After the founding of the People's Republic of China, cultural relics are not allowed to become

Qu Qingshi got into the car, and the driver drove him all the way from the airport to the second ring road, and put him in front of an office building. His leader, Li Yan, the director of the National Academy of Cultural Relics, was waiting anxiously at the door.

Li Yan, the director of the National Institute of Cultural Relics, with a walnut in one hand and a string in the other, and a Guanyin jade pendant around his neck, looks like a greasy middle-aged man, and no one will give him a second glance on the street.When he saw Qu Qing at this time, he immediately pulled him into the office building: "Quick, quick, the meeting is about to start."

Qu Qingshi was confused: "Why?"

Li Yan registered at the door, signed his name with a few strokes, and took Qu Qingshi up to the second floor: "I asked you to fill out the form last time, and then someone came to the courtyard to check the files, do you remember?"

Qu Qingshi: "Remember."

Li Yan: "That's it. Originally, it wasn't our turn, but who knew that the one in front of you suddenly got pregnant and couldn't go there. It's not your turn. You'll know when you get in, don't be stupid Deng asked, I will explain to you later..."

Qu Qingshi looked confused: "Where are you going? Who is in the meeting? What do you want me to do?"

"Book, pen!" Li Yan instructed Qu Qingshi, and turned to help him open the door of the conference room. Qu Qingshi looked up and saw a few large characters on the PPT projection screen - Overseas cultural relics recovery team kicked off the meeting.

Li Yan was behind him: "There is a nameplate on the table, find your own seat."

Just as Qu Qingshi wanted to go in, Li Yan pulled him back, lowered his voice and said again: "Remember, the content of the meeting is absolutely confidential!"

The door snapped shut behind him.

The conference room was not big, and it seemed that there were more than ten people when it was full. Qu Qingshi walked into the conference room in a daze and found his own seat. Fortunately, the conference hadn't started yet, and everyone hadn't arrived yet.

When Qu Qingshi opened the notebook, he heard a familiar voice behind him: "Little Qu?"

When Qu Qingshi looked back, he was actually an acquaintance of Guobo, Yu Dong.

Yu Dong was about the same age as him, excitedly said: "You are also here for the meeting."

Qu Qingshi nodded, and beckoned Yu Dong to come closer, only to hear him ask softly, "What the hell is going on here?"

Yu Dong: "...Pfft, don't you, you don't even know this? Your Dean Li didn't tell you?"

Qu Qingshi: "Just after returning from Wuhan, I was dragged to a meeting."

Yu Dong then enthusiastically explained: "Last year, the higher-ups were going to restart the overseas cultural relics recovery team, and send people abroad to collect Chinese cultural relics that were strayed abroad in a low-key manner."

Qu Qingshi turned his head, with an incredulous expression: "Is it the one approved by Premier Zhou before?"

Yu Dong: "Yes! At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a lot of waste was waiting to be rebuilt, and the "Five Bulls Picture" appeared in Hong Kong. Premier Zhou ordered the acquisition of "Five Bulls Picture" to protect our country's precious property. The cultural relics acquisition team was established in the second year. Secretly purchased Chinese cultural relics strayed overseas, and allocated special funds to rescue them under extremely difficult financial conditions, Wang Xianzhi's "Mid-Autumn Post" and Wang Xun's "Boyuan Post" were purchased at that time."

It was still in 1950, years of wars caused countless cultural relics to flow overseas. After Premier Zhou learned that "Five Bulls" had appeared in Hong Kong, he issued three instructions and asked to send someone to take pictures. A large number of precious national treasures were recovered at a high price, so that they would not be exiled overseas.

Some people may question why Chinese people spent so much money to photograph cultural relics at that time when they couldn't eat enough to wear and warm. However, from the current point of view, Premier Zhou has a long-term vision and has made great contributions to the protection of cultural relics in our country.

Qu Qingshi: "Then why do you suddenly remember to restart? Are we... team members?"

