He also purchased Zhang Daqian's Copy of Guan Tong's Landscape at 40 million yuan and Li Keran's "red classic" work Shaoshan Mountain at 83.9 million yuan.
He paid another 33 million yuan for a set of 12 blue-and-white "hua shen (fairies of flowers)" cups which were produced by the official kilns during the reign of Qing emperor Kangxi.
The works of art, as usual, will enrich the collection of Shanghai-based Long Museum that Liu co-founded with his wife, Wang Wei.
