Chapter 557: Hu Tielun and His People (5/62)

Everyone went to the banquet hall next door, found a quieter table and sat down. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info a moment later, Lu Xiuqi's grandfather and grandson also walked over with a smile.

"Don't you mind if we sit together?" Lu Xiuqi asked politely.

Of course, everyone wouldn't mind, and politely beckoned Lu Xiuqi to take a seat.

Meng Zitao helped Lu Xiuqi pour tea, picked up his teacup, and thanked him with a smile: "Old Lu, thank you for your generosity today, I will toast you with tea instead of wine." ”

Lu Xiuqi laughed, drank it all, and then said: "Don't thank me, to be honest, I want to thank you for giving me the opportunity to get a painting of calligraphy." ”

"Where, where ......"

Everyone was polite to each other, and Lu Xiuqi asked with curiosity: "Xiao Meng, ask a question that I don't know whether to ask, what kind of family does your calligraphy master inherit? ”

Meng Zitao said with some embarrassment: "Actually, I figured it out myself. ”

"Ah!" Lu Xiuqi's grandson and Bian Mo both showed shocked looks, wondering if Meng Zitao was joking.

Shu Ze helped and explained with a smile: "Zitao didn't lie to you, except for his calligraphy when he was a child, he relied on his own calligraphy after that. We were all surprised at first, but this guy is a freak and can't be judged by normal thinking. ”

Lu Xiuqi knew that this kind of thing should not be fake, and some geniuses in this world were indeed difficult to look at from the eyes of ordinary people, so he couldn't help but sigh: "I'm a little jealous of Zheng Lao's luck now." ”

Lu Dongchen looked at Meng Zitao with envy: "Genius, genius, natural talent, I now know the gap between geniuses and ordinary people." ”

Meng Zitao smiled and said: "In fact, everyone has their own fate, even if they have talent, but they only know how to squander and don't know how to work hard, sooner or later they will be wiped out by everyone, on the contrary, the stupid bird flies first, and it is possible to be the first to reach the other side." ”

"Well said. Lu Xiuqi applauded and looked at his grandson and said: "You still have to learn from Xiao Mengduo, if you don't change your indecisive temperament, your achievements in this life are limited." ”

Lu Dongchen sincerely accepted it, he also knew that there was something wrong with his character, but he always felt that he couldn't find the direction, and now it seems that Meng Zitao is his guiding light.

The waiter served the food one after another, and everyone chatted for a while before eating, because the afternoon was not over, everyone did not ask for wine, and even if someone came to toast, it was only to the end.

Meng Zitao asked, "Old Lu, why didn't you go to appreciate that secret color porcelain just now?"

Lu Xiuqi mainly studies porcelain, and he must be very concerned about secret color porcelain, and with his identity, he will at least be arranged in front, and now it seems that Lu Xiuqi has come over without even looking at it, so Meng Zitao asked such a question.

Lu Xiuqi said with a smile: "Xiao Hu has already brought things to me before. ”

Hearing this, Shu Ze was very curious about the result, and hurriedly asked, "What is the result?"

Lu Xiuqi smiled slightly: "The result, it's better for you to see it yourself and then make a conclusion." ”

Shu Ze was a little embarrassed, knowing that he was in a hurry to ask, and he was a little taboo, but since Lu Xiuqi answered like this, there must be something wrong with Hu Tielun's secret color porcelain.

And that's exactly the case, people who have seen the secret color porcelain, immediately divided into two factions, one faction said that the thing is genuine, the other faction said that the thing should be a high imitation, anyway, the public said that the public is reasonable, the mother said that the mother is reasonable, and no one can convince anyone.

In contrast, Tian Mengmeng was more curious about Hu Tielun and asked: "Who is this Hu Tielun, who dares to say that he is the porcelain king of the capital." ”

Zhong Jinxian explained with a smile: "Let me tell you this, there are two kinds of businessmen in the antique industry, one likes to stand in the background when doing things, and does even the biggest business silently. The other is to like to stand in the front desk, want to become a star in the industry, what you buy, what you sell, you can't wait to make a fuss, everyone knows, it is best to be in the newspaper on TV. ”

"Generally speaking, the former are mostly the kind of businessmen with strong strength and background, and they often don't do business in public, such as your Uncle Wang. The latter is because his wealth has swelled rapidly, and there is nothing else to say, so he made public some auction records, which can be regarded as showing that there is no problem with the origin of his wealth, and Hu Tielun is this kind of person. ”

Tian Mengmeng pouted: "It's not a big deal, how can he have the face to say what kind of porcelain king he is in the capital?"

