Chapter 390. Genuine VS fake

Since a large number of people are looking forward to Ding Qiye taking out his collection for identification, Lin Yi will also go with the flow and take a look at it together. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Originally, for a large-scale event like this, the security measures were very strict in all aspects, not to mention the collections that have been exhibited, either locked in the glass display case, or hung in the place where the infrared alarm defends, as for Ding Qiye's so-called collection, it is placed in the box held by the entourage, the box is a slender rectangle, which is the kind of typical painting box where scrolls and paintings are placed.

Ding Qiye was very courageous, just clapped his hands, and the entourage holding the painting box stepped forward, and the seventh master took out a scroll from it and spread it out on the display table.

Lin Yi looked up, but it was Zhang Daqian's "Blue Pond Red Lotus", but strangely--- Lin Yi did not smell the slightest smell of ink from this peerless painting.

How so? Lin Yi couldn't help but rub his nose. Huang Rong noticed his small movements and asked him, "What's wrong?" ”

Lin Yi said, "It's okay, my nose is itchy." ”

Huang Rong snorted and said, "I don't believe it. ”

Look at the scene again---

"Ah, "Bichi Red Lotus"?" When Zhu Zijun first saw this, he sighed, "If it's genuine, this is a national treasure-level calligraphy and painting." ”

Ding Qiye laughed, "My nephew has good eyesight, this painting is indeed Zhang Daqian's "Blue Pond Red Lotus". As he spoke, he glanced back at Zhu Zijun, then turned his head and introduced Nalan Zhu, Dean Zhan and the others, with a bit of pretentiousness in his words.

"As we all know, Zhang Daqian loves lotus flowers very much, raising lotus, watching lotus, painting lotus, has become an indispensable part of Zhang Daqian's creative career, he once said: 'Painting lotus, the easiest and the most difficult. The easy one is easy to start, and the difficult one is the rare charm. In his eyes, the same is true of beauty, the skin is easy, and the charm is rare. However, Zhang Daqian has a female disciple Feng Bichi, not only beautiful, but also with the teacher to learn painting for many years, temperament is refined, the lotus painting is quite Zhang Daqian's style, so it is deeply appreciated by Daqian. ”

"The reason why he prefers to paint lotus flowers, among other reasons, is that 'Chinese painting focuses on brush and ink, and painting lotus is the basic skill of using pen and ink'. He believes that painting lotus is closely related to calligraphy. Therefore, Zhang Daqian's works not only appear every year, but also constantly introduce new ideas. Form a well-known 'big thousand lotus' at home and abroad. At the age of thirty-five, he painted "The Golden Lotus", which was purchased by the French government; At the 2011 Sotheby's Hong Kong Spring Auction, the "Lotus Lotus" was auctioned at a sky-high price of 191 million Hong Kong dollars. ”

This "Bichi Red Lotus" is a masterpiece made by Zhang Daqian in his later years as a gift to his female disciple Feng Bichi. The master not only painstakingly created this painting at the age of 83, but also brought it to Hong Kong and delivered it to Feng Bichi. It implies that the name of the female disciple is homophonic, which is extremely ingenious, and the affection in this is self-evident; The lotus flower is like the embodiment of beauty, floating in the gentle breeze and the dark fragrance of the lotus leaves, with far-reaching artistic conception. ”

In terms of composition, color and brushwork, this work is very close to the "Splash Color Hook Golden Red Lotus" sold at Christie's Hong Kong for 47.42 million yuan in 2011, the difference is that the size is two square feet smaller, and there is also a touch of hook gold. However, the recipient Feng Bichi is known as Hong Kong's 'all-round female painter', which is quite famous, which is a good plus point, as can be seen in the 2011 Duo Yunxuan auction of 80.5 million yuan Qi Baishi's "Gao Li Millennium", a big plus point is that this painting was made for celebrities, so it eventually surpassed the previous works of the same theme in the auction house; In addition, Feng Bichi's own temperament is beautiful and refined, and the hook gold demon Ye does not match it, so it has not been added. ”

Now that the red face has passed away, only this "Bichi Red Lotus" is left to record the prosperity and affection of the year. The lotus and the leaf are all the bones of the beauty, telling the master's yearning and pursuit of beauty, and the cherishing and nostalgia for this red dust relationship. We can't look up to the master's neck, and we can only see such a masterpiece here, chasing the master's feelings, adding a sigh to the infinite reverie. ”

……

Most of the people who came to participate in the "Shulin Conference" this time were scholars with a little ink in their chests, and the others were businessmen who were keen on literature and art and liked to be vassals and elegant. After all, their knowledge is limited, and where do they really know what to paint, Ding Qiye's words really shocked them. Coupled with the noble status of Ding Qiye's four major collectors, as soon as he finished speaking, everyone around him clapped their hands in unison. Zhu Zijun and Dean Zhan also applauded, as for Nalan Zhu, she just smiled faintly, as if she was not very interested in Ding Qiye's words, and her smile was just out of politeness.

Lao Cao next to Lin Yi had his eyes shining, the corners of his mouth foaming, his face full of admiration, and his palms were almost swollen; For him, the people in front of him are all big stars in the Tibetan world, the heights that he hopes for but cannot reach, and they are all idols of struggle and hard work.

As for Huang Rong, although she couldn't see her expression while wearing a mask, Lin Yi was sure that she was definitely pouting and disdainful.

After the drum was reconciled for a while, Ding Qiye generously invited Dean Zhan to give him an appraisal again according to the prior agreement. After looking at the painting, Dean Zhan shook his head and pointed at Zhu Zijun. Ding Qiye pushed the boat to let this nephew with a good relationship to identify it.

