In the banquet hall, two lawyers, Tian Huafeng and Chen Fei, came towards the door to greet them.
There were two other people walking with them, both men in their thirties and with strong appearance.
Both Ye Tian knew each other and had met each other once.
One is the security team leader assigned to the site by the security company he hired. He is a veteran and a special forces soldier. He has rich security experience and is trustworthy.
The other one is a special police officer from the city bureau and the deputy captain of the SWAT team. He is also a security expert.
After confirming that the preview and auction would be held at the Beijing Hotel, Ye Tian reported to the Beijing City Bureau and requested security support from the City Bureau.
It would be great if some police could be sent to the exhibition hall to maintain order on site and protect those priceless top-notch antiques.
Relevant leaders of the Municipal Bureau readily agreed to his request.
After some discussion and communication, the Municipal Bureau quickly dispatched a team of more than 20 police officers to protect the preview and auction!
The reason for this result is, of course, the importance and value of those top antique artworks.
The main leaders of the Municipal Bureau know very well that the antiques and artworks on display and auctioned this time are treasures that have been lost overseas for tens or hundreds of years, and each piece is valuable.
There are many national treasures among them, which must not be lost!
In addition, those participating in the auction are all the country's top antique art appraisal experts and collectors, as well as heavyweight cultural and museum institutions like the Forbidden City. How can we not pay attention to it? How dare we not pay attention to it?
Even if Ye Tian didn't ask for it, the city bureau would take the initiative to send a large number of police officers here to maintain order at the scene and closely monitor the entire process from the preview to the end of the auction.
Of course, for the support of these police forces, Ye Tian also paid a sponsorship fee. The amount is not too large and it is definitely worth every penny!
After the police arrived at the scene, they immediately cooperated with the twenty security company personnel hired by Ye Tian to tightly control the entire banquet hall.
At this time, the banquet hall, both inside and outside, can be said to be a post at every step and a sentry at every five steps! Every corner is under the strictest surveillance, there are no blind spots or loopholes!
In terms of the configuration of on-site security personnel, at Ye Tian's request, police personnel and security company personnel used cross-stations, which was not without the intention of monitoring each other.
In addition to police and security personnel, a large number of surveillance equipment and other high-tech security equipment were also deployed on site to maximize the security level of this banquet hall.
In addition, the police have sent people to the Beijing Hotel’s surveillance room to closely monitor the situation near the exhibition hall through high-definition surveillance cameras distributed on the banquet hall floor and inside and outside the hotel.
The current level of security at the Beijing Hotel is no less stringent than the security measures taken when foreign leaders stayed at this hotel.
In addition to the police and security company personnel, there were many people busy at the banquet hall.
Among them are staff from the Beijing Hotel and staff from the Sotheby's auction house.
Needless to say, the staff of Beijing Hotel, this is their home court, and it is normal to appear here.
The staff from Sotheby's auction house came over to help set up the exhibition at Ye Tian's request.
As the super financier of the auction house, it was naturally impossible for Sotheby's Auction House to refuse Ye Tian's request.
There is not much business during the Spring Festival. Who would refuse such a good thing to make extra money? What's more, Ye Tian is known for his generosity!
After taking over this business, Sotheby's auction house not only sent staff to set up the exhibition, but also brought a large amount of exhibition equipment, which can be said to be full of sincerity.
Of course, they have also made requests, trying to take over the auction business of these top antique artworks and make a lot of money!
But unfortunately, they were treated the same as other auction houses, and they were rejected by Ye Tian.
And after the exhibition is completed, all Sotheby's auction house staff must leave the exhibition hall, let alone enter the auction site, without any special treatment!
During the preview and tomorrow's auction, the only people who can provide services in this banquet hall are Beijing Hotel service personnel who have undergone surprise training, and some Palace Museum cultural and museum personnel may be added later.
All staff involved in on-site services will be required to abide by confidentiality regulations and are not allowed to take photos on site, let alone disclose the information of bidding buyers.
For Beijing hotel service staff, it has become a habit to abide by confidentiality regulations and not take photos or take selfies everywhere, and there is no need for special reminders.
