Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After arriving home, Zhou Xia had time to carefully observe this unfinished work and feel the deep feelings of depression and sadness contained in it.

    Then, he went online to learn more about Bada Shanren Zhu Da¡¯s life story, painting style, photos of his handed down works, etc.

    But for verifying whether this painting was made by Bada Shanren, the information on the Internet is still far from enough. It is best to find relevant records from historical materials.

    At the same time, Zhou Xia did not forget to search for several other painters of the same period to see if there might be works by them.

    Time passed quickly, and the search was fruitless, but Zhou Xia found that she was hungry, so she went to cook dumplings to eat.  While his brain was resting, he was also thinking about whether to go to the school library to find more detailed information.  This time, he would have to trouble Su Xiaoru again, otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to enter the library door.

    Thinking of this, Zhou Xia immediately called Su Xiaoru, hoping that she had not made arrangements for today.

    "Brother, do you want to treat me to breakfast when you call me so early?" Su Xiaoru joked with him after answering the phone.

    Zhou Xia said, "If you haven't eaten yet, I can bring it to you."

    "You are coming to school to return the books? You have finished reading them so quickly!" Su Xiaoru spoke very fast.

    Zhou Xia smiled and said, "I'm so ashamed. I was very busy yesterday and didn't have time to read it. It will take a few days to pay it back. I asked you for help today because I wanted to go to the library to check some information and identify the things in my hand.  .¡±

    Su Xiaoru immediately asked excitedly, "Brother, you have received something good! Can you bring it over so that I can take a closer look and gain experience?"

    "Okay, I was just going to ask you to help with an appraisal." Zhou Xia said.

    "Is it ancient calligraphy and painting?" Su Xiaoru asked again.

    "Yes, but it's quite special. You'll know when you see it. I'll come over later and meet you outside the library. Do you want me to bring you breakfast?" Zhou Xia replied.

    Su Xiaosu smiled and said that she wanted to, but it was not okay to bring food into the library, so she would eat it herself.

    Zhou Xia laughed at her for changing her gender today, which made her complain for a while.

    After hanging up the phone, Zhou Xia hurriedly put the remaining dumplings into her mouth, took the paintings, put her bag on her back and set off.

    When Zhou Xia arrived outside the library, Su Xiaoru was already waiting for him there.

    Su Xiaoru is wearing a white long-sleeved cotton-shirt dress today, a black hollow shawl jacket, black stockings and black leather shoes, which gives her a hint of maturity.

    "Junior sister has become more mature! Is this preparation for entering the workplace?" Zhou Xia said with a smile when they met.

    Su Xiaoru glanced at him and said, "You're not that exaggerated. I usually dress like this, okay? With my current ability, I'm afraid there's still some gap between me and wanting to work in a company!"

    Zhou Xia said, "I almost forgot if you didn't tell me. I mentioned you to Manager Liu yesterday. She asked me to arrange for everyone to have a meal together. When will you be free?"

    Zhou Xia took this matter to heart and responded so quickly, which made Su Xiaoru very happy, but also confused, "I am available at any time, senior brother, are you not fooling me, can I really join your company?"

    Zhou Xia smiled and said, "I believe in your ability, junior sister. After all, you can be regarded as Manager Liu's junior sister. You have good basic skills and are studious. Isn't that the same way I went to work in the auction company? By the way, I was afraid of wronging you.  Woolen cloth!"

    Su Xiaoru hurriedly said, "No, I'm just worried about myself. I don't have much practical experience now. It's not appropriate to go to work rashly. I don't know how many jokes will be made. Senior brother, look, can you postpone the time?  Let me follow you for a while and learn more."

    "You can make up your own mind about this." Zhou Xia understood her mood very well.

    Su Xiaoru giggled, "Then it's settled. When I have enough confidence, I will go to Senior Sister Liu for an interview. I can't embarrass Senior Brother, can I?"

    "You girl, you're so naughty." Zhou Xia said with a smile.

    Su Xiaoru immediately asked him again, "Senior brother, what good things did you receive again? Take it out and let me open my eyes."

    Zhou Xia asked, "I haven't been able to identify who painted this old painting. Can it be brought into the library?"

    Su Xiaoru volunteered, "I'll go ask and register first. It shouldn't be a problem."

    "Then please leave it to my junior sister!" Zhou Xia said.

    Su Xiaoru laughed, "Senior Brother Zhou is too polite, just call me Xiaoru."

    Zhou XiaHe said, "Look, you still call me Senior Brother Zhou, and I call you Xiaoru. Isn't it a big disadvantage?"

    Su Xiaoru said with a smile, "That's up to you. Anyway, I will call you senior brother. This must not be messed up."

    "Yes!" Lun Zhouxia was speechless. He actually didn't care about these things.

    Su Xiaoru asked Zhou Xia for a painting. She unfolded it slightly, and a strange look appeared on her face, "It turns out to be an unfinished work. Brother, you are mistaken, right?"

