Chapter 262： Sexy Marilyn

There is a portrait on the wall on the left. It is not big in size. It is the head of a beautiful woman. Every American knows it. Marilyn Monroe, synonymous with sex!

The author of this portrait is also very familiar to Americans, and 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 madly pursued by countless art collectors.

But, like Andy Warhol's other works, he painted more than one "Marilyn Monroe", but many! No one even knows the exact number.

The most terrible thing is that these Marilyn Monroe looks basically the same! It's just that the arrangement is slightly different!

Some are heads of Marilyn Monroe, some are four, and there are more. It makes people dizzy to look at!

The one in front of me is a portrait of a head. There is exactly the same one at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, maybe it is the same work!

Strictly speaking, these can no longer be considered paintings. It seems more appropriate to say that they are printed materials!

Because this was completely copied by Andy Warhol using screen printing technology! That's why there are so many!

But this does not affect the value of the painting!

Each of these paintings is of high value, and it is commonplace to sell for tens of millions of dollars!

The reason is that they came from Andy Warhol, the master of Pop art, and the most famous artistic genius of the 20th century.

As long as the work comes out of his hands, even a roll of toilet paper can become a work of art, and Americans recognize it! No way to reason at all!

Because it was a screen print, it also caused Andy Warhol to flood the streets!

Everyone can create his paintings, as long as they master the screen printing technology and download a piece of his work, anyone can experience the feeling of a pop art master!

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

As for people's DIY works, they can only entertain themselves! Worthless!

Because of these massive copies, the identification of Andy Warhol has become a difficult task, and even an authoritative expert cannot guarantee 100% accuracy.

This is a difficult problem for other appraisal experts, but it is not the slightest difficulty for Ye Tian.

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

At this moment, in the eyes of Ye Tian, ​​the "Marilyn Monroe" on the wall is undoubtedly authentic! It is one of the most outstanding masterpieces of Pop Art! Enough to drive countless Andy Warhol fans crazy!

Ye Tian also has 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 layers of unusually charming halos on the paintings. There is no better evidence than this! There is no stronger evidence than this!

Only he can see all this, and no one else knows anything.

Whether in the eyes of the restaurant owner, in the eyes of the dining guests, or even not far from the Andy Warhol Museum staff and appraisal experts, this is an ordinary copy, worthless!

As the pride of Pittsburgh, no one here has one or two copies of Andy Warhol! It's no surprise that everyone has long been used to it!

Ye Tian can even think of the origin of this painting. It may be that when the restaurant owner was strolling around that day, he saw such a painting. The decoration was decent, so he bought a copy to decorate the restaurant!

But he wanted to get it. This is an authentic picture of Andy Warhol, and there are more than ten restaurants like him!

If you knew this, absolutely no one would dare to hang a painting worth tens of millions of dollars in the public space of a restaurant like this. What a heart!

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

After drawing 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 very thoroughly, including the street outside the wall, which was equally clearly presented in Ye Ye Tian's eyes.

Oil paints, canvases, etc., almost every detail is the same as that of the New York Museum of Modern Art, close to perfection!

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 precisely because of this that this painting was left as a folk and appeared here!

Later, Ye Tian retracted the perspective and made a decision.

"Restaurant owner, I'm sorry! Since you have no eyes, you guys are not welcome! So that this famous painting will not end up in your hands!"

Must win this masterpiece, let alone let go of such a huge fortune, it is a crime! To myself, but also to this work!

But now is not the time, when you leave after eating, you can take down this tens of millions of famous paintings!

"Honey! Why did you stop?"

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

"It's nothing! The **** Marilyn is smiling at me. It makes me tempted and flattered, so I stop! Admire this beauty!"

Ye Tian joked casually, with puns!

As he spoke, he had suppressed his excitement, reluctantly moved his gaze away from Marilyn Monroe's face, and looked at Betty beside him!

"Hahaha, Marilyn smiles at countless Americans every day, you are just one of them, don't be excited!"

Jason took the sentence with a smile, and the others were also smiling.

They had no other ideas except a little surprised, and Betty did the same.

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

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

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

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

Hearing this, Betty suddenly became a little shy, and his face started to flush, so direct! This is in the restaurant! At the same time, she also felt a burst of sweetness!

"Hahaha, Steven, it looks like I will call you Romeo in the future!"

Jason joked with a smile, and the others chuckled.

Afterwards, everyone went on to the dining table by the window.

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

"Two ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the'Meat and Potato' 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 recipe.

Soon, the waiter was introduced and the order began.

"I want a special beef..."

...

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

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

"Everyone sit down for a while, I have something else, 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" is a buddy, and it definitely didn't run!

"Steven, what else can happen here?"

Jason asked in surprise, everyone was a little confused, what else came out?

"It's not an important thing, just look at it, don't talk!"

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

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

"Man, 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 a kind attitude!

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

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

He 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 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 in excitement Let's start preparing!

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

Obviously, this guy has found the baby again, this is to prepare evidence! I always think so thoughtful! But what is it baby? Is it Marilyn? ‘

The arrangement was completed quickly, and I just waited for the restaurant owner to come, stretched his head and was slaughtered!

Everyone is more excited, waiting for the show to be performed.

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 the ‘Meat and Potato’ restaurant, it’s an honor to meet you all, I’m Mazzoni, the owner of this restaurant!"

"Good evening, Mr. Mazzoni, this is Steven, these are my friends, we are from New York!"

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