I don’t know how many foreign dignitaries this hotel receives a year, how many major meetings and social dinners are held. How can service staff who do not abide by confidentiality regulations stay and work here?
In the blink of an eye, Tian Huafeng and the others were approaching and greeted Ye Tian one after another.
"Happy New Year! Mr. Ye,..."
“I wish you all a happy New Year! I’m so sorry that I bothered everyone during the Chinese New Year and asked everyone to come here to work. I’m really sorry!”
Ye Tian cupped his fists and raised his hands to these people, wished them a happy new year, and said a few more polite words.
"You're welcome, Mr. Ye, this is our job, no need to disturb"
The two lawyers and the security team leader said in unison, and the deputy captain of the municipal bureau's special police also nodded politely.
After a few polite words, Ye Tian got down to the topic and asked:
"Lawyer Tian, Lawyer Chen, how are you preparing? Tell me!"
"Okay, Mr. Ye"
Lawyer Tian nodded and immediately began to introduce the situation.
“We have prepared the agreement, which fully reflects your wishes. Buyers participating in the on-site bidding must be Chinese and must abide by the agreement. This is a prerequisite for participating in the bidding.
If they violate the agreement and resell the auctioned antique artwork abroad, or take it out of the country, you can sue them according to the agreement and pursue the relevant antique artwork.
We have communicated with the Municipal Bureau, the State Administration of Cultural Heritage, and the Customs. Once these top antiques are sold at auction, they will immediately be labeled with restrictions on leaving the country.
In other words, no matter who takes pictures of these antique artworks, they cannot take them out of the country. Even if they are taken out secretly, they cannot enter the antique artwork market for normal circulation.
In addition to this agreement, based on the relevant information you provided, we have already prepared the auction contract for each piece of antique art and can be put into use at any time..."
While introducing the situation, Tian Huafeng also flashed a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Through these agreements and contracts, he could clearly feel Ye Tian's intentions.
Since these top-notch antiques and artworks that have been lost overseas for decades or hundreds of years have been brought back to China, they must all be kept in the country and must not be allowed to flow out again, not even one piece!
The same goes for the other people, with admiration flashing in their eyes, and their impression of Ye Tian has also improved greatly.
After Lawyer Tian’s introduction, Ye Tian turned to look at the security team leader and the deputy captain of the city bureau’s special police.
Next, the two men began to introduce the security situation.
Everything is as Ye Tian saw. The security inside and outside the exhibition hall is very tight. There are no loopholes and no chance for anyone with ulterior motives.
If someone desperately wants to come here to enjoy the autumn breeze and those national treasure-level antiques and artworks, they will only end up in a **** mess. They are seeking death!
After they finished their introduction, Ye Tian immediately nodded appreciatively and said:
"You did a great job. With your protection, I believe that those top-quality antiques and artworks will be safe and sound, and this auction will be a complete success.
One thing I want to remind you is that there are many ancient paintings and calligraphy works in this batch of antique artworks, many of which can be called national treasures. They must not be exposed to water!
Just in case, you'd better turn off the fire sprinkler system in this banquet hall and prepare more fire extinguishers. If not, someone will try to fix the fire sprinkler system! "
“We have already considered this. When the antique artworks are shipped to the Beijing Hotel and the exhibition begins, we will turn off the fire sprinkler system on this floor.
Especially in the banquet hall, there are people monitoring it at all times, so there will never be any problems. No matter who you are, don't try to take any advantage here. They are looking for death! "
The city bureau special police officer said confidently and with a decisive tone.
"Of course that's the best. Let's all go about our business. Once the site decoration is completed, we will set off to the Financial Street to pick up those top antiques and artworks! Transport them here"
"Okay, Mr. Ye"
Several people responded in unison, everyone was very confident.
Then, the security team leader and the SWAT captain turned around and left.
Ye Tianze led two lawyers and walked towards the front of the banquet hall.
While marching, Ye Tian chatted quietly with the two lawyers while turning his head and looking around.
At this moment, he has secretly turned on the perspective, observing every corner of the banquet hall and every booth and showcase to eliminate any possible hidden dangers.
Although the security here is airtight, what he trusts most is still his own eyes. Only by seeing through it thoroughly can he truly feel at ease.