Yu Dong swallowed his saliva: "I don't know about this, I just received the notice, but I guess, the main reason is that the situation of returning overseas cultural relics is getting more and more serious, and the global economic situation is not good..."

Before Yu Dong could finish speaking, the door opened and two people who looked like leaders came in, and the conference room quickly fell silent.

He has met one of the two leaders, Yu Dong's leader, Shi Yaohua, the dean of the National Museum, and the other one he doesn't know.

"Dear colleagues, let me introduce. This is the leader of our party group, Xu Guorong, Director Xu. Today we are holding a kick-off meeting of the overseas cultural relics recovery team here. All colleagues present here are invited to come and participate. The main purpose is to prepare to restart the overseas cultural relics. Cultural relics recovery team, please let Director Xu introduce the specific situation to us." Shi Yaohua said.

Director Xu turned on the small microphone: "Hello everyone, maybe many people are thinking that most of the ways we recover cultural relics now are based on legal means, or they are returned to the country through auction of cultural relics. Why should we restart this group? It is because recently Over the past few years, the situation of returning overseas cultural relics has become more and more severe.

First: In the past, our most common way was to bring our national treasures home through cultural relics auctions. Now that Chinese people are getting richer, many Chinese are active in auctions and bring Chinese cultural relics back to China. This has led to some Businessmen maliciously hype up the price of Chinese cultural relics, taking advantage of the patriotism of the Chinese people to raise the price maliciously.

We have been notified that a service of fake cultural relics targeting Chinese people has become popular in foreign countries—fake auctions of big brands, export fake goods from China, set the auction venues in places that look very high-end, and then Find a few foreigners to raise the price to stir up the atmosphere, and if you have good after-sales service, you will have an afterparty for you, the purpose is to attract Chinese people to buy.We Chinese people think that foreign countries are all high-quality products taken away by the Eight-Power Allied Forces, and there are no fakes. As a result, when we return to China, people will see that they are all fake!

Second: Contrary to the mentality of our Chinese people, it is a national humiliation and a century of humiliation for our cultural relics to flow abroad, but foreigners regard these as the glory of their ancestors!They don't think that looting cultural relics is a shameful act of robbery, but they are proud of it!

Foreigners love to hold parties. In order to show that they are cultured and stylish, they move the whole party to the museum. What kind of "Chinese elements" party did they have in 15, the reliefs of the Longmen Grottoes, the murals of the Yuan Dynasty "Picture of the Medicine Buddha and Buddha Meeting" directly exposed to the air without any protection!The flash is flashing!In the past few years, those well-known people also said that the cultural relics are placed abroad, and the foreign countries are well protected, and they are all farting! "

The more Director Xu talked, the more excited he became, and at the end he slapped the table while talking, and the lid of the cup jingled.He took a sip of tea to calm down and continued:

"Nowadays, several museums, such as the British Museum and the Metropolitan Museum, have gradually stopped displaying precious cultural relics in order to prevent us from pursuing cultural relics, so no one knows how many cultural relics are hidden in those museums. What's more exaggerated is that folk The number of cultural relics in the collection is at least ten times that in the museum!

But now that the global economy is going down, Greece is bankrupt, and the four European pigs have lost their former glory, we don't even think about cultural relics in museums, but we can still try folk cultural relics.There are many good things hidden in the families whose ancestors have been honored. The descendants of those people can't eat now, and they are afraid that they will lose face if they sell them at auction, so they are likely to go through private channels.

So this is the reason why we set up an overseas cultural relics recovery team. Although we Chinese are all over the world, there are not many people with vision and ability, and they are easy to be deceived. The few people who are working are the leaders of our cultural relics units, so I want to put You are invited to form this group, relying on the power of all of you to recover cultural relics for our country. "

Qu Qingshi listened in the audience, his calm heart gradually became hot.

Director Xu continued: "Remember, our goal is not a museum, not an auction, but the folks. To put it bluntly, it is to pick up leaks. You can go anywhere in the world and go wherever you want. As long as you receive cultural relics, it is your achievement."

The people in the audience couldn't sit still, and eagerly whispered to each other.