    Zhou Xia smiled and said, "That's why I said it's special!"

    Su Xiaoru asked him, "Isn't this kind of painting the easiest to fake? I feel that it is much simpler and easier than forging a complete painting."

    "That's the reason, so we have to identify it. Let's see if it is the original of the ancient painting or a copy. If it is an ancient painting, who is the artist? Xiaoru, I will leave this simple identification task to you.  It¡¯s done! How about this as a trial for your Chinese calligraphy and painting appraisal career?¡± Zhou Xia said to her with a smile.

    Su Xiaoru shouted repeatedly, "Brother, you are so bad! You dig holes for others to jump into. I don't want to trick people like you."

    Zhou Xia smiled and said, "How could I deceive people! Didn't you say that this kind of drawing is the easiest to imitate? It is easy to imitate, so it should be the easiest to identify, right?"

    Su Xiaoru curled her lips and said, "Brother Zhou, you are trying to test me! It is easy to fake such a painting, but it is the most difficult to identify it. Because between each artist's unfinished painting and the completed work, although the essence and details are different  They are of the same origin, but there is still a considerable gap in what is expressed on the outside. To take the most familiar example, the finishing touch. The dragon draft before the finishing touches is just like this unfinished painting. Hence the name of the famous master.  After the eyes are painted, the momentum and demeanor of the entire dragon will be completely different. It is not an exaggeration to say that there is a qualitative leap. Just identifying the final work has made it difficult for many experts and scholars who specialize in calligraphy and painting.  What's more, it's such an unfinished work. And, I guess, it hasn't been signed yet. Senior brother, it's really bad that you use such a difficult work to test a newbie like me who hasn't even started yet!"

    Zhou Xia laughed and said, "I see you are smart and can guess well, and you can tell so many truths in one breath. Doesn't this just mean that you have already stepped into the threshold of the appraiser! I am also optimistic about this.  Your development potential?¡±

    Su Xiaoru is already immune to this. She just wants to know clearly, "Senior brother, have you made a final decision about this painting?"

    Zhou Xia shook his head and said, "It was precisely because it was not identified that I came to the library to look for information and tried hard to find out."

    Su Xiaoru asked him curiously, "Then why were you thinking about buying it?"

    Zhou Xia said, "It depends on your feeling!"

    "Brother, you lied to me again and bought based on your feelings? Isn't it always taught that you should look more and buy less?" Su Xiaoru expressed doubts about this.

    "Xiao Ru, look at the performance of this paper. There are no traces of artificial aging. The spots and damage are all natural. I judge that it must be old paper. Just for this reason, there is a reason for me to take it down.  . Furthermore, although this painting is an unfinished work, the theme of the cuckoo's cry of blood has been quite clear. I was infected by the unsustainable atmosphere of sadness in the painting. In addition, that  The boss was about to close the stall, so I decided to follow my instinct and take it down."

    Zhou Xia could only do this and try to explain it with the most reasonable reasons.  He couldn't tell Su Xiaoru that I got the archaeological identification system to identify it as a precious cultural relic, so I took it.  If he really dared to do that, Su Xiaoru would probably treat him as a lunatic, not to mention the other consequences.

    "Raising an army for a thousand days and using it for a while. The feeling that senior brother said must also be based on a solid foundation!" Su Xiaoru sighed, "Senior brother, your current appraisal ability is already much higher than ours. If it were me, just appraisal  Whether this paper is old or not will take a lot of effort. My basic skills still need more practice, not to mention other aspects of identification knowledge. For example, this painting, if the senior brother can not make a quick decision and take it down, maybe it will  You will always miss it. Sure enough, to make an appraisal, you have to see how many things are in your mind. I haven't even started yet!"

    Zhou Xia felt a little ashamed when she said that. Regardless of the system, he was not necessarily any better than her in calligraphy and painting appraisal. He had to work hard to improve in this regard.  But now, he can only encourage her and say, "As long as Xiaoru keeps working hard, I believe she will do better than me."

    Su Xiaoru nodded vigorously and said firmly, "I will work harder to learn from senior brother. Senior brother, you must not hide anything."

    Zhou Xia said, ¡°I just participated in practice earlier than you, so I can feel it more deeply.¡±??Learning and growing through practice is the best.  Let's work together and learn from each other.  The appraisal of this unfinished Cuckoo's Crying Blood Picture this time is a good learning opportunity.  There will also be an autumn auction later, so everyone should cheer together.  By the way, I have obtained many auction catalogs from major auction companies from Manager Liu. I feel that I can gain a lot just by looking at the catalogs.  Xiaoru, if you have time, you can come to my place to read it, or I can send it to school for you.  "

    Su Xiaoru replied immediately without much thought, "It's better to go to the senior brother's place to see. I also want to discuss it with the senior brother. I can't tell much about it on my own."
