Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Excellent customers like Xu Zhendong are not uncommon, but every time he meets such a person, he doesn't know how to say good things to him.  If you tell him the truth bluntly and say that this is something that can't be more false, not only will he not listen, but he will also speak harshly like you did to Zhou Xia just now.

    Zhou Xia is okay, it can be said that he is young and lacks knowledge and cannot recognize him, but for a master like Xu Zhendong, Huang Guodong will definitely call him a brick master, old and immortal, or something like that.

    Xu Zhendong is a restless person, he comes to the company whenever he has nothing to do, and everyone is quite impressed with him.

    Zhou Xia stood up and said to him with a smile, "I feel really bad for taking away Master Xu's business today."

    Xu Zhendong laughed and said, "I wish you could handle customers like this just now. Because I really don't know how to communicate with them. It feels like people living in two worlds."

    Customers like Huang Guodong come to our door directly without making an appointment or seeing photos first.  Zhou Xia estimated that he was from Donghai.

    If he has to go through the preliminary selection, he will not be allowed to send such a collection to the company at all. If he is an outsider, he will have to waste time and travel expenses.

    There are a lot of uninvited customers, and the auction company usually won¡¯t turn them away, so it can be considered a free appraisal.

    "By the way! Xu Yaohui gave me a piece of Zhu Zhishan's cursive calligraphy yesterday. You and he chose it together, right?" Xu Zhendong recognized this first and called his son Xu Yaohui by his name. "With his appreciation,  With the ability of French works, it is really not easy to buy such good things.~~

    Zhou Xia humbly replied, "Uncle Xu is much better than me in this regard. I just followed and gained experience. I didn't practice calligraphy properly when I was a child. The appraisal of calligraphy works is completely unreliable."  I just rely on feeling. I don¡¯t even know many of the words in Zhu Zhishan¡¯s cursive script!¡±

    Xu Zhendong said, "Zhou Xia, you don't need to belittle yourself. Calligraphy works are like this, just write more and read more. I have studied that cursive calligraphy carefully, and it is undoubtedly the original work of Zhu Zhishan. I like it very much. It is rare for Xu Yaohui to be like this."  I must have spent a lot of money to buy this painting!"

    Zhou Xia asked, "Didn't Uncle Xu tell you?"

    "He just knows how to change the subject randomly and refuses to tell me the truth. Zhou Xia, tell me how much you spent. Don't fool me with the story about picking up leaks that you agreed on!" Xu Zhendong stared at me.  He said that he understood that Xu Yaohui might be embarrassed to say it in person, but for Zhou Xia, this should not be a problem.

    Zhou Xia knew that he would definitely not be able to escape, so he thought carefully and said, "I guess he may be worried that you, Master Xu, won't accept it, so he didn't tell me the price. In fact, is there anything that can't be said?"  , they are all a family. I was also present at the time, and Uncle Xu¡¯s two paintings cost a total of 980,000 yuan, and the one by Zhu Zhishan cost 800,000 yuan.¡±

    "This price is quite fair!" Xu Zhendong is also an old expert. He does appraisals for people every day, and valuation is also necessary.  He also has a good understanding of market conditions.

    "I also feel that in the hands of those experts, it is too difficult to pick up the missing pieces." Zhou Xia said it was difficult, but it was not impossible. He picked up a pair of Pan Tianshou's "Lanshi" from the hands of Lao Wang.  picture".

    Xu Zhendong said, "I don't dare to count on picking up leaks. I'm so grateful that Xu Yaohui can buy me the genuine article. Now, in the hands of these experts, there are not only many modern high imitations, but also a considerable number of old imitations."  When I rushed in to purchase goods, I never came across such old imitations, especially imitations from around the same era as the originals.¡±

    Zhou Xia laughed and said, "Master Xu can know the world without going out. It is true. We have seen several works, whether they are paper, ink or seals, they are all very up to date, but I feel that the painting and calligraphy are a bit  I couldn¡¯t stand up to the original author, so in the end I didn¡¯t dare to buy it.¡±

    "It's a good thing to be careful when making a move. The price of this kind of work is no lower than that of porcelain. If you're not careful, there is a risk of taking medicine, especially when you have just entered the industry and you still don't know the depth of the water." Xu  Zhendong gave a serious lecture to Zhou Xia.

    Zhou Xia nodded in agreement, and he also knew the risks involved.  For the same amount of money, he might be more willing to invest in porcelain.

