Chapter 310: Entertainment and Antiques, Part 2
Chapter 310 Entertainment Antiques
"It's like the boss of Geely Group. Can you say that they are not celebrities?" Zhou Fugui said with a smile, "If someone can make a 'Gely' brand so big now, he can definitely be considered a big star in our Linhai area, right?"
"I said Uncle Zhou, why don't you say you are also a big star?" Jia Sidao looked at Zhou Fugui with some amusement and said, "You know, your 'weekly diary' is also very famous. When I was appraising, I heard from several collectors that one of them was from Wenzhou, which was specially for you today. As a result, because the things are jade, they were assigned to me. When I appraised their things, they were still unhappy."
"Really?" Zhou Fugui realized it later, was surprised and said, "If I had known this, I would have gone to identify jadeite. It would not be like the jasper and strange stones on my side. I was so busy that I was almost breathless. I couldn't say that Xiao Jia, you will come to help me at that time."
After saying a few words, Jia Sidao and Ji Yanran chuckled. Even Lao Wang, who was in the provincial capital, nodded slightly and smiled!
"By the way, Ji Yatou, what's going on with the TV show you are talking about?" Zhou Fugui asked Ji Yanran and said, "I'm not ready to go on TV. Don't shoot me in at that time." After saying this, Zhou Fugui was still as low-key as he was, and he must keep a low-key attitude.
Seeing Jia Sidao, he was ready to refute him well.
"Uncle Zhou, if you don't appear on TV, I will not be able to explain to Ali at that time." Ji Yanran smiled and joked, "She told me last night that you came to the appraisal site today and will definitely sort it out carefully. If it is normal, it will be rare."
"That girl, I'm so talkative..." Uncle Zhou Fugui said angrily when he heard this. However, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he had no intention of blaming the 'that girl' in his mouth.
Seeing that other experts, besides Zhou Fugui and Lao Wang, were gathered here, Ji Yanran simply explained it more clearly and said: "Everyone should know in advance that the TV station will participate in this appraisal conference?... However, this time, the TV station has prepared a large-scale treasure appraisal program, which is for our appraisal activity. More than a dozen hosts should be dispatched!"
"A dozen hosts?" Before Ji Yanran finished speaking, some of the experts muttered in a low voice.
"Yes." Ji Yanran nodded and said, "It's just a dozen. However, if you are a professional host, there are only two. The others are all famous people from all walks of life who have come to play guest appearances. Their common feature is that they have a certain level of vision for the antique industry..."
Jia Sidao did not argue about this. Perhaps, there are indeed many experts in the antique industry in other industries, but if you say that those hosts, general managers, teachers, each have a deep understanding of the appraisal, then what should these experts on the scene do? Even Jia Sidao thinks that those who play guest hosts are more suitable for collectors.
However, because Ji Yanran is also a lecturer, Jia Sidao naturally would not say what he thoughts in his heart. After looking at the eyes of several experts next to him, everyone knew it well, and it was done.
"The whole program recording program is firstly the hosts to select their respective interview subjects in the square. If you see any collector's works, which are known to them, are real, or are used as old, or are just imitations. As long as the host appraised correctly, it will be done." Ji Yanran explained, "Then the host will lead them to the identified things and collectors themselves to experts in various categories for the final appraisal..."
"In other words, these hosts are also competing?" Jia Sidao listened and understood a little. This is the gimmick specially created by the TV station. Antiques themselves are mysterious. If the appraisal of antiques is just an appraisal, perhaps only those who are interested in collecting can become audiences. But if celebrities from all walks of life are brought in and then the competition for antiques identification, then the effect will be very different.
If these hosts are attractive enough, and the mystery, tradition and high value of antiques are complemented by the mystery, tradition and high value, the whole program will naturally attract attention.
However, because the antiques selected by the hosts are uncertain. Then, it is natural that there is no way to determine them in advance if they find an expert to finally make the appraisal. As for what Jia Sidao was curious about, the event had been started for an hour, and no one from the TV station had come in to film and interview it, because those hosts are now selecting the objects they need to appraise in the square...
"It seems that this is really a good event, a good program." Uncle Zhou Fugui nodded after hearing this and said, "Maybe, next time, my 'Weekly Diary' will start to hold such an event. I guess it will increase a lot of popularity, right?"
