Chapter 203: One hundred thousand dollars, the legal fees are a bit expensive
Hu Liting drank tea and said with a smile: "One hundred thousand."

"Dragon coin?"

"Of course it's a knife."

Lin Yu complained in his heart, Damn it, being a lawyer is really easy to make money. This time it costs 60 US dollars, which is [-] dragon coins.

Hu Liting continued: "Luo Yang is my classmate. If it weren't for the sake of being a classmate, it would cost at least 30 US dollars. You may not understand Europe. The legal fees are based on the size of the lawsuit. If it is 3.8 million US dollars, it will cost at least 5.00%. "

Lin Yu nodded: "Deal."

"Tell me what happened."

Lin Yu immediately told what happened, and Hu Liting listened carefully and took notes carefully.

Hu Liting asked: "Have you ever said that the paintings you created are Picasso's paintings?"

"No."

Hu Liting immediately said seriously: "Are you sure? According to your description, this is very important."

"Really not. I still have records. When I spoke to the general manager of Christie's Longguo Branch, they were all recorded. You can listen to it." After Lin Yu finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and played the recording.

Hu Liting listened to the recording...
"Hello, I am Wyatt, general manager of Christie's BJ branch."

"Hello."

"We have authenticated the painting you just sent over. It is an authentic work. If you have no requirements, we can sign a contract."

"I have a request."

"any request?"

"I still have many authentic paintings, will you accept them all?"

"How many?"

"One hundred pictures."

"Do you really have a hundred paintings?"

"Yes."

"Where did you come from?"

"I painted them all, eight of them were not painted by me."

Hu Liting looked surprised. She didn't expect that Lin Yu had left evidence in advance. You know what is most important in court, that is, evidence. Now from the recording, it can be clearly felt that these were drawn by Lin Yu.

Hu Liting asked: "Did you also paint the $3.8 million "Dark Dawn"?"

"Yes, but they don't admit that I painted it. I also have an appraisal certificate issued by Christie's Auction House." Lin Yu took something out of his schoolbag and handed it to Hu Liting.

Hu Liting looked at the appraisal certificate above. It was indeed issued by Christie Auction House Company.

Hu Liting was thoughtful.

In other words, the man in front of me imitated a Picasso painting, and the auction company auctioned it off as an authentic Picasso painting, thus selling for 3.8 million US dollars?
This·····

How did this guy do it?
How did you get Christie to admit it?

How did you hide it from the appraisers?

Hu Liting asked: "The most important question is, did you leave Picasso's name on your painting? This is very important. If so, it means you created a fake Picasso painting."

“It’s okay to create fake Picasso paintings, but if they are leaked and auctioned, that’s not okay.”

Lin Yu shook his head: "No."

What a joke.

You even left your name, isn’t that a solid piece of evidence?
Lin Yu naturally knew this and had been prepared for it long ago. Picasso's name was never left on the fake Picasso paintings he created.

Hu Liting said: "Where are the hundred paintings? Is there Picasso's name?"

"Have."

Hu Liting was shocked: "Really?"

"Yes, I have!"

Hu Liting was extremely angry: "Did you just say that?"

"You ask me if I have any works that I have created. Of course I don't. The paintings with names are all the paintings I bought from Picasso. This is the source of motivation for me to learn to create. Everything with names is not created by me. It is all written by Picasso himself. .”

Hu Liting breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.It’s fine if you don’t.

Once you have it and sell it, it is a fake painting and a fraud. The former master of fake painting, Bertrage, left his name on the work. Finally, he was found and Bertrage was imprisoned.

Whether or not there is a name is key.

Without a name, it is not a fake painting, but art.

Who says you can't imitate Picasso's paintings?

Imitation is not illegal.

Hu Liting said: "I want to tell you about European law. First, evidence will be handed over. Before going to court, there will be an opportunity to defend yourself. There are two possibilities for this opportunity to defend yourself."

"The first is that you take the initiative to plead guilty. When the trial is held, the sentence will be reduced based on your attitude."

"The second option is that you plead not guilty, and the two parties formally confront each other and start a plea."

"According to what you said, when the evidence is handed over, you can win the case, and the other party is likely to withdraw the case. The evidence you have shown fully proves that you are not creating fake paintings."

"You are a genius, you are imitating Picasso's style."

"It's not a crime, art is not a crime."

"Of course this is the evidence you submitted. It is also possible that the other party has new evidence."

Lin Yu asked; "Is this just like Long State? Before the trial, the judge will summon both parties to reconcile out of court. If reconciliation cannot be achieved, the trial will begin. After reconciliation, there is no need to go to court?"

Hu Liting responded: "Yes, but it is different in Europe. Prosecutors will ask you to plead guilty, which will reduce the sentence to a large extent."

Lin Yu thought about it.

Lin Yu believed that he was not guilty.

But
This is in a foreign country!

It is not up to him to decide whether he is guilty or not. What if the judge gets cramps?
Lin Yu looked calm on the surface, but he was still a little panicked in his heart.

Hu Liting said: "Don't speak to anyone you meet next, don't talk about the painting. After three days, evidence will be exchanged and everything will be handled by me."

"Based on the current evidence, they cannot prove that you forged an authentic Picasso."

After seeing Lin Yu's evidence, Hu Liting was very confident.

The case doesn't even have to go to court.

The judge will decide whether to hold a trial based on the evidence from both parties.

Lin Yu nodded.

Hu Liting left and went to the Pace International Gallery. Looking at the scrolls on it, she had to sigh, this guy is really a genius, and he imitated Picasso so vividly.

three days later...
Lin Yu was taken out of the hotel by the police and entered the court.

Followed by a large number of reporters.

"Mr. Lin Yu, how do you feel about the lawsuit against Christie Auction House?"

"Mr. Lin Yu, was the masterpiece "Dark Dawn" painted by you?"

"Mr. Lin Yu, are you somewhat sure of winning the case?"

"Mr. Lin Yu..."

The police officer took Lin Yu into the car, and Hu Liting followed behind.

Lin Yu said: "So many reporters?"

"Of course, one hundred Picasso paintings shocked the whole of Europe, and naturally many journalists came to interview them."

"There are also journalists in the court?"

"Yes, just leave it to me."

The police car sped away and stopped outside the court. Lin Yu and Hu Liting got out of the car and walked to the court...

The Christie auction house also sent lawyers.

Good guy

More than one lawyer?
This is the rhythm that is going to kill me...