In fact, in Ding Qiye's opinion, this painting must be genuine, because he has invited professors from several universities to read this, and all of them say that it is genuine, so he is already convinced in his heart that this is genuine. The so-called finding Zhu Zijun to identify is just to find a reason for him to behave in front of Nalan Zhu, if this nephew can rely on his appraisal skills to attract Miss Nalan's favor, it will be of great benefit to him Ding Qiye in pairs in the future.

Zhu Zijun has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, after all, at such a Shulin Conference, there are many capable people, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and children of a family like him must find a suitable opportunity if they want to be in the limelight, and this opportunity in front of him is the best.

So after Zhu Zijun was modest, he no longer pushed, but took a magnifying glass and began to look at it carefully. At the beginning, his expression was a little casual, because he also thought that a shrewd person like Ding Qiye must have found someone to appraise it before buying such an expensive painting, so there should be no mistakes. But after looking at it carefully for a while, his face became a little solemn, and his brow furrowed.

After looking at it carefully for a long time, Zhu Zijun stood up, shook his head, and said, "Seventh Master, I'm afraid this painting is a fake." ”

When Lin Yi heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, "I can't see that this Zhu Gongzi really has a bit of eyes." ”

Lin Yi looked at Dean Zhan again, and when he heard Zhu Zijun say this, he also nodded with a smile, seemingly agreeing with Zhu Zijun's words.

And when Ding Qiye heard him say this, although there was a trace of surprise in his eyes, he had the demeanor of a general, and asked with a smile: "Zijun, how could it be?" Those professors all said that the brush, ink habits, rhythm and rhythm of painting, seals, inscriptions, painting style, and brushstrokes are all full of Zhang Daqian, how can it be a fake? ”

Indeed, this painting is a wonderful use of ink, a combination of dry and wet shades, especially the wet brush, the infiltration of ink and the fusion of brush and ink, which perfectly expresses the swirling and depth of lotus branches. In terms of skills, or fine strokes, or thick lines outline, there are places to move the pen heartily and fluently, and there are places to be clumsy strokes, the pen is unbridled, chic and unrestrained. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Zijun couldn't help but praise it, "Whether it is the use of the brush or the creation of the environment, this painting is almost the same as the real thing." The old man Baishi, who is as famous as Zhang Daqian, once said, 'Those who learn from me live, and those who resemble me die.' And that could also be used in this painting. If it weren't for the imitator's heart of copying, the pen power was a little less heavy, and the lines were a little too smooth, I would almost not be able to see it. ”

Zhu Zijun shook his head and said a lot, making Ding Qiye dizzy, but he still turned his head very calmly on the surface and asked Dean Zhan, "Dean Zhan, what do you think?" ”

Dean Zhan nodded slightly, smiling without saying a word.

At this time, Ding Qiye was a little moved, and sighed and said, "I'm ashamed, although I am known as the four great collectors of Jinling, I am still clumsy, I spent a lot of money to buy a fake, and I won't be laughed at when I say it--- what do you want this painting to do, it's better to burn it." ”

is worthy of being a big collector, although he is eye-catching, he is still domineering, and tens of millions of things are said to be burned.

Seeing that Ding Qiye wanted to burn this fake with a fire, Zhu Zijun smiled and said with relief: "Seventh Master, you don't have to be too anxious, although this painting is a fake, it is not worthless." ”

"Oh, how do you say?" Ding Qiye's eyes widened and asked.

"In my opinion, although this painting is a fake, but over the years, there is only one person who has been able to imitate Zhang Daqian's painting so much, almost to the point of being fake, and that is his female apprentice --- Feng Bichi."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. It has the meaning of turning around.

Zhu Zijun enjoyed the feeling of being the focus of everyone, he glanced around, smiled, and then said proudly, "Feng Bichi's favorite painter in his life is his master Zhang Daqian. In her early years, her art career was mainly based on copying and imitation, among which the paintings of her mentor Zhang Daqian were the most. Feng Bichi not only learned a lot about Zhang Daqian's painting style, but also made detailed records of how many seals Zhang Daqian used in his life, which seals were used in his works in a certain year, in which year a certain seal was damaged, and what kind of defects were on it. Therefore, at a very early stage, many collectors were deceived into collecting her forgeries as genuine works, so that many connoisseurs were shocked in front of her. What's more, this painting was originally given to her by Zhang Daqian, and it is even more understandable to think about it day and night, and copy it so far. ”

Hearing this, Ding Qiye's expression was slightly understood, although it was not the work of Zhang Daqian, a master of the first generation, it was the work of his female apprentice, which was not bad, "Oh, so this painting is from Feng Bichi's handwriting?" ”

"That's how it should be." Zhu Zijun nodded confidently and said.

Although the people around don't quite understand, why this painting suddenly changed from Zhang Daqian's work to the work of his female apprentice, male to female, this "sex change" is too fast. But watching the show doesn't tear down the stage, since the bad thing has become a good thing, the big guy will follow suit, "Okay, good!" "Not bad, not bad!" "It's so thrilling, it turns out to be a treasure."

……

Just when the scene eased up a little, Lin Yi suddenly heard a contemptuous laugh of "Huh", and then I saw everyone present looking at him, Lin Yi only realized at this time that this laughter was actually made by Huang Rong.

It seems that this girl is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, so she will deliberately let out this contemptuous laughter.

Looking at Huang Rong, who attracted everyone's attention and seemed to be triumphant, Lin Yi only felt that his face was hot, and he said in his heart: "Miserable, girl, I will be killed by you this time!" (To be continued.) )