"I think, Uncle Zhou, your 'weekly diary' doesn't need such an activity. Anyway, in Linhai, as long as you play antiques, who doesn't know your 'weekly diary'?" Jia Sidao said with a smile, "But my jade store is about to open. I can't say that when it opens, you can learn some publicity methods from this appraisal activity."
As he spoke, Jia Sidao began to look forward to the opening of his jade store.
"You boy, you really have nothing to say." Zhou Fugui smiled faintly on his face.
However, because Jia Sidao mentioned the jade store that was about to open, it was invisibly an advertisement for his jade store in the industry circle!
"Xiao Jia, your jade store has not opened yet?" Lao Wang next to him asked curiously. Finally, when Jia Sidao talked about the general day of opening, he smiled and said, "Brother, I will definitely come to support my personal place! However, I can't afford any expensive bride gifts..."
"Old Wang, if you can come, it will be the best bet I received. Hahaha..." Jia Sidao also responded with a smile. The other few people couldn't help laughing when they saw the smile on Lao Wang's face. It seemed that even when they were appraisal, they were very serious and careful and even old-fashioned experts, their performance at this moment was very humorous and cheerful!
Ten minutes passed quickly. The experts who were joking each other also sat in their seats again. However, when Jia Sidao was about to go back before turning around, Ji Yanran reminded him with a joke: "Xiao Jia, then, if a host brings a collector to your side for the appraisal, don't make mistakes and talk nonsense?"
Speaking of which, Ji Yanran is also one of the organizers. Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have gone to the scene to help with the on-site appraisal? At this moment, she specially reminded Jia Sidao, and naturally she realized that among so many experts, except herself, Jia Sidao is a novice.
"Miss Ji, don't worry." Jia Sidao nodded and said, "I understand."
The market conditions of the entire antique market are very chaotic, especially in price evaluation. The jade industry is slightly better. After all, all the characteristics of jade itself determine the value orientation of most of the value orientations! The other carvings and the like are just something that some experts will like.
If customers choose jade bracelets, jade ring faces, etc. in ordinary times, as long as the carving, polishing and polishing process is above the standard, there is not much attention! Therefore, the entire jade industry looks nothing more than whether the things are real or not, whether the color is right, and this is a trick.
As long as the authenticity of the jade texture can be determined, the value gap in it cannot be considered very huge. Unlike other antique categories, when talking about prices, there will be many historical backgrounds and other relationships! Different people have a big gap in the price positioning offered by them.
Now that the TV station is here to record the program, there is no explanation in advance. If you really meet Jia Sidao, you naturally need to try to get close to the essence of some jade jewelry in terms of valuation. Otherwise, it would be a loss not only the face of the TV station, the face of the organizer, but also the face of Jia Sidao himself!
As soon as he sat down, there was no time to identify the appraisal, the number of people in the queue in front of Jia Sidao began to gradually decrease. Who asked Jia Sidao to identify jade jewelry alone? Although there were many people at the entire antique appraisal conference, the number of people who came to do jade jewelry appraisal can be considered relatively small.
Jia Sidao and Ji Yanran were busy for a while and they began to stay idle.
"Or, Xiao Jia, come and help me identify agate or something?" Uncle Zhou Fugui took the time to ask Jia Sidao, "Look, Ji Yanran is helping to identify nephrite jewelry. Look, are you too..."
The meaning of the words is nothing more than that Ji Yanran is a girl who knows that she has come to help. You, Jia Sidao, aren't going to sit there and watch it, and then wait for more than ten or twenty minutes before a jade collector will appear?
"Well, Uncle Zhou, I think I'd better forget it." Jia Sidao knew how much he was. He shook his hand and said, "Besides, although I came to help others identify it, you also know that I am just good at jadeite. I don't have the ability to see anything else..."
"Then let you go for the time being." Zhou Fugui was also very busy. Seeing that Jia Sidao had no intention of saving the place, the meaning in his words was not completely ruling, so he ignored this place. Jia Sidao looked at the other experts and seemed to be quite busy. It was not a good idea to sit alone and sit idle. He walked to Ji Yanran and greeted her for a while. Jia Sidao left the house and went to other places to make a walk.
