Chapter 1012: The Sword
"Okay, I'll wait for you outside. Zhang Tianyuan is giving Deng Chao face, after all, he has cooperated before, and he is a friend, if he changes someone else, he will not wait at all, he will just turn around and leave.
After about five or six minutes, Zhang Tianyuan saw Deng Chao walk out, followed by a man wearing sunglasses, this man was about fifty or sixty years old, and judging by his appearance, he should be Asian.
However, it is no surprise that many Asians have become American citizens now.
"Is this the Teacher Zhang you are talking about?" Ruijin Richard glanced at Zhang Tianyuan and looked very dissatisfied, "Is he twenty years old?"
Obviously, the great director felt that Zhang Tianyuan was too young and looked down on Zhang Tianyuan a little, so he was also a little dissatisfied with Deng Chao.
"Deng Chao, this old man is the director you said? I see that there are seventy or eighty, they are all old and confused, he was deceived, that is normal. "Zhang Tianyuan doesn't want to offend people lightly, but if someone has to provoke him, then he won't be forgiving.
"Haha, okay little guy, sharp teeth, you can understand English?"
"I don't understand, but you speak Chinese quite well." "Zhang Tianyuan naturally understands English, and he is very good, but he is now in contact with this old thing.
"Mr. Zhang, Director Richard, don't stand here, please go inside, the scene inside has been filmed, you need to rest for more than an hour, go in and have a cup of tea and talk slowly." Deng Chao saw that the atmosphere was a little stiff, so he quickly became a mediator.
Ruijin Richard thought to himself, he had just heard this Deng Chao say that this young man was a powerful man. It's better to listen to his opinion first, and treat him politely if he does. If not, you don't need him.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Teacher Zhang." Please come in, take a cup of tea inside, and take a break?"
The so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, since the other party has invited him so, Zhang Tianyuan is not good at keeping a straight face and not giving face to others, so he also nodded and walked in.
As you can see, there is a plaque hanging outside the door of this store. This plaque is newly written, but the method of doing it old makes the plaque look more like an antique, which is also for the sake of the shooting effect, and it seems that this crew is not useless, and it is quite good in this detail.
The words on the plaque are very sharp, but it should not be written by a person, but directly made by the computer, although each stroke feels very sharp, like a blade. But the things that come out of the computer always feel a little dull, and he couldn't help but shake his head, just wanting to praise the crew. How did this happen again, it seems that this crew doesn't even have the money to hire a professional to guide you?
Poor like this?
There are a lot of things in the shop, and there are bronzes. There are ancient swords, but swords are clearly in the majority. Not only swords, but also eighteen ancient weapons seem to be complete. Most of these things are imitations, and they have been made old, and it is estimated that they are also for the shooting effect, but the crew's ability ends here, and the rest really has to be done not in place.
But commercial movies, anyway, most of the people I watch are ordinary people, so it's understandable.
Zhang Tianyuan noticed that in addition to those shoddy imitations, there were some real swords that looked unsightly, but they were very sharp, but there should be no ancient swords, he had seen them with a word appreciation trick, most of them were just swords in the Republic of China period, no matter how far away, even the late Qing Dynasty did not.
But it's hard to say that these swords don't have their own stories, after all, there were many wars during the Republic of China, and these swords don't know how many people's blood they drank on the battlefield.
"Teacher Zhang is interested in the props here?" Ruijin Richard couldn't help but ask when he saw Zhang Tianyuan looking at those things as soon as he entered the door.
"Just take a look. Zhang Tianyuan said lightly, there should be no things in it that he was interested in, so he just took a casual look at it, and then sat on the chair, the tea is good tea, very fragrant, and it attracts him more than those swords.
Although he likes to collect, but not all the garbage, can make him fancy something, it must be very valuable, this value may not be money, it can also be something else, but there must be characteristics, like these imitation things, he is not interested in the service at all.
"If Mr. Zhang likes it, you can pick a few pieces and take them away, we are just props, or a few dollars, it's a big deal to reconfigure. "Ruijin Richard is very generous, but think about it, the things here, it is estimated that a piece is at most a thousand yuan, and the things in the entire store will not exceed 100,000, so it is not much money for a crew, this Ruijin Richard is a big director, and he will not lack this money, if he says that this thing can be given to Zhang Tianyuan, it will definitely be sent.
"Director Richard is generous, but it is useless, even if I want to take something, it will be bought with money. Zhang Tianyuan said lightly.
