the Swan" and "Portrait of the Sculptor" created by Da Vinci? If these two paintings are really the original works of Da Vinci, then this museum is truly amazing.

What? Are the paintings hanging in parallel there really the original works of "The Virgin Under the Tree" and "The Smile of the Virgin" created by Raphael? David and Henry were almost speechless.

Ah? And? These are two authentic works of Ingre? These are two authentic works of Cézanne? And, whose painting is this? Christ Jesus, is it the original works of Rusbon? Is this the original works of Monet? And this, is it the original works of Rembrandt...

Oh Maiga, in front of these famous paintings, those paintings of Picasso and Van Gogh can only be regarded as the younger brothers...

There are also the original manuscripts of famous artists over there, those medieval European gold coins, those Faberge easter eggs that I had never heard of, those golden scepters, and golden armor...

Henry and David, who had been walking around in this "Western Art Hall", finally their legs were almost weak. Although they had visited the Metropolitan Museum, the Louvre, and the British Museum, they had never seen so many top-notch products in a museum!

It is no exaggeration to say that the top treasures displayed in this not-so-large "Western Art Hall" are among the top treasures collected by the four major museums in the world.

It seems that there are no babies with a slightly lower grade in this exhibition hall. They are all top-quality top-notch treasures...