In addition to his love for jade, Jia Sidao is also very interested in porcelain and other things. Recently, he has also been very interested in ancient coins. At this moment, although Jia Sidao did not bring his collections with him, he went to another special session to see how the experts identified it, or to see what other collectors would bring, but it is a very eBay thing!
In jade jewelry, what Jia Sidao can see is nothing more than jade bracelets, ring faces, pendants, etc. At most, it is to distinguish what era it is. In addition, it is all kinds of imitations.
Jia Sidao was not very interested in these things!
Now, I decided to take this opportunity to visit other appraisal sessions. Jia Sidao naturally started with miscellaneous items under the same roof. In this way, in Jia Sidao's idea, if a jade collector came at this time, he could quickly return to his position, so he would not have to trouble Ji Yanran, and he would have to check the nephrite and identify the jadeite again.
I got to the miscellaneous group with great interest and first chatted with some collection enthusiasts in line.
The things carried by the collectors here are a variety of different types. Moreover, there are many other things that Jia Sidao cannot name. Among them, there is one thing that Jia Sidao looked at and saw the thing that the collector held in his hands. At first glance, it looked a bit like a cigarette box. Jia Sidao thought about it, it was quite beautiful. The colors on it were black and yellow, and it was not very uniform.
As soon as Jia Sidao walked over, the collector was slightly stunned at first. Because at this time, Jia Sidao walked directly from the expert table on the jewelry and jade side. Although the same room was divided into left and right sides, it was still quite conspicuous that Jia Sidao walked over so directly.
However, after Jia Sidao explained, the collector was enthusiastic and immediately took the things in his hand to Jia Sidao!
At the appraisal meeting, when they met people, they had the same interests and hobbies. When they met, they were mostly very enthusiastic. And the collectors talked about their own things, such as the history of the Tathagata, the value of their own things, the age of their own things, etc. Even if they were last three days and three nights, they would not feel tired.
After Jia Sidao took over, he looked carefully and felt that there were some strange places on the surface of the whole thing. Some places were relatively transparent, while others were opaque. After asking, the collector shook his head and said that he didn't know what material this thing was!
"That's it," Jia Sidao continued, muttering, "Is this thing a tortoise turtle?" Tortoise turtle is the shell of a large turtle. This turtle seems to be only produced in Hainan, and is now a national-level protected animal. In the past, the glasses worn by wealthy families had to be made of tortoise turtle, and the chips in them were crystals.
Jia Sidao knew this thing, thanks to the time in junior high school, he felt that his eyes were a little myopic. He wanted to wear a pair of glasses. Then, he found some information related to glasses. Later, he didn't know where he suddenly saw the frame of glasses. Forget it, he even made it with turtle shells, and immediately remembered it. However, if that's the case, it would be useful to remember it.
Since becoming interested in the antique industry, Jia Sidao didn't know what happened. It seemed that everything he experienced from childhood to adulthood had a deep impression of them in his mind! The tortoiseshell glasses are like this, and the copper coins he collected at home when he went home!
However, Jia Sidao was not sure whether this thing made of tortoiseshell was a cigarette box! So when it was the turn of this collector to come to the expert for an appraisal, Jia Sidao naturally stood by and wanted to listen carefully to the experts' opinions.
But this expert was good. As soon as he took over this thing, he said, "What is this thing? It's just a broken box?" The meaning of the words was that the collector was not. He even gave a "breaking box" for identification!
Suddenly, the expression on Jia Sidao's face turned a little dark!
What kind of expert are these? Not to mention the many enthusiastic collectors coming here, Jia Sidao, as one of the appraisers of the appraisal conference, feels that his face is dull!
Although, many times, because the organizer requires that every thing be said, some things are like jade jewelry made of gum that Jia Sidao encountered, there is nothing to say at all. Fake is fake, a matter of one sentence.
I can’t discuss with my collectors how to use gum to imitate jade?
However, Jia Sidao would at least give a rough explanation of what should be paid attention to when purchasing so as to avoid receiving jade jewelry made of gum in the future! Even if this same thing is said, Jia Sidao needs to repeat it several times in just one hour!
However, as an expert at the antique appraisal conference, since you are here, you must at least explain it to others clearly?
Chapter completed!
