Chapter 411: National Strength Determines Aesthetics

ps: Today's first update, ask for monthly pass support.? Come on,.!

Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years. In some cases, it's definitely not just empty words. Half a year ago, Wang Guan was very envious of Yu Feibai's advice from a famous teacher like the rich old man, and he knew many secrets that ordinary people did not know.

In the following time, Wang Guan's appreciation ability also improved by leaps and bounds, and there was an element of special ability. It is undeniable that the guidance of Mr. Qian, Mr. Zhang and others also played a very important role.

Of course, there is also an advance, that is, Wang Guan's own knowledge has also accumulated to a certain extent, and there will be such an enlightenment. After all, striking iron also depends on its own hardness, if everything is dark, Qian Lao and others' plucking is no different from playing the piano to the cow, and it will not have any effect at all.

It's like the relationship between a famous teacher and a senior apprentice, the apprentice is eager to learn, and the famous teacher is happy to give guidance. Otherwise, the disciple is ignorant and doesn't want to work hard, let alone a famous teacher, even a mediocre teacher won't bother to pay attention to you......

In any case, Wang Guan's appreciation of calligraphy and painting is indeed a little low, and now that Zhou Laoken is enthusiastic about his guidance, he is naturally very happy and very grateful.

"My ability to appreciate calligraphy and painting is only in the middle and upper-middle, and my job is to study the source of clothing in the past dynasties."

Zhou Lao said frankly: "And Ling Xi is a big expert in playing porcelain, but the identification of calligraphy and painting is similar to me." If you want to develop in calligraphy and painting, I guess you have to study your own. Of course, if you have the opportunity, I can also introduce you to a few contemporary masters and ask them for advice. ”

"Hehe, let's talk about it when we have a chance." Wang Guan doesn't care. Anyway, he's still young, and he has time to study. Besides, the truth that he can't chew more is clear in his heart.

"Hmm."

Zhou Lao nodded slightly, and no longer dwelled on this matter, but continued to talk about the anecdotes he knew. Of course, it's not just what he's saying, Pi Qiu has also been mixed in the antique shop for more than ten years, and he is also a person with a story, and he interjects a sentence or two from time to time. can also chat with Zhou Lao.

Wang Guan listened with relish on the side, and when he encountered something he didn't understand, he asked for advice......

Time gradually passed, I don't know how long it took, Wang Guan's mobile phone suddenly rang, he took it out and looked at it, and found that it was Qian Lao's call, so he naturally hurriedly answered it.

"Wang Guan, did you ask someone to bring a wheeled cart?" Qian Lao's voice was a little confused.

"Yes, yes, yes...... Money old. Sorry I forgot to tell you. ”

Wang Guan responded again and again. I almost forgot about it, and after apologizing, I hurriedly explained: "Tsinghua lives upstairs, and it's not easy to move up, so I'll leave it for you." ”

"It's okay, it's just your stuff." Qian Lao smiled: "By the way, when do you plan to play until you come back?" ”

"I'm back, here in Zhou Lao." Wang Guan said.

"He's picked another leak!"

At this moment, Zhou Lao interjected beside him: "Qianlong official kiln pastel porcelain bottle." Butterfly play cat print that ......"

"Leaky? Wang Guan, did you get any good things again? Because of the separation of one floor, Qian Lao only heard a few words, but it was enough, and he didn't have to worry to guess the facts.

"It's just a bottle." Wang Guan said with a smile: "Zhou Lao was in a hurry to watch, so he rushed back from Jinmen. Originally, I planned to wait for Zhou Lao to finish reading it, and then send it over to you for tasting. However, Zhou Lao intercepted it and wanted to study it for a while. ”

"Even Yi Zhidu is tempted to intercept it, it must be a rare thing." Qian Lao said with a smile: "It's just right to come back, come over for dinner tonight." By the way, bring something. ”

"Eat together ......"

Wang looked at Zhou Lao, and after seeing him nodding, he smiled and said, "Okay, Zhou Lao agreed, there is no problem." In addition, there is a friend of Tsumen...... Yes, Feibai and Tsinghua did not come back...... Leave them alone? Okay, that's it...... See you later. ”

After putting away the mobile phone, Wang Guan looked back and smiled: "Old Zhou, Old Qian, let us go over now." ”

"Go and go, someone has a treat, why not do it." Zhou Xiao said, put the bottle into the box, and walked out.

"Brother, are you going to visit Qian Lao?"

At the same time, Pi Qiushi asked in a low voice. After receiving an affirmative answer, his face suddenly showed excitement and excitement.

Although Qian Lao has lived in seclusion in the porcelain capital over the years, some young collectors may not know who he is, but these people definitely do not include the older generation of collectors, especially antique dealers who have been mixed in Beijing and Tianjin for more than ten years.

If Pi Qiu is an admirer of Zhou Lao, then he already has reverence for Qian Lao. Thinking that he could see two idols one after another in one day, Pi Qiushi's face was already happy, and he felt more and more that Wang Guan was his lucky star.

"Brother, it's righteous enough, I won't say anything else." Pi Qiushi patted his chest and said, "It's all in my heart." If there is anything in the future, just say hello, absolutely unambiguous. ”

"Brother Pi will see the outside when he says this, and there will definitely be something to ask you for in the future......"

During the chat, the three of them went out and came to the door of Qian Lao's mansion in a circle. After entering, Wang Guan found that Qian Lao was entertaining guests. It was a middle-aged man in his forties, his hair was very neatly combed, and his dress was very exquisite, and the whole person exuded a graceful and elegant temperament.