Shu Ze took over and said: "Although Hu Tielun's self-proclaimed title is also exaggerated, but his business is indeed very large, you can ask your Uncle Wang, he will tell you that Hu Tielun has sold at least tens of thousands of pieces of porcelain, and there is no way to know how many are in private, maybe it is possible to double it." ”

"How can there be so many?" Tian Mengmeng was a little dumbfounded.

Zhong Jinxian said with a smile: "It's nothing impossible, porcelain is also good and bad, if it is an ordinary variety of folk kilns, I can also collect so much." Of course, since Hu Tielun dares to say this, it is definitely impossible for all of them to be ordinary folk kilns, otherwise he would not be able to boast of such Haikou, and his status in the domestic collection circle is indeed quite high. ”

Shu Ze shook his head: "I don't like this guy very much, I always feel a little unscrupulous in doing things, and he has a lot of criticism." ”

It is impossible for a person to satisfy everyone in the world, but perhaps Hu Tielun is too high-profile, or his work is indeed a little rough, and Shu Ze is not the only one who criticizes him, but there are many people.

Some people say that he hides real and sells fakes, most of his collection is genuine, and most of what he sells is high imitations. Some people also said that his things came from the wrong way, some of them were genuine things bought from tomb robbers, and some of them were high-quality imitations secretly produced by masters who he had entrusted to them.

There are also people who have a nose and an eye to disclose that he will try to take the real things he bought from the tomb robbers and Gao Fangxian to foreign countries and get an invoice to make a game. After two years, he returned to China with customs declaration and was marked with fire paint "export to domestic sales". In this way, fake items are dressed up as "export porcelain" and are popular with buyers, while real things bought from tomb robbers also evade accountability under the Cultural Relics Protection Law.

Bian Mo listened to Shu Ze's words and said with a smile: "To say something that may not be appropriate, although I don't know much about the antique industry, I also know that there are basically not many people in this industry who can pat their chests to ensure their innocence." People like Hu Tielun, who at least tell the truth on the surface, can at least do business together. ”

Tian Mengmeng was a little unconvinced by Bian Mo's words, and felt that what Bian Mo said was too absolute, so she looked at Ren Kexin and Meng Zitao, wanting to hear their rebuttals.

Meng Zitao smiled euphemistically, although he tried his best to keep himself "clean", but the status quo of the industry in which he is located is like this, he can only be with the light, he can only say that he can try not to touch it, but if he encounters a good object unearthed, he will definitely accept it.

To put it for some righteous and awe-inspiring reasons, if he doesn't accept it, who knows where the things will go, and if he crosses the ocean, he will undoubtedly have to pay a greater price if he wants to "import" them back in the future.

Tian Mengmeng found the signal given by Meng Zitao, and was a little disappointed, Ren Kexin said to her: "There is a way that there are eggs under the nest, and there is no way to do some things, and this industry is also a little special, maybe it may be standardized in the future, but now it can't be judged by common sense." ”

Tian Mengmeng immediately changed her smile when she heard this: "Sister Xin, you don't have to enlighten me so much, I am not an old master, I will be so pedantic." ”

"Hehe, if only you could understand. ”

With everyone's introduction to Hu Tielun, Meng Zitao became more and more interested in him. To say that this person is really capable, when he was in junior high school, his parents died of illness one after another, and there were only three people left in the family, he and his younger siblings were left, so he also went to ask for food.

After that, he met a fellow villager who was reselling antiques, helped the man solicit customers in the antique market, and after making some money, he started another stove and tinkered. He can endure hardships, is diligent and studious, and with a little luck, he has such a big situation now, which has to be admired. (To be continued.) )