    There were no customers to send anything at this time, so Xu Zhendong chatted with Zhou Xia and exchanged some experiences. Of course, Zhou Xia asked Xu Zhendong more for advice.  They didn't need to worry about the preparations for the autumn auction, so they were happy and at ease.

    After a while, Yu Xiaoyu led another customer for appraisal. This customer was holding a medium-sized brocade box in his hand.

    When Zhou Xia saw the size of his brocade box, he couldn't help but start to estimate it.The surface should be a piece of porcelain, and judging from the shape of the box, it should be something like a bowl or plate.

    It doesn't matter that he is in a daze, but Yu Xiaoyu is a little embarrassed.

    Zhou Xia and Xu Zhendong are both here. Between these two senior appraisers, who should do the appraisal?

    But Xiaoyu also had a way to deal with it. She introduced the two senior appraisers to the new guest named Wang Ming and let them go away the headache.

    Wang Ming was in his forties. He carefully put down the brocade box, and then shook hands with the two senior appraisers with great enthusiasm. He said that it was a pleasure to meet him. With two experts, he would be more confident in the appraisal.  Rhetoric.

    Then he asked them to help him sit down for the appraisal. Before Xu Zhendong could speak, Zhou Xia asked him to do the appraisal first.

    Xu Zhendong was not polite to him and asked Wang Ming to take out the things first.

    Wang Ming carefully took out the contents inside again. When Zhou Xia saw this thing, he immediately said, "Yo! Not bad, oil drop cup!"

    Wang Mingpei smiled and said, "Yes, the oil drop lamp from the Song Dynasty!"

    Zhou Xia was fine and asked him, "Mr. Wang, have you ever seen an authentic oil drop lamp from the Song Dynasty before?"

    Wang Ming was stunned, not knowing what Zhou Xia meant by asking this.  Over there, Xu Zhendong has already started doing appraisals.

    Although he didn¡¯t know why, Wang Ming still replied to Zhou Xia, ¡°Before I met this oil-dropping lamp, I had never seen a genuine oil-dropping lamp.¡±

    After Zhou Xia asked about this, she also had some clues in her heart. From Zhou Xia's point of view.

    ¡°If you don¡¯t know the truth, how can you know the truth?¡±

    If there are not many genuine products, if you want to buy genuine products, the chance is relatively low.

    Zhou Xia will be fine now and continue to ask him where he got this thing.

    Wang Ming also understands that this is a necessary process, and the auction company is also afraid of receiving stolen goods.  Moreover, in the antique industry, it is necessary to make it clear about the origin.  Immediately, he replied, "This was when I went to Henan on a business trip. What I received from the folks there was passed down from their family. I also had a hard time and spent a lot of money to buy it. If it weren't for  Because my son is getting married and I want to buy a house, I don¡¯t want to sell such a good thing. It¡¯s best to keep it for myself.¡±

    After listening to his words, Zhou Xia couldn't help but sympathize with him in her eyes.

    Then, he asked Wang Ming in detail about some common knowledge about oil-drop lamps. Zhou Xia himself also had considerable research on oil-drop lamps. After all, he made a living by appraising porcelain.

    Such oil droplets are formed in a shape similar to oil droplets after the unmelted part of ferrous oxide drips down during the high-temperature firing process at 1100 degrees.

    Wang Ming also has some knowledge of the oil drop cup, but his knowledge is only limited to the surface.

    Zhou Xia guessed that he might have acquired this knowledge after he bought it.

    This is very similar to the experience of most collectors. Rather than learning, it is more like finding reasons for the authenticity of the collections you buy.  Because subjectively, I have regarded this thing as genuine, so the reasons and evidence found are actually not very reliable.  Everything looked real, and some inconsistent evidence was obviously ignored by them.

    As the two of them talked, Xu Zhendong had already made an appraisal.

    His appraisal speed was quite fast, but because Wang Ming and Zhou Xia were chatting enthusiastically, he didn't pay much attention to this end.

    "Zhou Xia, how about you?" Xu Zhendong said to him.

    "That's fine!" Zhou Xia felt that it was still necessary to take a look.

    Wang Ming couldn't help but asked, "Master Xu, how is my treasure? Is it genuine?" Xu Zhendong replied, "It's still acceptable!"

    ¡°His words like this have actually revealed the truth.  Xu Zhendong didn't have to worry. It was really not difficult for Zhou Xia to identify such things.  It would be ridiculous if he could even poke holes in such porcelain.

    After hearing this, Wang Ming couldn't help but feel a little worried, and asked him for more specific appraisal opinions.

