After ending the call with Xu Xu, Zhang Tianyuan came to the living room again, where Liu Dabin was drinking boiled water, and the coffee he had just poured was not touched at all.

"Brother Da Bin doesn't like coffee?"

"I'm not used to the bitter taste, like Chinese medicine. Plain water will do. Liu Dabin smiled bitterly and said.

"Do you like tea?"

"Tea was ok. ”

"Okay, Zhanfei, please make a pot of tea for Brother Dabin, just use the tea I brought with me. Zhang Tianyuan shouted at Zhanfei next to the window.

Zhanfei nodded, and went to make tea, and then Zhang Tianyuan looked at Liu Dabin and said, "Da Hong Pao, the top oolong tea, it tastes very good, you can taste it later." ”

"I've heard of Da Hong Pao, that tea seems to be very expensive. Originally, you helped me this time, and I haven't repaid you much, so you see that you broke the bank. Liu Dabin said embarrassedly.

He is not a stupid person, although there are many things today that he still can't figure out, but basically it is still clear, anyway, there is just one sentence - if there is no Zhang Tianyuan to help him today, he will either have already boarded the plane to the United States at this time, or he will be locked in the bureau, and no matter which one it is, he is reluctant to see it.

What's more, if there was no Zhang Tianyuan, he wouldn't dare to dream of building a serious porcelain capital in Baijiajing, and compete with those foreigners' porcelain.

"Brother Da Bin, it's not interesting to say that. I help you, and I help me. If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't have had the idea of making a porcelain capital here. I can see the arrogance of the foreigner today, bastard, although it is very hateful, but some words are facts, and we can't admit it. These masters of our country. It's not that the level is not good, it's just that I lack the idea of sharing with others, and I treat my works as private work and treasures, alas, this is the situation now. It's rare that you are willing to share your own technology. Actually, if I want to say thank you, I should thank you......"

Zhang Tianyuan has not seen many high-imitation masters or porcelain masters, including those who went to Xijiang Ceramics Town, and even the hidden king who has never met, these people are only for their own selfish interests, and they have never thought of sharing their own skills, they just eat and drink enough, and they don't care about what others do.

At this time, Zhanfei had already soaked the big red robe and brought it over. poured a cup for Zhang Tianyuan and another cup for Liu Dabin.

Liu Dabin obviously doesn't know how to taste tea, but even so, the aroma of the big red robe is still fascinating, and he can't help but take a deep breath and say "good fragrance".

"This is one of the benefits of the big red robe, it's just fragrant. Okay, Zhanfei, you're tired all day. Go to sleep, leave us alone. It's a five-star hotel, and there's security outside, so there's no going to happen like in the movie. Zhang Tianyuan said with a smile after waiting for Zhan Fei to make tea.

"No, you're not tired, and I'm not tired. Zhanfei still went to the window, and then moved a chair to sit. He put a piece of gum in his mouth and chewed it.

Seeing that he was unwilling to rest, Zhang Tianyuan didn't say much, this Zhanfei is this kind of character, and he can't force it, so he just don't care about it.

"Brother Zhang. You are simply exalting me too much, I can say that I have mastered this plum bottle, beauty drunk, Tang Sancai and purple clay pot, and I absolutely believe that I will not lose to anyone. However, the porcelain of the Ming Dynasty, I have just started to study, and now I have a little experience with the blue and white of the Ming Dynasty, but the rest is still not sure of the heat and materials, and I still need a lot of funds to cooperate with the experiment......"

Liu Dabin can be said to be really modest, even if he doesn't know anything about the porcelain of the Ming Dynasty, just by virtue of his proficiency in plum bottles, Tang Sancai, beauty drunk and purple clay pots, he can live a very good life without worrying about food and clothing in this life, but he insists on tossing himself, to study new things, and overcome new problems.

This is the most direct manifestation of a ceramic maniac.

The reason why Zhang Tianyuan admires Liu Dabin is also because of this, only such a person can continue to study technology, and will not be complacent because of a little achievement, and finally he is not enterprising and is unwilling to make any more progress.

It is definitely not possible to invest in such a person, and in the end, you will definitely have to die.

But Liu Dabin is different, he has an almost crazy pursuit of ceramic technology, and this alone is enough for Zhang Tianyuan to spend a lot of money to cultivate and support.

"Don't worry, you can study it slowly, I believe in your ability. Zhang Tianyuan said with a smile: "And in fact, we can also make a lot of money through these things you know now." ”

Liu Dabin was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Brother Zhang, do you mean to let me continue to make high-quality imitations to sell for money? But these things are worthless if they are made too much, art is high-precision, and if there are too many of the same things, it is easy for people to get bored." But then again, if you really want it, I'm already very familiar with these things, as long as you send me a few knowledgeable people, and I'll command them by the side, and the ones will be no worse than the ones I fired myself, and the cost won't be too much......

