After greeting Jason and the others, under the protection of many security personnel, Ye Tian and the others pushed their luggage towards a VIP lounge not far away.
Many media reporters who were waiting at the exit of the VIP channel, eager to see what was going on, immediately followed with their cameras and camcorders, walking fast and extremely excited!
What happened at the exit of the VIP channel quickly caused a sensation in the hall.
Everyone nearby turned to look here. When they saw Ye Tian and Betty, people immediately understood why the VIP exit was so lively and why the media reporters were so excited.
Without exception, people looked at Ye Tian with eyes full of envy, even jealousy, and wished they could replace him!
On the other side, under the protection of Matisse and the others, and under the supervision of David and his team of lawyers, the top antique artworks shipped from France have also begun to clear customs!
Due to the large number of top-notch antiques and the high value of each piece, customs clearance must take a long time, at least three or four hours!
With this period of time, Ye Tian just held a press conference to publicly explain the situation of those top antique artworks to the news media. This is also a kind of self-protection!
Of course, the reason why he did this was also to take advantage of the opportunity to speculate, so as to prepare for the next series of major antique art transactions!
The location Jason chose to hold the press conference was a VIP lounge in the departure hall. It was large enough and the security situation was quite good!
While talking, Ye Tian and the others had already arrived at the door of the VIP lounge and walked straight in.
At this time, the VIP lounge was already crowded and lively. Standing at the door and looking around, the lounge was filled with reporters from major news media, talking enthusiastically!
The moment the door to the lounge opened, everyone turned to look this way.
When they saw Ye Tian coming in, these guys immediately stood up from their seats, their eyes shining as if they had seen a huge treasure!
“Good afternoon, Steven. Welcome back to New York. Can you answer a few questions?”
A female reporter near the door spoke up first, looking impatient.
Ye Tian turned to look at this person, then said with a smile:
“Good afternoon, lady, I’m glad to see you here. Don’t worry, we will answer your and other reporters’ questions after we sit down. We have plenty of time!”
Hearing this, the beautiful reporter could only nod slightly and did not continue to ask questions.
The same goes for other media reporters in the lounge. They could only resist the urge to ask questions and stare at Ye Tian and his group!
Ye Tian and the others continued to move forward, passing through many media reporters, and soon came to the sofas at the back of the VIP lounge and sat down each!
After sitting down, Ye Tianxian whispered a few words to Jason to understand the situation.
At the same time, a company employee quickly turned on the camera that had been arranged and began to broadcast the press conference live on the Internet to prevent some media from randomly editing and taking quotes out of context, thereby misleading the public!
Seeing this scene, all the media reporters in the lounge couldn’t help but frowned, and they were all depressed. What’s more, some of them had already cursed secretly!
It’s this move again. Steven, a cunning bastard, guards us just like he guards against thieves. Is he so cautious?
Ye Tian doesn’t care at all what these media reporters think or whether they are in a happy mood. He only cares about whether he can successfully achieve his goal!
After roughly understanding the situation in New York, Ye Tian and Jason ended the conversation and looked at the many media reporters present.
“Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Long time no see. Nice to see you all here. The weather in New York is very nice today. I hope everyone is in the same mood.
I know very well why you are here. I won’t say too many polite words here. Do you have any questions? You can ask them now. I will try my best to answer them! “
Ye Tian said loudly with a smile on his face, announcing the start of the press conference simply and neatly.
As soon as he finished speaking, seven or eight media reporters stood up from their seats as if they were electrocuted, ready to ask questions.
However, Ye Tian raised his hands and pressed down gently.
“Let’s sit down and ask questions. It’s more relaxed this way. There’s no need to be so formal.”
Hearing this, the media reporters had no choice but to nod and sit down one after another.
As they sat down, a reporter in the front row asked a question first.
“Steven, I am a reporter from Fox TV. The major news media in Europe are now in mourning. They all say that you looted France, looted the United Kingdom, and looted the entire Europe!
As far as I know, many European countries have issued public statements claiming the top antiques and artworks in Napoleon’s treasure. How do you respond to these countries’ claims? “
“Hahaha”
There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and many people laughed, including a sense of gloating.
The faces of those media reporters from Europe were not so pretty.
Some people on the Internet have noticed this press conference that has just begun. In front of some computers, there was also laughter, and every voice was full of envy!
Ye Tian looked at the reporter who asked the question, then said with a smile:
“It is undeniable that I did gain a lot from the Saint-Ouin Flea Market in Paris, the Notting Hill Antique Market in London, and other places, but to say that I looted the entire Europe is a bit exaggerated!
As for Napoleon’s treasure hidden deep underground at No. 15 Avenue Chanunes, let alone looting. I am just a discoverer. To talk about looting, I can only say that Napoleon looted various European countries.
As for the ownership of the top antiques and artworks in Napoleon’s treasures, I have told several important figures in France on a private occasion before, and I made it very clear.
Since this journalist friend once again mentioned that many European countries have publicly issued statements claiming top antique artworks from Napoleon’s treasures, I will take this opportunity to reiterate it!
As early as more than 200 years ago, after Napoleon’s defeat, many European countries, as the victorious countries, had many opportunities to recover all the antiques and art plundered by Napoleon and his army.
However, they gave up this opportunity. Under the lobbying of the French, those European countries reached an agreement with the French government at the time and gave up the ownership of most of the plundered antique artworks
According to historical records, they only recovered about 5,000 pieces of antique art and recognized the French government’s ownership of the rest of the antique art. They never mentioned it again for more than two hundred years.
To this day, I have discovered the Napoleon Treasures, and those European countries have the nerve to jump out and claim those top antiques and artworks. Here I can only advise them, stop daydreaming!
More than two hundred years ago, the moment they reached an agreement with the then French government, they forever lost the right to claim those top antiques and artworks. Today, they want to go back on their word. How can such a good thing happen?
Let’s talk about the French government. In the early 19th century, in order to solve the financial crisis, the French government auctioned No. 15, Avenue de Champignes, and they lost the ownership of Napoleon’s treasure…”
Hearing what Ye Tian said, most of the media reporters at the scene nodded in agreement.
Although the reporters from various European countries had different opinions, for a while, they could not find any reason to refute, and they could only sit in their respective seats depressed.
At this time, some people in various European countries who saw this press conference on the Internet were already cursing at the top of their lungs!
These guys not only cursed Ye Tian, but also cursed the people in power in their respective countries more than 200 years ago. Everyone was very angry, but very helpless!
Who let the people who once held power in their country be a bunch of idiots? Is it possible that they could still dig up graves and flog their corpses? Even then, it’s of no use!
As soon as Ye Tian finished speaking, a reporter from the media immediately asked:
“Steven, I’m a reporter from the Los Angeles Times. Thompson, can you tell me how you deal with the top antiques and artworks in Napoleon’s treasure?
For example, the earliest discovered “Napoleon Enters Vienna”, the Crown of the Holy Roman Empire, Raphael’s “Icon of the Madonna”, Michelangelo’s “Lamentation of the Christ” and so on.
According to reliable information, you sold the original version of the “Code Napoleon” to Bernard, the richest man in France, for an astonishing price of 800 million euros. Is this news true? “
Everyone at the scene looked at Ye Tian, as did all the viewers on the live broadcast. This is one of the issues that everyone is most concerned about.
