A 2012 Maya prophecy, was fried by these unruly Hollywood writers like egg fried rice, the world of the meteorite version is not coming, the world of the earthquake version is not coming, the world of the virus is not coming, and the world of the tsunami is not coming. ....., it really looks like the world is coming.

Secondly, the pursuit of the ownership of the shipwreck by the spokesperson of the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Government also attracted the attention of many people around the world.

In 1492, Columbus discovered the New World of America.

西班牙 In the centuries that followed, Spain savagely plundered a large amount of gold, silver, gems, cane sugar, coffee, etc. in South America.

Spain uses merchant ships or builds gold fleets to transport these huge wealth back to Spain.

Later Anglo-French and other countries eagerly plundered the wealth of the New World and inevitably competed with Spain, which has achieved Caribbean dominance. Therefore, various forces are required to fight the Spaniards. When their naval strength is insufficient or it is inconvenient to come directly, The government and the government have arrogantly adopted the method of issuing a private plunder permit to encourage civilian ships to attack the western spotted merchant ships.

Due to ‘legal’ pirate attacks and storms at sea, many Spanish merchant ships and gold-carrying ships sank under the sea.

航线 The route from the South American colony to the Spanish mainland sank a large number of Spanish ships carrying gold, silver, gems, cane sugar, coffee and other materials plundered from the South American colony.

Except for the route from the South American colony to the Spanish mainland.

There is also a large number of Spanish ships sunk on the route from the Southeast Asian colony to the Spanish mainland, most of which are loaded with gold, silver, gems, pearls and cargo plundered from the colony.

In addition, in 1980, an American marine expedition company named "Fortune Saver" announced the discovery of a sunken ship, suspected to be the 17th-century Spanish Navy's "Mother Atocha," carrying a value of up to $ 400 million. About 300,000 items. Due to the lack of experience of the Spanish government at the time in dealing with such incidents, the sunken ship wealth was eventually auctioned off by salvage companies, and the Spanish government recovered only some of the items through the auction.

There are reasons, experiences, and lessons in these areas. Therefore, in recent years, the Spanish government has actively strengthened the protection of underwater treasures.

In addition to formulating the "Spanish National Underwater Archaeological Heritage Protection Plan", an expert group was set up to work out the Spanish treasure map of the sea floor to determine the specific location and contents of the sunken ship.

He also actively pursues Spanish vessels salvaged by treasure hunters or treasure hunting companies.

In 2007, the American Odyssey Marine Exploration Company salvaged the Spanish frigate "Mercedes", carrying 17 tons of treasure, including 590,000 gold coins, silver coins and other gold ornaments, tableware and cultural relics, worth up to 500 million US dollars. The biggest shipwreck salvage since salvage.

Since then, the Spanish government, government and Odyssey Marine Exploration Corps have filed a five-year lawsuit over the ownership of the treasures. In the end, the court in Tampa, Florida ruled that the treasures should be returned to Spain.

However, Spain's successful recovery of the treasures on the frigate "Mercedes" is very rare internationally.

The main reason for successfully recovering the cultural relics this time was to determine that the "Mercedes" shipwreck was a warship, the warship was a state property, and the act of transporting treasure was a state action. Spain legally owned the "Mercedes" shipwreck Right of ownership.

And more sunken ships and treasures on board were sold or auctioned by treasure hunters or treasure hunting companies.

The Chinese shipwreck ‘Black Stone’ was sold by Singapore ’s “Sentosa” agency for 30 million U.S. dollars.

More than one million pieces of Chinese porcelain from the Kangxi era on the 'Taixing', more than 600,000 pieces of 'Hailao Porcelain' which were slightly inferior were destroyed, and the remaining 356,000 pieces were shipped to Germany for auction, with a total of 30 million shots US dollars.

In 1985, Mel Fisher and his family finally found the Spanish Lady Treasure Atoka. The shipwreck, known as the largest treasure on the seabed, has 40 tons of treasure, of which nearly 8 tons of gold and 500 kilograms of precious stones. All the treasures are worth about $ 400 million, and Mel Fisher became a rich man.

In 1980, a US marine expedition named "Fortune Saver" salvaged the 17th-century Spanish Navy's "Mother of Atocha". The ship carried about 300,000 items worth up to $ 400 million. The wealth of the sunken ship was eventually lost. Salvage company auction.

US 'Republic', ...

锐 Chen Rui has very sufficient and conclusive evidence that the 'Lucky Star' is a merchant ship and does not belong to the Spanish state. The act of transporting treasure is not a state action.

The salvage location is on the high seas, far from the territorial waters and legal jurisdiction of any country. UU reading books www.uukanshu.com

Through these two points of the International Salvage Law and relevant evidence, Chen Rui is very sure that he owns the ownership of the wreck ‘Lucky Star’.

锐 A series of evidence presented by Chen Rui to reporters that can strongly prove his ownership of 'Lucky Star' has also temporarily halted the Spanish government and government, but has not given up all his possession of the 'Sunny Star' shipwreck.

I won't say for a moment, hundreds of gold coins and 300,000 silver coins are very well preserved, almost intact, the source, age and characteristics of the coins are different, and have a very high value of cultural relics.

Moreover, ‘Lucky Star’ has been kept in good condition because it has been buried in the mud of the sea floor for a long time to block the air and seawater from soaking and corrosion.

The Lucky Star is a Spanish sailing ship. As a symbol of Spanish maritime hegemony, it is of great significance to the Spanish people.

Although Spain is no longer what it used to be, and it has become an ordinary country in Europe, many Spanish are still proud of Spain ’s maritime supremacy in the 16th to 17th centuries.

Therefore, in an interview with reporters, Rui Chen hoped that the overall sale of the 'Lucky Star' attracted the attention of many countries, institutions and individuals on the shipwreck.

First contacted Chen Rui's Spanish National Museum of Prado, curator Paul Franco Reno, accompanied by the staff of the National Museum of Prado and the staff of the Spanish Embassy in the United States.

In addition to the Prado National Museum in Spain, there are also the Metropolitan Museum of New York in the United States, the National Museum of the United Kingdom, and several institutions and individuals have expressed interest in the ship's luck.
