Chapter 697: It's Really Sold

Of course, it's not just those insiders who see the power of this work.

In fact, for some painting and calligraphy lovers, they also saw that this painting was good.

"Brothers, don't spray yet, this painting is really extraordinary. ”

"I thought everyone had no vision, indeed, Mo Bai's painting is really extraordinary. ”

"I am a lover of painting and calligraphy, of course, I am also a collector of calligraphy and painting, I don't know how many paintings I have collected, it can be said that this one is an ordinary cabbage in everyone's eyes, and it is already the best in my collection. ”

"Yes, although the painting is only a cabbage, its technique and its meaning are quite high. ”

"Have you noticed that it is very Qi Baishi's style? ”

"I have long found out, it is too similar to Mr. Qi Baishi's style. ”

"I can't say it's like, it's exactly the same. ”

Many people who know about paintings have begun to evaluate on Weibo.

However, having said that, for ordinary people, they still have some incomprehension.

"Hey, what are you talking about, this painting is really that good?"

"Of course. ”

"Isn't it just a cabbage? ”

"The artwork is like this, Zhang Daqian painted a landscape painting, and it also sold for 1.5 billion. ”

"Then you mean that this cabbage can be compared with Zhang Daqian's landscape paintings?"

"In terms of appearance, this work is certainly not as good as the landscape painting that Zhang Daqian auctioned not long ago. After all, this loses in momentum. However, in terms of art and construction methods, this cabbage may not be lost to Zhang Daqian. ”

"Holy shit, is it that good?"

"If I had 50 million, I would definitely buy it and wait for it to appreciate. ”

I don't know the awesomeness of this work.

As soon as these calligraphy and painting lovers came out, in an instant, the cabbage painted by Mo Bai became the focus of the public.

"Big news, big news, some researchers say that the cabbage painted by Mo Bai is really worth 50 million. ”

"No, isn't it just an ordinary Chinese cabbage?"

"I also think, but those few are big Vs in the calligraphy and painting industry, and they have a lot of calligraphy and paintings, so their words should be true. ”

"But, why can't I see anything awesome about this cabbage?"

"Me too, it feels like they're bragging. ”

Calligraphy and painting works are like this.

For those who don't understand, in their eyes, this work may be worthless.

As a story goes, when Qi Baishi went to buy cabbage, he saw that the old man who sold cabbage was very hard selling cabbage. Qi Baishi said, how about I exchange a painting I painted for your cart of cabbage. The cabbage seller scolded Qi Baishi on the spot, saying, I want to exchange a cart of Chinese cabbage for a painting, if it weren't for your age, I would have slapped you to death earlier.

This can be seen from this. If you really understand, let alone a cart of Chinese cabbage, even if it is ten, hundred, or thousands of cabbage, they will rush to exchange with Qi Baishi.

However, for some people who think that these calligraphy and painting lovers are bragging, those calligraphy and painting collectors are not convinced.

Immediately, he posted another Weibo message: "Some people say we brag, I don't know why someone would say this about me." One, I don't know Mo Bai, so I don't need to praise Mo Bai. Besides, blowing it on him won't give me a dime. Second, since some people say that I brag, then I will comment on this work to everyone a little, so that everyone can see if I am bragging. ”

Although it is difficult to explain such a thing as art, there is still his evaluation system in the end.

Otherwise, there are so many Chinese painters, how can they distinguish which painters are of high or low level.

[Qi Baishi has a famous painting saying about modeling - "The beauty of painting lies between the similar and the unlike, too similar to kitsch, not like to deceive?", which is not only Qi Baishi's concept of modeling, but also Qi Baishi's desire to communicate the aesthetic interest of the secular and literati in the entire artistic style. It is neither kitsch nor mad about the middle of the world. The humor of "between the similar and the dissimilar" is created at two extremes, and in the end, it refuses to stick to the scale of modeling and the aesthetic middle point chosen by any extreme artist...... Why Mo Bai's Chinese cabbage is said to have an incomparably high artistic value is incomparably in line with what Mr. Qi Baishi said between the plausible and the unlike. It looks like a Chinese cabbage, but if you look closely, it doesn't look like a Chinese cabbage...... This kind of similar and dissimilar modeling characteristics has not been stumped by many painters for thousands of years. 】

Classic paintings do need to be appreciated.

And this kind of appreciative cell, if no one is directed, is difficult to understand.

If everyone still felt that Mo Bai's Chinese cabbage was an ordinary Chinese cabbage before, at most it was better than ordinary people's paintings, but it was absolutely impossible to sell it for 50 million. However, under the comments of this calligraphy and painting collector, when the visitors looked at Mo Bai's work again, they became more or less understandable.

"Damn, listen to that guy, and then look at Mo Bai's work, I really think this work is good. ”

"Me too, I didn't know what art was, but these four words are really hanging. ”

"I seem to remember that Mo Bai showed his calligraphy and painting skills when he was in the food competition. ”

"Is there a food contest, that's a stir-fry show, what does it have to do with calligraphy and painting?"

Originally, it didn't matter, but when Mo Bai was frying a piece of tofu, he carved a picture of nine dragons on a piece of tofu. ”

"Damn, it's really fake. ”

"Of course it's true, I don't believe you went and searched for that video, and it's still there. ”

This search really found a video of Mo Bai participating in the food competition many years ago.

"Damn, I didn't expect Mo Bai to be a chef. ”

"I really carved a picture of the Nine Dragons on a piece of tofu, which was an eye-opener, really eye-opening. ”

“6666…… Well, I feel that the level of Dabai calligraphy and painting is very awesome now. ”

Only, though.

Although these calligraphy and painting researchers came forward to evaluate Mo Bai's paintings, there are still some unacceptable ones for the general public.

"No matter how awesome the above is, I don't think this painting is worth 50 million anyway. ”

"I don't think it's worth 5 million at most. ”

"5 million is too expensive, if I want to see it, it should only be sold for 500,000. ”

"Well, 500,000 is about the same price. After all, although some paintings are sold for hundreds of millions and billions at every turn, these are all works that have been collected for decades, and all the works have appreciated in value after the painter died. Mo Bai's cabbage has just been newly made, and it is difficult to say what level of artistic value it can reach. The other one, Mo Bai is not dead yet. If everyone still likes Mo Bai's paintings after he dies, it's almost the same if he talks about 50 million. ”

I have to say that these ordinary spectators have a point.

The most embarrassing thing in the art world of calligraphy and painting is that don't look at the high status of those calligraphers and painters, but that is only after they die.

In fact, I don't know how many calligraphers and painters lived miserably during their lifetimes, and were even despised by others.

What kind of realm Mo Bai's works have reached, they are not easy to say for the time being.

But there is one fact, that is, Mo Bai is still alive, he is not hanging yet.

Since it hasn't hung yet, then this work can't sell for too much price.

At most, selling for hundreds of thousands of 11 million is already a sky-high price.

I want to sell for 50 million, I'm sorry, I'll come back after you die.

It's just that just when everyone thought that this work would not sell at all. Mo Bai's cabbage hanging on a certain treasure was really sold.