Director Xu tapped the microphone a few times to calm everyone down: "I believe everyone knows the reason why we ask for secrecy. If we announce to the world with great fanfare that we want to recover cultural relics, those who own cultural relics will immediately sit on the ground and raise prices, and the lion will open his mouth. , even if we Chinese can afford it, we shouldn't give money to the robbers who stole our cultural relics!

So I have a few requirements here, please listen to them: First: This is a confidential activity, we will assign identities to everyone, everyone’s superficial task is to study or work, but the actual task is to search for cultural relics.If someone leaks this group, it is a violation of discipline!

Second: In order to ensure the safety of everyone and the safety of cultural relics, we deliberately asked people from above. When the time comes, you will work with them in pairs, partner with each other, and cooperate closely.

Third: The place to go is up to the researchers themselves, but it’s best not to get together. If you have any questions when you go abroad, please contact us directly. We will do our best to help you in your work and life.

Now that these points are over, do you have any questions? "

Yu Dong was the first to raise his hand: "When will I leave and when will I come back? Can those who come back during the holidays?"

Director Xu said: "If we leave, it will be one month later, and the deadline is limited to three years. After three years, we will look at the results of the group to decide whether to continue in the future. The holidays are consistent with the rhythm of foreign countries. Those who pretend to be students have the same holidays as students. Pretending to be at work to enjoy local statutory holidays."

The person on the right asked: "How to calculate the expenses incurred in living abroad?"

Director Xu said: "We have prepared an account for everyone, and we will transfer living expenses to your card on a regular basis. In addition, we have prepared a credit card for everyone, and the cost of purchasing cultural relics will be paid from this credit card."

There were people around asking questions and discussing. Qu Qingshi sat in the corner, calm and self-possessed on the surface, unable to conceal the spark of excitement in his eyes, writing and drawing unconsciously on the paper.

If you know how to cherish the things in your own home, will you protect the things in other people's homes?Qu Qingshi has inspected many world-renowned museums with the Institute of Cultural Relics, and he has observed the current status of many artifacts by virtue of his ability to see artifacts. He is the most aware of the treatment Chinese cultural relics receive overseas.

Can you imagine the British Museum even falling off the sealing strip?Can you imagine sunlight shining directly on cultural relics?When the terracotta warriors and horses were exhibited in the United States, a finger was directly broken off, which is impossible in China.Yan Zhenqing's "Nephew's Manuscript" was exhibited in Japan in Taiwan, and Japan chose the word "love" and the word "heart" as the wrapping paper for dim sum out of the sorrow and pain in the book, which is extremely sad and ridiculous.

Foreigners appreciate cultural relics not because of the history behind them, but because they are "beautiful" and "rare". They don't know how many Chinese people's beliefs and sustenance are carried behind a piece of cultural relic, and how many people dream of seeing it. .

This is true for famous museums, let alone folk ones.

Therefore, their spiritual condition is also not good, some are sluggish, some lack arms and legs, and some simply fall into deep sleep.If he could bring the cultural relics back to China and preserve them properly, as a researcher of cultural relics, he would probably die without regret.

"Oh, by the way," Dean Shi suddenly said, "Qu Qingshi, come here."

When Qu Qingshi approached, Dean Shi asked him to sit down: "Little Qu, your situation is quite special. Originally, we planned to let another research institute go. She is an old doctor and specializes in ancient calligraphy and painting. I just received the news yesterday that I was pregnant. That's why we found you temporarily, it was urgent, I hope you don't mind."

Qu Qingshi immediately expressed that he didn't mind, and Dean Shi continued: "You Dean Li told me about you, saying that you are very good at identifying cultural relics, you can be said to have a sharp eye, and you are highly recommended to me. We really do Talents like you are also needed, I don’t know if you are willing to join this group, it’s okay if you don’t, but you still need to keep the content of the meeting strictly confidential.”

"Then Xiao Qu, are you willing to join Qi's overseas cultural relics recovery team and contribute to the country?"
