This painting is contrary to the light ink painting method used by Chinese painters, focusing on the "red". This strong shift in tone creates a new aesthetic realm, and the whole painting forms a symphony of red, white and black. The painter uses the precious and high-quality cinnabar in his creation, and the red color of the cinnabar is bright and intense but calm and dignified against the background of ink.
The whole painting visually presents a strong red color, showing the artistic conception of the revolutionary leader's poem "Look at the red mountains and the forests are dyed", and also show the specific feelings of that red era.
This is the 20th century "Jinshi School" important landscape painting master, Qi Baishi's disciple Mr. Li Keran's masterpiece "Ten Thousand Mountains Red Everywhere", created in the 60s of the last century.
There is a story behind the origin of this work. It is said that after the founding of the People's Republic of China in the last century, the world had a tendency to emphasize Western painting and light Chinese painting, and some important masters of Chinese painting even had no classes to take in universities.
At that time, realism was popular, and oil painting, which was close to realism, was developing very well, while Chinese painting was criticized and considered to be unable to keep up with the times. Mr. Li Keran was very anxious about this, so he put down the study of figure painting and used landscape painting as a breakthrough to explore a new way.
For this reason, Li Keran, who was in his 50s at the time, carried out four long-term and large-scale travel sketches.
Later, the master accidentally obtained about half a kilogram of Qianlong cinnabar from the Forbidden City, and he used these cinnabar to create a total of seven "Ten Thousand Mountains Are Red".
These seven works are the embodiment of the master's lifelong dedication to the purpose of "passing on the mountains and rivers of the motherland", and are the best evidence that he has carried out bold reforms in Chinese painting, integrated reality and the spirit of the times, and thus climbed the peak of art; It is also the best practice of "the courage of the valuable" and "Chen Yanwu".
The current auction of this painting in the 60s "Ten Thousand Mountains Red Everywhere", is the largest and most refined work among the seven works, which can be called the famous and representative work of Master Li Keran's life.
In the auction market of the parallel earth, this painting has been auctioned for a sky-high price of 300 million soft girl coins five years ago, so it is known as the "most expensive red classic".
Of course, it is surprising that no matter how high the price of this painting is, it has nothing to do with the deceased Master Li and his family.
Master Li went through ups and downs during his lifetime, and was criticized, beaten, and persecuted many times, and suffered countless hardships with his wife. Their daughter, who was in her 20s, was so mutilated that her head was full of gray hair, and one of her legs was almost amputated.
Now that the price of the painting is high, the master can no longer see it, and the endless sadness, pain and torture that the family has endured can no longer be compensated.
It is precisely because Li Yan has the information and knowledge of the parallel earth that he knows how important such a painting is in art and how high its value is.
Of course, as far as Li Yan knows, the painting "Ten Thousand Mountains Are Red" in the parallel world was later lost due to an unexpected earthquake.
So in the face of the same "Red Mountains" in front of him, Li Yan had to shoot it no matter what.
And I don't know what the reason is, Master Li Keran's paintings don't seem to be as hot as the earth in Azure Star, and the valuation is much lower.
The starting price on the big screen was only 30 million Hong Kong dollars. Compared with the 300 million soft girl coins that the earth once auctioned, it is only a dozen!
Li Yan has already thought about it, and now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you can take a picture while it is low, and wait for it to appreciate in the future. In case it really can't rise, it can also be sent to a parallel earth, according to the market in recent years, this painting can easily fetch 4 or 5 billion over there.
So this time, Li Yan reversed his conservatism just now, and after others squeezed toothpaste little by little and called a few mouthfuls of the price, he suddenly raised his card and said calmly: "50 million!" ”
Wow!
The people in the room were taken aback again. You know, starting from 30 million, and now the price has only risen to 38 million, and this buyer has added 12 million all of a sudden!
And it's the young man who just filmed "Jubilant Prairie"!
Such a resolute move, abundant funds, and too young a strange buyer once again attracted the attention of the people in the venue, and many people looked at him again and whispered.
"I wonder if he took it himself, or if he was a representative of some big buyer?"
"Of course, it's a representative sent by the big guys. How could he have so much money at such a young age. ”
"Haha, I don't know if he has any money, but his temperament is good, I don't think he looks like Andy Lau."
