Moreover, the crystal skull has received mixed reviews internationally. Some say it is a modern forgery, while others say it is a symbol of the Mayan civilization. It is quite controversial. Even if it were launched now, I am afraid it would not have as much of a sensation as Klaus's treasure.
The golden mask is different. As an important part of the ancient Egyptian civilization, it can be launched as part of the Claus Treasure, or it can be displayed as a cultural relic of the world. I believe it will have a great impact on the world's archaeological community.
A big impact.
"You...what did you say? The golden mask of ancient Egypt?! Cough...cough..."
Huangfu Yun was originally drinking tea. He was so shocked by Zhuang Rui's words that he swallowed the hot tea in his mouth. He suddenly choked and coughed repeatedly, and his fair face turned red from holding back.
No wonder Huangfu Yun was surprised. The Egyptian golden mask is one of the most exquisite and precious ancient art treasures in the world. To this day, it is the main symbol of Egypt's ancient civilization.
The significance of the golden mask to Egypt is no less than the significance of the long-lost He's Bi to China. They are the most important inheritance of a country's civilization and represent the long and glorious history of a country.
And so far, only such a golden mask has been unearthed from the Egyptian pyramids. Its artistic value and market value are both immeasurable.
Compared to the golden mask, Captain Claus's golden anchor treasure is much inferior.
Of course, the golden mask is also part of the treasure, which can further illustrate how much wealth those great pirates who roamed the world had left for future generations to exploit centuries ago.
"Yes, it is definitely a golden mask from the ancient Egyptian civilization, and it is more exquisitely made than the golden mask found in the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun.
Brother Huangfu, you can prepare a little bit, how to announce this discovery to the world, I think this will definitely make our museum famous, right?"
Huangfu Yun believed in Zhuang Rui's professional appreciation level. After listening to Zhuang Rui's words, he calmed down. After thinking for a while, he raised his head and said, "Mr. Zhuang, the most important thing now is...
It is to strengthen the safety work of the museum. I hope you can allocate another fund for the safety improvement of the museum..."
"Brother Huangfu, our current safety facilities are already top-notch in the country, don't we need to modify them anymore?"
Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He knew that nearly ten million had been invested in security facilities when the museum was built. Why did it need to be strengthened? Even if the gold mask was priceless, there wouldn't be such a fuss, right?
After Huangfu Yun heard Zhuang Rui's words, he smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Zhuang, you are right. The safety facilities of our museum are indeed first-class in the country. Compared with the current exhibits, the safety facilities are sufficient."
, but with the golden mask, it won’t work. It must be strengthened to be a world-class one!
Moreover, the staffing needs to be more reasonable. Security personnel must also be deployed on the roof of the museum, and the patrol team outside must be doubled, so as to ensure nothing goes wrong..."
After listening to Huangfu Yun's explanation, Zhuang Rui realized that the value of the golden mask was far beyond his imagination. In order to preserve this mask, the Cairo Museum of Egypt spent nearly tens of millions of dollars on safety investment. Even so, there are two
This time he was almost captured by an international thief.
In the international criminal world, there are some billionaires who like to collect the most precious cultural relics in major museums. As a result, some elegant thieves who specialize in stealing cultural relics have spawned in the world, commonly known as international cultural relic thieves.
Precious cultural relics such as gold masks and precious oil paintings, which are well-known in the international art market, have always been the targets of international cultural relic thieves. Zhuang Rui's museum has several Picasso sketches, which is very attractive in itself.
If you add this golden mask and Klaus's treasure, I believe Zhuang Rui's Dingguang Museum will soon attract the attention of many international thieves.
"How much more will it cost?"
Zhuang Rui asked. He has a lot of treasures now, but he doesn't have much money left. The 2 billion invested in uranium mines has almost drained all of Zhuang Rui's funds. Now he only has more than 3 million left on hand.
It will also be used for the daily expenses of the courtyard and the manor.
"I have to ask Yang Jian about this, he is the security director..." Huangfu Yun replied.
"Okay, let's call Yang Jian..." Zhuang Rui nodded and picked up the phone.
…
"Mr. Zhuang, are you back?"
A few minutes later, Yang Jian rushed to the office and was a little surprised to see the tanned Zhuang Rui, but not as exaggerated as Huangfu Yun. After all, his relationship with Zhuang Rui was not as close as Huangfu Yun.
"Sit down, I have something to discuss with you..."
After Zhuang Rui asked Yang Jian to sit down, he explained the ins and outs of the matter, and finally asked Yang Jian, how much money would be needed to strengthen the security of the museum and make it a world-class museum?
