treasure hunter

As soon as this remark came out, everyone nodded one after another. Among them, there are many people who pretend to be fake. It's not that these people can't see the mystery of this painting, but they are not sure whether the other half of Ju Ran's "A Picture of Thousand Peaks and Valleys" is Dong Yuan. Ghostwriter.

Some people even see the second realm, what is the second realm?

If the appreciation of this painting is divided into four realms, then the first realm is to see that this is Juran’s work. There is no signature and author on this painting, only the inscription and the collector’s seal. I want to see that this is unexpectedly Works require some calligraphy and painting skills.

The second realm is to see that the painting is only half painted, and the other half was written by someone else. As for who wrote it, they can't tell what happened.

The third realm is to guess that the ghostwriter is Dong Yuan, but it is only a guess. Due to the limitations of experience and eyesight, there is not enough evidence to find, so I am not sure.

The highest state is to find enough evidence to be convinced that this is a painting completed by Dong Yuan and Ju Ran.

There are so many old experts present, and it is unknown how many of them can reach the fourth realm. Pei Miao guessed that Zhou Qingyuan must have seen the fourth realm, after all, he missed this painting.

Next, it's Zhou Qingyuan's turn to share his experience of picking up leaks. After talking about the experience of picking up leaks, he has to give an in-depth explanation of this painting, and even draw inferences. Some experiences and techniques can be extended and applied to the identification of other paintings superior.

Pan Jinting and other listening guides all took out their pens and small notebooks, and wrote down the knowledge points and experiences shared by Zhou Qingyuan. Although they all wore sports cameras around their necks and were constantly videotaping, taking notes has become their responsibility. habit.

Pei Miao also listened very carefully. Although he is proud, he is not arrogant. He knows the truth that stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade. He also knows that he is just a wall hanging. It is definitely not as good as these old experts present here. Many of the experience and knowledge points shared by them are already known to them, and some are not known to them.

For example, Zhou Qingyuan mentioned that Juran’s painting style has inherited Dong Yuan’s, so why Dong Yuan’s painting, there are only a few pebbles scattered among the Lin Lu, and the brush and ink are delicate and smooth, and the ink used is slightly thick. Logically speaking, Ju Ran's style is influenced by Dong Yuan, how could Dong Yuan himself not resemble his own style?

Zhou Qingyuan raised a question, and then he analyzed and answered the question by himself. In fact, his answer was not an answer, but just put forward some assumptions and conjectures. There is a kind of conjecture that Dong Yuan made deliberately to prevent others from seeing it. Coming out is not my style.

People always form muscle memory when they are doing things they are proficient in. Many old smokers habitually light a cigarette with a cigarette in their left hand, because they do not realize that they are smoking.

Dong Yuan was also worried that when imitating Ju Ran, he would bring his own style into it.

Although Ju Ran inherits Dong Yuan's style, it is not a replica. The style is the same, but it varies from person to person, and each individual has its own characteristics. Otherwise, if Ju Ran and Dong Yuan's paintings are not signed, these old experts cannot tell the difference. Who drew it?

This is just his first conjecture, and the second conjecture is that Dong Yuan's painting style changes with age, and the general direction of the painting style remains unchanged, but some details will change, and this change, some Time is related to mood. In order to prove this point, he also listed some other Dong Yuan's paintings as proof.

After listening to him, everyone applauded, especially those younger guides, who have relatively little knowledge and experience in antiques. It is a rare opportunity to hear these senior experts share valuable experience. The three-year exchange meeting , to attract antique masters from all over the country in a competitive way, and let these masters take turns to give lectures to the young people in the museum for free, which is really a good idea.

Pei Miao also felt that what Zhou Qingyuan said was very good. He deserved to be the top appraiser of Rongbaozhai, and he was also worthy of being the representative of Kyoto. If you think about it carefully, if you want to find someone in Jinling who can compare to Zhou Qingyuan, Huang Lao is probably the only one. .

Such a comparison immediately reveals the gap between the Jinling antique world and the Kyoto antique world. The gap is not a little bit.

Zhou Qingyuan alone took half an hour. According to this speed, the leak-picking competition would take several days, and then the pre-match leak-picking link.