"Well, that's right, he doesn't look very handsome, but he is very manly, with Andy Lau's demeanor, elegance and heroism, and style. Of course, he is much younger than Andy Lau. ”
"Although he may not be rich, just looking at this temperament, I think he is so attractive. There are some things that you can't buy with any amount of money. ”
While still discussing, the auction prices rose one after another, and in a blink of an eye, they had reached the level of 70 million. It seems that although the starting price of this painting is low, there are many people who know the goods, and there is no shortage of people who follow the auction.
Li Yan increased the price while observing, and slowly, after the price exceeded 80 million, the number of buyers who followed the price suddenly decreased by half.
The remaining opponents were only a middle-aged man wearing gold wire glasses behind him, and an old man in a black suit in front of him. Song Celadon only talked to Linda occasionally, or made a phone call or two, and had no intention of making a move.
"86 million."
After Li Yan called out this price, the man with gold wire glasses in the back gave up, and the old man in the black suit in the front right was silent for half a minute before he followed the price: "87 million." ”
Seeing that he shouted so reluctantly, Li Yan's heart was relieved, knowing that this painting was stable. As long as you make another blow and add one or two more chips, it is estimated that you can completely repel your opponent.
So he was not in a hurry, and still only added one million: "88 million." ”
The old man in the black suit in the front right was silent for a longer time. And it can be seen that he and several people around him are caught in a tense and long conversation.
The moderator is already making a final call. "No. 166 raised 88 million, is there any buyer who follows the price? 88 million for the first time, 88 million for the second ......"
Li Yansheng smiled on the ground.
Zhou Zhenghuang and Wen Jiayi, who were on the side, gasped silently, and huge waves were churning in their hearts. This guy spent more than 100 million to buy two super mansions two days ago; Now here, he can call out a price of hundreds of millions of dollars when he opens his mouth, and he doesn't even blink his eyes, how strong his funds must be.
Li Yan was waiting for the auctioneer to drop the hammer, but there was a sudden accident at the scene.
"90 million!"
I don't know why, the old man in the black suit suddenly raised his card again at the last moment, and his tone was extremely resolute.
Li Yan was a little surprised and annoyed, and he felt like the fat in his mouth had been snatched away. He doesn't want to grind with the other party like this anymore, he must make another heavy punch and beat him down!
Who wants to fight with me again, I'm honestly welcome!
"98 million!" He was half annoyed and half arrogant and added 8 million in one go.
However, before the words fell, someone raised a sign: "One hundred and eight million!" ”
"Wow!" There was a slight commotion in the room. They didn't expect that the auction for this painting was about to settle down, but suddenly there were waves again, and the battle situation was even more fierce and surprising!
Because, this time it is not the old man in the black suit who is bidding, but a new buyer!
A buyer who had never made a bid before suddenly entered the battle!
Li Yan was even more annoyed by the accident.
Therefore, when the voice of "100 million and 8 million" had not completely submerged, Li Yan immediately gave a new bid in an uproar: "138 million!" ”
At the same time, he stared coldly in the direction of the opponent who had just entered the battlefield.
"Wow!"
The auction house, which had just been shaken by the previous bid, was now like a lake that had been thrown into a boulder, and there was a bigger and more violent reaction!
This price not only reacted so quickly, but also increased by 30 million compared to the bid just now, which shows the courage of the bidder, the strength of determination, and the ruthlessness of the style!
He's determined to get it today!
The people present continued to pay attention to Li Yan. This young, strange, extraordinary temperament and a little cold, fierce style of the man aroused more and more curiosity and speculation.
Who is he and what tycoons, conglomerates, or other forces do he represent behind him?
After the bid of "138 million" came out, Song Celadon finally couldn't help it, and looked back at the bidding opponent who had added 30 million at once.
It turned out that she was the new buyer who had just entered the battle.
As a result, the two gazes met in the air at the same time, and then the two who looked at each other stiffened slightly at the same time, and their eyes were full of shock, surprise, surprise and incredulity.
Song Celadon never expected that he would meet Li Yan here, and he was unintentionally almost cut off his favorite.
And Li Yan never expected that this new player who had just come out would be Song Celadon! Fate seemed to make them meet again in this dramatic way.
The two gazes met and froze in the air, and after staying for about a second or two, the invisible coldness, battle intent, and murderous aura disappeared in an instant. The two smiled at each other.
Song Celadon put down the brand in his hand, and nodded slightly to Li Yan politely, which meant that Li Yan could read it. She is showing humility to Li Yan, meaning, since it is you, then I will not fight with you.
Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief, the expression on his face changed slightly, and he didn't know what it meant.