Although Zhuang Rui has no money, as long as the news spreads, I believe that countless people will be interested in the gold coins in Klaus's treasure. How can hundreds of thousands of gold coins be turned around for hundreds of millions?
Funds?
What's more, there are hundreds of millions worth of gold bricks hidden in Zhuang Rui's basement. These are national reserves and can be exchanged for cash at the bank.
"Yang Jian, do you think how the museum's security work will be strengthened? How much additional funds will be needed?"
In order to introduce the treasure of the great pirate Klaus and this golden mask, Zhuang Rui decided to renovate the museum regardless of the cost.
In the early stages of building the museum, Zhuang Rui's goal was to build this museum into a world-class museum like the British Museum.
Picasso's sketches were the first step towards Zhuang Rui's ambitious goal, and now the Klaus treasure brings the Dingguang Museum one step closer to its goal of becoming a world-renowned museum.
Yang Jian had heard Zhuang Rui's words clearly, pondered for a while, and said: "Nowadays, several idle exhibition halls need to install infrared alarm equipment. In addition, central air conditioners and exhaust ventilation ducts also need to install special anti-theft systems.
…
In addition, the entire museum’s power system must be comprehensively modified to prevent criminals from having an opportunity during a power outage..."
Although the museum now has a backup generator, the backup generator will only start up after a period of time after the power is cut off. Although the time is short, it is enough for many smart international thieves to take advantage of the loopholes.
In the end, Yang Jian estimated a rough quotation, which actually cost nearly 30 million RMB. This was only for the hardware facilities and did not include the salary expenses of recruiting security personnel, etc.
Moreover, the renovation of the museum will take up to half a month. In other words, during this half month, the museum will not be able to operate normally, which will cost millions of RMB. However, for Zhuang Rui, this small amount of money is not worth it.
Nothing.
"Director Huangfu, what is the museum's turnover in the past few months?" Zhuang Rui is poor now. If he had known better, he would not have invested in African uranium mines. It is estimated that it will take at least one or two years for that thing to be profitable.
"Excluding employee wages and daily maintenance costs, there is still 39 million RMB left in the book. Mr. Zhuang, you are not here during the Chinese New Year this year, but we haven't paid a penny in holiday expenses..."
Huangfu Yun said half-jokingly that his rights were limited to signing the salary sheet, but benefits and other expenditures had to be approved by the boss.
Zhuang Rui thought for a moment and said: "Let's do this. We will use three million as last year's year-end bonus, and another thirty million as the renovation fund for the museum. Yang Jian, you will be solely responsible for the project issues. It must be built."
Water cannot be poured in, and not even a fly can be put in..."
"Yes, Mr. Zhuang, please don't worry..." Yang Jian stood up from the sofa.
"Sit down, sit down..."
Zhuang Rui waved his hand and motioned Yang Jian to sit down, then looked at Huangfu Yun and said: Director Huangfu, please inform the travel agencies in Beijing that we have business relations with. From now on, the museum will be expanded and renovated and will be closed for half a month...
In addition, a sum of funds will be used to promote the release of the golden mask and the Klaus treasure. I want everyone in the archaeological and antique circles in the world to know the news..."
When the Dingguang Museum opened, Zhuang Rui held a national industry conference and set up a professional website, which included almost all the top experts in the country. The momentum of the Dingguang Museum can now be said to be comparable to some
Well-known state-owned museum.
But this time, Zhuang Rui is even more ambitious. He plans to hold a world-wide academic conference and invite well-known experts from all over the world to participate in research on the origin of the golden mask. In this way, Dingguang Museum will definitely become famous around the world!
"Mr. Zhuang, don't worry. I will send letters to professional associations in various countries immediately. I will definitely make this press conference a sensation all over the world!"
After hearing Zhuang Rui's ambition, Huangfu Yun also became excited. Due to China's cowardice in modern times, it has been a self-proclaimed country and rarely communicates with foreign countries. Some precious cultural relics are even more inaccessible.
Therefore, the collections in domestic museums now basically carry China’s five thousand years of history and civilization, and are less in line with international standards. Even the Forbidden City Museum is far from being called an international comprehensive museum.
If what Zhuang Rui said is true and he can really produce the golden anchor and the Egyptian golden mask, then the Dingguang Museum will definitely set off an academic craze in the international scientific research and medical circles, and the Dingguang Museum will naturally become a comprehensive
The internationally renowned museum of sex.
By then, the Dingguang Museum will no longer need to ask major travel agencies. Those travel agencies will definitely consciously regard the Dingguang Museum as an important exhibition site.
Fame has always been equal to income. Otherwise, why would those celebrities have to do this and that every now and then? Aren't they just afraid of being forgotten by the public?
