Because of a discussion among the fishermen, they had developed an interest in treasure hunting. After looking up some information, they went on a trip while looking for treasure. In the end, they really found it. Moreover, they found one of the world's famous sunken ships. How could they not be lucky? It was as if they had slept with the goddess of luck. This caused many treasure hunters and treasure hunting companies to cry in the toilet after exhausting countless efforts and energy but still finding nothing.
"Mr. Sun, is there as much treasure on the San José as rumored?”Another reporter asked.
"About 11 million gold and silver coins." Sun Jian thought for a moment and said. Two tons of gemstones, plus other miscellaneous items, it was almost the same as the legends.”
This answer caused countless reporters to exclaim. After all, they had never seen this treasure before, so they did not know the exact number of treasures. When they reported it, they reported it according to the legendary value. Now that they heard from Sun Jian that the San José really had as much treasure as the legends said, they couldn't help but feel incredulous. It was far beyond their expectations.
"Hello, Mr. Sun, I'm a reporter from the Spanish television station. May I ask Mr. Sun if you have any plans to return the San José to Spain? After all, the San José is the ship of our country's Philip V. It belongs to Spain."
"Hehe, this Spanish reporter, when you asked this question, did you know about the international salvage law? I can't agree that the ownership of this ship is Spain. are two reasons
First, I salvaged the San José in international waters.
Second, the San José was a merchant ship. Even if it had once belonged to the Spanish fleet, it could not change the fact that it was a merchant ship. Moreover, it was a merchant ship that had sunk for more than 300 years. According to the international salvage law of the world, treasure and sunken ships that were more than 200 years old belonged to whoever found them.
Therefore, the ownership of the San José is now mine. I have no obligation to give it to anyone."
Sun Jian then showed the reporter the location of the San José and the video of the salvage, as well as the captain's diary that proved that the San José was a merchant ship.
This undoubtedly proved that what Sun Jian said was true. Moreover, even if it wasn't salvaged in international waters, and the San José was a warship.
Then it belonged to Sun Jian because it had sunk for more than 200 years. This fact made many people speechless. After all, this was the law, and it was universal.
Even if Spain were to go to court with Sun Jian, they would lose the case based on this point alone. Therefore, Spain did not even mention taking Sun Jian to court. He could only use the title of honorary citizen to trick Sun Jian.
"Hello, Mr. Sun, I'm a reporter from the People's Daily. How do you plan to deal with this treasure?”
A familiar voice entered Sun Jian's ears. He didn't expect it to be a reporter from People's Daily. This made Sun Jian perk up.
Moreover, the questions asked by the People's Daily reporter were also what many people wanted to know.
Sun Jian pondered for a moment and said,"Cultural relics and works of art belong to the spiritual wealth of all mankind. I hope that these gold and silver coins, jewelry, gems, and sunken ships can be placed in the museum for art exhibition so that people all over the world can appreciate these works of art.
However, due to my limited ability, I hope that an organization or country will take over this treasure and put it in a museum for art exhibition for people to visit.”
Sun Jian's words caused everyone to applaud. The reporters of the police station even gave Sun Jian a thumbs up. This child's words were really beautiful.
"Are you planning to sell the entire San José?”a reporter asked.
" Yes, I've already entrusted the San José to Sotheby's Auction House for an auction. I think this will be more conducive to the preservation of this human artistic heritage.”Sun Jian said.
After all, the San José was a legendary treasure in the world. If it was auctioned as a whole, the price would be higher, which was more in line with Sun Jian's interests. Sotheby's also suggested that Sun Jian auction it as a whole.
"Hello, Mr. Sun, I'm a reporter from Sina.com. According to what you said, this treasure is similar to the legend. In other words, after the auction, you will receive more than 2 billion US dollars.”
He had never thought about this question. Sun Jian thought for a moment and smiled."I haven't thought about it, but I plan to invest some of the money into charity to help more vulnerable groups. After all, I'm a Chinese, and I'll consider other countries and regions later.”
"Mr. Sun…"
……………………
Amidst the commotion, the three-hour-long press conference finally came to an end. Sun Jian's throat was hoarse from talking. This was the first time in his life that he was being interviewed. Furthermore, he was being surrounded by so many reporters. This really made him unable to withstand it. The reporters from all over the world who came to participate in the press conference returned with smiles on their faces.
Sun Jian's interview made the headlines of all the major media outlets around the world.
For a time, the owner of the San José, Sun Jian, became the focus of the world. In the United States, in the United States, in Italy, in France, and in all countries of the world, a man and a shipwreck treasure worth 2.2 billion US dollars instantly ranked at the top of the search rankings on various search websites.
Many people were curious about how an ordinary tourist in Colombia found the San José. Of course, the more thrilling and exciting the treasure hunt was, the more eye-catching it would be.
Of course, the big newspaper was full of integrity and truthfully reported the entire process of the treasure hunt.
Sun Jian's entire treasure-hunting process wasn't particularly thrilling. It was rather dull, but when the others saw it, they became even more envious and jealous of Sun Jian. Many onlookers expressed that they had never seen such a lucky person in their lives. This made many treasure hunters and treasure hunting companies feel uncomfortable.
Compared to the big newspapers, which were full of integrity, some tabloids, which were looking for sales, had lost their integrity.
In order to increase the sales of the newspaper, he wrote whatever he wanted to attract people's attention. The whole treasure hunt process was thrilling, and the sales of the newspaper soared.
If Sun Jian had gone through life and death tests with the beauty during the treasure hunt, defeated the bad guy, defeated the sea monster, and finally obtained the treasure, then lived a shameless and happy life with the beauty, it would have been even more perfect.
This was something that everyone was familiar with. Adventure novels and Hollywood blockbusters were all like this. It was an adventure and treasure hunt routine that readers and audiences would never get tired of.
Perhaps Hollywood screenwriters had already started writing scripts about the sunken ship's treasure.
Don't think too highly of the integrity of a Hollywood screenwriter. In order to cater to the needs of the audience, they could make up any story.