"Wei Zhuo!" As soon as he entered the living room and saw this person, Zhou Lao seemed to be a little surprised, and said with a smile: "I said why did Ling Xi suddenly have a treat today, it turned out that you came back." ”

"Uncle Zhou, you're here."

The elegant middle-aged man stood up, as if he was the owner of the place, and greeted the guests with a smile.

After some greetings, Zhou Lao introduced: "Wei Zhuo, this is Wang Guan, has Ling Xi mentioned it to you?" ”

"Like thunder, I have heard of the name for a long time, a young and promising connoisseur, and the new owner of the peerless famous piano Jiaowei." Wei Zhuo smiled and took the initiative to come over and shake hands with Wang Guan.

"Jiaoweiqin?" Pi Qiu next to him was stunned, he didn't know about it.

"You've won a prize......"

At the same time, Wang Guan was also a little vague, and he didn't know what to call the person in front of him.

"This is his friend Pi Qiushi, an expert in the Jinmen circle." Zhou Lao continued to introduce.

"Hello Mr. Wei."

At this time, Pi Qiu temporarily let go of his confused mood and greeted him with a smile. With his many years of social experience, he noticed that this Wei Zhuo's identity was probably unusual.

"Hello, hello!" Wei Zhuo had a kind attitude, and after shaking hands with Pi Qiushi, he led a few people to the chair and sat down.

"Wang Guan, this is my son."

At this time, Qian Lao pointed at Wei Zhuo and smiled lightly: "If you have anything that you can't solve in the future, you can ask him for help." ”

For a moment, a look of surprise flashed in Wei Zhuo's eyes. You must know that he understands his father's temper, although it is not disgusted with this kind of relationship, but he will definitely not advocate it. But now he took the initiative to promise, which shows that this young man's status in his father's heart is not light. At least more than he thought......

Wei Zhuo was thoughtful, but his reaction was not slow, and after handing over a business card, he nodded and smiled: "Even if you call me if you have something, as long as you can do it, you will definitely not shirk it." ”

In fact, Wang Guan was also a little surprised, after all, Wei Zhuo and Qian Lao are not the same surname. But when you think about it, it seems that taking the mother's surname is also a custom, and it is not very strange.

After receiving the business card, Wang Guan carefully put it away and thanked him politely.

Qian Lao nodded, and said with a smile: "Yi Zhi, take out the bottle." I have also heard the reputation of the cat butterfly sumo bottle for a long time, but I didn't expect to have the opportunity to see the real thing with my own eyes, but I don't know if the thing is as exquisite as the legend. ”

"Even more beautiful than the legend......"

While speaking, Zhou Lao took out the pastel porcelain vase and gently rested it on the desk.

Under the light, the white-skinned porcelain vase glows with a delicate luster like mutton fat and jade, and the cat and butterfly ornaments on the bottle are even more lifelike, as if they are about to jump out of the bottle, with a strong three-dimensional sense.

"It's unusual."

After all, he is a big connoisseur, Qian Lao can judge the authenticity of things after a little look, and then carefully pick up the porcelain vase, and after carefully studying it for a while, he is full of praise and said: "It is often said that the porcelain of the three generations of official kilns in the Qing Dynasty is the best in Yongzheng." The porcelain of the Qianlong Dynasty is cumbersome and gorgeous, not as thick as Kangxi, and not as beautiful as Yongzheng, and there are signs of decline compared with the previous dynasty. ”

However, the comparison is also a bit biased. After all, the porcelain fired at no expense will not be bad no matter how bad it is. Xu Zhiheng of the Qing Dynasty recorded in "Drinking Liuzhai and Saying Porcelain" that "to Qianlong, it is so exquisite that it is almost more than a miracle." ”

Qian Lao smiled and said: "This sentence is the best interpretation of porcelain in the Qianlong period. Every process is meticulous, meticulous and keep improving. These features can be seen in this pastel porcelain vase. The exquisiteness of the drawing and the control of the heat during firing are almost to the extreme, without the slightest error. ”

"Of course, all the errors have been smashed." Zhou Lao said with a smile: "After all, it is something for Emperor Qianlong's birthday, if it is found faulty, it will be the end of the head falling to the ground, who dares to slack off in the slightest." ”

"Yes."

Qian Lao nodded with a smile, and suddenly asked: "Wang Guan, among the official kiln porcelain of the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi is rich and magnificent, Yongzheng is beautiful and timeless, and Qianlong is cumbersome and gorgeous. What are your thoughts on this? ”

"Perception ......"

Wang Guan groaned, and after a long time, he smiled and said, "I think this has something to do with national strength." ”

"Huh!"

Wei Zhuo was a little surprised, and then talked about porcelain, how did it come to national strength? However, he was also a little more interested and listened carefully. I want to know if Wang Guan is something to say or far-fetched.

"Then you can tell me more about it." Qian Lao said with a smile.

"Generally speaking, the style of the official kiln porcelain of the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty is both consistent and unique. The reason for this is nothing more than the influence of the craftsmanship of the time and the temperament of the emperor. ”

Wang Guan analyzed: "Kangxi has a generous personality and likes things that are very angry; Yongzheng has a lonely and arrogant temperament, which is the so-called lonely self-appreciation, and naturally prefers elegant and beautiful things. As for Qianlong, he likes the bustling, luxurious and beautiful style. Therefore, the porcelain of that period has the characteristics of gorgeous and prosperous, not only exquisite and novel, but also extremely elegant and beautiful. ”

"But I think that whether it is the craftsmanship or the emperor's temperament, it is only part of the reason. What really plays a leading role is the national strength, and the national strength determines the aesthetic ......"