However, it should be faster to pick up leaks before the game. After all, there are not many people who can pick up leaks in Kyoto three days before the game. According to past experience, it should be three to five, but this time it may be a little more, because Pei Miao One person picked up four leaks in the three days before the competition (Oboi's book case is not counted).

Next, the second person on the registration list appeared, still the representative of Kyoto. The representative of Kyoto was the boss of Tianbao Pavilion, Huang Runan, who was 60 years old this year.

Huang Runan is not just the boss of Tianbao Pavilion, he is also a specially invited treasure appraisal expert of two TV treasure appraisal programs, a special treasure appraisal expert invited by the Kyoto Antique Bureau, and has published five books on porcelain treasure appraisal. Fame is great.

Huang Runan is best at appraising porcelain and antiques, and the work he displayed on the table this time is also a piece of porcelain, a large painting jar. When he saw this painting jar, Pei Miao was stunned, it looked familiar. , Why does it look exactly the same as the Wanli painting jar that I once picked up?

Next, everyone took turns to form a group to come forward to taste.

Pei Miao didn't even need to go forward, sat on the stool and unfolded the whole mind domain, and checked all the details of this painting vat, not to mention, the leaks of this painting vat were the same as those of his own painting vat. It is a kiln transformation product, the glaze color is too bright, and there is no seal, but... his painting jar is a fake.

The starting point of the counterfeiters seems to be to let the people who pick up the leak step on the pit, and the deeper point is to test the water. That's right, this painting tank comes from "Boguxuan".

Although Boguxuan has been wiped out, more than 100 test products have entered the antique market. The Palace Museum has launched a thorough investigation of these more than 100 test products. So far, more than 50 pieces of Boguxuan have been found. There are still dozens of counterfeit porcelains that have not been found. It is not necessary to know that these dozens of fake porcelains should have been bought back for collection.

It stands to reason that Huang Runan, as a well-known expert in Kyoto, should actively respond to the call of the Palace Museum and cooperate with the work to take out the porcelain collections he has recently acquired for carbon fourteen identification one by one, but he did not, why, because he is confident.

He is too confident. He thinks that he is the top porcelain appraiser in the country. He has never seen the horror of Zhu Fang, nor Boguxuan's fake porcelain. He thinks that his eyes are the best ruler in the world. The instrument may go wrong, but his own eyes will never go wrong, because he has never drilled a hole in porcelain.

So after he received the notice from the Palace Museum, he didn't take it seriously at all.

It was Pei Miao's turn to go up to taste. Pei Miao walked around the painting vat, showing a slightly surprised expression. The hidden money of Boguxuan on this painting vat was actually encrypted, and he could see it in an ordinary way. Less than underglaze dark money.

In fact, it is not a sophisticated technology, but the reflection of the glaze is cleverly used to protect the dark underside. This is a bit like watching fish in the water on the shore. No fish in the water.

Pei Miao took out the sunglasses she was carrying and put them on, and looked at the dark money again. As expected, part of the reflection was filtered out, and after careful inspection, the dark money hidden in the plum pattern could still be seen.

When Pei Miao and his group returned to their seats, the host Wang Yihai stepped forward and said with a smile, "Everyone has finished appreciating this Wanli official kiln painting vat with plum patterns. If you have any questions or objections, please let me know." suggest."

No one speaks.

Pei Miao looked at the crowd and thought to himself: "Sure enough, Boguxuan's skill in making counterfeit porcelain is really superb, so many experts have all been eye-catching."

Wang Yihai said again: "Since everyone has no objection, then we will invite our referees to come out and taste."

Pei Miao stood up suddenly, and said slowly, "I have objections."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone looked at Pei Miao in astonishment, and the same thought came to everyone's mind - "What is this yellow-haired boy doing?"

Huang Runan got up and walked slowly to the table, looked at Pei Miao, and said with a smile on his face, "If you have any questions, just ask, and I will answer them for you."

Pei Miao said, "I don't have doubts, I have objections."

Huang Runan's smile froze on his face.

All the old experts present changed their faces and frowned. They felt that the young people nowadays are a bit outrageous, and they like to sensationalize. So many experts have no objection. How can he, a brat, have any objection?

It was Wang Yihai who reacted quickly and hurriedly said: "Mr. Pei, if you have any objections, please speak up."

