Chapter 170 Yao and Shun Auction

After three or two days in Shanghai, Zhong Yue and Kang Min called. The school start time for the exchange student was about to be held after the National Day holiday. This was the latest time for the school start in Zhong Yue’s impression. But it was fine, after all, he is not wasting his years and his achievements in calligraphy and painting have made great progress with the improvement of these masters and brushwork systems throughout the ages.

Zhong Yue looked at the homepage at the Yaoshun auction, and spent a huge amount of time writing this Jinnong lacquer book "The Unlimited Life".

As the leader of the Eight Ecological Eccentrics in Yangzhou, although for the general public, it may be difficult for lacquer books to accept that kind of rough lines, for the collection industry, Jin Nong's works were already popular collectibles during the Republic of China.

Even modern masters like Xu Beihong and Zhang Daqian have such a good story circulated.

At that time, Zhang Daqian collected a masterpiece of Jin Nong, "The Picture of Returning from the Boat in the Wind and Rain", with exquisite composition, brushwork and styles; while Xu Beihong has a masterpiece of Dong Yuan from the Northern Song Dynasty, "The Picture of the Stream Bank".

From the perspective of value, Dong Yuan painted a painting earlier than Jin Nong, and his fame was higher than Jin Nong. However, Xu Beihong loved Jin Nong's works very much and praised his rebellious spirit against traditional techniques; while Zhang Daqian liked Dong Yuan's works, believing that he had profound skills and unique layout, so the two happily exchanged their collections.

It seems that Xu Beihong has lost money, but there is never an absolute saying in the collection industry to make money or lose money. Unless it is an antique dealer or merchant, it will be a huge amount of money to buy my friends.

In recent years, the prices of Jinnong's calligraphy and paintings have continued to rise, and some fine works have even been sold at high prices of tens of millions. Since Jinnong makes a living by selling calligraphy and paintings, there are many works circulating in the world. The problem that comes with it is the collection boom brought by fine calligraphy and paintings, and the large number of calligraphy and paintings in existence, so there are more fakes.

For example, Wang Ximeng has only one painting that has been passed down from generation to generation in the literature, "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", so there are no fakes and imitations. Even if collectors know that Wang Ximeng's exquisite painting skills, they will be very cautious when starting. However, Jin Nong's works have a large amount of existence in the world, which makes people take care of it and think they have been cheating.

This painting "Long Lives Away" is a masterpiece of lacquer books in Jin Nong's unique style, and can be regarded as a masterpiece. Zhong Yue has seen the album of auction collections, which made Ouyang Kaishan believe that the original words are the seller's narrative.

The previous owner of the collection had experience studying abroad. After returning to China, he failed to go into business and then turned to him. This may be because Ouyang Kaishan believed that this calligraphy was the original. Because he and his wife took photos in Europe. However, what Zhong Yue thought about, Ouyang Kaishan was also alert, that this matter was so coincidental that it was so coincidental that it was a trap.

In response to this, Ouyang Kaishan also invited many calligraphers to the auction site to identify the authenticity of this collection.

At the auction, many collections will fail to be sold. Why? Many auctions are too unreliable and are filled with fakes. Some auction houses even work together with counterfeit experts to make money. However, Yaoshun Auction Company is still quite famous in Shanghai. This work, as well as the joint signatures of six calligraphy and painting appraisal experts from the Calligraphy Association and the calligraphy world, has even made the price of this calligraphy popular, which means refreshing the highest transaction price of Jinnong's works.

There are no more than five people who know the significance of this book to Ouyang Kaishan. Even the think tank he invited did not know the purpose. Ouyang Kaishan often bought some antiques in calligraphy and paintings, so this time he was about to take action. He invited so many friends from the calligraphy world. He thought it was a big amount, so he was more cautious and hired so many people.

In such a large auction, there will naturally be no personal appraisal process for going on stage.

The auction company believes that it is true, and when it goes to the auction, it will either fail to sell or bid for it, and there is no other link. The trading company will not guarantee the authenticity of the collection, and it is purely a risk of normal transactions of art. In other words, if the auction company does not exchange the collection secretly from it, then you will think you are unlucky.

Zhong Yue has been thinking about it for a long time in the past two days, and he has to come over and take a look. It is better than not knowing how to die.

Sitting in Ouyang Ming's Bentley Continental, Zhong Yue experienced the luxury of a rich young man. They are also four-wheeled transportation tools. I heard from this naughty young man that he spent nearly three million yuan in advance, which was his 18-year-old adult gift.

Zhong Yue couldn't help but recall when he was eighteen years old, it seemed that his father cooked a bowl of noodles and two boiled eggs. When he brought them to school, the noodles were all clumped together.

"Brother Yue, what are you doing when you go to the auction? Do you have anything you are interested in to buy?"

Since Zhong Yue's successive methods that night, Ouyang Ming has completely impressed him. Early the next morning, he stood in front of Zhong Yue's door with breakfast, which made Zhong Yue confused. This kid turned against him faster than reading books. However, this rich guy is still useful, at least he doesn't need to spend money to take a taxi when going out.

"I won't buy it, just take a look."

To be honest, it is purely impossible to make a big fortune at auction. Most of the qualified products that can be auctioned are clear and the collection origins are legitimate. In addition to considering their market value, they also have subsequent collection popularity. Using this as a judging indicator for whether the collection has a purchase. This is different from picking up a bargain in the antique market.

Zhong Yue asked, "By the way, will your grandfather come to the auction in person today?"

"It probably won't be true. Usually my second uncle comes here."

"Um."

Zhong Yue knew in his heart that although he had said so much a few days ago, Ouyang Kaishan still believed in the authenticity of this work. Yao and Shun's auction has also had a good reputation in recent years, so he invited a few old friends to watch it. If there was no big problem, at most he would spend more money to win it.

In addition, the auction process is very fast, and there is no time for those participating in the auction to observe or consider it closely. Most collectors work hard on the picture album in advance, and the auction is just a bidding and bidding, and there is no other fancy things.

"Brother Yue, is your family a big family that cannot be found in the valley? Are your elders all the big calligraphers? They just don't care about the name of a calligrapher or a trophy?"

Zhong Yue leaned against the leather chair and looked at the backward street tree outside the car window, "No. My father is a fruit farmer, you think too much. I am the only one in my family now. At best, there is a master and senior brother."

“…”

A hint of disappointment flashed across Ouyang Ming's face. This was not the same as the style he had seen, but it immediately connected with another sense of the picture.

"I understand, then your master must be a paradise, just like Linghu Chong, isn't that true?"

Zhong Yue had a headache. If Ouyang Ming was a low-minded person in his eyes before, he would be a naughty man and a talkative person now.

"Can you drive your car properly and don't mess with these things?"
