Wu Tianyuan returned to the capital, and now Liu Meizi has found her own way, and she can succeed if she keeps working hard, and the next step is to help prepare materials. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info For example, spices, a trip to Vietnam, and ikebana, domestic bonsai and strange stones come in handy.

"Liu Huasheng is the main event, and he has finally become a master of the tea ceremony, just a few sets of antique tea sets are not enough!"

"By the way, didn't you say last time that Xu Sihai's purple clay pot was going to be shot? He must have an old pot there that has been raised for many years, talk to him. ”

Wu Tianyuan had an idea, he wanted to occupy Japan through Liu Huasheng Tianyuantang tea and tea set brand, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and the tea ceremony master can win without a top tea set?

"Director Wu, I have admired my name for a long time, and I have fate to meet today!"

Wu Tianyuan met Xu Sihai, the first person to collect purple clay pots in China, under the introduction of Ma Tengfei, and came to his purple sand museum in Shanghai.

"I have more than 600 pots here, more than 300 old pots, and I collect new pots every year, all of which are masterpieces of national craftsmen, which are also considered investments."

Xu Sihai was very enthusiastic, and began to visit the museum with two people, introducing as he walked: "Zisha pots are divided into three main categories according to the shape of the vessels: flowers, light vessels and tendon vessels. Among them, the representative figures of flowers include Wang Yinxian, Zhu Kexin, Jiang Rong, He Daohong, etc.; the tendon capsule is Wang Yinchun; The main representative of the light device is Gu Jingzhou. ”

Wu Tianyuan said with a smile: "Master Gu's pot is my first pot of gold, but unfortunately there has been no fate since then, so I have to study it well today." ”

"In fact, the so-called light device is without any fancy patterns, all relying on shapes and lines to show the art of purple sand. It is with these geometric figures and lines that Gu Jingzhou has brought the art of purple sand into full play. An excellent purple clay pot must be good in "mud, shape, work, style and skill". ”

With his contacts with the calligraphy and painting circles, Gu Jingzhou gradually focused on the production of light element ware, and finally established his personal style with geometric pots, and found his own artistic creation direction. He also cooperated with the famous painter Han Meilin and Professor Zhang Shouzhi of the Central Academy of Arts and Crafts to make pots, injecting modern aesthetic concepts into the development of sand pots and creating a new artistic conception of purple sand tea pot shapes. ”

Xu Sihai said excitedly: "I have dozens of pots here, the representative works are: partridge, monk's hat, stone scoop, Han Duo, cow cover lotus seeds, Tibetan six horns, for the spring pot, Gongzhi father pot, seat has Lanyan pot, Linghua pot, high waist line beam pot, high void flat pot, back pattern bamboo teapot, melon pear pot, Junyu pot, cloud shoulder Ruyi pot, etc., among which the cow cover lotus seed, partridge pot won the national gold medal, monk hat, Jinglan pot won the national silver medal, and there are many masterpieces collected by collectors and museums at home and abroad. ”

"Look at this cow-covered lotus seed pot, with a straight belly and circled feet, a wide mouth and lips, a short curved stream, and a ring-shaped handle. The flat cover, the wide-band arched button is like a bull's nose, hence the name. The whole body exudes a solid and energetic spirit, which runs through in one breath, and the hand is rolled up as vividly as an oxtail that is ready to be raised at any time. ”

"This monk's hat pot is equilateral and equilateral, so it requires solid and profound pottery skills and profound cultural connotation in the process of diagonal connection of clay pieces. The connection of each part is natural and appropriate, harmonious and upright, and the rhythm is compact and integrated in shape. ”

"This stone scoop pot is one of my favorites, the body and lid button are triangular, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with a sense of stability. The shape is not round or square, and the front and back are correspondingly interesting. Although the shape is simple, it can be seen in the simplicity. ”

Wu Tianyuan picked up the stone scoop pot, as if he was in a different world, recalling that when he first debuted two years ago, he knocked out the Xie family with a stone scoop pot, and smiled.

Three years ago, Gu Jingzhou and Tang Yun cooperated with the stone scoop pot at the first price of 3.15 million yuan, but only a year and a half later, Gu Jingzhou and Wu Hufan's stone scoop pot at the same time was auctioned for 12.32 million yuan, setting a world record for the auction of purple clay pots.

Ma Tengfei said helplessly: "Lao Xu played early, cheap and leaked, I only started to play pots in the past few years, one is more expensive than the other!" ”

In the 11-year Baoli Autumn Auction, Gu Jingzhou raised the pot group, a total of 11 pieces, and sold for 17,825,000.

In 12 years, Han Haichun auctioned Gu Jingzhou's large wall pot and sold for 12,880,000 yuan.

10 years Jiadechun auction, Gu Jingzhou, Wu Hufan calligraphy and painting, Xiangmingshi scoop pot sold for 12,320,000 yuan.

In 11 years, Jiadechun auctioned Gu Jingzhou and Han Meilin to sell the Liang Pan pot for 11,500,000 yuan.

Looking at the record of exceeding 10 million at random, Ma Tengfei joked: "Even I can't afford to play!" ”

The three of them walked to the middle of the display cabinet and looked at a pot, Shao Tycoon, the treasure of the town hall, the sky-high price of 120 million pots!

"Shao Daheng, who enjoyed a good reputation when he was a teenager, is a generation of master craftsmen after Chen Mingyuan. His pots are known for their fluttering, especially in the production of concise shapes, such as balls, antiques and other pots, simple and solemn, and the momentum is extraordinary. During the Qing Dynasty, his works were regarded as treasures by tea lovers and collectors, and it is said that "a pot of gold is almost unobtainable". At present, "Fish Dragon Pot" and "Dragon Head Bundle of Bamboo Pots" are in the collection of Nanjing Museum. ”

"Shao Daheng has a withdrawn and noble temperament, and if it is not worth his poverty, he can't get a pot of gold. Folklore has it that he was a pockmarked man who never followed the crowd and attached himself to power. The rigorous attitude towards life has created Shao Daheng's personality. Gu Jingzhou admired it very much, believing that in the five hundred years after the Qing Jiadao, there was no surpass. ”

Xu Sihai said emotionally: "The real products of the tycoon are particularly rare, Gu Jingzhou highly respects them, and he selected seven works of the tycoon in the book "Yixing Zisha Treasure", except for one that is set to be examined, the remaining six genuine products, only two of the prints are consistent, indicating that the tycoon will have different prints. This pot mud tire, construction method, rational interest, breath in line with the tycoon's style, not ordinary potters can do, and many times published in Taiwan purple sand monographs, belongs to the orderly circulation of purple sand famous products, precious and abnormal. ”

"The tycoon only wanted to imitate Master Gu, but he couldn't do it, and in the end he had to sigh at the "tea". It also took me a few years to get this pot, and it was the love of my life! ”

When Wu Tianyuan heard this, he sighed secretly, it seems that this tycoon pot himself is out of play! Everyone is the love of their lives, so they can only settle for the next best thing and find some Gu Jingzhou's pot to start.

The three of them sat down to drink tea, and Xu Sihai brought several pots of shape, brewing various tea leaves, and introduced: "The purple clay pots seen on the market can be roughly divided into two categories. One is an inferior pot without any collection value, and the other is a purple clay pot with collection value. (To be continued.) )
