Second, the recourse of the spokesperson of the Spanish government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the owners.h.i.+p of the s.h.i.+pwreck has also attracted the attention of many people around the world.

In 1492, Columbus discovered the New World of the Americas.

In the following centuries, Spain savagely plundered a large amount of gold, silver, precious stones, sugar, coffee, etc. in South America.

Spain used merchant s.h.i.+ps or formed a fleet of gold to transport these huge wealth back to Spain.

After the British, French and Dutch countries rushed to plunder the wealth of the New World, they must compete with Spain, which has already achieved the dominance of the Caribbean. Therefore, it needs various forces to attack the Spaniards. When the naval power of the country is insufficient or inconvenient to directly come out, The Various government have adopted the method of issuing private licenses to encourage civilian vessels to attack the merchant s.h.i.+ps of the Spaniard.

Many Spanish merchant s.h.i.+ps and gold transporters sank on the seabed due to 'legitimate' pirate attacks and sea storms.

From the South American colonies to the Spanish mainland, a large number of Spanish vessels carrying gold, silver, precious stones, sugar, coffee and other materials plundered in the colonies of South America were sunk.

In addition to the South American colony to the Spanish mainland route.

There are also a large number of Spanish s.h.i.+ps sank on the route from the colonies of Southeast Asia to Spain. Most of these s.h.i.+ps are loaded with gold, silver, precious stones, pearls and goods plundered from the colonies.

In addition, in 1980, a US marine expedition company called 'Fortune Savior' announced the discovery of a s.h.i.+pwreck, suspected to be the 17th century Spanish Navy's "Atocha Madonna", with a value of up to $400 million. About 300,000 items. Due to the lack of experience of the Spanish government in dealing with such incidents at the time, the s.h.i.+pwreck wealth was eventually auctioned by the salvage company, and the Spanish government only recovered some items through auction.

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

In addition to the development of the Spanish National Underwater Archaeological Heritage Protection Plan, an expert group was set up to develop a "treasure map" of the Spanish seabed to determine the specific location and loading of the s.h.i.+pwreck.

It is also active lawsuit in the Spanish vessels that are being salvaged by treasure hunters or treasure hunt companies recourse.

in 2007, the American salvage company Odyssey Ocean Exploration and the Spanish frigate "Mercedes" was, loaded with 17 tons aboard treasures, including 590,000 gold coins, silver coins and other gold ornaments, utensils and artifacts, worth up to $ 500 million that was the largest s.h.i.+pwreck wealth in the history of the s.h.i.+pwreck.

Since then, the Spanish government and the Odyssey Ocean Exploration Company have been fighting for the owners.h.i.+p of the treasure for five years, and finally, the Justice City Court of Florida ruled These treasures should be returned to Spain.

However, Spain's success in recovering the treasures on the "Mercedes" frigate is very rare in the world.

The main reason for this successful recovery of the artifacts is the identification of the "Mercedes" s.h.i.+pwreck. It is a wars.h.i.+p, a wars.h.i.+p is a state property, and the act of transporting treasure belongs to the country behavior, Spain has a legitimate right to belong "Mercedes" wreck.

And more s.h.i.+pwrecks and treasure the s.h.i.+p to be sold or auctioned treasure hunter or a treasure hunt company.

The Chinese s.h.i.+pwreck 'Belitung' in the Tang Dynasty was sold by the 'Seabed Exploration Company' for 30 million US Dollar in Singapore's Sentosa.

More than 1 million pieces of Chinese porcelain in the 'Tai Dynasty' period, more than 600,000 pieces of 'Hailao Porcelain' were slightly destroyed, and the remaining 356,000 pieces of porcelain were s.h.i.+pped to Germany for auction, totaling 30 million US Dollar.

In 1985, Mel Fisher and his family finally found the Spanish s.h.i.+p "Mrs. Atoka". The s.h.i.+p that claims to be the biggest treasure on the seabed has 40 tons of treasures, of which nearly 8 tons of gold and 500 kilograms of gems. The value of all treasures is about 400 million US dollars, Mel Fisher has become a rich man.

The US 'Republic', ...

Chen Rui has very sufficient and reliable evidence that the 'Lucky Star' is a merchant s.h.i.+p and does not belong to the Spanish state. The act of transporting treasure is not a state act.

And the salvage site is on the high seas, away from the territorial waters and legal jurisdiction of any country. Pa.s.sed these two points of the "International Salvage Law" and related evidence, Chen Rui is very certain to have the owners.h.i.+p of the 'Lucky Star' s.h.i.+pwreck.

Chen Rui's series of evidences that he can prove strongly to the affiliation of the 'Lucky Star' also made the Spanish government and government temporarily smoother, but did not give up on the s.h.i.+pwreck of the Lucky Star.

Not to mention, hundreds of gold coins, 300,000 silver coins are very well preserved, almost intact, the source, age and characteristics of the coins are different, and have very high cultural value.

Moreover, the 'Lucky Star' is well preserved due to its long-term burial in the mud of the seabed, isolation of air and seawater soaking and corrosion.

The 'Lucky Star' is a Spanish sailing s.h.i.+p. As a symbol of Spain's maritime hegemony, it is of great significance to the Spanish people.

Although Spain is now a common country in Europe, many Spanish people still have pride on the maritime hegemony of Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries.

Therefore, in an interview with Chen Rui, I hope that the overall sale of the 'Lucky Star' will attract the attention of many countries, inst.i.tutions and individuals.

First contact Chen Rui's National Museum of Prado in Spain, curator Francis Reno, accompanied by the staff of the Prado National Museum and the staff of the Spanish Emba.s.sy in the United States.

In addition to the National Museum of Prado in Spain, the Metropolitan Museum of New York, the National Museum of England and several inst.i.tutions and individuals expressed interest in the s.h.i.+pwreck of the Lucky Star.
