What is Zhang Nan looking for in Hunan and Jiangxi provinces?

It is commonly known as "red official kiln" and "Mao porcelain" -- the so-called "Mao porcelain", in a narrow sense, it was the old 50s to 70s, specially customized and carefully made porcelain for the chairman, and its technological value and artistic value have reached the peak of Chinese porcelain-making technology!

Later, many people thought that Mao porcelain was only made in Jingdezhen, which was the famous "7501 Project", in fact, the Liling Ceramics Research Institute of Xiangnan Province had also developed and manufactured many batches of Mao porcelain, and the number was quite a lot.

Zhang Nan also knows that in Liling Mao porcelain, there is a feature that distinguishes it from other porcelain: except for the soup spoon, all the tableware is covered with a lid, which is said to be because the chairman is busy with work and eats irregularly, and the lid can keep warm and hygienic.

In the year when firing porcelain porcelain, the porcelain clay raw material used in Liling is the large ball mud of Hongjiang in southern Hunan, there are only two similar mines in the world, one is in the United Kingdom, which has been exhausted during World War II; in 1958, another place was found in southern Hunan, and it has also been extinct at the end of the 70s of the last century, and Liling porcelain has become a masterpiece since then!

Whether it is Liling or Jingdezhen "Mao porcelain", it is the collective wisdom of the top ceramic masters in modern China, the crystallization of unprecedented - the design and production of "Mao porcelain", which concentrates the best ceramic talents in China at that time, and is the pinnacle of the painstaking efforts of ceramic masters!

It is also the crystallization of the high degree of cooperation and collective wisdom of the ceramic masters: everyone has their own talents, and the wisdom of many masters is concentrated on a type of porcelain, which is absolutely unprecedented!

After "Mao porcelain", there is no such top-level porcelain reproduction in China - not only the reason for the porcelain makers, but also an important reason: not only in southern Hunan, but also in Jiangxi Province, the top porcelain-making raw materials have been completely exhausted!

Zhang Nan is planning to come to a pot end, taking advantage of the fact that there are not many people who have noticed these batches of top Chinese porcelain now, and directly use foreign exchange gold dollar tactics to win it!

In fact, he is not the first one to start, and there is already a collector in China who has been collecting since last year. However, that one was purchased from the staff of the Pottery Research Institute, and the financial strength was average, Zhang Nan had a relationship, and planned to "swallow the whale"!

No matter how much it costs, I'll have to swallow it this time!

I remember that there seems to be one or two thousand pieces in Jingdezhen, and those people in the Jingdezhen Ceramics Research Institute will not know where their price bottom line is.

Just like Nong Bosheng said: A few dozen dollars a piece will be cleared, so let people clear it.

When a batch is completed, you can take as much as you can collect a small amount of other small amounts, and finally throw out several times or dozens of times the price, depending on whether those people sell it or not!

After my own village, there is no such store, in the 80s, I can produce such a "crazy" price, it is estimated that in addition to myself, I can't find a second person in the whole of China!

The southern Hunan side also had to do it at the same time: Chairman Liling burned about 20,000 pieces of porcelain, and only about 1,500 of the finest pieces were sent, and most of the rest were smashed and destroyed in public, and it seems that less than 200 pieces ended up in the people.

As for the small amount that has been dispersed, it doesn't matter: if it were all in their own hands, who would know the uniqueness of those batches of leader porcelain in the future?

I like gold, porcelain and coins the most, but that kind of treasure is only owned by himself, and the situation that outsiders don't recognize at all is not the realm that Zhang Nan pursues.

Just like the thousands of Buddha statues he dug up from Wutai, now he is entertaining himself at all, and he is reluctant to let one out, in fact, this is also a kind of depression.

......

Dinner is the top building, but there is still an hour, and it is not yet time to get off work.

The staff of the exhibition hall basically left work early: they were all discouraged and went home to change their clothes. Nong Bosheng saw that it was still early, so he invited Zhang Nan to his house for a meeting.

is also a relative, and the distance is also close, Zhang Nan did not refuse.

"Shamili, at 5:10, you drive the car to the front alley and wait for us. Also, don't forget to go to the hotel and put the contents of the room in the trunk. ”

Two sentences were explained.

"I asked my brother-in-law to bring some small things from the factory in Yanxian County, and this trip should be to thank the comrades in the exhibition hall for their help. Also, Director Nong, please send a copy to the experts in the laboratory when the time comes. ”

I didn't call those experts from all over the country for this meal, so it was not appropriate to start from the beginning.

"What's that?"

"Just silk and wool scarves, company exports, and some ties"

Nong Bosheng was originally worried that things would be too expensive and he would make mistakes, but when he heard that they were all useful daily gadgets, he was relieved.

Out of the gate of the exhibition hall, turn around and walk for a while, enter a small alley, and turn another corner to the courtyard where Nong Bosheng's house is located.

Looking at the house is like a world away: "I came here a few decades ago" myself, as if I had taken a picture in front of the flower bed in the yard, using a German Leica camera that Nong Bosheng bought from the thrift market when he was a student in the Soviet Union.

My cousin is the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department of the largest hospital in Yongcheng, and her two daughters are the eldest in the freshly built Yongcheng as a freshman, and the younger one will go to a key high school, and they haven't gone home yet.

There is hot water at home and ready to make tea.

Zhang Nan and two bodyguards sat down in the living room, and took a few more glances at the unfamiliar and familiar environment: not only is the living room surrounded by bookcases, Zhang Nan knows that in addition to the kitchen and bathroom, there are bookshelves everywhere in Nongbosheng's house!

However, instead of using the "Serve the People" teacup on the tray on the living room table, he walked into the room and took out a large box and put it on the living room table.

Open it and take out four teacups from the inside.

"Judging by your next actions, I guess this is the last time I'll drink tea with this set of teacups. ”

There are 8 teacups neatly placed in the box, with lids, and these cups are the same as the "Serve the People" teacups, not the kind that drink gaiwan tea, but they are all equipped with teacup holders.

"Water dots peach blossoms!" Zhang Nan couldn't help but say this!

hurriedly excused himself and said, "Curator Nong, don't mind, I am terrible that this thing is used to make tea." ”

I was still talking about Mao porcelain just now, but I didn't expect to see it, or the "water point peach blossom" of the authentic 7501 project, which is still ready to be used to make tea!

Nong Bosheng ignored it, took it to the kitchen to clean it, and came back to brew a cup of tea for each person.

"At the beginning of 83, I went to Jingdezhen to participate in a ceramic sculpture seminar, and the director of the Ceramic Research Institute over there gave it to Director Wang, and they used it as a Spring Festival benefit for employees in 82. ”

"Everybody?"

"The people who attended the seminar? They weren't that generous, and I made two sketches of export porcelain sculptures for the institute, and the others were refined teacups. As he spoke, he motioned for everyone to drink tea, causing Alyosha to be cautious when he took a teacup. (To be continued.) )