Pei Miao said, "This is not a Wanli official kiln painting jar, it's a fake."

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar, and then many experts sneered. Even Zhang Tongshou on the stage was shocked. After being shocked, he was also worried about Pei Miao. What is Pei Miao doing, isn't he afraid of being embarrassed? ?

Zhang Tongshou also felt that it was impossible for so many old experts to drill at the same time. It must be that Pei Miao made a mistake. It is not terrible to be wrong. People challenge.

Lu Hongru was also sweating for Pei Miao, he moved close to Zhang Tongshou's ear, and said in a low voice, "Pei Miao... well, how can I help him to end this?"

Zhang Tongshou thought for a while, and felt that he should stop the matter before it got serious, so he got up and said, "Pei Miao, let us judge the team to take a look first, and then you can judge."

Pei Miao frowned slightly when she heard the words, and thought to herself: "I made an objection before your judging team's tasting, but I didn't want you to follow suit. All the bosses in the dignified museum are all eye-catching. This scene is not good. Since you Don't blame me for taking the initiative to step on the pit."

Just as Pei Miao was about to agree, Huang Runan suddenly raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute! President Zhang!"

Zhang Tongshou said: "What instructions does Shopkeeper Huang have?"

"I don't dare to give instructions." Huang Runan said with a chuckle, "The rules of this exchange meeting are that the contestants from all sides will taste first, and then express their questions and objections, and then the judging panel will make the final tasting judge. Huang thinks Since this young man said that the porcelain I picked up was fake, let him talk about the evidence first, otherwise it will break the rules of the exchange meeting and make others think that we, the older generation, do not give young people a chance. "

What he said completely stunned Zhang Tongshou to death. Although Zhang Tongshou was annoyed, he was speechless and could only nod his head and said, "What the shopkeeper Huang said makes sense. I'm just impatient. Let Pei Miao first Give him your opinion."

After he finished speaking, he sat down, exchanged glances with Lu Hongru, and the two sighed secretly.

Huang Runan turned around, looked at Pei Miao with a smile, and said, "Young man, you say this piece of porcelain of mine is a fake, please come up and point out the evidence, okay?"

"Okay." Pei Miao smiled slightly, walked to the table, circled half a circle, then pointed to a plum blossom on the vat, and said, "It's inside this plum blossom."

"Oh?" Huang Runan raised his eyebrows and smiled, and took a magnifying glass to observe the plum blossom carefully.

It's a pity that the glazed surface of this kiln transformed porcelain is much more reflective than ordinary porcelain. Even if Huang Runan held a magnifying glass, he couldn't see any clues about this plum blossom.

He stared at the plum blossoms for a full 5 minutes, then straightened up and looked at Pei Miao with a smile: "Young man, this is the National Antique Collectors Association Exchange Meeting, which is held only once every three years, and it is very solemn. If you talk nonsense and affect the progress of the exchange meeting, you have to be responsible."

Pei Miao nodded: "Of course I know, I didn't talk nonsense, why, you didn't find evidence?"

"There is no evidence." Huang Runan snorted coldly, "If you don't believe me, you might as well come up and have a look."

"Let me take a look." Hearing this, an old man hurried forward and took out a magnifying glass while walking. This old man was the one who was talking about Pei Miao outside.

The old man came to the table, held a magnifying glass and asked, "Where are you looking?"

Pei Miao pointed to the plum blossom and said, "This is the plum blossom."

The old man quickly looked at the plum blossom with a magnifying glass. He pouted his buttocks and looked at it for a long time, then retracted the magnifying glass, turned to Pei Miao, and reprimanded him old-fashionedly: "Young man, there is no evidence in this plum blossom. Is this exchange meeting just a joke! It’s simply unreasonable! Chairman Zhang, I think it’s too bad to directly give zero points to the representatives of Jinling and Shanghai’s dual meetings in this session!”

Pei Miao frowned and said, "You can't see it because your eyesight is poor."

Since the old man is not polite, Pei Miao will not be used to him, and he will be angry directly, without saying any vicious words, a word of poor eyesight can irritate him, these old experts, who would like to be called poor eyesight , and to be said so by a fledgling boy, is it tolerable or unbearable!
