Strolling on the road with Earl Hill.
”Rui.” Earl Hill hesitated for a while.
”Hill Earl, we are friends, if there is anything to tell me.” Chen Rui said with a smile.
Earl Hill said to Chen Rui, ”You know that I am a paleontologist. The coelacanth has lived on earth for more than 400 million years. It is called the living fossil, and this Coelacanth of yours has been the only in captives that still alive.
Characteristic of Coelacanth is that the body produces muscles, bones, and limbs from the fins and it's very important for studying the evolution of the land creatures from the water and exploring which fish the original amphibians evolved from.
Moreover, I really like these little elves like the children, naughty,cute, and willing to do their best to the owner
So, I hope that you can transfer one to me, any price can be, US dollars, 7 digits just fill it out, or I can take the 2 Bronze Head that you want.” Earl Hill looked at Chen Rui with anticipation.
USD, 7 digits can be filled in casually.
That is to say, Chen Rui can fill in the checkbook with 99,999,999 US dollars, equivalent to 680 Million Yuan, and Earl Hill will also agree.
The 2 Bronze Head of Yuanming Yuan, the head of the snake, and the head of the sheep, are the one Chen Rui has always wanted from the Earl Hill, but it's value was very high.
Take the other 12 Zodiac animal heads for a reference.
The rabbit head and the mouse head were auctioned in 2009 for 14 million euros. The buyer was the chairman and general manager of Xiamen Xinhe Art Auction Co., Ltd., and Cai Mingchao, the collector of the Chinese rescue fund for the loss of overseas cultural relics.
In 2000, Cattle Head was photographed by China Poly Group for HK$7.745 million.
In 2000, China Poly Group took the Tiger Head at Sotheby auction house for HK$15.447 million.
The Dragon Head was on the island of Taiwan and was worth four or five million Taiwan dollars in the 1980s.
Horse Head was photographed by Capital Museum in 2007 at Sotheby for 69.10 million Hong Kong.
In the 1980s, the Monkey Head was purchased by China Poly Group for HK$8.185 million.
At the beginning of 2003, China rescue fund for the loss of overseas cultural relics visited the whereabouts of the Pig Head in the United States. They tried hard to get the American collectors to agree to transfer the Pig Head, and finally, Stanley Ho donated more than 600 million yuan to buy the Pig Head.
Considering the Rat Head and the Rabbit Head in Paris, the high price of 14 million euros was made. It was completely speculated. The bronze statue of the animal head of the Zodiac as a building component left the building and its value was greatly reduced.
Therefore, 14 million euros is completely empty and does not reflect the true value of these two artifacts.
The Horse Head was able to shoot HK$69.1 million. On the one hand, it was speculated by the merchants. On the one hand, it was because of the particularity of the horse head. It was the most unique one of the animal heads of the zodiac, with a cloud-like shape on the head and Curly hair shows that this is a typical European 'Prince of the White Horse'.
Even more coincidentally, the Chinese zodiac signs also represent the twelve animal hour. The horses represent exactly noon, so when the horses sprinkle water, all the animals will spray water together.
Therefore, the value of the Snake Head and Sheep Head of the Earl of Hill is not as high as 14 million euros for Rabbit Head and Mouse Head, or as high as 69.10 Million HKD for the Horse Head.
But it is not low. Every Bronze Head will be worth more than 5 Million USD now.