    Xu Zhendong said, "We'll wait until Zhou Xia completes the appraisal. By the way, do you think this thing of yours is an oil-drop lamp from the Song Dynasty? Do you think it came from that kiln entrance?"

    Wang Ming hurriedly replied, "I think it's an oil drop lamp from Cizhou kiln. Look, the oil droplets are so beautiful, just like the stars in the sky. Moreover, the oil droplets are relatively uniform, and the texture may be a little loose, but this  It¡¯s exactly the typical Cizhou kiln style.¡±

    Xu Zhendong smiled and said, "It seems that you know a lot about Cizhou kiln."

    &nbsp"Wang Ming modestly said that you need to learn more from experts."

    Here, Zhou Xia carefully handles this oil drop cup.

    In fact, Zhou Xia identified the authenticity of the porcelain at the first sight.  Zhou Xia is like this, and Xu Zhendong is not like this.

    Although the oil droplets in this oil drop cup are quite beautiful, this kind of effect can be achieved by any oil drop cup.

    If you look carefully, you can clearly see that the oil droplets on this oil drop cup are actually quite unnatural.  Moreover, although this piece of porcelain is not as bright and shiny as new things, the things on it have obvious signs of wear and tear.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Foot-scaping is a complete mess, not to mention the pedicure.

    Because this kind of black glaze oil-drop cup has no glaze on the bottom part, you can clearly see the quality of the fetus inside.  For experts who often identify porcelain, such things are definitely fake at first glance.

    Zhou Xia glanced at it casually and had no intention of wasting time on it. Just like the so-called Yongle blue and white porcelain water bottle, he didn't need to ask the system to come out for appraisal.  Zhou Xia wasn't even sure if there was a limit to the number of times this appraisal could be performed. It would be better to use it sparingly if it looked fake at first glance.  It also avoids the formation of system dependence.

    Seeing that Zhou Xia had finished the appraisal, Wang Ming hurried over and asked what his opinion was.

    Zhou Xia doesn¡¯t mind being a bad person, but at this time, it¡¯s better to remind him tactfully. If he can¡¯t bear it, in the end, it will be Zhou Xia himself who suffers.

    "I think this thing is more reliable and the oil droplets are more beautiful. Mr. Wang can take it home and use it to drink tea. It is quite good." Zhou Xia replied.

    Wang Ming immediately became anxious, "I want to send it to the auction. My son is still waiting to use the money to buy a house!"

    Zhou Xia said, "Our company's collection of auction items for the autumn auction has ended. For the spring auction, it will have to wait until April or May next year. For the spring auction, it is estimated that it will take June or July to receive payment. Mr. Wang, you are anxious.  When it comes to money, it¡¯s better to find another way.¡±

    Wang Ming said, "That's okay. Anyway, it will take some time before my son gets married. I can still afford to wait for this little time."

    Zhou Xia was at a loss. He and Xu Zhendong looked at each other and found that his expression was also very helpless. Even after saying this, Wang Ming still didn't understand!

    Zhou Xia immediately decided that it would be better to make it clear to him.

    He then said, "Mr. Wang, I think so! If you want to buy a house, you'd better find another way to raise funds."

    Wang Ming then came to his senses, and they identified it and concluded that it was a fake.

    He became even more anxious when he came, "What do you mean, could it be that my oil-drop cup is a fake?"

    Zhou Xia nodded, but tried her best to comfort him and said, "It's actually quite beautiful. It's quite nice to have at home."

    Wang Ming turned to Xu Zhendong and asked, "Master Xu, didn't you just say that this thing is passable? Why, you are from the same company, but the appraisal results are different!"

    Xu Zhendong explained to him, "I just said that I can see it, which means that this thing does look very similar. The level of imitation is not bad, but after all, imitations are imitations and cannot be regarded as real."  .¡±

    Chinese people speak profoundly and profoundly, especially in the antiques industry. Although Wang Ming has been in this industry for some time, it is still difficult to fully understand what these appraisers mean.

    "Then tell me, why is this thing bad? I think this oil drop cup is very beautiful, and the oil drops are also quite beautiful." Wang Ming didn't want to give up, he also  Want to find out clearly.

    Zhou Xia said to him, "I asked Mr. Wang before, if you have ever seen a genuine oil drop lamp before, and Mr. Wang said no."

    Wang Ming nodded, but was confused, "I've never seen it before, but what does this have to do with whether this thing is true or false?" (To be continued,