As far as Liu Dabin is concerned, he has always wanted to repay Zhang Tianyuan in his heart, but he always felt as if he couldn't repay him by doing anything, because what he could do, it seemed that Zhang Tianyuan didn't need it at all, and finally heard Zhang Tianyuan say the above sentence, and he had some ideas.

Zhang Tianyuan smiled and said: "High imitation is only high imitation after all, no matter how good the imitation is, it is also an imitation after all, there are fewer works, it can be sold at a good price, but if there are too many works, it will not be sold, many people collect porcelain, what they value is not its artistic value, what they value is the value of the times, the longer the history, the better they feel, even if the level of modern porcelain is higher than that of ancient porcelain, but it is difficult to compare with the high auction price of ancient porcelain." I do want you to make those things, but don't be copied, you want to be 'genuine'!"

"I don't understand what you mean!" Liu Dabin said after a pause.

"In other words, I want to put your imitation of you as genuine and auction it on the international auction market. Zhang Tianyuan felt that there was no need to hide his true thoughts in front of Liu Dabin, and he could tell him directly what he wanted to do.

"You still lack this money?" Liu Dabin really can't understand, even if it is sold as genuine, the profits created may not be comparable to Zhang Tianyuan's Shenluo Group, since he wants to make a porcelain capital, why do he want to do this kind of thing?

That's not a good thing.

"I'm certainly not short of money. Zhang Tianyuan smiled and said: "I asked you to make these things, not to make money, but to disrupt the international market! Let the auction prices of these ceramics be lowered, so that we can buy the real lost cultural relics at a cheaper price." ”

In fact, Zhang Tianyuan's idea is very simple, that is, let Liu Dabin make a large number of high-imitation porcelain, and then wait for the opportunity to wait for the same type of auction in the international market, if there are similar things, then put these things out, when the same thing appears in an auction in a row, then the price is bound to not be able to increase, in this way, his goal has been achieved.

Even if it arouses the suspicion of international auction houses, it doesn't matter, with the ceramics he made jointly with Liu Dabin, even if it is put together with real ancient porcelain, there is absolutely no difference.

As for the soul of ceramics?

There are a few people who know what the soul is, besides, you are a dignified appraiser, so you casually say that the ceramic does not have the soul of antique porcelain, so it is a fake, and it is strange that people don't beat you.

He is not afraid of cheap, anyway, he is not here to make money, if there are foreign merchants who want to hoard a lot, it is even better.

He understands the thoughts of these people, which is nothing more than to buy these things back, and then break them, thinking that there will be fewer antiques of the same type in the world, and then they can be auctioned for a sky-high price.

However, such an idea can be said to be in Zhang Tianyuan's arms, and it is estimated that in the end, these people who acquired may not even have the strength to cry. Therefore, let Liu Dabin hurry up the time to make more Tang Sancai, beauty drunk, and purple clay pots, which are used as reserves, and put them on the market at a critical time, disrupting the price of ceramics in the international market, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the price of antiques.

The truth that its scarcity is expensive has been common since ancient times, and many people know that the less things exist, the higher the price will naturally be, and with the change of storage, the price will also change differently.

For example, Yuan Qinghua is a thing, its artistic value is high, but in fact, it is more important because there are many people who hype that this thing rarely exists.

Another example is Tang Bohu's paintings, at the beginning, they were continuously auctioned at sky-high prices, but later as Tang Bohu's paintings continued to emerge, the prices were not as exaggerated as before.

What Zhang Tianyuan has to do now is to flood the auction market with a large number of Liu Dabin's high-quality imitations, so as to lower the price of similar ceramics, so that his original idea of recycling these antique cultural toys will be easier to realize.

Originally, Zhang Tianyuan also had this ability, but his ability had two flaws.

One nature is the soul that is spoken, and this is not explained, because it is difficult to explain clearly.

One is that the imitation things are basically brand new and need to be re-olded, but Zhang Tianyuan has no experience in old-fashioned at all, but Liu Dabin is different, in order to study high-quality imitation, he is even very proficient in old-fashioned.

Aging is not a simple process, and the really excellent aging skills can't be tested even with an instrument, let alone with the human eye.

The most primitive method of aging porcelain is to first wipe off the surface with cowhide, a process that lasts from a few weeks to two months.

Then, put the porcelain in the water with alkali for the tea leaves, and boil it for 5-6 hours to remove the "thief light" from the surface.

Finally, the porcelain is rubbed with shoe polish and then buried in the soil, and the surface of the porcelain will "eat" the soil into the porcelain, so that the old feeling is made. (To be continued......)