"Hahaha, Mr. Zhang is still an upright person, in fact, why bother, this thing costs thousands of dollars, and some even only have one or two hundred yuan, which is not worth a few dollars at all, if you really give money, I don't dare to ask for it." Then, the great director lowered his voice and said: "I know a big boss, who specializes in this antique business, if you really like it, I can get it for you, I guarantee that they are all real objects, don't look at my eyesight, but my friend is a connoisseur." â
"Connoisseur, if you are really an expert, then why are you still deceived by a great director?" Zhang Tianyuan didn't believe this person's words at all.
"Alas, this has nothing to do with him, it's all my fault for being obsessed, when I bought it, I didn't tell him, and I really deserved to be deceived. Richard's expression was a little embarrassed.
"I see, what is the thing you bought? And where is that thing now? How do you know that it is fake and not real?" Zhang Tianyuan asked a few questions in a row. But it boils down to a problem, that is, he wants to know the whole process of Ruijin Richard's being deceived.
Rygm Richard muttered a few words in English to his assistant. Only then did he say: "I have already asked people to pick up the things, and I bought a Tang knife." But then when my friend saw it, he said it was a fake, a modern imitation, but unfortunately I spent 500,000 yuan. â
"500,000? How dare you pay for it? â
"And it's 500,000 dollars!" Ruijin Richard was about to cry when he said it: "Although I made a lot of money, 500,000 dollars is also a lot of money, and the most annoying thing for me is that after being deceived, I had nowhere to reason, and the man said that this thing had been sold, and he didn't say what kind of knife it was." I was willing to pay for it, and I didn't have any bills, so it was useless to sue. â
"You dare to buy something without a bill, I'm convinced. Zhang Tianyuan shook his head with a smile and said.
"Well, it's probably because the ghost has lost his mind. â
"This great director, I'll tell you, if you want to buy something like a sword, don't choose anything that is good in the first place, it must be mostly fake. You must know that most of the casting methods of ancient swords are similar, although the craftsmanship is exquisite, and many of them cannot be cracked even now. I don't know how to get it, but most of the materials are inseparable from copper, iron and steel, and there are few measures that can prevent corrosion. After hundreds or even thousands of years, it can still sell so well today. That's basically impossible, so the better it looks. The more likely it is to be fake. Zhang Tianyuan also felt that this person's attitude was not bad now, and he made him good tea, so he casually pointed out.
Although he didn't study the ancient sword much, he still knew the information in this area, and with his erudition, he was afraid that the things in his mind were not much worse than those in Baidu.
"Is that so? But I've heard that many ancient swords are still as sharp as clay. Rick Richard said.
"This is a very rare phenomenon, but most of the swords should be rusty, even if it is the so-called legendary famous swords, I am afraid that they can't get out of this category, of course, unless many people guess that the aliens are indeed zĂ i, they helped the ancient humans to create that excellent sword, will not rust. Zhang Tianyuan smiled.
"Alas, if I had known this, I wouldn't have been deceived, the sword shape is simple, bright and almost recognizable, and I can't even see the slightest trace of modern craftsmanship, I thought I had met a treasure, so I didn't hesitate to buy it, who knew that I was deceived, alas, I can only say that I deserved it. Ruijin Richard sighed.
"Okay, don't feel sorry for yourself, I'll help you take a good look at it after you bring it, maybe you're lucky, you'll really pick up some great treasure, it's just that your friend is wrong." Zhang Tianyuan smiled, he just wanted to hurry up and leave after finishing this matter, originally he came here to see if he could pick up the leak, but he found that there was nothing decent in this store, so he didn't want to stay longer, but since he promised someone else's things, it was not good to leave like this, so he could only endure it.
It didn't take long for Ruijin Richard's assistant to come back, holding a sword box in his arms, and when the sword box was opened, Zhang Tianyuan was so shocked that he almost stood up, because his earth qi seemed to be crazy and kept running wildly all over his body.
There seemed to be a strange sound in his ears, the sound of swords clashing, the sound of screaming, and the sound of trumpets.
It's a war!
But where did this voice come from, Zhang Tianyuan didn't understand it for a while, so he set his eyes on the sword, a long sword with a very peculiar shape, or a long knife.
"Give the things to Mr. Zhang and let Mr. Zhang take a look. Rygin Richard said to the assistant.
Zhang Tianyuan casually picked up the gloves on the table and put them on, then gently took the sword, and looked at it carefully, he originally wanted to use the word appreciation technique directly, but the problem was that the earth qi in his body was a little chaotic at this time, and before it calmed down, the word recognition technique could not be used, so he could only rely on his own ability to play with it first.
As a student of archaeology, his mastery of historical knowledge also gives him enough ability to identify the authenticity of this knife.
Maybe I won't need the word recognition trick this time, because from the reaction just now, we can know that this sword is not simple, and it is not a fake as Ruijin Richard said. (To be continued......)
