PS: Chapter 2 will be a little later, sorry.

It is indeed impossible, because the answer given by the spirit card is actually Ding Yi, the mysterious Ding Yi!

Up to now, Li Yi has seen a total of three works of this person, but these three paintings have a big jump in style, which is simply appalling!

You must know that any painter who has reached a certain level, in his works, there must be something that is completely his own, no matter how much others imitate it, can not be completely done.

Whether it is an original work or an imitation of someone else's painting, it is impossible to completely erase this trace. Because it is something that is deeply ingrained, something that a painter has worked hard for all his life, a soul imprint that is deeply imprinted on his soul. It can be said that without this thing, he can only be called a painter, a painter, and can never become a "family"!

This kind of soul imprint, Li Yi saw a little in the previous imitation of Qi Baishi's "Pine and Cypress Eagle Picture", and it is clearer in the imitation of the remnant "Pillow Stone in the Mountain", and in this "Guan Yu Capture General", it can be said to be completely explosive, undisguised!

But the point is that the soul imprints contained in these three paintings are completely different, and it is impossible for one person to show them at all!

Even a generation of grandmasters like Qi Baishi, when he imitated Shi Tao, he could only imitate the soul imprints embodied in Shi Tao's paintings vividly, but it was impossible to completely hide his own traces, and this was the most important reason why many of his imitations were sold at prices even higher than Shi Tao's original!

But this Ding Yi showed Li Yi three completely different styles of the most fundamental things as a painter, how is this possible?

Moreover, not only are the soul imprints in the paintings different, but the time span of these three imitations is too long.

Among the three paintings, the earliest and best one is the "Guan Yu Capture General" that he sees today. The time of creation of this painting is the late Qing Dynasty Guangxu period, the style of the work is mature and spicy, according to common sense, it should be the painter's masterpiece in his later years.

And the latest one, is the imitation of Qi Baishi's "Pine and Cypress Eagle", the time is the late 80s of the 20th century, just subtract these two numbers for nearly a hundred years, is he not only lived for hundreds of years, but also was born a genius, can imitate "Guan Yu's Capture of the General" to such a point?

It can't be, it's simply not possible!

Therefore, Li Yi guessed that this Ding Yi is most likely not a person, but a code name, a code name that has been used for at least hundreds of years!

As for why this code name has been used, judging from the current situation, the closest thing is that this is a counterfeiting gang, a counterfeiting gang that has been passed down for more than 100 years and specializes in counterfeiting and counterfeiting famous paintings, and there are many well-known masters among them!

But here's the problem, the spirit card has always seen the essence through the soul, since this Ding is a code name, then it should show that this imitation of the real author, right? But why has it always been Ding Yi?

This is also the reason why Li Yi did not doubt the two paintings before, one is because the imprint of the imitator in those two works is not too clear, and the other is completely made up in time.

Of course, there is another reason that Li Yi himself has never been aware of, and that is his terrifying speed of progress.

Whether he was working in Yanjing, going to Hong Kong to participate in auctions, or even participating in public auctions, he never interrupted the practice of calligraphy for a day. And it was this perseverance, continuous practice, and an indescribable talent that allowed him to vaguely touch a little bit of that mysterious realm not long ago, which is why he had such a deep feeling for this painting, and thus made him discover the difference!

A counterfeiting gang that has been around for at least a hundred years......

Li Yi rubbed his eyebrows, this thing is a little funny......

He decided to call his master, since the painting with this code name appeared so frequently, Zhong Haoqing and the others had no reason not to know, it was because they didn't know how to speak before, but now, Liu Lao's painting just gave him a perfect excuse.

When he was planning how to tell Liu Lao, a sound of footsteps came from the stairs, and a sloppy young man wearing pajamas with a big Pooh the Pooh on them, with fluffy hair and a smell of alcohol, walked downstairs.

"Dad, do you see my toothbrush? Oh, sorry, I didn't see any guests......"

This is the well-known director? People in their thirties still wear cartoon pajamas at home?

Li Yi stood up with a smile and said hello,

"It's Director Liu, right? My name is Li Yi, I live next door, I happened to meet the old man today, so I came over to hang out, it's okay, you clean up your first. ”

The man smiled and said:

"Hello, hello, I'm Liu Shiyuan, you sit down first, I'll clean up, and I'll be fine right away."

Seeing the image of his son, Old Man Liu shook his head helplessly, he took a new toothbrush from the bathroom on the first floor and handed it to Liu Shiyuan.

