Chapter 343: Twelve Zodiac Beast Heads. [343]
Summary
In 1860, British and French forces invaded the Old Summer Palace, stealing over one million cultural relics, including the Twelve Zodiac Animal Heads. An American dealer later bought three heads for $1,500 and auctioned them for $230,000. By 2007, the Horse Head fetched nearly $70 million. During an auction, tensions rose between Chinese bidders and a foreigner, who aimed to keep the heads from returning to China. Zhou Zheng raised his bid to 450 million, but the host revealed his funds were insufficient. Zhou Zheng then proposed using a previously auctioned item to secure the purchase, asserting the authenticity of the Bronze Thaotie cup he previously bid on, claiming it was a counterfeit.Full content
