Chapter 1131: Relic Shop
Huo Jun thought for a moment, "I know." Pen~Fun~ Pavilion www.biquge.info What you said was that a few years ago, "The Female Historian" was taken out of the secret room and exhibited for a short time, but I heard that there was no public announcement, only well-informed people quietly came to see it, and my father never saw it! ”
"I see!" Tang Yi looked at the Huaxia exhibition hall again, "Here, I'm afraid that only two or three thousand pieces can be displayed, and it is said that the British Museum has more than 20,000 pieces of Chinese cultural relics." In other words, most of them are kept in closed hiatuses. ”
Huo Jun nodded, "That's right." Those things, if you want to see them, have to get a license. Like, Earl White is eligible to apply! ”
"What can he apply for? It was only for him to see it himself, and it was impossible to bring us in. Wen Jia said.
"That's right." Huo Jun said with a smile, "I've come to see the things in the Huaxia exhibition hall many times. It's all good stuff if it's fake. Outsiders are all watching the excitement, I came to learn, and I really benefited a lot. ”
In the antique industry, if you want to improve your eyesight, there are three foundations that are essential, one is the theoretical foundation, such as history, materials, craftsmanship, etc.; One is to see a lot of the real thing; Again, there are a lot of fakes to look at.
The easiest way to see the real thing is to go to the museum, because the degree of authenticity is the highest. Huo Jun is still very studious, and studious and hard work are naturally indispensable for improving his eyesight.
Antiques and artifacts are not exactly the same thing, though. Since it is "play", the most important meaning is ancient art. Therefore, the artistic value determines the market value of an antique to a large extent.
Some people don't understand, for example, there is a thing that is very scarce and very old, how can it not be compared to some things in the Ming and Qing dynasties that are closest to the present? Some things are very precious, such as Hetian jade, gold, and jewelry, how can they not compare to a small bowl made of fine clay? In this, the role of artistic value is greater than the value of cultural relics and raw materials.
Since art is involved, the level of eyesight and perception of art are sometimes very talented. Hard work alone is not a substitute.
Hard work can improve you to a certain level, but you may not be able to reach a high peak level.
Edison famously said that many people have heard since childhood: genius is 99 percent perspiration and 1 percent inspiration. This is half a sentence, and there is another sentence at the end of the original text: And this one percent of inspiration is precisely the most important. As a result, when it was transmitted to Huaxia, the second half of the sentence was deleted after the translation.
There are some things that can be obtained through unremitting efforts, such as the oil line of the oil seller over copper money, without him, only familiar with it. But there are also some things, no matter how crazy you try, you may not be able to achieve high results.
Huo Jun is still very talented and works hard, so he can be regarded as a master.
The three of them came out of the Huaxia exhibition hall and went to several other main exhibition halls to take a look, and did not leave until the museum was about to close.
The antique cultural relics lost abroad in China have different theories, and the scattered overseas folk are not easy to count. According to the United Nations, it is more than 1.6 million pieces, which are collected by dozens of museums around the world. Among them, the Great Britain Museum has the largest collection of Chinese cultural relics.
Tang Yi came out of the museum with a heavy heart. However, heaviness is heaviness, but it alleviates some emotional unhappiness. After all, he is no longer the Tang Yi he was at the beginning, and the divine sense of the head of Tang is also playing a role.
Huo Jun saw that it was evening, so he proposed to invite the two of them to dinner. Rice always has to be eaten, just ate at a Huaxia restaurant at noon, Tang Yi and Wen Jia have been eating Western food in the past few days, Huo Jun proposed to go to a Mediterranean restaurant.
This Mediterranean restaurant is near a theater and there is a large meat market nearby, so there are quite a few restaurants next to it. Entering this Mediterranean restaurant, Huo Jun proposed to order a seafood platter and a dish of smoked and grilled mutton. Tang Yi and Wen Jia came for the first time, but they just ordered staple food and dessert.
As soon as this dish came up, Tang Yixin said that it was fortunate that he didn't order other dishes, because the portion was too large. This seafood platter features salmon, prawns, other fish and shellfish, and many kinds of vegetables. The lamb is also very generous, and the smoked meat is more tender than the pure fire. Just these two dishes, the three of them can't finish it at all.
Huo Jun's state at this time is similar to that of the two on the plane. Some people are like this, they seem to be very cold in front of unfamiliar people, but in front of acquaintances, they will be a lot more casual, and even a little cute.
After eating and drinking, Wen Jia simply asked, "I said, how did you get your hands on the pair of Liangzhu culture tapers on the plane?" ”
Huo Jun listened, "This is what Mr. Tang can see, right?" ”
"You don't care who sees it, where did you get it?"
Huo Jun smiled, "To tell you the truth, I bought it from the cultural relics store in Huaxia!" And it's a leak, 'a pair of chopsticks' only cost 10,000 yuan! ”
"The artifact store can also pick up leaks?" Wen Jia was surprised.
Tang Yi also said, "You want to say that twenty years ago, the cultural relics store was able to pick up the leaks, didn't there be experts in the cultural relics store at that time who found that Song paintings were sold as imitations?" Over the years, the cultural relics store has been full of things from the Republic of China, not to mention missing them, and the probability of encountering good things is not high. ”
Cultural relics shops are considered "state-run" antique shops, and generally speaking, it is impossible to sell rare and heavy objects, so the probability of missing them is naturally not high.
"At first, I thought so. But after taking these two tapers, I really changed my mind. You see, artifact shops are generally accumulated for decades, and there are many things! Because there are a lot of things, it's easy to be a hundred dense! Therefore, although it is not easy to pick up leaks, it is not impossible. Huo Jun said, "What's more, now connoisseurs have a preconceived impression when they go to antique shops, and they feel that it is not easy to pick up leaks, so they are not too careful, which also makes it easier to keep leaks!" ”
He really made some sense of what he said, Tang Yi nodded, "Where did you get this from the cultural relics store?" Surely it wasn't open-minded, right? ”
"You're right, just put it like this, no matter how careful you are, someone will find out." Huo Jun nodded, "This is a cultural relics store in a small city in the south, at that time, I finished talking about business and went with a little tourism." This thing was placed with a pile of jade pieces of the Republic of China, and it was also pasted to the side of the glass cabinet. Originally, it was covered with silver, and there was a dragon and a phoenix on the head, and it was really made into the style of a pair of chopsticks. There is also a layer on the tip, and a layer is also wrapped in the middle, and the silver is covered to block the ornamentation. I look at the silver, it looks like the craftsmanship of the Republic of China. ”
"No wonder. I'm afraid it will be regarded as an ordinary silver-clad jade in the Republic of China. After Tang Yi finished speaking, he suddenly frowned, "Isn't it right?" ”