"Why don't you sleep more? Don't drink so much in the future, look at the way you got drunk last night. ”

"Dad, you can't drink it, the new movie is still a big investment, and that person was a big funder last night! In fact, the worst thing is not me, Lao Jin drank directly on the spot, who have you seen him fight with like this before? ”

Liu Shiyuan took the toothbrush and shook it at Li Yi,

"Lao Jin is the producer of our show...... You sit down first, and I'll come down later. ”

Watching his son Deng Deng Deng run back to the second floor in a few steps, Old Man Liu sat down on the sofa.

"Everyone else looks at the director's scenery, but in fact, they don't know the suffering here! When I first entered the industry, I begged my grandfather and grandmother everywhere to find a film and attract investment...... Now I finally have a little fame, but as soon as the new movie started, investors intervened in various ways, the script was changed again and again, and some of the hard-related actors had to be stuffed into the crew, once filming started, there was no white or black every day......"

Li Yi nodded again and again, everyone is like this, many jobs seem to be beautiful to outsiders, but in fact, the hard work inside can only be truly experienced when you enter the industry. It's like his profession as an appraiser...... Oh, the analogy is wrong, it seems that he really doesn't have much to work on......

"But the child likes it himself, and after more than ten years of hard work, he now has a bit of status, no, such a big-name actor also asks him to give him gifts! By the way, Xiao Li, what do you think of this painting? Really? ”

Li Yi smiled bitterly and said:

"Old man, this painting, it can't be real, because its real work is now in the Palace Museum! But ......"

The old man didn't care about what he said, but he didn't think so in his heart, and when he heard that someone dared to use fake paintings to pretend to be more than 10 million famous paintings to fool his precious son, he was furious.

He didn't notice that Li Yi was still following behind, and directly interrupted:

"Xiao Li, can you be sure?"

The old man's demeanor at this time was a hint of doubt in his suppressed anger. Li Yi's words just now made it very clear that the real work of this painting is in the Forbidden City, so it is better to fake this painting, it is really more terrifying!

Therefore, what he meant by "can you be sure" was not asking Li Yi whether he could really determine the authenticity of the painting, but whether he could be sure whether the authenticity of the painting was in the Forbidden City.

Li Yi didn't hear it, but it didn't matter if he heard it or not, because he could be sure of both things, 100% sure.

So he nodded firmly.

"It's nothing to send a fake painting, it's too much to say that this painting is worth more than 10 million!"

In a word, the old man had already controlled his feelings, because he suddenly remembered that the actor should not be so bold according to reason, maybe he was also deceived?

However, Li Yi's next words surprised him.

"However, old man, although this painting is an imitation painting, its artistic achievements may be higher than the original, I guess it should be imitated by a master painter in the late Qing Dynasty, but who it is, I still have to check the information to determine."

"Even better than the original?"

The old man looked at the painting on the coffee table blankly, and was in a circle for a while, how could this fake be better than the real one?

"Dad, what are you talking about? So speculative? ”

Although Liu Shiyuan, who had cleaned up, still looked a little haggard, he was much stronger than his image just now, and although his handsome little face looked like he lacked some masculinity, his thin lips and slightly sharp eyes made Li Yi feel that this should be a strict person with his own bottom line.

"Hehe, it's okay, Xiao Li is a professional appraiser, this is not right, I asked him to help me see the painting you brought back yesterday."

"Oh, how? This painting was bought by Xiao Ming for 18 million! ”

Old Man Liu smiled bitterly, this matter, he can't say it clearly, you better listen to what Xiao Li has to say.

"Eighteen million...... It's just that judging from the level of the painting, even if the price is not worth it, it will not lose much, but who exactly is its author, although I have a guess, but I still have to check the information to determine. ”

Liu Shi waved his hand generously,

"It's okay, just make sure you're not cheated! Xiao Li, did you just buy your house? ”

"Well, I just bought it a few years ago."

"Just bought it a year ago? It's almost more than 30 million, right? I really didn't see it, it turns out that your appraiser's family background is so strong! ”

Li Yi sighed twice, he didn't know if the other appraisers were strong or not, he was indeed too strong.

"I envy you! Those of us who make movies, not to mention sleeping in the open every day, for a little investment, we have to beg grandpa and grandma everywhere...... Sometimes, I really want to put down my picks and rest for a while, but ......"

"Hehe, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, Director Liu saw the thief eating meat, and I didn't see our appraiser when he opened his eyes! Hey, by the way, what kind of movie is Director Liu going to make? Can you tell us in advance so that I can also enjoy the treatment of some people in the know? ”

"Haha, what's not to do then? Xiao Li, I tell you, we have been preparing for this movie for at least 7 or 8 years, and now the time is finally ripe, and we are ready to do it! The name is tentatively called "Monster Hunt"! "Mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
